2008 Chevrolet Aveo Q&A
2008 Chevrolet Aveo Question: bad gas mileage
my 2008 aveo only gets 19 mpg what can i do to get better mpg - jimtown
4 Answers
Answer 3
get the car tuned up and also have them replace the gas filter and the fuel injection system. The Aveos were made to only go up to less than 30 mpg, no more than that. What you are getting can also be very bad gas in your car, but also that your car needs to be tuned up seriously and the fuel injection system to be replaced or cleaned out. That can be done at 30,000 or so. Check with your manual and also call your dealership to tell them of your problem. - jedisolo21
Answer 4
THAT is unacceptable as the only reason to drive one of these is for the gas mileage. Having said that , does the thermostat function correctly, are your driving habits that bad ? Is the engine running poorly , with a terrible miss . Or is this engine somewhat out of time , but before I assume that I would suggest you get the vehicle scanned to determine what the engine may have as a list of trouble codes. The engine light may not work as it does not in mine. Depending on the result of a diagnosis of these potential issue a restricted exhaust would result in low vacuum and make for a fuel hungry engine. In the end it may be a good idea to run from this one. - wkid

Microsoft Fights W3C, Following The Updated "Do Not Track" Draft
Just after enabling the "Do Not Track" attribute by default on IE10, guys at W3C have updated their DNT specifications as they now require web browsers to have this feature disabled during initial software launch.
Here is what they have to say:
Today we reaffirmed the group consensus that a user agent MUST NOT set a default of DNT:1 or DNT:0, unless the act of selecting that user agent is itself a choice that expresses the user's preference for privacy. In all cases, a DNT signal MUST be an expression of a user's preference.

An insight into prison life in Ireland, namely Castlerea Prison, Co Roscommon. On 21st April 2010 I was convicted of assaulting a number of Gardaí in relation to Shell to Sea protests and sentenced to 6 months imprisonment. Remission for good behaviour means that prisoners will have their sentences reduced by a quarter, once you keep your nose clean. I was given credit for 2 weeks time served previously in 2009, before I was bailed out pending my appeal. So I spent 4 months in jail from April to August in the summer of 2010. read full story / add a comment

How many times will U.S. elected Representatives of the U.S. House and Senate have to kiss Israels ass, and in how many ways, before our country will build a true national security teamthat is one actually focused on U.S. security and not primarily on Israels? It is bad enough when Jewish-Americans politicians (with more substantive allegiance to Israel than the U.S.) like junior Senator Ben Cardin for Maryland, claiming his decision on whether Chuck Hagel will be a good Secretary of Defense resides on whether he is onboard with Israels/AIPACs agenda of having war with Israels enemy Iran (at least as backup force); or NY Senator Chuck Schumer equivocating about not feeling comfortable with voting for Hagel because of some of Hagels past attitudes; but even more so with suck-ups like Lindsey Graham giving about the best ass-kissing one could expect (to think some confederates once had some principle of pride and independence).

The title of her memoir, Everybody Matters was a ironic reminder of the silence maintained by Robinson on the human rights abuses associated with Shells Corrib Gas project.

This week Shell have recommenced work, eager to get a move on after the whole TBM-in-a-ditch saga. The Tunnel Boring Machine is still in the Bellanaboy refinery and they haven't made an attempt to move it the last 2km to Aughoose yet. Most of the work seems to be laying a track down from the back of Bellanaboy along the proposed route of the pipeline.

U.S. Secretary of State John Kerry has offered a passionate case for military action against the Syrian government forces of President Bashar al-Assad, saying there is solid proof of his responsibility for the chemical weapons attack last month. VOA's Al Pessin reports from London, where the secretary concluded a series of meetings with European and Middle Eastern leaders.

September 09, 2013 10:36 AM
U.S. Secretary of State John Kerry says that if President Bashar al-Assad wants to avert an attack on Syria in response to his government's alleged use of chemical weapons he should hand over his entire arsenal by the end of the week.
Speaking Monday in London, the top U.S. diplomat added that he did not believe Assad would take such action and questioned whether it was even possible with a civil war raging in Syria.
Still, Kerry said the Obama administration is convinced that chemical weapons in Syria are controlled by "a very tight network" with the president at its center.
Kerry said global inaction in response to the incident would send the wrong signal to Assad and other U.S. adversaries in the Middle East.
"If you want to send Iran and Hezbollah and Assad a congratulatory message, 'You guys can do what you want.' You'd say, 'don't do anything,''' he said.
"We believe that's dangerous and we will face this down the road in some more significant way if we're not prepared to take some kind of a stand now," Kerry said.
Russian proposal
Russian Foreign Minister Sergei Lavrov announced Monday that Moscow would push its ally Syria to place its chemical weapons under international control and then dismantle them quickly to avert U.S. strikes.
Britain and Syria welcomed the Russian proposal.
United Nations Chief Ban Ki-moon said that in a bid to help the U.N. Security Council overcome what he called its "embarrassing paralysis," he may ask the council to demand Syria move its chemical arms stocks to Syrian sites where they can be safely stored and destroyed.
Speaking to reporters in New York, Secretary-General Ban Ki-moon said he may also ask the 15-nation body to demand that Syria join the international anti-chemical weapons convention, a treaty that Damascus has never signed.

Assad denial
In a CBS interview taped in Damascus, Assad denied ordering the August 21 sarin gas attack outside the Syrian capital that Washington says killed more than 1,400 people.
Assad warned the United States "should expect everything" in response to a potential U.S.-led military strike, saying that if "rebels or terrorists in the region" have chemical weapons, they could use them after any American intervention.
"The (Syrian) government is not the only player in this region. You have different parties, different factions, different ideologies," Assad said in excerpts of the interview broadcast on the CBS "This Morning" program.
Asked to elaborate on what response the United States may face, Assad said "I am not a fortune teller who can tell you what is going to happen."
Also Monday, Syrian Foreign Minister Walid al-Moallem said a U.S. military strike could thwart international efforts to convene a peace conference in Geneva to negotiate a resolution to the Syrian conflict. He was speaking at a joint news conference in Moscow with Russian Foreign Minister Sergei Lavrov.

White House push
The Obama administration is launching an intense two-day push to convince Congress and the American people of what it says is the need for a military strike on Syria.
Top security advisers will hold classified and open-door briefings with lawmakers this week. President Barack Obama will give interviews to six major television networks Monday before making a White House address to the nation Tuesday night.
The administration has been handing out videos to its allies, U.S. lawmakers and broadcasters, showing civilian victims of a chemical weapons attack.
U.S. officials say they have evidence that proves beyond any doubt that Assad's army dropped poison gas in the Damascus suburbs last month, killing more than 1,400 people.
U.S. officials want to degrade and deter Syria's ability to use chemical weapons again. They say that doing nothing will lead to more poison gas attacks and a wider war.
Obama has promised to seek congressional approval before responding. But many in Congress have criticized his Syria plan, saying it is unfocused and could embroil the United States in another war.
United Nations inspectors who visited the sites of the August 21 Damascus attack plan to issue a report on it shortly. Kerry said President Obama has not yet decided whether to wait for the U.N. report before taking action on Syria.

UN demands
In Geneva, U.N. High Commissioner for Human Rights Navi Pillay told the U.N. Human Rights Council there is "little doubt" that chemical weapons have been used in Syria. She said it is one of the "gravest crimes" that can be committed.
"The international community is late, very late, to take serious joint action to halt the downward spiral that has gripped Syria, slaughtering its people and destroying its cities," Pillay said.
"This is no time for powerful states to continue to disagree on the way forward, or for geopolitical interests to override the legal and moral obligation to save lives by bringing this conflict to an end," Pillay said.
In the latest fighting on Monday, Syrian troops battled rebel forces in areas around Damascus including a Christian village and in the northern city of Aleppo.
In a video statement, Islamist militants said they are withdrawing from the historic Christian town of Maaloula near the Lebanese border as government forces launched an offensive to retake control. The fighters had vowed to protect the hilltop town after rebels captured its highest peak last week.
Pro-Assad forces also continued to shell rebel-held Damascus suburbs such as Madhamiya, one of the sites of the suspected August 21 chemical attack.
Elsewhere, government airstrikes were reported on rebel positions outside Aleppo, near a strategic highway linking the city with government territory along the coast.
Rebel response
Free Syrian Army rebel commander Abdullah Tlass said American involvement in Syria's two-and-a-half year civil war is the only way to stop the bloodshed.
Speaking to VOA during a visit to family members who sought refuge in Lebanon, Tlass said that if the West does not commit to fighting Assad's government, the war will continue indefinitely. He said the Free Syrian Army will keep trying to defeat the government army and drive Assad supporters out of Syria, even if it takes 100 years.
Tlass defected from the government to the rebels more than a year ago because, he said, he was told to kill innocent people. He said now he commands about 1,300 soldiers, but only 70 percent of them have weapons.
Beirut-based analyst Kamel Wazne of the Center for American Strategic Studies told VOA that the focus of anti-Assad nations on a military response in Syria is misguided.
"We see Syrian children not being taken care for because there's not enough money allocated to alleviate the pain and the suffering.... but we see all of the sudden countries - Arab countries and Western countries - wanting to put billions and billions for war. I think that's a failure of leadership."
Wazne said Free Syrian Army rebels who believe American involvement will end the war underestimate the strength of rival Islamist militants who have drawn jihadis from other parts of the region to fight the Assad government.
"I don't want to see a country next to my country in Lebanon headed by extremists, by al-Qaida, by terrorist organizations that cause a threat to me in my own country," Wazne said.

John Kerry should apply restraint to his utterances, he may be disappointed in the long run. His president may not be as keen to carry out the threat of a strike, those he hypes it like his life depends on it. This is his last term in office and he may allow it to drift. As for Assad's threat, it's as empty as it can get. What is not lacking in it is the desire to apply more terrorist attacks - after all he has Iran and Russia to supply weapons to terrorists anyhow they want it.
Already the Opposition group is made up of a conglomeration of terrorist groups from all over Asia and the Middle East. Expectedly terrorist groups from African may have joined them. And those now opposing the strike stress on the US, UN, NATO or EU allying with those terrorists. That's a draw back, though. Here therefore we emphasize the need for regime change so that Syria be not left in the hands of terrorists at the end. However the UN wants to achieve this is its business
By Navi Pillay's contribution from the UN High Commission for Human Rights, the green light has been given for the strike. Whatever else is delaying the action is the unwillingness of those concerned to go ahead with the plan. The rebels relinquished, Maaloula, a Christian town as a gesture to the West for help, but will they continue this gesture if they are helped to take over from Assad? What about the two bishops and a priest that have been abducted and yet to be released?
This is all the more reason a regime change should be part of the international community's agenda until a proper arrangement is reached to ensure separation of powers and separation of religion from politics. If that is not done, the aim of the rebels might be to establish an Islamic republic that will alienate most of the citizens in favor of their religion - worse case scenario. To remove a dictator who thinks nothing in killing innocent civilians with a gas bomb is not a misguided mission.

A tricky scenario is playing out here. Never has a war been hyped to this magnitude since the end of WW2. The whole scenario appears headed to a dramatic end. Mr. Obama is going to surprise everybody when he comes up to declare that he has been unable to muster enough support locally and internationally to enable him go ahead with his planned campaign in Syria. Mr. Kerry will be the most disappointed of all when it happens.
However, another school of thought says if Obama ever goes ahead to strike Syria, it will be because he wants to use it as a bargain with al qaida and sundry terrorist groups to hand them over a place near Israel by removing Assad in return for all other places of conflict between the US and the terrorists.
If the president chickens out of a strike, he will say it would have been because of the danger it poses to Israel and other allies in the region. But if he goes ahead with it, it is because he has seen its vintage to the terrorists in proximity to Israel. While the president has not made a boast of it, he has not done much either, to hide his dislike for Israel. So whichever way the president goes in this much orchestrated strike, the outcome is going to be disappointing. This is because, as an Iranian minster has observed, the president's prevarication is his desire to find a way round the strike. But a strike will be more credible than a chickening out. Mr. president is going to disappoint everybody, no matter what direction he goes. Already he has shown himself not one to rely on to take pragmatic action at a time like this.

I am honestly blindsided by Kerry being the one person more anxious to start war than anyone else. It's almost like he had his mind made up, and he get's angry when other solutions are pondered. He's seemingly became the very entity and person he once tried to warn you about.... times ten.

It doesn't matter what the conversion rate of the currency is you moron. What good does it do you to live in Australia and convert your money to US dollars?
Obviously, if you're making minimum wage you don't even have extra cash to move to America. That makes all this currency conversion talk even more irrelevant.
And this guy had the nerve to call someone else an idiot.

Such a dumb meme.
Cost of living is very high in Australia, $16 there has the same purchasing power as $10 in the States. 2 Bedroom flats in Central Sydney run around $1500-$2000 per week, if you want to buy your looking at over $850k for something basic. Eastern suburbs is a bit cheaper, $800-$1000 per week, $700k+ minimum to buy. Gas is around $6.00 per gallon.
I'm not gonna lie though, its worth every penny.

There was an article I read where someone wanted to buy Photoshop, and it ended up being cheaper to fly to the US, buy it retail, and fly back, than to buy it there.

1. It's AUD to USD, and the AUD is currently worth more than the USD...1 AUD will get you 1.03 USD
2. It's already been said, but just because the conversion rate is identical doesn't mean you end up saving more money than an American. Cost of living is a huge factor. Another factor is taxes...but fu*k that....main point is you're an idiot
3. India's a sh*thole...the ratio of poverty to wealth is staggering and the education system over there is literally one of the worst in the world. There are some clever Indian's but for every clever Indian, there's a dozen idiots.
4. If you're living in Australia making $16 an hour, it would take a hell of a lot longer than 5 years to save $1 million. In fact, it would take just over 7 years, working 24 hours a day (fu*king impossible) or it would take 30 years (40 hour work weeks and $0 in expenses)...more likely it would take 50 years to save up $1mn from a minimum wage job...and guess what....FUUUUUCK THAT. Get an education and make guap and then invest.
Good luck little retard.

i know how economics work....
but i don't understand how we can make 40-50k in a warehouse
with no seniority or title and our dollars have been at parity for the better part of
3 yrs now and we still have not seen the benefit of it over here!!! or really ever!!!
but america has a.ssistant managers at pharmaceutical companies making 8 dollars and hour.
what a joke, don't they know you will only ever get people who take those meager earnings and the will most undoubtedly will be unskilled or lower for said job.. unless you create and employment crisis... I wonder where they do that at?

While it is correct to look at the cost of living, some of you are trippin saying that it's all completely relative. Minimum wage isn't always AT the cost of living, sometimes it is grossly under, or fairly over. For instance, here in British Columbia, the minimum wage is $10 an hour, and it's going to go up to 12. But the cost of living for a single person is a minimum of $17 an hour, as indicated by studies (that number might be higher now). Likewise, I'm sure in a place like Sweden or Norway, their minimum wage is probably ABOVE their minimum cost of living, because they don't run their countries like psychopaths. I don't know the numbers in AUS, but it is entirely possible that, even though the cost of living is higher, the minimum wage is higher than cost of living (and that might be the case in some places in America, too). Point being, you are not necessarily equally broke on minimum wage everywhere you go, like some of you are trying to say.

I haven't read most of this stuff but you need to realize, in Australia, that minimum wage covers absolutely nothing. In America, it's around $99.00 for a pair of last season Asics runners. In Australia, those runners will still retail at $259.95. We have better wages, but don't get it confused, we pay double on most items than I'm sure it would cost in America.
Our housing affordability is pretty much non - existent, the cost to buy cars here is ridiculous. It's one of things, the grass is always greener, Australian's want to move to America, and American's think our wages are pretty good. No matter what, people take these things for granted.

Sicily statement on classification and development of evidence-based practice learning assessment tools

BMC Medical Education 2011, 11:78 doi:10.1186/1472-6920-11-78Published: 5 October 2011
Teaching the steps of evidence-based practice (EBP) has become standard curriculum for health professions at both student and professional levels. Determining the best methods for evaluating EBP learning is hampered by a dearth of valid and practical assessment tools and by the absence of guidelines for classifying the purpose of those that exist. Conceived and developed by delegates of the Fifth International Conference of Evidence-Based Health Care Teachers and Developers, the aim of this statement is to provide guidance for purposeful classification and development of tools to assess EBP learning.
This paper identifies key principles for designing EBP learning assessment tools, recommends a common taxonomy for new and existing tools, and presents the Classification Rubric for EBP Assessment Tools in Education (CREATE) framework for classifying such tools. Recommendations are provided for developers of EBP learning assessments and priorities are suggested for the types of assessments that are needed. Examples place existing EBP assessments into the CREATE framework to demonstrate how a common taxonomy might facilitate purposeful development and use of EBP learning assessment tools.
The widespread adoption of EBP into professional education requires valid and reliable measures of learning. Limited tools exist with established psychometrics. This international consensus statement strives to provide direction for developers of new EBP learning assessment tools and a framework for classifying the purposes of such tools.

Astros report: Porter support shifts in face of pitchers' criticisms
DETROIT — Some Astros pitchers don't like the club's increased use of defensive shifts.

Rivivos Efraim 8 page 400 says that one should say Tachanun at a Bar Mitzva and also has a letter from Rabbi Nosson Gestetner which says that Tachanun should be said at a Bar Mitzva as it is not listed in Orach Chaim 131:4-6 as one of the times it should not be said.

Three very different books are covered this week - the first a vital read on choosing or building a cruising boat that will be seaworthy, the second a series of rivetting and adventurous tales by cruiser and writer Peter Muilenburg, and finally, for those in UK waters - or ever likely to be - a new Guide to North Brittany and the Channel Islands:
Seaworthiness the Forgotten Factor
Seaworthiness The Forgotten Factor, by C.A. Machaj
Review by David Pierce
This is one of the most important books ever published on what makes a vessel seaworthy and easy to handle offshore. Unfortunately, in choosing a voyaging yacht, some people tend to go with what the magazines are pushing for their advertisers.
Remember, the advertisers control editorial policy in most of today's boating publications. There is also confusion between what is 'modern' and what is merely the latest fashion. Finally, there are always a great many vessels, said to be designed for offshore, which were created by imitating characteristics forced on ocean racers by the racing rules.
If people chose their boats with the aid of the knowledge in this book they would avoid all of this and be safer and a great deal more comfortable at sea. With the proper boat, travel at sea is one of the safest ways of getting about the globe.
This book tells you what works and why.
One wonderful characteristic is that there is both very readable text and extensive math. This allows the average sailor to ignore the math but know that virtually everything in the book is firmly grounded in science. It also allows the naval architect to use the math to refine his or her reasoning.
Intending long range cruisers really should be applying the concepts in this book when choosing vessels.
The book is available at Amazon for a range of prices, dependent on age and condition, by clicking here.
Adrift on a Sea of Blue Light - by Peter Muilenburg
Review by Jan Smith who cruises with her artist husband Bruce Smith on their gaff ketch 'Woodwind'
Breath was built on the beach in Round Bay, St. John, in the early 80s by the Muilenburgs and launched by hundreds of friends and a bulldozer, all to carry this amazing couple and their two young sons on ocean-going adventures. Twice to the Med and Africa, several trips to the U.S. East Coast, back and forth with the seasons to South America. They sailed her to Haiti on missions of humanity, to Cuba for curiosity and nearly lost her once when they sailed onto a Bahamian reef. Fortunately, though, Breath lives on and so do the stories collected along the way.
For instance, what were the chances the Muilenburgs would be reunited with their personality-plagued dog, Santos, a Schipperke, after he fell overboard five miles off the Venezuelan coast? And when Breath was wrestled out of their control by the fierce current of Africa's Gambia River, colliding with electric wires that shot dancing flames to the deck and down below, how was it they eventually found the friend, the son and the dog that were sent into the sea?
Those stories and dozens more, as true as the teller himself, now reside together in Peter's book, 'Adrift on a Sea of Blue Light.' Reading it was a wonderful interruption of life, as once I dove in I couldn't climb out. The end of one adventure pulled me into the next, and what didn't cause me to marvel, to wonder, to laugh … made me cry. It's a book I'll read again very soon.
