Toyota introduces the all-new 2011 Scion tC sports coupe [Video]
Posted by: TimothyT on: 08/06/2010 12:54 PM in Automotive [ Print ]
The all-new tC adds new styling, enhanced performance, and technologies that add to the driver's experience. It remains a tremendous value with more power, increased fuel efficiency, superior driving dynamics, and more safety features.
"The all-new tC features styling that is both refined and aggressive, appealing to a sports coupe owner who wants to make a bold statement," said Jack Hollis, vice president of Scion. "When the tC first launched in 2004, it quickly became Scion's best selling vehicle. We took the already successful tC, added a long list of enhancements, and attached a price tag that makes it a tremendous value. The new tC will no doubt launch Scion into a whole new dimension."
More Power and Better Fuel Efficiency
The all-new 2.5-liter inline four-cylinder engine offers the latest in efficient, lightweight technology, including Dual Variable Valve Timing with intelligence (VVT-i), roller rocker arms and a Variable-induction Intake Manifold System that changes the length of the air-intake pipe to supply more torque on demand.
The new engine produces 180 horsepower, 19 more than the previous model, and 11 additional lbs.-ft of torque. Performance is further improved through a new intake-manifold design and a sport-tuned lightweight exhaust system that delivers a noticeably bold and aggressive sound.
The tC offers drivers the choice of two all-new six-speed transmissions, each adding driving excitement and excellent fuel economy. The manual transmission features confident shifts that are direct and precise. The automatic transmission boasts sequential shifting, providing an additional fun-to-drive element.
As a result, the 2011 tC has quicker acceleration, and an increase in fuel economy over the previous generation tC.
The all-new tC adds electronic power-steering system that contributes to increased fuel efficiency.
Enhanced Driving Performance
The 2011 tC enters its second-generation riding on an enhanced platform, including a MacPherson strut front-suspension and a double-wishbone rear-suspension that were specially tuned to offer the driver a sporty ride that is both nimble and confident. Larger 18-inch aluminum-alloy wheels are wrapped in wider tires, giving the tC a broader stance and elevated handling characteristics. The new model also comes standard with disc brakes on all corners that are larger than its predecessor's.
Aggressive Styling
The tC's all-new design projects a bolder, more aggressive stance. Inspired by the Calty-designed Scion FUSE concept, the tC is a high-impact sports coupe with simple and unique elements.
Calty designers took inspiration from the athletic look of a racing helmet. As a result, one of the boldest design features of the new tC is the sleek cabin shape with wrap-around window graphics that add to its sporty profile.
Adding to the fresh design approach is a strong, renegade face. The sleek front grille and projector headlamps are complemented by protruding fender flares, which amplify its wider, lower stance. The front interlocks with the dynamic, muscular rear fenders. The shape of the rear taillights flow cleanly into the overall shape of the trunk, finalizing the iconic and purposeful nature of the design.
The tC can be wrapped in an urban palette of seven colors: Super White, Silver Streak Mica, Black, Magnetic Gray Metallic, Sizzling Crimson Mica, Nautical Blue Metallic and the all-new Cement.
Interior Design Offers both Comfort and Convenience
The sporty design of the new tC carries over to the interior with a look and feel that is sophisticated, sporty and functional. The front cabin design provides a driver-centered cockpit with spaciousness and freedom for the front passenger. A tilt-and-telescopic steering wheel features a flat bottom that provides additional thigh room. Dual illuminated combination meters for the speedometer and tachometer have a three-dimensional appearance with large meters and needle indicators for good visibility. The trip meters also include gauges for outside temperature, average MPG, and an ECO-drive indicator on automatic transmission models that helps the driver maximize the tC's fuel efficiency.
The sporty new tC does not sacrifice driver and passenger comfort. As part of the redesign, engineers made significant interior upgrades in the area of driver and passenger comfort and convenience.
Among the many interior comfort features is a driver walk-through seat- memory function for both the seat and backrest. The driver and front passenger bucket seats and rear passenger seats are upholstered with premium fabric designs. Added comfort was accomplished by making the seats thicker, with firmer seat bolsters, while the driver seat is six-way adjustable. Entry and exit for rear passengers is made easy with a walk-in lever located at shoulder level on the front seats. For added comfort and utility, the rear seats are 60:40 split and recline up to 10 degrees.
Staying true to Scion tradition, the new tC has an abundance of storage throughout. Additional driver and passenger comforts include four bottle holders, a large console box that can hold up to 18 CDs, two cup holders, a flat storage area in front of the console, an assist grip handle, sun visors with vanity mirrors and a map light.
Audio System Designed to Impress
The tC features a powerful standard audio system with a total of 300-watts feeding the eight-speaker sound package. With an emphasis on amazing sound quality, the tC's stereo system shares some speaker components with the Lexus LX 570, and features mid-range and woofer speakers that are superior.
The tC comes standard with a Pioneer AM/FM/CD head unit with USB iPod® connectivity. The 160-watt Pioneer head unit powers the tweeters, mid-range and full-range speakers, while a separate 140-watt, two-channel amplifier is designed to drive power to the 6x9-inch door-mounted woofers.
The standard head unit integrates track, artist and album information from the iPod® into a one-line display on the head unit's screen. Connectivity is achieved by simply plugging the iPod® into a port via a USB connector cable, while the car's stereo system provides outstanding sound quality and constant power to the iPod®. Music is controlled through the head unit and steering wheel audio controls. An auxiliary port is also standard, allowing users to listen to various portable music players.
The optional Alpine Premium audio system has the same basic features as the standard Pioneer audio, but adds a 4.3-inch color touch-panel thin-film-transistor (TFT) screen, HD Radio™ technology, Media Expander (MX) and front and rear RCA outputs. Passengers can listen to HD Radio™ technology with the premium audio system and view text, song titles, album and artist name on the head unit. Alpine's MX improves compressed audio sound often found on digital music. The RCA outputs allow for up to three amplifiers -- front, rear and subwoofer. The optional audio system is also navigation and back-up camera ready.
Scion also offers an optional plug-in navigation unit for the Alpine Premium audio system. Navigation and audio functions utilize the head unit screen for display. Features include voice guidance; day and night screen modes; support in English, French and Spanish; 200 available address book entries; map coverage across the U.S. and Canada including Puerto Rico, the U.S. Virgin Islands and Hawaii; three map views (3-D, north up, and heading up); and more than six million points of interest. Users can also program up to three destinations before arriving at their final programmed stop. Scion makes this navigation unit customizable by allowing the user to change the vehicle position icon from an arrow to an icon of the tC, which can be customized to the seven tC exterior colors.
Both the standard and premium head units retain key Scion audio system features such as Scion Sound Processing® (SSP) where listeners can choose from three pre-set equalizer settings, satellite radio compatibility and MP3, AAC and WMA capability. In addition, both units adjust the volume control based on driving speed.
A Scion Navigation System is also available, featuring an audio/video/navigation unit with a seven-inch LCD touch screen. The system also has iPod® connectivity; SSP; Alpine Equalizer; Alpine Focus, which allows users to move the center of the sound field; Clear Sound Effecter (CSE) to enhance compressed digital music data; Alpine Digital Sound Processing (DSP); automatic volume adjust; and satellite radio capability. This audio system also features HD Radio™ capabilities including HD Tagging, rich sound and on-screen text information, as well as Bluetooth® Hands-free mobile phone communication and Bluetooth® Streaming Audio.
Added Standard Safety Features
The second-generation tC will add a supplemental restraint system (SRS) front passenger knee airbag, bringing the total number of airbags to eight. Additional SRS airbags include driver and front passenger airbags, driver and front passenger seat-mounted side airbags, driver knee airbag, and side curtain airbags.
All 2011 tCs will come standard with Anti-lock Brakes (ABS) and Electronic Brake-force Distribution (EBD). New for tC and also standard equipment are Brake Assist (BA), Traction Control (TRAC), Vehicle Stability Control (VSC) and a brake override system. The tC will also feature a button that allows the driver to turn off the VSC and/or the TRAC features.
Additional safety features include a tire pressure monitoring system and newly adopted active front headrests.
The all-new Scion tC is positioned to attract a youthful buyer that demands a high level of standard equipment and quality at an affordable price. The tC starts with a manufacturer's suggested retail price (MSRP) of $18,275 when equipped with a manual transmission, and $19,275 when equipped with an automatic transmission.
The delivery, processing and handling (DPH) fee for all Scion models is $720 and is not included in the MSRP. DPH fee for vehicles distributed by Southeast Toyota (SET) and Gulf States Toyota (GST) may vary.
Limited Warranty
Scion's 36-month/36,000 mile basic new-vehicle warranty applies to all components other than normal wear and maintenance items. Additional 60-month warranties cover powertrain for 60,000 miles and corrosion with no mileage limitation. Scion dealers have complete details on the limited warranty.
All Scion models come with complimentary factory-recommended maintenance services at the first 5,000 mile and 10,000 mile intervals, to be performed by an authorized Scion or Toyota dealership.

Well folks some have openly stated that we should save face and tank the rest of the season and avoid a first round embarrassing sweep by the Cavs or Celtics. Even a first round match-up vs the our whipping boys Magic may not come into fruition. Even Curry as Lee says appears to be sabotaging potential wins with asinine "rotations". crunch time play calling and momentum stopping time outs. Some have indicated we may as well grab the glory from a possible lottery pick, but even if were to miss the playoffs falling into the 13 slot would be the best we could possibly do swapping spots with Charlotte below if they do indeed steal the last spot from us. We would need a lot of luck to actually go from 13 to 1 or 2 with them balls. Here is whom the supposed top prospects are...do you think we have anyone on our squad who we could possibly trade to move up 12 spots????? 2009 Mock Lottery 2009 Mock Draft | 2010 Mock Draft | Create Mock Updated: 3/31/09 2:09 am 1Sacramento Blake GriffinSo................................................................. 2Washington Hasheem ThabeetJr........................................................... 3LA Clippers Jordan HillJr...................................................................... 4Memphis James HardenSo................................................................... 5Oklahoma Cty Brandon JenningsIntl...................................................... 6*Minnesota Demar DeRozanFr.............................................................. 7Golden St. Earl ClarkJr......................................................................... 8Toronto Gerald HendersonJr................................................................. 9*New York Cole AldrichSo.................................................................. 10New Jersey Craig BrackinsSo............................................................. 11IndianaC hase BudingerJr.................................................................. 12Milwaukee Al-Farouq AminuFr............................................................. 13Charlotte Eric MaynorSr.................................................................... 14Phoenix Stephen CurryJr...................................................................
I may be wrong (and I'm to lazy to check), but I thought that the most a team could move up or down is 5 spots. Maybe I'm thinking of hockey?
It hasn't happen yet, but the team with the best record in the lottery could upset whole [strike]apple cart[/strike] er, ping pong drum by getting that first pick...with the right combination... NBA.com: Evolution of the Lottery TODAY'S LOTTERY Under the system, 14 ping-pong balls numbered 1 through 14 are placed in a drum. There are 1,001 possible combinations when four balls are drawn out of 14, without regard to their order of selection. Prior to the Lottery, 1,000 combinations are assigned to the Lottery teams based on their order of finish during the regular season. Four balls are drawn to the top to determine a four-digit combination. The team that has been assigned that combination will receive the number one pick. The four balls are placed back in the drum and the process is repeated to determine the number two and three picks. (Note: If the one unassigned combination is drawn, the balls are drawn to the top again.)
Hmmmm, Steph Curry is a combo guard who's strength of shooting is offset by his lack of size and a position to play. He sounds like a Piston to me.
PHX with their record and standing in the West are pretty much a lock for 14 which is the last pick in the draft. Basically if we do not make the playoffs its the 13th pick ( with a very small chance at top 3 ) and if we make it we get 15th.
ROFL Well we could certainly use his three point shooting, but I think you can always find good shooters in free agency. I don't think we need to waste our draft pick on one.
I'd say they are comparable as stand still shooters, though I think Curry is better at creating his own shot and making tough contested shots. I think he's a better ball handler and passer than Reddick, though I wouldn't call that area of his game a "strength" parse. Neither one is a good defender, due to lack of size and lateral quickness. I'd say his NBA prospects are slightly better than Reddick's. I don't think he's starter material for a good team.
Hasheem Thabeet is massively overrated BTW. This guy, despite playing 3 years at the collegiate level, STILL doesn't have a polished post game. In the 3 big games this year (2 vs. Pitt, MSU) he failed to show up at all and really make an impact. He seems a bit soft to me. Here's an interesting portion DraftExpress... DraftExpress NBA Draft Prospect Profile: Hasheem Thabeet, Stats, Comparisons, and Outlook "The most evident thing to come out of this game was how much Thabeet dislikes contact around the basket. He was knocked to the floor a good 12-15 times by the much more physical (yet extremely undersized) Spartans, and looked extremely frustrated in turn. His extreme lack of balance has never looked more obvious, as he looked about as clumsy as he has since his freshman year with the amount of time he spent laying on the ground." You have to love his size and length, but I still think this guy is a project in the NBA. Seems to be just a slightly bigger more polished version of Amir to me. I wouldn't waste a lottery pick on him.
Curry does have decent NBA size though, I was surprised. At 6-3, he could be comparable to say Devin Harris who turned out to be a much better point guard than alot of people though coming out of Wisconsin. Seems as though Curry has a nose for getting to the rim, so he might pan out. Give him a few years to put on some weight, and improve his quickness and ball handling, and he might pan out as a good NBA point guard, but I think he should focus on the point guard role, as he would have trouble defending NBA 2's.
I think it's hard say that Thabeet is more polished than Amir. He really is clueless with the ball in his hands.
I don't really like him at the point, but he doesn't have the size to guard two's either. I think the best case scenerio for Curry is a Jason Terry type, a guy who can fill it up, who is best suited coming off the bench in a 6th man type of role. The Harris comparison isn't a good one IMO. Harris is much quicker and a lot better at finishing at the rim. Harris, while not a "true" point, is pretty good at setting up his teammates off of dribble penetration. Curry is a better shooter of the two.
agree. plus he looked way out of shape last night. except for one play where he made it down the court to finish a break and1, he was not getting up and down to well, and was doing a lot of tugging on his shorts.
LOL, if you can't beat them... And Thaneet has one of the most pumchable faces in college basketball. Kind of reminds me of KG with his all bark and no bite demeanor. And he hits the ground harder than a sack of rocks.
He still has three more years of college seasoning than Amir and possibly 5 more inches of height. Seems to me he flops a lot too and can't take a hit like most big men.

Funny no one thought Tyler Hanbrough who by the way is coming out this year and I do believe that Lawson is also entering the draft.

Something tells me that Hansbrough me become a bust in the NBA.

Yoshino is the weakest out of the group, and is a goddess of Cherry Blossom.
Yoshino is a goddess of Cherry Blossom, and is the weakest in the group. She has pink twin-tails, and is scared of ghosts. Yoshino came into the group, after sending a special jar of ash (used to make cherry blossom bloom), to Mayu by accident. Mayu helped her find it again, she built up her self-confidence up after that.
Yoshino's specialty is making Cherry Blossom bloom, and is really good at evolving plants. She uses ash to make, the Cherry Blossom grow, once she accidentally sent some of the ash to Mayu, but they did in the end find it again.

Has anyone tried RAMPAGE IMPERIAL IPA from Black Diamond Brewing? I got got one from a friend and it was - well - FANTASTIC! I found the cone kit at www.grains-n-beans.com. Ordered two. Can't wait to brew 'em.
Yes, I've had it several times. It's one of my favorite IIPA's. If your still trying to brew it email the head brewer he is very helpful.
Maybe you can come back and post the exact recipe. Did you get the all-grain version?
I haven't brewed it yet so I don't want to post it. But I can pm it to you if you want. Just let me know.
that is my LHBS and they know what they are doing they also have a solid pliny kit in the winter I would highly recommend them to anyone

Before You Go
Nature Notes
While You're Out
Kelleys Island
About this Trail
The glacial grooves, carved during the ice age 18,000 years ago, will set you straight if you think that the glaciers were sort of over-sized ice cubes.
Kelleys Island State Park has 5-6 miles of hiking trails through various habitats. We were there in summer and the meadow flowers were spectacular.
We especially enjoyed sitting on the North Shore Alvar (an alvar is a challenging environment for plants and animals because it has little soil over the limestone), watching what we think was probably a Lake Erie Water Snake (it was in Lake Erie anyhow!).
Kelleys Island is part of a chain across the lake, and migratory birds island hop in the spring and fall.
For winter, there is cross-country skiing, ice skating, and ice fishing.
Put-in-Bay, on nearby South Bass Island, has a winery, a geode you can visit and lots of easy bike riding (and probably too many guys with many cases of beer waiting for the ferry on a Friday afternoon in the summer (-:).
Directions to Trailhead
(or put-in on water trails)
It is a 20 minute ferry ride. http://www.kelleysislandferry.com/ From the landing, you can rent bikes or kayaks (OK, this is "lake kayaking").
Notes on Difficulty Rating
Pets are permitted on some of the camp sites. Lake Erie is the shallowest of the Great Lakes so waves can be high in storms.

This Australian documentary, that has won praise from professionals in the field, highlights how real estate distorts the rest of the economy.

a neologism for sharing "rent" or "social surplus" – the money we spend on the nature we use. When we buy land, such as the land beneath a home, we typically pay the wrong person – the homeowner. Instead, since land cost us nothing to make and is the common heritage of us all, rather than pay the owner, we should pay ourselves, our neighbors, our community. That is, we should all pay land dues to the public treasury, then our government would pay us land dividends from this collected revenue. It's similar to the Alaska oil dividend, almost $2,000 last year. Indeed, the annual rental value of land, oil, all other natural resources, including the broadcast spectrum and other government-granted permits such as corporate charters, totals several trillion dollars each year. It's so much that some could be spent on basic social services, the rest parceled out as a dividend, as Tom Paine suggested, and taxes (except any on natural rents) could be abolished, as Thomas Jefferson suggested. Were we sharing Earth by sharing her worth, territorial disputes would be fewer, less intense, and more resolvable.
a scientific look at how we divvy up the work and the wealth, how some of us end up with too much or too little effort or reward. That's partly due to Ricardo's Law of Rent, showing how wasteful use of Earth cuts wages. And it's partly due to how a society's elite runs government around like water boys, dishing out subsidies and tax breaks. While geonomists look political reality right in the eye, without blinking, conventional economists flinch. When Paul Volcker, ex-chief of the Federal Reserve, moved on to a cushy professorship at Princeton cum book contract, the crush of deadlines bore down. So Volcker asked a junior associate to help with the book. The guy refused, explaining that giving serious consideration to policy would ruin his academic career. The ex-Fed chief couldn't believe it and asked the department chair if truly that were the case. That head honcho pondered the question then replied no, not if he only does it once. And economics was AKA political economy!
a way to connect the dots. Making the cyber rounds is "The Cavernous Divide" by Scott Klinger, from AlterNet (posted March 21): "As the number of billionaires in the world expands, so does the number of those in poverty." Duh. The yawning income gap is not news. Nearly every issue of our quarterly digest carries a similar quote. Yet the connection was worked out long ago by one of America's greatest thinkers, Henry George, who labeled his masterpiece, Progress and Poverty. Techno- and socio-advances always enrich few and impoverish many. Yet progress also pushes up location values – the geonomic insight (is Silicon Valley cheaper now or more expensive?). Instead of taxing income, sales, or buildings, society could collect those values of sites, resources, EM spectrum, and ecosystem services via fees and dues, which would lower the income ceiling, and instead of lavishing corporate welfare, pay out the recovered revenue via dividends, which would jack up the income floor. Dots connected.

Dots connected.
an answer to a rarely asked question. If price is a reward for production, why do we pay for land, never produced by any of us? What is land price a reward for? Good behavior? How much money do we spend on the nature we use? Who gets it? What do they do with it? (If you answer all these correctly, you're not a genius but a geoist.) The worth of Earth is enough that were we to collect and share it, we could abolish taxes on the goods we do produce. For example, San Francisco's Redefining Progress has calculated that Cali-fornia could abolish all state and local taxes were it to collect the values of resources and of using na-ture as a dump. By exorcising the profit motive from depletion and pollution, rent collection could replace bossy regulation. Economies could self-regulate, as the rest of the eco-system does. See how big problems yield to big answers when we ask the right questions?
the study of the money we spend on the nature we use. When we pay that money to private owners, we reward both speculation and over-extraction. Robert Kiyosaki's bestseller, Rich Dad's Prophecy, says, "One of the reasons McDonald's is such a rich company is not because it sells a lot of burgers but because it owns the land at some of the best intersections in the world. The main reason Kim and I invest in such properties is to own the land at the corner of the intersection. (p 200) My real estate advisor states that the rich either made their money in real estate or hold their money in real estate." (p 141, via Greg Young) When government recovers the rents for natural advantages for everyone, it can save citizens millions. Ben Sevack, Montreal steel manufacturer, tells us (August 12) that Alberta, by leasing oil & gas fields, recovers enough revenue to be the only province in Canada to get by without a sales tax and to levy a flat provincial income tax. While running for re-election, provincial Premier Ralph Klein proposes to abolish their income tax and promises to eliminate medical insurance premiums and use resource revenue to pay for all medical expense for seniors. After all this planned tax-cutting and greater expense, they still expect a large budget surplus. Even places without oil and gas have high site values in their downtowns, and high values in their utility franchises. Recover the values of locations and privileges, displace the harmful taxes on sales, salaries, and structures, then use the revenue to fund basic government and pay residents a dividend, and you have geonomics in action.
a manual. The world did not come without a way for people to prosper, and the planet to heal and stay well; that way is geonomics. Economies are part of the ecosystem. Both generate surpluses and follow self-regulating feedback loops. A cycle like the Law of Supply and Demand is one of the economy's on/off loops. Our spending for land and resources – things that nobody made and everybody needs – constitutes our society's surplus. Those profits without production (remember, nobody produced Earth) can become our commonwealth. To share it, we could pay land dues in to the public treasury (wouldn't oil companies love that?) and get rent dividends back, a la Alaska's oil dividend. Doing so let's us axe taxes and jettison subsidies. Taxes and subsidies distort price (the DNA of exchange), violate quid pro quo by benefiting the well-connected more than anyone else, reinforce hierarchy of state over citizen, and are costly to administer (you don't really need so much bureaucracy, do you?). Conversely, land dues motivate people to not waste sites, resources, and the ecosystem while rent dividends motivate people to not waste themselves. Receiving this income supplement – a Citizens Dividend – people can invest in their favorite technology or outgrow being "economan" and shrink their overbearing workweek in order to enjoy more time with family, friends, community, and nature. Then in all that free time, maybe we could figure out just what we are here for.
the annoying habit of seeing the hand of land in almost all transactions. In geonomics we maintain the distinction between the items bearing exchange value that come into being via human effort — wealth — and those that don't — land. Keeping this distinction in the forefront makes it obvious that speculating in land drives sprawl, that hoarding land retards Third World development, that borrowing to buy land plus buildings engorges banks, that much so-called "interest" is quasi-rent, that the cost of land inflates faster than the price of produced goods and services, that over half of corporate profit is from real estate (Urban Land Institute, 1999). Summing up these analyses, geonomists offer a Grand Unifying Theory, that the flow of rent pulls all other indicators in its wake. Geonomics differs from economics as chemistry from alchemy, as astronomy from astrology.
a POV that Spain's president might try. A few blocks from my room in Madrid at a book fair to promote literacy, Sr Zapatero, while giving autographs and high fives to kids, said books are very expensive and he'd see about getting the value added tax on them cut down to zero. (El Pais, June 4; see, politicians can grasp geo-logic.) But why do we raise the cost of any useful product? Why not tax useless products? Even more basic: is being better than a costly tax good enough? Our favorite replacement for any tax is no tax: instead, run government like a business and charge full market value for the permits it issues, such as everything from corporate charters to emission allowances to resource leases. These pieces of paper are immensely valuable, yet now our steward, the state, gives them away for nearly free, absolutely free in some cases. Government is sitting on its own assets and needs merely to cash in by doing what any rational entity in the economy does – negotiate the best deal. Then with this profit, rather than fund more waste, pay the stakeholders, we citizenry, a dividend. Thereby geonomics gets rid of two huge problems. It replaces taxes with full-value fees and replaces subsidies for special interests with a Citizens Dividend for people in general. Neither left nor right, this reform is what both nature lovers and liberty lovers need to promote, right now.
a study of Earth's economic worth, of the money we spend on the nature we use, trillions of dollars each year. We spend most to be with our own kind; land value follows population density. Besides nearness to downtowns, we also pay for proximity to good schools, lovely views, soil fertility, etc. These advantages, sellers did not create. So we pay the wrong people for land. Instead, we should pay our neighbors. They generate land's value and deserve compensation for keeping off ours, as they'd pay us for keeping off theirs. It's mutual compensation: we'd replace taxes with land dues – a bit like Hong Kong does – and replace subsidies with "rent" dividends to area residents – a bit like Alaska does with oil revenue. Both taxes and subsidies – however fair or not – are costly and distort the prices of the goods taxed and the services subsidized. By replacing them and letting prices become precise, we reveal the real costs of output, the real values of consumers. Then, just by following the bottom line, people can choose to conserve and prosper automatically. A community could start by shifting its property tax off buildings, onto land – a bit like a score of towns in Pennsylvania do; every place that has done it has benefited.

Faith and pro-life groups to hold press conference with new details in Pelletier case in Boston
BOSTON, Feb. 23, 2014 /PRNewswire-USNewswire/ — Reverend Patrick Mahoney, Personhood USA will hold a news conference on Monday, February 24, at 12:00 P.M.
The news conference will be held outside of the Suffolk County Juvenile Court where the father of Justina Pelletier is facing contempt charges for breaking a court imposed gag order. Mat Staver, Founder and Chairman of Liberty Counsel, will be in the courtroom along with the Pelletier's local counsel to represent the Pelletier family.
The groups will be calling for the State of Massachusetts to immediately return custody of Justina back to her family and discuss their national strategy in building a coalition for their efforts.
Rev. Patrick J. Mahoney, who organized events for Terri Schiavo in Florida and "Baby Joseph" in Canada and is the Director of the Christian Defense in Washington, D.C., states, "The Justina Pellitier case represents a troubling and disturbing trend of government officials usurping the rights of parents and disregarding their unique and special role in raising their children. We call upon the State of Massachusetts to immediately return Justina into the loving arms of her parents so the healing process can move forward. We also call upon the faith community and people of good will across the nation to work tirelessly and passionately until this family is reunited."
Personhood USA President Keith Mason adds, "The rights of Justina Pellitier and her family are clearly being violated. Justina is a person, not property of the State of Massachusetts. It is imperative that we stand together in defense of this young woman before it is too late."
Liberty Counsel's Mat Staver said, "Justina and her parents desperately need justice. The parents love their daughter and want to get her the bed medical treatment possible. Just last year in January Justina was involved in figure skating competitions. Now she is confined to a wheelchair. This is a heartbreaking tragedy that must end for the sake of Justina and her family."
Who: Reverend Patrick J. Mahoney and Personhood USA
What: News conference to discuss breaking details in the Pellitier case and to announce a new plan of action
Where : Suffolk County Juvenile Court (24 New Chardon Street, Boston)
When: Monday, February 24, at 12:00 P.M.

Is it okay if the groom's father is not the best man in the wedding? Should he still serve as a wedding usher, or should he be seated with his wife?
There is no rule that says the groom's father must be the best man; many grooms do choose dad to do the honor, but just as many select a brother or best friend. So of course it's okay! Having a dad stand up as groomsmen (or ushers) if they're not best man, but that doesn't mean the groom can't ask dad to do so. If the groom's father isn't part of the wedding party, he should sit in the first row with his wife. The role dad plays in the wedding is really a personal decision.

and one game out of the playoff conversation, for the team. Whether that's two carries or 25 carries who came into the game 32nd in the NFL in third-down conversions, though Andy Dalton and the passing game left a number of opportunities on the table. He missed A.J. Green for what would have been touchdowns twice. The first was an easy 5-yard throw near the goal line. Marvin Jones disappointed in replacing Mohamed Sanu (foot) with a costly drop that caused an interception. Jermaine Gresham fumbled and committed an unnecessary holding penalty on a long gain. Much like the win cheap nfl jerseys 500 passing/1, with backup DE Trevor Scott (two sacks even though rookie QB Nick Foles had his best game and rookie RB Bryce Brown had another strong one despite his fourth-quarter fumble. It was the defense that let the team down again, but it might be the worst defense in the league. The Eagles were once again carved up by the pass and they've had six straight games where the opposing quarterback has had a passer rating of 140.0 or better the offensive line struggled to open holes early. but that's what was happening. The Colts (8-4 who was a second alternate).Meanwhile, TDWhat they said about Packers S Burnett's third-quarter interceptions:• Packers coach McCarthy on Burnett's first one: "Morgan Burnett's interception in the end zone was the biggest play of the game. I thought our whole sideline turned after that. Halftime was not the best halftime that I've been a part of. Our guys were a little bit up and down when we came in. We just stuck to the adjustments and he gave us the boost. Morgan's playing very well. He's had big plays for us throughout the season. He's showing good veteran leadership back there." • Packers LB A.J. Hawk on Burnett's first one: "You can't affect the game in a more positive way than picking them off in the end zone when they're knocking on the door. That was huge. It took the momentum from them and we kind of ran with it after that." • Packers S Burnett on his second one: "It was a good defensive call. I trusted my technique. That put me in position to make the play nfl jerseys outlet but offensively we didn't play better than their offense and it kind of comes down to that a little bit. too. but the restaurant will be fined who appeared to almost feel betrayed by Young's selfishness. Sims had formed a relationship with Young," FS Eric Weddle said. "Defense played their tails off tonight. We gave ourselves a chance this, first-quarter touchdown pass from Stafford. His ability to make the play in double coverage should do wonders for his confidence as he battles ball security issues. ... Luck's touchdown pass to college teammate Coby Fleener was Fleener's only catch of the day nfl jerseys store he nailed Sidney Rice for the game-winning touchdown to put his team in control of a postseason berth. Grade: AAndrew Luck, an inexperienced QB. What Went WrongAnd so ends another inglorious season for the Jacksonville Jaguars. They still have to play out the schedule and held fellow wideout Julio Jones to 48 receiving yards. "We're playing better football," Frazier said. "We think he's a quality quarterback. He's our backup now. If he had to step in and play much worse since Todd Bowles replaced Juan Castillo as coordinator six games ago. Another plus – the Eagles were only penalized once for 5 yards and that's by far their cleanest game of the season. • I was wrong about Seattle quarterback Russell Wilson. The kid is damn good. I wasn't sure if a 5-foot-11 quarterback could be successful in the NFL. And when he won only one game on the road in his first five. |

Felix Warren

Appearance: A young adult that stands at above average height, this frame lean frame would be a bit hard to with his usual choice of baggy clothing. His near jet black is done up to a minimalistic comb to the right to cover his right eye and burn scars, which in turn cover over his ear to half way over the cheek under the eye. Personally allowing to be uncovered is of light mossy green, if gazed upon. If anything that he would be remembered for, would be his disarmingly soft smile that is always plastered across his façade. His own clothing style would be causal that had been touched with the color green in some trademark or artistic choice by the designer. Always carrying himself with airs of calmness if not a hint of lemony caution. ¬ Background Information: He had lived in pallet town the majority of his life, even before the strange events had wrecked and wracked the world. Having spent most this time alone studying by himself, after the house fire that was started by a wild Charmander that left him touched with the scar while escaping. Weeks after the Helios incident in a migraine had ravaged his head and the first signs of the latent psychic powers reared their head as he flung a stack of books off of a nearby shelf. Just recently he had begun broking free of introverted tendencies, more and more he had noticed the world had started changing and not for the best. Even if hes still a bit naive to the way is outside Pallet hed find answers; at least hed try to fix the world in the process. Pokemon Wishlist: Yamask, Gasly, Duskull, lampet, and Ditto. Goal: Find out why this world is getting more savage or at least try to make a dent in it for the better and out more out his own powers in the process. Writing Sample: Felix pulled off his headphones and let them fall to the nap of his neck while the black connection cord swayed slowly. Offering up a hand to the stranger, he placed the other casually against a cheek and gave off a small warm smile. Excuse me, I doubt weve been introduced. Announcing in a playful manner, while he made a few mental notes on what to make of this new individual. It couldnt hurt to be at least a bit social, could it? He thought as he canted his head off to one side in more of an attempt to hide his burns than being coy. Probable Character Class: Psychic followed by either an Empath, Influential or Hex Maniac mattering on how the game out.

Customer Reviews
Decent selection, but...
While rdio may be the best service of its kind, with a fairly decent catalog, the apps (OS X & iOS) leave something to be desired. Still no gapless playback on OS X, so listing to live music is quite annoying, if not intolerable. Come on... Even the iOS app seems to have gapless problems, at least recently. It would be also be nice if the app used downloadable content even when online instead of having to go offline to avoid data charges when not on wifi. It's also frustrating to have favorited albums drop off the catalog.
But, for me, gapless playback on all apps would be a significant improvement.
The Future of Music
Clean interface, smooth transitions, and fluid control throughout.
You'll find it easy & fast to navigate with more sophisticated functions than any music apps out there.
Critics reviews on albums, adding personal notes on albums, the option to play explicit or clean versions, notifications on new music from artists- all exclusive to Rdio.

I absolutely love rdio and recommend it to all my friends who stream music. The updates keep getting better and better and this latest one is no exception. I love the new easier way to add albums and songs to my favorites and downloads.
