Publisher Synopsis
"[Normal Accidents is] a penetrating study of catastrophes and near catastrophes in several high-risk industries. Mr. Perrow ... writes lucidly and makes it clear that 'normal' accidents are the inevitable consequences of the way we launch industrial ventures... An outstanding analysis of organizational complexity."--John Pfeiffer, The New York Times "[Perrow's] research undermines promises that 'better management' and 'more operator training' can eliminate catastrophic accidents. In doing so, he challenges us to ponder what could happen to justice, community, liberty, and hope in a society where such events are normal."--Deborah A. Stone, Technology Review "Normal Accidents is a testament to the value of rigorous thinking when applied to a critical problem."--Nick Pidgeon, Nature Read more...

About: The Public Safety Department of Truett-McConnell College exists to ensure faculty, staff, student, and campus safety throughout the school year. It is only through cooperation that the Public Safety Department and its employees can best serve the campus.
The student in whose name a permit is issued is always responsible for the operation and parking of his or her vehicle, regardless of who is actually driving it. This does not absolve the driver from blame if he or she is anyone other than the normal operator or owner in whose name the vehicle is registered.
Every person who operates a vehicle on the campus of Truett-McConnell College is required to obey all city ordinances and state laws relating to the operation, insuring, and registration of motor vehicles. A citation will be issued to anyone who violates any such law or ordinance, or any regulation of Truett-McConnell College. Each violation will result in a $25.00 fine unless otherwise noted. These fines will be added to the student's bill through the Business Office.
Registration Violations
Parking Violations
* $75 fine for this violation.
Moving Violations
Public Safety officers are authorized to issue citations for violations or turn incidents over to local law enforcement. Motor vehicle privileges will be suspended for any person who receives more than three citations during an academic year.

Prepare for the worst to ensure the best during your next interview.
You're lost -- and the interview is in 20 minutes!
The best option is to avoid this completely. Try a dry run by commuting to the office location at the same time of day your interview is scheduled so you are familiar with the route and can properly budget your travel time. If you still manage to get lost, pull out your smart device and use apps like Google Maps or HopStop to estimate how long it will take you to get to the office. If you're sure to be late, give your main point of contact a heads-up as soon as possible.

This might sound like a dumb question, but how doi you import songs from the older games. My downloads from RB2 transferred to RB3, but the songs on the disk did not.
See, the problem is that you are using your cards to show me what cards you have, and if you can't see that this is viciously circular, then there is no point in continuing

Tom Thanks for your response. I have a little more info to hand since my original posting. My Great Grandfather, Edward, was born in 1826. He married Anne Burleigh, date unknown, and I believe they had 7 children the last of which was my Grandfather Robert, born 31 Oct 1873. His wife Anne died in 1903. Do not know when Edward died. Have some very sketchy info ref births during the 1800's but can not link your GGrandmother Mary Anne into the lineage. I visit the old home area most years as I feel an affinity with the place. Have been through Derrylin many times which is about 8 miles from Druminiskill where my immediate family connections are. Have even considered retiring to the area but the wet weather tends to put me off a little. With ref. to my GGrandfather Edward, I have not been able to make any sideways connections to his siblings and their lineages. Perhaps when I have more time and resources I will make more inroads. Once again thanks for your response. Best wishes for 2002 John Phair

Dunhill 1907 Debuts Next Week
David Savona
Posted: May 5, 2014
A new Dunhill named for the founding year of the famed cigar brand goes on sale next week. Dunhill Tobacco of London will launch 1907 by Dunhill on May 13 at a party in New York City's Club Macanudo. The cigars will then go on sale to retail outlets around the United States and the world, with shipments expected to reach retailers by mid-May.
As reported in February, 1907 refers to the year that Alfred Dunhill opened his eponymous tobacco shop on Duke Street in London. Since then, the Dunhill name has become one of the better known brand names for cigars, first as a Cuban brand and later as a Dominican brand. For several years the company had not been terribly active in creating new product. This launch of 1907 showcases newfound interest in the venerable brand.
Dunhill presently has two varieties, a very mild Aged Selection and a stronger Signed Range. The 1907 is intended to fall in the middle in terms of strength.
"It's a medium [bodied] smoke that will complement our portfolio," said Yves Politi, head of Dunhill cigars for British American Tobacco International Ltd.
The brand will come in four, somewhat classic sizes, ranging in price from around $7 to $8.25 each. There will be a Rothschild, 4 1/2 inches long by 48 ring; a Robusto, 5 by 52; a Churchill measuring 7 by 49; and a box-pressed Toro measuring 6 by 54. The Toro is the only pressed size; the other three are presented in the round. Each comes in a box containing 18 cigars.
The wrapper is osa viso from Honduras, the binder is a Dominican olor leaf and the filler blend combines Dominican olor and piloto Cubano. They are being rolled at General Cigar Dominicana for Dunhill.

I'm having a lot of trouble figuring out how to properly build my ForeignKey column for a table I'm defining. I've outlined my models here (and put a comment next to the problematic line in my PhoneNumber model):
class AreaCode(db.Model):
__tablename__ = 'areacodes'
area_code = db.Column(db.Integer, primary_key=True)
exchanges = db.relationship('Exchanges', backref='area_code')
class Exchange(db.Model):
__tablename__ = 'exchanges'
exchange = db.Column(db.Integer, primary_key=True)
area_code_pk = db.Column(db.Integer, db.ForeignKey('areacodes.area_code'), primary_key=True)
class PhoneNumber(db.Model):
__tablename__ = 'phonenumbers'
phone_number = db.Column(db.Numeric(precision=4, scale=0), primary_key=True)
exchange_pk = db.Column(db.Integer, db.ForeignKey('exchanges.exchange'), primary_key=True) # this doesnt work since Exchange has two primary keys
Here's what's happening:
My Exchange table has a composite primary key. This is required for my use case.
The PhoneNumber table I'm trying to define needs a ForeignKey to the Exchange table, but since the Exchange table has a composite primary key, I can't figure out how to make the relationship work.
Any guidance would be appreciated. Thank you.

Inspiring stories of couples separated by archaic law
Thousands of same-sex binational couples are kept apart by U.S. immigration policies that don't just fail to recognize that two people of the same gender can have a positive, fulfilling and committed relationship, but actually target the non-citizen half of such couples as a security risk. Despite the work of activist groups such as Immigration Equality, Love Exiles and Out4Immigration, and numerous attempts by understanding elected representatives to push through legislation to eliminate this unfair policy, many couples have left the US to live in other countries, or to live nomadic lives traveling to a variety of countries, in order to avoid being split up.
Was this review helpful? Yes NoThank you for your feedback. Report this reviewThank you, this review has been flagged.
The book begins with a forward by Elizabeth Gilbert, celebrated author of "Eat, Pray, Love," who is happily married to a man from Brazil. She points out the hypocrisy that they never had a problem being together, since immigration law allows citizens to bring in their fiancés, citizens or not. The fact that same sex couples are denied similar treatment, simply because we don't have the option to marry under federal law, has made her an activist for a change in policy to eliminate this blatant discrimination, and inspired the author to tell her story.
Judy Rickard and her partner Karin, a British citizen, have endured long separations and taken trips simply to be together as much as possible. She also introduces us to over a dozen additional couples with similar (and worse) stories, with tales of their partner being dragged from their home in the middle of the night, of forced, immediate deportations, living in exile to avoid prosecution, having to pay thousands in legal fees while fighting life-threatening illnesses, The book covers idiosyncrasies in existing rules for "green cards", student and work visas, binational citizenships, and humanitarian visas that work against same-sex couples. And it discusses how such couples may choose to arrange "sham" marriages to opposite sex partners, just to get the opportunity to be in the same country together.
It's a powerful indictment of a legislative policy, formed in the name of homeland security that is running amuck and violating the basic rights of thousands of Americans. The book includes an extensive appendix of research sources, applicable legislative cites, proposed laws, and things you can do to help. All royalties from the book are being donated to lobbying groups involved in the effort. Not an easy read, but an important one. Five stars out of five.

I long for a proper place to hoard electronics
Since we move around the world a lot for work I have to curtail my electronics hoarding impulse somewhat. I think it is green to save old kit from the landfill. And it is satisfying to come up with a USB mini when the cheapo manufacturers these days ship printers etc without cabling. However this green glow is counterbalanced by the Brobdingnagian carbon foot print laid down by bunging it around the world. Also the older equipment does have great big sooty feet. This does not stop me from saving working gear, mind you. But I do get rid of some of it. I sort cables into plastic totes. One for analog cables RCA , speaker and antenna wire (icluding coaxial). Another tote for data and periferal; usb, hdmi, ethernet patch cables, parallel, rs232 (you never know) , Another for internal computer data. PATA, SATA etc. Another tote for DC power supplies and dc power cables. And finally another for mains including international adapters and extension cords all with various plugs: US, British (safest in the world) and European. Had some Aussie plugs and binned 'em. No chance of an assignment there again.
My favorite save involved an old box built for me by the Armenian Institute of computer Science. Top flight ASUS components for 1999. It just refused to break. It was used as a file server until I gave it to a center for disabled children in Tajikistan in 2011. It ran Ubuntu Linux and would not get infected like the hopeless unmaintained XP machines. This proved very useful to the project director as she could visit the site and not get her thumb drives polluted. I hooked it to an old printer. The kids could even play games on it. Things like this are what make it hard to cure myself of e-hoarding.

you who so easily have chosen to disregard having been warned about exactly what will happen at that point in time, who these entities will IN TRUTH be, and having chosen to delude yourselves otherwise in lieu of your egos once again having taken precedence over all common sense, wisdom, and/or any small semblance of good reason.
you will therefore receive that which you have earned with the doing and it will not be long in coming thereafter.
from the moment they make their presence known to the world you will have five months of non stop deteriorization to look forward to as the world around you crumbles from within, along with any shadow of moral fiber that yet remains amongst the lot of you, which in truth seems to be much a moot point in fact, hence you can call them your "just desserts" in equal measure.
not only will they cause you to come to your senses on the first day of the Millennium Age franctically searching for someplace to hide, they will have you wishing with all your might you could somehow shake the shame that you have brought upon yourselves in the interim.
having been duly warned repetitiously makes you all the more well deserved with regard to the "rewards" you will receive for the "fruits of your labor" accordingly.
let it be known that your high hopes for their "assistance" and all else they will feign in your foolhardy regard will be the equal opposite of that which they intend to deliver unto you in their service as the rods of Gods displeasure with the lot of you in full.
they will not in truth "come in peace" but they will in fact leave you "in pieces" as they lead you down that selfsame garden path which warranted your presence here and now at the end of this Age of rebellion in wait of their imminent arrival, whereby you would be proven once and again to have been unfit for anything more than this last ditch opportunity to yet shame yourselves further prior to the end of this Age.
enjoy the ride, theres no place you will more well deserve being than in hell when its fully frozen over.
rest assured, your lot in the Millennium which will follow closely at the heels of your five month dalliance with Death will be equally enshrouded in that selfsame darkness you'll have therefore earned and so richly thusly deserve.
you new age hopefuls are an abomination indeed. the very idea that you view yourselves as "fit" to "ascend" is the epitome of irony with regard to the strong delusion you were advised would befall all self serving egoists such as yourselves at the "time of the Revealing" which would closely preface The End. you may well have kept your own noses relatively clean but what on earth have you sacrificed in lieu of your brethren within this world who have existed in virtual hell from the onset? not nearly enough you will come to find as to have warranted your ascending to a higher estate. not even close in fact and you've been duly put on notice and apprised of that fact, hence read it and weep en masse.
What the...!?
Can somebody possibly translate this little lot into something better, or more understandable?

Fresh, colorful fruits and vegetables fill the shelves of Weepin Willies, a local market that stocks produce and meats at two locations. Shoppers can find high quality cuts of beef, chicken, and pork, or opt for Boar's Head meats and cheeses and prepared soups, salads, and sandwiches from the deli.
Apple Spice Cafe & Juice Bar?s menus spring from a deep love of deli cuisine and a fervent desire to make lunch the standout meal of the day. At the eatery, chefs layer fresh-baked breads with deli meats and cheeses to create more than a dozen types of hearty sandwiches, including sugar-cured virginia ham and a classic pastrami-and-swiss. Patrons who would rather stay inside can order box lunches teeming with dill pickles, desserts, and a choice of pasta, potato salad, or frog-eye salad. Apple Spice Cafe & Juice Bar?s friendly delivery team also directs catering trays toward offices and sets up stations of build-your-own breakfast burritos, baked potatoes, and fajita-themed great helms.
In 1993, the basement of a Minneapolis apartment building was transformed into an Italian restaurant, becoming the first Buca di Beppo. The owners soon found themselves riding a wave of popularity and marinara sauce as they opened new restaurants across the nation. Today, the eatery occupies 97 locations nationwide, from San Francisco to Times Square.
At each location, chefs maintain the northern and southern Italian flavors that made the original so popular, with a few American twists. Then they serve it up in massive, family-style portions, making Buca di Beppo a favorite place for hungry families and groups of friends.
For starters, the chefs bake up batches of Cheesy Bread Florentine, a colorful combo of spinach, roma tomatoes, and garlic sprinkled over Italian bread and sealed in place with fresh, melted cheeses. Entrées are prepared with an eye toward quality and quantity, both of size and selection, complete with Veal Parmigiana, Baked Ziti, and classic Italian-American staples like Ravioli and Lasagna. And in keeping with the convivial atmosphere, they also serve truly decadent desserts. The Mt. Vesuvius Dark Chocolate Cake erupts with melted chocolate, and the Colossal Brownie Sundae towers above other sweets with six scoops of ice cream and tiers of sundae trimmings.
A warm orange and red light illuminates Ritual, tinting its brick-accented walls and exotic statues an inviting ruby. Flickering candles and the glow of flat-screen televisions add to the romantic, yet contemporary atmosphere, where the trendy decor is rivaled only by an eye-catching menu of American-fusion cuisine. Globetrotting meals commence with small plates of chocolate-dipped applewood bacon or waygu beef, which diners sear over a hot rock or the grill they keep in their wallets. Chicken marsala and bacon-wrapped filet mignon represent a portion of the more traditional entrees, but dishes stretch as far as the bounds of the chef's imagination, including an award-winning seared duck breast double-coated with crushed cocoa beans and a hazelnut-chocolate demi-glace.
Eric's LaPatisserie Café sates the morning and afternoon eat reflexes with fresh-baked, oven-hot pastries and gourmet stuffed sandwiches and paninis. Fresh croissants emerge from steaming hot ovens ($3), and toasted bagels remain crisp even while bearing gobs of the eatery's famous labor-inducing cream cheese ($2). Afternoon appetites, meanwhile, can be sated with a grilled herb-chicken sandwich ($6.25) or a shrimp-and-seafood salad ($5.50).
Owner Pavlina and her family craft an eclectic menu of mammoth meals, such as a fluffy three-egg omelet inhabited by spinach, feta, and black olives ($6.95). Guests can acquaint tongues with the flavor of homemade corned-beef hash, accompanied by baked home fries, toast, and any style of eggs, be they scrambled or business casual ($6.95). Shaker's encourages creative spud consumption with home fries baked alongside italian sausage, onions, and peppers, blanketed by a melted sheet of provolone cheese ($6.95). Friday evenings, Shaker's Café and Restaurant's door remains intriguingly ajar until 8 p.m. for BYOB, casual dinners. Diners can entangle brave forks in a mountain of pasta, whose apex bears garlic- and wine-infused chicken marsala ($11.95). Like an underwater hostel, the dinner menu hosts an abundance of wayward sea-swimmers, including baked haddock ($10.95) and fried scallops served beside coleslaw and fries ($13.95).

Get in there kid, and make a difference.
Few NFL drafts work out better at the top than this year's grab bag. Look no further for reasons the St. Louis Rams and Detroit Lions have become competitive than No. 1 overall pick Sam Bradford and No. 2 Ndamukong Suh.
While it no longer is strange for a quarterback to step directly from college into an NFL starting job — Ben Roethlisberger, Matt Ryan, Joe Flacco, Matthew Stafford, Josh Freeman and Mark Sanchez did so recently — seeing a rookie lift a team from the worst record in football to playoff contention is notable. That Bradford has done it with a cast of obscure receivers makes his early impact remarkable.
Suh has been the dominant player on a Lions team that has broken a pair of ignominious skids in the past two weeks (19 consecutive division defeats and 26 straight road losses). The defensive tackle has eight sacks, the most at his position in the league — rookies or veterans. He's also a solid run-stopper and the kind of player opponents must scheme to stop from the outset.
"Both of those players have had a big role for their teams and they look like the type of players their teams can build around," says NFL draft consultant Gil Brandt.
Bradford, who has taken every snap for St. Louis and has the Rams (6-8) in position to take the NFC West — wins in the final two games will do it after they went 1-15 in 2009 — is, by far, the most impressive quarterback in the rookie crop. Jimmy Clausen, Max Hall, John Skelton, Rusty Smith, Tony Pike, Joe Webb, Tim Tebow and Colt McCoy have played, with only McCoy having moderate success.
"Sam is poised, he's calm, he's assertive," Rams center Jason Brown says.
"He's a great player and he's going to continue to play great," adds St. Louis receiver Danny Amendola.
Other impressive rookies on offense range from receivers Jordan Shipley of Cincinnati, Mike Williams of Tampa Bay, Jacoby Ford of Oakland and Dez Bryant of Dallas, to tight ends Jermaine Gresham of Cincinnati, Aaron Hernandez and Rob Gronkowski of New England, and Tony Moeaki of Kansas City, to running backs LeGarrette Blount of Tampa Bay, Ryan Mathews of San Diego, Chris Ivory of New Orleans and Jahvid Best of Detroit. Linemen Mike Iupati of San Francisco, Maurkice Pouncey of Pittsburgh, Rodger Saffold of St. Louis, Zane Beadles of Denver and Jared Veldheer of Oakland have been key regulars.
But Bradford has stood out, particularly with running back Steven Jackson as the only proven commodity on offense. The rookie from Oklahoma has struggled recently, with five interceptions and no touchdowns, and St. Louis just as easily can finish 6-10 as 8-8 and in the playoffs.
Still, Bradford's skills and decision making have been solid for such a difficult position and on a rebuilding team.
"He's a very focused individual," coach Steve Spagnuolo says. "He takes care of his body and he realizes the length of this whole thing. You're talking about the rookie walls, but he played at Oklahoma, where they're still practicing now."
Should Bradford win The Associated Press NFL Offensive Rookie of the Year award to be announced after the season, he would become the fourth quarterback voted top rookie in seven years. Before that, no QB had won it.
And if Suh takes the top defensive award, it would mark only the second time the top two choices have swept the rookie honors: running back George Rogers and linebacker Lawrence Taylor did it in 1981.
Suh, from Nebraska, was the most disruptive defensive player in college a year ago. He's barely missed a step in the pros, and the Lions' vast improvement on defense — they allowed a league-worst 494 points in 2009 and are on track to yield 376 — can be directly attributed to his impact.
Suh, who needs three sacks to set a rookie mark for his position, also has an interception and a fumble return for a touchdown.

Midsize Sedans 2.0
jd10013 Posts: 779I don't think you can get a versa with an automatic either. I believe nissan has switched all their cars to either cvt or stick.
this is from a review, can't remember where:
"A CVT has no forward gears or complex clutches and bands. Instead, there are two tapered pulleys with a steel belt connecting them. These pulleys can change their effective diameter through a signal from the computer. If the pulley halves are squeezed together making them narrower, the diameter in effect, increases causing the belt to move to the outer edge. At the same time, the other pulley would spread out causing the diameter to decrease. Changes in the two pulleys are always coordinated to keep the belt taut.
If the smaller pulley is being turned by the engine (the drive pulley), the steal belt would turn the larger pulley (the driven pulley) more slowly. If the diameters change, the speed of the driven pulley will also change. By allowing the computer to control the diameters of the two pulleys, the transmission ratio will smoothly and gradually change from low "gear" to high "gear"
This design eliminates the need for a 4 speed, five speed or even a six speed transmission, instead allowing for an infinite number of "speeds". The net effect is better fuel economy (at light throttle, the engine rpm is always at the optimal point for maximum fuel efficiency), and better performance (the engine can stay in its sweet spot for maximum horsepower delivery)" -
backy Twin CitiesPosts: 18,787In fact you can't get a base Versa with the CVT in the U.S., just the 4-speed automatic or 6-speed stick.
Which leads to a thought... since the Versa is roomier than some "mid-sized" cars, especially in back, is it a mid-sized car? I'll bet most people don't consider it mid-sized, but it can hold four adults in comfort with the best of the mid-sized field. There's a few other small cars like that too, e.g. Elantra and Sentra. I wonder if people who are satisfied with a four-cylinder cross-shop cars like that when looking for a "mid-sized" car? FWIW, I do. -
backy Twin CitiesPosts: 18,787Yes, the Versa (95 cubic feet) has less interior volume than the Sentra (97) or Altima (101), but the Versa is actually considered a mid-sized car by the EPA, as are the Sentra and Elantra (98). The Mazda6 is considered a mid-sized car, but has only 96 cubic feet, just one more than the Versa and less than the Sentra and Elantra. The Accord EX has only 98 cubic feet according to Honda. The Legacy has only 93 cubic feet! So these smaller cars match up pretty well in interior room against some of the mid-sized cars. I suspect the Versa is classed a subcompact by some only because of its length. In some countries, it would be considered a "family car".
thegraduate Posts: 9,731
benjaminh Posts: 1,792The interior volume of the Accord without the sunroof is 102.7, according to the brochure I have in front of me. The sunroof steals 5 feet of room (97.7 with sunroof), I guess. It didn't seem like that much when I compared the two models, but I'm only 5'10", and so I don't need a whole lot of headroom.
thegraduate Posts: 9,731
backy Twin CitiesPosts: 18,787At what point did it go off track? :confuse:
For future reference, you can find all the specs such as interior room on the Accord and all the Hondas here: http://automobiles.honda.com/ -
captain2 Posts: 3,971keep in mind the 95 Accord a much much lighter and smaller car. The 2.7 V6 weighed a whole 3200 lbs. the 4 banger almost 200 LESS. Goes to show you how far we've come in 10 years+ and how much larger cars in this class have become. FE (especially in the now 244hp 6) has improved substantially over the old V6, not to mention that the 0-60 time that has lost about 3 seconds. So we can baseline that 9s+ 0-60 and convince ourselves that that must be good because that is what the Accord V6 was able to do 10 years ago, or we can enjoy the added safety of that extra power, and know that that efficiency is not effectively costing much at the gas pumps.
elroy5 Posts: 3,741I would not call it an "advanced timing maneuver", whatever car you are driving the best way to pass is to do most of the accelerating before going into the oncoming lane.
First you say you would not call it an advanced timing maneuver, then you describe exactly what I meant by the phrase. :confuse:
I just can't see ever cutting a passing maneuver so close that 0.5 to 1 sec would make a difference.
I have never cut a passing maneuver so close with the V6, that I would not have made it with the 4cyl. But it is nice to have that extra margin for error. And yes, the V6 does make a considerable difference, when it comes to passing. Opinions, like mileage, may vary. -
benderofbows Posts: 544Well, after months of ownership and being overall very pleased with the Accord, I have my first complaint. The manual locking mechanisms for each individual door are the pull style, and are located on top of the window sill by the B-pillar. This is right in the way of where I sometimes like to rest my arm/elbow, especially when the windows are down. On my old car, the mechanism was a lever that was built into the side of the door right by the door handle.
My solution? I unscrewed the pull itself, and removed it, leaving a small hole where it used to stick up. I'll probably try to find some sort of cap to pop in there. I guess you can say my Honda has now been modified/customized -
elroy5 Posts: 3,741Back in 96 the V6 Accord was pretty much a wasted effort. It only added 25hp, over the 4cyl VTEC engine, and added (like the captain said) almost 200 lbs because it had a cast iron block, which made it close to a wash, as far as power to weight ratio. The V6 in the current Accord adds about 80 hp, which is more than enough to account for the added weight. The 4cyl has gained 25hp since 96, and the V6 has gained 75hp since then. The V6 Accord has come a long way, in 10 years.
thegraduate Posts: 9,731keep in mind the 95 Accord a much much lighter and smaller car. The 2.7 V6 weighed a whole 3200 lbs. the 4 banger almost 200 LESS.
The 1996 Accord 4-cylinder weighs 2,855 pounds, according to ConsumerGuide, with the wagon weighing in at 3,053 pounds.
Just some useful info when trying to compare relative weights of these cars. -
thegraduate Posts: 9,731Yeah, but with a brand new customer base getting a lot of car for the money, Hyundai is still rising. You really can't take that away from them. Like the old phrase goes...."You've come a long way baby." Well, Hyundai has gone from a joke of a company to a company offering solid contenders in MANY classes of car.
thegraduate Posts: 9,731No, naming the companies wouldn't be good here. Naming the individual vehicles might be, but if the comments aren't constructive, there's just no point.
This convo gets off track and too personal with one little post these days, even posts not intended to start trouble are often taken WAY personally.
I think Ford Fusion and Hyundai Sonata should share an award (for last year) for Rookie of the Year, or Most Improved midsize offering from that company. -
thegraduate Posts: 9,731
bhmr59 Posts: 1,598I knew that posting something positive about a car other than Honda Accord, especially a Hyundai Sonata would push your button.
Take a tip from thegrad. He's completely pleased with his Accords and tells us why. He also acknowledges that there are some worthy competitors, including the Sonata. Mainly, he preferred the Accord's interior. Some may like the Accord interior the best, some may not and some may put more importance on a different attribute of the cars. -
jd10013 Posts: 779Well, maybe they didn't want to follow in Ford's footsteps of renaming its cars every decade.
As a former ford customer (many, many years ago) I think I know why they do that. I think, its because they allow their cars to become so inferior in quality, style, and reliability that they have too. I, for example, owned two Ford escort. both ran fine till about 70k miles, then were nothing but problems. everything from major engine problems to buttons and knobs breaking, to the most bizzare of all, the catch for the door lock (the metal piece on the frame) actualy rusted (actualy it was the body that rusted) and fell off. I couldn't close the door.
But getting back to the point, If ford had kept making them and ever improved the car, it woundn't have mattered. it wouldn't have mattered how many awards that car would have won, or how great the reviews would have been; i would never have bought one again in my life. IMHO, ford (and to some extent GM) have such a reputation for letting their cars go to crap that they have to ditch them and start over. -
phaetondriver Posts: 175
thegraduate Posts: 9,731
thegraduate Posts: 9,731No, the Contour was a larger car than either of those, and filled the gap between the Taurus and Escort (much like the old 90s Altima did between the Maxima and the Sentra). The market for cars like the Contour, Mazda 626, and compact Altima sort of vaporized, along with the name Contour.

Line breaks: fuckPronunciation: /fʌk
vulgar slang
[ with object]
Definition of fuck in English:
Back to topexclamation
Back to topOrigin
early 16th century: of Germanic origin (compare Swedish dialect focka and Dutch dialect fokkelen); possibly from an Indo-European root meaning 'strike', shared by Latin pugnus 'fist'.
Despite the wideness and proliferation of its use in many sections of society, the word fuck remains (and has been for centuries) one of the most taboo words in English.

Great heavy duty concealer. There is nothing this stuff won't conceal! Blends nicely and I found it to be not drying (I even have very dry skin). The color is great! I can't say enough about this concealer. Try it!
This stuff is seriously AMAZING!!! Physicans Formula is one of those brands I usually just pass on by at the drugstore-it's kind of pricey, & very limited IMO. But I had a $6 off coupon, so I decided to use it on the Conceal RX. I must've seen this product about a zillion times at the drugstore, & the reason I'd always passed it over besides the fact I usually don't go for PF stuff is that I had always thought that the color of the tube was the color of the product. So I just thought it would be too dark. But then I found out that it's just the color of the plastic, & the product is a different color, so I tried it. I got the shade Fair LIght, & it's a really good match for my skin, not so light that it basically makes zits stand out more, but too dark either. It's a bit more peachy than my skintone, but after I add foundation & setting powder it's a pretty seamless match. It's VERY heavy duty-you don't need much of this stuff. It even will cover tattoos if you add a couple layers. It's somewhat water resistant as well-I put some on a tattoo I have to really see what it could do, & I took a shower & it mostly stayed on in the shower! I like that it's a creamy liquid formula too-sometimes cream concealers that come in a stick or a pot form just cling to any dry patches, like when I have a pimple that's healing, sometimes there will be like a dry looking ring around it, & stick concealers just highlight that. But this doesn't. I'm so happy I got it & wish I got this stuff sooner! Normally it's around $10, & I think for next time when I don't have a coupon it'll be well worth it, because of how well it works, plus you only need a tiny bit so a tube will last a long time. The one thing though about this is that unfortunately, it doesn't come in a very wide range of skin tones, so if you have a medium to dark complexion, they don't have any shades to accomodate you.

Just found my new holy grail convealer. Perfect color match. It takes very minimal amount of product to cover blemishes. It covered mine to just about non existent. I mean, it was like my blemishes were erased. Absolutely amazed. I won't use it under the eyes bc I do see how it would be drying so I will continue using my Rimmel concealer for that area, but for blemishes this stuff is amazing. Will continue buying for sure!
Good pigment to mix in with other products. I bought this months ago and like others, found it a little tricky to use by itself. I recently bought a cream foundation on a ridiculous clearance sale - Cover Girl Aqua Smooth, that is a little too dark. So I mixed in a little smudge of this into a smudge of the aqua smooth in palm of hand and got a really good base out of it. Stippled it on lightly with foundation brush. Less is more with both products....if you use them, you know. Would work for liquid foundation too.
Just an idea in case you are stuck with this product that is too light in color or too heavy to use by itself. The pigment and ingredients are good in the product itself, just rarely a perfect match.

I struggle with really dark under eye circles! I don't know if the fact that I'm pale exaggerates them but I'm always looking for a nice concelear. I've been using this one for a year+ now simply because it's the best drugstore brand I can find for now. Some cons id say are: it does crease after a while, a little pricey for me personally, it oxidizes occasionally. Pros: it does what it's supposed to!, has a pale enough shade for me. Overall, this is the one I'm sticking to until I find a better one!

Absolutely the best under-eye concealer I've discovered and better for me than more expensive brands. GREAT coverage! The secret to using this concentrated product successfully is to use the tiniest of drops and blend well OVER eye moisturizing serum or cream, of course. People who complain this is drying might be expecting it to moisturize when it's a concealer only! Natural Light hides my dark circles and doesn't crease when I brush lightly with powder to set. I also use it to cover a "multitude of other sins" such as intractable sun or red spots. One of my "budget maven" favorites. Very reasonably priced @ about $9 online.
I returned this as soon as I got it. The darkest shade looks like it was made for a pale person, so it was lighter than a highlighter on me! I can't even use it under my eyes. The formula is drying and it doesn't blend well either.
This was very heavy and thick. PF never has good shades only light skin tones can use this and even then it may not be a good match. PF really needs to get it together and make better shades. They make good products already now if they could make some good shades I am sure their sales would sky rocket.
I was excited to try this after I read the claims PF made and the reviews. I was very disappointed.
-Packaging is not the product color itself, just the color of the tube. I bought Natural Light and I'm pretty light, but nooo, it was wayyy to light. It was very obvious I had it on.
-Does not blend well. It sat on my blemishes rather than blend and cover.
-My skin is oily as it could ever be today and this was STILL to dry for me to blend well, if at all.
This concealer covers extremely well and whatever you conceal *stays* concealed throughout the day. You can layer it without looking cakey. I use this for my dark circles, acne scars, and sometimes to cover redness on my face. It can look very cakey if your skin is dry, as my skin was in the winter. I discovered that if I apply this UNDER my foundation, it will not look cakey at all. When my skin is more oily, I can wear this on top of my foundation. It doesn't work the best on active blemishes because it accentuates the dry, broken skin although it does hide redness well. It is good as an under eye concealer but it will crease if you apply it all the way under your eye. If you apply it in the inner corners of your eyes and take it down, stopping right where your iris begins and blend out, it won't crease and it will brighten your face much better believe it or not. I think this blends better when I use my fingers.:) I hope that helps.

There is an explanation there from the web host. Basically, he works for a web hosting company but bought that sever himself and they graciously let him run it there for free. He also offered some interesting thought about RAID and the controllers. I'm a network routing guy with my server days, such as they were, long behind me so it was interesting reading his thoughts.
Bottom line, they do great without charging. I'd be willing to pay as I do here but considering they have had three outages in ten years with no significant data loss the current set up seems to be just fine.

TRENTON, Nov. 6— William H. Fauver, who has led the State Department of Corrections for almost two decades, submitted his resignation today. He is the first top official in the administration to step down as Gov. Christine Todd Whitman prepares for her second term.
Mr. Fauver's resignation comes as his department is under investigation for possible abuse of overtime. Last year, overtime totaled $73 million, or almost 10 percent of the department's $750 million budget. Officials attributed the overtime to severe prison overcrowding.
State officials said that earlier this year the department's internal affairs unit asked the State Division of Criminal Justice to look into an overtime abuse case involving a corrections employee. The employee, Sgt. Richard Huley, was suspended after racking up a $36,879 overtime bill, which Corrections Department investigators concluded was falsified by about $17,000.
At the time, Sergeant Huley was working directly for Mr. Fauver on an assignment at Bayside State Prison to collect information about the previous management team there.
Although administration officials confirmed today that the department was being investigated, Roger Shatzkin, a spokesman for the State Attorney General's office, would neither confirm nor deny whether Mr. Fauver was the target of an inquiry.
Jayne O'Connor, a spokeswoman for Governor Whitman, declined to comment on whether the overtime investigation prompted Mr. Fauver's resignation. ''He offered to resign because he is retiring, and the Governor accepted,'' Ms. O'Connor said.
Mr. Fauver, 65, has overseen the state's prison system under four governors, beginning with Brendan T. Byrne in 1978. He began working in New Jersey prisons in 1960 as a teacher at what was then called a reformatory school in Bordentown.
As Commissioner, he presided in recent years over 11 prisons that have been operating at about 50 percent above capacity. A new state prison opened this year, but state officials acknowledge that it will not do much to ease overcrowding, which is expected to worsen with new laws approved this year that extend prison time for some convicted offenders.
In his letter to Mrs. Whitman, Mr. Fauver said, ''As we discussed earlier this year, it was my desire to remain Commissioner until your re-election and help you in whatever way I could to win a second term.''
Mrs. Whitman released a statement thanking him for ''maintaining the safety and security of the prison system throughout his tenure.''
Other senior members of the Whitman administration are expected to step aside in the coming weeks, but Mrs. Whitman has not yet asked anyone to step down. She has appointed a team, headed by her chief of staff, Harriet Derman, and the State Attorney General, Peter Verniero, to help shape her agenda and administration for a second term.

Flying NatureAir (or other carrier) from San Jose to Puerto Viejo de Talamanca

The NatureAir website seems to think that it's possible to fly from San Jose to PV. However, when we try to book, it's a no-go, and the closest we can make it is Limon. Have any of you managed to get tickets on one of the little prop planes to Puerto Viejo? Or can confirm that flights do go there?
Also, does anyone know the best way to get to wherever NatureAir flies out of? I've gathered that it's a taxi drive away from SJO international, but I'm not sure if there's a bus that also…

What could we do/see that we could not do/see in Mexico? Bearing in mind that we have a toddler so won't be climbing volcanos or hiking through rainforests...

Jaco this weekend?
hey all I am taking a last minute trip and may head to Costa Rica for 7-10 days. The most convenient flight for me is SJO and from my research, the closest beach seems to be Jaco.
My question is, traveling alone is Jaco worth it? I know it's reputation -- I would like to experience some of the cuisine and nightlife, meet some people and even a fishing outing. Is it possible to do all of this while also having some peaceful time to have a beer and relax?
Open to any suggestions. Is there a…

Infrastructure development and better connectivity will help supply affordable housing in the suburbs, said Sandeep Mehta, president, Tamil Nadu chapter of the Confederation of Real Estate Developers Association of India.
In an interaction after inaugurating an exhibition, 'Construction, Architecture and Interiors 2013', he said the suburbs to the south, particularly along Old Mahabalipuram Road, up to Siruseri, – over 25 km from Adyar, continue to be in demand.
Similarly, along GST Road, NH 45, transactions continue to take place, despite the slow market conditions in general.
The critical factor is connectivity. If road and rail links are provided to the suburbs, affordable housing can come up in new areas. For instance, in cities like Bangalore, improved connectivity is opening up areas up to 40-45 km from the city. That is not feasible in Chennai's peripheries.
Though there is an oversupply in parts of the suburbs, prices continue to run high because of high costs. There has been an all-round increase in land costs, construction material costs and labour costs, Mr. Mehta said.
The exhibition an event for all segments of consumers, said Mr. Mehta. The exhibition is on up to August 18.
With stalls exhibiting a range of products and services, – for the residential sector and individual home needs, the event will benefit both customers and businesses.
On the second day, leading industry representatives will speak about a range of emerging concepts and trends including green buildings, , steel, kitchen and bathroom designing, new materials like uPVC and odourless paints.
Balaji K. Moorthy, president, Madras Cements, a Ramco Group company, the principal sponsor of the event, said it would help consumers understand the range of products and services available in the market. The construction industry is evolving continuously with new technology, products and services, he said.

If I could give this no stars, I absolutely would. Not only because the treatment did not work, but because customer service at Organix was honestly the worst I have ever experienced (and that is truly saying something).
I followed the directions word for word, carefully, and using the products they ask to use (a hot straightening iron). After having to spend close to 3 hours on my hair, followed by an awful 48 hours of greasy, smelly hair, I honestly saw NO RESULTS. I was hoping for anything - anything for me to feel like paying $15 was worth it, but honestly I should have just thrown my money in the trash can.
I then followed up with an email to Organix to see what they could offer - advice, insight, or a refund, but was offered instead - the worst customer service ever... After sending an initial inquiry email it took two weeks for any response in which they scolded me for not following directions. Seriously - if I didn't follow directions - why would I be complaining about an ineffective product? When I responded to that email, it then took 3 weeks for another response with this:
"I apologize but we do not offer a money back guarantee."
No greeting, no name, no nothing. I am hoping to be in touch with a supervisor or manager but after the service I have seen, I'm not expecting it. If I could report this company to somewhere I absolutely would. Any ideas?
So I guess the bottom line is, If you are prepared to waste $15, sore arms, and loads of time on this terrible product, then be my guest - go for it. For all those who are still thinking about it - I just suggest waiting for an online deal where you can go to a professional hair stylist (I just found a deal for $79) and actually see results.

My hair is wavy by nature and I do get some frizz. I tried this shampoo because it was recommended to me. I love the smell! It's not floral like other shampoos and almost has a cocoa scent to it. My hair is definitely less frizzy, but it doesn't work as well as so many reviewers have said it does.
This stuff smellls sooooooo good! It makes my hair very soft and moisturized. It doesn't really help it to be more straight:/ I wasn't really expecting that much of it a shampoo, anyways.
Very expensive and very drying on my hair! I thought it would work miracles but it did completely the opposite. Never buying this again, the only good thing was that it smelled lovely. I'm getting the Cocoa Keratin daily shampoo instead, it's got better reviews and it uses argan oil. I can't believe I chose Organix over Cocoa >:(

I really thought this was going to be a great product because it smells sooo soo good and it was expensive. I needed a really good shampoo because my hair needed it. This was a mistake it made my hair look more frizzy than before. I can't even brush it without ripping out hair. I will never buy this product again. The only good thing about it is that it smells wonderful, but I am sure I can find a shampoo/conditioner set that smells the same or close to it.

I found this shampoo to be extremely drying in my hair. That's not what I expect shampoo to do. It's supposed to be nourishing and hydrating and, in this shampoo's case, it's supposed to contribute to straightening the tresses. All of these claims were false and actually quite disappointing. The only positive aspect of this shampoo is the lovely coconut scent and the fact that it's cruelty-free. Unfortunately, that's not enough to get me to repurchase. I'd also like to point out that the Organix shampoos & conditioners contain many ingredients that are not "natural" or "organic" at all.
Love this Shampoo and the Conditioner for the following reasons:-
1. Smells lovely (coconut)
2. Leaves my long hair feeling clean
3. Leaves my hair feeling smooth and manageable
4. Doesn't make my hair fly-a-way
5. Great shampoo at a good price
My only gripe with is with the conditioner bottle. As you start to use it up squeezing the conditioner out can be quite difficult because it is quite thick ... either than or I'm lacking in upper body strength. Keep the bottle tipped upside and its easy though!!
I was fed up with Pantene making my hair fly-away and stripping my colour out. This is brilliant. Love it x
I tried this product for a month and I hate it. It left my hair completely unmanageable after the shampoo and conditioner of the same brand and line. I have thick, coarse hair and it made my hair so much harder to blowdry straight and gave me flyaways galore. I threw this out after a month. RIP shampoo.

I just finished writing my review for the matching conditioner which I purchased first and used a few times before getting the shampoo. I think the two work together because the conditioner by itself didn't do a whole lot but when mixed with the shampoo I'm pretty impressed. My naturally curly hair is highlight-damaged and I need protein to keep the curl pattern somewhat normal. I used the conditioner as a deep treatment and it did pretty good for something I paid less than $10 for. It's not Tigi's Dumb Blonde or Ouidad's Deep Treatment but if you're tight on cash like I was it's a godsend among shampoos and conditioners that are loaded with silicone. I love the smell of this shampoo and it does a good job cleansing without stripping my hair or scalp, nor have I had issues with scalp itch like I have with Garnier, the reformulated new Pantene (awful!) or Suave shampoo. It's not as moisturizing as Shea Moisture shampoos which I adore but right now I need the protein boost. Since this is not a product meant specifically for color treated or damaged hair you don't get enough slip in it and need not only the matching conditioner but also a dab of something else like Shea Moisture or Suave but I'm satisfied with my purchase so far.

This has got to be one of my favorite shampoos on the market aside from the Keratin Juvexin. My hair is past my waistline and is naturally wavy, almost curly, and it's very hit or miss when I decide to air dry it. However, when I use this shampoo along with the coconut milk conditioner there is a huuuuuge difference in my hair's texture. When I air dry it now I don't have to add anything else, no frizz serum, no leave-in, etc. I end up with really soft beachy waves. Now when I flat-iron my hair, it becomes so smooth that everyone thinks I got it rebonded. This shampoo and conditioner definitely saved me the trouble and cost of having to get that done, after all when your hair is over 2 feet long it would take forever and cost a sh*tload. I think $8 a pop is definitely worth it and I will definitely be buying this line again..

raise to be used for tuition assistance.Click here to see how schools are creatively raising pledges for this important cause! Be sure to save the date for the 3rd Annual "Soles for Catholic Education" Walk scheduled for Saturday, Oct. 17, 2015 and stay tuned for more details! IMPORTANT POST-EVENT INFO: Please log all check and cash donations on your school's team page. We will keep the site running through the end of the year, so be sure to reach out to all alumni and parishioners during the holiday season.
