My first thread so I'm a noob at this. I bought a 2011 Tacoma Double Cab, Prerunner Off Road Package about two months ago. It's MGM(as everyone describes it). No real problems with it and I agree there is things Toyota could have done better. Gauges, nav, leather interior option, rear disc brakes would have been nice and less attention to cupholders. Great stickies on the arm rest change (fabric? who thought of doing that) on the doors. I'm going to do that change. I have a dog (australian shepherd) who stands on the fabric to keep his head outside (lot of wear and tear on that). The whole CD area is pretty plain, so I like the stuff on what people are doing with navs, or double dins,etc. Since Toy doesn't offer nav in the Tacoma's. I think the first thing I want to do is add additional gauges, oil pressure, water temp, voltage, just the normal stuff to keep an eye on.
Here's my prob and I couldn't find anyone else to mention this. Has anyone ever seen the drip moldings missing (the seam on the cab that is welded together and covered with the rubber strip? I ran a search and didn't see this topic so bear with me. I'm missing one and I guess I missed it when I looked it over at the dealer. I can't imagine this thing just flying off so I guess it could have been "stolen". Does anyone know how much is reasonable to replace it? Or do you think it might have been "stolen". It doesn't look like an easy part to pry off without marking up the top. No scratches or anything on my top. I'm going back to the dealer and ask them to replace it. I know, fat chance they will.
Thanks guys, I'll be looking for solutions.

Mammoth Cargo Plane Key to Global Supply Chain for 787
EVERETT, Washington_A gigantic, humpback-shaped cargo plane has been turning heads in the skies over the Seattle area for months as it's undergone hundreds of hours of flight tests.
It's about to become a more common sight in a lot more places, as it begins carrying large chunks of Boeing Co.'s new 787 Dreamliner from factories in Japan and Italy, South Carolina and Kansas to the company's widebody assembly plant here.
It's called the Dreamlifter - a lofty name for a jet whose bulbous fuselage has earned it no shortage of pot shots.
Scott Carson, Boeing Co.'s commercial airplanes chief, drew some hearty laughs last year when he told a banquet hall full of aviation enthusiasts it was a plane "only a mother could call pretty."
"Paint helps a little bit, but it's kind of like putting lipstick on a pig," quipped Mike Bair, head of Boeing's 787 program.
Others look past its odd appearance and see a marvel of aeronautical engineering and manufacturing logistics.
After toying with various design concepts, from a pod on top of the plane to a large side door, engineers decided to lop off the top of a 747-400 passenger plane, fatten up the fuselage, then add hinges to one side of the tail so it can swing open.
Boeing buys the 747s used, strips them down and turns them into Dreamlifters in Taipei. Once the top gets torn off, "it literally looks like a flatbed truck," said Mike Bunney, director of global logistics for the 787 program. "Some people have jokingly referred to it as Topless in Taipei."
Two Dreamlifters are flying as Boeing awaits certification from the Federal Aviation Administration. A third is being modified in Taipei, and a fourth is waiting its turn.
At 65,000 cubic feet (1,840 cubic meters), the Dreamlifter's cargo capacity is more than twice that of the 747 freighters that shipping companies like United Parcel Service Inc. fly.
A less eye-catching but equally important piece of the Dreamlifter puzzle is a long, 32-wheeled cargo loader that drives up to the open-tailed freighter and pulls out fuselage sections, wings, whatever shipment the plane is carrying.
The loader is "designed to be kind of one-stop shopping," Bunney said. "You can get parts in and out of the airplane then move them around the factory site with the same device, so it simplified the whole logistics process."
Without the Dreamlifter, Boeing would have to wait several weeks for certain 787 parts made entirely or mostly of light, sturdy carbon-fiber composites to arrive by sea, leaving "an unbelievable amount of in-process inventory out bobbing around on the ocean," Bair said.
Another problem: Some parts, like the wings and center fuselage, are so large they won't fit in standard shipping containers.
"If we had decided to do ocean shipping, we probably would've had to buy our own ships," Bair said.
This is the first time Boeing has designed a plane simply to play a supporting role in the production of another plane.
Airbus SAS has been flying its own superfreighter, nicknamed the "Beluga," since the mid-1990s to carry fuselage sections and wings from factories around Europe to its final assembly lines in Toulouse, France, and Hamburg, Germany.
Its fleet of five Belugas has also been used for charter missions to transport space station modules, chemical tanks, even a large French painting.
The Beluga is smaller than the Dreamlifter, though the bulge on the top half of its fuselage is much more pronounced than the Dreamlifter's, and it opens up at the nose rather than the tail.
Ironically enough, from the 1970s to early 1990s, Airbus ran a fleet of four modified Boeing 377 Stratocruisers nicknamed "Super Guppies" to transport plane parts from factories to final assembly plants.
Airbus spokeswoman MaryAnne Greczyn said the Beluga will be used to transport parts of the A350, the midsize jet Airbus is developing to compete with the 787, but the fuselage will probably have to be shipped some other way because it's expected to be too large for the Beluga.

O'Brien Set To Boost United Defence
Leeds United are expected to announce that Andy O'Brien has joined the club from Bolton on a one-month loan deal later today. The experienced defender has been recruited by United in order to plug a defence that has conceded 15 goals in their last five games. O'Brien has slipped behind Gary Cahill, Zat Knight and Sam Ricketts in the Reebok pecking order since the start of the season.

A spotlight on the women!
Been a little busy, but without further ado: lets start the review! (boy, I am a poet! it rhyme!) This second issue of Duck Tales was interesting. There were several things I liked about it and some things I didn't so much like.
How 'bout we start with a recap of the story thus far, shall we? If you read my review from issue #1, you would know that the Quinta-Quadrillion-zillionaire (their term, not mine), Uncle Scrooge had made a bet with John D. Rockerduck (a rich duck with a manipulative streak) on who can return the most artifacts to their rightful owners (which is insadently the name of this arc). In this issue, we can really tell Rockerduck doesn't want to loose thie bet. We had previously seen his stoug Agent X (whoever that is…I have my suspicions) tell several familiar Disney Duck Villains where Scrooge would be going on his travels to win the bet.
Differences from Duck Tales (the show)
One of the gangs this agent of Rockerduck had hired was the Beagle boys. The Beagle boys are red-clothed…well, Beagles, who all have numbers. In the Uncle Scrooge Comics (as well as other Duck-centered Disney Comics), this group are all identical. However, on the Tv Show Duck Tales (which this series supposedly is based on) we saw more individuality in this group (there was big time and several others who were not called by their numbers but their names). My personal favorite was Ma Beagle who was voiced by the talented June Foray (who also voiced Magica De Spell on the show). Which is why I was excited when I saw the familiar Duck Tales Beagles on the Cover B (which I have), but I was let down as they all look like they are all clones.
If you were hoping for a series solely based on Duck Tales the Tv Show, then you would be disappointed. The art is really similar to that of the Uncle Scrooge comics, in fact some of the shading of the shadows is almost barks or rosa esce. My fear is that this series will merely be a replacement for Uncle Scrooge now that Disney has pulled the plug on Boom!'s licence for that series. This series has so much potiental, so I dearly hope it doesn't become just another Scrooge McDuck adventures so it can stands out in the future.
Spotlight on the Women!
One of the things which makes me continue reading is the title of my review. On the tv show, we saw several female characters but they were never major characters. Here however, we see a strong FEMALE hero and a strong FEMALE villain. On the show, Webby was just an annoying tag-along, but here she is a smart "can take care of her self" kind of girl who is clever enough to defeat most of the Beagle boys. The Villain was the person I noted the previous issue: Camile Chameleon (a darkwing duck villain…a foreshadowing for the crossover?). She was a perfect character for this issue and made it entertaining.
In short, the issue was alright. The writing is great and, although the art is currently spotty and inconsistent with the show, this series shows some protental.

The best of Mont Blanc
I'd been skiing in the Alps a number of times but never visited in the summer, I can't believe what I've been missing out on! From the moment we arrived we were made to feel very welcome by our hosts Jeremy and Marie - our base at their farmhouse was very comfortable and all the meals, home cooked by Marie were delicious (the wine was excellent too!) Our guide each day, Greg was very knowledgable and delightful. We we're very lucky with the weather - great views of Mt Blanc, the first day was long (but worth it) - all the other days were around 4 - 5 hours and varied throughout the week. A great week's walking in a beatutiful part of the world!

Synchronous communication between .NET applications and Web services makes the user wait while each Web service processes requests and returns results. This can have a severe impact on the performance of the .NET application. Typically, a distributed .NET application requires information from multiple Web services. If the application performs the entire process of invoking the Web services synchronously, a client must wait not only until every Web service provider is contacted, but also through any connection or service delays. Asynchronous Web services invocation solves this performance issue and enhances the end user experience by increasing server efficiency. With the introduction of .NET Framework 2.0, Microsoft has greatly enhanced the support for asynchronous Web services invocation by introducing a new event-based programming model. This article examines this new feature and demonstrates how to take advantage of it to create feature-rich and effective .NET applications. It also shows how to perform data binding directly with the results the Web service returns. Previous versions of the .NET Framework used the BeginInvoke/EndInvoke methods to invoke a Web service asynchronously. Version 2.0 adds a new way to asynchronously invoke Web services: an event-based asynchronous programming model. It enables this new event programming model through the creation of properties and methods on the client proxy class. To follow the demonstration for implementing this model, you must first create a simple Web service that then can be invoked asynchronously from the client application. The following section walks you through the process. Open Visual Studio 2005 and select New->Web Site from the File menu. In the New Web Site dialog box, select ASP.NET Web service from the list of project templates, and specify the name of the Web service as AsyncWebServices. Once you have created the Web site, add a new Web service file named HelloService.asmx to the project. If you open the file and view the code, you will find a method named HelloWorld already placed in the code-behind file of the Web service. For the purposes of this example, just utilize this default sample method. Here is the code from the code-behind file of the HelloService: Now that you've created the Web service, if you right click on it and select View in Browser, you will see the screen shown in Figure 1. Figure 1. View Newly Created Web Service in Browser If you click on the HelloWorld method, you will see the screen shown in Figure 2. Figure 2. View HelloWorld Method in Browser Clicking on the Invoke button in the Figure 2 results in the screen shown in Figure 3. Figure 3. Invocation of HelloWorld Method Figure 3 shows the output produced by the HelloWorld method. Now that you have implemented and tested the Web service, you can move on to the client application that will consume the Web service. In this section, you create a Windows Forms application to consume the Web service. Create a new Visual C# Windows Forms application named AsyncWebServicesClient. Next, add a Web reference to the CategoriesService by selecting Project->Add Web Reference from the menu. In the Add Web Reference dialog box, enter the location of the Web service and hit GO. Then, specify the name of the Web reference as HelloWorldServiceProxy, as shown in Figure 4. Figure 4. Specify the Name of the Web Reference as HelloWorldServiceProxy Now you are ready to consume the Web service. To start, import the Web service proxy namespace at the top of the Form1: To the form, add a command button named btnInvokeHelloWorld and modify the click event of the command button to look as follows: The above code shows the event handler HelloWorldCompleted (that is available through the proxy of the Web service) being hooked up to a local method named HelloWorldCompleted. The method named HelloWorldAsync provides a way to asynchronously invoke the HelloWorld method. The new <MethodName>Async provides a seamless way to asynchronously consume the Web service from a client application. For example, if you have a Web service method named GetCategories and you want to leverage the asynchronous invocation framework, you need to do two things: The local HelloWorldCompleted method is defined as follows: After the Web service has finished its execution and returned the results, the .NET Framework will automatically invoke the above HelloWorldCompleted method. As you can see, this method takes two arguments: an object of type "object" and a "HelloWorldCompletedEventArgs" object. You can capture the results returned by the Web service by using the Result property of the HelloWorldCompletedEventArgs object (as shown in the above code). In this example, the output the Web service returns is displayed in a message box. Apart from the new Web service asynchronous invocation framework, .NET Framework 2.0 also introduces a new feature through which you can perform data binding, with the results returned from the Web service in a seamless manner. This section demonstrates this feature with a practical example. It begins by creating the Web service. To start, add a new Web service to the AsyncWebServices project by right-clicking on the project and selecting Add New Item from the context menu. In the Add New Item dialog box, select Web service from the list of templates and name the Web service CategoriesService.asmx. Modify the code-behind of the CategoriesService.asmx file to look as follows: The above code first encloses the SqlConnection object within the scope of a using block. Then, it retrieves the connection string from the ConnectionStrings section of the web.config file: The code stores the connection string directly under the root <configuration> element in the web.config as follows: Then, it sets the retrieved connection string to the ConnectionString property of the SqlConnection object. After that, the code creates an instance of the SqlCommand object, passing to its constructor the SQL statement to be executed and the SqlConnection object as arguments. Then, it sets the CommandType property of the SqlCommand object to CommandType.Text to indicate that it wants to execute a SQL statement through the SqlCommand object: Next, it creates an instance of the SqlDataAdapter and passes in the SqlCommand object to its constructor: After that, the code creates a DataSet object and then supplies the DataSet object as an argument to the Fill method of the SqlDataAdapter object: Finally, it returns the DataSet object back to the caller using the return statement: Now that you have seen the implementation of the Web service, take a look at the client application that will consume the Web service. Open the previously created AsyncWebServicesClient project from Visual Studio 2005. Add a Web reference to the CategoriesService by selecting Project->Add Web Reference from the menu. In the Add Web Reference dialog box, enter the location of the Web service and specify the name of the Web reference as CategoriesServiceProxy. Once the Web reference is created, you can import the namespace of the proxy using the following line: Next, open Form1 and drag and drop a DataGrid control onto the Form designer. Add another command button named btnInvokeCategories to the form and modify the code in the Click event to look like the following: The implementation of the GetCategoriesCompleted method is as follows: As you can see, the DataSet returned from the Web service is directly bound to a DataGrid control and displayed on the form. If you run the form and click on the Invoke Categories Service button, you will see the output shown in Figure 5. Figure 5. Run the Form and Click on the Invoke Categories Service Button As Figure 5 shows, the categories information that the Web service returns is directly data bound to the DataGrid control. The new asynchronous invocation framework that .NET Framework 2.0 introduced is an extremely useful feature that can go a long way toward increasing developer productivity. You can leverage the framework to increase the responsiveness of a .NET application, which greatly enhances the user experience as well. This tutorial provided a thorough discussion of the asynchronous Web service invocation features of .NET Framework 2.0 and provided examples. It also showed how to perform data binding with the results returned from a Web service. Although the application you created was simple in functionality, it should provide a solid foundation for understanding how to easily implement the asynchronous Web service invocation feature in your .NET applications.

Hello Kitty
4 years
I haven't seen it in person yet, so I can't speak with certainty, but it's definitely geared toward adults -- though I'm guessing a few little girls will see Kitty and ooh and aah as well. It's definitely for a girlier type of lady. I'm intrigued by the nail art, but most of the other things are a little softer and shinier than what I go for.
4 years
I'm not pro or con on this stuff and I just can't figure it out. Is it trying to reach a younger market sorta making them yearn to wear makeup when mommy says "when you're a bit older", is it just a cutesy/collector/fun thing, is it serious makeup? I'm so confused.

Harry Hill used to tell a joke the amusing nature of which I will utterly fail to convey.
However, this shaggy dog story - that possessed a nugget of profound truth at its heart - involved two scoops of mash.
As a child little Hal was restricted by his mother to two scoops of mash, something which riled a big-collared kid with grand ambitions.
Rude Britannia, Tate Britain
Four hundred years of comics, satires, caricatures and cartoons tell the story of a subversive Britain ready to stick a pin in over-inflated pomposity.

Potters held by Wednesday
Stoke boss Tony Pulis fielded two sides as his men drew 0-0 in their pre-season friendly at Sheffield Wednesday. The Potters, who were in Europa League action on Thursday, fielded eight of those players that beat Hadjuk Split in the opening 45 minutes at Hillsborough before making wholesale changes at the break. Trialist Juvhel Tsoumou was handed a start in midfield for Wednesday along with summer signings David Prutton and Jose Semedo. With so many changes at half-time, it was a low-key encounter against the League One side, with Diego Arismendi coming closest to breaking the deadlock when he hit the woodwork late on. The Owls will begin their quest for promotion from League One next week when they host Rochdale.

League Changes Could Be Coming Soon
League Changes Could Be Coming Soon
Jay Adams
Published May 20, 2013 at 2:44 PMNFL team owners will meet in Boston for their annual spring meeting with plenty of interesting proposals on the docket. Along with voting on where Super Bowl L and Super Bowl LI will be held, the owners will also vote on the fate of the Pro Bowl format.
From ESPN's John Clayton:
Also on the table are incentives to reward squads for scores by the half or the quarter. Two-minute warnings could be added in the first and third quarters. The league is open to any suggestion, but such major changes would need support to be implemented. If the league changes the Pro Bowl, players have to brace for the consequences. If the moves fail, there probably won't be a Pro Bowl by 2016 or '17.
Unrelated to the meetings comes the report from ESPN's Adam Schefter that the league is looking into shifting the league year around a bit, including backing the NFL Draft up into May instead of its traditional spot late in April.
ProFootballTalk.com details some of the potential changes that could occur here.
