Le Combat Dans L'ile at Starz
Most movies dealing with terrorism these days treat it as fundamentalist insanity or societal cancer. In contrast, 1962's Le Combat Dans L'ile turns the subject into, of all things, a complicating factor in a love triangle. The marriage of mood-swingy Anne (Romy Scheider) and rich kid Clément (Jean-Louis Trintignant) is rocky from the start, what with his tendency toward cruel possessiveness; at one point, she tells him, "I don't like it when you're brutal and odd!" But the weirdness has only begun: Before long, he's set up for trying to assassinate a politician targeted by his group of right-wing cabal-mates, who dress like tony business executives, except with bazookas. The two subsequently hide out with Clément's boyhood friend Paul (Henri Serre), now a committed lefty with a recently deceased wife — and when Clément is forced to leave the country, guess what happens. As directed by Louis Malle protegé Alain Cavalier, the offering is a relatively minor if diverting exemplar of its era. Still, the blend of upper-class terror and romantic sophistication delivers a culturally dislocating kick.
The film debuts at Starz FilmCenter in the Tivoli at 5:15 p.m. and 7:30 p.m. on Friday, October 2. Tickets are $6 to $9.50. Learn about future showtimes and more at 303-595-3456 or www.denverfilm.org.

It looks like you're new here. If you want to get involved, click one of these buttons!
Morning Folks
Not been around for awhile, been busy
Ale: Hope you get it all sorted ASAP
AF: Yes life is short, get yourself to Comrades and do that IM. Its one of the reasons I'm cycling LEJOG next June.
What: Cycled 26 miles pre dawn, intervals tonight
Why: Trying to get fit again
Last hard: Mondays tempo run, yesterdays long swim
last rest: Thursday
Mornng DD
Nice to see you DD - what's next?
Blisters - whilst not the most mentally stimulating of activities I think the turbo is a very good training tool if you have the discipline to use it properly. I never understand how people say that they read books or watch films whilst on the turbo, if my concentration wanders my HR goes with it and I'm just going through the motions.
Touh session RFJ - which half marathon?
Belated Happy Birthday to Master birkmyre!
Cold seems to be progressing as would be expected and is all above the neck, antibiotics seem to be just about sitting on the infection and yesterday's turbo doesn't appear to have adversely affected either so:
What: short, easy run if health and work permit
Why: I want to
Last hard: breathing through my nose
Last rest: 1/10
Lyrics - familiar but not enough to say yes.
Yesterday's lyrics: Monty Python's, "Always look on the bright side of life". I'm trying to, honest!
Today's lyrics: nope.
Off to earn a few quid whilst i can!
morning all,
OH - great report and congrats on the HUGE pb!
Emz- glad you got thru the day unscathed!
DD - welcome back
RFJ - sounds a good (if hard) session, & yes, which half?
Talking of HM, belatedly entered this Sundays local (Basingstoke) which tbh is a lot of the roads I train/long run on. Not a target race, more a training tempo run, with a medal at the end, however.......
Expecting to help coach U11s last night at the club, I did 6m at lunchtime with 4x5 min fast intervals (middle four miles in 26.xx). Due to loads of rain locally however there was a much reduced attendance with the juniors last night so was told I could train with my usual road group...so a rare double...14x250m in continual relays (teams of 3)
Sods law however with the race entry meant that on ~rep 10 felt a pain in the hamstring. Don't think its torn and 'jogged' the last few reps. But bliddy sore so lots of stretching today. Typical.
What - nada 'cept stretching
Why - Oldies take longer to recover from aches and pains
What: nil - possibly an indoor kayak session (AKA pub night)
Why: rest after mara (first run planned tommorow)
Last Hard: Sunday
Last rest: yesterday
Thanks guys for all the congrats. Walking normally again now!
(biggest problem was standing on one leg to get a sock on etc)
What: Quick visit to the gym on the way home
Why: Still recovering from Bristol. Much less sore today, should be fine for a gentle parkrun.
Last Hard: Sunday
Last rest: Yesterday
Lyrics: No idea!
Hope it comes to nothing Dustin.
Glad you're recovering OH and GGG.
I was rear ended by one of our students on the way in to work! I was stationary in traffic when all of a sudden 'wham' - an impact so hard that it sent all of the change flying from my little compartment near the handbrake and the dog's tennis ball from the back of the car to the passenger foot well. I swear I felt my brain move in my skull and it was some time before I could see straight but amazingly my car seems undamaged - and it's only a little old Corsa. I have a headache but other than that just a little crepitus in my neck and shoulders - a lucky escape I feel but I could have done without it on top of the streaming head cold and tooth abscess. Wondering if another rest day may actually be a good idea as the pounding in my head seems to be worsened by movement
LMH Take a rest day and get the car checked out by a garage, pleased that your generally OK.
Next is a 10K on Saturday and then its full into the local race season a mixture of Oly Tri's, 10K's, Half marathon, Marathon, Aquathlons, plus individual & team time trials, oh and the coast to coast bike race 220K in November. Then in March it will be Abu Dhabi International tri before JOGLE in June AND return to blighty!
OH: Nice marathon, my club mate ran it in 2-53.
Dustin:Sods law indeed hope its soon better.
I think you're right DD - I feel a little wiped. Have taken car to local garage, there is some damage, it's been pushed in at the back which you can't see from outside and there's a dent/scratch on the bodywork near the bumper and a long scrape near the boot handle but nothing that will adversely affect it's handling, as it's an 03 reg Corsa if I did want to get it repaired the insurance company would probably write it off anyway, don't see the point in making the poor girl's life difficult for the sake of the appearance of my old car and it's already very limited resale value. I would like to feel well enough to go for a run though Your last season of warm weather racing then?
What 8 commute
Why tapering
Lyrics no
LMH Glad there's nothing too wrong thoughn the experience of minor accidents can be terrificaly unsettling.
Tom - I believe that you should treat people as you would like to be treated. Glad to hear that you were able to run. It's not something as simple as a ridge of hard skin is it? If not it may be worth rolling your foot over a frozen water bottle and doing toe crunchies - gathering a towel up by scrunching your toes (if that makes sense).
Postie - I think on top of my current minor ill health it was all just a bit too much today. Do hope I feel well enough to run after work tomorrow though.
LMH oh dear hope thats your three. Glad you're ok
Dustin hope you'll be ok too
Did 5.27 miles yesterday but when i got back couldn't post here as couldn't get internet
What. 1.1 miles
Why all i have time for mores the pity as felt good
Last Hard: Friday
Lyrics no
off now back tomorrow
Tom. wrote (see)
Poor biomechanics....moi?
Et moi aussi! Mind you I rarely had a problem when running in the 60s and 70s in pumps/plimsoles and other shoes with no cushioning. Race shoe of choice I suddenly recalled the other day: Reebok World 10 or something like that. I should know: I used to sell them! Anyway I hope that doc agrees to a scan: if you don't ask you don't get! That would give you and the podiatrist something to work on.
No estimate given of Achilles recovery...2 days in hospital, some sort of boot for 2 to 3 weeks, gradually introduce stretches: consultant won't put a timescale on it, and physio says the same. A 58 year old tendon is likely to revover at a different rate to a teenage one! Will be following recovery plan, whatever it entails, to the letter!
LMH: take care...when someone drove into my car in May 2010 I felt similar symptoms to you, and am still suffering with neck problems from time to time, although, admittedly, I did have an existing condition. It was much worse 48 hours after the crash and had to receive medical attention. And the guy can have been doing no more than 10 miles an hour. Somewhat embarassing for your student!
Tom - I have a not dissimilar leg length discrepancy and am crippled without my orthotics, could well be your problem - let's hope so as easily solved.
Alehouse - I have had whiplash before and it felt much worse than this so I'm hoping it will come to nothing, still won't be any point in stressing the poor girl - I'll hurt just as much for just as long even if I went for compensation. Do you have everything set for your operation date?
Pammie - I hope so too - I'm feeling a little ill fated at the moment.
LMH / Dustin - Gosport Half is my Target race (18 Nov) but will also be going hard at Solent Half on 14th Oct....
5m easy tonight
Ale, Im sure all will be ok.... wil be thinking of you and hoping your recovery is good and quick.
Take care (lyric No and should have got yesterdays...)
LMH, that wasn't a good day at the office was it? The others have offered most reasoned and reasonable recommendations, based on their experiences of being run into. Personally, I have no such experience to offer. I do however admit to rear ending 2 other cars, and reversing into objects/vehicles at least 6 other times. 3 of the incidents on my own drive. Just be careful if you park near me, OK?
Training? 9 miles whilst small daughter was at Guides and wife was away. As 16 year old daughter was at home and her boyfriend I presume that they had it away. Any opportunity, and all that.
What: A sort of 5km tempo at lunch time plus yoga class after work
Why: I normally run on Wednesday lunch time with the girls from work, it's catch up time plus yoga in the evening is such a good stretching session
Last hard: 7.5 miles on Sunday - training for GSR
Last rest: Tuesday

I keep hearing descriptions of 'heathered' yarns, and I sort of have a vague idea of the meaning just from seeing pictures of those yarns, but I wonder if anyone can give me an actual definition of the term? Thanks!
The dictionary definition is flecked with different colors , speckled.
I have found a lot of "heathered" yarns that have both dyed and natural fibers spun together with the abundance being the dyed yarns. I have also seen heathered yarns with two different colors spun together with one color being the main dominant color. Mostly I find the natural colors tend to be white(ish), grey or black, which I also find mimicked in dyed heathers as well. I'd type more but my dh just took my glasses.
The reason I started wondering about this is because I bought some Cascade 220 on Ebay. The color is called Lapis (which makes me think of lapis lazuli, a shade of blue), and I would describe the yarn color as a dark blue-green intertwined with purple. So I began wondering if this could be described as 'heathered.' That seems to match what both HollyP and Knitncook said -- so again, thanks!:muah: Christine

Adamek targets Haye
During the past three weeks, two cruiserweight Champions have made news with impressive wins in the heavyweight division. Last Saturday in Germany, David Haye of England won the WBA Heavyweight title by defeating Russian giant Nikolai Valuev. Two weeks earlier, Ring Cruiserweight Champion Tomasz Adamek dethroned Polish Legend Andrew Golota in Lodz, Poland with a crushing 5th round TKO in a heavyweight fight that was billed as the "Polish Fight of the Century."
The juxtaposition of these two wins raises the intriguing possibility that there will be much more action in the recently moribund heavyweight division, as faster, more mobile 200 pounders move up to successfully challenge their supersized, less athletic counterparts. It also begs the question, "When will Adamek and Haye fight each other?"
That question most certainly occurred to Adamek as he watched a tape of the Haye fight earlier this week. The power punching Pole did not hesitate to call out the new champion: "David, if you want to fight against somebody who punches back at your face—not the empty air—you know where to find me," Adamek declared. "You call yourself the best heavyweight fighter in the world after running scared for the whole fight with Nikolai Valuev? It's not even funny."
After criticizing Haye for an exhibition "worthy of the London Marathon trophy" vs. Valuev, Adamek went on to say, "Talking is cheap. People don't care how big you are during the press conferences. They want to see a man in the ring. I never say too much before my fights and my opponents are not saying a lot afterwards because they are knocked down. You say you want to be a people's champion. If so, fight me. That's what the people want."
"There's no doubt that Haye-Adamek would be a "pick-em" fight," Kathy Duva of Main Events, Adamek's co-promoter, said. "It's been a very long time since the boxing public has seen the kind of action in a heavyweight title fight that they enjoyed before the advent of the Super Heavyweights who dominate the division these days." She continued, "When a heavyweight title fight is exciting, there is always a 'smaller' guy in the ring pressing the action. Muhammad Ali, Joe Frazier, Joe Louis, Rocky Marciano, Jack Dempsey and, of course, Evander Holyfield, to name a few, all fought in their primes under 215 pounds. The next great heavyweight will come from the Cruiserweight division and we believe that he will be Tomasz Adamek."
Adamek's fight with Golota was viewed by more than 13 million people in Poland, in addition to the 17,000 raucous fans who packed the Atlas Arena in Lodz, to see the fight in person. Adamek crushed Golota, knocking him down twice and winning with a 5th round TKO vs. the four-time heavyweight title contender.
As a cruiserweight, Adamek won his last seven consecutive fights, five by KO. The Jersey City transplant won the IBF World Cruiserweight title last December in a blistering fight with Philadelphia's Steve Cunningham, and successfully defended it twice in 2009 at Newark's Prudential Center. Last year, Adamek was awarded the Ring Magazine Cruiserweight Belt, recognizing him as their Undisputed World Cruiserweight Champion.
Adamek will return to the Prudential Center on Saturday, February 6th in a 12-round heavyweight fight. Details will be announced next week.

st: estimating measurement error with interval censoring
Thu, 7 Feb 2008 10:07:03 -0000
I am working with a rather wobbly measurement method where the readings are also interval-censored. (It is a doubling-dilutions titration, for anyone interested. After transforming to a log2 scale, the measurements appear as integers where a reading of e.g. x=4 actually means 3<x<=4.)
I am interested in characterising the repeatability of the measurements, and have some replicates to work with. I have about 300 samples, each of which has been measured on up to 8 occasions, typically 6-7 occasions, but sometimes only once or twice. This has some similarities with panel data with N around 300, T around 6. The actual measurement will be different in each of the 300 samples, but I'm not interested in that. I am only interested in the variation between replicates, and I am prepared to assume that the variation is normally distributed and the same for all samples.
My idea so far is to use -intreg- and include dummies for sample. I was concerned about using dummies, and such a large number of them, having been warned frequently about the dangers of group dummies with logistic regression, but I thought it should be OK as this is linear regression (see e.g. the footnote in this post from Bill Gould http://www.hsph.harvard.edu/cgi-bin/lwgate/STATALIST/archives/statalist.0710/date/article-934.html). However, a very quick simulation suggests that the estimate of the variation (obtained from e(sigma) following -intreg-) is biased downwards when the number of replicates per sample is small-ish.
I'd be very grateful if someone on the list with experience in this sort of thing could comment about whether the -intreg- plus dummies approach is reasonable, or suggest something more appropriate.
Thank you.
Rosy Reynolds

This may be a complete noob question, but are there limits on how much boost there is available in the different gears?
I'm breaking mine in, and have 400+ miles on it now, but have on occasion run up to about 5lbs of boost on the gauge in 3rd, 4th, and 5th gears. Never for very long, but then I remembered something about the amount of boost being depending on the gear you are in.
I've been very careful in 1st and 2nd not to get into boost, but did not know if I should be doing things differently or if I'm doing it right.

Beoordelingen van deze accommodatie
We can recommend this apartment to everyone. It is spacious and quiet. The landlord and his wife are very friendly and nice people. Upon arrival we even got a tour by the landlord, he showed us places and beaches which we would never have found be ourselves. The location is convenient and about 2 kilometers from the center of Pula. It is a perfect base for exploring Pula and the surrounding area.

Fijne week gehad.
We had a really wonderful 2 weeks, in Villa Kalic in Stokovci. It's a great new house in a small village, There is thought of everything needed for a relaxed holiday,The house is very clean & spacious and has a beautiful garden & swimming pool. Close you find nice beaches (Fazana, Peroj), small towns and also tourist attractions such as Rovinj, Pula and Aqua Parks for the kids. Tip: In Svetvincenat, you find a supermarket and bakery. In Vodjnan there is a large supermarket.The host family is very friendly, and willing to help or advise you in any way (cleaning of the pool 2x a week, new towels and beddings 1x a week). We will go back for sure!
We had a great vacation at this house. It's a beautiful flat with enough space for 4-5 people. The flat was very clean and the pool was really nice!
The two housekeepers were very friendly, they answered all our questions and helped us during our stay, thank you very much for everything! :)
We enjoyed our stay in Kavran a lot. The cozy house met our expectations from the pictures and was perfect for two couples offering two bedrooms and two bathrooms. The village is very quiet and close to wonderful bays (5-10 min car drive). The contact person were very friendly and always available for questions. I can only recommend it!
For the second year in row we had a very pleasant stay in Pjescana Uvala. The flat is very comfortable en well equiped, the beach is only 50m away. The hosts are most friendly and kind. Pula and Medulin are close by. A warm recommandation worthy!!
+ Nice, clean Apartment
+ Friendly neighbours and animals
+ Short distance to Pula and Beach
+ Quiet Neighbourhood
- Weak Wifi Signal + No Pans
Lovely, spacious and clean apartment in a friendly suburb of Pula. The large terrace is a huge bonus, we had a great time.
Lovely apartment, good air con. We had an amazing time in such a beautiful place. Lavanda restaurant just down the road is great too!! Easy walk to the beach and a shop just round the corner. Ideal! Marko was great too and answered all my questions straight away. Will definitely use these guys again

Januar 2004
BeschreibungTheInternationalConferenceonWired/WirelessInternetCommunications(WWIC)was held for the second time, following a successful start in 2002, in LasVegas. The goal of theconferencewastopresenthigh-qualityresultsinthe?eld,andtoprovideaframework for research collaboration through focused discussions that designated future research efforts and directions. The number and the quality of submissions indicate that we are well on the way to establishing WWIC as a major event in the ?eld of wired/wireless internet communications. We received around 60 competitive submissions from Europe, North America, the Middle East and the Far East. Each submission was reviewed by at least two experts, although the majority received three or more reviews. Based on this rigorous reviewing procedure, the International Program Committee selected 26 submissions for presen- tion and publication in the proceedings. Therefore, we should all expect the quality of a selective conference in this volume. We hope you will enjoy it. The papers selected for presentation at WWIC 2004 were stimulating and of utmost interest. They were organized into eight sessions: 1. Protocol engineering and energy ef?ciency in wireless networks 2. Mobility management and mobile devices 3. Transport layer and congestion control 4. Architecture, implementation and experimentation 5. Network and protocol modeling 6. Wireless network scheduling and analysis 7. Multimedia distribution and group communication 8. Service discovery. We would like to thank the authors for choosingWWIC 2004 to submit their results.

Chargers have just one punt return yard all season
The San Diego Chargers struggled returning punts in 2014, so they attempted to improve the unit this offseason by signing return specialist Jacoby Jones. To say their plan hasn't worked would be a massive understatement. As Pro Football Talk pointed out Monday, the Chargers ranked dead last in the NFL through Week 8 with one punt return yard. That's right: One. How is...
Baltimore Ravens release Jones, Canty
It's that time of year when NFL teams begin to release players in order to free up salary cap space. The Baltimore Ravens have already made a few such moves, releasing WR/KR Jacoby Jones and DE Chris Canty. In addition to those two cuts, the Ravens have signed defensive end Christo Bilukidi, who played in four games with the team last season, to a two-year contract. Bilukidi was...

Baltimore Ravens Release Jacoby Jones
In a less-than-surprising move, the Baltimore Ravens have released wide receiver and return specialist Jacoby Jones.

Is this more than a "slump" for Baltimore Ravens WR Jacoby Jones?
Jacoby Jones received $4.5 million guaranteed from a four-year, $12 million deal, which he signed in the offseason. Too bad his play on the field hasn't lived up to that deal. It's no secret what got Jones a deal such as this. He's become a fan favorite in his three-year run with the Ravens. Many Ravens fans love Jones for his Dancing With The Stars flashbacks in the end...

Jacoby: "Trying to be one of the best receivers in the league."
Ravens wide receiver Jacoby Jones was a small-school product from Division II Lane College. His athletic abilities were heralded upon entering the NFL, and stories abound of Jones being summoned by Denzel Washington when Lane faced Morehouse (where Washington's son played) so he could tell the receiver, "Son, I expect to see you on Sunday."

Ozzie Newsome has done a nice job with the roster and putting pieces in place to fill holes, as expected. However, for all of the noise the Ravens have made in free agency — resigning Pitta, Daryl Smith and Jacoby Jones, signing Steve Smith — he also lost some key contributors that have yet to be replaced. Arguably the most important of those players is defensive end Arthur...

By James Leverenz, MD and Lindsey Beach
The ADRC strives to identify Alzheimer's biomarkers and to improve Alzheimer's treatments, and we currently have three important projects underway that look to fulfill these two primary goals. These projects are directly dependent on the clinical information we gather from research participants at annual ADRC Registry follow-up visits and lumbar punctures. Below is an overview of these ongoing ADRC projects; we hope this overview will give you a clear snapshot of the questions our center is asking and the answers we are pursuing.
Cerebrospinal Fluid (CSF) Proteome of Geriatric Dementia: CSF Protein Profiling of Central Nervous
System (CNS) Insulin Activity
Project Leader: Thomas Montine, PhD, Alvord Professor of Neuropathology, University of Washington, Department of Pathology, Division of Neuropathology
Recent small patient trials have suggested that improving insulin activity in the brain can improve or protect thinking abilities in patients with Alzheimer's disease (AD) or mild cognitive impairment (MCI). This project has three main goals to better understand these findings. The first goal is to identify markers in CSF that change when brain insulin activity is increased. The second goal is to examine these same markers in conditions, such as MCI and AD, where brain insulin activity appears to be impaired. And the third goal is to examine the presence of these markers in brain tissue obtained from the ADRC autopsy program. The overall objective of the project is to improve our understanding of the biological processes that that underlie the effect of insulin on brain functioning as people age.
Therapeutic Effects of Intra-Nasal Insulin Detemir
Project Leader: Suzanne Craft, MD, Professor, University of Washington, Department of Psychiatry and Behavioral Sciences
This project also focuses on the insulin effects in the brain of aging and Alzheimer's disease (AD). It is a clinical trial, which is a study that looks at treatment responses in living patients. The project examines how insulin that is administered through the nose in the form of a spray may affect the thinking abilities of patients with MCI and AD. In addition to examining thinking abilities, the project also observes biomarkers associated with AD to see how they respond to the nasal spray treatment.
Modulation of Abeta Peptide Accumulation and Neuron Damage In Vivo with Adult Bone Marrow Transplants
Project Leader: Christopher D. Keene, MD, PhD, Assistant Professor, University of Washington, Department of Pathology, Division of Neuropathology
This project uses an animal model to develop better treatments for Alzheimer's disease. More particularly, the project tests a new, unique method for reducing the accumulation of the amyloid-beta protein in the brains of mice. The investigators are attempting to refine and better understand a method known as a mini-bone marrow transplant, a method that appears to successfully remove amyloid-beta protein from the brains of mice. The overall goal of the project is to learn how these mini-bone marrow transplants have an effect on amyloid-beta in the brain and how this technique might ultimately be applied to patients with AD.
Aerobic and Resistance Training in Prediabetic African Americans Project Leader: Jeannine Skinner, PhD
Dr. Skinner's project will compare the effects of exercise and health education on the thinking abilities, insulin sensitivity, and levels of Alzheimer's biomarkers in a group of African Americans with prediabetes. Learn more about Dr. Skinner's project in the next issue of Dimensions.
Quantification of Abeta and tau in CSF by LC-MS/MS
Project Leader: Andrew Hoofnagle, MD, PhD
This project aims to develop a new type of biomarker analysis to help translate already-known Alzheimer's biomarkers into practical, day-to-day diagnostic tests that can be reliably used in caring for people with Alzheimer's.

He passes me, and im with my friend in the car, who encouraged me to shut the guy up, so i floor it, pass him and shoot onto the highway. I cruise it at 100, and look to my right to see the g5 se flying by... So i get off at the next exit, to see the car there, and he revs it at the light, so I do the same. Easy win in my head, so why not go for it, I havent raced since i put on my winters. I turned up the music and the subs full blast to kinda show that i already knew i had this in the bag. Light goes green. I got destroyed.... I didnt understand why, the guy opens his windows and i see 4 guys in his car, so im like wtf even with all the weight i got ownt? Maybe it was because my tires were spinning out a little bit more than they should have. I opened my window and said lets do a pull from 40, so we go, and on the third honk, all i heard was the whine of his supercharger he put in his G5.

|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
Lately, it seems that any series involving the Yankees is sure to get the Red Sox on track. Coming off the miserable trip to Tampa Bay, where they dropped three of four, the Red Sox visited the new Yankee Stadium for the first time and left unblemished, sweeping the brief two-game set.
They split another two-gamer with the Indians and for the first time in eight series, counting the ALCS, the Red Sox took one from the Rays. All this leads to Boston's final West Coast trip of the season, which is quite early in the season.
The Red Sox have trimmed the deficit to one game in the division, behind the Blue Jays, and will finally get a look at them in a couple weeks.
The new Yankee Stadium has not exactly been home field advantage the Yankees were hoping for at this point. They lost the home opener to the Indians and then had 22 runs dropped on them in another game in the series. Then, they have had to deal with the ticket and attendance issues. Finally, the Red Sox come to town after they had just swept the Yankees in Fenway the week before and the earned the first ever sweep in this stadium as well (the Rays also swept a pair after the Red Sox left town).
The dreariness was not just on the field as the game was delayed over two hours by rain, at which time fans were told by attendants that it was canceled and to leave, only to be barred from returning to the game.
Once the game got underway, Phil Hughes labored through four innings, being forced to throw 94 pitches and allowing a single run in each frame. Jon Lester allowed three in seven innings for the Sox and struck out 10. He had a little problem with the long ball, being victimized by Johnny Damon's two-run dinger and Mark Teixeira's solo homer in the three-run fifth.
Ramon Ramirez came on in relief for 0.1IP, but notably allowed his first run of the season, on Big Tex's first home run on the season. This forced Jonathan Papelbon to come on for the five out save. In the 32 pitch effort, he allowed two hits, but struck out three to secure the victory. The middle of the order was very effective for the Red Sox as J.D. Drew, hitting fifth, was 1-2 with two walks, Jason Bay continued his hot play with a 3-5 performance, including a two run homer, and Mike Lowell was 2-4 with a home run as well in the 6-4 win.
The Red Sox got all they would need in the first inning of the second game, as they jumped all over Joba Chamberlain, getting four runs on five hits on the board. Another Bay home run punctuated the rally. However, Chamberlain settled down over the rest of his 12-strikeout start. He pitched into the sixth and allowed only one more hit and two walks the rest of the way.
Josh Beckett started for the Sox and danced around a lot of trouble. Damon hit another home run, accounting for all three Yankees runs, but Beckett allowed 10 hits and one walk in his six innings, and struck out five. The Red Sox got three perfect innings out of Hideki Okajima and Takashi Saito while the Yankees needed seven pitchers and 195 pitches to get through the 7-3 decision.
The Red Sox winning ways were a day late coming in from New York as the Indians took the opener of the brief series 9-2. The Sox clawed two early runs off Carl Pavano with a Jeff Bailey double play and Jonathan Van Every single, but that is all they would get. Pavano went six and Aaron Laffey got a three-inning save in a seven-run win, a doubly rare feat.
The 2-5 hitters (Asdrubal Cabrera, Victor Martinez, Shin-Soo Choo, and Mark DeRosa) had three hits apiece for the Indians to provide most of the offense. Ben Francisco had the only other Cleveland hit.
Most of the damage was done to Justin Masterson, who had his second consecutive poor start, allowing six runs again. He allowed eight hits, three walks, and struck out six in 6.1 innings. Neither Henry Jones nor Javier Lopez provided much relief. The Red Sox managed only eight hits and only Van Every and Jason Varitek had more than one.
The Red Sox rebounded from the loss, pounding the Indians 13-3 in the final game of the series behind Tim Wakefield. Wakefield allowed only two through six on four hits and four walks and only struck out three, but despite not having his best stuff, got the easy victory.
Wake rode the backs of Jason Bay and the rest of the offense who delivered 12 runs in the bottom of the sixth in historic fashion, tying a modern record with 12 runs before recording an out. Bay was 2-2 with a home run and four batted in, just in the sixth. Julio Lugo led off with a 3-5 effort and four other Sox had two hits each as the Red Sox were very efficient with their scoring as it only took 13 hits to get the 13 runs, though they were issued three free passes as well.
It has been a while, but the Red Sox finally took a series from the Rays, a team they could seemingly steamroll just a couple years ago. The Red Sox took the opener despite a good effort for five innings from James Shields. Sheilds had out-dueled Brad Penny to that point, bringing a 3-0 lead into the sixth when it seemed that the Rays tried to get a little too much from him. The Red Sox hit Shields hard in the frame with Bay and Drew taking him yard and Jacoby Ellsbury and Dustin Pedroia also recording RBIs.
Shields expressed his frustrations with his unraveling outing after the Bay home run by slamming the gound without even watching the ball leave the park. Penny improved to 3-1 with the 7-3 win, but allowed another eight hits and two walks and only fanned two, leaving his ERA at 6.90 for the season.
Tampa Bay evened the series with a 14-5 win in the second game as Lester failed to get out of the fifth inning. He allowed eight runs on 10 hits and a walk, but six of the 13 outs he recorded were strikeouts. Carl Crawford had three hits, but no steals, and Evan Longoria hit a home run and drove in five as the Rays cruised.
Scott Kazmir was anything but stellar for the Rays as he only went five and allowed eight hits and three runs and only struck out a pair, but got all the offense and the win. Rocco Baldelli and Julio Lugo each hit a home run off their former team.
Red Sox ace Josh Beckett and Red Sox killer Matt Garza dueled in a back and forth game in the finale. Pat Burrell's RBI single in the first put the Rays on top briefly, but Drew's groundout an inning later tied it up. Varitek and Nick Green helped push two more runs across as the bottom of the order gave the Red Sox the lead in the fourth, but Tampa tied it in the sixth 3-3.
Beckett got the Red Sox through six, allowing the three runs and six hits and three walks with five strikeouts. Garza was a little better, going seven, also allowing three, and gave up seven hits and two walks and struck out six, but each had to settle for a no decision. Brian Shouse came in to face one batter, David Ortiz, who doubled, and then Dan Wheeler came on to finish the inning, but allowed a Jason Bay double to score Papi, which proved to be the game winner.
Ramon Ramirez got the final out of the eighth to improve to 3-0 and Papelbon closed out the 4-3 win as he struck out the side in the ninth, though he allowed a hit and a walk.
The Red Sox go West and get the second and third place teams in the division. They face the Angels first, who took two of three from the Red Sox in Anaheim earlier this season. Masterson will face Jared Weaver (3-1, 2.66 ERA, 0.98 WHIP), who has been great so far this season. Wakefield draws Matt Palmer (3-0, 3.06, 1.08) in the middle game, and Penny tangles with Joe Saunders (5-1, 2.66, 1.10) in the finale.
After a slow start, the Angels are heating up, having won four in a row and seven of eight. They are doing it largely on the backs of their starting pitching: 3.58 ERA for starters (#1 MLB); 6.75 ERA for relievers (last MLB). The Angels starters have been able to go deep in games with reasonable pitch counts, but the Red Sox are a patient bunch and like to run up pitch counts to get into the bullpen.
Jose Arrendondo and Brian Fuentes, the two who were supposed to be the back of a very strong bullpen have been the main problem among the relievers. Weaver, Palmer, and Saunders are not strikeout pitchers and tend to have good control, the type of pitchers that tend to fare best against the Red Sox, as pinpointing location is the one thing that can force a patient hitter to put the ball in play instead of waiting for a mistake or walk. The Red Sox might be happy just to get the West Coast over with after this series, taking one game.
The Mariners have been a surprise this season, but it remains to be seen if they will compete all season in the division, as they have now fallen to 16-16. Jon Lester opens with Chris Jakubauskus (1-4, 7.67, 1.47), Beckett duels with Erik Bedard (2-1, 2.53, 1.17), who is beginning to look like the player they wanted to acquire in the Adam Jones deal, and Masterson faces Jason Vargas (1-0, 0.00, 1.09).
Seattle's offense is not scary as they rank in the bottom third in most offensive categories, including a paltry .312 on base percentage. Their pitching is very average, though the bullpen is something of a strength. Brandon Morrow is the closer, but is off to a shaky start in his first full season in the role (6 saves, 4.70, 1.70) while ex-Red Sox David Aardsma has proven to be a very capable backup in the role (3 saves, 1.88, 1.12). The Red Sox should have a good series. Any time a team has a closer who makes things interesting, no game is safe, so the Red Sox should take a couple here.

i want to know if anyone else has gone through this or something similar because i really don't know how to handle this. i've pretty much come to the conclusion that after we move we're just not going to have anything to do with her because i dont want my son to be subjected to this.
its so bad that when he sees that we're going "home" that he starts saying no, no, no daddy, go shopping and cries . what to do?? i know moving is the obvious solution, but we are dirt poor right now, so any other solutions would be nice to hear.
thanx so much for reading this post, any feedback would be nice.
I am so sorry that you are going through this I have a very controling mil too who lives right behind us. I don't even go in to the back yard because if I do she will be there within 5 min telling me dd is to cold, to hot or something. I am reaching my boiling point with her.....
How much longer will you be living with her? I hope for you that it isn't much longer!
LOVE your name btw! Dh and I are HUGE RHCP fans! Our lo one was born with the cp's playing in the background and our dog is named Kiedis

Darkness: Darkness meets Keran
I was walking down the street when I saw something on the side of the road. I walked up to it and I noticed it was a boy. He looked like he was around my age too. I didn't know what to do so I picked him up and started walking to my house.
On the way to my house I noticed something, He had fangs! I thought it was a bit weird but I guess he was born that way.
When we got home I walked through the mahogany door and up the wooden stairs. Down the hallway there were lots of photos, most of them were from my childhood. I got to a crimson red door with a sign that said, "Darkness lives beyond this door." I always loved that name, Darkness. I opened the door and walked to my bed and set the boy down.
I walked downstairs to tell my parents about the boy.
"Mom, Dad! I'm home! By the way, while I was walking I saw a person lying on the ground. He looked around my age and He probably would've gotten hurt by someone or get hit by a car so I brought him home."
"Tingo! Why would you bring a stranger into our house?!"
"I just explained why! Derp." We had a conversation about bringing home strangers and stuff around that area. I heard footsteps coming from upstairs so I walked back up the wooden stairs. I looked at one of the pictures on the way to my bedroom and I saw a 7 year old me! Man, have I changed! I had such poofy hair.
I continued to my bedroom and opened the crimson door. The boy was looking around my bedroom.
"Excuse me."
"Are you the one that brought me here?"
"Yes, that's me. I found you laying on the side of the road. I was worried you would get hurt so I brought you home."
"Well....i'm sorry if I caused you any trouble?"
"It's ok"
We had a long conversation and we got to know each other. I found out his name was Keran. He was the same age as me, and the sad thing about him is that he lived all by himself. I offered if he wanted to stay with me and is reply was, "Really?! Your not joking?! I would love too!"
That is how Keran became a part of 'Darkness's' life.

New gears
So the humming noise is becoming ridiculous, I want to replace the ring and pinion but what I want to know is can that be all I change? Do I need to or should I replace the spider gears and all other bearings? I am trying not to break the bank but if I need to then I suppose it would be ok. Opinions?
Re: New gears
The diiff's, particularly the ELSD, are not something any one can try to rebuild, even the Jeep dealer. The bearing preload is set using thick shim sets, and a special tool is needed to install them. Jasper remanufactures (not rebuilds) these diffs, and there are over 90 different shim thicknesses needed, since each diff is unique and must be set to exact tolerances.
If it is that bad and about to go, best bet, is to buy a Jasper reman. They do it right (they supply Nascar trannies), and it will be better/cheaper than an all new one from Chrysler.

Business Yellow Pages Misleading Telemarketing Tactics - BEWARE Ft. Lauderdale Florida
Does your business have a bad reputation?
Fix it the right way.
Corporate Advocacy Program™
Beware of the Business Yellow Pages misleading telemarketing tactics. They call and state, "we have your listing as XXX" and ask if it's correct. They then read off the address, telephone and fax numbers, and ask if they have those correct. They then ask if they can send an invoice, and if the person they are speaking to is authorized to receive an invoice. All of this is recorded.
NEVER do they ask if the individual/company is interested in advertising with them. They also never ask if the person they are talking to is authorized to comit to advertising with them. They only ask if they can send an invoice.
We receive yellow page "invoices" every week, and the fine print reads, "if you'd like to advertise with our publication please fill out the paperwork and return with your payment".
This is all that our assistant thought she was agreeing to. She never thought she was signing our company up for advertising!
We now receive several threatening collection calls a day. They are insisting we owe them $649.99. They are very happy to play the voice recording, where they think they've received authorization for purchasing the advertising. But never, during the recording, do they ask if we would like to advertise with them, or if the person they are speaking to is authorized to comit to such advertising.
I have filed a complaint with the Broward County Better Business Bureau and with Pam Bondi, the Attorney General for the State of Florida. Hopefully they can put a stop to the misleading telemarketing tactics the Business Yellow Pages employ.
Alert your staff to this scam!

Partnership allows Kiwi scientists access to unexplored ocean floor in Japanese sub.
Forget all that creaking and groaning of stressed metal as the pressure of millions of tonnes of water comes to bear. That's pure Hollywood. It's actually dead quiet as you descend thousands of metres into the ocean's deepest trenches.
At least it is if you do it inside the Shinkai 6500, a Japanese Deep Submergence Vehicle that recently took a bunch of Kiwi scientists into the Kermadec Trench in a bid to uncover the mysteries of life in one of the world's most inaccessible and least explored environments.
"You don't hear anything," Niwa principal scientist Dr Malcolm Clark said. "But there is a huge difference. The Hollywood naval submarines are fully operational. This is a 2m sphere. Three people and all the sensitive electronics are packed into that sphere."
See a gallery of some of the observed creatures here
Despite the high-tech cameras and robotic arms, the Shinkai 6500 looks a little like a cartoon submarine. The outer shell that encases the sphere (or titanium alloy pressure hull) houses the propulsion and ballast system. It takes about 2 hours to descend to 6500m - the deepest any manned craft on the planet can go - and about an hour to drop the 2300m to the Louisville Seamount chain Dr Clark has just explored.
With the batteries switched off to save power the descent takes place in darkness. The lights go on when the Shinkai reaches the sea floor. "Suddenly, wow, there it is - an area that has never been seen by human eyes before," Dr Clark said.
The biggest advantage of being there is seeing things in 3D, in their natural environment. "It's very different from what you see on a flat TV screen. You can see what new species are down there and what is unusual."
Tiny, stripey pink and orange lobsters, flatfish, crabs, sponges, corals and shellfish, some of which may be unique to the area, were among the discoveries scooped up with the slurp gun - basically an underwater vacuum.
The Kiwi-Japanese collaboration is an ongoing, although hardly equal affair. New Zealand's contribution is primarily in scientific minds, while Japan chips in with a submersible technology programme that Japanese Agency for Marine-Earth Science and Technology assistant public relations director Kihachi Hasebe estimated has so far cost around 120 billion ($1.48 billion).
The relationship makes sense because of extremely similar marine environments of the two nations.
"Combining the scientific expertise of both countries is a really good thing," Dr Clark said. "They can bring resources that can help improve our understanding of our natural environments. We can ensure that we balance any potential exploitation - and there is interest in deep-sea mining some of these sea mount features - with conservation."
Going deep
* The Shinkai 6500 deep submergence vehicle
* Broke world record for deepest manned dive (6527m) in 1989
* Normal dive duration 8 hours
* Carries three passengers (two pilots, one researcher) in 2m titanium alloy personnel sphere
* Life support duration 129 hours
* Maximum speed 2.7 knots
* Takes 2.5 hours to descend 6.5km.

Moulin Rouge Parent Review
Movie Review
Truth, beauty, freedom, and love: these were the ideals of the Bohemian revolution (a prequel to the Hippie Era) that began at the end of the 1800's. Fleeing the constraints of a moral society, adventurous or disgraced socialites, artists, writers, and rebellious sons of the European middle-class made their way to a seedy suburb of Paris and a naughty nightclub named after its trademark red windmill--the Moulin Rouge.
NEW: Listen to our Parent Previews Podcast and take control of media and technology in your family!
The fictitious Christian (Ewan McGregor), is a young writer who pursues his career in the ill reputed neighborhood. Lending his creative talent to his neighbors' efforts to write a musical show, Christian is selected to convince Satine (Nichol Kidman), star of the Moulin Rouge, to play the lead so they can sell the concept to Zidler (Jim Broadbent), the club's owner. But Zidler has other plans for the coveted courtesan (a polite name for prostitute with an upscale clientele) whom he's promised to the Duke (Richard Roxburgh) in exchange for financial support. When introductions turn into mistaken identities, the results are sexual innuendo, falling in love with the wrong man, a gun chase and... a rock musical?
Like a jukebox with a short circuit, Director Baz Luhrmann creates song, dance, and dialogue by piecing together over thirty popular songs from the twentieth century. His quirky anachronisms range from The Sound Of Music to Like A Virgin, and induce a feeling of deja vu.
Meanwhile the love triangle is played against a continual burlesque show of garish carnival characters, gaudy lingerie-clad women, close-ups of CanCan dancers' pelvic action, depictions of alcohol and drug use (including Absinthe - a popular bohemian hallucinogenic beverage), prostitutes, cross-dressers, and abundant sexual banter.
Although the film "can can" show beauty exchanged for sensuality, love reduced to prostitution, bohemian freedom trapping Satine into longingly singing "One Day I'll Fly Away," and the bitter truth: "Don't fall in love with a woman who sells herself- it always ends bad," young sentimental viewers may miss these messages in the movie's romantic music and hypnotic elements. Parents concerned about the abundant sexual content should say "don't don't " to Moulin Rouge.Directed by Baz Luhrmann. Starring Ewan MacGregor Nicole Kidman. Running time: 97 minutes. Theatrical release June 21, 2001. Updated October 20, 2010
Get details on profanity, sex and violence in Moulin Rouge here.
Moulin Rouge Parents Guide
The Moulin Rouge has been an infamous part of Parisian nightlife since it opened its doors in 1889 and actually had a large elephant with a room inside it. Toulouse Lautrec (portrayed in this film), a famous artist that came out of the bohemian movement, was a frequent visitor to the cabaret. His life, shortened by alcohol addiction, is credited for establishing anti-socialism as a stereotype for the modern artist.
Do you feel artistic people must abandon mainstream society and use mind-altering substances to be creative? Can you think of any famous people who have followed Luatrec's formula for success, who have also had their lives end tragically?

Blackberry 10 is starting to see the release of a lot of games and content, and this is good news for everyone. Unfortunately, it can get difficult trying to pick out the cream of the crop. That's why we're here, to help you pick out which games and apps are worth your time and hard earned money.
This next title is a fantastic puzzle game for the Blackberry Z10, which offers a great way to kill some extra time. It's called Neon Blitz, and rightfully so because a lot of the game is set on a simple black backdrop with flashing neon lights in the foreground. Man are they attractive, though.
There's no story or advanced gameplay mechanics. In fact, the premise is quite simple you just use stars to draw lines and shapes in a specific amount of time. The stars basically act as your pencil or pen, and you must drag them using connect-the-dots style methods to draw various shapes, images and pictures.
The real kicker is that you only have 60 seconds to complete as many drawings as you possibly can. After the 60 second timer reaches its peak you are then given a total score. The idea is to get as high a score as possible, before moving on. As you progress, you feel the urge to continuously try harder to increase those scores, especially since you can compare them with other Blackberry users.
Interestingly enough, the game also includes Scoreloop support so that you can compare scores with friends through Blackberry Games. It's like a persistent online leaderboard, if you don't already know what that is. You can set personal goals to compete against others who have higher scores and points.
Neon Blitz is very colorful, and the visuals are quite astounding. It's easy to get caught up in them, which is where the game's difficulty comes into play. Of course, that's beside the fact that you can get easily flustered when trying to vigorously draw one of the images on the screen in the time allotted.
The earlier levels are easy, but the later levels in the game actually get pretty hairy. You are tasked with drawing, or tracing more complex shapes and images in order to progress.
- Super simple addictive gameplay with over 800 levels
- Get the highest score possible in a minute
- Unlock constantly updated biweekly contests and challenges
- Collect boosts and power ups to max out your score
- Challenge your friends via Scoreloop
- Check your standing in the global ranking
The app is also available for Android, but the Android version requires you to sign-in to a Facebook account in order to play. The Blackberry version, on the other hand, does not require a social account.
Neon Blitz is available now in Blackberry World for just $0.75. It's certainly worth the price, and it doesn't break the bank at all. Pick up Neon Blitz to help you kill some of that time you spend waiting for transportation, or something similar to happen.

On NPR's Morning Edition today you'll find the story "West Point Women: A Natural Pattern or a Camouflage Ceiling?" Reporter Larry Abramson leaves us with the impression that, in the words of Col. Ellen Haring (class of '84), "women are being excluded from a taxpayer-funded educational opportunity"—or, as Abramson puts it:
The Army says it wants more women in the officer corps. The question is whether more will join an organization where their [sic] are still perceived limits on their numbers.
Col. Haring has a point, or would have one if the aim of West Point were simply to afford young men and women an "educational opportunity." But the American people, through their representatives, presumably had a more precise goal in mind when they created West Point in the first place. National defense is a quintessential public good, defined as economists do, so we don't need to argue about whether the government should be in that business. To be sure, the purpose of an army officer corps, pursuant to that goal, may change as technology changes. But for the present and the foreseeable future, there are certain limits on the composition of the corps that are set by its very function. By virtue of that function, the Army, at least at the officer level, never has been and, one hopes, never will be a come-one-come-all equal opportunity employer. The American people would be ill-served were that to happen.

MIDDLEBURY — The historic Pulp Mill Bridge in Middlebury will be closed to all pedestrian and vehicular traffic for about three weeks beginning on Monday, Jan. 26, to allow for a work crew to repair damage caused by a single-vehicle accident that occurred in the bridge this past fall.
The covered bridge, which links the towns of Middlebury and Weybridge on Seymour Street Extension, will re-open on or about Monday, Feb. 16. Until then, motorists, bikers and walkers should seek alternative routes.
MIDDLEBURY — With time running out on its tenancy at the Edgewater Gallery at 1 Mill St., the Middlebury Studio School (MSS) has pinned down a new home in which to offer its diverse pottery, crafts and art classes.

VERGENNES — The Boys & Girls Club of Greater Vergennes is receiving $33,600 in federal grants to support its activities and programs as part of a statewide $550,000 bequest to the five Vermont Boys and Girls Clubs.
That statewide bequest, announced last week by Sen. Patrick Leahy, D-Vt., is nearly 10 percent more than the previous year.
MIDDLEBURY — Patricia A. Hannaford Career Center directors are proposing a 2015-2016 spending plan of $3,496,478, reflecting a 2.24-percent increase over this year's budget.
Despite the relatively small spending increase, the budget would result in a 14.7 percent boost in the tuition rate for enrollees from the three Addison County high schools for which the career center provides technical education programs.
BRANDON — Statewide education funding reform can't come soon enough for Otter Valley Union High School. Despite the fact that the OV board approved a proposed budget this month with a modest 1.83 percent spending increase, the union Homestead tax rate will increase by roughly 7 cents, or 4.6 percent.
The board on Jan. 7 approved a $10,718,131 spending plan for the 2015-2016 fiscal year, a $192,414 increase over the current spending plan.
BRISTOL — Local residents have until Monday to file the necessary paperwork to appear on the ballot for town offices or school boards, but ballots in each of the five towns that comprise the Addison Northeast Supervisory Union are already shaping up.
Anyone who wishes to run for a town or school office must submit a nominating petition at their town office by 5 p.m. on Monday, Jan. 26. Signatures from 1 percent of registered voters are required.
Voters will head to the polls on Town Meeting Day, March 3, to choose their representatives.
MIDDLEBURY — Middlebury's Two Brothers Tavern offers a cure for the winter blues just inside its entrance: Leafy green shoots sprout from a six-foot-tall column, and the soothing sound of running water fills the space between the front door and the restaurant's dining room and bar.
VERGENNES — The exceedingly fresh and new Bixby Library Computer Club in Vergennes will present "Exploring the Magic of Digital Radios" at its inaugural meeting on Wednesday, Feb. 4. The club has invited UTC electrical engineer Scott Fusare to present the history of hardware radios. The presentation will be held in the library's Community from 3:30-5:30 p.m. A group hacking of Scott's software-defined radio will follow the presentation.
ADDISON COUNTY — Bridport Grange No. 303 and the Addison County Farm Bureau have organized a series of breakfasts and lunches at which local lawmakers and residents can discuss what is going on in Montpelier during the legislative session.
The 2015 Legislative Breakfast series will debut on Monday, Feb. 2, and include a March 23 luncheon with Gov. Peter Shumlin.
VERGENNES — The Vergennes Development Review Board will on Feb. 2 get its first look at a scaled-down version of a preschool playground proposed for a small, city-owned parcel next to the Vergennes city pool.
Vergennes aldermen voted in December to reduce the playground's footprint on the 0.3-acre East Street lot by about 40 percent after neighbors and some other city residents complained about its location, impact on the area and $42,000 cost in the face of other priorities.

SUBMITTED: Thursday, September 09, 2010POSTED: Thursday, September 09, 2010
In addition to what others have already said, you apparently don't realize that a car is NOT an investment. So unless you put down a hefty down payment you are always going to be "upside down" on your car loan for a majority of the loan. Unfortunatly you have put yourself in worse shape with this new loan. Because you have just rolled over that negative equity, you are starting out even MORE upside down.
I wasn't ripped off by DriveTime except that I agreed to terms that now are VERY unreasonable.
- You probably should have empisized a different word in that sentence. You are correct in that they are NOW very unreasonable. Higher Risk = Higher Rates; Lower Risk = Lower Rates. So when you were a higher risk, if a company loaned you money at all, it would be at a higher rate.
There is also one other thing to watch out for, that is did this new dealer do a "SPOT" delivery. If so there is a very good chance you don't actually have a loan, which would be one explanation why your current loan is not paid off. If they did do this do not be surprised if in a few days they call you up trying to get you back to the dealership. Then when you get there, you find out you either need an additional downpayment and/or your payments went through the roof.
You need to contact your new dealer and find out why they haven't paid off the car. You also need to find out from them the name of the bank you have their loan with. If they don't give you that information, you can almost guarantee you don't have a loan yet.
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?

You chose to trade in an upside down vehicle rather than pay it off. If you are getting calls from DriveTime then a payment is due. Continue to make your payments on the vehicle you traded in until DriveTime receives the payoff from the other dealership. Otherwise the late payment goes on your credit report and ruins your hard work to clear up your credit.
Keep checking with the "new" dealership to find out exactly when the payoff was sent to DriveTime. Many of these regular dealers drag their feet on the payoff - which hurts you and your credit. Don't let your hard work go down the tubes. Keep your payments current with both dealerships until DriveTime receives AND acknowledges that payoff.
The above poster is right - you put yourself in a bad situation by trading in a upside down vehicle. I don't blame you for wanting to get away from a subprime lender, but the method you chose is rough.
You said: "There is no way to get away from DriveTime without negative equity,..," Trading an upside down vehicle for another car is one of the worst things you can do to yourself. You just turned a bad situation into something much worse. The better thing for you would have been to pay off the vehicle from Drive Time and then go buy one from somewhere else - with a loan financed through a credit union. You would not have negative equity. You would have a reasonable payment. And you would make sure to not get in deep over a vehicle again.

Here's what you said..."because my credit was not too great". High interest? You bet because you were a subprime borrower. You knew the terms, they were written in the contract, if you read it and you could have turned it down right then and there.
Second quote: "the purchase price was never told to me". Did you ask? If you did not know the price of the car, why did you sign the contract BEFORE knowing it?
The fact they are still calling you isn't their fault! Look to the next dealer for that! Why haven't they paid off the loan yet? As far as Drive Time knows, you are still on the hook for the loan and when you don't make the payments you agreed to, they will call you. Nothing illegal, unethical or immoral there. You are on the hook until somebody gets you off the hook.
And finally...
Do you fully understand what you did here? You've made all your payments on time, right? As such, you would never hear from them, so what was the problem? Do you think the remaining balance on the Drive Time loan has suddenly disappeared? No, its added to the loan of the car from the new dealer. In the end, you are paying for two cars but driving one. Not exactly a good business decision.
