The average cost for a Alternator Replacement is between $286 and $440. Labor costs are estimated between $105 and $134 while parts are priced between $181 and $306. Get a personalized estimate based on your location and specific car. Estimate does not include taxes and fees.
Alternator Replacement Cost for Dodge Ram Wagon B150
Alternator Replacement Estimate (National Average)
The entire starting and charging system should be inspected before replacing the alternator to eliminate other problems that may be affecting the alternator's performance. For instance, a weak battery and/or battery cables will result in a failed alternator test.
The alternator belt may be partially or totally removed while replacing the alternator, so if it shows signs of wear, this is a good time to replace it.
A weak alternator can result in dimming of the dashboard lights and the headlights.
A failing alternator can cause problems starting the vehicle and may result in a repeated need to jump start the vehicle.
If your battery cannot deliver 10 volts or more during a battery load test, the Dodge Ram Wagon B150 may continue to experience starting problems if the battery is not replaced.

Penne with triple-tomato pesto
Makes 4 servings
One of the joys of this pesto is that it can be made in advance and refrigerated in a covered container for up to 3 days. Reheat it and toss with freshly cooked pasta. The chèvre will melt into the dish, creating a luscious creamy topping. Kids may prefer a garnish of freshly grated Parmesan cheese.
For the pesto
¼ cup minced oil-packed sun-dried tomatoes, drain and reserve 1 tablespoon oil
½ cup finely chopped onion
2 cloves garlic, minced
One 15-ounce can diced tomatoes
¼ cup Syrah or other full-bodied, peppery red wine
4 plum tomatoes, cut into ½-inch cubes
1 teaspoon sugar
¼ teaspoon salt, or to taste
¼ teaspoon freshly ground pepper, or to taste
For the pasta
12 ounces (4 cups) penne
¼ cup minced fresh flat-leaf parsley
4 ounces fresh white goat cheese (chèvre), at room temperature
Freshly ground pepper and sprigs of fresh basil for garnish
To make the pesto, heat the reserved oil from the sun-dried tomatoes in a large nonstick sauté pan over medium-high heat. Add the onion; cook, stirring occasionally, until translucent, about 5 minutes. Add the garlic; stir constantly for about 1 minute. Stir in the remaining pesto ingredients. Reduce the heat to medium and cook, uncovered, stirring occasionally until most of the liquid is evaporated, about 20 minutes.
Meanwhile, bring a large pot of salted water to a boil over high heat. When the sauce has just 10 minutes remaining, cook the penne according to package directions.
When the penne is done, drain well. Return it to the pot. Add the pesto and parsley; toss gently. Taste and adjust the seasoning.
Top each serving with a dollop of chèvre and garnish with pepper and basil sprigs.

DuVall, Cantrell keep Alice in Chains' drone-rock alive
In the early 1990s, when music journalists with nothing better to do hastily gathered together various Seattle-area rock bands - Nirvana, Mudhoney, Pearl Jam, Soundgarden, etc. - under the term "grunge," Alice in Chains came closest to what little tangible definition the term had.

Quasimondo takes dark, funny look at American life in 'Americlown'
In the first of 14 skits composing "Americlown" — a provocative and original production from Quasimondo Milwaukee Physical Theatre's Brian Rott and Jessi Miller — we watch the cast impersonate young schoolchildren, awakening to the magic of language as they painstakingly spell out a word, with awe and mystery in their eyes.
That word is pledge, and within seconds this slightly discombobulated troupe of innocents has been whipped into shape, becoming a regimented cadre. Eyes blazing with hate, they defiantly shout allegiance to the flag while marching off to war. »Read Full Article(2)

Kristen Wiig's new movie "Girl Most Likely" has reasons to succeed, but sadly the story is just too much of a mishmash to realize its potential.
Wiig plays Imogene, a Manhattanite who works at a magazine writing blurb copy. One of her jobs is to create synopses about Broadway plays, but the aspiring playwright ends up writing reviews. When she writes a particularly negative review about a classic musical, it's the last straw. She loses her job. Soon after, her European boyfriend (Imogene wants everyone to know he's Dutch), dumps her. It's all downward from here.
After desperate attempts to get him back, one which involves her being sent to a psych ward, Imogene is forced to move back to her family's home in New Jersey and that means dealing with her oddball mother, Zelda (Annette Bening), a compulsive gambler. When Imogene arrives home, she finds that Zelda has rented her room to a casino entertainer named Lee (Darren "Glee" Criss) and that also living in the house is her mother's younger boyfriend, George Bousche (Matt Dillon), a supposed C.I.A. operative. Toss into the mix Imogene's brother, Ralph (Christopher Fitzgerald), who is obsessed with crustaceans and owns a kiosk on the boardwalk named Crabville, and it's a family cast for a segment of "Jerry Springer."
Directed by Shari Springer Berman and Robert Pulcini ("American Splendor"), the film's eccentricities get in the way of a meaningful tale. Michelle Morgan's screenplay vacillates between the story of a woman whose forced to reconnect with a family she had detached from to a mishmash of silly storylines that are hard to follow — Ralph creates a mollusk mimicking device that humans can wear and George Bousche maybe really be a spy. Huh?
Perhaps the most honest portrayals come from Wiig and Bening when they're trapped in the dysfunction of their volatile mother-daughter relationship. Wiig's Imogene, otherwise, is cut from the same character cloth as cupcake artist Annie in "Bridesmaids" and Dillon rehashes his Ted role "There's Something About Mary." Bening is worth spending time with, however, where she really proves that she can play comedy.
"Girl Most Likely" has a few payoffs here and there. The choice by the filmmakers to set the tone as an independent movie gives reason for its quirkiness, Bob Balaban showing up as a family member from Imogene's past, and a few good jokes now and again make the movie worthy, but overall there's a lack of substance.
This was a project Wiig had her eye on and as one of Hollywood's current "it girl" comics, she can have her pick of the litter. Here's hoping that her next endeavor makes her a girl most likely to have a box office hit. This one will probably have a short shelf life.

Aubrey Hampton
A pioneer in natural hair and skin care, Aubrey Hampton paved the way for a fledging natural products industry in the 1960s by making plant-based, synthetic-free personal care products on his own terms. Today his hair, skin and body care line is sold all over the world, but his connection to natural ingredients goes back to his father's organic farm in southern Indiana, where his mother made her own herbal beauty products at home.
A phytochemist and herbalist, he founded Aubrey Nature Labs in 1967 with just two products Relax-R-Bath and GPB Hair Conditioner simple beginning he quickly grew into the multi-national, multi-million dollar company that bears his name. Through the years Aubrey created over 200 hair, skin and body care products, which are internationally recognized as the most natural herbal products available. Nearly every health food store in the United States and Canada carries his products, which are also sold throughout Europe, Asia and South America.
Aubrey's list of "firsts" in the industry is impressive. He was first to use coconut fatty acids in hair and skin care; first to formulate cosmetic products with jojoba oil, evening primrose, blue camomile, Rosa Mosqueta® and Matcha green tea; first to develop a natural preservative with citrus extract and vitamins A, C and E; and the first cosmetic manufacturer to be certified as an organic processor (in 1994).
A dedicated animal rights activist, Aubrey was strongly committed to operating a cruelty-free company, a commitment that continues at our company to this day. In 1990 he was named "Activist of the Year" by the Culture and Animals Foundation for his work against animal testing.
He was the author of many best-selling health and beauty books, including Natural Organic Hair and Skin Care (now in its sixth printing), What's in Your Cosmetics, and The Take Charge Beauty Book (co-authored with his late wife, Susan Hussey). An award-winning playwright, he published two books of plays, GBS & Company and Wolf Trilogy, and was co-founder of the Gorilla Theatre, in Tampa, FL. He was founder and publisher of Organica, an arts and environmental publication with 70,000 readers nationwide.
Aubrey passed away on May 9, 2011, after a brief illness, but his essential work continues. At Aubrey Organics, Inc. we strive to carry on his important legacy with natural, environmentally sound products that reflect Aubrey Hampton's philosophy, personal values and commitment to the earth.

Michael Young, Young Catchers and Catching Angels Events
Michael Young? No, thanks. None for me please.
So Michael Young has had all he can stand and he can't stands no more and he's asked to be traded. I can't say that blame him really, not that I blame the Rangers either. The team is making good deals but I can only imagine what went through Young's mind when they signed Mike Napoli after he had already agreed to move to DH for Adrian Beltre…the All-State Insurance commercial with Mayhem as the distraught, dumped teenaged girl, however, does come to mind. It sounds to me like he's headed for the Rockies. Of course, the being the media's front runner hasn't meant a whole lot this offseason, so you just never know and there are other teams – and other teams fans – who want him badly.
I may be in the minority, but I don't want him for the Angels. He's a stand up, team player kind of guy and I would love to have a bat like his in the lineup. But defensively he's no better and possibly not quite as good as what we've already – which is not to say that the Angels third base options couldn't use some defensive improvement. For me, Young's bat alone doesn't justify the players we would have to give up -and then face again, and again and again in Texas – to get him. Another team could make the trade and be happier and better for it, but I just don't think the Angels are the right fit.
Young Catchers Trend Continues in 2011
MLB.com had a great article today about the large group of talented young catchers who should see some major league playing time next year. It was nice to see that the Angel's Hank Conger prominently mentioned and frequently quoted. Conger impressed me behind the plate last season. If he can find his bat against major league pitching this season and find it quickly, he could really go places. Conger was even one of four catchers included in the photo when the article was highlighted on MLB's front page this morning, before the news lit up with speculation about Pujols and Young. The photo was actually a montage of four tall, skinny photos, one of each catcher in a different crouch or catching position. Of course, when I was trying to explain this to my husband this evening, what I came up with was that it looked very Charlie's Angels, actually, but with photos instead of silhouettes and mitts instead of guns. Sadly this was apt and he knew exactly what article I was talking about from this description. We both laughed a lot.
Why must all of the fun events happen during the week?
The Angels open house? All of the press conferences? And now the Inland Empire 66ers Affiliation Celebration – celebrating the Angels new advanced A affiliation? (Basically, the Angels and Dodgers traded advanced A teams in the offseason.) I actually do get why so many of these things take place during the week but I would love to be able to go to one or two of them. Oh well, that's one of the many beauties of baseball. There is always next season.

Can't believe I'm saying this but I feel sorry for the multimillion dollar man (Young). No one seems to want him…. or, at least his salary. I have a similar quandary in that no one wants to pay me what I'm worth… so I guess it's the opposite… and now, with that bit of therapy worked out here, just now, I don't feel sorry for him anymore. Oh well!
The movement of Young is somewhat mystifying, I am not sure too many teams will want to pay the money for a DH and if he wants an NL team they'd only consider him as an outfielder, so it looks like Texas is stuck with him, at least till July anyway…
I'm with Jeff (at least until he had therapy – lol). I feel sorry for Young, money or not. The guy has done everything the Rangers have asked him to do over the years and he's done it well. He's a really good player and teammate. He deserves to land somewhere and be valued. The Rangers have pushed him around long enough.
Jeff – Well there you go. Therapy is but one of the many services we offer here at TIAVSG.
Peter – Thanks for dropping by my blog and commenting! What you say makes a lot of sense, but then again teams have made stranger and more expensive personnel decision this winter, so who knows.
Jane – I'm definitely not picking on Young. I completely understand why he wants out and I too hope he lands somewhere good…just not with the Angels. I think there are other teams that could really benefit from what he has to offer and do so by trading players whose skills are redundant on the current roster rather than crucial.
I know what you mean about the week events. The Dodger Caravan is next Monday and Tuesday so I asked for vacation days.
There was an event I was going to go (because I LOVE Mike Scioscia from his playing days) and talk about in my blog but I never found the time. The event was a dinner in Monrovia last Saturday for the Boys and Girls Scouts. I was still coughing too much my cold so I could not go. Oh well. I still get emails from the Inland Empire so I knew about that event but it is so far. Hope you can make it to a Spring Training game. I am going to the Dodger Angel home opener at Camelback Ranch, GD.
Emma – It's rough to have to spend your vacation time for weekday events because it gets used up so quickly, but it does sound like you will have great memories. And yeah, Dodgers fan or Angels, you've got to love Scioscia! Sorry you had to miss the event. It sounds like a good one. I would love to go Spring Training this year, but I think next year is more likely when I will have more vacation time for Spring Training, weekday events and whatever else I want it for.
Hi Kristen,
Good stuff here, with the pleasure of discovering your blog. Thank you for commenting on my last post, and yes, I was very pleased to have those parachutes for the metaphor!
Stay well.
Michael – You're welcome. It's always fun to "meet" new people on MBlogs. Thank you for the compliment and for tracking my blog down and commenting!

Thanks to "Argo," discerning film fans can finally stop complaining about movies lacking originality.
Based on incredible true events from more than 30 years ago, "Argo" tells a story that not even Hollywood could dream up -- and director-star Ben Affleck wasn't about to let the opportunity to tell it pass him by.
"When I read the script, I immediately knew that I won the lottery. Yes, we had to cast it and figure out how to do it, but there was already something there that was pretty incredible," Affleck told me in a recent interview. "It was a story that had the elements of a thriller, a comedy and spy intrigue, and it was all true. When do you ever have a chance to make a movie like that?"
New in theaters Friday, "Argo" recounts daring plan to rescue of six Americans amid the hostage crisis during the Iranian Revolution in Tehran in 1980. The group took shelter in the home of the Canadian ambassador Ken Taylor (Victor Garber) until CIA "exfiltration" specialist Tony Mendez (Affleck) concocted an unusual plan to rescue them.
Setting up a fake production company with an Oscar-winning makeup artist (John Goodman) and a prolific producer (Alan Arkin), Mendez gains entry into Iran under the guise of a Canadian producer who's scouting locations for a science fiction movie. If the ruse -- a "Star Wars"-knock off called "Argo" -- doesn't fly, the trapped Americans face almost certain death.
The information about the U.S.' involvement in the "Argo" mission wasn't declassified until 1997 by President Bill Clinton, and it was finally detailed in a chapter of Mendez's 2000 book "The Master of Disguise" and Joshuah Bearman's 2007 Wired Magazine article "The Great Escape."
As far as the movie is concerned, "Argo" is like none other. The plot of the "Wag the Dog" maybe distantly reflects its uniqueness, because in the 1997 political satire, a filmmaker was hired to produce a fake war to be passed off as real to the public.
But then again, the basis of "Wag the Dog" was just a movie plot. "Argo," is the real deal.
"There's no movie plot that's ever been like 'Argo' because it's not a plot," Affleck observed. "Truth is stranger than fiction."
In an odd sort of way, Affleck reflected, the real-life mission behind "Argo" shows how similar the CIA and movie industry really are.
"It's true that both the CIA and Hollywood both traffic in fooling people on some level," Affleck said. "In Hollywood, it's about entertaining people and hopefully communicating something artful to them -- and for the CIA, it's obviously for less fun purposes. It's misinformation, it's propaganda and it's spy craft, and sometimes it's literally war."
Affleck did a fair amount of research at the CIA to prepare for "Argo," and was also thrilled for the production to have access to Mendez in planning out the monumental task of turning the story of the rescue into a film.
"I got to spend a fair amount of time with Tony -- his presence and involvement was the great asset to the movie," Affleck said. "Chris Terrio, even before he came on board with the script, spent a bunch of time with him and incorporated everything he had to say in it, so Tony was aware of it and inspiring it. We also, of course, had Tony's book, the story of this is just a chapter."
For Affleck's part, the actor-director said he grilled Mendez "over and over again" to get personal details on the mission. To top it off, he convinced Mendez to appear in the film.
"He was on the set and we gave him a cameo in the movie -- he walks right by me at Dulles Airport," Affleck beamed. "Plus, he was up in Toronto with us for the premiere of the film. I made sure Tony was with us the whole way."
Even though the story behind "Argo" has remained under the radar for the public for so many years, Affleck, who won a Best Original Screenplay Oscar with his actor buddy, Matt Damon, for "Good Will Hunting," said he absolutely had to get the story right for, ig anyone, the people involved with the mission.
"You have a much bigger responsibility with a true story than with a fictional one, where your only responsibility, as Marlon Brando once said, is not to bore the audience," Affleck said. "I feel with a movie like this, not only is it dealing with people's lives, it has a resonance with events that are unfolding right now that are really tragic."
Affleck, of course, is referencing the events surrounding the Sept. 11 attack on the American Embassy in Benghazi, Libya, where Ambassador J. Christopher Stevens and three other Americans were killed.
While the incident is being investigated as a possible coordinated attack, the deadly incident is also being blamed on inflamed protests that erupted as a result of the controversial film "Innocence of Muslims."
For the purposes of "Argo," Affleck said the key was to reiterate the events in the most thorough way possible.
"We've seen the nature of irresponsible filmmaking and what it can do," Affleck said. "For me, I just wanted to pay attention to details. There's a natural sort of 'Rashomon' dynamic that takes place, where people see the story from their point of view. Sometimes people remember things differently, and if I had to make every detail, it would be a 10-hour miniseries -- so I had to compress things."
Affleck, 40, said he doesn't have any concerns on whether "Argo" will fan any flames in Iran's current tensions with the U.S.
"The movie that caused a lot of damage was outrageous, deliberately provocative, ugly racist stuff," Affleck said in reference to "Innocence of Muslims." "Some people responded to that negatively and it all spiraled out of control."
"For me, "Argo' is factual and I just try to stay as close to the facts as I possibly could, and as close to the spirit of what actually took place," Affleck added. "Everybody, as we know, has their own agendas and if people can use it for propaganda, they'll go ahead and use it. I think you only have to feel bad about it if you've done something irresponsible, and in this case, we certainly haven't."

Out of stock items are built on demand. You buy it, we build it. Ships within 5 days.
In stock orders ship same day if received by 4:00 PM Mountain Standard Time!
Looking for a packing cube type bag to help you get sorted? How about holding your digital camera, iPod, DVD players, headphones, Go Pro camera, loose electronics and doo dads? Maybe you're looking for a small gadget bag to keep your electronic accessories such as power cords, battery chargers, backup drives and the like stored in?
The Lil Roy is it, your favorite new gadget bag! Developed after a gentleman named Roy who wanted a little bag for his tire chains, the Lil Roy is our chameleon hideout bag in the Red Oxx gear lineup. Is it a travel purse? Sure, we've had some ladies carry one out in the field as their purse or airline "personal item". Camera bag? Experience has found that our Lil Roy makes a just-right sized GoPro camera bag or digital video camera bag. Video Game case? It will fit video games as well as a variety of remote controls. Lunch bag? Sure, but do you really want to muck up the inside? Kindle and Mini iPad bag? A Kindle reader will nicely tuck into one of the interior side pockets (the pocket will not snap shut, however).
That's right, hundreds of our satisfied customers have used it for all of the above and many new uses keep cropping up daily. Moms tell us their kids use it to pack their toys and games in for road trips, keeping the amount of "extras" organized and clutter down to a minimum. Some folks have even found the Lil Roy useful as a "Ditty Bag" (also known as a "sailors housewife" - ie: an emergency sewing kit). For more great ideas for the multi-use mini bag of the century, check out some of our Lil Roy product reviews in the reviews tab. Tell us how YOU use your Lil Roy in a product review and if it's pretty cool, you could win a prize!*
A pack-it or packing cube? Wow, now there's a clever use for a Lil Roy. Color co-ordinate your belongings for quick ID and use the grab handles for easy retrieval. As a packing cube, the handles allow you to hang it on the doorknob while at your hotel for easy access. The handles also make it quick to pull out of your packed travel bag. Since you have 12 vibrant colors to choose from, you can "color code" your Lil Roy Packing Cubes. Then it's a snap to find your stuff and since it has handles, it's easy to pull out of your suitcase. You can also check out our line of packing cubes designed to work with Red Oxx Carry-on bags.
The Lil Roy features twin Leno "stiff mesh" pockets on each inside wall with Red Oxx Mil-Spec snaps to keep things contained. Our "stiff mesh" is made to take a beating and not tear or wear out unlike "soft mesh" pocket linings. Stiff mesh features smaller holes and a tighter weave, this makes it "stiff" and hold up better under duress. It's the same quality mesh we use on our Aviator line of Mesh bags.
Inside, the Lil Roy's pockets are sewn down on the bottoms and sides so your stuff stays contained once it's snapped in. Each webbed handle is double cross stitched to the bag and wraps all the way around. Massive #10 YKK heavy-duty nylon self-locking zippers open when you need them to and stay locked when you don't. Our proprietary Fair Trade Monkey Fist Zip Knots provide bag opening and closing assistance so easy you'll wonder how you used zippers without them.
Our customers like to define our gear as "built like a tank". While obviously you're not going to be toting around bags that weigh 50 tons and have three inches of armor plate, still the comparison is valid. For such a small bag, Lil Roys are built tough. Starting with one of the most durable textile materials available, 1000 weight CORDURA® nylon, we use super strong UV resistant thread's stitched into every seam. Each stress point, such as where the handles attach to the bag, is box stitched. Rugged, reliable and tough.
Places where two separate pieces of fabric are stitched together are then bound, that is, we take a long piece of one inch wide nylon webbing and fold it over the edges of the two pieces and stitch them together, this creates a strong seam, or binding, that prevents the pieces from unraveling on the inside of the bag. Our binding material is vertically woven to prevent fraying, peeling or splitting that you may commonly see in competitors gadget bags that brag of "binding" their edges.
The reason Red Oxx uses the largest zipper we can afford, the #10 YKK VISLON® zipper, is that they are easily repairable, even in the field; they will hold their place, that is, they "lock"; they are difficult to penetrate, thereby increasing the security of your belongings; they function smoothly in inclement weather and they can be yanked from a variety of angles without losing teeth or becoming separated.
With so many vibrant colors to choose from, you should have a Lil Roy in every color for storing around the house or garage and still find you'd like to have a few more for the car, perhaps as a first aid kit, portable DVD player bag or to store emergency travel supplies like tire chains, flares and flashlights. Consider buying two or more Lil Roys, you'll always find a use for more than one! Thanks Lil Roy! You are versatility in a mini bag redefined!
Whatever your needs, chances are the Lil Roy, a handy little multi-use mini bag, will do the trick.

Lung cancer is a disease in which cancer cells grow in the lungs.
Lung cancer occurs when cells in the lung divide without control or order. Normally, cells divide in a regulated manner. If cells keep dividing uncontrollably when new cells are not needed, a mass of tissue forms, called a growth or tumor. The term cancer refers to malignant tumors, which can invade nearby tissues and can spread to other parts of the body. A benign tumor does not invade or spread.
Lung cancers that start in the lungs are divided into 2 types:
- Non-small cell —This type generally grows and spreads more slowly. Non-small cell lung cancer accounts for the majority of the lung cancer cases that are diagnosed each year in the United States. The most common types of non-small cell lung cancer are squamous cell cancer and adenocarcinoma.
- Small cell—This type generally grows more quickly. It is more likely to spread to other parts of the body.
Most cases of lung cancer are associated with tobacco use, such as:
- First- or second-hand cigarette smoke
- Pipe or cigar smoking, chewing tobacco
While most cases of lung cancer are due to smoking, a percentage of people with lung cancer have never smoked, nor have they been exposed to secondhand smoke. Lung cancer is the leading cause of death from cancer in the United States.What are the risk factors for lung cancer?What are the symptoms of lung cancer?How is lung cancer diagnosed?What are the treatments for lung cancer?Are there screening tests for lung cancer?How can I reduce my risk of lung cancer?What questions should I ask my doctor?What is it like to live with lung cancer?Where can I get more information about lung cancer?

Cassandra Smith at Sky High Gallery
One of the things that's hard not to miss about artist Cassandra Smith is the way she gravitates toward what are often considered decidedly male things. From animal pelts, nautical rope, axes, deer antlers and taxidermied game, she is at home with the raw materials of man caves everywhere.
But Smith imposes pretty paints, sequins and a design sensibility to transform these found objects into something other than what they were. Through direct application of color and pattern, she creates a tension between natural and organic forms and hard-edged geometries. She alters her materials while honoring the qualities that drew her to them in the first place, she says in her artist statement. »Read Full Blog Post

The Hepatitis C Virus (HCV) NS3/4A serine protease is essential for viral replication and the formation of infectious viral particles, and thus has been considered as one of the most attractive targets for anti-HCV therapy. Due to poor fidelity of viral reverse transcriptase and RNA-dependent RNA polymerase, drug resistant mutations emerge rapidly against protease inhibitors.
The recombinant HCV NS3/4A protease mutant R155K is derived from its wild type (NCBI Accession: CAB46913) with a substitution of Arg155 with Lys. It is a 217 amino acid fusion protein with NS3 protease domain and a fragment of the NS4A protein fused to its N-terminus.

Mitsubishi showed off its all-new Outlander 7-seat SUV Thursday at the Los Angeles Auto Show.
While it's not a revolutionary design, the new car is clean with a slightly techno look to it (especially in the tail lights). Mitsubishi says the new design is slightly more aerodynamic and 200 pounds lighter than the previous model.
Mitsubishi said those changes, and an efficient 2.4-liter four-cylinder engine, will help the new Outlander become one of the most fuel-efficient 7-passenger SUVs on the market.
However, if you want a little more oomph in your drive, the new Outlander GT will come with a 3-liter V-6 engine.
As you would expect, safety is also a concern. The Outlander will be available with things like adaptive cruise control, a forward-collision warning system that will apply the brakes if a crash is unavoidable, and a lane-departure warning system. Standard safety features include things like seven airbags, stability control, traction control and anti-lock brakes.
The new Outlander is expected to go on sale in 2013, while Mitsubishi also plans to launch a plug-in hybrid version in early 2014.

Theater Review: Vermont's Civil War drama retold in words and musicBy Jim LoweJim Lowe / Staff Photo
Schoolteacher Mary Jane Root (Avalon Kann) and Ransom Towle (Aaron Aubrey) share a shy but tender moment before he goes off to fight in the Civil War.
Vermont sent far more than its share of young men to fight in the American Civil War, and its effects were as dire on those left at home as those who fought on the battlefield.
"Ransom," an original play with music that celebrates those unsung heroes in the war and at home, received its professional premiere Friday at City Hall Arts Center by Lost Nation Theater. Running through May 12, it proved a deeply rewarding experience — both entertaining and powerful.
Based on letters sent from home as well as those from the front, "Ransom" dramatizes the effects of the war on the residents of the farming town of West Rochester. Focusing on the story of young Ransom Towle, it authentically illustrates the plight of the townspeople.
When Towle leaves his parents and sister to go to war, a romance develops through letters with the local schoolteacher. Meanwhile, his mother pines for her son, while the sister feels ignored.
This isn't a romanticized tale of heroism. After his son is killed in the fighting, 51-year-old Joshua Whitney is forced to enlist to save his farm. His wife and young children are left in abject fear. How they manage, especially 14-year-old Sydney, the only "man" remaining, is a real tale of heroism.
These stories and others are given a very human side in this adaptation of letters, newspapers and other source materials. Adding to the emotional atmosphere — sometimes softening the blow somewhat of the more tragic moments — is traditional music of the time and original music in that style.
The genesis of "Ransom" began when Rochester historian Joe Schenkman discovered a box containing 31 letters, a diary and a printed narrative, all from Towle, at the Vermont Historical Society. From them and other source material, Schenkman, playwright Dick Robson, professional theater director Ethan Bowen, and an intern from Middlebury College, April Dodd, fashioned a play.
Composers Dorothy Robson and Jake Wildwood arranged traditional music and created songs in the same style. Ten months from the beginning, the first production was presented by the White River Valley Players, Rochester's community theater, directed by Bowen. Kim Bent and Kathleen Keenan, Lost Nation's artistic directors, were so impressed they offered a professional production.
Lost Nation's version, somewhat refined from the original by director Bent, is largely successful. There are some distracting unison speeches and superfluous tableaux that seem more ceremonial than dramatic. Still, the story is convincing, and with a real emotional arch, and quite powerful. And there's plenty of humor to boot.
The large cast is mostly excellent, though only a few of the characters have real dimension. Veteran actor Aaron Aubrey gives Towle a real humanness, both natural and sympathetic. He is matched by Avalon Kann's besotted schoolteacher, Mary Jane, who convincingly reflects the roller coaster of young love in terrible times.
Ira Sargent, though a bit stiff, gave dimension to Ransom's father Rufus, while Eve Passeltiner was convincing in the monochromatic role of the mother. McKenzie Lattimore was wonderfully real as Ransom's frustrated sister Laura.
Robert Nuner gave a powerful performance as the older Joshua Whitney, matched all the way by Karin Shearer as his scared wife Sarah. But it was Chris Killoran who delivered the most emotionally wrenching performance as the son Sydney, overwhelmed by it all. In fact, the kids were amazing — with little or no cuteness (sorry, parents) to mar the story's power,
Musical power was offered by the excellent vocal quartet of Mary McNulty, Carolyn Wesley, Jeff Tolbert and Rick Ames, while Ames lent his charismatic voice to the role of narrator. In fact, there wasn't a weak link in this very large cast.
Music direction by Rip Keller and his band of fine instrumentalists added substantially to the production's authentic flavor. Taryn Noelle's choreography was fluid and natural. Clayborne Coyle's atmospheric set, creatively lit by Wendy Stephens, and authentic costumes by Nancy Smith (with the assistance of the 18th Vermont Regiment of re-enactors), all contributed to the production's heady atmosphere.
Lost Nation Theater's "Ransom" paints a powerful — and entertaining — picture of Vermont during the Civil War.

This is the most basic search. Simply enter your search terms. For example:
black cat adoption
This will search for documents containing the words black, cat and adoption.
To search for a particular phrase, enclose your phrase in quotation marks:
"black cat"
Search will try to find content with those words in the order you enclosed them. It will also find other content that merely contains those words.
Use "wildcards" to search parts of words. Wildcards are special characters you include in your search terms. These include ? and *.
The single character wildcard (?) represents a single character in the search term. This search looks for terms that match with the single character replaced. For example, to search for text or test text or test you can use the following search:
The multiple character wildcard (*) represents any number of characters. For example, to search for test, tests or tester, you can use the search:
You can also use this wildcard in the middle of a term.
Note: You cannot use a * or ? symbol as the first character of a search.
"Fuzzy" searches return results that match your search terms exactly as well as results that are close. For example, if you want to find a word that is similar to foam add a tilde (~) to your search term:
This search will match terms like foamand roams.
new and car are within five words of each other you can enter a search phrase like this:
"new car"~5
Boosting a search term gives it more weight in the results list. For example, if you search for black cat you might get results about black paint and cats but not necessarily black cats. In this case, we want to tell the search engine to weight the word "cat" more heavily:
black cat^4
You can also boost phrases:
"black cat"^4 adopt
You can use any number to boost the term -- the higher the number, the higher the boosting. For example, if the query above still returns too many results, consider increasing the boost value:
"black cat"^6 adopt
With Boolean operators, you can combine terms. The words AND,+, OR, NOT and - are supported. Note, these terms must be in ALL CAPS to distinguish them from normal words.
The OR operator links two terms and finds a matching document if either of the terms exist in a document. Note, the symbol || can be used in place of the word OR. To search for documents that contain either "black cat" or just "cat adoption" use the query:
"black cat" OR "cat adoption"
"black cat" || "cat adoption"
Note: OR is the default way to put search terms together, even if you leave it out. So the following search is equivalent to both of the previous examples:
"black cat" "cat adoption"
The AND operator says that the search should return content in which all of the search terms are present. Note, the symbol && can be used in place of the word AND. To search for documents that contain both "black cat" and just "cat adoption" use a search like this:
"black cat" AND "cat adoption"
or this:
"black cat" && "cat adoption"
You can get fancy by grouping Boolean phrases using parentheses. For example, to find results about different colors of cats, try the following:
(black OR orange OR white) AND cat
The NOT operator excludes documents that contain terms after NOT. You can use the ! symbol in place of the word NOT. To search for documents that contain "black cat" but not "cat adoption" use something like this::
"black cat" NOT "cat adoption"
"black cat" ! "cat adoption"
Note: The NOT operator must be used with multiple terms. For example, the following search will return no results:
NOT "black cat"
You can search for something by looking just in a particular part of the content. Type the name of the content part with a colon after it, then the text you want to search for. You can focus your search on subject, body, tags, or attachmentsText. Here's an example that searches just for the word "cat" in the subject (title) of content:
There are a few special characters that you can't include in a search phrase without special treatment. That's because these are part of the query syntax. However, you can use a special "escape" character to tell the search engine to treat the special character like any other.
The current list special characters includes:
+ - && || ! ( ) { } [ ] ^ " ~ * ? \
To escape these characters use the \ before the character. For example, to search for (1+1)-2, which has the special characters (, ),+, and :, use the query:

Houston Rockets (43-34)
The league's highest scoring team needs to be to stay competitive. Giving up 132 points in a loss to the Nuggets in its first game without Gallinari is not a good sign. (Photo by Garrett W. Ellwood/NBAE via Getty Images)

Derrick Rose is keeping the option open that he will return. But even the return of Joakim Noah from an eight-game absence due to plantar fasciitis did not prevent a loss to a lottery-bound Pistons team. (Photo by Dan Lippitt/NBAE via Getty Images)
Atlanta Hawks (41-33)
The Hawks have lost three consecutive games and right now sit as the No. 6 seed. With the Pacers as the current No. 3 seed, the match-up surely would be the least interesting series in the East. (Photo by Scott Cunningham/NBAE via Getty Images)

Minnesota Timberwolves (29-47)

Divers in Hawaii recently lent a hand to a dolphin in need.
A video taken by Ocean Wings Hawaii shows a bottlenose dolphin approach a diver who notices his fin is entangled in fishing line.
The dolphin waits as the diver uses a knife to cut away at the line and free him.
The group was on a night dive to view manta rays off the coast of Kona, Hawaii.
They said they've helped free manta rays from entanglement before and that the dolphin showed interest in getting some help for himself.

Milwaukee playwright brings 'Great Expectations' into focus
Chicago — Charles Dickens is the most theatrical of the great novelists, but unless one adapts a novella like "A Christmas Carol" — or has the luxury of eight-plus hours, as in the acclaimed adaptation of "Nicholas Nickleby" — the length of his novels makes them difficult to stage.
I was therefore intrigued to see how Milwaukee's Gale Childs Daly had tackled the challenge of adapting "Great Expectations," which is not only one of Dickens' best novels, but also among the shortest. It's being staged by Chicago's Strawdog Theatre Company, a 70-seat storefront theater with a history of rethinking classic texts. »Read Full Article

WTMJ reporter ordered to appear for Alabama murder trial
A Milwaukee County judge on Tuesday ordered a local TV reporter to attend a murder trial next month in Alabama, where prosecutors say the reporter is a material witness.
Cody Holyoke, of WTMJ-TV (Channel 4) represented himself at a brief hearing before Circuit Judge David Borowski. Borowski said such requests from out-of-state courts are rare, and so he would presume it was "rather serious" case and request. He and Holyoke agreed that whether Holyoke may be able to invoke Alabama's reporter's shield law is an issue for the courts there. »Read Full Blog Post(8)

Fred Stonehouse returns to stomping grounds
No one talks about art the way Fred Stonehouse talks about art. Like some of his paintings, there is an element of the circus sideshow in the way presents his ideas, surreal entertainments to be relished.
His paintings are filled with visual booty. From the bleeding hosts and weeping Madonnas of his Catholic upbringing to the antique sideshow banners of state fairs, from the Day of the Dead artworks he collects and covets to the bizarre hybrid beings of beloved folk tales, Stonehouse cribs liberally from the history of art, popular culture, a rich array of visual sources and his own life experiences. »Read Full Blog Post

Jim DeVita paints portrait of Rothko in Forward Theater's 'Red'
Madison — Before becoming one of the last century's great artists, Mark Rothko thought hard about a career as an actor, and he habitually referred to his pictures as "dramas." In his Tony-winning "Red," John Logan brings that drama on stage.
Madison's Forward Theater has now brought "Red" to Wisconsin, where it opened Friday night under Laura Gordon's direction, in an 85-minute, intermission-free production featuring Jim DeVita as Rothko and Nate Burger as Ken, Rothko's young, fictionalized assistant. »Read Full Article(1)

A Honolulu high school was locked down after reports of shots fired, according to the Star-Advertiser.
School officials sent a text to parents that said, "The situation at Roosevelt (High School) is under control," KITV reported.
The station also reported that a 17-year-old boy was shot in the wrist. According to KITV, the boy was a runaway and officers had come to take him into custody.
Police told KITV that the teen attacked one of the officers with a kitchen knife, leaving his torso with a minor cut. Two other officers had minor injuries from punches, police said.
One of the officers then fired two shots, hitting the boy once in the wrist, KITV reported.
The officer who fired the shots will be placed on three days administrative leave while the investigation is ongoing, the station said.

Initiative envisions Montpelier as film mecca
MONTPELIER Organizers of a proposed media literacy program are pursuing a $150,000 grant in hopes of helping Montpelier become known as a capital for film and the arts.
The city applied last month for a National Endowment for the Arts Our Town grant to help launch outreach this year for community members to engage with films. The program could allow participants to create films, have discussions with filmmakers, and bring existing resources together, such as Lost Nation Theater and local music groups like the Montpelier Chamber Orchestra.
This is the nexus. This can connect all of the arts organizations together, said Terry Youk, the owner of the Savoy Theater, on Wednesday.
The Vermont College of Fine Arts has agreed to a match worth $150,000 through facility enhancements such as a visual arts studio, new technology like digital conferencing and programming staff.
Studio kits could also allow participants to have access to a camera and mobile lighting and audio equipment, said the colleges senior vice president, Bill Kaplan, on Wednesday.
Activities would be intended to show how people can process various media helping them understand, for instance, how a soundtrack can build tension or drama.
After watching a clip or film at the Savoy, participants could split into multiple groups. One group could analyze how the soundtrack influences ones mood, while another group could evaluate the issues presented, said Montpelier Community Development Specialist Kevin Casey. Other teaching techniques could include having Lost Nation Theater performers do a skit three different ways or having participants change the type of music in a movie clip.
The more you engage students in critical thought in the media they consume, their media literacy increases across the board, Casey said.
Youk said hes seeking to model the program on a nonprofit in Pleasantville, N.Y., near New York City, called the Jacob Burns Film Center and Media Arts Lab. The center and lab encompass dozens of filmmaking and cinema studies classes for children, teenagers and adults throughout the week, including during the day, evening or on the weekend, according to its website.
Youk said he plans to launch a media literacy education program regardless of whether the funding is received. The city and Vermont College of Fine Arts tried to obtain NEA funding for the project last year, Kaplan said.
The citys planning and community development director, Gwendolyn Hallsmith, said the city could hear back around May but might not get an answer until September.
The initiative seeks to have 60 eighth-graders, 75 11th-graders and 20 to 40 senior citizens involved by the end of the first year of the program, which could begin next winter. Hallsmith said other adults could also become involved.
