March 4, 2013
Senior guard Josh Bartelstein begins his senior season and his third year writing the J-Bart Blog. He will give all Wolverine fans an inside look into the program and life outside of basketball during the 2012-13 season.
What's up everyone?
I know, I know. It has been awhile. However, as you have seen, heard and read, we had this big stretch of the season when we were just so busy. Throw in school on top of that and, well, I just have not had the time to write.
But now I do!
What a day and what a game! Crisler Center was rocking and everyone that was there witnessed an epic battle between two great programs and teams. Even with our student section on spring break, our fans were energized and made a huge difference in the game. I can only imagine what next Sunday against Indiana will be like!
I'm not sure where to exactly start breaking down that game, but Trey (Burke) probably isn't a bad choice. I can break down all his stats, the five steals, but more than anything, it is about his will to win. Trey was not going to let us lose that game. He gets knocked down almost every possession going to the basket, but he gets right back up and sprints back on defense.
I really hope people don't take for granted just how great of shape he is in and how hard he competes because they marvel at the spectacular plays he makes. Do you know how exhausting it is to run off ball screen after ball screen and then play defense like he does? It is something else. There aren't many words to describe Trey, so I'll just say that I LOVE being his teammate!
The next guy I want to talk about is Glenn (Robinson III). Glenn has all the gifts in the world to be a special basketball player. He took a big step Sunday with his toughness. People throw that word around a lot, probably too much, but when you take a charge on Derrick Nix, that shows some toughness. We talked all week about taking charges and not backing out of the way. Sunday was a perfect example of that, because the game swung early in the second half due to those charges.
The other freshman who was terrific was Caris LeVert. Caris brings a defensive tenacity that changes the flow of the game. He gets into people and the Spartans went back on their heels a little bit. We need that nastiness and that edge every game from everyone on defense. It makes good teams great and great teams elite.
Sunday was a great win, but we play again Wednesday on the road against another hot team. Purdue just pulled off a great win at Wisconsin. Yes, at Wisconsin. We need to get back to playing Michigan basketball on the road. Purdue runs a ton of ball screens with guys who can really shoot, and our ball screen defense will be put to the test once again. It is our last road game of the season and we need to get a win in a hostile environment.
Finally, to all the fans that read the blog, I appreciate the emails. Good or sometimes bad, the passion you guys have for Michigan basketball is what makes playing for this school and program so special. The one thing you have to understand is winning games in college basketball, especially in the Big Ten, is incredibly difficult. Just look at all the upsets that take place every week. There is so much parity and the margin for error continues to get smaller.
At this time of the year, the key is having perspective and seeing the bigger picture. If you do that, you realize how exceptional this season has been and it's only going to get better.
Keep writing into the blog at email@example.com.
Hopefully I see many of you at senior night next weekend.
Have a great week and Go Blue!

How do I make one of those tuners free to allow me to view live TV? UPDATE: I restarted the TiVo Mini, then the TiVo Premiere, and live TV on the Mini seems to be working now. Does anyone know if there's a way to solve this bug short of two restarts?

I am talking about my father. He is a brain hemorrhage patient. In how much time a patient suffering with brain hemorrhage will recover. And now he has a problem in his knees. Is this problem is cause of his disease.
My father is 55 years old and has recently undergone a surgery to remove tumour in the testicular area along with left testicle and lymph nodes. Post biopsy results in the tumour and lymph nodes have detected cancer. All tumour marker tests i.e. LDH, AFP and HCG have shown normal values. Also FNAC test showed normal value prior to the surgery. What should be our next steps in this case? What are the implications and what is the cure/survival rate for testicular cancer?
The term haemorrhage refers to the escape of blood from the vessels through which it runs and the discharge can be either into the internal cavities or in the external regions. Profuse as well as long drawn haemmorrhages can be dangerous and lead to serious outcomes. In some individuals there exists a predisposition which can either be acquired or hereditary and comprises defective contractility of affected arteries. The common haemorrhages can be of three types namely arterial, venous and capillary, and the special types are accidental, antepartum, cerebral, concealed, contrecoup, extradural and intradural haemorrhage. Regardless of the haemorrhage you are suffering from, homeopathy can offer you a solution to your ailment.
What are the symptoms of internal haemorrhage?
Internal bleeding is quite difficult to detect and in some cases it may not be identified for many hours after it starts. Symptoms may only take place when there is severe loss of blood and when the blood clot is big enough for compressing any organ, leading to its inability to function properly. Some people are affected with inborn and genetic errors of blood clotting and in such cases minor injuries can cause a heavy bleeding. Von
Willebrand's disease and haemophilia are two instances of hereditary clotting disease.
There are several homeopathic medications, including secale, trilium, ipecac, hammelis and cinchona, along with various others that can be used for the treatment of haemorrage. However, it is best to consult an expert for availing medicines that are ideal to treat your individualistic health complication.
How can homeopathy treat haemorrahage?
Homeopathy aims to treat an individual as a whole instead of focusing on the affected area or the concerned ailment only. So when you are suffering from haemorrahage, your doctor will evaluate all the relevant aspects of your health that include assessment of the physical and mental conditions, present symptoms, underlying pathological conditions as well as possible causative factors. Some people have a tendency to choose medications on their own and administer them, but it is advisable to not take things into your own hands as a haemorrhage is a broad aspect and shouldn't be experimented with.
It is important to check whether you are susceptible to any kind of haemorrhage and get proper homeopathic medication. It is important to maintain a low blood pressure and stay away from all kinds of activities that can induce heavy gravitational force and stay as stress free as possible. If you wish to discuss any specific problem, you can consult a homeopath.

Symptoms, causes and home remedies for Migraine
If you check the recent scientific studies, then you will come to know that PPI drugs are treated as the popular medicines to treat heartburn troubles, but as the side-effect, you will face acute cognitive troubles. Your mental condition might get affected in various ways causing memory or concentration loss, decrease in brain ability and others. Though, these drugs are very safe but only effectively treating heartburn troubles, especially gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD).
How Dementia is related with PPI drugs?
PPI drugs are normally recommended by doctors for treating heartburn issues, but if you are taking these drugs on a continuous basis, then you might face the unwanted signs or symptoms of dementia. This is a hardcore fact, and it has been observed by many reputed researchers of the present age. There are some commonest symptoms that can be observed due to dementia, and some of the prominent ones are as follows:-
- Beta-amyloid production: Beta-amyloid is a kind of protein and the growth of this specific protein increases to a great extent with the consistent intake of PPI drugs. This protein might lead to the increase in varied dementia signs, out of which the most severe kind of situation is Alzheimer's disease. This disease might get converted into dreadful condition at times, and this is the reason a regular or consistent intake of PPI drugs should be essentially avoided. If you are facing this condition, then you should report about the same to your doctor immediately. This protein is very toxic or harmful for the brain as your mental ability is being adversely affected.
- Decrease of vitamin B12: If vitamin B12 decreases day by day, then acute mental disturbances will get invited. If you want to avoid this kind of condition, then nothing can be a better option other than avoiding PPI drugs. This is the only reason that doctors never recommend taking these drugs in an excessive limit. In fact, sometimes, these drugs are prescribed along with other potential medicines that can help in maintaining mental health in good condition. If you have got any family history of mental trouble, then you should reveal the same to your doctor so that strong PPI medicines are not prescribed for gastric troubles. In fact, there are few limitations among PPI drugs that are never to be prescribed by doctors and all the doctors should follow the same in a sincere manner. If you wish to discuss about any specific problem, you can consult a General Physician.

A Brain Tumour can be defined as an abnormal growth of the tissues in the brain, which can disrupt the proper brain functions. Generally, the cells in the human body die and are replaced by new cells, while in the case of a tumour, the old cells do not die and form an accumulation and continues to grow to form a mass as more and more cells are added to it.
Symptoms of Brain Tumour:
- Headache: Having headache on regular basis, without any history of having such frequent headaches in past, which becomes worse because of other pressure related activities, such as sneezing, coughing, exercising might be a possible symptom of brain tumour and issues related to such sudden and frequent headaches should be taken up with the doctor without any further delay.
- Seizures: Seizures (fits) are amongst the most common symptoms of brain tumour, which might be limited to a particular body part or the whole body. Seizures might even continue after the treatment of brain tumour because of the left scar tissues in the brain.
- Numbness in arms/legs: Numbness in any body part, especially arms and legs should also be get evaluated timely, so that, if the possible reason behind them is a brain tumour, then the same could be treated well on time.
- Balancing problems: Poor coordination and balancing problems also arise as the most prominent symptom for the brain tumour and hence such small changes must be evaluated and the person suffering should be taken to a doctor immediately to get treated without any delay.
- Memory problems: Lack of concentration, poor memory and short term memory loss are few of the possible symptoms that indicate the presence of tumour.
- Nausea or vomiting: Nausea or vomiting might be the symptoms of many other possible health issues, but a headache supported by nausea and/or vomiting is one of the many symptoms of a brain tumour and hence should not be ignored.
- Facial paralysis: The inability to keep the facial activities under control also indicates the presence of a possible brain tumour and the same should also be diagnosed as soon as one experiences it.
- Change in vision: A person suffering from brain tumour might also experience changes in the vision, dizziness, blurry vision, among other sight related issues.
- Change in speech: The inability to speak properly and changes in the speech of a person may also indicate a possible presence of a tumour.
- Hearing problems: Sudden occurrence of hearing problems and other hearing related disorders might have the brain tumour as a possible reason.
Diagnosing a brain tumour may include one or more of many tests, including CT scan, Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI), Angiogram and biopsy. One should never ignore the symptoms of the brain tumour and should get himself/herself checked since the brain tumours might result into permanent damages to the brain; hence such issues should never be ignored. If you wish to discuss any specific problem, you can consult a neurosurgeon.

Factbox: Ten laws that unashamedly discriminate against women
By Emma Batha
LONDON (Thomson Reuters Foundation) - Despite a global push for greater equality 20 years ago, many countries' laws show that men and women are still far from enjoying equal rights. Here is a snapshot of some of the more blatantly discriminatory laws.
MALTA: If a man kidnaps a woman, he can escape prosecution if he marries her.
SAUDI ARABIA: Women are barred from driving. A 1990 Fatwa says "women's driving of automobiles ... is a source of undeniable vices".
IRAN: A law passed in 2013 allows men to marry their adopted daughters from the age of 13.

Cesar Chavez at UCI March 24, 2014Posted by ucisca in Student Life.
Tags: Cesar Chavez, Student Activism
add a comment
On May 1, 1968, several UCI students formed the UCI Students for Delano Strikers (later, the UCI Grape Boycott Committee) to "inform the UCI community of the plight of the Delano strikers". Active efforts included collecting food for strikers, distributing literature, and engaging speakers on the Delano strike. The students also worked with the United Farm Workers Organizing Committee (UFWOC) to actively support labor and civil rights.
That same year, Cesar Chavez concluded a 25 day fast for non-violence on March 10, 1968. Cesar Chavez was founder and president of the United Farm Workers of America, which unionized California farm workers.
Almost 20 years later, Cesar Chavez visited UCI on March 6, 1985, engaging in a presentation sponsored by The University Center's Program Board as part of its "Remember When" series. This series examined how various political, social, and cultural phenomena in the prior thirty years impacted life in the 80s. The video of his speech, Cesar Chavez: the Man and the Movement, is available to view on the Online Archive of UCI History. A transcript of the speech is also available.
Here are excerpts from his powerful speech:
All my life, I have been driven by one dream, one goal, one vision: to overthrow a farm labor system in this nation that treats farm workers as if they are not important human beings.
Those who attack our union often say, "It's not really a union, it's something else. A social movement, a civil rights movement, it's something dangerous". They're half right. The United Farm Workers is first and foremost a union and like any other union, a union that either produces for its members on the bread and butter issues, or it doesn't survive. But the UFW has always been something more than a union. Although, it has never been dangerous if you believe in the Bill of Rights.
Once social change begins, it cannot be reversed. You cannot uneducate the person who has learned to read. You cannot humiliate the person who feels pride. You cannot oppress the people who are not afraid anymore.
So, what does Cesar Chavez Day commemorate? Chavez challenged the labor conditions of farm workers, promoting better pay and safer living conditions — and succeeded by using nonviolent tactics including boycotts, fasting, pickets, and strikes.
Represented materials were discovered in the Student Activities Office Records [AS-016]; Central Records [AS-004]; and United Farm Workers Information Fair Collection [MS-R015]. The recording of the Cesar Chavez presentation is from the UCI Instructional Resources Center Videotape Collection [AS-020].
The video of the presentation, Cesar Chavez: the Man and the Movement, is available to stream on the Online Archive of UCI History.

You remember the classic Simon game, right? The one where the electronic devise will blink a color and make a sound that you have to replicate by pushing the colored buttons.
At RubyConf 2008, I cornered Jim Weirich and asked his opinion on Limelight. He didn't feel like he had seen enough of it to give a good opinion. So we found an hour where we could both sit down and build a simple Limelight production. We decided to build Simon.
The result is really quite simple. It's a couple hundred lines of code, UI, game logic, and all. It's also got a suite of unit tests.
If Limelight is installed, you can download the production file, and double click it, or enter the url in the Startup Limelight Production.

The Source Code can be found on github.

SpaceX, a company run by PayPal cofounder and Tesla Motors CEO Elon Musk, hopes to soon pick up where NASA's 30-year shuttle program left off last July. With a little help from NASA, the company's designing the spacecraft's seating, lighting, storage spaces and environmental controls for the comfort and safety of its crew.
As you can see in the gallery below, this is not a tiny tin can where astronauts are crammed in like sardines - the company says Dragon's big enough for seven adults that are up to 6'5″ tall and weigh 250 pounds. There's enough room in the capsule for three others to stand and help the astronauts get comfortable in preparation for their mission.
Brags SpaceX on its website, "In fact, Dragon has so much interior volume, that we could place an entire three-person Russian Soyuz capsule descent module inside Dragon's pressure vessel."
How long will it be until this relatively large spacecraft - atop its mighty Falcon 9 booster rocket - makes it to the International Space Station? The company's not ready for human spaceflight just yet - the first step is to send an unmanned cargo version of the Dragon spacecraft filled with supplies to the International Space Station, a mission that was originally scheduled for February 7 of this year.
The company announced Friday it is aiming for a April 30 launch with plans for docking with the space station on May 3, according Aero News. Although this upcoming mission will test maneuverability and docking, a first for a privately developed spacecraft. SpaceX has contracted two cargo missions for this year, the first of which is tentatively scheduled for July. In all, SpaceX has 16 flights on its manifest through 2015.
So far, SpaceX has successfully flown the Falcon 9 rocket with the SpaceX Dragon capsule on top, in a mission on December 8, 2010. The spacecraft orbited the earth at an altitude of around 190 miles for three hours, and the company was able to test its maneuverability before it splashed down in the Pacific Ocean. Earlier this month, the Dragon spacecraft and its Falcon booster passed a crucial test, a dress rehearsal for its unmanned first voyage to the International Space Station.
Do you think private space exploration will be as successful as NASA's exploits?
Take a look at this gallery of the interior of the Dragon spacecraft and some of its other attributes:

Northern Ireland firebrand turned peacemaker Ian Paisley dies
By Maurice Neill
BELFAST (Reuters) - Firebrand Protestant cleric Ian Paisley, whose unlikely alliance with bitter Catholic rivals helped to bring a belated peace to Northern Ireland, died on Friday aged 88, his family said.
As the leading light of hardline Unionism, which wants to maintain links to the United Kingdom, Paisley stringently opposed any concession to the mainly Catholic nationalist community's desire for closer ties with the Irish Republic to the south.
But in a dramatic u-turn seven years ago, Paisley agreed to share power with former foes to become first minister in Northern Ireland's devolved government.
"I think we confounded the world by him, a pro-British, pro-Unionist politician, being able to work in a positive spirit with myself, an Irish Republican," said former Irish Republican Army commander Martin McGuinness, who became Paisley's deputy.
"A friendship grew out of that, and it's a friendship that lasted to this very day," McGuinness, the province's deputy first minister, told the Irish national broadcaster RTE.
Paisley's family said he died early on Friday and that a private funeral would be held in the coming days. "My beloved husband, Ian, entered his eternal rest this morning," his wife Eileen said in a statement.
His family did not specify the cause of death. Paisley had a history of heart trouble and fell ill with heart problems in 2005, writing afterwards that he was "walking in death's shadow". In 2011 he had a pacemaker fitted after being taken ill in the House of Lords and he spent 10 days in intensive care a year later with a heart condition.

The city of Hoi An, Vietnam, has tapped urban planning expertise from Portland State and the city of Portland to help it become a model "eco-city" in southeast Asia.
If the plans for green transportation, ecotourism, natural resource management, and energy efficiency are successful, Hoi An could become an example for sustainable development in other locations across Vietnam, a nation that is extremely vulnerable to climate change.
Experts predict a sea level rise of one meter in Vietnam by 2100, resulting in drastic effects on both the land and its residents. Heeding these warnings, officials want to prepare residents and seek out solutions to offset climate impacts.
In September 2011, a team of eleven PSU faculty and students, as well as staff from the city of Portland Bureau of Planning and Sustainability and the Portland Sustainability Institute (PoSI), conducted a three-day collaborative planning event in Hoi An. The problem-based workshop, or atelier, was the first of its kind, bringing together 50 Hoi An officials and community representatives to analyze the city's planning documents, prioritize projects, and outline goals for measuring success. The planning framework that PoSI has developed for Portland ecodistricts was applied to the Hoi An context.
The Vietnamese government, with support from the United Nations, wants to replicate PSU's atelier in other provinces, cities, and rural areas in Quang Nam province where Hoi An is located.
Hoi An hopes to integrate green design standards for new construction and retrofit existing infrastructure in the city. "They are very interested in success stories from Portland, like incorporating bioswales into road designs for storm water management," said Marcus Ingle, a professor in PSU's Hatfield School of Government who has worked on sustainable development and collaborative governance issues in Vietnam since 1993.
Ingle uses the Vietnam project as a case study for his students, many of whom go on to travel and do research there.
This year, a group of PSU graduate students will travel to Hoi An for 10 weeks or more to collaborate with local officials and residents on developing governance models that help establish local ownership of eco-city goals. Examples include energy conservation, infrastructure for bike and pedestrian traffic, and training workers for green jobs.
Hoi An is an ancient trading port designated as a UN World Heritage Site. PSU's partnership there is funded by the United Nations Human Settlements Program, or UN-HABITAT, which has also been instrumental in developing the eco-city model. Support from the Institute for Sustainable Solutions at Portland State helped facilitate student internships, faculty travel, and the development of the atelier last summer.
This fall, officials from the city of Hoi An will visit Portland State for PoSI's annual EcoDistrict Summit.
Ingle sees the partnership as a two-way learning opportunity for both countries. "Portland also has a lot to learn about sustainability from Vietnam, because their historical context is so much longer than ours. As flooding and other risks grow due to climate change, the Vietnamese will be leaders in planning and adapting emergency management strategies."

handle.read() | (handle.read() | (handle.read() | handle.read() << 8) << 8) << 8;
so I baically have to rewrite the DataInputStream class from scratch.
4. Re: C-style de-serialization?802316 Jul 26, 2011 7:55 AM (in response to 837309)In the Sun/Oracle JVM, the only way to get C-style access is to use the sun.misc.Unsafe class. It just as unsafe as using c-style pointers. ;) Its not portable to other JVM platforms.
This is NOT pure Java.
On the performance difference between Unsafe and ByteBuffer http://vanillajava.blogspot.com/2011/07/java-low-level-converting-between.html
Example code using Unsafe http://code.google.com/p/core-java-performance-examples/source/browse/trunk/src/main/java/com/google/code/java/core/ scroll down for the Unsafe examples.
Tips on this subject http://vanillajava.blogspot.com/2011/05/how-to-get-c-like-performance-in-java.html
While methods in the Unsafe class are notionally native calls, you won't find a C source file for them in the OpenJDK. This is because much of the functionality is inlined into the code. e.g. Unsafe.getLong(long address) turns into a single machine code instruction, not a call to a method which does this.
5. Re: C-style de-serialization?802316 Jul 26, 2011 8:02 AM (in response to 837309)
To make matters worse, C types are in Intel byte format while Java types are in Motorola byte format.C types on AMD/Intel are in little endian/Intel order. C type on Sparc/RISC system are in big-endian i.e. whatever the native architecture does. BTW, the x64 64-bit extension is a design owned my AMD and licensed to Intel. Intel have designed RISC processors which natively support big endian.
Java types internally also use whatever order the platform natively support. However DataInput/OutputStream only support big endian or "Network order" i.e. the order TCP uses.
If you use ByteBuffer.order(ByteBuffer.native()) it will use the native order of the system. If you do this is about 50% slower than using Unsafe. (Close enough that you should use ByteBuffer unless there is a very good reason to do other wise)
Note: char in Java is 16-bit, use byte if you want to read C-style chars.

Why the new study on high-fructose corn syrup and weight gain is flawed
By Nicci Micco, March 26, 2010 - 12:04pm
Nicci asks: Do you avoid high-fructose corn syrup?
I think it's important to see who is paying for the research or article to be published.

I avoid HFCS along with other empty calories. As a successful Weight Watcher, I have learned to focus on foods which lead better health. Those are wholesome & unprocessed choices rather than those with long ingredient lists. It's working for me!

I did my own research! About 18 months ago, I REALLY started reading the ingredients lists, looking for HFCS. I was shocked to discover how many products contain it - most notably Special K branded products & Wonder-Hostess (even most of their breads). Ritz crackers & Oreos - I dare anybody to want to eat just one. Granted, these are not considered to be good-for-you. After diligently avoiding anything with HFCS, if I crave more of something, 99% of the time it contains HFCS. Hence, eat more, weigh more! I agree that the body metabolizes it totally differently than plain ole' sugar.

I never buy or eat anything with HFCS or with any added sugar. I also avoid anything white, including white bread, white potatoes, rice, and pasta. I eat less than 10% of calories from fat, and avoid all saturated fats, so I buy no-fat milk, no-fat butter spread, no-fat sour cream, no-fat cottage cheese, and low fat 2% cheese slices. Reading labels is the key, and so I don't buy many processed foods. I love all vegetables, and greens, salads with a little soy based low fat dressing, and lean meats, chicken or fish, 3-4 oz at a meal. I love water and tea and coffee, no sugar added. And sometimes I like some diet ginger ale. I do indulge with a few little squares of Perugina bittersweet chocolate.

I think you are saying the study isnt correct, but the evidence you are giving to refute the study is very minute. I think you are picking apart the minor details. I for one believe that HFCS would make someone gain weight vs the same calories they would eat in table sugar. That being said... I do like the whole goal of your argument which, in general, is to limit sweeteners all together.

Being a Nutritionist, I try to keep up with all the latest information. Last year I was alerted by this article, found in the Journal of Environmental Health, that indicates mercury is formed in the body from consumption of High Fructose Corn Syrup (HFCS). I have since been very, very careful not to consume this sweetener. This is difficult since HFCS is found in many food products, including: bread, crackers, ketchup, BBQ sauce, salad dressings, most proceesed foods, etc. I find it's best to eat make your foods from natural, whole ingredients, such as: fruits/veg, meat, natural cheese, legumes, etc...

Yes I do and for many reasons:
1. I do not agree with the way it is manufactured.
I could go on but that highlights my concerns and reasons for avoiding it.

Inventory constraints drove Focus sales down 2.2% in July, while Escape dropped 0.5% and Fusion fell 2.1%.
Ford says Focus inventory should increase with small-car sales slowdown in fall and winter.
Ford posts a 6.4% year-over-year gain in July sales in the U.S. on a daily basis, a performance it says was hampered by continued tight inventories on key models.
The auto maker has been plagued all year by low inventories of hot-selling vehicles such as the Ford Fusion midsize sedan, Focus C-car and Escape cross/utility vehicle.
Fusion inventories will be bolstered once production of the model ramps up this fall at the Flat Rock, MI, plant, Erich Merkle, Ford's top U.S. sales analyst, says. However, supply of the Focus and Escape likely will remain tight throughout the rest of the summer, as the plants building those vehicles already are running at full capacity.
Focus days' supply, which now is in the high 30s, should normalize beginning this fall, Merkle predicts.
"Small cars are very seasonal," he says in a conference call with journalists and analysts to discuss July sales results. "Spring and summer are the peak months, but in the fall and winter, we see small cars drop off a bit in favor of trucks and utilities."
Focus sales dipped 2.2% in July from year-ago, while Escape deliveries dropped 0.5% and Fusion sales slid 2.1%.
Despite that, overall retail sales were up 19%, Merkle says, marking the company's best July result since 2005.
Several models performed well, including the F-150 pickup, which posted a 16.8% year-over-year increase to 56,083 units.
Ford is adding a shift at its Kansas City, MO, plant to increase F-150 production, as sales are expected to remain strong despite the launch of new pickups by top competitors such as General Motors.
"In the last three months, Ford dealers delivered over 200,000 pickups, and we don't anticipate that segment doing anything but slightly increasing as we approach the end of the year," says Ken Czubay, vice president-U.S. marketing.
The Ford Explorer turned in a strong July, posting a 12.7% increase vs. like-2012 to 14,089. Czubay says Ford is adjusting the mix at its Chicago assembly plant, which also builds the Ford Taurus and Lincoln MKS, to increase Explorer supply.
Ford Edge and Flex CUV deliveries increased 10.2% and 11.3%, respectively, in the month, while the Fiesta B-car turned in a strong performance with an 81.3% gain.
Czubay says much of the Fiesta gain is due to demand in coastal markets, particularly California.
"Fiesta retail sales in Los Angeles were up 71% in July, while San Francisco saw a 79% increase," he says. "Fiesta retail sales are growing at five times the overall subcompact segment in California."
Among models with declining sales in July were the Mustang (off 24.8%), Expedition (down 2.4%) and Lincoln MKZ (declining 11.0%).

PUTRAJAYA: Perbadanan Perumahan Rakyat 1Malaysia (PR1MA) houses will be kept affordable though the houses are built using the Japanese advanced pre-fabricated technology.
PR1MA chairman Datuk Seri Jamaluddin Jarjis said the prices would be at par with the present prices of between RM150,000 and RM300,000.
"This is made possible because of the volume. We have been mandated to build 500,000 homes and with such a volume, we would be able to offer houses within the present price range," he said yesterday.
Jamaluddin was speaking to newsmen after the signing of a Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) between PR1MA and Sekisui Chemical Co Ltd to conduct a feasible study to set up a new plant for advanced pre-fabricated modular houses in Malaysia at the Prime Minister's Office here.
PR1MA was represented by its chief executive officer Datuk Abdul Mutalib Alias while Sekisui's head of international promotion Masaya Fujiwara signed for the company.
Prime Minister Datuk Seri Najib Tun Razak witnessed the ceremony.
Sekisui is one of Japan's largest home builders and have so far constructed 600,000 pre-fabricated modular houses.
Jamaluddin said that through the technology, PR1MA houses could be built between 30 and 60 days as 90% of the construction process would be done in the plant while the remaining 10% in the construction site.
"We aim to begin the construction of the first project using the technology in 14 months' as we need to identify the suitable locations for the plants.
"The locations of the plants would depend on where we will build most of the houses and as off now, one plant would surely be located in the Klang Valley," he said.
PR1MA has announced that it would build a total of 38,757 houses in 30 projects, with some already in construction.
Their houses are for those with individual or combined gross monthly household income of between RM2,500 and RM7,500 and that they should not own more than one property in the country.

Understanding Grief
When God gets angry
From a Christian perspective, one of the more telling pictures of divine anger is the cleansing of the Temple. John's version of the story goes like this:After this he went down to Capernaum with his mother, his brothers, and his disciples; and they remained there for a few days. The Passover of the Jews was near, and Jesus went up to Jerusalem. In the temple he found people selling cattle, sheep, and doves, and the money-changers seated at their tables. Making a whip of cords, he drove all o … [Read more...]
Is God angry all the time?
Judging from what directees have told me --- and even from a good deal of what is in print --- a lot of people are fairly sure that God is angry. Angry some of the time, maybe angry all the time.Some fairly reputable scholars have even argued that is why we need to retool the Christian faith. "Out with the angry old man in the sky --- in with something new."The problem with this argument is that it relies on caricatures of God that are not a part of the Christian tradition. Oh, to be sure, … [Read more...]
I'm as mad as hell. Should I feel guilty about it?
Not all anger is the same: Anger can be a vague, generalized feelingIt can be occasioned by a specific set of circumstances It can arise out of the disparity between what we want and what is (And what we want can be a healthy, good thing to want…and it might not be) It can arise out of the disparity between what is and what should be (And we can be wrong or right about what should be)We typically mishandle angerBy acting out of it unreflectively Or by repressing itAnd for that r … [Read more...]

Eating as Affirmation

Let's eat."Eating as affirmation: Affirmation of God's goodness, affirmation of life, affirmation of life's goodness.Small wonder, then, that festivals and eating are so much a part of religious celebrations and small wonder that heaven is portrayed as a banquet.Invite your friends and family into your home, cook a meal, share your table.

The Question of Size
For years now Protestant churches have been locked in an endless debate over the issue of size. At the extremes, there are a few mega-church leaders who have touted the virtues of congregational growth and who argue that their size is a sign of their faithfulness. On the other side of the debate --- the leaders of shrinking denominations have made a virtue of their reality by asserting that small is beautiful, arguing that prophetic churches inevitably drive people away.But the debate among c … [Read more...]

MPs in support of a Labour amendment for mandatory sex and relationship education in schools hope they'll be enough parliamentary time to allow for a debate and vote.
Yesterday, Shadow Home Secretary and Shadow Minister for Equalities, Yvette Cooper, told PinkNews.co.uk that stronger sex and relationship education (SRE), which included provision for LGBT students, could dramatically help in the fight against homophobic bullying and poor rates of sexual health in the LGBT community.
Labour has tabled an amendment to the Children and Families Bill for statutory Personal, Social, Health and Economic (PSHE) Education, but it remains uncertain if they'll be enough parliamentary time to allow for a debate and vote on the amendment. It has to be done before 6pm on Tuesday.
The National AIDS Trust welcomed Ms Cooper's comments on Monday and its Chief Executive, Deborah Jack, said to PinkNews.co.uk: "Gay and bisexual men remain the population group most likely to acquire HIV in the UK. The latest figures show in 2012 there was more new HIV diagnosis among gay and bisexual men in a single year than ever before, while new diagnoses among young gay and bisexual men have doubled in the past ten years.
"HIV education therefore needs to contain clear, sensitive and sensible messages on sexual health, HIV and same-sex relationships that meet the needs of all young people."
Guy Slade, parliamentary officer at Terrence Higgins Trust said: Too many young LGBT people are badly let down by inadequate sex and relationships education in our schools. Even in those schools where SRE is taught, teachers can be reluctant to discuss sexual orientation in the classroom; unsurprising given how many years it was forbidden by law. This means that young LGBT people's sexuality is not being recognised and homophobia is going unchallenged.
"Making sex and relationships education part of the statutory curriculum would help to raise standards in teaching and ensure every child is taught properly about important issues like safer sex, how to have healthy and respectful relationships, and that it's ok to be gay."
In March, Children's Minister Elizabeth Truss confirmed that Personal, Social, Health and Economic (PSHE) Education in England would remain a non-statutory subject.
Last month, a report by Ofsted showed more than a third of schools in England are failing to provide pupils with age-appropriate sex and relationship education.
Too few teachers have the expertise to discuss issues such as sexuality and domestic violence, the schools watchdog warned.

Lucy's perfect world came crashing down around her when she heard those four dreaded words: "I don't love you". Followed by the slamming of the door.
Six months later, still in shock and denial, Lucy boarded a plane to go somewhere far away. She needed to be alone, with no memories of Paul. While in Egypt she met Sebastian Steel, whose origin was as potent as his magnetism; he was half English, half Italian, and a successful hotelier in Sharm el Sheikh and Cairo. Sebastian also had another secret--the one he could not tell Lucy. Their relationship started and developed, and they began to realize they had a lot in common and discovered that their lives were inextricably linked. The two of them were soon embarking on an exciting journey brought about by the enigmatic, unseen, but ever present Primrose, who had brought these two together. Finally, after seven years in Egypt, Sebastian returned home to England, back to the cottage he had shared with his mother, but he was returning with Lucy--the woman with whom he had fallen in love.
©2008 Mary-Elizabeth Pinfield (P)2015 Mary-Elizabeth Pinfield
I am an author of 25 titles in a variety of genres and lengths.
No. I don't usually read romance novels.
The narration was excellent.
Lucy. Melanie emphasised her pain very well.
There's always hope.
The story was fairly well written although somewhat repetitive.
"sweet romance"
Yes I would. The narration is very easy to listen to. The story can be listened to in a few hours so it is perfect for relaxing at the beach or on a journey and the story is nice and sweet.
I liked how the author used the cottage to weave the theme of fate through the story. It added a nice element and gave the characters something real to bond over.
The narrator portrays the emotions of the characters very well. I could feel the hurt, betrayal and loss that Lucy was feeling at the beginning of the novel. I could hear the laughter and humour in Lucy's voice as she developed a relationship with Sebastian. I don't think I would have enjoyed this novel as much if it wasn't for Melanie Fraser's narration.
The story had potential to have so much more drama. I found the romance to be unrealistic. Getting divorced, meeting, falling in love and the inevitable Happy Ever After occurred over a few weeks on holiday. Her parents were far too happy that she got engaged to man she met on holiday while she was getting over a divorce. I'm 35 and I can imagine how my parents would react. My mother would probably chase the guy back to the airport with the sweeping brush!!
I thought the author could have extended the story and their relationship in England a bit more before they settled down. I would also have liked to know how Sebastian managed his Egyptian hotels from England and was it really the last they would hear from the duplicitous Tara? But in saying that, I enjoyed the story and would listen to it again.
This is a sweet, simple romance and I would recommend it to anyone who wants an easy, relaxing listen.
I received a copy of this audio book from the narrator in exchange for an honest and unbiased review.
"Sweet Romance"
--I received a copy of this audiobook in exchange for an honest review.
This is the first book I have listened to by Elizabeth Chapelle. This was a sweet romance. The thing that really caught my attention was the beautiful descriptions of Egypt. The story of Lucy and Sebastian was slowly evolving, and you can't help but love both characters. You could feel Lucy's pain in the beginning of the story, and how she grew stronger as time went on. Sebastian, extremely patient and tender, was the perfect gentleman. The way their history intertwines makes the story even more fun. I do wish it was longer giving some additional history as they travel back to England, and would loved to have seen more scenes with Lucy and her ex-husband. A little more drama would have been fun.
The narration of this book by Melanie Fraser was wonderful. She brought the whole story to life, always keeping me listening. She gives each character their own life, with feelings and emotions that draw you in. I love her narrations, always able to tell who is speaking and makes you feel as if you know the characters.
This was a short enjoyable listen.

The 90'' Turbo Air direct draw club top draft beer dispenser with four keg capacity is truly amazing. Elite Restaurant Equipment could not have been more helpful with this recommendation and also gave me a great price. They also offered FREE shipping. I could not be more pleased with this unit and this company.

The 90'' Turbo Air club top direct draw draft beer dispenser with 4 keg capacity has been a blessing in my bar. The unit is large and in charge. This dispenser is at the center of my bar and provides crisp, clean, cold, and fresh beer to all my patrons. Elite Restaurant Equipment helped my business out by providing FREE shipping. The unit came slightly later than the projected estimated delivery date which is why I rate it only a 4.

I am pleased to report that by the end of September High Performance Computing (HPC) Wales had achieved over 60 collaborative projects with businesses and academics across Wales from a variety of sectors including: energy and environment, creative industries, health, engineering, finance and ICT. In addition, over 800 individuals had either participated in a project or received training from HPC Wales.
We have a large number of HPC projects in the pipeline and a rapidly increasing number of individuals wanting to learn more about high performance computing, which is most encouraging.
At the end of October, we held a workshop in London that gathered HPC centres from around the UK along with the Technology Strategy Board (TSB) and the European and Physical Sciences Research Council (EPSRC) to start to articulate how HPC Centres can further support the uptake of high performance computing amongst SMEs.
It is vital that we work together to support industry in the UK and overcome the barriers to HPC usage, helping businesses become competitive internationally and building on the UKs reputation for research and innovation.
If you would like to know more or discuss a project idea, get in touch.

Reaganesque detachment for Obama
I was disappointed to hear yesterday that President Obama is returning from holiday in Hawaii to Washington to immerse himself in negotiations with the Republican leadership over the fiscal cliff and the debt limit. The President should simplify his role in the process by being more aloof and speaking directly to the American people. Moreover, he should, for now focus on getting us past the debt limit. Treasury Secretary Geithner, and the leaders in Congress – Boehner and McConnell for the Republicans, and Pelossi and Reid for the Democrats are all at the same level – let them negotiate. The President needs to be above that. He should state his position clearly to the American people, but otherwise stay aloof.
On the fiscal cliff – a central promise in President Obama's campaign was to make the Bush Tax cuts permanent for everybody except those earning over $250,000. Since he was elected on that position he can't immediately turn around and agree to something else (I know that sounds familiar).
On the debt limit – that is a matter for Congress — the constitution gives the President no role in setting the debt limit. President Obama should point emphasise to the public how urgent the matter is, but it is Congress's job to ensure that the Treasury is empowered to pay the Federal Government's debts. Then he should refuse to be drawn into discussion of it. Its not the President's job to set the debt limit.
Ultimately it is best for Democrats if the Bush tax cuts are never renewed. Democrats were against the tax cuts in 2001 and 2003 because they were regressive and they were fiscally irresponsible. Well, what has changed? The Democrats' position in 2001 and 2003 was principled and congruent with their belief in large transfer payments in the form of medicare and social security entitlements. The Democrats want a big role for the Federal Government, so ultimately to fund that they need to raise a lot of tax revenue. Why then don't they just let the Bush tax cuts expire? Or, if they are concerned about the short term effect on growth, why not accept a two year extension for all taxpayers – just as they did in December 2010 and then let them expire in December 2014.
Making the tax cuts permanent is playing into the hands of the Tea Party. The reason that Republicans are so opposed to tax increases is because their long term strategy is to 'starve the beast'. If taxes can be kept low enough for long enough, then Government has to shrink. The logic of this approach is ineluctable. By reversing their position in 2012 from what it was in 2001 and 2003 the Democrats are hastening the ultimate day of fiscal reckoning for Big Government.
In any case, the debt limit is a much bigger issue for the world economy. Going over the fiscal cliff will be a very slow motion and low impact train wreck and the train may not even come off the rails. In contrast, a default on US Treasury debt would smash consumer and business confidence around the world, with consequences for the weak global economy that cannot be predicted.
The Republicans want to use the debt limit for repeated bargaining every two years in which they get reductions in entitlements in exchange for an increase in the limit to last for two years. Why would the President play that game? He does not have to engage in negotiations at all. He just needs to repeatedly remind the American people that if they are worried about the debt limit then ring their Congressional representative because the debt limit is the business of Congress and not the Whitehouse.
Finally, President Obama should step back from the negotiations and remain aloof from them because he does not have a good track record with negotiations. Can you think of a single situation in which the President has persuaded or cajoled others into changing their position in his interest? With the Republicans in Congress? At the Global Warming Summit in Copenhagen? With the building of settlements by Israel? With the protection of the Taliban by Pakistan? Bomb building in Iran or North Korea? Currency manipulation in China? I can't think of a single significant example of President Obama using the power of his office to get what he wants in negotiations. Better to let his lieutenant Geithner do the negotiating – but from a position that the President doesn't really have to do anything either on the fiscal cliff or the debt limit.
2 Responses to "Reaganesque detachment for Obama"
I'm surprised they're negotiating at all. It's almost impossible, politically, to agree to tax rises or spending cuts, so the easiest option would be to wait until after the fiscal cliff kicks in. Then they'll be negotiating tax cuts and spending increases.
Same thing, economically, but much easier politically.
I think the rhetoric should be " the Republicans have acted like terrorists for 20 years – shutting down the govt, debt ceiling negotiations twice I think, and now fiscal cliff and Debt Ceiling again. We don't negotiate with terrorists!"

3D printers shape new path for future
Technology can be used to build just about anything
LOS ANGELES, Calif. - It isn't your average desktop printer. Imagine a 3D printer that can build a body part, a house or even a gun.
The revolutionary technology is already being used in the Coachella Valley and is being pioneered in the southland.
News Channel 3 took an inside look at how 3D printers work and what they could mean for the future. They're hailed as the future of manufacturing.
"It is building objects in a layer-wise fashion, building things layer by layer," said Behrokh Khoshnevis, a professor of industrial and systems engineering at U.S.C.
To understand how the technology works, think of an inkjet printer that shoots miniscule droplets of ink onto paper. A 3D printer deposits droplets of plastic or other material and builds an object from the ground up.
Khoshnevis has been experimenting with 3D printers for nearly two decades.
"The decision has been to break down the 3D problem into a bunch of 2D problems and then every layer basically can be much easier produced with a computerized method," Khoshnevis said.
Perhaps the largest advantage of these printers is the speed. Khoshnevis used a 3D printer to print News Channel 3's call letters, KESQ, in just five minutes. But he's gaining attention for creating a 3D printer that can build a 2,500 square-foot home, in just 20 hours.
Khoshnevis said, "The only thing we've ever built layer by layer, and we have built it for thousands of years in that way, are these buildings."
The massive printer, worth around $500,000, lays concrete and interlocking steel bars to frame the structure. It can build a multistory custom home equipped with the infrastructure for plumbing and electrical work.
Khoshnevis hopes the technology can help people all over the world. But the construction industry isn't the only field taking advantage of 3D printing's precision and efficiency.
Dr. Raj Sinha is a valley orthopedic surgeon who's among the first in the country to use 3D printed surgical guides for knee implants. The guides are custom made to match the patient's anatomy and they allow the surgeon to make subtle cuts to the bone so the implant fits properly.
"We can take the technology of CT scans, model the patient's own anatomy and build a device specific to them," said Dr. Sinha. "So it's no longer a compromise of size or shape or fit."
Soon individuals may even be able to buy their own 3D printers, but there are questions about the types of things people could build at home.
A Texas man created the first handgun built with a 3D printer. The potential implications are troubling, especially when it comes to regulation.
"They're not going to be very sophisticated guns, but if you want to have something that fires and hurts someone, you can do it very simply," Khoshnevis said.
As with all new technologies, 3D printing carries risks as well as benefits. But its unlimited potential could shape the way we build our future.

Re: fog light housing..
The fog light housing is the lens/back cover that houses the bulbs. I assume you mean you're just trying to find the bracket for the fog light? If so, you can't buy it without buying the housing.
I needed a bracket after a run in with a deer 2 weeks after I bought the car... I wound up rigging up a makeshift clamp contraption until I found one in a junkyard and nabbed it for $20. That's probably your best bet.
Or, you could buy a set of the clear fogs on Ebay that come with the bracket. Upgrade!

I'm in the same boat. Hit a small piece of a blown tire and cracked my wheelhouse liners and twisted the driver's fog light to the side. The light itself is fine but it broke some parts near the screw/bolt that holds it down or whatever it does. Anyone ever find a cheap place or is a scrap yard still a better option? Certainly beats a whole new light. I'd like to use my fog lights actually but I'm not sure how to stop it from aiming up at oncoming driver's.

You can flash back but Subaru will be able to tell you flashed the ecu. I found this out yesterday after talking to my dealerships senior mechanic. He explained the process to me but all I got out of it was they take information from the ecu and send it to Subaru to determine if it's been flashed. He also told me to leave the car as it is and to stay away from any mods because of the potential to ruin my engine. He did say a cat back wouldn't hurt.
Yeah I sure they would be able to tell anything you did to the car. JD I dont anything about open source tuning I think a cobb would be better if I were to do it at all. Warranty really worries me.
Any way you cut it, if you mod your car, you risk warranty coverage. Even with an accessPORT

True.... I think I am gonna wait until 36,00 miles when warranty is over for now I will continue to mod the exterior.
You can get pretty close, with proper monitoring hardware. I'd prefer to have the tuner in the car, personally.Originally Posted by jd92677
One advantage of a custom dyno tune is that you're not doing repeated WOT high-speed runs on public roadways. There should be a checkup/cleanup on the road afterwards, where you will be doing them, but you can get the tune dialed in pretty well in a controlled environment.

"Never trust anything that bleeds for a week and lives ..."
But technically, a TP tune is sort of a protune as it's not just a generic OTS map that everyone uses. You get that level of adjustment necessary for any parts you may have or for climate/altitude. It gets more specific where as the Cobb OTS maps are just maps for everyone. FWIW though, especially for the $85 price tag...I'd take a TP tune using a tactrix cable over a Cobb OTS tune anyway, for price and for the minor level of adjustment you get provided.

That's sound advice if you are concerned with the warranty. Look at it this way, you may never need warranty work, but if you do.. it pays to be on the straight n narrow.
I didn't tune mine until 60K mi so warranty was not an issue. I will say though that the ap and tractix/romraider are only interfaces to tune with. Neither has an influence on the quality of tune.
Like any open source software/hardware though there is no support other than web forums and personal opinion for the tractix/romradier route.... its on you to maintain, troubleshoot.. etc. The only advantage is cost savings. If you're computer saavy and can confidently work software/hardware config.. this is a much cheaper alternative.
The Cobb AP isn't cheap, however does come with lifetime support for software and hardware. You get access to their other software products as well as their online forums. This is why its more expensive. They also include ots (off the shelf) mapping for free with the AP as well as being able to access their website to grab other ap maps for popular bolt on mods. These are good enough for most but remember you dont have to use them. You can install an AP and go right to a tuner to have a protune done.
so its purely up to you which interface you choose. Everyone's needs are different. One isn't better than the other performance wise, but they are individualy better or not better for each user depending on needs and useability. Most often, people choose whatever their local tuner prefers. That way they are open to protune when they decide and dont have to change up or give up the interface.
