The average cost of a new car tops $30,000, according to National Public Radio, so for many of us the idea of selling the car and buying new doesn't seem realistic. A variety of factors go into determining when it's financially prudent to repair a car versus sell it -- know them to determine whether to hang on to ol' Kinda Reliable or finally say goodbye.
Value of the Car
Once you receive a cost estimate from a repair shop, compare it to the total value of the car, as well as the expected lifespan of the vehicle. For example, if the repairs total approximately $1,000 and the car is worth $3,000, it's smart to repair the car. Alternatively, if the car is worth only $1,000, but those repairs mean you expect to drive the car for least another one to two years, go ahead with the repairs, CBS News suggests. However, if the repairs cost $3,000 and the car is worth only $1,500, it's a better idea to get rid of the car. Find the market value of your car by visiting the Kelley Blue Book website.
If your car has been faithful and these repairs are out of the ordinary, feel comfortable in forking over the money. However, if this is just one instance in a long line of repairs – even if the price tag is small – consider trading it in for a more reliable vehicle. Cars typically last about 15 years, according to the "Arizona Republic"; however, after 10 years, an oft-broken car oft turns into a rolling money pit, if it rolls at all.
Public Transportation
If you choose not to repair your car but you can't afford to buy something new, consider how you'll get from place to place. If you live in a city where public transportation is easy to get to and affordable, selling your car makes financial sense. For longer distances, rent a car from a company that specializes in loaning vehicles to city folk. However, those than live in rural or suburban areas without an effective bus or subway service might be better suited for hanging onto the car, even if it's not as reliable as you'd like.
Cost of Replacing Your Car
If you decide to sell your car to replace it with a newer vehicle, consider all of the costs -- it'll help you decide whether to keep driving the old one. Determine if you have enough cash available for a down payment, if one's necessary. Tags and title are sometimes included in the loan or purchase amount. Additional costs exist at the DMV to register the car in your name. An older car, even one that's less reliable, typically costs less to insure. If you are considering selling your car and buying a new one, find out how much it will cost to insure the new vehicle before you make a firm decision. The drastic difference in insurance cost for a new car versus an old one may break your bank. Over the long run, an increase in monthly insurance premiums might make less financial sense than the cost of the car repair.

This is the best Pontet-Canet I have ever tasted. Dark ruby-colored, offering berry, raspberry and dark chocolate character. Full-bodied and very fruity, with big, velvety tannins. A glorious red, this goes on and on on the palate, displaying wonderful structure and fruit. 23,000 cases made.Drink Dates: 2002+
Professional content appears courtesy of Vinfolio
An old style Pauillac, yet made with far more purity and richness than the estate's ancient vintages, this broad-shouldered, muscular, classic wine exhibits a saturated purple color, and sensationally dense, rich, concentrated, cassis flavors that roll over the palate with impressive purity and depth. The wine is tannic and closed, but powerful and rich. It appears to possess length and intensity similar to the 1996. This is a great young Pauillac.Drink Dates: 2005-2025
Professional content appears courtesy of Vinfolio
Dark ruby-red. Black- and redcurrants and smoke on the nose; less oak-spicy today than the '96. Silky and harmonious but currently rather withdrawn. Not quite as sweet as the '96. Here the substantial toothcoating tannins come across as somewhat tougher, but there enough sheer extract for balance. Interestingly, this backward, rather powerful wine suggests the structure and grip of cabernet, while the silkier mouth feel of the '96 suggests a high percentage of merlot.Author: Stephen Tanzer
Professional content appears courtesy of Vinfolio
Boissenot consulted then. 37% Merlot, 7% Cabernet Franc and the rest Cabernet Sauvignon. Mid to light crimson. Light gravelly nose. Sweet start, then quite dusty tannins but an interesting wine with a real fruity core and structure. Round and satisfying.Drink Dates: 2010-2025

Honestly, who didn't love making spin art as a kid? It's so simple: Put a piece of paper on a turntable, spin in around, and splatter paint on it. You go from zero to Jackson Pollack in 30 seconds.
Now developer Brian Smith has brought one of my favorite childhood activities to the iPhone with SpinArt, which offers all the fun of the original, but none of the messy paint or frustration of cutting the perfectly sized paper squares to fit on the spinner. There are other apps in the iTunes store with the same concept, but this one keeps things old school. (And it does so at a discount—normally $2, the app is listed at $1 as we published this review.)
You start with a blank canvas in your choice of colors or photo from your iPhone library, with six control buttons and an extensive color palette. Select the spin button and move your finger in a circle on the screen to get things going. Then select from one of three thicknesses of paint splatter, pick a color, and touch the screen. Repeat until you're done. Select the glitter button to add a little shine to your artwork.
When you're finished, you can save the picture to your library, or join the SpinArt group on Flickr to show off your skills. This is an app that's not only fun for adults, but for their kids as well.

User Reviews
I have used NanoTrackJ to analyse a lot of video footage obtained from laser scattering experiments. NanoTrackJ has allowed me to perform nanoparticle tracking analysis using video recorded using several levels of magnification (x10-100) to provide me with results in excellent agreement with other commercially available software. The software itself is very easy to use with a nice GUI. Any problems that I have encountered along the way have been answered and dealt with very quickly.

Poulin grabs weekly AHL award
SPRINGFIELD, Mass. ... The American Hockey League announced today that Bridgeport Sound Tigers goaltender Kevin Poulin has been selected as the Reebok/AHL Player of the Week for the period ending Jan. 8, 2012.
Poulin went 4-0-0 and stopped 98 of 100 shots for a 0.48 goals-against average and a .980 save percentage, registering three consecutive shutouts and making a run at a 54-year-old AHL record.
Poulin entered the week having lost six of his previous seven decisions, but made 21 saves for his first shutout of the season in a 4-0 win over Worcester on Jan. 2. He stopped 24 shots on Jan. 4 in a 4-0 victory at Manchester on Jan. 4, and posted his third consecutive whitewash with 31 saves in a 4-0 win at Portland on Jan. 7. Poulin made 22 saves in a 3-2 shootout win in Providence on Jan. 8 but finally saw his shutout streak end at 221 minutes and 54 seconds – 27:57 shy of the all-time AHL record set by Hockey Hall of Famer Johnny Bower with the Cleveland Barons in 1957.
On the strength of his week, Poulin lowered his goals-against average for the season by half a goal (3.27 to 2.77) and added 14 points to his save percentage (.891 to .905).
A fifth-round draft pick by the New York Islanders in 2008, the 21-year-old Poulin has a record of 11-12-0 in 23 games for Bridgeport this season, and also made one start for the Islanders. The second-year pro and Montreal native split his rookie campaign between Bridgeport and Long Island also, going 10-5-0 with a 2.19 GAA and a .932 save percentage in 15 AHL contests and posting a 4-2-1 mark (2.44, .924) in 10 games with the Islanders in 2010-11.
In recognition of his achievement, Poulin will be presented with an etched crystal award prior to an upcoming Sound Tigers home game.

Couldn't agree more with this post. It's one of the things I noticed immediately with BO and can remember thinking at the time: "Holy crap, the matchmaking on this game is a HUGE step backward from MW2."
There were plenty of things I didn't like about MW2, but the matchmaking was pretty solid and self-healing. I lost connection and had more games crap out on me in the first couple of days of BO than I ever did in MW2.
Not being able to stay in a party. Yet you could put in MW2 right after failing to party and could join up and stay together no problem.
I took 10 losses in a day for about 3 months because of getting dropped. Not because of people leaving.
i just want not to be in a match where some one lagging or im lagging.
then grab up on the ump45 with range in every game there will be a gun like the ak74u
I agree. Though will be some lag... The lag that has been in the past 2 CoDs is completely disgusting.
If I didn't care about the game, I wouldn't be on this fourm.
As it should be. Yet some act as if it is Facebook or some source of social get together. I, myself post on different matters, but I don't come on here to post....look at this gameplay of mine, do you think I can keep from having to get a real job...videos.
There should be concern about are they going to address flaws from the last game, or have they done away with the flaws.
I agree completely. People should be more concerned with how the game plays rather than worrying about if there will be face paint in the game and other things like that. While extras are nice (excluding face paint) the main focus should be about how the game plays and resolving past issues.
I still want gore in the game and also no firecap on pistols, but you are right: the 1st thing they should focus on is how the game plays and resolving past issues.

EIA: Energy Efficiency Can Reduce Emissions, the Cost of a Clean Energy Standard
On November 30, the Energy Information Administration (EIA) released an Analysis of Impacts of a Clean Energy Standard. The study was requested by Senator Jeff Bingaman, Chairman of the Senate Energy and Natural Resources Committee. The analysis examined the impacts of a "clean energy standard" or CES—a requirement that electric utilities meet an increasing portion of their generation from "clean" energy resources including renewable, natural gas, and nuclear energy, as well as coal with carbon capture and storage. The primary analysis did not include energy efficiency, but one of the alternative cases that EIA examined illustrated the positive impacts of energy efficiency in reducing the costs of and the emissions from a CES.
Specifically, the analysis included a case in which electricity use would be reduced by 6.7% in 2035 as a result of stronger energy efficiency standards and building codes. EIA found that energy efficiency savings reduced the annual cost of the Basecase Clean Energy Standard (BCES) by $57 billion in 2035, the last year of the analysis. These savings include $44 billion in lower annual electricity expenditures and $13 billion in lower annual natural gas expenditures outside of the power sector. Electricity costs decline because electricity use is down and because electric rates are lower (by an average of 0.3 cents/kWh) than in the BCES case. The savings in electricity also mean that less natural gas is needed by the electric power sector, reducing natural gas demand and lowering the price of natural gas for all users by an average of 40 cents per thousand cubic feet. Relative to the BCES, the case with the energy efficiency standards and codes also reduced emissions of nitrogen oxides, mercury, and carbon dioxide.
The energy efficiency standards and codes case that EIA examined included only modest efficiency savings— i.e., the 6.7% saved in 2035 works out to an average reduction of 0.3% per year. ACEEE's recent State Energy Efficiency Scorecard found that five states (Vermont, Nevada, Hawaii, Rhode Island, and Minnesota) are already saving more than 1% per year, not including standards and codes, with the highest saving at 1.6% per year. Many other states are now ramping up to these levels of savings. Allowing energy efficiency to fully participate in a CES would potentially increase the efficiency savings by a factor of 3-5 compared to the case EIA examined. So if 6.7% energy efficiency savings saves $57 billion, then 20% efficiency savings will likely save considerably more—reducing the cost of electricity services with a CES to less than the cost of electricity services if no CES were enacted. Of course this is a very rough approximation; we recommend that EIA be tasked with conducting a specific analysis on this scenario.
Energy efficiency and natural gas are now competing in the market as the low-cost resources for meeting electricity needs. It makes no sense to "put a finger on the scale" and allow only natural gas to participate in a CES, and not energy efficiency. Therefore, we recommend that energy efficiency be added to the CES, potentially increasing the targets if the resulting mix does not adequately promote renewable energy and other advanced energy sources. Energy efficiency produces no emissions and therefore is "cleaner" than many of the resources now included in CES proposals.
Alternatively, if the intent of the CES is not to reduce emissions but is instead designed to encourage use of advanced, low-carbon resources that have difficultly competing with efficiency and natural gas, then the standard could be retitled an Advanced Energy Standard, and only more expensive energy sources that need some help (e.g., renewables, nuclear, and coal with carbon capture and storage) would be included. In such a case, the targets might need to be lower than those EIA analyzed.
Bottom line: Energy efficiency is our cheapest and cleanest energy resource. We should use it to save money so that we can better afford to use advanced energy resources to meet the balance of our future energy demand.

Willem Post says:
Energy efficiency should be done first, renewables later. Here is why.
A much more economically-viable and environmentally-beneficial measure to reduce CO2 would be increased energy efficiency.
A 60% reduction in Btu/$ of GDP is entirely possible with existing technologies. Such a reduction would merely place the US on par with most European nations.
It would be much wiser, and more economical, to shift subsidies away from expensive renewables, that produce just a little of expensive, variable, intermittent energy, towards increased EE. Those renewables would not be needed, if we use those funds for increased EE.
EE is the low-hanging fruit, has not scratched the surface, is by far the best approach, because it provides the quickest and biggest "bang for the buck", AND it is invisible, AND it does not make noise, AND it does not destroy pristine ridge lines/upset mountain water runoffs, AND it would reduce CO2, NOx, SOx and particulates more effectively than renewables, AND it would slow electric rate increases, AND it would slow fuel cost increases, AND it would slow depletion of fuel resources, AND it would create 3 times the jobs and reduce 3-5 times the Btus and CO2 per invested dollar than renewables, AND all the technologies are fully developed, AND it would end the subsidizing of renewables tax-shelters at the expense of rate payers, AND it would be more democratic/equitable, AND it would do all this without public resistance and controversy.

il bet Ksucks had something to do with it.
#2 Apr 28, 2011
some people just don't have enough to do
#3 Apr 28, 2011
No new taxes period they don't know how to spend what they get now so why give them more
#4 Apr 28, 2011
Well that would certainly violate their freedom of speech. If lobbyist (as a corporation) can pay congressional reps and senators millions of dollars to sway a vote why can't they wear T-Shirts? Hey this is what the Supreme Court decided so too bad.

In 2004, the elections officials took my Newsweek magazine as I waited in line to vote (2 hrs). It had photos and stories of the presidential candidates in it, and the brain-impaired elections official thought it might unduly influence someone. DON'T LET PEOPLE READ! IT MIGHT CAUSE THEM TO VOTE FOR SOMEONE FOR A GOOD REASON! We don't have good enough procedures in place to stop that kind of thing.

i saw it on a t-shirt so i must obey. you have changed my mind with a stupid slogan on a t-shirt. sorry about my lack of brains.
#7 Apr 28, 2011
Sounds like someone failed to do thier homework. The county should have checked before making themselves look like fools with this poncho thing.
#8 Apr 28, 2011
Sombreros will be tolerated.
#9 Apr 28, 2011
I wonder why they will not make the voters wear the ponchos. Oh I know,it would be an infringement on freedom of speech and one can bet good money that I'm a pure loudmouth when it comes to freedom of speech.

People don't understand that a school levy is not a partisan political contest. It is simply a decision.
We have a system for funding school in this country based on local control. People vote for how much money they want to tax themselves to support public schools. That's it.
There is nothing bad, illegal, immoral or anything else about school levies. They are simply the mechanism we have.
If people want to change the mechanism or even stop funding public schools, they need to use the system we have and work through it, rather than bad mouthing schools, teachers, public officials and everyone else who is simply doing their job within what the law requires.
Did anybody go to civics class and pay attention?

are you kidding me? did they actually think they could do that to the voters? has anybody in this state heard of freedom of speech?

How do you think our last two presidents were elected?

They could never make voters wear a poncho. PERIOD!!!!
#14 Apr 29, 2011
I was thinking of how they were going to sanitize each one? Think about: colds, head lice and scabies... just to name a few.
No way would I ever wear one.
#15 Apr 29, 2011
Why is it schools never have enough? Now matter how many levies they get, they always want more.
Seems like it is time for the schools to learn to live on
a budget like the rest of us do!
#16 Apr 29, 2011
I'm sure most people have their minds made up before they reach the poles...especially for school levies, which get an automatic "no" vote in my town.
