Last Wednesday night may have marked a shift in U.S. policymaking attitudes. As the police in Ferguson, Missouri, just straight-up started arresting and tear-gassing and pointing their snipers and death tanks at everyone, all while wearing unnecessary and some might say counterintuitive tuff guy jungle-camo outfits, the nation seemed to collectively realize that this was insane. Why are suburban police departments armed to duel with Megatron in situations where they're supposed to be "keeping the peace"?
It, of course, wasn't the first instance of the growing trend of police militarization – wherein local police departments are outfitted with hand-me-down goodies procured by the Defense Department, allowing the friendly local constable to warp into an expensive murder-robot sent on a mission to exterminate the scourge of jaywalkers. But the scene in Ferguson caught the public's eye to such an extent that politicians and officials — the president, the attorney general, the speaker of the House, the Senate majority leader, Missouri politicians, and de facto libertarian leaders felt compelled to weigh in.
"At a time when we must seek to rebuild trust between law enforcement and the local community," Eric Holder said, "I am deeply concerned that the deployment of military equipment and vehicles sends a conflicting message." "We need to demilitarize this situation," Missouri Sen. Claire McCaskill weighed in, noting that "this kind of response by the police has become the problem instead of the solution." And Sen. Rand Paul, the libertarian-leaning 2016 hopeful, wrote an Op-Ed about how "we must demilitarize the police," a risk that could loosen the soil on the right's traditionally rigid law-and-order posture.
Rep. Hank Johnson, a Georgia Democrat, has been working on a bill to demilitarize the police for some time, his office said, and is now rushing the process to have the proposal ready for when Congress reconvenes in September. The bill would limit the Pentagon program that funnels this sleek, deadly gear down to the local police departments and SWAT teams that use them to terrorize people in order to protect the peace.
Johnson criticized the Pentagon's '1033′ program, which offers surplus military equipment to state and local law enforcement, including M16 rifles and mine-resistant ambush protected vehicles (MRAP).
He noted in the last several months those vehicles have been given to cities in Texas, Idaho, Indiana, Minnesota, New York, South Carolina, Tennessee, Arizona, Illinois and Alabama.
"This trend is not only sweeping America's small cities, it's hitting American college campuses as well. Ohio State University recently acquired an MRAP," he said. "Apparently, college kids are getting too rowdy."
Johnson said his bill would limit the type of equipment that could be transferred and would make sure states track all equipment received.
What's most interesting about Johnson's proposal, at the moment, is the odd left-right political coalition of outside groups that is organizing around it. The ACLU supports it, as does Gun Owners of America. Wait a second? Did we just say "Gun Owners of America," a crazy group to the right of the NRA, supports it? Apparently so:
According to the Defense Logistics Agency, more than $4 billion in discounted military equipment has been sold to local police departments since the 1990s.
"Why are those guns available to the police?" asked Erich Pratt, spokesman for the conservative Gun Owners of America. "We don't technically have the military operating within our borders, but they're being given the gear to basically operate in that capacity."
Gun Owners of America and the ACLU are both backing a forthcoming bill from Rep. Hank Johnson (D-Ga.) that would curtail the sale of DOD weapons to local police departments.
The support of a group like GOA could provide cover to Republicans and conservative Democrats looking to support a police demilitarization bill.
Still: Congress. We're going to guess that Johnson's bill won't go anywhere any time soon in this Congress. The story of police response in Ferguson, sadly, will probably disappear from national media focus by the time Congress reconvenes in September. Congress doesn't pass any high-profile legislation in the first place, and it certainly won't in the couple weeks in which it will be in session before heading off to campaign through November. It would be especially hard for most Republicans and a good number of centrist/conservative Democrats to go directly against the wishes of the Fraternal Order of Police in the months ahead of an election, too.
But while the situation in Ferguson has been horrible, it's appropriately drawn a new level of scrutiny from right- and left-wingers alike to one of the more ludicrous government programs out there. And it fits into what is, hopefully, one of the few decent paradigm shifts happening on the national political level today: unwinding the ridiculous criminal justice complex that politicians have spent decades amassing. When it comes to police demilitarization and sentencing reform for nonviolent offenders, the certain elements of the right feel more comfortable now entertaining proposals to loosen things, and the left feels less pressure to act self-parodically "tough on crime" to attract white suburban people. We may not be "there" yet, in terms of passing meaningful legislation, but hopefully the situation will be viable enough for the next president — Democratic or Republican — to act forcefully.

installing a shower rail
We are changing out our master bath and have had the plumbers come in for the initial re-plumbing for the new rail and temperature/volume valve. Now on to the sheet rock phase and we just realized today that we forgot to install a beam to support the bottom of the rail. You can install with just anchors but we don't want to do that - not that we will use it as a grab bar but SOMEBODY may down the road, and we don't want it ripping out of the wall. We looked over the instructions again and are confused as to what exactly has to go behind the sheet rock before it is closed in again and tiled. There is nothing that we put behind the sheet rock, either the top or bottom connection point. I know that we are missing something here...
Here are some pictures leading up to where we are now.
I posted this earlier in the gallery section but I see that this section gets more traffic.
Here is a link that might be useful: pictures of the project
You want a solid piece of wood, like a framing stud. It can be larger, of course, which gives you more options for placement. Our carpenter put in large, thick pieces - like 2x6s - and firmly attached them to the framing in each area where we plan to put grab rails...we've got a grab rail and a grab rail/shelf in the walk in shower, and a grab rail and a rail/TP holder by the toilet (one on each side).
Good for you to plan ahead. If you ever break a leg, you will be so glad you are putting the rails in! (so I'm an orthopedic disaster...)
I am curious why you are choosing to use dry wall instead of cement board in your shower. Are you using Kerdie or something similar over the drywall?
We are not installing grab bars, but the rail can be a grab bar, and that is what my question is about. Unfortunately, where the plumbing is, and where the cross piece would go, is where the pipe comes up so there is not enough depth for even a 2x4. I am thinking of making a metal piece,,,
We are using plain sheetrock because our tile installer will be using the Schluter system and told us that we don't need to use cement board. He said that the Schluter system works so well that he will not do a bathroom unless that is part of the plan. The membrane will go all the way up the walls as far as the tile does.
Yes, I understand, Schluter makes Kerdie. I am not sure what the "Schluter system" is but I have heard that Kerdie could be attached to drywall.
Here is a product that I have seen referenced once or twice its called a Wingit. I have linked it below.
Here is a link that might be useful: wingit web site
When I read that your installer wouldn't use cement board, I was certain I was going to prove him wrong. Oops. I stand corrected. The Schluter video shows the shower protection being installed over regular drywall, not even greenboard.

Extra snow? Tubing hill needs 150 truckloads
Most of us have too much snow.
Not Mike Ong, who is accepting donations of compact snow by the truckload to build a tubing hill at the Kootenai County Fairgrounds.
The 150-foot-long hill, modeled after two half-pipes, will be one of the attractions at the upcoming North Idaho Winter Festival in Coeur d'Alene, scheduled for Feb. 8-10.
"We needed more than we could scrape off the ground," said Ong, who works for Community Shopper, the festival's organizer. So when snow started falling in earnest Saturday afternoon, it was "an answer to prayer," he said.
An excavating company has used 250 truckloads of snow to shape the first 75 feet of the hill. On Tuesday morning, Ong figured that the tubing hill still needed about 150 truckloads.
He's finding grateful donors among the fleet of private snowplows that clear parking lots.
On-site Excavating of Rathdrum donated 100 truckloads of snow from a Safeway parking lot earlier this month. Operations Manager Bob Lowry had more snow to bring by.
"I've got about 300 loads to dump from the Silver Lake Mall and I've got Red Lobster and a realty parking lot still to do," Lowry said.
Greg Peck, another operator, is donating snow and excavating expertise to shape the hill, which will be about 35 feet high with two lanes.
The hill won't be quite as steep as Coeur d'Alene's Cherry Hill, which is a designated sledding area, Ong said.
"We're trying to keep it friendly for kids, but still fun," he said.
Ong expects about 15,000 people at the North Idaho Winter Festival, which is a fundraiser for United Way of Kootenai County and area food banks. Les Schwab is donating inner tubes for the hill.
Ong said he's eager to try out the tubing hill.
"Our riding it will be part of the grooming process," he said. "Once they've got it in the general shape, we'll grab some hand tools and inner tubes and make a day of it."

Does anyone have a TEC Inferred grill?
Does anyone have a TEC Grill? I'm not referring to the Charbroil grill with the "TEC" licensing agreement.
What did you think of the grill. I'm thinking about getting a 4 burner. The cost of the grill head is ok, but they want $1500 for a SS cabinet I will never use and another $250 per shelf. The cabinet and shelf really price the thing higher for no reason.
Ours had a stainless steel cover and edges, but part of the base was not stainless and it rusted. My husband replaced that part this past year. All the stainless still looks fine, along with the painted parts.
The grill only really has 2 temps, hot and hotter, even though the dial shows a low. It takes some getting used to, and there are somethings we don't like to cook on it because it is so hot. We have used the french fryer a few times and the griddle when our power was out. It was pretty outrageously expensive when we bought it, but it is still going strong going on 16 years later.
Cleaning is a breeze, because everything just burns off and then we wire brush the grates/racks. Other than the igniter, and the non stainless base, we have not had any problems with it.
I asked my husband if he would buy it again, and he said he would probably shop around before buying another one.
We've had our TEC grill for almost 14 years now. We had to have one igniter replaced (under warranty) years ago. Otherwise, it has worked perfectly. We live in Pittsburgh, so we have all four seasons and it has performed flawlessly in all four. We have the all SS model with two burners. I wouldn't hesitate to buy another one.
I've had the TEC G4000 FR for about 4 months now (bought it used). I had to replace the tops of the burners but called up TEC and they sent me four of them gratis (I just had to pay shipping). The grill now works great and is wonderful for grilling meats. We also grill lots of vegetables with it as there is tons of space. We usually use the high setting but for veggies we'll use a lower heat.
Need to call support about getting an ignitor I broke fixed and then I should be good as new.

This is the time of year when our sleepy harbor town is jolted wide awake. In a span of just a few weeks, the population explodes with visitors, all eager to experience Maine in a deeply personal way. As visual storytellers, we seek to explore the personality of the places we visit, and capture images that stay as true to that personality as to our own. Whether your travels bring you to Maine, or farther afield, the key to ensuring that you return home with more than just great memories is to have the right guide. Our Destinations Workshops are led by heavy hitters whose images have graced the pages of National Geographic, Newsweek, Harpers, LIFE, Outside, and The New York Times Magazine. This fall and winter, they'll be journeying to remote villages in Bhutan, Myanmar, Namibia, and Botswana. They'll explore the timeless elegance of Paris and Venice. And closer to home, yet far from the expected, they'll be hunting for fresh perspectives on the Canadian arctic and ghost towns of the old west. If there was ever a year to take an adventure with us, this is it!
Our instructors, some of the world's best photojournalists, documentarians, and street photographers, know their destinations intimately, and will take you off the beaten path to find unique opportunities for image making. You'll not only gain an insider's perspective on the cultures you visit, but priceless instruction that will propel your work forward and change the way you see the world. That's what happened to university English professor Larry Fink a few years ago, when he sought fresh inspiration for his street photography. Larry wrote to us recently to let us know that The Streets of Paris workshop he took with Peter Turnley four years ago still has a lasting impact on his work. "The workshop exceeded my expectations. I learned new technical skills and approaches, and produced pictures that surprise me," wrote Larry.
A life-long admirer of the style of street photography pioneered by artists like Cartier-Bresson, Doisneau, and Roni, Larry sought out Peter Turnley's workshop as a link to those masters. "Peter's passion for this art form and his personal relationships with its greatest practitioners make him a priceless resource," Larry told us. "I met and learned from legendary figures responsible for the stature of street photography in the art world today." Larry also honed his ability to interact with and photograph strangers, something many of our students feel apprehensive about, particularly when visiting other cultures. "We had several opportunities to watch Peter shoot and relate to strangers on the street," Larry told us. "Peter loves people and encourages students to portray them with dignity and respect. At the same time, he pushes students to kindly interact with strangers as they record their observations of the human condition in images. It was a challenging, rewarding, and often moving experience."
Peter will be returning to Paris for his New Year's workshop, as well as leading a trip to in Venice in October. For those of you looking to go even farther afield, be sure to check out the two workshops led by adventure travel photographer and guide Jock Montgomery. In late September, photographer and documentarian Sean Kernan will join him in a journey from Calcutta to Bhutan, exploring busy markets, Buddhist festivals, remote forest passes, as well as the famous Tiger's Nest, the Takstag Monastery perched on a sheer 800m cliff. In November Jock will be joined by National Geographic photographer Mike Yamashita on a two-week adventure across Myanmar, photographing the floating farms and leg-rowing fisherman of Inle Lake, washing elephants at the Green Valley Elephant Camp, and exploring caves filled with thousands of Buddha images.
We're also really excited about the three new workshops that Arlene Collins will lead this winter. A specialist in documenting remote cultures and changing civilizations, Arlene will take two back-to-back trips to Africa in January. The first will take you to Namibia, on a photographic safari to one of the oldest, driest, and most pristine areas on earth. In addition to witnessing the sunrise over the golden Sossusvlei dunes and big game in spectacular settings, you'll also document the disappearing culture of a remote nomadic Himba tribe. Following that trip, Arlene will travel to Botswana, home to wetlands, deltas, deserts, and the amazing animal species that inhabit them. In February, she'll return to North America to lead the Inuit Arctic Adventure, where the unspoiled arctic landscape will be explored by snowmobile and dogsled, with polar bears, northern lights, and native traditions on the itinerary.
Each one of our Destination Workshops is an adventure of a lifetime, and there are many more to choose from! Check them out on our website, and then pack your bags for an unforgettable journey. It will be a trip that will stay with you long after you return home.

Geographic Range
Culicoides variipennis is found throughout North America, wherever large mammal hosts (especially ruminants) are available. (Tabachnick, 1996)
Culicoides variipennis is found mainly in moist areas and low wetlands, so livestock and animals attempting to avoid this parasite are best able to do so by staying in higher and dryer areas. (Anderson, 2000; Tabachnick, 1996)
- Habitat Regions
- freshwater
- Terrestrial Biomes
- savanna or grassland
- forest
- Aquatic Biomes
- lakes and ponds
- rivers and streams
- temporary pools
- Other Habitat Features
- agricultural
- riparian
Physical Description
Adult Culicoides variipennis are less than 1 mm in length, allowing them to be very pesky and difficult to keep from livestock. The genus can also be identified by its spotted, narrow wings. These wings also have few veins and fold over the abdomen while the fly is at rest. Only females feed on blood, so they have somewhat different mouthparts from males. (Roberts and Janovy, 2000)
- Other Physical Features
- ectothermic
- heterothermic
- bilateral symmetry
- Sexual Dimorphism
- sexes alike
- Range length
- less than 1 (high) mm
- in
Females of this species lay their eggs in wet environments, including aquatic, subaquatic, or moist soil conditions, where they hatch and develop into larvae. These aquatic or subaquatic larvae feed on dying organisms or other organic material. Depending on the environmental conditions, the life cycle may last a half year up through three years. (Roberts and Janovy, 2000)
- Key Reproductive Features
- seasonal breeding
- gonochoric/gonochoristic/dioecious (sexes separate)
- sexual
- fertilization
- oviparous
Culicoides variipennis tends to be a swarming insect; it usually attacks its host in swarms. The slight size of the insect makes it difficult for the host to rid itself of the pest, so the fly can attack the host in great numbers. (Roberts and Janovy, 2000)
Food Habits
This dipteran feeds on a variety of domestic ruminants, most notably sheep and cattle, along with some wild ruminants. Culicoides variipennis lands on its host, where it bites through the skin. The species is a telmophage, which means it bites through the skin and laps up the blood that pools out. Culicoides variipennis bites the host with its mandibles and feeds on the blood with its proboscis. (Tabachnick, 1996)
- Primary Diet
- carnivore
- detritivore
- Animal Foods
- blood
- body fluids
- Other Foods
- detritus
Ecosystem Roles
These insects are food for a variety of small predators, mostly other insects and spiders. Females of this species feeds on a variety of ruminant mammals, most notably sheep and cattle, along with some wild ruminants. They are also a vector for the virus that causes "bluetongue," a disease in domestic livestock.
This species is also host to a parasitic nematode, Heleidomermis magnapapula. (Tabachnick, 1996)
- a nematode, Heleidomermis magnapapula
Economic Importance for Humans: Negative
Culicoides variipennis has a negative impact on the agricultural economy. The flies themselves aren't very harmful to livestock, but they are a vector to a more prominent problem: the virus that causes "bluetongue." Infection by the bluetongue virus can cause a variety of symptoms in ruminants, such as swelling of the tongue and face and erosions in the mouth and throat. The symptoms are less severe in cattle, but infection in sheep often leads to death. Also, infection in pregnant ruminants can lead to adverse effects--central nervous system damage and death--to developing fetuses if the infections occur early enough in the pregnancy. In addition, it is estimated that in the late 1990's, about $125 million was lost annually in the agricultural economy because of export restrictions intended to prevent bluetongue-infected livestock from being shipped to bluetongue-free countries.
The virus is easily transferrable from fly to host and vice versa via C. variipennis feeding on host blood. The virus can replicate in the fly's thorax, and can eventually be secreted in the fly's saliva within 7-10 days, when it can be transferred to another ruminant. (Anderson, 2000; Bowne and Jones, 1966; Kimberling, 1988; Tabachnick, 1996)
- Negative Impacts
- causes or carries domestic animal disease
Conservation Status
This species is quite common and has no special conservation status.
- IUCN Red List
- No special status
- US Federal List
- No special status
- No special status
- State of Michigan List
- No special status
Other Comments
There is a natural parasite that is being manipulated to combat C. variipennis, the nematode Heleidomermis magnapapula. Studies are currently being conducted to test the effectiveness of this hyperparasite (an organism that parasitizes another parasite). (Paine and Mullens, 1994)

1992 Honda Civic Body Kits
1992 Honda Civic body kits are additional components that can be used to upgrade and revitalize a vehicle's appearance. After years of usage, the exterior parts on many cars begins to look worn and old. Any damage to a car's paint job or to the exterior parts themselves can lower a automobile's value, making the use of bodykits is just that significant. A aerodynamic kits can change a car look prettier, without ever replacing any of the true mechanics of the automobile.
Some custom 1992 Honda Civic body kit products come with replacements for several highly affected components, front & back bumpers and side add ons. These are the areas of a car that are often damaged from daily driving, but these alone aren't the only pieces that could be easily replaced. Other aftermarket body paneling can be used to upgrade a car's look, so 1992 Honda Civic body kit can often be special ordered to a car owner's specific needs. For an enhanced appearance that takes off the poor appearance created from years of usage, a cool body kit can make you smile.

There are French butter dishes that will keep butter fresh for about a month. They are two parts, the top contains the butter and the bottom water. The water keep the butter from being oxidized, which breaks down the butter. French butter dishes are centuries old and were used long before refrigeration.

sugar maple question
I have a question about damage to a young sugar maple I planted. Tree is (actually was) about 7-8 ft. tall. One of my 1 1/2 yr old great danes decided he would chew on it. He snapped it off about 3 ft of the ground. All of the growth was above the area broken off except one branch emerging about 1 ft below the break.
Will this become the new leader? Should I just leave it alone? Should I cut it slightly above this emerging branch? Is it likely the tree will recover?
It is bad enough having to worry about deer. The tree cost $40, about the same as a bag of his dog food. Hmmm, I could deduct....nahhh.. he might eat more trees.
Yes and no.
More than likely, the maple has enough reserved sugars in the root system to push out new growth this season. However, this will have a major effect on the aesthetic appearance and may present structural problems down the road. If the tree is highly visible or a "feature" of the landscape I would recommend cutting your losses now and replanting.
If leaving the tree, it is a waiting game. The damaged leader should be pruned back to just above the lateral branch. I would not fertilize the tree this season but would monitor for dry soil and water as needed.

I'd like to customize the animation styles when a UICollectionViewCell is inserted and/or deleted.
The reason why I need this is that by default I see that inserting a cell has a smooth fade in animation, however deleting a cell has a combination of move-to-the-left + fade out animation. I would be very happy with this if not for one problem.
After I delete a cell, it is still reused when I add new ones, and when it's reused it's added not with the default fade in effect, but instead it's a combination of move-to-the-left + fade in.
I'm not sure why I'm getting this inconsistency in animations. If this is a known bug/problem/stupidity(on my side :)) please let me know how to fix it.
Otherwise, let me know how to set custom animations when the cell is deleted (or point me towards a tutorial).
Fixed the weird animation behavior by subclassing UICollectionViewFlowLayout and adding this line of code
- (UICollectionViewLayoutAttributes *) initialLayoutAttributesForAppearingItemAtIndexPath:(NSIndexPath *)itemIndexPath {
return nil;
That's it! :)

Mike Grehan | December 29, 2008 | Comments
What's the point of having a rank at a search engine for a specific keyword or phrase if it doesn't send relevant traffic?
It's that time of the year for reflection. If nothing else, I can give a huge sigh of relief for the long overdue recognition of the ranking report's demise.
It's been more than four years since I did an indepth interview with Jon Glick, then Yahoo's senior manager, search.
When we touched on the subject of ranking reports, here's what he said: "The next phase will be where you're able to take into account information about the end user. And of course local, because local search is a subset of personalization. For local to really work, you need to know where the person is. So, the issue of: 'I'm number one for this keyword'... may not exist at all in a few years. You know, you'll be number one for that keyword depending on who types it in...And from where and on what day...It is going to get more complex than something that can simply be summed up in a ranking algorithm."
Some very educated guesswork going on there. And I've been talking about and researching the subject of end user behavior in the ranking and re-ranking mix ever since. Of course, with so many SEO (define) shops having nothing more to offer than a ranking report, few wanted to hear that.
My argument about ranking reports has remained pretty consistent for the past 10 years: What's the point of having a rank at a search engine for a specific keyword or phrase if it doesn't send relevant traffic? Or worse, what's the point of having a rank at a search engine for a keyword or phrase that sends no traffic at all?
I have just wanted to cry when I think back about the number of times over the years I've encountered a potential new client who told me its existing SEO firm has it ranked in the top 10 at Google for 200 keywords or phrases. I've then had to inform the potential client that it's not hard to secure a number-one result for your own name spelled backwards. The whole point of being visible at a search engine is to drive quality, targeted traffic that converts!
And now, as the 10 blue links at search engines become nothing more than a reminder of how search looked in the past, ranking reports couldn't be more redundant.
I've written before about relevance feedback and the vital role it plays in information retrieval on the Web. Just because a ranking algorithm based on linkage data and text puts a series of documents in a certain order, that doesn't necessarily mean they are the best quality documents. Relevance and quality are two different things. The best way to discover which documents relevant to query are the best quality, you must fold in end user evaluation. So even if you ranked in the top 10 for a certain query, a few thousand clicks on the browser back button seconds after the initial click through sends a mighty strong signal to a search engine regarding a page's quality.
But now there's going to be a much stronger signal than just hitting the back button, or following user trails. Google's introduction of SearchWiki is likely to become an even bigger game changer. In a TechCrunch interview, Marissa Mayer, Google's vice president, search products and user experience, talked about the use of end user data created by SearchWiki. She said that data, for now, isn't being used to change overall search results. But in the future it's likely Google will use the data to make obvious changes. An example is if "thousands of people" were to knock a search result off a search page, they'd be likely to make a change.
Once again, relevance feedback from the end user is a primary factor for deciding which content to connect users with.
I work with a crack team of data-driven analysts. We're focused on providing meaningful information to our clients based on an advanced approach to analytics. Slowly, but surely, we're weaning our clients off the SEO crack cocaine that has been a ranking report and on to more meaningful key performance indicators and deliverables.
An addendum: Here's a fascinating read for the new year: "Googlization Of Libraries, due in stores soon. The book includes a variety of articles that look critically and judiciously at Google and its products, with a focus on Google Scholar and Google Book Search.
Interesting stuff if you're at all interested in library science and the impact of Google.
I wish you all a happy, peaceful, and prosperous new year.

New Juice Combos for Brazilian Dog Days
Brazil is famous for the variety and quality of its fresh fruit drinks, and juice stands are commonplace fixtures on streets and in shopping malls all around the country. Brazil has such an abundance of delicious tropical fruits (oranges, pineapples, mangoes, limes, passion fruit, watermelon, etc.) that juice menus often have twenty or more choices.
Recently, people in Brazil have begun to discover that mixing fruits together, or adding additional non-fruit flavors to a drink can have spectacularly delicious results. As a result, each year, new combinations become popular. A few years ago, fresh pineapple juice blended with fresh mint leaves swept the country, and today it's rare to find a juice stand that doesn't offer that combination. But we all crave novelty, so barmen and women in juice stands, hotel bars, and seaside restaurants continue to offer new mixtures to satisfy demand.
A recent report in Rio de Janeiro's O Globo newspaper highlighted the most popular new juice combos for summer 2013 in that famously hot city. One very popular drink this summer is mango with mint, which employs the cooling sensation that mint gives to pump up the refreshment factor of the juice. It's long been known that citrus-based drinks cool very effectively because their acidity encourages production of saliva which cools the mouth, so new citrus combinations are very popular this year, particularly tangerine combined with carrot.
The addition of non-fruit ingredients to juices is new in Brazil, but popping vegetables into the juicer along with fruits is increasingly popular. Vegetable juices aid in retention of water in the body, which increases the body's ability to resist heat, so there's a valid nutritional reason for adding vegetables as well. Nutritionist Andréa Santa Rosa Garcia recommends a mixture of coconut water and lime juice, blended with parsley and kale, and adds that this combination can also help to alleviate stress.
If it's 10 below where you live, tag this article for reference when the dog days return next summer. If you're enjoying a Southern Hemisphere summer, whether here in Brazil, in South Africe or in Australia get out your blender, get adventurous when shopping for fruits and vegetables, and combine, combine, combine.

The traditional full-size Detroit station wagon was in trouble by the end of the 1980s, thanks to the rise of the minivan. Increasingly car-like SUVs would kick the other leg out from under big rear-drive wagon sales during the 1990s, and so this great big GM B-platform wagon is one of the last of its type. Look, it's even a woodie! (Read More…)

Unlike other columns that do the same, we'll take a look at products that actually stand a chance of making the business case, and how that can be met.

With the introduction of the MKV Volkswagen Jetta, VW re-introduced the much-loved GLI as a full member of the range (rather than the late cycle special edition of the MKIV). But in Canada, it took the GLI a full model year to be introduced. Canadian customers got a model dubbed the 2.0T that featured the same 2.0T engine, a sports suspension and 17″ wheels. Among from the 2.0T were the the 18″ wheels, low profile tires, bodykit and plaid fabric seats, all of which came on the GLI. It was basically a "normcore" GLI, and it ended up being the car that replaced my father's 2003 BMW 530i.
At the launch event for the Volkswagen Golf Sportwagen in Austin, Texas, a chat with one gentleman from Volkswagen AG turns to a discussion of old Saab rally cars and his affinity for Swedish cars. The future of Saab seems up in the air, but in his mind, Volvo's is more clear-cut. "These next few months will be crucial," he says, as talk turns to the launch of the XC90, "this is their last chance to turn things around."
By the end of the event, I'm convinced that VW has built a better Volvo than Volvo itself.
If you listen to those who claim to love the Volvo 140, every example of the breed is extremely valuable and must be saved… and yet there's a greater disparity between the Talking The Talk Quotient (TTTQ) and the Walking The Walk Quotient (WTWQ) seen among self-proclaimed Volvo fanatics than found among aficionados of any other marque. Yes, the TTTQ:WTWQ value approaches something like 100:1 when it comes to the poor old Volvo 140, a car whose basic design lived on well into the 1990s (in the form of the 140-descendent 240), and so almost none of these cars get rescued when they get down-at-the-heels (and the same goes for 240s). Here's a San Francisco Bay Area 145 that shows signs of being well-cared-for during its first 15 years and then forgotten in a side yard for the following quarter-century. (Read More…)
In one of those confusing branding moves that's up there with the baffling Toyota Corolla Tercel, Ford decided to name a Torino-based midsize car the LTD II while keeping the regular full-sized LTD. This went on for the 1977 and 1978 model years, and then for 1979 the "big" LTD went to the Panther platform and sold alongside LTD IIs for that year. Why? Well, that's like asking why Henry Ford II refused Soichiro Honda's offer of cheap CVCC engines for the Fiesta a few years before! Anyway, here's an extremely green first-year LTD II wagon (not a Country Squire, which was based on the larger "regular" LTD) that I spotted in Northern California a couple weeks back. (Read More…)
Commonplace as the Dodge Aspen was during the Middle and Late Malaise Era— you saw them on American roads in 1980 or so about as often as you'd see, say, Hyundai Accents today. The Aspen (and its Plymouth sibling, the Volaré) didn't hold their value so well, and nearly all of them were crushed by the early 1990s. I photograph them whenever I see them, of course, but that isn't often. In this series before today, we've seen this '76 Aspen sedan, this '76 Volaré sedan, this brown-on-beige '77 Volaré coupe and this '77 Volaré Premier wagon, and now we've got a mossy, lichen-covered Northern California Aspen wagon. (Read More…)
The collective distaste for the Mercedes-Benz CLA and GLA is known among the B&B and the wider automotive world – but now, Mercedes has dropped a collective bomb on the psyche of enthusiasts everywhere.
The popularity of the full-size station wagon went into steep decline during the course of the 1980s, thanks to competition from minivans and less truck-ish SUVs, and there wasn't a particularly compelling reason to get a Mercury wagon instead of its near-identical, cheaper Ford sibling, so the 1979-1991 Mercury Grand Marquis Colony Park wagon was uncommon then and near-extinct now. I do see some Ford LTD Country Squires in wrecking yards nowadays— this '86 woodie and this '87 woodie, for example— but this Colony Park is the first I've seen in at least a decade. (Read More…)
Is it really necessary to beat the dead horse again? We know that enthusiasts love wagons, demand more wagons, praise wagons and don't buy wagons. We should be lucky we have any wagons left in our marketplace. The Audi A4 and Subaru Legacy wagons gave way to the Allroad and Outback, two jacked-up, cladding-encrusted faux-crossovers that are really just wagons by another name. Volvo did the same thing too, axing the V70 wagon while retaining the XC70. And then they relented.
This is the second time that Volkswagen has trotted out a butch-looking station wagon-on-stilts under the Alltrack moniker. The last version, a Passat, debuted at the 2012 New York Auto Show.
