David H. Kelsey is the founding shareholder of Atkinson & Kelsey, P.A., New Mexico's first and most experienced family law firm. He has devoted his practice exclusively to family law since 1973. His peers and competitors have called him the dean of family law attorneys in New Mexico.
Born in Norfolk, Neb., into a family of lawyers -- both his father and grandfather practiced law -- Kelsey worked his way through the University of Notre Dame undergraduate and law schools. He came to New Mexico in 1961 and practiced with Albuquerque trial lawyer Joe Smith. Kelsey then entered the Army's Counterintelligence Corps and was stationed in Baltimore for two years. He returned to Albuquerque in 1963 and practiced personal injury law with Smith until 1967, when he joined Bill Atkinson in a practice that became known as Atkinson & Kelsey.
During the early 1970s, Kelsey became aware of a growing need for experienced family law attorneys. At the time, family law was not a recognized or respected area of law. In 1973, Kelsey made a risky decision: the firm would specialize in and practice only family law. As he explains it, "It's a major area of law, and more people are directly affected by it than by all of the other areas of law put together."
In the ensuing 46 years, Kelsey has not only built the state's largest family law firm, but also has achieved other numerous distinctions:
1. The only attorney listed in every edition of Best Lawyers in America
2. The first family law attorney to serve as president of the State Bar of New Mexico, and one of only a few family law attorneys nationwide who have held the presidency of a state bar association.
3. The first family law attorney to lecture nationally and internationally in family law
4. First attorney to be recognized as a family law specialist by the New Mexico Supreme Court.
5. Listed by the National Law Journal as one of the Top Divorce Lawyers in America.
6. The first New Mexico attorney to be invited into the American College of Family Law Trial Attorneys.
7. The first New Mexico family law attorney to be listed in Best Lawyers in America
8. The only attorney listed in every edition of Best Lawyers in America
9. The first family law attorney to serve as president of the State Bar of New Mexico, and one of only a few family law attorneys nationwide who have held the presidency of a state bar association.
10. The first family law attorney to lecture nationally and internationally in family law
11. The first attorney to be recognized as a family law specialist by the New Mexico Supreme Court.
12. Has presented over 80 lectures on family law issues.
Committed to educating the next generation, Kelsey has trained and mentored many of the state's premier family law attorneys. He has taught advanced family law at the University of New Mexico School of Law, and has lectured and written extensively on family law subjects for over 30 years. Among his many publications, he wrote the New Mexico Divorce Manual and co-authored the New Mexico Domestic Relations Manual.
Kelsey serves on various non-profit boards and is chair of the New Mexico Thomas More Society and its annual Red Mass. He is active in the Jewish-Catholic Dialogue and is a member of the Religious Studies Board of the University of New Mexico and Catholic Charities of Central New Mexico. He is also a Knight of the Equestrian Order of the Holy Sepulchre of Jerusalem.

RIM unveils BlackBerry Torch Research In Motion Ltd. stock sank about 4 per cent in Toronto today after the company's eagerly awaited unveiling of a new touch screen BlackBerry with a slide-out keyboard. The stock sank despite an upbeat assessment from analysts, who noted that the launch closes the gap with RIM's competitors but painted it more of a catch-up move. The BlackBerry Torch also has a new operating system, the BlackBerry 6, and Web browser, all at boosting market share as RIM battles the likes of the iPhone from Apple Inc. and other new smart phones on the market. Here's what some analysts said:
- "They finally caught up. They needed something sexy for the consumer. It didn't blow the doors off. But they're solidly on a level playing field." Maribel Lopez, Lopez Research, to Dow Jones Newswires
- "It really closes the gap with Android and iPhone -- probably more Android, because Apple really offers something unique. But RIM really overhauled the user interface. I think they've regained their No. 2 position in terms of technology." Shaw Wu, Kaufman Brothers, to Reuters
- "This gets them back in the game. It should slow the tide of people jumping ship." Ross Rubin, NPD Group, to Dow Jones Newswires
- "The new OS catches up to the competition in many respects with an improved browser, touch interface, 5 [megapixel]camera, etc. However, the display resolution of 480x360 is not as high as those found on other competitive flagship smart phones (iPhone 960x640; Droid X 854x480) and, in our opinion, RIM still needs to improve its ecosystem." Phillip Huang, Maynard Um, UBS
- "The fact that this device is going to be geared toward both enterprise and consumer, that will be a positive as people will feel that if they design for this device, they can hit two birds with one stone." Nick Agostino, Mackie Research Capital, to Reuters
- "The Torch and OS6 put Research In Motion on firm competitive ground against Apple's iPhone and the Android devices, with a touch screen on par plus the BlackBerry keyboard. The key question is whether RIM can convince developers to prioritize this new platform above the competition." Charles Golvin, Forrester Research
- "Developers want to go where the consumers are and consumers want to go where the developers are. RIM is going to have to tell a very compelling story to attract the first batch of developers." Michael Gartenberg, Altimeter Group, to Reuters
The launch withAT&T Inc. in the United States, comes after a weekend flurry of controversy surrounding security concerns in several countries, notably the threat by the United Arab Emirates to shut down BlackBerry service in October if RIM doesn't take the measures needed to allow authorities to monitor communications.
In Dubai today, the UAE defended its decision, following the U.S. State Department's comments yesterday that it is disappointed by the move. "It is regrettable that after several years of discussions, BlackBerry is still not compliant with UAE regulatory requirements even as it complies with similar policies in other countries," Yousef al-Otaiba, the ambassador to Washington, was quoted as saying in local newspapers, according to Agence France Presse.
He said his country wants "exactly the same regulatory compliance" that RIM gives other governments.
RIM, not mentioning the UAE dispute directly, said in a statement today it has spent more than 10 years building a "very strong security architecture" and it wants to set the record straight:
"There is only one BlackBerry enterprise solution available to our customers around the world and it remains unchanged in all of the markets we operate in. RIM cooperates with all governments with a consistent standard and the same degree of respect. Any claims that we provide, or have ever provided, something unique to the government of one country that we have not offered to the governments of all countries, are unfounded."

What car thieves want most The 2007-2009 luxury Cadillac Escalade SUV, Ford F250 crew pickup, Infiniti G37 luxury car, and Dodge Charger with a HEMI engine rank at the top of the list for cars most stolen in the United States. Rates of theft for those vehicles run three to five times higher than the average for all vehicles, the Highway Loss Data Institute in Arlington, Va., said day. "Sedate family cars and fuel sippers aren't on the hot list," said Kim Hazelbaker, HLDI senior vice president. "Thieves are after chrome, horsepower, and HEMIs."

Mom and Dave told me that Raven went to the Rainbow Bridge but she's been gone a whole week now and that seems like an awfully long trip. Maybe she forgot how to get back?
Mom has been leaving me out in the back yard all day whenever I don't go to day care. It seems kind of funny to be out there all by myself but I guess I'll manage. And it used to be when I came home from doggy day care there was always an extra cookie on the blanket because Raven never could eat those hard cookies. But now there isn't a cookie any more! What's up with that?
So Raven, wherever you are, can I have your cookies and yummies now? Let me know and thanks!
Yesterday mom took me to "doggy day care" - I had no idea! I was a little nervous at first because I thought maybe they were giving me back or something. But after a little while I got to know some of the day campers and we had an AWESOME time! Mom says I can go maybe once a week to play with my new friends, like Amber and Bailey and Otis and that other dog with the crazy blue eyes I can' t remember his name right now and the one dog that barks like a nut and has to go into time out... phew! Anyway, they gave us a snack and we got to take a little nap then back out to the play yard and boy oh boy am I ever tired today! Mom says if she didn't know better, she would swear they gave me some kind of drugs but really I'm just awfully tired. Can't wait to go back but definitely not today I need some sleep zzzzzzzzzzzzzz..............
Hello from my new forever home. It's a pretty good one too! The people who live here apparently are named "mom" and "Dave."
Another dog lives here too, my big sister Raven. Except Raven is pretty old and actually kind of grumpy (don't tell her I said that). I keep trying to make her like me but she gets real crabby if I run too fast in the house or jump over her head or nip at her legs. Mom says I just need to leave Raven alone sometimes and then she tells Raven that she needs to be a little more flexible. Mom says Raven is used to being an "only" dog (whatever that means) but that she really does like other dogs and will come around eventually. Anyway, I'll keep working on her. She will love me I'm sure, just might take a while.
I have to tell you, this place is amazing! Just like Disneyland! First off, there are about a gazillion squirrels in the back yard trees so I have my paws full trying to keep up. Raven is NO help at all. Every time we're outside she just finds the nearest shady spot and takes a nap. Guess it's all going to be my responsibility. I think they adopted me just in the nick of time because believe me, the squirrel situation here is completely out of control. Good thing there is a doggy door so I can get in and out quickly whenever I spy a squirrel getting a little too close for comfort.
So anyway mom and Dave are pretty cool. They don't know too many words yet but they are working on it. They use "Raven words" and forget that I don't speak Raven's language. To be honest, they are not nearly as bright as I was hoping for but you have to love them anyway. Mom is so cuddly and lets me squeeze up next to her for snuggles on the bed when I'm tired. Dave is absolutely, positively the BEST belly-scratcher in the world and he also throws a mean ball. He wears me out! (On the other hand, mom is not too good at it, she throws like a girl.)
They said once it stops raining and being all muddy they are taking me to a place called the "dog park" where I hear there are squirrels that run around on the ground and not up in the trees (I guess they call them prairie dogs but that's sure a silly name). At the dog park you can also throw the ball for miles and miles, plus there is a big pond where I can go swimming with the other lucky dogs. Woohoo!
Until then, I'll be hanging out on the deck, monitoring the back yard squirrel activity, playing catch with Dave, taking mom for walks in the morning and snuggling with her at night when I'm sleepy. I'll try harder to be nice to Raven, although I think she's totally spoiled and they baby her WAY too much.
OH! And I wanted to tell everyone thanks for teaching me how to be a good dog so I could live in a cool house with lots to do and lots of love. You were all so special to me but I'm pretty sure I can take it from here.
P.S. (Mom says if you look up the word "velcro" in the dictionary, you will see a picture of me. You should go check it out!)

What are TEDxCrocettaSalon events?
We are planning a TEDxCrocetta conference in October with the theme "Thinking outside the box" that will be able to host a maximum of 100 people. In order to grow our community and to enhance even more the opportunity to share ideas, TEDxCrocetta has decided to organize 3 Salon events (in May, June, and September) which are more focused on interaction and discussion. At these TEDxCrocettaSalon events, we will watch TEDTalks, have discussions, and host a few live speakers.
What is TEDx?
In the spirit of ideas worth spreading, TEDx is a program of local, self-organized events that bring people together to share a TED-like experience. At a TEDx event, TEDTalks videos and live speakers combine to spark deep discussion and connection in a small group. These local, self-organized events are branded TEDx, where x=independently organized TED event.
What is TED?
TED (Technology, Entertainment, Design) is an annual conference held since 1984. TED's motto - ideas worth spreading - gathers scientists, businessmen, politicians, artists, musicians and engineers on one stage. The speakers share much in common: bright ideas, undisputed influence in their respected fields of activity and the ability to talk about sophisticated things in a simple manner.
When & Where
Toolbox Office Lab & Coworking
Via Agostino da Montefeltro, 2
Saturday, 15 June 2013 from 16:00 to 19:00 (CEST)
Add to my calendar
TEDx is an open-source community of independently organized events that, in the spirit of ideas worth spreading, inspire innovation, leadership, and visionary insights. TEDxCrocetta is our way of creating such a community in Torino.
Why TEDxCrocetta?
We believe that Torino has a lot to offer when it comes to creativity and innovation. Up to today, however, it lacks an interdisciplinary community that can bring people together in an open forum where they can meet and discuss, and where ideas worth spreading can ignite and evolve. TEDxCrocetta, the oldest TEDx group in Torino, is our way of creating such a community and bringing more value to the many wonderful ideas born in this city.

While Johnny Manziel — pictured above with a gaggle of coeds and Rob Gronkowski of the New England Patriots — is battling for the starting quarterback spot on the long suffering Cleveland Browns, it doesn't mean he's forgotten how to enjoy himself, or how to stir up controversy. The 21-year-old spent his Memorial Day weekend soaking in the sights and sounds of Las Vegas — something that is, apparently, unsuited to a newly wealthy (or wealthier, in Johnny Football's case) young adult. Perish the thought.
"If I want to go out and have some fun and it doesn't hinder what my main goals in life are, then I really don't care what anyone has to say," Manziel told reporters after an offseason practice this week. "For some reason, wherever I go people want to take pictures. They think I'm doing something wild when I'm just living a normal life." While Manziel's definition of a normal life might be different from some of the spectators watching his every move, it's hard to begrudge anyone the opportunity to blow off some steam on a national holiday — even when they're involved in a sport as allergic to anything other than one million percent dedication, passion, and other debatable intangibles like football, which is often pronounced 'foutbawl' by its redfaced fun police. There's a reason why Nick Saban exists in unabashed awe and Johnny Manziel doesn't, and it goes further than simply Roll Tide.
That's why Johnny Football (Johnny Foutbawl?) made sure to capture the Browns' offensive handbook on his Instagram, too. He knows what people would say about his micro vacation, and the caption "Guess it's impossible to enjoy the weekend and study?" proves it. For a sport that's so much fun to watch — and it is unarguably fun to watch, most of the time — a large part of its collective intelligentsia seems to exist only to parse and to scold. Those guys (they're almost all men) love to rip on Manziel.

Home > News & Events > News > Alumni Stories > Public Service Innovators - Robbie Frandsen MPA 1999: Post-prison Power
For many discharged from jail, the transition involves some form of post-release supervision. But in Massachusetts, two-thirds of ex-offenders are sent solo into the world after "wrapping" their sentences.
"They get nothing and owe nothing," says Robbie Frandsen MPA 1999, founder of PREP Solutions: the Post-Prison Employment Project, which works with men coming out of prisons and houses of correction in Metro Boston, without regard for their offenses. A few years ago, as a volunteer teacher at the Delancey Street Foundation, an alternative-sentencing program in Los Angeles that works with drug addicts and felons, she saw up close that "change is tough, but it's possible and can be permanent." She also saw it in herself.
"I'm a recovered crack addict. I've been clean and sober for 13 years. Luckily, I never lost my job," she says. Nor was she ever incarcerated. Still, she says of ex-offenders, "I look at them and say, 'you're me.' I'm not arrogant enough to say I know all that they're going through, but I see the link."
This bond is part of the reason that Frandsen recently launched Prep Solutions with help from an Echoing Green fellowship and advice from several faculty members at the Kennedy School.
"Reentry is difficult," she says, especially for violent non-parolees who often have no place to live, no support network, and no job. "Most middle class folks wouldn't make it...When ex-offenders get out, their expectations are incredibly high. They think, 'I'm free.' But it's also very scary. They feel lost out here. They come out thinking they can fix everything at once and that things are going to be different. But during those first few days, they realize things are harder and get discouraged before anything changes."
One of the biggest obstacles is securing employment, which is what Frandsen's project is all about.
"I provide a training course with a dual focus, which includes 'job savvy' stuff - how to hold a job and get a promotion," she says. "We look at how to deal with difficult people, because that's a reality of any job. The other piece of the training is what I call 'deep curriculum,' where we talk about change mechanisms, like how to train your mind to manage choices and behavior. Then I connect them to employers who are willing to hire them for more than just the tax-break incentives."
The goal, she says, is to produce qualified workers who value their jobs and themselves, and whom employers will value in turn. Currently, she is creating a mentor-employer network so that when the economy cools, ex-offenders won't be the first group dismissed in the job pool.
Although Frandsen admits the work is hard, especially doing it alone, surprisingly she says she doesn't get burned out or disappointed.
"I believe in redemption. It's real or it isn't," she says. "This is all worth doing because I know that I'm not putting my money in a bag without a bottom. I know what it's like to have the shadow come over you."
For more information about the project, contact Frandsen at email@example.com. For background on prison reentry in Massachusetts, including a report that Frandsen contributed to, go to www.crjustice.org

Kierra Bradley was all smiles opening her gifts at Monday afternoon's Christmas party at the Richmond Housing Authority community room.
Bradley was thrilled with the dolls she received, and a purple hoodie and shirt. Behind her is her family, from left, sister Kaylee, mother Tracie, brother Noah and brother Dawson. The kids were treated with a visit from Richmond's own Miss Missouri Lacey Fitzgerald and Miss Ray County Addie Duncan, who handed out the gifts. (Photo by JoEllen Black/The Daily News)

Pakistan Presdient Musharraf met a hostile group of international reporters who refused to back away from posing tough questions. The first question asked apparently infuriated the president. He was aksed how he could lead the nation when "many people in the country believe you have blood on your hands over Benazir Bhutto's death." Musharraf's face went cold and he responded: "I consider the question below my dignity to answer. However, I would like to answer it." He went on to point out he was raised by a cultured family tht did not believe in killing people. But, the questions kept on coming:
Would he bow to mounting public opinion and resign?
Was he in fear of his life given the levels of terrorist violence?
What about the charges of vote rigging before the election?
Musharraf defended his actions and made clear he was not afraid of being killed since he knew how to take car of himself. He slipped for a moment when complaining he had warned Bhutto about possible violence and even provided her with an armored car. Reporters pointed out she bought the car. He insisted her death was caused by being blown against the sun roof of the car and agreed there was need for further investigation. That is why he has summoned Scotland Yard. He did blame "inefficiency" at the crime scene of those in charge.
It is interesting that Musharraf's Pakistan Muslim League-Quaid's leader, Chuadhry Shujaat Hussain told reporters that it was important for the INter-Services Intelligence(ISI) to monitor actions of opposition political parties. "It keeps a watch on political parties and reports their anti-government and anti-state activities." Perhaps, someone should inform Musharraf that in a democracy the opposition party is expected to oppose the state.

Do it proper or don't post.
Also wtf @ gameplay.
But don't you love shilling?
As for the game, looks interesting? Certainly different than ms but I'm curious as to how different. Like will i still just spam 1 move over and over?
It's such a huge WTF coming from one gameplay to the other..
Look deeper an think outisde the box. Its te same gameplay. Look closer when you watch it. I am totally stoked for this game an cant wait for it. I hope they have everything MS does but more.
Proudly spending your 2 cents.
Moonies Plox!
*Hunting person who invented Bit Torrent*
Nothing like a awesome Dungeon Crawler
Or a great First Person Shooter
does not look like the spam fess maple is now and that dancing is the best on an MMO to date
No ... JUST NO...
I don't think it was necessary to call it Maplestory 2, it could have been a completely new game; but I guess they are retaking some stuff from the original game (the classes for starters).
Looks alright. Seems like it will have a lot of minigames and that's fun after you are tired of grinding. I wonder though, since the entire world is made of blocks, will you be able to change the landscape somehow? Or build stuff?
Not a fan of MS1, so I will see how this one goes.

It's WNxPyrZern. Pleased to meet you. My 3D Character Artist Folio
It looks really fun, I'm looking forward to it.
Be careful of what you say, tomorrow or today, for the words you now speak, may become the poison your enemies later seek; truth.
"Rules do not exist to bind you, they exist so you may know your freedoms"
I like it. Its like a re-visioned version of MS 1 with a different perspective. Those boss battles look like a lot of fun as well. It would take getting used to but this is something I'm more than willing to try.

Who hates Mondays? We all do. Actually Sundays in this part of the world. But in any case, here is some absurd news that made headlines to cheer you up.
The Gods Have Accepted Your Sacrifice
So you own an airline company and one of your planes has always been jinxed, troubled beyond trouble and might get into the Wikipedia as one of those (if not the most) malfunctional pieces of equipment ever created by man. Yet you'd lose business if it doesn't fly, and if it does fly you'd lose people. And you don't have the money to fix it. What a pickle! So what do you do? Simple: Sacrifice two goats to please the sky gods and everything will be fine. Although you might be laughing now, it actually worked. Talk about supernatural powers of goats!
So We Fixed the Plane, Why the DELAY?
Assuming you have a proper plane, you get another problem on your hands: The passengers. No no, not those who arrive last minute, but the ones who want to shuffle seats. I mean, everyone does that, right? Well it appears that the person in question had too many relative females who are seated next to unknown men. Gee, and I thought on a plane everyone knew the other! Three hours later the guy and his infinite number of female relatives got off the plane and all the other passengers missed their connecting flights.
Hello? Paris?
To many people this is a curse, but to one particular person it was amusing. They inherited Paris Hilton's number. Swell.
What People Do To Avoid Paying Tax
So tax is a big thing apparantly. Here in the Middle East we don't worry about such things of course, since everything is overpriced by default anyway. However this Japanese woman thought of a brilliant idea: Use your relative's names so that the government thinks your income is negligible and avoid tax. Thankfully her fine was only a margin of what she made out of her 60-year plot, which is amusing in and of itself.
What People Do To Avoid Paying Retail
It is a simple thing, really, when you don't want to pay for an item. You just shoplift it, right? Experienced shoplifters (read: Brits) can live for years without any sort of income but live a high-end life with LCD HDTVs, a full supply of groceries and probably even borrowed children. What these shoplifter should teach the new generation is that, when you steal, please don't go back to the store and ask for an exchange.
I Am Bored. Let's Save A Shark!
You're a bored lifeguard. You hear a commotion. Certainly, there must be a problem. Someone drowning. You run to the location and you see people frantically trying to escape a shark. What do you do? Save the shark!

"I already sent it," explained White. Just like that, Louisiana Tech Head Coach Derek Dooley has some help up front for his team.
John White, a defensive tackle from Northeast Oklahoma A&M, will help out inside with D'Anthony Smith and Mason Hitt next year. Jacob Miller, from Hutchinson College, can play both offensive guard and tackle.
Jacob Miller
Numbers were a problem on both sides of the line for Coach Dooley in 2008. Both White and Miller will enroll for the spring quarter and participate in spring practice.
While both players add depth to the 2009 squad, they will bring much more than just depth. White put up big numbers and gives Defensive Coordinator Tommy Spangler the kind of pass rush he covets. Miller will contend for a starting spot at either right guard or right tackle.

Billionaire fund manager Mark Coombs, founder and chief executive of Ashmore, reckons that the recent turmoil in emerging markets presents strong buying opportunities for investors.
His remarks came as Ashmore reported a 33% fall in first-half profits to £79.5 million after a number of clients who had dipped into emerging markets in early 2013 pulled out as soon as the turmoil started. As previously announced, assets under management fell 2.7% to £75.3 billion in the six months to December. Profits were also hit by the strength of sterling against the dollar which caused a £30 million markdown to markets.
Finance director Tom Shippey's picks are China, where Ashmore has become the first non-Chinese firm to be given access to a wide range of domestic securities, Korea, which he says is being export driven, and the whole of Africa.
Ashmore is raising its first-half dividend from 4.35p a share to 4.45p, which means Coombs, who owns 42% of the business, picks up a cheque for £13 million.
The shares dropped 23p to 317p.Reuse content

New Member / New Owner with DCT questions
Hi everyone,
I've been lurking here while making up my mind about a new car. My choices were between a Cruze, Mazda 3, and the Focus. The test drive convinced me, and I pick up my 2013 Ti hatch (performance blue) in 3 days.
I'm going into this with eyes wide open in regard to the DCT issues, and I have a few questions which I wonder if you all would be so kind to answer for me. This is a very impressive forum and I look forward to using this site as a great information source. Here are my questions:
1. Is there any objective data as to the actual percentage of cars which have had issues?
2. It seems that there are fewer 2013 owners posting with problems. Can I assume from this that the software updates have at least greatly reduced the issues?
3. Are there any hesitation issues when using Sport/manual mode? Truthfully, I plan on using that mode most often on my daily commute which takes me thru some beautiful countryside with great newly paved two-lane roads - my favorite kind of driving. I had to give up my beloved 5 speed because my wife has left hip issues which makes it difficult for her to use a clutch. I know the experience won't be the same, but it's as close as I can get.
Thanks in advance for your help. I look forward to spending a lot of time here in the future.
Have you considered manual? It is not hard to learn and it should take you about 2 to 3 days of driving to get the hang of it. Manual has no issues and provides in my opinion a better drive.
This is as well as the fact that the gearing advantage of the 6DCT can't be ignored. If there was a six speed manual gearbox with the same or similar ratios available on the non ST then this would be ok, but the 5 speed is fundamentally the same and has roughly the same gear ratios as the ones used in 1994 by my old car (it wasn't the same transaxle, but the gear ratios /top gear specifically were basically identical at 0.82:1).
The DCT spins about 374 rpm slower at 70 mph than the manual simply based on the gearing when both cars are equipped with the 16" wheels. That alone can attribute to the efficiency gains of the additonal gear, as well as the fact that unlike a torque converter automatic or wet clutch DCT it does not have the parasitic drag of pumping all that additional fluid.
Suss, as always your replies are thought out, detailed and well articulated
Had there been a 6MT available with this 2.0 L GDI engine with the same or similar gear ratios to the 6DCT I might have considered it, but the 2012+ Focus is approximately 589 lbs heavier than my old car's manufacturers suggested curb weight (that was 18 years ago before rust took a hold and knocked it down a bit more) so the fact that it can manage to be as efficient if not more so despite the extra power and weight just go to show how well the powertrain can and does work together.
The 5MT just doesn't have the legs to bring down the engine speed at freeway speeds.
I do still find myself shifting the DCT manually on occasion, especially when I want to lock it into 6th gear on the freeway unless I really need to accelerate as this would also prevent the car from jumping back and forth between gears on any slight incline or decline in terrain.
I drove my previous car for over 44,000 miles in about 3 years, but this was also while I was still in university and rotating every 12 weeks into the work environment driving 100+ miles a day five days a week including heavy stop and go traffic. The part that bothered me the most after awhile was the drone of the exhaust at 3000 rpm that and the headaches from this.
When I manually shift from 2nd to 3rd there is about a 1 sec delay before 3rd engages and my rpms shoot up 600 - 1000. All other gear changes (upshift and downshift) are quick. I have gone to the dealer and was told this is normal behaviour =\
Not sure if anyone has experienced this in the 2013s but there are a few of us on here with the 2012s that have this issue.

Hi, I'm Heather from Colorado. I've liked Jeeps since I was a kid, and have always been fond/nostalgic of the inline six sound/feel. In 1993, right before I got knocked up with my first kid, I swore my "next car" would be a convertible. That was three cars and two kids ago...We got hooked on the (mild, easy) off-roading last Fall when my husband came home from Iraq and we bought a new F-150. It made for interesting off-roading, as it's a super-crew... We thought we'd get a cheap Cherokee, instead of me sucking all of the wind out of the Ford cab any time anything got a little dicey (to me) on the trail and I had visions of calling to use the Gap Insurance... I also put my 2004 SVT Focus up for sale, so I could finally get my "convertible" - a CJ-7, as that's what I remember as a "real Jeep" from childhood. I couldn't part (yet) with my SVT (and couldn't find THE CJ-7 on Craig's List), and I wound up with a 2003 4.0L Sport (81K miles) - and now my husband has completely forgotten about the $2K beater Cherokee and he wants to put a lift and tires and blah blah blah blah on mine for this summer. Pretty sure we won't be affording that right at the moment, but he can dream.
I am trying to decipher all the top options. Mine came with full hard doors, and a soft top. I'd like to get the half doors, so I can remove all the extra door surround stuff, but I'd like some kind of a top that I can have just in case it starts to rain while I'm at work, or on the way home - does such a thing exist? I've been looking everywhere, but I think I'm too new to really understand what to look for.
Looking forward to lots of reading, and learning from you all on this site! Thanks to whomever(s) owns and maintains it!
Welcome to the Forum
TOPS: There are a lot of options for your TJ out there. There is an emergency top that sounds like what you are looking for. Check with Quadratec or 4wheelparts for that.
You don't really need your door surrounds unless you have your windows in.
DOORS: Bestop makes an element door that is very versatile. It comes as a set of rail doors with available enclosures, bags and soft uppers. You basically build your own half doors any way you want.

in your opinion...
which brands make the lightest boards? and what models of these brands? besides the vapor.
iv never heard of arbor...hmmmmm....do you think rome boards are really light? like their agent board?
palmer's honey comb malarky i understand is quite flighty....
but vapor is where its at (even tho it isn't spelt correctly!)
Elan Inverse..
1 Attachment(s)
Elan Inverse is the lightest out there. Nidecker has the mega light and ultra light I believe. The Ultra being a very light board too.
There's also the LibTech Cygnus X1 and the Ride TMS UL that are super light weight boards. I feel like there's one we're missing though that is in that same class...
In terms of the Rome Agent, it's light but it's not at the same level as the others that are designed specifically to be super light. What are you trying to do with this ultra light board? Most of them are designed to just basically go really, really fast and that's it...
hmmmm..so super light boards like the arbor and the libtech wont be very good at the park, like rails and and all that? thats where im kinda confused. i guess what im getting at, is im looking for a really light board thats really good for the park as well. and maybe the agent is the board for me then. unless the arbor is good for that or better. i mean, i know im being anal, but if im gonna spend 500 bucks i wanna make sure im getting the best for my money lol. u guys are being so helpful tho
You don't need to spend anywhere near $500 for a great board. What in the park are you looking at doing more? Jibbing, kickers, pipe, or a little bit of everything? And how long have you been boarding?
1 Attachment(s)
I don't think I am wrong here, light boards are not really designed to go fast. They'll chatter out when you really get up to speed. A more burly board is what you are going to want.
Most of the light boards seem to have the function of being a backcountry freeride board or park applications. At least that is how I have read into it. I just can't see one of the light boards being something I want to take down a steep groomer at speed. I am planning on going to the dealer demo days at Loveland this year, I'll make it a point to take a Vapor out if it's available.

Nope, you can't trust ANYONE. People are NO DAMN GOOD! Do you have children? Have you considered loading a BB Gun with hard candy, hiding in different places, and shooting him in the ass everytime he walks out his door? Perhaps have the rest of the street do so as well? Maybe you can get him to move away.
"The statement below is true.
The statement above is false."
Or just get a gun and shoot him.
theres a converted chapel across the road from my house that we found out was being used by the probation services to house scum when released from prision and couldnt go back to their own area due to the convictions they had. three pedos (that we knew of) and numerous smackheads they placed there. needless to say none stayed to long as we "persuaded" them to leave. but the cheek of it. move them so someone elses kids are safe but fuck my kids.
I know how you feel mate; this guy here was a friend of mine and was part of the group I go out with, socially; just 2 days before this story broke, he was out with me and my mates and we were chatting about my recovery from my broken ankle.
I'd never have guessed.
its not as uncommon as you think this sort of thing...
We had a neighbour - 2 doors away on a new estate. Noticed police slowly patrolling outside on a regular basis, then a van parked down the road with hidden cams monitoring his house for a while.
Then one day about 8 police entered the house and left hours later with a van full of his stuff, pcs, boxes etc all bagged up.
a few months later found out he and his wife were part of a pedo ring and had been under 'watch' for near a year and a half!
They only got busted as 'another' new case came to light. Police had known about them for ages though.
i have kids, as do most of the neighbors and the family in question were moved in (housing association type house) while still under investigation.
I know someone involved with the case and was only told about it as we were so close. Otherwise, we wouldnt have been told about them until they went to prison.
Wouldn't be surprised if we end up with 'vigilante' groups on the rise in this country. Police are next to useless in most cases.
Problem with these Vigilante groups, don't they get it wrong half the time and end up battering innocent people? Also wasn't there a pediatrician was attacked because the mob did not know what a pediatrician was, lol! Then again that's Sun readers for you.
Self-styled vigilantes attacked the home of a hospital paediatrician after apparently confusing her professional title with the word "paedophile", it emerged yesterday.
Dr Yvette Cloete, a specialist registrar in paediatric medicine at the Royal Gwent hospital in Newport, was forced to flee her house after vandals daubed it with graffiti in the middle of the night.
The word "paedo" was written across the front porch and door of the house she shared with her brother in the village of St Brides, south Wales.
Paediatrician and Paedophile apparently are the same thing (Fucking moron vigilantly group FAIL)
Yes this is common - police do a good job and actually take this extremely seriously - but they work by the law and need evidence - that process is to defend us all. (But if the OP shoot the dude I wont cry)
In the area I grew up in people who have been proven to be abusing kids, attacking women, robbing houses etc are known to "disappear"
small town mentality though, people round that way look after each other

Everyone likes to be associated with a winner. Conversely...well, you know how the rest of it goes.
Which could be the reason why we won't be seeing a Pandora Radio application on any Windows Phone 7 smartphones in the near future, or perhaps ever.
From the Boy Genius Report's Zach Epstein:
Back in March of this year, Microsoft proudly announced that Pandora would be one of its big-name Windows Phone 7 launch partners. In an interesting turn of events last week, however, the popular Internet radio provider said on its Twitter account that it has no plans to develop an app for Microsoft's new platform.
Following a report Monday about the decision on wpcentral, Pandora issued a tweet to make things, um, clearer:
He's really a really a nice guy, but I just want to be friends. Wpcentral tries to put a game spin on the rejection -- "it looks like Pandora is going to sit on the sidelines for Windows Phone 7--that is until demand makes it hard to ignore" -- but that's like saying, "You just wait until he's rich and famous -- then you'll come crawling back!"
Perhaps. For now, though, it's clear that Pandora just isn't that into WP7. We can speculate as to why, but it's not unreasonable to conclude that Pandora, like others, doesn't exactly sense WP7 taking the smartphone market by storm. Network World's Jon Brodkin has a good column about this in which he makes an undeniable point -- if WP7 sales were going through the roof, Microsoft would be telling the world. But it's not, and neither are the carriers selling the phone. This may be a case where silence speaks volumes.
Finally, there's Pandora's statement to BGR regarding WP7:
While we're excited to see companies innovating and while we're not ready to make an announcement specifically related to the Win 7 phone, we generally want to be everywhere our listeners want us to be.

sure the econotig is not the best machine, but the price is good and makes acceptable jobs in most light situations, though I have even welded up a cracked head.
I don't like the torch withouth cooling, it gets too hot to handle even after a few minutes, that's what I would change the most.
.125 aluminum should get welded pretty well with the econotig.
For aluminum you need to prepare the electrode to a ball point, not a pencil tip, in order to do this you'll need a piece of copper, any copper scrap will do, I have this 2x2 inch piece of 1/8 thick copper stock, that I use for this task.
first off you grind the electrode to a tip, not very pointy, say 45 degrees is ok, then you strike an arc over the copper piece and keep the torch very straight up, don't move it, just keep the arc lit, a short arc is better, a nice ball point will melt and form in the tip of the electrode, now you are ready to start welding aluminum with it, remember you must do this in AC mode, the ball point will not form in DC mode.
Pencil tips are for welding steel and stainless steel only. and you grind them holding them up to the face of the grinding wheel, not the sides, if you don't grind them correctly the arc will jump to the sides and will not let you weld rigth.

This book traces the relation between "high" modernism and the "decadence" of the writers and painters of the later Victorian Age, mapping out the main lines of continuity and change over the long turn of the century. He tracks these writers' varied but shared feelings about living in what they perceive to be a late day of history: their presentiments about the waning energies of nation and empire and their concerns about new scientific ideas of entropy, especially as these notions relate to the decay of language. He is also currently writing the Blackwell biography of Ezra Pound.
In these works, and throughout his career, Professor Sherry has focused on bringing an historically informed understanding to the modernist project. In The Great War and the Language of Modernism (Oxford, 2003; rpt 2004, 2006), he recovers the substance of the debates within the British Liberal party on the ethics and rationale of the war, locating a crisis that drives deep down into the intellectual traditions of liberal modernity and establishing in this dissonance the provocative circumstance for some of the most important literary inventions in British modernism. He broadens this perspective into an overview of the pan-European and trans-Atlantic writing of the war in a recently edited volume, the Cambridge Companion to the Literature of the First World War (2005). Earlier research has addressed the fraught issue of modernist politics: in Ezra Pound, Wyndham Lewis, and Radical Modernism (Oxford, 1993), he develops a framework of analysis that reveals the literary and artistic bases of these modernists' attraction to—and tragic misunderstanding of—European fascisms.
Other work includes James Joyce: Ulysses (Cambridge, 1995, rpt. 1997, 2000; 2d ed. 2004), which presents a reading of Joyce's monumental novel in the contexts of Irish modernism, Irish history, and the history of the novel, and The Uncommon Tongue: The Poetry and Criticism of Geoffrey Hill (Michigan, 1987), which examines this contemporary British poet's relation to poetic modernism as his most important precedent and legacy.

That usually is the fan cooling resistor. Your fans have 2 speeds. If the low speed is not working, the engine will overheat at idle. It will not overheat with the AC on because the fans run at high speed with the AC on.
You can check the temperature at which the fans come on by using the electronic odometer trick to monitor temps. Key off, press and hold the odometer reset button. Turn key on, hold odo reset button until the odometer reads [test]. Now you're in test mode, and you will remain in test mode until you turn the key off, and each time you press and release the odo reset button it will scroll through one of 30 test functions. The one you're looking for looks like this [30 C] or whatever your ambient temp is on a cold engine in C. Now this might sound goofy, but the fans come on at very high temperatures. Low speed is around 115C, and high speed is 118C. This engine is designed to run as close to overheating as possible.
Usually the low speed causes the sort of overheating you're experiencing, but since the high speed comes on- people think the fans are working correctly.
As far as the heater core goes, you can check it by removing it's hoses from the engine, and then flushing it out. I doubt that the heater core is the problem in this case, and wouldn't change one until it leaks inside the car.
Be eclectic.

Nightingale Campaign Launches Money Bomb
Purveyor of State rights and Constitution defender Gubernatorial Candidate Chelene Nightingale launches Money Bomb in a coalition with Money Bomb founder, James Sugra Friday, July 23, 2010.
Los Angeles, CA – July 16, 2010 – Purveyor of State rights and Constitution defender Gubernatorial Candidate Chelene Nightingale launches Money Bomb in a coalition with Money Bomb founder, James Sugra Friday, July 23, 2010.
A lifelong republican, staunch constitutionalist and community organizer, Chelene Nightingale was recruited by American Independent Party leaders to run for Governor of California. After years of advocating for Constitutional candidates, she had been called to action and was dispatched as the icon for the California Revolution.
"I am one of you. I am not a politician. I am We The People," Nightingale declared at her announcement for candidacy. "I am just the spokesperson. This is our campaign. If you don't think we can win, guess again."
Over the next year, Chelene rallied a statewide movement underpinned by hundreds of thousands of grassroots Patriots for the first explosive rebellion against state spending, the cost of illegal immigration, and Federal Government-induced drought in California's Central Valley.
In June of 2010, the Nightingale campaign enlisted as its operations director James Sugra, creator of the record-breaking November 5th mass donation - brainchild of the Ron Paul Money Bomb of 2007. Sugra'
Sugra's inspiration united 40,000 Americans to amass 4.3 million dollars in a single day, an achievement that produced the most funds raised online in a 24 hour period for any political candidate in US History and more money than any Republican candidate had ever raised in one day via traditional means and online donations combined.
On the heels of its promising staff addition, Nightingale for Governor is launching its first Money Bomb aimed at July 23, 2010. A promotional video for the event features a motivating rock euphony entitled, "Stand Up" by Jeremy Dodge and includes clips from Chelene's recent border tour and Tea Party speeches.
The July 23rd Money Bomb marks the one year anniversary of the slaying of California Border Patrol Agent, Robert Rosas, who was murdered while protecting the California border.
Chelene Nightingale recently visited the California border for the Agent Rosas Tree Planting Tribute Ceremony. "Although our current administration assures us our borders are secure, if this was true, Agent Rosas would still be alive today and over 80 miles of Arizona would not be drug cartel territory today. We The People must demand our government protect us from a dangerous illegal insurgency,"
Gary Odom is the national field director of the Constitution Party. "We truly believe that Chelene Nightingale can win and urge every voter in California to join this great 'We the People' Revolution at the ballot box in 2010," said Odom, who was the chairman of the California American Independent Party in 1988.
Chelene Nightingale will be printed on the November ballot as a candidate for California governor. Registered voters from all parties are able to cast their vote for Chelene on Election Day.
The July 23rd Money Bomb is the first official statewide volunteer effort. Supporters are encouraged to find their regional Meetup group at www.meetup.com and attend their local Money Bomb party. A conference call will be scheduled allowing all supporters to hear the Nightingale Campaign's vision on a path to declare victory in November.

Praying for you, your family, and your mom. I lost my mom 12 years ago to Ovarian Cancer. It is true what you say about dying a thousand deaths first. It seems I rehearsed what it was going to be like over and over the 18 months we had between diagnosis and the last day I spent by her side. She taught me a lot in those 18 months. I learned about dignity and bravery, vulnerability and strength, humor and sorrow. I learned what mattered in those 18 months. As with a lot of life's lessons, they are learned in the valleys of life. That may sound cliche but it has certainly been true for me. I'll be praying.

Prayers for y'all. Here, too. Got word today that my 105-yr Mom is hospitalized w/ pneumonia. A strong antibiotic drip in a pic-line will take care of it for now, I suppose. But it's also the Spirit's way of reminding us that medications and wonder drugs go only so far. And our days are numbered, and we are not our own. Today I prayed for comfort in Mom's sunset season. For peace and for a blessed restoration of her to himself. Whenever that is. And prayers for a friend only a year older than my daughter. He's lost in the early summer of his life, lost in the burderns brought home from war. So much to pray for and give thanks for. Life.

Shimla, Dec 31 (UNI) Himachal Pradesh BJP chief and Rajya Sabha MP Suresh Bhardwaj today said the BJP, if voted to power, would make amendments in the government employees service manual so that they could take part in RSS functions.
He termed the RSS as a social and cultural organisation adding that the state government was harassing government employees under this clause. He further cited the example of Madhya Pradesh government, where no such ban exists.
Addressing mediapersons here, he termed the year 2006 as a black chapter for the Congress government and alleged that corruption and scams were the order of the day. Developmental works had come to a standstill, he added.
Mr Bhardwaj said his party had submitted a chargesheet to the Governor alleging the state government of scams in the Irrigation and Public Health department and also suspension of ADGP B S Thind.
He also demanded a CBI inquiry in these issues.
The state BJP chief said the Congress government always tried to shield ADGP Thind and State Chief Minister Virbhadra Singh was protecting the Vice-Chancellor in the CPMT leak issue by granting him extension. Land mafia had taken roots in Barotiwala and Kala Amb with the connivance of Congress politicians, he added.
Mr Bhardwaj termed the performance of Virbhadra Singh's regime as lackluster in developmental works and said the state government could not manage any economic package from the Centre and had failed to curb the price rise. The Public Distribution System in the state had collapsed and ration under the 'Antyodya scheme' had been curtailed, he added.
He castigated the government for forcibly taking agricultural land from the farmers for hydro-power and industrial projects and said it would have to face the consequences. ''I have taken up the matter of setting up a Central University in Dharamsala with the Central government and the Virbhadra Singh government should also pursue this matter earnestly,'' he added.

[Photo: Students in the South Hebron Hills demonstrate for their right to education, free of settler attacks, in 2013/Photo: Operation Dove]
By Chris Carlson
International Middle East Media Center: On Thursday at around 12 pm, two Israeli settlers coming with a quad-bike from the illegal outpost of Havat Ma'on attacked, with stones, four Palestinian children and the mother of three of them, as they were returning from school to their homes in the villages of Tuba and Maghayir Al Abeed.
A seven-year-old girl was hit by a stone and fell while attempting to run away, badly injuring her head. Her father, who witnessed the attack as he was harvesting his land situated on top of the Old Havat Ma'on hill, immediately brought her to the nearby village of At Tuwani, where an ambulance came to rescue her and bring her to the hospital.
The girl required five stitches and is now resting at home with her family.
The five Palestinians were coming from the village of At Tuwani, where the children attend school, through the only path they can use without the military escort which, every day, accompanies the children from Tuba and Maghayir Al Abeed on their way to and from school, since 2004.
On this path, Palestinians cross the hill where the outpost of Havat Ma'on was situated before it was dismantled in 2000 and moved to Hill 833. Through this hill passes a paved road used by Israeli settlers as a hiking trail.
The five Palestinians were attacked by two Israeli settlers who were riding with their quad-bike on this trail.

What Sucks… Snakes!
Snakes will eat your dog. In front of you. In front of your kids.
Here's what we know about snakes.
They slither around on their bellies.
They can swim and climb trees.
They can disengage their jaws to eat things bigger than their mouths.
They have long tongues they use to smell.
Horses are scared shitless of them.
Many of them are poisonous and their bites, fatal to humans.
And now, they stalk and kill dogs.
Nice job making these things, God seriously way to fucking go. The world has enough flowers that cure diseases? Couldn't make a rainbow that came after a snowstorm? No, let's make a huge muscular thing with no arms or legs than can rattle, skim across a pond and eats its food whole. Way to friggin go.
3 comments:
The kind of people that would have a pet snake (and feed it live food) are the same kind of sadists that would enjoy watching dog fighting.
Think US football player Michael Vick.
Why anyone would own a snake is beyond my comprehension. They don't do anything except lay under a heat lamp inside a plexiglass box... unless they escape and kill something.
Etc. A shitty pet all around.
You can think what you want. I have owned a Red Tail Boa for four years. She is a great pet and far easier to take care of than a dog or a cat even. I work 60 hour weeks. I have no interest at all in dog fighting, nor do I feed my snake live animals. There is no need for it in captivity, and I have no desire to watch an animal suffer needlessly. I handle Sage a couple times a week to keep her tame. I built a sturdy, very nice enclosure for her. It's fun to watch her climb around at night, she can be very active, and there are times I don't see her for a week. So what?
Well, you're saying all of us that keep snakes are sadists, and that we suck? Don't think so. I'm thirteen and i have had some problems and can be slight stressful. My small baby ball python really helps me relax. Snakes bite when they are hungry or intimidated. Hungry in 90 per cent of the time. My snake is calm and curious. Dogs are expensive, difficult, smell, loud and just gives you SO much restriction. All snakes isn't 20 foot killer pythons. You can just blame the family for letting the snake run free and not keeping it entertained.

INSIGHT-As Boeing, Airbus factories hum, suppliers get rattled
By Alwyn Scott
NEW YORK, March 3,(Reuters) - The world's largest plane makers are soaring these days, fueled by historic demand for new jets that has cranked up their factories to record speeds.
But booming sales of aircraft, far from being a bonanza for suppliers, are spurring brutal competition between Airbus Group NV and Boeing Co, which are demanding better deals from the companies that make billions of parts the factories need.
GM Nameplate is one such company. The 400-employee Seattle firm makes the signs and placards posted on everything from overhead bins to emergency exits: about 1,500 signs per plane, or 1.6 million a year to Boeing alone.
As Boeing sped up jet output by 40 percent over the last three years, it not only asked GM Nameplate to turn out more signs. It also wanted a 15 to 20 percent price cut, said Paul Michaels, director of GMN Aerospace, the aircraft division.
"That's huge," Michaels said.
Boeing also wanted GMN to show it was able to meet faster production speeds, and that it had the financial health to stay in business. The company spent a week with two Boeing coaches going over its factory. Michaels says he now expects to hit the price target in 2016 and ultimately to be better off. But "it was very nerve-racking at first."
The price pressure has left many small-tier suppliers grappling with whether to invest and grow, sell to big players or simply fold.
"It's forcing suppliers to say either I'm in the game or out of the game," said Christian Schiller, managing director at Cascadia Capital, a Seattle investment bank. "They can't just stay still." Continued...
