- Lighter than existing Elise by 24kg - Costs £600 less than the Elise S - New driving aid for less experienced
The Lotus Elise is now even lighter - by a whole 24kg. The British sports car maker's best-selling current model now weighs in at a mere 852kg and it's even cheaper than the standard car. There aren't many other changes, but it's a fine addition to the range and a great entry-level model.
What's all the fuss about?
There are no changes to the 1.6-litre 134bhp engine and Lotus hasn't claimed any increase in performance as a result of the weight loss, so there's little to write home about there. The Elise Club Racer is £600 cheaper than the current Elise S, though. That brings the asking price down to £27,500.
Anything that stands out?
Lotus has introduced a Sport setting for the Dynamic Performance Management system (basically, a driving aid) that makes the Elise easier for less experienced drivers to manage on the road.
There's also an adjustable anti-roll bar and a choice of six colours for the exterior. These aren't huge changes, but they're likely to make the existing Elise more attractive and accessible to those who have yet to own a Lotus.
Estimated release date: Mid-2011
Estimated cost: £27,500

Those are cool. This should be moved to Coffee Clatch.
That's fine with me.
#62 is just an awesome image. I'd be thrilled to capture that with my DSLR. The lighting is the tricky part.
#68 is my favorite I think. Not quite sure what it is about it.

AKA Wormtounge
i am trying to figure out why they make me so sad. i think i would rather have those good times and problems than these good times and problems. the future looks like it would be really bright in those photo's, like everyone was working for the future and here we are taking it for granted. me anyways. the photos of tennessee remind of the places i lost to progress growing up there. the ones of montana are pretty close to how it looks now, except for suv's and cell phones. justin
Thanks for that Bodo.
Dulcius ex asperis
Justin, they were dark days.
Think about the early 1940's
The Great Depression was for all intensive purposes still going on....a full decade of economic ruin under Hoover and Roosevelt.
Thousands of Americans had been killed by the Japanese a few months earlier at Pearl Harbor.
Rationing of food and fuel was rampant and the entire country was shifting to war production.
Victory Gardens were the norm and in fact in at least one of the photo's there's a school poster promoting them.
Remember that there were NO new cars build throughout most of the war for civilian consumption.
Americans were concerned about a possible invasion of the US by the Japanese
German Spies were being caught and executed off the east coast and even a couple of subs were sunk off the east coast.
March of '42 was the biggest American defeat in history at Corregidor (Phillipines) and we had yet to win a significant action in the Pacific.
They were very dark days.
Milk Cows Not Taxpayers
I'll move it with the understanding that if it becomes a TG thread it goes back, ok?
Nobody ruins my day without my permission, and I refuse to grant it...
Sad, depressing, not happy images. Does anyone want to go back to that????? Thank god for the here & now.
Im really not that serious
In some ways, I wouldn't mind a little more of that and a little less of right now.
maybe it's nostalgia or romanticized view of the past? I don't know.
But a more simple life is appealing.

I disagree, we did it in the 80's....it was simple but not easy!! Takes lots of hard work to live the simple life, at least the type we where attempting did.Simply speaking, a simple life isn't all that simple.
Amazing pictures. It was hard to move on to the next one. The colors are extraordinary. Nothing like slide film. It was probably Kodak 25 or 64.

THE ROCKS DON'T LIE: A Geologist Investigates Noah's Flood. David R. Montgomery. W. W. Norton and Co., $26.95.
For most of the past 200 years, the expression "flood geology" has engendered something verging on contempt in many earth scientists. Yet prior to the groundbreaking ideas of James Hutton and John Playfair, the great inundation was the basis of most explanations for the land we see around us—topography, sediments, fossils, the miscellanea of geology.
Geomorphologist David R. Montgomery casts a critical yet sympathetic eye on flood myths, finding substance for them in Tibet, the Philippines and elsewhere, while systematically disassembling the universality of Noah's Flood. (The photograph above shows the spot in Tibet where an ancient glacial dam was breached.) The Rocks Don't Lie traces the history of the field of geology through the thinking that progressively debunked the great-flood myth and left behind, temporarily, what would be resurrected 150 years later as Creationism.
Picking up a book with the subtitle A Geologist Investigates Noah's Flood, I expected to learn geology and was not disappointed. The Rocks Don't Lie intertwines geologic history and the author's own field trips in an engrossing way. Montgomery offers a much richer story than I was taught as an undergraduate about the unconformity that Hutton found at Siccar Point, Scotland (which is featured on the book's cover).
I was not prepared, however, to be schooled on how the Bible has been interpreted over the past millennium. To offer just one example, the book recounts how John Calvin's views of Noah's Flood differed from those of Martin Luther. Luther turns out to be the literalist, stating that Moses "spoke properly and plainly, and neither allegorically nor figuratively." Calvin took a more restrained view: He interpreted the Genesis story literally but did not imagine that the great flood was responsible for the topography around him or the fossils in the rocks of his beloved Swiss Alps.
True to his field, Montgomery also shows flashes of considerable wit—albeit usually at the expense of the Creationists. Visiting the Creation Museum in Petersburg, Kentucky, he discovers that evolution has actually occurred since the original "creation orchard," as the museum terms it—but only among nonhuman creatures.
The book's extensive endnotes sometimes expand on points and sometimes document the sources of quotations. Following those references comes a substantive list of sources, which add to the opportunities for pursuing subjects further.
That's just a taste of what's in store for readers of this delightful volume. I came away far more enriched than I had expected to be.—David Schoonmaker

/// Kentucky-Wisconsin Final Four Tilt Sets Cable Ratings Record
The second of TBS' historic Final Four telecasts, a white-knuckle battle between No. 8 seed Kentucky and the No. 2 Wisconsin Badgers, put up record numbers, making it the all-time most-watched nonfootball sporting event on cable. According to Nielsen live-plus-same-day data, the Kentucky-Wisco nail-biter drew 16.3 million total viewers and a whopping 9.2 household rating, easily outgunning the previous cable record holder. (ESPN's telecast of the Japan-USA Women's World Cup Final in 2011 had set the previous high-water mark with an average draw of 13.5 million viewers.) The late game, which Kentucky clinched on yet another late three-pointer from Aaron Harrison, was down only slightly from last year's analogous matchup on CBS. The Michigan-Syracuse broadcast drew 17.1 million viewers and a 10.2 rating, making it the most-watched, highest-rated Final Four game since 2005. Kentucky's 74-73 victory scared up the fifth biggest Final Four delivery and rating in the last 10 years

ADEN, Yemen, Sept. 17 (Xinhua) -- Hundreds of Yemeni citizens demonstrated on Monday condemning an anti-Islam film on Youtube that mocks Islam and denigrates the Prophet Mohammad and rejecting the arrival of an extra 50 U.S. Marines for embassy protection.
Amidst very tight security measures in the southern port city of Aden, hundreds of Yemenis burned U.S. flags and chanted anti- American slogans in defense of the Islam's Prophet Mohammad and called upon the U.S. to respect Islam's sanctity.
Scores of angry protesters in Aden tried to reach some foreign consulates in the Khor Maksar neighborhood but were driven back by police with tear gas, witnesses near the scene said.
Witnesses and residents said that "police troops pushed back protesters away from the western consulates' gates and lobbed tear gas in an attempt to disperse the demonstrators."
The protesters also urged the immediate departure of a platoon of Marines the Pentagon sent to the Yemeni capital Sanaa and called for rejection of any U.S. military presence on Yemeni ground, activists said.
The United States has sent a Marine unit to protect and bolster security at the U.S. embassy in Sanaa, where police shot dead four protesters and wounded 48 others last Thursday.
On Saturday, the Yemeni parliament demanded departure of the U. S. Marines sent after embassy attack.
The escalation against the U.S. embassies in the Arab world came after a cinema house in California had shown a Hollywood film ridiculing Islam's Prophet Mohammad.
Since last Friday, thousands of protesters across the Arab countries by holding peaceful demonstrations have registered their protest over the anti-Islam film demanding punishment for the film producers.

Here's a really interesting little tidbit: Karl Rove confirms he's written a check to Marco Rubio, the conservative candidate for senator from Florida, who's running in that state's primary against Charlie Crist.
Crist was seen a conservative as far as I knew a couple of years ago. As governor of that state (which he still is, even though he's already said he'll run for Senate) he's been against gay marriage, against gay adoption, for gun rights, for capital punishment. Then he somehow became a moderate. How? He appeared on a stage with Obama once. He opposed the proto-fascist GOP attempt to play God on the Terri Schiavo case. These days, that's about enough. Also, he's apparently tried to be nice to black people. Out he goes.
Crist has been way ahead of Rubio, in polls and in money. Rove's move, and Jeb Bush's tacit backing of Rubio throughout, signals that the financial gates may now start to open in Rubio's behalf. I wouldn't doubt that there's an element here of Rove et al hoping to promote the Cuban guy. The retiring senator, Mel Martinez, is the GOP's only non-white national elected official.
But mostly on an emotional level, these people just have a need to punish any deviancy. They really are Leninists at heart. As I said to folks in Brighton last week, be happy you've got David Cameron. He doesn't appear to be certifiable.

The Western part of the United States is in the throes of a record-setting heat wave that is expected to continue through the week, with temperatures forecast to hit the 120s in some areas. The Weather Channel reports that extreme heat warnings and advisories have been expanded to eight states.
At least one fatality in Las Vegas has been linked to the heat, while scores of people have been treated for ailments caused by the extremely hot weather.
The scorching temperatures can cause potentially fatal heat stroke, and officials said people with no air-conditioning or who must work outdoors were particularly at risk.
Las Vegas on Saturday flirted with its all-time record of 117F (47C), as the mercury rose to 114F (46C) at the airport, said D.J. Hoffman, a meteorologist for private forecaster AccuWeather.com.
Record highs for the day fell in dozens of cities across the West, from Palm Springs to Oakland in California and on up the West Coast to Medford, Oregon.
...Death Valley posted a high on Saturday of 124F (51C), the National Weather Service reported. That's below the all-time world record of 134F (57C) set there on July 10, 1913, according to the National Park Service.
The ABC News report below discusses the soaring temperatures and goes through a list of symptoms that can help you determine whether you are suffering from a heat-related illness.

Zero Dark Thirty
Read Our Full Review & Parent Discussion Questions Here
Zero Dark Thirty
Rating & Content Info
Why is Zero Dark Thirty rated R? Zero Dark Thirty is rated R by the MPAA for strong violence including brutal disturbing images, and for language.
Violence: We see a man being tortured by CIA agents who use water-boarding techniques (while he is held down a cloth is placed over his face and water is poured on the cloth, causing him to choke). Later, with a female agent present, his pants are removed and an agent teases him about defecating. He is left hanging by his arms while naked from the waist down (rear nudity seen). Other scenes show detainees being interrogated while physically bound, but without the explicit details. Bomb blasts in three scenes leave people with bloody injuries. Militants enter a building and begin shooting people at random. During a military operation, personnel enter a home seeking a key individual; a few other people are shot while horrified women and children look on. Frequent verbal altercations occur, including demeaning remarks intended to extract information from detainees. A man is forced to wear a dog collar and walk like a dog.
Sexual Content: During a torture scene a man is seen naked from the rear.
Language: Frequent use of sexual expletives, as well as other scatological and general profanities.
Drugs/Alcohol: Frequent cigarette use throughout. Some drinking is depicted.

HP G4050 scanner 06/04/2013
This review is from: HP Scanjet G4050 (L1957A#B1H) Up to 4800 x 9600 dpi USB Flatbed Scanner
Once you get it to work, it's amazing for the money.
First software installation killed my HDD. It turned out that the instructions for installation provided online in N. America and on the disk were incomplete. The correct installation instructions were on the Italian site I think. After that I just had to rebuild the drive.
Other Thoughts:
This is a very good scanner for the money, but the drivers are definitely an issue that I hope are now sorted. I bought another recommended piece of software after my HDD crashed just to be sure that the scanner worked.

"It's a contact sport," jokes Nick as the canal boat I'm driving nudges the side of the narrow waterway under one of the hundreds of stone bridges near Macclesfield in England's north west.
You can't really call canal boating through England's myriad waterways a contact sport, but there can be a fair bit of argey bargey, even if it's not intentional.
Navigating a 12,000kg, 20m-long canal boat through narrow gaps, especially under bridges or round tight bends (or, thanks to the curious sense of humour of Irish construction workers, under bridges built on tight bends), can feel a little like trying to thread a needle with a rope, but the boats' steel hulls are more than sturdy enough to handle a few nudges against the sides.
The fact you're travelling at a leisurely 6 km/h (locals get quite agitated if speed demons travel faster and throw up unnecessary wash) also means you're unlikely to end up in a mangled mess.
The United Kingdom has some 3500km of canals, in a complex network of locks, aqueducts and tunnels, built in the 18th century to transport goods from town to town.
While the arrival of the railways supplanted the waterways less than a century later, today they are proving ever more popular with holiday-makers looking for a relaxing, slow-paced way to see the countryside.
Macclesfield Canal, in County Cheshire, is widely touted as the country's most scenic canal, taking in as it does several old, well-preserved Victorian textile mills, Tudor homes, castellated ruins, abandoned coal mines, woods, rolling farmland - and of course, those picturesque, if tricky to navigate bridges.
As you putter along admiring the views, or occasionally going ashore to stroll around the villages and towns, it often feels as though time is standing still - although that could have much to do with your speed limit.
Everybody on - and even around - the canals is forced to slow down and watch the world go by, peering into the many large estates or watching the joggers as they pound the bank-side tracks, once used by teams of draught horses.
The pace is so appealing, many have taken to living on canal boats rather than using them just for holidays.
Given that some houseboats are outfitted with central heating, DVD players, a fridge and shower it's easy to see why. They might be narrow, but they have most of the comforts of home and some hold up to six people. They're also very easy to drive.
Other than those darn curved bridges, navigating the locks is the trickiest aspect of canal boating - but also the most fascinating. The boat is eased into what resembles a holding pen.
Then the lock is opened at one end to let water either in or out, depending on the direction you're travelling, so you're raised or lowered to meet the level of the canal on the other side of the lock.
It can result in a traffic jam as boats wait their turn, but it's a lot more enjoyable than being stuck on Auckland's Harbour Bridge in rush hour.
In fact, the social aspect of canal boating is one of its highlights. While you're waiting your turn in the lock, chat with neighbouring boaties.
Or hop off and slake your rising thirst in one of the countless pubs lining the canal banks. You won't have any problems with drink-driving with the boat tied up safely outside overnight.
Oh - that's the other tricky bit - stopping, particularly in the dark. Just take it slowly, after all, it's not like you can put the handbrake on.
Never mind, what's one more "nudge" against that sturdy hull?
- Michael Brown travelled to the UK courtesy of Flight Centre.
Canal boating is best done in the summer as canals, often barely a metre deep in places, can freeze over in winter. That said, some parts of Macclesfield Canal, near to England's Peak District include the highest points of the whole canal system. This means water levels can get pretty low in summer, forcing the closure of some locks. Check conditions before planning your route.

|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
Something's going on in the NFL. The AFC West is completely flopped from last season, New Orleans lost at home to Cleveland, and the Cowboys and Vikings are still not too good, and Green Bay is borderline. At least we still have one winless team in Buffalo to root for to fail. The Colts are in 3rd, the Giants are in 1st, and the Seahawks are once again leading the weakest division in football (well, maybe the AFC West is worse). So much is different this season, it's hard to keep heads or tails of it all, which is why you don't call the coin toss in the air anymore. Anything could happen before season's end, so let's look at what would happen if the playoffs started as of Tuesday, October 26:
The Giants dropped the Cowboys in Dallas, but it wasn't pretty. When Tony Romo goes down with a collar bone injury, you really have to take it to them, but some interceptions and special team lapses stopped that from happening, as well as two almost converted onside kicks by the Cowboys. New York is #1 for now, but I don't see them keeping it up for long.
In see-saw fashion, Atlanta managed to hold off Cincinnati. They've got a good passing game, rushing attack, defense, and even kicker. When you're in the same division as the defending Super Bowl champions, and you can take control like the Falcons have, you're doing something right.
This would be a rematch from the same round with the same seeds from three years ago. Seattle has been looking surprisingly good this year considering the expectations. Washington took Chicago back down a few pegs, and has also been looking much better than people thought. When it's close like this, you go with the home team, but don't be surprised if Shanahan still has some tricks up his sleeve.
Tampa Bay only beat St. Louis by one, and now their coach has the cajones to say they're the best team in the NFC when they're not even the best team in their division. Good, but not great. Chicago is the same way after starting 4-1. But they still have a better quarterback situation come playoff time, and they now have Julius Peppers. Good luck, Tampa quarterbacks I've never heard of.
Never before has an idle team look so dominant. The Jets have a good quarterback that was supposed to be mediocre, and Darrelle Revis will be completely healthy again; the bye week helps. Sure, Shonne Green isn't what fantasy owners though he'd be, but the rushing game is still there. Here's your current Super Bowl favorite.
Never before has a team had such a great looking loss that was called a win. Pittsburgh had to rely on referees overruling a fumble to beat the Dolphins. But the fact of the matter is the Steelers are still a very dangerous team, especially with their rapist (unproven, technically) back at quarterback. They'll be right up there contesting with the Jets for the right to represent the AFC in the Super Bowl.
The Titans once again ritualistically murdered the NFC, this time claiming the Eagles as victims. They're making the AFC South a very interesting three-team race, which could very well be a four-team race by the end of the season. Baltimore, on the other hand, lost to the Bills, but were handed a dead ball (stoppage of forward progress) by the referees to get the win. Don't get me wrong; I still like Baltimore to advance based on offensive strength, but not far enough for their liking.
Against San Diego, New England showed why their defense is highly suspect. Not to mention they keep *bleeping* up 4th down by calling the wrong play, not to mention not pounding it forward on 3rd down beforehand. Kansas City, meanwhile, layethed the smacketh down on Jacksonville's candy ass. Despite the defensive troubles (which only looked non-existent due to San Diego's offensive troubles), New England still has an extremely potent offense. Kansas City hasn't been a real noticeable threat since dinosaurs roamed the Earth, so Matt Cassel and Co. should still have problems when faced with an experienced team.

My long haired cat hates being brushed too, but she doesn't fight me as much as yours seems to. I always distract my cat by either letting her eat from the tub of catnip or I'll distract her with a toy. If nothing works, you may have to take him to a professional groomer.
Twinkle answered on 4/2/12. Helpful? / 0
I agree with Twinkle. Izzie tolerates being brushed for about 15 seconds then bites and claws. And I have brushed him since he was a little brat. I have to caution you that with an NFC, it's imperative that he be brushed. I brush my cats all evening long--whichever is on my lap at the time. The sessions are very short but very often. By the end of the evening, they're mostly all brushed all over and I'm still in once piece. If a long haired cat isn't groomed regularly, the owner does need to find a good cat groomer. Delilah was a mass of mats and snarls and had to be shaved. She's never forgiven me. 8-)

Next U-M Event: Saturday, Jan. 30 -- vs. Iowa (Crisler Arena), 4:35 p.m. (TV: Big Ten Network)
ANN ARBOR, Mich. -- An alley-oop layup by senior DeShawn Sims (Detroit, Mich./Pershing) with 1.5 seconds left fell off the rim and the University of Michigan men's basketball team came up short in its upset bid of Michigan State (No. 5 AP/No. 5 AP/USA Today) on Tuesday night (Jan. 26), falling, 57-56, inside a sold-out Crisler Arena. The Wolverines held a 56-55 lead before a jumper from Michigan State guard Kalin Lucas with 3.5 seconds remaining gave Michigan State the lead and the eventual victory.
Freshman Darius Morris (Los Angeles, Calif./Windward) converted a fast-break layup that gave Michigan a 56-53 lead with 2:38 to play, but the Wolverines were unable to score again. Michigan State forward Raymar Morgan, who led the Spartans with 20 points, put in a bucket of his own with 1:09 left to cut the lead to one and the Wolverines missed two shots in the final minute of action before Lucas' jumper.
Michigan matched its in-state rival shot for shot in the second half of a game that featured 17 lead changes as neither team held more than a three-point advantage for the final eight minutes. Although allowing the Spartans to shoot 49 percent (24-for-49) from the floor, it was the Wolverine defensive effort that kept it close as they forced 18 turnovers that led to 23 points. Michigan slowed down the Spartan attack by controlling the tempo and holding a 13-2 advantage in fast-break points.
The boisterous Crisler Arena crowd was treated to a closely contested opening half with neither team establishing a double-digit lead. After scoring the first basket of the game, Michigan trailed for the next seven minutes before a Sims baseline jumper put U-M back on top, 15-14, with 11:21 to play. A three-pointer from junior Anthony Wright (Sterling, Va./Oak Hill Academy), followed by five straight points from junior Manny Harris (Detroit, Mich./Redford), the Big Ten's leading scorer (19.2 ppg), gave Michigan its biggest lead of the half at 23-16 with 9:38 to play. Harris was reinstated following a suspension that forced him to sit out last Saturday's game against Purdue. He did not start against Michigan State but played 36 minutes. The Wolverines led at halftime, 27-25.
Michigan State held the shooting advantage over the Wolverines in the first half, 41 percent compared to 29 percent, but the aggressive Michigan defense forced the Spartans into 11 turnovers that led to 15 points. Lucas was held to just two points (1-for-5 FG) in the opening 20 as the Michigan State offense struggled to find a rhythm. Morgan picked up the slack for the Spartans, accounting for 13 of Michigan State's 25 points.
Following an 8-0 Michigan State run from 12:46 to 11:38 in the second half, Sims and Harris stepped up with back-to-back triples to cut the lead to one (46-45) with 8:15 to play in the contest. As the pressure built and the Spartans continuing to answer the Wolverine surge, it was Sims and Harris that kept Michigan in the game. During an eight-minute stretch, the two players combined to score 17 straight points for U-M and had 22 of the team's 29 points in the second half. Sims led Michigan with 19 points in the game, while Harris contributed 16 points and five assists.
The Wolverines will look to bounce back when they host Iowa this Saturday (Jan. 30) at 4:35 p.m. inside Crisler Arena. The game will be broadcast on the Big Ten Network.

Only on ABC-7: Waterfalls & Desert Oasis near El Paso
Lincoln National Forest jewel: Cicala Special Report At The Waterfalls
LINCOLN NATIONAL FOREST, New Mexico - Moments before ABC-7 Anchor Paul Cicala took a plunge into the refreshing waterfall behind him, around a 90-minute drive from El Paso, he eagerly shouted: "Next time you are that borderland resident who angrily proclaims, 'There's nothing to do around here' ... Well, think again! Be positive, and truly treasure and take pride in the border southwest."
Paul Cicala lugged a video camera through the trails of the Lincoln National Forest to show residents of the El Paso-Las Cruces-Juarez area a desert oasis with a 20-foot waterfall.
The majestic location is tucked in a small canyon in between Alamogordo and Cloudcroft, New Mexico, where the Fresnal creek runs right through.
Don't forget!! There's a lot to do in our borderland.
You just have to open your mind and, well ... "Just Do It!"

How does schneider expect them drivers to pay back their company paid training. And all these responders are complete A**Hole with their judgement mental attitude toward me. I'm glad i didn't go to schneider crap school.

$800 to $900 a week equals 4000 miles a week hahaha!!!

You gotta be on drugs 99% of company drivers here make less then $300/week takehome. The runs average 200 t0 300 miles a day and plan to be stuck in the northeast dealing with killer traffic and having a hell of a time finding a parking spot too boot at night.
Don't believe me? Walk upto any pumpkin truck driver you see and ask him the average length of his runs and where he's spending most of his time driving. 99% of the time your are going to hear a horror story about wat a bummer it is to be trapped in this hellhole company.
That previous post was a complete fabrication no doubt by a company brown noser who lies when he says he's making more the $300 a week. All i gotta say is ask around i talk to company drivers all the time and the story is always the same that working for Schitter National blows.
And in order to take home $900 a week when the average driver is makin 36cents a mile you would have to be driving around 4000 miles a week every week and if your gullible enough to believe that you gonna end up stuck in a complete loser job here.

#3 UPDATE EX-employee responds
It is Only Fair to Hear Both Sides of the Story
SUBMITTED: Wednesday, May 29, 2013POSTED: Wednesday, May 29, 2013
I am an ex-employee of Schneider National Carriers. I think it is only fair that the general public should be able to read more than one viewpoint regarding this company in order to make an informed decision about whether they want to work for this company, or not.
I began working for Schneider National after leaving USA Truck (where some weeks after my deductions I actually owed the company money instead of receiving a check and I almost never got home). From my first day at the experienced hire orientation, I could tell this company was different. They were very "by the book" when it comes to doing the job, stressing safety above all else. They provided such ammentities as a company car at the operating centers, business class accomodations, a concierge desk, a physical therapy clinic, lots of clean shower rooms, and a cafeteria. The drivers that I spoke with had been driving for Schneider for years (most of them for eight years and much more), and they were very happy there.
I was hired, and went to work out of Obetz, Ohio as an OTR longhaul driver. I had a wonderful driver business leader, and my paychecks varied each week based on miles- but they were good checks (usually between $600-$800 per week). They paid me for detention and layover, paid me my sign-on bonus, stop-off pay was great for multi-stop loads, and they got me home when they said they were going to. Attitude went a long way for me. I tried to consistently maintain a positive attitude, do my job the way they wanted it done,
kept the door shut and the wheels turning, and provided a professional level of customer service to all of the customers I dealt with. True, things happen- I did sit and wait for a relay that never took place once, and I did get a few loads I would rather not have been asigned, and lost a few for no apparent reason as well and had to wait a couple of hours for a new one. But that's truck driving. Those things happen with any company. I never waited more than a few hours for a new load assignment.
When I had a problem, they always took care of it- and treated me with respect while doing it. When they had to put me in a motel, it was always business class and it was paid for. When I got sick at an operating center, they drove me to the doctor and then to pick up my prescriptions. One time when I had to wait all day for a trailer repair and was too tired to make the delivery on time because of dealing with repairs all day, they rearranged my appointment time because they agreed with me that safety was more important than a timely delivery. "Nothing we do is worth getting anyone hurt," is what they told me. I did not make a habit of this- it only happened once. The point is that they took care of me, and I enjoyed my time there.
Maybe some of you would count me as a brown noser because I believe in being a professional and my experience with Schneider was a good one. You can call me whatever you want. I would rather be called that than to be categorized as a crybaby. There are professionals out there who take their jobs seriously and know how to do what it takes to get the job done and form positive relationships with their coworkers, and there are disgruntled former drivers and crybabies out there who would rather blame anyone but themselves for their failures.
I know that some people do have legitimate complaints, and I am not including them in that second category. But it is only fair to have all of the facts before making an informed decision- and I could not read the comments I saw hear about Schneider without sharing my experience as well. The author of the above says "If you got half a brain, do not work for Schitter National." I agree- If you have half of a brain, then a professional company like Schneider doesn't need you (and the general public would be safer without you sharing the road with them while driving a seventy foot long vehicle). GO ORANGE!!!!

Where I stayed
Peter Torot Centre
Getting used to laid back lifestyle here in the New Ireland province. There's plenty of time to kill after finishing at the hospital for the day. I usually go down to the markets or play a bit of rugby with some of the guys before jumping in the ocean for an evening swim or 'wash wash'. I went for a walk earlier this week around 'big nusa' island where I discovered beautiful beaches, dense tropical vegetation and the historic remnants of Japanese WWII AA guns and bunkers.
This week saw the annual 'council of elders' conference held at the Peter Torot centre. The three day event is put on by the current New Ireland governor in the build up to elections and brings together hundreds of people from islands and villagers from all over the province
Every night during the event they would put on a massive feast with fresh pish (fish), mumu (pork cooked for hours on hot stones)kakaruk (chicken), mud crabs, kumu (fresh vegetables), prut (fruit), etc. Kai kai em swit nogut tru! For some reason the people show too much respect towards me and even ushered me to get the food off the table where all the dignitaries were sitting. I was lucky enough to say hi to the former PNG prime minister and provincial governor.
Each day they had traditional malagan dances and singing
As for the hospital, I spent the week in the maternity ward which has been very eye opening and rewarding. Despite being a small hospital they get reasonably busy due to the high reproductive rate in PNG. Unfortunately maternal and child mortality is also much higher than in Australia. I got to experience firsthand some examples of the factors contributing to these figures. Often women get referred from rural health centres with only a little antenatal care and it's a painstaking challenge trying to establish some sort of accurate gestational age and estimated delivery date. C-sections are reserved basically for cases if there is significant fetal distress, and babies are commonly delivered in breech position. The labour ward also lacks any privacy with three beds and no curtains.
A lot of the theatre time is dedicated to patients getting their tubes tied (one of the most common family planning methods). Unfortunately the main theatres have been 'under rennovation' indefinitely so all surgery is shared in a small theatre next to the labour ward
Anaemia of pregnancy is really common here especially with the high prevalence of malaria (all mothers get antimalarias, ferrous sulphate, and folic acid). There are some people walking around asymptomatic with Hb levels of as low as 4g/dl. Unfortunately blood isn't the most abundant thing in the hospital. One post partum haemorrhage patient this week urgently needed blood…the only blood available was positive for syphilis and the decision was made to transfuse her and then treat her after. There are a number of other examples of events that you would never see in Australia. One mother was planned to get her tubes tied but started becoming Short of breath. Within a couple of hours we had to rush to her side room because her airway became occluded and she was coughing up blood. Turns out she had a massive abscess under her tongue which had compromised her airway. The general surgeon wasn't in the hospital and the O&G consultant was left to do an incision and drainage right there in the dirty side room…long way from the uterus! The same day a baby was delivered with a gastrocele. Unfortunately with the lack of specialty facilities and surgery the poor little thing died of sepsis a couple days later. The nurses and doctors in the hospital are lovely and keep teasing me to learn more Tok Pisin.
I'm going this weekend up to Laraibina village on the East Coast for a taste of village life and to meet my new adopted PNG family.

The Marmol Series is a glazed porcelain, manufactured in the United States. The Marmol Series contains 32% pre-consumer recycled content. The use of digital print technology allows the beauty and extensive color variations in natural marble to be emulated in this series. It is available in three colors and two finishes. The three sizes are the same in the honed finishes. Due to the fact that the polished finish is rectified, each of the two sizes will be slightly smaller than the honed finish. There will be noticeable variations in color and movement between pieces. Therefore, it is important and recommended that a range of this product be viewed before finalizing a purchase. Grout release is recommended for the polished finish, prior to grouting so grout powders do not fill pores in the tile surface, which can attract dirt when walked upon. This series is suitable for residential and commercial applications. When mixing sizes within a series, shade, texture and calibration differences should be expected.
The Marmol Series is Green SquaredSM Certified. All products bearing the Green SquaredSM Certified certification mark have been assessed for conformance to the ANSI A138.1 standard by a recognized third-party certification body. Green SquaredSM is a certification program developed by the Title Council of North America (TCNA) as part of its ongoing initiative to support the efforts of producers, purchasers and policy makers to improve the environmental and social sustainability of products and services, based on either established and/or advanced scientific principles, practices, materials and standards.

Many thanks Kit,
Sorry, I made a spelling mistake in the previous email, I should have said
xtgls instead of xtslg.
Again many thanks for you answer.
I know that the following question is a little out of scope (since it does
not relate to the stata commands), but just in case it is easy for you to
reply...Do you know where I can find a reference justifying "that there is
no reason for a MA error structure to induce bias in the OLS coefficients"?
It would of great help. Indeed, some referees did not like my overlapping
regressions because of the bias cused by the MA errors in the point
estimates. (My regressions were of the type: xtreg, fe cluster) Therefore,
if I can justify it would be just perfect.
Many thanks again

Nice and centrally placed apartment close to public transportation and shopping. Well equipped and with 2 toilets (a big plus when you are 4) - could do with more lamps in the bedroom and the madrasses are very hard. Nice welcome by the host.
Very cozy place in a very good location. Very quiet and clean.
Nice apartment and very nice neighborhood. The service is excellent.
This is an appartment for 2 adults and 1 kid, not for 4 persons.
The bed they placed is a couch-sleep combination. It's 1.70m by 1.20m and a very low quality fake leather couch.
They agreed that it's not a bed for a couple. So I asked for a better option, they couldn't give me. I needed to book a hotel they told me. I asked for my money back, they could't give me they told me.
We are very disapointed.
The apartment was nice but the bathroom without window and so small was unconfortable. We were 4 person but the couch was not for two person was really unconfortable, the place was pretty quiet but in the week we were there, there were noisy construction in front of the flat. The underground is to a walking distance, very convenient, in a short time downtown is achievable. The girl who welcomed us was very nice and gave us a lot of information. Anyway it was a good vacation .
Very nice area.
The apartment functioned very well, but the old television was a joke and WIFI was extremely poor.
Nice apartment in a calm street in a cool area. It's close to shopping, cafes/restaurants and public transport. If you have any questions the owner answers quickly and is really friendly. We enjoyed our stay here very much!
Thank you for a very pleasant stay at your apartment.
We stayed there for 3 nights, and was 4 adults and two toddlers.
The apartment is located in a urban neighborhood very close to the Metro and S-bahn.
We will defiantly come back.
Thank you
The appartment is well located and is comfortable except for the bed which is really terrible : two mattresses, one on top of the other and hollow like two bathtubs. Good for people who have no back problem !!!
There are large windows, but you will not see the sky, because it is in a courtyard and there is a high building in front.
Comfortable and spacious inner city apartment in a great town.

Inspirational 'i'
With the i30, Hyundai introduces a new model range, firmly positioned in the European lower medium or C segment. Designed for those who want stylish practicality with an elegant flair, the i30 is aimed at customers who want something different, but with proven integrity and quality.
Now finally available in Malta, the i30, launched last Thursday, is an ambassador of the new Hyundai brand in Europe, the carmaker said in a statement.
"i" stands for inspiration, one of the three pillars of Hyundai's European brand promise (quality, self-assured, inspiring). But "i" also stands for intelligence and integrity, and that is what customers have come to expect from Hyundai; and for innovative, which is what the i30 is all about.
In all these forms "i" lies at the core of any Hyundai brand promise. From this promise the "i" badge is a natural development.
Flowing curves, emphasised by strong character lines, highlight the broad stance and long wheelbase of the i30. The clearly defined, unbroken waistline unifies the classic proportions.
The distinguished frontal styling, sporting but non-aggressive, represents the new design identity of Hyundai. The pronounced dual intake seems to mould effortlessly into the bonnet and A pillar lines.
The upsweep of the rear window lines mirrors the lower character line. The sculpted rear appearance is achieved by a combination of qualified curves that extend the waistline and reflect the curvaceous front and side styling.
The long wheelbase and generous width of the i30, combined with Hyundai's acknowledged skill in interior space packaging have produced an interior fully focused on class-leading comfort, functionality and practicality.
Dynamic refinement has been applied to every aspect, including air management, the light airy ambience, seating comfort and intuitive ergonomics.
There is a choice of three petrol and three diesel engines, starting with the 1.4-litre 105 bhp petrol and the 1.6-litre 90 bhp Diesel.
The i30 was conceived from the beginning as a driver's car. The clarity of the instruments, tilt and telescope steering wheel, supportive sporty seats and optimal gearshift positioning are all evidence of this.
For extra clarity, LCD technology has been used for the central info display and the instrument panel mounted display and warning lights.
Two-tone interior trim, with special attention to the upholstery fabrics and materials has produced an elegant and fresh, highly 'European' interior environment.
To mark the launch of this important model, Hyundai is offering free weekend breaks for two on half-board and usage of spa facilities at the exclusive Fortina five-star spa resort hotel to all those clients who will be purchasing an i30 during the Open Week, which starts tomorrow.
During Open Week the Hyundai showroom will be operating on extended opening hours, Monday to Friday from 8.30 a.m. to 8 p.m. and on Saturday from 8.30 a.m. to 3 p.m.
For more information on the Hyundai i30 visit the Hyundai showroom in Birkirkara Road, Birkirkara, or hyundai.com.mt

When it comes to virtual desktop infrastructure (VDI), there's a lot to think about. You have to manage the network, store user data and monitor performance -- not to mention recover desktops if they fail.
As you deploy virtual desktops, make sure you're securing them properly, backing up their data and maintaining a solid network connection. Once your environment is in place, it's critical to monitor performance to ensure a quality end-user experience. Finally, have a disaster recovery plan ready in case of virtual desktop hiccups.
It's hard to know how to go about accomplishing all those tasks, but these VDI best practices are here to help. Check out each guide for tips on security, storage, network management and more.
Table of contents:
The complete guide to VDI storage management
Storage load affects virtual desktop performance more than any other factor, making VDI storage management a critical task.
To get the best end-user experience from your virtual desktops, you need to choose the right storage system. First, decide whether you want to use the existing array or buy all new storage. There are lots of vendors and capacity planning tools to consider. You should also take into account IOPS requirements, costs and virtual machine (VM) provisioning needs.
Once you've got the right storage in place, keep tabs on the ups and downs of your virtual desktop infrastructure (VDI). Virtual desktop loads are more inconsistent than physical ones, depending on user activity, and storage bottlenecks are common.
In this guide, learn best practices for selecting, configuring and allocating VDI storage to get the strongest performance out of your environment.
VDI network management guide
Desktop administrators may love the benefits of VDI, but data center network managers might not be so ecstatic.
Virtual desktop infrastructure (VDI) adds a significant load to your network, and throughput could suffer. You want to make sure you have enough bandwidth to accommodate virtual desktop connections, while at the same time ensuring low latency.
Sound a little tricky? It sure is.
It's also challenging to deliver graphics-heavy applications over the network. You'll need acceleration technology to get the best performance from wide area networks (WANs). Overcome these challenges with the resources in this VDI network management guide.
Virtual desktop security guide
With the variety of endpoints in corporate environments today, security is more important than ever. Plus, users are becoming increasingly independent, making it difficult for IT to manage passwords, application settings and network access.
Virtual desktop infrastructure (VDI) can make your desktops either more secure or less so. Storing data on VDI servers in the data center is more secure than storing it locally on the user's endpoint, and administrators have greater control over desktop and app distribution. At the same time, allowing users to access virtual desktops remotely puts your network at risk.
To deal with those extra vulnerabilities, you need solid virtual desktop security measures. Learn how to protect the network, implement single sign-on, secure backup files and more with this guide.
Guide to VDI performance monitoring
To keep virtual desktops in line, you need VDI performance monitoring tools.
Virtual desktop infrastructure (VDI) can run into any number of problems, from those related to network connectivity to application performance to user satisfaction. Luckily, monitoring your environment helps identify issues, alert admins, suggest solutions and even prevent VDI problems in the first place. Just remember, there are some different components to consider when monitoring virtual desktops as opposed to traditional PCs.
This VDI monitoring guide offers resources to help you gather performance data, set alerts and choose the best monitoring tools for your environment.
VDI disaster recovery guide
Just like traditional desktops, the time will probably come when you'll have to recover your virtual desktops.
Disaster recovery for virtual desktop infrastructure (VDI) requires many of the same measures you'd take for conventional PCs: backup methods and careful planning. In fact, VDI can make it even easier to recover data because information isn't stored on the end-user devices.
Still, there are some additional considerations for VDI disaster recovery. Do you have enough network bandwidth to deal with the recovery migration? Which applications do your users absolutely need access to post-disaster?
This guide covers virtual desktop recovery techniques, planning measures and tips for backing up your desktops.

How to Prepare for Your PRK/LASEK Procedure
During PRK/LASEK surgery, our skilled Long Island doctors use computer-controlled pulses of ultraviolet light to vaporize very thin layers of corneal tissue. Though the changes are microscopic, they are enough to sufficiently flatten the cornea (for patients with nearsightedness), steepen the cornea (for farsightedness), and/or smooth out corneal irregularities (for astigmatism). The surgery itself takes about one minute per eye.
The Long Island surgeons at North Shore Eye Care will examine your eyes before surgery to determine how much laser ablation (or tissue removal) you require. To do this, we use the iDESIGN WaveScan System to analyze the eye and create a "map" of your unique visual system. Using this information, we are able to create a computerized guide that precisely directs the PRK laser when our eye doctor surgically reshapes your cornea.

The Russian connection: See all our coverage | Read about our investigation
[MoJo has more primary coverage: Read my report on Michigan's gubernational results, and Nick Baumann's take on Missouri's primaries for US House and Senate.]
"This is the final curtain: the ending of the Kilpatrick dynasty."
So concluded Detroit political consultant Eric Foster in the Detroit Free Press' report on the primary defeat of Rep. Carolyn Cheeks Kilpatrick.
Cheeks Kilpatrick, a seven-term Democrat, represented Michigan's 13th congressional district, which includes large parts of Detroit. Her defeat is largely attibutable to one of the worst scandals in that city's history. The salacious saga centered on her son, Kwame, Detroit's disgraced former mayor, who had an affair with his chief of staff, lied about it under oath, and spent millions in city funds fighting public disclosure of text messages and secret settlements. The former chairwoman of the Congressional Black Caucus, Cheeks Kilpatrick lost to state Senator Hansen Clarke; at 11:45 p.m., Clarke had 46 percent of the vote and Cheeks Kilpatrick 40 percent. The Free Press described Hansen's win as a "stunning upset victory."
Here's more from the Freep as the results roll in:
The defeat could spell the end of a 14-year congressional career for Kilpatrick, who has been dogged by the legal problems faced by her son, former Detroit Mayor Kwame Kilpatrick, now serving time for violating probation on state felony charges and awaiting trial on federal charges of tax evasion and mail and wire fraud.
The race has been among the most watched races in the state.
A subdued crowd at Kilpatrick's election night party in downtown Detroit waited for the final numbers to roll in, hoping that absentee ballots might reverse the trend...
At Clarke's party at the Centaur Bar in Detroit, the mood was much more upbeat. Cheering erupted as Clarke greeted the crowd.
"What's missing is a congressman willing to work in the city," said Detroit city councilman Gary Brown. "I hope he can bring the Michigan delegation in Washington together."

Kalinga clothing is brightly coloured. Men wear jackets, blankets, and loincloths, while women don jackets, skirts, and belts. This type of skirt cloth is a 'gilamat', and it is characterised by horizontal stripes bordered by decorated vertical panels along the sides. Some are embroidered and embellished with beads and shells. While the gilamat originated in one part of the central mountain area on the Philippine island of Luzon, it is now generally used among the Kalinga people across the highland region.

The Crusaders are on a roll, thanks to their large men up front and an even larger presence on the left wing in the form of Nemani Nadolo.
Both are factors in the Crusaders' resurgence, according to Israel Dagg, who himself is undergoing something of a renaissance after a difficult start to the season.
With their three victories on the road backed up with a resounding victory over Australian high-flyers the Brumbies, the Crusaders have travelled to Brisbane for tomorrow's match against the Reds high on confidence and expectation.
Lock Sam Whitelock, who has started every match for the Crusaders this season, has led the way with his workrate, and received able back-up in Christchurch last weekend from the returning Richie McCaw. The pack mentality has seen the Crusaders effectively play teams out of matches on the strength of their set piece, but the presence of 1.96m and 125kg giant Nadolo is a creating a different threat out wide.
The Fijian, signed from Japanese club NEC Green Rockets on a hunch by Crusaders assistant coach Tabai Matson, is creating and finishing tries on the flanks not seen at the Crusaders since the days of Afato So'oalo, Marika Vunibaka or Norm Berryman.
"He brings that X factor and obviously he stands out," Dagg said. "He has a lot of physical presence and has brought a whole new dimension to our game."
Nadolo, a 26-year-old brought up in Australia who has played in Europe, Japan, and now New Zealand, has indicated he wants to stick around at the Crusaders, telling Radio Live Sport yesterday he didn't want to be a "one-hit wonder".
That's good news for Todd Blackadder and Co as they look to storm home in the final part of an extremely even competition.
"As a group we're tracking pretty well," Dagg said. "We're clear about what we want to do out there. It's the work that the forwards are doing and Colin [Slade] as well.
"It was building," he said of his side's form. "We were a bit unlucky not to get the win against the Hurricanes and maybe even the Chiefs [in round one] but we're not getting too far ahead of ourselves."
He said it was "awesome to have Richie back. He's a hell of a man and brings a real presence and experience to the team".
Dagg said he was pleased with his form after being dropped earlier in the season. His long-range kicking and darts to the blindside put the boot into the Brumbies in a different way.
