Nice Rug Bought this to transition from kitchen space to living room. Color is very accurate to picture. It is a little on the thin side, but still very good. Our younger child spilled some water on one edge and it did ripple up a bit, but it settled itself completely once it was dry.

Indoor Gold Abstract Area Rug I was very excited to get this rug and it looks wonderful on the floor but the corner binding has frayed and continues to unravel. I love the rug but hate the fact that it needs repair after only one week. Very sad.

Rug Colors Are Much Darker Than Pictured! The colors online appeared more muted and the lighter areas stood out more, but in reality there is more black and red areas than any other color. Not what I expected at all. If I had realized that the rug colors were this different, I would have stayed away. I kept it because I didnt want the hassle of trying to ship it back.

Love It I was reluctant because I saw mixed reviews about the plushness of this area rug. Some said thin, some said soft, some said like burlap or an outdoor rug. The rug is thin, but very soft. It is not a thick, heavy rug, but it does well in a living room. In fact we bought two, one for living room and one for dining room. The underside is like a burlap, but it is not an outdoor rug. I was concerned about it "unrolling" and staying down, but no worries, it does. We've had the rugs about a month, it lays flat and does not move. And, the pattern is cool, we are very happy with this purchase.

Disappointing Purchase This was our first purchase -- and first return -- on overstock.com. While some of the reviews indicated the rug was thin, we were more interested in the pattern and color for effect in a low-traffic area. I supposed with the rug rolled out for an ariel photo, the design is fine, but when rolled out on the floor for use, the pattern is lost. The red (particularly in one corner) was much more brash than shown in the picture. The red and black were not muted together at all -- much more of a "pixelated" appearance. Overall, the quality was just not there.

Great quality for the cost This rug is the first product that I ordered on Overstock.com. I am very impressed with the quality of the product for the cost. I used it in my dining room and it looks great with the wall coloring. The colors of the rug are so vibrant. Everyone in the family loves it. I plan on buying another area rug in the near future for my living room. Also, I received the rug along with another item within three days. I couldn't ask for a better response from the "O". Thanks and you will be hearing from me again......

Channel 6 News - Search Results
WASHINGTON -- The FBI is asking for help identifying victims of a teacher suspected of drugging and molesting young boys.
William James Vahey, 64, committed suicide last month after his employer saw a thumb drive that contained pornographic images of young boys. The FBI says he was teaching 9th grade world history and geography at the American Nicaraguan School at the time.
Vahey was jailed for child molestation in 1969 in California. Since that time, investigators say he worked as a teacher and basketball coach at various American schools around the globe.
FBI officials believe he may have preyed on students for decades in these positions. "I've never seen another case where an individual may have molested this many children over such a long period of time," says one FBI official who specializes in crimes against children.
Authorities say Vahey drugged his victims, believed to be boys between the ages of 12 and 14, and those victims may be unaware of what happened to them. Vahey allegedly confessed to a school administrator who confronted him about the images. He reportedly admitted to preying on boys his entire life, giving them sleeping pills prior to the assaults.
At this point in the investigation, authorities are working to identify victims. Anyone who believes they may have been a victim is urged to contact the FBI to aid investigators and seek services through the Office for Victim Assistance.

Nicki Minaj Gives Lil Wayne A Lap Dance At Billboard Music
Nicki Minaj proved, with her raunchy performance at the 2013 Billboard Music Awards, that she can be a lady on the streets and a freak on the stage.
She walked the red carpet in an elegant red gown, but oh how quickly things changed. The rapper gave Lil Wayne a lap dance, "High School" style.
Twerking like a woman possessed in her shredded leggings, midriff-baring crop-top, and high heels, she straddled and writhed against Weezy. Hard.
The big finish to Nicki Minaj's explicit twerk fest involved her completely bent over suggestively fanning her fingers between her legs.
We haven't seen a "High School" twerking display like this since ... well, the Scripps Ranch twerk team video that got 33 high school kids suspended.
During the performance of their song "High School," Minaj, 30, had a dancer bring out a chair for Lil Wayne, 30, to sit down, before she began her sexy dance.
The "Super Bass" singer, clad in black leggings, a crop top and heels, gyrated on her label-mate's lap while he looked on incredulously.
It was a performance to cap off her night of wins - Minaj took home three Billboard awards, including Top Streaming Artist, Top Rap Artist and Top Rap Album for "Pink Friday: Roman Reloaded."
Lil Wayne, seated, and Nicki Minaj perform at the Billboard Music Awards at the MGM Grand Garden Arena on Sunday, May 19.

Let's take a look at how you and the family can rediscover Christmas with Children's Christmas Books Christmas is the season of the gimmes. Gimme toys, gimme electronic gadgets, gimme gift certificates. That's not the real meaning of Christmas. It's not about the parties or the sharing of tasty meals, either. All the holiday gift giving, all the parties, all of the shiny decorations can take over the meaning of Christmas and it can get swallowed up. Christmas books can help remind you of what it's really all about. The simple Christmas gatherings of yesteryear have turned into one stress after another until you can feel like you're stuck in a maze. With the hustle and bustle of everything going on, getting off track and lost in the maze of focusing on material stuff happens. But it doesn't have to stay that way. You can get back on track and have the true meaning of Christmas foremost in your holiday celebrations. Image courtesy of Amazon UK - The Best Christmas Present in the World

Yes it works! I've used it for a few years now. Just didn't get around to posting a review. It takes time for it to work. I'd say about 6 weeks. U can use it every other day after that. It made my lashes longer fuller looking and thicker too. Oh and curl better! I buy it at CVS. Will always use it, don't ever change anything about it please, its so inexpensive compared to others out there. One bottle lasts 6 months or more. Be patient with it and you will love it!

OK my lashes were at a pretty good length to start with for an Asian but after using this product my lashes has gotten to the length that sometimes when I blink I could feel it hitting my glasses!!
I have bought another 2 bottles to stock up, that's how much I love this product!

this stuff really works on my eyelashes - it took several weeks to notice it. Not so much on my brows, but I'll keep working on those.
4 out of 4 people found this review helpful. Did you? Yes No
It has been exactly two months since I've used this.
Every single night, ok so I missed a couple of days, I put this thing on my lashline and brows. I prayed to hair faeries for brows and lashes lush and long, beautiful and strong.
Have my lash & brow dreams come true? Well, kind of.
I noticed no apparent difference for weeks and months until yesterday. My lashes have seemed to have grown over night.
A noticeable difference in length, albeit sparcely. I am going to continue to use this and see if there will be more length and hopefully more girth to my wimpy lashes.
I paid $60 plus 14.5% tax here in Canada. Let's see how much lashes above mentioned amount buys for this MUAer.
Will update when I run out of this.

I have been using this for about three weeks and YES it's already working! I took before pics and will take after pics in about six weeks but it has already made my top lashes a bit longer and it has def made the shorter lashes near the inner corner of my eyes longer and fuller. I am very excited to see the results in six weeks, and i will update my results then. BTW i purchased mine on amazon, it was much cheaper there and i havent had any problems with darkening or itching so far!

I love this. It took about 6 weeks of applying to my top lashes only everynight to show but then my eyelashes looked great.This made my lashes longer... more curled and darker.
I had no adverse reaction although I don't have sensitive skin. I close my eyes and put this on so naturally I think alittle goes onto your bottom lashes but if you put this on your bottom lashes as much as the top ones you'd probably end up with them touching your skin. Once you get your desired length you need to apply about every other day or every 3/4 days to maintain because if you stop using completely eventually when you shed those lashes and grow new ones they will go back to your old length. I am now using on my eyebrows to see if it works and i'm still on my first tube.
After all these products the promise miracle like effects then pretty much do nothing... I was so suprised this actually works! Highly Recommended!!

Yes it works!
....but it takes 12+ weeks.
When I first started using this, I woke up with irritated lids every morning. It looked exactly like I had applied red/burgundy see-through eye liner. My lids also itched.
I had bad reaction to Revitalash, too, but nothing intolerable, and this was cheaper. So, I persevered. Clever or stupid, I don´t know!
I first started seeing good results at 12 weeks mark, and since then, the results are very good. My lashes ARE longer. At the outer corner it looks like I am wearing extensions or falsies. My lower lashes are longer, too.
Seems like it does not irritate my lids quite so much anymore, but I would not say it does not irritate them at all.
I plan to use it nightly for a week or two more to see if the results will be even better, then to use it every other night or a couple of nights a week for upkeep.
This way I am hoping the irritation will keep to minimum while getting maximum results.
Do not get this into your eyes, and getting it on your lashes is useless, too. Just the very lashline.
If you get it on your lashes you´ll wake up with gummy residue on them in the morning, not a nice look.
I have started my second tube and WILL order more.
EDIT Jan 2012: I stopped using this product, as I have an eye problem which was aggravated by the itching --> rubbing. It made my lids itch more or less ever day and every night, and I just did not want to take it any more, even though it did make my lashes longer. Back to Talika Lipocils it is, sigh.
Love this stuff. I did not experience any darkening, soreness, or irritation of my eyelids. Didn't think it would really make a difference so I didn't bother taking a "before" picture, and I'm kind of kicking myself for it. This is not Latisse, and it makes no claims to growing your lashes, it's marketed as a conditioner of sorts. However, after 7 weeks of religious nighttime use have noticed a signifcant increase in the length of my lashes. Seriously. They look amazing now. And with a curl and a bit of mascara, they look like falsies. Natural-looking falsies, of course.
Again, this is not a growth product, and did nothing for the thickness or density of my lashes. It just lengthened them. I think this is because the conditioner may prevent lash fall-out and allows them to grow longer during their cycle? Not sure. Either way, I highly reccomend this stuff if you are patient and dedicated. You can get it for less than half price on amazon.

I started this on October 8th. In the beginning, I noticed massive shedding. Maybe it was from the RapidlLash or me noticing/caring more about my lashes, ha. Didn't really get intense irritation or eyelid darkening.
Been using it for 4 months and I can clearly a difference in the length! I am glad I tried it :)! It takes patience.
1 out of 1 people found this review helpful. Did you? Yes No
I have preiviously used a Estee lauder lash conditioner but the purpose of that its to condition and ModelCo lash stimilator which i only used on a couple times so i didnt see any results
With this product at first i was abit lazy but didnt eventually used it a month straight i did see result but they werent like a wow factor like i didnt notice a few extra lash grow and like one or two lash were longer then the rest but u know it wasnt like i was totally amazed the new extra lash that grew were ery short and not very noticable a con to these lil lash grow were some grow under my normal longer lashes and when i apply masacara cos they were short my mascara drag down the lash so it wasnt a good look ..
Since becoming addicted to youtube i heard good things about lipocil so i might give that a go but not availble in Australia hav to try to get my hands on it somehow....

Canonical Announces Ubuntu Smartphones
Phone vendor partnerships bring Mark Shuttleworth's dream of Ubuntu on a phone a step closer to reality.
Canonical crossed a major hurdle in its effort to enter the mobile arena with the announcement that two mobile phone makers have agreed to manufacture Ubuntu smartphones. The Chinese Meizu MX3 and Spanish BQ Aquarius phones will appear in 2014 Ubuntu on the inside. Although these phones are not yet operational, prototypes appeared this week at the Mobile World Congress in Barcelona.
Canonical announced its plan to enter the smartphone market in 2011 and since then has been very public about rallying interest and support for the goal. The company even attempted a massive but unsuccessful crowdfunding effort last year to develop the Ubuntu Edge phone as a prototype superphone that could operate as a mobile device but still run standard Linux desktop applications. However, real traction in the smartphone market requires an alliance with a hardware vendor, and Canonical's limited success with establishing hardware partnerships had caused many to believe a real-world Ubuntu phone was still far in the future.
The agreements will give Canonical valuable experience with the smartphone business and allow them to start building a resume that could lead to future phone deals.

WASHINGTON, June 10 /PRNewswire-USNewswire/ -- As government authorities reel from a record breaking year of food recalls and a new nationwide Salmonella outbreak, a new book brings to light the science -- and the politics -- behind food irradiation, a misguided technology being promoted by the food and nuclear industries.
Written plainly and passionately, Wenonah Hauter's Zapped! Irradiation and the Death of Food is timely and fact-filled. The book details the rise of irradiation in the American food supply and makes the case that irradiation is expensive, impractical, ineffective, and potentially dangerous.
"While the public is being sold on irradiation as a solution to the growing crisis of foodborne illness, this technology is used to satisfy the food industry's ever-growing craving to cut costs and increase profits," writes Hauter in the preface to Zapped! "However, irradiation does virtually nothing to actually improve food quality."
"Irradiating dirty meat doesn't make it clean," says Hauter. "Whenever there's a food poisoning outbreak, we hear about irradiation. But irradiation is a bad idea for meat and completely impractical for vegetables such as lettuce, spinach, or tomatoes. And to add insult to injury, the government may take away the labels currently required for irradiated food."
Rather than deceive the public that "zapping" food will make them safer, Hauter and her co-author Mark Worth urge the food industry and government to address the real problems in food production -- too-fast processing lines, too-long distances for food to travel, and dirty conditions at plants.
Americans have a right to know what is happening to their food and to speak out against unsafe and unhealthy practices. Zapped! will empower citizens to do just that.

Lady Gaga took over Saturday Night Live last weekend as the host and musical guest, but two other celebrities almost stole the show – Kanye West and Kim Kardashian. Alright, so the two of them weren't actually there but they might as well has been with the skit "Waking Up With Kimye."
Stepping into the shoes of Kimye were Nasim Pedrad and Jay Pharaoh, who gave a pretty accurate portrayal of the famous couple. Seriously, Jay's Kanye was just too good. Gaga guest starred in the skit as well, playing Apple Store employee Karen who thinks she's brought in to fix Kim's Apple computer!

May 17-18, 2014 Show Notes
Oklahoma Gardening show notes from May 17-18, 2014. (#4046)
Bear Creek Farms
In this segment we visit Bear Creek Farms in Stillwater, Oklahoma. Owned and operated by Vicki and Terry Stamback, Bear Creek Farms has been producing specialty cut flowers for over 17 years. There is much more to producing a cut flower than many people might realize. At Bear Creek, all flowers are produced from seed. Seeds are sown into small trays and left to germinate. Once plants produce their first set of true leaves they are transplanted into plugs. These are grown until a healthy root system develops. From here, plants either move into a greenhouse or the field. The greenhouse is reserved for high value crops and those that struggle in Oklahoma's challenging climate. It is also used for winter flower production.
In the greenhouse, space is a premium. Plants are set close together which not only conserves space but also encourages long, straight stems. Transplants are planted in successions one to two weeks apart to ensure a continuous supply of fresh cut flowers.
In the field, crops change from week to week. Over 250,000 plants are grown in the fields each season, representing some of the 150 different flower species grown at Bear Creek. When mature, flowers are harvested into buckets of water and transported to the head house for processing. There, foliage at the base of the stem is removed and flowers are wrapped in bundles. The stems are cut once again as a bundle to ensure an even length and bundles are set in one of several solutions and held in cold storage until delivery.
Grafting Pecans
In this segment we visit Mr. Dick Hoffman and Hoffman Pecan Farm in Payne County for a grafting demonstration. There are two primary styles of grafting utilized in pecans. A bark or in-lay graft is used on trees 1 to 4 inches in diameter. For smaller root stocks between ½ and ¾ inch in diameter, the four-flap method is employed.
The modified inlay bark graft process is one of the most convenient methods of pecan grafting. It involves cutting off most or the entire top of a small growing pecan tree, grafting desirable new graftwood at the cut, and then watching the tree produce a new top. This is done during April and May in Oklahoma, soon after growth starts and the bark begins to slip on the stock trees. The bark on the scion, or graftwood, must be tight, however. Stock for the grafts must be dormant when cut during the winter usually in late December through February and kept in cold storage until used. Successful bud growth is on the way when callus tissue forms between the stock tree and the scion. Extension Fact sheet HLA-6204 Bark Grafting Pecans describes the process demonstrated here in detail.
Sometimes called the "banana" graft, the four-flap grafting technique is one of the easiest ways to convert small seedling pecan trees and branches of larger trees. The necessary cuts and "fits" of the four-flap graft are not as precise as for most other pecan propagation methods; therefore, it is a good method for beginners. The four-flap graft allows much cambium contact between the scion and the stock. This cambium contact is necessary for callus formation and subsequent successful graft union. This graft works best when the graftwood (scion) is slightly larger than the stock (trunk or limb).
You may begin grafting when the bark slips freely. Slipping is when the bark will separate easily from the wood. Normally, this is late April in southern Oklahoma and early May in the northern parts of the state. Four-flap grafts can be installed during the same period of time as the common bark graft. Due to heat, grafting season usually ends by early June. Grafting is most successful on cool and cloudy days. Avoid days with high temperatures and drying winds. Learn more about four-flap grafting in OCES Fact Sheet HLA-6230 Four-Flap Grafting of Pecans.

Hello, I'm hoping to get some help on how/when to cut back a black-eyed susan. Many of the blooms are well passed their prime and I've been cutting them off individually down to the second or third leaf. Would it be better to just chop it all back to a height of 12-18" (or something) instead to, I'm hoping, promote a second round of blooms? Thanks much Steve |

It hasn't been my experience that black-eyed Susans are repeat bloomers. They bloom mid-summer where I am and the flowers last, literally, well into the fall. I've grown many varieties of BES over the years and have just left them alone to do their thing with no attention from me aside from admiration. I was, however, surprised to find this sentence on the Missouri Botanical Garden's website: "Deadhead spent flowers to encourage additional bloom and/or to prevent any unwanted self-seeding." Looks like we both learned something new today. If your BES flowers are well past their prime, they're simply producing viable seed for next year's plants. I find they do self-seed around my garden but since I love them, I just let them do so. |
Here is a link that might be useful: Missouri Botanical Garden
Goldfinches love BES seeds, which is one reason to let them go. |
Yeah, at this late stage in the year, I'd just let them go. If you have true BES, Rudbeckia hirta, it's a biennial and you need some seeds to continue. |
Thanks for the replies. I'm kind of torn. I have definitely seen secondary blooms--smaller and on shorter stalks--which started blooming about 3 weeks ago, and most of what I've read about some BES (mine is a perennial not a biennial) mention a strong possibility of secondary bloom periods (I'm at northern edge of zone 8). Most of the blooms are pretty ragged. So this is why I'm still a little uncertain: deadhead individual blooms or just chop. If anyone has ever done the gross chop with some success (ie, a second, less impressive bloom) I'd love to hear about your experience. Thanks! |

Rudbeckia 'Goldsturm' will probably not rebloom unless you live in a zone with a very late first frost. Here in Z5, they have just started blooming and will last for another few weeks. I don't cut them back because I love the way the yellow finches enjoy the seed heads. |
I think it's a Goldstrum. Because of Z 8's very long growing season, we often have some perennials and most annuals still flowering well into November. I've never seen a goldfinch feeding on the seeds, but that may be because the flowers are very close to a picture window. |
I've never noticed Goldfinches eating at Goldstrum either, but I've seen them and painted buntings eating at wild Rudbeckia hirta....and goldfinches would literally eat every green seed on my echinacea (never could collect seeds) long before maturity. They were brazen about it...if startled away, they'd be back in 3 minutes. |
- Posted by pitimpinai z6 Chicago (My Page) on Tue, Aug 5, 14 at 14:40
riversurf, if you would like to prolong Rudbeckia's blooming season, I would like to suggest that you add R. triloba to your garden. It is a biennial and the last Rudbeckia to bloom in my garden and lasts until September. Mind you, R. triloba reseeds most prolifically for me. This Rudbeckia is much taller with flowers much smaller than any other R. If you would like to try it, I will save some seeds for you. I cut off 'Goldsturm' spent blooms because I don't want anymore 'Goldsturm' in my garden, but leave R. hirta alone until the seedheads are completely dry, they I snap them off and spread them all over my garden. Their bright face always cheers me up every summer. ~~~~~~~~~~ |
Thanks pitimpinai. I will look into triloba. My space is very limited, and not "officially" full sun, though most of the full-sun plants I have do reasonably well. My most fortunate find a couple of years ago was Rudbeckia fulgida var. speciosa Viette's Little Suzy, which grows 12-16" high. Perfect size for my little space and which allows me a little more variety that the full-size Rudibeckia's take up. I'm slowly phasing out my few big ones for this little beauty. |
Rudbeckia triloba is a denizen of the moist shady areas...they like sun, but usually don't grow in more than half sun. I also heartily recommend it as a workhorse...though you must readjust your mind..the flowers are small, but many. In great native habitat, triloba sometimes reaches 6 1/2 feet, but more avg is 2 1/2 or so. |

Leaking juvenile facility roof may be deemed county emergency
By Amy Lavalley Post-Tribune correspondent July 16, 2014 12:27PM
Updated: August 18, 2014 9:52AM
VALPARAISO — A leaking roof in the secure part of the Juvenile Service Center means that every time it rains, the fire alarm system goes off and, most times, the building has to be evacuated, including the staff and the children in custody there.
"Things are getting pretty dire," Alison Cox, director of the Juvenile Detention Center, told the Porter County Board of Commissioners Tuesday.
The county already has a contract with E.C. Babilla for just under $370,000 to replace the roof on the east portion of the facility, said Stephen Kromkowski, principal architect with the firm DLZ.
That work hasn't begun and, when it was considered, the other portion of the roof was not leaking, he said. The additional work, at a cost of about $130,100, could be taken on with a savings of about $6,800, because all of the material for a synthetic slate roof could be delivered on site at once.
"We view this as an unforeseen condition," Kromkowski said.
The building has been evacuated during a court session, Cox said, and four times over the weekend when storms and the resulting leaking roof set off the sensors for the fire alarm system, which also prompted calls to the Valparaiso Fire Department.
The constant evacuations are disruptive and put staff and children at risk, she said.
"If we don't reroof that part of the building, we are going to have to replace the fire alarm system," which will be even more costly, Cox said, adding she also fears the facility won't pass a fire inspection and the children there will have to be housed in neighboring counties. "I'm greatly concerned."
Pending the go-ahead from county attorney Betty Knight, who was not at the meeting, commissioners declared the situation an emergency, which would allow the work to be done without going out for bids.
If Knight said the leaking roof does not meet the criteria for an emergency, Commissioners President John Evans, R-North, said the work would be let out for bids.
Funding for the roof work will come from the remainder of a bond for the facility, which will cover $85,000, and from the county's cumulative capital development fund.

10 javelinas found dead on Tucson's east side
TUCSON, Ariz. -- The state Game and Fish Department is investigating the killing of 10 javelinas whose remains were found near the section of Saguaro National Park on Tucson's east side.
The javelinas' remains were found in the area of Old Spanish Trail and Irvington Road on Thursday after apparently being left overnight.
Game and Fish spokesman Mark Hart says investigators couldn't immediately tell whether the animals were shot because their meat was taken.

Will Salvia pratensis, viscosa, transylvanica, turkestanica flower in the first year form seed? I started the seed in Dec. 2004 - Jan. 2005 and they are in 2-4 inch pots. Height is 2 -6 inches. If I set them outside in the garden in May will they flower this summer? |
Follow-Up Postings:
S. pratensis and transylvanica should flower this year. Turkestanica, usually described as a biennial, won't bloom till next year. Don't know about viscosa. Steven |

It does list alot of parts but they are all standard electrical connectors that you can get in Radio shack or home depot, the dealer should stock these parts for any kind of elec repair. Its not really hard at all to do, I did it in about an hour.

mddrop Posts: 2I currently own a 2001 Tahoe LT that has been no less than perfect. Thinking of purchasing 2003 model for my wife. Looking at MSRP of about $39,000. What kind of final purchase prices has everyone been negotiating. Have not started the dreaded dealer to dealer price squabbling, but is it realistic to expect prices closer to $31,000 - $32,000 down from the original $39,000 MSRP.
Thanks for any feedback! -
poswald Posts: 38I have an 01 Tahoe LT. Has anyone replaced their foglight bulbs with HID style bulbs? If so what kind and where did you get them? I am having a hard time finding 880 bulbs. PIAA does not make them. Also, 893 bulbs are a little easier to find and fit in the 880 spot but are 37.5 Watt versus 27 Watt. Do you think that this cause any problems with factory foglight circuit or wiring? Thanks.
ianshaw Posts: 119Yikes - my 02 LT Tahoe with the 5.3l has suddenly taken a turn for the worse. It has approx. 5000 miles on it. For the first 3500 miles or so I was getting mpg ratings between 16-18 mpg. However, the last three times I have checked, I have been in the 13.5 mpg range! One time, I believe it was 12.5 mpg. All of the miles on these checks were interstate driving at approximately 80mph. Although I drive relatively fast, I never rod it up hills and tend to accelerate slowly. However, two of the three checks were done after using only about 1/2 of the gas in the tank and I have placed a ski carrier (an enclosed box that is very aerodynamic from front to back) on the cargo rack.
Does anyone have any suggestions for why this might be happening? Could the ski box be making that much difference? Any suggestions on mechanical defects that might be causing the problem?
mddrop - I purchased an 02 LS Tahoe about 1 year ago with an MSRP of approx. 38,500. The dealer sold it to me for $31,000 (which according to Edmunds.com, is a little under invoice cost.) I paid about $400 over invoice for the 02 LT Tahoe that I currently own (which I agreed to only because they gave me an insanely good trade in value for my LS Tahoe). -
sebring95 Posts: 3,233at 80mph can have some serious drag, even the aero boxes.
I've formerly raced cars (from factory porshe 914's to SCCA cars) and personally you won't catch any of my SUV's/Trucks just clogging along at those speeds for any great distance. Run of the mill cars don't give me much confidence at those speeds either. When it comes to stability/control you don't really want to learn the hard way what the limits of your vehicle are. -
gmfan007 Posts: 77Well, we just bought a '03 Yukon SLT last month with a MSRP of $54k. Paid $38k ... supposedly $500 over invoice ... yeah, whose invoice? A relative who retired from GM told me a long time ago, that there are at least three prices on a vehicle. There is MSRP (which no one pays unless you just fell off the turnip truck); Invoice (which is what the dealer will usually and is often eager to show you); the bottom line cost to the dealer (which the buyer never sees or can access). I think buying a car is a crap shoot at best. Too bad it can't be like buying a shirt. I think it is the element of deception and sale commissions which make it stressful and a turn off to most folks. Too many variables open to negotiation.
richphillips Posts: 36Regarding Ian Shaw's post on fuel mileage, my rocket box costs me about 2 mpg, so I took it off, and install it when needed. Also, cold weather lowers my mileage on the 02 hoe, as well as my previous 92 burb. I'd say the drop was 10-20% from cold weather, they just seem to like hot weather more. Of course, if you're living in San Diego, that flies out the window, but I've noticed it trending downward, and Colo hasn't even been that cold yet. Oxy fuels supposedly cost a little too, if you have winter blended fuel with MTBE or Ethanol.
mfullmer Posts: 819I'll assume that was a typo and the MSRP was not actually $54k. Even a fully optioned Denali is only $53k.
I just picked up (last week) a Tahoe LT with every option, including AutoRide and Stabilitrak. MSRP: $45,030.00. Dealer Invoice (inlcuding Advertising (which interestingly enough Edmunds doesn't include) and the actual prices of options, etc that were a bit off from Edmunds & KBB have posted.): $40,307.00. Agreed on Price: $40,507.00.
There were several factors that went into my $300 over invoice price:
1. The vehicle was made in December so the dealer still had 2 months of Holdback left.
2. Since the vehicle has every option and is RedFire Metallic it is a bit harder to sell.
3. I worked from the internet and am a long time GM Lessee. I was literally in the Dealership for 35 minutes. -
gmfan007 Posts: 77I beg your pardon. Actually, I just wanted to see if you were paying attention Those numbers were transposed. That should have been $45k with a "Dealer Markup" of $7k for a total sticker price of $52k.
I have never understood why they list "advertising fees". What other product(s) do you buy where they tack on an ad fee? Maybe they should list their monthly utility bills as well. I am sure all that is figured into their profit margin anyway. -
mfullmer Posts: 819Boy your dealer must be a little crazy in the head!
About advertising fees, the dealer doesn't list them on the invoice, they are part of the actual invoice from the manufacturer to the dealer. This is a fee that the Manufacturer charges, per vehicle, for Nation/Region-wide advertising. And it is a legitimate "invoice expense" and should be part of it. Now, as far as the DEALER trying to charge for advertising. This is something that should definitely be negotiated. Many dealers try to tack on their own advertising fees, although it is on the deal, not the invoice.
Thats why Edmunds and all of the other sites SHOULD list the Manufacturer advertising in their invoice prices. It is one of the things that dealers, legitimately, gripe about when it comes to the internet educated shopper. We go in there with out print out from xxx.com and say "Ok, here's your invoice price, I'll pay $300 over this". All it takes is one look at the actual invoice to see that, not only are these numbers incomplete, but many times they are also flat-out wrong. It's equally embarrassing for the consumer and probably leads to a lot of bad deals as then they get really confused. -

As for the fog light bulbs i went with the 893s. They are brighter. The next size up from these will melt the housing and many have found this out. So far i have had 0 problems and have had them since sept in my 00 Silverado -
gmfan007 Posts: 77I wondered why the dealer markup was so high too. No one in his right mind would pay that. It is as if they want to discourage window shoppers.
Thank you for the insight on advertising fees. Again, I don't know of any other product which list ad fees or any other production costs separately. Seems odd to me and just adds to the confusion or complexity of the deal.
In hindsight, I guess I got a fair deal. I just can't seem to shake that shafted feeling. -

jacondra Posts: 2Anyone had any problems with front wheel bearings on 2WD Yukon XL's? I've got a 2001 Yukon XL with 50K miles and the right front wheel bearing disintegrated with no warning. Local dealers cannot get a replacement bearing assembly nor can after-market parts stores get the bearing. I have called the GMC Customer Assistance line and was told that there are no bearing assemblies available, but they are in production. However, they cannot give an estimate of when I could get a bearing. Who ever heard of company building a truck, but not having parts available 2 + years after the manufactured date?

From Propane to Butane

My parents have sailed across the Atlantic to France where they ran out of propane fuel for their Shipmate stove, forcing them to covert to butane. However, I have searched in vain for the vendor, which was once located in Soderton, PA, as a division of the Richmond Ring Co. Can you help locate them or suggest another resource that can help with the retrofit?
John Kretschmer responds:
I seem to remember that when we lived in Spain we had the same issue. The problem is not the gas; a propane stove will run fine on butane and vice versa. The problem is usually just the fitting on the propane hose. They should check into changing the fittings. In fact, there is usually an adapter. You might have better luck looking for that. I also have a Shipmate stove and it is virtually impossible to find parts. You might contact Sailorman in Ft. Lauderdale. Their number is (954) 522-6716. If I recall, the major difference between propane and butane is the scent.

CINCINNATIElectrical disturbances that spread through an injured brain like tsunamis have a direct link to poor recovery and can last far longer than previously realized, researchers at the University of Cincinnati Neuroscience Institute (UCNI) have found.
The disturbances, known as cortical spreading depolarizations, are short-circuits (electrical failures) that occur in a localized, or specific, area of injury and result in dampened brain waves. Because of their localization, the depolarizations are invisible in routine electroencephalography (EEG) exams. But they represent an extreme change in voltageup to 10 times greater than any brain pattern that is normally present.
"Over the last several years we've learned how to measure and record spreading depolarization in the human brain, and we have known that these depolarizations occur in many patients who have suffered neurotrauma," says Jed Hartings, PhD, research assistant professor in UC's department of neurosurgery and director of clinical monitoring for the Mayfield Clinic. "But we didn't know what they meant or whether they were relevant. For the first time we now know that they relate to worse outcomes for patients who have suffered trauma to the brain."
That finding, Hartings adds, could eventually lead to new therapies. "If we can find a way to stabilize the brain's electrical activity and block spreading depolarizations, perhaps we can improve patients' outcomes."
An Advance Access, online version of the research, published April 7 by the neurology journal Brain (http://brain.oxfordjournals.org/) appears online in its complete, paginated form today.
The observational, multi-site study of 53 patients represents the initial phase of a four-year, $1.96 million grant awarded by the Department of Defense (DOD). The topic of spreading depolarizations is of keen interest to the U.S. military because head in

Caring for Children and Adolescents With Diabetes
The IDF, which is an umbrella organization of over 200 member associations in more than 160 countries, leads the celebration of the World Diabetes Day, which falls on 14th November. This year the campaign is focusing its efforts on raising awareness of diabetes in children and adolescents.
Diabetes is one of the most common chronic diseases to affect children. Every day more than 200 children are diagnosed with type 1 diabetes, requiring them to take multiple daily insulin shots and to monitor the glucose level in their blood. It is increasing at a rate of 3% each year among children and rising even faster in pre-school children at a rate of 5% per year. According to IDF estimates there are over 500,000 children, under the age of 15, currently living with diabetes.
Diabetes often requires life-long monitoring, care and treatment. It will, therefore, help to know if a hospital-based approach is better than home-based care or if a mix of these two approaches is essential to meet the needs of those with diabetes.
According to Dr Sonia Kakar, a New Delhi based doctor, "hospital-based approach should be for the management of acute and/or chronic complications arising out of diabetes. But as 99% of diabetes care is self-care, empowering people with right information can make home-based care approach more feasible and economical."
"Adolescents often have the motor and cognitive skills to perform all diabetes-related tasks. Their insulin doses are determined based on blood glucose levels and food intake. Thus, they must be supervised in their diabetes tasks and allowed gradual independence with the understanding that the independence will be continued only if they adhere to the diabetes regimen and succeed in maintaining reasonable metabolic control." she adds.
"During mid-adolescence, the family and healthcare team should impress upon the teenagers the importance of checking blood glucose levels prior to driving a car to avoid hypoglycemia while driving", says Dr Kakar.
Managing diabetes in children and adolescents becomes more effective when the entire family gets involved. Families should be encouraged to share their concerns with physicians, diabetes educators, dieticians, and other healthcare providers to get help in the day-to-day management of diabetes. Extended family members, teachers, school nurses, counsellors, coaches, day-care providers, and other resources in the community can provide information, support, and guidance regarding skills to cope with the disease. They may also act as resource persons for health education, financial services, social services, mental health counselling, transportation, and home visits.
"Diabetes is stressful for both - the child as well as his/ her family. Parents should be alert for signs of depression, eating disorders or an unexplained loss of weight and seek appropriate medical help. While all parents should talk to their children about avoiding tobacco, alcohol, and other drugs, this is particularly important for parents of children with diabetes. Smoking and diabetes both increase the risk of cardiovascular diseases and those people with diabetes, who are smokers, are at an increased risk of heart/ circulatory problems than those diabetics who are non-smokers. Hence parents/ family members of children/ adolescents living with diabetes should refrain from tobacco use in order to avoid sending wrong signals to their wards" recommends Dr Anoop Misra, Director and Head, Department of Diabetes and Metabolic Diseases, Fortis Hospitals at New Delhi and Noida.
Depending on their age and level of maturity, children living with diabetes should be encouraged to take care of themselves. Most school-age children can recognize symptoms of hypoglycemia; if they are over 12 years old they may be able to take insulin injections of correct dosage by themselves. They can also be involved in planning their diet chart.
Treatment of diabetes in adolescents is complex and should only be handled by experienced physicians. Also, such patients should be looked after by a team consisting of a diabetologist, nutritionist, diabetes educator, and psychologist.
Educating people with diabetes about diet, exercise and drugs is the most important part of the initial management of the disease and should be accomplished in several sessions. Insulin management should be discussed and demonstrated to children and parents, so that they can take insulin injections themselves. Parents, along with their children, should be made aware of healthy eating habits, physical exercise, and dosage management of drugs/ insulin.
At a meeting in London, on October 25,IDF is bringing together key opinion leaders to push for action to secure care for the thousands of children with diabetes in developing countries without access to care. The meeting, 'Access to Essential Diabetes Medicines for Children in the Developing World' will focus on ways to help keep more children with diabetes alive and healthy. Ministries of Health from various developing countries, leaders from the pharmaceutical industry, philanthropic foundations, leading supply-chain management firms, diabetes associations, as well as professional societies in paediatrics and diabetes education have been invited to the meeting.
Close to 75,000 children in low-income and lower-middle income countries are living with diabetes in desperate circumstances. These children need life-saving insulin to survive. Even more children are in need of the monitoring equipment, test strips and education required to manage their diabetes in order to avoid the life-threatening complications associated with diabetes.
"We are bringing together the people and the organizations that can provide not only the interim humanitarian response to save lives but can lay the groundwork for sustainable solutions that will benefit all children with diabetes," said Dr Martin Silink, President of the International Diabetes Federation (IDF).

Fresh off her achievement of becoming the valedictorian of her graduating class at Dudley's Beauty College, Hope D. Hannibal wanted to test her mettle. She signed up for a duo of competitions, snipping and cropping her way to a second- and third-place finish in the Bronner Bros. Student Rising Star and Student Mannequin competitions. Springboarding off those victories, and undergirded by her bachelor's in business management, the aesthetics go-getter started her own salon.
In 2009, she flung open the doors to Bella Cheveux Salon and Spa, where she and her staff treat clients to an array of prettifying services. As a national educator for Dudley's haircare products, Hope ensures that her team is up on the latest beauty innovations. She harnesses continuing education and training to outfit her patrons with the latest trends, sprucing up coifs with cuts, highlights, and relaxers or accenting nails with colors more dynamic than a rainbow seen through a prism.
