Stepping Stones Bob McConville Over the past few months I've had the honor to tell you about a variety of habitats and wildlife that thrive throughout our magnificent state. Florida has such a unique and varied ecosystem that supports our plants and animals, and with the exception of our northern border, we are completely surrounded by water. Whether it be freshwater from our rivers, lakes and aquifers, or the saltwater from the gulf, bays or ocean, water seems to be the key to life here. However, it is not the only key. Florida's environment spans temperature zones ranging from the cooler, ... Read More »

Beautiful Bromeliads Add Pizzazz to Calusa Park
By Nancy J. Richie City of Marco Island Environmental Specialist Bromeliads are the perfect fit for Florida Friendly Landscaping (FFL) principals. They are the "right plant in the right place" for Marco Island landscapes, as they are species of plant that requires no fertilizer, maintenance or water, under normal conditions. The most familiar bromeliad may be the pineapple. They are colorful and come in so many species (more than 2,000) — displaying colors from red tipped, striped, silver, green and gold core leaves to name a few. Their flowers are just as exotic with large stems and bright colors in ... Read More »

joe97 Posts: 2,248To start off, Toyota is a living testament how an organization should be ran, especially given its size. I respect Toyota in many ways.
Now to the details:
Who can stop Toyota?
Camry sales are increasing at an almost alarming rate.
To be accurate, the Camry sales are increasing with the inclusion of the hybrid model recently, otherwise, flat. -
fezo Posts: 9,515Amusing title.
You certainly have a point there. The Accord hybrid was one of those rare eggs that Honda laid. I'm somewhat surprised at that in that in gives a lot of bang for the mileage. I'm guessing that folks have pretty well decided that they want mpg over 0 - 60 when it comes to hybrids. In this case Toyota bet right and Honda didn't. -
drfill Posts: 2,484You feel me. :blush:
How does the 2008 Accord fit into this? Will it slow down the Camry Love Train?
Camry sales may reach 500k this year, the first time in decades a car has sold 500k in a single year.
Tundra also has a chance to reach the once-thought outlandish goal of 200k in less than a full year. :surprise:
DrFill -
gagrice San DiegoPosts: 29,255If you were following the Accord Hybrid discussion prior to and after the fall, you would know that most posters were negative about Honda using the V6 to gain power rather than mileage. Toyota may or may not have picked up on that. They did the smart thing building the TCH with the 4 cylinder engine. And it is a popular car. If Toyota had gone for the HP rather than the economy as they did with the HH, Camry sales would not be where they are today. If you have a typical dealership you know how hard it is to unload a Highlander Hybrid. The ones on the lots here are advertised at below invoice. The RX400h is more popular because the wealthier buyers do not really care as much about mileage as performance and that GREEN feeling they get.
fezo Posts: 9,515It will be very interesting to see what happens with the 08 Accord.
It does seem that Honda is taking the approach of not wanting to lose face on what they perceive as the failure of the Accord Hybrid. They'll put out an Accord and then a separate Accord-like vehicle called something else in hybrid form.
Now I am one who favors the Accord over the Camry usually but I think it will be a long time before we ever see the Accord outselling the Camry again. -
gagrice San DiegoPosts: 29,255
fezo Posts: 9,515Easy enough to say because at the moment there aren't any diesel cars to buy.
I suspect that as the new diesels come in people are going to change their minds about them. Will they take to them like they are taking to hybrids? I don't know. To me the attractiveness of the diesel is that the technology has been around for ages, there's no ton of batteries in it and you don't have to teach yourself to drive exactly the opposite of how you normally do.
I actually welcome the competition. When somebody puts out a diesel hybrid that generates more energy than it consumes I'm there! -
drfill Posts: 2,484VW does have the Jetta TDI
And Mercedes has BlueTec
And jeep had the Liberty CRD.
I haven't gotten news of any stampedes for those vehicles.
If anyone can do it, Honda can, doh.
I believe Diesels will take off here, but not until 2010 or beyond, when GM releases their 4.5L that goes into the Silverado and Hummer. Dodge will have a smaller Cummins for the 2009 Dodge Ram as well.
The full-size trucks will start to rely on diesels in the future, and that push should trickle down at some point.
DrFill -
stever Viva Las CrucesPosts: 42,396diesel hybrid that generates more energy than it consumes I'm there!
That sounds like perpetual motion. Sign me up for some of that too. :shades:
I don't have much interest in a diesel (maybe a little VW pickup) and if I'm going to haul batteries around, I'd almost rather have an all electric car and skip the gas or diesel entirely. Or just engage the gas on long trips (I think Toyota is looking at this idea already).
Toyota is doing a bunch of battery research so hopefully someone will make a breakthrough. Batteries really aren't there yet I don't think.Moderator

joe97 Posts: 2,248We are on the same page (for once ), I think. Anyway, I did mention the Camry hybrid.
I pointed out the Camry sales was largely helped by the new hybrid model. If you subtract out the Camry hybrid sales, the regular Camry (and I think Toyota includes the Solara too), you would see the net results similar to last year's, of the same period.
Hybrid power didn't help the Accord.
Personally I think V6 and hybrid doesn't glue too well together. I am glad Honda is dropping the hybrid and coming out with the diesel entry. -
drfill Posts: 2,484Critics want to spin this so it's like Toyota is building exploding batteries or something.
Sony has also had problems implimenting the sensetive batteries, too.
Obviously the batteries aren't up to Toyota's standards yet, and they are working on it.
As successful as the Prius is, would you rush a replacement to market? :blush:

Visiting HostMODERATOR --Need help with anything? Click on my name!
drfill Posts: 2,484You know where the party's at! :shades:
GM and Dodge are in no rush to release detailed sales figures.
I'd be interested in how the Silverado and Ram did, with Tundra taking another large leap in sales, from 13k to 17k to 21k. :surprise:
I know Ford did 65k.
If you walk onto a Honda lot, do you see Accords stickering for less than $20k?
DrFill -
gagrice San DiegoPosts: 29,255Where is the profit margin if you have to give such big incentives to sell the Tundra? Its not working at So CA dealers. They are gorged with Tundra trucks sitting unsold. Oh, I forgot Toyota counts them as sold once the dealer takes possession. A convenient way to spin the sales figures. We put 21k Tundra vehicles on our dealers flooring. Of course they only sold a few of them. How many Toyota dealers in the USA? I know the one close to me has at least 30 Tundra trucks lining the lot that faces the street. Maybe a $5k rebate, 0% financing as long as you like and Toyota will make the payments. That would be a fair deal. :shades:
gagrice San DiegoPosts: 29,255Actually I have no idea. Someone today posted that Toyota and Honda count the vehicles when shipped. Maybe someone has some real data to back that up one way or another. If there are 1500 dealers with 10 of a model sitting unsold that is a lot of claimed sales. You would think that the automakers have an up to the minute sales figure from the dealer network. It is not rocket science. There has to be millions of unsold vehicles sitting on dealers lots all over the USA. Those should not be included in monthly sales figures.
drfill Posts: 2,484In regards to making sales, as Ford can't lose share fast enough. The domestics are legendary for their shenanigans when it comes to sold vs. registrations vs reporting dates.
Are you saying Toyota is inventing some way of counting deals no other maker is using?
You know Toyota is making money on more of their trucks anyway, as you WILL NOT find a Tundra for less than $20k, no matter if there is $3k or $4k on the hood.
Toyota itself, above and beyond invoice, is probably making $3-4 a unit anyway. Pickups trucks are one of the best ways for a company to actually make money selling vehicles. They're cash cows, that's why the domestics are so defensive about them.
GM is already counter-marketing against Tundra in their new commercials.
That profit should increase after this year, when the 5.7/suspension/platform is spread throughout Toyotadom.
DrFill -
drfill Posts: 2,484In a perfect world, probably not.
I can't verify if that is the case, but if it were, as far as they are concerned, the vehicle is as good as sold.
Toyota will never see that vehicle again, except in service. The dealer WILL retail that vehicle. They are paying insurance on it.
Don't think Toyota takes "We Owe" on delivery. :P
DrFill -
joe97 Posts: 2,248Their PR dept sure is keeping it on the down low!
Jetta sales are down 6%.
I think sales would be rising if diesel was in demand over at VW, considering gas prices. Just my opinion.
I believe Mercedes is having better luck.
Jetta's diesel entry is coming back for 2008MY. Diesel is not available for 2007MY. -
drfill Posts: 2,484Diesels can't gain traction, because they have to constantly adjust to emissions standards, not to mention performance standards and economy standards.
2 years on, 1 year off, is no way to build a following.
Most companies would go under if they worked 2-3 years, then took a year off.
Hard to build a business case for that. A lot of money has been lost on the diesel engine. At least in cars. :sick:

Junior's Pizza
- Details
- Published on Wednesday, 12 January 2011 16:02
- Written by Scott Joseph
When we did our search for best pizza in Orlando last year, I selected the finalists from among a list of known pizza makers who are highly regarded. I also solicited recommendations for a couple of "wild card" slots. One of those write-in candidates was Junior's Pizza. Junior's didn't get enough votes to be a finalist, but it had enough fans to have a respectable showing. I didn't have an opinion on it because I had never had Junior's pies.
I corrected that recently when I stopped by the little pizzeria on Dean Road just south of University Boulevard and took home a large pizza.
The sauce was the best part of the pizza. It was pulpy and had a good tomatoey flavor, but wasn't domineering. The crust was a perfect thickness, not too thick and not cracker thin. But it was a bit too soft and doughy. I attribute the slight sogginess to the moisture buildup in the take-out box. I wouldn't call the toppings ample but neither were they skimpy. I had sausage, pepperoni, onions and mushrooms. I would have liked a little more sausage than what landed on top.
The folks were friendly enough. When I placed the order over the phone, the young woman who took it down assured me at the end of our conversation that doing so was "no problem." That really put me at ease.
Junior's Pizza makes a nice pie, and if I lived in the area I would order from them again.
Junior's Pizza is at (and this, by the way, is a piece of information that is missing from the restaurant's Web site) 3920 Dean Road, Orlando. It's open for lunch and dinner daily. Here's a link to the Junior's Pizza Web site. The phone number is 407-677-9000.

The third and most intensive conservation technique performed on the daguerreotypes in the Princeton University Archives was the process of electro-cleaning. The conservator removed the plate from its enclosure and dusted the surface with air using an ear syringe. The plate was bathed in water, and then was electro-cleaned. This entails immersing the daguerreotype plate in a solution of ammonium hydroxide and deionized water, and applying a weak electric current through a thin silver bar above, but not touching, the surface of the plate, removing the corrosion from the plate. Once this was complete the plate was dried by a series of solvent baths, the cover glass was cleaned, the plate re-sealed and returned to its original enclosure or placed in a new one.
At some point this daguerreotype plate lost its case, preserver and mat. The resulting corrosion, oxidation, and fingerprints all but obscured the portraits of the three young men who are barely visible.
Once the daguerreotype plate was electro-cleaned, the newly visible details of the three young men emerged. Their eyes, hair, hands, and clothing now appear with great clarity.
Hover over the image with your mouse to see the image after treatment.
These nine daguerreotype portraits represent a handful of the original twenty portraits taken of members of the Class of 1853. They were made during the students' last year at Princeton. Found years later in a building on campus, the plates had lost their enclosures and, as seen here, had become covered with corrosion. The decision was made to electro-clean these images, and the results were stunning.

Unless I find myself at a Hemingway look-alike contest, I never order key lime pie from a dessert menu. It's one of those ubiquitous treats that I suppose is a classic for a reason, but I feel like I've had just about every version—and really, it's so 2003. Instead, I swoon over flavors of ice cream, cautiously choosing as though I were thumbing through a 1,000-page wine list.
On a recent Sunday I found myself wandering through the far reaches of Brooklyn's Red Hook neighborhood. Toward the end of a cobblestone street sat a large warehouse with a sign: "Steve's Authentic Key Lime Pie." I've heard of Steve's before. Many have, but as an outsider to the cult of all things key-limey, I've never made the trek out to try the place.
I found myself rolling my eyes, but then thought, What would Hemingway do? He said it clearly with, "All things truly wicked start from an innocence." So I figured what the hell and stepped inside.
To no surprise at all, I found a counter selling key lime pie. A menu listed pies by inch diameter: 8-inch, 10-inch…yawn. I scrolled down to something called "Swingles" and inquired.
I learned that Swingle is part of the scientific name for a key lime. At Steve's it is also the name of a frozen wündertreat: a 4-inch key lime pie dipped in chocolate and served on a stick. And since it is frozen, the lime custard develops the texture of…ice cream! For the first time ever, I felt that I didn't have to choose the flavor—the flavor chose me.
As Steve's Swingle melted in my mouth I became grateful for all those mediocre diner pies. The ones that have kept this classic alive long enough for someone to figure out how to make it really, really good.
Key lime pie is not made for defeat. Key lime pie is made to be frozen.

'5 to 7′ Review: An Unmitigated Disaster of Male Fantasy and Bad Writing
Movie Reviews By Daniel Walber on April 22, 2014 | Be the First To CommentSome movies do not seem possible. Their very existence is an absurdity of hubris, their production something of a financial miracle. Or, rather, a financial eccentricity. The largest projects are the ones with the most to prove, disastrous flops like the Korean War epic Inchon financed by the Unification Church or that time Richard Burton played Yugoslav president-for-life Josip Broz Tito. Yet there's a smaller version of this bizarre passion project, fantasies designed not to stroke the egos of cult leaders or dictators but Hollywood moguls. This time around we are in the hands of writer/director Victor Levin, Emmy-award winning co-executive producer of Mad Men and screenwriter of Win a Date with Tad Hamilton! The film is 5 to 7, a romance of almost unfathomably terrible proportions. The hero is Brian (Anton Yelchin), a young man without any sense of his own enormous privilege. Sure, he's currently a failed writer. He's also 24 years old, the son of very wealthy New Yorkers who presumably pay for his Manhattan apartment and, as we learn later on in passing, have already put away enough money for law school just in case. He sits at home all day re-writing his short stories and pasting rejection letters from literary magazines to his wall. The film gives him the luxury of near-constant voice over as the story begins, the first sign that Levin is entirely complicit in the narrative excesses that follow. Brian is the most inherently irritating protagonist of the year, but neither he nor his creator has any inkling thereof.
'Draft Day' Review: Finally, a Sports Movie for People Who Really Like Sports (and Split Screens)
Movie Reviews By Rob Hunter on April 10, 2014 | Be the First To CommentIt's NFL draft time, and the Cleveland Browns' general manager Sonny Weaver (Kevin Costner) is in a tight spot. The pressure is on from the public, the team's owner (Frank Langella), the coach (Denis Leary) and the rest of the organization to build the best team possible. He manages the unthinkable early on and gets his team the first pick, but it was a panicked move that actually does more harm than good. Now he's on the clock and running out of time — it's the ninth inning, he's in the end zone, and there's blood on the ice — oh, and his girlfriend (Jennifer Garner) just told him that she's pregnant. This is the kind of crazy day that can only fully be captured with split screens. Lots and lots of split screens. Thankfully director Ivan Reitman is happy to oblige. It's almost as if he just discovered the technology or is trying to win a contest. Draft Day is a poor man's Moneyball in the sense that the screenwriters probably watched Moneyball at some point and thought to themselves "what if a rogue personality went against the grain to build their, wait for it, football team?" In addition to changing sports though they also swapped statistics and logic for gut instinct and contrivance, replaced character depth with daddy issues and removed any semblance of dramatic suspense by setting the story entirely on one day and off the field.
New Trailer Shows That 'Muhammad Ali's Greatest Fight' Took Place Outside the Ring
Movie News By Samantha Wilson on August 27, 2013 | Be the First To CommentFor Muhammad Ali, one of the most highly publicized fights of his lifetime happened outside of the ring, when, for religious reasons, he declined to enlist in the army during the Vietnam War. As the Stephen Frears film Muhammad Ali's Greatest Fight details, the prize fighter's decision to claim conscientious objector status after being drafted and the legal battles that ensued caused massive public uproar and outrage at Ali's "audacity." You know, even though there were definitely white guys claiming CO status, too. The HBO film boasts a stacked cast, including Danny Glover, Frank Langella, Christopher Plummer, Barry Levinson, and Bob Balaban. What is particularly interesting is that rather than casting an Ali, the film solely uses archival footage during his scenes. At least we know his words are exactly as he said them? Check out the trailer for yourself:
Casting Couch: Jack Black and Will Ferrell Play 'Tag,' Cameron Diaz and Jason Segel Make a 'Sex Tape,' and More
Casting Couch By Nathan Adams on April 20, 2013 | Be the First To CommentWhat is Casting Couch? A handy way to keep up with what all of your favorite actors are going to be up to in the coming months and years. Does that make you a stalker? Today we've got word on who's the latest name to join George Clooney in Brad Bird's mysterious Tomorrowland. Few things in the world are funnier than Jack Black kicking Will Ferrell's dog off of a bridge, that much is certain. But take the hilarious animal cruelty out of the equation and would these two A-list comedians still be able to produce laughs together? We're about to find out, because THR is reporting that New Line is putting together a comedy called Tag, which has them attached as co-stars. The basic story of the film comes from a "Wall Street Journal" article about ten classmates from a Washington prep school, now all in their 40s, who get together one month out of the year to play an elaborate game of tag. This conceit, of course, is just the sort of manchild nonsense that these two should be able to knock out of the park, as long as they get a script everyone likes and the thing actually comes together.
A Brief History of the Oscar's Commanders-in-Chief
Academy Awards By Daniel Walber on November 9, 2012 | Be the First To CommentThe release of Lincoln could not be better timed. The plan must be to get as much of a boost from the presidential election as possible, yet at the same time avoid being cast as part of the political debate, by opening after November 6th. Steven Spielberg and Tony Kushner would rather their film be seen as a portrait of a great American hero above contemporary politics, or at least not see it hijacked by 21st century bickering. They have every right, even though upon closer inspection it might become clear where they stand. However, let's leave that for later and move on to some Oscar history. Only four men have earned Best Actor nominations for playing US Presidents, with Daniel Day-Lewis now certain to be the fifth. (For context, the Academy has over the years nominated nine Kings of England.) The list contains one other Lincoln, one Woodrow Wilson, and two Richard Nixons. That's a bit bleak, isn't it?
Review: 'Robot and Frank' Is Workably Charming, Until It Stalls Out
Film Festivals By Kate Erbland on August 16, 2012 | Be the First To CommentEditor's note: With Robot and Frank hitting limited release this week, here is a re-run of our review from Sundance, originally published on January 22, 2012. If Jake Schreier's Robot and Frank is too believed, the near future is very similar to the present – just with more hipsters enamored of things they don't understand and more robots consigned to help with everyday tasks. Both come, oddly enough, to a head in Schreier's feature debut about a man, his robot, and the things that bond them (including a distaste for said hipsters). The film is a wily mix of genres – Robot and Frank is a buddy comedy, a fish out of water story, a heist film, and a drama about aging in its many forms – and it mostly delivers on its immense promise when it works within the bounds of dry and clever comedy. But when the film allows itself to slack, it slumps almost irrevocably, and it never quite recovers from an unsatisfying and overemotional middle.
'Robot and Frank' Trailer: Frank Langella Is Going to Teach a Robot How to Rob Your House
Movie News By Kate Erbland on June 25, 2012 | Be the First To CommentTechnology is meant to make our lives easier – from the brain-crushing minutiae of everyday work to world-changing scientific advancements, the possibilities of technology are endless. And, in Jake Schreier's Robot and Frank, those possibilities even include criminal activities. In the director's first feature, Schreier imagines (thanks to Christopher D. Ford's original screenplay) a world where technology has advanced to the point that most homes now have their very own helper robot. The new robot tech is gradually taking over supposedly mindless jobs – inside and outside the home – including serving as nifty companions to the elderly. Salty old Frank (Frank Langella) isn't too sold on the idea of robots (to put it mildly), so he's quite put out when his kids (James Marsden and Liv Tyler) provide him with his own robo-helper. While Frank initially balks at the new addition to his home, the pair eventually form a bit of a friendship – which former jewel thief Frank then totally exploits in order to get back in the gem-heisting game. What a nice old man! Check out Langella robbing his neighbors with his robot pal in the first trailer for Robot and Frank after the break.
Kevin Carr's Weekly Report Card: February 18, 2011
Features By Kevin Carr on February 18, 2011 | Be the First To CommentThis week, Fat Guy Kevin Carr hit his head and spent the better part of his time wandering around Berlin looking for January Jones. Soon he unlocked the key to his past and realized he was an alien who is hiding among the people of Earth, hunted by big dudes with tattoos and trench coats. Fortunately, he woke up from this terrifying dream to realize the true nightmare… there's another Big Momma movie with Martin Lawrence and on-screen son Brandon T. Jackson in fat suits. To quote many a movie: "Noooooooooooo!"
'Unknown' Trailer Will Steal Your Identity
Movie News By Scott Beggs on October 22, 2010 | Comments (2)If someone made a movie that combined The Fugitive, The Game, and Taken, would that pique your interest? Of course it would. And, of course it will. The new trailer for Unknown (which apparently isn't called Unknown White Male anymore) shows a very confused, very pissed off, very revenge-fueled Liam Neeson as a man whose identity seems to have been stolen. The world that opens up is one of deception and conspiracy, and the coma he was in probably doesn't add much to his credibility. The bottom line: this trailer is intense and promises a complex film with plenty of asses being kicked.
Culture Warrior: Wall Street's Catharsis Index
Culture Warrior By Landon Palmer on September 28, 2010 | Comments (1)I was living in New York in September 2008, and took some time a couple of days after the stock market crash to visit way downtown Manhattan and see what was going on. The quietude was shocking, as the alarms being sounded on cable news networks made it sound like I shouldn't be surprised to see brokers peddling on the street, people running around on fire for no apparent reason, or CEOs segway-ing off of cliffs. As I rarely visited the Financial District, I had no idea whether or not this was normal. Maybe the crash had invoked a necessary meditation or speechlessness, a rare time of reflection for capitalists-run-amok. But the truth was that such panic wouldn't be visible on the street amongst the common folk (houses around the country owned by low and middle-income families told that story), rather the chaos was happening inside the buildings themselves. Oliver Stone's latest entry into his "W" trilogy dealing with major 21st century American events (alongside World Trade Center and W.), Wall Street: Money Never Sleeps, is an attempt to inquire on the conversations that may have gone on in those buildings.

Watch This: First Trailer for Richard Kelly's The Box
Movie News By Neil Miller on June 24, 2009 | Comments (16)Warner Bros. has released the long-anticipated first trailer for the next thriller from Donnie Darko director Richard Kelly this afternoon. And if you don't like Cameron Diaz, this one's for you…

Fat Guys at the Movies Ep. 94 – Punisher: Fat Zone
Features By Fat Guys at the Movies on December 5, 2008 | Comments (4)Kevin and Neil drive a Cadillac through the War Zone and take some shots at David Frost and Richard Nixon. They continue with their proselytizing for the cause of Fatguyenatics and the Church of Fatguyentology, in which they canonize their first patron saint.
Frost/Nixon Trailer Appears Officially, Along With Other Visual Aids
First Look By Neil Miller on August 22, 2008 | Comments (4)Yesterday we posted, and then were promptly asked to remove the first teaser trailer for Ron Howard's upcoming film Frost/Nixon. Oddly enough, the official release of the domestic trailer came today.
Frank Langella is a Tricky Dick in the First Frost/Nixon Trailer
First Look By Neil Miller on August 21, 2008 | Comments (10)If there is one thing that should be abundantly clear at this point, it is that this is an election year.
If Starting Out in the Evening were much shorter, it would be more easily forgivable.

Save More Than 65% at a Maldives Resort
The deal: Lindsey Wallace, the Maldives expert on Wendy's list of top travel specialists, has negotiated a special rate with Alila Villas Hadahaa, a brand-new environmentally friendly resort in the Maldives.
The dates: For travel between August 16 (the resort's opening date) and December 19, 2009. There is no book-by date.
The fine print: Luxury like this doesn't come cheap: An "Island Villa" (the least expensive room category) normally costs $1,183 per night. But Lindsey has negotiated a special rate with the resort: $790 per night, including all taxes and service charges, with every other night free. If you stay an even number of nights, you end up paying an average of $395 per night—which is more than 65% off the rack rate of $1,183.
Wendy's inside tip: You'll also need to pay for transfers to and from the resort. These start at $280 per person.
How to book: Lindsey Wallace of Linara Travel, is the only person who can get you this specially negotiated rate.

In the Persian cat, polycystic kidney disease is inherited as an autosomal dominant trait. Affected Persian cats usually do not develop chronic renal failure until later in adult life (3–10 years; average, 7 years). An affected 4.5-year-old male Persian cat referred with depression, lethargy, and anorexia that were present for 2 months before referring to us. Weight loss was one of the problems reported by the owner. In physical examination, pale mucus membranes, tachycardia, and stomatitis prevailed. Laboratory findings were compatible to that of chronic renal diseases. In ultrasonographic examination, right and left kidneys were 4.3 × 2 and 4.3 × 2.5 cm, respectively. Multiple renal cysts were seen in both kidneys. Cysts had thin walls with anechoic contents and strong distal echo enhancement. The cat died after 2 months probably due to uremia. Necropsy findings showed small locations of hemorrhage in the stomach. Sever Stomatitis was also noted. Necropsic examination of the kidneys showed several cysts in the cortex and medulla of both kidneys. Most of these cysts were filled with fluids. Microscopic examination showed many cysts of 800–8,000-μm diameters. Some cellular infiltrates were also seen in some regions. Interstitial connective tissues were developed around cysts.

This was a problem with the ubuntu repository, the xorg developers screwed up, and ubuntu didn't catch it. It's fixed now. Check the ubuntu forum for the (closed) thread which described solutions before the package was fixed.
- 08-23-2006 #5
No need to look for the fix, simply update again to correct the problem. The 'patch for the patch' is out now
Make sure you are online and log in at command line -
Code:sudo apt-get update sudo apt-get upgrade /etc/init.d/gdm restart

Scott Knowlton was watching an Old Spice commercial and saw a female character in the spot scribble her phone number down for a man.
The number? 866-617-4247.
Knowlton, a movie buff, said since the number didn't have the "555″ exchange that often signals the fakes found on TV, and he thought it was likely real, so he called it.
Knowlton, a producer for Buzz:60, a video news company in Manhattan, said he was so surprised when someone answered that he hung up.
He tried a second time, and when he got voicemail, he assumed he'd misdialed. So he hung up again.
When he called a third time, a woman answered. Knowlton explained that he'd seen the number in the commercial and was calling to see "what's up."
WATCH: Old Spice Commercial Kicks Off Super Bowl Ad Season
"And she said, 'Well, I'm glad you did because if you're interested, I'd like to give you two Super Bowl tickets.' And I was like come on. I didn't believe it at first," he said.
He came around soon enough.
"I said 'yes, thank you. I will take that. I would be happy to take those tickets off your hands,'" Knowlton, 36, told ABCNews.com.
He told colleagues at work and "Of course they all said 'Well, what's the number?' And everybody in the newsroom started calling the number."
It would do them no good, since Knowlton was one of only two people to get the fantastic offer.
The woman had given Knowlton her name and the name of a colleague and invited him to look her up so he could verify for himself that her offer was real.
"Once I saw that they actually worked for the ad agency that handles Old Spice stuff, I'm like 'Wow. This is legit,'" said Knowlton, who moved to New York from Philadelphia just last week. "I was amazed. I'm still kind of amazed."
Arnold Schwarzenegger Drinks Bud Light for $3M in New Super Bowl Ad
A spokesman for Old Spice said there had been more than 12,000 calls to the number as of Thursday night. Asked to put a dollar value on the cost of the package, he declined, but said the Super Bowl experience was priceless.
The campaign – the brand's first for a new collection of hair-care products — started online on Monday, and will start airing on TV on Sunday.
The commercial, from ad agency Wieden + Kennedy of Portland, shows participants in a business meeting. A man's well-groomed hair detaches from his head and crawls across the table to an attractive woman, who scribbles her phone number onto a piece of paper. The hair takes the paper, delivers it to the man and reattaches itself to his head.
The ad was posted to YouTube on Monday. As of Thursday night, it had been viewed more than 683,000 times.
In addition to the tickets, Knowlton will get $500 in spending money, $2,500 to offset taxes and a three-night stay at a four-star hotel in Times Square.
Knowlton's girlfriend, who is big on football, is looking forward to the hotel stay almost as much as she is to accompanying him to the game, he said.
Doritos Super Bowl Ad Competition Offers Winners $1M
Asked whether he'd had prior plans to attend the game, Knowlton laughingly replied: "No, no, that is way out of my price range."
Since his preferred team, the Chicago Bears, didn't make it to the big game, Knowlton was planning on watching it on TV just for the commercials.
He'll have a far different vantage point on Sunday when the Seattle Seahawks face the Denver Broncos at the MetLife Stadium in East Rutherford, N.J.
The second lucky winner of a pair of tickets was Quinn Gelestino of Frederick, Md.

National team competitions
Netherlands star Willemijn Kallenberg had reason for a double celebration in Tallin as she was crowned the Tournament MVP.
The shooting guard was particularly influential in helping her team achieve success during the last two days of the tournament when she poured in 29 points across the semi-final and the final.
Netherlands continued their summer of remarkable success in Division B basketball as they followed up promotion to Division A by claiming the gold medal with a 71-59 success over Croatia.
Having already won top flight status in the U20 Men and U20 Women categories, the U16 women made light work of overcoming Croatia with a superb second half performance.
t was a glorious night in Tallinn for Croatia and Netherlands who both achieved promotion to Division A after picking up wins against Denmark and Slovak Republic to make it to the Final of the tournament.
Croatia destroyed Denmark 80-58 with a devastating first half performance. Already 19-10 ahead after the opening period, they blew their opponents away completely before half time when they outscored the Danes by 30-13.
Netherlands snatched victory from the jaws of defeat after twice blowing leads down the stretch to lose an overtime heartbreaker 71-73 against Denmark.
Leading 65-56 with four minutes of regulation left, they failed to score another bucket and even in overtime they still managed to make the same mistake again.

skinny in all the right places
these slim pants have style for days. legs that are nicely tailored in at the knees and widen out with extra large ghetto zip slits for that skinny boot leg look. i got one pair in black cord and another in blue denim to mix and match, and so that one pair doesn't get completely thrashed during the season. one thing i gotta say is that the cords do feel better and more burly while the denims feel a little thinner. the mesh lining could be a little more comfy (for instance, volcom's mesh lining is way softer and thicker). but overall, i'm digging the slim style of these pants; perfect for park lappin'. how about a little more variety in the colors next season though, burton?

dELiA*s, Inc. (NASDAQ: DLIA), a direct marketing and retail company comprised of two lifestyle brands primarily targeting teenage girls and young women, today announced the results for its third quarter of fiscal 2011.
Walter Killough, Chief Executive Officer, commented, "While we were pleased to see solid performance in most categories during the third quarter, we did miss our sales and margin expectations. The majority of the shortfall was due to fashion misses in key item tops purchased under our previous merchandise strategy. We are encouraged by early reads on our most recent deliveries as we are seeing positive consumer response to both key items as well as other new products that reflect our go-forward merchandise strategy. In addition, we have better planned promotions for holiday this year which combined with our improved merchandise assortment should lead to improved sales and profitability performance in the fourth quarter."
Mr. Killough continued, "We are confident that with the initiatives we have underway in merchandising and marketing we will have a strong foundation from which to drive long term growth in sales and profitability."
Fiscal Third Quarter Results
Total revenue for the third quarter of fiscal 2011 decreased 4.2% to $58.1 million from $60.6 million in the third quarter of fiscal 2010. Revenue from the retail segment decreased 2.7% to $36.2 million, or 62.3% of total revenue. Revenue from the direct segment decreased 6.5% to $21.9 million, or 37.7% of total revenue. Total gross margin decreased to 32.3% in the third quarter of fiscal 2011, compared to 34.3% in the prior year quarter, predominantly reflecting reduced merchandise margins related to markdowns in the retail segment and the deleveraging of occupancy costs. Selling, general and administrative (SG&A) expenses were $23.1 million, or 39.7% of sales, for the third quarter of fiscal 2011 compared to $24.5 million, or 40.3% of sales, in the third quarter of fiscal 2010. The decrease in SG&A expenses in dollars and as a percent of sales reflects selling and overhead expense reductions.Check Out Our Best Services for Investors

This may be a funny question to ask around Thanksgiving but, we have a Wild Turkey visiting our bird feeder and I'd like to feed her. She's interesting to watch. What do they prefer to eat?
Turkeys are fun to observe! Wild turkeys like open areas for feeding, mating and habitat. They use forested areas as cover from predators and for roosting in trees at night. A varied habitat of both open and covered area is essential for wild turkey survival. If you live in a suitable area you may find turkeys frequenting your bird feeders in the early morning and late afternoon.
Wild Turkeys are omnivorous, foraging for nuts as well as various seeds, berries, roots, grasses and insects. Turkeys also occasionally consume amphibians and small reptiles like snakes. If you want to feed Wild Turkeys, I would recommend our Wild Birds Unlimited Wildlife Blend. It's a nice mixture of peanuts, sunflower seed and corn. Our Choice Harvest Blend also has enough tree nuts, sunflower seeds, dried cherries, and suet nuggets to satisfy any turkey as well as a wide variety of other birds.
Wild Turkey Meleagris gallopavo
The birds have a naked blue/red head, dark glossy, iridescent body feathers, and a barred copper colored tail. The males are brighter than the females and have a central breast tassel and red wattles on the face and neck. The adult males, known as toms or gobblers, normally weigh between 16 and 24 pounds while the females, known as hens, usually weigh between 8 and 10 pounds.
Once common throughout Michigan, the turkey population is starting to recover from overhunting and loss of habitat in the 20th century. A group of turkeys has many collective nouns, including a "crop", "dole", "gang", "posse", and "raffle" of turkeys.
