Who is Cam Newton's Girlfriend - Report Claims He's Dating Ciara
Who is Cam Newton's new girlfriend? The rookie quarterback of the Carolina Panthers has stunned many NFL experts with his furiously fast start on the football field and now the former Auburn Tigers player is said to have quickly developed a relationship off the field with Ciara.
She is pictured above and her full name is Ciara Princess Harris and the Texas beauty has other A-list hook ups as she once dated rapper Bow Wow and in May of 2011, Ciara confirmed a relationship with NBA basketball player Amar'e Stoudemire.
The report that she is dating Cam Newton comes from Media Take Out.
See more details here.
Will it get serious? She told OK! Magazine earlier this year:
"I love kids, and I can't wait for that moment, but it's all about timing – and the right timing. I've always kept that in my mind, and that motivates me to be the best I can be so I can do that, and eventually sit down and enjoy myself. But because of my career, I want to be smart, and get what I can get out of life before taking that step so I can be a good mom."

|Patriots Look Poised For Another Super Bowl Run
|Bruins Trade For Drew Stafford
|Black and Gold Bruins Turn Yellow On Parade Day
|Inconsistency Will Continue For Bruins Unless A Change Is Made
The Teams: New England Patriots (5-2) at Indianapolis Colts (3-4)
The Terms: Regular Season Week 9
The Place: Lucas Oil Stadium, Indianapolis, Indiana
The Time: 8:15pm
The Channel: NBC
3 Burning Questions:
The Patriots have lost two ugly games so far and have some gritty wins. The Colts are just a couple of plays away from being 1-6. With the Colts at home and a depleted running back corps for the Patriots not predicted to expose the Colts major weakness, a lot of pundits are picking Indy. I think the Colts are an aging team (more so than the Patriots) and their confidence just isn't there. If Manning makes a couple early mistakes the Patriots must pounce on them. This will end up being a defensive battle into the fourth quarter but I think the front seven of the Patriots are peaking at the right time, and Cassel showed he is maturing thanks to the late game-winning drive against the Rams.
Patriots 24, Colts 20
Tags: Adalius Thomas, BenJarvus Green-Ellis, Bill Belichick, Jerod Mayo, Joseph Addai, Kevin Faulk, Matt Cassel, Mike Vrabel, Peyton Manning, Richard Seymour, Sammy Morris, Tedy Bruschi, Tom Brady
If Bob Sanders is healthy enough to make a difference, then the Colts should win.
However, Matt Cassel is improving and his receivers (as long as they dont drop the ball) are getting more comfortable with the young QB.
Patriots 21, Colts 20.

Germany is not short on places to visit. Car hire unlocks the country and will have you coming back for more after just one trip...
Whether you opt for the cutting-edge urban culture of Berlin, the beautiful northern beaches, the historic cities and wineries of the Rhineland, the Bavarian lakes, Black Forest or the Danube and Elbe Rivers, there are hundreds of fascinating places to explore.
In Germany car hire is a great travel option, as the autobahn network is famous worldwide for its efficient coverage and the lack of speed limits. You can organise care hire from all sizeable towns and cities but most people pick up their car from the airports, primarily the main entry points of Berlin Tegel (TXL) or Schoenfeld and soon to be Brandenburg (BER), Frankfurt (FRA), Dusseldorf (DUS), Hamburg (HAM), Hahn (HHN), Hannover (HAJ), Munich (MUC), Leipzig (LEJ), Bremen (BRE), Cologne (CGN), Dresden (DRS) and Stuttgart (STR).
With a hugely cosmopolitan feel, particularly within its more urban areas, Germany is certainly a great destination. It has over 80 million inhabitants and is a political and economic powerhouse and is also hugely influential in the arts and popular culture. You'll find yourself overwhelmed by the mass of history, progressive developments, gorgeous scenery and energetic cities. The people are friendly and often speak excellent English. The food and drink in Germany is also wonderfully diverse and delicious. Try traditional Wurst sausages, rich and hearty stews, German rye bread, noodle soups and the superb array of apple and cherry pies, flans and tarts that are on offer everywhere. You must of course, try the strudel too - real German strudel is a revelation!
March through to May and October to early November bring mild and pleasant weather, but fewer visitors. These can be great times for exploring the towns and cities or getting into your rental car and driving through the countryside on an exploratory trip.
April and May are gorgeous months if you wish to see orchards filled with fruit trees and meadows overflowing with glorious blooms. Autumn is also popular for those looking to catch an Indian summer and this isn't uncommon in Germany. November and March are very popular for both winter sports and city breaks. These are perfect times to visit all the museums, churches and indoor attractions in the cities.
The skiing season starts during December and continues until March, so there really are good times to visit all through the year and it's usually possible to get good prices for flights from London airports and regional airports around the UK.
Once in the country, you can use your hire car in Germany to great effect and explore places to suit your tastes...
You could drive the Romantic Road in the country's southern regions to witness glorious countryside and rolling landscapes. Or visit the factories and car museums of BMW, Mercedes Benz and Porsche in cities such as Munich and Stuttgart. The Germans do love their cars and are understandably very proud of their automobile brands.
You'll notice the references to Germany's impact on the world as it was the birthplace of notable figures, including Goethe, Karl Marx, Einstein, Beethoven, Martin Luther and the Grimm Brothers. You're also bound to be impressed by the scenery.
Many travel simply to see the towering Bavarian Alps and beautifully blooming mountain pastures. Everywhere you look you'll see ancient forests, verdant vineyards and romantic valleys with flowing rivers.
Many of Germany's villages and towns are ancient and you'll find many castles and timber-decorated villages. In terms of when to travel, Germany is a great destination all year round and it's best to pick your travel time according to the type of holiday you want. May to September tend to be the most popular times and summer is certainly gorgeous for the outdoor life - the beer gardens are packed, there are festivals and outdoor activities galore and plenty of cycling, hiking and swimming to enjoy.
Many people visit Neuscwhanstein Castle, as well as the medieval town of Lübeck, which is a UNESCO World Heritage Site. There are many other locations to choose from in this diverse and beautiful country and it is well worth trying to get off the beaten track to really discover the 'real' Germany and its people.
If you're a fan of the outdoors, drive up to the Alpine Peaks, where you can go skiing and snowboarding. Other great destinations include the cities of Dresden, Berlin, Cologne and Munich. Look out for the legendary Oktoberfest, which celebrates the national drink, beer.

NH Jumps as Parent Named Preferred Bidder for Woori: Seoul MoverSeonjin Cha
NH Investment & Securities Co. jumped the most in more than three years after its parent company was named the preferred bidder for Woori Investment & Securities Co., the country's biggest broker by assets.
The shares surged by as much as 12 percent, the steepest intraday gain since July 2010, and traded 5.1 percent higher at 5,190 won in Seoul as of 12:07 a.m. Woori Finance Holdings Co. on Dec. 24 said NH Financial Group Inc. was the frontrunner to buy 38 percent of Woori Investment.
The selection brings NH Financial closer to a deal that could let it "take the lead in terms of scale and competitiveness" in the brokerage industry, according to a Nov. 28 e-mail from NH Investment. The sale of Woori Investment may push brokers to consolidate as the government seeks to build a national champion and competition squeezes profits.
"Getting Woori Investment will give NH decent scale and a decent investment banking business," Heo Pil Seok, chief executive officer at Midas International Asset Management Ltd., which oversees about $8 billion, said by phone. "Retail investors seem to be the ones rushing to buy NH Investment."
Woori Finance slipped 0.4 percent to 12,750 won and Woori Investment was unchanged at 10,000 won, while the benchmark Kospi index rose 0.2 percent.
NH Financial, which has 255 trillion won ($241 billion) of assets, holds seven affiliates including NongHyup Bank, according to the company's website. The group, wholly owned by the National Agricultural Cooperative Federation, was also chosen to buy Woori FG Savings Bank and Woori Aviva Life Insurance Co., Woori Finance said Dec. 24.

" Genre: Action & Adventure / Video Game for Xbox 360 / Release Date: 2011-04-01 / Published by Warner Bros. Interactive "
* Prices may differ from that shown
If you've already played one of the Lego titles then you pretty much know what to expect from Lego Harry Potter, it's a game based on the 1st to 4th Harry Potter books and it's set in a Lego 'universe' but to describe the game so simplistically would be massively selling it short.. It's funny, cleaverly made and interesting, in my opinion, it's the best Harry Potter game out there (not counting of course the newly released Lego Harry Potter years 5-7).
The game is, overall, a pretty accurate representation of the books, with its begining right the way back, as baby Harry is being dropped off at the home of his aunt and uncle (in a cutscene that sees lego Hagrid come crashing through the gardens of Privet Drive and jump from the wreckage only to accidentally pull a bunch of blocky flowers from his overcoat instead of the tiny lego baby) and ending with a fantastic minute long cut-scene that ties up all the loose ends and shows the departure of the Durmstrang and Beauxbatons students in their magnificent ship and flying carriage respectively. The game also covers all the major events you would expect in between, the fight with the two-faced quirrel, a daring escape from the club wielding troll, the bloodthirsty basalisk and a dangerous dragon to name just a few. A lot of effort has been made to include as much detail as possible and this gives you the feeling of being presented with the opertunity to immerse yourself in the books and play through your favorite harry potter moments as Harry Potter himself, well Lego Harry at least... But, maybe you're not a fan of Harry and you've always secretly prefered Ron, well no problem, you can play as him instead, theres a really good variety of characters from the very well know to the slightly obscure, so theres someone for everyone to play, theres even the option for you to earn yourself 15 gamer score as you play though the game as Voldemort and defeate Harry... Oh the irony!
The game has been designed with a real sense of humour thats apparent in that even the 'darkest' of scenes, even the touchy subject of death (Cedric Diggory) is handled in a light-hearted and humourous manner and so makes the game potentially a more suitable choice for younger gamers, who may find the more 'realistic' harry Potter games avaliable a little scary. The funniness of the game also gives it a certain charm that adults will appreciate, theres something for everyone. In particular, fans of the Harry Potter series who may find it hard not to constantly burst out laughing whilst playing.
Theres plenty to do in the game with lots of things to find and collect, and with students getting themselves into perilous situations all over the castle you'll never be short of daring rescues to attempt. The stud collecting can get a little repetative at times, but unless you're an avid achievement hunter or someone who likes to compleate the game to 100% then stud collecting is merely a fun side-line and not an essential part of the game. Another thing that I found to become a tad tiresome were the voices of NPC as they wander round in the background, there are really only 2 main noises the characters make, a low pitched 'uh-uh' for boys and a high pitched 'ah-ah' for the girls, but if it really drives you mad you can always turn off the sound!
If you enjoy playing with a friend the game offers a 2 player co-op mode which is great, as there are so few good 2 player games about at the moment. The only drawback is the occasional difficulty that can arise because of the camera angles in 2 player modes and it is possible sometimes to get your friends character a bit stuck.. Although annoying, it isnt a huge issue and certainly shouldnt stop you from getting lots of enjoyment out of the 2 player mode.
Aside from the slight camera issues I only have two real gripes with the game. Sometimes spells dont aim very well and go firing off all over the place or at other characters, I wont lie it's a pain in the bum at times and sometimes have even left the game and gone back to it because it was doing my head in, but I really wouldnt let that put you off buying the game, the good certainly more than outways the bad and it is the games only control issue, other than that the controls are easy to use and seem to be well placed and also the menus very pleasant to navigate. My only other issue, is that some of the boss fights were a little easier than I was expecting and the last fight with Voldemort in the graveyard particularly, left me feeling a little underwhelmed. It is however a game aimed at those of all ages, so it would I suppose be daft to exclude younger players by making the game too difficult for them.
In summery, this game is by far one of my all time favorites and I would reccomend it to everyone, unless of course you dont like Lego or arnt that into Harry Potter, although even then I'd still say give it a go, this game is that good it just might make a convert out of you!
I'm a great fan of Harry Potter and I love Lego, so mixing the two is fabulous for me. I'm not, however, an avid gamer so sticking it on the Xbox is a bit of a novelty. I'll be honest at this point, I need a handy child to tell me how the controls work and help me navigate around the Xbox properly so I'm not what you'd call a hardcore gamer. But the Lego / HP combo was enough to draw me in.
In spite of my ineptitude on the console, I found this game very easy to use. The controls are quite straightforward and the game guides you along, showing you how to do different spells as you acquire them. The game follows the story of the books and movies so if you've read/seen them the game progression should be quite familiar. Interspersed at the beginning of and between levels are little Lego versions of scenes from the movies which are also pretty funny.
The game play is very clever with the player using spells and skills of the characters to solve puzzles and complete tasks in order to complete the level. Different characters can have different skills (for example, Professor McGonnagall can turn into a cat, Hermione can use her book to solve certain puzzles, Dudley Dursley is extra strong) and the 'bad' wizards have access to the Avada Kadavera spell which the good wizards don't. The game progresses through each book/movie until you've finished book 4, and then you can go back and replay each level using different characters which means that all levels can (and in fact must) be played more than once. You can also go into Hogwarts between levels and there are puzzles to solve around the castle outside of the levels.
Challenges in the game are to complete all the levels, find and collect characters (which you can then use in replay levels), collect red boxes (which gives you access to extra skills) and collect gold bricks.
The game is a lot of fun. I'm not sure that it would be very challenging to the hardcore gamer but my kids absolutely loved it, and I found it very enjoyable and easy to play. As you're able to go back into the levels once you've played them - to collect extra characters or just because you enjoyed it - I found it lasted for a long time and therefore is good value for money.

Best Of :: Food & Drink
Best known for its see-and-be-seen scene where the in-the-know go to snuggle up against the bar and chat with owner Adde Bjorklund, Bistro Adde Brewster is also the town's premier stop for savvy salads. Featuring absolutely fresh ingredients tossed in unique combinations, the salads come in two styles: small plates, such as warm-braised Belgian endive leaves mixed with bacon, or aged chèvre and toasted walnuts in a heart-healthy veggie broth; and entrees that place sesame-seared ahi in a sesame-ginger vinaigrette, or lamb chops coated in citrus-sparked gremolata over mixed greens in a dressing flavored with cumin and oranges. With over a dozen choices available, Adde's customers can live, and relive, their salad days.
Since September 11, we Americans have been self-medicating our depression with foods that remind us of hearth and home, warmer, fuzzier times, and the good old days when you could get on a plane without getting felt up. Mashed potatoes, macaroni and cheese, roast chicken and Oreos are being consumed in record numbers as we seek out restaurants that comfort the heart as well as the stomach. And you won't find a more comforting place in town than the lunch-only Tom's Home Cookin', which does a fine job with all of our homey favorites (okay, not Oreos, but Coca-Cola chocolate cake is a mighty good substitute). Owners Tom Unterwagner and Steve Jankousky know how to nurture through nature's most soothing comforts: pot roast and cheesy potato casserole, warm cornbread and peach cobbler. Maybe if bin Laden had tried the daily bargain, "meat and two" for $6.45, he'd have had a better outlook on life.
You're a grownup now, and it's time to put the neon orange mac 'n' cheese mix behind you, not inside you. In keeping with its name, Dazzle goes for something above and beyond, serving up a macaroni and cheese that's positively dizzying. Elbow macaroni and four cheeses -- parmesan, Fontina, mozzarella and gouda -- are mixed in just the right proportions so that the noodles are all melty and soft but not too wet or dry; a large bowl of this goodness is evenly covered with buttery breadcrumbs and tossed under the broiler until the top begins to sizzle, then finished off with a smattering of diced tomatoes and fresh basil. So very adult, so very dazzling.
Since chef Goose Sorenson -- formerly of Mel's Restaurant and Bar and Starfish -- took over the kitchen at this difficult address that last year was Ambrosia, things have been looking up. For Solera, the dining area has been reworked to seem more intimate and inviting, and the menu is filled with Sorenson's eclectic inventions, including foie gras on a ginger-snap crust. The standout offering, though, would have to be the mashed potatoes, done two different ways: The roasted-garlic spuds, sweet and toasty, come with the succulent braised lamb and nicely grilled salmon entrees; and the rich, oniony mascarpone mashers accompany the crunchy-skinned Chilean sea bass. Both versions feature such smooth, feathery textures and rich, buttery undertones that we're tempted to head into the kitchen with our spoons.
When the world's going to hell in a handbasket, you'll find us at Bang!, drowning our sorrows in the tangy, beef-rich homemade gravy that comes slathered over Bang!'s juicy meatloaf, a your-mama-never-made-it-like-this gourmet version with plenty of intense seasonings and none of the gristle often found in ground beef. The mashed potatoes (more gravy, please!) and sautéed spinach that come with the hefty slice add to the plate's comforting capabilities. For a warm-and-fuzzy finale, take on a large square of the heavenly gingerbread topped with whipped cream. Bang! -- this restaurant got us again.
Step into Lincoln's Road House, and it may seem as though you're back in the '70s-era wood-paneled basement at your friend's house where you used to sneak beers. But don't let the ultra-casual lounge atmosphere fool you: Behind the bar lurks a kitchen that knows what it's doing, especially when it comes to meatloaf. This loaf is meaty, all right, studded with big pieces of onion for flavor, and it comes sliced an inch thick and slapped on a thin but substantial bun that's been buttered on the inside and grilled. Lettuce, tomato and mayo give extra moisture to the already juicy sandwich; a side of well-seasoned, skin-on fries and a small bowl of homemade macaroni salad round out the meal. Down a few Buds and play something on the jukebox -- which offers King Missile's undeniable classic "Detachable Penis" -- and you'll really feel like you're back in the basement.

So I take my car to a shop in town that specializes in foreign cars. I tell him the deal, he says probably air still in the cap or whatever. He bleeds it, I stan at the door watching everything they do, Guy turns around and fingers me to come over their, so I do. He says watch this... "NOTE" My car has been running 20 minutes, its at normal (I think) operating tempertures... He sticks his finger into my fan and stops the blades. I was wow'd. He says, I shouldn't be able to do this, and spins it the opposite direction, pulls finger out and fan starts to rotate more, I tell him, why in the world he would do that and he tells me " I have big balls " HAH I guess so. So my problem was my clutch fan. Getting a new one tmw. Thanks for all the replies guys!

This is a discussion on Comparison Pics - M&P 45 Compact vs. Kahr CW45 within the Defensive Carry Guns forums, part of the Defensive Carry Discussions category; There are plenty of reviews on these two pistol on the net, but I don't think I've ever seen any comparison pics between the two. ...
I'm surprised at how similar. Nice photos. So the Kahr is a bit shorter and a bit thinner, but has pretty much the same length of grip to get hold of. Not a lot of size savings, really, but enough to make a difference for many folks.
I have a K40 on the way, and everytime I see another photo such as this one, it makes be more anxious. My, they ARE nicely put together, aren't they?
I carry the MP45c, so I'm already a major 45c bigot...absolutely love it. But, I'd have to say anyone in the market for a small 45 would just have to take a look at the CW45. Very nice indeed, and the fit-and-finish looks to be 2nd to none and step above the Smith.
If I had to live my life again, I'd make the same mistakes, only sooner. T Bankhead

Great pics, thanks for posting. I was just saying in another thread that I do not find my CW45 much more concealable than my XD 45c (which is about the same size as the MP45c). As such, the Kahr often just sits in the safe because it doesn't hold as many rounds.
I don't see myself getting rid of either one. Love 'em both!
Slow is smooth.....smooth is fast.
I love my M&P 45 compact, but I go to a Kahr CM9 when wardrobe dictates the smaller weapon.
For some reason, I am able to transition well between the two different triggers.
I got rid of my DA/SA guns, because it threw me off when shooting my old Kahr K9.
I may look at a CW45, or CM45 (when they come out) at some point

Immediately after releasing our Adjustable Body Mounts for the Traxxas Slash 4x4 (#73932), RPM customers with the 2wd version of the Slash wanted adjustable, more durable body posts too. RPM Adjustable Body posts for the Traxxas Slash 2wd are here and are designed for durability and strength while still allowing you to change the body height on the truck.
Our unique body post mounting system allows the option of using the stock body height on the chassis. The body can also be lowered as much as 3/16 or raised as much as 3/8 simply by moving the posts up or down on the mounts.
This simple, yet clever design is strong enough to handle the toughest of conditions while still allowing enough flex to absorb impacts that could otherwise damage other more fragile internal components of the chassis. Everything about our body mounts and posts are beefier than stock from the thicker than stock screw mounts to the twin screws holding the body posts on to the mounts. We also use an I-beam shape throughout each mount, which provides the strength these parts need for those less than perfect landings.
Tech Notes: These body mounts and posts are fully height adjustable on the Traxxas Slash. For vehicles listed above other than the Slash 2wd, each part number may be used although adjustability may be limited based on the vehicle used.

Paul Rush gets some deep sea action outside the Rarotonga reef.
My Shimano rod is bent in a tight curve as the great fish dives towards the seabed, dragging nylon line off the reel at a rate of knots. The big game reel is screaming under the strain, the side plates are heating up and my arms feel like lumps of lead carrying the weight.
Finally, I seem to gain the upper hand and crank hard to retrieve line. A faint white smudge appears below the surface. Suddenly a sleek, powerful wahoo launches itself two metres out of the water like a performing acrobat and crashes down in a flurry of flying spray. I struggle hard to draw the 20kg fish up to the boat, where the skipper cuts him loose - it's catch and release for wahoo today. The monster takes off like an express train at 80kph. I've just hooked the fastest fish in the ocean.
I take a spell from my piscatorial labours in the forward bunkroom easing my back down onto a soft squab. Above my head are two whimsical printed slogans that prove fishermen have a sense of humour. 'Born to fish, but forced to work' and 'If they don't have fishing in Heaven I'm not going'.
My little jaunt out of Rarotonga's Avatui Harbour on the Pelin hull sportfisher Akura, begins on a clear blue sky morning in July. The sturdy vessel eases out of the marina, glides through a narrow gap in the fringing reef and within five minutes we are in marlin fishing territory with a 120 metre water column below the boat. Trade winds are livening up the deep blue seas in this little pocket paradise in the heart of the Pacific Ocean.
George Koteka is the skipper and Joe Vakatini the deckhand. Both have fished these waters all their lives and hold many game fishing records. George's briefing on this sunny 24°C mid-winter day has the Kiwis on board looking at each other in mock surprise. 'It's one of those horrible days in paradise; a southerly is blowing hard, I'm wearing longs and a beanie and will soon slip into a wet weather jacket to insulate me from the cold.' He's not joking and later does wrap up warm.
'We run a dry boat with only sandwiches and water - when we get back to port we make up for it. We'll be back at 2pm tomorrow, so you'll miss your cruise I'm sorry.' Our look changes from surprise to horror as we have come off the cruise liner Pacific Sun on a day excursion - George is joking again.
Joe tells us he's fished out of Tutukaka in Northland. Auckland is like a second home for most Rarotongans. George has hosted both Bill Hohepa and Graeme Sinclair's TV fishing programmes in the past. Back in 1978 Joe drove the last Wellington tram from Thorndon to the Newtown Zoo.
Two flying fish suddenly appear, sailing through the air like graceful dive bombers. Skipjack tuna are in the area and with seven lines trolling behind the boat there's an air of expectation on board. The brightly coloured fishing lures skip merrily over the water like frightened bait fish. Two lures at the end of the outrigger lines are wobbling frantically just under the surface, inviting a spectacular strike.
Three rods are dragged down simultaneously and the cry goes out. 'Grab the rods - quick!' Three of us race into position and take up the strain. My fish feels like a tonne weight as the boat is still going forward. The fish then dives deep over the top of the next line, which goes slack and my companion momentarily thinks he has lost his fish. Then my fish gets confused and swims towards the boat and I wind in line frantically, keeping the rod tip up and maintaining pressure on the line. When it sees the boat it goes berserk, leaping in the air, twisting, turning, somersaulting in a vain attempt to throw the hook.
After much grunting and straining we haul three 6kg skipjack tuna onboard, which George quickly dispatches inside the storage bin. The skippies are usually numerous in July but later in the year blue marlin, yellowfin tuna, mahimahi, white tips, tiger sharks, bronze-whalers and hammerheads make their appearance. George has often spotted spinner dolphins, humpback whales and whale sharks out in these deep waters. Joe's best day's catch was a marlin and 20 tuna while George can claim six wahoo, 30 tuna and three amberjack (kingfish).
We continue to make trolling sweeps past two fish aggregation devices, known colloquially as 'Fads'. These are large metal cylinders anchored with heavy duty ropes about two kilometres offshore in one thousand metres of water. They are very effective in attracting fish and huge schools of skippies and yellowfins have been spotted by our skipper at times. He has seen oceanic sharks half the length of Akura coming in to check out the boat near the Fads.'
Viewing the island of Rarotonga from the water is equally as therapeutic as the fishing. The deep blue sea runs up to the broken white line of the coral reef, which is just fifty metres off white sand beaches backed by soaring coconut palms. Almost hidden by the lush vegetation are three iconic Cook Island institutions; Trader Jack's bar and restaurant, the Banana Court café and the District Court building. Beyond are the brilliant mossy green slopes of ancient volcanoes rising into classic conical peaks shrouded in wispy, cotton wool clouds. I find myself gazing repeatedly at this exhilarating tropical landscape in the quiet intervals between hook-ups.
Rarotonga has a special place in the hearts and minds of New Zealanders. For a period of 64 years from 1901 it was officially part of this country. In that first year of the 20th Century Prime Minister, 'King' Dick Seddon, decided that as France and Germany had an empire in the Pacific, we should have one too. So it was decided to annexe the Cook and Niue islands.
Surprisingly, Captain Cook landed on Palmerston and Atiu islands but was unaware of the existence of Rarotonga. This island was undoubtedly the last stepping off point for the various fleets of double canoes that brought the first Maori navigators to Aotearoa. They had migrated south from the Marquesas and Society Islands sometime after 400AD. Every expedition had first sought blessings and protection at Taputapuatea Marae on Raiatea Island, the spiritual and geographic hub of Polynesia.
Rarotonga is deservedly a very popular tourist destination and I never tire of its balmy climate, velvet smooth tepid waters and friendly people. Around 60,000 visitors come here each year to rub shoulders with the 9000 local residents who occupy an island that would comfortably sit inside Wellington Harbour.
I come ashore from my enjoyable day out on Akura and relax on the edge of the sea in Trader Jack's cafe. The air is still and fresh and the mid-winter temperature feels perfect. It's a much warmer and more relaxing version of home. The locals are friendly and share a few 'kai manuia' greetings, wishing that good fortune will shine upon me. In a way it already has, by coming to 'Raro' for some 'reel' excitement and tight lines. I'll be back in the mahimahi season.
Air New Zealand operates daily services from Auckland to Rarotonga. There is a range of accommodation to suit all budgets and the local currency is the New Zealand dollar.

CHARLOTTE, N.C. (AP) — Authorities say the son of professional wrestler Ric Flair has been found dead in a North Carolina hotel room.
Charlotte-Mecklenburg police says officers were called to a hotel on the city's south side around 10:30 a.m. Friday. When they arrived, they found the body of 25-year-old Reid Fliehr, who also was a wrestler.
A statement from police says there are no signs of foul play, and that the cause of death will be determined by the medical examiner's office.
Flair's agent released a statement Friday describing Reid as "an incredible son, brother, friend, and professional wrestler."
Ric Flair's real name is Richard Morgan Fliehr. The peroxide-blond wrestled for some 40 years and also was known as The Nature Boy.
The 64-year-old won many pro wrestling titles including in the WWE.

I just finished my first trays. I put on my second tray and then got curious about what the next two sets (3&4) looked like. Each package is marked U & L 3 & 4 but the trays inside are both marked U & L 2. I even tried on what should have been the 4th set and the feel just like the ones I'm currently wearing. This must be a mistake right? I am going out of town and want to be sure I have the correct trays with me.
Should There Be Multiple Trays with Same Number on Them?
Doctor Answers 2
Trays with same number
Each successive tray should have a different number. If they are not different I would speak to your dentists and find out what is going on. I have done a ton of cases and never have seen that

I would love if you had some photo tech info attached to these, like exposure, ISO, lens, focal length, etc.

I tried adding a plugin that showed that info, from the meta data WordPress grabs (I think) but it seemed to work only sporadically and after some time fiddling about with it I gave up.
One of these days I'll devote an evening to sprucing up my blogs.

ConAgra Beats, Falls On Forecast, Weak Consumer Demand
Food giant ConAgra (CAG) was tumbling despite a better-than-expected quarter, as a difficult operating environment persists across the industry.
For its fiscal third quarter, ConAgra said it earned $271.6 million, or 65 cents a share, up from $214.8 million, or 50 cents, a year earlier. Excluding one-time items, earnings were 51 cents, two cents above consensus. Revenue jumped 7.4% to $3.37 billion, also squeaking past analysts' estimates of $3.35 billion. Operating margin rose to 14.3% from 13.3%.
However, the company is operating in a difficult environment, where rising input costs are forcing food companies to pass price increases along to consumers, often at the expense of sales volume. The company reined in expectations for the full year, saying it expects to see a low- to mid-single-digit growth rate, while analysts had been looking on average for 14% year-over-year earnings growth.
In recent trading, ConAgra was down 0.9%.

Paintings happen to be a prominent form of art. Painting summons a lot of creative ideas from a painter and as such, it reveals the human psyche to a considerable extent. Paintings contribute to the beauty and elegance of any place. Because of all the factors, paintings do have immense commercial prospect in the society. Antique or old paintings are – as such – rare items of collection, for which collectors spend fortunes. Antique paintings – in particular – have tremendous craze among the genuine art lovers. Considering the huge commercial prospect of these works of art, many individuals buy these items with the intention of reselling at a higher price.
As such, the art of recognizing antique paintings is a gifted skill that could prove overwhelmingly promising for any individual. Most of the paintings in this world – irrespective of being antique or not – do have an inherent meaning, which is known only to the painter, along with a handful of his/her closest associates. To a collector – it may on the contrary – represent a complete different meaning all together. A part from personal issues and incidents, a painting may represent large social and political issues, etc. as well. The story of a nation building can be perfectly depicted through paintings. Even unfortunate incidents of warfare, famine, natural calamity, etc. can be represented through paintings. Paintings – as a matter of fact – serves many aspects at one go.
- Paintings depict a contemporary society, covering its socio economic and cultural, etc. aspects
- They represent natural events and occurrences
- These objects of art reveal political incidents, including events that represent the building of a nation
In addition to all those above, a painting truly adds up to the beauty and elegance of a place, like nothing else. It is because of all these impressive and valuable aspects that a painting is often exorbitantly priced. Given the high commercial aspect, antique paintings are often faked and spurious copies are sold to interested customers. Therefore, before closing a deal on procuring a rare painting, it is crucial to run a thorough check both on the source and on the product in question. It is better to rope in someone who has substantial knowledge on the field. Most interestingly, antique paintings, apart from depicting the history of a particular time frame, often have a history of their own. This history is evaluated by the facts like, which celebrity's home a particular painting adored in the past and so on.
Normally, auctions are held for facilitating the process of painting sale. Events like painting for sale are often attended by scores of people from all walks of life. The aspect of art for sale also involves a sheer passion. That is why, impresarios chip in such enormous amount of effort in facilitating a sale event. This business of artwork sums up to zillions of dollars, across the world, round the year. In fact, a number of online galleries have come up to facilitate to the process of purchasing various artworks for the customers.
willium cokxin is a very famous author and online consigner of artwork online. With experience and quality of several years he is a prime candidate in this field. Mr., cokxin is one the most so after names when it comes to Canvas paintings online.

In Faith And Poltical Philosophy: The Correspondence between Leo Strauss and Eric Voegelin, 1934-1964 comes the following dialogue between Strauss and Voegelin:
May I ask you to let me know sometime what you think of Mr. Popper. He gave a lecture here, on the task of social philosophy, that was beneath contempt: it was the most washed-out, lifeless positivism trying to whistle in the dark, linked to a complete inability to think "rationally," although it passed itself off as "rationalism"–it was very bad. I cannot imagine that such a man ever wrote something that was worthwhile reading, and yet it appears to be a professional duty to become familiar with his productions. Could you say something to me about that–if you wish, I will keep it to myself.
Warmest greetings,
Leo Strauss
April 18, 1950
Dear Mr. Strauss,
The opportunity to speak a few deeply felt words about Karl Popper to a kindred soul is too golden to endure a long delay. This Popper has been for years, not exactly a stone against which one stumbles, but a troublesome pebble that I must continually nudge from the path, in that he is constantly pushed upon me by people who insist that his work on the "open society and its enemies" is one of the social science masterpieces of our times. This insistence persuaded me to read the work even though I would otherwise not have touched it. You are quite right to say that it is a vocational duty to make ourselves familiar with the ideas of such a work when they lie in our field; I would hold out against this duty the other vocational duty, not to write and to publish such a work. In that Popper violated this elementary vocational duty and stole several hours of my lifetime, which I devoted in fulfilling my vocational duty, I feel completely justified in saying without reservation that this book is impudent, dilettantish crap. Every single sentence is a scandal, but it is still possible to lift out a few main annoyances.
1. The expression "closed [society]" and "open society" are taken from Bergson's Deux Sources. Without explaining the difficulties that induced Bergson to create these concepts, Popper takes the terms because they sound good to him; [he] comments in passing that in Bergson they had a "religious" meaning, but that he will use the concept of the open society closer to Graham Wallas's "great society" or to that of Walter Lippmann. Perhaps I am oversensitive about such things, but I do not believe that respectable philosophers such as Bergson develop their concepts for the sole purpose that the coffeehouse scum might have something to botch. There also arises the relevant problem: if Bergson's theory of open society is philosophically and historically tenable (which I in fact believe), then Popper's idea of the open society is ideological rubbish. For this reason alone, he should have discussed the problem with all possible care.
2. The impertinent disregard for the achievements in his particular problem area, which makes itself evident with respect to Bergson, runs through the whole work. When one reads the deliberations on Plato or on Hegel, one has the impression that Popper is quite unfamiliar with the literature on the subject–even though he occasionally cites an author. In some cases, as for example Hegel, I would believe that he has never seen a work like Rosenzweig's Hegel and the State. In other cases, where he cites works without appearing to have perceived their contents, another factor is added:
3. Popper is philosophically so uncultured, so fully a primitive ideological brawler, that he is not able even approximately to reproduce correctly the contents of one page of Plato. Reading is of no use to him; he is too lacking in knowledge to understand what the author says. Through this emerge terrible things, as when he translates Hegel's "Germanic world" as "German world" and draws conclusions from this mistranslation regarding Hegel's German nationalist propaganda.
4. Popper engages in no textual analysis from which can be seen the author's intention; instead he carries the modern ideological clichés directly to the text, assuming that the text will deliver results in the sense of the clichés. It will be a special pleasure for you to hear that, for example, Plato experienced an evolution–from an early "humanitarian" period still recognizable in the Gorgias, to something else (I can't recall any more if "reactionary" or "authoritarian") in the Republic.
Briefly and in sum: Popper's book is a scandal without extenuating circumstances; in its intellectual attitude it is the typical product of a failed intellectual; spiritually one would have to use expressions like rascally, impertinent, loutish; in terms of technical competence, as a piece in the history of thought, it is dilettantish, and as a result is worthless.
It would not be suitable to show this letter to the unqualified. Where it concerns its factual contents, I would see it as a violation of the vocational duty you identified, to support this scandal through silence.
Eric Voegelin
My dear Mr. Voegelin,
I have never thanked you for your interesting letter dated 18.4. In confidence I would like to tell you that I showed your letter to my friend Kurt Riezler, who was thereby encouraged to throw his not inconsiderable influence into the balance against Popper's probable appointment here. You thereby helped to prevent a scandal.
Make of their comments what you wish.

Why in your opinion has ISU changed the GP selection format? The reduction in skaters would seem clear enough as they are trying to cut costs.

Doesn't it follow that with fewer of the lower level skaters and possibly more of the best skaters ISU is hoping for more exciting and competitive events?

In his book The Social Animal, David Brooks explores the formative effects of our unconscious world on our conscious world. His approach is not so much Freudian psychology as it is pop sociology, a la Malcolm Gladwell. At its core, the book reveals that we are products of our habits and routines more than we are products of our reasoned, structured decisions.
In the book, Brooks invents some fictional protagonists and, following Rousseau's Emile, uses them to live out his propositions. Overall, the convention works, though it is strained at times by Brooks' somewhat clumsy attempts to weave technical literature and references into the flow of the narrative. I found Brooks to be at his strongest early in the book, weakening as the story played out.
Of particular poignancy for me was a short passage in chapter 4 illustrating the differences between "paradigmatic thinking" and "narrative mode." Paradigmatic thinking is likened to a legal brief or academic essay, which "consists of stepping back from a situation to organize facts, to deduce general principles, and to ask questions" (Kindle location 1080). In contrast, narrative mode resembles myth in that it "contains another dimension, not usually contained in paradigmatic thinking–the dimension of good and evil, sacred and profane" (loc. 1086).
Brooks describes the outworking of the narrative mode in young Harold's play with his friends. Their play was often structured on a narrative arc which had all the classic story elements: exposition, inciting incident, rising action, climax, falling action, and resolution. In Brooks' example, Harold and his friends pretended to be cowboys riding horses and mending fences until, that is, "the Invaders" appeared.
The boys reacted to the Invaders with alarm and dread. They scrambled about on the carpet, and lined up their plastic horses against the Invaders, but they screamed at one another, "There are too many of them!" All seemed lost. Then Harold produced a giant white horse, ten times larger than the other toys they were playing with. "Who's this?" he cried, and answered his own question: "It's the White Horse!" And he charged off into the Invaders. Two of the other boys switched teams and began hurling Invaders at the White Horse. An apocalyptic battle raged. The Horse crushed the Invaders. The Invaders bloodied the Horse. Before long the Invaders were dead, but the White Horse was dying, too. They put a cloth on his body and had a mournful funeral, and the Horse's soul went up to heaven. (loc. 1088)
Brooks goes on to write about how Harold's father, Rob, watched with interest but detachment. His mind, given over to typical adult paradigmatic thinking, just couldn't track with the boys' play. The chapter closes with Rob holding onto the hope that his son will one day "grow out of it" and "start joining the human race" (loc. 1107).
In recent years, there has been a growing interest in recovering the place of narrative and story within the Western church. Modernity failed to deliver on the promises of the Enlightenment and the Industrial Revolution, both Christian responses–fundamentalism and liberalism–have likewise failed, with the former devolving into an insular circling of the wagons and political grandstanding, while the latter capitulated to a rapidly growing secularism and ended up an anemic shadow of its former self. Both have "grown up," to use Brooks' language, into their paradigmatic fullness.
It is no surprise, then, that disaffected evangelicals and mainliners are finding one another in their attempts to recover the narrative of the Great Tradition. Invoking different words to describe what it is that they're doing (emerging, emergent, missional, to name a few), they hold in common a desire to re-situate their faith and their communities into a longer and broader stream of Christian history and praxis. Over and against dogma and structure, these communities prize narrative.
In particular, it is the power of narrative to shape faith communities in ways that are different–and arguably more effective–than the faith and discipleship taxonomies that dominated the late 20th century. Only time will tell whether the present resurgence of narrative for faith and community formation is a fad or lasting corrective. I hope it turns out to be the latter. Aren't we, after all, People of the White Horse?

The company, which owns PR businesses including Bell Pottinger, Harvard and Good Relations, has seen its PR division continue to struggle after losing a big US government contract last year.
Bell said Chime's other operations, which include ad agency VCCP and sports marketing business Fast Track, have performed "satisfactorily" in the year to 9 May.
"We are forecasting a decline in revenue and profits in the public relations business which will affect the full year results," said Bell, prompting analysts Numis to cut its underlying pre-tax profit target for Chime by more than 12% to £28m this year.
Bell also gave an update on the proposed management buyout of certain assets within the PR operation, which he says account for 10% of Chime group profit.
He said that "significant" progress has been made on the deal with "main terms" now agreed.
"The terms of this transaction have been agreed and are based on 2011 profits," added Bell. "Its completion remains subject to the finalising of financing arrangements and the completion of due diligence."
Bell, who is leading the PR asset buyout along with the Bell Pottinger co-founder Piers Pottinger and a number of other senior managers, said that it is expected that an agreement will be signed before the end of May.
A shareholder meeting will take place in mid-June with completion of the deal, which would see Chime retain a 25% stake in the new venture, expected by the end of June.
The management buyout involves the businesses Bell Pottinger Sans Frontières, Bell Pottinger Public Relations, Bell Pottinger Middle East, Bell Pottinger Public Affairs, and Chime's 60% and the 40% management stake in Pelham Bell Pottinger.
Sir Martin Sorrell, who owns just over 20% of Chime through his company, WPP, has been vocal in his criticism of the proposed buyout. He argues that it sets a bad precedent and that "if it is a good deal for Tim it is a bad deal for Chime".
Chime said: "If the MBO is completed, Chime will reinvest the proceeds in sectors of the market which are expected to show good growth and in the divisions where we have strong positions.
"The group is pursuing a transition strategy from being a diversified group with an emphasis on public relations to being a communications and sports marketing business."
Bell said Chime's sports marketing division, which it has bolstered with acquisitions worth tens of millions of pounds, has seen income growth of more than 50% in the year to 9 May thanks to the forthcoming London Olympic and Paralympic Games.
"This division is continuing to show strong growth and is set to benefit from the first contribution from the recently announced acquisitions," said Bell. "Given the profit decline in public relations and a rebalancing of sports marketing profits caused by the Olympics, group profits will be second-half weighted."
Chime's advertising agency, VCCP, which handles accounts including Comparethemarket.com, Coors and easyJet, has seen 10% income growth to 9 May.
Chime is currently facing questions from the easyJet founder, Stelios Haji-Ioannou, about the group's acquisition of a consultancy which handled the airline's £50m ad pitch, six months after the advertising account was awarded to Chime subsidiary VCCP.

Does your business have a bad reputation?
Fix it the right way.
Corporate Advocacy Program™
See the following. This is for BOSSSERVICES.ORG carpet cleaning company. A very bad experience and they even didn't call back and were very bossy in talking.
The tech person who was about to come that day, he has to leave for his next appointment and will do all the job in 30 mins (he called earlier in the day) and I checked with Boss and they said, he dont have any appointment for that day. He came finally (2nd time, first time nobody from BOSS team/tech carpet contractor/person showed/called me up) and ran off (without even saying a word) when I asked what's 30 day guarantee thing.. he was very unprofessional. OTHER things, I called BOSS company same evening, one of the representative told me that I have to pay for the new/next Tech person's visit (I thought in my mind, what the heck)!!!!!!
BOSS person forgot that it was not my fault when first time boss person didn't show up (as they had my wrong contact#) and next time the one (carpet cleaning person) who came just ran away after listening 30 day warranty thing. BOSS person gave me 3 different quotes whenever i spoke to a different person and when I said the other person promissed me this quote, they said he's don't know anything and im his BOSS so whatever she's was saying (the boss lady), i have to listen; and that seems very unprofessional as well. I even don't think that BOSS team have their own tech persons, they just call some bogus/3rd party cheap carpet cleaners and send it to your home................
Finally i thought I SHOULD NOT USE THEIR Service and let others know about their clever cheat tricks how they make fool of customers very easily. Don't worry. Im not pissed but I'm not HAPPY either with what BOSS said, they will do and what their site reflects online about their services.
See the chat with boss person first that confirs that he didn't had any appointment that day after my appointment. ..............

When Council convenes for its second-to-last session for the year tomorrow, all eyes will be on Council President Darrell Clarke, who faces his most direct public challenge since he took leadership of the city's legislative body.
The challenge is this: The President has spent the better part of a year pledging support for a land bank bill that he did not, apparently, want to pass as written. And after a year of keeping his own cards close to his vest, on Thursday he'll very likely have to show his hand.
Until recently, Clarke appeared to wholeheartedly support the land bank bill, sponsored by 7th District Councilwoman Maria Quinones-Sanchez, and which Clarke signed on as a co-sponsor.
At a national conference on reclaiming vacant land in September, Clarke invited applause for Sanchez's work on the land bank and thanked land bank supporters for "continuing to push … until we get that land bank legislation passed."
But with just two sessions left before Council recesses — just enough time, that is, to pass any amendments on a first and second reading — the Council President's attitude towards the land bank has grown considerably more chilly than when he addressed that crowd.
And now the Council President is facing the increasingly tricky task of explaining why he is spending so much energy rewriting a bill he'd always said he supported.
Indeed, while Clarke had referred to "outstanding issues," in the past, the Council President gave no public indication that his support had wavered until the bill appeared, much to the surprise of some observers, on the calendar for a hearing in Council's Committee on Public Property and Public Works.
How exactly that happened remains the subject of speculation: hearings are ultimately approved by the Council President, and when advocates for the bill began demanding a hearing last spring, it was Clarke, not Sanchez, who was seen as standing in the way. (Clarke acknowledged this role to PlanPhilly in May, saying he preferred to wait until fall to take up the issue).
Widespread rumor has it that the committee's Chairman, 6th District Councilman Bobby Henon, either didn't ask the president or misunderstood him when his office put in a request for a hearing. Clarke's office denies this, and Henon declined a request for comment.
Whatever the case, once the hearing was scheduled, Clarke's office was suddenly busy preparing various amendments to the eight-month-old bill— including amendments that the bill's main sponsor, Sanchez, has called "deal breakers."
And even those amendments emerged toward the end of the committee hearing —only after it seemed that Committee Chair Bobby Henon intended to put the bill to a vote. Had Henon held the bill in committee, land bank supporters would presumably have begun to focus their impatience on him.
When they did appear, Clarke's amendments were circulated and approved so quickly that reporters didn't see copies until after they were inserted.
Subsequent amendments have made it even less clear where, exactly, the Council President stands on the land bank itself.
The issue at stake is how much and what form of power Council will have over the land bank's ability to acquire and sell land. Currently, Council members have to approve every sale of public land by the city because the transaction must be approved in the form of a resolution introduced by the District Council member and, by practice, approved unanimously in Council when introduced. In effect, this gives a district council member the power to put a hold on a sale by simply not introducing the resolution.
Sanchez' bill took out resolutions and gave Council oversight in the form of a re-constituted Vacant Property Review Committee, which is currently composed of representatives of different city agencies and led by a chairman appointed by the Council President. As critics of the current system point out, the Council President currently has a great deal of power over what does and does not appear on the agenda.
Sanchez wanted that committee re-organized so that it would effectively give each district Council member the same approval power as a resolution, but also force each Council member to be answerable to his or her decisions.
Clarke's amendments not only re-introduced the resolution requirement, but maintained the current VPRC structure, and with it his own proxy chairmanship.
The changes were anathema to land bank's supporters, but even so, they seemed willing to lose the battle to win the war: getting Council to pass the land bank before it recesses for the year.
But then, as we reported, Clarke began circulating several more amendments late in the afternoon on Thanksgiving Eve, which not only preserved his own proxy chairmanship of the VPRC but required Council members to approve not only the sale, but also the acquisition of every piece of land by the land bank — a proposal which land bank supporters had specifically cited before as a deal-breaker.
Whether Clarke will push for those amendments, whether they're a bargaining chip to negotiate the previous round of amendments, and whether, ultimately Councilwoman Maria Quinones-Sanchez will be calling some version of a land bank bill up for a vote on Thursday are all uncertain.
But what will inevitably become more clear on Thursday is where, after all this, the Council President really stands — and whether, when he says he supports a land bank, he really means it.

Dave Grohl and Beck paid tribute to David Bowie at a pre-Grammy party on Sunday night (February 14).
Beck took lead vocals while Dave played the drums and was joined by his fellow surviving Nirvana members Pat Smear on the guitar and Krist Novoselic on bass guitar.
Celebrating their success, Kat Dennings and Beth Behrs were in great spirits as they made their big arrival at the 2015 People's Choice Awards tonight (January 7) in Los Angeles.
Though she usually takes on more of a comedic role, Kat Dennings shows her impressive range in the new preview trailer for "To Write Love on Her Arms." The "2 Broke Girls" star joins Rupert Friend, Corbin Bleu and Chad Michael Murray in the project, a true story from director Nathan Frankowski.
Adding another project to her resume, Kim Kardashian had a quick guest spot on "2 Broke Girls" during which she played herself.
In the newly-released clip, the "Keeping Up with the Kardashians" star shows up at Kat Dennings and Beth Behrs' cupcake shop to apologize for not using the location to shoot her reality show.
It's always a fun time with Kat Dennings is around, and Ellen DeGeneres experienced the pure joy of her presence this afternoon (October 21).
The "2 Broke Girls" babe stopped by the set of the comedienne's show to chat about her hit CBS series and revealed what it was like working with guest star Kim Kardashian.
He's caused mass swooning around the globe with his silky smooth voice but nowadays Josh Groban is singing a song of love for one special lady.
While chatting with Entertainment Tonight on Saturday night (October 11) at the Mercedes-Benz Carousel of Hope Ball, the "To Where You Are" crooner confirmed he's romantically involved with Kat Dennings, his companion for the evening.
He certainly has plenty to sing about these days, as Josh Groban is reportedly dating Kat Dennings.
According to E! News, the "Brave" singer has been seeing the "2 Broke Girls" star as of late and they made their public debut as a couple at the Carousel of Hope Ball in Beverly Hills over the weekend.
It's a day of celebration and remembrance in the USA and today (May 26) even celebrities are giving it up for our troops for the Memorial Day holiday.
The Twitterverse is chock full of encouraging messages from various famous folks, giving thanks for freedom as well as the men and women who have fought to keep us safe.

Hi SkyPilot and TiPilot,
I'm happy to step in here and escalate both of you to your regional Customer Service Managers. Give me some specifics in a PM, including VIN, mileage, preferred servicing dealer, and a daytime phone number. I'll make sure someone reaches out to you pronto.
I've worked with my CSM. I've worked with two dealers. It's been brought up every time the car's been in since I purchased it in January.
My new dealer (the second one) is great. Can't fault them. I intend on bringing up the new possibility of the heat shield being the culprit the next time the car's in. I'm just sick and tired of spending my time and money (it's 50 miles r/t) hauling this car to the dealer every couple weeks!
Dealer visits to date:
1/26 - car kept overnight (no loaner)
1/30 - car kept overnight (no loaner)
3/26 - car kept 10 days (only provided loaner for one day)
6/21 - car kept 2 days (no loaner)
7/?? - service completed while waiting
8/2 - service completed while waiting
8/17 - service completed while waiting
8/30 - car kept overnight (loaner provided)
So that's 8 trips in 8 months of owning the car, and I think I'm forgetting at least one trip. Not to mention 14 days the car was out of my possession - with a loaner provided for only two of them.
