What others say: Housing starts in September grew at fastest rate since July 2008
While political analysts were happily hashing over Mitt Romney's binders of women and what President Barack Obama did or did not say in the Rose Garden about the Benghazi attack, the U.S, Department of Commerce was issuing a report that will have more to do with the president's re-election than anything said during the debate.
The department announced the morning after the debate that housing starts in September grew at their fastest rate since July 2008. Last year was the lowest on record for new home construction; this year housing starts are up 21 percent, with apartment construction especially strong.
Last month the unemployment rate fell to 7.8 percent from 8.1 percent, breaking the 8 percent barrier for the first time since Obama took office. The jobless rate is symbolically and psychologically important. Voters want to be assured that if they need a job they can find one.
But the housing starts are economically the more important number. In short, there is no economic recovery without a housing recovery, and it looks like Obama has lucked into a full-fledged housing recovery.
The jobless figures can be volatile, and the government is continuously revising them. But all the evidence points to the housing recovery as a trend, not a one-shot aberration but a robust, full-fledged recovery with the potential to pull the broader economy along with it. The National Association of Home Builders expects increases of 26 percent and 30 percent in the next two years.
For one thing, housing permits, a key indicator of future building, jumped 12 percent, to the highest number since the nadir month of July 2008. That number is an annual rate of 894,000, still short of an annual rate of 1.5 million, the benchmark for a truly healthy market.
And the Federal Reserve indicates that mortgages, already at a record low, will stay low and may even go lower.
Major players in the industry were pleased. The National Association of Home Builders called it "good solid evidence" that the recovery was underway. Global economic analyst Dan Greenhaus told the Associated Press, "If there was any doubt that the housing market was undergoing a recovery, even a modest one in the face of the terrible 2008 decline, those doubts should be erased by now." And HIS Global Insight told USA Today that the housing market was registering "blowout numbers."
While sales of existing homes are improving, it's the new homes that boost the economy with each new home being labor intensive to build, creating about three new jobs a year and generating sizable expenditures on the durable goods to furnish them.
Housing created an average of 4.7 percent of GDP and the NAHB expects construction to add more than 10 percent a year.

About this item
In developing the MAG-TAC LED flashlight, Maglite aimed to produce an advanced lighting tool that, in appearance, build quality and performance, would rival tactical flashlights costing several times more. The result is the first Mag flashlight to use extreme-performance CR123 batteries - a rugged, fast-handling, "fist-grabbable" flashlight that achieves truly stunning performance for its size. Thanks to a tailcap switch, it turns on and off without changing the beam's focal setting. Designed with extensive input from military tactical consultants, and yet suitable also for civilian use, this crowned-bezel version of the MAG-TAC flashlight comes with a detachable pocket clip and features 3 modes: Momentary (in which the light stays on only while the switch button is being pressed); Full Power for a dazzling, 320-lumen beam that can light up an object two football fields away; and Strobe for a strobe that can disorient an opponent. Select Functions through the tailcap activated mode switch.
Extremely intense adjustable beam
3 Modes. Momentry, On, and Strobe (12Hz)
Tail cap push button switch
Rugged machined aluminum, anodized inside and out
Limited lifetime warranty
Uses 2 CR123 Batteries, Included.

Listening to the new records by legendary heavy-metal heavies Black Sabbath and their whippersnapping rivals Bonham side by side reminds me of nothing so much as Fiddler on the Roof. Remember the song that goes, "Tradition…tradition"? Although the two bands span an entire generation (Black Sabbath began recording in 1970, when Bonham drummer Jason Bonham, son of Led Zeppelin's John Bonham, was a mere tot of 4), you can barely tell their new works apart. True, Bonham's second outing, Mad Hatter, is a wee bit poppier and faster than Dehumanizer, but that's only to be expected: Almost every band on the planet is poppier and faster than Black Sabbath. In fact, the Sab sounds like it has been influenced by the Seattle smash Soundgarden these days. Bonham's music, on the other hand, is both more commercial and more formulaic. "Ride on a Dream" is a keyboard-heavy piece of pretentiousness that tries to be catchy without being either heavy or melodic. Still, judging by these two works, the heavy-metal world may be the one place in rock where ageism's not a factor, and that's a compliment to both parties.

O'lovely photographer Working Latinas Jan 6, 2008 Olivia O'Lovely
It's good to see you back, fellas. I have o'lovely surprise for you. Literally one of you knows that Olivia O'lovely is a professional photographer with twelve years of experience. She is also Latina originally from Chile. Well this hot mama responded my ad asking if I want to come and videotape her at her work. That day she had a photo session with some male model since she began shooting for some mens fitness magazine. She said that its new for her to work with men, especially hot and muscular ones. The problem is that she gets turned on easily. I invited her to my room for an interview. As she was telling me about her work and all that benefits that come along with it I figured what if she takes a break from taking picture of this guy and have some fun with him. Thats what she did all over the place. Her nice round ass was jumping on his cock up and down. The sex was of the chain and the whole thing went just great. Enjoy!!!

The church of St James, Avebury, Wiltshire, is an old one, with a nave that is part Saxon - it is close by Avebury Manor (see diary) and in a dominant position in the center of this tiny village, which is part of a World Heritage Site. The church dates from around 1000 CE and has had Norman aisles added to the original struture (there are still two Saxon windows high up in the nave). You could say that Christianity was a competing religion in this tiny village at the time the church was founded, as it is likely that veneration of the nearby massive stone circles had continued for some time.
In the church is a splendid example of a tub font, which would have originally been plain, but has been carved in the Romanesque style. Baptism, either of the adult or the infant, has long been considered as one of the seven essential sacraments of the Christian church; indeed, at the Provincial Council of Tribur (in what is now Germany) in 895 CE, it was declared that the 'triple immersion in water' represented the three days spent by Christ in the tomb. Immersion, semi-immersion, affusion (the pouring of water on the head, only) and aspersion (the sprinkling of water) have all been considered valid methods of baptism by various Christian sects at certain times. The sacrament was administered to individuals when they reached adulthood, or even delayed until it was given on the deathbed, only. The practise of the baptism of infants, although now used by many established churches, is rejected by Anabaptists, Hutterites, Pentacostals, and other groups, who consider the infant as being unable to consent, and also not being in a state of sin, and therefore not in need of forgiveness.
There is great debate regarding the dating of this particular font, with some authorities giving an estimate of the 12th century, and others a date of 880-890 CE. I think that the carving may have been added during the 12th century, to the much earlier plain font. The carved wooden font cover is also very pleasing, and it dates from 1941, the very darkest period of World War Two, a time during which any artistic endeavour would have taken a great deal of effort on the part of the individual.
The design carved on the surface of the font appears to be composed of flowing elements, typical of the period, including the figure of a bishop; we can be sure of the churchman's rank as he is carrying a crosier, and he is either being attacked by two wyverns, or is treading on their heads! Some say that the animals are dragons, but the use of wyverns would be most appropriate, as that mythical winged beast is the symbol often used to represent Wessex, the region in which this church stands. It could be that this represents the church's triumph over the primitive religion of the stone circles, which are very close at hand.
Whatever the actual date of the font, it has formed part of village life for around 1,000 years - a most impressive object!

Algoma Central Corporation (Algoma) wins in its dispute with a Chinese shipyard at a London, UK, Arbitration Tribunal.
The tribunal heard the shipbuilding contract dispute involving Algoma Tankers International Inc., a wholly owned subsidiary of Algoma Central Corporation, and found in its favour.
In 2007 the Corporation, through its wholly owned subsidiary, entered into contracts to build three 16,500 - deadweight ton product tankers in China. Each contract contained provisions that permitted cancellation under certain conditions. These conditions were met in 2010 and Algoma accordingly issued notices of rescission to the shipyard seeking to cancel the contracts, and demanding reimbursement of the instalments that had been advanced. The matter was taken to arbitration by the shipyard and hearings were conducted before the Tribunal in London in September, 2012. "We are extremely pleased that the Tribunal agreed with the merits of our claim", said Greg Wight, President and CEO of the Corporation. "We will now proceed to make a formal demand for reimbursement of our instalment payments as provided for under the terms of the contracts." "A lot of effort went into achieving this result," added Duncan Jackman, Chairman of the Board of Directors of Algoma. "I would like to extend my thanks to everyone involved in this for their diligence and hard work." Algoma Central Corporation owns and operates the largest Canadian flag fleet of dry and liquid bulk carriers operating on the Great Lakes - St. Lawrence Waterway.

Online dating is this a bit odd
(51 Posts)Just started online dating. No idea what's normal. It's a long time since I've been on a date was with my stbx husband 15 years. Joined yesterday, got the usual weird and wonderful messages but then one from someone who looks lovely. Asked for my number to arrange date. Is going to call tomorrow but has asked me to dinner at his flat tomorrow. Has just sent another text asking should we dress up. Is this all a bit much for a first date? Don't know what's normal!
RED FLAG He has asked you to go to his flat First meeting should be in a public place And the fact he hasn't thought of this has alarm bells ringing.
I wouldn't go to his flat for a first date. I would suggest meeting in a public place, definitely. If should understand that if he is a decent bloke. Also sounds a bit full on. Better to do a quick coffee or drink, easier to exit if you don't click!
Definitely meet him in a public place and make sure you have safe ways of getting to and from the date. Don't go to his house, you don't know anything about him.
Not normal!It's either very bad or he's a bit dim.
Do not go to his flat!
Don't go to his place on a first date unless you plan to DTD with him.
Even if you do plan to DTD with him meet him in a public place and suss him out first.
A bit odd. I would suggest at least one phone call first, but you must go at a speed that is right for you. If it feels too fast then it is too fast.
Absolute rules you must stick by for first date:
1) meet in public place of your choosing
2) do not tell him where you live
3) do not go to his place
4) do not invite him back to yours
5) tell a friend where you are going/what time you expect to get back
If this guy is genuine then he won't mind waiting, and he certainly won't mind any of the rules above. Be careful.
I don't think I'm going to be very good at this dating business didn't 't want to upset him by saying no. Might suggest quick drink tomorrow when he rings and do the dinner thing when we actually know each other
Don't go into this with the "I don't want to upset him by saying no" idea. If you don't want to do something, say NO.
why worry about upsetting someone you don't even know yet OP.
you have to put yourself - and your safety - first.
hope it works out for you.
I also wouldnt meet at his flat for a first date. Ive invited dates back to mine on a second date but only if i feel comfortable with them. Spend time getting to know him and always let a friend know where you are going.
I presume he means getting your glad rags on for dressing up.....not going as a french maid or the ike, in which case I'd be waving a dozen large red flags!
Good luc...I hope it works out x
This is a bit too full on for a first date for a stranger - Hughfearnly has spelt it all out, I would add have someone available to call for bailout duties should you wish to end the date early (kids sick etc).
When I was online dating I was though in two minds as to wether I would want someone to end the date early, i.e leave me to not waste any more time money on drinks etc and head home etc or continue till last train/orders, leaving me thinking they may be interested as we had an evening out chatting away, but with the disappointment I will later find they not interested.
Do not go to his flat. But more to the point you MUST lose the ' I will go along with things regardless of whether I want to or not for fear of upsetting someone' attitude.
If it were me, the date would be off (completely). How can anyone think inviting you around for dinner at their flat is normal? As for dressing up (even if you were meeting in public)- I'd prefer someone to be able to make their own decision on how they'd dress. Wouldn't occur to me to ask because I always insist on being scruffy
Just be honest about it. "No sorry I'm not interested in a date anymore. I am very uncomfortable that you would think it appropriate to have a first date in your own ir my own home." At least if he's not a right strange one he will know better for the next woman, then.
Yup, I tended to do 1st date coffee or a drink (can make it quick if it's dreadful), 2nd date dinner out, 3rd date something we both wanted to do - mutual hobby, cinema trip or dinner at someone's house.
I second the advise above to meet in a public place and let someone know where you'll be and that you'll text when you are safely home.
Yes - what Doinmummy says ^^
Don't even think about going to a private space with a man you do not know.
Keep first dates public.
Never fear upsetting someone if you have to. If you value your personal safety, it's something you have to learn to do.
no, no, no!....That is absolutely not normal.
You should always meet in a public place first time ... also, don't think as it as a first 'date', you are just meeting him. 'dates' are what you start to have when you know you like the other person. You've not even spoken to the guy yet.
You (or he) could meet and not find anything interesting/attractive/likeable in the other. There are also sadly lots if loons in the internet , scarily how hard it is to pick them out from the crowd by messages alone. I saw someone for a few weeks before discovering he'd given me a fake name (yep, married)
he is either;
- desperate to get his legover
- a crazed serial killer, or
- hopelessly inexperienced!
if he is lovely, and I do hope he is, he will respect you for taking care of yourself.
Onmyown You'd be more than welcome to come over to the Dating Thread. Lots of other people's experience for you to draw on over there!
I used to meet in a public place and only give myself an hour. I used to meet for a first date in the daytime always, and in a well populated public place. I also used to get as much info as I could about them (full name, email address, phone number, OD name and any other significant info I'd gleaned from them such as where they lived/worked) and give it to my brother. I also texted him when I arrived and then made an excuse to go to the loo about 10 mins into the date so I could text my brother and let him know it was ok. And then I would text him again as I was leaving.
I didn't do that for more than the first few first 'dates' I went on, because after that I was more confident in both my judgement and my ability to walk away if something wasn' 'right'.
But I agree that the first meeting is not a real date. It's a quick 1 hour lunchtime coffee to see if their OL persona matches their RL one and to see if you want to go on a date with them. It's not a 'date' in itself.
What he is trying to arrange is a shag. Especially if you only joined yesterday and he asked you for your number and tried arranging this on the first day of messaging you.
Remember what we tell children about stranger danger. Don't go anywhere with a stranger. Good people know that children are told not to go anywhere with people they don't know so will be ok if you say "no" to something. If they are not ok with it, then they aren't a good person. It's more important that you keep yourself safe than it is you don't do something just to avoid upsetting someone who is asking you to do something they know they shouldn't be asking you to do in the first place.
We learn these rules as children so that we can keep ourselves safe throughout our lives. The rules don't change
OD can be a lot of fun though! Stick with it, but you owe these men nothing but common courtesy. Don't forget that.
Excellent post folk you've said it all brilliantly
Thanks for wise advice and folkgirl I will join you on the dating thread and update! Have texted him and made excuses and suggested quick drink instead. Going to have to lose the worrying about offending people mentality!
Aw thanks, Santa
Onmyown You will have to stop worrying about it, yes!
I treated it as a way of getting back 'out there' and flexing my dating muscles (was in a similar position to you) rather than as a means to finding a boyfriend/partner and went out with some men I'd never have met otherwise. I really pushed myself outside my 'comfort zone'. It was fab.
Listen to Folkgirl, she is very wise.
You just meet the guy briefly somewhere public! If you went to his place, how could you escape if he turned weird?
You can usually tell within seconds if the person you are meeting is your type/'normal'/someone worth getting to know a bit better. You can also tell if they are absolutely not your type/odd/someone you don't want to spend 5 minutes with. Always have a quick exit strategy.
I can't believe you would consider going to a stranger's house, however polite you are!
didn't 't want to upset him by saying no
Unless you do lose this mentality then you are not safe to be dating, online or otherwise.

Ribeira Sacra (Ourense)

In the Northwest of Spain, there is a region called Galicia. There are a lot of places with shadows, mysteries and a lot of magic … One of these quiet and hide-and-seek places are by two rivers called "Sil" and "Miño", in the provinces of Lugo and Ourense. The name of "Ribeira Sacra" means Sacred Riverbank in English.
From centuries ago, the monks and hermits came to lead an ascetic life (a sacred life, of course). They were alone, then, they cultivate vine (I suppose, the soul was more happy with vine …). The vines grow by his two rock faces and makes it different than the rest of the vine zones. There are centenaries chestnut trees too. Some mountains grows at both sides of the river. The river "Sil" is navigable along 40 km, by tourist boats.
This part of Galicia contains a lot of little castles, churches, bridges. This was the Roman Empire's western frontier. "Finisterre" (Finnis Terrae, to the romans) is in Galicia, near here.
A very calm place, I´m sure …

OMG this is AWESOME! At first I failed to notice the figure but now I see - it's genious! Also lots of pretty foxes!
Lovely foxes, plus a clever use of negative space. It took me a second to figure out why there was a blank shape with no foxes! The picture matches the myth so well.

Parent anger at bus fee hike
Bus travel fee hikes of up to $800 per child have angered parents.
February 27, 2013 4:34amNewly introduced school bus travel fees of up to $800 per child have angered Kyabram and district parents.
Students who bypass one school to attend another school of like are now required to pay to travel on a bus.
Parents received letters from the convening school — Kyabram P-12 College — in January informing them of the outcome of a review of bus services at Kyabram undertaken by Public Transport Victoria last year.
The review revealed there were 113 students using public transport for free when they were not entitled to.
The letter came as shock to Stanhope mother-of-two Rachel O'Brien who returned from a family holiday in Queensland to learn she must pay almost $1600 for her two sons to travel on a bus to Kyabram P-12 College.
Mrs O'Brien said the school informed her last year that she would not be billed for the travel after initially paying for her eldest son to travel on the bus the first year of high school.
"I thought I'd won the lottery," she said.
"Now I've got no idea how I'll be able to come up with the funds.
"My children catch the bus to what I think is the most decent school closest to me which is located 16
"My eldest son chose the school, and he's really happy there.
"I don't know how we're going to come up with the money."
Kim Andrews, whose children catch the bus at the same stop, said she too was unhappy with the situation.
"This is just another way of extracting more money from already struggling families trying to provide an education for their children," she said.
"Obviously the free education tag went missing along with the choice of schools we wish to send our children to," she said.
Jenni Serra's three sons also travel on the bus to St Augustine's P-12 College.
She is expected to pay for her youngest son Morrie to use the bus because he is bypassing the nearest Catholic school at Rushworth.
"We have decided to send Morrie to St Augustine's because we thought it would be easier for his transition into Year 7," Mrs Serra said.
"I'd like somebody to explain to myself and my husband how sending one child to one school and two to another school in a different town is helping them enjoy their schooling years."
Kyabram P-12 College principal Stuart Bott said it was the snowball effect he feared most.
"If we lost some families because of this, we may lose teachers, and then who knows what might happen?"
Mr Bott said he invites concerned parents to meet with him to discuss their situation.
He said he could offer a ''solution''.
He was not prepared to relate to the Free Press just what that solution was.

Chiefs in damage control
SCO executive to run operation during probe
A day after the Southern Chiefs Organization showed its leader the door with a paid suspension, it had yet to declare how it planned to track the paper trail that led to the spending scandal in the first place.
By late Tuesday, the five-member executive committee that functions as the board for the lobby group was still behind closed doors, debating steps to salvage the organization's tattered reputation.
The executive is taking over the day-to-day operation, perhaps with the help of a management team of some sort, until an investigation into the scandal is complete. That probe could be wrapped up as early as the weekend, reporters were told Tuesday.
SCO Grand Chief Murray Clearsky began his first day of paid suspension keeping a low profile, not taking calls, despite an earlier promise to give a full public account. He's said to be following a lawyer's advice to stay quiet.
Clearsky is accused of spending $10,000 of the SCO's money in a series of ATM withdrawals in Shakopee and Prior Lake, Minn., where the Mystic Lake Casino and a popular amusement park are located.
The trips were in August and September.
Clearsky's chief of staff, Mike Bear, was also suspended with pay but for different reasons. He faces a sexual-harassment complaint now under investigation by the Canadian Human Rights Commission.
The allegations against both men have yet to be proven, which explains why they're still being paid and not out the door completely, one political analyst said Tuesday.
The SCO represents 33 chiefs in southern Manitoba.
Jacqueline Romanow, an associate professor at the University of Winnipeg's aboriginal governance program, called the penalty against Bear reasonable.
The penalty against Clearsky isn't as cut and dried, she said.
"It would depend on the strength of the evidence they're looking at," she said. "I'm assuming they asked for an initial explanation and it was insufficient."
Clearsky made two appearances before the chiefs Monday night, declaring he intended to give a full account. Before the meeting, the leader told the Free Press he was convinced the chiefs had authorized an ATM debit card to make direct withdrawals on the SCO bank account while in Minnesota on the two trips in August and September.
For most of the seven hours the chiefs debated his fate, the grand chief cooled his heels outside the Victoria Inn.
Clearsky kept company the whole time with an SCO accountant, a lawyer and the chief of staff.
The accountant acknowledged a heavy canvas bag on his shoulder contained the evidence Clearsky intended to present to clear his name. He never got that chance because the chiefs didn't asked to see it. "You hang in there," said one chief, patting the man on the shoulder and offering a friendly handshake when the line of chiefs filed out the door at the end.
It was clear some chiefs were upset with the outcome. Long Plain's Dennis Meeches and Swan Lake's Francine Meeches both walked out of the meeting just before it wrapped up.
Francine Meeches was visibly angry when she strode past the waiting meeting. Asked for her comment, she turned and faced reporters. She felt embarrassed, she said.
"It's a... joke what's going on in there," she said, "the way they're hemming and hawing in there."
Dennis Meeches said he got nowhere with Clearsky during his appearances. "I asked him to resign. He didn't give me an answer though."
Romanow said that is a strong indication the two chiefs are aware their political organization is under a dark cloud.
"Is everybody happy?" she asked. "No. Some chiefs are really upset and they want the grand chief to resign. There are going to be a lot of questions until they give an explanation (in public).
"Chiefs in these situations have a lot of power and you have to make sure you have checks and safeguards through your executive or that your financial officer does."
Romanow said it's unheard of for a chief to be handed an ATM card.
Typically, aboriginal politicians, like other politicians, file expenses or are requisitioned a cheque in advance for business trips.

Genesis Coupe Drift Car Heist from Hyundai Headquarters featuring Rhys Millen About two weeks before the wrecking ball was about to completely demolish our old Hyundai Motor America headquarters building in Fountain Valley, California, we had a crazy thought: Wouldn't it be cool to do something outrageous inside the building before all the walls finally came down? Actually, it was Dustin Loranger, one of our Service Technicians, who had the idea...and we loved it. Why not put Rhys Millen, his Genesis Coupe drift car, and our abandoned HQ together for a unique drift demonstration in a unique industrial setting? Rhys was up for the challenge, and remarkably, so were our lawyers, so we put this thing together, with tongue (and donut) firmly planted in cheek. We think the video does a pretty good job showcasing Rhys' car control skills, the sweetness of the Genesis Coupe drift car, and the reason why Hollywood probably doesn't have to worry, just yet, about this cast and crew. ;) How'd we do?
SEMA Drag Race: Hellcat vs Blasphemi vs Jeep FC vs Sonic! - 2014 SEMA Week Ep. 5 We've reached the final day of 2014 SEMA Week brought to you by 76, and only we would dare to bring this ridiculous mix of vehicles together for a grudge race on an unprepped airport runway. Fred Williams, Jessi Lang, Mike Sabounchi and Mike Finnegan begged and bribed SEMA Show exhibitors to loan them vehicles for a ¼ mile drag race and, though Finnegan and Sabounchi failed, the group still managed to acquire a Jeep riding on tank treads, a fresh-off-the-floor 2015 Dodge Challenger Hellcat, the infamous Hemi-powered '55 Chevy Bel Air from Roadkill, and a turbocharged 2013 Chevy Sonic to do battle. The racers are as different as the cars. Finnegan lives in the world of hot rods, Lang regularly pilots the best the OEM carmakers have to offer, Williams spends all of his time in the dirt, and Sabounchi hops up every compact car on the planet. Who will come out on top? Watch and find out! Catch the full week of 2014 SEMA programming December 1st through December 5th with a new video premiering each day!

2012 Chevrolet Sonic Review and 0-60 MPH Drive ( http://www.TFLcar.com ) For 2012 Chevrolet has completely redesigned and even renamed the Chevy Aveo. The small Chevrolet economy car is now the brand new Chevy Sonic. The old Aveo was really a rebadged Korean that is now a bad memory in the minds of many car reviewers. So of course the obvious question is has General Motors come out of the corner swinging with a brand new Chevrolet Sonic that can take on the likes of the very popular Honda Fit, Ford Fiesta, and of course the very similar KIA Rio. Check out this 0 to 60 MPH review of the 2012 Chevrolet Sonic to find out.
Sonic Stock vs Trifecta Tune 1.4L turbo Sonic stock tune pull and trifecta tune pull.
2014 Chevrolet Sonic Review by Automotive Trends http://automotivetrends.com GM's been enjoying much improved sales results the last few years and a big driver of that has been the newfound competitiveness in its car lineup. Chevrolet now has a strong entry at every level from the ity bity Spark to the downright handsome Impala and it's been far too long since we've been able to declare that. We just got a crack at the 5-door Sonic and while no one will be using phrases like "downright handsome" to describe it, we found a lot to like about the little Michigan-made Chevy. First is the excellent 1.4-liter turbo that delivers a stout 148 lb-ft of torque at a very useable 2,500 rpm and manages to earn 29 mpg city and 40 mpg highway. We liked the 6-speed manual that delivered rewarding shifts and smooth clutch engagement. Just like we noted in the Spark the technology offered at this price point continues to impress. Our $20,405 tester featured a backup camera, bluetooth, lane departure and forward collision alert systems, satellite radio and the touch-screen MyLink system for easily controlling compatible iPhone apps like navigation and Pandora. We would ask Chevy to bring back some simple volume and tuning knobs. We found the Sonic commendably quiet with a comfortable ride quality and impressive responses considering this wasn't even a sport-oriented RS model. The seats were very comfortable and nicely bolstered and the driving position was spot on with no sense that this was an economy car. Our particular tester featured a selection of dealer-installed accessories like black wheels and a cat back Borla Exhaust that might appeal to young buyers that make up a big part of this car's target audience but certainly aren't needed. With solid ergonomics, a willing powertrain and no glaring penalties for choosing one of their smallest cars, a Chevy showroom should be high on your list when shopping in this segment.

Rob Dyrdek Flips Chevy Sonic It's a car stunt that would have impressed Evil Kenievel and saved James Bond! Watch as daredevil skateboarder Rob Dyrdek drives a Chevrolet Sonic like a skateboard!

This is Chevy's third in a series of outrageous stunts for their new sub-compact Sonic.

2013 Chevrolet Sonic RS First Drive Review & 0-60 MPH Test ( http://www.TFLcar.com ) The 2013 Chevrolet Sonic RS is a small turbo-charged pocket rocket that's fun to drive. But is it faster than the Sonic turbo? That's a question that we answer in this first drive review as we drive, test and review the new RS version of the Sonic turbo in San Francisco. Of course we don't just drive the new Sonic RS, we also put it to the the TFLcar real world test 0-60 MPH test. So how fast is the new Sonic RS 0-60 MPH? Watch this video to find out.

JOHN LENNON Afterlife Communication Channeled by Solana
in Spirituality
TONIGHT- Medium & Channeler SOLANA channels John Lennon in the afterlife. Join us for this celebration and Q&A of one of the most beloved men in our history, Mr. John Lennon.
The killing, on Dec. 8, 1980, marked a major social shift
John Lennon's death 34 years ago today triggered the same shock and outpouring of grief as the assassinations of Martin Luther King, Jr. and John F. Kennedy. So wrote critic Jay Cocks for his 1980 TIME cover story about the legacy of the late Beatle and his death by the hands of Mark David Chapman. The touching tribute — comments from Bruce Springsteen that are included in the piece may bring tears to your eyes — featured one memorable quote from Lennon's wife, Yoko Ono: "This is not the end of an era," she said in the days after he was killed. "The '80s are still going to be a beautiful time, and John believed it."
But in his piece, Cocks makes the case for why Ono's words were more wishful thinking than a truthful declaration.
The band had broken up a decade before, but Lennon's death signaled a shift more serious than the Beatles' dissolution ever did. After all, the music of the Beatles would be around indefinitely, whether or not the band continued to record together.
When Lennon died at age 40, however, everyone who had grown up with the Beatles was approaching middle age too. In addition to their sadness about Lennon's death, they could not ignore their own mortality. "For everyone who cherished the sustaining myth of the Beatles," Cocks wrote, "the murder was something else. It was an assassination, a ritual slaying of something that could hardly be named. Hope, perhaps; or idealism. Or time. Not only lost, but suddenly dislocated, fractured."
The Beatles Most Unappreciated Songs
in Pop Culture
Dr. Kit O'Toole, author of the upcoming book Michael Jackson FAQ is Kit; Jude Southerland Kessler, author of The John Lennon Series (http://www.johnlennonseries.com), is Kaboodle. And together they're the powerhouse team of Kit and Kaboodle who meet bi-monthly via The John Lennon Hour to discuss any topic in the realm of Beatles music and/or biographies. Tonight they'll consider the topic of Most Unappreciated Beatles songs. Why are these songs so overlooked? What do the critics say about these selections? And is there any reason that listeners should give these tunes another glance (or ear)? Tune in to the second "Kit and Kaboodle Show" of 2015 and find out. Fun and informative...that's Kit and Kaboodle. And be sure to visit the Official Kit and Kaboodle Fan Page on Facebook and "like" us.

DEFINITION of 'Vintage'
A slang term used by mortgage-backed securities (MBS) traders and investors to refer to an MBS that is seasoned over some time period. MBSs typically have maturities around 30 years, and a particular issue's 'vintage' will expose the holder to less prepayment and default risk, although this decreased risk also limits price appreciation.
INVESTOPEDIA EXPLAINS 'Vintage'
The underlying loans of certain vintage MBSs have unique characteristics, such as burnout, that make the vintage trade at a premium price. These unique characteristics are a result of how underlying assets in MBS are pooled. Most MBSs pool the underlying assets across certain geographical regions with similar terms to maturity and interest rates. This makes forecasting payment plans more predictable.
