The Milford Road Course is 2.9 miles of climbing, plunging, twisting pavement designed to make cars unhappy. If a lap here is fun, that's an accidental byproduct of the main goal, which is to exorcise chassis demons before production vehicles are sent out into the world. I don't think it's a coincidence that GM's cars have become ever-better road-course weapons since they built this place. "Here, you're pulling 0.9 g on the straightaway," says Corvette chief engineer Tadge Juechter. You know it's a tough track when the straightaway is a corner.
Weight is the enemy of lap times, and that's the one area where the C6 trumps the C7. Despite the C7's aluminum frame, carbon-fiber hood and roof, magnesium-framed seats, and center-tunnel insulation made from Aerogel -- one of the world's lightest solid materials -- the C7 is heavier than its predecessor. GM lists the base Stingray at 3298 pounds, 90 pounds more than last year's model.
In the most basic sense, the new car offers a lot more features than the old one, and additional capabilities generally presage additional weight. For instance, adding cylinder deactivation required a move to a steel torque tube instead of aluminum, because V-4 mode generates low-frequency resonances that only a steel torque tube can smother. "That added eight kilograms [17.6 pounds]," says Juechter. "From a performance perspective, that is trivial. So for the huge gain in fuel economy, you've got to do it." Juechter says that on the street in Eco mode, his best twenty-five-mile drive averaged 37.2 mpg.
That new interior adds weight, too, for the simple reason that padding and nice materials are going to weigh more than naked plastic. I talked with interior design manager Ryan Vaughan, who told me that weight was the single biggest concern. "In a normal program, you fight for every dollar," he said. "Here, everybody knew what we needed to do and there was no resistance to spending what it took. There was more discomfort when there was something that added weight, because they were very sensitive to that."
Whatever it weighs, the new interior is killer. The eight-inch high-res display in front of the driver is particularly entertaining, as it can morph into several different presentations (including my favorite, a Motec-style rpm bar graph). It's flanked by analog gauges, which help hedge the inevitable digital-display datedness that will set in when 2014's high-res looks like an Atari 2600 compared with the new hyper-realistic holoscreens in the 2024 models.
Speaking of the C7's future as a used car, buried in that display is a gauge that will prove useful for comparing secondhand Vettes: in addition to mileage, the C7 logs total engine revolutions. So you should be able to get an idea of whether a given car spent its life loping down the highway in seventh gear or clocking hot laps at the nearest track.
At Milford, GM coned off two areas that might prove deleterious to the health of the C7 and its drivers. A chicane breaks up a particularly brutal high-speed section, and the steeply banked carousel-style corner will not be scraping off any chin spoilers this afternoon. I strap on a helmet and climb behind the wheel of a Stingray equipped with the $2800 Z51 performance package. There isn't much choice in the matter, as every car here has the Z51 Performance Package. Which makes sense, because you'd be silly to buy a Corvette without it.
Opting for Z51 gives you the all-important eLSD, as well as dry-sump lubrication, differential and transmission coolers, and aero upgrades. Performance-wise, you'll also want the magnetic ride control with performance traction management ($1795) and the dual-mode exhaust ($1195). If Chevy is looking for a slogan for that optional exhaust, I'd like to suggest, "It only adds five horsepower, but it sure does sound like more!"
The cars queued up at the track are all manuals, too. The automatic puts more weight on the rear tires, making it the nominal 0-to-60-mph champ, but out here the stick is what you want. Shift paddles flank the steering wheel with either transmission, but with the manual they control the transmission's electronic rev-matching function, with the prominent center-display gear indicator changing from white to yellow to indicate the system's activation. With that display showing a yellow "1", I go booming away from the pits and out onto the track.
Up to 4700 rpm, the LT1 makes almost as much torque as the old Z06's LS7. Running in track mode, there are corners where I could probably downshift to second, but third still pulls hard enough to invoke some electronic torque management if I unwind the wheel too fast. The C7 isn't as explosive as a C6 Z06, but the lazy low-rpm behavior of the LS3 is definitely banished.
I'll admit that I never turn off the entire electronic safety net on this particular gray-hair-promoting course, but track mode allows enough chassis leeway to reveal that this car is much, much friendlier than the C6. Most gratifying is that this Vette is predictable. Whatever you're trying to do, whether it's trail-braking into a hairpin or powering out of a 100-mph sweeper, somebody has already thought about that situation and tuned the differential lockup, throttle response, suspension stiffness, and about a million other parameters to make the car respond consistently. There's even a system that predicts the tire temperatures and adjusts the chassis controls to raise the thresholds of intervention as the tires warm up. You can turn off traction management and disable rev matching, but there are nonetheless always a lot of computers at work figuring out how to keep you hurtling toward the next apex.
Yet, you're really not aware of any of that when you're driving. Like many a Vette before it, the C7 coughs and bellows and invites you to pop off its targa top and lay down an endless pushrod V-8 burnout like the lout it's always been. Never mind that variable valve timing means that any rough-camshaft idle shake is premeditated. Never mind that the targa top is exotic-car-worthy carbon fiber. And never mind that the parallel stripes of rubber you'll paint on the pavement might be enabled by a hydraulic clutch pack running its own dedicated ECU programmed with in-house algorithms.
The trick with modern performance cars is adding these new layers of digital speed enhancements without ending up with a car that feels like a driving simulator. And that's the real achievement with the Corvette Stingray. In the course of optimizing this torrent of ones and zeros, Chevrolet still remembered to make the C7 loud, brash, low, wide, and menacing. It's smarter and sharper -- and sometimes it's a four-cylinder -- but it's still a Corvette.
Figuring it Out
A while back, a delivery-truck driver loading a Ferrari FF told me to push down on its front end with the ignition off. The car bounced freely. He said that Ferraris loaded tightly on trucks have been getting dented hoods because they bounce up and down so much. I hypothesized that the magnetorheological suspension must go AWOL with the ignition off, so without power they basically lose their dampers.At Milford, I asked Tadge Juechter about this, and he said that's exactly what's happening. Actually he said something like, "Oh, I guess they haven't figured that out." He said GM wrestled with the same problem and used to solve it by shipping Corvettes with pucks inserted into the suspension to prevent them from moving much during shipping. Problem was, dealers would sometimes forget to remove the pucks. "One guy complained to me that his Corvette had an awful ride even though it had this high-tech suspension," he said. "So I reached under it and sure enough, the pucks were still there. I pulled them out and it was like I'd magically fixed his car." So GM decided that the puck system wasn't working. Standing there next to a parked C7, I pressed down on the fender and the car barely moved. What was the solution? "We figured it out," he said.

First off, thank you gardenweb community for all the information and knowledge posted on this forum. Without this site we would have been lost. This has been so far a long process 9 months or so in the works. Extension/full gut. We cannot wait until it is complete in 2-3 weeks. Cabinets are custom made, inset modified shaker style Counters will be white macaubas quartzite Progress pictures (I don't have any good shots of the kitchen before any demo, it is on my dslr and I have not had a chance to go through them). Kitchen in the background. View from the living/family room. Living/dining/kitchen will all be opened up to one room. |

Looking good! Just curious- what are the dimensions of your kitchen? Look forward to more photos! |
Thanks, the kitchen is only 12' wide (15' long) so the isles are a little tight. Its fine for us but I still do wish it was a foot wider. |
Is it my monitor or are the insides of your uppers painted sage like the island??? I LOVE IT!!! |
Mine is 12'x17.5, with doorways similar to yours so I was pleased to see your layout (what I would like to do in mine). I too, wish for another foot but hopefully you will forget about that wish once the kitchen is finished and in use! |
And... (sorry!) your built-ins bought you more space as well, right? I never thought of doing that. How deep are they? Was it a challenging project or straightforward? Thanks! |
dcward89, yes it is painted the same as the island color. The shelving inside will be painted the same as well. We were a little apprehensive about the color but it worked out really well. redjulie, anything will be better than what I had before. We can't have everything I guess. |
redjulie, The built in was necessary for space as we do not have a separate pantry area. That wall is a load bearing wall, the contractor needed to place a header in order to do that 7 foot wide opening. The framing took the contractor a couple of days (3 guys). We ate into our daughters bedroom behind the wall for it. The depth of the built-in is 12". |
I love the colors and your kitchen. Cant wait to see it finished. |
Thanks for sharing that info. |

LOVE LOVE LOVE the green!!! |
Thanks rockybird and beautybutdebtfree. We kind of went with a green theme for the house. The walls are grey with a hint of green. Only shows the green in the right light. The stained concrete on the new part is a deeper green with amber and walnut. |

Beautiful, I just can't wait to see the final project! |
Looks lovely! I think it was really wise to do the built-ins! I think you might always have wished that you'd done it -- and you were so right! What exactly is a "modified Shaker?" They look beautiful. |

Your space is looking fabulous! I particularly love the island and back of cabinets color. Your cabinets look really fantastic and the space seems so open now. I can't wait to see the finished product. |
Thanks threegraces. Us too, we have the quartzite going in today. CEFreeman, the cabinest just have a 1/4 round trim added. I am not sure what to call it, This was done to match our existing doors in the house (and old built-in). If you look at the island picture you can see the little bit or trim on the drawers. Our house had a built-in separating the dining room and kitchen. That built in has been the inspiration behind a lot of the house. It had glass uppers with that prairie style grid pattern. We did all the windows in the house to have the same grid pattern. It is also what we are doing on the glass uppers in the kitchen. Pricklypearcactus, we could not believe how different it looked ourselves when the drywall was in. |

It's just amazing the workmanship put into this era's homes. Do you happen to know if yours is a Sear's Kit Home? C. |
After looking it up I am pretty sure it is not a Sear's home. We do know that the stucco on the house as not always been there. I am unsure when it was done though. Here is a picture of the house when the new coat of stucco was being floated on the house. |

Beautiful kitchen, I just love the color. Looks sweet and original. |
I am loving this kitchen. I especially like how you painted the inside of the cabinets a contrasting color. I cannot wait to see the finished kitchen. |
This is definitely on its way to being a very beautiful, soothing space--love the cabinetry and colors! And that built-in--what a great use of space. |
Oh, what a gorgeous home! I LOVE the lines of it and those A&C windows are a wonderful touch! Sooooooo pretty. |
@robotropolis, belleva, bakerjen Thanks, our countertops went on yesterday. We were both a little apprehensive after they went on. We think the colors looked better before the countertops went on. @CEFreeman, we are going for a classic mixed with some modern elements. We are doing a flush mounted stainless apron sink instead of a porcelain apron. Also will have stainless behind the range but 2x8 subway on the rest of the back splash. |
Oh, how lovely. I am feeling a twinge of house envy, which is very unusual for me. :) Can't wait for final product! |
- Posted by 1929Spanish (My Page) on Fri, Mar 7, 14 at 17:59
Very nice. Love the green! |
"...we think the colors looked better before they went on..." Countertop shock? The colors, the counters, the cabinets are all perfect! |
I adore the color of your walls. I am so glad that you preserved some elements of the original layout in the windows and upper cabinets. Those details count so much in the attractiveness of those homes. The counter does seem to emphasize the "mintyness" of your green, but it is fine. You will get to like it soon I bet. |
That's so pretty with the green inside the cabs. I think the counters look wonderful in there! Very nice! |

It looks like the kitchen is coming together awesome, but I am in love with the exterior! What a pretty house. |
@CEFreeman, funny I get that often on this site. @1929spanish and deedles, all the positive comments on the green is definitely reassuring. @lesmobo, yes I think I read about that on here before. haha @raee, thanks we tried. We also are doing octagonal glass knobs on all our door knobs in the house. Octagonal glass knobs on all our cabinets as well. @smallhouse, thanks that front porch is new as well. It was dry rotted though so we had to redo it. We decided to tile it with a Brazilian slate. |
I love it! The green is so calming! What a great idea for the interiors! Keep those pictures coming! Those uppers are amazing! |
Thanks, we were extremely happy with the upper doors. The contractor will be doing the backsplash on Monday. The cabinet maker well be coming by on Wednesday to do the final touch ups. |

Sorry I accidentally deleted some photos. They should be up now. |
Shaping up to be a fantastic kitchen. Can't wait to see finished product. I love the painted interiors. Great idea! |
Looking through this thread again brought to mind the first house that I can remember living in. It was a "dutch colonial" build not sure when, but very likely before 1925 since an adjacent, later neighborhood was built in 1929. My family lived there in the late 50's. Anyway, I remember that it had a lot of built ins -- bookshelves, cupboards, china cabinet, blanket chests; the shelves were painted like yours -- white with an interior color |

I love your new kitchen! I have spent countless hours on this site anonymously celebrating everyone's successes and agonizing over the disappointments. So glad that you have a great success! My husband and I are going to pick out a slab of sea pearl today for our remodel. The bones of our kitchen are fine so we are just repainting cabinets, replacing the hideous formica, and finally installing the BS range that has been sitting in the garage since November! Anyway, I love your knobs and would like to know where you got them or the name of the manufacturer. I can almost hear the gasps---what? glass knobs with sea pearl?/?--- but I am a little eccentric (everyone family needs an eccentric and I embrace that role!!!) I think I might give them a try! I just noticed your faucet-what is it? |
Thanks emily325, bicyclegirl, and dillyny. schicksal the controls are on the inside top of the drawers. There is also a remote to pause the cycle. Loyalandtrue, the knobs believe it or not are from ebay. They come straight from china. I ordered one, liked the quality so I ordered a ton more. here is a link. http://www.ebay.com/itm/16pcs-Octagonal-Knob-Clear-Cabinet-Drawer-Crystal-Glass-Handle-30mm-New-/251155937143?pt=LH_DefaultDomain_0&hash=item3a7a0f7777 The faucets are from costco. Sometimes they sales on the faucet and the price drops 50 dollars. So far we really like it and it seems like a very good value.. http://www.costco.com/Hansgrohe-Metro%E2%84%A2-HighArc-Kitchen-Faucet-with-2-function-Pull-out-Sprayhead.product.11675569.html |

Thank you so much for the information. I will be ordering the knobs. We don't have Costco where I Iive, but I will look on their website for the faucet. Peace and joy to you and yours in your beautiful home! |
This is shaping up very nicely; it's going to be a knockout when you're all done! Can't wait to see more pics... |
How about an update and pics of how your gorgeous kitchen is coming along?....please?! |

Great solution! We also had a tight trash pullout situation and ended up with an out of the box solution but yours looks much nicer. Happy to see updates on this beautiful and personal kitchen. |
Very lovely kitchen. I love the color, wish I was brave. |
- Posted by greenhaven (My Page) on Tue, Jul 15, 14 at 15:43
Can't wait for the reveal! And love your pull-out solution. That is one of my own mid-term projects. |
I love the trash pullout too. We'll be customizing our pullout too. I bought bins from two different brands to get the best dimensions to maximize our space. |
Thanks Mags438. @robotropolis, greenhaven, feisty68 |

Week one in the Cape
Posted in England U19s
Shiv Thakor (Leicestershire), Olly Stone (Northamptonshire) and Gavin Griffiths (Lancashire) write the first entry of the England U19 team blog from their winter tour to South Africa...
After setting off the previous night we finally arrived in Stellenbosch at 9am having swapped sub-zero temperatures for 30-degree heat.
We were up nice and early for training at the world-famous cricket ground, Sahara Park Newlands, the venue of our first Test match nine days on.
Following three days of intense training and a well-deserved rest day it was now time for our first match of the tour, a warm up game against a Western Cape Invitational XI.
After winning the toss and deciding to bat first we lost both openers early but the ship was steadied by Harry Finch (52 retired) and Shiv Thakor (30); we then decided to declare on 132 for seven after 60 overs.
This then gave the bowlers 35 overs that evening which turned out to be enough to get all 10 opposition wickets for just 117, with two wickets each for Josh Shaw and Shiv Thakor and three for off-spinner Miles Hammond.
With runs from opener Dom Sibley (54 retired) and a quickfire 33 from as many balls from Ryan Gibson, and including a lead of 15 into the second innings, we set our opposition a score of 198 to win.
Unfortunately the opposition got to the target in 49 overs for the loss of three wickets.
The other unfortunate incident was Shiv, the appointed tour captain, injuring his finger taking a catch in the slips.
After a day of rest we had another training session at Newlands which was attended by England opening batsman Nick Compton, who shared his experience and knowledge with the team throughout the training session.
The lads were now ready for the first Test which was less than 24 hours away.

AP News
On the Call: United Continental CEO Jeff Smisek
Worries about flaming batteries have grounded the world's Boeing 787s, including six owned by United Continental Holdings Inc.
Airlines that bought the new plane, including United, promoted its passenger-friendly comfort and fuel efficiency. But the plane's headlines lately have been negative, and some are starting to wonder how eager passengers will be to fly on the plane once it's cleared again for takeoff.
United CEO Jeff Smisek has committed billions of dollars to buying the 787, so one might expect him to be enthusiastic. On Thursday he said United has not gotten any guidance about how long the plane will be grounded.
Smisek said that once U.S. and Japanese regulators find the cause and Boeing Co. fixes it, "We're done. Because look, the aircraft is a terrific aircraft. And customers love the airplane. And I have no doubt that customers will flock back to that airplane as soon as we get it back up again.
"But this is a problem that Boeing and the regulatory authorities need to deal with, they should deal with it. We support them. We'll give them every bit of assistance that we possibly can, because we, too, want to get the airplane up and flying safely, and I'm confident that will occur ... It's a terrific airplane. Ask anybody who's flown that airplane. It's spectacular. And once this particular issue is solved, it's solved, and it's just a matter of whatever time it takes to solve it."

Best Dressed Celebrities and Models Week of April 9, 2012
This Week's Best Dressed
>> Spring party season is in full swing, bringing New York's fash pack out in droves. On Thursday, Ferragamo feted the reopening of its gorgeous 5th Avenue flagship by inviting Solange Knowles — divine in head-to-toe Ferragamo, of course— to spin records for a well-heeled crowd that included Sarah Reynolds, Lauren Remington Platt, and Genevieve Jones.
Across the street, Cartier celebrated the opening of its "Cartier & Aldo Cipullo, New York City in the '70s" exhibit with a glam soiree that saw the likes of Arizona Muse, Lily Collins, and Charlotte Casiraghi. Later that evening, the party continued downtown, where Leigh Lezark (left) kept the crowd — which included Chanel Iman and Karlie Kloss, both in Cushnie et Ochs — dancing all night long.

ORO VALLEY - A 26-year-old veteran returned to his Tucson-area high school to inspire students and the community on this Veterans Day.
At Pusch Ridge Christian Academy Zach Abrams was given a standing ovation after he recounted his experience overseas.
Abrams found himself at age 24 in Afghanistan leading other soldiers in combat.
"It was an honor to be able to come back and share experiences," said Abrams.
Abrams said he followed in his older brother's footsteps.
"Having my brother enlist made it a real option for me," said Abrams.
"It's such an honor to be the inspiration of what he's become. We're so proud of him," said his brother Eric.
His proud family sat in the front row while others from the school and community looked on.
"It's veterans day a special day," said Jayme Berg.
Berg is a World War II veteran.
He went to the school to celebrate the day.
"It reminds me of many years ago, and other veterans and of course the newer veterans. We're all one group," said Berg.
Berg is 86 years old, but he said he remembers the war clearly.
"I spent my first part on an island in the south pacific," said Berg.
He said every Veterans Day brings back memories.
"You think of it quite often. Quite often," said Berg.
He said he's proud to see a young veteran speak.
"It gives me hope that there's some that still think the same way," said Berg.

Seems very energy intensive to fabricate this material.
There are instances of casein allergy to be aware of.
Given some of the poignant comments here, maybe the next step would be to see if the necessary proteins can be synthesized in a way that cuts animals out of the loop entirely. Maybe bacteria could be genetically engineered to produce the requisite proteins just as they are for other applications.
I'm quite sure doing this would allow the supply to increase, too, as you could have huge vats of bacteria just churning this stuff out around the clock. Producing the proteins in this way would, too, I imagine, allow the process to be more controlled, bringing the efficiency of producing plastic in this way up.
Unfortunately, I'm not a biochemical engineer, so I may just be blowing smoke. Seems like it could be a good idea, though.
If this material comes to be real and massive used,the environmental problems coused by the plastic waste can be solved effectively and efficiently.But first of all,it should be manufactured at a low cost,othervise people would not like to use it that may increase their daily expenditure.I sincerely hope that plastic subsititution can be put into a large usage.
Just being picky but "in an oven at 80°C ABOVE zero" seems a bit tautological.
I was already familiar with "curds and whey", but if the drawing is correct, I now know what a tuffet is. A poof.
Low-cost degradable plastic is already here. See www.d2w.net
The challenge that milk based proteins (be they cow based or kangaroo) is that the scale of production will create other unforeseen consequences. The impact on the availability of milk for human's to drink be it via price increases or shortages will be significant unless other efficiencies are found. The simple economics will also limit the applications where this type of polymer can be used. The impact on green house gas emissions will be significant in that whatever animal is contributing the protein will create some sort of carbon based emissions. The biodegradation of the "waste" plastic will also contribute to the GHG issues.
The bottom line, there is still no free lunch. Basic production economics will continue to drive behaviors without the over riding influence of potential government policy positions. Recent attempts to use government policy to influence consumer behaviors have not gone well - see the recent financial crisis due to overleveraged homeowners. The dairy farmers may truly want this new development to be driven by policy, but please think of the manure issue it will create.
I think it is a great idea to use a protein that can be digested as the base for a plastic-like material.
If milk protein works, would a soy based protein, or perhaps a bean based/not soy... nut proteins??? Maybe coconut... they have to be the biggest ones on the planet, and new discoveries about the 'oil' being healthier than previously imagined... well, the concept has great merit.
As to the global impact of cows... good grief. Factory farming and ranching is more of a culprit than just a poor cow. Cram too many of any species in tight quarters, and you trash the environment. Pigs, chickens... fish... humans.
Everyone knows that Kangaroos have a much healthier effect on the planet pound for pound than cows (due to different gut bacteria), but what is their milk like? On a more relevant note, the sooner we move to biodegradable plastic the better, the stuff is hideous, particularly in the oceans.
What's ridiculous is to assert that cows don't contribute to global warming- cows do, as well as humans and everything else in kingdom animalia. The question is one of degree-- how *much* do they contribute relative to other sources of GHG emissions. I think, when you look at methane emissions from high-density feed lots, primarily of the sorts used for meat production (less so dairy) their contribution is in fact significant, partly because methane is such a potent greenhouse gas.
The question you raised should be carefully interrogated using scientific methods, and not scoffed at as if you already knew the answer [which you do not.]
For the dairy sector really to score on this environmental opportunity we need also to tackle the ridiculous notion that cows are contributing to global warming.... For ideas how to do this please google my contact details.

Jumpgate Evolution Dev Interview, Dogfighting Video
Re:Dogfighting? I think not... (66 comments)
I think you need to read up on NetDevil a little more before passing judgement. This is a small group of developers who built the original Jumpgate in their free time out of their own pocket because they thought it was cool.
To respond to the GP and above... if you missed it from the comments in the article (and from original Jumpgate) the entire game environment is based on Newtonian physics. If you are piloting a large cargo ship with a full cargo load you have to deal with inertia issues, i.e. doing a full reverse burn at full thrust for a few seconds before you even think about docking at a station.

Getting to know TripIt Pro – Point Tracker Written on July 21, 2009 at 2:34 pm, by TripIt Share: Facebook Twitter Pinterest Linkedin Google+ Email We'll be blogging this month to tell frequent travelers about each of the core features in TripIt Pro. This week's feature is Point Tracker. Travel rewards programs like frequent flyer miles and hotel points are available everywhere these days, which is great for road warriors who deserve to earn perks for their repeat business. What isn't so great is the challenge of keeping track of account numbers, point balances, expiration dates and other important information for lots of different accounts. At best, juggling all this information is inconvenient, and at worst, travelers can lose out on the benefits they've earned because it's impossible to keep track of everything. TripIt Pro Point Tracker provides an easy solution to these problems. Here is a summary of what you get with TripIt Pro Point Tracker… All of your accounts in one place – Keep track of your frequent flyer, hotel and rental car programs and more, all in the one place. Balance and activity summary – Get a convenient one-page summary of points available, points used, and recent activity for your accounts. Plus, see how close you are to elite status in your various programs. Easy to update– If you join a new program or want to stop tracking a program you no longer use, it's easy to keep your Point Tracker page up to date by adding and removing accounts. Let TripIt Pro help you keep track of your travel accounts, so you get all the rewards you deserve. It's easy to get started – just go to http://www.tripit.com/pro. 19 Total Views 3 Views Today
KimKelly 5pts Hello, I'm wondering if there is a way to force a Point Tracker update? If I don't click on the Point Tracker tab for an extended period of time, it seems to update automatically once I do (perhaps once every 24 hours? I haven't experimented). However, I need an up-to-date count of my points and I am hoping there is a way to initiate an update. Refreshing the page does not help, nor does logging out and logging back in.Thanks for any help!
Chris Edmonds 5pts Now that Southwest has moved to a more traditional Points based Frequesnt Flyer scheme, how about TripIt adding them to TripIt Points?
Liz 5pts I need help. I just started a new job as EA to an executive. I will manage his TripIt account under his name. I'm trying to add accounts and continue to get exclamation marks after waiting for a long period on "we are updating your account activity" I assume the account number asked is the Mileage / Program Number and the PIN number is a PW? I cannot update old accounts or add new accounts. I'm I correct to say, if the carrier is not a partner with TripIt, I need to manually add the account and information in? I'm confused, help please!!! Thank you!!!
Angie Ryan 5pts Hi Michael, Our apologies for any confusion caused by our email. As you noticed, our free iPhone app doesn't yet support point tracker, but we have plans to add it to TripIt for iPhone very soon. Thanks for your patience, and your feedback. -Angie
Michael R. Wolf 5pts Bait and switch? I just signed up for TripIt Pro based on an email I received yesterday. In the email, I see an iPhone, the words "Point Tracker", and the price. I signed up to fork over the price, but don't see any new Point Tracker information on my iPhone. Would it be too much to ask that an email directed at iPhone users would add extra features to an iPhone? I figured that the app would have some added features for the four items listed in the email, and was especially excited to be able to get my reward plans and reward plan member numbers consolidated onto my iPhone. No dice. This feels like a bait and switch. Of course, it's great to have the Point Tracker in a browser, but to list it on an ad targeted to iPhone users feels disingenuous. I currently carry a print out of an excel spreadsheet with my plan names and plan numbers. It sure would be nice to have that list available to me when I check into a hotel. Automating it would be great, but as a software developer, I realize that could be tough. I'd settle for having the number handy as I checked in for a flight or a hotel. That semi-automated "cheat sheet" is a great hel.
Philip 5pts I am also wondering when TripIt might be more international with its programs to be supported by Point Tracker. Until then, will wait and see.
Angie Ryan 5pts A list of the programs supported by Point Tracker is available here - http://www.tripit.com/pointtracker
Norm Wisler 5pts Will Point Tracker automatically be sure to see that I receive travel points when TripIt Pro receives my flight and hotel e-mail confirmations or must the person who arranges my travel use my account numbers when making the reservations?
Fernando H Rosa 5pts Good question. I too am looking for such a list of supported programs before making a decision.
B 5pts Where can I find out which programs are currently supported by Point Tracker? I am assuming Miles&More is? What about Air Berlin?
steve 5pts any idea when point tracker might include Air New Zealand Airpoints, Qantas Frequent Flyer, and VirginBlue Velocity Rewards, amongst others, for international travel?
Frank 5pts If my partner manages all my loyalty accounts for me (she get's all the emails and manages my passwords already), do i need to buy 2 tripit pro subscriptions or just one? (i get that i might want the pro subscription for myself, but i'm pretty sure i'm getting her one just for this feature)

On a side note, I've come up with my third million dollar idea. I bought a brush for the cat and she absolutely loves being brushed but I noticed that even when I put the brush down, she rubs against it and brushes herself with no effort on my part. Someone needs to make an extra large brush, one for cats and one for dogs, that looks like a giant, spiny ding-dong. The curvature will allow them to brush their necks and bellies and treat it as something of a toy, but I couldn't help but notice that I had a brush completely full of hair after leaving it on the couch for the cat to do with as she pleased.
I'd call it the cat-gasm or dog-gasm, based upon the fervor with which she brushed herself. They'd need different grades of brushes, based upon size and strength. The brushes would reduce shedding, time brushing and be something of a self-pleasuring device for animals, hence the name.
My other two million dollar ideas are a wallet with a firm plastic side which functions as a mouse. Mouse pads are a pain and carrying around a mouse for your laptop is unnecessary if you have a wallet that serves as a mouse. It's palm sized, could easily be outfitted with a sensor and USB so that you basically always have a mouse in your pocket, assuming you carry a wallet.
The last million dollar idea is less serious. It's a small, plastic piano player that could be either a key chain or simply a figurine. It's called "My Tiny Pianist". Sold in liquor stores or convenience stores, "My Tiny Pianist" would be an inexpensive impulse buy on the counter. My girlfriend left me because she said I was spending too much time playing with my tiny pianist. Have you seen my tiny pianist? I've got a tiny pianist in my pocket. Etc. The jokes practically write themselves, and honestly what guy doesn't wish that he had a tiny pianist?

I have 3 new Farberware pots that have spouts & strainer lids - that I love... BUT, I think their surfaces are so smooth that boiled water often doesn't break the surface so that when you put a spoon in - or food... and break the surface yourself, it kind of explodes. I use the term explodes loosely, because it doesn't quite explode... but it does seem to erupt forcefully upward... much like they say happens when one boils water in a microwave. Pretty dangerous!
Any advice? |
Follow-Up Postings:
I would think that any pot which caused the "eruption" you describe is a dangerous item waiting for an accident to happen. Even tho you love them, you should return them and get pots which boil water correctly. Obviously they were not designed properly, give 'em back! |
No need to return the pots. Essentially what is happening is that there's no place, no imperfection, in the pot on which bubbles can form. With no bubbles forming, the water's surface tension keeps the heat in, and the water superheats. When you put something in the water, you break the surface tension, and you get explosive boiling. Are the pots stainless steel or non-stick? If stainless, simply give them a scrubbing along the insides with something that will rough up the surface, Comet cleanser usually works. Another way, if you don't want to mess up the look of the pots, is to put a wooden spoon in the pot as you're boiling our water. The spoon gives a great place for bubbles to form. |

When it opened in 1979, Zuni Cafe must have been way ahead of its time because even as the decades mount, the restaurant continues to feel current. Maybe it's the interior that capitalizes on the quirky architecture and industrial materials found in the building, maybe it's the timeless food crafted by Judy Rodgers, or maybe it's the clientele that seems to rediscover it with every generation. This is the place for a whole wood-fired chicken (it takes an hour to prepare), oysters, Caesar salad and other dishes that never go out of style. The bar is as popular as the restaurant, and here's an insider's tip: Order the margarita.
Specialties: Oysters; Caesar salad; polenta with mascarpone; house-cured anchovies; house-ground hamburger (lunch and after 10 p.m.); wood oven-roasted whole chicken; espresso granita.
Tues-Sat 11:30 a.m.-midnight; Brunch Sun 11:00 a.m.-2:30 p.m., dinner Sun 5-11p.m.

Al, I just looked you plant up in the Hermann Jacobsen Succulent Lexicon, your pic fits the description and picture of Conophytum meyerae right down to the dots along the leaf margins. There IS a conophytum species... meyeri v. meyeri (old name) but this is totally different looking plant. I did a search and found these links for you... Cheers for now, CP |
- Posted by shrubs_n_bulbs z8/9 UK (My Page) on Wed, Nov 2, 05 at 9:06
Sounds good to me. C. meyerae is now considered to be a form of C. bilobum ssp bilobum and it certainly has that look, while C. meyeri is a different species in group Biloba. I don't have the exact descriptions for the different Conophytum species but it all seems to fit :) The horrible thing is that they can look similar to completely different plants such as Cheiridopsis. The differences are very apparent when you observe them for a period of time. |
Ah-Ha! meyerae vs meyeri My first problem was a spelling problem. I consider myself incredibly lucky to have the help I am getting from the garden web crew. Almost 100% of my mesembs were grown from seed about 1980 or so. So many places where errors in naming can creep in. Was the seed named correctly? When plants are re-potted, did I mix labels.? When re-starting those in sad shape in the rooting bin, did I mix labels? Visitors sometimes pull labels to check data and might not place them correctly. You folks know what you are talking about. I did a Google search for this plant and entered my spelling error. I came up with a plant that did not match at all. I am very grateful for your critique. Also for the chance to read your expert commentary. Many a thank you. Al |

ATTENTION: I have completed my move to Florida (Youngstown, Florida, to be exact) and it will still be a couple months until I get back into the full swing of things on findagrave. Because of this situation, any updates, corrections, transfers, etc. may not be completed in a timely manner. Please bear with me as my wife and I move in and become more familiar with our new surroundings.
As a result of this relocation, I will no longer be available for Pennsylvania photographs or research and it will take quite some time to become as familiar with Bay County, Florida and surrounding areas.
Born and raised in Apollo, Pa., which was the epitome of "Small Town USA," in the 1950's. Graduated from College, taught High School Biology for 6 years and then I grew up and joined the Navy. My goal was to Serve our country and see the world at the same time and then, after one 4 year hitch, I would resume a Teaching career. Things sometimes do not work out as planned...In 1997, after spending 22 years in the Service, I retired, back to my home, in Armstrong County, PA. Retirement has enabled me to work and concentrate on the main love of my life, which is my Family and Friends and, also enabled me the time to pursue my addiction to our family history and genealogy. There has also been ample time, left over, to engage in the secondary love of my life, which is fishing. Now, there had always been an interest in family history and genealogy and these fishing pursuits of boating, canoeing and tramping the streams, in search of the wily Trout and Bass has led me to many cemeteries, which are located in out of the way places. It is to the point...and, sometimes to the chagrin and frustration of my wife, where I cannot pass by a cemetery without "exploring a little bit." Thankfully I have married a wonderful and understanding wife, who, in spite of her seeming, sometimes frustration, just winks and grins whenever I tell her about the discovery of a "New" Cemetery...and then admonishes me to be sure not to miss anyone's stone. (As if I would, Eh?)
Many of the cemeteries, in this historic area of the country, are very old...some are grown over and a lot of markers are in advanced disrepair and are illegible. I have come to believe that we are losing our heritage and history, by allowing this to happen. After discovering Find-a-Grave, it has become easy to combine my hobbies with family history and the recording of the old cemeteries in my home area.
It is my goal to record as many of the small church or family cemeteries, as possible, in Armstrong County and adjoining counties, before I am too old to get out of the rocking chair. It is a guess there are still a few years, to go, before that occurs: I hope!
ATTENTION: I have completed my move to Florida (Youngstown, Florida, to be exact) and it will still be a couple months until I get back into the full swing of things on findagrave. Because of this situation, any updates, corrections, transfers, etc. may not be completed in a timely manner. Please bear with me as my wife and I move in and become more familiar with our new surroundings.
As a result of this relocation, I will no longer be available for Pennsylvania photographs or research and it will take quite some time to become as familiar with Bay County, Florida and surrounding areas.

Correction: Mary Elizabeth Nadu Koss
You do a lot of good work!
I want to make a correction, though, for my maternal grandmother Mary Elizabeth Nadu Koss. You created a memorial for her using her old headstone, in a cemetery in which she is not interred.
Mary Elizabeth Nadu Koss died in Cambria Co. PA (not Cleveland) in 2000 and was buried at Holy Name Cemetery, Ebensburg.
Here is a link to her actual gravesite:
Her husband Joseph A. Koss is buried at Lloyd.
I trust you'll make the correction.
Thank you!

Denied a link to parents?????
I sent in a request for you to link Elizabeth Fuller McComb's parents to her memorial site...and you denied it! You sent a note that confused the heck out of me...you said, "the memorial clearly says "mother" and "father"...is there something wrong with the memorial?"
Answer: No, there isn't. But I'm sure you'd agree that Elizabeth and her husband can't be HER PARENTS! This woman is the sister of my 2nd great-grandmother! I very well know who her parents are, and all I wanted you to do was to link her parents to her memorial.
I can't imagine why on God's green earth you would have denied that, but I'm going to request it again.

She was my great-grandmother who was born in July 1874 (her birth certificate was burned in a fire... so she was never sure of the exact date). She was 104 when she died. She washed the dishes at her 100th birthday party!
Could you link her to her daughters:
1. Lillian Shannon (died January 1980)
2. Louella Smail (died 1966?)
3. Viola George (Indiana, Pa....Ben Franklin Road)
Thank you,

I need this ground cover to be real sturdy, I have to drive on it 10 times a year ,Its on a steep slope and it is mostly shady, just a little sun. As it is now I have to maintain the sand on this driveway bed almost every time I use it. It gets large bumps after about twice using it. To get up this slope I have to take a run at it and the real problem is only at the top were little grows now. |

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia - View original article
Sizzlean was a cured meat product manufactured throughout the 1970s and 1980s as a purportedly healthier alternative to bacon. It was originally produced by Swift & Co., who rolled it out to major United States markets in 1977.[1][2][3] In 1990, ConAgra Foods acquired Swift from Beatrice Foods and continued to market the product until about 2005.
Sizzlean was the subject of a memorable series of commercials featuring the tagline: "Move over, bacon, there's something leaner!" or "Move over, bacon, now there's something meatier!"
Though the product contained much less fat than bacon, it was still 37% fat by weight, causing complaints that the "lean" name was not accurate.[4]

Golden Eagle Retail Group Ltd. (3308), a department store operator based in eastern China's Jiangsu province, said 2011 profit gained 26 percent as it benefited from shoppers' rising incomes. Shares rose.
Net income rose to 1.21 billion yuan ($192 million), or 0.62 yuan a share, from 959.2 million yuan, or 0.49 yuan, a year earlier, the company said in a Hong Kong stock exchange filing yesterday. Profit matched the average estimate of 1.2 billion yuan from 16 analysts surveyed by Bloomberg News.
Sales jumped 31 percent to 3.22 billion yuan in 2011, and same-store sales gained 25 percent. Consumers in the world's most populous nation are getting wealthier as urban disposable income rose 14 percent to about 21,810 yuan in 2011.
The Nanjing-based department store operator said it plans to open five to eight stores annually over the coming three years, expanding its presence in Jiangsu, Anhui, Shaanxi and Yunnan provinces. New outlets may be in self-owned or leased real estate or may be acquired, Golden Eagle said.
Golden Eagle rose 5.4 percent to HK$20.15 in Hong Kong, the highest close since March 2. The stock has gained 23 percent this year, compared with the benchmark Hang Seng Index's 16 percent advance.
The company will pay a final dividend of 0.188 yuan a share for 2011, compared with 0.15 yuan a share for 2010.
