Do I Need High Performance Tires For My Car?By david | Posted in Car Tires on Friday, February 26th, 2016 at 2:39 PM
You will see the advertisements on television and hear them on the radio. Tire centers are pushing high-performance tires on consumers. All the qualities of the high-performance tire are explained, the features that can help a driver magnified, and discount sales prices are all over the place. This is all very well and good, but a major question arises. Do you really need high performance tires? There is a very obvious herd mentality that is encouraged by advertising, and everybody wants to have the best tires. What is more important, however, is that you have the tires that you need. Anything more than that is money
poured down the drain. You have to be cost-efficient.
Advantages of high performance tires
To be sure, there are some advantages to having platforms times these include the following:
- Better Handling. Soft rubber high-performance tires allow the tire to better hug the road.
- Exceptional Traction. This happens because high-performance wide stance. Additional service allows greater connection to the road. This helps when the weather is bad.
- Better Stopping. The extra space of the high performance tire means you can stop quicker, and use less distance to bring your car to a halt.
These are some of the major advantages of high performance tires but you really pay a price for these qualities.
All-season tires
If you do not mind doing that, fine, but there are alternatives that costs less and have equally attractive features. All-season tires come to mind immediately. The traction is good on an all-season tire. They're extremely valuable in the wintertime, and have been known to provide superior traction as the snow is falling. Granted, all-season tires might not have the same grip as a summer tire but they have longer tread lives than ordinary tires. All-season tires also provide a very comfortable ride, and are highly affordable. Unlike the high-performance tires it does take longer to stop the car.
Which tire to choose?
It becomes a challenge of deciding which tire is going to be the best for your needs. If you have a sports car, the high-performance tires will probably be your best bet. These allow the driver to better explore the capabilities of his or her automobile. Then again, the all-season tire is cheaper with a longer tread life. You also want to consider if a comfortable ride is more important than the thrill of riding on tires with better handling.
When you look at all of the pros and cons, it boils down to there being no one best tire. Much depends on what you expect out of those four rubber wheels you are driving on. If you need something that is going to be gripping the road, and you will be often driving in conditions such as heavy rain, the preference can point towards the high-performance tire. The average driver should be looking at tires as if he or she is looking at sensible shoes, which is not a bad idea.
Because when you choose shoes, the rule of thumb is to buy the best quality which you can afford. That plays well with tire selection. You can check the treads on the tire, at the same time deciding whether performance is going to critical. If speed is not a major wish, high-performance tires will be a big waste of money. Also keep in mind your driving. All-season tires may be better for the family. What is essential is not to simply follow the crowd as you go out and purchase tires. You have to keep in mind what is best for you and the automobile. Buying a tire just for the sake of saying that you have an ultra-high-performance tire is a little bit silly. There are many other brands of out there that provide the kind of performance you want to have, and the comfort you would like. You can take a look at those other wheels as well. Remember that you don't necessarily need a high-performance tire unless it fits certain criteria. You can do just as well with something that is a little less expensive, even though it might not have the super traction or the performance. The less expensive tire might do the job for you, and not cost nearly as much as high performance rubber wheels.
Is Your Car Winter Ready?By david | Posted in Car Care Tips on Saturday, February 6th, 2016 at 3:06 PM
Many parts of USA have recently faced severe cold & snow fall that blocked the normal life for few days. Pollution or whatever the cause behind this; one thing for sure that winter with its cold blow will continue for rest of the season. And we may expect to get some rough weather. Is your car ready for the season? Here are some things you should consider to get the automobile ready for the rest of the cold weeks.
1. Check the Pressure in Your Tires. You'll be glad, you did this as you go out
onto icy roads. Pressure in the tires goes down in cold weather and you need to maintain the proper amount of air pressure in tires. It is not just to keep things safe because properly inflated tires can save money on gasoline. You may also want to think of using snow tires if you happen to live in areas with a lot of hills.
2. Check All the Fluids in Your Car. Winter is no time to get stuck on the road because of problems with the oil and transmission fluid. Oil in particular is going to thicken in cold weather, and you should be sure that you have the right oil for your model of car. Other fluids can also get thicker in subzero weather, so be sure that they are at the right levels and do the necessary fluid changes.
3. Clean Up the Battery. The posts and the connection of the battery need to be cleaned and brushed. You also have to make sure the battery has the proper level of water. A battery which is getting old ought to be checked by a professional repair shop to see if it can still charge. By all means have jumper cables in your trunk, or means of contacting emergency road assistance. You need to be safe in the event you are caught out on the open road in a major storm.
4. Inspect The Belts and Cables in the Car. Cold weather can cause cracking and considerable amount of wear on the belts. The cables should be in good order, and mended if there happens to be a crack in the insulation. Once again, this is for safety on the open road. If the belt snaps in the middle of a blizzard, you are going to be more than sorry.
5. Take A Look at the Defroster and Heater. These have to be working properly in subzero weather. If they are not, you could be facing a major safety hazard if you are stalled in a blizzard. The repair work could be a little expensive but it is well worth the price you will pay.
6. The Windshield Wiper and Washer Fluid. There needs to be new wiper blades installed so that you can see effectively. Vision problems are not always caused by snow and ice. Debris is sprayed onto windshield by other cars and can dirty up the windshield. This is why your washer fluid should be at the proper level.
7. The Anti-Freeze in Your Car Should Be at the Right Level. Your engine is going to have antifreeze ordinarily at a ratio of 50/50 to the water. Wintertime makes things a little bit different. That ratio should be more 60/40 to compensate for the freezing weather.
You probably noticed by now that safety is the major concern in getting the car ready for the winter months. Storms can happen suddenly and drop the temperature as much as 20° in the space of an hour. Strong winds can also play a major factor. You have to be ready for any emergency in winter. Your tires should be able to grip the road firmly and the brakes must work well. This perhaps a good time to have an overall tune up to be done on the car. While it should've been done before Thanksgiving, it is still not too late to see to it the car is ready for the weather.
We will probably have a few more weeks of nasty weather. The good news is that spring is not that far away. If your car is properly maintained and ready for the storms, you will not have a problem at all. A final thing to remember is trying to drive a little bit slower in the ice and snow. Things can get slick and you do not want to be in an accident.
Dos & Donts Of Car Cleaning & Detailing WorkBy david | Posted in Car Care Tips on Monday, January 25th, 2016 at 1:01 PM
Your automobile is your pride and joy if you really love cars. It is your little baby, and you do not want anybody else detailing or cleaning it. This is good do-it-yourself project but you have to be careful about a few things. you need to be mindful and do certain steps and avoid other mistakes as well.
1. Wear Soft Clothes and Do Not Wear Jewelry. The reason why is you don't want to accidentally scratch the car surface. Zippers and jewelry could leave a scratch you do not want on your car.
2. Do not use a Sponge. A sponge is a great device to use on the kitchen floor but it has an abrasive surface. You are better off using a surface mitt, or something else that is made of gentle cloth.
3. Be Careful About the Water. You should never use dirty water on the surface of your car. If you are doing the entire vehicle, you would wash the wheels and tires first, and then dispose of the water. When you are working on the body, you can have one bucket for the car shampoo/water mixture, and another filled with clean water. Once you have finished cleaning, you would use clean water to remove any soap suds. The car has to be completely dry before you apply any polish
4. Do the Work in a Cool and Shady Spot. The hot sun can evaporate the water while you are working and leave water spots that don't look too good. It is better to do the cleaning when the weather is cool outside, and in the shade of a tree or house. The surface of the car must be cool as well. If hot the temperature will force the evaporation that will leave water spots. A good rule of thumb about temperature is to do the work in the morning.
5. Never Use Dish or Laundry Detergent. Dish and laundry detergent contain chemicals that may not work well with the paint on your car. The car wash shampoo is what you need, because it has the ingredients that you need to have to do the cleaning without damaging the finish.
6. Use a Buffer Instead of Polishing by Hand. You may feel that you are adding a special touch when you polish your car by hand, but what happens is that you may get an uneven result. You might also accidentally produce streaks. A buffer applies the right amount of pressure to the car wax and can make the body sparkle. Think of it as what you do when you polish your shoes. A buffer always makes the shine stand out. The car polish should be done in wide circular counterclockwise motion.
7. Go Easy on Car Wax. A thin sheet of wax is all you are going to need, The biggest problem with applying too much wax is that it can cause streaks and leaves an unsightly appearance which you have to fix.
8. Pay Attention to the Bird Droppings and Other Debris. This is part of the cleaning which has to be done as soon as it is noticed. Bird droppings contain acid that can eat into the paint of the car. The same may be true in any other debris and sticking to the surface. You do not want to be in a situation where you have to use a sander to get rid of these eyesores. Water can be applied to eliminate them.
9. Use a Soft Towel to Dry Your Car. Having the car dry in the sun runs the risk of having watermarks appear. You want to drive the servers off of the soft towel. Always be careful that something which is abrasive does not touch what you've just completed doing.
You should also clean your car in winter, to remove salt that may have come from the road. Be careful doing this in cold climate, and you may want to do most of the work in your garage. You really do not want to have dirt and debris accumulate on your car. The matter how good it looked when it was first purchase, the paint job is going to dull over the years if proper attention is not paid.
My Foreign Affair 360 : The Oil ChangeBy melissa | Posted in Auto Repair in West Palm Beach, Bosch Service Florida, Car dealership values, Car Maintenance West Palm Beach, Car safety, Foreign Affairs Service, Oil change in West Palm Beach, oil change WPB, Quality car service, West Palm Beach Car Service on Friday, September 18th, 2015 at 9:11 PM
"It's 5'o Clock Somewhere"
Our cars that we drive day in/day out deal with our crazy lifestyles. The daily routines, unannounced weather conditions, lane-switching, music-blasting, brake-slamming behavior is just a "snapchat" of what our babies have to endure. Although they do not show their emotional breakdowns as we do, they are machines that have their good and bad days too. When your car is running outstandingly smooth it just makes you want to cruise down A1A, windows down, music up, and appreciate the moment. However, when your car is a bit cranky and not running as it should, it is probably because you need to pour her a good ole' drink!
We all know that staying hydrated helps keeps our body feeling and acting healthy. I have also heard in recent studies that one glass of red wine every night can help prevent heart disease (thank you to whomever performed that experiment). Like humans, our cars have several ways to prevent the unexpected doctor's visit.
Like water (or wine), oil in cars is used to keep the engine functioning properly. The moving parts included in a car's engine need to be hydrated and lubricated for free movement. In turn, when the oil filters start to collect too much grime, varnish, and carbon it can unfortunately cause engine failure. Therefore, we need to keep our vehicles hydrated and even treat them to a nice happy hour once in awhile.
For luxury cars like mine, the average oil change is expected every 10,000 miles or about six months (depending on how much you drive), although your vehicle manual will most likely dictate the recommended time frame. Remember: Prevention is preparation. Clogged oil filters can result in a worn-out piston or an engine cleaning, both too costly while you splurge on your next Tory Burch bag.

My Car's Time of the Year
As a woman, I must say we have so many schedules and updates we live by . From "it's that time of the year"…to " that time of the month"… to "time of the week"…and even "time of the days". If you know what I am talking about, we are all on the same boat. There are those "times" that we can call ourselves pros when it comes to self-maintenance, such as scheduling your regular mani-pedi or highlight touch-ups. However, there are those other "times" that we dread just because after all the years, we perhaps still feel like rookies.
The other day I noticed it is nearly time for my baby (2013 6-Speed Mini Cooper S) to receive maintenance. Being that my father has always taken care of my car needs for as long as I can remember, I can embarrassingly admit that I am a rookie in this game field, just like many others. For that reason, I did my research to earn a self-degree with specialization in Motherhood of my Mini Cooper.

How to prevent auto theft in West Palm BeachBy blogsadmin | Posted in Auto Theft on Thursday, February 7th, 2013 at 12:09 PM
Prevent Auto Theft
On average a vehicle is stolen every 33 seconds in the United States and most of those thefts can be prevented with a few common preventative methods. Florida is in the number two state for auto theft in the country so all of us at Foreign Affairs Auto are going to teach you some methods to help you reduce the risk of having your car stolen in West Palm Beach.
Auto theft unfortunately happens in Florida all and most of the time it's because of the owner's behavior. Almost 50% of auto theft is due to something that the driver does or doesn't do, like leaving the keys in the ignition or leaving the doors unlocked. Certain vehicles are more likely to become victims of auto theft. Surprisingly, instead of fancy sports cars and expensive SUV's the cars that are most likely prone to auto theft are the common run-of-the-mill passenger cars. Car thieves often target your car for auto theft because they want to sell your components and the individual parts of your car, not because they want your whole car.

said the word "muffins," her face twisted into a mask of pure
disgust, and she spat the word out as though it were something extremely vile.
nutty buckwheat flour, mashed bananas, chocolate flecks, crunchy
walnuts, and bitter cacao nibs, live up to their name. I initially made a batch in order to use up some over-ripe bananas, inspired by a heavenly banana cream cheese muffin that a (non-muffin-hating) friend brought to a party. I liked them so much that I immediately bought more bananas, which I proceeded to guard like a watchdog until they were bright yellow with black speckles, and ready for baking.
though I ended up altering nearly every ingredient to make it work with
the gluten-free ingredients. I upped the eggs and leavening, reduced
the sugar, and added chopped chocolate, as per Jay's request. (He was hovering around the kitchen going, "Oh boy, are you gonna put chocolate in those? Chocolate banana nut muffins are my favorite!" So cute.)
and buckwheat flours, and the star ingredient: cream cheese. Cream
cheese stealthily adds rich moisture and tang, and it also adds
stickiness, giving the muffins structure sans
gums or starches.
Bucking the trend:
Buckwheat Cacao Nib Snowballs
Buckwheat Chocolate Chip Cookies
Buckwheat Hazelnut Brown Butter (Financier) Cake

The nine-time world ladies snooker champion qualified for the Chinese ranking opener, but will have to defeat local player Zhu Zinghui in a wild card qualifier to earn an interesting first round clash with 2010 Crucible champion Neil Robertson.
"Even when I wasn't a casualty of the wild-cards, I wasn't a fan of them," Evans said.
"When snooker first went to China it was fair enough, the sport wasn't established. But China is a snooker power now.
"I was very disappointed when I found out. It felt like all the achievement and the hype was for nothing."
Nonetheless, the 27-year-old is proud of the progress she has made so far and hopes it will continue with an impact in the men's events.
"I just hope we can get people noticing women in snooker and build up the profile," she explained.
"I know it's not going to happen overnight but it needs to get moving.
"I won £1,500 for my first world title but only £400 this year. It's gradually got worse and worse.
"There is a lot of pressure. I do put pressure on myself but I've just got to try to relax and enjoy the moment, which is going to be really hard."

I use MarketPress Lite AND a Full version of MarketPress across several sites.
It seems PayPal is very strict when A user enters an address from the United States.
To Replicate:
1: Fill in your shipping details with a valid address (my customer was from LA, USA) - use google to get some random valid address.
2: Enter 'LA' into the city field (instead of 'Los Angeles').
3: Click 'Continue Checkout'
Actual Result:
You are returned to a page with only the 'Continue Checkout' button which the end user tries to resubmit.
Expected Result:
A MarketPress/PayPal message explaining an invalid address or similar error message from PayPal displayed in the page after failure.
I have not tested this on the other address fields when using 'Country: United States' but this only seems to occur for customers from the USA so I assume there are possibly some strict address checks for USA customers at PayPal. I also assume PayPal is returning the error but it is unknown to MarketPress full/MarketPress lite (after all, it appears to work fine for other countries when you enter an invalid address).
I hope this helps the development of the full and lite versions of MarketPress (and yep, it is loads better than WP-ecommerce as stated in the description)

Carroll trying to bury the hatchet with Harbaugh?
Was Harbaugh's PED swipe at Seahawks a mistake?
Pete Carroll and Jim Harbaugh both coached their respective teams to 11 victories in 2012. (AP)
The hostility between the 49ers and the division rival Seattle Seahawks reached new heights last week. This offseason, 49ers head coach Jim Harbaugh weighed in on the suspensions handed out to a number of Seattle's players for use of illegal performance-enhancing drugs.
"It has no place in an athlete's body. Play by the rules,'' Harbaugh said. ''You always want to be above reproach, especially when you're good, because you don't want people to come back and say, 'They're winning because they're cheating.'"
His remarks didn't go unnoticed. Seahawks cornerback Brandon Browner expressed his disapproval of Harbaugh's comments.
"He's never gonna be out there lined up against me. I wish he would. I'd put my hands around his neck," Browner said.
In the wake of a flurry of animosity between the two teams, Seahawks head coach Pete Carroll has decided to take a more diplomatic approach. In an NFL Network interview, he had nothing but praise for Harbaugh and the 49ers.
"They've done a marvelous job since Jim took over and they've done it all on the field. We respect that our division has really changed, we've changed along with it, and every single game we play is the biggest rival that we would ever know. . . . They've done some really cool things and play exciting football, and we love matching up with the division," said Carroll.
His comments are especially surprising considering the personal rivalry between Harbaugh and Carroll that dates back to their days coaching college football. In 2009, Harbaugh's underdog Stanford squad pulled off an upset over Carroll's USC team.
After pushing the score to 48-21 with a touchdown late in the fourth quarter, Harbaugh opted to keep running up the score by attempting a two-point conversion, prompting Carroll to angrily ask Harbaugh, "What's your deal?".
Carroll's commendation of Jim Harbaugh could put an end to the war of words that has erupted this offseason, but it's the battle on the field that matters. The 49ers and Seahawks will face off in Seattle in Week Two of the upcoming season.

"I would be remiss if I didn't write to tell you how delighted I have been with my Footwear etc. shopping experience. I recently purchased a pair of MBT Shoes via your website (at a great price, I might say), and then read a review that suggested buying them a 1/2 size larger than my usual size. I didn't want to wait until I received the shoes to try them on and decide, because the discounted shoes were limited. I went ahead and ordered the larger size too so I could keep the pair that fit the best. Gosh, you made the return process so easy! Even if I were paying the shipping, your rates are so reasonable that I wouldn't complain a bit. You're the kind of company that has made great use of technology. Your site is easy to use, and your approach to customer service makes me think that there's still hope in this world of ever-declining attitudes toward the customer. Keep up the good work. I'll be back. "

ALBANY — Political guru Gerald Benjamin wrote about Mario Cuomo's transition to governor in 1982 for a scholarly journal. With Cuomo's son coming to power, Benjamin will get to be a participant, rather than an observer.
Benjamin, the director of SUNY New Paltz's Center for Research, Regional Education and Outreach, was one of 16 people named Tuesday to Gov.-elect Andrew Cuomo's government reform transition committee.
The panel will help recruit, review and recommend candidates for positions in Cuomo's administration pertaining to state and local government reform.
"I'm very pleased that the reform agenda that was in the campaign will be implemented," said Benjamin.
Benjamin is the principal architect of the charter approved by Ulster County voters in 2006, which created a strong county executive position and will lead to the elimination of 10 legislative positions in 2011. But he doesn't see his role in the Cuomo administration extending beyond January.
"I've been working at SUNY New Paltz for 42 years," he said. "It's not for a lack of opportunities or imagination."

Can you please explane how it is possible for you to charge my bank account for a purchased full developer licence when i have not giving you any credit card details and have not buying any licenses. Only downloaded the free version.
Are this site hacked?
I tried out the free version of this plugin and it was able to complete a backup where Backup Buddy was timing out. So I went ahead and bought the full version. It worked well and when I had support questions, he answered within hours.
Definitely recommend. This one stands apart from other backup utilities because it has a one-click restore option. Very nice.
I updated WordPress from 3.9.1 to 3.9.2 and it broke my shopping cart solution. Fortunately I had installed the free version of Updraft a couple months before and so I was able to restore my database back to WordPress 3.9.1. The restore process was seamless, and as easy as clicking a few buttons. Within a few seconds, viola, it was done and my shopping cart was back to functioning. I had to update a couple things that I had changed since the incremental backup I restored to, but other than that it was a snap.
I don't know what the guy who wrote "HORRID" was doing wrong, but I found Updraft freakin awesome. It saved my bacon, and I'm glad, cause I love bacon.
Bottom line, if you love bacon, you should use Updraft.

Since I found out I was pregnant, I assumed I wouldn't have a shower because, even though I moved to my current city almost 4 years ago, I can name maybe 3 non-family members close enough to invite or host. None of these friends particularly like each other. Also, my mom isn't the hostess type, I have no sisters, and am not close enough to my in-laws or extended family for them to host a shower. I was sad but accepting of the fact. I've always been extremely shy around new people so missing out on stuff like this isn't new. I didn't have a bachlorette party either. Not to mention parties are kind of terrifying. But, then, one of my friends offered to throw one for me.
She is the hostess type but I have misgivings. She, a couple of friends, and our mutual acquaintances (the few that might come for the networking opportunity) are Neimens-type people and extremely professional. Most of my other friends/acquantances and family are JCPenney and...ummmm...not understanding of professional people. Even among those groups, there are divisions. There is a definite split of political active republicans and democrats. A couple high school drops-outs; some with 2 or 3 degrees. Those that drive $50,000 cars and those that make $50,000/year. And there are so few of them that they would have to mingle with each other. I'm afraid no one is going to show or, if they do, it will be social disaster. Just as an example, my mother-in-law can be very sweet but awhile back traveled to another state for her ex-husband's, and my husband's father's, funeral (she was invited) and had a police escort back out-of-state within 24 hours. She was asked not to return--ever. This type of person mixing with lawyers and MBAs. They may be friends/family but my professional reputation is on the line.
At this point, I want to say screw it and just tell anyone who asks about it that I just couldn't find a way to make a baby shower work. But, then I feel like I'm being judgmental and stupid for not taking my friend up on her offer. Maybe all these people will be on their best behaviour and I'm worried for nothing. So, I'm conflicted.
I put off answering my friend but she'll probably want an answer soon. Any thoughts?

A Rendezvous With 2 Giants
Published: November 10, 2000
(Page 3 of 3)
According to the ''Great Trees'' guide, the Staten Island tree is 146 feet high. If true, it would easily be the victor over the Queens Giant. But Mr. Leverett is an expert at busting overblown claims.
''We're trying to bring truth into the big-tree numbers,'' he said. The big-tree-hunting world, it turned out, is rife with inaccurate measurements. But no arboreal claimant can hide from Mr. Leverett's laser range finder. For example, he and his colleagues at the Eastern Native Tree Society discovered that a red oak in Michigan, which was listed as the state champion, was overestimated by 90 feet. ''Ninety feet, that's a whole tree,'' he said.
The Staten Island tree, which we dubbed the Clove Lakes colossus, was clearly younger than its Queens rival, and it had had the benefit of little competition. Whereas the Queens giant was losing its crown, struggling to get enough sun, the colossus was lord of the lawn, spreading out in every direction with abandon. The only hassle it appeared to face was children, running about on its massive buttressed trunk.
Mr. Leverett measured the circumference of the trunk. He hooked the tape to the bark and vanished for what seemed to be a long time as he made his way around. At 20 feet, the tape was not long enough this time, and we had to put a finger on the spot so he could measure the remainder. It was a whopping 21.4 feet around, bigger in circumference than the Queens tree.
Walking backward across the lawn, trying to get a bead on the tree's leader, Mr. Leverett commented on how easy it was to measure a tree in an open field. ''It's almost like shooting fish in a barrel,'' he said.
He lasered the tree with his range finder and worked his mathematical magic with the clinometer and calculator. ''The height,'' he announced, as we waited anxiously, ''is 119 feet.'' That's 27 feet shorter than the height advertised in the ''Great Trees'' guide, but, more importantly, 12.2 feet shorter than the Queens' giant.
However, Mr. Kershner pointed out that the colossus had more limbs and a more massive trunk. And we had to admit that the trunk was overwhelming. Mr. Leverett, who's no wood sprite, looked like a finger puppet standing next to it.
But it was all going to come down to calculations he would make later. Height is not the be-all and end-all when it comes to determining a tree's bigness. With more measurements (height to the first bough, crown spread), Mr. Leverett planned to use a mathematical model to estimate the tree's overall volume. ''I have to sit down with a pencil and calculator for an hour or so,'' he said. ''But I can tell you it's going to be a close one.''
We headed our separate ways and waited nervously for the results. The next evening we received word via e-mail. Both trees had an estimated volume of 1,750 cubic feet and weighed in the neighborhood of 50,000 pounds. The Queens tree was probably a bit more voluminous, but the Staten Island tree was slightly heavier.
So what Mr. Leverett was saying was that it was a dead heat. Until further review, we had two trees worthy of being called the New York Giant.
''At this point,'' wrote Mr. Leverett, ''I would call them co-champions. Should you want to take the contest further, we would need to have both trees climbed with periodic girth measurements taken for at least the first 75 feet. Until that is done, I'm willing to call it a draw.''
And so, until some hardy spirit clambers to the top of both these behemoths, bragging rights in this heavyweight-tree contest can be shared by both boroughs. As for the other counties, Manhattan and the Bronx seem to be out of the running and, while trees may grow in Brooklyn, they grow taller in Queens and Staten Island.
Finding the Trees
To reach the Queens giant, a tulip tree measuring 133.8 feet tall and 18.6 feet in circumference, head for a section of Alley Pond Park where the Long Island Expressway and the Cross Island Parkway intersect. At East Hampton Boulevard and the Horace Harding Expressway (a service road of the Long Island Expressway) look for a nearby trail into the woodlands. The tree, which is surrounded by a small fence, is a five-minute walk from the trailhead.
The Clove Lakes colossus, a tulip tree measuring 119 feet tall and 21.4 feet in circumference, is situated in the northernmost part of Staten Island's Clove Lakes Park near the intersection of Forest Avenue and Clove Road.
From Forest Avenue, walk south across the park's lawn for about 200 feet to reach the giant tree.
''Great Trees of New York City'' is a 48-page guide that describes more than 100 city trees of impressive size, age, species, form and historic association. For detailed instructions on measuring big trees, visit the Eastern Native Tree Society's Web site at www.uark.edu/misc/ents.

However, when I called in May this year to book a cruise in July, I was told it was filled up through September, which would not work as our grandsons are college students. I think they are way overselling the cruises and do not have enough cabins to book all they sell. The only answers I have gotten came from Angela Khalil, a name I see on another one of your reports. She told me the package was sold on a non-refundable basis, but I was not told that.
I have never gotten any kind of paperwork, confirmation or anything from this company, other than email replies to my complaints from Ms. Khalil. I can't really say she is rude, but she just keeps telling me there's nothing she can do for me.
I have repeatedly asked to be given a manager's name, to be given something in writing spelling out exactly what I am supposed to receive, but I have received nothing.
I finally wrote to Visa and complained about them, but I haven't heard back from Visa, either. I cannot afford to lose $898 and get nothing. I have taken nothing from them, but they have stolen $898 from me and delivered nothing in return. My next step will be to report them to the Consumer Fraud Divison on the Texas Attorney General's Office. I am totally fed up and terribly upset, as my husband is very angry over this whole mess. Is there anything I can do to resolve this?

Anthony Smith, a former manager at the banking group, accused senior executives of turning a deaf ear to employees who attempted to raise concerns about the business decisions being taken at the company.
He came forward in the wake of the revelations by Paul Moore, the former head of risk, who says that he was sacked after warning of excessive hazards involved in the bank's lending practices.
The claims led to the resignation last week of Sir James Crosby, chief executive at HBOS at the time of Mr Moore's departure, as deputy chairman of the Financial Services Authority, the City watchdog.
Following the sudden crisis on the credit markets last autumn, HBOS came close to collapse and was saved only with a taxpayer-funded bailout and Government-brokered merger with the Lloyds Banking Group.
In the latest disclosures, the culture at HBOS is said to have changed dramatically with the appointment of Mr Moore's successor, Jo Dawson, who Mr Smith claims had little experience of risk or regulation.
He said: ``I thought it was strange to appoint somebody to that position who was effectively a sales person.
``The Bank continued to sell more and more mortgages to people who couldn't afford it and the consequence is an £11 million loss.
``It was just an enormous selling machine, so with that comes risks, risks of treating customers fairly and lending to people who possibly couldn't afford it with the pressure to sell as many mortgages as possible.
``There was definitely a dumbing down of the risk function, and challenging the business... was not welcome.''
The former manager, who resigned in 2005, also said that HBOS appointed "relationship managers" to speak to colleagues: ``in a friendly way so as not to upset the business,'' which created difficulties when staff sought to raise concerns.
He added: ``We were constantly being pushed back and constantly being told that things had to be put in a way that wasn't going to upset the business - basically that wasn't going to stand in the way of the sales culture at the time.''
A spokesman for Lloyds denied Mr Smith's claims, saying: ``Jo Dawson is a very experienced and senior banker with more than 20 years experience in the industry. She took her role as risk director very seriously indeed.''
George Osborne, the shadow chancellor, said: "This is yet more evidence of systemic failure to control irresponsible lending at HBOS."

Performance Dashboard
The Citizen's Guide to Finances and Performance Dashboard provides information that helps measure quality of life in Royal Oak. The report reflects the city's fiscal stability, economic strength and public safety. While Royal Oak has always compiled this data, it was geared more towards finance wizards than the average citizen. This new system is compiled in layman's terms and is very easy to understand – even if you aren't a CPA.
Some interesting facts from the Dashboard:
** The City's debt burden per capita continues to decrease.
** The City's OPEB liability continues
to Decrease.
** The total number
of registered voters continues to increase each year.
** Crimes and fire related property loss are lower now compared to the year before.

A rollover accident on Interstate 70 near Palisade sent two women to the hospital and closed the eastbound lanes of the highway for more than an hour Wednesday afternoon.
According to the Colorado State Patrol, the accident happened just after 2 p.m. Troopers say two women were in an SUV traveling at a high rate of speed when they tried to pass another vehicle on a 50 mph curve.
The driver lost control of the SUV and it rolled three times coming to a rest on its roof. One woman was ejected during the crash and another had to be extricated according to the Palisade Fire Department.
Officials believe alcohol was a factor in the crash and say it doesn't appear the women were wearing seat belts.
At this time its unknown what injuries the women suffered. They were taken to an area hospital.
The Colorado State Patrol is investigating the crash.

The Richard Hamilton Acquisition Prize sponsored by Champion & Partners
Congratulations to the Cincinnati Art Museum, Recipient of the 2015 Award
Funded through the generous support of Champion & Partners, the Richard Hamilton Acquisition Prize provides up to $10,000 to support a museum's purchase at the Fair. Now in its fourth year, the Richard Hamilton Acquisition Prize has been awarded to the Portland Art Museum (2014), the British Museum (2013), and the Philadelphia Museum of Art (2012).
In naming the prize, Champion & Partners pays tribute to the artist Richard Hamilton, who inspired their own appreciation of prints, and his profound influence on printmaking. It was conceived to enable museums to acquire significant prints for their collections and to inspire individual collectors by illustrating the profusion of affordable museum quality works on offer at the IFPDA Print Fair.
Each year's selection process is administered by the IFPDA Foundation. A link for guidelines and online submission will be available in April 2016.

Growing up in her native Tucson, Bernadette Quiroz had long heard of a special, small Sonoran town, not far south of the border.
Her father, Edward Ronstadt, had enchanted his daughter and her 11 siblings with stories of that place and the nearby towns strung along the Sonora River Valley, about three hours south of Naco. It is where her grandfather, Federico José María "Fred" Ronstadt, was born and lived for the first dozen of years of his life before coming to Tucson in the early 1880s.
Quiroz's father had returned to the family's ancestral Sonoran home but she had not. Until last week.
Quiroz, along with her husband, Robert Quiroz, her siblings Paul, Bobby and John Ronstadt and Agnes Poore, their spouses and other family members held a mini Ronstadt family reunion in Banámichi.
"It was magical," said Quiroz.
It was a serendipitous weekend for me as well. I had traveled to Banámichi with my wife, mother and two friends. We, too, had long heard about the special towns in the Río Sonora valley.
We headed south through Bisbee and Naco, through the Sonoran grasslands, which turned into a gentle rise of hills and mountains. We drove into the river valley of rich farmland walled by jagged, craggy peaks covered by cacti, ocotillos and mesquite. We were safe driving on the winding, two-lane road and, for the most part, we were the only travelers.
We arrived in the land of flour tortillas, beef and bacanora, Sonoran tequila. We were also in the region which scores of Southern Arizonans, and families beyond Baja Arizona, call their ancestral home.
"I was looking at this land through the kind of lens where time stood still," Quiroz said, several days after her maiden visit.
Her great-grandparents Frederick Augustus Ronstadt and Margarita Redondo came to the valley in the 1860s. He was a German-born engineer and she was the daughter of a well-known Sonoran family from Altar, west of Banámichi. They settled in Las Delicias, just south of Banámichi.
All that is left in Las Delicias is a corner adobe wall, about 10 feet high, Quiroz said. The ruin is in the middle of a small forest of giant nopales, she added.
They walked through a family's home to get to the adobe remains.
"I could see where my dad was so moved when he visited this land," said Quiroz.
The ruins, the land, the vistas are the magnets that continue to pull Southern Arizona descendants of the old families from the towns — Arizpe, Sinoquipe, Huépac, Aconchi, Baviácora, Ures — which were founded in the 1640s, in the land of the Opatas.
William Steen of Canelo is one of them. His grandfather, Bernabe Brichta, was born in Banámichi in 1860, about the same time the Ronstadts were settling down.
He is pulled to the Río Sonora because of its peacefulness, its beauty, simplicity and people. It is a welcoming place, said Steen.
"You don't go there to go shopping. It's the people," said Steen, who grew up in Tucson.
Last fall, Steen, a photographer, accompanied another Ronstadt, singer Linda, to the valley, in a trip written up in the New York Times, with his photos.
While the Ronstadt family home stands no longer, the family home of Tucson lawyer Jesús Romo Vejar is still there on the plaza across from the church, Nuestra Señora de Loreto. Romo returns often.
"The people of Arizona, California and New Mexico really were one people at one point," and many of them came from the Río Sonora, where the Spanish had established their communities, said Romo, who was born in Hermosillo, Sonora.
And for nearly 400 years there has been a back and forth flow of people, which continues to this day, he added.
"The border has never affected this kinship," said Romo. "The families return and they feel like they never left."

Anesthesiology is a complicated business, and it's stressful to keep track of a lot of things at the same time—the right drug cocktail, the correct dosage, coordinating with the rest of the medical team. You know, just minor details like that.
And then there's that risk, teeny or humongous, that something may go wrong—the wrong drug cocktail, incorrect dosage, or failure to communicate. You know, things like that.
It could be stressful for neophytes to keep those t's crossed and those i's dotted, but consider what might happen if they don't. Death. Debilitation. Paralysis. Coma.
But you really don't want to think about these worst-case scenarios, especially on the job. Find a way to keep your mind clear and focused on the task at hand, and you should be just fine.

X06: Marvel MMO Coming to Xbox 360 and PC
Marvel, Cryptic and Microsoft bury the hatchet.
The game, tentatively titled Marvel Universe Online will release for both the Xbox 360 and the PC platform and is expected to take advantage of Microsoft's Live Anywhere infrastructure.
This partnership between Cryptic and Marvel represents an interesting coup in the game industry -- in addition to teaming up despite previous bad blood between the two companies, the Marvel license is being used by a company who isn't Activision (see: Marvel: Ultimate Alliance and X-Men Legends). "From an MMO perspective, it really made sense to go with Microsoft," Jack Emmert, creative director of Cryptic Studios told 1UP.
Bringing an MMO to the console space will be decidedly tricky, especially one that uses the Marvel license. While Marvel and Cryptic weren't talking about specific gameplay features at this time (why would they, the game is a long ways from release -- while no target release dates were being discussed, Cryptic studios told 1UP the game would ship "sometime this decade"), they were willing to talk about some things they see in other MMOs that they like: "World of Warcraft is a success because of accessibility to the user. It's a pick up and play MMO, same with City of Heroes. Having tried Final Fantasy XI and EverQuest, it was easier to jump in [to CoH or WoW] and customize your character and play," Ames Kirshen, Vice President of Interactive for Marvel Entertainment told 1UP.
"In CoH it was a goal that the game had to be fun to play," Emmert said. "But what CoH didn't engage in, that a game like WoW does, is an economy system. Playing the auction house in WoW is a game in and of itself, how does that interpret and how does that translate to the Marvel universe? We've got to figure that out."
The problems that face an MMO heading to the Xbox 360 are numerous and Cryptic and Marvel are aware of the difficulties ahead. First, the Xbox 360 currently has no keyboard and mouse support, and chat channels and guild chats are a huge part of the social aspects that make up an MMO -- does this mean a USB keyboard and mouse is on the way? Could be. Additionally, user interface customization is a huge part of massive multiplayer online games. Look at World of Warcraft: It's extensive user interface flexibility becomes a game of its own. Players are constantly trying to refine the UI to have a sleeker more streamlined playing experience. Is Xbox Live capable of allowing users to mold content and shape their own experiences? We haven't really seen any examples of that just yet and in order for Marvel Universe Online to succeed, we'll have to see some advances made by Microsoft and its Live service.

marvel MMO problemPosted: Dec 17, 2006 12:00AM PST by mr.radical
shouldn't they just have you able to make your own character but if you realy wanna be a certaint character like spiderman you can choose the make hero selection page where they try and make a duplicate of your favorite hero (only you would have to change the name most likely). What do u all think?
Re: Garet_JaxPosted: Oct 17, 2006 12:00AM PST by General_Thade_Rules
It would be cool to pit the PC / 360 (Marvel characters) against the PS3 (DC characters). Talk about a systems war!
I like a game with NO economyPosted: Oct 02, 2006 12:00AM PST by AlexiaAshford
One of the things I like about CoH is that it's about punching bad guys, instead of trading and crafting. The economy is very simple, and you start off as a super-powered character, dressed in whatever you want to wear, smiting evil doers with your fireballs right from level 1. I don't want to play a super hero game where I have to mine and smelt adamantium, then pay my guildmate to forge it into Adamantium claws. I want to start fighting evil at lvl 1, with my indestructable Vibranium Shield already in hand! CoH would have been a disaster if it had tried to be like the older MMO's, and forced me to kill baby rats with my Rusty Claws, and Tattered Rags of the Beggar. WoW is its own thing, and other MMO's should try to offer alternatives, not copies.
Economy??!! What Economy!Posted: Oct 02, 2006 12:00AM PST by Graf101
. "But what CoH didn't engage in, that a game like WoW does, is an economy system. This is utter nonsense-the WOW economy had it's back broken months ago by Gold farmers- the inflation that hit the WOW auctions once this began ruined the economy. BAH!
Garat: Marvel is only on Xbox 360 and PCPosted: Sep 30, 2006 12:00AM PST by John_Gamer
You hit the nail on the head buddy. Everything you said in your message was correct. The Marvel Universe Comic massively multiplayer onlinge game is only for Xbox 360 and PC. I cannot wait to play this game, because it will be the best! We are going to have to swap Gamer Tags, because anyone who loves Marvel comics is my kind of buddy that I like to play online with!
My name is-Posted: Sep 28, 2006 12:00AM PST by AlexiaAshford
Oh...my...Posted: Sep 28, 2006 12:00AM PST by bagleymj
Ummmm, is it just me or is this great news? I really liked CoH (for the two weeks that I played it). The only thing I didn't like about it is there just wasn't enough to it. The things that it did, it did well, though; and if they can simply build on all that made CoH great, this game will be just fine. CoH could have also benefited from a strong license such as Marvel. If this turns out to be "City of Heroes: The Marvel Version," I will be more than satisfied. Also, adding consoles into the mix, increasing the size and diversity of the community will be great as well.
It sounds good butPosted: Sep 28, 2006 12:00AM PST by kingsora
They all sound good before they are released. The only MMORPG I've ever gotten into for any great length of time, and I've treid all but Everquest, is WoW. We'll see where this goes but I don't really have high expectations.

Nobody cares if you don't like NBA 07. Maybe you just suck at basketball. Point is, even if this is the top story, nobody wants to listen to your inane bashing of NBA 07. I came here to read about the Marvel MMO, not your opinion on EGM and 1ups reviews. Gamer to a gamer: Get lost.

Marvel MMO = My Life GonePosted: Sep 27, 2006 12:00AM PST by JamieMadroxx
I don't think I will ever look forward to another game like this ever (unless there is a sequel^^) in my life. I am an avid comic book reader since I was 9-10ish and have always enjoyed the Marvel Universe. When I heard about this game all the way back when it was being discussed as a possibile game, not even concrete, I was geeked. I only hope they don't fudge it up (see Matrix Online) with the license. Even if they do, I won't know any different because I will be playing it regardless.

Forget a keyboard for an MMO like this...Posted: Sep 27, 2006 12:00AM PST by cypher50
I played City of Heroes on the PC with a gamepad and the only reason I needed the keyboard was to chat and because the controller wasn't mapped intuitively for using powers & such. I think that a gamepad like the 360's controller would be much easier to integrate into an MMO then an FPS and the XBL headset alleviates the issue of having to type to chat... More serious MMO fans will probably go for the PC version but I will get the 360 version day one.
Xbox 360 and PC are the same environment, this game will be released soon!Posted: Sep 27, 2006 12:00AM PST by O0QE1IHl52A48Bvyqpnh
This is one of the benefits of the Xbox 360 and the PC being so similar. Stop and think about it for a sec, if you are a developer, it is like developing one game for one system, but you are really developing a game for both the PC and the Xbox 360 because they speak the same DirectX programming language. This is a game that has a very large staff working on it. This game is not just a port of a PC game, or a port of an Xbox 360 game. This game is being released for both at the same time, and people will be able to play together. All the staff members for both the PC and the Xbox 360 are currently working together. No doubt about it, all the indications say that this huge development staff will have this Marvel MMO game done very quickly! Wow, the thought of playing a Massively Multiplayer Online game based on custom Marvel Comic characters, in a Marvel comics world is just incredible! A game like that is going to be so fun you won't be able to put your Xbox 360 down! I already have trouble putting my Xbox 360 down when it's time for dinner!
This may never see day on 360Posted: Sep 27, 2006 12:00AM PST by Yeebo
Assuming that work on the title has just begun, or will begin soon...and assuming that MS sticks to their 4 year console life span plan (ala X-box), it doesn't seem like this game would have much time to recoup development costs when it comes out for the 360. I think we'll probably only see it on the PC, and maybe for the next X-box. The announcment of this game for the 360 is just a press stunt to try and counteract the announcement of DC heroes online for the PS3, which is well under development and headed for a console that will presumably be around for longer anyway. I'd love to be wrong, since I've always liked Marvel better than DC, gaming from my couch is better than gaming in front of a desk, and I've been leaning towards getting a 360 lately instead of PS3 (if I bought a PS3 at launch I'd be using it mostly for PS2 games for at least the next year...that seems a bit pointless). But really, I won't be holding my breath.
Hmm sounds good to me.Posted: Sep 27, 2006 12:00AM PST by ShadOwFace
ANouther mmo to the 360 that acually is made right .....sounds nothing but ooowee goowee goodness to me.
360 already uses mouse and keyboardPosted: Sep 27, 2006 12:00AM PST by NES_Setzer
FFXI, for example, allows for you to plug in any standard USB Keyboard or mouse and use them to play the game. So that is most certainly not a factor or a deteriment against MMOs on the 360s, and the article should reflect that rather then giving false information.
CoolioPosted: Sep 27, 2006 12:00AM PST by themanlydeadguy
Not a suprise because wasnt this was announced last year, but its good to hear its on track for a release sometime in the future.
ExcitingPosted: Sep 27, 2006 12:00AM PST by Cpt_Obvious
I'd play it IF it doesn't cost $20 a month like every other MMO out there! I refuse to pay $60-$70 for the game then another $240 a year just to play it!!! It's not worth it to me.
And there off!!!!Posted: Sep 27, 2006 12:00AM PST by Deadly_Bacon
Marvel MMO should be great in any situationPosted: Sep 27, 2006 12:00AM PST by O0QE1IHl52A48Bvyqpnh
This MMO should be fun! Xbox 360 had a headset/microphone, and it also has USB connection ports that allow keyboards to work with it. This type of open environment works out great. The Xbox 360 is going to see a lot of games like this in the future.

The Wild Alaskan is unprofessionally runned by Darren Byler and Kimberly Byler. The Wild Alaskan is NOT a safe place for dancers to work and live. The owner Darren Byler is very aggressive and physically abusive to his dancers. Darren owns the boat, he is a pathological liar and cheat. Just google Darren Byler and you will see tons of complaints from his previous business endavors from consumers all the way to the federal government. Darren Byler constantly screams at his dancers in rage even taking the dancers personal property away from them. The wild Alaskan is in a far away sucluded location in the middle of the ocean and is not safe for the traveling dancer.

The Modelling of the Volatility of Business cycles in Romania
The latest research highlights the existence of the asymmetry of the volatility of business cycles. In this context, in this paper we firstly aim to test whether the volatility of business cycles in Romania is constant or not and then, according to the identified result we try to model it. For the determination of business cycles of Romania we use the index of the industrial production registered during the period January 2000 – May 2011. The estimation of the business cycles is conducted by means of the Hodrick-Prescot filter. The results obtained confirm that the volatility of business cycles of Romania is not constant and suggest the possibility of taking into account the heteroscedastic models. The estimation of the EGARCH model shows that Romania's business cycles present an asymmetric volatility.
