Vehicle Overview from Kelley Blue Book
KBB.com 2001 Mazda MPV Overview
Mazda's MPV is almost a great minivan. Almost in the sense that it does not score a perfect 10 on the Minivan Scale of Greatness test. But it comes close. The weak link on the MPV is the engine. It just needs more power. Mazda has signaled that they intend to remedy the problem in the not-too-distant future, but for now, the engine/drivetrain remains the only average part of an otherwise excellent vehicle.
It's really too bad because everything else about the MPV is just right. The MPV is a true minivannot too big and not too small, it handles very well and is easy to maneuver and park. If it's just you, your mate, two kids and your stuff, the MPV will work out perfectly. Like the larger Odyssey, the MPV features a clever folding hide-a-way third seat, capable of expanding the people-hauling quota to seven. The center-row captain's chairs can slide together creating a large opening for rear-seat passengers to enter and exit. The MPV also offers an optional entertainment system and one feature no other minivan can lay claim to: A fully operational roll-down window on both sliding side doors. This feature alone is worth the price of the MPV for anyone whose kids get car sick or whose pooches need a portal from which to stick their noses.
The styling of the MPV is progressive and should stand the test of time well. The dash is handsomely laid out, with nice big knobs and buttons that make it easy to identify their functions. Seats are comfortable but may be a bit firm for some tastes. All in all, the MPV is a very good substitute for the traditional family sedan.

We are on our fourth and final week of this month's blog series. My hope in creating this series was to discuss tips for dressing each body type to enhance one's sense of self-expression and confidence. The most important lesson is to value and respect your body type, keeping in mind that each and every person has a unique and beautiful figure. We have celebrated the rectangle, pear, apple, and strawberry silhouettes. Last, but definitely not least, is the hourglass silhouette.
The fourth and final week features the hourglass silhouette. This silhouette can be described best as a proportional figure that has an equal balance between the top half and bottom half of the figure, with the waist being the smallest measurement of bust, waist, and hips.
Here are tips to follow when dressing for this body type:
1. Showcase your shape with a fitted dress for a night out.
2. Accentuate your goreous hip curves even more with a flared skirt.
3. Dress for the skinny jean trend to emphasize the hourglass.
4. Play with the positioning of a belt to elongate your hourglass figure in the upper torso or lower torso, depening on belt placement.
5. Many aspire to have this figure, so take good care of it and keep it styled sharp!

I mentioned about the suspension recall to help with tyre wear , and he said there wasn't one for my vehicle. i did pursue the issue with him and he said if there was one it would show up on there computer. (whether he was talking about my particular vehicle with the chassis number quoted or q7s in general I don't) So all in all not much help really .

Bones Brigade
Sundance Review: Bones Brigade: An Autobiography
11:00 AM on 01.24.2012 // Allistair Pinsof@DtoidAllistair
[From Jan. 19 to 29, Flixist will be bringing you live coverage, from Park City, Utah, of Sundance Film Festival 2012. Keep an eye out for news, features, videos, and reviews of some of the most anticipated films to hit the festival circuit in 2012.]
Bones Brigade is the film I wanted Dogtown and Z-Boys to be. I wanted to hear about the origin of the ollie, the rise of Tony Hawk, and the commercialization of skateboarding. Yet, I feared director and pillar in the skateboarding community Stacy Peralta would appear in lethargic form, as he mined similar material again.
This couldn't be further from the truth. Bones Brigade is a masterful documentary that tells the story of a group of misfits who became the stars all future misfits would want to become.
Bones Brigade: An Autobiography
Director: Stacy Peralta
Rating: NR
Release Date: TBA
After forming the foundation of skateboarding in the '70s, Stacy Peralta wanted to create what he always wanted for himself during his prime: A team of like-minded skaters who would elevate each other's craft and form life-long friendships. Where skateboard manufacturers and investors built teams from established skaters, Peralta created a team out of young unknowns -- some of which were as young as ten years old. He taught them everything he knew and set them on a journey across the world. This group eventually became known as the Bones Brigade.
As the '80s progressed, the definition of skateboarding became broader and the sport became more accessible. No longer were skaters limited to skate parks -- parks that were torn down with alarming frequency in the early '80s -- now, skateboarding evolved on the streets of American suburbs. And, most every influential trick came from the Bones Brigade.
Peralta's film tells the story of the group's origin to where the members are now, leaving few gaps that need filling. As the sport became more open to new styles, new personalities attached to skateboarding. Every member of the Bones Brigade is a fascinating character; the same can be said of every talking head that helps tell the team's story.
Tony Hawk is the earnest geek who wants all the cool punks to like him; instead, every new influential trick he creates only make the naysayers angrier, going as far as spitting on his face at events. Rodney Mullen is the introverted genius who single-handedly reinvented the sport by creating the ground ollie. He is one of the most captivating interview subjects I've ever seen in a documentary. He speaks pure poetry with a grave intensity that had me hanging onto his every word. Lance Mountain is the group's clown, who unexpectedly became a celebrity overnight through the invention of skateboarding VHS tapes. The entire cast is fantastic, full of great lines, quirks, and stories.
Beyond these spirited interviews, the Bones Brigade's story is told through a wealth of archive footage cut together brilliantly with a killer soundtrack that perfectly captures the era and tone of each segment. 120 minutes fly by with ease. There is so much of this story to tell and it's all told so well. There are some heavy emotional moments that are properly setup and some pretty big laughs delivered.
Bones Brigade is the type of documentary I love watching. It takes you to another place and time, completely immersing you in the joy, drama, and adventure these guys went through. By the end of the film, I feel inspired and full of life in the way only a great documentary can. Bones Brigade was the team Peralta was destined to form, and this is the story he was born to tell.
Bones Brigade - Reviewed by Allistair Pinsof
Spectacular. An instant classic that will go down as one of the best films we've ever seen.

Watch David Bowie's New 'Lazarus' Video
Subscribe to Ultimate Classic Rock on
David Bowie has premiered the video for "Lazarus," the latest single from his new Blackstar album.
The video arrives a little less than a month after Bowie premiered the audio for the song, and comes on the heels of a short film built around the album's title track. The full-length Blackstar LP, Bowie's first collection of new original material since 2013's The Next Day, is scheduled to arrive tomorrow.
The "Lazarus" video further fleshes out the story begun in the "Blackstar" clip, in which Bowie plays a character described as a "doomed, blind prophet" who's been imprisoned and sentenced to death by crucifixion. As before, Bowie spends portions of the video blinded by gauze, with a pair of creepy-looking dots affixed on top where his eyes should be, although he's also seen writing something with a fountain pen and doing an interpretive dance in a leotard.
As he did with the "Blackstar" video, Bowie turned to director Jonathan Renck for "Lazarus," a collaboration Renck enthused about in the press release announcing the new clip. "One could only dream about collaborating with a mind like that; let alone twice," said Renck. "Intuitive, playful, mysterious and profound… I have no desire to do any more videos knowing the process never ever gets as formidable and fulfilling as this was. I've basically touched the sun."
As previously reported, "Lazarus" is also the title of Bowie's recent stage project, which stars Dexter lead Michael C. Hall in a new adaptation of Walter Tevis' The Man Who Fell to Earth. The play is currently showing at the New York Theater Workshop, with its run scheduled to close Jan. 20.

To the Editor:
There was a time when there was nowhere for members of the public to bring surplus puppies and kittens. As a result, litters were being dropped in rural areas "so someone would give them a good home," left in dumpsters like garbage, and even dropped into trash compactors to be crushed to death. The survivors were breeding. As a result, parts of the county were plagued with packs of feral dogs which preyed on livestock and had to be shot by farmers trying to protect their herds.
In addition, cases of animal cruelty and neglect used to be commonplace throughout Wilson County. Laws forbidding such activities were seldom, if ever, enforced by law enforcement officers.
The Humane Association of Wilson County (HAWC) dramatically changed all that. Once we had a shelter, there was no longer any excuse for dropping unwanted litters in the garbage – there was a place that would accept them, treat them with kindness, adopt them out to good homes if possible, and – sadly – humanely euthanize them if not – for there were always many more unwanted dogs and cats than there were good homes.
In addition, through many years of hard work, we won over the law enforcement personnel, not only convincing them that we were not the enemy, but persuading them to work with us in a mutually beneficial relationship.
The Humane Association developed a balanced approach which worked well for many years. Rather than concentrating all of our limited resources in one area, we were active in many aspects of animal welfare.
Not only did we run the shelter and the adoption program, but we conducted animal cruelty investigations, provided animal-related programs for the schools, donated educational videos to the public libraries, and even assisted low-income people who needed to have their pets neutered at private veterinarians.
The present management of what used to be our Humane Association has changed all that. Now, they think it is appropriate to assume an arrogant, morally superior attitude with their so-called "no-kill" shelter – which might more accurately be called a "let somebody else do your dirty work" shelter.
There will always be more dogs and cats than there are good homes for dogs and cats. We can lessen the severity of the problem, but it is beyond human capability to eliminate it completely. Thus, there will always be a need for a place which will accept unwanted animals, find homes for as many of them as possible, and euthanize the rest. No sane person wants things to be this way, but we must recognize reality. The biology of dogs and cats is such that they reproduce easily and quickly. Thus, small numbers of fertile adults quickly produce large numbers of offspring – who then go and do likewise.
So-called "no-kill" shelters are a luxury which are feasible only in areas where some other organization performs the euthanasia which is rightfully the responsibility of that shelter. Even though we now have animal control programs operated by local governments, it is important to recognize that these programs are also run by human beings who love animals and who are just as reluctant as we are to be forced to euthanize perfectly healthy animals.
I wish the former Humane Association of Wilson County, Inc. was back.

The mysterious Rye Town Hilton homicide was the third murder case in Rye Brook's brief history. I remember the first one, which was in 1988.
At the time, I was an editor working out of Gannett's Sound Shore bureau in New Rochelle. We got a telephone call from a local funeral home. The undertaker had an obituary for a 79-year-old woman and they wanted it printed in the next day's paper. They said the woman died "after a short illness."
Uh, it wasn't exactly so.
It turned out she was bludgeoned to death by her landlord, who wanted her out of her apartment. I seem to recall that the obit ran as if she had peacefully died in her sleep.
Somebody lied, either the cops or the funeral home…or both. I never did get to the bottom of it, but I do know that the police chief at the time was hard to deal with.
Rye Brook was a new municipality, too, carved out of Rye Town in 1982, so maybe there was an element of inexperience at work. In any event, and for whatever reason, they wanted the woman's death out of the public eye.
Not so with the case of Ben Novack, Jr., the son of the founder of Miami's famed Foutainbleau Hotel, who was found dead in his hotel room over the weeked. The Hilton was turned into a crime scene. A couple next door to Novack's room was told to leave. And a press conference was held.
What a difference in sophistication from 21 years ago.

Hockey is one of the fastest team sports and requires a lotof light, for players, referees and spectators. The lightingneeds to contribute towards the contracts between the puck and the ice with excellent uniformity so everyone involved can clearly see what is happening. In a nontelevisedcontext 600lx on the ice is sufficient but whenbroadcasting this has to be at least 1000 lux often more. When planning the light it is important to ensure that thespectator area is lit to at least 30% of the playing surfaceto avoid tiring visual contrast. During the initial line-upsand breaks lower levels are commonplace with spotlights following the players as they move around the rink,assuming the system is optimised with lighting control.

Victory Cocktail Ring
This pattern is available as a free Ravelry download
I was inspired by the floral cocktail rings that Victory Ford wears on Lipstick Jungle. Any size can be obtained from this pattern since you fit the ring to you as you go. However, the size shown is approximately a woman's 8.75.
Remember to be careful with sizing the ring band. I noticed that the thread stretches out a lot with wear so it might be better to make it one stitch smaller than you think it needs to be.

FINANCE/ Bertone: This is the global illusion that feeds the crisis
Customers in the Apple store
At the end of last summer, Lai Xiaodong, 22, left his native village to answer the call of the huge factory of Chengdu, which is none other than Foxconn, the giant with a half million employees that has produced, among other wonders of technology, the 37 million new iPads sold from September to December. Lai Xiaodong, however, probably never had the opportunity to push start and see the illuminated icon and glossy screen of the iPad. But that screen cost him his life. The accumulation of the aluminum dust used for the final cleaning of the iPad screen caused a sudden, violent explosion, fatal for Lai and three of his colleagues, and also injuring 18 others, more or less seriously.
A few days ago, the New York Times published an extensive report on working conditions in the Xhengdu factory, where the steep outside stairs of the dormitory are sealed with steel mesh after a wave of suicides a couple of years ago. This is an embarrassing accusation for Apple, but not only Apple is implicated, since the factory of Chengdu, owned by a millionaire in Taiwan who plans to replace the workers with robots by 2020, serves everyone: Dell, Hewlett Packard, IBM, Lenovo, Motorola, Nokia, Sony, Toshiba and many others.
The news from the factories in China came in conjunction with Apple's new record 13 billion dollar profit in three months, for a market capitalization of 416 billion. The salary, including bonuses, stock options and pay packet that Tim Cook, the man who took the helm of Apple after the death of the genius Steve Jobs, took home in 2011 was $378 million. Can the work of one man, however talented he may be, be worth $378 million? Can you justify the wage gap that separates American workers from the top managers? And what justification can a salary like that have when you look at the working conditions of Chengdu or other suppliers?
Of course, the company based in San Jose has published a code of conduct for suppliers, which until recently, was jealously kept secret. Today we know more. As noted by the Times, at least half of the suppliers have violated labor laws in their country of origin (China or Southeast Asia) at least once. "Apple never cared about anything other than increasing product quality and decreasing product cost", said Li MingQi, the former director of Foxconn, now working as a lawyer on behalf of the victims of accidents at work. At company headquarters, the New York Times got some confirmation of this. Executives, starting with Jobs, tried to do more on more than one occasion. But how? The market is hungry for iPhones, iPads, and so on. We cannot waste time, also because we have so many wonderful new products waiting.

0. phoneArena posted on 05 Sep 2013, 01:30
On Wednesday, we showed you a video that compared the size of the Apple iPad 5 with the Apple iPad 4 using a leaked shell from the upcoming slate; the results were as expected, with a narrower and thinner iPad 5 coming. Additionally, the next full-sized Apple iPad takes its design cues from the Apple iPad mini, which can be easily noticed by comparing the two tablets...

What are you talking about? The OG Mini was $320. I agree it's not the lowest price out there, especially for the specs, but it's much lower than $500.
Considering the Mini 2 will most likely be priced similarly to the Mini 1, the "low priced" Mini, if it exists, would likely be lower than $320.

still tho, the only way apple gives you a deal is on their old outdated crap that was outdated when it was new so, how is that a good deal for anyone? Ya, I am looking right at you mini 1 with 1024x768 display oh and you too iPad 2.. oh and all the S versions of anything. I could go on and on but you get the point

No, the are going to re release the original mini and call it the iPad mini C so the sheep will think they are getting something new and rebuy what they already have. Brilliant yet desperate.

ipad mini retina for the win
3. Commentator (Posts: 3722; Member since: 16 Aug 2011)
Apple's way of circumventing "budget" devices: continue selling 2.5 year old devices in the iPad 2 and (2.5 in spec-years anyways) the iPad Mini 1. Given their longer-than-normal product lifespan, I'd be amazed if the iPhone C is marketed as "budget" after all.

Why am I bored? Oh the same conservative design and OS, next news article please.

I hope they come in champagne! Or light blue! Or dark blue! Or charcoal! Or gunmetal! Or teal! Or gold (not champagne)! Or off-white! Or garnet-red! Or a granier-picture of the garnet-red model! Or a high-rez picture of all of them together! Or them coming off the assembly line! Or poorly-rendered prototype that some graphic designer put together just for fun!
Whatever the color, I expect (nay, DEMAND) PhoneArena be at the forefront of reporting each and every leak. It's what I've become accustomed to here.

I know that in November last year i said i would write two more parts to Moddb in the middle east.... but unfortunately i havent had the time nor the drive to write them... i do have a little bit written for part nine, that i've written in like 5 minutes a week.... so probably wont be up for a fair while....
I have started writing a little bit about my Tanean race and their history.... I have decided to build them into the Stargate Universe (Not show just the general universe :P)... ive had Four ideas on how the tanean civilisation started to grow...
1. Milky Way Galaxy: Tanea, was once under the rule of Ares until 300 years ago the people rebelled and he left the planet.
2. Milky Way Galaxy: The Tanean population was transplanted to the planet, by an unknown Goa'uld as an experiment to see how long it would take humans to grow enough technologically to become a threat, but this Goa'uld was defeated and everyone who knew about them was killed along with him.
3. Pegasus Galaxy: Tanea was once a rich feeding ground until the wraith who culled their planet disappeared leaving them to grow unculled for hundreds of years.
4. Pegasus Galaxy: Tanea was uninhabited until hundreds of years ago people from many different civilisations banded together and found a safe planet unknown by the wraith and started anew.
I would love if you could give me some feedback and which one you think would be better.... or if you think you have something better please share..... for the love of god SHARE XD

Red Sox pitching coach Farrell candidate for Bucs job
To fill their manager vacancy, the Pirates might be eyeing someone from a powerhouse team in the American League East.
It's not Joe Torre.
Boston Red Sox pitching coach John Farrell has emerged as a candidate to replace fired manager Jim Tracy, according to league sources.
Farrell is in his first season with the Red Sox. He spent the previous five seasons in the Cleveland Indians' front office.
Farrell was the Indians' director of player development, taking the job in 2002 after Neal Huntington was promoted to assistant general manager. Farrell and Huntington worked closely together, monitoring the progress of Cleveland's minor-league prospects.
Last month, Huntington was named the Pirates' general manager.
Huntington, who did not return a phone call for comment Thursday, has declined to reveal the names of those he will interview for the manager's job. Farrell, who yesterday was preparing the Red Sox for Game 5 of the American League Championship Series, was unavailable for comment.
Indians third base coach Joel Skinner, and Class AAA managers Torey Lovullo and Trent Jewett also are expected to be on Huntington's list.
Farrell, 45, does not have any managerial experience. However, he was an assistant coach at Oklahoma State for five years before taking the job in Cleveland.
While Farrell was at Oklahoma State, Dave Holliday, of Uniontown, also was on the coaching staff.
Holliday is a special assignment scout for the Colorado Rockies, and has inquired about the Pirates' scouting director vacancy.
Among the players Holliday helped bring into the Rockies' system are his nephew Matt Holliday, Garrett Atkins, Troy Tulowitzky and Brad Hawpe.
Notes: Rick Kranitz, who had been mentioned as a candidate to be the Pirates' next pitching coach, was hired Wednesday by Baltimore. The Pirates will not begin mulling coaches until a new manager is in place, but one possibility is former Orioles skipper Sam Perlozzo, who lives in Cumberland, Md. ... The Pirates owe Tracy about $1 million for next season, which means he doesn't have an immediate need to find a job. But if a big-league team came calling -- the Orioles are seeking a bench coach, for example -- Tracy would be hard-pressed to say no.

Lions Match Crusaders in Second Half Scoring, but are Unable to Overcome First Half Deficit
BELMONT, N.C. – The Saint Leo women's lacrosse team matched its opponent in second half scoring, but the Lions were unable to overcome a five goal first half deficit to upend the Belmont Abbey Crusaders in south region action on Wednesday afternoon at Alumni Field. The Lions fell to the Crusaders, 13-8, dropping to a mark of 5-3, while Belmont Abbey advances its record to 6-1.
The Lions were led in scoring by Kelsey Burns, who netted a hat trick and earned an assist on the day. Andrea Kuhl scored two goals of her own, while Bethanny Jolly, Allie Sheftall, and Christina Minneci scored one apiece. Adding assists on the afternoon were Alix Murray with two and Sheftall with one.
The Crusaders were led by Shanin Darley with four, and MacKenzie Miller with three. Katy Connery earned four points on the day, scoring two goals and adding two assists.
In cage for Saint Leo, Kaylyn Kearns allowed seven goals while making three saves in 30 minutes of action. Brittany Millsap allowed six while earning one save in her 30 minutes between the pipes, while Belmont Abbey saw Natasha Whitman allow eight goals while making eight saves in 60 minutes of play.
Belmont Abbey opened the game opening up a five goal lead over Saint Leo in the first 16 minutes, but Sheftall got the Lions on the board thanks to an assist by Burns with 13:14 on the clock, followed by a quick goal by Burns 11 seconds later to pull the Lions to within three, 5-2.
The Crusaders closed out the first half with two more goals to set the score at 7-2, and opened up the second half with another to pull ahead by a tally of 8-2. The Lions answered back with two, but Belmont Abbey traded blows and rallied two goals of its own to set the score at 10-4 with 16:11 to play.
Kuhl scored at the 11:58 mark to pull Saint Leo back to within five, 10-5, but the Crusaders rattled off two more to extend their lead to 12-5 with 8:41 left. Burns placed a shot between the pipes off of an assist by Murray with 5:13 on the clock, but a final goal by Belmont Abbey gave the Crusaders a 13-6 lead with 4:35 to play.
The Lions were not about to back down and fought to the very end. Minneci fired an unassisted shot into the cage with 1:36 to go, and Jolly placed a shot between the pipes with 21 seconds on the clock to pull Saint Leo back to within five to close out the game.
The Lions return to action on Friday, March 21, when they take on Pfeiffer University in Misenheimer, N.C. Game time against the Falcons is set for 3 p.m.

Linda Huntley GREAT IDEA AND BOOK
olgapfm Good presentation! We are all woking the same rood.


text: Europe's booking was down 15% on a current -- on a constant currency basis. Asia Pac bookings was down 7%. We believe that these results are consistent with global macroeconomic conditions.Consolidated revenue was $237 million, a decrease of 5% on a current -- on a constant currency basis. EBITDA was $37 million and EBITDA margin was 15%. Continued strong EBITDA even during current difficult economic environment allow us to apply a 3 million shares during the quarter and maintain a strong liquidity position. EPS was $0.06 versus $0.04 in Q1 and $0.09 last year. As a result of tight expense control during the quarter, EPS was in the middle of our guidance range while revenue was at the lower end of the range. Summarizing the quarter. Total bookings were flat on the constant currency basis. North American bookings increased 14%, demonstrating continued adoption of our new product portfolio in the Government, Enterprise and Staffing channels. As an example, during the quarter, Kforce, a major professional staffing and solutions firm, decided to fully integrate Power Resume Search, powered by our 6Sense technology, across their entire organization. As we have discussed, while the adoption of PRS has been very strong, adoption in the staffing sector has lagged for a variety of reasons. We are actively working with other major staffing companies on both PRS and SeeMore. Strong expense management resulted in 6% EPS. As we consider the third quarter, we believe that it is likely that the current weak and uncertain economic environment will continue. In this environment, we continue to position ourselves offensively and defensively. On the offense, we continue to aggressively bring our new products to our clients on a global basis. And we will make investments in marketing to take advantage of specific opportunities. On the defense, we are carefully controlling operating expenses and protecting profitability. We are able to accomplish both at the same time because of the strength of our product portfolio.

Porcupines were mammals native to Earth. Rose Tyler once saw a nature programme on television about porcupines and learned they were irresistibly attracted to salt. She used this information against the Quevvils, a porcupine-like species. (PROSE: Winner Takes All) On another occasion, the Ninth Doctor offered Rose the chance to see the "first porcupines" from Earth's Oligocene era, but she preferred 1960s London. (COMIC: The Love Invasion)
In 430 BC, whilst on a mission for the Braxiatel Collection near Delphi, Bernice Summerfield's grasp of ancient Greek failed her and she used the word porcupine instead of the word gentlemen. This caused some confusion amongst the men she was trying to address. (AUDIO: The Oracle of Delphi)

Nike Vintage treatment tends to be a polarizing design element. You either love or hate pre-yellowed laces and soles, but it's pretty dang difficult to dislike the way it's applied to this new Nike Blazer High VNTG. These joints are like most of the VNTG Blazer series, crafted in a single shade of suede with Sail leather on the Swooshes to match an old sole. This particular pair goes for a faded black that offers bright spots where its particularly worn. These have the potential to be absolutely stunning as they age — just like a pair of high quality Japanese raw denim, and atmos Tokyo just got theirs so have a closer look after the jump and stick with Sneaker News for updates on the US release.

Actress Marcia Gay Harden may see motherhood as a "glorious hijacking," but she says she still manages to enforce a few important rules at home with her kids Eulala, 11, and twins Julitta and Hudson, 5.
"We eat breakfast together every morning, we eat dinner together every night. We don't feed the dog at the table," Marcia tells OK! "There's a certain bath time, there's a certain go-to-bedtime. People who have other mothers think I'm strict. The kids stay up too late, but I like to have a regimen that they can follow. I think they need it."
When the topic of marriage comes up, the Oscar-winner is quick to dismiss the so-called Oscar curse. Wed for 14 years to her husband Thaddeus Scheel, Marcia shares her secrets to maintaining a successful career and a happy marriage.
"It's hard. It's not easy. The balls drop, but we talk. We have conversations, we have therapy, we try to reaffirm what we want to be with each other and for each other with the kids. It's constant work – that's how."
Marcia currently has three projects in the works, including the upcoming animated film Noah's Ark: The New Beginning.

The 2009, 2010 and 2011 Northern Division Player of the Year for the Bears during his freshman, sophomore and junior seasons, Stefanovic also picked up his fourth consecutive Northern Division All-Conference to equal a rare mark.
Joining him on the All-North First Team are fellow repeat All-Conference recipients James McNamara (Jr., Los Angeles, Calif./Harvard-Westlake) (2011 First Team, 2010 Second Team) and Henry Fox (So., Mercer Island, Wash./Lakeside School) (2011 Second Team) of Brown, Marko Gencic (Sr., Belgrade, Serbia/Sports Gymnasium) (2011 First Team, 2010 First Team) and goalie Igor Mladenovic (Jr., Belgrade, Serbia/Sportska Gimnazija) (2011 Second Team, 2010 Second Team) of St. Francis College and Craig Cheney (Jr., Sherwood, Ore./Newberg) (2011 First Team, 2010 Rookie of the Year, 2010 Second Team) of the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT). The lone newcomer to the First Team is Ben Zepfel (Fr., Newport Beach, Calif./Corona del Mar) of Harvard University.
In addition to St. Francis' First Team selections, the Terriers' program picks up another piece of hardware as head coach Igor Samardzija claims his second consecutive Northern Division Coach of the Year plaque.
The Second Team is comprised of first-time All-Conference recipients led by Bosko Stankovic (Jr., Belgrade, Serbia/Sport Gymnasium), Liam Veazey (Fr., Dallas, Texas/Bryan Adams) and Vuk Vujosevic (So., Belgrade, Serbia/Milos Crnjanski) of St. Francis College.
Ory Tasman (Fr., Orlando, Fla./Winter Park) and Northern Division Rookie of the Year Kale Rogers (Fr., Newberg, Ore./Newberg) of MIT and Jake Lloyd (So., Sinking Spring, Pa./Wilson) of Iona College complete the field players, with Fordham University goalie Noah LeBeau (So., Long Beach, Calif./Wilson Classical) rounding out the 14-member All-Conference squad.

Re/Beetle Swap
Hi Mark.
Has there ever been a Beetle Pattern Swap as I haven't noticed any?
They are quite easy to Tie look good & catch lots of Fish & the variations are unlimited.
Re: Re/Beetle Swap
Nice idea, I'll play
How do you like this for a pattern from the Laird himself
Re: Re/Beetle Swap
Im interested as well!
Re: Re/Beetle Swap
John, Paul, George... Beetles are probably better all summer patterns than hoppers, great idea. I'd get in on it.
Now we wait for Ringo, er...Mark...
Re: Re/Beetle Swap
La jolla, wow, that would be a great pattern! Much fancier than my beetle. I have a simple foam pattern that cleaned up for me last year. Just a foam cylinder with peacock herl and some hackle and I'd be happy to tie it for the swap.
Re: Re/Beetle Swap
Hmmm.... A dozen beatles... I could likely do that, if the due-date was out far enough.
Re: Re/Beetle Swap
I will play.Im on a foam kick already.
Re: Re/Beetle Swap
I was thinking (and some of yu are learning just how dangerous that is....)
If the swap is open to beetles and ants, there should be no problem getting a dozen tyers to participate, as those get used for most all cold and warm species. Additionally, there are enough varient's on the patterns that there should be a good mix of interesting ties!
I'm tying later today as part of a demo-tie at the local LL Bean, that our club is supporting, and all I need is some rubber leg material. Hopefully, they will have some in stock.
Re: Re/Beetle Swap
Have fun tying today!
Re: Re/Beetle Swap
I'll give it a shot . Like the Beatles . And beetle flys to. Hey we need some of you talented guys on the Saltwater Streamer swap . How bout it?

Love The Look: Nicole Richie Sparkles in Halston Sequin Dress (PHOTOS)
Nicole Richie looked ultra glam on Sunday as she arrived solo at Fred Segal to launch her House of Harlow line in West Hollywood.
The fashionista rocked a white sequin-filled Halston dress with bits of red peeking out around the edges and finished the look with her signature House of Harlow sparkling accessories.
Nicole kept her hair and makeup simple with a smoky eye and nude lips and relaxed curls in her hair for the event while hubby, Joel Madden, sat this one out.
Nicole, 30, is ending her year on a high note for sure! She was recently named "Style Influencer of the Year" at the Accessories Council's ACE Awards and is anticipating the premiere of her new NBC show, Fashion Star, where Nicole will act as a mentor for the competing designers!

ORLANDO, Fla. - SeaWorld Orlando rescued a wayward manatee named "Lil Joe" from the Little Econlockhatchee River on Friday.
SeaWorld officials say the manatee traveled an estimated 25 miles through the St. Johns River to just outside downtown Orlando.
Lil Joe is approximately 14 feet long and 1,000 pounds. He was transported from the Little Econlockhatchee River to SeaWorld's Manatee Rehabilitation Facility for evaluation. SeaWorld officials said Lil Joe has responded well and is eating on his own.
In July of 1989, as a young orphaned manatee he was rescued near Daytona Beach, Fla. and brought to SeaWorld's Manatee Rehabilitation Facility. Weighing only 42 pounds, he was given the nickname, Lil Joe.

…about dealing with the national media" writes Salisbury MP John Glen after being "done up like a kipper" by Channel 4 News in a report about the plight of low-paid workers.
The report had focussed on the Trussell Trust's revelation that the soaring cost of living means that even people in paid jobs are now relying on help from the TT's food-bank.
By chance, I'd seen the report and was astonished when John Glen apparently suggested that the problem lay in people having the wrong priorities – familiar to economists as "secondary poverty". But Mr Glen says a C4 crew recorded a 20-minute interview, and then used a 30-second clip which was highly damaging.
That's totally unprofessional, and no doubt there will already have been a searching internal inquiry. But how can he ensure it doesn't happen again? Easy. In future he should ask the producer what areas will be covered, and how the interview will fit into the planned story.
If they start talking about "balance" beware – the interviewee will be shown as taking sides. Secondly he should ask how long the interviewer wants. Most clips used nowadays are 15-second sound-bites. If the interview drags on, stop the recording and ask why.
And finally, I'd advise anyone who gets really done over to tell Ofcom. Although it never happened to me, a colleague once had a story referred to the old Broadcasting Complaints Commission, and the huge amount of paperwork involved dragged on for months, infuriating his bosses. That can harm a reporter's career, so it's a real sanction.
Watching The Promise on television…
… has been fascinating. I was seven when Stern Gang terrorists hanged two British Army sergeants in an orange-grove, and I can still remember the photograph on every front page.
So, like many of my generation, it's been interesting to see what the producers have got right and spotting mistakes. One I noticed was the hero (a Para) firing his sten-gun while clutching the magazine. You never held a sten like that because the notoriously loose magazine-catch meant the mag would fall off. Instead you tucked your hand underneath and clasped the barrel.
I know, I know, I really must get out more...

The Most Hilarious Unauthorized Celebrity Endorsements
Image is everything when you're a celeb (just ask Lindsay Lohan.) Endorsement deals are big money business, but some foreign companies don't feel like they have to pay stars, even for an erectile dysfunction ad. Now, that's just insult to injury! But the damage is done and hilarious, so here's a round up of the funniest unauthorized celeb spokesmodeling from around the globe…
1. Mena Suvari condoms prove the actress needs some extra protection — from her lawyer!
2. Gwyneth Paltrow's gym costs $4500 for membership, plus monthly fees. How could Angelina Joliedo it with a hula hoop from the dollar store?
3. Mischa Barton Discount Panties — like that washed up ho ever gets full coverage!
4. Katie Holmes MP3 4 Player — we're not sure what the 4 is for, or why Katie Holmes makes anyone think of the tag "no limit". Why didn't they rip a pic of an actual musician?
5. A Brazilian company used a cartoon of Steve Carell to advertise office products. This sounds like something narcissistic Michael Scott would do!
6. While Oprah loves to give away prizes, free Acai Berry Weight Loss products just don't stack up to a free car.
7. David "Goldenballs" Beckham, draped in a tiger skin, got slapped on the cover of "Long Love" Chinese condoms. But that's not the only abuse of his image….
8. Beckham, along with Keanu Reeves and Sean Connery, was used in a commercial to hock USA Selikon, an erectile dysfunction drug. The name is boner, James Boner.

A 15-Song Outline of Crass Records' Catalog...
Although Crass Records never "sold out" the way Epitaph seemed to in the 1990s, it is afflicted with a similar image problem. One persistent perception, for example, is that Crass Records was a haven for 2-dimensional, snarling, spiky haired punk bands of the Chaos UK variety. In reality, the label's catalog is much more complicated. Crass and its side imprint, Corpus Christi, featured a diverse array of industrial, electro-punk, deathrock and postpunk bands. Indeed, a few years ago, Penny Rimbaud proclaimed in an interview that he never wanted Crass Records to simply put out "endless bloody thrash music, which I find boring."
What follows is a brief overview of fifteen postpunk and experimental releases put out under the Crass Records banner.

The Use of New Technology and Occupational Mobility: An Event History Analysis of the Swiss Labor Market
The investigation of the consequences of new technologies has a long standing tradition within economics. Particularly, labor economists are wondering how the introduction of new technologies, e.g. Personal Computers, have shaped labor markets. Former research has concentrated on the question of whether on-the-job use of PCs creates a wage bonus for employees. In this paper, we investigate whether the use of PCs increases employees' probability of an upward shift in their employment status and whether it reduces the risk of involuntary labor market exits. We do so by applying event history analysis to the Swiss Labor Market Survey, a random sample of 3028 respondents, and by analyzing a Panel sub-sample of 650 respondents conducted recently in Switzerland. Our results show that on-the-job use of PCs was beneficial for employees in the past by increasing their probability of an upward shift by approximately 50%. The analysis also suggests that PC use reduces the risk and duration of unemployment. However, these latter results fail to reach statistical significance.

JiaYu G3 વિ ન્યૂમેન N1
This is my first post in the Comparisons category of this site. Since many are asking, which of these two said phones is the best buy, I decided to come up with this so-called comparison guide for each and everyone.
Note that this is just based on my personal evaluation on the data we can gather, as I do not have the phones in hand actually.
આ JiaYu G3 and Newman N1 is yet to arrive and many people already decided to get the JiaYu G3 for them, but then this Newman N1 came for a slightly lower price and also with those impressive specs.
In case you have missed it, check out my spec reviews on the said MT6577 smartphones:
So well then, let's now proceed on comparing these two.
JiaYu G3 વિ ન્યૂમેન N1: System and CPU
|Phone model
|Android OS
|JiaYu G3
|MT6577 ડ્યુઅલ કોર 1.0GHz
|PowerVR SGX Series5 3D
|Android 4.0 Ice Cream Sandwich (ICS)
|ઇંગલિશ, ઇટાલીનું, ફ્રેન્ચ. સ્પેનિશ, રશિયાનું, થાઈ, વિયેતનામીસ, Arabic, જર્મન, Indonesian, Chinese, ટર્કીશ, પોર્ટુગીઝ ભાષા, મલય, others
|MT6577 ડ્યુઅલ કોર 1.0GHz
|PowerVR SGX531 Ultra
|Android 4.0 Ice Cream Sandwich (ICS)
|ઇંગલિશ, ઇટાલીનું, ફ્રેન્ચ. સ્પેનિશ, રશિયાનું, થાઈ, વિયેતનામીસ, Arabic, જર્મન, Indonesian, Chinese, ટર્કીશ, પોર્ટુગીઝ ભાષા, મલય, others
The only difference here is the GPU used. Cannot say much about as I cannot find much information about hte SGX531 Ultra, whether its a bettr shot than the Series5 3D. You might like to read about the wiki article about PowerVR GPUs. Other stuff, just the same. They use the same MT6577 dual core CPU chip, runs on Android 4.0 ICS and has multi-language support.
Winner: Draw.
JiaYu G3 વિ ન્યૂમેન N1: યાદ
Memory-wise, they have the same 1GB RAM and 4GB ROM. Both supports 32GB external SD card expansion.
Winner: Draw.
JiaYu G3 વિ ન્યૂમેન N1: Physical
|Phone model
|JiaYu G3
|135 ચોકડીનું ચિહ્ન 65 ચોકડીનું ચિહ્ન 10.8 મીમી
|121 સંગીતમાં મુખ્ય સપ્તક સી નો પાંચમો સૂર
|127.5 × 65 × 9.8 મીમી
|130 સંગીતમાં મુખ્ય સપ્તક સી નો પાંચમો સૂર
The Newman N1 is slightly thinner at 1mm difference, the JiaYu G3 has greater length of 7.5mm difference. They have the same width, but the Newman N1 is heavier even if it has the lesser volume. કૂવો, these physical specs isn't really an important factor on choosing which phone is better for smart guys, do you agree?
Winner: Conditional.
JiaYu G3 વિ ન્યૂમેન N1: સ્ક્રીન
|Phone model
|JiaYu G3
|4.5 ઇંચ
|HD resolution (1280 ચોકડીનું ચિહ્ન 720 પિક્સેલ્સ)
|4.3 ઇંચ
|qHD resolution (960 ચોકડીનું ચિહ્ન 540 પિક્સેલ્સ)
Quick glance, you can clearly say that the JiaYu G3 wins this category. I will definitely get the one with bigger screen size, even if its just a little difference of 0.2 inch. Both of them have IPS type of capacitive multi-touch screen. The G3 also have the better resolution, thus giving a better display quality compared to others.
Winner: JiaYu G3.
JiaYu G3 વિ ન્યૂમેન N1: કૅમેરા
They both have the same camera, 8.0 megapixels as main snapper and 0.3 secondary. Both have Auto Focus and LED Flash. There isnt much information about these, but it was posted that the N1 has support on recording of video at 1080p (1920 × 1080 પિક્સેલ્સ, 30 frames/sec) quality with audio, while there isnt anything mentioned with the G3.
Winner: partly Newman N1.
JiaYu G3 વિ ન્યૂમેન N1: બેટરી
|Phone model
|JiaYu G3
|Li-ion battery 2750 માહ
|Li-ion battery 1700 માહ
Having an edge of 1000mAh more battery rating capacity, the JiaYu G3 wins with its 2750mAh battery. Its definitely a better choice as you will have more usage time with it, rather than having the 1700mAh battery of the N1.
Winner: JiaYu G3.
JiaYu G3 વિ ન્યૂમેન N1: ભાવ
|Phone model
|JiaYu G3
With all the edge in specs by the JiaYu G3, here's something that makes people consider the Newman N1; the price. The Newman N1 has an incredibly low price of just $149.99 which is a $30 difference compared to the JiaYu G3. So if you have a tight budget to consider, then this Newman N1 is never a bad choice.
Winner: ન્યૂમેન N1
JiaYu G3 વિ ન્યૂમેન N1: Overall
Other stuff, its pretty much identical between these phones. They are both dual SIM with 3G, and each have the same other features you normally see on an Android phone.
So in summary, to help you decide (in which this post is aimed at) which phone to get, here's the points to consider:
- Design preference – If you are into iPhone look and metallic style of handset to carry around; then get the JiaYu G3. But if you prefer the curvaceous and thin design of the Newman N1; then choose it. Plus, the N1 has more color variations to choose from.
- Budget – If you have a budget of $200 for your next phone, then the JiaYu G3 is definitely the best choice.

Officials consider offer of bridge for emergency use in Penn Twp.
Penn Township officials are pondering a developer's offer to donate a 30-foot steel bridge that would be used to provide emergency vehicles access across a creek to the skate park in Municipal Park.
If officials were to accept the bridge, they might have to reserve an estimated $8,000 to $10,000 for engineering work related to its installation, Commissioner Larry Harrison said.
Harrison broached the topic for a discussion during the Penn Township Recreation Commission's meeting on Sept. 26, but the recreation board declined to make a recommendation to township commissioners.
"It's not in (the commissioners') proposed budget at this point," Harrison said.
The bridge likely will be a topic at the commissioners' Oct. 16 caucus meeting as they begin to prepare for passing a preliminary budget for 2014 in November.
Rec board members Kirk Farbacher and Phil Kochasic said they want to know the cost to build a foot bridge over the creek before they would consider recommending how the commissioners should proceed.
Ray Snoznik, the developer of The Village at Stonegate housing plan, is offering to donate the bridge. Besides engineering costs, the township would be responsible for paying any fees to the state Department of Environmental Protection related to the bridge installation.
Snoznik did not return a message requesting comment about the proposed donation.

Shank is making a comeback, announced EA Games and Klei Entertainment today. Shank 2 will be coming to the Xbox Live Arcade, PlayStation Network and PC in early 2012.
Shank 2 will see Shank return to duty once again to defend those close to him. The game will bring back the series' staple Venture Bros.-esque visual aesthetic and brutal side-scrolling, beat-em-up gameplay. Shank 2 will even feature a new co-op "survival" mode, which sees two players teaming up to take down hordes of enemies by using the environment and weapon pick-ups to their advantage.
"Creatively, Shank still has a lot to give" said Jamie Cheng, founder of Klei Entertainment. "We took the feedback from the community and ran with it, putting our own flavor on every change. For Shank 2, we literally took apart the game and put it back together to push the envelope in combat mechanics, visuals, and 2D animation in games."
Over on Klei's official website, the company has posted the first trailer for Shank 2. Give it a watch below. Consider me pumped.

As a native Long Islander, I was able to witness firsthand the destructive Hurricane Sandy on Monday. Fortunately, my friends and family all emerged from the storm unscathed and without any major damage to their home. Many others were not so lucky.
New Yorkers have had their share of storm scares before in the past but NOTHING like this. We have our yearly nor'easters, blizzards and thunderstorms. There has even been the occasional tropical storm.
In the days leading up to any big storm there is always that group of people who take lots of precautions. They stock up on batteries and canned food and buy out Home Depot. They buy all the bottled water and create lines at the gas stations. Those people make it impossible to run any errand the few days prior.
Then you have the other group of people that mock those cautious people. You walk into any supermarket before a big storm and you'll likely hear someone make a comment in jest, like "Haven't you people ever seen a storm before?" Or "Is the apocalypse coming or something?" I even cracked a joke at those type people on this blog before.
More often than not, those people were right. The major blizzard would end up being just a light dusting and the big summer storm would weaken by the time it reached us. Those "overly-cautious" people would be left with a cabinet full of unused batteries and canned soup.
That was the case with Hurricane Irene in 2011. The storm was hyped for days leading up to it. Though it did cause some serious damage, considering the way it was hyped, it turned out to be fairly mild. And I think that it was Irene that made New Yorkers a little cocky this time around. We thought Sandy would be just another one of these storms. It might even turn into a fun night. We'd hunker down at a friend's house, get drunk and play Monopoly until it passed. Then we'd come out the next morning and enjoy an off day from work or school.
Just hours before the storm on October 29 hit its hardest, News 12 was interviewing residents of Long Beach, (one of my favorite Long Island spots) who were hanging out on the boardwalk and didn't seem worried at all. Now look at it.
I, myself, was not prepared for this storm. I didn't have enough food, enough batteries or enough gas. I didn't pack an emergency kit or have enough bottled water. I had no generator.
And at around 6 p.m. Eastern time that day, it became pretty apparent to me and just about everyone in this area, that this was no joke. This was not just another overhyped storm.
As I looked outside my window at my large oak tree swaying violently throughout the night, I thought it was only a matter of time before it came crashing down into my living room. I started frantically packing a bag in the event we had to run out of there at any moment. Fortunately, that never happened. Mr. and Mrs. Sacks, and our cat, are perfectly fine.
In the aftermath and up until hours before writing this post, we were living like peasants. We had no heat, no hot water and no electricity. In some areas, people couldn't even use their toilets or drink water. Others are fighting each other just to get gasoline. We were woefully unprepared. Many people, like me, have just been inconvenienced for a few days. Others suffered far worse consequences.
From now on, I will not take Mother Nature lightly. When the next big storm is hyped on the Weather Channel, I will be in that new group of people who is cleaning out the C batteries on the shelf and buying all the Progresso Soup. If I'm told to leave, I am leaving. It's better to be safe than sorry. And I recommend you do the same.

With its wide, flowing gravel roads and smooth surfaces it is the fastest rally of the season. Spectacular roller-coaster jumps and stunning scenery among Finland's lakes and forests help create an atmosphere that attracts thousands of fans.
Only two non-Nordic drivers have won in the event's 52-year history and insiders say that technically the event is incredibly difficult.
Bravery counts, especially on the jumps that frequently hide bends just over the crests, emphasising a driver's ability to place his car with pinpoint accuracy before the "yump" to ensure a correct line on landing. This places high demand on precise pace notes and any lifting off the throttle to correct the driving line is magnified more than elsewhere.
This favours the locals, whose knowledge of the terrain is unmatched. The event will cover 403.34 kilometres of competition over 23 stages.
Points scores after eight rounds of the 14-round championship are: 1: R Burns 43. 2: C Sainz 39. 3: M Gronholm 38. 4: S Loeb 33. 5: P Solberg 30. 6: C McRae 28. 7: M Martin 27. 10: F Duval 11. Manufacturers: 1: Peugeot 95. 2: Citroen 88. 3: Ford 50. 4: Subaru 49. 5: Skoda 20. 6: Hyundai 7.
Adelaide driver Ed Ordynski will attempt to claw his way back into contention in the Australian rally championship this weekend by following his win in the NSW Premier State Rally with victory on his home soil.
The Mitsubishi Ralliart driver will go into the 22-stage Rally of South Australia - based in the Barossa Valley, north of Adelaide - in second place in the title points, trailing Subaru driver Cody Crocker 106 to 74 after three rounds of the six-round series.
