This must be a really hot issue for the censors. Just the mention of Eric Holder and an Andrew Breitbart video got the post from this screen name deleted. And, no, it wasn't a link that was supplied. It was merely the title of the Breitbart video and a suggestion to use the browser to find it.
In the past supplying a title had been a sure fire way to bypass the ban on links that were not "white" listed by Yahoo. We'll just leave it up to you to analyze that piece of censorship.

A special commission on transportation created by Congress is suggesting hiking gasoline taxes and charging motorists by the miles to help pay for road projects.
Neither approach appears to have the support of the Obama
Transportation Secretary Ray LaHood has said raising the gas tax during a recession is a bad idea. And when LaHood suggested last
week that a mileage tax might merit consideration, the White House
responded within hours, saying, "It is not and will not be the policy of the Obama administration."
But in a report released Thursday, the National Surface Transportation Infrastructure Financing Commission says current gas and diesel taxes are not raising enough money to keep pace with the cost of highway, bridge and transit projects.
It proposes a 10 cent increase in the gas tax and 15 cents for diesel and adjusting both for inflation. Otherwise, it says, the nation will face "grim consequences."

Rep. Loretta Sanchez, D-Santa Ana, sent a letter to Covered California, the state's health care exchange handling the implementation of the Affordable Care Act, urging officials to keep an eye out for identity thieves looking to steal people's personal information.
Last month Attorney General Kamala Harris shut down 10 private health insurance websites that deceptively imitated the state's official "Covered California" site.
Sanchez's letter, sent Friday to Executive Director Peter Lee, was signed by nine other Democratic members of Congress, all from California.
Sanchez warned that many unemployed and non-English speaking health care customers are the most vulnerable to fraud. "We urge you to ensure that health insurance fraud prevention efforts remain a priority in California," she wrote.
Same-sex couples get Guard IDs
The Pentagon says all states are now complying with new rules allowing the same-sex spouses of military members to get ID cards in order to claim benefits.
Nine states, including Texas, Florida, Georgia and Mississippi, initially defied the Pentagon by refusing to allow National Guard facilities to issue the ID cards.
Defense Secretary Chuck Hagel said in October that the states' refusal to comply had created hardship for couples by forcing them to travel long distances to federal military bases to get the ID cards.
The White House accepted House Speaker John Boehner's invitation for President Barack Obama to deliver the State of the Union address on Jan. 28.

I did my first mountain bike yesterday, and thought I would post a report to encourage anyone else who was thinking of trying it.
This was a toys for tot charity race at a nearby trail, so it wasn't as serious as it will be when the local series starts up next month but there was a good turnout. I went with 3 friends, one who is really good and the other two are beginners. And me I am 34, I started road riding 1 1/2 years ago and this fall some friends convinced me to get a mountain bike. I scored a used Cannondale F6 off ebay for cheap and have commensed beating myself up in woods.
The course started with a 100 yard run along the edge of a field the into the woods for about a 6 mile loop. The beginner classes did this twice, sport went 3 times and experts 4. Since I have been mountain biking for all of 2 months I signed up for the beginner class which had a nice variety of new guys and some sand baggers.
They staggered the start so the expert guys went out first, then sport, then we lined up. I have been riding with a guy who crushes people in the sport + class (he used to ride expert till he was 40) and he had recommended that I just find a comfortable pace and settle in and ride my own race. So I resisted the urge to sprint for the hole shot at the start and ended up going into the woods about mid pack (maybe 10 or 12 out of 20 or so).
Here is E North Cackilaki there are no mountains to bike on, but the club that built this trail has done a nice job of using what they have. The trail starts with a big bowl you make a few laps through, then mostly single track through the woods. Near the end there is a series of short but mean hills where they basically laid switchbacks up and down the hill instead of across it.
I started to worry a bit when after the first 1/2 mile the guy in front started to pull away. I got passed by another guy and was thinking that this was going to be embarrassing. But a quick glance behind showed no one in sight so I knew everyone was spreading out. I remembered my buddies advice and just settled into a good pace.
About 2 miles in is where the hills started and that is where I started catching people. My technique needs work through the trees, but my road riding fitness helps alot grinding up the hills. I saw a lot of people trying to grind too much gear and I was able to get passed them spinning away.
Compared to the road, it is strange to race in the woods because I really didn't know what place I was in. I passed a lot of people but some of them were from the sport class. There were a couple of really nice bikes in my class that I never saw again so I knew they were in front, but other than that I really didn't know if I was 3rd or tenth.
I started to tire a bit on the second lap, my pace was about the same but I was working harder for it. I started standing going up the hills and I ended up paying for it about 2 miles from the end. About half way up a hill both quads just locked up solid. I have been through this on century rides on the road so I knew it would hurt but I could ride through it. So I sat and started spinning and tried to relax my legs on the downhills instead of standing like I had been.
I made it through and was glad to see the woods open up into that field again! I was hoping there would be someone right with me so we could sprint to the finish but I was all alone. Turns out the guy in front of me was 2 minutes ahead and the next guy was 8 minutes behind me. I ended up either 4th or 5th (a bit of confusion at the scoring table) but more importantly I had a great time and learned a lot.
Incidentally, my buddy crushed the sport + field, he even passed all but one of the experts who started a minute ahead. I am sure he will catch some crap for sandbagging this year as well. I intend to keep trying to follow him through the woods, not that I expect to keep up but it is fun trying.
(wow, that rambled on a lot longer than I intended. I hope it helps someone else just starting out)

Spending serious money on renting a room for your graduate offspring? Rosalind Russell finds plenty of apartments for sale in all the university towns
What would you do to support your child at university? More than half of parents questioned by the Halifax said they would put on hold plans to move house or take a holiday, in order to keep their offspring's landlord happy. Those who can afford it go even further and buy a flat for their child in the university city, renting out the spare bedrooms to other students to help cover the mortgage.
When the Halifax did its survey at the start of the educational year, university towns had seen an average increase in house prices of 14 per cent in 12 months, easily outpacing the UK average. Now, although prices have stalled elsewhere, there is still confidence in the student accommodation market.
The Knight Frank estate agency recently launched a dedicated Student Property Team, led by Tim Goddard. The reasoning is simple:the total student population has grown consistently over the past 10 years and the trend is set to continue. Numbers have risen from 1.8million in 1997 to 2.5million in 2007 - and they all have to live somewhere.
Even during a slump in the housing market, many middle-class parents would still rather gamble on making a profit after three years than spend thousands on rent. With most universities guaranteeing a place in a hall of residence for first-years only, buying a flat removes the worry of finding accommodation.
While buying a property seems a sound investment, there are student-specific ground rules to follow, outlined in the list below.
Do your homework
Tim Goddard, of Knight Frank, advises:
- Find the good areas where there is likely to be continued demand from students.
- Visit the area at night and ask yourself if you would be happy for your child to walk home here.
- Talk to letting agents, who can advise on what rent to expect, and visit university websites.
- Two-, three- or even four-bedroom flats are better than one. If one of the bedrooms is tiny, charge a lower rent.
- Take out sufficient insurance: student kit includes TV, computer, MP3 player and mobile. Reduce the risk of burglary by careful choice of area.
- Insist on a written contract with tenants, down to paying bills and the cleaning rota. Rents must cover mortgage and maintenance.
- City-centre locations are not always best: check out the mix of residents and parking.
- Avoid blocks where there are a high number of buy-to-let properties which have failed to let.
- Students still rent Victorian houses, but many prefer modern, easily maintained flats.
The University of Manchester has the highest number of places in university-owned accommodation, including 9,000 in the halls of residence. All first-year undergraduates are guaranteed a place, provided they apply by the deadline -places are allocated in August - but demand is high.
Not all the halls have en-suite facilities. One that does is St Gabriel's Hall, where a single room with en-suite bathroom costs £4,642 over a 40-week student year. Fees in the halls include meals, heating, lighting, broadband and Freeview. Parking at halls, whether owned by the campus or operated privately, tends to be severely restricted and usually costs extra.
For private lets, Victoria Park and Fallowfield are popular student areas. The developer Dandara is offering flats in Spectrum, in the city centre, from £114,950. The scheme has 580 studio, one- and two-bedroom apartments.
Savills is selling apartments in The Hub in Piccadilly Place, built by developer Argent, with prices starting at £124,500. Completion is due in December this year.
Two miles from the city centre at Old Trafford, Gladedale's new Pulse development has one- and two-bedroom flats from £99,950. It is near the Metrolink and has secure underground parking.
However, Manchester has so many new two-bedroom flats for sale at about £150,000 that developers are likely to be prepared to negotiate.

A safe haven for two sisters
After Kath and David Pitt's elder daughter Emma had spent a year in halls of residence at Manchester University, they decided to buy a flat for her. It made sense as their second daughter Lucy, right, would be joining her the next year.
"We went to Manchester and spent three days trudging round looking at apartments," says Kath. "We thought about when we would be selling it on, how close it was to the university, security and a good area." The Pitts decided on Asia House, in Princess Street, a Grade II-listed building developed by Persimmon Homes, less than five minutes' walk from lectures. They chose a fourth-floor flat costing £207,000.
That was five years ago. The girls spent a year at the flat before Emma graduated in marketing management in textiles and fashion, returning to her home town of Harrogate to work. Lucy had flatmates to help cover the bills.
The two-bedroom apartment is now for sale at £240,000 through Knight Frank (0161 838 7744).
"We were very conscious of security for the girls, and at Asia House you need two codes to get into the apartment," says Kath. "There is also a garage space. We are happy we have made their time at university as pleasant as possible. They have loved it."
There are almost 24,000 students and 6,000 staff at the University of Sheffield, where the alumni include David Blunkett, Eddie Izzard and Chocolat author Joanne Harris. A 42-week year in university accommodation, with en-suite and broadband, costs up to £4,410, with catering extra. There are a further 30,000 students at Sheffield Hallam.
Atlantic 1 is a development of 190 flats within sight of the university campus. Two-bedroom apartments start at £137,320, to suit sharers, although one-bedroom flats are less than £100,000. The developer is Opal Student Accommodation and the selling agent is Knight Frank.
Richard Jenkinson, of Winkworth in Sheffield, says: "The majority of parents are going for three- to five-bedroom terrace houses, which can cost between £130,000 and £250,000.
"Crookes, Hunters Bar and Banner Cross are all popular areas. As Sheffield has around 60,000 students in total, there are a lot of potential buyers. Property for students has helped to regenerate the city centre."

In the Halifax survey of university towns, the lowest burglary rates per 1,000 households are in Ceredigion, home to Aberystwyth University.
University accommodation starts at £62 per week, but only one residence has en-suite facilities. In the Student Village, 955 students live in self-catering houses shared among five or six students.
The seaside town is booming. However, most of the property for sale tends to be second-hand conversions, some with sea views, so parents may have to compete with holiday-home buyers. The propertyfinder.com website claims that more than 50 per cent of buyers will pay a 10 per cent premium for a sea view, which could help a resale.
Michael Williams, of estate agency Shearer & Morris, in Aberystwyth, says: "Parents tend to go for more modern properties, with extra bedrooms to rent to other students. They usually pay between £180,000 to £250,000. Until this year, it has been a very strong market." The firm is selling a two-bedroom flat in a new development called Llys Ardwyn for £195,000.

York has two universities. York St John (affiliated to Leeds University) has 6,000 students, at a ratio of 30 per cent male to 70 per cent female, with the campus based in the city centre. York University - which is soon due to expand massively - charges up to £103 per week for an en-suite room, including heating and light, and has very limited parking for students.
"Most parents tend to buy terrace houses for about £200,000 close to the university," says Bryan Jaram of estate agency Jackson-Stops & Staff. "Here in York the parents are in competition with second-home buyers. When it comes to resale, however, they tend to do very well."
Edward Waterson, of York agent Carter Jonas, says he has heard of one parent who inquired about buying an apartment for his daughter who is still only eight years old. Another father, with two daughters studying in the city, plans to spend £550,000 on a flat for them.
The Square, built by Nixon Homes, is on the bus run to York University, 15 minutes across town. Prices start at £200,000 for a large apartment.

For value for money, Coventry - home to Warwick and Coventry unviersities - was among the Halifax survey's top 20, with prices rising 107 per cent in five years. Property in the city is trading at £9,000 less than the average house price in the county.
Warwick University has 20,000 students, with accommodation fees at about £3,450 for a 30-week year in a self-catering unit. Parking is extra.
At Coventry University, where there are a further 15,000 students, catered accommodation with shared bathroom costs about £3,760 for a 40-week year.
Friends united
Friends Gemma Nash and Shiv Chotai, both 20 and studying psychology at Coventry University, were paying high rents during their first-year studies. So Gemma's parents, Peter and Susan Nash, from Kent, agreed to buy into Barratt's CV One development.
"During Gemma's first year in Coventry, we spent a large amount of money on rent with nothing to show as a result," says Peter. "It made sense to buy a flat, firstly as investment property for myself and Susan, at the same time as enabling Gemma to live in modern and safe accommodation while at university."
Gemma likes the location. "For me that is one of the major benefits," she says, "as my flat is a five-minute walk to Coventry University."
Shiv and her father Jay also bought a flat at CV One. "I feel at ease walking around the area," Shiv says, "and it has given my dad peace of mind."
The flats have two bedrooms, so each girl can let out a bedroom.

The Halifax found Nottingham to be the cheapest of Britain's top 20 university towns, with an average house price of £155,072. There are 100,000 students in the city, where a private college room with en-suite will cost about £5,000 a year.
The University of Nottingham works with Unipol to provide private-sector housing, so landlords can register properties with Unipol.
The Frank Innes agency is selling apartments in the Ropewalk, where a two-bedroom, third-floor flat with underground parking costs £114,950.
"They have been popular with parents," says branch manager Matt Copley. "The student population in Nottingham is massive, as we have Trent and Nottingham Universities. Parents and students want flats in a safe area, within walking distance to the colleges. It has been a strong market, but prices have been more sensible recently. A two-bedroom flat can cost from £105,000."
A two-bedroom flat in One Fletcher Gate is being sold for £135,000 by Savills.

Leeds University is the UK's second-largest, with 30,500 students. It is the third-biggest employer in the city, with 8,000 staff. The campus is a 10-minute walk from the centre.
Barratt Homes is targeting students with the Echo Central development, which is half an hour's walk to the university, and 10 minutes to the city centre. More than half the one- and two-bedroom flats in the 12-storey building were reserved off-plan, with prices starting just under £100,000. A furniture pack worth £3,000 is included. For cost comparison, a 39-week year in halls of residence costs up to £5,000.
Developer Redrow is selling two-bedroom flats with parking space in the West 12 development, with prices starting from £116,999. Out of the 165 flats built, just 23 are unsold.
Trinity One is a development of 111 flats on East Street by Nixon Homes. Many have now been sold, but some top-end, large apartments are still for sale at about £250,000. Nixon's Quay One development has just been completed, with one-bedroom flats from £120,000 and two bedrooms at about £140,000.
Savills is selling flats in The Chandlers in the city centre, with prices starting at £99,950. Stephen Maskill, of Savills, says: "These apartments are very popular with parents, especially as they make good resales to first-time buyers."

There are 50,000 students at Aston University and more than 20,000 more at Birmingham City University. The rent for a room with en-suite and shared kitchen at Birmingham City University is about £100 a week.
There are a further 26,000 students at the University of Birmingham, which has updated some of the older accommodation stock. In a development like Oakley Court there are 21 self-catering flats with up to 13 bedrooms per flat. Prices start at £4,036 for a 42-week stay.
Builder Redrow has two well-placed developments. Jupiter is within walking distance of the Aston University city-centre campus and some of Birmingham City University's main faculties. Hemisphere, opposite Warwickshire county cricket ground, is just over a mile from Birmingham City University's Edgbaston campus.
Jupiter, in Canal Square, a regenerated area of Birmingham, has 700-plus apartments, now in its final stages. Studios currently cost from £84,995, but there are also one- and two-bedroom apartments.
Hemisphere has one- and two-bedroom apartments, with prices from £124,995. It's a short walk from the bars and restaurants of Broad Street and Brindley Place, not just for partying, but for students looking for part-time work to help pay their fees.
Savills is also selling apartments from £149,944 in St Paul's Place, a conversion by Chord Homes of a Victorian buckle factory.

There are 18,000 students at Newcastle University and almost 30,000 more at the University of Northumbria. University rents vary according to the distance from the campus. Self-catering in a flat sharing with four or five other students costs around £50 a week. In halls of residence, a 38-week year costs £3,910 for a room with en-suite. Some have small kitchens. Most students move into privately rented accommodation after their first year.
There is very little large-scale new development in the city, but there are a huge number of older flats for less than £100,000, though not all in areas close to the campuses. Expect to pay just under £200,000 for a resale, two-bedroom city-centre apartment, through King Sturge.

The University of Liverpool has 16,500 students and John Moore's has 24,000. There is no shortage of university accommodation, and the annual charge for a room with an en-suite varies, but is about £3,000.
Barratt Homes has a development at Craven Park, three miles from the city centre, suitable for first-time buyers and with prices starting at £132,000. Closer is the Trafalgar View development, a 15-minute walk to John Moore's University, with prices from £146,800 for three bedrooms.
There has been a regeneration of the waterfront area in the city and planning permission is being sought for specially designed student apartments, which are expected to sell for less than £100,000.
Two miles from the campuses, Stewart Milne Homes' development Kaber Court is by Brunswick station, a four-minute journey to Liverpool. Prices start at £114,950 and furniture packs are available. Flats come with a parking space and bicycle stand.
Martyn Green, of estate agent King Sturge, says: "Only last week we exchanged contracts with a family who bought an apartment for their child. They paid £180,000 for a top-quality one-bedroom flat in the Unity building, about a 20-minute walk away. Student accommodation is a growth market and Liverpool is a growth city which is desperate to keep hold of its graduates."

After dropping out of commuting for a few months last year due to icy conditions, this year I'm prepared with a set of Schwalbe Marathon Winter tires. It's probably a bit early for studs here, but the temps are getting to freezing and I had some free time to change the tires this week. Today was my first commute with the Marathon Winters on. Wow, these things have way more rolling resistance than I imagined they would. I lost about 2 MPH on my typical speed. Am I doing something wrong or is this just the way it is? I was under the impression the Marathon Winter had about the lowest rolling resistance among the studded tires, so I can't imagine what the big knobby Nokians must be like!
The tires I've been running for the past year are Continental Travel Contact (26x1.75) which I keep between 50 and 60 psi (Conti recommends 50psi).
The Marathon Winters (also 26x1.75) are rated for 30 to 80 psi and I put 60 psi in them to start out. Should I be running them at much higher pressure?

There is much to be heard from this young band in the future.

M.I.A released a new album matangi
Once again the English-Sri Lankan recording artist M.I.A. gives us a funky fresh music on her latest album Matangi. The album was released on November 4th on her own label N.E.E.T. Recordings. It is her fourth studio album and, as usual, the songwriting and production for the album was primarily handled by M.I.A. herself and her long-time collaborator Switch, with additional contributions from Hit-Boy, Doc McKinney, Danja, Surkin and The Partysquad. We represent the publishing of M.I.A. songs through Imagem music.
IDM Music is very happy to bring you a completely different musical experience in our publishing roster.
This week we present you our latest signing - the best contemporary singer of the traditional Bosnian "sevdalinka", Damir Imamović.
It has been a mystery for years how to properly translate the word "sevdah", which represents a specific genre of folk music from Bosnia and Herzegovina, and the closest parallel the people came up with was "bosnian soul music" or "bosnian fado". The music that is characterized by a slow or moderate tempo and intense, emotional meodies and passionate singing, has been a part of the musical tradition of Bosnia Herzegovina since the Middle age and it still lives with new interpretations and new contemporary approaches. The best new interpreter of "sevdalinka" so far is young and talented Damir Imamović, the grandson of the legendary sevdalinka singer Zaim Imamović.
Damir started exploring sevdah since 2006, when he formed the band Damir Imamović Trio. He has published 6 albums so far and held concerts throughout Europe. He also participates in project "SevdahLab" that explores the origins and esthetics of this traditional art with numerous lectures and scientific researches.

I hope someone can help me out with this. I recently had to reinstall XP and
although I've downloaded and installed the most recent drivers my onboard
realtek ac97 audio still doesn't work.
I've checked out the device properties and Windows tells me that the device
is working properly but the drivers haven't been loaded.
Now then, I've searched microsoft's webiste and have found that there is a
Microsoft update for the realtek audio drivers, but every time I go to the
windows update site and set it to retrieve a list of available updates (so
that I can choose the right one) it takes absolutely ages and in the end IE
just returns that there has been an error.
Can someone please tell me what's going on and what I can do to fix this
problem. The audio was working on the motherboard before I had to reinstall
(probably because the update had been added automatically) but it just
doesn't want to work now.
Thanks for all your help.

text: deer Sangamon, Pike Among Top 10 Counties For Deer-Vehicle Accidents By Sean Crawford • Nov 12, 2014 flickr/JoeShlabotnik Deer can be more than a nuisance. They can be dangerous when they venture on to roads. Illinois saw a one percent drop in the number of crashes in 2013,but there were still over 15-thousand accidents. There was also a slight increase in injuries from those collisions and six people died. Madison and Cook County led the way in the number of deer-vehicle accidents with well over 400 each. Illinois To Limit Deer Hunting Permits By Brian Mackey • Feb 13, 2014 Flickr user "jonnnnnn" (Creative Commons) Efforts to reduce the number of deer in Illinois have been so successful that the state plans to reduce the number of hunting permits this year. Illinois already met its goal of reducing the deer population statewide a few years ago. But some counties still had herds deemed problematic — causing car accidents and crop damage. Now, in more than 40 counties, officials at the Department of Natural Resources want to see the number of deer go up by anywhere from one to 29 percent. Sangamon County In Top Ten For Deer-Vehicle Accidents By Sean Crawford • Nov 27, 2013 It's likely you or someone you know have struck a deer. While it seems as though they are always wandering into the road, the actual number of deer-vehicle accidents was down last year. State Farm Insurance has already predicted another decline based on claims filed. The company attributes the expected decline in accidents to a smaller deer population and increased driver awareness. It says Illinois drivers have less chance of hitting a deer than the national average. In Sangamon County last year, there were 335 accidents, 75 fewer than the year before. There's Less Chance You'll Collide With A Deer By Sean Crawford • Oct 1, 2013 New figures released this week by State Farm say Illinois drivers are less likely to hit a deer in the next year. The insurance company says drivers in the state have a 1 in 214 chance of hitting a deer in the next 12 months. That compares with a 1 in 162 chance lastyear. Nationwide, the figure is 1 in 174. Bloomington-based State Farm says Illinois drivers made 39,000 claims last yearfor accidents involving deer. Nationwide, there were 1.2 million claims, downabout 3.5 percent.

Posted by a Consumer on 07/23/153.8 out of 5.0Mr. Pritchard represented me in my divorce case. Mr. Pritchard & his staff were very professional & helpful I don't know what I would've done without him. I was able to get an excellent settlement because of his help.Posted by a Consumer on 04/07/154.0 out of 5.0Mr. Pritchard was amazing. he took my case on a very last min basis. I reside in Louisiana and his staff was always very good at keeping me up to date on what was going on with the case. He did what needed to be done to win the case and I would recommend him to anyone looking for a good attorneyPosted by a Consumer on 02/12/144.8 out of 5.0I have used Mr. Pritchard and his partner, Mike Rizzo, for several different legal matters over the years. I have always had good experiences with them. Both are very professional and know the law. They represented me in my divorce case when I thought all was lost. I can never thank them enough for the help and advice they gave me. I will definitely use their services again should I need legal help in the future.Posted by a Consumer on 12/24/111.0 out of 5.0Not a good lawyer. He works on more cases than he can handle. Will be busy taking new client while ignoring his current ones. Once you pay him that's it, he will be late or won't show up at all on your court day, too busy getting new clients. Your case will be reset several times, and will take much longer than if you hire a descent lawyer. My experience and I am sharing it with everyone so that you don't get burned like I did.

Just had the EGR valve replaced. Took vehicle into the Illinois EPA emissions testing facility. They rejected me because I hadn't driven the vehicle for one "drive cycle" They couldn't tell me what that involved and referred me to my owner's manual - no info in there. The shop that did the repair said "drive it for 100 miles - IL EPA said that wouldn't work. A local Ford dealer service representative said, "drive it for a week. Does anyone actually know what a "drive cycle" is? Or is this some generic term that doesn't have a real-world definition (i.e. - a bunch of B.S.)? Timing is everything, my plate registration expires tomorrow and I can't get a new sticker without passing the IL EPA test. Yeah , I did take the car in for service as soon as the "check engine light" came on, that was 5 days ago and I just got it back today (that's a whole other story. . .). I love government regulations?

drive cycle is a very specific way of driving your car to run the monitors. chances of you driving and setting them is about 1 in a hundred. let a shop do it. it will be done in about an hour and move on with your inspection. Roy
COMMENT by sailwolf , July 02, 2010
So, apparently, this is a deep, dark mystery that mere mortal are incapable of comprehending? In fact, it' so mysterious that the vehicle-specific definition is not published anywhere or available to the common fool? Just wondering. . .
