BIRMINGHAM, Alabama - As a native of Wales, Elinor Kirk has been to the other Birmingham, the one in England.
And she knows how varied the two are.
"It's a bit different from here," said Kirk, a graduate student at UAB. "Not quite as humid."
Kirk is a distance runner on the Blazers track team. She's hoping that her training in Birmingham, Ala., will serve her well this week as she competes in 5K and 10K events at the NCAA Division I Men's and Women's Outdoor Track and Field Championships held Wednesday through Saturday in Eugene, Oregon.
Another Blazer,Elinor Kirk and UAB assistant track and field coach Tony Houchin talk about her reaching out to the UAB about her continuing her career with the Blazers. She also talks about the difference between college sports here and in the United Kingdom. (Solomon Crenshaw firstname.lastname@example.com)
"Hopefully in Eugene it will be a lot cooler so training in the heat will be good preparation for going out there," Kirk said. "It'll be a lot nicer out there for sure."
This is Kirk's second straight year to qualify for the national championships. She's hoping to fare better this time.
"The race didn't go as well as I wanted but I think just running with some great girls, seeing how it's all set up will be great preparation," she said. "I know what to expect this time 'round. It was a bit of the unknown. I think the pressure got to me a bit. It's such a big stage and it's the first time I had run in such a high caliber competition. I think this time around, I'll be a bit less nervous and a bit more prepared. I'll know what to expect."
She also benefits from having Tisher as a teammate and roommate.
"Neal is such a great girl," Kirk said. "She's always been relaxed before events so I think the fact that she is so relaxed helps me be a bit less nervous. We're a good team."
Kirk's journey to Birmingham, Ala., came about from an old relationship, when current UAB assistant track coach Tony Houchin was in Las Vegas.
"Tony recruited me as an undergrad at UNLV but at that point I was going to go to a university at home," she said. "After my degree was coming to an end at home, I was thinking I wasn't really ready to enter the real world. I got in touch with Tony to see if there were opportunities to come over as a grad student. That's how I ended up at UAB."
And she's become a stronger performer than she had been.
"If someone would have told me that two years down the road I'd competing at this level, I probably would have laughed and not really believed them," the runner said. "Sometimes when I think about it, it does blow my mind. It makes me really grateful to have the opportunity to come to UAB and train with a great group of girls and Tony is a great coach. I've had such a great time here and hopefully I'll end it well at nationals."
The grad student's initial focus is on the 10K, the first of her two events.
"I'll give it everything I've got in that one and then hopefully recover well in the day off," she said. "I'll see what I have left for the 5K. Whatever I've got left, I'll give in the 5K.
"I think there's quite a few girls doing the double. There will be quite a few girls who have the 10K in their legs."Sports Opinion Scarbinsky: Gus Malzahn s massive new buyout shows Auburn hasn t learned from past mistakes

See these excellent analyses by colleagues Sarah Rotman Epps and Dave Johnson on the Surface.
I can totally understand why the Windows team wants its own tablet. After all, Apple has been running away with the most important device category since, well, the touchscreen smartphone, for years while Microsoft and its OEM partners have been watching glumly from the sidelines. Actually, Microsoft has been developing Windows 8 and Windows RT to compete, so not just watching glumly, building product, actually. But OEM partners like Samsung and ASUS have been developing tablets on Android, not Windows.
Along comes Microsoft Surface, a tablet aimed at "work and play." So why does Microsoft feel the need to compete with its most important partners? Three reasons that CIOs should tune into:
Posted by Ted Schadler on June 11, 2012
CEO Tim Cook opened Apple's worldwide developer conference 2012 this morning in San Francisco. The event sold out the Moscone West venue in 90 minutes, a clear indication that Apple's star is still rising rapidly. (Developers are the first to smell a slowdown in momentum and so are a good indicator of the future.)
Here are my quick impressions of what Apple's announcements mean for developers, hence for CIOs and the IT organization.
Posted by Ted Schadler on June 5, 2012
Google just bought QuickOffice. I think that means they now get the App Internet and are moving beyond pure Web.
The App Internet is the future of software architecture and the foundation of how people get stuff on their mobile devices (we call that mobile engagement). The App Internet means native (or hybrid HTML5) apps on mobile and desktop devices that use the Internet to get services. It's the native app that makes the user experience good. It's the Internet that makes the user experience relevant to life.
Google has been "pure Web," meaning that they don't want native apps on any device. Of course, they've been moving slowly away from that pure architecture for years now even as its marketing rhetoric has denied it. Remember that when iPhone shipped in 2007 it had a native Google app called Maps on it. And they have readers on their Android devices.
In the meantime, QuickOffice has been growing handily because it gets the App Internet -- any device, anywhere, anytime using a native app. If you want to read or edit Microsoft Office formats on your iPad or Android phone or whatever, you can do it with QuickOffice. That has led consumers and information workers and sometimes entire enterprises (in the case of one life sciences company with 15,000 iPads deployed, for example) to use QuickOffice to access and edit the critical documents they need on their tablets.
What does this mean?

More Contactless Testing for Transit in NY/NJ
The Port Authority of New York and New Jersey has announced it will "partner with NJ TRANSIT to undertake an eight-month pilot test that will allow customers to use contactless bank cards, key fobs, cell phones and other devices to pay for transit. The test will help determine if customers could ultimately use these devices to pay fares on all of the region's transit systems, including New York City's subways and buses." Contactless payment will be available exclusively to MasterCard PayPass customers during the initial two months of the test and to other bank-issued contactless card customers for the balance of the test period.READ MORE »

Gqs.donedrive.net Popup Description
Browser hijackers, (Potentially Unwanted Programs) PUPs and adware are among the most common computer threats nowadays. These threats are not as harmful as, for example, a Trojan, but despite this fact they still aren't something that you want on your computer. Applications that are considered to fall into one of the categories above may display annoying pop-ups, advertisements and sponsored links whose sole purpose is to generate revenue for 3rd-parties. If this software remains on your computer, its actions may also include gathering details regarding your browsing habits such as search queries, websites you visit, and other data that will be delivered to 3rd-parties for marketing purposes.
A pertinent example of a domain name that the developers of this type of software use for their purposes is gqs.donedrive.net, a gateway that adware & browser hijackers developers use to analyze and identify traffic from infected systems, as well as to host the pop-ups related to gqs.donedrive.net. Although gqs.donedrive.net isn't a threat itself, its presence on your system may mean that your machine is housing a browser hijacker or an adware infection.
What should You Look out For?
Browser hijacker or adware infections aren't easy to prevent because these types of PC threats are often installed with the user's content. However, the fact that your favorite anti-virus software may ignore this software doesn't mean that you shouldn't do something about it. Naturally, the first step you need to take is to find out if your computer is infected with adware or browser hijacker that may be related to gqs.donedrive.net pop-ups:
- Does your browser redirect you to websites that you didn't plan on visiting?
- Do you see unrelated advertisements and sponsored links on websites or in your search results?
- Has your default search engine been changed recently?
- Has your homepage been changed?
- Does your Web browser spawn random pop-ups containing advertisement and affiliate links?
- Was a new toolbar added to your browser without your knowing?
Any one of these symptoms is a signal that you should be cautious because your machine may be contaminated with some type of adware or browser hijacker. Thankfully, gqs.donedrive.net pop-ups are nothing more than a low-level threat, so you shouldn't be too worried about your system's health. Software that is related with the gqs.donedrive.net domain is rarely threatening, but it can be annoying because it may hijack your browser and change the way your web browser works and performs drastically.
Which is the Best Protection Module against this Low-level Threat?
The answer is short and simple – your mind is the best protection against threats related to gqs.donedrive.net pop-ups. These low-level computer threats usually come bundled with other software such as toolbars & freeware, so you should be extra careful when installing free software or when downloading applications from untrusted sources such as peer-to-peer websites that contain pirated software.
It is worth mentioning that adware and browser hijackers often come bundled with software such as free codec packs, free media players, PDF readers and video/audio converters. So far there hasn't been a confirmation on the names of software that may come bundled with threats related to gqs.donedrive.net, but there are reports of download managers that ask to install 3rd-party software associated to gqs.donedrive.net pop-ups, so pay extra attention when downloading software from untrusted sites that offer to use their download manager. Some things to look out for during installation are:
- 'I Accept' buttons –read what you are accepting carefully.
- Large number of checkboxes – know what the text next to every checkbox sees. You may be asked knowingly to install 3rd-party software that could contain one of the low-level threats we've been talking about.
- Additional installation screens – if you see a new setup wizard appearing at any stage of the installation, be extra cautious because it may ask you to install 3rd-party applications.
Adware and browser hijackers related with gqs.donedrive.net can turn out to be quite annoying, so the computer user should take the necessary measures to remove these low-level threats from your system as soon as you can.

Gunnar Borg
Most of my time I devote to research and applications in psychologym, medicine, sports, ergonomics and human factors.
The research deals with theories, methods and experiments in perception and psychophysics, and psychophysiology. New methods are developed to determine the magnitude of an experience from simple sensations to more complex experiences such as subjective somatic symptoms, emotions and perceptions of physical and mental difficulty.
The concept of perceived exertion was introduced half a century ago and an operational definition presented with methods to measure different aspects of perceived effort, strain and fatigue. One very common method is the RPE-Scale for "Ratings of Perceived Exertion" ("the Borg Scale") officially now: the "Borg RPE Scale®". Stevens' Ratio (R) scaling methods for determinations of S-R-functions have been improved in order not only to obtain relative functions but also direct ("absolute") levels of intensity. This was done by placing verbal anchors, from simple category (C) scales (rank order scales) such as "very weak", "moderate", "strong" etc at the best possible position on a ratio scale, a "CR-scale", covering the total subjective dynamic range, so that a congruence in meaning was obtained between the numbers and the anchors.
Psychophysical scaling methods are also used in quantitative semantics, in order to estimate "interpretation" and "preciseness" of words, e.g. adjectives and adverbs. A related problem of epistemological interest concerns intersubjectivity and the possibility to make valid interindividual and intermodal comparisons. "Borg's Range Model" is then used, according to which a schematized conception (e.g. of a maximal perceived exertion) is used, and at the end of the total dynamic range set interindividually "equal" (similar) for proximal stimulations.
The first CR-Scale constructed in the 1970s is the ten-graded "Borg CR10 Scale®" with ten as the main intersubjectively valid anchor. The scale gives possibilities to use numbers above ten, and also to use decimals. It is a general scale for different kinds of experiences. A more fine-graded CR-Scale is the "Borg CR100 Scale®" (also called the "centiMax Scale") constructed by G. Borg together with the daughter Elisabet Borg, PhD and senior lecturer, Stockholm University. This scale has a great potential for most psychophysical and psychophysiological determinations.
A current research project together with some specialists in medicine (prof. K. Larsson, Karolinska Inst. head of the project) concern studies of breathlessness and dyspnea, leg fatigue and chest pain in healthy people and patients with COPD. CR-scaling is then used for determinations of the magnitudes of these symptoms during ergometer tests, how they change during the test and their quantitative interrelations. The purpose is to obtain an improved tool in clinical diagnostics and rehabilitation.
A simple home test of aerobic capacity has been constructed. The test is carried out by having persons run or walk a certain distance about 800m (or half a mile) submaximally two times with different speed controlled by themselves subjectively. No special apparatuses are needed except a watch. The test is a good alternative to the six minute walk test.
Applications of "Borg Scales" and "Borg Perception"
The research in scaling has resulted in an unusually great amount of world-wide applications of "Borg Scales". The Borg RPE Scale® for measuring overall perceived exertion, including breathlessness and muscle fatigue, is thus used by millions of people in very many countries all over the world. This is true in clinical work test, rehabilitation and exercise prescription of many different groups of patients (See Pedersén and Saltin, 2006, www.blackwell-synergy.com); in sports for all and training of athletes according to different programs for monitoring exercise intensity. The CR scales, e.g. the "Borg CR10 Scale®", are used more and more instead of the RPE-scale in clinical tests, and in training of muscular strength, "resistance training" (See Borg, 1998 and Buckley & Borg, 2010).

The CM said, "Water of our rivers is first for people of our state and then it can be used by other states. In chhatarpur there are dams which store large quantity of water but due to agreements executed by previous Congress government, the major portion of water is used by UP farmers. We will stop it in future and carry out canal irrigation projects."
The CM was in Chhatarpur to inaugurate various development and welfare projects, including Left Bariyarpur Canal Irrigation project which will irrigate 43,850 hectares.
The CM said, "Our vision is to make the state's farm sector as advanced and progressive as Punjab's by 2021. Land under irrigation was earlier only 43,000 hectares but now it is 1,85,000 hectares and till 2020 about 5 lakh hectare area will be under irrigation."

I absolutely love these products. I have a mobility issue that keeps me from washing my hair sometimes. Having greasy hair, I looked for a good alternative and found it with these products. It keeps my hair smelling nice and looking good between the times I can get assistance showering when my issue rears it head.
I absolutely love the smell of these and always get compliments on how I smell when I use them (I wear no perfume).
Only thing that keeps it from getting a full five stars is that recently the bottles have been clogging up on my small and large bottles of product - nothing a run under warm water doesn't fix, but its just annoying to have to deal with

Our big announcement on the Trump-Russia scandal.
Jon Hilsenrath of the Wall Street Journal apparently got a detailed briefing about the most recent meeting of the Federal Reserve, and he reports that there was a considerable amount of dissension about even the puny action they ended up taking. The Fed's technical staff had told them that their portfolio of mortgage-backed securities "was about to begin shrinking much more rapidly than anticipated," which would likely have a contractionary effect and should have rung alarm bells given the current parlous state of the economy. But Ben Bernanke's proposal to offset this enough merely to keep the Fed's balance sheet stable — not shrinking and not growing — met with a fair amount of resistance:
Fed governor Kevin Warsh [...] worried that a decision to reinvest mortgage proceeds into Treasurys would confuse investors and lead many to believe the Fed was paving the way to resume major purchases before it had decided to do so....Richard Fisher, president of the Dallas Fed, and others expressed a concern that Fed moves might be ineffective, arguing that businesses weren't using already ample, cheap credit to fund investments because they were uncertain about many other problems, including government deficits and new financial regulations.
Narayana Kocherlakota, president of the Minneapolis Fed, argued that a large part of today's unemployment problem is caused by issues the Fed can't solve, such as the mismatch between the skills of jobless workers and the skills that employers wanted....The president of the Philadelphia Fed, Charles Plosser, who has had misgivings before about Mr. Bernanke's initiatives, deemed the latest move premature because, though the Fed was lowering 2010 growth estimates, it wasn't significantly ramping down its estimates for growth in 2011 and beyond. Two other frequent dissenters, Thomas Hoenig of Kansas City, and Jeffrey Lacker of Richmond, Va., also objected. Fed governor Betsy Duke, a former commercial banker, also expressed reservations, according to participants.
This doesn't bode well. If Hilsenrath is right, it means that there are no more than two or three Fed governors who are currently in favor of more aggressive action as long as the economy doesn't go completely off the cliff. For the time being, then, we have a Fed that's plainly not going to do anything expansionary on the monetary side and a Republican Party that's hellbent on keeping anything from being done on the fiscal side. Lost decade, here we come.

You really captured the feel of the colors. Autumn Windows is perfect...
By popular demand, I have decided to stay with ....... Autumn Windows
All of your suggestions were much appreciated, and I almost switched.
However, it seemed that majority was ruling that Autumn Windows was the name for this quilt.
I think that for most people, with the squareness of the pattern, they will "get" the name!
All is ready to go .... label made and on, temporary hanging sleeve ... and then out the door early Saturday morning to the Show/Sale.
Thanks again! :)
Love the colors in this quilt! Kudos!
Handsome quilt. Autumn Windows works. I like /Autumn in Onterio also.
What a lovely quilt--simple design with pretty fabrics. When did you get this one finished. QE?
All the suggested names are great, but I like Autumn Trails the best. The fact that the fabrics blend so well to together with the stippling really lends itself to the "trails" part of Autumn Trails. Gorgeous quilt!
Beautiful quilt and I like the name also.
Great quilt and name! I also thought of Time for Fall.

Lunch box question
So I might be wrong here, and I might sound stupid but what exactly is the lunch box delete? Is it the back muffler in the back that is huge and ugly? And if I cut this off how loud will my car get? I really don't want my car to be annoying loud. Has anyone ever put a glass pack in place of it or has everyone just did the straight pipe? I wouldn't mind putting a glass pack there if it would sound good, but I really don't know much about 4cyl cars, I've always drove trucks. Oh and my car has the split port engine by the way. Let me know what u guys think is a good or bad idea and maybe some pictures?
Sent from my VS910 4G using FF Mobile
The lunchbox is the canister behind the tip cut it off and you get a mellow sounding exhaust
I like the way they sound after the box is gone IMO
Sent from jeremy's iPhone using FF Mobile
Okay, mostly I'm worried about the exhaust being annoying going down the highway, because I take a lot of trips.
Sent from my VS910 4G using FF Mobile
its not loud at all, very good sounding
also, i added a 2 inch diameter out the back to fill the void and it made it slightly more noticeable to just no lunch box. i think you will like the results of this mod, plus its free!!
Moved to the MK1 section
Yeah I'm going to go ahead and do this mod, first I have to wait for my income taxes so I can get new tires checked off of my list of things to do.
Sent from my VS910 4G using FF Mobile
how do you guys get so much money back in taxes!? i wish we did...
Plenty of exhaust videos here, sure there is one with a lunch box delete
And the how to here
I personally wouldnt bother, its just going to make noise and not help your car in anyway. I wouldnt spend my time doing this mod, the return isnt worth my time. Of course, you are free to do what you like, your car and time. If you enjoy spending the time on this sort of thing, by all means go for it [:)] My two cents would be to start saving for a proper, 2.5" flex pipe back system.

As NewsBuster Matt Sheffield reported Tuesday, the Senate Committee on Environment & Public Works held a hearing Wednesday to discuss the media's role in causing global warming hysteria in the country. The committee's website encapsulated the proceedings (emphasis mine throughout):
Sen. James Inhofe (R-Okla.), Chairman of the Environment & Public Works Committee, said today's hearing about the media and climate change revealed that "Scare tactics should not drive public policy." The hearing's purpose was to examine the media's presentation of climate science and featured scientists and media experts.
"As the Democrats rush to pass costly carbon cap legislation in the next Congress, today's hearing showed that the so-called 'scientific consensus' does not exist. Leading scientists from the U.S. and Australia denounced much of the media for becoming advocates for alarmism rather than objectivity." Senator James Inhofe said.
The press release continued:
"I was particularly interested in testimony by Dr. Daniel Schrag of Harvard University, who believes that manmade emissions are driving global warming. Dr. Schrag said the Kyoto Protocol is not the right approach to take and agreed it would have almost no impact on the climate even if all the nations fully complied," Inhofe added. Currently 13 of the 15 EU nations are failing to meet the requirements of Kyoto.
During his opening remarks, Senator Inhofe stated, "Rather than focus on the hard science of global warming, the media has instead become advocates for hyping scientifically unfounded climate alarmism." Senator Inhofe cited criticism from believers in manmade global warming who have slammed the media for presenting "a quasi-religious register of doom, death [and] judgment" and compared the media's coverage to the "unreality of Hollywood films."
Many scientists were brought to the meeting to share their wisdom:
Scientists testifying at the hearing described how much of the media has over-hyped the coverage of global warming and used scare tactics to garner public attention. Paleoclimate researcher Bob Carter of Australia's James Cook University, who has had over 100 papers published refereed scientific journals, noted that "there is huge uncertainly in every aspect of climate change."
"If you look at the ice core records, you will discover that yes, changes in carbon dioxide are accompanied by changes in temperature, but you will also discover that the change in temperature precedes the change in carbon dioxide by several hundred years to a thousand or so years. Reflect on that. And reflect on when you last heard somebody say that they thought lung cancer caused smoking. Because that is what you are arguing if you argue on the glacial time scale that changes in carbon dioxide cause temperature changes. It is the other way around," Carter testified.
Carter elaborated:
Carter also noted that the media promotes "Couldism, mightism and perhapsism, fueled by computer modeling."
Carter explained, "If, could, may, might, probably, perhaps, likely, expected, projected ...Wonderful words. So wonderful, in fact, that environmental writers scatter them through their articles on climate change like confetti. The reason is that – in the absence of empirical evidence for damaging human-caused climate change – public attention is best captured by making assertions about "possible" change. And, of course, using the output of computer models in support, virtually any type of climatic hazard can be asserted as a possible future change."
There were other speakers asked to give evidence, including someone from the Media Research Center:
David Deming, a geophysicist from the University of Oklahoma, testified that "Every natural disaster that occurs is now linked [by the media] with global warming, no matter how tenuous or impossible the connection. As a result, the public has become vastly misinformed on this and other environmental issues."
Dan Gainor of the Business & Media Institute noted that reporters are violating their own code of ethics with their one-sided climate coverage. "It also violates the ethical code of the Society of Professional Journalists which urges the media to 'Support the open exchange of views, even views they find repugnant.' That code calls for reporters to "distinguish between advocacy and news reporting.'" Gainor added.
Touché, Dan.

Phew! No dog brains on Andy.... we continued to Leffingswell Landing near Cambria. Apparently, it is a great spot to watch sea otters and migrating whales. Once again, it was pretty pointless without binoculars. Nevertheless, the beach is one with ragged rocks, and we enjoyed just hanging out, watching and listening to the waves crash in.
We'd planned to stay and wait for sunset, but it didn't look as if we were in for a good sunset as it was pretty cloudy. So we decided to make our way to the campground in Morro Bay, and perhaps try for a sunset there.

Author: Greg Cohen/Thursday, September 4, 2014/Categories: United States Coin of the Week
A wonderful 1794 Sheldon-29 large cent, graded MS-65 BN by NGC is among the highlights of our upcoming October 79th Anniversary Sale, being held in conjunction with the PNG Invitational Convention in New York City.
This cent displays quite bold overall definition, with exquisite, hard satiny surfaces with dominant orange-brown patina. More direct angles also call forth vivid undertones of golden-brown iridescence that enhance the strong eye appeal. This coin was struck from a late state of this die marriage, with myriad fine cracks on the obverse and a bolder reverse crack from the border at the letter R in AMERICA. Even so, the definition is razor sharp throughout with all devices nicely rendered down to the most minor details.
This lovely Gem example of the Sheldon-29 variety is among the finest known; indeed, the Breen Condition Census reports coins graded MS-61 to EF-40, while the 2011 Copper Quotes by Robinson (CQR) lists the census as 60-60-55-55-50+-45. While listed as a Rarity-2 variety, in higher grade, this coin is clearly a scarcity. Certified as Mint State, it is quite rare, and although it is generally conceded that there's a difference between EAC grading standards and those of third-party certification services, nonetheless the above information strongly affirms that high-grade pieces are extremely elusive.
If you are a collector of early U.S. federal coinage, then make sure you attend our 79th Anniversary Sale! With this lovely Gem large cent, the 1796 half dollar and other early type coins from the Collection of a New York Dentist and other important consignors, there will be coins of interest for everyone. To request a catalog please contact our auction services department. If you are interested in selling coins in one of our upcoming auctions, please contact one of our consignment directors. We are accepting consignments until September 8 for our Official Auction of the Whitman Coin & Collectibles Baltimore Expo at the end of October.

Ripoff Report
Preston FordPreston, Maryland USA
Preston Ford Preston Motors Good price but deceptive sales practices and no after sale customer service Preston Maryland
Does your business have a bad reputation?
Fix it the right way.
Corporate Advocacy Program™
Test drove a 2006 Jeep Wrangler on 10-03-2013, Was on my motorcycle riding at the time and stopped in based on an online ad.
It seemed to drive OK, so we haggled a little and I thought about it and all the supposed benefits they were offering such as a lifetime engine warranty which they told me was good as long as I kept servicing it at their dealership.
I called the to let them know I wanted it and had cash so we made the deal and they delivered it to me as promised.
There were a lot of papers to sign, some relating to the sale, the warranty and other legal stuff. I guess I should have spent an hour reading every letter but who does that?
Well, turns out the small print in the lifetime engine warranty they used to persuade me to buy the Jeep is not valid for this vehicle. Along with many specific vehicles listed that are not covered, it clearly states that any vehicle which is "more than 6 calendar years old or with more than 100,000 miles on the odometer at the time of delivery" are not covered.
OK maybe my mistake not reading every word in this document, but it seems fraudulent to me that they would push this and get you to sign it if the vehicle is not covered in the first place.
I emailed the salesperson about this and all they did was reply saying "you should be covered as the Wrangler has less than 100,000 miles".
I am not a lawyer but know enough about written contracts to know that him saying this in an email does not override what it says in the original contract.
Then after I had some time to check the vehicle out I found that the CD player does not work. Again I emailed the salesperson if they would fix this or not and he was on vacation so asked me to remind him at a later date. I did send an email when he was back and he replied that he would look into it and get back to me.
I told him that I was sorry but I don't happen to carry CDs with me at all time in case I am going to test drive a vehicle. I guess I could have spent a day checking out every feature on the vehicle to see if it worked or not, but that is not the usual test drive... there is a cerain amount of trust here.
It's been weeks and nobody has even had the courtesy to tell me yes or no about whether they will do anything about this or not, including their service department who said I have to take it up with the salesman.
So if you are considering a purchase from them be aware once they get their money they could care less, so examine all the paperwork carefully and check every tiny thing in the vehicle before you buy.
I did tell them I wasn't about to bother with this or spend any more time trying to get them to do anything but would post negative reviews online to help make others aware.

SUBMITTED: Friday, December 20, 2013POSTED: Friday, December 20, 2013
I appreciate the info, I am pretty sure they are aware they are doing this. part of the Engine Warranty requires that you have all your service done by them so in addition to them using it as a selling point they also coerce people to use their service department.
I don't really think in this case I am "at fault" for not reading the fine print of the contract... based on it's contents they should have not presented it to me.
However I don't think I will persue it any further (although it may be fraud) aside from having written lots of negative reviews online. I would have considered having my service done there even though they are kind of far from me and I have a good local mechanic.
Crappy way to do business though...
Are you an owner, employee or ex-employee with either negative or positive information about the company or individual, or can you provide "insider information" on this company?
#2 Consumer Comment
You are right about how contracts read...
SUBMITTED: Friday, December 20, 2013POSTED: Friday, December 20, 2013
See if you can get your money back on the warranty because you are absolutely right about how the contract will be construed regarding the 'not more than100,000 miles OR not more than 6 years'. After all, the warranty company is the one that covers (or NOT) the repair. The warranty company is not going to pay a repair if your vehicle is more than 6 years old if that is a condition written right into the warranty agreement.
It might be too late now, but it is worth trying to get your money back on the warranty. There is a very good chance that the dealership kept the funds and didn't even pay the warranty company the portion for which they were due on the sale of the warranty (after all, your vehicle doesn't qualify). Follow up immediately with the warranty company to see if the dealer even processed the warranty contract. If they have, get your money back from the warranty company. If not then get the warranty money back from the dealership. IMO it sounds like they knowingly sold you a warranty that doesn't cover your vehicle.
File every kind of online complaint you can. Look up your states DMV to see who else you can file complaints to regarding the inclusion of this fake warranty. Good luck. Thanks for the warning of this dealership scam.
Are you an owner, employee or ex-employee with either negative or positive information about the company or individual, or can you provide "insider information" on this company?

I definitely believe recovery is possible. I know it is possible. Just yesterday my client reported "I never knew if I could be free but now I am." She was referring to her past eating disorder and speaking about the freedom of the eating disorder talk and thoughts that used to consume her mentally. Unfortunately, not everyone recovers, but the possibility is there.
Meredith Stokke MC, LPC, NCC shares her feeling about recovery on her blog Food For Thought, http://www.meredithstokkencc.blogspot.com/. I highly suggest reading her post on recovery. She presents an open and honest answer.

Building: Masrah Al Qasba Theater
Architect: magma architecture
Location: Sharjah, United Arab Emirates
Why We Like This:
A design intended to celebrate both the rich history of the Emirate of Sharjah as well as its cultural future, the Masrah Al Qasba Theatre takes inspiration from the surrounding open air desert landscapes to shape the dramatic interiors. The textile wrap that covers the walls and ceiling of the theater pays respect to the traditional building materials of the region, folded in undulating surfaces that evoke "images of evening sun streaking sand dunes". The lighting within the space was designed to accentuate the curvature of the shapes while also providing proper illumination of the performance space. Read the complete project description here.

VU meter arduino project help
Hello, I have been trying to finish the VU meter project found in the 30 arduino projects for the evil genius book.
I have followed it to the best of my abilities, but for some reason it is not working.
The VU meter only lights up when I blow hard into the microphone or play loud music from my phone directly overtop, and even then it doesnt seem to be very in sync with the music. Its as if it refreshes only every half second.
When there is no noise at all, the VU meter sits at the first bar, and even stays there when I shout from a distance.
-here is the project from the book: http://i50.tinypic.com/23k3gy1.png
- here is the code copied from the book:
int ledPins[] = {3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 12};
int switchPin = 2;
int soundPin = 0;
boolean showPeak = false;
int peakValue = 0;
void setup()
for (int i = 0; i < 10; i++)
pinMode(ledPins[i], OUTPUT);
pinMode(switchPin, INPUT);
void loop()
if (digitalRead(switchPin))
showPeak = ! showPeak;
peakValue = 0;
delay(200); // debounce switch
int value = analogRead(soundPin);
int topLED = map(value, 0, 1023, 0, 11) - 1;
if (topLED > peakValue)
peakValue = topLED;
for (int i = 0; i < 10; i++)
digitalWrite(ledPins[i], (i <= topLED || (showPeak && i == peakValue)));
here is a overhead view of my circuit: http://i45.tinypic.com/2zfqu5s.jpg
side view: http://i49.tinypic.com/15ews35.jpg
computer screen: http://i46.tinypic.com/wukuf8.jpg
I printed out the values coming from the input of the mic, they hover around 140-150 no matter what, even if I tap the microphone. they only change when I blow into the mic or play loud music directly on top of it. And even then, they dont really go with the music... sometimes they go really low.
So I'm not sure what I did wrong, I followed the instructions as best as I could and I'm pretty sure I did everything right.
The transistor is a BC548-4 30v 100ma transistor, the cap is 10nf film rdl...
does anyone know where I went wrong?
test your a/d circuit with a simulator. a pot with one end to vcc, one end to gnd and wiper to the a/d arduino input pin. run your 'print' debug program and vary the pot from end to end. do you read values? are they stable?
also, you should multiread and average to get better readings.
Check the voltage coming from the transistor to the input port #0 in the micro. Normally the input range for the A/D it is 0 to 5 volts and the micro will convert it to 0 to 1023 counts. So each count would be 5 / 1023 = .0049mv.
it turns out the diode was backwards. very strange since i thought the black line was the cathode on most diodes

National Drug Take Back Day this Saturday
Got drugs and don't want 'em? Don't worry, you can get rid of 'em.
On Saturday, April 27, its National Drug Take Back Day. From 10 a.m. to 2 p.m., the Seattle Police Department and Drug Enforcement Administration (DEA) will allow the public to rid their homes of potentially dangerous, expired, unused and unwanted prescription drugs. All of the precincts, including the North Precinct (10049 College Way N), will be accepting unwanted drugs -- completely free and anonymous, no questions asked.
Find out which one is closest by visiting SPD's precinct map page at http://www.seattle.gov/police/maps/precinct_map.htm and clicking on one of the precinct icons.
Last September was a huge success. Americans turned in 244 tons of prescription drugs at over 5,200 sites operated by the DEA and local law enforcement partners. So far, in the five previous events, the total has amounted to over 2 million pounds -- over a thousand tons -- of pills.
SPD says: "This initiative addresses a vital public safety and public health issue. Medicines that languish in home cabinets are highly susceptible to diversion, misuse, and abuse. Rates of prescription drug abuse in the U.S. are alarmingly high, as are the number of accidental poisonings and overdoses due to these drugs. Studies show that a majority of abused prescription drugs are obtained from family and friends, including from the family medicine cabinet. In addition, Americans are now advised that their usual methods for disposing of unused medications – flushing them down the toilet or throwing them in the trash – both pose potential safety and health hazards."

Beiersdorf Raises Profitability Forecast as Ebit Meets Estimates
Beiersdorf AG (BEI), the maker of Nivea skin cream, raised its annual profitability forecast after reporting second-quarter profit that matched analysts' estimates as sales rose in emerging markets.
The company now expects earnings before interest and taxes as a percentage of sales to be about 12 percent, higher than a previous forecast of between 11 percent and 12 percent. Adjusted Ebit rose to 192 million euros ($235 million) from 183 million euros in the year-earlier period, the Hamburg-based company said in a statement today. The average estimate of 11 analysts surveyed by Bloomberg was 191.5 million euros.
"We are on the right track with our moves to strengthen our brands and innovative capabilities as well as expanding our presence and impact on the emerging markets," Chief Executive Officer Stefan Heidenreich said in a statement today.
Beiersdorf, which gets almost 40 percent of revenue outside Europe, said revenue in the Americas gained 13 percent, while sales in Africa, Asia and Australia advanced 19 percent. German companies are tapping growth in emerging markets as the sovereign-debt crisis curbs demand in the euro area, where economic confidence is at a three-year low.
Sales dropped to 1.53 billion euros from 1.5 billion euros a year earlier, the company said. That missed the 1.55 billion- euro average estimate of 17 analysts. Beiersdorf expects sales growth of about 3 percent this year.

her) and the Galaef. No matter what they found, now, there was enough, without a doubt, to keep the
archaeologists and archaehistorians busy for years.
At that moment a red light began flashing over the distant doorway. A sign suddenly appeared on a large
readout screen in bright red letters—an awkward contrast in the blue room.
Ben knew what it said without reading it. "Sixty seconds to the end of hyperspace," he muttered to himself.
He had seen the sign many times in the past.
Mentally he began preparing himself for the feeling of nausea, which accompanied moving into or out of
hyperspace. It wasn't a pleasant feeling, but at least he wasn't among the many who had to take tranquilizers to
keep from going into convulsions.
The sign flashed again, "fifty seconds to the end of hyperspace."
Most psychiatrists agreed that part of it was a subconscious fear that caused the convulsions. The other part
was the momentary effect of weight loss on the fluid in the inner ear. The equilibrium didn't know which way
was up or down.
"Forty seconds to the end of hyperspace."
But the subconscious fear had to do with the number of ships which collided with another ship or with an
object in the path of the ship coming out of hyperspace. If another ship were in the outspace at the position that
they were coming out of hyperspace, if the pilot's sensitivity acuteness were dulled for some reason, if he was
not quick enough on the hyperspace switch, then the fatal explosion would occur killing everybody on board
both ships, no exceptions.
"Thirty seconds to the end of hyperspace."
It was for this reason that young adults from around the empire were carefully computer chosen to become
pilots. There is a certain quality of sensitivity needed to be a good pilot.
"Twenty seconds to the end of hyperspace."
If a pilot, using sound systems and direality screens, could detect that other ship, or any object in space, then
he would be able to switch back into hyperspace without a mishap.
"Ten seconds to the end of hyperspace."
Ben slipped a little white disnausia pill out of a pocket in his body suit. He put it in his mouth and took a big
slug of his drink.
The ship left hyperspace.
The feeling was upon him, like falling through space, spinning, reeling, turning. His stomach was floating.
He wanted to gag, but couldn't.
A moment later it was over.
For passengers like Ben the feeling of nausea lasted only a few moments, but for the chronics it could last up
to several hours.
He shifted his body in the chair finding a more comfortable position. He closed his eyes and let the music
seep through the little bit of remaining nausea.
He wondered what Lyil was doing. She was probably at her desk working, getting ready for more Thorne
interviews, which had become an inordinate amount lately. There were so many people from various planets
coming to see Thorne, it was as if he were having a convention of Thorne supporters. Both Mandril and Lyil
had expressed their concern, not only did it increase their workload considerably; it made them think that
Thorne was up to something. Keeping it a mystery he never told anyone why all these people were showing up.
And then there was the house in the Outer City occupied by people pretending to be Tarmorians, which had
been linked to Thorne.
If it weren't for all the failsafe systems guarding the Galaef to keep him from being dethroned, Ben would
have believed that Thorne was going to attempt to take over the Galactic Federation. But that was unthinkable.
Over the last one hundred thousand years voice recognition had been perfected, making it impossible for
someone to duplicate another person's voice, not even with a recording device. Among other failsafe systems,
if someone were to take over as the ruler they would have to convince the computer that they were the Galaef
and then . . . No, that wouldn't work either. It was simply impossible.
Ben started thinking about Lyil again. When this expedition was finished, . . .
"Professor Hillar?"
Ben opened his eyes and looked up. He saw a beautiful brunette standing over him. She had the largest
breasts on a slim, hard body that he had ever seen. He also noted the lieutenant's stripes on her sleeve.
"Yes?" he asked.

Home > National News > Article
If Australia's cricket chiefs really were unaware of the Howard Government's deep reservations about the proposed tour of Zimbabwe later this year, the only explanation is that somebody at Cricket Australia must be a bit hard of hearing.
Yesterday, Foreign Minister Alexander Downer cleared up any doubts, in plain language. It is the firmly held official view in Canberra that the tour should not proceed.
This is not just because of security risks to the touring party, important though these concerns are in a country where, sadly, political violence and muggings have become as much a part of the scenery as Victoria Falls.
There is another dimension, to which cricketing authorities cannot be oblivious. The appearance of the world's premier team in the troubled southern African nation might be seen to provide succour to Robert Mugabe's despicable regime. "It would send the wrong message," said Downer.
This has been the consistent position of the Howard Government for at least three years but it has neither the power nor intention to impose a decision on Cricket Australia.
Ever since Malcolm Fraser's failed attempts to force a boycott of the Moscow Olympics in 1980, governments have been sensitive to the backlash when sportsmen suspect they are being used as pawns in political games. Hence, the onus will be on Cricket Australia to make the call.
Even so, there are times when the use of moral persuasion can be justified. The sporting boycott of South Africa in the apartheid years was assuredly a case in point. Likewise, it can reasonably be argued, Mugabe's bullyboy regime should not be dignified by the presence of the Australians. Not when so many of its people are starving, due primarily to the disastrous famine induced by Mugabe's robber-baron policies of violent farm seizures. Not when the regime is using brute power to crush protests on the streets. Not when Mugabe's thugs adopt sledgehammer tactics to silence the free press. And not when opposition leader Morgan Tsvangirai is on trial for treason, which carries the death penalty.
The Australian team flew in and out of Bulawayo in the space of 24 hours during last year's World Cup to fulfil their obligation to play one of their matches in Zimbabwe. That was a major concession to pragmatism, placating those on the International Cricket Council insisting Zimbabwe must not be isolated. But a four-week tour, involving Tests and one-day internationals, is a very different proposition.
Quite apart from the question of player safety and the likelihood of the touring party spending most of their non-playing hours confined to hotels, a nagging fear should be the prospect of a perhaps unavoidable photo-opportunity of the world champions of cricket in the company of a beaming Mugabe. Australian cricket doesn't need that. Nor, more importantly, do the blighted people of Zimbabwe . . . cricket lovers or not.

Men's soccer wins HCAC season title
The men's soccer team completed an undefeated season in the Heartland Collegiate Athletic Conference, then fell to Earlham College in the semifinals of the conference tournament to finish with an overall record of 11-4-4 and an 8-0-1 mark in the HCAC. During the season, head coach Brandon Bowman notched his 150th win as a college coach.
|Senior midfielder Peter Mikhail was a first-team All-HCAC player.
It was the second straight year for the Pioneers to claim the regular-season title without losing a conference game. Their only blemish came in a two-overtime, scoreless tie at Defiance College. Transylvania played four of its last five conference games on the road, and clinched the season crown with a 1-0 win at Anderson University on a goal by sophomore midfielder Christian King.
The Pioneers edged out Rose-Hulman Institute of Technology, which finished at 8-1. The Engineers' lone loss came at the hands of Transylvania when the Pioneers visited Terre Haute, Ind., and came away with a 3-1 victory.
That gave Transylvania the No. 1 seed in the league tournament and the right to host Earlham on Thomas Field. After neither team could net the ball during regulation play and two 10-minute overtime periods, the Quakers won a shootout 4-2, along with the HCAC's automatic bid to the NCAA Division III championship. The Pioneers had been to the NCAA tournament the past two years and had played in the HCAC title game every year since 2002.
Sophomore back Evan Sizemore was named co-Defensive Player of the Year in the Heartland Conference. He anchored Transylvania's league-leading defense, which allowed just two goals in HCAC play and was the best conference team overall with 12 shutouts.
Sizemore was joined on the All-HCAC first team by seniors Peter Mikhail, Tony Spero, and King. Mikhail, a midfielder, tied for third-leading scorer on the team with 12 points (five goals and two assists), while Spero was fourth with 11 points (four goals and three assists). King led the Pioneers in goals with eight and added three assists to be the top scorer at 19 points.

NZX-listed Allied Farmers has been placed on a trading halt after it revealed a subsidiary has been served with a liquidation notice from Inland Revenue for $4.2 million.
Allied Farmers Rural has been in discussions with the tax department since February 25 when it received a demand notice for $3.7 million in outstanding debt.
A statement from the company, which acquired the assets of Hanover in 2009, said the liquidation notice had been filed on May 1 but it had not been advised of it.
"Allied Farmers Rural will be seeking legal advice to clarify the matter, but in the meantime continues its discussions with IRD."
The company said it remained hopeful of achieving a settlement with the Inland Revenue before the hearing on July 23, 2013.
The move is the latest in a series of financial woes for the company.
Allied survived a call on debt from an unnamed creditor earlier this year after it sold various loan assets with no book value for $100,000 upfront and potential for a further $500,000.
Last month it sold its Taranaki real estate unit for $472,500.
Allied Farmers Rural held assets worth $7.72 million and liabilities of $9.44 million as at December 31, according to the company's first-half report.
The division reported a first-half loss of $800,000, down from a loss of $1.5 million a year earlier and said it expects to be profitable in the second half, when it gets most of its earnings.
Allied Farmers is trying to rebuild itself after its disastrous acquisition of financial assets from Hanover and United Finance for $394 million in 2009.
It has ring-fenced what's left of the assets in its Allied Farmers Investments unit, which had assets of $25.7 million, according to its first-half accounts.
The shares were unchanged at 2.5 cents today, valuing Allied Farmers at just $2.27 million.

What can I say about President Obama that I, or anyone else whose eyes are even half-open, hasn't already said?
Sure I could go on about the economy that every shred of evidence says is heading in the wrong direction while Obama will tell you its moving the right way. All thanks to him and his administration's disastrous policies of course.
The country are moving in the right economic direction ONLY if his ultimate goal is to actually destroy the economy and turn the United States into an EU PIGS type of nation.
A socialist state where there is no drive, ambition or innovation and where the people are dependent on the government for everything.
That thought has of course crossed my mind in the vein of the Manchurian Candidate turned Manchurian President.
As bad as he is on the economic front, Obama may even be worse when it comes to working on national security and foreign policy matters!
What national security and foreign policy matters is the President working on you might ask?
Judging from what I have seen they are, among other things:
- Trying to destroy the county's superpower status, schmoozing
- Alienating our friends while with our enemies,
- Using a patchwork quilt style of dealing with the explosiveness of the "Spring" being sprung in the Middle East and
- Ignoring the potential for nuclear weapons or materials to fall into the hands of our enemies (i.e. terrorist nations such as Iran, terrorist groups such as al-Qaeda or "friendly" nations possessing nukes already with terrorists up and down the chain of command such as in Pakistan).
National security stories in the news
Iran and Pakistan (both stories are from G2 Bulletin)
As I said one (Iran) wants nothing more than to obtain or build nukes and wipe Israel, and then the rest of the western world off of the map while the nukes in the other (Pakistan) seem to be anything but secure.
"Disregarding international sanctions against its budding nuclear development program, Iran is on a crash course to obtain uranium from Africa and Latin America to mine into yellowcake, and eventually use as fuel for its nuclear reactors..."
"A terror group working inside Pakistan has begun swarming over the region where the Pakistani army operates production complexes to build nuclear weapons and storage facilities for them..."
While the President can sleep at night and campaign during the day, the world continues to pose great dangers to the national security of the United States!

Sisters. Sisters. There were never such devoted sisters. That's how the Irving Berlin song goes and, when I was little, I remember sitting on the sofa, watching White Christmas, and gazing up adoringly at my older sister, Nicola, and thinking that that song was written about us. Weren't we devoted? Of course we were! Didn't we share everything? Absolutely. Only three years apart in age and as close as close could be until... well, until I cajoled her into letting me have her favourite dolly, Michelle for the night and one of the doll's eyes fell out. Nicola didn't speak to me for weeks after that. Or maybe our relationship began to crumble when she was allowed a pony and I wasn't and I harboured such a grudge that, years later, I took her favourite lipstick and smeared it all over the walls of her bedroom. Or did the problems begin when she had a boyfriend and I didn't and I used to kind of flirt with him (poor bloke) in my own childish way?
Oh, sisters! What a tangled web we weave. Forget mothers and sons, fathers and daughters, it's the relationship between sisters that is fascinating. Sisters can change the world. When we are good, united, pulling together, we are an unstoppable force. Look at the Middleton sisters. Would they, on their own, have made the Time Top 100 most influential women in the world? Probably not. It's the combination of them, with their conjoined serious/flirty double-act thing, and their irrepressible rise to the top of society's echelons, that makes them quite so powerful. They weren't bred for it. They have willed it.
And yet, and yet ... anyone who has a sister will tell you how fraught the relationship is. When we are in opposition to each other, we can bring houses down with the venom of our dislike. For it is just so complicated. Sister relationships are bound by two utterly opposing factors; you love them and you hate them. I have felt more passion, more fear, loathing, love, loyalty for my sister than just about anyone else on the planet. She can drive me utterly insane – why does she do the crazy things she does? Then melt my heart with the warmth of her human kindness.
On the one hand, sisters are usually, on some level, utterly devoted. This is the expectation of sisterhood – you are both women! You have to pull together! On the other hand, we are all too close to each other for comfort.
Sisters share a very strong bond – they belong to the same family and are of the female gender. This, in itself, provokes a very strong glue. How can brothers truly understand their sisters and vice versa? Sisters go through the same things together – adolescence, first boyfriends, choosing bras, sharing experiences of pretty much everything. Some sisters seem almost programmed to react to a similar set of circumstances in exactly the same way.
My sister and I appear to be like chalk and cheese. She hasn't had a career. I have. She is an "earth mother", I'm not. She's really nice to sad, lonely hangers-on. I am impatient and dismissive. She gives time to everyone, saves lame ladybirds, rears tiny chicks by hand. I march onwards and upwards, inadvertently crushing everything in my path.
But, when you look at our lives more closely, it is incredible how similar we are. We have both had lots of children. We both love the country. Our love lives have virtually mirrored each other's. This means that, regardless of all our ups and downs – and there have been many – we have a real, true, innate understanding of each other. And yet we have crashed and burnt so many times. We spent years not talking to each other – my mother stuck between the two of us, desperately trying to keep the peace as my sister and I have lobbed hurtful, painful insults over a metaphorical wall.
Sometimes I have been stratospherically insulting to her. She has bitten my head off at any given opportunity and yet, if anyone is rude about my sister, I'll leap to her defence. I will bristle on her behalf, defend her to the hilt, take up my cudgel and wade on in. I have shouted at her, sworn at her, and yet I've cried on her, wept on her like a baby, asked her to look after me, listen to me, help me. When the chips are down, we are there for each other.
We are the best of friends, the worst of enemies. There is no one on this planet who drives me quite as mad as she does, and yet... she's the first person I ring when I am in trouble.
"Of course the sister relationship is fraught," says family therapist Susan Swire. "Look at all that competition! There's the whole problem of 'who's the prettiest' and 'who's the most talented'.
"Then there is the inevitable tension around boyfriends. When girls are younger, they are very competitive about boyfriends and then, as they get older, they get competitive about everything. We think of our sisters as mirrors, and, sometimes, they don't show us at our best, and then that all gets turned into an intense form of rivalry."
She's right – there are countless examples of sisters who indulge in a bit of healthy sibling rivalry, especially when it comes to the attractiveness stakes; Paris and Nicky Hilton are always posing together and yet, by their very natures, Paris is known more than Nicky because she is the most flamboyant. Vogue fashionista and author Plum Sykes is more widely known than her twin, Lucy, even though they both worked in the fashion business for years. Kim Kardashian is more famous than her sisters, Kourtney and Khloe.
This always seems to be the way. One sister rises higher than the other, the more flamboyant garnering more attention than the sober-suited one, the good versus the bad, each sister being the flipside of the other one, a female version of Jacob and Esau.
Take Santa and Tara Palmer-Tomkinson. Blonde, beautiful, honey-skinned Santa is a long-time married (to historical writer Simon Sebag Montefiore) mother and novelist. Tara is naughty, outspoken, formerly wild, vulnerable, and much loved by the nation.
Look at the Minogues. What do you do if you are Dannii? It's impossible to outdo Kylie who is deemed to be a total sweetheart by everyone. She was Charlene in Neighbours! Dannii didn't stand a chance. But maybe it's not that simple. Some sisters just don't get on. Novelists and sisters A S Byatt and Margaret Drabble haven't spoken in years, and refuse to read each other's books.
It also doesn't help when one sister is far more successful in their field than the other. Kristin Scott Thomas is renowned for being a great actress. Her sister Serena Scott Thomas, a former Bond girl, is almost forgotten. Jackie Kennedy Onassis outshone her sister Lee Radziwill, even though the latter was a princess.
My own sister and I have actually flipped roles. As a child, she was more serious, more controlling, more disapproving than she is now. I was probably more rebellious, cheeky, naughty, fun, and now, while I still have a touch of the rebel, my sister has become positively carefree. That serious little girl with the pursed lips has disappeared, to be replaced with something far more joyous and vibrant.
I'm the disapproving one now, always furrowing my brow, shaking my head, thinking "Oh no!" every time she rings me up to tell me a tale she finds hilarious and I find terrifying. When she told me she was pregnant with her seventh child, I almost dropped the phone in horror. We didn't speak for ages after that. But once she had her beautiful baby Jack, I felt truly mean for being so disapproving of something, someone, who is such a big bundle of joy.
Who was I to judge? Well, I am her sister. That's the point of me, her, both of us. Sisters, sisters. There were never such devoted sisters.Reuse content
