I have been working at Penske Automotive Group full-time (less than a year)
Penske Austomotive is owned by Roger Penske who takes pride in every business opportunity he aquires. The benefits are great and the HR department is always thorough and helpful. Mr. Penske hires the best General Managers and the staff is always friendly. The atmosphere is professional yet there is no micro-management. I would recommend Penske to any who are applying. Our VP of operations stops and speaks to employees in passing, always waves and always has a smile as you can tell he enjoys his job. I would love to stay within the Penske Corporation as far as employment goes.
Some seasons are slower than others in the car business, but you have to take the good with the bad! The god seasons outweigh the bad!!!!!
Keep doing what you are doing. They go above and beyond to make sure employees are happy. There is always an open door policy and the GM always has time for whoever should come knocking!

Good Benefits, Co-workers are fun and make coming into work worth it.Cons
No Work-Life Balance, Very long hours, and no management accessment and/or training.Advice to ManagementAdvice
Roger Penske and his Corporate team is absolutely clueless as to what really goes on in these dealerships, he trust that management (GM's) are doing their best to mentor staff and encourage internal growth but all management want to do is recruit unqualified applicants and expect the existing employees to train. We are the employees who are working our asses off, hard-working, dedicated, come to work even during the worst weather conditions, loyal and most of all, COMMITTED TO WHAT WE DO and yet, we still get no recognition. Some will even attest to GM's trying to sabotage some employee's job by making their lives so unhappy, they quit.... Dig deeper Roger Penske....Doesn't RecommendNegative Outlook

WANTED: Have bamboo to trade
I have a variegated-leaf bamboo that grows to about 15' and sheds it's leaves in the winter...Canes are about 1 1/2-2" thick at the base, but they arch too much for fishing poles. They do spread, as I had to bury tin shets around them to keep them from the yard. I would like to trade away some root cutngs and small shoots for the things on my "Plants Wanted" page. If you have nothing there, make a suggestion, please.The variegated leaves are so pretty in the Spring, with the wind blowing thru them. Get back to me if interested.
I have autumn joy sedum I can send you when it comes up this spring or I can send you some forsynthia bush cuttings. also I have some redhotpokers, lemon balm and lotsa mint! my 11 year old got a start of bamboo years ago but it didn't take off. he loves it. also if anyone wants to trade for houseplant starts im game.
I am looking for outdoor xeriascape plants for a small cactus garden, so I am pretty much easy to please. Feel free to make a suggestion (I do like any variegated types). Just let me know how much and how big a start you need, and we can go from there.
I do not need succulents, but would not be adverse to setting you all up with a starting of this stuff. Let me know your needs, and i wil see what I can do for you.
Rick in Texas, the land of cowpies and grassburrs.
I haven't got much. im just really starting over. when my kids were little I didn't work and had my outside and inside plants. then I trotted my happy butt to work at a hospital and nursing homes for about 15 years. between that and juggling basketball baseball and boyscouts I just didn't have time. I was diagnosed with multiple sclerosis 2 years ago and had to leave work soon after. now I have the time but my funds are limited until I get my social security hearing so ill be willing to try anything. I love just about any plant. let me know how much to send you for postage if you can get me started please and thank you.
Please send me your mailing addy to firstname.lastname@example.com, and I will gladly supply you with root cuttings to get it started...I am also disabled, so I completely understand your plight....No need for any postage , either... I will absorb that.
All the best regards,
LtlWilli ~ Rick
Hi Rick!
I'd love a bamboo start! I have some Haworthia fasciata pups that are houseplants here, but I'm guessing they could be used outdoors in a cactus garden. I also have a red-twigged dogwood cutting from last year which is rooted and growing, although I am unsure how it would fare down in your area. sadly, I have nothing on your wish list, as I'm a relative noob.
I am sorry, but I am at the northern edge of zone 8 and it frequently goes below 20 here. So, it would not work in this cactus garden.
You might want to place a post pointing out your want for bamboo, and mention what you have to trade..You might just get a bite.
Best of luck.

Blue Oval admits the demand for V8s will go into decline but a new 300kW 5.0-litre is favourite to slot into Falcons in 2010, writes BRUCE NEWTON.
Ford Australia has confirmed it is staying in the V8 business beyond the life of the current 5.4-litre Boss engine.
And the favourite to take over from the ageing Boss is an aluminium double overhead cam 5.0-litre codenamed 'Coyote' that is currently under development in the USA with baseline outputs reported to be around 300kW and 540Nm.
While timing for the changeover remains a closely guarded secret, at or around the upgrade from the Euro III to Euro IV emissions standard from July 1 2010 shapes as a logical point.
Ford Australia product development director Russell Christophers refused to confirm the Coyote name, but did say Ford was committed to a V8 future. He said he liked the figures being quoted for the new engine However, he has yet to physically experience it.
"I have seen the performance curves and it is a pretty good engine," he said.
The decision to continue with V8s is good news not only for Ford performance car fans but also Ford Performance Vehicles (FPV), which continues to sell more V8s than turbo six-cylinders despite the latter offering superior performance and fuel economy.
"We are going to have to take a punt," said Christophers. "It is amazing how that segment has really stood up. If people just want performance they would buy the turbo, but plenty of people are still buying the V8.
"The window of opportunity is small because there will not continue to be a demand and a need for V8s. The thing you are punting on is there going to be enough demand to get a payback on this program. The demand is going to be in decline."
Christophers admitted that the financial uncertainty surrounding the future of General Motors was a motivator for Ford continuing to offer a V8.
"If something happened to Holden, and HSV (Holden's equivalent to FPV) folded, we would be mad not to continue in that (V8) business," he said. "But I don't know that is going to happen."

The erratic right-hander was pulled from last night's game against the Brewers due to the injury and traveled back to Chicago to undergo an…
Carlos Marmol has lost his job
May 4, 2012, 12:02 PM EDT
Darn. Mere hours after I started a push to get closer implosions called "Marmols," the new stat's namesake loses his job. David Kaplan of CSNChicago.com reports: Marmol officially informed by Dale Sveum that he is out as Cubs closer. No defined role as of yet. — David Kaplan (@thekapman) May 4, 2012 I guess they…
Carlos Marmol implodes again
May 3, 2012, 3:29 PM EDT
UPDATE: The bullpen choke is complete. Rafael Dolis stayed on to pitch the 10th and the Reds won it on a sacrifice fly. After a Dolis throwing error, of course. Bad day for the Cubbies. 3:29 PM: As this post goes up the Cubs-Reds game is still going on. But it shouldn't be. And for…
Kerry Wood, Carlos Marmol ugly it up again
Apr 7, 2012, 4:45 PM EDT
In the Cubs' first game Thursday, Kerry Wood took a blown save in the eighth and Carlos Marmol got the loss in the ninth. In the second game Saturday, Wood took the loss in the eighth and Marmol got tagged with a blown save in the same inning. Wood got the call to start the…
Kerry Wood shows us his best Carlos Marmol
Apr 5, 2012, 4:40 PM EDT
Entering a 1-0 game with one on and two outs in the eighth, Kerry Wood walked three straight batters to tie up Thursday's matinee between the Cubs and Nationals. It wasn't a case of Wood completely losing the strike zone, but he did keep just missing after getting to two strikes on both Adam LaRoche…
Running down the rosters: Chicago Cubs
Feb 14, 2012, 6:13 PM EDT
Forget about 2012 and probably 2013 as well; the Cubs are thinking long-term after luring Theo Epstein from Boston as their new showrunner. This year's club won't necessarily be one of the worst in baseball — the pitching depth could help it avoid that fate — but there's also little in the way of upside…

WORE Trail Rules and Guidelines General There will be no alcohol and or drugs consumed on the trail by driver or passenger. Don't litter. If you pack it in, pack it out. Always take out more than you brought in. This includes cigarette butts. If your vehicle encounters a fluid spill or large leak, make every effort to clean the contaminated area. Be courteous and give right of way to other riders on the trail. Be friendly, remember you are an ambassador of the WORE club as well as our sport. In the case of riders on horseback pull off to the side and shut your engine off. Wherever possible help out other trail users. The amount of time it will take to help different vehicles getting through some of the obstacles will vary greatly. Always be helpful and patient. If a vehicle breaks down, the trail ride will stop until we get the vehicle repaired. If possible, we will never leave someone's vehicle behind. Be aware that it is always possible that someone may break their vehicle and stop the ride. Please be patient, it may be you next time. Do not unnecessarily cut down or run over trees. If needed, cut only dead trees. Do not cause unnecessary damage to the trail. If crossing running water (creek or river), slowly drive through, and choose the route that will cause the least amount of vehicle exposure to the water. Reckless acts will not be tolerated. Neither will unnecessary damage to vehicles (yours or others), or to the trail, environment or surrounding structures. Prohibited Land At no time will members of WORE, conduct any activity on land they are not permitted to be on. This includes, but is not limited to: Wildlife Management Areas (WMA's) that state no vehicles are permitted. Private Land without the permission of the landowner. Crown Land that states no trespassing. *If granted permission to operate on any restricted land, respect any rules that apply to the land. IE, closing gates behind you, etc. *Furthermore, WORE has identified the following areas that do not permit off road activity. (To be updated as required)The Manitoba Floodway (Winnipeg) The "Wesman Salvage Pits" (located north of Wesman Salvage, Brandon) The "17th St Pits" (located south east of 17th & Richmond St's, Brandon)" Spotters In most cases, senior club members, or a trail guide, will be the lead spotter. The spotter's instructions must be adhered to at all times. Only experienced persons will be used as spotters. There should only be one person in communication with the driver while spotting a vehicle over an obstacle. Others may assist in spotting; however, one person is ultimately in charge. Different people giving the driver different instructions while attempting an obstacle can be confusing and dangerous. If you have ideas on how to get a vehicle over an obstacle, either as a driver or an observer; discuss them with the person spotting the vehicle and the driver. If you, as either a driver or a spotter, are unclear about an instruction, stop and talk it out. Safety is our biggest concern. If at any time anyone involved in the recovery feels that an unsafe act is about to occur, whether they are the driver, spotter or bystander, they can yell stop and the situation will be assessed. Vehicle Positioning Give the vehicles around you plenty of room to maneuver on the trail. If the vehicle in front of you is going up/down a steep hill climb wait until they are at the top/bottom before you start your turn. If a vehicle is going through or over an obstacle, wait until that vehicle is clear of that obstacle before proceeding. If a vehicle is stuck, wait for that vehicle to clear the obstacle before trying to go through. If required, either wait until directed by a spotter or the Trail guide to take another route. No one is to proceed past a stuck vehicle, no matter what line, unless instructed to do so by the trail guide/person in charge of the recovery. Keep an eye on the vehicle behind you. If it falls out of sight or seems to need help, slow down or wait and inform others in front of you that they need to do the same. This applies on the trail as well as on the highway when traveling in a group. If you are falling behind and need the members ahead to slow down or wait, inform others in front of you. When traveling on the highway. There must be a gap large enough between each member in the convoy to allow emergency stopping without collision. This gap increases as road speed increases and weather conditions worsen. Recovery Extreme caution must be used while recovering a vehicle. A selected spotter will take control of the recovery. Only club approved equipment will be used. No ropes or straps with hooks, no chains, etc. Never tie two or more straps together with clevises. Stand clear of tow vehicles, recovered vehicles, and the tow strap/winch line. Make sure you are out of the towline's radius, if the towline breaks, it is unpredictable in which direction it will go. Never walk over an attached towline. Never handle a steel cable without gloves. If anchoring to a tree, use a tree saver or a soft strap to protect the tree. Insure the tree is of a suitable size and strength to anchor to. I accept, and agree to follow the WORE Tail Rules and Guidelines, and that any inappropriate actions by myself, or others riding/driving with me, may result in disciplinary action.

Reviewer: mammamare, 55-64 Female on Treatment for less than 1 month (Patient)
Ease of Use
So far I am 48 hours out from the vaccination. Within 6 hours I began to experience tingling and mild itching around the injection site in my medial tricep area. It is now swollen and red in an approximate 3-4" diameter area. No blisters have appeared. I have experienced no other side effects other than tenderness in the area described above.

Reviewer: Barbie , 55-64 Female on Treatment for 6 months to less than 1 year (Patient)
Ease of Use
Rash developed on buttocks and wrist a couple of weeks after injection. Can not tell if rash is actually related to injection but rash does constantly itch and burn. So far no RX from doctors to treat rash has helped.
Reviewer: Bud, 55-64 Male on Treatment for less than 1 month (Patient)
Ease of Use
A day or two after the shot, I had a slight fever, diarrhea, and nausea.

After 24 hours, pain around the injection site and in the bicep.

Ease of Use
I received the vaccine about a week ago. The only side effect was a rash around the injection site that lasted a day or two. No joint pain or fever. Taking the vaccine was a bit of a risk as I have early stage multiple myeloma, a cancer of the plasma cells in the bone marrow. It was possible that I could get shingles from the vaccine due to my compromised immune system. The cancer was the rea ... Show Full Comment

Brotte Chateauneuf Du Pape Blanc 2013
Brotte - Rhone Valley - France - Chateauneuf Du Pape
The aromatic and deliciously flavored blended white wines of France's Rhone region have gone down in history as some of the finest in the world. The careful blending process has been gradually perfected over the centuries, and today, it is mainly Viognier, Rousanne, Marsanne and Grenache Blanc varietal grapes which are used in the production of the blended white wines of the Rhone. These grapes work together beautifully, with all but Grenache Blanc holding delightfully fruity and floral notes, full of summery flavors of honeysuckle and peach, and a relatively low acidity. The Grenache Blanc, on the other hand, is an acidic grape with a high sugar content, and is used in most blended Rhone wines to add body and length to the blend, something which is admired by vintners and wine enthusiasts around the world.
The southern French wine region of the Rhone Valley has been home to wine-makers for over two thousand years, with the first grapevines of the region being cultivated in around 600 BCE when the ancient Greeks arrived with their knowledge of viticulture and eagerness to produce more wine. Today, the region is famed around the world for the excellence of its produce, and has dozens of wineries making the most of the wide range of grape varietals which flourish there. In the northern sub-region, the continental climate and brisk winds coming off the Central Massif allow wineries to grow a smaller range of varietals predominantly Syrah, Marsanne, Roussane and Viognier, whereas the southern, more Mediterranean sub-region allows far more range. Here, dozens of varietals are grown for the production of white, red and rosé wines, all packed full of flavor and able to express the unique terroir they are grown on.
It is widely understood and accepted that the finest wines in the world come out of France. Whether you are drinking a vintage bottle from one of the famed Grand Cru wineries of Bordeaux - such as Chateau Margaux or Chateau Lafite-Rothschild - or a more simple and affordable bottle from one of the lesser known appellations in Burgundy, the likelihood is that the wine is packed full of intense and interesting flavors, and has a fine, balanced structure typical of almost all French produce. This reputation for excellence is taken extremely serious by the French, with dozens of regularly updated laws and regulations ensuring the quality and accurate labeling of wines. Such dedication and passion for fine wine, representative of the region in which it is produced, means customers can be assured that when they buy a bottle from France, they are buying something almost certain to please and delight.

Indie 'toon Animal Crackers already boasts Ian McKellen and Sylvester Stallone for an unexpected team-up as part of its cast. Now co-directors Scott Christian Sava and Tony Bancroft have announced that real-life married couple Emily Blunt and John Krasinski are also lending their voices.Animal Crackers follows a family, led by Blunt and Krasinski's Zoe and Owen Huntington who inherit a ramshackle circus. When they partake of the titular biscuits, they find themselves transformed into animals and other characters, which we feel is a plotline that 1998's Armageddon sorely missed out on."When Emily and John came in and performed their first scenes of the movie together...

Director Christopher Nolan also presented with Inspiration honour by Interstellar star Jessica Chastain.Scroll down for full list of winners
Sci-fi epic Interstellar picked up the best film prize at the Empire Awards in London last night (March 29).
Director Christopher Nolan was at the ceremony, held at Grosvenor House and hosted by actor James Nesbitt, to collect the award alongside producer Emma Thomas and star Jessica Chastain.
Chastain, who plays Matthew McConaughey's daughter in the film, was on hand earlier in the evening to present Nolan with the Empire Inspiration honour, which also earned the director of Inception and the Dark Knight Trilogy a standing ovation.
Nolan was back on stage shortly after to accept the best director award.

Earlier in the week it was reported by 'Bum Juice' scoop extraordinaire El Mayimbe at Latino Review that Carol Danvers had been cast for the Marvel Phase Three adventure Captain Marvel, and would be making her debut appearance in Avengers: Age of Ultron. Fuel was added to the fire when toy photos from the movie appeared online that included Captain Marvel in the line-up. While this rumor has been lingering around for awhile, Nerdist now calls it completely false, saying the character is not going to appear on the big screen this summer:
"A source close to production confirms that Captain Marvel will not appear in Avengers 2."
It is not known, however, if the first part of Latino Review's scoop is correct. Did Marvel already cast the role of Carol Danvers? If that is true, we haven't heard whom landed this coveted part in Marvel's Phase Three line-up just yet. »

Who wants an early Easter bonus feature from the upcoming Home Entertainment release of Disney's Into The Woods? Well, join us as we head into this entertaining exclusive behind-the-scenes clip before it's released on May 18th on Blu-ray and DVD.
For those who only know a little, Into The Woods is a modern twist on the Brothers Grimm fairy tales, entwining the plots of a few choice stories and exploring the consequences of the characters' wishes and quests. The humourous and heartfelt musical follows the classic tales of Cinderella (Anna Kendrick), Little Red Riding Hood (Lilla Crawford), Jack and the Beanstalk (Daniel Huttlestone), and Rapunzel (MacKenzie Mauzy)—all tied together by an original story involving a baker and his wife (James Corden & Emily Blunt), their wish to begin a family and their interaction with the witch (Meryl Streep) who has put a curse on them.

There are still three weeks to go before the Cannes Film Festival unveils its official-selection lineup, but so far, the latest Pixar 3D animated extravaganza and new films from Woody Allen, Todd Haynes, Jeff Nichols, Denis Villeneuve and Arnaud Desplechin appear to be securing their positions in the event's 68th annual edition (May 13-24).
In keeping with his longtime habit of avoiding festival accolades, Allen will likely receive an out-of-competition berth for his 45th feature, "Irrational Man," starring Joaquin Phoenix and Emma Stone (who starred in the director's "Magic in the Moonlight"). Among other U.S. fare, Cannes will get an early start on the summer blockbuster season with Disney/Pixar's feature toon "Inside Out," marking a second trip to the Croisette for director Pete Docter (who co-helmed with Ronaldo Del Carmen) after his "Up" opened the festival in 2009. As already announced, George Miller's "Mad Max: Fury Road, »

Gazing into the crystal ball, Screen rounds up its Cannes predictions.
With the unveiling of Cannes Film Festival's Official Selection now exactly three weeks away buzz over the titles that Thierry Fremaux and his team will select for the 68th edition is hitting fever pitch.
Official teaser announcements have started to roll this week, led by the confirmation on Wednesday that George Miller's Mad Max: Fury Road would premiere in an Out of Competition screening on May 14.
Earlier the week, Cannes unveiled its poster featuring Ingrid Bergman to mark the centenary of the late big screen's birth and it was announced that Stig Bjorkman's documentary Ingrid Bergman – In Her Own Words would show in Cannes Classics as part of the commemorations.
For the rest of the Official Selection, except perhaps the opening film which is traditionally revealed in advance, Cannes watchers will have to wait for the announcement press conference in Paris on April »

'Mission: Impossible - Rogue Nation' star Tom Cruise as Ethan Hunt 'Mission: Impossible - Rogue Nation' trailer: Movie stunt combo "Desperate times. Desperate measures," says Tom Cruise aka Ethan Hunt in the Mission: Impossible - Rogue Nation trailer aka the Mission: Impossible 5 and/or MI5 trailer. Whatever you call it, that particular line could be read in a number of ways: Tom Cruise's superstardom is in the doldrums – at least that's what we hear from those who see reality only through U.S.-focused lenses – and he needs all the box-office help he can get. Hence, MI5. Hollywood is in dire need of a mammoth domestic blockbuster following a year of mediocre-performing tentpoles at the U.S. box office. Hence, MI5. The world's socioeconomic fabric is about to unravel. Hence, MI5 – so humankind can go with a bang. Not only with a bang, but with mirth as well. »

Natural women unite: "Beautiful: The Carole King Musical" will be adapted into a feature film. The recent hit Broadway musical earned star Jessie Mueller a Tony and should be just as thrilling as a movie since it features so many classic Carole King jams. "It's Too Late" is the definitive breakup anthem of all time, everyone. But just one thing: Who the hell is going to play Carole King? I support the idea of Jessie Mueller reprising her stage role, but Streisand-type stage-to-screen moves remain pretty rare. I was personally shocked when Samantha Barks ended up in the film version of "Les Miz" after starring in London's West End production. Her face should be printed on all European currency for achieving that milestone. So just in case Mueller doesn't get to fly her tapestry on the silver screen, here are a couple of suggestions that seem feasible. Emily Blunt I »

Just one of the surprises at Marvel Studio's Phase Three announcement last year, Captain Marvel, due to hit our screens on November 2nd 2018, will be the first female led super hero movie to be the part of the McU, and one that has seen quite a few casting rumours (with everyone from Gina Carano to Emily Blunt apprently up for the role) doing the rounds since it was announced. But the latest rumour surrounding the movie is the most interesting yet, with Latino Review reporting that the role of Carol Danvers, Captain Marvel's alter ego, has already been cast, and we will be seeing her a lot sooner than expected. Say, like, Avengers: Age of Ultron. That soon. This is in keeping with comments that Joss Whedon let slip about there being previously unannounced heroes showing up in the highly anticipated sequel, but I think it is safe to assume »

There isn't much we know about the Marvel Phase Three adventure Captain Marvel quite yet, although director James Gunn revealed earlier this month that the character won't appear in his Guardians of the Galaxy 2 sequel. If a new unconfirmed rumor is true, we may be seeing Captain Marvel much sooner than that anyway. Latino Review's El Mayimbe is reporting that the character has already been cast, and will have a brief cameo appearance in Avengers: Age of Ultron, arriving in theaters May 1. Here's what he had to say below.
"Hot #Marvel #Rumor About #Captainmarvel #Spoiler Apparently, from what I'm being told, the rumor is that the studio has cast the role of Carol Danvers & keeping it top secret. I'm also being told we will first see her in #Avengers #AgeofUltron as originally written in previous drafts of the screenplay. In terms of the standalone film, the Marvel brain trust has »

While Into the Woods has a number of stars--hello, Meryl Streep, Emily Blunt, Chris Pine, and Anna Kendrick--it was Billy Magnussen's leather pants that stole all the attention when the film first opened in December.
"The leather pants were great--Chris is jealous he didn't get to wear them," Magnussen tells ETonline of the costume he wore as Rapunzel's prince opposite of Pine's royal charmer of Cinderella (Kendrick).

"Those pants were so into me," the 29-year-old actor says, expressing an appreciation for the skintight costume. "[Designer Colleen Atwood and I] went through about five different pairs before we got them. It was all about the lunge. We had to be able to do the lunge--that was the stipulation."
The lunge he's referring to happens during the standout duet of "Agony" he performed with Pine. Seen frolicking in the water and ripping their shirts to reveal their sculpted »

Senior Staff Writer Scott Davis looks at this week's big Blu-ray releases in the Us…
The Hobbit: The Battle of the Five Armies
All roads have led to this point, as they say. The final film in both The Hobbit Trilogy and J.R.R. Tolkien adaptations (at least for now), director Peter Jackson bids a fond farewell to Hobbits, Orcs and Wizards alike. Martin Freeman, Ian e, Richard Armitage, Evangeline Lily and Orlando Bloom return amongst the stellar cast, as Bilbo and friends face the final battle to save Middle-earth from the deadly Smaug.
