BYU has bye week before preparing for Wisconsin
Matt Gade, Deseret News
PROVO — On the field at LaVell Edwards Stadium not long after BYU dispatched Boise State, 37-20, Friday night, athletic director Tom Holmoe eagerly accepted an invitation to the Fight Hunger Bowl in San Francisco on Dec. 27.
While coach Bronco Mendenhall was looking forward to seeing the Cougars (6-2) become bowl-eligible for the ninth consecutive year, he reminded everyone that there are a lot of important games to play before the bowl game.
And for the first time since going independent, BYU has a captivating November schedule, with a couple of high-profile games that could attract significant national attention.
The Cougars have a bye week before a showdown with nationally ranked Wisconsin of the Big Ten on Nov. 9 at Camp Randall Stadium.
The Badgers (5-2), led by former Utah State head coach Gary Andersen, had a bye this week and visit Iowa next Saturday.
"I'm thrilled to be able to go to San Francisco," Mendenhall said. "I look forward to playing the very best team we can play out of the Pac-12, then continuing a strong streak of bowl wins as well. I won't mention that again. I'm acknowledging it now because we just got invited and we accepted. So don't ask me again. We're going to Wisconsin next and that's really all I'll address."
BYU also has a game at Notre Dame on Nov. 23, and the regular-season finale at Nevada — which is senior linebacker Kyle Van Noy's hometown.
But first comes the bye week.
And the Cougars, who are riding a five-game winning streak, are looking to heal up. BYU lost a pair of key defensive backs — Daniel Sorensen and Mike Hague — to concussions against Boise State.
"Our team is going to need some rest and recovery," said Mendenhall. "I don't have the model yet down what we'll do through the bye week. But there will be some healing, some conditioning and some football. Then, when appropriate, we'll start to build into our game against Wisconsin."
More is expected to be learned about the status of Sorensen and Hague this week.
The Cougars are hopeful that both players are able to return for the Wisconsin game. Sorensen is a three-year starter at kat safety and he is extremely valuable not only to the defense, but also to the special teams.
"That was one of the first games we've ever played without Daniel Sorensen since he's been here," Mendenhall said after the win over Boise State. "It was different. (Safety) Craig Bills did a really nice job switching over and I'm so glad we had him back. It would be nice having them both playing at the same time. I was nervous and scared as I saw him on the field, same with Mike Hague. But I saw them both in the locker room (after the game)."
Bills missed the Houston game due to a concussion suffered against Georgia Tech. He returned Friday and forced a fumble.
"Danny's the best safety that's played at BYU, in my opinion," Bills said. "For him to be off the field, it's weird. Luckily, we have guys that can step in. Skye (PoVey) came played safety for us and I was able to move over to kat. I definitely don't want that to happen again, where Danny's not on the field."
BYU's defense forced four turnovers against Boise State.
"The turnovers were back-breaking," said Bronco coach Chris Petersen.
"That was one of the main differences in the game — being able to create turnovers and taking the football away," Mendenhall said. "I don't think we necessarily capitalized as well as we could have on those turnovers. But I think that had to do with the game's outcome."
Bills said the defense has been focusing on getting turnovers the past couple of weeks. The Cougars forced three turnovers against Houston.
Another big key for BYU's defense against Boise State was holding the Broncos to 2-of-5 on fourth-down conversion attempts.
"We knew all week that they were going to go for it on fourth down," said Cougar linebacker Alani Fua. "It's Boise State — that's what they do. But our team, we're physical. On fourth-and-one, we can stop them. That showed not only in this game, but last year, we stopped them five out of five times on fourth down."
"Boise's an aggressive team and they love to go for it on fourth down. Those stops are huge for emotional momentum as well as changing the game," Mendenhall said. "There's an emphasis that we place on it. Our players do a really nice job executing in those circumstances. Because we have good players, they find a way to make it happen."

How to Overwinter my summer rooted cuttings?
Most taken between June & July... they are rooted and most are now in pots outside...
I've heard you should overwinter them in a cool dry place like a basement... but I don't have that! My basement is HOT & that's not something I can change.
I have a sunroom that is unheated... problem is... it gets a lot of sun! Suggestions? I don't want to loose my babies!
personally, i would go for the sunroom - keep them properly watered. it also depends on the cultivar - some roses are more tolerant for frost than others. it really depends on what kind of temperature range your sunroom will experience, but if it is attached to the house, it might still be warm enough. i also asked the same question in my own thread (see down below in the same forum, and similar lack of answer because it all depends on the judgement of the gardener) - p.m.
Do you have an unheated garage or shed? That would be a good place for them to winter as long as you water them a little every month. I just think that that sunroom, even though cool, will be to warm and bright and they'll just keep on trying to grow in unfavorable conditions and exhaust themselves and die. Otherwise, for my money, I'd put them outside in the most protected spot in your yard and bury them in soil or mulch. Or even just dig them into the ground.
Hi EllaRose: Bluegirl in Texas posted a great tip on how heat at the bottom encourages root growth, see link below.
Roses die in my zone 5a mainly due to: 1) fluctuations in temp., thaw-and-freeze, and a sun-room will do just that: hot sun during the day, and freezing temp. at night. My house has 22 windows, most face southern exposure. It gets above 70 degrees during the day with sunshine, then dips to low 50's at night. That's hard on plants.
2) Roses also die due to dryness in my zone 5a. The root balls, if buried in deep in wet soil outside, won't dry out. The root balls, if covered in a dark garage, and watered once a month, won't dry out.
3) Indoor plants: You have a HOT basement ? If there's a window, roses can keep growing, but there are many drawbacks: too dry, and you'll get spidermites. Too wet, or misting with sprayers, and you'll get black spots. I'm not sure if it's worth it. I kept herbs in a basement (with a window) and I'll never do that again. White flies, black canker from over-watering, not worth it.
I agree with Seil that keeping them dormant (dark & cool) at a stable temp. is best. Freezing and thawing is hard on the roots. See link below for Bluegirl's excellent tip on digging a pit to shelter rootings in Texas fall weather.
Here is a link that might be useful: Hot beds for fall rooting by Bluegirl

It may be too late for this information.
I would dig a hole and put them into the ground for the winter. I do this with any new roses I may have gotten in the fall. They will be just as green as the day you put them in!
Mark the place where they are so you remember!

2001 Mitsubishi Eclipse Spyder Review
Mitsubishi Eclipse Spyder — A great car to drive, it picks up and goes with the best of them. Sticks to the ground through turns and handles like a pro... as long as there is no water on the roads. Should it be raining be careful. It looks sleek and is definatly a car that you get noticed in, especially with the top down. Unfortunatly the trunk and back seat are both small, because it's a convertable. Also this car does stick in 2nd a little long but shifts strong once it does. An overall awsome ride.

looks good
poor pick-up
Overall Amazing. — The acceleration could be better. The front bumper needs to be repaired. The exterior is amazing and the interior is all black leather. The gas milage is decent for a sports car. Maintenance wise, not too bad. Fun to drive!
Primary Use: Sport/fun (spirited driving, track racing, off-roading, etc.)

How quickly it can accelerate...
The minimal back seat
I Love My Car! — My car handles really well. The gas is very sensitive and the brakes work well. The drivers side window rattles sometimes... I think I might need to get the seals redone... I love the way my car looks, it is soo cool. It gets pretty good gas mileage, I drive from Tucson to 29 Palms on just over a tank of gas... The only real problem I have is that I always want to go faster...
Primary Use: Family transportation

Gets 30 mpg, handles great on the curves, fun car to drive.
Motor shot, over heated. Very low to the ground.
Fun, Cheap Car. Easy To Handle. — Car is fun to drive, drop the top and let the wind blow! Very cheap to operate and very good at speeds for a 4 cylinder. Lots of new custom parts including head lights, tail and brake lights. New rotors and brake pads, radiator, timing belt, but didn't replace the thermostat, that apparently stuck.
Primary Use: Sport/fun (spirited driving, track racing, off-roading, etc.)

2001 Mitsubishi Eclipse Spyder GT Spyder Review
Great style (looks). Leather seats, six disc CD changer, the ability to feel like a Nascar drive=amazing. Handling is good
Small backseats (its like the backseat doesnt even exist unless your friend or family is five years old or less than 100 pounds). Cargo room, loud wind/outside noises on interstate.
Great Car For Me At Least... — Overall, I love this car. It was my first car and the only one I have ever had. In all the years I have had her (yes I have named her, Foxy) I have never had to take her to get any repairs, except for replacing the convertible top (only after almost ten years of use though) and I recently just replaced the transmission. Other than that she has been a great car for me. I absolutely love her. For me, as I have no kids and relatively no need for mass amounts of space, the car was a great fit. Although the cargo space is small, I was still able to commute back and forth from college and the car still had enough room for small luggage bags and a dog crate. I would suggests this car for those that like speed, great looks and those who dont need a family car.

2001 Mitsubishi Eclipse Spyder GS Spyder Review
sleek and Sporty looking, manual trans shifts smoothly, great on gas, almost never needs repair if maintained well, handles great rides smooth, spacious interior, convertible top motor never fails, top seals well all the time
tiny trunk space, headlights oxidize and need refinishing about every 3 years.-get glass!
My Cute Little Spyder — Great car, taught MYSELF how to drive manual alone with this car, it THAT smooth of a shift. Get up and go is great for a "4 banger " engine. Turns on a dime and will stop on one as well.
Primary Use: Commuting to work

Love how easy it is to put the top up/down, can b done at a red light! Also love the slapstick feature. Car handles exceptionally well!
Definitely NOT a family car, also very little trunk space.
Fun, Great Lil Car! — I love how the car looks and handles, how easy it is to raise/lower the top, and the slapstick. I don't care for having to use the most expensive gas, or how small the trunk is, but overall, it's a great lil car, and I love it!
Primary Use: Sport/fun (spirited driving, track racing, off-roading, etc.)

2001 Mitsubishi Eclipse Spyder GT Spyder Review
I love the manual transmission and the drop top. I also like the power and the sound i get when i put my foot down.
Because of the convertible, I cant take my car to any tracks like VIR or anything like that. Also the radio would be complex to upgrade PROPERLY.
Awesome, Fun, Fast Car That A College Student Can Afford. Please Don't Rice One Out ;'( — Hmm... well i love my car. I never thought that i would own a convertible, but then i got this baby!!!! The car is really fun to drive and the open air experience is awesome!!!! Mods and upgrades aren't expensive, but be careful on how many you get cuz that $$$ will build up quick!!!

styling, handling, fun to drive
gas mileage, transmission
2001 Mitsubishi Eclipse Spyder — Quick to accelerate at first but the transmission has problems shifting from second to third gear in automatic. Also the reverse solenoid fluid has had to be replaced twice in the past. Other than that the car drives nicely, the suspension can be a little tight for long trips etc but it is a fun car to drive. The only other complaint i would have is that there is little trunk space in the car but what else can you expect with a convertible?

Apple Vice President of Global Security John Theriault departs company following lost iPhone 4S investigation
A large number of Apple senior executives have left the company this year. And Apple's vice president of global security John Theriault is one of them. We've heard that the reason for his departure could be the lost iPhone 4S prototype, while the official reason is retirement.
In July, an Apple employee lost a prototype of the new iPhone at the Cava22 bar in San Francisco. Following the loss of the prototype device, Apple security personnel being escorted by San Francisco police visited a home to where the device had been traced. Apple security officials reportedly posed as police officers in their search of this prototype iPhone. Apple and the SFPD may face a lawsuit over the matter, as the resident claims that he was threatened by the police and was not informed that Apple's security officials were not actually officers.
Theriault, a former FBI agent and Pfizer vice president, joined Apple in 2007. Theriault was responsible for all of the Apple's security operations and led an anti-counterfeit team in 2008 in a fight against China's growing counterfeit product market.

iPhone 4S Users Complaining of Audio Issues: No Audio on Outgoing Calls, Echoes, Static
A number of complaints regarding problems with echo on the iPhone 4S when used with a headset, with calls is growing. Moreover, the problem seems to appear on different phone models and carriers.
When using the Apple hands free headset with the phone during a call, I get an echo problem. It does not occur immediately. It can very from 30 seconds into a call and as far up to 9 mins in before it begins the annoying echo. If I unplug the headset it goes away but will return when I plug the headset back in. I have tried 3 brand new iphone 4s headsets with the same problems. So far I have tried rebooting, and also restored phone back to factory original settings as a new phone and still no resolution. I have been told by the other person on the line a screech sound is made then the echo begins.
Other issue that affects both incoming and outgoing calls is static on iPhone 4S call. The issue also occurs on multiple handsets as users exchanged devices at Apple retail stores in attempts to address the problem
The third problem involves users experiencing no audio on a subset of outgoing phone calls.
Picked up a Verizon iPhone 4S - 32GB and on about 1 in 10 calls I get no outbound audio when dialing. Call shows the timer counting as if the call is progressing but absolutely no ring back and cannot hear the party on the other end when they answer.

Steve Jobs' Biography Easily Tops Best Seller Lists in Debut Week
The Bookseller reports that Steve Jobs' authorized biography by Walter Isaacson easily became the most popular book in the States and United Kingdom during its first week of availability. For example, in the United States the book sold 379,000 copies.
Despite being on sale for just six days in the US, Steve Jobs: The Exclusive Biography is already the 18th bestselling book of the year. It sits one place ahead of John Grisham's The Confession (Dell) and one place behind Rick Riordan's The Son of Neptune (Hyperion) in the year-to-date BookScan US bestseller list.
As we reported, Amazon had previously announced that the book was poised to become the best-selling book of 2011 despite a release late in the year. And we will probably be able to watch a film adaptation of the autobiography soon, because Sony Pictures has already acquired the movie rights to the book.
CEO Tim Cook looks to mold a more streamlined Apple
Two months has already gone since the moment when Tim Cook was appointed Apple's CEO. The Wall Street Journal decided to take a look at his management strategy and found out some differences between his style and that of Steve Jobs.
In recent weeks, Mr. Cook has tended to administrative matters that never interested Mr. Jobs, such as promotions and corporate reporting structures, according to people familiar with the matter. The new chief executive, 50 years old, has also been more communicative with employees than his predecessor, sending a variety of company-wide emails while addressing Apple employees as "Team," people close to the company said.
Cook made significant changes in Apple's education division. As a result the division was divided into marketing and sales divisions and then reintegrated with the company's broader arms focused on those aspects of the business. Another corporate-level change is recently-announced charitable matching program that calls for Apple to match employee donations up to $10,000 per year, a change from the Jobs who was reportedly against giving money away. Cook seems to recognize quickly expertise and achievements of his employees, and ready to promote them, such as with the promotion of Eddy Cue.

South Korea repeals ban on iOS games ahead of iPhone 4S launch
The Next Web reported that South Korea had removed a ban blocking App Store games a week before the iPhone 4S launch. Korea opened up the local App Store earlier today. The Store had been closed for about two years. Of course, such ban cannot but affect Korean game developers. The selection of available games in the Korean App Store is limited for now, but it is expected to improve quickly.
The iPhone 4S is believed to face with tough competition in the region from the local giant Samsung, especially from the latest Galaxy Nexus. But Apple will obviously achieve success, predicting huge demand for their newest smartphone. Moreover, worldwide sales of the iPhone 4S are breaking all records. In the first three days of availability Apple sold four million units.
Nevertheless, Samsung intends to target Apple with new patent suits after iPhone 4S launch in Korea, even despite the fact that all their previous attempts were unsuccessful.

Gate valve or ball valve for water lines
I was wondering which is a better valve to use for house water lines. It seems everytime i shut off a gate valve to work on a water line either the valve is siezed, wont close all the way, or breaks inside and can't reopen all the way. Is a gate valve or a ball valve most likely to operate properly when not used for ten plus years?
I much prefer using ball valves in applications where they are to be in either the fully on or fully off position. In in-between positions, they tend to 'sing' (and I don't favor their taste in music).
I haven't tried to turn one off that hasn't been cycled in 'ten plus years', but I believe the results would be as bad as a multi-turn valve.
It seems alot of valves in a house don't ever get turned off until something starts to leak. Toilet valve, sink valve, water heater. All these never get used for years until there is a problem and then they don't work as stated above. When was the last time you turned off the water to your water heater. Most only when you replace it. I like the ball valves and am wondering if they will fair better when not used for many years.
Quote;"I much prefer using ball valves in applications where they are to be in either the fully on or fully off position. In in-between positions, they tend to 'sing' (and I don't favor their taste in music)."
Gate valves & ball valves are defined as "Full Bore Valves" and they should never be left partially closed. They are intended to be either fully open or fully closed at all times, no exceptions. Leaving a full bore valve partially closed can and will lead to a number of other problems on the line including an increased risk of pin-holes on the downstream side of the valve.
I prefer ball valves for 3 reasons.
1. A ball valve is constructed of a round ball with a hole drilled through it equal to the diameter of the pipe.
When the valve is open the interior of the valve is almost equal to the interior of the pipe so there is no associated turbulance or friction as the liquid flows through.
2.Generally the ball is suspended in a nylon or teflon bearing pad between the ball and the valve body that primarily serves as a seal but it also serves as a bearing to make turning the ball easier.
3. The handle should be attached so that it is in the same direction as the hole through the ball. When installed in that manner you have a good visual indicator of when the valve is open or closed. When the handle of the valve is parallel to the pipe, the valve is open, and when the handle is at right angle to the pipe, the valve is closed.
It is almost impossible to look at a gate valve and tell if its open or closed, unless or course, you elect to use OS&Y(outside stem & yoke) gate valves, but I doubt if you will ever see an OS&Y gate valve in a residential structure because they are typically only used on lines that are 3" and greater, and OS&Y valves are extremely expensive.
Don't mean to hijack this thread, but in the last post, lazypup stated that gate and ball valves should never be used in applications where they will be partially open. I have ball valves that are used as throttle valves in my geothermal open loop water lines and they are VERY noisy. What is the best kind of valve to use to replace them in this throttling application that will be as quiet as possible?
In commercial and marine settings, globe valves are preferred for the task of throttling flow because the opening is always proportional to the handle turns and the control is fairly precise. Gate valves offer pretty good control but tend to stick if left partially open. Butterfly and ball valves are worst for throttling; flow is not at all proportional to the handle travel. And they have the highest losses when partially open.
Due to two seized gate valves, I asked for ball valve substitution to water pipes servicing my washing machine. Concomitantly installed a needed main water pressure reducer. Now I note worse water hammering during running of my washing machine.
I recently read ball valves can worsen water hammer. Had I known that or been told, I would have stuck with gate valves. How does a homeowner know this stuff?
" Now I note worse water hammering during running of my washing machine. "
"How does a homeowner know this stuff?"
If you had fixed the water hammer instead of ignoring it you likely would have had no problem changing valves.
Washing machines use fast acting valves and area common source of water hammer.
A full bore valve will have less affect on attenuating the hammer from the washer valves then a globe valve might.
"If you had fixed the water hammer instead of ignoring it you likely would have had no problem changing valves."
Thanks brickeyee for your help. I discussed at length "water hammering" pre-install of both the new ball valves and the new washing machine (which have their own water valves) at length with the plumbing company. In fact, I had two new Sioux Chiefs arresters waiting for them (declined), and I insisted they check the whole house water pressure on their second visit, which was too high, so I purchased a water main pressure adjustor which they installed. But it was up to them to recommend the best valves off the main appropriate for water hammer minimizing for the washing machine and feeder pipes, yes? As advertised, very knowledgeable plumbing company professionals?
At this point, does anyone have a suggestion what to do? I guess pull the entire stackable machine out, check their new water valves (forget type), install new hammer arresters close to the machine, change back the new basement machine feeder pipe ball valves to globe valves? All to minimize damaging effect of worse water hammering on our pipes? I did crawl under the house crawl spaces to check each visible water pipe last week (took pics), particularly leading to the washing machine area. I found an area in the pipe where the metal points down, is thinned out and slightly oxidized. Is this a precursor to pin point leak that needs to be addressed? The pipes could be snugged up somehow to the beams: long, narrow, with old ties-could do better, maybe insulate too.
What do you think brickeyee and others? Sorry if O/T some OP. :( Still don't know which valve is best as you see.
" I had two new Sioux Chiefs arresters waiting for them (declined)"
Hire anther plumber next time.
Fast acting valves are a well known cause of water hammer.
The arrestors should have been installed as you requested.
Sioux Chief makes units on a threaded stub that go on the hose outlet and then the washing machine attaches to them.
Globe valves are most always used for balancing. You may just be over pumping the geothermal system. The problem is likely not the valve, but the valve may be to close to a 90, tee, etc. If it is the noise of the tumbling water then trying to get through the ball valve will create a lot of turbulence. I'd look for at least 10 diameters of the pipe away from the last fitting, at least.
In todays world, I would never install a gate vale

Please enter a valid mileage
By KBB.com Editors
KBB Expert Rating: 7.8
One more model year before a complete makeover to celebrate its 50th anniversary: That's the story for the 2014 Ford Mustang. Almost nothing changes this year for the original ponycar, that iconic symbol of affordable performance that blends modern efficiency with a strong 1960s-America vibe. New technology that includes track-specific software and mobile apps helps keep this muscle car modern, while four seats and a tolerable ride make it worthy of being a daily driver. The 2014 Mustang coupe and convertible are available in a wide range of forms, from a low-$20,000 V6 rear-drive sporty-car bargain to the $55,000-plus Shelby GT500 that packs a 662-horsepower monster motor. What a country.
Whether you want to relive your youth or are just looking for an affordable and livable sports car, the Mustang can deliver. Power-mongers who seek bragging rights to the world's most powerful production V8 engine can opt for the Shelby GT500.
If you want your sports car to have a more sophisticated nature – or an independent rear suspension – you might prefer a European or Asian contender. And if you regularly need to transport occupants in the back seat, there are many more accommodating alternatives.
out of 8Fuel Economy
out of 8Horsepower
In anticipation of a major redesign next year, commemorating the 50th anniversary of the iconic model, the 2014 Ford Mustang gets only some different paint colors and package contents. The Boss 302 model is dropped and the Shelby GT500's horsepower rating climbs to 662 (previously the temporary "over-rev" spec).
Driving Impressions Though it still uses an old-fashioned solid rear axle, the 2014 Mustang performs well on twisty roads and on open highways. As always, you don't have to spend a bundle...... on a Mustang to have fun. Even a base coupe with the 3.7-liter V6 gives you 305 horsepower to play with. The standard 6-speed manual transmission feels satisfying, and the hill-start control works well in preventing the car from rolling backward when you let off the brake and engage the clutch. A 6-speed automatic is optional except in the fire-breathing Shelby GT500. Road noise is plenty apparent on rougher roads. Steering effort and feel can be set to sport, comfort and standard modes, a nifty trick. Rear visibility in coupe models isn't great, but it's better than that of the Chevy Camaro.
This 4.2-inch color screen in premium models sits directly in front of the driver, between the retro-style circular speedometer and tachometer. The screen works in tandem with the Track Apps software to measure performance, and displays useful information including fuel economy.
The Shelby GT500's engine is a monster, the most powerful production V8 in the world, Ford says. Its 662 horsepower gives the car massive acceleration, of course, but also a menacing attitude even when flowing smoothly with traffic.
The 2014 Ford Mustang's cabin is cozy and comfortable for a performance car. Soft-touch surfaces lend a more premium feel, offsetting the impression of swaths of flat surfaces and plastic panels. Recaro racing-style seats are available, but even the standard front seats are nicely supportive. The two rear seats look appealing with their deep sculpting, but legroom and headroom are very tight for normal-size adults. Think of the back seats as handy stowage space. Controls are logically arrayed and easy to use. In the Premium and GT500 models, the Electronics Package adds an 8-inch color touch screen and navigation system.Exterior
Not looking a whole lot different from prior years is one of the things that keep the Ford Mustang iconic. For 2014, the Mustang gets some new paint colors. The front and rear treatments introduced last year, including high-intensity-discharge headlight and LED taillights, carry on. Along the sides, body-color rocker panels make the car look more cohesive. For those who like to let the outside in, base V6 and GT V8 models can be had as convertibles, and the coupe offers an optional glass roof. GT500 models have quad tailpipes and an aerodynamic front end.
A base 2014 Mustang comes equipped with air conditioning, power windows and doors, AM/FM/CD player with auxiliary inputs, selectable steering feel, 50/50 folding rear seats (in coupes), and remote keyless entry. Higher-trim models add a 4.2-inch color information screen, ambient lighting, Recaro cloth seats, a Shaker audio system and universal garage door opener. Convertible models feature a power-operated cloth roof.
Most extras for the 2014 Mustang are bundled in packages specific to trim. Among the options available are heated front seats, leather trim, voice-activated navigation, side scoops, and nifty side mirrors that project the image of a pony on the ground below. Performance packages can further crank up the Mustang's capability with Brembo brakes, stiffer suspension, leather Recaro seats, and bigger wheels with extra-grippy tires.
Modern technology makes power and fuel efficiency less mutually exclusive than they used to be. Mustangs with V6 engines put out 305 horsepower yet they're rated at 31 mpg highway. The 5.0-liter V8 in GT models makes 420 horsepower and has a 26 mpg highway rating. The King of the Hill Shelby GT500 with its supercharged 5.8-liter V8 makes an unbelievable 662 horsepower, yet still gets a pretty thrifty 15/24 EPA rating. The standard transmission for V6 and GT is a 6-speed manual, with a 6-speed automatic option. The Shelby GT500 uses a heavy-duty Tremec 6-speed manual. All Mustangs are rear-wheel drive and have a traction-control system.
3.7-liter V6
305 horsepower @ 6,500 rpm
280 lb-ft of torque @ 4,250 rpm
EPA city/highway fuel economy 19/29 mpg (manual), 19/31 mpg (automatic)
5.0-liter V8
420 horsepower @ 6,500 rpm
390 lb-ft of torque @ 4,250 rpm
EPA city/highway fuel economy 15/26 mpg (manual), 18/25 mpg (automatic)
5.8-liter supercharged V8
662 horsepower @ 6,500 rpm
631 lb-ft @ 4,250 rpm
EPA city/highway fuel economy: 15/24 mpg
The 2014 Ford Mustang coupe has a starting Manufacturer's Suggested Retail Price (MSRP) of just under $23,000. A GT model comes in at around $31,500 and a GT500 at $55,400. Convertible versions add about $5,000 to the price tag. At its base cost, the 2014 Mustang is priced about $1,200 below a base Chevy Camaro and roughly $3,500 below a base Dodge Challenger, making it the bargain of the trio and even undercutting a 4-cylinder Hyundai Genesis Coupe by more than $2,000. Be sure to check the KBB.com Fair Purchase Price to see what others in your area are paying for their 2014 Ford Mustangs. Resale value of the Mustang is expected to be slightly below that of the Camaro and Challenger.

"I was never a Mustang fan, but when I saw the 2005 body style I decided it was time to try one. I ordered a 2006 GT convertible in Screaming Yellow. You either love it or hate it (the color, that is). Now after 9 years and 158K miles I still look forward to driving it any chance I can. I am now considering selling it only because I want a 2015 GT convertible. I still have my original clutch and front brake pads. The only complaints I have are 4 batteries in 9 years (this month) and the original front struts were both leaking and shot within the first 9K miles. Ford wouldn't warranty the struts because I had 22" wheels on the car--purchased from my selling Ford dealer during my first week of ownership. The KYB strut that I put on at just over 9K miles are still on the car and still damping well."

Downton Abbey Portrays Reality of Interfaith RelationshipsBy Gerri Miller
Go inside Season 5 Episode 9 where the story line of Atticus and Rose's interfaith relationship comes to a head.Go To Pop Culture
Tag Archives: in-laws
No Defense for Lord Sinderby
In Downton Abbey, Lord Sinderby is the disapproving Jewish father who opposes his son's interfaith marriage to Rose. In Lord Sinderby's time, there were virtually no opportunities for interfaith families to engage in Jewish life, unless Rose were to convert.
Fortunately, we don't live in that time anymore. Today, many interfaith families can live active Jewish lives – and many do. The Reform and Reconstructionist movements consider children to be Jewish if there is one Jewish parent (regardless of whether it is the mother or father) and they are raised as Jews. They can be married by a rabbi and join a synagogue.
While Jane Eisner defends Lord Sinderby ("Defending Lord Sinderby," The Forward, March 1, 2015), I cannot. Too many Jewish professionals and communities still think that Jews are "throwing it all away", to paraphrase Lord Sinderby's words, when they marry someone who isn't Jewish. With a different approach, however, we can see interfaith relationships as an opportunity to invite more people in to the Jewish community. Rose, although naïve, is already eager to learn about the faith. And wouldn't it be beneficial to have Lord Grantham as an ally?
I do agree with Eisner on a few points, though. We do need to ask the difficult questions, not only of interfaith families, but also of Jewish institutions. If we want to ask the spouse who wasn't raised Jewish "to commit to doing her part to carry on a precious tradition," as Eisner says, then can't we ask Jewish institutions to welcome them and provide opportunities for learning and community?
What would happen if we shifted the focus from who someone marries to helping all families – interfaith and in-married – find their place in the Jewish community? I bet we would see a myriad of beautiful Jewish traditions being passed on to the next generation. That points to a bright Jewish future indeed.
Finding Common Ground When You Have Different Backgrounds
Often couples come from different backgrounds and it can be difficult to find common ground. But usually, if people have similar value systems, couples can work out compromises in their relationship. There are a variety of differences that affect a relationship. These differences make life interesting but sometimes differences cause conflict (and hopefully resolution). My family often says "That's why there are so many different flavors of ice cream!" Here is an overview about some of the types of differences couples may face.
Religious Differences: In my large family, each of us siblings observe our religion in a different way. Many people remark that they can't believe we were raised in the same house. As each of us has gotten married, we have evolved so that we have similar practices to our spouses. In fact, now that our society moves around so much more than people did 50 years ago, it makes sense that altering one's religious practices to suit our spouse is the norm, not the exception. Indeed, the proximity to one's parents may affect the level of practice. For example, if you are hundreds of miles from your parents but around the corner from your in-laws, your household's religious practices are likely to evolve toward the practice of your in-laws. Sharing holidays with extended family is going to change your practices as well.
I remember my brother saying that his decisions should not be affected by the decisions of his brother-in-law. The reality is that once the in-laws moved to the same city, celebrations were modified. He adjusted and the family holidays look a bit different. I think my brother's anticipation of what potential modifications might be was much scarier than the reality. I once told my kids I didn't just marry Daddy, I married his whole family: his mom, his sister, his dad. If you have any concerns about your future in-laws, think carefully. Especially if kids are in the picture, any differences are magnified.
Geographic Differences: Being from different parts of the country can be another area where a couple needs to find compromise. East Coast, West Coast, Northeast, Deep South—finding common ground can be challenging in this area as well. As a Southerner, I have lived in the Northeast most of my adult life. Yet, during a recent cold snap, I mentioned that I wished I lived in the South. A friend commented, "Shouldn't you be used to the cold by now?" I responded, "I guess the novelty has worn off." Celebrating Christmas or Hanukkah in a snowy climate when you are used to never wearing a coat can be an adjustment. Similar adjustments include city vs. suburbs vs. rural living. My husband loves the city and I would be quite happy living in a rural environment. Suburb is the obvious compromise but not all issues can be resolved as easily.
Nationality Differences: For one couple in my extended family, the parents were from Europe and the daughter was born in Israel. She moved to the U.S. when she was a child but always called herself an Israeli. Her parents always referred to themselves as European. She married an American but always made comments referring to her Israeli pride. I think that this difference was a point of contention for the woman and her husband. Attitudes, manners, celebrations were always an issue for them. Both partners were Jewish but the nationality differences were a struggle for them. Ultimately, the couple divorced for a variety of reasons but nationality differences definitely caused some of their disagreement.
Cultural Differences: Some families have a sit-down dinner every night. Other families never eat together because the parents are always working. Some families believe that there should be a stay-at-home parent while other families prefer a live-in caretaker. Differences of opinion regarding parochial school or public school or even boarding school can exist in the same family. Some issues such as school can be worked out with relative ease but other issues can be a huge hurdle in a relationship. Do both partners intend to work? Do you believe in daycare or nannies or neither? Differences in attitudes can rise up. If one parent stays home for a while, will there be resentment? If one parent travels for work, will there be resentment?
Financial Differences: Some people like to spend money, others like to save it. If one partner wants to travel to the Caribbean every winter but the financial situation does not allow for that, there should be some discussion. Does one partner want to eat out four nights a week at a sit-down restaurant? Do you agree on savings? Financial issues can be a major point of contention after several years of marriage. It is important to discuss what you and your partner expect regarding savings and debt. Don't be afraid to disagree, but do have these discussions.
While you are dating, "what if" scenarios are helpful (but not binding because circumstances always change). It is good to discuss these issues to assess whether you and your partner can compromise. As they say, "Vive La Différence!" but keep your eyes open. You should be thinking like a team. If you find that you are feeling "alone" in your thinking, it might be good to seek counseling. Entering a marriage with confidence is paramount.
A Hanukkah Giving Ritual Takes the Competition Out of The Season
Years ago, I struggled with how I was going to do Hanukkah in our home. Christmas was already set. We visit my partner's parents who aren't Jewish for the holiday season. I tell our kids, as many Jewish parents in interfaith relationships do, that we are helping their grandparents celebrate Christmas. It may sound a little weak but it is really true. Their grandparents would be sad to not have family around their tree, as would my partner. And our Jewish kids love getting a taste of Christmas even though they know it's not "our" holiday.
But what to do about Hanukkah? This still posed a problem. My kids come to expect presents for Christmas, and I didn't want them to receive too much at this time of year. Did they really need the eight nights of presents I grew up with if they were about to receive mounds of gifts a few weeks later? And what if the holidays overlapped? It would send a message of overabundance I try to temper all year long and would feel antithetical to the values I'm trying to instill.
I also didn't want to fall into the trap of pitting the two holidays against each other. When Hanukkah and Christmas compete, Hanukkah loses every time. It is a minor Jewish holiday only made grand here in the United States by its proximity to Christmas. I'm not a fan of lifting it up in importance to make a point. Instead, in our family, we expend that energy by celebrating the more important Jewish holidays and Shabbat year round.
So the question remained: What would I want my kids to associate with Hanukkah as they grow up?
The answer came to me one year when I was doing my end-of-year philanthropic donations. I thought about the proximity of Hanukkah and the symbol of gelt, and the larger societal messages about December as a time of giving. As I waded through the mail, I recalled the piles of leaflets on my kitchen table growing up and how much I learned from my parents teaching me about the organizations they support. The timing was perfect! I decided to make Hanukkah into a holiday of giving—not receiving. In the glow of the Hanukkah candles, I taught my kids that tzedakah comes from the Hebrew root meaning "justice" and that philanthropic giving is a way we can help bring justice to the world. At their ages, they loved the idea that life could be fairer.
I gathered all of the leaflets we received from organizations and asked the kids what they thought. Which communities would they want to support? What makes them upset as they look around their world, from natural disasters to homelessness to our treatment of the environment? We poked around online as they thought about people who had had a particularly rough year. I told them how much we had to give, and asked them to make the tough choices about how to divide it up. Do we give a lot to a few places and really make an impact? Or give a little to many organizations so they know we care about them? Each year as they grow in maturity, I give them new problems to solve. Now, we put coins in a tzedakah box throughout the year before lighting candles on Friday night and they know that this money will also go to the Hanukkah giving pot.
Their choices have evolved over time. The first time we did this, they were excited about Sesame Workshop because bright red Elmo was (wisely) featured on the organization's envelope. Next was their Jewish summer camp that suffered fire damage. Then we tackled the question of whether to give to local food banks or to hunger advocacy organizations trying to stamp out poverty from the top down. Would they rather support people in their neighborhood, in other regions of the country or the elsewhere in the world? The year DOMA was struck down, we discussed giving to Lambda Legal, an organization defending cases for the LGBT community. As they become more concerned about the environment, we have looked for organizations that address their concerns. This year, we will add to the list the importance of InterfaithFamily, helping families like ours navigate the holidays! (Yes, that was a not-so-subtle plug!) There is so much to do that it easily lasts eight nights.
Who knows what messages my kids will take away from the holiday season as they grow up? What will Christmas represent? What will they remember most about Hanukkah? I hope that by consciously highlighting tzedakah as a specific value, they will take the best from both of the December holidays that are part of their lives.

Breaking Bread with the In-Laws
Last Friday night, I watched as my kids lit Shabbat candles and said the prayers at our table with my in-laws standing by. My partner's parents are not Jewish, and I felt a deep appreciation for them in this moment. When we all met, none of us could have imagined this scene. Nearly two decades ago, I stayed at their home for the first time. My partner and I were graduate students on the East Coast and we headed west to see her folks at their ranch in central Oregon over break. Like many people, Jewish or not, they really aren't into religion at all. Here we were, a rabbinical student and a PhD candidate in religious studies. We pretty much ate, drank and breathed religion.
I wanted to be careful not to overwhelm them with Jewish talk or Jewish practice. That was tough because I was starting to observe Shabbat and other rituals for the first time. I chose carefully which ones I absolutely had to do. One of my new, favorite Shabbat rituals was baking challah. As Friday morning rolled around, it felt strange not to make it. I started to get the ingredients out, and the implications ran through my mind:
1) This kitchen is going to be really, really messy.
2) It would feel weird to me if we ate challah on Friday night without saying the prayer over it. But saying it will feel really weird too.
3) Oh no…it will feel weird to do the prayer over the bread without doing all three Shabbat blessings. Now it's a full ceremony and it's going to be awkward.
In the end, I did it anyway. The result? Wow, these people love challah. I know most people like it. What's not to like? My recipe includes eggs, flour and tons of sugar and butter which make it more like a Shabbat dessert. It's always a crowd pleaser. But I have never seen anyone so overtaken by it. Seeing how excited her parents were and knowing how worried I was about engaging in Jewish ritual in their house, my partner made sure they knew that getting to the challah meant that there would be Jewish prayers at their table. For people who really disagree with religion as a whole, don't believe in the God we are thanking in these prayers and have no context for the foreign language being spoken at their table, this could have been a huge deal.
It wasn't.
It's been almost two decades, and I'm still making challah for my in-laws. Now when we visit, our kids help bake and decorate. We do the entire Shabbat ceremony consisting of all three prayers: lighting candles, saying kiddush over wine and grape juice and the motsi over the challah, my partner's parents stand by, knowing that challah is coming.
I am greatly appreciative that my in-laws have been able to witness our family's rituals and other religious choices. Clearly, some of these rituals have been easier to stomach than others. My mother-in-law enjoys the challah far more than she did the bris (then again, I'm with her on that one). It's not easy when your kids choose a lifestyle so different from your own. In one sense, I credit the challah. It was one of the first moments when we came together around a Jewish custom, and unlike lots of other Jewish foods that are acquired tastes, challah was the one that could allow them to see into a completely new religious framework and even allow for it to happen at their family table. In a way, it's just bread. But "breaking bread" together is also the way people from many cultures have traditionally and symbolically expressed that they can cross a difficult boundary. So maybe it's no accident that this openness was instigated by a couple of loaves of home-baked bread. But at a deeper level, I credit my in-laws for demonstrating incredible openness to new ideas and most of all, for embracing us. That, and helping me clean the kitchen.

Seth Meyers is Jew-ish
Seth Meyers reveals that…he's not Jewish! Despite what "every single Jewish person thinks," he is not Jewish (though he does have a Jewish grandfather).
In this clip from Late Night with Seth Meyers, he talks about getting married to his now wife Alexi, who is Jewish, under a chuppah, and about his in-laws who consider him "Jewish enough." Meyers may have thought he was merely being funny, but little did he know he was becoming the poster celebrity for InterfaithFamily!
How to Tell Your Parents…
…that you are involved with someone of another religion (race, culture or gender)
By Wendy Armon and Joycellen Young Auritt Ph.D.
You have met someone very special and are involved in a relationship…. You want to share your excitement with your family but you are afraid that they won't approve of the person you are dating. How do you tell your parents? Here are a few suggestions of what to do and what not to do.
Suggestions of what you should do…
1) Tell them you are happy. Most parents really want to make sure that their adult child is happy and on a path where someone will love them unconditionally. Reassure your parents that you have thought about your choice and you are happy about your decisions.
2) Acknowledge your fears about your parents' reaction out loud. Sometimes when kids are little, parents may say, "I want you to marry someone who is XYZ." Your parents may no longer feel that way about who you marry and may be able to assuage your anxiety early in the conversation. We all change our minds and evolve—maybe your parents did too.
3) Make clear to your parents where you are in the relationship. If you and your partner are talking marriage, let your parents know. Living together? Dating seriously? If you are in love, tell them. This is a time for you to tell your parents all of the fabulous qualities about your partner. If there are similarities between your partner and one of your parents, point that out.
4) If your parents are concerned about your choice of partner, gently remind them that your choice is not a rejection of them—you just fell in love! Remind your parents that you love them and appreciate all that they have done. Many parents take the decision that you have chosen someone from a different religion as a rejection of their religion or even a rejection of them. Let them know how much you appreciate various aspects of your upbringing.
5) Be sensitive. Parents may be a little shocked that you are falling in love with someone and moving forward in your life. Now that you are an adult, they may feel shocked that your life is moving quickly. Sometimes that shock may manifest itself in a focus on religious differences. For some parents the prospect of a wedding or a new generation may make a parent aware of their mortality and the future of aging. Even though you feel a little vulnerable, remember your parents have feelings too.
Suggestions of what not to do…
1) Don't trap your parents. If your parents meet your special person but you don't tell them how important the person is in your life, there is a chance that your parents may make insensitive comments about the person like: "She'd be great if only she were…" Let your parents know your feelings and who is important to you. This is not the time to be deceptive or coy.
2) Don't ask a question if you are not prepared to accept an honest answer. If you ask for their input but don't really want to hear anything negative, don't ask. Everyone will remember any negative comments for a long time. Questions like, "do you think he is too selfish?" might get the answer you don't want to hear.
3) Don't Rush. If your parents are having a hard time adjusting to your announcement, slow down a little in your discussions with your parents. It is wise to give your parents a chance to digest your news.
Adjusting to the future may take time. Many people have a vision for the future and a vision that their children will make certain choices. If the future looks different than they anticipated, they will likely need an adjustment period to consider what is going on and then hopefully accept your choices. Parents may envision all kinds of things about where their kids will live, what they will do with their grandchildren, how the holidays will be celebrated… We all need to adjust when life isn't how we imagined. Be patient.
Reality Check. Not all parents can accept whom you have chosen. Sometimes, your parents may have realistic concerns. Your parents may have legitimate views regarding compatibility issues that truly matter in the long run. It may take some time for your parents to become comfortable with the new reality.

Controlling IP Spoofing Based DDoS Attacks Through Inter-Domain Packet Filters
Free registration required
Executive Summary
The Distributed Denial of Services (DDoS) attack is a serious threat to the legitimate use of the Internet. Prevention mechanisms are thwarted by the ability of attackers to forge, or spoof, the source addresses in IP packets. By employing IP spoofing, attackers can evade detection and put a substantial burden on the destination network for policing attack packets. In this paper the authors propose an Inter-Domain Packet Filter (IDPF) architecture that can mitigate the level of IP spoofing on the Internet. IDPFs are constructed from the information implicit in BGP route updates and are deployed in network border routers.
