The decision by St. Elizabeth's to relocate from Belleville to O'Fallon is a huge disappointment. However, many of the comments posted on BND are far more troublesome and something I've seen before. I'm talking about comments like "Belleville is the next East St. Louis" and "this is the final nail in the coffin." The first comment is clearly racist, and both indicate a total lack of civic responsibility.
If you see problems in the community, you have a choice: You can be part of the problem or part of the solution.
If you do, or think about doing, any of the following, you're part of the problem: writing negative, mean-spirited comments on the BND's various platforms, spreading negative opinions, bashing city leaders or threatening to move because you think the city has "gone downhill." These behaviors serve no purpose; no problems are solved and they feed the misperception that Belleville isn't a good place to live or play. Simply put, you are dragging everyone down.
Each of us has a civic responsibility beyond paying taxes, voting and obeying laws. This means focusing on the community's common good by actively participating in an informed, committed and constructive manner.
If you care about your community, call your aldermen. Ask how you can help, bring ideas to neighborhood meetings, show respect as well as dissent, seek volunteer opportunities and most importantly, bring a positive, can-do attitude to whatever you're involved in.
There are a lot of great things happening in Belleville -- let's focus on that and fix the rest.

Productivity, Motivation, and Personal Development Links – 7th March 2010
I cannot believe we are into March already!
I have a very important exam at the end of March so I am taking most of March to study for this exam so that I hopefully pass the exam. It is a 2 day lab based exam and not easy so wish me luck!
Here are my collection of links for this week.
- My first link for this week is to a great email productivity tool called AwayFind. I have been using AwayFind for a good few months and it really is my email savior. I have just been sent an invite to the Private Beta of version 2.0 so I thought I would add it to my links as I will be no doubt covering all the new features in a new blog post.
- My second link is a link to a great detailed post showing you how to save Safari Browsing Sessions to Evernote. This post shows you how with the help of a little AppleScript you can get all your active Safari tabs saved into Evernote. Great helpful post.
- My third link is to the a post titled How to get stuff done fast! – accelerated productivity using GTD. Another great blog post that covers blitzing your productivity with the awesome GTD Methodology!
- My fourth link is a link to a nice post titled Time Management Techniques for Ambitious Entrepreneurs and Aspiring Millionaires. The title is pretty self explanatory and this is a nice post to read that covers some aspects of time management for the entrepreneur.
- My fifth and last link is a link to Part 1 of a Series of Getting Things Done with a Mac. This first part covers workflow and also introduces the basic concepts of the Getting Things Done (GTD) Methodology.

West Nile is a viral infection first isolated in 1937 in Uganda. West Nile virus can affect humans, horses, and many types of birds. It is carried by mosquitoes, which become carriers by feeding on infected birds. The first case in Oregon was reported in Malheur County in August 2004.
Please consider vaccination or a booster for your horses. The best time to do this is before the start of mosquito season in your area.

Symptoms of the virus in equines
The virus causes an inflammation of the brain. Equines who contract the virus can experience lethargy, lack of coordination, stumbling, confusion, fever, stiffness, muscle twitching, depression, and weakness in the legs. About one-third of infected horses die.
Protect your horses through immunization
Since the virus is now endemic in Oregon, it is important to vaccinate your horses. The vaccine requires two doses given three to six weeks apart. Immunity may not be achieved until up to six weeks after the second dose, and some horses may require a third vaccination.
An annual booster should be given prior to the start of the mosquito season in your area. Consult your veterinarian for more information on immunizing your horses against West Nile Virus.
If you suspect your horse is infected with West Nile Virus
Contact your veterinarian for an examination. Veterinarians are required to report horses with the appropriate clinical signs. Contact the Oregon Dept. of Agriculture at (503) 986-4760 before submitting any samples for testing.
West Nile Virus in humans
Humans can only get the virus from the bite of an infected mosquito; the disease does not spread from other animals to humans, or from person to person. The illness causes no symptoms in 80 percent of those who are infected. Of those who develop an infection, most are mild, with fever and flu-like symptoms. About one in 150 develops severe illness, including coma, convulsions, paralysis and vision loss. The most severe cases, as well as most deaths, occur in those over 55 who have conditions such as diabetes or hypertension or chronic illness.
Minimize the threat of exposure to West Nile Virus
- In addition to vaccinating your horses, the best way to minimize the threat of West Nile for your and your horses is to control mosquito populations and prevent exposure to them.
- Eliminate sources of standing water that can serve as a breeding ground for mosquitoes, including children's wading pools, old tires, buckets, and other containers.
- Change water in bird baths weekly.
- Consider avoiding outdoor activities from dusk until dawn or take extra care to use repellent and protective clothing during evening and early morning.
- When possible, wear long sleeves, long pants and socks when outdoors.
- Treating clothes with repellents containing permethrin or DEET will provide extra protection, since mosquitoes may bite through thin clothing. Do not apply repellents containing permethrin or DEET directly to skin. Here are some tips for using DEET safely.
Veterinarians: Submit samples of possible cases for testing
The Center for Disease Control and Prevention has given the Oregon Department of Human Services a grant to be used to test equines or bird (or other animals) suspected of being infected with WNV. There is no charge for this testing. Please use the sample submission form below.

The Gronk is not the only show in town for the Patriots. In fact, I would go as far as to say that he owes a lot of his success to the other--quieter--tight end on the Patriots squad, Aaron Hernandez. Both are top notch, No. 1 options for a passing game. When they are actually healthy and on the field at the same time matching up with them defensively is challenging to say the least. If a certain situation that Hernandez is embroiled in does not get cleared up who knows if the dynamic duo will be putting their wonder twin powers together next season. TerezOwens.com has posted a short story that alludes to the possibility that Hernandez may have a legal issue brewing in regards to some incident involving a gun/shooting. There is not much to go on right now with the story, but Terez was able to come across the following letter from a lawyer to Hernandez: Hmmm...as you can see, there is not much to go on right now; I'm not sure where Terez is getting anything about a...

2010 Nissan SentraChange
2010 Nissan Sentra Expert Review:Autoblog
The Nissan Sentra has long been the bridesmaid of America's C-segment. Few consider it to be best-in-class, yet it would be a stretch to call Nissan's second-smallest sedan the category's cellar dweller. In the past, the Sentra hasn't been the fastest, it hasn't been the prettiest and it certainly hasn't offered the best interior, but the affordable sedan has quietly continued to sell well enough to keep Nissan in the picture.
Unlike some of its more popular competitors, the Sentra is offered exclusively as a sedan, while other automakers offer coupes or hatchbacks. Nissan makes up for this deficiency in part by offering six different variants of the Sentra, ranging from a base 2.0 model to the 200-horsepower SE-R Spec V. We had the chance to spend a week in the mildly refreshed 2010 SE-R model that slots in just below the Spec V, and with 177 horsepower on tap and quite a few high-end options, we wanted to find out if this upper-middle child could hold its own in what has fast become one of the most interesting and competitive segments in the market.
Photos by Chris Shunk / Copyright ©2010 Weblogs, Inc.
All Sentra models receive updates for 2010, with tweaks to their headlights and taillights, a new front fascia and grille and a lower MSRP. More specifically, all SE-R models also received attractive 17-inch wheels, a standard 4.3-inch color display with USB connectivity and updated instrument panel accents. The biggest news is two-fold: The SE-R's price tag drops by $1,080 versus the 2009 model and Nissan has introduced a new low cost navigation system on the 2010 model.
One glance at the 2010 Nissan Sentra SE-R, and we were immediately taken aback by its surprising size – particularly its height and length. This "compact" sedan is actually one of the largest entries in its class. It's the widest vehicle at 70.5 inches, besting competitors like the Toyota Corolla and Honda Civic, and it's within a half inch of the Mazda3 in length. The Sentra is so broad-of-beam that it's within two-tenths of an inch of Nissan's own midsize Altima, and the "smaller" sedan is more than a full inch taller. Our SE-R tester is also the second heaviest vehicle among its competitors, tipping the scales at a rotund 3,115 pounds. That's even heavier than the all-wheel drive Subaru Impreza and second in tonnage only to the portly Volkswagen Jetta. Even the Altima comes in only 65 pounds heavier.
We were surprised at how close the Sentra was to the Altima in many dimensions, and shopping for a sedan in a Nissan showroom gets even more complicated when considering the Sentra's downmarket sibling, the Versa. The so-called B-segment Versa is a big boy in-and-of-itself, just three inches shorter and slightly narrower than the Sentra, while coming in (amazingly) one inch taller. Naturally, this causes us to wonder how many Sentra sales are lost to the Versa. Sure the Versa has 55 fewer ponies in 1.8 SL trim, but it's also over 500 pounds lighter, available in both sedan and hatch configurations, and starts at $4,000 fewer bucks to boot.
The Sentra's overly generous height and long wheelbase conspire to create some odd proportions, and to our eyes, the resulting design looks awkward and narrow – there's just no getting around the very tall, incredibly bulbous greenhouse. On the bright side, our SE-R tester did have some nice-looking features that differentiate it from its less sporty siblings. For starters, the SE-R's new 17-inch wheels help give the Sentra's profile some added visual pop. Also added are bodyside moldings and a restrained rear wing that lends the slightest amount of sporting pretense.
Nissan has added more SE-R cues inside the cabin, where a pair of leather buckets await front seat occupants. The thrones are incredibly comfortable and well-bolstered, giving the Sentra a more upscale feel. Unfortunately, that initial impression of quality quickly departed upon closer inspection of the rather bland dashboard laden with low quality, hard-to-the-touch plastics. If the SE-R didn't come with twin pod meters displaying oil pressure and lateral acceleration(!), along with Nissan's new low-cost navigation system, the interior would have looked like a barren landscape of automotive-grade Tupperware.
But while the Sentra's interior is nothing to look at (or touch, for that matter), the layout and functionality of buttons and knobs are well executed. There's something to be said for a vehicle that's incredibly easy to operate from Day One, and the Sentra's large knobs and steering wheel controls are as intuitive as they come. While it's true that the Sentra's overstuffed dimensions make for a pretty bland-looking sedan, once you get behind the wheel, those extra inches work to your advantage.
Nissan's new $400 system was designed for lower cost, high volume vehicles like the Sentra, and while it's not as sophisticated as other systems we've sampled, it's also about a quarter of the price. Despite the discount, it still comes complete with a 4.3-inch, touch-sensitive LCD screen and the ability to interface with iPods and MP3 players while also working with Bluetooth-equipped phones to deliver hands-free calling.
As much as we'd like the Sentra's interior quality to improve, all would be forgiven if the SE-R lived up to its sporting ancestry. After all, we adored the original B13 SE-R of the early Nineties, and the $4,000 premium over the base Sentra means that this model ought to live up to once-formidable badge. Dolling out 177 horsepower and 172 pound-feet of torque from its 2.5-liter four-cylinder, the SE-R had enough power to push 3,115 pounds of sedan, but it never managed to set our blood to boil – or really get it much above room temperature. Redline comes at a pedestrian 6,000 RPM, with maximum torque available at 2,800 RPM. The 2.5-liter mill delivers smooth acceleration (we'd estimate 0-60 at between 7.5 and 8 seconds) that's a bit better than what you'd expect in a C-Segment sedan, but it doesn't sound or feel race-inspired and the SE-R's XTronic continuously variable transmission (CVT) dashes any hopes of enthusiastic driving.
The CVT – essentially a gearless transmission – keeps the engine in the optimal RPM range at all times in order to improve performance and efficiency. But unlike other CVT-equipped vehicles, we found ourselves using the paddle shifters to provide six forward shifting points and avoid the feeling of the shiftless transmission for performance purposes. It worked, but just barely. To compound matters, the CVT didn't appear to do much to improve fuel economy either – we only managed a marginal 23 miles-per-gallon during moderate to heavy driving with a 60/40 highway/city mix.
But the story got a bit better when it came to ride and handling. The sport-tuned suspension offered a bit of an edge, without punishing the SE-R's occupants on imperfect roads. And while the speed variable electronic steering has a nice heft to it, the tiller lacks some feedback for our tastes. When tackling turns at higher velocities, we noticed more than a little body roll – not surprising given the Sentra's high ride height – but for a vehicle billed as a sporting runabout, there was more lean than we expected. Coupled with the aforementioned vague steering, the SE-R doesn't exactly offer a recipe for confident backroad carving. Beyond sport-tuned spring rates, the only other major hardware update for the SE-R is up-sized 17-inch wheels mated to P225/45VR17 Continental ContiProContact tires that aid in keeping this up-level Sentra connected with the road.
We did experience a few bouts of torque steer when accelerating hard from a stop, and in each instance the SE-R pulled to the right on dry pavement – again, not confidence-inspiring. Braking was solid thanks to standard four-wheel disc brakes (11.7 inches up front and 11.5 inches in the rear), but you may want to step up to the Spec V model with its larger 12.6-inch front rotors to keep braking distances and rotor temps in check if you're into canyon runs or track days.
After a few days behind the wheel of the Nissan Sentra SE-R, we found ourselves somewhere between uninterested and nearly satisfied. Not the sort of emotions that attract us to a new car. The Sentra scored points for comfort, ease-of-use and general spaciousness, and we commend Nissan for offering an inexpensive in-dash navigation option. But does a cheap navi and WYSIWYG functionality enough to justify a $22,000 price tag for this Sentra SE-R? Not really. The Sentra's interior materials are just too cheap and the SE-R's performance too pedestrian to justify its higher price tag (let alone its once-storied SE-R badge). From where we sit, Nissan either needs to get serious about the Sentra or its compact sedan will never end up at that altar; unless it's in charge of fluffing the bride's dress.

Second Opinion: 2010 Nissan Sentra SL
Even with the light once-over it received for 2010, the Nissan Sentra doesn't have a sporting bone in its body. While that may prove disappointing to those considering the above SE-R (or the even pricier Spec-V), for a large segment of the population, there's no shame in pursuing that game. All of this is to say, SE-R buyers, wouldn't you rather just save some coin and have an SL?
In addition to the boy-racer SE-R, we spent a wintery week with a loaded-up Sentra SL in Michigan and Ohio, and while no pulses were raised during our time with the car, it acquitted itself well and received a surprising number of compliments while ferrying people about.
First things first – this car is easy to drive. Given that tiller steering and external brake levers have long since disappeared off the face of the automotive landscape, that may not sound like a particularly big accomplishment, but it is. Not only are all the major controls where they should be, all the minor ones are as well. The rotary HVAC controls are the very model of efficiency, the Bluetooth was easy to pair and use, and the SL's new 4.3-inch color display on the audio system head unit (with USB integration and satellite radio) wasn't just crisp, it may have been the most intuitive iPod interface we've ever used. Admittedly, the dashboard is a sea of hard plastics, but with the right color interior (tan), it doesn't look particularly cheap, particularly when paired with the optional leather seating surfaces and with the aforementioned slick stereo display drawing one's eyeballs. One well-heeled rear-seat passenger even commented that the interior was surprisingly luxurious and almost Lexus-like.
That might sound like a bit of ridiculous hyperbole, but he has a point: Like, say, Lexus' ES350, the Sentra SL is an utter snooze dynamically, and all of its edges have been chamfered off for safe, comfy, thought-free motoring. Those exact qualities are important to a lot of people, even if that sort of priority list is alien to most Autoblog staffers and readers.
Admittedly, if you stick your boot in the 2.0-liter in-line four, the Xtronic CVT gearbox will produce that dreaded stretched rubber-brand drone as it surges to make the most of 140 horses and 147 pound-feet of torque. But if you drive as conservatively as we imagine most Sentra drivers do, you'll never notice anything but the handsome fuel economy figures (26 city/34 highway). The rest of the SL's dynamic envelope is as safe as houses – and about as unremarkable.
What we have here, then, is a great car for thrifty seniors and non-car types who might be put off by a Honda Civic's low-slung seating and spacey two-tier dashboard or a Mazda3's firm ride. Are those competitors better? From an enthusiast's standpoint, no question. But for a large group of buyers, the Sentra will still have a certain modest charm about it.

New Car Test Drive
Stylish, roomy, upscale fun-to-drive compact sedan.
The Nissan Sentra is a compact sedan that offers much more than a first impression might suggest. It's bigger than it looks, so it opens up to a roomy interior. It offers a commendable level of features, sophistication, safety and technology. And it's fun to drive, so just because you're saving money on gas doesn't mean the commute, or the vacation trip, has to be boring. Finally, it's stylish in a way that looks more expensive than the window sticker indicates.
The Sentra, available as a four-door sedan only (there is no hatchback or two-door model) was designed for the American market and American buyers. The spacious cabin is finished like that of a more expensive car and it has comfortable and supportive seats. There's a 60/40-split rear seat that folds flat, opening up the trunk space and creating a large flat cargo area that's handy for hauling long items.
The Sentra is fun to drive, with a level of performance and handling that's a pleasant surprise in a compact sedan. It's powered by a 2.0-liter four-cylinder of 140 horsepower, which is matched to a very nice six-speed manual in the base car, with a continuously variable transmission (CVT) optional in the base car and standard on all other trim levels. It is EPA-rated at 24 mpg City, 31 mpg Highway with the manual and a very thrifty 26/34 mpg with the CVT.
There are two high-performance versions: The Sentra SE-R has a 2.5-liter engine with 177 horsepower and the CVT; its fuel economy figures are 24/30 mpg City/Highway. The even higher performance SE-R Spec V has the 2.5-liter engine, but upgraded to 200 horsepower and fitted with a six-speed manual; it is EPA-rated at 21/28 mpg City/Highway. The SE-R models also have suspension modifications for sharper handling. Even though they offer higher levels of power and handling, they're easy to live with, offer all the advantages of the standard Sentra and still deliver good fuel economy.
For 2010, Nissan Sentra gets several upgrades. Headlamps and taillights are new. 2010 Sentra 2.0 models have new grille and front-end designs. Inside are revised seat upholstery and door trim, for 2010, and freshened instrument panel accents and illumination. There have also been changes to the options, including new Technology and Navigation Packages; the Navigation Package includes XM NavTraffic Real-Time Traffic Information. The upper-end 2.0 SL has standard Vehicle Dynamic Control (electronic stability control) and Traction Control. 2010 Sentra models also get new wheel designs and other detail exterior changes.
The Nissan Sentra represents a solid value. It's roomy inside, the engine is modern and competitive, and the chassis provides good handling and a comfortable ride. We like the continuously variable transmission. All told, if you're in the market for a compact sedan that offers a lot of value in a lot of areas, the Sentra deserves your attention.
The Nissan Sentra comes in six models: 2.0, 2.0 S, 2.0 SR, 2.0 SL, SE-R, and SE-R Spec V.
The Sentra 2.0 models come with Nissan's 2.0-liter four-cylinder aluminum engine, making 140 horsepower and 147 pound-feet of torque. The standard transmission is a high-tech and fuel-efficient Nissan Xtronic continuously variable transmission (CVT), but a six-speed manual is available with the base 2.0.
The Sentra 2.0 ($15,420 with manual transmission, $16,600 with CVT) comes with cloth seats, air conditioning, interior air filter, tilt steering wheel, remote manual mirrors, four-way adjustable manual front seats, 60/40-split fold-down rear seats, power windows, power door locks, electric power steering, AM/FM/CD stereo with four speakers, auxiliary audio input jack, theft-deterrent system, and P205/60R15 tires on steel wheels with wheel covers. Anti-lock brakes and electronic stability control are optional as a package ($510). Other options include a read deck-lid spoiler ($210), floor mats ($110), an auto-dimming mirror ($125), splash guards ($140), and interior accent lighting ($300).
The 2.0 S ($17,160) adds a height adjustment for the driver's seat, power exterior mirrors, remote keyless entry, cruise control, illuminated steering wheel audio controls, a six-speaker sound system, vehicle information display, and P205/55R16 tires. ABS with electronic brake-force distribution is standard. A Convenience Package ($850) for the 2.0 S includes a leather-wrapped steering wheel, Bluetooth wireless cell phone link, power trunk release, and Intelligent Key keyless entry and ignition. Optional for the 2.0 S is Vehicle Dynamic Control with Traction Control ($370), plus the features available for the 2.0.
The 2.0 SR ($17,160) is equipped identically to the 2.0 S, but has a sportier appearance, with a sport grille, unique front and rear fascia treatments, side sill spoilers, rear decklid spoiler with integrated brake light, smoked headlights and taillights, driving lights, exhaust tip, and SR badging on the rear deck.
The 2.0 SL ($18,560) gets leather upholstery, leather-wrapped steering wheel, Intelligent Key, Bluetooth hands-free cell phone link, XM Satellite Radio, and alloy wheels. Options include a Premium Package ($700) with moonroof, illuminated visor vanity mirrors, cargo net and hooks; a Premium Plus Package ($850) with all of the above plus heated front seats; a Technology Package ($880) with a 340-watt eight-speaker Rockford Fosgate AM/FM radio with six-disc CD/MP3 and a RearView Monitor; navigation ($400); and leather ($700).
The SE-R ($19,580) features a 2.5-liter four-cylinder that makes 177 hp and 172 pound-feet of torque and it is mated to a CVT. The SE-R comes with a sports suspension, a rear spoiler and P225/45R17 all-season tires. Optional with the SE-R is the SE-R Upgrade Package ($2,050) with moonroof, dual visor vanity mirrors, XM Satellite Radio, RearView Monitor, Intelligent Key with keyless ignition, and the 340-watt Rockford Fosgate audio system.
The SE-R Spec V ($20.080) comes with the 2.5-liter engine tuned to produce 200 hp and 180 pound-feet of torque, and a six-speed manual gearbox. The SE-R Spec V has a performance suspension and W-rated P225/45R17 tires. It deletes the folding rear seat. Optional is a Spec V Upgrade Package ($2,200), which is identical to the SE-R Upgrade Package except that it also includes a Helical Limited-Slip Differential.
Both SE-R models include Vehicle Dynamic Control, Nissan's electronic stability control system, which includes Traction Control; anti-lock brakes; Electronic Brake-force Distribution (EBD); AM/FM/CD/USB audio unit with six speakers, 160 watts and a 4.3-inch color display; and a leather-wrapped steering wheel.
Safety equipment includes dual-stage front airbags, front side airbags, full-length curtain airbags, active front-seat headrests, and a tire-pressure monitor. Antilock brakes with electronic brake-force distribution are standard on all but the 2.0, where they are optional.
The Nissan Sentra is larger than the subcompact Versa and smaller than the midsize Altima. From every angle, it looks like the latest-generation Nissans. With its crisp character lines, the Sentra resembles a scaled down Altima. We like the new front end; it manages to look both cleaner and richer and more upscale, all at once. The previous look was sort of angular, with the fog lamps in sharp-edged openings and what seemed like a lot of cuts and creases, but the new front end is smoother. The grille opening looks like that of a more expensive car, and the integration of the grille, lower air intake, headlamps and fog lamps is much cleaner and less busy.
The new look also works well with the short overhangs, which give the Sentra a sporty, assertive appearance.
Along the sides, only widened bodywork around the wheels breaks up the clean, attractive doors and quarter panels. A character line rises from the front door back to a tall trunk, giving the Sentra a bit of a rake. Large door openings make it easy to climb in and out, and a high, distinctive rear deck offers ample trunk space.
The contemporary Nissan appearance continues at the rear, where the high trunk lid is flanked by white and red taillights that have a Nissan family look. The long roof line resolves itself in a short trunk lid.
Sentra SE-R models have more aggressive front and rear fascias, side sill extensions that visually lower the car, a rear spoiler, and beefy, low-profile 17-inch tires on alloy wheels.
No matter what Sentra you choose, you'll make no compromises in looks, comfort, safety or style, to have this inexpensive compact car in your driveway.
The Nissan Sentra is a good choice for drivers who spend a lot of time in their cars. For example, the locking glovebox is deep enough to hold a laptop computer. There is also an available integrated removable CD holder on the headliner above the driver's sun visor. The front of the center console has a tray for items such as cell phones, as well as two cupholders that are adjustable for 20-ounce bottles or 32-ounce mega cups. Pockets with see-through netting are provided on the backs of the front seats for passengers' cell phones and iPods.
The Sentra's interior volume measures 97.4 cubic feet, more than many of its competitors. The trunk measures 13.1 cubic feet (12.0 cubic feet for the SE-R Spec V). To increase cargo space, the 60/40 split rear seat can be folded flat, to open up the space into the trunk (due to a structural bulkhead, the SE-R Spec V lacks the folding seat). There's no problem fitting a bicycle or maybe two back there, through the trunk; two friendly people could even sleep back there.
We've spent time with a bare-bones Sentra 2.0 with cloth seats, a fully equipped 2.0 SL with leather, and a SE-R Spec V with its sport seats. We liked all of them.
We loved the supportive feel of the cloth seats; they embrace your back like a good hug, and are neither too firm nor too soft. The available leather is plush for a compact car; there's no reason to ride in a penalty box just because you're trying to save gas. The SE-R's sport seats are better bolstered and have a grippy fabric to keep the driver in place during enthusiastic cornering. They also get more flair, with special stitching and red seat belts on the Spec V.
The four-speaker sound system in the 2.0 was okay, while the eight-speaker Rockford Fosgate audio system with in-dash six-CD in the 2.0 SL was great.
A long wheelbase with short overhangs results in agreeable legroom for the rear-seat passengers. The back seats are relatively flat, however, so they won't be comfortable for long trips.
The instrument panel might be the nicest aspect of the interior. Again, it is very stylish, and functional, too. The instruments are sharp, the controls easy to operate, and the center stack features a strong-looking shift lever rising out at an agreeable angle, where it's easy to grab and operate. The trim around it all is a handsome flat silver. SE-R models get two additional gauges at the top of the center stack, one for oil pressure and one that displays acceleration and deceleration g forces.
Driving Impression
The Nissan Sentra holds its own in a world of big vehicles. The base 2.0-liter engine puts the Sentra on par with other high-tech four-cylinder engines. Boasting an aluminum block and head, continuously variable valve timing, and electronic fuel injection, the 2.0-liter makes 140 horsepower. However, the real story is its strong torque of 147 pound-feet. Torque is important because it's needed for acceleration from lower speeds, such as when accelerating from an intersection or up a steep grade, and the Sentra feels quite powerful around town and in traffic.
Our Sentra 2.0 zoomed up freeway on-ramps, and felt like it belonged in the fast lane. It ran in 80-mph traffic with ease and had no trouble cruising at 90. The engine wasn't loud and didn't feel strained at that pace, although under full-throttle acceleration it was a bit noisy from 5000 rpm up to its redline of 6500.
Fuel economy for a Sentra with the 2.0-liter engine is an EPA-rated 26/34 mpg City/Highway with the CVT transmission, and 24/31 mpg with the six-speed manual.
The CVT is now in its third generation, and the technology has improved greatly. The main benefit with a CVT is better gas mileage, a result of less internal friction. With only two ranges, high and low, it's smoother because there's less shifting, though the sound is odd, as if the car is winding up like a snowmobile. Floor the gas pedal and the Sentra surges ahead aggressively.
The Sentra SE-R Spec V feels docile in traffic, in spite of the performance from its 200-horsepower 2.5-liter four-cylinder. It makes its best power near redline, from 6600-7000 rpm, so you need to drive it enthusiastically to get the most out of it. It doesn't feel high-strung, however. It's easy to live with and provides that extra bit of oomph when you want to play. The Spec V comes with an easy-shifting six-speed manual transmission and the clutch works with ease, making the Spec V feel more like an everyday driver than a sport compact.
The suspension on all Sentras is struts in front with a torsion beam in the rear: the rear is a compact design with separate shocks and coil springs that allows more room for the trunk that's above it. In its base form, the suspension is forgiving. In its most aggressive state, in the SE-R Spec V (with higher-rate springs, shocks and bushings), it's firm in a quality kind of way, yet never harsh or uncomfortable. It feels rugged and inspires confidence out there in the cruel world of roadway realities. It even felt comfortable over a series of Chicago potholes. We haven't driven the standard SE-R, but we suspect it is also quite comfortable.
We had the opportunity to drive the SE-R Spec V at the fast 4.0-mile Road America circuit near Elkhart Lake, Wisconsin. We found it to be fun but not razor sharp. The engine revved predictably, without climbing too quickly for the driver to keep up with gear shifts. The brakes didn't fade during our high-speed lap, and the handling gave nice feedback.
We also thrashed it around an autocross course. The engine provided good power out of corners, so much so that we spun the inside wheel. We would recommend the optional limited-slip differential for anyone wanting to do parking-lot autocrosses or other hard driving in the Spec V. The car leaned more in quick, sharp turns than an autocrosser would like, and wasn't as sharp as the likes of a Mini Cooper S or BMW 1 Series. Overall, when it comes to ride and handling, the Spec V is a comfortable road car, with decent handling that provides a lot of feedback as it approaches the edge of adhesion.
The brakes felt good on the street. Base models have vented 11-inch discs in front and drums in rear. The SE-R has 11.7-inch front discs and 11.5-inch rear discs, and the SE-R Spec V gets 12.6-inch front rotors. ABS is standard on all but the base model. We recommend ABS because the anti-lock brakes allow you to brake and steer at the same time in a panic stop.
The Sentra uses electric power steering, as opposed to hydraulic. It's speed-sensitive, which means the feel is lighter when parking and heavier out on the freeway, as it should be.
The Nissan Sentra is a solid compact sedan that gets good gas mileage and offers a great value. The cabin is roomy and comfortable with nice seats and an attractive instrument panel. Sentra offers two excellent engines and a fine, forgiving chassis. The SE-R Spec V provides driving fun without being harsh or high strung. Nissan nailed this one.

flying out of Frankfurt
hello. we will be staying at the mainz koenigshof hotel 2 nights before we fly out of Frankfurt at 10:15a oct 24 on Delta. what are Frankfurt airport's requirements as far as checking-in/security? thanks. olivia
hello. we will be staying at the mainz koenigshof hotel 2 nights before we fly out of Frankfurt at 10:15a oct 24 on Delta. what are Frankfurt airport's requirements as far as checking-in/security? thanks. olivia
Pretty much like any other airport, Olivia. If you don't already have a boarding pass, or if you have luggage to check (no one does that anymore, do they?), you check in. Then you go through outgoing immigration, where they will scan your passport and note that you are leaving Schengen, then you go through security on your way to your gate. The last time I left from Frankfurt, I only had to go through German security to get to the gate, but the last time out of Munich, there was also TSA security at the gate before I could board. I think I allowed 2½ hours at the airport, just to be safe, but it left me a lot of time to wait at the gate. The S-Bahn takes you to the Regionalbahnhof, under the building across the access road from Terminal 1. You just go through the mall under the road and up the escalators and you are in the departure hall. If you are flying a Star Alliance airline you checkin will be there. For some other airlines, you will need to look for signs to the Skyline, a people mover that goes from the top floor of T1 to T2. BTW, I stayed at Königshof in 2008 before flying out of FRA, and I think it is about the best place to stay near FRA.
Your main choke points will be either passport control, security or both. For some reason, immigration into the EU at FRA is very efficient and rarely involves a wait of longer than 10 minutes. I'm not sure why, but leaving always seems to take much longer.
We flew out of Frankfurt airport on Sept. 25 (I think it was) and the only thing I remember was that it was certainly better that when we left Seattle.
Shorter lines and shorter waits and more pleasant employees.
If you're going to take the train from Mainz to Frankfurt airport keep in mind that train stops underneath terminal 1 but Delta flies out of terminal 2. There is a bus shuttle from that train station to terminal 2 but all in all that's an additional 20 minutes travel time (including the wait for the next shuttle. They run every 10 minutes). Given my experience with that terminal be in terminal 2 no later than 60 minutes prior to your departure.
thank you, all. we originally planned to be at the airport 2 hrs before flight, we will make it 2 1/2 hrs. aside from the usual security, etc, we need to go to the tax refund counter - i will post another question re this. when we arrived 6 wks ago, we took a skytram from terminal 2 to 1, then went down to the train station. perhaps we can take the same tram from terminal 1 to 2 so we don't have to wait for the bus. thank you. as usual, this helpline is so helpful.
the last two times we flew back from Europe (one of these was frankfurt) the gates to our US flight were a secure area and we had to go through this extra security at the gate. Thesecurity guys kept on telling us this was a USA requirement. The other flight was really a pain to get into the gate- shoes off, belt off, everyone wanded etc. Again blamed on USA requirements. (and of course, a visit to the restrooms meant having to go through the whole prefrmance again
Brian, I believe you because I have seen that sort of thing before. But on our trips through Frankfurt in June and Otober we didnt have that happen. The General Security we had to go through was pretty efficient and well managed but this is an airport that takes a long time to get from terminal to terminal. Not one of my favorite airports but still better than places like JFK or Chucky D.
At the Frankfurt airport, it takes about 5 min. to get from terminal 1 to terminal 2, if you use the Sky Train monorail. Much easier than that bus. Security is quick and efficient with no removing of shoes, and there are lots of stores, cafes and bathrooms on the other side of security. When you get off the Regional train on track 1, under terminal 1, just head for the escalator that says Departures. Go up that and walk straight ahead, as this is B-1 and walking through here takes you to the Sky train. From the time you get off the S-bahn from Mainz, til you get to terminal 2, should only take about 5-10 min.
thank you, jo, for the details re getting to T2. my other question is the tax refund counter. where do i find this counter? i posted a separate question but no one responded. i now have 21 euros worth of refund. that would be nice to recover. btw, we fly out tomorrow. appreciate any quick response. thanks.
Let me relate our last day in Germany and in so doing, answer my own question, and hopefully help others in the future.
Mainz Hotel Konigshof serves breakfast from 6:30am on. We requested early breakfast and they were ready by 5:45am. We left the hotel at 6:30, walked across the plaza/tram stop area to the train station (2 min walk), bought one-way tickets to the airport at 4,10 euros each and took the 7:02am S8 train to the airport. The ride took around 30 minutes. We got off at the train airport stop, followed the signs that said 'Departures' and 'T2 Departures' taking several escalators and walking thru T1, got on the sky tram and arrived in T2. T2 has a D and E area and since we were on Delta, we went to the D area. We checked in easily and went thru passport control. No problem. The Global Blue tax refund counter and customs counter were on the right side after passport control. The customs counter asked for our passports and stamped our tax refund forms. Global Blue gave us back our tax refund in cash. In Germany, we shopped in 3 stores where 2 used Global Blue and the other Premier tax refund. So, we looked for the Premier tax refund counter and found it next to the currency exchange on the corridor towards security. Premier tax refund did not give us our refund in cash but told us to write our credit card number on the form which we had to drop in the green post office box on our way to security. It seems the store we shopped at didn't give cash refunds. Security was by gate number. There was security for gates 1 to 4, another for 5 to 8, etc. which dispersed the passengers and avoided any bottle neck. They had x-ray machines but we opted to be patted down. There was really no hassle to departing from FRA airport. We had a great trip. Thanks everyone for all your help.
We had one evening in Mainz before boarding train to Switzerland. We had a rental car in Germany so needed a location to drop off the car the evening before our departure (save 1 day rental) . Hotel Koenigshoff fit the bill as it is just across a plaza from the train station and Eurocar drop off was handled in the train station. This is an older building but our room was clean. Only negative was getting in and out of shower as it was a step up of almost 12 inches. Getting in wasn't a problem but getting out was a challenge as the shower floor was slippery and there was no grab rail to offer stability. Maybe if I were younger it would not have been an issue. Breakfast was filling and lots of ion. From look of other guests this looks like a businessman's hotel. Front desk did offer a restaurant suggestion, Proviantmagazin on Schillerstr. 11, 55116
Good food large ion
Nothing special like most have said. We flew American and the most time consuming thing was getting our boarding pass, even is you have priority boarding or whatever. We flew at a busy time and security was fine going to the terminal and gate.

Karen's testimony reveals the childish, jealous nature of Hank, portrayed ever more desperately pathetic and drunk. Bill adds malice and motive, and drops a bomb that squashes Hank's last bastion of innocent ignorance. By the time Mia (MADELINE ZIMA) takes the stand, Hank's cause seems all but lost...

Author Helps Readers Understand Life in SECRETS OF COLOURS
Feeling blue? Is your vision blurring red? Is the green-eyed monster a familiar face? Sometimes, color is the best way to describe emotions and experiences. Ernesto Zollo takes this one step further in his new book, "Secrets of Colours." In the book, Zollo elaborates on how colors influence energy.
"The possibilities are endless when you supercharge thought by adding color," says Zollo, a lifelong artist and teacher. "Stress is created by negative thinking, but colors have the ability to give a different, positive energy."
The workbook lets readers rank their preference to colors. Then, Zollo provides careful analysis of the reader's color preferences, offering insight into energy deficiencies and strengths. It's all a labor of love for Zollo, who has dedicated his life to studying colors and their influence on the mind. As an artist, he has exhibited around the world and as a teacher he has taught artists of all backgrounds.
"It took me over 30 years of use to fully understand color energy use," Zollo says. "I am still finding new ways to use color energy in life today. I want to empower readers to have confidence in their abilities to use color energy in thoughts and ideas."

Originally written on Fox Sports Wisconsin | Last updated 10/4/12
GREEN BAY, Wis. -- Packers wide receiver Greg Jennings has been officially ruled out for Sunday's game against the Indianapolis Colts. During Green Bay's win over the New Orleans Saints last weekend, Jennings aggravated the injury he initially suffered in Week 1 and left the game early. Jennings missed Week 2, and the two-time Pro Bowl selection has only 12 catches for 78 yards in three games. It's uncommon for a team to rule out a player on Thursday, but coach Mike McCarthy said he felt it was best to shut Jennings down for the week. On Wednesday, Jennings, who will be seeking a lucrative long-term contract after this season, talked about his frustration with a season that has included the groin injury and a lengthy absence with a concussion in the preseason. "I'm trying to not let it completely overtake me and let it become overwhelming," he said. "Again, seven years playing this game at this level I've never experienced what I've experienced this year. It's new territory for ...

EL-ERIAN: Oh, huge. I mean, that's why we wiped a trillion dollars -- I mean, if you want to know what it means for the 401(k), they've basically lost 6.5 percent of their savings over the week. We need to move quickly on a number of areas, and it has to be the U.S. having the Sputnik moment, realizing that the time has come for political unity, Europe having a moment of truth, and China helping out.
WILL: Maybe the answer is to quit looking for remedies. That is, we keep trying to cure Greece. Let it go.
AMANPOUR: But, George, we saw what happened when Lehman fell, and what if the others had fallen? I mean, it would have been a drama worse than we've already had.
WILL: What is being suggested is they ought to have what we did after Lehman Brothers, which is a TARP for all of Europe. Italy is too big to fail and too big to bail. It's the third-largest economy over there. There is not enough money in Europe to bail out Europe.
FREELAND: I think that's actually wrong. And the problem with saying, "Just let it go," is they have a shared currency now, so just let it go isn't an alternative.
WILL: Let it go, too.
FREELAND: You have to have -- you have -- OK, but let the euro go is not simple. That's much more complicated than letting Lehman fail.
WILL: It doesn't get...
FREELAND: And the people who are supporting that have to have a clear plan for how Europe looks without the euro.
WILL: It doesn't get simpler by delaying the inevitable.
AMANPOUR: But what I hear is that there are the financial resources and tools to deal with this, but the -- but the politics around is so difficult. Austan, you know about that.
GOOLSBEE: I think that -- look, I'd say two things. The first is, the politicians and policymakers in Europe aren't dumb. I mean, they look around. Every single government around the world that bailed out its financial institutions fell. And if the U.S. had a parliamentary system, we would have fallen twice over the last three years from this. It's highly toxic.
And so with their version of the TARP, they didn't have stress tests the first time around. Everybody presumes their banks aren't in as good a condition as ours were, and that's why they didn't make it public. Their TARP isn't as big and isn't structured to be as helpful to get private money in there.
So if they go -- if they get into problems, I don't know that the euro would survive. I kind of think the U.S. has got to -- we've got to just focus on what we can do. There's -- there's not much we can do about that, except tell the Europeans, "You've got to fess up to your problems. You've got to show the world what's in the banks. And you've got to recapitalize them."
But on our side, I truly hope that Mohamed is right that we can start coming together. It doesn't have to be just government-directed to -- to get the economy growing, but it's got to grow. We've got to shift to business investment and exports. There's not going to be massive residential construction again. That bubbles over.
AMANPOUR: So just to go to Mohamed's point, Secretary Geithner said this week, "We're seeing a terrible wave of politics get in the way of governments doing what is necessary and essential and urgent for the economy. We have a political system that looks manifestly broken, and it makes people nervous about the future."

Restrictions sought on pension settlements
The decision by the San Diego city retirement board to award a $700,000 settlement to a former labor leader has been held up in court, leading City Attorney Jan Goldsmith to push a proposal that would prevent the board from cutting similar deals without City Council approval in the future.
Goldsmith's request goes before the council Monday and is borne out of frustration that pension officials unnecessarily settled with ex-union head Judie Italiano despite a judge's ruling that she wasn't owed anything beyond her $5,700-a-year pension.
The city attorney asked an appellate court to block the deal, but the request was dismissed after retirement system lawyers showed a trust agreement approved by the City Council in early 2008 — before Goldsmith took office — that gave pension officials the ability to settle cases without permission from the city.
The trust agreement "had a whole bunch of different things and nobody really apparently saw that it gave them basically carte blanche to settle lawsuits," Goldsmith said in an interview. "I didn't know anything about it until we had a motion to disapprove (the settlement) and it was attached to a declaration in the court proceeding. And I was like 'What?'"
In April, Goldsmith asked the San Diego City Employees Retirement System to renegotiate the agreement to give the council final say for proposed settlements but was rebuffed.
David Noonan, outside legal counsel for the retirement system, responded in a May 20 letter that the change wasn't feasible because it would likely require the system to get permission from its other members — the San Diego County Regional Airport Authority and the Port District — on future settlements as well.
"Because the board is an independent entity with plenary and exclusive authority over administration of the retirement system, it cannot delegate veto power to either the city or the city attorney in this circumstance," Noonan wrote.
Mark Hovey, the system's administrator, said he couldn't comment on Goldsmith's proposal because he hadn't seen it yet. But he noted that the system has separate legal counsel and its own board of directors that give it a "degree of independence that courts have deemed healthy."
The current dispute stems from a long battle by Italiano, former president of the city's union representing white-collar workers, to restore her annual $86,000 pension after the Internal Revenue Service deemed it invalid in 2007.
At issue in her case was the city's past decision to allow labor leaders to include their union service toward their pensions as city employees. In Italiano's case, she was able to combine her 22 years as head of the Municipal Employees Association — peaking at $114,000 annually — with her nine years as a city typist making about $17,000.
The IRS said the practice violated tax law because union leaders aren't city employees and thus can't receive credit for union work when it comes to a city pension.
Italiano sued the city and pension system for $1.8 million — the estimated value over time of her combined union-city pension — accusing officials of negligence and making false promises about how much she would have for retirement.
