The West Point Green Wave football team is used to playing rematches.
Last year during the playoffs, it was West Point and New Hope locking up for the second time in the 2009 season, and it was the Green Wave who prevailed in both the regular season meeting and the aforementioned post-season match up.
The 2010 season began with a rematch between West Point and Shannon, this time with the Green Wave playing the role of the avenger, angry for their only 2009 blemish.

A kid throws the basketball up to the hoop, sinking it into the net that stands seven feet off the ground. Time doesn't stop, the normally two-point shot is not recorded and a member of the opposing comes up and gives a high five to the scorer.
It doesn't sound like the everyday youth basketball game, but that's how it's done in the Upward Sports League, a youth sports ministry that has been serving West Point for five years.

It was the Tupelo Lady Wave who triumphed with a 64-47 win over West Point.

The price is unbelievable and it arrived safely and quickly. The bottle is beautiful. The scent matures accentuating different aromas at different times. There are few perfumes that I can wear and I normally wear perfume with more spice. This is an alluring fragrance that both men and women appreciate. When people walk into the room, they do not care to leave!

Well to be perfectly honest I am a perfume nut and this fragrance is truly fit for a queen; it literally took my breath away. Not only does it have the flowery notes but it also has the new more modern fruity scents for a perfect combination of what I would call exquisite, 5 star, 2 thumbs up call it what you may but it definantly made the grade and then some in my book.. I would recommend this fragrance to everyone. It is my new signature fragrance and prior to I swore by Insolence (Guerlain).

Great product/perfume.. Wife loved it..first came across this perfume in Scotland very expensive for a small bottle. Great deal and will buy other products from this site thank you...
Written by Drew on November 10, 2013Read Review details ►
This scent is so layered and complex, it's hard to pick a single classification. My iniital impression is light and flowery, but as you continue to evaluate it, you pick up citrus and light earthy (think fresh mown grass) tones. I wear Love in Black in the winter and wanted something 'fresher' for spring and summer. This is perfect.

CARSON, Calif. – Major League Soccer has fined LA Galaxy head coach Bruce Arena 2,000 dollars for his public criticism of the officials following LA's 3-3 draw with FC Dallas last week.
In the latest edition of View from the Booth, Joe Tutino and I discuss the LA Galaxy's match with Real Salt Lake.
Check it out below...
CARSON, Calif. -- There's been tons of Omar Gonzalez Designated Player content churned out at LAGalaxy.com and on LA Galaxy Insider today, so I've decided to create a nifty page to place all of the stories in one place.
* My commentary on what Gonzalez's deal means for the Galaxy, MLS and U.S. National Team.
*In this piece from the press conference, Gonzalez talks about the ability to continue his "dream" career with the Galaxy.
* Gonzalez's LA Galaxy teammates were pleased with the club rewarding Gonzalez and Landon Donovan admitted that the defender's signing may have a great impact on American soccer.
* During Gonzalez's press conference, AEG President and CEO Dan Beckerman stated that "Omar is the Galaxy."
*Now that Gonzalez has been locked up to a DP deal, the Galaxy are turning their focus to keeping Landon Donovan at the StubHub Center for years to come.
*With the World Cup just a year away, talks will soon heat about about MLS players going on offseason loans abroad, but Galaxy President Chris Klein says those will be handed on a "case by case basis."
*ESPN's Marc Stein gave the low down on just how long Gonzalez will be with LA and how much he'll be making.
*Lastly, you can check out the highlights from Gonzalez's press conference as well as the "sizzle" highlight video created following his signing below.
CARSON, Calif. -- We know Omar Gonzalez is the LA Galaxy's third Designated Player, but now we may now how long he'll remain with the Galaxy.
ESPN's Matt Stein reported on Thursday that Gonzalez's deal is for 1.5 million a year for the next three seasons. A source confirmed to LA Galaxy Insider that Gonzalez's deal is in fact for three seasons.
The tweet by Stein is below...
Hearing new Omar Gonzalez deal w/ @lagalaxy will pay him in excess of $1.5 million annually for next three seasons. Nice bump from $282,000
— Marc Stein (@ESPNSteinLine) August 16, 2013
Any LA Galaxy offseason loans to be decided on a "case by case basis" says Galaxy President Chris Klein
CARSON, Calif. – Omar Gonzalez may have signed his deal with the LA Galaxy, but for as long as he plays in MLS, talk of his need to "test himself" in Europe will persist.
With Gonzalez signing multi-year deal with the team, he'll be a member of LA for the foreseeable future, but what is to stop the 24-year-old center back from going on an offseason loan. There's plenty of precedent for these types of moves as over the past four years Landon Donovan, Robbie Keane, David Beckham, and even Gonzalez himself have gone on loans.
The defender was not asked explicitly about the prospect of a future loan, but Galaxy President Chris Klein appeared to note that the team will decide that on a case by case basis.
Quite honestly, our league season continues to get longer rand longer. We never right anything off, but that becomes a decision that Bruce looks into in their preparation for the season. I know one thing, we certainly look at our league season as a priority and we think that players can prepare for a World Cup or other things by playing in our league. We take it on a case by case basis."
CARSON, Calif. – The LA Galaxy locked down their third Designated Player on Thursday with the signing of Omar Gonzalez, but they'll likely have to lock down one of their three DP's later this year when Landon Donovan's contract expires.
The Galaxy forward has stated that he is hoping to remain happy wherever he is next year, and both LA head coach and general manager Bruce Arena as well as President Chris Klein have stated that talks have gone on between both parties.
"Landon is the Galaxy. We want to keep him here, we've made no secret about that," said Klein. "Everyone knows that his contract is up at the end of the year and we hope his recent form continues."
With Seattle Sounders FC's splashing the cash to sign Donovan's national team teammate Clint Dempsey, much of the talk on the Galaxy's bid to keep the U.S. international has centered on matching or surpassing that offer.
"We'll see. I would say that Landon is one of the most important players in league history," Klein said when asked if LA would need to match or exceed Dempsey's deal. "Definitely the best American player ever to play and we want him to stay with the Galaxy."
At 31-years-old, Donovan has already accomplished plenty in MLS as he has won five titles and is currently closing in on the league's all-time goal scoring and assist records. Regardless of his sterling resume, Klein believes that he has plenty left to accomplish with the Galaxy.
"Landon has always bucked conventional wisdom. We want to keep him here and we think that he has a lot to do in an LA Galaxy uniform," said Klein. "Not to say that he hasn't accomplished an incredible amount, but knowing him like I do, I think that he's driven for more. Where he personally is, I don't know, but we'd certainly like to have him here."
In case you missed it, the complete Omar Gonzalez Designated Player press conference can be found below.
CARSON, Calif. – AEG President and CEO Dan Beckerman has been mostly a behind the scenes presence since taking the position weeks ago, but the executive was on the podium on Thursday when the Galaxy announced the deal to sign Omar Gonzalez as the club's third Designated Player.
In statement's Beckerman was blunt when discussing Gonzalez's impact with LA, bluntly stating that "Omar is the Galaxy."
"Omar had opportunities all over the world, but he chose to stay here with the Galaxy and that's a significant milestone for us. It really validates everything that we want to be as a league. We always want to be a league of choice and more importantly, it establishes us as the team of choice, which has always been our mission as the Galaxy.
As for what it means for AEG, who have developed a reputation for signing big name players since acquiring the team in 2008, signing Gonzalez was a major boost.
"It's critically important to have Omar join the ranks of Landon Donovan, Robbie Keane and David Beckham, and be an American player at that level is critical for the success of the team. We want to have world class international players on our team, period. Whether they come from the U.S., abroad or wherever, we want to have the best players with the Galaxy as a Designated Player…We want the best players wherever they come from."
CARSON, Calif. -- It's official.
Omar Gonzalez is the LA Galaxy's third Designated Player.
The Galaxy announced on Thursday that the 24-year-old center back has been signed to a DP contract allowing him to become the first defender signed to such a contract. Drafted by the Galaxy with the third overall selection in 2009 MLS SuperDraft from the University of Maryland, Gonzalez has made 119 regular season appearances for LA -- 118 of them starts. During his time with LA, Gonzalez has racked up the honors as he was named the 2009 Rookie of the Year, 2011 MLS Defender of the Year, and 2012 MLS Cup Final MVP while also being named to the MLS Best XI twice.
Gonzalez is the fifth DP in Galaxy history and joins David Beckham, Landon Donovan, Juan Pablo Angel and Robbie Keane. He is also the sixth American DP joining Donovan, Clint Dempsey, Freddy Adu, Claudio Reyna, and Chris Wondolowski.

Professional Referee Organization responds to questions on offside calls in LA Galaxy and FC Dallas draw
Before we focus on the excitment of the new LA Galaxy third Designated Player that will be unveiled later today, the Professional Referee Organization took a look a the two "offside" goals conceded by the Galaxy in their 3-3 draw with FC Dallas.
PRO's Training and Development manager Paul Rejer took a look at both goals during the organization's "Play of the Week."
First up was the goal scored by Blas Perez in the 48th minute, Rejer was quick to agree that Perez was offside from the moment that Dallas midfielder Michel took the kick.
"Blas Perez of Dallas was in an offside position when the first free-kick was taken, the AR Kevin Duliba should have been aware of this as offside is his number one priority and focus," Rejer said. "As soon as the kicker plays the ball, the AR should focus on the offside player. Then, as in this case, as soon as he plays the ball he is interfering with play. Therefore, the goal should have been disallowed."
Rejer applied the same scrutiny to Perez's second goal in the 86th minute and came up with the same result.
"Later in the game, George John of Dallas is in an offside position from a free-kick," Rejer said. "When the delivery came over he made a challenge for the ball and, at this point, the AR raised his flag for offside - this time for interfering with an opponent. Using the very same process he should have been aware of the offside player from the outset and concentrated on him and raised the flag when he became active."
Thoughts on PRO's statements? Glad that they admit that the goals should have been disallowed? Expect Kevin Duliba to serve as an Assistant Referee again?

Enjoy our Duchy from Waitrose range
By choosing Duchy from Waitrose, you can enjoy delicious, great quality organic food and drink, while helping to preserve our food heritage and support charities.
At Waitrose, we've worked hard to perfect our recipes and track down fantastic food and drink which has been sustainably made.
Choosing organic is easy with Waitrose
There are hundreds of tempting Duchy from Waitrose products to enjoy, from everyday items such as milk, biscuits, cheese, tea, preserves and beef to favourite treats such as scones, chocolate thins, ice cream, cider and ales.
Duchy Originals was founded on a belief that every product we sell 'tastes good, is good and does good'. This ethos is set out in our Good Food Charter, a series of commitments that underpin everything we do. It's this same charter that guides our Duchy from Waitrose range. Together, we believe in the value of organic food, grown and produced sustainably. It's a pleasure we can all enjoy.
Is Good
A smaller environmental footprint as a result of more locally sourced, seasonal ingredients, and less packaging and other waste.
We aim to source as many of our ingredients as we can from the UK and to only source fish from sustainable sources.
Tastes Good
Made from delicious organic and natural ingredients, using sound animal husbandry and traditional crop rotation.
We insist that all products and suppliers are certified to international recognised organic standards, including the Soil Association (except where organic certification is not feasible, like honey and water).
We never use artificial flavourings, colours or hydrogenated vegetable oil. We do not support the use of genetically-modified organisms. All our meat comes from animals that range freely and live an outdoor life.
Does Good
Provides a fair deal for the people who grow and make the food and generates funds for good causes.
A royalty from the sale of Duchy from Waitrose products is given to The Prince of Wales's Charitable Foundation. Almost £3m is raised annually in this way for distribution to charitable causes, of which £75,000 goes to The Prince's Countryside Fund. (charity no 1136077). We want the people who supply us to earn a fair return on the commitments they make to produce a superior product. Organic farming preserves hedgerow habitats and wildlife food sources by avoiding chemicals in the soil and ground water. This protects wildlife and promotes biodiversity.

Washington Capitals (17-12-2) at Florida Panthers (10-17-5), 7:30 p.m.
(SportsNetwork.com) - The streaking Washington Capitals will try to continue their dominance of the Florida Panthers when they stop in Sunrise for a clash at the BB&T Center.
The Capitals have won three straight heading into Friday's battle and hope to push that streak to four games with a ninth consecutive win in this series against Florida.
Washington is 8-0 versus the Panthers since Florida last won a game in this series on Feb. 1, 2012 at the BB&T Center. The Caps also have claimed three in a row and seven of the last 11 meetings in South Florida.
Alex Ovechkin exploded for four goals in Washington's most recent game, a thrilling 6-5 comeback win Tuesday against Tampa Bay that was eventually decided in a shootout.
Ovechkin's fourth marker of the night tied the game with 32.4 seconds remaining in regulation and placed his league-leading total at 26 goals this season.
Troy Brouwer posted the game-winner in the shootout for Washington, which trailed 3-0 in the first period of the home game against the Lightning. The Caps also were behind 5-4 in the closing minutes of regulation before Ovechkin sent the test to overtime.
Ovechkin's efforts, along with a one-goal, four-assist performance from Nicklas Backstrom, enabled the Capitals to notch their fifth win in six outings.
"We've been in this situation before," said Ovechkin. "I think we were down 3-1 versus Detroit (a 4-3 shootout win on Nov. 15) after the second period, and I'm sure everybody knows we have lots of time left and we just have to take one at a time. The second goal by Nicky was huge, and we just felt we can come back and we can win the game."
Philipp Grubauer aided Washington's cause by stopping 32-of-34 shots after relieving an ineffective Braden Holtby, who let up three Tampa Bay goals on just eight chances before being pulled just after the 11-minute mark.
Holtby expects to start on Friday after his brief appearance on Tuesday. He is 5-0 with a 2.40 goals against average in five career outings -- four starts -- against the Panthers.
Another win on Friday would allow Washington to tie its longest winning streak of the season. The Caps previously won four in a row from Nov. 1-7.
Washington is only 6-5-2 as the road team this season, and beginning with tonight's test, the Caps are set to play three of their next four games as the guest.
Florida, meanwhile, is capping a two-game homestand on Friday after beating Detroit for the second time in less than a week with Tuesday's home shootout win against the Red Wings.
Brad Boyes scored the game-winner in the shootout to lift the Panthers to a 3-2 victory over the Red Wings. It was the third victory in four games for Florida, which also notched a 2-1 regulation win in Detroit on Saturday.
Sean Bergenheim and Nick Bjugstad scored third-period goals to tie the game for the Panthers on Tuesday and Tim Thomas made 24 saves in the triumph.
"It's a good win. It's good to contribute, whichever way I can," Boyes said. "If shootout is the way to do it, I'm happy with that."
The Panthers are 6-7-3 as the host this season compared to a 4-10-2 mark on the road. Following tonight's home game, Florida will head out on a four-game swing, beginning with Sunday's tilt in Montreal.

Cat Increased Thirst
Cat Increased Thirst
The medical term for an excessive thirst is polydipsia. An excessive intake of water will lead to Cat Increased Urination which is known as polyuria. There are several diseases that either or both of these conditions can indicate.
1. Cat Renal Failure and/or Cat Kidney Disease, which can be chronic or acute. Usually this is acute. Pyelonephritis is another abnormality of the kidneys.
2. The loss of chemicals and salts that will assist with re-absorption of the water.
3. Cat Diabetes mellitus
5. An infection of the uterus
7. Increased calcium levels in the blood
8. Diabetes insipidus. This is a disease that affects the kidneys ability to reabsorb the water intake effectively.
9. Pituitary disease
10. A psychological disorder that leads to compulsive consumption of water.
A 10 pound cat will consume about 1 ½ cups of liquid a day. This will include that which is in canned cat food. If there is a considerable amount more than that, it could be polydipsia. If the weather is extremely hot, or your home is hot, the excess water consumption may be due to that.
If you notice more wet cat litter, or the cat begins drinking from a dripping faucet, caution should be used. Try to eliminate all liquid sources except the dish until you can determine if your cat is drinking too much water. If you see that he is, an appointment with your veterinarian is definitely in order.
The first test that your veterinarian will perform will be a specific gravity. If the specific gravity is less than 1.035, there is a good chance that your cat has polyuria, that is the first test that will be done. If it proves to be outside the normal limits, other examinations will be done.
Your vet will do a complete physical. The abdomen will be checked to determine if there is any occurrence of Cat Swollen Abdomen or an enlargement of the liver or kidneys. If your cat is an un-spayed female, she will also be checked for any vaginal discharge. The thyroid gland will also be felt to see if there are any abnormalities.
Most of these will require blood tests. Thyroid profiles, hormone measurements, creatinine clearance and blood urea nitrogen will be checked.
You will be asked for a complete history of events. Your vet will have any medications that have been administered on record. Have you been feeding your cat extra salt in their food or table scraps? Is your cat having accidents in your home? Does the urine look strange or have a foul odor? Has her the weight changed significantly? All of these signs can be caused by some underlying disease process.
While polidipsia may not be serious and may be due to environmental changes, tests for the underlying diseases will dictate the type of treatment required.
Diabetes mellitus, liver failure or kidney failure as well as high blood calcium can be a medical emergency. Increased calcium must be treated expeditiously with intravenous fluids and water pills.
At Home Care
Monitor the amount of water your cat drinks. If there are any changes in urine output, your vet should be notified. Successful treatment of polydipsia depends on the disease process or environmental conditions that are present.

CONCORD – The absence of Dale Earnhardt Jr. led to a progression of realizations about NASCAR, Charlotte Motor Speedway, the Earnhardt family and the Tarheel State.
The Bank of America 500 marked the first Cup race without an Earnhardt in the field since the Southern 500 at Darlington Raceway on Sept. 3, 1979, which was won by the driver, David Pearson, who substituted for the injured Dale Earnhardt.
It was also the first NASCAR race without a North Carolinian in the field since a race at Ascot Stadium in Los Angeles on May 27, 1961. In those days, NASCAR sometimes sanctioned conflicting races in different parts of the country. That race was on the same weekend as Charlotte's World 600.
How interesting, and more than a little sad to some, that the first race in 51 years without a North Carolina native in the field was … actually in North Carolina.
Almost surely, it was the first time a major NASCAR event was ever held in North Carolina without a North Carolinian competing.
Bahama native Scott Riggs failed to make the field. Another possibility would have been Thomasville's Brian Vickers, who sometimes drives the No. 55 Toyota in which Mark Martin started on the front row Saturday night.
What will they not do? CMS is known for going where no track has gone before, as proven over the years by lights, condos and, most recently, the gigantic video board.
One of Saturday night's innovations was a "family broadcast" of the race on a scanner frequency. It was really sort of a kids' broadcast, since the PRN radio crew was by no means R-rated.
The broadcast featured Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles, as well as teen-aged children of several drivers, crew chiefs and broadcasters. Also participating was a 14-year-old driver, Gray Gaulding.
Tight rope indeed – Nik Wallenda, who walked a tightrope over Niagara Falls earlier this year, made a descent from an upper grandstand to pit road "as the crow flies." For a descendant of the famed "Flying Wallendas" it wasn't, uh, much of a stretch.
"I don't get nervous, really," he said, "but my adrenaline starts pumping like crazy.
"And then I get to watch the race."
So he had that going for him … which was nice.
Heart-unhealthy – Borrowing from state fairs, the speedway traditionally offers special food of the outrageous variety at concession stands. This race's extreme junk food was red velvet funnel cakes.
Recent offerings have included chocolate-covered bacon, barbecue sundaes and deep-frid cupcakes.

Blue Bulls Vodacom Cup hooker Chiliboy Ralepelle will be the shock inclusion in the enlarged Springbok squad announced on 13 May.
Bok coach Jake White told Die Burger's Herbert Pretorius that he wants to invite the 19-year-old hooker to the Boks' training camp in Bloemfontein. He is even considering including Ralepelle for the Bok team to play against Scotland.
Ralepelle's inclusion means that neither Gary Botha nor Schalk Brits will be in the extended squad. John Smit and Hanyani Shimange are White's top two hookers at the moment.
"I have no say in the compilation of South Africa's Super 14 teams and that's why it's not my fault that he isn't playing for the Bulls," said the coach. "Chiliboy has proven himself at U19 and U21 level and I believe he's good enough to repeat his performance at senior level. Remember that the hooker he played against in last year's U21 World Cup final is the Australian Tatafu Polota-Nau, who has already played Test rugby for the Wallabies."
Ralepelle played in both the U19 and the U21 World Championship victories. He was also named SA Rugby's U19 player of the year.
"I'd like to see how he performs in a team with big locks, for example, Bakkies Botha and Johan Ackermann behind him and big props like Os du Randt and CJ van der Linde alongside him in the scrums. I'm sure he'll cope," White said.
White said Brits, who has been the Stormers first-choice hooker this year, would have to work harder on his scrumming technique and line-out throw-ins.
"At Test level you want a hooker who excels in those two facets and not as much someone who can run well with the ball in hand,†he said. "I must experiment with several new players and combinations, because I can't possibly select my strongest possible team for all 12 Tests."

HardKnocker wrote:Are we afraid to talk to our neighbors?
Think about it.
Here's an idea: "Hey, Joe, I see a section of the fence blew down. What say we put it back up? It'll take five minutes."
Mayor Antonio Villaraigosa has asked for approval for a six-foot-wall around the Getty House, the mayor's official residence in Windsor Square, according to city documents.
But at least one planning official was "caught off guard" by Villaraigosa's request for increased security around the taxpayer-owned property.
The mayor's office filed its request on Feb. 2 for a variance to city bylaws with plans to erect a security wall around the property at 605 S. Irving Blvd.
Initially, the mayor proposed an eight-and-a-half-foot wall, which was quickly rejected by the Windsor Square Association.
Villaraigosa has scaled down his plans, but the new proposal still exceeds the permitted 42-inch height.

If your url doesn't so indicate, a heads-up of "Fox News" would probably be welcome in many quarters. Thanks.
Call_Me_Op wrote:I do plan to talk with the neighbor. Not as easy as it sounds - but doable.
As far as the fence history, it was probably erected before this neighbor moved in 30 years ago - but the neighbor in the past told me it was her fence. I believe it is just over the property line, on her side.
Probably putting it back up is the best bet - even though the whole fence will be falling apart in the coming years. I would have to get help due to a back problem. The fence section is quite heavy.
Someone said 15 bucks per linear foot. I paid 26 bucks per linear foot for an equivalent fence in back of my yard. I live in an expensive part of the country, which affects everything.
NorCalDad wrote:Maybe customs/laws are different where I live, but it seems weird to me to call it your "neighbor's fence," since that suggests only one of you bears responsibility for a downed fence between your yards.

I likey!
very nice designs, color me impressed!
Hopefully something similar is in the making for the Passat b/c this is NICE. [IMG]http://**********************/smile/emthup.gif[/IMG] Heck, they probably don't need the Passat except the CC if the Jetta looks this good.

-Says the VW owner
I'm more excited than Sasha Grey at a Hot Dog convention!!!
Well done VW!
excellent design, now lets see a 1.6 TDI in it and it'll be perfect.
heck yeah.
It really does look good. If Ford hadn't come out with that new Focus, it'd be uncontested for the best car in the segment. It'll be a battle royale between these two and the (likely cheaper) Cruze when it makes it's debut.

Posts may not reflect the views of others, get over it.
OMG, I love it!
is it going to be the 140hp or 170hp TDI? if its 170 im getting it. if not i'll hold out for the MKVII, but not be able to. this looks to sharp to pass up.
Looking forward to selling this!!!!! loving the possitive feedback
Wow . . . I'm thoroughly impressed with this one. Definitely one of the nicest concepts I've seen come out of VW and I think they've definitely hit a home run with this. It looks like a mini A5, especially from the rear. If I wasn't a poor college student, then I'd snap this up in a heartbeat. Hopefully VW will stick true to the concept for much of it and the four door will look just as sharp as the coupé. Now lets see if they actually BUILD the coupé . . .

"Although there's sure to be countless variants of the Coupe when it arrives in production guise (were sure a few versions of the 2.0T will find their way underhood), in the "concept" motivation is provided by a 1.4-liter TSI inline-four, putting out 150 horsepower and 110 pound-feet of torque. However, when partnered with it's hybrid system (a 20-kilowatt electric motor drawing pour from a lithium ion battery), output is boosted by 27 ponies to 177 hp and an equal amount of torque. VW estimates that U.S. mileage should average around 45 mpg and with its hybrid setup, the Concept Coupe can be driven in full electric mode for an unspecified range. With it's seven-speed dual clutch gearbox, VW pegs the Coupe's 0-60 time at 8.1 seconds, with a top speed of 141 mph."
Nicest looking Scion since the Tc!!! Way to go Toyota!
Somthing fishy is up with every one of VW's press releases regarding fuel economy, they say this will get 4.2 L/100 km EPA or 45 mpg, well last time i checked 4.2/L/100km was 55 MPG. What is up with that?
Looks absolutely amazing. I was holding out to see what the new Jetta looks like, and this new concept has thrown me through a loop. And the GLI is supposed to look even more aggressive? I can't imagine what it's going to look like if this coupe looks as amazing as this.
Bring it on, VW. I'm waiting to see this in the flesh, and I'll probably end up buying one just like I did the MkV GLI once I saw it in the flesh.

Well other then the parts bin A4/A5 taillights and the A4/A5 trunk lid lines making in look like a rebadged Audi from the rear, it's beautiful.
They should have painted it Audi Nimbus Gray in honor of 1552 design's attempt.
I love it. Hopefully it'll be at the Toronto Auto show in February.

US Gallon (3.8 liters) vs Imperial Gallon (4.5 liters)?

That's a VERY sharp looking replacement for the Jetta. WOW.

4.2 Liters on 100 km is 55.9 US MPG and get this 67.25 Imperial MPG.
In other words it still doesn't add up, Vw claims 4.2 liters/100 km **45 US MPG on EPA test. Someone failed their math class.
We have to assume the liters on 100 km are right because those are the units of measurement they use the most in Europe. Not MPG imperial or US.

By Suzanne Kubota
Senior Internet Editor
When the United States decided to risk $700 billion to shore up a faltering financial system, someone had to keep an eye on the money. That someone was Neil Barofsky, the Special Inspector General for the Troubled Asset Relief Program. Most of the money has been returned to the U.S. Treasury, and now Barosky is stepping down.
He told Federal News Radio TARP is a great example of how a government program should be run - but wasn't.
"If you're going to have a government program, you need to start off with clear, articulate goals," Barofsky said. "Then you need to measure the progress of your program against those goals and if you're not meeting that progress, the progress isn't helping to achieve those goals, you need change that program so you can ultimately have a successful program. Unfortunately, far too often in TARP, it was a different model. It was declare very, very lofty goals, then have no policy connected to actually achieving those goals. And when the goals failed, instead of changing the program, they just basically set new goals and said 'mission accomplished, the program was a success.' And that really isn't a good, effective way to run a government program."
TARP's successes and failures
In terms of what has been accomplished, Barofsky said he sees TARP as a program of mixed results.
"On the one hand, one of TARP's goals was, of course, to rescue the financial system and to restore the profitability of the largest banks so that they could continue to do business, and there TARP has certainly been successful," Barofsky said.
But the program was intended to do much more than that, said Barofsky. "It was supposed to help preserve home ownerships. It was supposed to help assist in the recovery. It was supposed to help restore lending. And there, the program has simply not been successful but has failed."
To be clear, Barofsky said the entire program wasn't a failure. In terms of Wall Street, "and helping the largest banks recover, it certainly got an A. Just look at how well they're doing." However, said Barofsky, when you look at some of the other issues, "like preserving home ownership, again, a D minus, if not an F. No, probably an F." He noted that with 13 sub-programs, "it's hard to give a weighted average grade."
Barofsky said Congress is behind one of the biggest disappointments for TARP: home ownership. In the beginning, "Congress basically understood how TARP was going to be implemented. They were going to buy $700 billion dollars in toxic assets, and what that meant at the time was mortgages - mortgages and mortgage backed securities, and as it was explained to Congress, Treasury was then going to modify those mortgages." So buy the mortgages, modify them, then sell them back on the market, "hopefully for a profit."
Barofsky said within weeks "that whole strategy was abandoned" when the decision was made to instead inject the money directly into propping up the biggest banks. Months later, the Home Affordable Modification Program (HAMP) was announced, "and the idea there was going to help 3 to 4 million people." Now, Barofsky said, "we're facing the cold and stark reality that that program's never going to come anywhere close to three to four million. We're right now sitting at about 540,000 ongoing and really no plan or way of ever coming close to that number."
A legacy of too big to fail?
Even more worrisome for Barofsky, as he considers the future, is the possible danger that's been done to the financial system in general as a result of that decision. One of TARP's "biggest legacies," said Barofsky, "is that when first Secretary (Henry) Paulson then Secretary (Timothy) Geithner guaranteed the nation's largest banks against failure,...they achieved the goal of helping to preserve the system, but they also created the expectation that going forward that these largest banks will be bailed out again if there's a problem. And right now, as we sit here in 2011, the market really perceives that these largest banks are still too big to fail and if they get into trouble the government is going to bail them out. And that really is a perversion on the market."
In turn, said Barofsky, that perception "terribly distorts market. It screws up incentives. Executives have the incentive, rational incentive, to take on more risk with the assumption the government will bail them out if their decisions go awry, and that creates banks that are even larger, even more systemically important, and therefore makes the financial system even more vulnerable to the exact type of catastrophe, of crisis, that we experienced in 2008, so I'm very, very concerned about where we are going forward if something isn't done dramatically and quickly to deal with these legacy issues."

Results vs. Armstrong Atlantic (2008-04-08 15:00:00)
April 8, 2008
|Pfeiffer 3, No. 24 AASU 2
|Tuesday, 08 April 2008
|SAVANNAH, Ga. (April 8) – Freshman righthander Adam Sedberry hurled his first collegiate complete game, giving up eight hits and two runs in pitching the visiting Pfeiffer Falcons to a 3-2 victory over Armstrong Atlantic State on Tuesday afternoon at Pirate Field.
Sedberry helped the Falcons (21-23) halt a five-game losing streak, while the Pirates (22-12) dropped their third in a row and fourth in their last five games.
The Falcons built a 3-0 lead by the fourth inning, scoring single runs in the second, third and fourth frames. Ryan Brown's RBI double in the second put Pfeiffer on top, 1-0, then Shawn Coke's team-leading eighth home run of the season to center field pushed the lead to 2-0 in the third. Brown added an RBI groundout in the fourth inning.
The Pirates responded in the bottom of the fourth inning with back-to-back RBI doubles from Nick Pyron and Kenny Cail, closing the gap to 3-2.
After that point, however, AASU could not get to Sedberry. Three times in the final four innings the Pirates got the leadoff runner on, but were unable to push across the tying run. Sedberry struck out six and walked just one, improving to 4-2 on the year. Garrett Smith (2-2) took the loss for the Pirates, giving up two runs and six hits in three innings.
Tyler Smith led the Falcons at the plate with a 3-for-3 day, reaching base in all five trips to the plate, while Coke, Hayes Hinson and Eric Shoemaker each collected two hit days.
Pfeiffer is next in action on Friday, April 11, with a Carolinas Conference contest at Erskine at 2:30 p.m.
