Question brought to mind by txfarmer's question on the Tartine WW bread
I have been wondering about the difference between white whole wheat flour and white flour. I have been looking at some interesting bread recipes in The Village Baker and Joe Ortiz's recipe calls for white flour or all purpose flour. I am interested in what alterations I would need to make to use white whole wheat flour in these recipes as opposed to using white flour and if the two terms are interchangeable. I can see the differences between using red wheat whole wheat flour and white wheat whole wheat flour; they are rather substantial. It is when you get to the white wheat whole wheat flour and the white flour that I am a little lost as to what the differences would be.

If we take George A. Romero's zombie classic "Dawn of the Dead" as our intellectual starting point then Eastern Connecticut's zombie industry is at high noon.
North Stonington (44 Button Road) will be the scene of the Sept. 7 Zombie Charge, billed as "the most authentic zombie run in New England." The organizer of Zombie Charge, on its way to becoming a national obstacle course phenomenon, is Plainfield-based Rising Sun Productions LLC with Jeff "The Director" at the controls.
Norwich was the setting for much of the 2011 filming of "Remains," whose zombie cast included Brad and Katie Kazarian of North Stonington. No word if the Kazarians will reprise their roles next month and be among the zombies "infesting" the obstacle course or perhaps participate as frightened runners.
Registration begins at 9 a.m. www.zombiecharge.com.

It lists an account number and a reference number and a so-called creditor called Security Credit Services claiming that I owe them 1,448.39. and that I have to make 3 monthly installments at a 40% discount if I pay now at $289.28 per month. First of all, I do not owe them any money. I have never heard of them and I have never received a bill from a so-called company they say they represent. I believe this has to do with a payday advance and they have taken my personal information from an application for that and have tried to con me into paying them some massive amount. If I borrow money, I pay it back. I get harrassing phone calls at my job from some outsourced Indian man with a thick accent. I get requests for auto loans I never applied for, I get calls for insurance quotes I have never requested, I get constant requests for credit card offers that I do not want nor have I rquested. This is all related to this scam system along with countless phone numbers all either non-working numbers or lines are busy not allowing me to return the calls anyway. I received this letter in the mail this week and do not want to call them or speak to them but I do not want this garbage showing up on y credit report. These companies require that you apply for a free credit reort and state that you have 14 days to cancel. Once you call and cancell. they continue to bill you, I guess, even tho they tell you that you have cancelled your "membership" in the proper amount of time. I am certain they got my info by telling me that they were some loan consolidation conmpany. They probed you for as much personal info they possibly can and then when they ask you for their offers I say No I am not interested, all they were trying to do the whole tie was obtain my information and they did. Now they are using it to take every penny i own. I absolutely fel violated and this should be illegal. I am going to have to close my accounts and try to re-create personal information making it more private. I think this company is dfinately associated with these payday advance companies and they even charge you a fee for applying and never even give you the money, but they give all your personal data to countless crooks.
A. This company needs to tell me when this account was opened,
B. where,
C. the amount,
D. what kind of service it was,
E. how much was the credit for,
F. what name was on the original account,
G.what the terms of the account were,
H. what the payoff information was,
I. what the original account number was, and
J. what payments were made on this account.
If none of this information can be given to me, there is no way I will cooperate with this scammer.

Plan --
At 2: Wake, pack up, straighten Loft up.
At 230: Loft ready.
At 3: Ron call.
Do review of yesterday, post on blog.
Check people in.
Go to gym.
Eat a lot.
GAP: What to do here?
*GGW biz plan… JUST OPEN IT AND RE-READ
Send invoice.
Quick runthrough of all clients.
10PM: Marketing/lead sourcing until sleep.
Results (doesn't tell much of the story) --
Awake: 11:20AM
Noon: Good start to the day. (40 blog)
Food: 3 eggs, peanuts, coconut oil, coffee.
2:50PM: Hmm, got slightly off-track. Mix of distraction, and necessary stuff. (60 semi-productive, 30 general-life, 60 distraction)
5:50PM: It's so easy to get caught in doing somewhat valuable things. (90 semi-productive, 120 social)
Rest of the day: Spent thinking about how to generate high creativity, followed by amazing conversation and figuring the stuff out on paper. Huge dividends coming henceforth, I think.
Slept around 6AM.
From 5:50PM to 6AM, I was broadly looking at the question, "What causes high creativity?" I came up some remarkable answers -- it's already the next day, and huge gains follow. I'll have more analysis later, but basically, I was looking at why things were difficult / not flowing, and tried to build something better around that. After 1 day, it looks very promising... updates to follow over the next few days.
After Day Two was off the rails entirely, I wanted to rest and recuperate a little, so I set my benchmarks low. Okay, I'd rather gear down and be Conan the Barbarian with a big ol' sword, but it didn't work out like that.
Here was my plan, emphasis added --
Wake 5:30PM (7 hours sleep… hmm). GGW call scheduled for 6PM.
GGW call concludes… 7PM?
I'm sitting by a crackling fire at my aunt and uncle's house in New Jersey and we're just a couple hours into the new year, which means that it's a perfect time to review the year and look forward.
If I were to title my year, I'd call it the year I got serious. Something interesting happened near the end of 2011-- I realized that I wasn't actually on track for a lot of my goals, that I was going to have to actually get serious about stuff, and that this seriousness had to come in the form of action, not talk. I ended 2011 with a few months of solid productivity under my belt, and a year-end post that optimistically predicted a productive year.
I'm happy to say that the productive year materialized, and that my focus on getting serious has intensified.
When I was young, maybe third grade or so, a psychologist did a study at my middle school. We answered some questions and were offered two choices: a small prize now or a large prize later. I took the small prize now. I think knew it was the wrong move at the time, but the pack of stickers on the table looked like a lot of fun. Later on the big prizes were given to the waiters in such a way that I was able to see what they got. Sure enough, their prizes were a lot better and my stickers were long gone.

Ender's Game
by Orson Scott Card
Major Imbu
Character Analysis
Imbu seems to run the computers at Battle School. The only reason we know his name is because he and Graff discuss what the heck the mind game is doing with Ender's mind. (You program a computer to play mind games on kids – what do you expect?) Imbu helpfully lays out some ideas about what the mind game might mean to Ender, but he can't answer Graff's questions about the program. So maybe he should've been a psychologist instead of a computer guy...

In late July I received a notice from CCS. As I had already paid this bill I called their number and went through the touch-tone menus. The option I chose indicated that I had already paid the bill. They asked me to input how much I had sent. I indicated that I had sent $61.37.
Today I received a "second notice" indicating that I had still not made payment.
My bank register shows the check cleared on July 14th for the exact amount.
Today I call the # to find out what's going on. I get nothing but a busy signal.
I go to their website, it has no info except a page to take payment.
I think this place is a scam. Tommorow I am going to call my insurance agent and see if he ever submitted this bill to claims.

#1 UPDATE Employee
CCS is NOT Fraudulant
AUTHOR: Melissa - (U.S.A.)
SUBMITTED: Saturday, February 04, 2006POSTED: Saturday, February 04, 2006
Unfortunately the agencies don't always have the best communication with thier corperate office. So while you are paid and setteled with the agent, the corperate office may elect thier right for recovery, not knowing this was already recovered.
The best thing you can do is send in a copy of the front and back of the check. If you are worried about account information you can either white it out or use a black marker on the copy.
CCS has to assume the claim is valid until they receive documentation to dispute the claim. That is what... as you said... your bank register showed. You can send that in as well, and also void out account info.
It is important that we have the documention so that we can help you dispute this with the client. But please make sure you include your file number on every paper you send in, this is located in the gray shaded box on the return stub it should start with either a 05 or 06. Send to the address about 3/4 down the page the paragraph is labeled mailing instructions further it will read a po box in Needham, Ma.
I do apologize for the fact that you could not get though to the company by phone. If you would like to try again to verify the information I have given you, the hours of operation are 8:30am to 12am EST Monday thru Friday. A different number you can try is 1-800-360-2821 This is a different department which has a lower volume of inbound calls. They can transfer you to the correct department. Once you are with the correct department you can ask to speak with a supervisor... you may even get me!
I hope this helps if you have any further questions please don't hesitate to ask. I do apologize for any inconvience.

Global Test Market is a big ripoff. When I tried to contact them by phone, nobody answers. When I send them email messages, nobody replies. I want the authorities to take drastic action against this company. Closing this survey company will be the best solution.

Since then I have received a letter stating that I could not be represented due to modifications in Texas Law which would not allow them to represent me.I have tried to call several times but no response .I received another letter shortly there after telling me that an affiliate of theirs ,the Law Offices Of William O'Toole Esquire had agreed to service their clients and to call them to get assistance FREE of charge ,since I had already paid. I called this office at the number give(561-962-4224) and they had never heard of them or any such agreement with them.
I am a senior citizen and am disabled and am fighting stage 3 cancer , I told all of this to the representative when I first spoke to him.I find it reprehensable and totally disgusting that such people are allowed to conduct business in this country .That money was all I had,and set me back quite a bit,as I only get a small amount social security. I will keep trying to get my money back,but cant afford a lawyer. I sincerely hope that SOMBODY can get to that company and make them pay back all of that money they aquired Fraudulently from honest hard working people who have fallen on bad times.

The second order was for my wife's 10th wedding anniversary. Flowers were supposed to be delivered to her place of work. When my wife came home empty handed I flipped. Called 1-800-flowers and they said they would have to call the florist.
Took them 6 hours to get back to me. Florist had delivered to the wrong address. Instead of delivering a new arraignment to my wife, it took two days and the flowers were almost dead. They refused to give me a refund but did offer me a certificate for 20% off of my next order. OK, second time maybe an accident.
This last time was total fraud and abuse. For my wife's birthday, I ordered the flower birthday cake with the chocolates, bear and balloon. The previous discount they previously sent me didn't work. I assumed that it had expired although there was no expiration date on it. The flowers were delivered at the end of the day after 7pm. The flowers were wilted, the $14.00 box of specialty chocolates were actually a $3.00 box of Pepperidge Farms caramels that you can purchase at your local Albertson's and they were half melted.
I called customer support and got the run-around with their automated service. Sent 3 e-mails and they never responded. Was finally able to get someone on the phone and they apologized about the delivery but did not offer a refund even though I asked. They offered me the 20% discount on my next order. I told them to shove it and that I am going to do my best to make sure everyone knows how bad a service they offer.

Cesar Seda: I'm Going To Knock Omar Narvarez Out!
By Rey Colon
Cesar "Junito" Seda predicts a knockout victory on April 15 when he takes on Omar Narvaez, the WBO champion at 115 pounds, but said that if the battle with the oldest champion of the WBO will head to a decision, the voting judges should give the win to the right man.
"We're going out to look for the knockout because we know that winning a decision in Argentina is very difficult. He has many fans and 20,000 people will be in the arena but we are going to knock him out before his people," Seda said.
Seda (20-0 and 15 KO's) has seen several videos of Narvaez (33-0-2 and 19 KO's) and said that this week that he's going to place more attention on analyzing his style.
"We know he is strong and has a lot of experience, and skill, but we can beat him. I'll spend five weeks at the Olympic Village in Salinas. After I win, I want to unify the titles and then go to bantamweight. My dream is to be champion from 115 to 126 pounds," said the 5'6 fighter. "

Pettitte, Rivera pitch Yankees past Red Sox 4-2The Associated Press | April 05,2013NEW YORK Andy Pettitte pitched the Yankees to their first win of the season and Mariano Rivera made a successful return to the mound in New Yorks 4-2 victory over the Boston Red Sox on Thursday night.
Brett Gardner and Francisco Cervelli homered for the Yankees, providing some unexpected power to a depleted lineup missing the sore four Derek Jeter, Alex Rodriguez, Mark Teixeira and Curtis Granderson. All those All-Stars are on the disabled list, and without them New York dropped its first two games at home to the rival Red Sox.
Gardner and Cervelli each hit a solo shot, the first homer for both since they went back-to-back off Baltimores Tommy Hunter on Sept. 6, 2011. Neither player spent much time on the active big league roster last season.

Ndure Softmod Through Xboxhdm
Posted 10 December 2006 - 12:46 PM
After I did the mod I was given an error 21 code straight after the xbox logo all the time so I searched and found it was recommended that I restore the backup and try the mod again, so I did that but now I get error 16 straight after the xbox logo when booting with both the tray open and closed.
I can't ftp to the box as I cant get to the dash so I'll have to hotswap again.
Does anybody know if there's a simple fix to do?
Thanks in advance
Posted 11 December 2006 - 07:54 PM
Will someone help me?
I've broken one xbox trying to mod it(well me and a friend broke his, so he got another)
Anyways we tried this way:
http://forums.xbox-s...howtopic=496263 (this thread)
After swapping the HDD we choose option 1 on the disk( 1 + 2 gave same error) and it scrolled loads of writting, only obvious error message we could pic out was:
'Kmod: failed to exec /sbin/mod/probe -s -k scsi_hostadapter, errno = 2' (remove '') After putting the HDD back in the xbox the power light(green circle round eject button) flashes red constantly and the xbox does nothing, we've checked the connections.
Also once this is modded can we set up new HDD's (eg. 200GB) using this Xbox and leave our original HDD's untouched?
There's 3 of us, we all have a newest one (manufactured 15-May-2005 came with newest dash) and one of my mates has an older one which we broke.

part 3/3
should i be concerned about this or should the mod have been installed fine?
Posted 13 December 2006 - 06:15 PM
1.I hooked up the xbox hd with the PC's power cord
2.I booted up both my xbox and pc.
3.box went to MS Dash , PC went to xboxhdm screen.
4.I hotswapped the HD and pressed 1
5.The pc started loading and it said "No xbox data found ..... Please reboot. Type "reboot" or smth. like that"
6.I typed reboot when my xbox hd was still hooked up with my pc's IDE and power cord.
7.I tried to install NDURE again but the same thing happened.
8.I disconected my xbox HD and hooked it up as normal.
Now when i turn on my xbox i doesn't even load and it doesn't even show an error message. Only if I disconect the HD it loads up to error 7. when I was softmodding my linux cd was in the cd drive and there was no other HD hooked up to the PC (I have 2 and they were the primary drives so i disconected 'em). What can I do? Can I repair my Xbox? Please help me! Thank You all in advance!
Posted 14 December 2006 - 07:23 AM
After fooling with the font exploit forever, I came across this. Again, I had some problems, which I eventually worked out.
*Note. If you try this tut and you are sure everything is set up right, and your hd is unlocked, make sure your hd jumpers are set to master instead of cable select, as mine was being detected as hdb rather then hda.*
Anyways. My problem. When I hit the power button, the mod works fine. However when I hit the eject button to power on my xbox, I get an err 21 and my drive closes halfway, pauses, then closes the rest of the way. Why is this, and is there any fix? Possibly looking for a dashboard that isnt there?
Posted 14 December 2006 - 12:26 PM
It has 5960 dash, and 4187 kernel, which I've burnt to the CD using ndure installer.. all appears to go fine except it comes up with "cannot find /c/media/* and /c/bios/*" when i try to copy using ndure.. otherwise it seems to complete the process.. When i reboot my xbox, it just goes to the xbox logo with the 'microsoft' text, and won't proceed further. If I try 2. to 'create fresh c installation' it does not give an error, but doesn't work either.
I can restore from backup, and it goes back to as it was... but not having much luck with it softmodding to bring up unleashX.
Last time worked a charm..
Any suggestions of what I may be doing wrong??

1.My network cable was unplugged.
2.My keyboard is connected to the PC with a USB cable.
But still: What should I do? The HD doesn't unlock if the box boots into error 7.....And if I install a modchip will it fix my problem?
Posted 14 December 2006 - 01:57 PM
@sandwraith, when you boot your xbox with har drive connected, does the LED changes in xbox?.. Error 7 means hard drive timeout and a symptom of broken hard drive. a modchip will fix it if hotswapping doesnt work

@Mike Bowler and Cory,
its due to missing files in real C. The msdash cant find all the files needed for it to operate. make sure real C has these files and folders:
Posted 14 December 2006 - 05:25 PM
@sandwraith, you can still try to hotswap with the hard drive connected with different timings.. xboxhdm didnt do anything the the hard drive since it was never be able to launch any scripts.. make sure the pins in the back of hard drive is intact and the jumper is set to master.

What do you mean by timings? How can I change them? And I am sure about the pins and that I used the primary master IDE cable? Anything else......?

My real C appears to not have the audio or Fonts directory, however they are in my fake C.
My real C structure is as follows:
Would I just need to copy over the Fonts and Audio directory from fake C to finx this problem then?
Edit: I guess not. I just tried that.
I notice that your xboxdashdata is .185ead00, while mine appears to be an older version. Could this be a problem? My current M$ Dash version is 5659. Is it the fact that I dont have 5660? If so, how can I get this dash. The only 2 games I have now is Project 8, and Sims Bustin' out.

It was ridiculous to spend more than 4 hours on the phone with the customer service (redirected to this and that department and ample waiting time on the phone), to ask for an explanation. None was to be had immediately.
The telephone operators were transferring my call back and forth between the Revenue Protection Department and Customer Service. Apparently, Kayak.com had cancelled the booking without my knowledge. It was clearly Kayak.coms fault that all the problems occurred. They claimed that they had sent an auto-generated email, made phone calls to me and suggested that it was my fault for not receiving the call.
Kayak.com had caused an incessant amount of time wasted and my client to miss his flight. We had to scramble to book him on another flight at additional cost at the airport there and then. Again this caused inconvenience to all and gave undue stress to all. To add to their insincerity to their clients, Kayak.com refused to pay for the airfare and the extra damages that had incurred due to their lapse.
Kayak.com's lapse in their operations incurred damages and losses. Their management and operational procedures are flawed, putting the bookings and reservations in jeopardy.
I will not book with Kayak.com ever again...

Freeze Up! is a fast-paced electronic pass-around game. The object is to be the last player with time remaining in the game. The game is for two to eight players. At the beginning of each game, each player starts with 60 seconds. The electronic unit keeps track of how many players there are and how much time each player has remaining. On each player's turn, the unit will announce a category and a letter. There are 170 categories and millions of letter combinations. For example, "Name a sport, letter T". The timer will tick down as a player tries to name a sport that starts with the letter T. Once the player shouts out his answer, he presses the Freeze button to halt the timer, and passes the unit to the next player. The game continues with players passing the unit around and taking turns answering questions.
If you can't think of an answer, you can press either the New Category button or the New Letter button. But doing so will remove three seconds from your time.
A player can also challenge the answer of the player immediately before him if he thinks that answer was wrong. After the player before you presses Freeze and hands you the unit, press the Challenge button. The timer stops while the rest of the players vote to accept or reject the answer. If the group accepts the answer, the challenger presses the Word Accepted button and loses five seconds from his remaining time. If the group rejects the answer, the challenger presses the Word Rejected button, and the challenged player loses five seconds from his time.

Joffrey I Baratheon
this wiki
Joffrey I Baratheon was the second king of the Baratheon dynasty to sit on the Iron Throne of Westeros.
Early lifeEdit
Joffrey was born to Queen Cersei Lannister and presented to the world as the son of King Robert Baratheon. In truth, Joffrey was conceived from an incestuous relationship between Queen Cersei and her brother, Ser Jaime Lannister, the Kingslayer.
Joffrey grew up as a spoiled and indulged child, doted on by his mother. Despite this, Joffrey came to idolise Robert, vowing to become as great a warrior.
Despite this desire to emulate Robert, Joffrey had a cruel streak within him. After learning a castle cat was pregnant, he killed the animal and cut open its belly to investigate further. Proud of his discovery, he brought his findings to Robert who then beat him bloody. Afterwards he had little to do with Joffrey, and Joffrey grew up further sheltered and indulged by his mother, who assigned Sandor Clegane, 'the Hound', to him as a bodyguard and sworn sword.
Taking the crownEdit
After the death of Jon Arryn, Robert chose Eddard Stark, Lord of Winterfell and the North to succeed him as Hand of the King. He and most of the court, including Joffrey, travelled to Winterfell. There Joffrey and Sansa Stark were also betrothed in marriage. Although appearing polite and correct when needed, Joffrey had an arrogant streak and earned the ire of Robb Stark by insulting him and being denied the chance to face him in the practice yard. On the trip back to King's Landing, Joffrey attempted to bully Sansa's sister Arya, who beat him bloody instead. In a rage, Joffrey had a friend and servant of Arya's killed by the Hound.
In King's Landing, Eddard Stark's investigation into the death of Jon Arryn and the subsequent disappearance of Stannis Baratheon back to Dragonstone revealed that Joffrey and his sister Myrcella and brother Tommen were not actually Robert's children. He confronted Cersei about his discovery, and when Robert was killed in a hunting accident orchestrated by Queen Cersei, Eddard attempted to have Cersei and her children detained, but was outnumbered, betrayed and imprisoned.
Joffrey was crowned King of Westeros. When this occurred, Stannis, who had discovered the truth himself, raised the standard of rebellion and summoned his banners. Robert and Stannis' youngest brother, Renly, also raised the standard of rebellion and declared himself king by right of arms, allying himself to the extremely powerful House Tyrell. To minimize further bloodshed and restore the King's Peace, Cersei and Lord Varys convinced Eddard to swear a false confession of treason and command his son Robb, who had taken the field against the Lannisters, to stand down in exchange for the lives of Sansa and Arya and the opportunity for Eddard to take the black and join the Night's Watch. Joffrey upset this plan by ordering Eddard executed instead to please the crowd. This led to the intensification of hostilities as Robb Stark declared himself the King in the North and vowed to kill Joffrey in retaliation.
Joffrey held the Iron Throne through most of the heaviest fighting in the War of the Five Kings. The start of his reign was marred by the impulsive decision to execute Lord Eddard Stark of Winterfell on the steps of the Sept of Baelor. Acting impulsively after being instigated by Littlefinger, this decision remains one of Joffrey's biggest mistakes throughout his reign and was a sign that he was immature, out of control, and highly sadistic. Though he participated in none of the military campaigns or operations during the war, it was alleged that he oversaw the defence of King's Landing during the Battle of the Blackwater. This, along with many day-to-day duties, were expertly handled by his uncle and acting Hand of the King, Tyrion of House Lannister.
Even though he was only thirteen when crowned, he did not rule full in his right. This rule was shared between Acting Hand of the King Tyrion of House Lannister and his sister, Joffrey's mother and Queen Regent/Dowager Cersei of House Lannister until the Battle of the Blackwater. After-which, Tywin Lannister returned to his position as Hand of King, Tyrion was appointed Master of Coin, and Cersei was outcast from most Small Council proceedings. Tyrion was appointed by his father Tywin of House Lannister, after the execution of Ned Stark in King's Landing.
Joffrey's rule was nevertheless capricious, cruel, rebellious, and reminded many in the Red Keep of the rule of the Mad King, Aerys II. Shortly before the marriage of Margaery of House Tyrell to Joffrey, Sansa Stark revealed many of Joffrey's crimes to Lady Olenna Tyrell, the Queen of Thorns. In turn, Lady Olenna plotted with Petyr Baelish (Littlefinger) to have Joffrey eliminated in favour of his younger and gentler brother Tommen.
Joffrey and Margaery were married on the first day of 300 AL, a few weeks after the Red Wedding had eliminated Robb Stark and brought about all but an end to the War of the Five Kings, leaving Joffrey victorious. Instead, he choked to death on poison at his wedding feast. His uncle Tyrion was blamed for the crime and imprisoned.
Joffrey was succeeded by his brother Tommen.
Character and appearanceEdit
Joffrey was vain, arrogant, barely-educated, ignorant in many key areas and believed that force was the answer to every problem. He was altogether ignorant of the niceties and subtleties of politics. He could be polite and correct in behavior when necessary, but generally only when cajoled into doing so by his family. As he grew older, his behavior became more and more erratic, a fact noticed by many around him, including his grandfather and Hand, Tywin, who several times had to rebuke his grandson's behavior in public.
In appearance, Joffrey was tall for his age. He was not especially skilled at combat, despite much practice. Whilst handsome, he often adopted a sneering expression which rendered him less attractive.

Review: SEAT Exeo 2.0 TDI range
SEAT is a past master at borrowing technology from other marques and the Exeo could be one of its best efforts yet. Steve Walker reports on the popular 2.0 TDI diesel models.
Published 12/08/2010
SEAT has made only the most half-hearted of attempts to disguise the fact that its Exeo saloon is a previous generation Audi A4.
That shouldn't worry buyers to whom the Exeo delivers Audi engineering and build quality at a distinctly SEAT price.
They say that it's not what you know, it's who you know and of all the world's car manufacturers, you'd back SEAT to be a firm believer in that maxim. The Spanish marque has built its reputation by selectively cosying up to larger brands and borrowing their products. SEATs were originally rebadged Fiats and when Fiat pulled out in the early 80s, SEAT began its more profitable piggyback on the mighty Volkswagen Group, to whom it continues to cling today. What about the tradition, the heritage and the good name that some of SEAT's rivals have struggled for a century to build? Does anyone care when SEAT can offer cars like the Exeo which is ostensibly a previous generation Audi A4 at a fraction of the price?
SEAT has displayed a certain aptitude for landing on its feet down the years and with its current model range bristling with the latest VW Group platforms and engine technology, the marque's position has rarely looked stronger. The Exeo is something of a departure from the usual SEAT products which are founded on Volkswagen platforms because it's based on the old Audi A4, a premium product that battled the likes of BMW's 3-Series and the Mercedes C-Class in the compact executive sector. The similarities between the two cars are instantly apparent and coupled with SEAT pricing levels, they make for a package about which lots of buyers will be keen to know more, especially in 2.0 TDI diesel form.
The Exeo is powered by the familiar Volkswagen group engines that crop up in SEAT's other larger models. The 2.0-litre TDI common-rail injection diesel unit is sure to be a popular choice. Particularly in 168bhp form, this is a real cracker, blending pace very effectively with low running costs. 118bhp and 143bhp versions are also on offer.
The Exeo inherits the Audi A4 underpinnings that drew a mixed response the first time around. The engine is mounted longitudinally (originally to help with the implementation of Audi's quattro 4x4 system) but the Exeo, like the entry-level A4 models, is front wheel drive and having the engine sticking out over the front wheels can create a nose heavy effect. On the plus side, the suspension is an advanced multi-link affair and has been tweaked by SEAT so that it's able to offer customers a choice of Comfort or Sport settings. The Audi Servotronic steering has also been re-programmed for a sharper feel on the road.
"It's easy to imagine the Exeo's Audi build quality going down a storm with bargain hunters."
The Exeo's A4 origins are instantly apparent as soon as you spot it. SEAT has redesigned the front end with a neat grille and headlight arrangement, fitted its own wing mirrors and moved the rear numberplate from the boot lid to the bumper. As an attempt to disguise the A4's Teutonic lines with some Spanish flavour, this amounts to little more than a crooked false moustache and a sombrero. Form the side and the rear, the Exeo screams A4 and that's no bad thing. It's certainly a refreshing departure from SEAT's previous hit and miss styling direction that brought us the handsome Leon and the odd-ball Toledo.
It's inside, however, where the Exeo really impresses because SEAT has put a big 'S' on the steering wheel and changed virtually nothing else. This may be the old A4 cabin but it's still superbly built and beautifully understated in the best Audi traditions. In a car from the Exeo's family saloon sector of the market, it feels very special indeed.
SEAT is obviously intending to play up the Exeo value proposition and why not? The prospect of getting Audi quality for SEAT prices is a compelling one. Furthermore, the equipment levels will be more generous than you'd get were this still an Audi as all models receive cruise control, dual-zone climate control, a USB connector for the stereo, audio controls on the steering wheel and alloy wheels. SEAT is offering an Exeo saloon model and an Estate. Trim levels range from S through SE and Sport to SE Tech and Sport Tech.
The modern engines in the Exeo should return healthy fuel economy and low emissions. The 168bhp 2.0 TDI unit produces just 148g/km, with 49mpg on the combined cycle. For the 143bhp 2.0-litre TDI variant, the respective figures are 136g/km and 54mpg. That compares with the 2.0 TSI petrol engine where can expect economy of 40mpg plus 159g/km emissions.
SEAT has done good business in recent years offering its own take on Volkswagen products which bodes well because in the Exeo, the Spanish brand has got its hands on an Audi. The links to the premium German marque's previous generation A4 are obvious with the interior being of particularly high quality and some advanced engine technology under the bonnet. SEAT is also offering high equipment levels to further underline the Exeo's value proposition.
Some of SEAT's most successful products have been the ones that most closely resemble the Volkswagen models they're based upon. Punters have shown themselves to be only too happy to pick-up Volkswagen build quality for SEAT money and in light of that fact, it's easy to imagine the Exeo's Audi build quality going down a storm with bargain hunters.

It's time to push the envelope. It's time to push myself. Today is one which will be etched in my memory for my lifetime. I'm happy to announce that I'm now a proud owner of Canon EOS 60D DSLR camera. A huge thanks to my family for showing immense faith in my abilities & fulfilling my long desire. Its now time that I turn all those thoughts in my mind into reality. Its time to push the envelope further than before.
Most people buying a DSLR camera purchase it with the kit lens. The most popular lens to be bundled as kit lens is the 18-55mm f/3.5-5.6 for the entry-upper entry level DSLR models followed by 18-105mm f/3.5-5.6 or the 18-135 f/3.5-5.6 or even 18-200mm f/3.5-5.6 for the enthusiast/semi-pro DSLR models. Kit lenses are good to begin with but most photographers categorize them as junk as they drool on those fixed aperture heavy zoom monster lenses. If you've nothing more than kit lens then it becomes indispensable for you to learn to take good quality pictures with it. Following are some ways to maximize the potential of your kit lens.
Canon & Nikon have created two groups in the DSLR world with each group trying to outwit each other. Its an open truth that a good photograph doesn't needs a particular Canon or Nikon camera to make. It requires a creative vision & technical knowledge on part of the photographer. Yet people battle on noise performance, lens sharpness between the two brands. But do they know how futile it is?

iPhone Docks Made From Old, Recycled Books
"It looks like a mild-mannered book on a table or a desk, you almost don't notice that it's a charger.
No more dropping the cord behind the desk! The charging cord is well secured into the book, and it's designed to be compatible with all iPods and iPhones (iPhone 3G, 3GS & iPhone 4G), it accommodates sync and charge functions via a USB cable, wall connector is not included."
Being one of the first designers to capitalize on this growing trend of blending the lines between digital and analog (or err... what do lump the category of books in again?) in book form, we certainly applaud him on the polished execution. Available in his store are a number of carefully crafted docks made from original hardcover novels ranging from Edgar Allan Poe to Pride and Prejudice. Take your pick.
On the other hand, we're dying to see how he pulled this off without creating a fire hazard waiting to happen. None of the images show how the book is carved out on the inside, but we're sure one can use their imagination. Some plastic encasing perhaps? Whichever it is, we'll likely just pick one up and share what's inside with our readers (we've also sent him an e-mail asking if he would be interested in a guest post here at Unplggd).
You can still pick one up from his store for around $50-55 per dock if you feel like his craft is a little more refined than yours.
Thanks Wes for the tip!

Discovery Channels story on the Wild Monkey Boy of Uganda Africa is one of those stories you heard about fifty years ago but it was always considered like some sideshow act made for the carnival. But in this video there are true stories that now come to life on TV/
