After six years and three legislative sessions of sharp debate divided along party lines, the Texas Legislature passed a law in 2011 that required voters to show a photo ID in order to vote. The House passed its version in March, 101-48. After differences between the Senate and House versions were ironed out, both chambers approved the final version, SB 14, in May and sent it to Gov. Rick Perry, who had declared the issue an emergency item early in the session.
However, more than a year and a full election cycle after its passage, the law is still not in effect, its implementation first held up by the U.S. Department of Justice, then denied by a federal circuit court. Its ultimate fate could be decided by the U.S. Supreme Court.
Texans have been allowed to cast their votes after presenting their voter registration card, which was then checked against their precinct list. Voters who didn't have the card — but whose names were on the list — could sign an affidavit confirming they didn't have their cards, and, upon presenting any of a long list of approved documents, would then be able to cast their ballots. In the event the voter lacked any of those approved items, the state still allowed a provisional vote to be cast, with the burden of verification falling to the local voting board to verify the ballot within a week of the election.
The new law would require voters to provide government-issued ID cards including U.S passports and military IDs, Texas drivers' licenses or personal IDs issued by the Department of Public Safety. Student IDs, such as those issued by state universities, are not accepted.
People ages 70 and over, along with persons with disabilities documented in writing by either the Social Security Administration or designated by the Veteran's Administration as having a "disability rating of at least 50 percent" are exempt from the new law's requirements. The law also stipulates specific actions the state must take to aid enforcement: Special advance notice on changes with the law must be given to voters, election officials must get training on the new provisions, and state-approved IDs must be provided free of charge.
No consideration was given to other costs that might be incurred with the new law, however. For example, acquiring supporting documents for such IDs carries its own costs, and there are no DPS offices in 27 of Texas' 254 counties, potentially leaving some Texans to travel 100 miles or more to obtain their free ID.
The federal government's intervention into how Texas conducts its elections has its roots in the Voting Rights Act of 1965, which aimed to ensure the 15th Amendment was not circumvented.
In Section 5 of the Voting Rights Act, all or parts of 16 states are required to receive federal clearance before making any changes to voting laws, either by seeking a determination from the U.S. Court of Appeals District of Columbia Circuit or approval from the Justice Department. For Texas, one of nine states entirely under the jurisdiction of the Voting Rights Act, passing a voter ID law guaranteed federal scrutiny.
In July 2011, Texas formally asked the Justice Department to "preclear" the law and allow it to go into effect Jan. 1, 2012. The federal government has 60 days to take one of three actions: approve the request, deny it or ask for more information.
In September, the Justice Department told Texas to resubmit its application for preclearance, along with more information about how it would educate voters to the new requirements and how it would train election officials. It further instructed the state to provide demographic details about the estimated 605,000-plus voters who have no photo ID, including how many have Spanish surnames, in what counties they reside and their racial backgrounds.
By forcing Texas to resubmit its application, the Justice Department window to act was again reset to 60 days.
In October, lacking the specific information requested, Texas nevertheless sent in what it had been able to cobble together, submitting a U.S. Census Bureau list of all Hispanic surnames in Texas, which the state offered to cross-check both against its voter rolls and Department of Public safety records –– which only began including the designation "Hispanic" as part its licensing paperwork in 2009.
In November, the Justice Department came back saying it still didn't have the answers it needed to determine whether Texas' voter ID law would "have the effect of denying or abridging the right to vote on account of race, color, or membership in a language minority group," and again requested more information. That triggered yet another 60-day window for the federal government.
Jan. 1 came and went without the law taking effect. On Jan. 13, 2012, Texas resubmitted application for clearance, the window for preclearance long gone. On Jan. 23, Texas Attorney General Greg Abbott, in anticipation of either further delay or outright denial from the Justice Department, chose the only other option available to Texas under Section 5 of the Voting Rights Act: he filed suit against the federal government.
Noting that the Supreme Court had upheld a similar voter ID law in Indiana, Abbott framed the lawsuit as an attempt to get the federal government to recognize Texas' right to protect its electoral process from fraud. Opponents of the law pointed out that examples of this type of fraud — showing up at the polls claiming to be someone else and voting — is almost non-existent, and some say the law's real intent is to disenfranchise poor, elderly and ethnic minority voters — blocs that often vote Democratic.
Debatable questions of intent aside, Abbott's example of Indiana's law raised a crucial point: Indiana does not fall under the provisions of the Voting Rights Act. South Carolina, on the other hand, like Texas entirely under the sway of the Act, saw its law,less restrictive than Texas' in that it offered free rides for citizens to get their IDs, struck down in December 2011.
The case went to trial in July 2012, heard by the United States District Court for the District of Columbia, as designated by the Voting Rights Act. After five days of testimony, the three-judge panel issued an Aug. 30 decision striking down Texas' voter ID law.
Writing in the decision that "record evidence demonstrates that, if implemented, SB 14 will likely have a retrogressive effect," the judges also chided Texas in the decision for its "failure to act with diligence or a proper sense of urgency." In an editorial in The Dallas Morning News the day after the decision was released, one of the judges, Justice David Tatel, an appointee of President Clinton, called Abbot's comparison of Texas' law to laws passed in Indiana (and Georgia, a state included as a whole in the Voter's Rights Act) "a gross misreading," saying that both of those states had included many measures to make obtaining ID both easy and nearly free of cost. Tatel ended his editorial with a suggestion for Texas lawmakers, lifted directly out of the circuit court's decision:
Nothing in this opinion remotely suggests that Section 5 bars all covered jurisdictions from implementing photo ID laws. To the contrary … such laws might well be pre-cleared if they ensure (1) that all prospective voters can easily obtain free photo ID and (2) that any underlying documents required to obtain that ID are truly free of charge.
Although Texas' law did provide for the state to provide free IDs, it failed to offer mechanisms that would make them easily obtained and nearly free of cost –– a difficult and perhaps prohibitively expensive proposition in a huge state with a widely-scattered population.
Abbott promised to appeal the case to the Supreme Court. Meanwhile, SB 14 languishes, unenforced; Texas voters were not required to show their IDs in the 2012 elections. In early January, 2013, at the beginning of the 83rd session, State Rep. Eric Johnson, D-Dallas, filed five bills directly related to voting in Texas. One of them, House Bill 465, calls for the repeal of the Texas Voter ID.

Kerry demands explanation concerning death of immigrant while in federal custody
Senator John Kerry yesterday wrote a letter to Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) demanding an investigation into the death of a Brazilian immigrant from Milford. Edmar Alves Araujo, 34, died Tuesday after being picked up after a routine traffic stop. Arajuo's sister says he wasn't given anti-seizure medicine to treat his epilepsy, despite her attempts to deliver the medication.
"There are serious allegations and unanswered questions surrounding Mr. Araujo's death while in the custody of ICE. No matter what you think of our immigration policy, we should all agree that everyone deserves to be treated humanely, and we should all agree that for the peace of mind of a family that has lost a loved one and public confidence in ICE itself that answers should be provided quickly and candidly," said Senator Kerry.
The text of the letter is as follows:
Assistant Secretary Julie Meyers
Department of Homeland Security
U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement
425 I Street, N.W. - Room 7100
Washington, D.C. 20536
Dear Assistant Secretary Meyers,
I write today with regard to one of my constituents who recently died while being detained by your agency. Edmar Alves Araujo, from Milford, Massachusetts, was reported dead on Tuesday, August 7th shortly after he was taken into federal custody. Mr. Araujo was detained by Rhode Island Police after being stopped for a traffic violation and then subsequently transferred to federal authorities when his immigration status was discovered.
When Mr. Araujo arrived at the U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) Office of Detention and Removal in Providence, Rhode Island it is reported that he began to show signs of medical distress and was taken to Rhode Island Hospital where he was later pronounced dead. Mr. Araujo had epilepsy and needed a daily medication to control his seizures. His death is particularly distressing because there are reports that the ICE officers knew of Mr. Araujo's condition and did not allow his medication to be dispended. Mr. Araujo's sister says she brought the medication to the Providence facility but was not allowed to leave the medication for Mr. Araujo or see him.
I respectfully request that a full investigation be done into Mr. Araujo's death. It is gravely important that those being held in ICE detention be allowed necessary access to medical services and medications. Any reports of ICE officers ignoring a serious medical condition should not be taken lightly. I would also like to know what procedures ICE has in place to ensure detainees that may not speak English are able to communicate any medical needs or humanitarian claims. I thank you for your assistance on this matter and look forward to your reply.
John F. Kerry
United States Senate

Wondered if anyone has had to replace the hood release lever in a 99-2003 Silverado (or similar) truck. Mine broke off and have to wedge it back in, just right, to get it to work and cannot easily see exactly how it is replaced (slipped discs in neck and lower back, so didn't slide all the way in with a flashlight and give it a really good look - I'd never get back out lol). I've looked up the replacement part - but the photos are at an angle where you can't see how the H they are installed.
Just wondering how hard it is to switch out with a new one, and if it takes very long; no stupid rivets needing drilled out or anything? (not going to attempt it for a few more weeks until feeling better, but thinking if very hard to do, I might be better off having a buddy switch it out rather than making my neck/back 10x worse).

Time flies when you have so much news to work on, and in the green world, journalists are bombarded by it. Here are this week's news roundup :
EPA says switch them out
To date, one million switches, which contains minute amount of mercury, have been removed from scrapped vehicles through the National Vehicle Mercury Switch Recovery Program formed by the Environmental Protection Agency and several auto-related industry groups. The EPA said significant amount of mercury emissions can be released if mercury switches are not removed from retired vehicles.
Critical biomass of investment
The US Dept. of Agriculture and the Dept. of Energy will invest up to $18.4m for 21 biomass R&D and demonstration projects. The technologies developed is expected to lead to production of biobased products and fuels.
Lanxess' bright idea
Specialty chemicals group Lanxess and solar modules manufacturer CetroSolar have developed a cheaper production method for photovoltaic modules. The technology is based on a new ethylene vinyl acetate that encases the solar modules.
More sulfur sweepers for DuPont
DuPont starts up its clean technologies facilities in El Paso, Texas, and in Linden, New Jersey, that provide spent sulfur acid regeneration and sulfur gas recovery services to the petroleum refining industry. DuPont says it can transport refiners' used sulfuric acid to the plants or the company can build, own and operate an on-site facility adjacent to their refinery.
Lithium energized
Valence Technology of Texas will expand production capacity of its lithium phosphate battery packs, while the US Department of Energy's Argonne National Laboratory signed a licensing deal with Toda Kogyo of Japan for the commercial production and sales of Argonne's patented composite cathode materials for lithium-ion batteries .
And from ICIS News (which required subscription…):
Brazil's Nova Petroquimica plans to produce glycerine-based polypropylene plastic within 2-3 years time. A US Congresswoman passed a bill seeking to close four chlor-alkali plants that still use older mercury cell technology. An a proposed US climate change bill pending in Congress could negatively impact the US economy, according to the National Association of Manufacturers (this particular article is free!).

Last night at the BMO Harris Bradley Center the Admirals tamed the Bulldogs of Hamilton Ontario in their only meeting of the AHL Season 4-2.
There was scoring through out the three periods which is always fun for the fans. Hamilton struck first when defenseman Greg Pateryn fired a shot that beat Admirals goalie Mazanec on his glove side. Just five short minutes later Admiral Center Mark Van Guilder lit his 9th red light of the season when he put his own rebounded shot past Bulldogs goalie Rober Mayer.
The second period was pretty much all Admirals, when Center Austin Watson lit the lamp, and put Milwaukee up 2-1.
The third period started with the Admirals up... until a little over 4 minutes into the final period Hamilton scored, tying the game at 2. Thats where the score stood until Milwaukee defenseman Roussel scored his first goal of the season to give the Admirals the lead for good (3-2). Rookie sensation, and soon to be Admirals AHL All-Star representative, put the icing on the cake by slapping an empty netter with :13 seconds left, from 3/4th the length of the ice.
The Admirals improve to 22-13-6-4 on the season and host Utica Friday night puck drops 7pm.

Prince Harry Causes GrId-lock at Governors Island Dock
(Andrea Bernstein, Transportation Nation) Governors Island lies in New York harbor a short ferry ride from Brooklyn and Manhattan, within spitting distance of the Statue of Liberty. It's one of the jewels in the crown of Mayor Michael Bloomberg's New York, a shared public space accessible only by (free) boat, one you can get around only on foot, bike, or tram. A space filled with public art, free hammocks, and award-winning street vendor food.
But yesterday, thanks to the Prince of England, that vision of a plebian park paradise collided with, well, royalty.
Governors Island has become host to a once-a-year polo match, which attracts nearly 11,000 specators, most of whom watch for free. There were about 1500 ticket holders to watch Prince Harry -- yes, the Prince Harry, Diana's son, one of the players.
But at the end of the day thousand of Brooklynites waited over an hour in the broiling heat for a three-minute boat ride while Prince Harry, polo players and attendees dressed to the nines, many of them clutching magnums of Veuve Cliquot, made their way onto a private boat. One of them was lamenting Prince Harry's team's loss, because, the man said, he had lineage to Harry.
I was one of the waiting hordes, having gone to Governors Island to spend the day with my family and friends. And for the most part it was lovely. Mini-golf in a sculpture garden, leafy boulevards, child-friendly pathways. There were even points on the 96 degree day when it felt cool, sitting on the southern tip in the shade, watching sailboats bob in front of the Statue of Libertay, as a cool breeze pulled through the harbor.
But then there was the line.
Shortly before 5 pm, eight of us , including four children, arrived on line to go back to Brooklyn. Right about that time, it seemed, all boat traffic was frozen, so Prince Harry and his entourage could travel safely back to Manhattan. This is standard operating procedure with the U.S. Secret Service, so no surprises there.
But loud grumbling started when large numbers of ticket-carrying polo match attendees walked right onto a private boat to Manhattan, while Brooklynites slowly inched forward in the broiling heat. At one point, Governor's Island workers handed out free bottled "Earth" water, which is usually sold to benefit for the U.N. High Commission on Refugees. A little after six, finally, we boarded a boat to Brooklyn.
I spoke by phone today Leslie Koch, President of the Governor's Island Preservation and Education Corporation (GIPEC), who explained that the private boat was paid for by the organizers of the polo match, and used a boat slip that was usually not used. She said on most days, there's only one Brooklyn ferry, and that yesterday, there were three. And that soon after we got off the Island, they put in a larger boat, for Brooklyn, precisely because they don't want people to leave Governors Island with any bad memories.
She said changes will be made, that from now on, GIPAC will post information about end times for large events, like this weekend's Roseanne Cash concert, so anyone wanting the beat the rush can do so. And she promised more communication with waiting crowds, because, she said "people act differently when they have information."
For all of Governors Islands recent history as a park, Koch has encouraged visitors. The more there are, the stronger the constituency there is for this kind of public space. But there may be days when her tireless lobbying is too successful for the transportation network to handle.
Oh, by the way, Prince Harry fell off his horse.

I was wondering if there is some sort of adapter to plug the OEM microphone wiring into an aftermarket HU so I don't have an extra microphone? Also having a hard time selecting a HU for a reasonable price. I was shopping online putting together a build and have come out to less than 1k for everything that I'm wanting but then read about the speakers just needing a different HU so the speakers may be able to wait for a bit.

Detailed Description:
Diabetes mellitus (DM) is a serious debilitating and deadly disease causing significant mortality and morbidity globally. Diabetic macular oedema is the most common cause of visual loss in the working population.
In 1985, the Early Treatment Diabetic Retinopathy Study (ETDRS) demonstrated that focal (direct/grid) laser photocoagulation reduces moderate vision loss from diabetic macular oedema (DMO) by 50% or more. However, further studies have shown that photocoagulation can eventually result in complications leading to loss of central vision and decreased colour vision. Thus, many newer laser machines that claim to reduce the rate of complications have been developed over the years.
In this project, we plan to evaluate the usage of the micropulse 577 nm laser, which is a yellow light laser, and compare it to the conventional 532 nm green laser that is widely used. The 577 nm laser has a high affinity for oxyhemoglobin, a slightly lower affinity for melanin and almost no affinity for macular xanthophylls, as shown in the graph below.22,23,24,25 The yellow 577 nm light also scatters very little and does not cause photochemical reactions in the tissues.
The theoretical advantage of using the micropulse 577 nm yellow laser would be the reduced energy requirement to obtain the same results as with green 532 nm. This leads to less retinal toxicity and damage due to reduced absorption by the xanthophylls. Our aim in this project is to observe whether the theoretical advantage translates to a more effective treatment in reality.
|Ages Eligible for Study:
|18 Years and older (Adult, Senior)
|Sexes Eligible for Study:
|Accepts Healthy Volunteers:
Inclusion Criteria:
- Diabetes mellitus (type 1 or 2)
- Diabetic macular edema in study eye associated to diabetic retinopathy
- Diffuse macular edema defined as macular thickening determined by biomicroscopy, OCT and/or fluorescein angiography.
- Best corrected visual acuity between 34 (20/200) and 68 letters (20/50).
- Macular thickness greater than 300 mcm on OCT.
Exclusion Criteria:
- Significant renal disease, defined as a history of chronic renal failure requiring dialysis or kidney transplant.
- A condition that, in the opinion of the investigator, would preclude participation in the study (e.g., unstable medical status including blood pressure, cardiovascular disease, and glycemic control).
- Blood pressure > 180/110 (systolic above 180 OR diastolic above 110).
- Subject is expecting to move out of the area of the clinical center to an area not covered by another clinical center during the next 6 months.
The following exclusions apply to the study eye only (i.e., they may be present for the nonstudy eye):
- Macular edema is considered to be due to a cause other than diabetic macular edema.
- Presence of vitreomacular traction.
- Concurrent proliferative diabetic retinopathy.
- An ocular condition is present such that, in the opinion of the investigator, visual acuity loss would not improve from resolution of macular edema (e.g., foveal atrophy, pigment abnormalities, dense subfoveal hard exudates, significant macular ischemia, nonretinal condition).
- An ocular condition is present (other than diabetes) that, in the opinion of the investigator, might affect macular edema or alter visual acuity during the course of the study (e.g., vein occlusion, uveitis epiretinal membrane, or other ocular inflammatory disease, neovascular glaucoma, etc.).
- Substantial cataract that, in the opinion of the investigator, is likely to be decreasing visual acuity by 3 lines or more (i.e., cataract would be reducing acuity to 20/40 or worse if eye was otherwise normal).
- History of treatment for DME at any time in the past 4 months (such as focal/grid macular photocoagulation, intravitreal or peribulbar corticosteroids, anti-VEGF drugs, or any other treatment).
- History of panretinal (scatter) photocoagulation (PRP) prior to enrollment or anticipated to be performed within next 6 months.
- History of major ocular surgery (including vitrectomy, cataract extraction, scleral buckle, any intraocular surgery, etc.) within prior 12 months or anticipated within the next 6 months.
- History of YAG capsulotomy performed within 2 months prior to enrollment.

The AAH produces a number of publications.
Thinking About Art: A Thematic Guide to Art History
Thinking About Art: A Thematic Guide to Art History is the first A level Art History textbook to be produced specifically for teachers and students, as well as a wider audience. It's written by experienced teacher, and former member of the AAH schools group, Penny Huntsman.
Thinking About Art explores some of the most influential works of art and architecture in the world through specific themes, instead of chronology. The book is based on the current AQA A level syllabus, but is designed to appeal more broadly to those with a general interest in art, and those teaching or studying other A level subjects, such as Art, English or History, where aspects of art history are relevant.
It's over 300 pages long, includes over 200 colour illustrations and is accompanied by a companion website. It provides a wealth of formal and contextual analysis, including suggested exercises and further reading.
Bulletin is the AAH members' newsletter which is published three times a year. AAH members receive a copy of the newsletter. To find out more and look at the Bulletin online archive please click here.
Guidelines for how to propse, prepare and organise an exhibition
'Don't Ask for the Mona Lisa' booklet is a guide for how to put on an exhibition. It offers an introduction to key aspects of exhibition curation, from the early planning stages to the design and opening of the show. The booklet provides assistance to those organising both small-scale and large exhibitions, as well as offering guidance on working with paintings, sculptures, and contemporary installations. Available in hardcopy or pay-per-download PDF formats. For more information please click here.
When embarking on the competitive arts job market it pays to be well-informed. This book aims to guide you through the options available – whether you are a prospective undergraduate student of Art History wondering where the degree could take you, or a professional looking to develop your existing art history career or move into the field.
In this new edition we have grouped jobs by theme to show the range of careers available within certain sectors and how they interconnect. We have also included more potential careers, including less obvious roles such as advertising, heritage tourism and museum retail, and reflected the changing job market with an extended entry on freelance work. There are also new sections with practical information on marketing yourself, writing CVs and finding funding. The further information sections accompanying each entry have also been updated.
The Student Member's Group also organises and runs annual full-day 'Careers in Art History' events. Full details can be found on our website here.
Previous AAH publications include:
The Art Book
A quarterly news and reviews magazine, which ceased production at the end of 2010. Access to previous issues (since 1994) of the magazine will still be available online via Wiley.
Teaching Art & Design History: Working with Students with Disabilities (pdf)
A comprehensive 27-page booklet. It was produced in association with the Learning and Teaching Support Network in response to the Special Educational Needs and Disability Act 2001. Published: 2003
21st-Century Art History: Global Reception (pdf)
A leaflet that has been published in collaboration with the ADM-HEA. It considers how recent attempts to 'globalise' art history have impacted on research and on teaching and learning strategies. The leaflet follows a series of papers that were presented at the AAH annual conference, Conception: Reception held in Bristol in 2005 which, in part, were stimulated by the GLAADH project. Published: 2006

Its really funny that you all should mention that. I was actually planning a car meet with some friend of mine from another car club. We were gonna have it at my house May 1st. If you all are interested I can make another thread for it and we can set it up. Hopefully I will be able to get a couple of car clubs out for this. I was going to invite all of you, the Mercury Cougar car club, and the RSX car club.

I have heard the term fat and happy before and have even used it in a sentence; that baby is fat and happy, but I have never said this about myself. A few days ago I tried on a pair of shorts that I wore last year and noticed they were a bit snug (I did not have to lie on the bed to zip them up or anything but they were a tad tight). This prompted me to do something that I never do; I got on the scales and weighed myself. GASP!!!!! I have gained 6 pounds!!!!!!! (6 lbs. may not sound like a lot to some but for a borderline Ooompa Loompa (this means I am short) 6 lbs. is a lot). I thought to myself, how could this happen?? I had lunch with a close friend the next day and she said it makes sense you are "fat and happy". Happy, yes I am, but when did fat start going along with that? She asked me what has changed in the past months. Well, for starters I am not eating salad and cereal by myself for dinner at night, instead of going to the gym as often as I can I am making time for other things, and I am going out to dinner more. This isn't something that happened overnight. I am guessing it started a few months ago. I thought about all of the delicious food I ate when I was in Europe in April, the cook outs for Memorial Day, July 4th, celebrating friend's birthdays and all the food I eat with my sweet Michael. My eating habits, especially since Angel is gone, consist of delicious bacon, egg and cheese (cheese that I got in Amsterdam so you know it is fatty) on a toasted English muffin for breakfast, incredible oven toasted chicken pesto sandwiches, chunky guacamole and chips for snacks and blackened salmon over penne pasta in an alfredo sauce for dinner. Okay this is not every day, but I am not used to eating like this. Bottom line my man can COOK y'all! (He can also dance.) At this point I guess it is true, I am fat and happy. However, I am going to work on being, happy and fit.
I have 4 more weeks until Angel gets home and I am going to start working on losing the 6 lbs. I have found. I am revisiting an old love of mine, tennis and am playing as often as I can. Michael and I are doing active things together and making healthy food choices. Whether I am fat and happy I am just happy I am happy and am with someone that makes me so!

Al Qaeda leader killed in Waziristan drone strike
Al Qaeda leader killed in Waziristan drone strike
KABUL (PAN): An important Al Qaeda leader was killed in a recent US drone attack in Pakistan's troubled tribal region of North Waziristan, an official said on Saturday.
The August 1 missile attack near Qutub Khel village, five kilometres east of Miranshah, killed four suspected militants. The CIA-operated drone fired two missiles at a vehicle, carrying the militants.
An intelligence source, who did not want to be named, that Al Qaeda's logistic affairs head was among the dead. Abdul Khaliq, better known as Mohammad, was a Saudi citizen who also looked after the network's financial affairs in Waziristan.

Is a Corvair pitman arm the only pitman arm that fits Corvair box?
Hello. I just joined up to HotRodders.com. This is a great site and I have been learning stuff from you guys for years.
We are building a little hot rod pickup with a suicide front end. It has a reversed Corvair steering box that sits on top of the frame. I would like the pickup to steer sharper when turning left without the tire hitting the drag link. What we have is a Speedway pitman arm that has the offset. I'd like to have a straight pitman arm to move the drag link toward the frame. This would give us clearance from the tire and also make the hairpin more visible from the side. I'll make the steering arm match so that the drag link is parallel with the hairpins.
I would like to find a forged Corvair pitman arm. I assume that the arm will have the offset like the Speedway arm. Will I be able to heat and straighten it and then slow cool it or would it be better to cut my own arm out of steel and weld the Corvair splined end into a ring cut in the new arm?
My other question is are there other pitman arms that have the same splined end as the Corvair arm?
Thanks for any input
pitman arm.......
Hi,i dont know if other arms will fit the corvair box,take your arm to a Pick a part, look at gm arms.take your tools,you will have to pull the arm to check it. BUT,you can bend or straighten the arm,without a problem,heat it cherry red,bend it the way you need,let it cool SLOWLY,i always take the cherry red arm,and bury it in a pile of sand,to slowly cool it.
If you have a bolt on steering arm [at the spindle] ,get or make a longer one, that will give you more wheel clearance & slow down your steering , win/win ..
Thanks for the replies. We do have a new Speedway pitman arm which is supposed to be a forged one, I guess. It has a grainy appearance which looks like cast to me. I figured an original would be safest.
We are using a 59 Ford front end. It has the original steering arm that curves up and around the front of the axle from the bottom of the spindle. I know this isn't the common setup, but I think I can make it look presentable. It can't look any less clean than having the tie rod in front of the axle, which I don't. The steering arm isn't quite in the right position and I figured I will have to heat it and position it to match the pitman arm.
Is it true that the pitman arm and steering arm have to be the same length? I assume there is some leeway with that. I want this pickup to drive nice. I don't want to have problems to straighten out later.
I am not positive about this, but it seems one of the 64-65 Chevys had a pittman arm that would spline to the Corvair box. Check with The Late Great Chevy guys: they may be able to help.
No, they don't have to be the same length, just changes the turning radius.
Thanks for the help. Another question is whether there is another steering box that fits in a similar position and works as well as the (Flaming River) reversed Corvair box? Does the F1 box do that? We are trying to go for a little bit of a 60's look with the pickup but aren't super rigid in making everything period on it. If there is a good, later model junkyard choice, I might give it a try. I'm a Ford guy, so if I could find a good alternative to the Chevy stuff, it would be great.

UTEP Postgame Quotes
March 24, 2008
Recap | Box Score | Notes | UTEP Miners Travel to California for NCAA Tournament | UTEP Miners prepare for Western Kentucky | UTEP vs Western Kentucky. Photos by Ivan Pierre Aguirre | AP Photos | Gallery (Brian Kanof)
Coach Keitha Adams:
(Opening statement) "We are enjoying our time in California. I cannot say enough how proud I am of our team I thought we came out and just played really well for 40 minutes. Was a little concerned how we played early in the game. We had not played a ball game in 2 weeks. One thing I know about these ladies is that they were very motivated and fired up. I thought we came out and played very aggressive and had a tremendous team effort."
(Dealing with Stanford's crowd on Monday) "We were in settings similar to this. This young group is ready to compete no matter where or when. We got a great point guard in Jareica and she will call out the plays and her teammates will echo her. We have worked through that. We have prepared for that. We know it will be a very loud, enthusiastic crowd. We will be fine."
(on the run they made in the end of the first half) "One thing about our team is when we get our running game going we can be pretty explosive. We got that going then we hit some threes. When you put that combination of running it and taking it to the basket and getting fast breaks, and then dropping the three point shot. Our offense was running on all cylinders. We got some great momentum and I thought we did a great job in the second half in keeping that focus and gradually increasing it."
(on playing Stanford) "The one thing we have done all year is that we have focused on who we were playing. We have totally prepared for Western Kentucky. In tournament time that is how it is, you have to completely focus on whom you are playing. There's no question they are a tremendous team. We will watch film and get a game plan and take on a very good team in Stanford."
(on first NCAA appearance) "Throughout the year people have wondered how our team was going to handle getting in the top 25 for the first time. We had some big wins and people were wondering when we were going to stub our toe. This group is very confident and they have experience in big tournaments. They have great focus and what it does for our program is that it legitimizes that we are a top 25 team. We held that ranking for 4 to 5 weeks and it showed that we truly deserved that. I thought we played very well together and very unselfishly."
Natasha Lacy (On next game against Stanford):"We are excited to play again. We were in the locker room and the seniors were saying how they did not want this to be their last game. We will do our scouting and our homework on Stanford. We watched them play a little bit and they have a great guard in Candice Wiggins and they have Pederson down in the post. We will see how it goes on Monday."

Phoenix Student-Athletes are Well-Represented on Graduation Weekend
GREEN BAY, Wis. (GreenBayPhoenix.com) - Highlighted by over 40 student-athletes walking across the stage at commencement ceremonies Saturday at the Kress Center, Green Bay Athletics was well-represented this weekend during UW-Green Bay graduation events. At Saturday's commencement, Kayla Tetschlag (Sheboygan, Wis.) shared her thoughts on her time in college as the class speaker.
Tetschlag, a four-year standout on the Green Bay women's basketball team, was selected by the Office of the Provost for her distinguished honor. A business administration major with minors in Spanish and international business, Tetschlag graduated magna cum laude. She finished her career on the women's basketball team this past March by leading the squad to the Sweet 16 of the NCAA Tournament after being named the co-Horizon League Player of the Year.
Numerous student-athletes were also honored on Friday night at the University Leadership Awards Program. Jeff Cook (Rhinelander, Wis.), a member of the Green Bay Nordic ski team, was awarded the Outstanding Student Award by the UW-Green Bay Alumni Association. Cook graduated Saturday summa cum laude after completing majors in environmental policy and planning, political science and public administration.
Of the 30 students awarded the Chancellor's Leadership Medallion, seven were connected to Green Bay Athletics. The receipients included Tetschlag and Celeste Hoewisch (Hortonville, Wis.) of the women's basketball team, Regina Elmer (Stillwater, Minn.) of the women's Nordic ski team, Travis Mathers (Baraboo, Wis.) and Allison Thut (Green Bay, Wis.) of the swimming and diving teams, Leah Korger, previously of the softball team, and Steven Teclaw, who served as a volunteer assistant coach on the men's Nordic ski team. The medallions acknowledge both academic excellence and leadership demonstrated throughout the students' careers on campus.
University Leadership Awards were also handed out on Friday, with seven student-athletes and a team manager receiving the honor given to those who contributed to the growth and development of a student organization and/or exhibited a commitment to community service. Honorees included: Josh Bautch (Wausau, Wis.) of men's soccer, Dustin Dietrich (Kiel, Wis.) of men's swimming and diving, Carolyn Freeman (Ely, Minn.) and Lindsey Marshall (Shoreview, Minn.) of women's Nordic Ski, Karli Koralewski (Muskego, Wis.) and Whitney Schott (Roscoe, Ill.), Hannah Quilling (Eau Claire, Wis.) of women's basketball and women's basketball manager Nellie Schafer.

Her pitchy performance of "Tik Tok" in particular seemed to attract the ire of SNL audiences.
Flo was not just mediocre: she was catastrophically tragic, tone-deaf, screechy and, as Randy Jackson would say, "pitchy, dawg!"
The songs, which have creaky titles like "All that Razz" and "Hooray for What's-not-good," are belted out with pitchy gusto.
Ferrier saw an object like a mass of seaweed, but the night was so pitchy that no outline could be made out.
In that pitchy blackness he had only his fingers to guide him.
It was pitchy dark when we awoke, but the noise from among the Indian lodges was louder than ever.
The insides of the whale were all wet, and it was all pitchy dark in there.
Thanks to the pitchy darkness of that wintry night, Huzaifah glided among the enemies' tents.
I say, though, what an experience this is, here in the pitchy darkness.
We sprang into the shrouds, and climbed up, up, up into the pitchy darkness.

NY Fashion Week produces spring clothes styled to move
By Ellen Wulfhorst
NEW YORK (Reuters) - The hottest trend emerging from New York Fashion Week hasn't been bold neon colors or cutting-edge silhouettes but simply practical clothes designed to sell.
Runways were filled with useful separates, uncomplicated sheath dresses and comfortable trousers aimed to appeal to consumers, observers said at New York Fashion Week for Spring 2013, which wrapped up on Thursday.
Absent was a stand-out, must-have look, such as monochrome outfits, one-shoulder dresses or asymmetrical hem lines that emerged from fashion designers in prior years, said experts.
"People aren't looking to be peacocks this season," said Robert Burke, a retail consultant. "Anything too loud and specific is not going to feel right."
Consumers coping with a weak economic recovery and a wobbly jobs market are more likely to choose subdued and practical styles, he said.
So spring promises pretty floral print blouses, slouchy shorts and fluid trousers topped with motorcycle or bomber jackets in soft light leather.
"There's an awful lot of practicality in this season's collections," said Candace Corlett, president of WSL Strategic Retail. "There's a lot of pieces you could put together and mix and match."
Fashion forecaster David Wolfe, creative director at The Doneger Group, called the spring collections "one of the most attractive, one of the most commercial" seasons he has seen in a decade, marred by nothing outlandish or difficult to sell. Continued...

You know Netflix has it hard, right? Maybe you do, but you don't know how hard it is to keep you entertained. Not until you know about Chaos Kong.
You have read about how hard Netflix must fight to hold onto the rights to stream movies and television shows, while Hollywood would rather lease them out to hotels and on-demand cable streams and other lucrative but dead-end venues. You know about their misstep with trying to break off DVDs-by-mail into a separate company. And, yeah, you can guess that they have to have some pretty, pretttttty smart network engineers working on those servers.
But read Bloomberg Businessweek's truly enthralling piece on how Netflix runs, and you will really know what it's like to be the Big Red Movie Firm. Since you don't have time to read those 3,700 words right now, I will provide some highlights.
The best description of bandwidth I have ever read
The first paragraph of Bloomberg's piece is just great.
On a normal weeknight, Netflix (NFLX) accounts for almost a third of all Internet traffic entering North American homes. That's more than YouTube, Hulu, Amazon.com (AMZN), HBO Go, iTunes, and BitTorrent combined. Traffic to Netflix usually peaks at around 10 p.m. in each time zone, at which point a chart of Internet consumption looks like a python that swallowed a cow. By midnight Pacific time, streaming volume falls off dramatically.
How your video sausage gets made
More than 1,000 types of devices can stream Netflix videos. To keep Netflix feeling like magic, that means Netflix must customize video streams as much as possible for each kind of device. You click "Play," and Netflix figures out, in less time than it takes me to type this next comma, what kind of device you're using, which of its server spaces is closest to you, and what kind of bandwidth it can expect from the connection. And then it sends you one of more than 100 customized versions of the content you asked for.
Oh, and if you and a bunch of your buddies in the same town all start watching Netflix's new Hemlock Grove, Netflix will move those hundreds of versions over to flash (solid-state) memory on the server closest to you, just so you get that slightly faster experience. Seriously.
They are literally inventing entire new fields of computer science to serve your movies
Netflix had to approach Amazon and its Web Services arm cautiously when it made its move into the cloud—it was going to be a big project, and Amazon had its own digital video services to sell. But Amazon agreed, and ever since, Netflix has been Amazon's biggest customer, collaborator, and innovator.
"We're using Amazon more efficiently than the retail arm of Amazon is," says Adrian Cockcroft, Netflix's cloud architect. "We're pretty sure about that."
What kind of efficiency and tools, you ask?
Netflix has become best known for its so-called Simian Army, a facetiously named set of applications that test the resilience of its systems. Chaos Monkey, for instance, simulates small outages by randomly turning services off, while Chaos Kong takes down an entire data center.
And it's not just web services that benefit.
Companies such as EBay (EBAY) and Intel (INTC) have started using (Netflix's) products with their own cloud computing systems, as did the Obama campaign during the last election. Scott VanDenPlas, who managed much of the (Obama) campaign's infrastructure, points to a Netflix software tool called Asgard. It's a system management application that finds groups of servers and outfits them with all the software needed to do a specific job, performing work in seconds that would require a programmer hours or days.
Netflix's CEO will guinea pig viewing devices for you
No viewing experience is too niche for even the highest-level Netflix employee to care about. Witness CEO Reed Hasting's toolkit:
For one month, (Hastings will) only use products made by Apple (AAPL), and the next he's on to phones, tablets, and laptops running Windows. May is Google month, and Hastings has one of the company's touchscreen Chromebook Pixel laptops. "I just keep it rotating," he says.
Again: read the whole thing, when you get a chance. In the meantime, think about how all this experimentation and infrastructure building and traffic routing and server optimization was not built by government think tanks or a Bell-Labs-like group, but by a company that wants to serve you Adventure Time as quickly as possible.

"Green Acres is the place to be. Farm living is the life for me. Land spreading out so far and wide - keep Manhattan, just give me that countryside!"
Lyrics used in the theme song for the 1960s television show Green Acres could also apply to a special Lebanon lady, Delaine Freeman Smith.
Like a modern day "Mrs. Douglas," Smith is early to rise. A typical day in her life is a mix of tending to her slew of farm animals, lunching with her father, marketing for their business Freeman Foals, checking on her grown children and grandchildren - and somehow finding time to throw on her namesake piece of Music City Bling "Delaine's Kiss of Fire," designed by close friend and fellow horse enthusiast Tina Brady, and work the social circuit.
Smith was born in Camp Lejune, North Carolina to parents John and Betty Bradford Freeman while he was stationed there as a marine. The family returned to her father's native Wilson County when Smith was just 2-years-old.
"I went to school at Friendship Christian, where I was in the second graduating class in 1978. I was in the top 12 of my class," she said, before joking. "Not really impressive. There were only 12 of us and I was probably number 12. Friendship was very small back then."
Smith attended Middle Tennessee State University and Cumberland University, but her heart always belonged in the world of horses. Her mother was the breeder of World Grand Champion Tennessee Walking Horse "Generator's Santana."
"It is in my blood," she said. "My mother established Freeman Foals in 1976. Her father raised horses too and I got my first pony when I was 3."
Smith said that her mother and father were a team in the venture - and that she stepped up to help when her mom passed away in 2007. "My mother called him CEO of manure management because he cleans the stalls and does the feeding and fence maintenance. Now I take care of the breeding and the marketing."
She is normally a regular at shows such as the Tennessee Walking Horse National Celebration coming up in Shelbyville, Tennessee this August; however, doesn't plan to participate this year because she has been so busy supporting her husband, Chancellor C.K. Smith.
"He is like trying to follow the Energizer Bunny. I literally cannot keep up with him and all the places he goes before court and after court to meet folks and shake hands," she said. "On days that we are invited to several different things at the same time, I go to one event and he will go to another ... I am having a lot of fun meeting all the people in the district."
She and C.K. have been married for the past 11 years and together for a total of 13. Their family includes her children, Justin Davis, Winston (Caroline) Davis and McClain (Andy) Cannon and his children, C.K. Smith, Jr., Justin Smith and Courtney Smith - and grandchildren, Carter Cannon and Anna Grace Davis.
"Our first date was the Senior Citizens Center for their annual Valentine's Day Dinner. We have attended every year since," Smith shared.
However, Smith's most romantic Valentine's Day was when her husband gave her four goats. "It was the most romantic gift I've ever gotten," she said, adding that their farm animals also include dogs, chickens and pigs.
"The pigs my children started raising have become my new entertainment. They are hilarious and so smart. This spring I took a piglet, put a pearl bracelet on its neck and went to WANT 98.9FM to surprise the Private Lives of Nashville Wives cast members who were there being interviewed by MJ Lucas," she said. "You just never know what animal adventure I am going to be doing from day to day."
Smith named many women who she admires, such as Carol Locke, Cindy Reavis, Hattie Bryant, Faye Agee, Donna Evins, Beth Putman, Helene Cash, Melinda Ledford, Kayla Freeman, Pamela Garrett and Denise Moore - but said that her mother, Betty, and daughter, McClain, are the ladies who have influenced her the most.
"The main things I've learned as I have gotten older is to just be myself no matter what others may think. In fact, my hair is gray today because I finally quit listening to everyone telling me I had to keep coloring it. I've learned to be comfortable with what God gave me - wrinkles, gray hairs and all."

ARAF, Davi; MOURA, Eurípedes da Mota; RODRIGUES, Consuelo Junqueira and FIGUEIREDO, Luiz Arthur de Faria. Homologous scleral and dura mater grafts in rabbit eyesa comparative histopathological analysis. Arq. Bras. Oftalmol. [online]. 2007, vol.70, n.6, pp.981-987. ISSN 0004-2749. http://dx.doi.org/10.1590/S0004-27492007000600018.
PURPOSE: To evaluate tissue reaction to implantation of homologous scleral and dura mater grafts. METHODS: Experimental surgeries were performed on 41 albine New Zealand rabbits; two rabbits were selected at random to be graft donors. Thirty rabbits were divided into two groups: group D and group E, receiving grafts of homologous tissues. The remaining nine animals comprised the control group (DE) and were submitted to surgery but with no graft. The eyes were enucleated and samples collected two, six and 12 weeks after the experiment, comprising subgroups I, II and III. RESULTS: A qualitative histopathological analysis was performed together with a comparative semi-quantitative study on vascularization and inflammatory infiltrate in the transplanted sclera and dura mater. Histomorphometry was conducted based on measurements of the grafts with an image analyzing system. There was no statistically significant difference when comparing vascularization, inflammatory infiltrate and measurements between subgroup I in relation to sclera and dura mater, nor in subgroup II. Subgroup III was not compared, since only fragments of dura mater grafts were considered. CONCLUSIONS: The dura mater graft presented intense absorption and progressive replacement of loose connective tissue. And the scleral graft showed discreet absorption in the periphery with formation of a more evident fibrous membrane, integrating the graft into the host sclera.

Oceanis 413 carbon fiber rudder stock"clunk"..
I buyed my Oceanis 413 from the Moorings Charter Co. in Tortola, BVI. When the surveyor check the boat he recommend fixing the rudder stock bearings.. This particular model has the carbon fiber stock. Now, two years and several months latter I'm listening to some sound, particularly when we are with a following sea, similar to the one I felt when surveying the boat.
I took the cockpit floor panel to check the quadrant while sailing and noticed that the quadrant is connected to the stock with a throughout a bolt (about 3/8 of an inch) and at the same time the quadrant hole is square that fit into the square topside of the rudder stock. Anyway, that connection of the quadrant with the stock has a movement that correspond with the sound. Now, does anyone can tell me that if I change the quadrant to eliminate the"play" will be the culprit. or the movement is an indication of something worst in the bearing of the rudder stock? Please any comment or recommendation will be super appreciated.

Rudder post slop & "thunking"
I have a tiller steered ''78 Catalina 30 that developed the same symptoms. I contacted Catalina and they responded with a data sheet showing how to make a repair.
There are no bearings; just a fiberglass tube glassed to the hull into which the rudder stock fits. Since the rudder is buoyant, there is no vertical load. After a number of years, the lateral and vertical motion of the rudder caused wear on the inside of the fiberglass tube.
The recommended "fix" was to remove the rudder head fitting and drop the rudder (had to dig a shallow hole), clean the rudder stock and coat it well with "mold release" wax (available at West Marine), clean out the "tube" using acetone with the aid of rags and a broomstick, re-install the rudder in the tube and replace the rudder head fitting to hold the rudder in place, use modeling clay to seal the lower end of the rudder stock and tube, and pour resin (mixed with hardener) into the space around the top end to fill the gap.
Keep a watch on the leftover resin. As soon as it "sets", move the rudder back and forth to ensure that a hard and fast seal doesn''t develop. The wax should prevent that, but I think it''s best to play it safe.
Believe me, it took a while for me to get up the guts to do it but it worked out just fine and the rudder action is the best it has ever been.
Catalina also warns against using any kind of lubricant after the job is completed. They say that lubricants attract and hold foreign material and in general gum up the works.
That''s how it works on a Catalina 30. I''m not familiar with the S2.
Rudder post slop & "thunking"
You may still be able to get some factory help. Start with the info at the following website: http://www.homestead.com/fleet7/files/S2info.pdf
If your rudder bearing is like many it is just fiberglass built up inside the tube. I think the West Systems manuals have a section on repairing this. But I agree, I would wait until the end of the season.
Rudder post slop & "thunking"
If you were to wiggle the rudders of the boats in your yard this fall, my guess is that 9 out of 10 are loose and have excess play. Some boat manufacturer had the foresight to incorporate a bushing system into their design to correct the situation you''ve described when the rudder tube assembly has too much play. In the fall at haul out inspect your boat to determine if such a bushing system was originally installed. I don''t know where you''ll get them as the sailboat portion of the S2s business is no longer in production although the company still makes stinkpots.
Finding bushings for your boat may be more difficult than finding Weapons of Mass Destruction in Iraq. That said, Harken does offer a limited number.
There is a stuffing box on some inboard rudder designs, not all. If one does exist on your boat, tightening it will not make much difference.
I doubt if enough force during normal sailing could be generated to crack the rudder tube, it''s probably more annoying than structurally dangerous.
I replaced both upper and lower bushings in my boat a few years ago; it is the 1 out of 10 that is nice and tight :-) I was able to get the bushings from the boat manufacturer.
Rudder post slop & "thunking"
I sail an S2 7.3 which has an inboard spade rudder. I have some play (maybe ~1/4") in my rudder post; it wiggles a bit fore & aft, port & starboard. This causes a "thunking" noise coming from the hull when the rudder post moves around with the play. When I look over the transom, I can see the top, aft corner of the rudder pivot up and down a bit. At best, this thunking noise is annoying. But I''m concerned that the integrity of the rudder post tube (which spans/connects the horizontal cockpit coaming through the aft compartment to the hull) might be compromised over time. If the tube that houses the rudder post were to crack or break near the waterline, water would enter the aft compartment in a following sea.
Here''s my question, since I really have no idea how inbiard rudders are installed. Is there a "packing gland" of some sort where the rudder post exits the hull that can be tightened to reduce the slop? Or is this problem likely to be caused by something else? Got a fix for it? Thanks in advance!

Modern Earth is nothing like it was in its early days. Our planet was formed some 4.56 billion years ago when a giant stellar cloud collapsed on itself due its massive size and gravitational force. The explosion also generated the sun and many other planetary bodies, including those that would eventually become the planets of the Solar system. This early Earth was a planet of molten rock surrounded by a layer of hydrogen and helium gases. These gases were likely blown away by the intense solar wind, leaving the planet without a protective atmosphere and making it more vulnerable to bombardment by asteroids and meteorites. At this time, it had a moon called Theia, which some theories believed collided with the Earth with such force that it tilted the planet and made the moon. The impact is also believed to have stimulated the circulation of magma, intensifying volcanic activity in what was already a very inhospitable planet. Not surprisingly, this early era in Earth's history is called the Hadean (Hell-like) eon. These were indeed hellish conditions that prevented the emergence of life. Yet the Earth began to cool down and, at some point, a thin, but stable continental crust was formed. These 'milder' conditions also promoted the condensation of water released through the outgassing of volcanoes. And so a primitive ocean was formed. The volcanic outgassing also released gases such as ammonia, carbon dioxide, and methane and created a primitive atmosphere that helped protect the planet from meteorite bombardment and radiation. It may have been a rocky beginning, but once the planet cooled down enough to form continents and oceans, it was ready to harbor life.

Time to trade for Dion Lewis
Tyler Loechner presents his Week 7 trade value chart and identifies some key trade targets. Now is the time to buy Calvin Johnson and Dion Lewis.
Time to trade for Dion Lewis
Welcome to the Week 7 edition of the 2015 fantasy football trade value chart, which can help you strike a trade if you're looking to improve your team and maximize value. Skip to the bottom if you just want to browse the chart, but keep reading if you want help making sense of it all.
We also have an updated Fantasy 124, the fantasy football stock market index showing the value of the (roughly) 124 most valuable fantasy football players on a weekly basis. The index — and the trade value charts — rely on PFF Fantasy's Rest-of-Season projections from Mike Clay. The dollar amounts assume a 12-team league with a $200 cap and a starting lineup of 1 QB, 2 RB, 3 WR, 1 TE, and 1 Flex. There are two charts — one for standard leagues and one for points-per-reception (PPR) leagues.
The purpose of the Fantasy 124 is to show risers and fallers at a macro-level. As you can see below, the value of wideouts and tight ends rose, but the value of running backs and quarterbacks dropped — with quarterbacks falling the furthest.

Now you're funneled into one of a few large and expensive option packages to get what you want.
If I had to replace the car tomorrow for some ungodly reason the only Focus I can see myself going with is the ST, but it would probably have to be the base ST to avoid MFT and to avoid spending $4000 for options I don't really need or want. But that would also mean giving up the heated seats and the dual zone climate control.
My car is very rare for the fact that it was a one year only model, a one year only combination of features, and a one year only color. None of which could be replaced in 2013.
To equip the car the same way would cost thousands of additional dollars due to the other equipment that would be manditory to match or exceed this level of equipment.
This has become a trend in the automotive industry and Ford is certainly not exempting themselves from it. All the manufacturers bundle options/packages now. To quote the Vonage commercial, "We ALLLLLLL Bundle." I agree with the premise that it's harder to get exactly what you want as if you were custom ordering and now you're required to accept options that you may not necessarily want in order to get others. For the sake of efficiency and obviously profit, I see this trend continuing.
Short of higher end luxury cars, there seems to be very few makes that offer the choices that you desire. In the meantime, if you want those heated leather seats, then you better be prepared to pay for the sunroof that comes along with it, etc...

I just really want to make a website, just for fun. So bored this weekend…. How do i start? Where do i buy my domain at if i wanted to buy a template from here? thanks to much!
Hi Swagtonio, welcome to ThemeForest.
You need 3 essential things:
- a domain (you can register one when you purchase a hosting plan)
- a host (maybe from justHost, blueHost, dreamHost or mediatemple…)
- a website (you can buy a HTML/CSS template or a CMS powered theme/template)
To purchase anything from Envato, you will need an account (which you already have) and a PayPal account or credit card (view payment options).
Also, make sure you read about the licenses available here.
Good luck!
thanks for the reply!!! can i register a host with godaddy.com? or where should i buy my domain?
what does a host do???
i want to buy a template and i know which one too! i just need to do step 1 and 2 i think lol @cosmincotor
You can buy your domain and host from Godaddy or someone like them.
Your domain is the address people visit to see your site and the "host" is where the files that make the website are stored
ok so say if i were to buy a templateee how would i apply it??? what do i do to make it different? thanksss
It depends on what type of file e.g for HTML site templates you just need an HTML editor which can be as simple as notepad or various free downloadable ones.
For Wordpress you can modify most of it in the built in admin as with Joomla or a different CMS and so on.
Of course it depends how different you want to make it! Some form of image editor like Photoshop is helpful too.
Once you but one you edit it and upload it to your hosting.

You can buy your domain and host from Godaddy or someone like them.
Your domain is the address people visit to see your site and the "host" is where the files that make the website are stored

It's a server issue with your hosting
