text: Hi I'm new. ( also new to driving a pick-up ) Little over a year ago I bought a 2010 Sierra 4x4 1500 Ext cab 4.8L Nevada Edition brand new. Now I have noticed that say if I was to go and pass someone and put it right to the floor it seems that it hesitates before the power really kicks in and it kind of jolts the truck a bit. And also occasionally when I turn a corner the rear end can sometimes make a rough clunking noise and jolt the truck also. I am starting to worry the there is damage being caused by all this. It has done it since the day I bought the truck so for awhile I thought it was normal, and also the dealership said it was normal also, but I am starting to not believe them. I looked through the forums and could not find anything on this, so I am wondering if this is normal and if not how in the world do I get my dealership to fix this if they continue to say it is normal. I only have 76000 KM on the truck and its just over a year old. I was going to ask about the clunk when I change from park/reverse/drive but I saw the thread where everyone says that is normal. Thanks

Top 10 Free Apps for Android
An increasing number of new mobile phones are employing the Android operating system. In fact, it's booming. It was initially introduced by Android Inc., and Google and has become incredibly popular since it is based on the open source platform. This means that unlike other rigid mobile phone systems, anyone can build applications for Android resulting in a vast number of applications available. While some have cost money, here are my ten favorite Android apps.
For all my Android users out there, what do you think? What are your favorite free apps? Any recommendations??
With this great app you can read your favorite e-book on your phone. Just hope you're okay with squinting.
The Weather Channel:
Check out on your local weather with this free to download app, or check out weather in different cities if you're planning a trip and need to decide what to pack.
Barcode Scanner:
Barcode scanner helps you to look up prices and reviews of any product or services. With this application you can easily decode any QR code containing URLs , contact info, etc.
Advanced Task Killer:
This is definitely the best way to manage all your other applications.
This is a great application for all the Internet Marketing and Social Media Marketing wizards out there, and it not only supports Twitter, but also works well with Facebook, Google Buzz and Foursquare.
The most visited social network can now be accessed directly on your phone. A recent update adds Chat support allowing users to communicate in almost real time. The application is very fast and stable permitting its users to really enjoy Facebook and spend their time looking at too many random photographs. (Not me. Never.)
Adobe Flash Player 11:
Watching most of video clips just cannot be done without the help of this application. And it's free!
Free WiFi Finder:
With this free app you can find nearest hotspot to get connected to. Great for travelers and professionals on business trips.
Although this is a free application, the service of Last.fm has a subscription based mode, too. Regardless, it is still one of the best ways to listen to the music that is streamed and suggested to you according to your past selections.
One of the most popular email services is now easily available on your cell phone. It makes getting your email easier and faster than ever before, and can trick your coworkers into thinking you're always working.

Tweetdeck is definitely my favourite Android app. I'm completely hooked to twitter and I constantly need to know what's happening with my followers. Tweetdeck has an extremely convenient UI, which makes it perfect for me.
By Facility Management, February 21, 2012 @ 4:14 PM
The free wifi finder is awesome! I haven't had to pay for wifi in a long, long time
By Divya, February 21, 2012 @ 4:53 PM
Barcode scanner is my favorite app! I can decode any barcode and compare prices of the products. It scans a variety of barcodes on products, books, shipping labels etc. It then gives an option to search the scanned barcode on Google Web Search. This app is very easy to use and that's what makes it so famous. As I am a Facebook addict, I like the facebook application. I get my notifications; I can view pictures and stay connected always with my friends. It helps me instantly upload pictures. It is quick and convenient as it saves me the trouble to always login to my laptop for face book.

Android has been known as the most preferred operating system for smartphones and tablets. Because technology has ruled all over the world, people are now dependent on using high end gadgets to meet their errands faster and easier. For me, I find Android helpful in organizing and completing the tasks that I need to be done for the day. With their free applications, doing business and even personal activities are simpler and more convenient. Getting to know the weather for today is no longer that hard through the help of The Weather Channel. I can easily predict if I can go travelling in the next few days or not. Advanced Task Killer will assist me in managing my tasks. These are just few of the numerous free Android applications that can make my day a lot easier.
By Madhurima, February 21, 2012 @ 5:51 PM
I enjoy the kindle app mentioned above. I am an avid reader and when I travel or while waiting at the dentist this app comes really handy in passing time. Angry birds are another favorite of mine. It is a fun game and I can go and on playing it on my phone. Gmail and face book are apps high on utility. I definitely need my mails on the phone so Gmail is a must for me. I can instantly reply and I just can't do without this app. Face book is another app absolutely necessary to stay in touch and is a must have.
By rhikarhy, February 22, 2012 @ 10:13 AM
I totally love the Weather Channel. It's very accurate and it's also easy to update. I think I won't have any problems with what to wear or what to bring outdoors using this simple yet very functional app. It also helps me and my family prepare for barbecues and fun days out. We know just when to take a hike and when to go for a rainy swim!
By Transcription Jobs From Home, February 22, 2012 @ 5:15 PM
I like the Barcode scanner application . Its fabulous. It makes easy to read the printed barcodes.
By Transcription Career, February 24, 2012 @ 10:12 AM
One can't deny the importance of owning mobile phones.
These handy phones do not only serve your need for instant
communication, they also help you with office applications and
other similar functions. The bestselling mobile phones that we
have now are Android supported. Users find it convenient to use
the Android Operating System in its mobile phones because it is
an open source. This means the users themselves could develop
their own application which they can use on their phone. The
web applications of the Android phones are the most used now
since generally everyone is hooked to the internet. Through these
internet-based applications, new features keep coming which users
find addictive.
By Meenal, March 6, 2012 @ 8:15 PM
Without doubt the Android has done wonders for the mobile phone user today. It is by far the fastest phone and there is almost nothing you can't do with your android. I can go on and on about the possibilities with the various apps. I use a lot of apps, primarily the youtube and Vimeo for videos. I love watching music videos a lot and I can do that whenever my favorite artist's track is released without having to wait. I put my favorite apps as widgets, which helps me to access them faster. I also use the SoundCloud.

SWA casts doubt on UK alcohol proposals
The chief executive of the Scotch Whisky Association, David Frost, has questioned the effectiveness of several measures proposed recently by a group of UK Members of Parliament to tackle alcohol misuse.
In a report published earlier this month, the All Party Parliamentary Group on Alcohol Misuse warned of a "national crisis" as it put forward 10 proposals, including health warnings on all drinks labels, a minimum unit price and lower limit for drivers.
While agreeing that "misuse of alcohol causes significant harm to individuals and to society, and that we all have a responsibility to help tackle that," Frost argued that the manifesto overlooked significant progress that is already being made in this area.
He highlighted a decline by "almost a fifth" in the UK's alcohol consumption over the last decade, as well as a fall in alcohol-related deaths and alcohol-related crime since 2008.
Although broadly in favour of the APPG's recommendations for increased funding, better training and sobriety orders, which he noted the drinks industry already supports, Frost suggested that other proposals "are perhaps more complex than the APPG allows."
For example, he continued, "A single minister responsible for alcohol-related hard sounds attractive, but in reality almost nowhere in government is there a single minister responsible for any single thing." In the case of alcohol issues, Frost noted the need for Home Office involvement for tackling crime, while HMRC would be required to deal with cases involving illicit alcohol or duty evasion.
In response to a proposal that the Government should enforce tougher alcohol marketing regulation, Frost emphasised the industry's track record on self-regulation, as seen in measures announced last month.
"Government regulation is always there as a back-up if the industry ever behaves irresponsibly," he noted; "but since we do not there is no need to require legislative enforcement."
Turning to the recommendation that health warnings should be placed on all alcoholic drink labels, Frost highlighted that "80% of labels already have such a health warning."
He also insisted on a "fundamental difference" between the drinks industry and tobacco trade, which is already required to carry health warnings, as he maintained: "alcohol, when consumed responsibly and in moderation, can be part of a normal, healthy lifestyle."
Finally, Frost pointed to the SWA's longstanding opposition to minimum unit pricing for alcohol as he acknowledged the need for further discussion on the proposals put forward by the APPG.
Above all, he stressed: "Although our views differ on some of the means, we agree on the ends – reducing the harm done by alcohol."

As reported in Driven on Wednesday, Toyota and Subaru have run out of stock of their joint-venture sports coupe - before it has even landed.
Are buyers of these lightweight rear-drive sports cars just very excitable, or are Kiwi car buyers so confident that they're happy to slap down their hard-earned money for a vehicle that they've never even seen?
Known car, known quantity - a fresh model really is a toss of the coin, when you consider how personal car tastes are.
Don't get me wrong, having driven Toyota's GT86 model, and come away thoroughly impressed that the affordable sports coupe is making a comeback and doing it well, I'd thoroughly recommend it. And the Subaru BRZ, as the 86's identical twin would certainly qualify as well.
Throwing down a few bucks for something on an auction site, picking up a daily deal or even buying goods from overseas online comes with risk.
Buying a second-hand car sight-unseen is a very brave move - but buying a new car either online or on the strength of a slick brochure puts a lot of faith in the brand.
When the annual list of New Zealand's most trusted brands was released this week, it made sense that Toyota was the most trustworthy car brand - Kiwis love'em, they were made here, and most of us have owned one, in all likelihood a Corolla. And in the case of Subaru, the late Possum Bourne taught us to love'em, and we've stuck with it.
This case may just be due to the fact that the long-awaited BRZ and 86 were always going to be very popular and could easily sell out.
We innately place trust in companies as part of our connected lives from credit card payments for unseen goods, to piles of personal information.
Are we ready to start mostly doing our car shopping on the internet or from a brochure - or does the buying experience, and expense, mean it's best kept for face-to-face dealings?

The Associated Press: Texas jury convicts man in stand your ground case
He faces up to life in prison. My thought? Well, that's a good start...
The Associated Press: Texas jury convicts man in stand your ground case
He faces up to life in prison. My thought? Well, that's a good start...
Not a big surprise. If they had came to his house, and the shooting took place, I doubt it would have ever gone to trial. He went onto the other persons property. He instigated the confrontation. You can be a contributor and then try and stand behind a Stand Your Ground defense.
I am glad to see justice done. Now this guy needs a life in prison sentence.
Like no one saw that coming... He definitely won the "Grand Stupid Prize" for that stunt.
Sounds like a correct verdict to me.
And now he and his video tape can sink into the dark depths of the Texas Penal System... Just another statistic for Darwin.
I think I have never seen a thread here with so much agreement.
It really makes you wonder what made that guy tick and act so stupid.
Here, juries decide the punishment. They came back with a verdict quickly. He's probably going to be a lifer
by noon tomorrow.
It's not a castle doctrine nor a stand your ground case if he was trespassing. Didn't he read the part about being involved in criminal activity before he started blabbing off fearing for his life, standing his ground and they're going to try to kill him? Tad bit of mental illness if you ask me.
One down one to go.

Hope he knows how to stand his ground in prison when one of those muscle bound lifers asks him for a date :image035:
His attorney should have had him make an insanity case, he surely could have proved it---standing there for 22 minutes, filming the whole thing :confused:
What a travesty of justice. This guy should be given a medal for taking care of those noisy neighbors.
Ok, Hopyard, there is some disagreement for you since no one else will. :tongue:
I pointed out in another post about the stand your ground in Texas, exactly what the last line in the article said, you don't get to claim self defense and you are standing your ground if you are provoking the other person.
He has a long long time to think about his crazy notion that if you tell the dispatcher you are in fear of your life and are standing your ground how much that will work for you.
Serves him right, the Moron.
Nice of him to incriminate himself. Prosecutor had an easy job.
Thank you, thank you....
I have already posted the link w/ my comments on a couple of ANTI-RKBA leaning blogs that were championing this case (and the other five in the limelight) as "proof" that SYG was a Get-Out-of-Jail card for murders.
If one goes LOOKING for trouble, it can usually be found.:yup:


text: A post on another thread makes me wonder. My resident permit was issued by Ohio, and I have non-resident licenses from New Hampshire and Pennsylvania. This combo makes me good in thirty-nine states. Neither non-resident permit required finger-printing or additional training. Twenty-five bucks for my PA permit, one hundred for New Hampshire.

From: Selected Treats,
As one of the co-founders of adventure park chain Go Ape, Rebecca Mayhew is responsible for the nation's growing obsession with arboreal exercise. Before I took my leap of faith attached to a 500ft zip-line at The Outdoor Show, I caught up with her for a quick chat about fitness, forests and having fun.
They can challenge themselves, it's exciting and they'll have fun. We set up Go Ape because we very much felt that we wanted to encourage people to turn "I can't" into "I can" - to prove that if you challenge yourself, you often find you can do things and, in the end, enjoy them.
I think there's a lot in just being outdoors and getting out into the forest. It puts you in a good mindset. Physically, people say they feel quite stiff after [completing the course] because there's a lot of upper body strength needed even for just climbing up a rope ladder. You're going from tree to tree, using both your arms and legs, so it's a good workout all round. I think the majority of people end up feeling a little achey and say that that they didn't realise what they were doing, but feel it the next day!
I think we get a surprising number of people who have really had to convince themselves to come and take part. It's quite out of their comfort zone and in a way, that's even better because they are persuaded to really go for it. Then when they get to the end [of the course], they are absolutely delighted with what they've achieved.
The Trent Park site is the first of our courses where you can actually just get off the tube (at Cockfosters) and the entrance is a two minute walk away.
We'd been really trying to look at where we could find [a site] that close to London, but saying that, 4 or 5 of our other courses are really easy to get to from central London – only an hour to an hour and a half away. We're always on the lookout and if we find anywhere else, then we'll definitely do it, but I think the nearer you get to central London, the more difficult it is to find somewhere suitable.
I hate gyms, but I run about three times a week, I do some biking and I've got three young kids who keep me on my toes! I live right by the sea and so I also do kayaking, sailing - all that sort of thing. Fitting it in is challenging though and recently I've been so busy that I haven't really got back into it. It's quite easy for weeks to go by, especially after the holidays.
I do love running though. The fact that it's your time for an hour or so and you can obtain complete focus. You can mull things over, away from everything, and it just makes you feel really good.
For me, it's kind of more about establishing challenges and things I want to do this year. Help for Heroes is our charity partner at Go Ape and they've got something called 'Battle Back', where you bike from Portsmouth to Dunkirk (I think it's about 360 miles). There's that and a few other things that I want to get in my diary that I've got to aim for. I'm not very good at the cutting back – "I'm not going to do this, I'm not going to do that..." – it's more about having positive things to work towards.

Invites sent out to the press make it pretty clear that the event will be centered around the company's upcoming tablets with AMOLED displays.
Samsung it is holding an event titled "Galaxy Premiere 2014" in New York on June 12, and the "Tab into color" slogan on the press invite suggests an official unveil of the Galaxy Tab S.
The Galaxy Tab S has been making the rounds in rumors lately, and is expected to be a new tablet lineup that sports Samsung's trademark AMOLED displays. The tablet is said to come in 8.4-inch and 10.5-inch variants with high-resolution 2560×1600 displays, and other premium features like a fingerprint sensor, similar to the Galaxy S5. There is supposedly a 13.3-inch tablet on the cards as well, though it is expected to feature an LCD display that probably won't be as impressive.
Specs of the Galaxy Tab S are said to include an octa-core Exynos 5420 processor, 2GB of RAM, 8-megapixel and 1.3-megapixel rear and front-facing cameras, and connectivity options including Wi-Fi a/b/g/n/ac, Bluetooth 4.0 LE, GPS/GLONASS, LTE and an IR blaster. The tablets will run Android 4.4.2 KitKat with Samsung's Magazine UX, and will also feature a perforated texture on the back, according to leaked photos.

HomeGoods a bright spot in Q1 for TJX
May 17, 2011,
Framingham, Mass. - The TJX Companies ended its first quarter relieved that it had overcome its harshest year-over-year comparisons with comp and sales increases in its U.S. division at both Marmaxx and HomeGoods.
During the off-price chain's earnings call this morning, ceo Carol Meyrowitz described the company's growth last year as "overwhelming," prompting TJX Cos. to expect its first quarter to be "our toughest comparison for this year."
At Marmaxx, includes T.J. Maxx and Marshalls, comps were up 4% over last year's 10% increase, and sales grew by 7.5% to $3.5 billion. Additionally, customer traffic continued to be up regardless of poor weather in certain regions of the country.
HomeGoods experienced a 6% comp gain on top of a 15% increase last year, and sales increased 10% to $503 million.
"Our sharp execution is driving our strong results [at HomeGoods]," she continued. "We're offering great off-price values and an assortment of goods from around the world."
In Canada, while the harsh weather negatively impacted apparel sales, "our home business performed very well. We're excited about the launch of Marshalls in Canada, where our first five stores are now open. And so far, customer response has been very strong."
When asked by an analyst if the company's recent increase in "pack-aways," or early buys, was triggered by price inflation, Meyrowitz explained the company "is never shy on goods, great goods" regardless of timing, and said the company is reluctant to raise its prices.
"We only do [pack-aways] when we see wonderful deals. It's not about mitigating costs, it's about the product itself," she said, later adding "We're really excited about the product available [lately in the marketplace]. Our average ticket is flat today, and our intention is to give our consumer great value. We're pretty excited about the value we're giving our customer. If he world is out there at higher price points, then we have the ability to raise our price points. But we want to keep our distance between everyone else out there."
TJX Cos. overall results for its first quarter, ended April 30, included: a 4% increase in net sales to $5.2 billion; a 2% increase in consolidated comparable store sales; net income of $266 million; and diluted earnings per share of 67 cents.
Customer traffic was another highlight in the quarter, with its rates up over significant prior-year increases, "which reinforces to us that value remains top-of-mind for consumers regardless of the economic environment," Meyrowitz said.

Independence Bowl placed in AdvoCare custody
Those brave souls in central Georgia sworn to call it the Peach Bowl until your dying breaths, clutch your Bill Pullman catechisms and pray for your brothers and sisters to the southwest. In a coup not dared even by the hardest hearts of the Poulan Weed-Eater cartel, the Independence Bowl has been absorbed entirely by its title sponsor of four years and will be known merely as the AdvoCare V100 Bowl from here on out. We always had a weird fondness for the Independence Bowl, based entirely on an incident a few years back involving our writing partner making fun of Shreveport's waterways in an article, him being beset on all sides by raging Shreveport defenders pointing out with increasing cattiness that Kevin Costner owned a home there, and us taking that comment thread and making slam poetry out of it. (The course of building a career online never did run smoothly.) That fondness disappeared entirely the first time we set foot in Independence Stadium, but it's still kind of sad to see any sense of place done away with entirely -- even if that place once trapped us in a press box elevator with eight assistant coaches wearing tracksuits made of non-breathable fabrics.

Carbon Consciousness Hits Consumers
It has never been so chic to be eco-friendly. Former U.S. Vice-President and 2000's unsuccessful Presidential candidate Al Gore nabbed two Academy Awards on Feb. 25 for his documentary on global warming. Politicians are falling over themselves to establish their "green credentials," and banks are plowing money into developing trading platforms for carbon credits, or the right to emit specified amounts of greenhouse gases (see BusinessWeek.com, 11/1/06, "The Big Money Pouring into Carbon Trading").
Now, awareness of global warming and climate change is starting to migrate from governments and big corporations down to individual consumers. The buzzword of the moment is "carbon offsetting," or compensating for the environmental impact of activities—whether driving a car, taking a flight, or shopping at a department store.
Nowhere is this popular movement more pronounced than in Britain, where carbon neutrality has become the rage. Worried that your SUV is polluting the environment? No problem: Just pay the CarbonNeutral Co., Climate Care, Global Cool, or any number of other "carbon offset providers" a fee to fund a hydroelectric program, tree planting, or wind power program, and you can put your mind at ease.
Not Simply Words Now
There are even Web sites, such as www.carbonfootprint.com, that let people calculate the environmental impact of their lifestyles and make monetary contributions to eco-friendly projects to neutralize the effect.
Carbon neutrality also is becoming a catchphrase for image-conscious companies. On Jan. 15, for instance, venerable British retailer Marks & Spencer committed to becoming carbon-neutral within five years by cutting energy use, reducing carbon dioxide emissions from its delivery trucks, and even using less air freight. As a last resort, it will buy carbon credits to offset lingering environmental impacts.
"Marks & Spencer is taking a leadership role, very much in keeping with its image" says Rita Clifton, the London-based chairman of branding consultancy Interbrand. Unlike in the 1990s, she says, when companies "jumped on the bandwagon and said symbolic things about the environment," today they "are backing up their words with actions."
Real Benefits?
The same goes for banking and financial-services giant HSBC (HBC), which has adopted offsetting practices and went carbon-neutral last year. So, too, Rupert Murdoch-owned broadcaster BSkyB (BSY), which went carbon neutral in 2006. The media company mitigates its CO2 emissions by funding a hydroelectric project in Bulgaria and a wind farm in New Zealand.
Even airlines, whose environmental impact is becoming a growing public concern, are trying to polish their green credentials. New transatlantic business carrier Silverjet, which debuted in January, includes in the price of each ticket a mandatory carbon offset contribution. Customers can choose to reinvest earned "Carbon Points" into a number of climate-friendly projects around the world in partnership with the CarbonNeutral Co. (see BusinessWeek.com, 1/25/07, "Business Class at Bargain Prices")
Such moves sometimes have a genuine environmental benefit, but they're also designed to attract eco-conscious customers. And that, invariably, prompts questions over whether carbon offsetting is just a feel-good fad—the eco-equivalent, say, of jogging for a half-hour to compensate for eating a pint of Häagen-Dazs ice cream.
No Standards Yet
Indeed, some environmentalists have their reservations. Friends of the Earth, for instance, says it does not advocate carbon offsetting because widespread use of the tactic could shift focus away from developing alternative low-carbon technologies.
"Offsetting looks like a way to carry on with the polluting activity because you can buy your way out of the problem," the group says. Friends of the Earth also is concerned about the environmental credibility of many of the offset projects, which often are unaudited.
Also, with carbon offset schemes, it's difficult to calculate the actual damage caused by polluting activities. The amount of carbon emitted by an airplane, for instance, varies depending on its age, the number of passengers on board, and the route taken, among other factors. The price of carbon offsetting also varies widely among intermediaries. The CarbonNeutral Co., for example, calculates it costs $34.78 to offset the emissions for a round-trip flight from London to Los Angeles, while rival Climate Care puts the price at $37.08.
Sue Welland, who co-founded the CarbonNeutral Co. 10 years ago, originally as Future Forests, concedes there's potential for confusion about how the "virtual product" served up by offset providers is analyzed and measured. To help solve such questions, Britain's Environment, Food, & Rural Affairs Dept. plans to come out later this year with a set of standards for the types of carbon credits that can be used in carbon offsets.
Little Impact So Far
Even then, doubts may linger about the integrity of independent carbon offset providers or the validity of corporate carbon neutrality claims. To assuage such concerns, the CarbonNeutral Co. is audited quarterly by consultancy KPMG and another independent group. But many offset providers lack such controls. The lack of standards and audits "is an issue because we don't want anything to shake business or consumer confidence in carbon offsetting," CarbonNeutral's Welland says.
And for all the visibility carbon offsetting has attained, it may not amount to much as long as it's largely voluntary. British Airways (BAB), for instance, introduced a consumer-focused scheme on its Web site 18 months ago that lets passengers calculate how much they need to pay to make their flight carbon neutral. The airline uses British intermediary Climate Care to spend the money on sustainable development projects.
But customer uptake, at less than 1% of passengers, has "not been as high as we would have anticipated," says company spokesman Paul Marston. The airline is now trying to increase the visibility of the program on its Web site, where it may get lost amid special offers and other promotions.
The ultimate lesson of BA's experience may be that for carbon offsetting to have a meaningful impact on the environment, it can't rely on the sometimes fickle awareness of consumers. Rather, the cost of carbon—like that of taxes or health benefits—has to be built into the price and treated as a cost of doing business.

For Washington State athletic director Bill Moos, firing Paul Wulff was necessary because he didn't see "butts in the seats" at Martin Stadium.
Wulff's failure wasn't just about wins and losses to Moos. It was the state of the program, which needs to urgently work to get better on the field and with facilities upgrades.
"We've either got to run with the big dogs, or admit that we're a doormat," he said.
Moos' straight-talking news conference was as much about getting boosters back to investing in the football program as it was about Wulff's termination.
And Moos wasn't shy about talking about potential replacements for Wulff. He said he had a "short list" of about five or six names, and former Texas Tech coach Mike Leach and Houston coach Kevin Sumlin were on it. He said former Oregon coach Mike Bellotti and former Arizona State coach Dennis Erickson were not. Moos said he doesn't believe Bellotti wants to get back into coaching, which might tell you about his potential candidacy for the UCLA and Arizona State jobs.
Moos said he would form a search committee of one: Himself. And he wants to move quickly.
"We've got to do it pretty quickly or we are going to get left in the dust," he said.
Moos said he made the decision to fire Wulff on Sunday. Of their long conversation, Wulff said it "was very similar to the conversation we had last year."
Moos said he likes "flashy offenses," which would fit in with both Leach and Sumlin.
The takeaway from Moos: There is a sense of urgency for the program. It needs to improve its facilities and infrastructure to help recruit better players. It needs to spend more on salaries to recruit better coaches. And it needs fans in the seats at Martin Stadium to bolster revenue.
It would appear that while some of that feels like a chicken-and-the-egg quandary, all involving money, Moos is going all-in with the idea that the critical first step is hiring an A-list coach.
Can he pull that off? We'll see.

More From Coca Cola Addicts – Some Broad In New Zealand Drank Herself To Death
(NEWSER) – Heavy drinking may have led to the death of a New Zealand woman—but it wasn't alcohol she was glugging. It was Coca-Cola, TVNZ reports. She reportedly drank some 2.2 gallons (that's 18 pints) of the soda every day, AFP notes, a habit that went on for years. Her family called it an "addiction" that resulted in the removal of multiple rotten teeth and the birth of at least one child lacking tooth enamel; her partner said Natasha Harris suffered withdrawal symptoms if she didn't drink the stuff. The 31-year-old mother of eight died following a cardiac arrhythmia in February 2010, and the coroner called out Coke in his report, which was released today: "I find that, when all the available evidence is considered, were it not for the consumption of very large quantities of Coke by Natasha Harris, it is unlikely that she would have died when she died and how she died." The examination after her death revealed an enlarged liver with fatty deposits due to too much sugar, a pathologist said. Low potassium in her bloodstream may also have been linked to the soda. Harris apparently consumed more than two pounds of sugar and 970mg of caffeine a day; experts say even 500mg is dangerous. Coca-Cola said it was "disappointed" about the coroner's emphasis on Coke in Harris' death, though his report did state that the company "cannot be held responsible for the health of consumers who drink unhealthy quantities of the product." (In other gloomy soda news, the diet stuff may pose a big diabetes threat.)
Yesterday we had the dude who lost all of his teeth and rocks dentures. Today we see some chick drank 3 gallons of Coke a day and killed herself. The unwavering dedication these people show in their crusade against water is downright admirable. Like as far as I'm concerned, Natasha Harris is a martyr. She died for her cause. Team Soda. Fuck Water! Yes, its disgusting that she basically gave birth to a child who lacked the ability to grow teeth. Yes, the thought of her liver being consumed with sugary fat is horrendous. But you know whats more disgusting and more horrendous than all of that?
Drinking plain ass boring water. And don't try to tell me that seltzer is a substitute. Seltzer is fucking revolting. Bitter bubbly dirt water. Bottom line is I'd rather have 31 years on this planet toothless with birth complications than spend 75 drinking water. Give me dentures, give me death. Just give me soda.

Hong Kong GC
Storied Hong Kong GC, currently the permanent home of this past week's Hong Kong Open, is more than 100 years old and easily China's oldest golf establishment.
The club, known for most of its long life as Royal Hong Kong Golf Club, was formed on Friday 10th May, 1889, by "thirteen golfing enthusiasts".
Initially they had a great deal of trouble finding sufficient land in a land-hungry region, but eventually they were given permission to play at Happy Valley, a tract of land used for football, polo, hockey and military parades.
This meant they had to take their turn with the other activities - and were not permitted to construct such things as bunkers, tee boxes and greens.
They overcome these obstacles to some extend by using nets for bunkers and granite setts for the holes.
By 1891, membership had grown to over 100 and a small shed was built as a clubhouse where refreshments were served and players were able to socialise after a round.
By 1896 the "crowded conditions" led to the committee deciding that the ladies could only play on a "very restricted basis".
The pressure on starting times eventually became so great that the captain and club officials were forced to find an additional location at Deep Water Bay, which, besides providing an area for a small 9-hole course, also provided perfect bathing.
But there were drawbacks.
At that time Deep Water Bay was only accessible by launch from Victoria Harbour.
A Clubhouse was erected at Happy Valley in 1898 by which time members were making their way to the course in boats or on ponies which they rode over Wong Nei Chong Gap, whilst the caddies walked, carrying their clubs and picnic baskets.
In 1904 football and the other activities that had previously taken place at Happy Valley were drastically cut and the area was turned over almost exclusively to the Golf Club, except on Wednesdays and Saturdays when football and cricket were played.
Ladies were now even allowed to play on a Sunday.
In 1911, thanks to the negotiating skills and foresight of ER Halifax and some others, sufficient land was obtained from the local farmers and, with Government approval, a full 18-hole hole golf course was built at Fanling
That was the 'Old Course'.
The New Course was completed in November 1931.
Finally a third 18-hole course, the Eden, was added in 1970.
The 'Royal' nomenclature was dropped in 1996, but it has taken nothing away from the high quality reputation the club has built up over the past Century.
Today it is ranked as one of the finest clubs in the world.
Its championship layouts have been able to attract major winners of the calibre of Peter Thomson (1960, 1965 and 1967), Mr Lu Liang-Huan (1959 and 1974), Nick Faldo (1990), Bernhard Lanager (1991), Tom Watson (1992) and Jose-Maria Olazabal (2001).
The Club has also hosted the Eisenhower and Espirito Santo Trophies (1984), and in recent years was chosen as the site for the Asian Zone qualifying rounds for the Dunhill Cup.
The first Johnnie Walker Classic in Asia was played there in 1990 and won by Faldo after he had posted a course record 62.
Not to be outdone, Bernhard Langer shot a 63 in winning the Hong Kong Open in the following year, but Ian Poulter went three better when he shot a spectacular 60 on his way to victory in the Hong Kong Open in 2010.
The Club celebrated its Centenary in 1989 and has entered its second hundred years recognised as one of the leading golf clubs worldwide.
Its three, full 18-hole courses at Fanling and its 9-hole Par 3 course at Deep Water Bay, along with its swimming pools, tennis courts, excellent restaurants and top class accommodation, have made The Hong Kong Golf Club one of the premier golfing destinations in Asia.
The 'New Course' where this week's Hong Kong title is to be fought for, is a beautiful, pristine, par-70 parklands course with only two par fives, the 3rd and the 13th, and with three of it's four par-three holes (the 2nd, 5th and 8th) on the front nine.

My Side of the Cave - A Look at Our World With a Little Common Sense Thrown In HTML version
You then kick off your shoes and blow out a deep breath, like you are releasing all the
weight of the world. At this moment in time, there is no pretension, there is only you.
Freedom's next step may involve a glass of beer or wine, some soft music and sitting
back in your favorite easy chair to unwind.
If this all sounds familiar to you, it is because all of us face this same experience
everyday. The world outside your door can be menacing, tangled and overwhelming. The
home is the place that separates us from the insanity of life. That's the reason that your
home is more than a structure. It is your security blanket. It is your cave or your castle. It
is your little private world.
It is better if your home is a bit older, like wine, it gets better with age. A home with
some size to it is good, as this offers more places to hide things and yourself. Your place
need not be too tidy. A little dust is good for the soul. A small bed like place, comfy like
a mattress of straw, a bit lumpy and with some pillows, near a window is good for
afternoon naps and your regeneration.
Some other get away areas may include an old soft chair with a little light over your
shoulder for reading. This area is especially cozy when not kept too neat.
It is good if some rooms in the house have some warm spots or cold spots. In the winter,
it is refreshing to visit a north window and see a little snow on the inside of the glass
pane. This is a reminder to be humble!
A covered and screened porch in the spring and fall is wondrous. The fresh air, the
sunshine and the busy noises wake us up to life. On the porch you are still in control.
Only a few feet away is that door to your privacy and security. The porch is also better if
it has some age with natural wood floors and perhaps an overhead fan. This is a place
where you can be a spectator to all the activities of life, some children playing, some
neighbors discussing the everyday stuff, a dog barking and a gentle breeze through the
trees. This is great! Back in the house, if it's a bit cold, a good warmer-upper is an old
stove or fireside. Every home should have a fireplace. It is oh so civil!
These remembrances allow us to see what is really important in life. The good things are
usually simple and cost little.
I also like color. It can be used to set the tone of a particular room, or make it warm or
cozy. The opposite side of that is the wonderful feeling of natural wood. My father used
knotty pine in his office and I will never forget the majesty of it.
Basements and attics can be great hideaways if temperature or moisture is not a problem.
I love old roomy garages or barns. They can hold memories of another time.
All in all, today's homes and today's cars, have lost a bit of the character that they once
had. However, they remain our most valued personal assets.

Common sense. The thread

What we dream of, that we are.
What I most love about Lockport is its timelessness. Beyond the newer facades of Main Street—just behind the block of buildings on the northern side—is the Erie Canal: this impressive stretch of the 524-mile New York State Canal System connecting the Great Lakes with the Hudson River and traversing the breadth of the state. For residents of the area who have gone to live elsewhere, it's the canal—so deep-set in what appears to be solid rock, you can barely see it unless you come close, to lean over the railing of the wide bridge at the foot of Cottage Steet—that resurfaces in dreams: the singular height of the falling water, the steep rock walls, the gritty, melancholy smell of stone, froth, agitated water; the spectacle of the locks opening, taking in water and closing; the ever-shifting water levels bearing boats that seem miniaturized in the slow, methodical ritual-like process. "Locksborough," a contending name for the early 19th-century settlement, might have been a more accurate one, since there are numerous locks, to accommodate the especially steep incline of the land. (Lake Erie to the west is on a much higher elevation than the Hudson River, and Lockport—"Uptown" and "Lowertown"—is built on an escarpment.) Standing on the Big Bridge—"the widest bridge in the world," as it was once identified—you feel a sensation of vertigo as you peer down at, or into, the canal 50 feet below; not so overwhelming as the sensation you feel staring at the legendary falls at Niagara 20 miles to the west but haunting, unnerving and uncanny. (Think of "uncanny" in the Freudian sense—Unheimlich—a sign/symptom of a deep-rooted turbulence associated with buried and unarticulated desires, wishes, fears.) In the midst of city-life, at the very noon-tide of day-life, there is the primary, primitive vein of elemental life in which human identity is vanished, as if it had never been. Falling water, turbulent water, dark frothy water churning as if it were alive—somehow, this stirs the soul, makes us uneasy on even cheery visits back home. You stare down into the canal for a long dazed minute and then turn back blinking—where?
You didn't let Joyce see, did you? Oh—Fred!
Not a thing for a little girl to see. I hope she didn't...
An early memory of being with Daddy—in Lockport—and there is a street blocked with traffic and people—one of the narrow streets that run parallel to the canal, on the farther side of downtown—and Daddy has stopped his car to get out and see what is happening—and I have gotten out too, to follow him—except I can't follow him, there are too many people—I hear shouts—I don't see what is happening—unless (somehow) I do see—for I have a vague memory of "seeing"—a blurred memory of—is it a man's body, a corpse, being hauled out of the canal?
Joyce didn't see. Joyce was nowhere near.
Yes, I'm sure!
Yet years later, I will write of this. I will write of a little girl seeing, or almost seeing, a man's body hauled from a canal. I will write of the canal set deep in the earth; I will write of the turbulence of falling water, steep rock-sides, the roiling water, unease and distress and yet at the core, childlike wonderment. And I will write—repeatedly, obsessively—of the fact that adults cannot shield their children from such sights, as adults cannot shield their children from the very fact of growing up, and losing them.
So strange!—"uncanny."
That, between the ages of 11 and 15—through sixth, seventh, eighth and ninth grades—I was a "commuter student" first at John E. Pound School on High Street, Lockport; then at North Park Junior High in the northeast section of town near Outwater Park. (Though the term "commuter student" wasn't in anyone's vocabulary at that time.) For five grades, I'd gone to a one-room schoolhouse in Millersport—then for no reason that was ever explained, to me at least, I was transferred to Lockport, seven miles to the north—a considerable distance for a child at the time.
In this era before school buses—at least in this rural corner of Erie County—such commuter students were required to wait out on the highway for Greyhound buses. Decades later I can recall the sudden sight—at a distance of perhaps a quarter-mile—of the large bus emerging out of nowhere, at the intersection of Millersport Highway with Transit Road, headed in the direction of my family home on Transit.
The bus! Not a greyhound, it seemed to me, but a large ungainly beast—a buffalo, or a bison.

Caribbean Sun Before Xmas: Ventura Cruise Review by bittlenutuck
Overall Member Rating
Caribbean Sun Before Xmas
Destination: Eastern Caribbean
Embarkation: Barbados
Impressed with Ventura overall, although now showing a few rough edges to common areas. Balcony Stateroom was excellent in terms of quality and comfort.
Sharon our steward was also very good and we got to know her quite well.
Appears to be more bars, clubs, venues on board in comparison to say Celebrity Eclipse. Very good onboard drinks prices and like the fact prices are GBP without added tax etc.
Overall v good entertainment - Headliners brilliant + Freddy Mercury tribute + Fogwell Flax as Sting +. Rest much of a muchness but still above working mens club More standard.
We chose freedom dining which was a great choice whether you wanted to share tables or be on a 2. We used White Room to celebrate wife's birthday....excellent. Also used Ramblas which was good but menu options a bit restrictive. Food quality and choice in main dining room very good but you had to be careful about combinations as sometimes you didn't get what you expected.
Buffet breakfasts and lunch OK so slong as you could work out which restaurant was open when. Bit a bun fight due to high volume of diners on occasions especially port days..not to be unexpected.
Biggest criticism was with passengers adopting typical sunshine/hotel mentality of sunbed booking at ridiculous times of the day. I'll swear towels were out at the crack of dawn on sea days with nobody in site other than a towel and a book. Hence not enough sunbeds or a quicker turnround of beds. By the end of the cruise you could see more and more passengers getting frustrated.
Overall, brilliant experience and would have no hesitation on sailing with PO again Less

sorry its been so long i keep missing your calls. its always 2 or 3 in the my time and i am sound asleep if ya know what i mean. living in the fraternity house has been amazing, best decision of my college career. i have been studying hard and playing very very hard. Isabelle looks so happy to be back with you and she looks like shes having fun there. i am going to figure out in a couple of days my study abroad options. i wanna come study with you! love you and ill get some skype minutes and call you!

Back In China
Loading Map
I started teaching this week at Chongqing University of Technology. I am teaching 5 different classes of Oral English. It should be fun. This week went smoothly. I introduced myself to my students, told them what to expect this semester and explained the grading system. It should be an easy and fun year. I also get to teach in media classrooms. I can use power points and show pictures
I am living on the Old Campus and teaching on the New Campus. It is a similar situation to last year. The old campus is nice and has lots of trees and grass. The new campus is really nice. They have a brand new soccer field, the buildings are great and a lot of little lakes and river
Isabelle is here with me!! It was a tough trip for her. She had three different flights and about 24 hours in her crate, total. She had no accidents and was well behaved when I let her out in the airport. The Chinese are pretty scared of her. They have this image of big dogs being violent. If they only knew how laid back Isabelle is it would be easier. I am not allowed to walk her through the front gate. The guards worry she will scare students. Other than that she is allowed everywhere. Restaurants, shops and most places don't have a problem. My only worry is she won't get enough exercise. It is really hot right now and I when I take her to the park she gets overheated and loses energy. The water here is not clean enough for her to swim. So she can't have a quick swim to cool off. I have been taking her on night walks and she is having a blast chasing cats. She has no chance, but she tries hard. Cats are everywhere!!
My apartment is great this time. A working TV, new furniture, CLEAN, internet access and big. I was really happy when I walked in. It was much better than last year's. My buddies Alex, Pat and I have a maid/cook. She cleans each of our apartments once a week and cooks three times a week. It is great. She started yesterday and is an incredible cook!! All for about 750rmb a month, $120 dollars. Not bad!!!
My car is fine. I park right outside my building and I have had no problems. The drivers in this city are the worst I have seen in the world. It is insane. Left blinkers to go right, cutting you off and doing u-turns in dangerous situations
Pat and I worked out today. A guy we met, Rockie, who we have hung out with a lot helped us find a gym really close and got us a 50% discount. The gym is terrible, but next month they are moving. The new space will be amazing!! They will have all new cardio and weight equipment, dance studio, pole dance studio and $1.50 hour long massages on site!! We are pumped (literally)!! I am also ready to do some pole dancing.
I have included pictures of my apartment and Isabelle and there will be more to come.
Man in the Middle Kingdom Out!

We remember the people who lost their lives in the Christchurch earthquake. Learn more and share your memories and thoughts.
Kelsey Sinitta Moore, 18, was walking down Manchester St with her five-week-old baby daughter Taneysha Prattley, her partner Glenn, his father Stan and his sister Rochelle, when the earthquake hit.
Glenn Prattley knocked Rochelle out of the way of falling glass, almost certainly saving the 21-year-old's life, but both siblings were knocked unconscious.
He woke up in hospital with a broken leg - but no sign of Taneysha or Kelsey.
It was an agonising wait for Mr Prattley, who was transferred to Dunedin Hospital to recover, but on Tuesday, March 8, 2011, police confirmed both mother and baby had died.

Thread: TomTom Home problem
07-19-2010, 03:58 AM #1TomTom Home problem
Once again I am not sure if this is the right forum for this query?
I have a TomTom Go720 and have put TomTom Home on my iMac 20 1/2 to support it. I normally use it on my Windows laptop, but decided to try it on my iMac. When I try to do anything on the iMac to the GPS it keeps on telling me that I am trying to write to a read only file.
Has anyone come across this and if so how did you sort it out please?John. I have discovered that wine gets better with age. The older I get the more I like it !

I too have a TomTom 720 with full UK/Western Europe map. Only thing that comes to mind is that the internal memory of the TomTom is full. After one update I couldn't write any more to mine for that reason.Experience teaches you to recognise a mistake when you make it again.

Paul Tracy Quickest on Day 1 at Spring Training
Monterey, California -- March 9th, 2007 -- Paul Tracy and the Forsythe Team shattered Mazda Raceway Laguna Seca's Champ Car track record of 1m07.772s set by Helio Castroneves in 2000 by over a second today, with a lap of 1m06.707s in their brand new Panoz DP01. After a difficult and disappointing test at the Houston MSR Road Course in February, the Team's hard work and dedication over the last weeks has paid off as the blue and white #3 INDECK Champ Car proved to be quick right out of the box. The Team will be back on track tomorrow for another full day of testing in preparation for the Champ Car World Series Season Opener at Las Vegas on April 8th.
Paul Tracy (#3 INDECK Cosworth/Bridgestone/Panoz)
Fastest on day 1 - 1m06.707s / 120.779mph
"It was great, we have not been to Laguna in years and they have done some repaving, so it is a little bit smoother on the tires and a little more consistent. Over all I am very happy on how the day went. We had such a bad test in Houston, but we came out here and were flawless today, no mechanical problems and the car ran perfectly, so I am happy for Forsythe Championship Racing. The whole Team has been working really hard since the last test and it is definitely showing. The car was very quick all day, the more we adjustments we made the better it got. This new Panoz is a lot faster than the old car, especially when you are going through the fast corners, the downforce lets you carry a lot more speed. I made a small mistake on my fast lap while going through the corkscrew and left some time on the table, we could've been probably two or three tenths quicker, but tomorrow we'll keep working at it and I'm pretty sure that we'll be able to break the Formula 1 track record set here last year (1m06.309s)."
Phil LePan, Team Manager
"The Team and Paul did a great job today. It was a very productive day, we did a lot of laps without any problems and not only was our new Panoz reliable, it was also very quick. We also had a lengthy standing start and pit stop practice session in which we managed to gather more data. There still a lot of work to be done with the launch control system but we are learning more and more every time and I'm sure that we'll be able to keep adjusting it until it is just right."
