powerful when all is running well
Just had two motor mounts replaced...not inexpensive
Sweety — I like the power this little car has, not at all bad for a 2002 with 200,000 plus miles on her. The little body style is nice and sporty to me. I am not too fond of the fact I keep having to replace things on it. However, I do realize that is all part of buying used or owning period. Woe is me, lol. If times were better I would find more pleasure in replacing parts and tricking my lil ride out.

2002 Mitsubishi Lancer ES Review
Safe to drive
Nothing really
Buy It — One of my dream car is the Lancer Evolution IX. I can't afford it so I bought its little brother which is the Lancer ES. I put a lot of effort on it and now it looks awesome. The only I don't like about my car is that I bought an automatic. If you're gonna buy the manual, it's a lot more fun to drive.

i like my car coz its a rwd and olds school
the only thing with my car are, parts that are hard to find.
Japanese Collectible — performance wise is quite ok for a daily driver. needs a little body work because of its age. but over all, it rides well and fun to drive.it could keep up with b16 hondas.but gas mileage will decrease if youd put the pedal to the metal..

Runs well, cheap maintenance costs, great tuner car to customize.
Too slow, low horse power and torque.
Overall Perfect First Car And Family Car. — I loved the fact that there is so much customization parts for this car also the handling is great, mpg is great. Just want a new car for a new look. But I would recommend this car to anybody. Especially if they like tuners.

Manual, looks, affordability
Few dents, lots of stone chips, lots of kms.
My First Car — First car. It is actually a '97 model but car iq wouldn't let me choose. For a 1.5l engine it seems to go nicely. Only $3500 to buy. Very cheap to run. Good fun to drive because of manual. Overall a very nice first car. No real mods planned or intended.

2002 Mitsubishi Lancer LS Review
Power everything, attractive interior, peppy
Thin paint, noisy AC compressor
Civic And Corolla Owners Wasted Their Money — I love getting Japanese quality for Korean prices. The Lancer gets passed up as an "off-brand" Japanese car, making used-car prices appealingly low. The thing's a blast to drive, even in automatic trim. It's peppy (for a small car) and relatively quiet. Cost of ownership is very low. Aside from regular oil /fluid changes and a timing belt swap at 120k, the car has not required any service.

Ted Sorenson is best known as the writer who filled the speeches of John F. Kennedy with wit, humor, and elegance. Today, Sorenson is 81 and bothered by failing eyesight. But he shows penetrating vision in a speech delivered last week at his alma mater, the University of Nebraska Law School in Lincoln. Addressing a class of newly minted lawyers, Sorenson raised a loud note of concern about what has occurred to the legal profession in the last eight years. In particular, his subject is the lawyers who betrayed their calling by implementing the Bush Administration's torture policies. The Lincoln Journal-Star reports his remarks:
"Most of you as new lawyers will soon find it easy to make a buck but find it hard to make a difference. Yes, torture gets results. It has resulted in easier, swifter, more successful recruitment for terrorist organizations among the millions of young Islamic fanatics who are willing to use the one weapon against which an open society such as ours has no sure defense — suicide bombing. It also resulted in a sharp decline in America's standing among allies who might otherwise have provided intelligence and other forms of help. It has cost us the respect of other countries that we enjoyed, which protected us against attacks from abroad."
"Intellectually and morally dishonest lawyers (in the Department of Justice) disgraced not only their country but their profession. In a country based on the rule of law, in which no man is above the law, whatever his rank or title, no man can undertake, authorize or immunize unlawful conduct. Our current wonderful president cannot promise the CIA practitioners of torture that they will not be prosecuted. With all those now exposed of complicity in torture pointing fingers of blame at each other, it is clear that the guilty include political ideologues, cowardly bureaucrats, and inexperienced psychologists, all of whom plead ignorance of the law. But what about the lawyers?"

DEFINITION of 'Deferred Credit'
Income that is received by a business but not immediately reported as income. Typically, this is done on income that is not fully earned and, consequently, has yet to be matched with a related expense. Such items include consulting fees, subscription fees and any other revenue stream that is intricately tied to future promises. For example, a book club might defer income from a two-year membership plan until all the costs of procurement and shipping are assessed. Also known as deferred revenue or deferred income.
INVESTOPEDIA EXPLAINS 'Deferred Credit'
Deferred credit is used largely for bookkeeping purposes and as a means to even out, or "smooth" financial records and give a more accurate picture of business activities. Using the previous example of a book club, if all membership or subscriptions fees just happened to come in during the first quarter and all products were shipped out in the second, the quarter-to-quarter income statement would obviously be skewed.

Celebrating 165th Year of Communist Manifesto
Expand Messages
Widely recognized as world's one of the most influential political manuscript, The Communist Manifesto was published today on 21st February exactly 165 years! 165 years down the line, the manifesto continues to inspire scores of people across the world! To commemorate the event we are reproducing here an Introduction to the Manifesto written by the historian Eric Hobsbawm in 2012. We take this opportunity to also pay homage to this great Marxist radical. While we may not agree with everything that Hobsbawm says about the Manifesto, we can only be in total agreement with him when he proclaims "what might in 1848 have struck an uncommitted reader as revolutionary rhetoric – or, at best, as plausible prediction – can now be read as a concise characterization of capitalism at the end of the twentieth century. Of what other document of the 1840s can this be said?"--

Spoiler plugin?
Just curious – is anyone working on such a thing? I had a terrific plugin for my WP comments section, but now that I've migrated everyone to bbPress and shut comments down, we're in a bit of a bind. I'd gladly have them just color tag their text, but I'm not sure…
Could I create a custom tag that worked like 'blockquote' with its own CSS info?

A short range, low power, radio wave transmitter which acts as a miner locator. The transmitter is incorporated with the cap lamp circuitry for the miner. It utilizes the same self-contained power source and its wire connection thereto acts as the transmitter's antenna. No action on the miner's part is necessary in order to begin the transmission which may be on a specific identifying frequency for each miner. An electronic crowbar circuit may be used to conserve power for the transmitter by cutting off power to the cap lamp should the voltage across the self-contained power source fall below a preset level. This enables the transmitter to function for several days by reducing the load on the power source.
1. A personal locator transmitter in combination with a miner's cap lamp comprising:
a common self-contained portable power source means to provide electrical power to both the transmitter and the miner's cap lamp, said cap lamp being located in a miner's cap adapted to be worn on the head of a miner, said power source means and said transmitter being located in a housing spaced from the miner's cap and being adapted to be secured to the body of a miner;
said cap lamp being electrically connected to said power source means by a wire which provides power to the lamp and also functions as a transmitting antenna for the transmitter; and
said transmitter being a portable lower power transmitter having an oscillator and modulator circuit to output a high fixed frequency radio wave signal from said wire antenna.
2. The combination of claim 1 wherein said transmitter also comprises an electronic crowbar circuit to cut off electrical power to the cap lamp should the power output from the power source means fall below some preestablished level, said power available to the transmitted being increased as a result thereof.
3. The combination of claim 1 wherein said transmitter includes a silicon controlled rectified switch and diode chain for electrically cutting off power to said cap lamp should the power from the power source means fall below a preselected level; said power available to the transmitter being increased as a result thereof.
4. The combination of claim 1 also including timing circuitry to amplitude modulate the radio signal from the transmitter.
The invention disclosed herein is a short range transmitter which allows miners to be individually located.
Underground transmitters for locating trapped miners are known in the art. In many cases, these transmitters are with the miners and underground to transmit signals to receivers located on the surface. One example of such a system can be found in U.S. Pat. No. 4,090,135 (A. J. Farstad et al) wherein short bursts of frequency shift keying digit data with a prior receiver alert code are both transmitted and received. In contrast to the typical prior art transmitter, we have designed and developed a low power transmitter which is powered by and incorporated into the miner's cap lamp battery. The wire from the miner's battery serves the dual function of a power conduit for the lamp and an antenna for the transmitter. Selective use of multiple or different transmitted frequencies allow differentiation to take place to locate trapped miners. When miners are trapped after a mine disaster, our invention has several distinct advantages over the prior art transmitters. First, due to its simple and compact design employing the lamp's power source and wire conduit antenna, it is much more likely to be with the miner. It provides a precise location for the miner by transmitting a personal short range beacon. Also, no action on the miner's part--who may be dead, severely injured, etc.--is necessary to initiate the transmission of the signal. Other advantages will also be very apparent after considering the following descriptive matter.
A low power transmitter which is incorporated into a miner's cap lamp and powered by the same battery. Electronic circuitry having a low power oscillator and modulation circuit continuously transmits a signal via the miner's battery/lamp line--which also acts as an antenna--to provide a homing beacon. When the power of the battery falls below a preset level, the current to the lamp is shut off to allow the transmitter to operate for a longer time.
The FIGURE illustrates the preferred embodiment of the circuitry for our invention.
A typical electrical circuit which constitutes the preferred embodiment of the transmitter of our invention is shown in the FIGURE. Before, discussing its details and operation, it should be clear that certain functions and elements of our invention are critical while others are variable and optional. What features and elements our invention must have to operate and perform as we envision are: a low power source which is the same as that used to provide power to the miner's lamp; a transmitting antenna which is coextensive with the line providing power to the miner's lamp; and an oscillator and modulator circuit to transmit, via the line antenna, a modulated radio frequency signal. The exact details of the circuitry and optional features of the circuitry may vary.
Our short range transmitter or miner locator is incorporated into the same housing as that of the miner's cap lamp battery. In this way it is compact in design, easy to carry, and there is very little likelihood it will be forgotten by a miner during a typical work day. Normally, the battery's housing is clipped to the miner's belt with an electrical line extending therefrom to the miner's cap and lamp. This same line or lamp cord acts as the antenna and is depicted and labelled as such in the FIGURE.
Also shown in the preferred embodiment FIGURE is the crystal controlled oscillator (FET Q1) and associated components made up of resistor R6, piezoelectric crystal X1, capacitor C4, inductor L1, and a source follower amplifier (FET Q2). Typically the oscillator would be operating at a frequency near 27 megahertz (MHz) to provide a high frequency signal. The signal from the oscillator is amplitude modulated by the 556 timer (ICI 556) which consists of a series of audio pulses or beeps. The actual frequency of the tone is determined by the values of the of the resistors R3 and R4 and the capacitor C2. The pulse repetition rate (prf) is determined by the values of the resistors R1 and R2 and the capacitor C1. For example, a more or less typical prf could be 4 or 5 pulses per second. The two parallel resonant circuits formed by inductances L2 /L3 and capacitor C8 /C9, respectively, electronically isolate the antenna at radio frequencies.
The circuit components made up of transistor Q3 silicon controlled rectifier SCR 1, resistors R9 and R8, fuse F1, and the diode chain D1 to D7 are an electronic crowbar. This crowbar functions, inter alia, to conserve the battery power for operating the transmitter when the cap lamp battery is near the end of its useful life. Assuming that, as is the case in our preferred embodiment, the battery is rated at 4.5 volts (v). When, for example, the terminal voltage across transistor Q3 is above 3.5 volts, the transistor is saturated and its collector voltage will be near zero. In such a case when the voltage falls below 3.5 volts, the transistor will cut off causing its collector voltage to rise. This event causes SCR 1 to fire and the fuse F1 to blow which thereby cuts current to the lamp while still powering the transmitter. With the load on the cap lamp removed, the battery voltage supplied to the new load will rise to approximately 4 volts. There is then sufficient capacity remaining within the battery to power the transmitter for several days. If it is desired to change the aforesaid triggering function from the 3.5 volt level, then the number of diodes in the diode chain D1 -D7 can be changed. The preselected triggering level is selected by taking a value which corresponds to the end of the useful life for the cap lamp. In this way, only a few minutes of cap lamp light are traded off against several days of homing signal transmissions.
We anticipate that each miner will carry a personal locator transmitter embodying our invention. Following a mine disaster, rescue personnel would use a receiver with a conventional directional antenna, such as a loop antenna, to locate miners trapped behind roof falls or sealed off areas or to find their bodies under roof falls. Two or more frequencies could be used. One would be a standard frequency used by all workers and the other an alternate frequency carried by the rescue team. This multiple frequency characteristic would prevent interference occurring from the rescue personnel's own units. Depending on the make up of the earth, its moisture content, and other variable, each transmitter should be able to send a homing signal up to 500 feet in all directions.
Variations for the disclosed electronic circuitry are possible. For example, one or more reverse biased zener diodes can be used in place of the diode chain D1 -D7 ; or a programmable shift register could be inserted between pins A and B or the ICI to allow unique locating codes for each transmitter. None of these or other possible changes should be used to change the scope and spirit of our invention which is to be limited only by the claims which follow.

Dating online might be quite the job. Because of so many things to think about and so
dating tips
many decisions to make, it offers a platform to satisfy new people and would be most efficient knowing how to make the very best from the experience. Here are a few of the most popular tips, tried and tested which might just work for you.
Tip 1-Be certain of what you want: Make sure you know exactly what you're getting into when you enroll in an on line dating site. Be clear with the type of person you're looking out for thus it's easier to focus while searching. You might like to pen them down just to make sure.
Tip 2-Put up a truthful profile: Be certain to post a picture you have that was taken recently and never the one with your best looking angle, Making you seem like someone you're not. Make sure you complete appropriate details and try being specific and unique inside your profile. Everyone loves heading out and hearing music, so let them know new things.
Tip 3-Be selective-make sure even when you get a lot of potential suitors you choose only the ones that have appealed the most but for the others it is a simple easy no.
Tip 4-Keep your emails brief- You don't want to yap on about anything and everything you'd probably wish to save that for talking personally. Provide two paragraphs but definitely not in addition to that.
Tip 5-Avoid googling a possible suitor- You won't want to do a big research and miss the surprises regarding your suitor whenever you meet personally. It's more fun when you are getting to know through a conversation, you also risk making presumptions about things you didn't have to know.
Tip 6- Make sure you meet in public- Have a minumum of one person know where you are in the event of any emergency, Be secure.
Tip 7-don't go ahead and take rejection seriously- everybody's not everyone's type, sometimes it isn't even concerning the suitor it could be another thing not working out.
Tip 8-Try different sites-Trying different sites can very well make you feel much better if you are discouraged therefore it is always good to sign up on new sites there are plenty of new individuals to meet.
There's lots of people to meet out there and you will just know how to find someone interesting using these tips.

Christchurch Earthquake 2011
A swarm of earthquakes, including a magnitude 6.0 and two greater than magnitude 5.0, have hit Christchurch, toppling already damaged buildings, injuring residents and disrupting power, phone services and retailers.
The magnitude-6.0 quake, which struck at 3.18pm, was six kilometres deep and centred 10km north of Lyttelton, Geonet said.
It was larger than the magnitude-5.8 tremor that shook the city at 1.58pm, causing widespread panic and damage.
A 5.3 quake hit at 2.06pm. It struck 20km east of Belfast at a depth of 10km.
Did you feel the quake? Email your news, video and photos to us at firstname.lastname@example.com.
Christchurch deputy mayor Ngaire Button said a state of emergency was not planned.
The city council urged people to take care of their families and stay home if possible.
Further damage had been seen by a helicopter crew of the western wall of the Christ Church Cathedral, along with some other buildings in the central city.

Owners of commercial buildings were asked to check their buildings before staff were allowed to return.
Civil Defence teams would doorknock homes in the east tonight and would have identification, Button said.
The Christ Church Cathedral Rose Window had completely collapsed and more cathedral damage was feared, Dean Peter Beck said.
"We don't know the rest of the damage. It was already very seriously damaged and it will be further damaged again," he said.
Beck said the new quakes were a "huge emotional shock".
"We were starting to get traction again and now it feels like June 13 again," he said.
The Christchurch Arts Centre suffered minor damage.
Centre director Ken Franklin said a few gables had collapsed, but there was no "substantial damage that was obvious".
A St John spokesman said ambulance communications had received up to 150 111 emergency calls since the first quake.
Staff had assessed and treated about 60 patients with minor quake-related injuries or issues, he said.
A police spokesman said Windsor House Rest Home residents in New Brighton were reported to be trapped on the second floor, but were being evacuated by the Fire Service.
The Coastguard rescued four people trapped at Boulder Bay near Godley Head.
One person was reported to have been injured at the Eastgate Shopping Centre and had been taken to Christchurch Hospital, the police spokesman said.
A woman at the Northlands Shopping Centre fell and injured her stomach, but did not require medical treatment.
There were significant rockfalls at Redcliffs, and a stopbank in New Brighton Rd collapsed.
A partly demolished building on the corner of Barbadoes and Kilmore streets has fallen, and a vacant house at 81 Aynsley Tce collapsed.
A red-stickered house in Oram Ave, New Brighton, also collapsed.
Significant flooding and liquefaction has hit the eastern suburbs, including Avonside, Bexley, Retreat Rd and Bower Ave.
Part of a Scarborough rockface collapsed, but the rock was held by shipping containers at the bottom of the cliff.
Police say there is no tsunami threat and no reports of serious or widespread damage or injury.
Damage has been reported to the Work and Income building in New Brighton, with all staff safely evacuated.
A stopbank in Kaiapoi is damaged and the India Blue restaurant in Sumner is damaged and has been cordoned off.
A building on the corner of Charles St and William St in Kaiapoi is at risk of collapse.
Police are urging people to stay away from hill suburbs because of risk of rockfalls.
Police said all available units had been dispatched across the city to provide reassurance and check on safety and damage, the spokesman said.
The Lyttelton tunnel is open.
Civil Defence's national crisis management centre in Wellington has been activated.
Canterbury Earthquake Recovery Authority (Cera) chief executive Roger Sutton said he had flown around the city and saw liquefaction similar to the September quake.
Christchurch International Airport chief executive Jim Boult said flights would restart at 6pm.
The airport was closed for engineering checks after the first quake. Some flights were diverted and cancelled.
Orion chief executive Rob Jamieson said this evening that power was now back on in rural areas, but about 19,000 customers were still without power in the eastern suburbs.
They hoped most of the outages were caused by "tripping" and not cable damage, he said.
Phone networks are down and Telecom has asked residents to keep mobile calls for emergency use where possible, and use text messages.

All council buildings have been closed until they can be assessed as safe to occupy.
Christchurch Mayor Bob Parker, who was holidaying in Taupo, was trying to get back to the city.
He said the quake was another setback physically and psychologically.
"Coming almost on Christmas Eve, with all the shops shutting, malls evacuated and airports closed, and people sitting around in tears ... you just can't underestimate the ongoing stress this has created for so many people,'' he told Television One.
"It's just going to be one hell of a day and my heart just breaks really to think so many people have already been so much.''
Burwood Hospital is operating on emergency power and the birthing unit at Burwood Hospital has been temporarily relocated. Mothers who go into labour and had planned on giving birth at Burwood are asked to attend Christchurch Women's Hospital instead.
Christchurch City Council have reported that some sewage discharge to the Heathcote estuary has occurred. Residents are advised to avoid contact with the estuary until at least 4pm on Sunday, providing there are no further aftershocks.

The Activist Spotlight
CommonWealth REIT
Business: Real-estate investment trust
Stock-Market Value: $1.8 billion ($21.51/share)
Investor's Avg. Cost: $16.99/share
What's Happening: Corvex Management and Related Cos. offered $27 per share for CommonWealth and demanded it cease its equity offering, or the investor group would seek to replace the board. CommonWealth rejected the offer and continued with its equity offering.
Key Numbers:
$40: Per-share price Corvex/Related ascribes to the company's assets prior to the equity offering.
0.8%: Share of CWH common stock that is owned by RMR, its external manager.
$209 million: management fees CWH paid RMR over past three years.
$647 million: decline in CWH's market capitalization over that time.
Behind the Scenes: Corvex, founded in 2011 by former Icahn lieutenant Keith Meister, is fast becoming a top activist fund. Related is a top U.S. real-estate firm. Together, they believe CommonWealth is severely undervalued because of its external management structure, related transactions, and loss of confidence by investors. This structure incentivizes management to increase assets at any cost, whereas an internal structure would align management incentives with shareholder value. Moreover, there is a significant overlap of board members across RMR entities, and there were over $2 billion worth of CWH-related party transactions in the past five years. Written consent to replace the board would require a two-thirds shareholder vote, but this is a situation where that is doable. Three of the four trustees who have previously stood for election received withhold votes of 46.5%, 34.9%, and 29% in their last elections.

Dove Release
Our white doves are the symbol of Love, Peace and Hope.
They pair for life, and at the end of each day
They return to the same home for the night.
As Bride and Groom release these doves,
We ask you, their family and friends,
To witness this very symbolic gesture,
Which heralds the beginning of their new life together.
Bride and Groom we wish you love,
That, like the doves, continues to soar.
We wish you peace as you work together
To develop a home
And we join in your hope for a long and happy marriage.
Like a married couple, the doves are not obliged to be by each other's side for every hour of every day. In the evening, however, whether their day's journey has been together or apart, both doves return to the same home for the night.
Bride and Groom, as the doves fly they will carry our wishes for peace, love and hope for your future life together
For many centuries, the White Dove has been a symbol of Peace, Love and New Beginnings.
As a romantic gesture, the bride and groom are now going to release these two white pigeons that are meant to represent doves. They will fly upwards, maybe circle above us a few times, and then fly home together, as a pair. This symbolises our newly wed couple setting off on their journey in life together, in harmony.
Bride and Groom, we wish for you, that your life together would be long, rich and rewarding. May your marriage carry with it all the wonderful qualities that the White Dove represents.
Winged Flight
From today this winged love begins its flight
across the skies of time.
It will fly above the bounds of earth
and beyond the edge of now,
for when hearts and minds come
together as one,
the union takes mere mortals
to places never been.
The flight of love will allow you to
challenge your wildest dreams.
Side by side you will explore the
endless possibilities of your shared world
And your journey will soar and fly
with bearings sound and direction true.
May your winds be favourable
and your skies remain clear
as you guide your shared flight
towards the rising sun, for in the dawn of each new day
you will find the light to guide your way.
May you enjoy your journey
along the way, and may you feel
the gentle guiding presence of others
who share the skies with you,
the place of freedom,
adventure and endless hope.

Sources say CIOs must have technology background
CIOs will get a new mission under the Office of Management Budget's IT management reform plan unveiled earlier this month. Within the next six months, the Obama administration plans to shift the responsibility of agency CIOs from policy-making to portfolio management, thereby strengthening government accountability and efficiency.
To make the shift successful, however, observers said the federal government must ensure CIOs are considered part of an agency's leadership team and are able to promote the business value of IT projects, harking back to longstanding debate about the value of the CIO position.
Related coverage:
Industry says ambitious White House IT reform plan is doable
White House serious about killing some IT programs
Specifically, the plan indicates that agency CIOs will be responsible for continuously identifying unmet needs to be addressed by new projects, terminating or turning around poorly performing projects and retiring IT investments which no longer meet the needs of the agency.
The reform report calls for federal agencies overall to turn around or terminate at least one-third of poorly performing projects within the next 18 months.
Agency CIOs will also lead TechStat sessions – an evidence-based review of IT projects – within their departments. (For more information on TechStat, click here.)
The Federal CIO Council will fulfill a similar management role as agency CIOs, but at a cross-agency level. The council will periodically review the highest priority TechStat findings from agency CIOs in order to share best practices and common failures, according to the plan.
Because of the enormous pressure to increase the value of the government's IT investments, CIOs can't be confined to dealing with policy, said Rick Webb, a former CIO for the state of North Carolina.
Webb, who is now the chief technology officer of Accenture's Canada and U.S. state and local government practice, added that the role of CIOs is not just about technology anymore. "It's really about a people process, government and leadership," he said. "CIOs, if they are positioned appropriately in the organization, generally have one foot in the area of business and one foot in technology."
Mark Forman, the federal government's first CIO, expressed a similar perspective. "A CIO has to understand the business processes of their agency," he said. "The underlying issue here is how do you apply technology to improve performance in a way that people who perform will adopt it. If you can't address that gap, [you're] going to have a failed project no matter which technology you have."
Forman, who now leads KPMG's federal performance and technology advisory services practice, said the federal government must build a cadre of CIOs who can communicate to non-IT people the value of an IT project that will transform the way the agency does business.
"CIOs increasingly need to be able to interpret technology trends and turn them into meaningful opportunities," Forman added.
And if the administration is serious about granting CIOs greater oversight authority, it must ensure that these officials are considered part of their agency's leadership, sources said.
Several sources suggested that giving CIOs more power is long overdue.
"In some agencies, the agency CIO has a seat at the executive leadership table," said Bob Dix, vice president of government affairs and critical infrastructure protection for Juniper Networks. "In the majority of agencies, the CIO role is four or five levels down."
Dix said an important element of the IT reform plan should be empowering and elevating the CIO role in leadership teams across Cabinet agencies – something that can't be achieved without buy-in from agency leadership. He noted that CIOs were meant to have such authority under the Clinger-Cohen Act of 1996.
Forman added that CIOs must be included in the agency's budget discussions, along with the agency's chief financial officer, if they are to oversee IT investments.
Agency CIOs should also have a technology background so they can effectively manage IT projects. In the past, CIO positions have been populated by political appointees who were not well-versed in IT, according to sources.
To ensure CIOs can fulfill their job duties, the qualifications of a CIO should be better defined, Dix said. This would ensure agency CIOs and the Federal CIO Council are more productive and efficient, he added.
The length of a CIO's term was another point of concern for some. The average time a federal CIO stays in the office is 18 months to two years, which prevents continuity of leadership, Dix said. If CIOs are now going to be determining the future of federal IT projects, they should remain in their positions for longer to see projects to fruition, Dix and others suggested.
As for the Federal CIO Council, Forman said he thinks that group's biggest challenge under the new reform plan will be deciding when to terminate an IT project. There are many legacy applications that are past their useful life, Forman explained, but there is no guidance on when it is appropriate to end those projects. In the face of technology advances, the council must determine a governmentwide process for terminating an IT program, he said.

LOS ANGELES (AP) - "The Amazing Spiderman," ''Taxi Driver" and "The Karate Kid" are getting some real resolution.
Q: I know someone who is getting disability benefits from Social Security. But he spends half of his disability check on illegal drugs. How can this person get away with wasting taxpayer money like this? Is there any way I can report him to the authorities? Also, how can a drug addict get benefits in the first place?
WASHINGTON (AP) - American consumers have shown about as much appetite for the $1 coin as kids do their spinach. They may not know what's best for them either. Congressional auditors say doing away with dollar bills entirely and replacing them with dollar coins could save taxpayers some $4.4 billion over the next 30 years.
WASHINGTON (AP) - Superstorm Sandy packed a bigger economic punch than most people had thought.

LOUIS (AP) - After months of drought, companies that ship grain and other goods down the Mississippi River are being haunted by a potential nightmare: If water levels fall too low, the nation's main inland waterway could become impassable to barges just as the harvest heads to market.
WASHINGTON (AP) - A pickup in consumer spending and steady home sales helped lift economic growth from October through early November in most parts of the United States, according to a Federal Reserve survey released Wednesday. The one exception was the Northeast, which was slowed by Superstorm Sandy.
WASHINGTON (AP) - The Obama administration put a stop to new federal contracts with BP on Wednesday, admonishing the British oil company for a "lack of business integrity" and also disqualifying it indefinitely from winning new leases to drill on taxpayer-owned lands.
LOS ANGELES (AP) - Former Baltimore Orioles all-star Doug DeCinces and three others were indicted Wednesday on insider trading charges involving the use of information prior to the takeover of a medical device company in California, authorities said.
