Skill Level Intermediate
Sometimes, you don't want to send the information to an email address. It can be unreliable and it's not easy to aggregate the data. In that case, it's better to push the information to a database. Most servers come with some implementation of the popular My SQL database. And it's pretty easy to use since the commands are fairly readable. This isn't designed to be a full database course. We'll just be talking about form implementation. So for more information, make sure you check out PHP with my SQL Essential Training, and for more SQL information, check out My SQL Essential Training.
So, we've got a do a little bit of set-up. You're going to need to get credentials that give you access to the database. That usually involves creating the database, which you can do either through SSH or your host control panel. There's a lot of different control panels, and how you get to this varies from server to server. So I'm going to assume you already created a database. If you want to learn how to do that in some popular control panels, like C panel, Plesk or One in One, check out my course on managing a hosted website. You're going to end up with four pieces of data. The first one is the host name and here I place it in a bearable called host.
Some databases are hosted on servers other than your main domain. So the host name is going to be the url of the website with the database. If it's hosted in the same server as your site, you can use the keyword localhost. Databases are accessed with a username and password combination, so you'll need both of these in order to be able to post your data. I've created a variable called user and password here to store that information. Finally, you'll need the name of the database. I've called mine storeform. It's customary to place these on a separate PHP file and include them in your current docment.
The reason for this, is that you're probably going to want to use these on several files. So I've created this file, and it's called log_formdb.php. You can call yours wherever you want. I've placed this file on my server in the same folder as all my other files. Now, I won't be including this file in the exercise files for security reasons, but it's easy enough for you to create your own. In addition to creating a database, you'll also need to create a table. Think of a table as spreadsheets where your data is stored. You usually create tables with a control panel, like PHP MyAdmin, SSH or some other dedicated program. I'm going to show you how to do with PHP MyAdmin.
This my server's administration screen, and I've already created the database. But I need to create the table. So I'm going to click on this icon right here, and it will launch the PHP MyAdmin program. It's really common to see that program installed in a bunch of different hosts. So from here, I can hit create table, and in here I can give it a name. I'm going to call this form_info and then I need to create a number of fields. Now at first this program gives me two columns. The first column is usually a unique ID for the table.
So I'm going to call this form info_id. And I need to tell it what type of file this is going to be. Its already prechosen integer for me and that's going to work fine. This is going to be just an integer number that's going to be 11 units maximum. That's a lot of data base entries. Now you want to make this file the primary index, every database needs at least one primary index. You also want to check this check box called auto increment as you create new entries into this stable the ID number will automatically increment to show you've got new items on your table. The next field I'm going to create is a timestamp.
I'm going to call this one, forinfo_ts for timestamp, and this one's going to be a date and time. Notice there's a date area right here, and right over here under date and time there's one called date time, that's the one I'm going to use. You don't need to specify the length of a date time, there's a default length for that type of field. I know I'm going to need some additional columns, so I can save this or add a number of other columns. I'm going to need six additional columns, so I'll type that in, and select go. So now you can see there's additional columns, now it's switched to a horizontal layout here, but, it's pretty much the same as we saw before. I'm going to make these variables the same as the names in my PHP files. They don't really have to be, but it's just more convenient. Next one's going to be my name.
Obviously that's going to store my name. Usually when you store textual information, you can choose a type call varchar, it means a variable amount of characters. And after that, you tell it how many characters this should have. So for a name, since our name's going to be a first name and last name, I'm going to guess about 70 characters will be the same to hold any type of name. Now next, I'm going to enter my password. My password is also going to be a variable character. This one's going to be 60 characters long. That's because I'm going to take whatever the user types and then encrypt and add a sol to it. We'll talk more about that later.
60 characters should be enough to hold that. I'll add a section for my comments. Now my comments needs to be really long, so I'm going to choose from here, this type called, Text. I don't have to choose length or values when I enter a type of text. Next, I'm going to type in the reference, that's going to be another varchar, and I'm going to hold 15 characters. Then it'll be Favorite Music and again a varchar, 15 characters. Finally, I need to make a request type, and again, varchar 15 characters long. So, that should do it for my table.
I'm going to hit Save and it will create my database. So, there it is. And I can come over here and click on the database, and if I have any values, I can check on this browse part. Right now, this table's empty, so it's not letting me click on that. You can see the structure is complete, it looks really good, and if I want to, I can start putting values into this database. You can do that by clicking Insert here, but we're going to fill it out with our form. So, working with tables requires a little bit of set up on your part. And you are going to need to check out how your host handles database creation.
Once you have a database, you have the ability to store a number of records, and will later be able to query the database for any type of information you need about your users

Standing Out with Plus-Size Fashion Blogger Natashia Judge
Posted by Jane Janeczko on January 24, 2014
Natashia Judge, 23, is originally from Wales, but has been living in Gloucester, England for the last several years. She works as a medical secretary and her passions are photography, fashion, home interiors, swimming, and board games. She is also a fantastic plus-size fashion blogger and has a degree in photography. She loves taking the time to shoot her OotD's to post on her blog "Tea For Tash," since it combines her love of photography and fashion. Plus, taking selfies is always fun.
She finds fashion inspiration on Tumblr and from simply people-watching, since you can pick up on so many trends just from watching people walk down the street.
Natashia took the time to talk with IGIGI about being unafraid to stand out as a plus-size woman and how to pull off any look with confidence.

I received a letter [with a Canadian stamp on it] in the mail to my home address from Julian Venture, Inc. , 60 East 42nd Street, New York, NY 10017, with a check for $3550. They said that I won the British American Consumer Appreciation Rewards Sweepstakes in the amount of $150,000. They said to call this number 1-888-741-1386 to activate the check and speak with James Bissonet or Mary Jones. I called and a man with a foreign accent answered. I told him my claim #.
He told me that anytime I pay a bill, my name is entered in the sweepstakes. This is interesting as I rarely use my home address to pay bills--I have a PO Box that I use for a billing address, credit cards and on-line orders, however, I do have orders mailed ot my home address. So I am not really sure where he got my name and address, unless one of the companies I ordered from sold me name and address].
He wants me to cash the check, and after the check clears, I need to send $2880 for the tax due to England through Western England:
Susan Adams, 175 Johnston St. , London England. When I asked aobut a zio cide, he told me I didnt need one. After that, I need to call them back and tell them when I will be home to sign for the check in the remaining amount of $146,4500.
He said that he gets a finders fee of 5% to find winners and if I collect the prize, he will get 10%. [it should not be so hard to find me as I have been at this address for 16 years]. When I asked how I can check up on this company, he said to find out through the International Business Association. There are a couple of these and I forgot to ask for the main address of the IBA, so I can't find one that recognizes either Julian Ventures or the sweepstakes.
I tried to do some research on the names above, but have not found anything, The BBB in NYC is not aware of Julian Venture, Inc, The address in NYC comes up as an address of an Attorney group. I searched in London, England White pages, no name for Susan Adams or the address on Johnson St. I cant find the IBA. I should have asked for an address. I tried to call the bank that the check is written from, PNC Bank in Jeanette, PA, but it is Saturday and they are closed. I will probably call during the week.
IT IS PROBABLY A SCAM, as a legitimate sweepstakes would not ask to send money to a middleman. I would assume they would give me a tax statement and I would pay directly, but since this is out of the country, I am not sure of their procedures.
I will not be sending them any money. I am wondering if anyone else has gotten this letter or one similar to it.
I am curious and would still like this verified.

6 Responses to "Calling all savvy librarians"
Your post made it into LISNews
Hey hi, all,
I went to Savvy's Web site and saw this:
"With the help of it's members …"
And this:
"Savvy's RSS feed features library related blogs from it's members."
You would seem more savvy if you knew how to spell the possessive form of "it." The correct spelling is "its" (no apostrophe).
Vickie P.
Thanks Vickie P!
Oh this is very cool indeed! I was looking for something like this but the few that I had found for librarians were not all that great. There's another site that I frequent called infloox, which centres around the influential links between books and authors or other famous people. Because it's so interactive, I've found it quite useful in getting younger people interested in these subjects.

Report: British diplomats warned not to meet Israelis in public
By Jennifer Lipman, February 23, 2012
The Foreign Office has reportedly asked staff working in Israel to take extra precautions following the terror attack in Delhi last week.
According to the Times of Israel website, diplomatic staff were warned not to travel in cars with Israelis and to avoid meeting Israelis in public areas.
In the incident in Delhi a device was attached to a diplomat's car. When it exploded, it left an Israeli woman with severe injuries.
A spokesman for the Foreign Office said he was unable to confirm or deny the warnings.

Poetry: Language and Loveby Alexander Nazaryan
Vladimir Nabokov, Brian Boyd, Stanislav Shvabrin, eds., Verses and Versions: Three Centuries of Russian Poetry
(Harcourt, 2008)
Love for Vladimir Nabokov was hardly a matter of the heart. He once suggested that a writer should work with "the imagination of a scientist," and even his finest prose—probably Lolita and Speak, Memory—is more distinguished for a lapidary concern with the nuance of language than the humanistic and religious grappling of the great Russian novelists who proceeded him. Lolita may be a coquette, but it is the boundless possibility of English that is the true object of Humbert Humbert's lust. An exemplary polymath, Nabokov found himself enthralled more by the near-infinite cornucopia afforded by words; the lives drawn by them sometimes seem secondary.
It is unsurprising that Nabokov was a prolific translator, and that his translations are a battleground for the concerns that inform the rest of his writing. Perhaps as compensation for having left Russia as a young man, he was an assiduous promoter of the verses of not only Aleksandr Pushkin, but lesser-known acolytes such as Derzhavin, Nekrasov, and Lermontov, the latter long overdue in recognition from the West. His version of Eugene Onegin, written in a difficult verse scheme tailored far better for Russian than English, nearly doubled the size of Pushkin's masterpiece, but, as always, Nabokov sacrificed readability (and certainly brevity) on the altar of language.
Verses and Versions is the anthology of Russian verse that Nabokov never saw published in his lifetime. Capably edited by Brian Boyd and Stanislav Shvabrin, this edition places Nabokov's versions next to the Russian originals in an effort to lay bare (for those readers lucky enough to be fluent in both languages) the concerns with which he struggled. And the concerns were myriad: as Boyd writes in his largely illuminating introduction, the tome is "a master class in the possibilities and problems of literary translation." It shows Nabokov moving away from the relative lyricism of his earlier verses to the arguably bloated Onegin of 1951 when, as Boyd writes, he succumbed to "total fidelity to sense even at the cost of style." Though Pushkin understandably receives prime billing, Verses and Versions is notable for the attention it lavishes on the likes of Nikolay Karamzin ("charming, graceful" in Nabokov's commentary, which precedes each poet's selection), Afanasiy Fet ("a butterfly fanning its wings") and Osip Mandelstam, one of the great poets of the early Soviet Union to succumb to Stalin's purges.
Fidelity and fluidity do not always correspond in these pages, and Nabokov must occasionally content himself with clunky versions. For example, in Kyuhelbeker's "Destiny of Russian Poets," he laments the crowd's neglect of the prophetic poet "whose winged course, ablaze with thunderbolts, / might drench in radiance the motherland." The original has the simplicity of a prophecy, or perhaps a popular dirge; the scientific Nabokov is simply too verbose, and the poem loses the force of meaning.
But it should also be said that nobody understood the travails of translation better than Nabokov himself. In an excerpt of a revealing essay on translation, he laments the translator because: "the greater his individual talent, the more apt he will be to drown the foreign masterpiece under the sparkling ripples of his own personal style." He is markedly more humble in approaching the titanic figure of Pushkin in a gem of a poem entitled "On Translating 'Eugene Onegin'":
What is translation? On a platter
A poet's pale and glaring head,
A parrot's screech, a monkey's chatter,
And profanation of the dead.
Perhaps a sizable portion of the readership for Verses and Versions will be interested in just how successful Nabokov is in fusing Pushkin's legacy with his own, especially since the editors have capably parsed down his voluminous Pushkin translations into a mere hundred-some pages. But this book is just as notable for the minor poets it uncovers, those who rarely make it out of Russia. In that sense Verses and Versions is an unqualified success, even as it reveals Nabokov's struggles with translation.

No House to Call My Home: Love, Family, and Other Transgressions
RYAN BERG with Melissa Febos
DEC 15-JAN 16 | Books
I first encountered Ryan Berg's writing as a jurist for a fellowship a few years back. Ryan's submission blew me away. It was an excerpt from his just-published debut, No House to Call My Home: Love, Family, and Other Transgressions, which details the lives of queer youths of color with whom he worked as a caseworker in a group home. Here was a work both political and narrative, compassionate and scrutinizing.
Matter of Factualby Katharina Smundak
OCT 2014 | Books
At the very beginning of Father and Son, as writer Marcos Giralt Torrente embarks on his first nonfiction project, he quotes Amos Oz, who writes, he who seeks the heart of the tale in the space between the work and its author is mistaken: the place to look is not the terrain between text and writer but between text and reader.
Unholy Loveby David Winters
DEC 15-JAN 16 | Books
Past and present collide in the acclaimed short-story writer Noy Holland's début novel, Bird, a poetic exploration of the texture of memory and of the unconscious patterns that shape our lives over time.
Let's Talk About Love: Why Other People Have Such Bad Tasteby Kurt Gottschalk

Ok, So TURKEY!!! I rate the race aroun 7/10! The first 10 laps were like no other race I have seen before. So much action the cameras couldn't keep up! The McLaren drivers displayed some of the best racing i've seen for a while... continuious at least, the overtakes were pretty standard but it was back and forth for longer than we (as an audience) usually see, and it remained clean!
Alonso was a surprise, as much as I hate him, Vettel needs more cars to challenge him. Koybayashi was awesome, just a shame about the flat tyre, for which the BBC did not make aware to viewers I don't think.
Schumacher, well off form. I thought what Martin Brundel said was slightly out of order. DC said he just didnt know when to give up, to which Brundle asked 'you mean in his carrer?' Obviously knowing DC just meant about a loss of a place on the track. And talking of Mercedes, what a shame for Rosberg. I had him down for a podium, and that oppening lap really got me hopefull
I think the team just need more high fuel data, and an aero package to match.
Webber, 5th, 4th, 3rd, 2nd... He's very quick at Barcelona, we all know that! Could it go all the wayt to 5, 4, 3, 2, 1?? Can't wait to find out!
As for Sebastian Vettel. Someone needs to break his legs! All he has proven to me so far is that he is a time attack champion. I want to see what happens when he is out in Q1 like Webber in China, and to see how far up the pack he can get. I think he is single handedly destroying F1. There is no way he will leave Red Bull, and unless they develop a crapish car, he will own. McLaren and Ferrari need to step up there game and provide their drivers with matching performance cars, otherwise 'The Ferrari years' will become 'The Red Bull years' and nobody wants to see one man/child dominate the rest fo the field.
As much as I hate Alonso, I would be happy to just see a 2nd place battle between Hamilton, Ferrari (if they develop the car more, FAST!), Button and Webber.. But only if it is to be the case that Vettel just does a Sunday drive each week. We need some genuine fights for the lead though! That is the principle reason I only rate Turkey 7/10, none of the action was for the lead... and the DRS was off! Too easy.

I just installed WordPress 3.5 and kept the default theme. I rather like it and do not want theme suggestions.
However, when I hit "Customize" and attempt to change the background color, it doesn't change. Attempting to use a background image doesn't work either.
It adds this to my site:
<style type="text/css" id="custom-background-css">
body.custom-background { background-color: #006b11; }
But it has absolutely no effect and nothing changes. My site is here: http://mturkconsultant.com/blog/
I find it incredibly hard to believe (and annoying :( ) that this default feature is broken out of the box. What can I do?

George Benjamin and Martin Crimp's ground-breaking Written on Skin will be broadcast by BBC Radio 3 this Saturday (22 June) at 6pm. It will also be shown on television by BBC Four at 7.30pm on Friday 28 June.
The story
The opera, which had its premiere at the 2012 Festival d'Aix-en-Provence, was a hit with audiences and critics alike when it opened in London earlier this season.
Based on an 800-year-old fable called Le Coeur Mangé (The Eaten Heart), Written on Skin is a dark and powerful tale about violence, passion and revenge. Find out more in our Opera Essentials article.
The staging and rehearsals
Described in the Telegraph as 'enthralling and enchanting', the production features a 60-piece orchestra, a cast of five acclaimed singers (including Christopher Purves and Barbara Hannigan), and a dark and dramatic staging by Katie Mitchell. Watch a clip of rehearsals, including Martin, Barbara and Christopher speaking about the opera's themes:

The score
George worked very closely with the artists to compose the score, creating roles especially for their voices. Find out more about writing the opera from the creative team.
The CD recording of Written on Skin is also available to buy online, and the production has been recorded for release on DVD in due course. It will be revived by The Royal Opera in 2017.
Watch George speaking about the process of composing the opera:
A hit that will lead to future collaboration
Following the success of Written on Skin, The Royal Opera has commissioned another new full-length opera from George and Martin. The as-yet-untitled opera, which is expected to be created in partnership with several other opera companies, will have its world premiere at Covent Garden in 2018. Find out more about the new commission.
Other BBC Radio 3 broadcasts in the current series of Opera on 3 include Benjamin Britten's Gloriana, which will be broadcast live on 29 June at 6pm.]]>

Last night the Royal Opera House rolled out the red carpet to welcome the leading lights of the film industry for this year's BAFTA awards.
Ben Affleck's fast-paced Argo received three awards including Best Director and Best Film, while Sam Mendes's Skyfall won Outstanding British Film as well as Best Original Music, marking the first time the Bond franchise has won a major award for fifty years.
View images from the ceremony
Tarantino's Django Unchained and Ang Lee's Life of Pi also received two awards, while Ann Hathaway and Daniel Day-Lewis were also recognized for their roles in Les Misérables and Lincoln respectively. View the full list of winners.
Opera-fan Stephen Fry hosted the ceremony, which included a performance by singer-songwriter Paloma Faith. The full ceremony is available to watch again on BBC iPlayer.
The awards, now in their 66th year, have been held at the Royal Opera House for seven years running. Later this year, the auditorium will once again roll out the red carpet for the Olivier Awards, which celebrate British theatre.

Showing on BBC Two at 1.35pm on Christmas Eve, Pappano's Essential Tosca follows the acclaimed Opera Italia series, shown on BBC Four last year.
In Essential Tosca, Antonio Pappano explores the ravishing and gut-wrenching music of Puccini's Tosca and the importance of Rome in the opera. Antonio takes us through the work, both at the piano and in rehearsal with the stars of the Royal Opera House's recent production of Tosca, which is shown on BBC Two immediately after the documentary. The ROH cast includes Angela Gheorghiu as Floria Tosca, Bryn Terfel as Baron Scarpia and tenor Jonas Kaufmann as Cavaradossi.
Pappano's Essential Tosca is the perfect introduction to the opera for those who haven't seen it but should also offer new insights to those familiar with the great work. You can watch an extended preview here:
If this gives you a taste for Maestro Pappano's work you can watch a recent Insights event he recorded about Die Meistersinger von Nürnberg earlier this month, filmed in front of an audience at the Royal Opera House
Antonio Pappano is conducting Die Meistersinger von Nürnberg at the Royal Opera House until 8 January 2012. Find details of forthcoming Insights events on the ROH website.]]>
You have to feel for Faust; slaving away at his studies for years on end not getting anywhere. It's almost no surprise that he went for the option of summoning the demon Méphistophélès and swapping his hell-dwelling visitor's services on earth for eternal torment. It's a compelling tale based upon a centuries-old legend - immortalized in literature by Goethe - that since that time has been referenced in hundreds if not thousands of other works including Gounod's opera which premiered in 1859.
In film, diabolical deals crop up in a number of works including The Coen brother's O Brother, Where Art Thou?, with the character Tommy Johnson selling his soul to the devil at a crossroads for the ability to 'play the guitar real good' (the film in turn is a 1930s era retelling of The Odyssey). There's also a hint of Faust in The Godfather with the undertaker asking the feared character of Don Corleone for a favour, only for the gangster to request a favour in return. Both versions of Bedazzled (the 2000 remake starring Liz Hurley) also involve deals with the devil in disguise.
Television also provides a number of examples of the Faustian theme. One of the most well known examples of recent years involves a Halloween special episode of The Simpsons that parodies Faust with Homer Simpson selling his soul to the Devil (in this case played by the usually saintly neighbour Ned Flanders) for a donut. Other examples occur in Lost, The Twilight Zone and Star Trek: The Next Generation.
Other works of literature too have incorporated the theme – Oscar Wilde's The Portrait of Dorian Gray telling the tale of a young aristocrat who sells his soul to be eternally young with shocking and destructive results. Isaac Asimov also included satanic soul-selling in his science fiction stories as did Bulgakov in The Master and Margarita which sees the Devil in disguise visiting 1930s Moscow.
And finally popular music has also taken a influence from the work. Examples include the at-times nonsensical lyrics of Queen's Bohemian Rhapsody (in particular the operatic section) being interpreted as a murderer selling his soul and atoning on the night of his execution. Blues guitarist Robert Johnson (like his similarly-named aforementioned counterpart) was also said to have acquired his musical skill through a fiendish exchange with Lucifer. Radiohead have also taken influence from the work, most notably the tracks Faust ARP and Videotape – the latter featuring the lyrics "Mephistopheles is just beneath / and he's reaching up to grab me".
There are a wealth of other cultural references to Faust. If you'd like to share one you know of, let us know by commenting below.
Faust is currently on stage and streaming live into cinemas internationally on September 28th.]]>

The first day it happened was when I was driving a car and I was standing on the Red traffic light.
A car hit me on the left side of my front bumper. The driver came out of the car and wanted to shake my hand. He told me, "Just because I hit you doesn't mean we can't shake hands." He offered to call the police and the police was right there in front of his car. I decided not call for the police.
The second time my car was hit was when I was headed toward the Manhattan Bridge ramp and a police officer inside a police car spoke in the loud speaker to stop the car. So I stopped the car and a car in the back of me hit my car and the bumper of my car got damaged. The driver of the car who hit my car offered to call the police but I refused due to the reason that I am on prescribed medication and Assistant District Attorney Jonathan Lenzner wants to use this as a point to convict me for driving while intoxicated and send me to jail and take away my driver license when in fact I am in excellent condition to drive.
Thank you for reading this.

Great Rack
I bought this for my parents. My mom really likes it because it's light and easy for her to use!
- Familiarity: I've used it several times
I have used the rack 4 times so far and it's rock solid & it was not difficult to set up. I am very pleased with it and would recommend Kuat racks to anyone.
It is a bike rack!
- Familiarity: I've put it through the wringer
Nothing crazy, just a high quality bike rack at an inexpensive cost. Bike rack is intended to transport a bike from point A to B so you can go for a ride, so there is no need to break the bank on some of the more expensive models. Save the money , get this rack, and spend more on what truly matters....THE BIKE. The only downside is when locking the bike to the rack, the only way to get to the locking pin is crawl down on the ground. By no means a deal breaker.
Very solid and easy to use
- Familiarity: I've used it several times
I shopped around looking for a hitch-mounted tray rack and found several good candidates including the Kuat Sherpa. The plus for the Sherpa was the lighter weight, compact design and flexibility to work with 1 1/4" and 2" hitches. Versus its big brother the NV, this rack is a good 20 lbs lighter but don't confuse that with being flimsy or weak. This rack is still very well built and industrial strength. The tubing is solid and strong and all the hardware is very high quality. With my current vehicle, I'm limited to a 1 1/4" receiver hitch and I was concerned the rack would not be stable with the smaller tube size. Not the case. With the clamping feature of the Sherpa, this thing cinches right up tight and on its maiden journey of 6 hours on the highway, it never moved a bit - rock solid. The rack holds the bike secure without touching the frame (which is a must) and is simple to load and unload a bike. One added plus I didn't think I'd need was the ability to tilt the rack down to access my car's trunk. I thought only hatchbacks would require this but with the bike in the closest tray to the car the tilting feature is required to open the trunk. Again, very easy to use and the rack is plenty strong to support the function. I'm extremely happy with this rack!
Great deal!
- Familiarity: I've used it several times
Bought on sale and it was a steal!!! Thanks to BC!
Took a good 30 minutes to put it together but once installed I knew I was set for a long time! Very strong, well build and it looks great! Very light weight all aluminum body that's a plus. Quality is must for me and this one delivers! Bike stays in place. I put it through the test! Lots of speed bumps left and right turns later I was looking through the rear view mirror and the bike stayed solid in place, no problem! I have 2 cannondale trigger 1 team with big front tires 2.4 if you have large tires pay close attention and make sure the front tire is secure and in place! The down for me is that the hitch lock is very soft don't offer much of protection but then again when you have over 14k dollars worth of bikes in the back of your car you're not going to just park anywhere and walk away right? Over all, great product great quality and in my case I got it for less then $300, what else could you ask for
So the directions on assembly could've been a bit more detailed. That being said, this is a "great rack"! Its relatively light, simple to use, folds out of the way, and locks. Its got everything you need to get started. Its super strong and stable on the back of my Escape and Im sooooo glad I got it!
Just what the Doctor ordered
Had an older Thule rack that was much harder to use --- This thing is a breeze to use , much lighter than the Thule , making it something you use. If you want a great 2 bike car rack that hooks up in a couple of minutes this is the ticket and at the closeout price a super bargain
Best 2-bike rack
- Familiarity: I've used it several times
I've used lots of racks in my day, this is by far my favorite. Light, sturdy, touch less, easy to store, stable. So good I got one for my parents too.
Very nice for the price
- Familiarity: I've put it through the wringer
First, let me say, this product was in the perfect price point. I got this rack on a close out Tour deal. It is the older version, but in the nice colors of black and chrome. Fits the wife's Acura RDX perfect and really has some great features. I would recommend this rack, or the new Sherpa 2.0 to anyone looking to get just the basic 2 bike option, with no future needs to expand.
Not too shabby
- Familiarity: I've put it through the wringer
This rack has lasted me 7 years and it still has plenty of life left in it! Fits my mtn and road bikes well (including an 808 with the Kuat strap extender). If you leave it on for the winter, you'll need to clean and re-lube parts come spring time.
Easy to use, not as secure as I'd like
- Familiarity: I've used it once or twice and have initial impressions
I love how easy this rack is to use!! The locking pin that comes with it is a bit small but it works nice. However, there's an easy way to remove the rack from a car even with that lock in place, remove 2 bolts and the rack is gone. I've had several different racks and this one is easiest to use, however, my Thule racks have the best security of all of them.
Kuat Sherpa Bike Rack
- Familiarity: I've used it several times
What makes this a 5-star review (for me) is because of the hitch tightener that allows a snug fit of the rack and the hitch. The Kuat Sherpa is a solid carrier. Really easy to use. Assembly instructions were easy to follow and I was done in 20min. The only thing that Kuat can improve on is to put reflectors on the rack for added road safety. Not a big deal, but I like to add a little something to product improvement.
After reading many reviews I decided to jump on this rack at an awesome price from CC. I really don't understand the negative reviews about the loose fit in the 2" receivers. If you tighten the T handle and wiggle the rack while you are doing it the fit is solid as a rock. I think the adapter could center the locking pin in the hole better and if the hole were the proper size or the pin were larger it would eliminate some of the initial loose feel, but once you tighten the T handle it draws it up. cant wait to get a bike in it and go out and show off the rack. Also the customer service here at CC is awesome.
the sherpa claims to only work on bikes with a wheel base up to 44.5". most newer trail bikes are over this. will this not work with a Hightower or Stumpy?
Kuat bike rack
This is my 3rd rack I have purchased over the past 4 years. Not because i wanted to but because i changed cars. I started with the tule rack and it was very robust/heavy but did a great job. It was a 2in. mount. my next car could not carry a 2in. hitch so had to go with the small on. I chose the Yakama and was not happy with it. It just didn't ever seem like the bikes were secure. Nothing ever happened to my bike but there always seem like there was some play somewhere. The Kuat feels much more secure, and hope it will be around fora long time. It also weighs half of the other to models. That is very nice.
Great Rack
- Familiarity: I've put it through the wringer
This rack is awesome. Looks good, easy to load and unload your bikes, keeps your bikes super safe, and is easy to set up and install. I haven't had mine very long, but have several riding buddies who have had their Kuats for years so I am not worried about longevity.
I also have buddies with the Yakima and Thule options... I wouldn't say any of them are the end-all hitch rack they all work great, so I would recommend picking out the one you think looks best with your vehicle. I don't generally advise picking things based on looks... but I honestly feel that all of the high end tray style hitch racks are that comparable as far as performance goes. I've owned the Yakima hold up as well, and I have used the thule version on many trips with a friend.
Kuat Sherpa 2
This is the "light weight" Sherpa with carrying capacity of ~90lbs. If you only carry xc or all mountain bike this should be more than enough...don't see a need to get anything heavier than this. Two thumbs up for me.
Do you have plans to offer the pearl version of the Sherpa?
Hey Kurt - We have not ordered any of the Sherpa 2 in Pearl from Kuat so we will not be carrying them. Feel free to contact me directly with any additional questions.

- Familiarity: I've used it once or twice and have initial impressions
Nice hardware, good instructions, easy install if you go slow and read the instructions. Small rattle on hitch but no big deal.
Everything I hoped It Would Be
- Familiarity: I've used it once or twice and have initial impressions
I've been coveting a Kuat platform bike rack for a while, but I have an annoying Subaru OEM hitch. If you have one, you know what I am talking about. The hitch pin hole is only. .5 inches from the hitch opening. Most racks won't work with it. Alas, some friends have the Kuat and it works on their Subaru OEM hitches and the guys at Kuat said the Sherpa would work. And, it seems to. Ordered it last week. Came really fast and was not hard to put together. Watch the Kuat video rather along with the printed instructions. Only problem is the stupid little Phillips head screws holding the front plastic wheel that seem to melt when any force is applied. Carried two bikes today. So easy to mount the bikes. Seemed stable and is pretty light for a platform rack. It's a bit annoying that Backcountry said they had one is stock for $409. Four days later they have one in stock for $381! That's not good business practice. $409 is still a good price (for a model that has been updated.) Otherwise the rack is great. Hitch pin lock is a bit weird and the integrated cable lock is not exactly what other mfg call an integrated cable lock. (It's a plain cable that you have to attach to the hitch pin lock and loop around your bikes.) Otherwise, I am thrilled with the rack. I can actually lift it--it's fancy sister, the NV weighs almost twice as much. Ugh.

Joye Brown has been a columnist for Newsday since 2006. She joined the newspaper in 1983 and has
Nassau's policy of encouraging residents to appeal tax assessments is funneling millions of dollars to tax refund companies, which have ratcheted up contributions to County Executive Edward Mangano and other Republicans.
The cycle, which feeds public cynicism about government, is not illegal under campaign finance law.
Latest columns
But it ought to be.
Mangano has included principals of tax refund firms on his Assessment Reform Team. Nothing wrong there. Mangano was looking to benefit from the considerable amount of expertise companies gained from years of dealing with the county's dysfunctional tax assessment system.
Still, it was unsettling to see the county's top elected official -- who is charged with fixing the assessment system -- standing at a recent news conference with firms that likely would see greater benefit from a broken system than one that's fixed.
During that news conference, Mangano also tapped the expertise of firms in settling thousands of assessment appeals. Like former County Executive Thomas Suozzi, Mangano's goal is to try to correct flawed preliminary assessments before the tax roll is certified.
Nothing wrong there, either. It's a move that saves Nassau from paying tax refunds, plus interest -- no small thing in a cash-strapped county with a state control board overseeing its finances.
According to a report in Wednesday's Newsday, Mangano, using a variation of the novel borrowing model he put forth for privatizing management of county sewers, wants to sell $20 million in county tax refund debt to a private investor. The investor then would be repaid with interest out of Nassau's tight operating budget over seven years.
Mangano and tax refund company representatives praised the proposal, saying it would repay homeowners who've waited a year for their money and save Nassau the conventional cost of borrowing plus interest. Nobody bothered to state the obvious: A portion of refunds to homeowners who hired tax refund firms would go to the firms.
And some of that likely will go back to public officials and political committees in the form of contributions.
According to another Newsday report Wednesday, residential tax protest agencies or their principals have contributed nearly $450,000 to local candidates and political committees on Long Island since 2009. More than $70,000 went to Mangano, who was elected in 2009.
"The tax cert community is making a bet, a business investment that unfortunately is allowed by law," said Lawrence Levy, executive dean of the National Center for Suburban Studies at Hofstra University. "If the public is outraged, they should change the law and bar contributions."
Mangano has said repeatedly that his goal is to fix Nassau's assessment system. Until then, homeowners who don't appeal their assessments will have to pick up the slack from homeowners who win their challenges.
Which means more homeowners are going to appeal. Many will rely on the expertise of tax refund companies.
But there's another option: Use the form on the county assessment review commission's website and file the appeal yourself.

Killer the Third
In late June, when I was packing up for the inevitable move, I ran across some old heirlooms. Well, that's a pretty loaded word. It was, rather, a stroll down memory lane. Artwork I'd done at the fragile/fractured age of fourteen.
When I was in the seventh grade, my cousin – Bucky – and I played one of the Bard's Tale games on my dad's computer. We created several characters – all with names varying in levels of cheese-factor. My particular favorite of the bunch was a warrior aptly named "Killer the Third". So inspired was I by this ham-handed protagonist, I wove a fantasy novel yarn idea around him.
His real name was Darick Garvin, and he was a brooding knight who'd lost his ladylove. (Aren't they all?) After his kingdom was invaded by a demon race known as the Erril, he ventures out on a quest to restore balance to his wartorn land with a questing party of other misfits. The MacGuffin for the quest was also the title of the novel – The Well of Darasia.
I won't go into the "intricacies" of the plot; I'll save that for a later entry. Needless to say, this was the best idea I came up with in junior high. On a family trip to a cabin in Wyoming, I even devoted the better part of my downtime to drawing out the characters for my little opus.
This was Darick "Killer the Third" Garvin.
Rediscovering him was like reacquainting myself with an old friend. In my nostalgia, I even posted the old sketch on Facebook. Response was minimal. Perhaps because it didn't feature a cat. Or a baby. Or a baby with a cat. No matter.
It did grab the attention of my other cousin – artist Jason Norman. To the point where he decided to create his own take on the character. There were a few…changes, however. Killer the Third's scabbard became a jetpack and his spiked hair became a pompadour. And it was awesome.
Definitely a far cry from the brooding knight I'd originally conceived, but it helped brighten my mood as I ended my trip down memory lane. Or rather, art walk. Thanks, Jason.
Shortly after that, I began writing in earnest again. I don't believe in coincidences. Only "Killers".

World's Best Chocolate Chip Cookies (By Dorie Greenspan)
Total Time
Prep 10 mins
Cook 10 mins
This recipe makes a perfect chocolate chip cookie that is both chewy and crispy. It is from Dorie Greenspan's excellent cookbook, "BAKING: From My Home to Yours". Including nuts is highly recommended. Some variations: for chocolate chocolate chip cookies, substitute 3/4 cup of flour for 3/4 cup unsweetened cocoa powder; for espresso chocolate chip cookies, add 1 1/2 tablespoons espresso powder after the vanilla extract; for a coconut version, add 1 1/2 cups sweetened (toasted or untoasted) shredded coconut when adding the chocolate chips; and for peanut butter chocolate chip cookies, substitute 1/2 cup of peanut butter for 1/2 a stick of butter and beat them together before adding sugar (and use peanuts). Enjoy! Note: The dough can be covered and refrigerated for up to 3 days, or frozen. If you'd like, rounded tablespoonfuls of dough, ready for baking. Freeze the mounds on a lined baking sheet, then bag them when they're solid. There's no need to defrost the dough before baking-just add another minute or two to the baking time.
Ingredients Nutrition
- 2 cups all-purpose flour
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 3⁄4 teaspoon baking soda
- 1 cup unsalted butter, at room temperature
- 1 cup sugar
- 2⁄3 cup packed light brown sugar
- 2 teaspoons pure vanilla extract
- 2 large eggs
- 12 ounces bittersweet chocolate, chopped into chips or 2 cups store-bought chocolate chips or 2 cups semisweet chocolate chunks
- 1 cup finely chopped walnuts (optional) or 1 cup pecans (optional)
- Center a rack in the oven and preheat the oven to 375 degrees F. Line two baking sheets with parchment or silicone mats.
- Whisk together the flour, salt, and baking soda.
- Working with a stand mixer, preferably fitted with the paddle attachment, or with a hand mixer in a large bowl, beat the butter at medium speed for about 1 minute, until smooth. Add the sugars and beat for another 2 minutes or so, until well-blended. Beat in the vanilla. Add the eggs one at a time, beating for 1 minute after each egg goes inches Reduce the mixer speed to low and add the dry ingredients in 3 portions, mixing only until each addition is incorporated. On low speed, or by hand with a rubber spatula, mix in the chocolate and nuts.
- Spoon the dough by slightly rounded tablespoonfuls onto the baking sheets, leaving about 2 inches between spoonfuls.
- Bake the cookies- one sheet at a time and rotating the sheet at the midway point- for 10-12 minutes, or until they are brown at the edges and golden in the center; they may still be a little soft in the middle, and that's just fine. Pull the sheet from the oven and allow the cookies to rest for 1 minute, then carefully, using a wide metal spatula, transfer them to racks to cool to room temperature.
- Repeat with the remainder of the dough, cooling the baking sheets between batches.

I wanted a recipe that used real butter and didn't go totally flat. This is it! These are moist and plenty chewy. Twenty-five teenagers thought they were the best. I didn't use nuts (kids with issues) and I used unsalted butter so upped the salt a smidgen to compensate. Thanks for sharing! I will make this one again and again.
These came out great!! FYI they only come out cakey if you use baking powder instead of soda. I made that mistake. I'll definitely use this recipe again.
I made these cookies using Frango dark chocolates cut into chunks with walnuts and then half with the same but added coconut. They don't rise very much at all but they are very tasty. My oven is perfect 375 degrees and I cooked them for a total of 10 minutes. I think they are a good cookie and prefer them over the original "Toll House" recipe.

The 'Check Engine' Light does not turn off?
I have read every discussion on this page and thankfully my sonata runs good based on the reviews i read. the car is a well taken care of car but the check engine light stays on. it has been about 6 days and the light does not turn off. the engine and the fuse box are doing well. everything else is doing well. have had friends that work with vehicles and they say they do not know. i need an answer. my last place to go is to a dealership.
17 Answers
No one can help until you get someone to pull the codes the computer is reading in order for it to put the check engine light on.
Check the gas cap it is a common cause of the check engine light problem.
STOP using ethenol gas it causes poorer gas milage and resluts in the check engine light coming on. After two tank fulls of PURE gas ( non Ethenol ) the light went off!
Take it to the dealer. My 2011 elantra has been in 4 times for the check engine light. Thy replaced the o2 sensors, but the light still comes on. Hyundai corp is flyin in a tech, because they are apparently having widespread problems, primarily on the east coast. Dealer tried to tell me it was bad gas in the region, but I think that's a load of doodoo. Take it in.. Emissions system is warranted for 8 urs 80,000 miles!
Just have the codes read at autizone or something. The check engine light neans the computer thinks something is wrong. About 50% of codes do not create a driveability issue but is emissions control related.
FYI, I had the same problem (Sonata 2009) and had a dealer check it. They pulled the code, told me it was an evaporative system problem, and asked about refueling and the fuel cap. They reassured me, as I was in the middle of a nearly 3000 mile drive, that it wasn't critical. So, here's the thing. We were at around 6000 feet above sea level, in New Mexico. When we got to the Bay Area in San Francisco a few days later, guess what - the light went out on its own. Which suggests to me that it was to do with altitude and the changes in atmospheric pressure, and actually nothing was wrong at all.
I have a 2005 Sonata and have had issues over the years with the Check Engine light. Every time it was an evaporation leak and I got blamed on the gas cap. Recently it comes on more often and I changed the gas cap which did not solve the problem. The dealer is suggesting the Purge Valve replacement. Any thoughts on the forum?
I have had multiple check engine light problems with 2005 Hyundai Sonata. Car runs fine. replaced gas cap three times. Mechanic cleaned some things. Light still comes on after awhile. Mechanic suggested I ignore the check engine light because it will cost many hundreds to diagnose.
I had a similar problems with my Sonata which became persistent, The problem was my Purge Valve which I purchased on Amazon for $20.53 and replaced it myself. After that I have not had the problem. I also bought the Autel (MaxiScan MS309) OBD-II Code Reader / Scan Tool ($24.99) on Amazon to clear the check engine light. Hope this helps.
Could it possibly be the oil cap itself? I have a 2007 Sonata and the check engine light was on for years. I had a part changed from code readings (at this time, sorry to say I don't remember what it was). That didn't help. After my last oil change surprisingly the light went out. It came on a few times for a short time (maybe three days in a row) and then went out once again. I did have the codes done (when the light was on) and one of the things it could have been was something to do with the oil pressure. I have added oil in the past and just today I needed to. The cap was SO hard to open I had to use a wrench and a screwdriver. When I finally closed it, I used the wrench and screwdriver again, instead of my hand, and to my surprise after a couple of turns, it snapped closed. I tried to keep closing it but at that point it wouldn't budge. I've added oil in the past and never experienced this before and my check engine light was always on. I always just closed the oil cap with my hand, never to the point of it "snapping" closed. Hymmm....maybe this was why the light was always on. Maybe only the last oil change people knew how to close the caps on these cars. Anyone experience this?
There isn't a code for your oil cap, nor would it really cause any codes. Being off would be worse than too tight. If you gave us the specific code that would help. Oil pressure and oil level are 2 different things. If you run to low a level to the point oil pressure is effected you have damaged the engine. Mostly low oil pressure is due to worn oil pump or just a worn out motor. But without knowing the code I can't say much
I have to look for those codes!!
Don't know
No issues after replacing my Purge Valve a year ago. Please see my post above.
Never got the chech emgine light to go out. Been taken for over $1000+- by Hyundai deal er . Light always came back on within a few days after pickup from dealer. Ended up dumping the Hyundai shitmobile on Carmax.
Was the Purge Valve ever changed housing?
