Indicated for use in the topical treatment of mild to moderate acne vulgaris. Benzoyl Peroxide Gel 5% may be used as an adjunct in acne treatment regimens including antibiotics, retinoic acid products, and sulfur/salicylic acid containing preparations.
The exact method of action of benzoyl peroxide in acne vulgaris is not known. Benzoyl peroxide is an antibacterial agent with demonstrated activity against Propionibacterium acnes. This action, combined with the mild keratolytic effect of benzoyl peroxide is believed to be responsible for its usefulness in acne. Benzoyl peroxide is absorbed by the skin where it is metabolized to benzoic acid and excreted as benzoate in the urine.
Benzoyl peroxide is known to dermatologists as the gold standard of topical acne treatments. When applied to your acne prone skin, hether as a pimples cream, gel or lotion, it breaks down into hydrogen peroxide and benzoic acid. It is the hydrogen peroxide that is believed to be active in fighting acne. Benzoyl peroxide kills the Propionibacterium acnes bacteria that infects blackheads and whiteheads and turns them into pimples. One advantage over other antibiotics is that bacteria don�t develop a resistance to benzoyl peroxide. It also might have some effect in clearing blocked pores.
10% benzoyl peroxide in a hydroalcoholic gel base formulated with alcohol (20%, denatured with tert-butyl alcohol and denatonium benzoate), citric acid, hypromellose, laureth-12, magnesium aluminum silicate, and purified water.

Tim McGraw Book Of John from the album "Two Lanes of Freedom".
We were sittin' round the supper table and the buzz of the frigidaire
Was the only sound 'til momma laid down, a book she found upstairs
It was covered in dust in the back of the closet,
Goodwill box we almost tossed it out
We could have lost all those memories
There was a picture of mama in the pouring rain
Ticket stubs to a Braves game
Silver star and a baggage claim from Hanoi, Vietnam
There was a picture of him callin' on grandpa
Leather skin from a baseball
We laughed and cried, told stories all night long
From the book of John
Now the pot of coffee's almost gone, as we turn another page
We're climbing on him like a Jungle Jim, watching his hair turn gray
All the Polaroids are just reminders,
You can't hold life in a three ring binder
We flipped on through 'em anyway
There's a picture at his sister taken in July
On the steps of the church pulling out his tie
Hair's still wet from gettin' baptized, the brand new blue suit on
An old set of keys to his Chevrolet
A crumpled up receipt for a wedding ring
We watched ourselves grow up there in his arms
In the book of John
That sun came up, we were wide awake
Head to toe in black and gray
Long black Lincoln waiting down the drive
He was father, son, husband and friend
I still flip through it every now and then
When I need just a few words of advice
It's almost like he's not really gone
And I know one day I'll be passin' on
The book of John

Managers have a number of opportunities to improve environmental conditions after design and construction phases of road projects. As roads are built and used, new and unforeseen effects often appear. Some of these effects can be addressed during ongoing maintenance operations on the roadbed and roadside.
This chapter discusses opportunities for ameliorating the effects of roads. It begins with a discussion of mitigating effects organized by scales of administrative organization; the largest scale pertains to national or regional perspectives, the medium scale includes state or highway corridor planning, and the smallest or finest scale applies to the decisions and opportunities associated with individual transportation projects. The chapter ends with a section on opportunities for increased environmental stewardship during routine maintenance operations after construction.
At the national and regional scales, opportunities for ameliorating the environmental effects of transportation come in the form of broad public policy for governmental agencies. Environmental issues are often treated as a permitting issue rather than a dimension of project design. Environmental regulations and permits are intended to protect certain types of natural resources, such as wetlands or threatened and endangered species, but this system does not always promote the best, most comprehensive treatment of environmental issues. Actions at the federal level can help to improve the process in the following ways:
Provide policy, guidance, and funding for transportation design and decision making that take ecological processes into account.
Expand the knowledge base for assessing potential effects of transportation activities through nationally funded research projects.
Encourage cross-disciplinary dialogue between engineers, ecologists, and other environmental professionals to raise mutual awareness of each other's expertise, needs, and challenges.

What is a summary of "Straw Into Gold" by Sandra Cisneros?
1 Answer | Add Yours
In Sandra Cisneros' autobiographical short story she explores the advantages of overcoming "impossible" obstacles. Cisneros discusses a number of different obstacles that she has overcome in her life, ranging from being asked to make tortillas at a dinner party, a task she has never learned or performed, to overcoming cultural expectations, both in her own mind and in her family. Cisneros explores the difficulties of overcoming obstacles throughout her life, recognizing that obstacles come in a variety of forms, including poverty, transience, and self-doubt. The story explores the difficulties that she has faced during her life, but the focus is on the lessons, knowledge, and confidence that emerged from her conquering her fears and taking on the obstacles, emerging ready for the next obstacle to appear.

Crop prospects
There's nothing wrong with the quality of the crop, said Dick Okray, co-owner of Okray Family Farms Inc., Plover, Wis.
"Six months ago, we were worried the crop would be somewhat unmanageable and difficult to get through because of the sheer volume and also the size profile. There were a lot of large potatoes," he said.
"We were going to try to engage retailers to do more promotions on large sizes and a value proposition of potatoes in general," Okray said.
And, he said, he has seen results.
"What has happened since then is exactly what we had hoped for," he said. "I think the lower retail price point is helping to move this crop in an orderly manner in the market. Everybody, aside from the grower, the retailer is still doing well with promotions."
The down side, Okray said, is that growers likely are struggling to break even.
Colorado felt the crush of too many spuds, as well, said Jim Ehrlich, executive director of the Monte Vista-based Colorado Potato Administrative Committee.
"Colorado has too much supply, although our shipments to date have been pretty good and we're doing a good job of managing what we have," he said.
"Acreage was down by 1,000, but we still had too many potatoes."
Growers likely will scale back production, he said.
Canadian growers are feeling the pressure, as well, even though production there in the last year was down by about 2%, said Greg Donald, general manager of the Charlottetown-based Prince Edward Island Potato Board.
"The fact is we're in the North American, in fact, global, marketplace. I think it's probably better to look at it from that perspective," he said.
"Whether it's a certain region in Canada or in the U.S., it has an impact on all the market we compete in."

The bottom looks rotted. If it is not sound, cut it where the flesh is still green. Allow it to callous. Likely nothing will happen until spring. When you plant it, do not water. No roots, no water. Keep it in bright but not direct light. Once roots grow, resume watering. This plant has been kept in light too dim. |

thanks for the help as its winter here it will have to wait a bit to root again thanks, hopefully i can get it right next winter, are they easy to root? |
- Posted by Dzitmoidonc 6 (My Page) on Sat, Jun 30, 12 at 7:37
They are too easy to root. All they ask for is bright light and warm temps. The aeroles also put out copious amounts of roots. This is a pic of the one here. As you can see, roots erupt from everywhere, and it is rooting for support, etc. into the ceiling. The round shape is because there is little light up there, but it continues to search for the sun. One important component of care for jungle cacti is air movement. Without some kind of fan running, air in a normal home is quite still. This promotes fungal infections. So along with warm moist conditions, I put air movement as important as water, etc. |

Your soil looks like it has a lot of clay in it. I would lighten it up with lots of humous, wood chips perlite. It needs drainage |
- Posted by greenman28 NorCal 7b/8a (My Page) on Sat, Jun 30, 12 at 12:32
The soil does look like mud - from the backyard. That right there is most likely why it is in such awful shape now. I'd say it's a goner, but you can always try. I recommend a fast-draining mix of conifer bark - not woodchips - perlite, and some sort of other grit (turface, pumice, scoria, et cetera). Josh |

Abish: Mother of Faith (Paperback)
by K.C. Grant
Product Description
The people of the Covenant have abandoned all weapons of war and have buried their swords deep in the earth. One thousand five Anti-Nephi-Lehies will die because of this valiant pacifist act. And even though an equal number of warring Lamanites will convert to the gospel of Christ after witnessing the faith of the martyrs, Abish will struggle over her husband's death for decades to come — their two children a daily reminder of Jared, the man she loved.
Although she perseveres, raising Jarum and Miriam on her own, Abish battles to embrace forgiveness — since each day she must confront some of the same people who took her husband's life. As Abish's unsettled feelings continue, unrest among the Lamanites mounts with the threat of war becoming a nearly constant companion to Abish and her children — leading her son, Jarum, to a heroic decision.
Will this mother be able to find love again even while she tries to rekindle the strong faith she once had? Will her son be safe in his new life as a warrior for Helaman? Talented author K. C. Grant paints a compelling and inspiring work of fiction that highlights the real story of the Book of Mormon — the testimony that Christ the Savior came for all people and that faith in Him can overcome all fear.

Chapter 1
Land of Ishmael
87 bc
Abish pulled back the worn leather flap and stepped out of the tent.
Tendrils of fog hung thick on the ancient trees that rose above her and blocked out the early morning's light. The mist was so thick that it blanketed her body and left her feeling chilled. Not even her waist-length hair or thick leather tunic could keep her warm from such a fog, and she shivered. Rubbing her neck, stiff from hours of crouching over, she walked a few paces toward a nearby precipice. As she scanned the valley below, Abish could see where the sun was already burning away the haze near the river. Soon morning would come, bringing with it a new start. And new challenges to face.
A figure emerged from behind her, and Abish managed a weary smile for her dearest friend. Teara's countenance was serious as she joined Abish: her soft brown eyes were clouded with fatigue, and her shoulder-length black hair, still damp with perspiration, clung to the sides of her oval face. They stood quietly for a while, aware of the many unspoken words that rested between them.
Abish was the first to breach the silence. "I should have sent you home hours ago. I had no idea we would be with her this long."
Teara crossed her arms across her chest with a defiance that was in direct contrast to her tiny frame. "When I became your apprentice last year, I accepted that there would be many long nights like this. But we did well—and now a new life has entered the world."
"Yes," Abish said softly. "A son. She is very fortunate to be so blessed."
When Abish stopped abruptly, Teara said, "Your time will come."
"Perhaps. But for now, it's their time to celebrate." Abish turned toward the tent. Now a stream of light had broken through the thick canopy and cast a hazy glow where she was looking. Taking a deep breath, she sighed. "I'd better return and make sure they will be well enough off."
"Let me do it," Teara pleaded. "You're exhausted. You should go home."
"No. It's my responsibility. You go." As Teara shrugged and turned, Abish added a quick, though heartfelt, "Thank you."
She allowed herself to hesitate at the tent's opening for just a moment. As Abish reentered, her eyes adjusted to where she could see that the young man was still kneeling on the ground, hovering over his wife and the small bundle at her side. He looked up when she entered and, sensing her reticence to interrupt this precious moment, bade her forward with a nod of his head.
Abish went to him and whispered, "If you'd rather be alone, I'll understand. I just wanted to make sure your wife was well enough for me to leave."
Now the young woman opened her eyes and with an almost heavenly expression shook her head. "Oh no! We couldn't imagine you not being here to share our joy! After all, it's because of you that we have him."
Abish followed the woman's gaze down to the sleeping form and watched with amazement as the baby pursed his lips as if he were already imagining his next meal. She laughed softly and then felt the familiar tug on her heart. The father looked so proud. After all, his wife had given him a child . . . an heir to receive the birthright now that they were part of the covenant people.
"I should check—" Abish glanced quickly at the husband, aware of the delicacy of the situation. "I need to know if things are progressing as they should."
The man kissed his wife quietly on the cheek and left the tent. Another hour passed while Abish cleaned up the small tent and gave instructions for cleansing and purification. As long as the woman's body did not take on a heat sickness in the next few days, she would make a quick recovery.
Fatigue settled on Abish and lulled her to only a half awareness of her surroundings. At some point, the woman's husband had returned and he was talking to her.
". . . Naomi is still my responsibility. I'll do my best to care for her and my son. Thank you again for everything you've done."
Stepping from the tent, Abish found that the day had burst into its full glory, and now she could not help but leave some of her longing behind and smile. She could hear the commotion of the city around her as it awakened. Leaving the small tent community, which had sprung up almost overnight around the established city due to the influx of immigrants from neighboring areas, Abish walked back through the central market. She was still amazed at how Ishmael had changed in these few short years that had passed since the Day of Conversion. She looked around at the bustle of people going about their day, already filling the north end of the marketplace. Though the palace and its impressive stone wall were the most prominent features in the area, dozens of communities had already spread out from this central plaza, keeping it not only the economic but also the social focal point of Ishmael.
Her return home took her first down the Street of the Vendors, where merchants were arranging their wares like a twenty-square board on the blanketed ground. There had been a good early harvest that would hopefully support Ishmael's swelling numbers, especially as the dry season approached. Perhaps hunger could be staved off another year.
As she walked along, she caught a whiff of something that reminded her of her own hunger. The meager offering of manioc and dried fruit she'd been given that morning was far from sustaining, but she knew that the couple had given her all they had. Nearby, a woman was browning some maize cakes on a griddle. Knowing she had a measure of copper that a more established supplicant had given her the day before, Abish couldn't resist purchasing a few. As she savored the hearty texture of the cake and the piquant aftertaste of the lime with which it was flavored, Abish suddenly groaned—not from the satisfaction of a full belly, however. It was because she'd realized that while she had been busy with her work last night, she hadn't left any evening meal prepared at home. She changed her course of direction, hoping a quick apology could stave off her feelings of guilt.
At the Street of the Artisans there was little time to admire the works of jade, obsidian, pottery, and bone. Instead, she continued until she came to the far end of the square. As she smelled the familiar combination of cooling steel and human sweat, her heart quickened as it always did. The smithy was always dark enough that it took her eyes a few moments to adjust. When they did, she saw what she had been looking for.
There he was.
Jared sat on a wooden bench, pumping the bellows for the smelting oven with his foot. With his back to her, she could admire his thick dark hair, which hung down to his shoulders again, as was the fashion. Because of the heat, he wore just a leather apron strapped around his neck, his back bare down to a soot-covered linen girdle. Abish couldn't help but stand there and watch his muscles flex as he worked.
"Ahem," she interrupted and then continued her well-rehearsed part. "I do not have much time and need a service from you." She held up her empty hand to mime her role. "This stone needs to be set. Can you do it or are you just . . . well, do you just . . ."
"Tend to the bellows?" came the sarcastic reply. But when Jared turned around, the glint in his eyes belied his supposed words of disapproval. "Stand still," he spoke off script, "and I'll show you just what I can do."
Abish laughed as he came toward her, scarcely noticing the uneven gait that his crooked legs caused. As his arms sought to embrace her, she playfully pushed him away. "You didn't finish your part right!"
"I couldn't help it." He shrugged. "My wife standing in the doorway was too tempting a sight."
When her lips were free, she chuckled. "Then I forgive you."
For a moment Jared's eyes narrowed. "And I forgive you."
Abish knew to what he referred. "I'm sorry. I forgot to send word. And I can't imagine what you found to eat for dinner last night."
"I managed."
"Am I really forgiven?" she ventured.
"Kiss me again and I think that will help me know for sure."
She obliged. And then, with a weary sigh, she walked back with him over to his bench where she settled on his lap. "It was another long night. Teara and I just barely parted."
His face grew concerned and he asked, "Something you need to talk about?"
Abish shrugged, not wanting to speak of babies—or sons—right now. So she changed the topic. "I promise when you come home tonight I'll have your favorite meal waiting: spicy venison and honey squash. I'll even make some coconut sweets."
"Ah," he groaned with delight. "You are forgiven! I shouldn't be too late. I would be even earlier if some of the council members weren't so full of hot air!" He pumped the bellows as if to demonstrate.
Abish frowned. Jared had been to a lot of these meetings lately. "Are the rumors true then?"
"I'm afraid so. Apparently the Amalekites and Amulonites have decided that it's better to hate us than waste energy hating each other. If enough of our people can be united to their cause, they might come against us."
"Our people? Now that we are called Anti-Nephi-Lehies, it's hard to see them that way." Abish walked across the room away from the intensifying heat of the ovens. "To me, they're just Lamanites."
Jared frowned slightly. "When these plowshares are completed I shouldn't have any more large orders for a while. I'll be home with you more."
"Teara's always telling me I should be more optimistic. So I'll try. Perhaps this war talk will be good for business." She looked at all of the unsold swords sitting in the corner. "It's ironic, really. The sad truth that both of us could be busier because of it."
Abish couldn't ignore the disappointed look that often crossed Jared's face at the mention of her work, causing her own countenance to droop.
"Hmmm." Jared's face changed to a look of concern. "I think that long night is taking its toll. You look drained. Go home. I'll see you tonight."
Abish agreed, knowing some problems could not be solved in a day.

This was a great follow-up to the first book, but I could have read it alone and still found it interesting. I liked seeing Abish as a mother and seeing what the other mothers of the stripling warriors could've been like as well.

Stay & Play
All Emily McCall wanted was a place to get out and escape with her two little girls. But she couldn't find anywhere that was as friendly to adults as it was to kids.
"Obviously taking kids to a grown-up restaurant or attraction is challenging," Emily says. "But even a kids museum can be really hard on parents since it's so exhausting. [Stay & Play Snack Café] is designed to be fun and comfortable for kids and their adults together."
That's right – Emily took matters into her own hands and set out to create a spot where parents and their young children can hang out together. She began a Kickstarter campaign last summer and is ready to open the doors to Stay & Play Snack Café this Saturday.
"It has been so cool to see how the area parenting community has come together in support of the cafe, both through our Kickstarter campaign and through continued engagement with us," Emily says. "I think we will meet a real felt need for parents of young kids in town."
The combination coffee shop and play space is located at 405-A E. Chapel Hill St., and will have "toys, comfy seating, espresso, snacks and Wi-Fi in an inviting atmosphere." Stay & Play is targeting children ages 5 and under, so toys will include a train table; dollhouse; kitchen; workbench; art area; lots of baskets of animals, building sets and puzzles; a train soft climber; books; and an infant area.
Emily says she plans on using local products and services whenever possible. "We really believe in supporting a strong and engaged local economy and community," she says. "We got some of our toys from The Play House in Durham, craft supplies are donated by Bull City Craft, we are sourcing some snacks from the farmers' market and our coffee is roasted in Raleigh, just to name a few things."
Stay & Play also will offer a mix of movement/fitness classes and art/music-oriented classes. Some classes with outside instructors will carry a fee, but with that you get reduced admission. (Admission is $4.50 for the first child and $3 for each additional child.) Other activities like story time and music will be free with admission.
Saturday's grand opening lasts from 10am-5pm and features a photo booth by Jessica Lobdell Photography, a craft table by Bull City Craft, presentations from some of the Café's class instructors and a performance by Sandbox at 2pm. Also, one lucky email list subscriber will win a year membership.

The new movie theater at the Santa Maria Town Center mall will be open soon, but you can get a sneak peek this weekend and help out some local charities.
From Sunday through Tuesday, you can see a movie, get popcorn and a soda for $2 each at the new theater. The money raised each day will go to a different charity.
"It's all state of the art," said Amber Lease, assistant property manager. "It's absolutely beautiful, from the lighting fixtures down to the chairs in each of the rooms, it's absolutely gorgeous."
Opening night is Wednesday, then the theater will be open for regular business on Thursday.
"Hunger Games: Catching Fire" will be the first movie to show.

All-New 2009 Toyota Matrix
zombietom3 Posts: 74
moparbad Posts: 3,842Vibe less than $16K
Pontiac Vibe will have lower price for 2009, I'd be very surprised if the Matix did not also have a lower price. -
zombietom3 Posts: 74That sounds far more likely than the huge increase mentioned earlier. I find it hard to believe any car maker would introduce a totally new model at a totally new price point using an old model name unless the name were being resurrected from retirement and had a lot of nostalgic market pull attached..
nippononly SF Bay AreaPosts: 12,695The official date is February 15. I think you will see exactly ONE new Matrix (the '09) at dealers on that day, and if it gets sold the next day, you won't see another for a week.
But by March, you should begin to see decent stock at dealers.
There's not that much to distinguish between the old ('08) and the new ('09) unless you want the bigger engine or the AWD. In those cases you would need to wait for the '09. Apart from that, power is about the same, size is about the same, interior materials are about the same, and at any given price point features are about the same (except for standard ABS and 6 airbags on all models). With the discounts on the old model now, you could probably get an '08 with the airbags and ABS for the same price as you will be able to get a comparable '09 for, for the first few months of availability.
And of course, there's a styling change, as minor as it is...you have to decide which one you like the looks of more. :-)2013 Civic SI, 2009 Outback Sport 5-spd (stick)
ecotrklvr Posts: 519Not really a bad engine, the 2.4. It's just that the new Toyota 3.5 V-6 is so good.
The 2.4 has been around for awhile now, so it's not the most modern 4 out there. I think the Nissan 2.5 is possibly a better engine overall, and the VW 2.0 Turbo is just amazing.
I've really curious as to what Toyota has up its sleeve in the new 2.7L 4-cylinder coming in the new Venza. -
ecotrklvr Posts: 519Good point.
Reference: the revised 2008 Ratings for the RAV4 with 2.4 Auto are 21 / 27 - both numbers down 3 mpg from 2007.
Matrix 2.4 Auto are 21 / 29. I was surprised that the wheelbase of the Matrix is only 2.3" less, and that the weight is only 335 lb less. (Matrix gained 209 lbs in the re-do). Yet, the same City mileage for a 10% lighter car is kinda fishy. I'll bet that physics won't be cheated, and we'll see better real-world City mpg with the Matrix.
I wonder if the higher stance on the RAV allows for a freer-breathing exhaust?
The good news is we have the option of the 1.8 Auto; it's listed at 25 / 31 - 19% better City mileage, and nearly 15% Highway than RAV4. THe Manual numbers are 1 mpg better. This is the model I want to test drive for myself. I now have Highlander with the 2.4 Auto, 3516 lbs. and I'm hoping the Yamaha-built 1.8 is smoother than 2.4, and gives me equivalent (or better) performance with better mileage. -
nippononly SF Bay AreaPosts: 12,695Where are you getting those numbers?
Per Toyota's own website today, RAV4 AWD 2.4 (auto) is rated at 20/25 for 2008. Matrix AWD 2.4 (auto) is at 20/26. The '09 Matrix in its AWD trim only weighs about 100 pounds less than the RAV4 2.4 AWD, probably the main reason the numbers are so similar.
What stinks is that all 2.4L versions of the Matrix get the 5-speed auto EXCEPT the AWD! What's that all about? The AWD only gets the 4-speed, which must detract from fuel economy.
Another significant item to me is that the gas tank in the Matrix remains only 13.2 gallons, fine for the smaller engine with its higher mileage, but not so great for a 2.4L Matrix which will require fill-ups every 250-300 miles with that little gas capacity.
Compare this to the Subaru Impreza, priced the same and making a point better in gas mileage (and an extra 10 hp), but with a 16 gallon tank for much improved range compared to Matrix.
What's puzzling is that the Camry, with exactly the same 2.4L powertrain (and slightly better gas mileage) as the '09 Matrix, gets an 18.5-gallon gas tank, so clearly someone at Toyota acknowledges the need for a car with this fuel economy to have a bigger tank. Perhaps there's just no space under there to shoehorn it in?2013 Civic SI, 2009 Outback Sport 5-spd (stick)
ecotrklvr Posts: 519My numbers were from Toyota's website - for a FWD RAV4, not AWD. See link title
Wanna know something even crazier? I just sat in two new 2009 Corollas - they are both listed for 27/35 mpg with the 1.8 Auto.
I just checked, the Corolla final drive ratio for the 1.8 Auto is 4.130, and the Matrix is 4.312. And the Matrix is taller, so it'll have more drag at highway speeds. Toyota is positioning the new Matrix as a "Sport Coupe" look with a hatchback. They even try to disguise the rear doors be removing the 2007's side glass behind the rear doors. So, the diff ratio is numerically higher, so the Matrix will be quicker off the line, but get lower mileage. Your mileage may vary, though.
I guess you just can't beat the physics of it, no matter what. -
jaxs1 Posts: 2,697
719b Posts: 216final drive ratio of the top gear will determine highway gas mileage, not the number of gears.
another factor no one mentioned is the axle ratio. you'll have to know that also to make a fair comparison.
this is only speculation, but from reading various forums here and other sites, the 4 speed auto is more durable than the 5 speed. i have read that the toyota 5 speed transmission has had some problems. this must explain why they are using the 4 speed for the awd matrix... it will stand up to more stress. -
ecotrklvr Posts: 519Just stopped by the local dealer in Irvine. They had a dark gray S Auto, and I got a quick drive in it. It had the optional 215/45-17's. Impressions:
- Roomy enough for this guy, 6"4" 260. Enough adjustment in the tilt/tele for me to lift off the gas and hit the brake without banging the back of the wheel with my knee. Seats above average comfort. Seat height relatively high - much higher than, say, and Altima. Getting out, my knees were above 90'. Big plus for me. Noticeably narrower than an xB, but OK.
- Nice combination of ride and handling; just a tad rough for my taste, but considering the wheel/tire combo, I thought it was very good. Steering was very good. Brakes were very firm and linear.
- A little too much road noise, again OK considering the 45 series tires.
- Power was more than adequate. Merged onto the freeway without needing more than 3/4 throttle. (this is the 2.4L)
- Impressively quiet ride. Very smooth engine. Less bouncy in this configuration than in the Scion xB.
- Good rear-set room for two, or three small people. With Driver's seat ALL the way back, I sat behind it fine.
- Very good cargo room. Seemed even larger than the fish-eye pictures showed. A nice, flat floor, with some additional storage underneath. Plenty wide, and even deeper than it is wide. Seats fold down true flat.
- Nice dash layout. Sharp overall styling. Nose less pointy in person than in pictures. Overall, very sleek. Shapely enough for Gen Y, but classy enough for the over-50's too.
- Well-placed mounts for roof rack for my bikes. Roof-height perfect for putting two bike up there.
- Only negative - five speed auto shifting only so-so. Not nearly as crisp as my 4-speed auto in my 2.4L Highlander. Three distinct episodes of hunting between 2-3 upshift. (Maybe this brand-new trans needs to learn?) I had heard negative comments of 2005-2007 3.3L Highlander 5-speed auto, and went 2.4L 4-speed as a result and have been glad I did. Toyota Service reports that the 4-speed is very rugged.
I originally wanted to try a XRS, but the one they'd had was gone. With choppy-riding 215/45-18's on the XRS, I'm more interested in seeing how comfortable the ride the Standard's tires would give.
I left requesting a call when they got a 1.8L Auto in. I'll let y'all know what that's like as well.
All in all, a very positive drive in a very modern ride. -
rawdon Posts: 1Having brooded on the 09, I just bought the 08. I don't like the lower roof and the swept, solid rear pillars on the 09. Less vertical room and worse vision. Especially for our dogs--who wouldn't have been able to see to the right or left! Only thing I regret is not having an MP3 ready sound system.
ecotrklvr Posts: 519I thought about the same thing. But I need the tilt/tele steering wheel, so it's not an option.
I got a $180 Sony CD player with an AUX / MP# input installed in my 2007 Highlander, and it's better than the factory MP3 in the 2008 Highlander. I'm sure you must have save lots more than that with the '08 vs. the '09. So splurge and go to Best Buy / Circuit City.
I hope you and your dogs enjoy the new ride. -
ecotrklvr Posts: 519Thanks for the info. If I get several hours free, I just might. I'm not in a big rush - I'm driving a Toyota right now with only 13k miles on it...
I'd much rather buy a car from my local dealer - the one I bought from last year. I'll wait a week or two for them to arrive. Prices will likely be dropping in a bit, anyway. Patience.
I do know that someone bought an XRS from Irvine Toyota last week.
Has anyone here bought one yet? -
avalon02wh Posts: 733
waltchan Posts: 123Good news for southern California buyers. After many days of phone calls to many Toyota dealers, only one is allowing exact invoice pricing on the new 2009 Corollas and Matrixs. It is at Manhattan Beach Toyota. Ask for the internet director manager. Save $2,000 off from MSRP right now. I just ordered my 2009 Matrix XRS Sundance color from them, since they don't have it in-stock right now. Good luck.
nippononly SF Bay AreaPosts: 12,695You can have it professionally lifted - talk to a shop that does suspension work. But you should know that lifting it will make it look a little funny unless you put bigger rims and tires on, and will make handling quite a bit worse.
If you need an AWD car that has at least 7" of ground clearance, Subaru is where you should be shopping.2013 Civic SI, 2009 Outback Sport 5-spd (stick)
jaxs1 Posts: 2,697Is it noisier than a Corolla LE/XLE?
Does the base 1.8 have the same amount of sound insulation, acoustic glass, same tires and tall 4th gear gearing as the Corolla?
How about the S model? I would think the 2.4 plus 5-speed automatic could possibly be quieter than the 1.8 engine, but the sporty tires may add road noise which would make it nosier overall on the highway.
How is is the highway gearing vs the Corolla?
At the moment all the base Matrix models in my region are really base with no options available other than automatic transmission and cruise control. So, you can't get stability control unless you upgrade to the S or XRS, -
nippononly SF Bay AreaPosts: 12,695a couple of '09 Matrixes last night. I like the looks, but they are no better or worse than my '07 IMO.
I did notice a couple of discouraging things:
1. the rear glass doesn't open separately from the back door any more. That is one of my favorite features of the Matrix, and would be a deal-killer for me.
2. The rear wiper is still not standard, despite the rear glass now being more steeply raked. And unlike the last gen, they are shipping base models from the factory without this option.
3. Intermittent wipers are no longer variable intermittent. Just one fixed interval.
If you are one to notice the newly standard features like side airbags and ABS and the telescoping wheel, you also have to consider the things they took out to make this possible. And the price certainly hasn't gone down, in fact the base models I was looking at last night were much too close to $19K sticker (with automatic) for my liking.2013 Civic SI, 2009 Outback Sport 5-spd (stick)
griswald Posts: 33Reading the forums, one of the major drawbacks of the previous generation Matrix/Vibes was uneven tire wear due to lack of front end camber adjustment. I had this same problem on an older Toyota Corolla and although I'm in the market for a vehicle like this (wife actually), I will not knowingly buy another vehicle without front end camber adjustment - due to the alignment & tire wear problems I experienced first hand with the Corolla. So please, can anyone advise if this has been corrected on the new Vibe/Matrix's? :confuse:

I use electronic system of records in my office. I am concern with the cost of EMR. There is
a decrease in revenue due to the insurance reimbursement cuts. It forces therapist to see more patients and provide less effective care. I hear this from each patient who came to me after being treated in a big "well oils offices" with EMR in place already, that they less than satisfy with the high paced environment and absence of the results. An increase in patient's load due to EMR marketing without an increase in reimbursement will not solve the issue. We as physical therapists, work like hamsters in a wheel and the first and far most important issue to solve is the negotiation of the cost of our services we provide to a patient. The speed of entering of the information will not be so dramatic but increase in reimbursement will allow to spend quality time with the patient without running like chicken without heads from room to room. What president Obama should consider is the regulation and control of the insurances. Or we will end up like Lucy who could handle incoming candies. Sorry, but I think we should be looking at recognizing us, physical therapist soon to be mostly doctor physical therapist, as a profession not as a physiotherapy. Thank you.

Physical Therapy Management Improved Because of EMR
The best way to increase efficiency and productivity within your current physical therapy management and practice is to use the latest software called EMR.
Nitin Chhoda shows how the right EMR can improve staff's professionalism and systematize billing, as well as have a positive impact on staff to patient relationships.
Physical therapy management and handling patients come in two forms. The first revolves around the interpersonal relationship you have with patients.
This form of physical therapy management is critical to managing the expectations of patients as well as getting the best results from treatment plans.
The second form of patient management is the paperwork side of things. With an EMR for physical therapy management and services, you can improve efficiency in the way you record patient visits, referrals, insurance information, and billing.
Gaining Trust and Demonstrating Professionalism
One way that physical therapy management software can help with patient management is by giving your office a feel of professionalism and modern documentation techniques.
For example, every new patient that enters your office should feel that things are well organized. Trust is an important part of the clinician to patient relationship, and one way patients will come to trust you is through the tidiness and efficiency of the way your practice works.
This kind of judgment starts right away, and will continue into every facet of their experience with your staff and practice. Physical therapy management and documentation software can standardize the paperwork that patients deal with. EMR systems are designed to make communication straightforward for everyone within the practice and with patients.
Billing Expectations
Another way that EMR for physical therapy management and services will improve patient management is through your billing system. EMRs should include an excellent billing system that allows you to bill regularly and quickly. Physical therapy EMRs will include the necessary filing options for health insurance reimbursements, as well.
Patient management often strays into the physical therapy management or meeting patients' expectations, and the best way to manage expectations is to communicate clearly and preemptively.
In other words, if your patient believes that their insurance policy will cover all expenses, but the policy only covers 80%, you can avoid an uncomfortable situation by communicating those details before you send any bills.
Physical therapy management and billing can be extremely complex from the perspective of the patient. If you can communicate with them about billing and if your EMR has automated calculators for insurance and patient responsibilities, you'll be able to maintain a good relationship with your patients.
Planning Together
Patient and physical therapy management services can ensure that your patients stay with your practice and that they are an active participant in their own recovery or health plan.
Many patients will arrive with a sense of dread or apprehension about their physical therapy sessions.
The best way to ensure that they are ready to do the work is to plan together with them so they know what to expect.
Once a plan is set, an EMR system will help you to maintain consistency within that plan. Electronic medical records are quick and easy to access, and updates are quick and easy to make.
Every visit with a patient can be productive if both you and the patient feel confident about knowing what happened last time and what to expect for the current appointment. Physical therapy management and EMRs provide consistency and efficiency for patient management.

MANGALORE: Children in select primary schools in Dakshina Kannada district will soon get coaching in music, art, dance and job skills. Sarva Shiksha Abhiyan (SSA) has sanctioned 265 posts of art teachers and vocational training teachers for the district in its action plan for the year 2011-12.
While SSA has sanctioned 130 posts of part time teachers for art, 135 teachers will be appointed to train children in job skills. A total of Rs 39 lakh has been reserved to give salaries for the art teachers and Rs 40.5 lakh has been allotted towards the salary of vocational teachers. SSA deputy project co-ordinator N Shivaprakash said at a meeting of the SSA district programme implementation committee here on Monday that art and job skill teachers would be posted to higher primary schools, where the number of students is more than 100." Vacant posts of headmasters will be filled soon as per the guidelines of Right to Education Act, which will be implemented in the state soon. A total of 90 schools, where posts of headmasters remain vacant, will get heads soon," he said.
A total of 31.11 crore has been sanctioned under SSA for the implementation various activities and for the civil works in schools for the year 2011-12. "The national joint review mission (JRM) of SSA has already declared Dakshina Kannada as one of the 20 best districts in the nation with regard to the implementation schemes under SSA," he said.
Zilla panchayat chief executive officer K N Vijayaprakash said that 447 posts of primary school teachers and 199 posts of high school teachers remain vacant in the district. District in-charge minister J Krishna Palemar inaugurated the programme.

Students use art as form of expression at USU's Art 180 event
Students attended Art 180, an event where a muralist creates live art, to release some stress and participated in the variety of artistic activities.
At the event students were able to have glitter tattoos, eat edible fruit bouquets, participate in spin art sketching with sketching stations and a free speech wall, watch spoken word, decorate cookies and watch a live painting by Ronnie Robles, a muralist and performance artist.
Emmanuel Martinez, 23, senior english major and event lead, said the purpose of the event is to showcase to students how to think progressively when it comes to art.
He also said after the event students would have the opportunity to put sketches they created on a clothesline and walk through and see other students' work.
"I expect students will walk in seeing different art work here and think critically and deeply," he said. "The biggest takeaway is to engage artwork here done by students."
Angela Hovsepyan, 21, junior kinesiology major, said people should came to the event because they had the opportunity to experience a new hobby.
"I think it is great having this event on campus," she said. "It is nice to see students getting together and being active on campus because a lot of student here commute."
The spoken word was a flash-slam, similar to a flash-mob, where CSUN's poetry slam team created poetry to get students motivated.
Martinez said Robles was the professional artist at the event because he is highly respected and recommended by several people.
Robles said he has been a muralist since the third grade because art work surpasses languages and age barriers.
Taylor Watson, 27, a senior sociology major, said she came to this event to support Robles, a member of her fellowship group.
Robles said each piece fills a person's story and about 9 out of 10 of those buy pieces they relate to.
Watson said she bought a piece of Robles work at the event she named the "Colorful Soul" because it is an expression of a woman and a nice piece of art to put in her room.
Robles said this piece was a live piece he painted at the beach in January that expresses the contentment of being free.
Martinez said hopefully the USU will do this again next year and recommends students visit art programs on campus and the art department.
For further information contact USU events department at (818) 677-2491 and contact Robles on twitter at @WHEREUATRO.

Gasoline gained, outperforming crude and diesel, as lower refinery margins and prices coupled with seasonal maintenance may limit production.
Futures rose as much as 2.1 percent. Phillips 66 (PSX:US)'s Bayway refinery in New Jersey and PBF Energy Inc. (PBF:US)'s Delaware refinery are conducting planned work. Together the plants account for 420,000 barrels a day of capacity in the New York Harbor market. Gasoline's premium to Brent crude, a rough measure of the profit margin, has dropped to below $2 a barrel from more than $23 in July. The fuel's premium to West Texas Intermediate has shrunk to about $10 a barrel from $26.29 in July.
"Negative margins will discourage gasoline production," said Amrita Sen, chief oil market strategist at Energy Aspects Ltd., a research company in London. "Prices are also too low to encourage domestic production or imports. U.S. refinery runs will fall and imports will fall."
Gasoline for November delivery rose 3.55 cents to $2.6585 a gallon at 9:34 a.m. on the New York Mercantile Exchange on trading volume that was 21 percent above the 100-day average. Prices have dropped 15 percent since Aug. 29.
Speculation that supplies will fall also boosted margins today. The motor fuel's crack spread versus WTI widened $1.53 to $10.09 a barrel. The premium to Brent rose 44 cents to $1.54.
"The maintenance outages on the East Coast at Phillips 66 and PBF will reduce supplies of RBOB in the Harbor," said Andy Lipow, president of Lipow Oil Associates LLC in Houston.
Pump prices, averaged nationwide, fell 0.3 cent to $3.351 a gallon, 46.2 cents below a year ago, Heathrow, Florida-based AAA said today on its website.
Ultra-low-sulfur diesel for November delivery rose 1.56 cents, or 0.5 percent, to $3.033 a gallon on trading volume that was 20 percent above the 100-day average.
ULSD's premium versus WTI widened 78 cents to $25.90 a barrel. The crack spread over Brent fell 40 cents to $17.27.

Important Information >>
by Tim Johnson
Here's your chance to cut lots of corners and still get great-looking results. These sturdy trays are easy to build, thanks to their simple box joints and template-routed curves. You don't need a super-equipped shop, just a tablesaw with a dado set, a router table and a drill press. You've probably saved enough scrap pieces from other projects to build the trays and the jigs, but even if you buy lumber and plywood, you can make this trio of trays for less than $60.
1. Prepare your stock, including extra pieces for test-cutting. Cut blanks for the ends (A1, B1 and C1, Fig. A, page 67) and sides (A2, B2 and C2) to length, but leave them 1/8 in. oversize in width. All the ends must be squarely cut.
2. Arrange the pieces for each box and then mark the bottom edge of every one. When you cut the box joints, these marks will correctly orient the pieces in the jig.
3. Box-joint jigs index the workpiece for cutting sockets. (Photo 1). Cutting a series of sockets creates the pins. To make the joint, one piece has pins where the mating piece has sockets (see "Tablesaw Box Joints,").
4. Cut test box joints to dial in a precise fit. This is fussy work, because the tolerances are tiny. The pieces should slide together without binding or rattling. The best jigs have built-in adjustment systems.
5. Cut all the box joints. On the end-piece blanks, cut sockets only as far as their curved profiles dictate. The side-piece blanks are oversize, so you'll have to make an extra pass to complete the top sockets.
6. Use the end profile of the large tray (A1, Fig. C, below) as a pattern when you make the routing jig (Fig. B, below). First, transfer the curved edge profile to the jig's base. Then drill 1-in.-dia. holes with a Forstner bit to establish the ends of the handle hole. Finish rough-cutting the handle hole with a jigsaw. Then rough-cut the edge profile.
7. Smooth the edge profile using an oscillating spindle sander or a sanding drum in your drill press. Install a 3/4-in.-dia. spindle or drum to smooth the handle hole.
8. Use a large end-piece blank to position the jig's fence. Each end has six pins. Fasten the fence so the top pins are flush with the base's curved profile.
9. Install the stops after centering the large end-piece blank. Mount the toggle clamps (see Sources, below).
10. Draw edge profiles and handle holes on all the end blanks after installing them in the jig. Make spacers (W, X, Y and Z, Fig. B) to position the medium and small blanks.
11. Rough-saw all the curved profiles about 1/16 in. away from the pattern lines. To rough out the handle holes, drill 7/8-in.-dia. holes and use a jigsaw to saw out the waste.
12. Rout the edge profiles with a top-bearing flush-trim bit (Photo 2). Then rout the handle holes (Photo 3).
13. Saw grooves for the plywood bottoms (A3, B3 and C3). On the side pieces, the grooves align with the top of the first pin (Fig. A). On the end pieces, they align with the top of the first socket. Because 1/4-in.-thick plywood is often undersize, you can't use a dado set. Use your regular blade and make two passes. Adjust the fence between passes to widen the groove.
14. Assemble the boxes without glue to make sure everything fits. Rip the sides to stand 1/32 in. above the ends.
15. Disassemble the boxes for sanding.
16. Glue the boxes together. Spread a thin layer of glue on all the pins and sockets. Use a brush and glue with an extended open time. Squeeze a thin bead of glue into the grooves for the bottoms, too.
17. Clamp each box using blocks to fully seat the joints (Photo 4). Make sure the boxes are square.
18. After the glue has dried, remove the clamps and knock off the blocks. Dampen any paper that remains attached; after about a minute, it'll scrub right off. Check for any remaining glue—the moisture makes it turn a ghostly white color. Simply scrub the surface to remove it. Use a chisel to remove any glue inside the tray.
19. Cut plugs (D) and fill the holes in the ends of the trays (Photo 5).
20. True up the sides and ends (Photo 6).
21. Go over the boxes again with fine sandpaper; the grain will be raised in any area that has been wet. Slightly round all the sharp corners, especially those around the handle holes.
22. For small projects like this one, I prefer aerosol finishes. Spray on at least two light coats. Let the finish dry and sand lightly between each coat. Urethane finishes provide the best protection.

Spring Flood Potential Less in the South, Near Normal in the North
March 1, 2012
AUGUSTA, MAINE — With below-normal snowpack in western and southern Maine and lesser river ice than is normal, flood potential in southern Maine is below normal for the time of year. In northern areas, however, risk factors are in the normal range. The Maine River Flow Advisory Commission, meeting today in Augusta, reviewed information on current hydrologic conditions across the state, as well as short-term weather forecasts.
Robert Lent, District Chief of the USGS Maine Water Science Center and co-chair of the Commission noted that with today's snow storm bringing multiple inches of snow to central and southern sections, next week's snow survey, for example, will look much different.
In addition, the National Weather Service is forecasting a fast-track rain event for the weekend, followed by cold temperatures for the start of the week. By mid-week, however, much of Maine may experience above normal temperatures, possibly for a week or more.
"Today's conditions are a snapshot for today. Today's storm, and the predicted warm-up show how changeable the flood potential can be, week to week and day to day, "Lent said.
The most important factor influencing flooding is rainfall. Significant rain can cause flooding even though other risk factors (snowpack, river ice and stream flows) are normal or below for the time of year.
Everyone should stay aware of current forecasts, according to Rob McAleer, Director of the Maine Emergency Management Agency, and co-chair of the Commission. "This has been a strange fall and winter, in terms of snowfall and temperature. But one rainstorm at the wrong time could still cause flooding." McAleer noted that this year is the 25th anniversary of the flood of 1987. In that year, the snowpack was not out of the ordinary, but copious rainfall caused record catastrophic flooding.
McAleer said it is most important to check your flood insurance coverage if you live or have a business in a flood-prone area. "Most home and business owner's policies do not cover flood damages. And there is 30-day waiting period before a new policy goes into effect," he said. "The time to check your insurance is now."
Snowpack water content ranged from 5 to 7 inches in far northern Maine, to just 1 to 2 inched in southern and coastal sections. Currently, the snowpack in the north is quite dry, and can absorb some amount of rainfall. These levels put water content in lowest 25% of recorded data across much of the state compared to historical averages, with a swath from Bangor west to the mountains in the lowest 10% of historic averages. However, far northern Maine water content is in the normal range. Maine Cooperative Snow Survey maps are available at http://www.maine.gov/rfac/rfac_snow.shtml
River ice is well below normal in southern Maine, but closer to normal for the time of year in the north. Rivers in the extreme southern part of the State have little to no ice. The US Coast Guard is working with the USGS to assess the need to break ice in the lower Kennebec River, downstream from Gardiner. A decision will be made in the next few days whether ice-breaking will be needed; if so, a schedule will be announced.
Stream flows likewise are normal for the time of year. Rain from Hurricane Irene brought flows sharply up in last August. However, since then streams have come back to near normal flows everywhere in the state. Reservoir storages in the headwaters of Maine's large rivers are being drawn down to prepare for spring rains and runoff. River basin managers report that they are on track to achieve their drawdown targets.
Commission members will stay in close communication throughout the spring season, and will meet again if conditions warrant. Snow surveys will be conducted each week from now until the snow cover is gone.
The River Flow Advisory Commission meets annually in late winter to share information, examine potential for spring flooding and to renew operational protocols. The Commission is composed of state, federal and industry representatives with an interest in hydrologic issues. The full report of the March 1 meeting will be available on the Internet at http://www.maine.gov/rfac

I started some fibrous dragon wing begonias from seed January 16th. They started germinated 10 days later and I now have 7 out of 9 that have come up. Have them on a heat mat with constant temperature of 22 degrees. They seem to be very slow...a couple seem to be getting another leaf. Is this normal? This is my first attempt at growing these. I don't have them under light...just in the south window. They are under a plastic dome to keep the moisture in. When should I get them off the heat and into potting soil....do I wait until the first two true leaves? Any growing tips would be appreciated. |

Yes begonias are slow to get started, even from tubers. They just seem to sit there for a while then all of a sudden they seem to spurt up. Yes I would wait until they get their second true leaves. I would off set or raise slightly your humidity cover so the plants get some air circulation and it will still keep in the moisture. However when they are getting close to all having their second leaves I'd get rid of the cover. Since you don't have lights or greenhouse, I'd move them outside in the day when the weather is warmer and bring them in at night. Put them in a protected spot in shade. If you leave them on the window sill they tend to get leggy and lean towards the sun. |

It was a big day for healthcare in Lafayette Saturday as the new Our Lady of Lourdes Regional Medical Center officially opened for business.
The new hospital opened it's doors Saturday morning, after more than two years of construction. It is the largest, single construction project to date in Lafayette at 396-thousand square feet, there are approximately 200-beds with the potential for a total of 332.
The new Our Lady of Lourdes Hospital officially opened its' doors at 6a.m. Saturday, so for the sixty-seven patients still at the old facility Saturday was moving day.
Each patient needing to take the fifteen minute trip to the new facility, a task that took sixteen ambulances several back and forth trips. Dorothy Auzeen was the last patient to leave the St. Landry Campus and was ready for the big move.
"It feels good. Are you looking forward to the new location? Well yes, because I've never been there before. It's going to be a new adventure."
For many at Our Lady of Lourdes, it was a bitter-sweet day closing the door on one chapter of the hospital's history.
"For thirty-eight years, this has been my second home. I know where all the little crannies are, I know where to find things, so it's definitely going to be the building and all the memories that this building holds for me," said Karen Blue, Nursing Supervisor.
Patients and staff alike saying good bye but are looking forward to new memories at a new and improved Our Lady of Lourdes.
