1996 Mazda Millenia 4dr Sedan
I bought my millenia used, with just under 100k miles on it. I have had it for almost 10 years and I can honestly say it is the best car I have ever owned, and the one I have loved most. I have only had to replace the timing belt/water pump and a few hoses and that is it. this car is So fun to drive and I have driven it hard, in the city daily, with a lot of stop and go. It developed a oil leak a few days ago, and I drove it anyway, stupidly, but I had no choice and it ran dry and caused severe damage to the radiator and hoses. it will not be worth it to fix, as I cant be assured the engine hasn't suffered damage as well. I am so sad to let this car go.
handling, reliability, comfort, SO fun to drive!
none, all around great car.
1996 Mazda Millenia S 4dr Sedan
This is a great car to drive. Very quiet Bose sound and supercharged. Just hope you don't have to fix it. Waterpump and timing belt cost 1800.00 vacuum leaks $200. Used tensioner for AC Belt 175.00 Nice to drive just be prepared to crack that wallet open when it needs fixing
1996 Mazda Millenia L 4dr Sedan
We've had our car for a few years now, formerly the company car, but it is fantastic, no major engine issues or troubles, TONS of mileage and no hint that it's likely to die anytime soon.
Seat warmers, outstanding miles to the engine with no issues. Mazda retrofitted two LATCH childseat holders free.
More leg room in the back seat.
I wouldn't recommend buying this car
used. The maintenance is very expensive
and costly. Definitely buy new so
there's a warranty.
The sunroof and the rear armrest.
I bought this car with 76k miles from
a private auction so had no knowledge
of previous owner. Right after I had
to Redo the transmission and timing
belt. Since then, this car is awesome.
I nickname it "Old Faithful" because
it has been very reliable for my
family and is a awesome car to drive
that still looks great. I love this
Great smooth yet sporty drive,
excellent brakes, interior amenities,
and exterior design.
More leg room in front, and back.
Almost to tight for my baby's car seat
at times unless my wife scoots forward.

Supposedly, you are some sort of constitutional scholar. At the very least, you can read, you can write, and despite being merely some sort of guest lecturer at the University of Chicago Law School, you once famously referred to yourself as a "Constitutional Law professor."
Ringing a bell so far, Mr. President? Great.
My Juris Doctor is from the Rutgers School of Law in Camden, New Jersey, and while Rutgers-Camden is hardly Harvard Law School, within the first three days of Constitutional Law class those who did not already know of and understand Marbury v. Madison–perhaps the single most important decision in the history of the United States Supreme Court–were nonetheless introduced to it ad nauseum.
In Marbury, the United States Supreme Court held that federal courts across our nation not only have the authority, but also the duty, to review the constitutionality of acts of Congress–including statutes and treaties–and to designate as void those acts of Congress which countermand the United States Constitution. The term you're searching for between those ears of yours, Mr. President, is "judicial review." And, while it has been nearly two years since I opened up a Constitutional Law book and can now debate divorce and family law in South Carolina better than I can the Constitution, I recall enough from law school and bar exam study to know that the doctrine of "judicial review" is now settled law.
In other words, since the landmark Marbury decision came down in 1803 from the very Court you belittle and smear as "unelected" and "activist," and because of the doctrine of "judicial review" set forth in that holding, federal courts in the United States of America have the power–and duty–to review laws passed by Congress, decide whether or not those laws either comport with our Constitution or countermand it, and either uphold those laws that pass constitutional muster or declare void those laws that do not.
Not a difficult concept, Mr. President. Not a difficult concept for a first-year law student at Rutgers-Camden, and certainly not a difficult concept for a Harvard Law grad who lectured on Constitutional Law at University of Chicago Law School and later went on to deceive a nation into crowning him president of the United States. This ain't race-baiting or class warfare, Mr. President, but Marbury and judicial review should nonetheless certainly be in your wheelhouse.
So, what's the problem? Earlier today, according to Fox News and other sources, this apparently happened:
President Obama, employing his strongest language to date on the Supreme Court review of the federal health care overhaul, cautioned the court Monday against overturning the law — while repeatedly saying he's "confident" it will be upheld.
The president spoke at length about the case at a joint press conference with the leaders of Mexico and Canada. The president, adopting what he described as the language of conservatives who fret about judicial activism, questioned how an "unelected group of people" could overturn a law approved by Congress.
"I'm confident that the Supreme Court will not take what would be an unprecedented, extraordinary step of overturning a law that was passed by a strong majority of a democratically elected Congress," Obama said.
Those statements are so indicative of ignorance of not only Constitutional Law but also basic civics that I don't even know where to begin.
First, even a second-grader understands that the the United States Government is split into three separate branches in order to insulate one from another and provide checks and balances for each. Of course, it is easy to comprehend how a totalitarian like yourself would have trouble distinguishing the lines between the various branches; after all, you have an established penchant for making illegitimate recess appointments and facilitating regulatory and other extra-legislative mechanisms designed to eschew and usurp the traditional role of the Legislative Branch — it should therefore come as no surprise that you are utterly incapable of understanding why Justices of the United States Supreme Court are indeed unelected.
The Justices of the United States Supreme Court are unelected, Mr. President, to insulate and protect them from the influence and derision of lawmakers and chief executives like you.
Second, that you would preemptively describe as "unprecedented" and "extraordinary" the prospective decision by the Supreme Court that your signature piece of legislation is unconstitutional and therefore void shows that your ignorance is surpassed only by your myopic inability to see past your political ideology and progressive goals. According to the Congressional Research Service's The Constitution of the United States, Analysis and Interpretation (the 2008 supplement, pages 163-164, in case you're looking), as of 2010 the United States Supreme Court has declared unconstitutional and therefore void a whopping 163 acts of Congress. You do know what "unprecedented" means, right? The Supreme Court overturning ObamaCare would hardly be "unprecedented" — perhaps it could be "unprecedented, unless you count those previous 163 precedents." Of course, you and your administration has never been particularly good at counting or math.
Want to know what is "unprecedented," Mr. President? Congress forcing free Americans into private contracts and penalizing those who disobey. That's unprecedented. Want to know what else is "unprecedented," Mr. President? A sitting president of the United States calling out the Justices of the United States Supreme Court during a State of the Union address. That, too, is unprecedented; I can only pray to God that, come Election Day, you have been enjoined from having the chance to do so again.
At this point, Mr. President, just give up. Please. Every time you denigrate the Court and its Justices, who have more legal knowledge in their smallest toenail than you have in your entire body, you look more and more like the dullard that you apparently truly are. No wonder you don't want to release your school transcripts — any undergraduate student who fails to understand the most basic concept of Separation of Powers and any law student that fails to understand the settled doctrine of judicial review probably did not have marks worthy of tacking on the refrigerator door.
I understand that, ideologically, your signature piece of health care legislation is the perfect progressive fix. I understand how it works. I understand how it slowly but surely interferes with insurers' ability to assess risk and thus slowly but surely facilitates an increase in premium costs, therefore driving more and more people to clamor for a government fix. It's a brilliant political maneuver.
But it's also unconstitutional. In other words, it tramples upon the ideas enshrined in that old document that you swore an oath to uphold and defend.
And when the Justices of the United States Supreme Court tell you as much mere weeks before November's election, it will not be because they are "unelected," nor will it be because they somehow don't understand the legislation. The law simply runs afoul and improperly expands the scope of the Commerce Clause of the United States Constitution, and no amount of "strong majority of a democratically elected Congress" will change that.
Wave the white flag, Mr. President. Or, preferably, you can continue to make a fool of yourself. In my Trial Advocacy class at Rutgers-Camden, after all, we were taught how do deal with opposing counsel who was floundering in front of a judge or jury: sit tight, smile, and just let the other side self-destruct.
Now, Rutgers-Camden is a fine school, but it sure ain't Harvard. Nevertheless, I'm the one who is sitting tight and smiling.
Good luck with your re-election.

Karl Jenkins: new Adiemus Colores recording on DG(June 2013)
Adiemus Colores, Karl Jenkins's first recording on the Deutsche Grammophon label, sees him exploring the vibrancy and colour of Latin American music.
Karl Jenkins's Adiemus Colores, released on 8 July, is his first recording under his new contract with Deutsche Grammophon (DG 0289 479 1067 1). The new CD is now available on sale from all good music shops including The Shop at Boosey.com.
> Buy the Adiemus Colores CD
Adiemus Colores marks Karl Jenkins's return after ten years to the series that helped make his name – Adiemus: Songs of Sanctuary has sold over 1.5 million albums worldwide. The new disc includes the composer's first collaborations with tenor Rolando Villazón and classical guitarist Milos Karadaglic and shows Jenkins seeking inspiration from the sights, sounds, colours and rhythms of Latin American music:
"I have always been intrigued by the traditional music of Latin America. I initially came to its exotic and flamboyant world via recordings of Afro-Cuban jazz. Later I came to love the music of Antônio Carlos Jobim from Brazil and also Ástor Piazzolla from Argentina. When performing with jazz fusion band Nucleus, we shared the stage with Sérgio Mendes and Brasil '66 at the Royal Festival Hall in London, and I wrote some arrangements for Gilberto Gil when he first came to the UK. Later I produced and orchestrated some music by the Argentinian classical composer Carlos Guastavino for Dame Kiri Te Kanawa.
"Another South American spark that helped kindle the flame that became Adiemus Colores is the fascination that the people of Wales, myself included, have with the romance of Patagonia – that area occupying the southernmost tip of Argentina where there is a Welsh-speaking settlement, dating from 1865. In fact the Welsh word for this area, Y Wladfa, translates as 'The Colony'. Adiemus Colores is music of fantasy which happily embraces elements of South American culture."
As with the original Adiemus, Jenkins combines classical principles with the flavours of world and ethnic music supported by lively percussion. His choral writing does not employ texts or narrative, but adopts "an invented language with no meaning, a little like scat singing in jazz but more organised". Each movement is named in Spanish after a colour and explores the mood each evokes for the composer, embracing Brazilian samba, Argentinian tango and Spanish bolero.
Adiemus Colores is scored for choir and ensemble with soloists, with a complete duration of 75 minutes, and is now available for performance by choral groups. A vocal score is being published on sale in the late summer.
> Listen to audio clips from Adiemus Colores.
Future Jenkins plans include a new 40-minute choral Mass based on themes of healing and international performances of The Armed Man in 2014 to commemorate the centenary of the outbreak of World War I.

When I ran out of those I picked up some More Milk Plus and have been taking 2 x 3 a day as directed on bottle (based on my weight). I'm wondering why MMP is so few a day? Is it really as effective as separate supplements? I'm not sure that it has impacted my supply for better or worse - we are still struggling with weight gain but I don't know it's a supply issue or not. However, I'm soon out of MMP and am wondering if I should buy more or get the separate supplements again (or just buy whatever is cheaper?!)?

New building raises Silver Spring's urban design standard
Former Washington Post architecture critic Benjamin Forgey once said, "there are so many bad buildings in Silver Spring, it's a hard place to do good." Yet some architects and developers are trying to do better here.
Last month, ground was broken on Eleven55 Ripley, a new residential complex in the Ripley District, located west of Georgia Avenue in downtown Silver Spring. With a mix of housing and shops, buildings that engage the street, and thoughtfully-designed public space, it makes an effort to enhance the surrounding neighborhood.
Eleven55 was designed by Georgetown-based architects Shalom Baranes and is being built by national apartment developer Home Properties, who have also teamed up to redevelop the Falkland Chase apartments at East-West Highway and 16th Street. It will have 385 apartments and townhomes, including 49 subsidized units for low-income families as required by law, and 5,500 square feet of ground-floor retail space, about the size of a Red Lobster.
The residential component comes in three parts:
A 20-story apartment tower with studio, one-bedroom, and two-bedroom units. Home Properties claims it will be the tallest building in Silver Spring, but at 200 feet tall, it's actually just the tallest apartment tower, because there are four taller office buildings in downtown Silver Spring. The tallest building in Montgomery County, meanwhile, will be this 300 foot tall apartment tower in White Flint.
Not everyone will love the sleek, modern design, though one of the commenters on the Just Up the Pike Facebook page called it a "watered-down" version of The Standard Hotel in New York, which is encouraging.
The long strip windows are an interesting break from the typical window-balcony-window rhythm of many residential buildings. It's not totally clear from these images what materials will be used on the building's exterior, but it looks comparable to the metal cladding used on Cityline, a building Shalom Baranes designed in Tenleytown.
At the tower's base will be 7 row houses with rooftop decks. This is a variation of the "Vancouver point tower," which is basically an apartment tower with townhouses on the bottom. It kills two birds with one stone, providing the density of a high-rise building above while creating a low-rise, human-scaled experience at the street level.
Not only does this put people on the sidewalks, but it gives them something interesting to look at, not just driveways like some other downtown Silver Spring buildings.
A 5-story "loft-style" building with apartments and retail space. The Planning Department says this building will be about 80 feet high, suggesting that there will be some nice, tall ceilings inside. I'm not sure if storefront retail would be successful here, as it's currently a little off the beaten path. Improving the site's connections to the surrounding area will be important.
That's why the project also includes an extension of Dixon Avenue, which currently ends a block north at Bonifant Street. Home Properties will build the portion of the new street that passes through their site. Eventually, Dixon Avenue will continue south to Silver Spring Avenue.
Along with another new street connecting Ripley and Bonifant, Dixon Avenue will connect Eleven55 to the Metro and the rest of downtown Silver Spring. This will require tearing out part of the massive public parking garage on Bonifant or removing it completely, which may not happen for a long time.
Finally, the developer will build a quarter-acre pocket park at the with public art commemorating the life and works of environmentalist Rachel Carson, who wrote the book Silent Spring from her house in nearby White Oak.
Many of downtown Silver Spring's pocket parks are poorly designed and seldom used, but this one looks pretty good. For starters, placing it at the end of the block allows the new buildings to cozy up to the sidewalk, exactly as buildings in urban neighborhoods are supposed to do.
It's hard to imagine it today, but one day this park will be surrounded by a new Silver Spring Transit Center, several new buildings, and a partially elevated Purple Line. It'll be a valuable green oasis in the midst of the city, ensuring that people will want to use it.
Eleven55 isn't the only cool new building going up in the Ripley District. The Solaire apartments, being built across the street, will have live-work apartments that allow residents to run small businesses from home. At Ripley and Georgia Avenue is the new headquarters of translation company ALC, which placed a striking modern addition above a 1920's-era shop building.
The Ripley District may be a "made-up" neighborhood, but it's shaping up to be a pretty nice place. It's encouraging to see that architects and developers alike are beginning to embrace good urbanism, rather than settling for suburban-style buildings with huge driveways, as was once proposed for this site. Hopefully, Eleven55 will set the standard for new construction in downtown Silver Spring.
All neighborhoods are made up. Anyone who uses that term in the DC area isn't really thinking about where they are.
The market for such large apartments isn't nearly as strong as you think.
I wonder if thats not an issue with the "we need OLD buildings" disequilibrium effect? IE folks who can afford a NEW 3br apt in TOD can also afford an older TH in TOD, or a newish TH not too far away (and can afford high auto ownership) while those who really need affordable 3BRs, really need them to be in older buildings to be affordable enough to trump the appeal of older THs.
by AWalkerInTheCity on Jan 31, 2012 11:08 am • link • report
There's also the issue of filtering. I know in DC at least many of the larger housing units are taken up by people who are renting a share or just a room - a group house, essentially. While there's a certain appeal to this in many cases, I'd also imagine that many of those people would also be willing to rent a 1 or 2 bedroom apartment if there were more supply available.
So, it's entirely plausible that building a tower with many 1 and 2 bedroom units will reduce some market pressure on existing 3 bedroom rowhouse/townhome type units.

It's nice to see these new buildings in Silver Spring are learning lessons from other cities in terms of urban design. But, I was surprised to see so much glass on the ground floor row houses. It gives them a storefront feel, but maybe that is the longer term expectation for the space?
@jag, I've known many happy apartment livers in D.C. who were priced out of D.C. when they needed a 3rd bedroom for family. They could have afforded and enjoyed living an a SS apartment, but the stock is mediocre and limited. The people I know were probably at the higher end of middle income (70-80th percentile incomes?), but could afford the prices & valued living in a walkable area.
@Awalker, Just because someone can afford a car doesn't mean they want to use it every day. There is a premium to be within walking distance of shops and metro and that premium isn't being paid by people who can't afford a car.
Though my last post about housing focused on the need for smaller units, I wonder what the demand for larger apartments would be. I grew up in an apartment building in DTSS and I went to school with lots of kids who did the same, albeit in 1 and 2-bedroom apartments. And when I worked in Rockville Town Square, I knew a family who lived in one of the four-bedroom "penthouse" apartments above the shops.
I think the demand exists, both from families and group shares, but only because apartments are perceived as the best way to get into a close-in neighborhood. When THs and SFs exist in those areas (like just outside DTSS), those people can just live in one of those and have the same amenities. As the area builds out, I imagine there will be a greater need for large apartments.
I also like the townhouses at the Odyssey in Arlington, especially since you can see kids playing on a stoop in the Google Street View, though I'm curious: why do you think they're better than the ones proposed at Eleven55?
@Neil Flanagan
Noted. Brick could look pretty cool, too, and less chance of the "death ray effect."
In 2010, I wrote about UniTher's HQ at Spring and Cameron, though I haven't written about the newest phase (on the north side of Cameron, still under construction) or the Cameron, the new apartment building next door. I really like UniTher, but I don't care for the Cameron. The "pocket park" required by the county is just a big driveway and is shaded by the building most of the day, making it useless. There are storefronts, which is good, but they'll be hard to fill 'cause there's so little other retail nearby. It's an okay building, but we could've done much better.
I would have to see better detail on the Eleven55 TH's but to me they seem flat, and I don't like the recessed entry doors so much. Upon looking at the Odyssey link, its not as nice as my memory of it. A little more yard depth, and some more deeply articulated window bays would make a difference, but overall I think its a decent transition to a residential street like that. My memory was also wrong because I thought the window bays had more variation in color.
I worked near the Odyssey during the construction and was always watching it. I also took an NBM construction tour at the time. It was a challenging site, with a steep grade, odd lot shape, and the zoning around it was different in all directions. The curtain wall on the tower is unique for a residential project, and the north facing views, especially from the rooftop pool area, are spectacular. However given the time and market when it was built, I would probably not want to be an owner there now because I imagine it may not be a good investment for awhile.
Bears minimal resemblance to what got built.
You're right: the renderings of the Portico look better than it does as an actual building, but that's not saying much: other than having balconies and some larger windows, the rendering still shows a big, gray slab with nothing to activate the street.
While we don't know what Eleven55 will look like when completed, I feel a little better about it. They've made the right moves to start - shopfronts and front doors on the street, buildings at the lot line - which puts it head and shoulders over so many other buildings in DTSS, existing or imagined.
PS - only some of comment is sarcastic.
Really looking forward to seeing this new addition to the Silver Spring skyline. I love downtown SS. There's far more culture and diversity here than anywhere else in Montgomery County, more so than even anywhere else in the Balt-Wash Metro Area outside of DC and Baltimore proper. Hopefully the White Flint Sector redevelopment can take some cues, and not turn into another Bethesda (a soulless, urban playground for the wealthy), but it probably will.
It really pisses me off that the contractor screwed up the Transit Center indefinitely delaying the opening. The design is actually uglier than I thought it would be, it's definitely a necessity. It's like Silver Spring's own mini version of the 42nd St Port Authority Terminal. Now we need to make sure the two towers proposed to adjoin it will actually be built.

I'm Roel Blesgraaf, Public Affairs officer WASH with Simavi in the Netherlands. To me the different uses of corporates, companies and private sector adds to the confusion.

After an admittedly quick read of the two documents you posted I do have some questions and remarks though. 1) The focus seems to be entirely on the private sector. What role does the TBC se […]

Audio Capturing
Both devices have the same and very small offset; the GO-0804A extracted audio tracks without errors and faster than the junior model did (which made 223 errors). Both drives can perform an on-the-fly copy of audio data at up to 16x speed, but the GO-0804A is again errorless, while the junior model has problems almost at all speeds, save for 8x and 10x. The drives can read the sub-channel data, and the GO-0804A can also read the Lead-In/Out areas. According to EAC, the GO-0404 cannot return C2 errors, but we'll see below that it can.
The accuracy of C2 error returns will be examined in the next test along with reading of a bad Audio CD. The GO-0804A comes first.
As you see, the quality of reading the damaged disc is rather low, 58.7 points out of 100 possible, with 20 skips. That's why the C2 Accuracy parameter is so low – 57.6% only. It would be higher if the read quality was better and there were no skips. Now, let's see what we have with the junior model.
This model can really return C2 errors and does it with 100% accuracy. It has an excellent read quality with the bad Audio CD – 82.1 points with zero skips.

"The New" Fiio X3 with USB DAC - Page 3
Gear mentioned in this thread:
The 2.05 firmware and drivers for Windows have just appeared on the fiio download page at http://fiio.com.cn/support/download.aspx so we are good to go!
Just downloading now....
Works a treat for me with both Win XP and Windows 7 with JRiver MediaCenter.
The only thing that took me a while to figure out was that the X3 had to be set into 'DAC mode' in the USB settings before the installer software for the driver would detect the player.
Once that was set it installed and played 24/96 files with no problems.
Initial reaction with my W4r's is that sound quality is on a par with the player in normal mode but that is what I would have expected.
Will continue to play around and will report back.
So first, we need to update firmware on X3 than install USB DAC driver on PC?
That's right.
1. Install the new firmware the usual way (simultaneous pressing of menu and OK buttons while turned off)
2. Wait for the completion message then power back on.
3. Go into system settings and change the USB mode to DAC.
4. Run the driver setup tool.
5. Then connect the X3 at the point where the install tool asks.
6. The player goes into DAC mode and displays the bit rate/depth on the screen
Edited by reespa - 10/24/13 at 7:59am
can you share the FW2.05 somewhere? it's barely downloading.
Sorry LightBlue at work and have no access to upload facilities.
I noticed the site has slowed down as I saw there was a DAC user manual and it took me 5 minutes to get the 2Mb file.
no problem :) i'll have it in one hour :D

If anyone are running Windows 8 or 8.1 remember to turn off Driver signature requirement before installing the USB drivers.
I downloaded the file on my mac and after copying to x3 it didnt see the file,tried it with my old windows and it worked no problem!Now i can take Audirvana everywhere i go!
I installed the firmware and the driver but the music is coming out of my pc speakers, not the X3 headphone jack. Whats going on?

AD: Marquette trying to move quickly for new coachBy GENARO C. ARMAS , Associated Press
Mar. 24, 2014 9:31 PM ET
MADISON, Wis. (AP) — Marquette's interim athletic director says the school is trying to move as quickly as possible to hire a replacement for Buzz Williams.

Austin in the first half of a second-round game in the NCAA college basketball tournament in San Diego. Texas athletic director Steve Patterson is scheduled to travel Thursday, April 2, 2015, to meet with Virginia Commonwealth coach Shaka Smart to make an offer to coach the Longhorns, a person with knowledge of the trip told The Associated Press. Texas hopes to introduce Smart as its new coach as early as Friday, according to the person who requested anonymity because the talks with Smart are considered private. (AP Photo/Lenny Ignelzi, File)

Bill Cords told The Associated Press in a phone interview Monday that the level of interest to replace Williams has been "very rewarding."
Williams was formally introduced Monday as the head coach at Virginia Tech. He left Marquette after six seasons.
Cords, as expected, is not revealing who is on his wish list of candidates and any information about interviews.
"We're trying to move as quickly as we can, as effectively and efficiently as we can," Cords said. "We're going to get the best guy."
VCU coach Shaka Smart, an annual name on the coaching rumor circuit, might be a possible candidate. Smart is a native of Madison, which is also home the Wisconsin Badgers; Marquette is located about 80 miles away in Milwaukee.
VCU athletic director Ed McLaughlin told The Associated Press on Monday night that Smart had promised to let him know if any schools reached out to him, and said he had not heard from Smart about being contacted. McLaughlin said no schools have sought his permission to speak with Smart.
Former UCLA and Pitt coach Ben Howland has also reportedly expressed interest in the position.
Williams was 139-69 in six years at Marquette, including a trip to the NCAA regional finals just a year ago. He left on a disappointing note after the team finished 17-15 and had an eight-year run to the NCAA tournament snapped.
The Golden Eagles were the preseason pick to win a Big East reconfigured into a basketball-only league this season, but ended up sixth in the 10-team conference. Williams had expressed frustration a couple times after home games in adjusting to the new time commitments and travel schedules.
Still, the move from a program that prides itself on a rich basketball tradition to the last-place team in the ACC and a school where football is the most popular sport caught some Marquette fans by surprise.
"When you have a good coach, there are other people that want to try to get him" Cords said. "It's kind of an annual ritual you go through."
Asked why he thought Williams left, Cords said he appreciated Williams having raised the level of the program, but otherwise deferred to his former coach.
The departure clouded an already uncertain period given Marquette is also operating with an interim president. Cords, who previously served as athletic director from 1987-2007, said he is staying on through next spring.
"Those things are factors, but at the same time, I think that the program speaks for itself," he said, adding later that the school was going to get "really good leadership in terms of a president here hopefully soon."
Marquette won the 1977 national title under coach Al McGuire, and boasts Dwayne Wade, Doc Rivers and Maurice Lucas among prominent former players who have made it to the NBA.
"We feel things are moving well ... and we believe we have a great program," Cords said. "And there's a level of interest that is very rewarding."

Fayette home prices in deep slump
The average sales price of a home sold this year in Fayette County is slightly less than $230,000. If that's a surprise, read on.
There's a reason the Fayette County tax digest is falling in value. Information from the Georgia Multiple Listing Service shows that the number of sales of single-family homes in Fayette has been falling sharply since 2007 along with the average list price and the average sale price.
Here's a summary:
• Average sales price for all Fayette homes sold has dropped 27 percent — $84,875 — since 2007, four years ago when the Great Recession began.
• Sales price drops are stark: With year-to-year decreases of 5 percent, 10 percent, 4 percent and 10 percent from 2007 to this year respectively, the average closing price of a home sold in Fayette has gone from $314,342 four years ago to a mid-August, 2011, level of $229,468.
• During that same period, average listing prices declined 21.5 percent from a starting point of $388,506 in 2007 to a current (mid-August) low of $304,747.
• One out of every four homes changing hands this year sold for under $100,000.
• The actual number of homes sold this year is on track to be about half the number sold just four years ago, along with dramatically lower prices.
• Half of all Fayette homes put on the market don't sell before the listing contract with the real estate broker expires.
The information relating to home sales and prices was sourced from the Georgia Multiple Listing Service and provided by Realtor Leslie Edwards.
Those data show that there were 1,537 homes sold in Fayette County in 2007. Those homes carried an average list price of $388,506 and an average sale price of $314,342, a difference of $74,164, or 19 percent under list.
By mid-August of this year, things had changed significantly, with 577 homes sold and carrying an average list price of $304,747 and an average sale price of $229,468. That's a difference of $75,279, or nearly 25 percent.
Of the 577 homes sold so far in 2011, 152 sold for under $100,000 and carried an average sales price of $69,674. Those sales were the result of either foreclosures or short sales.
The downward trend was evident beginning in 2008. The 1,537 homes sold in 2007 decreased to 1,081 home sales in 2008 followed by 1,043 in 2009, 970 in 2010 and 577 by mid-August this year.
The average list and sale prices also saw a similar decline.
The average list price of $388,506 in 2008 dropped slightly to $380,569 in 2008 and to $363,083 in 2009. In 2010 the average list price fell to $346,118 and, to date this year, carries a price of $304,747.
Average sale prices showed that the $314,342 level in 2007 dropped to $297,239 in 2008 and to $266,228 in 2009. In 2010 the average sale price decreased to $255,183 and dropped to $229,468 in 2011.
Also of note was the percentage of homes where the sales contract expired without a sale. That figure over the past several years averages approximately 50 percent.

Last week it was announced that Sony would be moving forward with a sequel to 2007′s Ghost Rider, and the story would be based on a script that David S. Goyer wrote 2 years ago. With that in mind, the people over at Collider spoke to both Goyer and Brannon Braga and discussed the status of the upcoming film.
The first thing that caught my eye from the interview was the fact that the script for the film will be a lot older than we thought.
"I wrote a script for that about 9 years ago. Sony decided and the producers that they wanted to make that as the sequel script. In this case I'm coming on as a producer, and we're basically just doing a polish. There's not as much work involved."
He intended for the script to be directed by Stephen Norrington years ago before Mark Steven Johnson came on board to direct the first film. He assures us that even though the script is old, it only needs a few changes here and there in terms of content. The original would be considered a "hard R" and Sony wants it to be PG-13, so he'll have to make the necessary adjustments.
"It was a Blade-type film. Now they want it to be PG-13. But… The Dark Knight has come out and I like to say that it was skirting the bleeding edge of PG-13, so people's concepts of what a PG-13 movie could be [have changed]."
The first Ghost Rider was mediocre at best, so there's definitely room for improvement. The question is does anyone care enough to go see another one? The comic has a die hard cult fan base, but they might have gotten scorned the first time around and decide not to return.
Do you plan on seeing the Ghost Rider sequel?

My five week old and I got off to a bad start with breastfeeding...the lc in the hospital told me that i didn't have very good breasts, and that breastfeeding would be iffy. Well, my milk did come in, and she was feeding, but we were supplementing her (partly because the nurse in the hospital recommended it) and because as first time parents, we assumed she was still hungry... None the less, it got of control, and my nipples were sore, so i allowed her to take formula from the bottle and any milk i pumped.
Realizing that this was not the path i wanted to take, i saw a lc out at 3 weeks, and she told me that my milk levels/flow were low, and that we should supplement with sns. (i have done this in the hospital to supplement until my milk came in). So it's been about two weeks, and she is feeding well off the breast as long as the sns tube is going. I will start her on the breast without the sns and she will go for maybe 3 minutes. Even with massaging during the breastfeeding, and i can't get her to keep sucking.
I've been taking mother's milk to help increase production, and pumping after feedings when i can. I'm not sure that my milk production has increased, seeing as she isn't thrilled to take the breast. but i'm also afraid that it has, and she's getting too much supplement during the feeding, and not enough from the breast? if that is possible?
Any recommendations to help wean her off sns feeding. I really enjoy breastfeeding, but am starting to feel hopeless that 1. i'll never be able to go out in public and feed her without supplement, and 2. that i have enough milk to do it :/
help please!!!

Skip to comments.Herb Alpert's 'Whipped Cream Lady' now 76, living in Longview and looking back
Posted on 08/17/2012 11:29:21 AM PDT by a fool in paradise
The Whipped Cream Lady who is the model on the memorable LP cover of the 1965 Herb Alpert & the Tijuana Brass' "Whipped Cream & Other Delights" is 76 now and living in Longview. Dolores Erickson wants to tell all you teen dreamers, "Enjoy the memories."
...The record spent 141 weeks on Billboard's Top 40 albums chart.
In later years, at concerts, Alpert would tell audiences, "Sorry, but I can't play the cover for you."
...Erickson drove up here to celebrate the 40th anniversary of Golden Oldies, the used-record store in Wallingford. A steady stream of fans stopped by, including, surprisingly, women.
...In 1965, she got a call to fly to Los Angeles for a photo shoot for A & M, a new label started by Herb Alpert and Jerry Moss. The photographer was Peter Whorf, with whom she had done other covers.
Payment would be around $1,500 ($11,000 in today's dollars), plus expenses.
The shoot began midmorning and lasted through the afternoon. Erickson put on a bikini, but with the straps down.
She was 29 and three months pregnant. "But I wasn't showing," she says.
Erickson sat on a stool and from the waist down, Whorf placed on her a white Christmas tree blanket.
Then shaving cream was sprayed on Erickson. Under the bright lights, whipping cream would melt, although it was real whipping on top of her head.
The shoot kept going, Erickson remembers, and she didn't notice that the shaving cream kept slipping down.
Months later, Whorf mailed her two outtakes.
"He sent them to shock me. And it did shock me. I screamed," says Erickson. "I was a Christian girl."

I still have that album
I grew up listening to Herb Alpert, still love it. He married Lani Graves who was the singer for Sergio Mendes and Brasil 66, for quite awhile.
I have about six copies (did a lot of bulk buying at estate sales in the last months before I left Seattle).
My first copy was stolen when I worked at my high school library in 1970. The cover made it popular. ;)
She still has nice hair and eyes.
Every adolescent boy in America had that album.
I can't believe how many times I see that album obscurely used in movies. Watch Boondock Saints. When their sidekick returns to the apartment in a rush to grab his stuff and leave, he grabs some records and that one is on top.
Yeah, he looks like a real Herb Alpert fan. ;)
I don't care what other people say the Sixties had the best looking ladies...
The Seventies are a close second.
Oh Herb Albert's music is great, too......
Eh, anybody could make that claim now!
I'm sure not just the minds of young men.
I wonder if she realized how many young boys dreams were fueled by that very sexy album cover. It is a testament to the old axiom that erotic is based on what you DON'T show in a picture.
I do too
I believe it is her featured on two album covers that were obviously done during the same shoot.
I remember that album. Do you still have it?
...The record spent 141 weeks on Billboard's Top
40 200 albums chart.
Yep. I just checked. I still have the album as well.
According to many internet sources, her name was Lani Hall. Perhaps you have some non-public knowledge on the subject.
She and Janis Hanson were the voices in so many great Brazil '66 songs from the 60's.
I believe that it's Ms. Hanson who sings the iconic Bacharach masterpiece The Look Of Love. Of the two female vocalists of Brazil '66, Lani Hall is the prettier, in my opinion. Herb Alpert knew how to pick 'em.
She has aged pretty well
That is awesome.
How did they get a grand piano out on those rocks ?
Hubby said the same thing last night while watching a PBS Ed Sullivan show.
Back in the day when even instrumental music would sell to the masses.
A spin off of Basso Nova.
For nearly 80? Holding up wonderfully.
Alpert is a true giant, A&M produced some great stuff back in the 60s, namely the last albums of the late, great Wes Montgomery. Some criticized Wes for those albums, but as a kid, I loved them.
I think you're right, I might have messed up her name.
....looks so much like my mom when she was young, it's scary.
I wonder how many young men wanted to learn to play the trumpet because of that?
Here they are today..time waits for no one but they both look good for their age..
Oh nuts. I thought maybe you knew her! I've always thought she was such a doll.
Nothing against Janis Hanson, either; she was a head-turner too. I just thought Ms. Hall had the edge in looks.
Here they are.
Mas que Nada
Damn, this stuff was cool! This is the part of the 60s I miss. I think they used this song in the original Austin Powers movie.
God does that song bring me back.
Great music is timeless.
I think her name may be Lani Hall.
"Mas que Nada" is sometimes translated as "More Than Nothing." Neither of the ladies singing it know Portugese, according to the lore. They memorized the words phonetically.
I loved Sergio Mendez and Brazil 66 as a fifth grader and I love them today. Not all their songs are that good; the ones that made it to radio airplay are pretty much the best.
If you like music of that era, something else you might check into is Mason Williams, composer/performer of Classical Gas. He was also a comedy writer; I believe he was the head writer for the Smothers Brothers Comedy Hour. Very, very talented guy. There are a number of YouTube videos of him playing in different venues.
That's just wrong, but funny
I rediscovered vinyl about 10 years ago. I had kept most of my old stuff and added to it from bulk purchases at estate and garage sales. I now have several thousand, not counting the junk I threw in dumpsters. I have less than $200 invested. The Herb Alpert stuff is still some of my favorite. I can't explain it. I guess it's what I learned to love even before rock. As an amateur studio recorder myself now, I love to listen to the different production styles in the music. They were all top notch musicians, too.
I listen to his stuff for the same pleasure a guy gets out of driving a fully restored, but very old auto. It's not for the handling...
She has kept herself very trim as well
Well, not so much. He was an alcoholic who split before I turned three.
I inherited my father's, not my mother's, looks. :(
Not all their songs are that good; the ones that made it to radio airplay are pretty much the best.
Yep. I got a lot of their stuff in my "estate saling" and some of their music is awful, but some is really catchy.
Then again, art is subjective.

The Auburn Tigers helped the SEC win its fifth consecutive BCS Championship Monday, knocking off the Oregon Ducks behind 329 all-purpose yards from quarterback Cam Newton and a remarkable run by running back Michael Dyer.
Dyer, a freshman, will return to the Tigers next season, but Newton is almost surely bound for the NFL Draft, where he projects as a top-15 pick. Like Oregon, Auburn was a veteran team in college terms and may lose a good number of its key contributors to the draft.
The team will still be talented enough to compete for an SEC and even national title, but they are certainly no sure bet to win either. Read on for an in-depth look at the 2010 Auburn Tigers, and their prospects for success in 2011.

The Westerville Central High School girls golf team has continued to take strides forward this season.
Last fall, the Warhawks more than doubled their league win total from 2011 when they finished 11-13 in the OCC-Capital Division.
Central is fourth in the league standings at 14-10 heading into the fourth and final round Tuesday, Sept. 10, at Westchester behind Dublin Coffman (24-0), Worthington Kilbourne (20-4) and Marys-ville (19-5) and ahead of Hilliard Bradley (13-11), Westerville South (9-15), Grove City (6-18), Westerville North (1-23) and Dela-ware (0-24).
The Warhawks finished fourth (359) in the third round Aug. 27 at Mentel Memorial behind Coffman (308), Kilbourne (333) and Marysville (344).
"I'm really proud of how my girls are competing this year and of how our senior leaders have set the tone for the season," coach Steve Stewart said. "They work hard every day in practice and their scores are reflecting the hard work that they've put in."
Junior Ana Borish has an 83.7-stroke average in league play, followed by sophomore Ellyn Briggs (85.7) and seniors Emma O'Brien (96) and Alexandra Hansen (103).
According to Stewart, the Warhawks have lowered their scoring average in league play from 381 last season to 368.
"The biggest highlight of the year so far has been seeing how much they've all improved since last year and how well they all get along with each other," Stewart said.
Warriors coach sees improvement
Because of scheduling conflicts and player obligations, North has not competed in any events outside the nine-team OCC-Capital tournament.
Freshman Lizzy Nelson is leading the team with a 105.5-stroke average. She shot a 99 in the third round of the league tournament, as the Warriors carded a 561 to post a team score for the first time this year. North finished eighth in the round and earned its only league win as Delaware did not post a team score.
Also on the team are sophomores Phoebe Alicardi, Diana Asta and Zoe Willan and freshman Kaylee Joseph.
"We haven't had a dual match to date, but the girls are improving greatly on their knowledge of the rules of golf and how to carry themselves on the course," coach Lane Halterman said. "Some of the girls did not have the summer to work on their swing, and we are focusing on the fundamentals and golf etiquette in practice. Some of the girls are still pretty new to the sport, but we definitely have potential in our future."
Davenport leading way for Wildcats
Junior Felicia Davenport is sixth in the OCC-Capital in stroke average at 80.7 through three rounds.
The five players with better scoring averages all play for Coffman. Shamrocks junior Kamerine Taylor leads the league with a 73 average.
Davenport shot a 77 in the second round Aug. 13 at The Links at Groveport to tie for fourth overall. She then carded an 84 in the third round, in which the Wildcats finished sixth (410).
South's next-best scorers in league play are senior Kaitlin Carlisle (103.3) and sophomore Kiely Stroupe (106.3).

LIMA, Ohio - Federal safety regulators have slapped a hefty fine on an Allen County business for alleged serious violations.
The U.S. Occupational Safety & Health Administration said in a statement late yesterday that it had fined Allen County Recyclers Inc., which does business as Allen County Pallet Co., $179,900, or one of its larger penalties.
The safety agency cited the company for two willful violations for failing to lock-out equipment before performing maintenance duties and for failing to provide adequate machine guarding. It also was cited for a repeat violation for failing to provide enough guarding on woodworking equipment.
Willful and repeat violations are the most serious citations OSHA levels. The agency also said the firm had serious violations involving forklift operations, housekeeping, materials storage, and electrical cabinet maintenance.
Neither OSHA officials nor anyone from the company could be reached for comment yesterday.
Details of the incident resulting in the citations were unclear. The OSHA statement said the agency last inspected the business in June, 2003 after an accident in which a worker was seriously injured when caught in machinery that did not have proper guards.
A separate health inspection by OSHA, a date for which was not provided, resulted in the agency yesterday revealing it has also cited the firm for a serious violation for failing to inform workers of the need and purpose of specialized testing for hearing and a willful citation for failing to do that testing.
Those citations were also part of the total fine. The fine was among the highest the Toledo OSHA office has issued in recent years. Allen County Recyclers has 15 working days to appeal the findings, upon which the citations and fine could be reduced. The safety history at the business also was not immediately known yesterday.

I have used Vita Biotic as a immune system booster for my compromised immune system (chronic fatigue, allergies) since 1989. I have found nothing comparable. If I am having a chronic fatigue episode, combined with rest taking 4 vita biotic every 3 to 4 hours for 1 to 2 days gets my system back into balance. iHerb's service is excellent, the prices and delivery time are exceptional.

As far as latch, I think the only thing to do at that age is concentrate on nursing in positions that encourage the best latch on the part of your child. So if side lying tends to involve scraping, but nursing on the couch does not, you try to nurse on the couch for a while. That sort of retrains your baby to latch better, by refusing to nurse with a bad latch. You can also model an open mouth for your child.
Often crappy latch at this age is aggravated by teething. Joe gets a kind of "grinding" latch when he's teething, that is SERIOUSLY unpleasant, but usually temporary, thank goodness!
Have you tried some polysporin on the cut? It's safe for nursing (you don't have to wipe it off) and may help that cut finally heal.
You can call me JoMo!

WateR600fall: Thermaltake Displays Water-Block for ATI R600
While some sources close to ATI Technologies back in mid-2006 were sure that the company would demonstrate the whole DirectX 10 lineup at CeBIT 2007, even the high-end water-marked R600-based graphics cards were shown behind the closed doors, whereas the RV610 and RV630 were nowhere to be seen.
So while some companies are demonstrating a new demo with Ruby, the others were able to show an improved cooling system for the product expected to be released this spring.
Thermaltake water-blocks for ATI R600 (above) and Nvidia G80 (below).
Click to enlarge
Thermaltake, the company which has been offering easy-to-use liquid cooling systems for graphics cards running ATI Radeon or Nvidia GeForce graphics chips for nearly two years now, plans to release its TMG AT L.C.S. 4 cooler for the R600 as soon as the appropriate graphics cards hit the market.
Backside of Thermaltake's water-block for ATI/AMD R600.
Click to enlarge
Representatives for the company are tight-lipped about thermal performance of the cooler, the water-block itself does not look much different when compared to L.C.S. 4 for Nvidia GeForce 8800 GTX graphics boards, therefore, we can expect that the R600 will have more or less similar power consumption with the G80.

Prague: The Czech Republic beat holders Spain 3-2 to win the Davis Cup for the first time as an independent nation when Radek Stepanek overcame Nicolas Almagro in four tough sets before a raucous home crowd on Sunday.
Stepanek, who jumped over the net and triumphantly waved his arms to acknowledge the 14,580 fans packed into the arena, was hugged by team mates before going to his wife with tears rolling down his cheeks after clinching victory in the final rubber.
His 6-4 7-6 3-6 6-3 win over Almagro meant the Czechs reclaimed the Davis Cup 32 years after Czechoslovakia won the trophy led by Ivan Lendl, who proudly watched this year's final at the 02 arena with his former team mates.

Daniel Levin: Don't Go It Alone
The Daniel Levin Quartet's Don't Go It Alone mirrors nature's abstract reactions and transforms them into music. By combining cello (Levin), cornet (Dave Ballou), vibraphone (Matt Moran), and bass (Joe Morris), the group creates textures that reflect the idiosyncrasies of life.
Highlighting the merits of collectivity, Levin's compositions often pair instruments. They then spotlight solitude's vulnerability by dabbing a fragile solo with spouts of uncommon sounds from the other instruments. 'In Parts' opens with Levin and Morris' dueling bows. The cello slices through the deep, plundering bass. In 'Non-Sense,' the cornet and cello embark on the same phrase, beautifully together, then breaking apart, falling out of step with each other, until they come to disagree completely before collapsing into spasms.
Moran's vibraphone adds a supernatural effect to the album, creating an atmosphere that conveys the fourth dimension. His notes pop and echo against the gloomy, mysterious, low tones of the cornet and cello. When he bows the bars, like in the opening track 'Unfortunate Situation,' the sound shimmers with twisted sustain.
All players converge in 'Underground.' Their cadence resembles a storyteller, a reference to the album title perhaps, suggesting that it takes more than one to relay a true message.
The second to last track, 'Fleeting,' gets lost in post-improvisational exhaustion, as the players balance time between breath and sound. But the pace picks up for the last tune 'Bronx No. 2,' Morris resuming his marathon down the bass neck. Levin, who apparently doesn't want the session to end, takes his frustration out on his cello by running his bow the wrong way, and banging his strings. Ballou seems to have contracted autism, with the incessant chatter on the horn.
While the growing shadows and dampening streets request nary a nod, Levin, with his debut recording as a leader, reminds us that moments often missed in the passage of time deserve some contemplation.
