1996 RM 125 Blown Head Gasket
I could use a bit of help.
I am fixing a 1996 RM 125 for a young fellow. It is his first bike.
He got it in a non running condition.
I am a long time rider starting with my first bike a Hodaka Ace 100 but my newest two stroke is a 1972 Yankee Z.
I have worked on many air cooled Two strokes but never a watercooled one.
His bike had no compression so I pulled the head.
I can see were the steam has cleaned off the carbon on the piston so I know the head lost its seal.
Thesewatercooled bikes only have two O Ring sealing the head? I did not see a copper head gasket.
How is the best way to insure that the sealing surfaces are going to reseal once I install the new O Rings?
The Cylinder is stilll showing cross hatching on the cylinder wall. Can a Nikasil cylinder be honed like a steel cylinder?
Is there a PDF online of the service manual?

Have You Gone Green?
The guys from Jackass may put their bodies through hilariously painful self-inflicted stunts, Bam Margera may be an asshole expert when it comes to tormenting family members with cruel, mindless pranks, and Ashton Kutcher's elaborate hidden-video scenarios have tricked many a celebrity. But it was Tom Green who first baffled MTV audiences with bizarre antics that blurred the lines between social experiment, performance art and crude prank. In between his spaced-out interviews with celebrities on The Tom Green Show, he would accost passersby with a bullhorn, commandeer department-store intercoms or suck milk directly from a cow udder. He also perfected the art of parental torture, having lesbian pornography airbrushed on his parents' car and placing a severed cow head in their bed. The show ended after his bout with testicular cancer (which he documented on the show), giving way to later versions leading up to his current Web-only call-in talk show, Tom Green's House Tonight. Whether his awkward humor works onstage is debatable, but every moment he's doing stand-up is a moment that he's not making another Freddie Got Fingered. He performs 8 p.m. and 10:30 p.m. Friday; 6:30 p.m. and 9 p.m. Saturday; and 7:30 p.m. Sunday at the Addison Improv, 4980 Belt Line Road. Tickets ($20 to $22) and more information are at 972-404-8501 or improv.com.

Fleet Ships Too Expensive

So they added the Tac oddy's support ship as something we can fly? interesting.
So, to clear up. When you buy a Fleet ship, you don't even get a new special costume for it. It's the exact same thing, only with T5ish level stats?
Cause I've kinda heard it being said both ways. Fancy new look alongside the stats, and the same old look, but better stats.
Sigh. and the release notes were PARTLY bringing me out of the "Meh STO" level I've been at. This kinda stuff alongside the STF information they've been talking about for a good while, and now going "It'll be way later." does not make me enthused.
Hell, a friend said Cryptic better be releasing big and great stuff, especially with GW2 just around the corner.
Edit: At the very least, I will say it is a nice thought that they are adding in some lower tier looks to Tier 5, it'll definitely make starship events more diverse (I hope at least) instead of everybody being in the exact same escort or cruiser.

I changed my online data to prevent the one atheist on AOL Answers from abusing my screen name. It has happened again and again. To date, Physicalist has always been quite neurotic.
I dearly hope that Physicalist will see the wisdom to re-enter psychotherapy rather than antagonize people. Life is pleasant when we behave pleasantly.
Listen up, you Ass-munching reprobate! Haven't you tired of this ridiculous charade......??
Just go back to the happy farm until they can get your med's sorted out.... and take all your silly, false identities with you.....
Rocmike aka Stressed-Bill-Anselmog-Anonymous-Unkown Philosopher give it a break.
Ignore the fake Melvin that posed this question. He is an atheist reprobate that runs a gulag with Christian missionaries starving to death inside. He also makes Christian kids into burgers and roasts them on hellfire.
Rocmike with so many aliases that you post under it has to be hard to remember them all. It could be you that stole your screen name. After all you are an idiot.
Again, we see that calm and patience are the formula for victory. Although Physicalist has apparently become quite upset, we see that faith will always give level headed persons calm and good health. Some among us will die in severe turmoil because they reject calming faith. All else will understand the priceless value of eternal peace.
Rocmike give it a break.
Rocmike 7 straight hours of posting under your Melvin alias. You need help and a life.
Melvin, we have all seen that there is only one leftist hatemonger on AOL Answers.
If there is hate in a post, it came from the leftist bigot. Unfortunately leftists cannot understand anything beyond mindless hatemongering, therefore all leftists are insane, bitter, antosocial, malignant, and to be pitied.
Leftists play hate games but that is the way to control leftists. Just refuse to play their games and that gives you complete control over hatemongering leftists.

GeForce 8800 GT MAX with 1024 MB review -
1 - A VVikoo introduction
GeForce 8800 GT MAX with 1024MB memory
Info: vvikoo.com
Price: 259 EUR
Okay, how many of you guys have ever heard of a company called VVIKOO; raise your hand please. Seriously none of you ? Aah my man I do not blame you as they are a really new company who is slowly surfacing in the graphics arena. I officially announce this vendor with the most difficult to remember name, ever. Seriously, mid review (writing), I had to check two times on the box to remember the name. If you have a hard time trying to remember the name here's a hint .. Video Core .. VICOOO, hmm ?
VVIKOO is a graphics card company which sells both NV & ATI cards from mainstream to high-end level, the company is based in France (Creteil) where they started earlier last year, well at least their sales team. They recently released their GeForce 8800 GT products in (r)etail and quite honestly, they are doing that properly by releasing this product customized. We'll peek at their more fashionable product in the GeForce Line-up, their GeForce 8800 GT MAX; which comes with custom PCB, custom Zalman cooler and get this 1 GB of GDDR3 memory.
Judging from something we recognized we think VVIKOO teamed up with Palit (huge video card producer) to bring their customers cost-effective, high quality solutions. By all means do not expect a re-branded product in a different box, no they enforce strong quality control and as I already stated; do a lot of customization. It's the West Coast customs close to Paris ;)
The product tested today sells under the brand name GeForce 8800GT MAX and certainly is not your usual 8800GT. The first thing that catches one's eye is the non-reference setup with the residing all-copper Zalman cooler (VF1000); a dual-slot design and includes a really weird purple PCB color.
Let's have a closer look and then dive into the full review .. next page please.

NEWBERRY — Last month, Newberry County's YMCA received a community development grant from Walmart that would allow the YMCA to establish a community garden.
The garden is now well under way, and is expected to be ready by the fall.
The garden is being constructed by the children in the YMCA's summer camp and counselor in training programs while Alana West, 4H agent, oversees the work as technical advisor. The counselor in training as well as the children in the camp will also maintain the garden year round.
"The goal is to have the counselor in training, summer camp and after school kids, as well as volunteers, to maintain the garden year round," West said.
Once the garden is complete, the YMCA will hold a special day where children will participate in the first planting.
"A few of the beds are still on back order, but once they arrive, we will have them put up and then we will plan a plant day. This will allow the kids to get into the dirt and plant vegetables," said Khristia Webb, program coordinator for the YMCA and garden project overseer.
The children in the after school program are already starting to get excited about the garden, not only in the skills they will learn, but the impact it will bring to the YMCA.
"I am excited to not only plant crops, but for people to see what a good job we did constructing the garden," said Brody Harkins, camp counselor in training.
Webb said that the YMCA members are also excited about the garden, and feel it will bring a positive impact to the YMCA and the community.
Although it has not been decided what vegetables will be planted, the garden will be planted year round, and each season will bring a new batch of crops that will thrive with the changing of the seasons.
Once the produce is ready to be harvested, the after school children will then learn how to cook the produce and will then be able to enjoy the meals they create during their snack period.
"The produce will go to our after school kids, all the snacks we provide are healthy and the produce will go to help enrich our after school snacks, and allow the kids to taste fresh veggies," said Webb.
Webb also hopes that program will eventually begin to produce an excess of vegetables, so they can expand the program to include providing produce to some of the YMCA's in need members and begin a Saturday market.
"In the future, hopefully two years, we would like to do a Saturday market right here at the YMCA, and have members of the community come and purchase the produce our kids have worked so hard to grow," said Webb.

Labopharm announces U.S. launch of OLEPTRO(TM) for treatment of major depressive disorder in adults
"The U.S. launch of our second product, OLEPTRO(TM), is a major milestone for Labopharm and represents a significant opportunity as we focus on driving revenue as a commercial enterprise," said
The initial OLEPTRO(TM) sales force is composed of 145 individuals and can be scaled up as the product achieves market penetration. The sales effort is complemented by a managed care strategy that maximizes access for OLEPTRO(TM).
"OLEPTRO(TM) offers physicians another therapeutic alternative for treating their patients with major depressive disorder," said Dr.
MDD is a common mental illness often characterized by a combination of emotional, somatic and behavioral symptoms.(i) It affects more than 14 million adults in the U.S. and is the leading cause of disability globally. Nearly 28 percent of patients being treated with antidepressants stop taking their medication within the first four weeks of treatment and as many as 44 percent stop within the first 12 weeks, due to reasons such as lack of efficacy, exacerbation of symptoms, including sleep disturbance and agitation, and/or adverse events such as weight gain or sexual dysfunction.(ii)
About OLEPTRO(TM)
OLEPTRO(TM) is a novel once-daily formulation of the antidepressant trazodone for the treatment of major depressive disorder (MDD) in adults.
OLEPTRO(TM) is an extended release formulation of trazodone hydrochloride, and uses CONTRAMID(R), Labopharm's clinically validated technology to control the release of active substances within oral medications, whether taken whole or when broken along the score line. CONTRAMID(R), which allows for a high drug-loading capacity, forms a semi-permeable membrane that controls the release of medication throughout a 24 hour time period. The tablets may also be broken in half along the score line without compromising the extended release properties due to a membrane that forms across the new inner surface of the broken tablet.

If there's anyone to blame, it'd be Chud.
who could have made chud alter what he did after three games of that poo not working? how long does it take to figure out that the change in what you're doing isn't working and is hurting the offense? who was the guy that didn't force that change to happen sooner?
it falls on rivera.

Our vets have playoff experience too home boy haha, Super Bowl experience in fact.
Marvin Lewis has been on the hot seat for years.
Leslie Frazier would've lost his job of they didn't make the playoffs.
Pete Caroll was being questioned until he gambled with Wilson and won.
Shannhan had a losing season last year and a lot of people thought he was crazy for giving up that much for rg3. He started 3-6 too.
None of those coaches were on the hot seat..... Every single coach on that list has playoff experience, and so does the vets on their team. Compare that to ours.....
To be fair only two starters remain from the Super Bowl game. But you are correct that we have that.
Posted 01 January 2013 - 12:31 PM
So does Brad Johnson.
Dan Marino, Fran Tarkenton and Jim Kelly don't.
dilfer and johnson are why i don't take people who are overly fixated on "winners" and "losers" seriously.
neither of them did a damn thing after they left those ravens and bucs teams but since they have rings somehow they're supposed to have something innate that makes them better than guys like marino and jim kelly.
kelly is a damn good quarterback who should have multiple rings. even though he's a hall of famer i still feel that he's overlooked by joe fan as one of the greatest to ever play. he's just that guy who lost four super bowls to your average idiot. and of course we're all familiar with dan marino.

Declining fastball velocity makes Javier Vazquez no sure thing to bounce back in Florida
Nov 29, 2010, 2:16 PM EDT
Javier Vazquez signing a one-year, $7 million deal with the Marlins has seemingly everyone assuming that he'll fare well going back to the NL and away from New York, and admittedly that was my first thought as well.
After all, Vazquez has a 4.02 ERA in eight career seasons in the NL, compared to 4.65 in four AL seasons, and was an elite starter for the Braves in 2009 with a 2.87 ERA in 219 innings.
However, as David Cameron of Fan Graphs notes Vazquez's struggles with the Yankees may have had more to do with his declining fastball velocity than his inability to pitch in New York.
His average fastball fell from 91.1 miles per hour in 2009 to 88.7 mph this season as Vazquez posted the lowest ground-ball percentage of his career and served up 34 homers in just 157 innings while batters made contact on more than 80 percent of their swings against him for the first time.
Going from the AL to the NL and from the Yankees' power-boosting ballpark to the Marlins' pitcher-friendly home will no doubt help Vazquez, but at age 35 and with his fastball ranking among the slowest in baseball this season it's also possible that he's simply no longer as good as he used to be.
- Jonny 5 - Nov 29, 2010 at 2:40 PM
Go talk to Jamie Moyer. He'll show him what to do with his not so fast fastball. I watched him befuddle the Yanks not so long ago, and his velocity was wayyyy lower than Javier's. I guess it's time to work on your movement Javier, If you wanna continue as a starter…
- Utley's Hair - Nov 29, 2010 at 2:49 PM
So…what you're saying is he wasn't too bright taking a one-year $7 million deal over a two-year $20 million deal? You can be so rude, Aaron!!!
- Old Gator - Nov 29, 2010 at 2:49 PM
I was just beginning to relax about this, and a nano-sized drop of bonhomie for the Scrooge McLoria Regime was forming in the little depression atop each key of my keyboard, and Gleeman goes and perforates my K-shell like that. Pffffffttttttt, you can hear the quarks leaking out. But Johnny5 has a thought: can Javy become the next ageless junkballer?
As of now I haven't seen anything about him passing his required physical. Tick, tick, tick….
- BC - Nov 29, 2010 at 3:46 PM
This guy has had one really good year in his career. Other than that, he's a .500 pitcher who throws a ton of innings. I wouldn't touch him – too much tread off of the tires after that many miles.

Coming into the weekend series against the New York Mets, the Atlanta Braves had won just two of the teams first six games over the course of the first homestand at Turner Field.
With a 10-game swing in California looming, the Braves and Brave faithful alike, knew the team needed to reel off a few victories before heading west.
And the Braves did, after Friday's rainout that is, sweeping Saturday's doubleheader, 4-2 and 4-0, before losing the series finale, 3-2.
Game 1 brought a display of power Atlanta (7-9) has been waiting to return, as Chipper Jones, Alex Gonzalez and rookie Freddie Freeman each hit home runs.
The downside: each of the home runs were solo shots.
The upside: three of the four were hit with two outs, and the other, Gonzalez's second, led off an inning.
That proved to be more than enough for Derek Lowe, who continued to shut down opposing lineups.
The veteran sinkerballer gave up two runs on five hits, striking out four and walking two over 6 innings and 99 pitches before giving way to the bullpen. Three relievers combined for the 7th and 8th innings before rookie Craig Kimbrel needed a 21-pitch 9th inning to nail down his fourth save of the year.
Game 2 provided an eye-opener for a lot of doubters, as Jair Jurrjens, fresh off the disabled list, carved through the New York (5-11) lineup, scattering two hits over 7 innings on 100 pitches. The Curacao-native struck out four and walked one.
For a lot of Atlanta faithful, this was a sight for sore eyes, as JJ struggled with injuries last year after a stellar 2009, where the righty posted a record of 14-10 and a 2.60 E.R.A in 34 starts.
But if his first start of 2011 provided any relief, it was that he has not lost any bite on his off-speed pitches, and is not afraid to pitch to any opposing hitter.
As JJ was shutting down the Met lineup, the Braves were jumping on New York starter Mike Pelfrey for 11 hits, chasing the righty after 5 innings.
With the Braves belting four home runs in the first game, 10 of the 11 hits in game 2 were singles.
It started in the first, with two outs after consecutive singles from Chipper, Eric Hinske and Dan Uggla. Uggla's single brought Chipper around, which proved to be the winning run.
In the third, Chipper's second single in as many at bats brought Martin Prado around after hitting the lone extra-base hit for the Braves. Hinske and David Ross provided the other two RBI singles.
With the sweep of the doubleheader, the Braves sealed the first series victory of the season since taking two of three from Washington to open the season.
Even with the series victory in hand, Atlanta still had one game left against the Mets before leaving for Los Angeles.
New York took the upper hand early, jumping on starter Tommy Hanson for two first inning runs before the righty settled down, allowing one run and four hits in his next four innings.
Down 2-0 early, the Braves did not give in, as Freeman's RBI single in the second scored Uggla to put Atlanta down one.
But Jose Reyes, who had gone 1-8 Saturday, scored the decisive run after singling to center. Reyes came around on Josh Thole's single after stealing second.
Jason Heyward's eighth inning blast pulled the Braves closer once again, but closer Frankie Rodriguez escaped a jam in the ninth to steal the victory for the Mets after striking out Brooks Conrad with Chipper standing 90-feet from home.
After 16 games, the Braves head west, starting with a four-game set against the Los Angeles Dodgers (7-9) Monday night.
The Dodgers come into the series fresh off a 2-1 victory over St. Louis after losing 5 straight.
This is a slightly-different L.A. team than in years past.
No longer is Joe Torre in charge, as Don Mattingly took command before the 2010 season was over.
No longer is Russell Martin the backstop, as he had been since 2006. Rod Barajas took that post, and Martin is now employed by the New York Yankees.
The Dodgers added Juan Uribe from San Francisco, Aaron Miles from St. Louis and Tony Gwynn, Jr. from San Diego.
Even with all of that, the Dodgers still bring a lineup possessing Matt Kemp, James Loney, Andre Ethier and Casey Blake, all capable of inflicting damage at any point over the next four games.
But if there is a troublesome spot the Atlanta offense can take advantage of, it's the pitching staff. Through 16 games, L.A. pitchers had a collective E.R.A. of 4.72, 12th in the NL. Atlanta sits atop the senior circuit at 3.09.
Even with that, the Braves head into Chavez Ravine knowing that the L.A. offense can appear at any time, as seen in recent years.
Keys to the series for Atlanta:
- Be aggressive at the plate
- The offense sits at 14th in the NL with a .230 batting average, but has shown positive strides over the past few days.
- Shut down L.A.'s feast-or-famine offense
- The Braves send Tim Hudson, Brandon Beachy, Derek Lowe and JJ over the course of the series, and each of the Atlanta pitchers can flourish under the bright lights of Dodger Stadium
- Get to the pitching staff
- Ted Lilly, Hiroki Kuroda and Clayton Kershaw have all pitched well against the Braves in years past, but if rattled, this Dodger staff can implode.
As early as it is in the season, this is the first of two ten-game trips for the Braves, and gaining momentum on the road, regardless of the month, can do wonders come September.
Notes: Since 2002, the Braves have tied two season series against the Dodgers and lost one...2000 NL Rookie of the Year and former Brave Rafael Furcal is on the DL with a broken left thumb until late May.. L.A. was outscored 30-10 against the Cardinals..Kuroda threw a one-hitter against the Braves July 7, 2008..Jon Garland, Wednesday's starter, gave up 5 runs on 9 hits in four innings against St. Louis Friday...This is not the lone West Coast trip for the Braves. They return in May for an interleague series against the Angels and come back for a six-game swing with San Diego and Seattle in June.

In Texas, Small Things Lead to Big Success
This post is part of a Microloan Success feature series on the USDA blog. Check back every Tuesday and Thursday as we showcase stories and news from USDA's Farm Service Agency.
When Agriculture Secretary Tom Vilsack hosted a town hall meeting in San Antonio, Texas, in January 2013, he shared information about USDA's microloan program. The program allows beginning, small and mid-sized farmers to access up to $35,000 in loans using a simplified application process.
Beginning farmers Brittany Davis and Anthony Micheli were in the audience and they were listening. The two were inspired to meet with their local Farm Service Agency (FSA) representatives to apply for a microloan. Read more »

|No Manti Te'o, Eddie Lacy or Geno Smith in first round of 2013 NFL Draft
|Written by Anthony Rome
|Friday, 26 April 2013 05:30
Big prospects fall in first round
NEW YORK (AP) - There were plenty of big names missing from the first round of the NFL draft Thursday night: Manti Te'o, Geno Smith, Matt Barkley.
And every running back in this year's crop.
The biggest surprise might have been quarterbacks Smith and Barkley being trumped by Florida State's EJ Manuel, who was the only QB selected. The last time just one went in the first round was 2001, when Michael Vick was the first overall pick.
Teams might have been scared away from Te'o because of the Notre Dame linebacker's poor performance in a championship game rout at the hands of Alabama. Or because of the fake girlfriend hoax he was ensnared in and which became a national soap opera.
Smith looked like a lock to be selected not only in the opening round, but with a high choice, when West Virginia got off to a sensational start last season. But he slumped, as did the Mountaineers, and his stock dropped.
Barkley was projected as a high pick last year had he skipped his final season at Southern California. He stayed, the Trojans struggled and Barkley injured his throwing shoulder.
With questions about his arm strength and poise in the pocket, he slipped out of the first round.
The top-rated running back was Eddie Lacy of Alabama, and unlike three Crimson Tide teammates taken in a row (ninth-11th), he was ignored. It was the first time since 1963 that no running back went in the opening round.
Other highly rated players not selected Thursday included linebackers Arthur Brown of Kansas State and Kevin Minter of LSU; tight end Zach Ertz of Stanford; tackle Menelik Watson of Florida State; and defensive lineman Damontre Moore of Texas A&M.
Lacy, Smith and Watson were at Radio City Music Hall.
In 2008, Johnson played his first junior college game for Kilgore (Texas) - as a quarterback - against Fort Scott (Kan.). He recalls looking at the scouting report and seeing the opponent had a 6-foot-6 defensive end named Jason Pierre-Paul.
``Nobody knew about him,'' Johnson said. ``He got on the field and did a back flip, and I think everybody kind of figured out what he's about.''
Now Johnson, in his new position, looks forward to trying to block the Giants' Pierre-Paul, who also developed into a first-round pick (in 2010) from that meeting almost five years ago.
Ansah, from Ghana, didn't play the sport until 2010 when he walked on at BYU. He was a quick learner: The defensive end was the fifth overall pick, going to the Detroit Lions.
``A crazy journey,'' he called it.
Auburn's most recent player leading off the selections was QB Cam Newton by Carolina in 2011. Before Newton, it was LB Aundray Bruce by Atlanta (1988); RB Bo Jackson by Tampa Bay (1986); RB Tucker Frederickson by the New York Giants (1965); and guard Ken Rice by Buffalo in the AFL (1961).
For Notre Dame, it was QB Angelo Bertelli by the Boston Yanks in 1944; QB Frank Dancewicz by the same team two years later; end Leon Hart by Detroit (1950); RB-K Paul Hornung by Green Bay (1957); and DE Walt Patulski by Buffalo (1973).
Southern Cal's top overall picks began with OT Ron Yary in 1968 by Minnesota, followed by RB O.J. Simpson by Buffalo the next year; RB Ricky Bell by Tampa Bay (1977); WR Keyshawn Johnson by the New York Jets (1996); and QB Carson Palmer by Cincinnati (2003).
The study by WPI students Casey Barney, Anthony Caravella, Michael Cullen and Gary Jackson, also concluded that the Pittsburgh Steelers have been the most cost-effective team in the drafting since 2000. The Indianapolis Colts and Green Bay Packers are next, while the St. Louis Rams and Cleveland Browns ranked as least efficient.
As part of the study, WPI researchers developed a football metric called Appearance Score, a weighted combination of games played, games started and recognition as a top player. Highlighting the value of non-first-round picks, two of the top three players in Appearance Score last season were sixth-round draft picks in 2012: Washington running back Alfred Morris and Minnesota kicker Blair Walsh.
In addition to team rankings, researchers focused on positions, and found that safeties provide the greatest value to teams.
CHARACTER ISSUES: Every general manager and personnel director in the NFL can't look solely at a player's on-field achievements. His performances away from the stadium are significant, particularly when there have been problems.
Several players in this draft have had such troubles, including Georgia linebacker Alec Ogletree, LSU cornerback Tyrann Mathieu and Tennessee Tech receiver Da'Rick Rogers. Only Ogletree was chosen in the opening round, by St. Louis.
``Well, I think they're 21, 22-year-old kids, so none of them are going to be perfect,'' Broncos boss John Elway said. ``It comes down to what you feel like and what's the best package.
``My philosophy has always been as long as that core group in our locker room is strong enough, everyone else is going to have to fall in line. It's when you have a divided locker room that you have issues with different guys that may have maturity issues or that type of thing down the line. It's real important for us to have a real good core group of guys in that locker room, which is to say that we look at everybody and evaluate everybody as a player and also their personal character and see where they'd fit in.''
Colts GM Ryan Grigson said his staff considers every possible draftee, then does a thorough evaluation that goes beyond the physical talents.
``We take into account if a guy has mental issues, mental concerns, if those are going to be concerns for us,'' Grigson said. ``Can we get him the right help and support system that will get him to be where he can function on this team and be a good teammate and a player? So we take all those things into account.''

Slow, formulaic 'Step Up' missteps
For a hot summer day, "Step Up Revolution" provides an entertaining and upbeat two-hour escape, but the fourth installment in the "Step Up" series fails to provide a concrete story and inspire the audience to take up dancing like its predecessors.
In the opening scene, Sean (Ryan Guzman) and his dance crew, The Mob, block traffic and perform for people on the streets. They want to be seen and heard, but the irony is, they don't have much to say or any goals in mind beyond getting some attention.
It's not until a fourth of the slow-going movie has crawled along that they find a common goal.
Keeping with the "Step Up" format, the film offers a love interest between two dancers, one from the poor side of town and one from the rich. Sean meets Emily (Kathryn McCormick) at the club where he and his wing man, Eddy (Misha Gabriel), work.
Emily does not have the charisma to match Sean's, and so their "meet-cute" — a romantic film term that describes a couple's first meeting — lacks a hook. The audience is left wondering what Sean could see in Emily until she drags him to the dance floor, where she proves herself.
As it just so happens, Emily is the daughter of a rich land developer. Sean is already head over heels in love with his Cinderella girl before he finds out her identity. She is in Miami to try out for a spot in a prestigious dance institute and is devoted to her training.
Sean tries to give her pointers, but it isn't until the institute's director tells her she lacks inspiration that Emily decides to take part in The Mob. This is when the movie's conflict and romance begin.
Emily's dad plans on turning The Mob's neighborhood into a luxury resort, and now the crew has an incentive to turn their "performance art to protest art."
Sean has not told the rest of his friends about Emily's father, but Emily has promised Sean she will do whatever she can to help them keep their neighborhood.
Guzman and McCormick fail to make the used story line of forbidden love their own. Though their dancing chemistry is excellent, the dialogue proves to be more challenging. The script serves a few chuckles, but overall, it lacks much intelligence and humor.
The highlight is the dance scene in a Miami museum.
The crew infiltrates the museum's DJ and security systems so the dancers can shine during a social event. Guests are dressed up, enjoying their time, when dancers appear from the artwork one by one, the lights go down and the music turns up. This scene holds the most charm because of the unique costumes and the separate shows in each room, like art displayed in ordered spots.
In all the dance scenes, specific stunts make each number memorable, but other than the museum, the dances are overly ambitious. Each performance/protest features so many people tackling separate choreography that it's hard to appreciate the dance moves. The film fails to unite the separate choreography into a multifaceted unit.
Instead, the audience is left jumping from one thing to the next, trying to find a center point. As far as flash mobs go, though, these dance scenes outshine anything that may pop out in Walmart or a mall.
Director Scott Speer makes his mark on the "Step Up" franchise. He is known as a music video director, and he certainly applies his music video expertise well in this movie. Speer and cinematographer Karsten Gopinath capture each dance scene from many creative camera angles that encompass the large amount of people.
Still, despite the camera work that elevated the dancing, Speer's overall vision failed to make the dancing and story line memorable.

2013 Toyota Avalon sheds 110 pounds
By David Szondy
September 10, 2012
With U.S. mileage standards set to rise to 54.5 miles per gallon (4.31 liters per 100 km) by 2025, Carmakers are working flat out to make their vehicles burn as little fuel as possible. One approach is to develop new drivetrains based on hybrid or all-electric technology, but regardless of the platform, weight reduction remains very much a part of the equation. Toyota is pointing to its 2013 Avalon as an example of its progress on this front, having designed the mid-size sedan with 110 pounds (50 kg) less weight than the 2012 model.
Lightening a car seems like an easy thing to do, but in practice it's a tricky balancing act of requirements and tradeoffs. Do you make the car lighter by using less steel? But if you do that, how do you protect the passengers in crash at the standard required by law? You could put in a lighter engine, but that may mean poorer performance. Or you could use composites, but that puts up the price. On the other hand, reducing weight in one area allows for savings in others. A lighter chassis, for example, means that smaller tires can be fitted for even more savings.
Based on the Lexus ES, the Avalon is Toyota's flagship sedan. It's built in the United States and Australia for the for the North American and Middle Eastern markets.
Toyota took a broad approach to the task of making the Avalon both lighter and more rigid so that the weight reduction would be rewarded with better handling.
"We established two main mass targets early in development: lowest mass among competitors (mass vs. vehicle size) and reduction of one inertia weight class rank," says Dave Katarzynski, Program Manager of Avalon Vehicle Development. "As part of each design engineering group's agreement, mass targets were set for each group. The groups then managed their part by part mass to keep their target and help control the overall goal. Hundreds of mass reduction ideas were tracked throughout development and periodic reviews checked status."
One form of weight reduction was replacing the polypropylene resin used in the bumpers with a more fluid high-performance version. Another was using high-strength steel in the pillars and rocker panels to lighten them while maintaining safety standards.
These and similar reductions give the new Avalon Hybrid sedan a weight of at 3,461 lbs (1570 kg), compared to 3,571 lbs (1620 kg) for the 2012 model. Toyota says the car will make 40 mpg and will be the lightest vehicle in the premium mid-size segment when it hits showrooms later in the year.

Mark, the diesels are very economical here in the UK there are small cars that can give 80mpg(uk) /67mpg(us). The only problem is the operating temperature range is reduced, we had what I would call a severe winter recently -20C and the diesel started to get a bit too thick to run, I guess that is why the US likes gasoline!livin_the_dream
Our mileage standards are years behind Europe's. Here is a 2008 article about cars getting 40 to 62 mpg on diesel. Come on America give us high mileage diesels!Mark A
re; livin_the_dream
There are different types of diesel fuel and the cold weather fuel costs more but with the right fuel cold weather is not a problem. Several states and the EPA on the other hand...Pikeman
the best fuel would be battery power if they'd just hurry up and develop the 10xlife Lithium cells into commercial products we would no longer be dependent on foreign oil. I guess there is a lot of reluctance, after all how would the Taxman get his greedy hands on our cash if we generate our own power source (windmill). Sorry for going off topic a little, great achievement Toyota!livin_the_dream
3% weight reduction? So what does that translate into in fuel savings? Is that offset by higher price? The excuse of not using composites because they are too expensive may be true but I would like to see an independent study made. Also, I would like to know how high gas prices have to rise before light weighting and/or diesel are cost effective.
They change the look every year for the sole purpose of raising price. Why has the new design not been more aerodynamic? It costs nothing since they change the outward appearance anyway. It is one of the two fundamental ways to increase efficiency but it is neglected. How many times have you heard a carmaker brag about low drag? But all of them just love to brag about how they increased power. There seems to be an unwritten rule in the U.S. that the higher the MPG, the uglier and smaller it must be. Also, if a car is a sexy two seater it must be a sport, i.e., powerful instead of efficient. Why has no U.S. car been offered that is efficient and sexy?voluntaryist

CHARLOTTE, N.C.-- It's a Plaza Midwood landmark, and after closing in 2010, it's now reopening under new management. The Diamond Restaurant held its grand opening Friday at 11 a.m.
We've been waiting and waiting and waiting for it to open, said Rhonda Miran, who was standing outside of the restaurant.
Rhonda was one of dozens of customers who crowded the front entrance, counting the minutes before the Diamond Restaurant's grand opening.
[We're] ready to eat some good food, said one patron.
Owner Jimmy King welcomed his first guest this morning. He purchased the restaurant in mid-2010 after leaving the Penguin Restaurant over a lease dispute.
Hey guys, thanks for coming. Come on in, he said as the doors were unlocked.
The restaurant is keeping some of its signature dishes from its previous owners, while adding some new creations.
I'm super excited, said Kelly Crisan, who was enjoying lunch at the restaurant.
Crisan says she was a regular customer at the nearby Penguin Diner, and when she found out the previous owners there had purchased and renovated the Diamond, she knew she had to add another local restaurant to her list.
It's all about taking care of the community, and helping everybody out. So we will eat there. We will eat here, she said.
That's exactly what King says he wants to hear.
We support them and they support us, and that's what's great about this neighborhood. Plaza Midwood rocks, said King.
