Why lock (or unlock) the taskbar?
I'm curious about the option "Lock the Taskbar". It is found by right-clicking on the taskbar. I can see one effect and that is that if your taskbar has been setup in the standard way - at the bottom of the display - and it runs horizontally across the display, then, when the taskbar is unlocked, you can increase its size by placing the mouse pointer at the top of the taskbar and "stretching" it vertically just as you can do to any window.
You can also resize it to any rectangular shape and move it to a new position. It doesn't even need to be at the top, bottom, left side or right side of the display. It could be resized and moved like any window and left neat the center of the display. But, what is the value of doing that? Has anyone ever seen a good reason to do this?
How useful is it to take the taskbar and move it away from its original position like that and resize it as some other rectangular shape and use it in that way? What is the value of doing that? I've never seen anyone who used Windows 7 and found a good use for doing this.
Can anyone suggest a good reason for unlocking the taskbar and resizing it and moving it in this way? Also, can anyone suggest anything else useful that can be done after unlocking the taskbar?
I'm just curious. If there is something useful that can be done with the taskbar, I might like to try it. But please don't spend a whole lot of time preparing a response. I'm just curious to see if there is something good that anyone has discovered they can do with an unlocked taskbar.

Just a personal preference to customize the size and placement of the taskbar that is all. Nothing really useful other then maybe being able to hold more icons.

Thanks very much for your reply. That is kind of what I figured. However, I will leave this thread marked "unsolved" for a few days because I suspect that someone may have discovered some useful and/or practical benefit associated with this option. At any rate, let's see if anyone has found any any such use for this.

When taskbar is
locked: some programs don't play nice with the OS and place the windows underneath the taskbar. With the taskbar at the bottom of the screen, the status bar would be blocked. With the taskbar at the top, the buttons would be blocked from being used. Unlocked, these problems can be circumvented.
unlocked: someone less dexterous with the mouse may end up resizing the taskbar instead of the window directly adjacent to it. Depending on the settings, that can be disastrous to the taskbar setup. A full-screen window with a locked taskbar can be resized, instead of resizing to an undesired previous state.

text: Hi, I'm hoping someone might be able to help. I spilt tea over my phone at work. After drying off the phone as best I could found that it kept lowering the sound and switching on car mode. I dried it off a little bit more and now find that I can't turn down the sounds using the volume button. This is for all system sounds although I can turn everything up. Also the optical mouse does not not work. I will try leaving it in uncooked rice overnight but I think I may well of broken it for good unless someone can help..

A lot of car for the money
By methuselah38 on
Vehicle2012 Subaru Forester 2.5X 4dr SUV AWD (2.5L 4cyl 5M)
ReviewAs the title says, considering the cost of the vehicle, I'm very pleased.
My mileage is always above 31MPG (rural driving & warm weather).
I'm surprised by this - but happy of course.
Despite what the EPA says, I'm convinced that a gentle driver gets much better mileage with a manual transmission.
The car handles like a sports car which is amazing considering its high ground clearance.
The ride is quite firm but not uncomfortable.
The high sitting position gives the driver wonderful 360 degree visibility.
Negligible blind areas.
Some road and wind noise which I don't find bothersome.
Best FeaturesLove the sound of the engine. Brisk acceleration - even with 4 adults on board. Lots of rear seat room. I'm a six footer and I don't need the seat all the way back. Lots of head room for me. Super easy oil changing for the do-it-yourselfers. Great brakes.
Worst FeaturesRattles. Lots of people complain about this. I've tracked down a couple of them (use some stick-on foam weather strips here and there to fix). Door bumper strips should be standard - not a super expensive option. Add a "miles to empty" feature to the trip computer. Use a more authoritative horn.

Separate names with a comma.
Discussion in 'General Off-Topic Chat' started by Username?, Oct 9, 2009.
I think a good one would be:
Best username I ever came across was Illicit Trader.
I like simple ones. If possible, I would remove the "dancer" of the end of my name and just be called Edge. Either that or "Horus."
Helga or Matilda
Here on GBAtemp, any username with "drian" at the back is the best username at the moment it was thought up.
I wish I would've done something in Latin to show my love of the language. Possibly Pugnabo AMDG. Anybody who attend(ed)s a Jesuit high school would probably recognize AMDG meaning Ad Maiorem Dei Gloriam (To/For the Greater Glory of God) and Pugnabo is the future active of pugno meaning fight. I will fight for the greater glory of God.
Fear. Well any emotion you can really think of isn't as creative as it seems.
iTouchU2Much Sounds good
I've thought of the best name ever, iSnack2.0 , OMG I'm a genius
Triple-X instead for XxX
And then you could be hated by a nation.
xD epic
Best username I saw was on XBL: "CATFEESH", which sounds really funny when you read it aloud.
saw it on xbl xD
whats about this ''[bstusrnameucnthnkf]'' or this "[8=>()]"
or just "citrustee"

A multivariate approach for identification of optimal locations with in Ethiopia's wheat market to tackle soaring inflation on food price
Two surplus markets of Bale Robe and Shashimiene and one deficit market of Jimma are observed to fix long run price. However the system is observed to have better capacity to process demand side than supply side shocks. Therefore for efficient stabilization the focus should be in Jimma. For equity and political feasibility it would be preferable if poor deficit centers are provided with subsidized supply of grain, too. Though distance did not seem to be an important factor for border of one price but only for strength of cointegration, the methodology used by early papers is observed to work.

Push the Heart
"Sara Lov's vocals float over the music, like she's being lulled to sleep. It's some of the loveliest heartbreak I've ever heard. You almost forget that this is some sad, sad stuff, and then your heart breaks into a million little tiny pieces."
--Stylus Magazine
I got the new Devics record in the mail the other day, and I have to say, I knew nothing about the band prior to listening to it. Devics is vocalist Sara Lov and multi-instrumentalist and sometime singer Dustin O'Halloran, and their new record, Push the Heart, comes out March 7.
Recommended for fans of Cat Power, Mazzy Star, and Portishead. Very pretty stuff:

Cats, Circus Death Traps, Prisons and More Published by Team17
If I was to say "Team 17" to you, what would be the first thing that springs to mind?
If your answer was worms armed to the teeth with ridiculously disproportionate weaponry, then you'd easily be right. Yet the studio from Yorkshire had got a whole smorgasbord of games to show me during gamescom, none of which involved the wee critters.
All of the games that Team17 showed me during gamescom were from independent developers that Team17 have set up a publishing deal with, to help bring their games to the masses. Here's a quick run-through of the games I saw, although look out for some more fleshed out previews here on GGS in the near future.
The Escapists
This one may ring a bell for some, as it was a game that featured during Microsoft's gamescom press briefing with it being part of the ID@Xbox program. The Escapists is also in the works for PC with the game available on Early Access now. It's a game all about making use of the limited time available to plot an escape from the prison you find yourself in.
Devleoped by Mouldy Toof Studios, you are free to explore the prison (within reason, guards don't like wandering inmates too much) and complete tasks that you're able to do in order to gain skills that may be useful in your escape. These skills could help procure items which might be equally as important.
If you can't keep that job going for any number of reasons (causing trouble perhaps?) the you may have to take on a favour requested by one of your fellow inmates to help fill that funding gap.
The open nature of the game leads to all sorts of possibilities for exploration, and the inmates have that 'cheeky chappy' banter that I couldn't help but chuckle at every time a speech bubble popped up.
Look out for a preview of this on GGS very soon, but you can try the game out now by getting in with the Early Access version on Steam.
Poor Willy.
All he wanted to do was visit the circus and watch some crazy acrobatics. Unfortunately, the poor lad went in the wrong door of the circus and is now part of the act. What's even more unfortunate is that the circus is quite the death-trap.
The principle with Penarium is simple: dodge the nasty stuff, smash all the barrels and collect all the coins. It's a race to the top with coins meaning points, but those traps will never let off, especially in the harder difficulties.
I'll be going a little bit more in depth with Penarium this week with a preview, but I will say for now that playing this game in versus multiplayer gets seriously competitive, and extremely fun.
Jumping on your opponent's head is an encouraged tactic, 'nuff said.
Penarium by Self Made Miracle is due for release this year for PC.
Schrödinger's Cat and the Raiders of the Lost Quark
It's all about physics in this platformer that's a little bit of everything: puzzler, combat-platformer and story adventure. Almost like the cat that features as the main protagonist!
Voiced by A.J. LoCascio, the same actor that voiced Marty McFly in Telltale's Back to the Future point-and-click games, Schrödinger's Cat is called to the rescue in the midst of a chaotic particle zoo to sort everything out.
He can make use of wee quarks that float around the place, each with special powers, to scale levels and defeat adversaries that may stand in his way. Combining these quarks can do all sorts of things that a situation may call upon. Can't jump high enough? Send some quarks in to give you a copter, easy.
Developers Italic Pig insist that the game is one that "anyone can enjoy, from noobs to Nobel prize winners, with no pre-requisite reading required… honest.".
Although, I'd be pretty chuffed if several people did end up going off to Wikipedia after hearing some of the jokes in this game. The 'ah-ha!' moment is quite something to enjoy.
Schrödinger's Cat and the Raiders of the Lost Quark by Italic Pig is in the works for release this year on PC.
You know how it goes with a lot of multiplayer games here and there…
"What mode shall we play?"
"Can we do first to 10 instead of first to 5?"
"No grenades please!"
Overruled! throws all that out of the window. the base concept is that it's a multiplayer brawler, but the rules can change almost all the time. One minute it could be King of the Hill, holding capture points to score. The next, you could be trying to smash up your opponents as much as you can. These are done through 'Change 'Em Up' cards which can flip the rules in your favour or against them.
Cards can even be stashed whilst you wait for that right opportunity. One good example is if a certain opponent is about to win, you could force a longer respawn time to make sure said person can be kept out for as long as possible!
Overruled! by Dlala Studios is currently on Steam Early Access, with a full release later on in the year.
Hay Ewe
Lastly, we have Hay Ewe, which is quite the black sheep among these games as its being developed for smartphone and tablets.
Poor Matilda is absolutely worried sick about her wee lambs. They've gone walkabout and need rounding up back to safety, so it's up to you to guide Matilda around and guide her and her lambs back home!
Using your finger, you trace a path for Matlida to walk in order to pick up her mischievous lambs. Sounds simple to begin with, but eventually nasty thing like bulls and switches get in the way to force some thinking in how to tackle each of the sixty levels.
On top of that sixty levels, there'll also be a level editor so everyone can create some evil routes to force the sheep around.
Hay Ewe by Rocket Rainbow Studios is on track for release later this year.
That's all folks!
That was a low-down on some of the latest games that Team 17 is publishing. If you're around London in a few week's time, most of these games will be playable in the Rezzed area at EGX London on September 25-28. If you do decided to check them out, let us know what you think!

Fair point about bikes on trains (they fail to mention it's only during peak hour though) – I agree it's simply too busy for a non-folding bicycle during peak hours! Even with the extra carriages it would probably still be too packed.
The rest is a cop out and blame game.. if they knew their stuff they would know that investing in cycling infrastructure and facilities generally results in positive economic gains and represents the best transportation 'bang-for-buck' compared to spending money on motor vehicle/public transport infrastructure.
I used to support Labour, but over time I've become disillusioned and realised that they are just another big, ineffective, populist party that lack vision and back-bone. it's a pity though, as I mentioned in another article if you look at the core political philosophies of all the major political parties cycling is a perfect fit, you would think it would have extensive and bipartisan support. if anything the major parties should be fighting over which is spending the most on cycling infrastructure and implementing the best initiatives, rather than copping out and blaming each other for economic mismanagement as an excuse not to commit to anything.
Next state election I'll vote for the Greens for the first time. They are the only significant party with political will, vision and aren't afraid to stand up for what they believe in.

Chapter 2 - Oops Iraqalypse!
The big word for this hour is:
A literary term which refers to novels that portray the nether side of life, as opposed to the Romance, which tends to portray an idealized view of life. Named after "picaro", the Spanish word for "rogue".
Het eind, eens op een tijd, was enkel het begin.
* * *
Oops Iraqalypse!
Bush will burn your passport...
...and kill your business.
The World Likes Americans, but dislikes Bush.
If we re-elect Bush, the world will dislike Americans too.
Want to go overseas?
Want to do business overseas?
If your answer is YES...
Vote for John Kerry.
Show the World that we care what they think.
You do not have to burn your passport.
You can travel and do business overseas.
It's easier if you are welcome there.
Bush has sadly made us unwelcome.
And to rehire him would spell universal unwelcome.
Think outside the box.
Travel outside the box.
Vote John Kerry in November.
Give yourself a passport to the world.
We can repair the damage.
It's as simple as a vote.
Vote wisely.
Indeed, vote worldly.
Vote Kerry/Edwards in November.
The future is our friend.
And Peace is better than War.
We can create Heaven on Earth.
Is this not God's work?

God, what an idiot!
OK. So here's the plan. Since this is a blognovel, write the bulk of it on blogs… my own, as well as in the form of comments, like I have already done heretofore. See Matt Gross. This way, once can see just how blogs facilitate writing, and so on…
Even Shakespeare is no Shakespeare. How could he be?
One of my favorite humorous bloggers in Madeleine Kane. Madeleine is a derivative of Magdalene, if you didn't know, just as Austin is a contraction of Augustine. Madeleine further contracts her name to be Mad Kane, and Mad Kane writes the songs that make the whole world…double over. Occasionally I will try my hand at a MadKanesque variation on a theme, if you will…
Here goes one!
GETTING BADDER or Bushworld Theme
(to the tune of "Getting Better" - Beatles)
It's getting badder all the time...
I used to get mad at my stool.
The people who bought me weren't cool.
Propping me down, burning me crown,
Feeling me up with your tools...
I've got to admit it's getting badder,
It's a little badder all the time.
I have to admit it's getting badder,
It's getting badder, since you're Ben Klein...
Me used to be angry young man
Me hiding me head in the sand
You gave me a turd
From sheep I can herd
I'm doing the least that I can...
I admit it's getting badder,
It's a little badder all the time,
Yes I admit it's getting badder,
It's getting badder, since you're Ben Klein.
I used to be cool to my woman,
I bleated and cut her a fart on the
Things that she loved
Man I was wrong but I'm changing my thong
And I'm doing the least that I can...
I admit it's getting badder,
A little badder all the time.
Yes I admit it's getting badder,
It's getting badder, since you're Ben Klein.
Getting so much badder all the time...
The Life and Opinions of Anonymoses Hyperlincoln, Narrator
Once upon a time, in Yorkshire, England, there lived a man whose name was Sterne. Laurence Sterne. And he crafted wondrous tales that still delight readers the world over. James Joyce considered him a literary mentor, and Schopenhauer considered him the best novelist of his day, if not for all time. In his book, The Art of Literature", Mister Schopenhauer makes the case that Sterne's "The Life and Opinions of Tristram Shandy, Gentleman" was great and unique in that it treated of inner, over outer, worlds.
The entire book was digression.
Now I am not saying that The Life and Opinions of Anonymoses Hyperlincoln, Idler will reach to such heights, nor am I sure whether it will be inner or outer worlds that will become the lion's share of what the book beholds. Events right now are just too volatile, unpredictable. But knowing me, and my joy in entertaining new and exciting inner states, there will be ample opportunity for me to delve into more louche pleasures.
For example, there is a really good chance that a few of the players will get together and, well, delve into more louche pleasures. Harriet Hoover, in particular, seems ripe for plucking. But will it be Surreal McCoy, Jude Wren, or John Dark who take her there? And will she even act on these jaded urges that come, in waves, over her? Time will tell. But something tells me November is sure to see action in one arena or another. Who know? Maybe the world will end, and all louche pleasure bets will be off. Maybe Kerry will win, and the world will break out in celebration…thus giving rise to all manner of pleasures.
Too early to tell.
The Players get Restless
Lord knows I have tried to keep this story from unfolding, but frankly, the players are restless, and are begging me to splay them out before you. And even though I realize it may not be in my best interest, I also know that their contract demands that they each are seen as well as heard. One player, a deafmute, is, of course, exempt from the latter half of these conditions.

Mobiles Republic Announces "Smart News Recommendations" In an Attempt to Enhance Personalized News Discovery
Many of you may not have heard of Mobiles Republic, but you have probably heard of their award winning news app, Appy Geek. On Wednesday, they announced a new update to their News Republic app, bringing it to version 4.0. The update includes significant enhancements to their TagNav semantic language technology, which allows the app to learn about the user's reading habits as they read through articles and to instantly recommend related articles, which creates a more engaging and personalized news discovery experience for users. The reading habits do stay 100% private to the user, according to News Republic.
Black Friday 2017 Deals: Find Great Deals on Android Smartphones, TV's, Smart Speakers, Chromebooks and More.
"News Republic 4.0 is the news app for which the mobile media market has been waiting. Compared with other news apps, News Republic has defined its own genre – an intelligent mobile news syndication model, versus just a simple news aggregation." Said Kate Thorp, who is is an interactive digital media visionary and a board member of Mobiles Republic. She continued "News Republic is both an important partner for news organizations aiming to reach an expanded national and global audience, and also it has cracked the code on how to truly help readers stay informed, while avoiding information overload."
The app is completely free, and delivers and incredible value for users looking to consume news. It's providing an effective means to sort through the information clutter and stay informed on key topics of interest. Mobiles Republic has made it very easy to personalize, and it's amazingly including a deep and wide-ranging selection of fully licensed news sources, including your favorite Android news site Android Headlines. Including International politics, local news, technology, sports, and entertainment, all in one app. This is way ahead of most other news apps that just stick to reading an RSS feed.
News Republic 4.0 brings other changes besides the "Smart News Recommendations". It also brings interest symbols that inform readers of personally relevant articles, as well as "one feed" with breaking news on the users' own personal topics of interest, and an enhanced layout and design that improve the enjoyment of reading, rating of articles, and integration with social media.
The changes to News Republic in version 4 really have me excited, and I'm definitely going to be checking it out once it's available on the Play Store. For those that use iOS devices, it's also on the App Store.

NY Governor favors anti-Tesla legislation
NY Governor favors anti-Tesla legislation
Eventually all these politicians will face the backlash from this. Mark Ruffalo was quick to jump on the story, good for him.
So incredibly stupid. Who hasn't had a bad experience at a dealership? How can politicians push this BS and not expect voter backlash? Perhaps they think most voters are asleep at the wheel?
Dear attorneys for constitution law / interstate commerce, if you are on this forum, can you help articulate if those laws that force consumers to buy new products only through members of an association is constitutional?
If Elon hasn't brought a suit, does it mean chances are this is all legal? Would love to see it go to the supreme court
They can force you to buy insurance, they can force you to do just about anything.
Tesla can't stop the NY legislature from voting on legislation, but nothing is going to happen in NY until April after the budget is passed. If the anti-Tesla bill passes and the Governor signs it, then legal action can start.
The thing is Governor Cuomo is a car nut. Hopefully, someone in upper management is planning on giving his honor a test drive. I think that would make quite a better argument than going through the courts.
Elections have consequences.
Not saying anything you all don't know but these dealer associations pump a lot of money into these political campaigns and their votes are bought and paid for long before Tesla came along.
If Apple can do it and many of the items bought on the internet come straight from the factory, why don't they have to play by the same rules?
Need to educate some of these politicians not only in NY but several states that are trying to block Tesla. TEXASS
@par3duke You hit it on the head. The Senate Republican leader is Dean Skelos from Rockville Center, NY. I don't think there's an auto brand that isn't represented in Rockville Center. I live in his district and though I've contacted his office about this I don't think there's any pressure the citizens can apply that will make an impression.
Tesla should contact him, ask if he is interested in TM putting their Gigafactory in NY. When he replies yes, say, sorry we meant to call a Tesla friendly State.
He can fight the future, but he will soon be in the past.
Governor Cuomo is hardly stuck in the past. His dynamic approach and efforts to make gay marriage legal shows he wants to stay ahead of history.
He's also pro EV as this proves http://www.governor.ny.gov/press/09062013-benefits-of-electric-vehicles-nys
He simply needs the argument to be presented in a palatable form. I believe Tesla is capable of doing this.
Don't count on a mass uprising of car buyers in NY (or Texas, or Ohio) in opposition to anti-Tesla legislation. A scuffle between a California billionaire and millionaire car dealers in NY isn't going to motivate Joe Sixpack in Far Rockaway. Neither will he care much if $100,000 cars are sold at a dealership or at a company store.
Tesla Motors should play the lobbying and PR game for only so long. If state after state bans TM's business model, then no more Mr. Nice Guy. It's time to use the legal heavy artillery. State dealer-protection laws are vulnerable to constitutional challenge, if TM is just willing to litigate.
How about a class action lawsuit on behalf of prospective car buyers who have been damaged by their inability to buy directly from Tesla due to these state laws interfering with constitutional interstate commerce?
Captain_Zap, you are so right. On this thread you see so many come to the defense of the this Governor, and try to blame Tesla.
jt, your support of the Governor is sad.. Most of us are Tesla enthusiasts.
Thanks goodness I live in New Jersey.
Sort of sorry to see this becoming a bunch of political comments and screeds. I spend enough time writing and reading political blogs to have been finding this forum sort of a breath of fresh air. Is that changing?
"Elections have consequences," someone up there said. Well, yes. But is this about political party or is it about, as most have pointed out, the power of lobbyists? Would a governor of a different political persuasion have been less influenced? What would be the evidence for that? Other than having saved the American auto industry, I mean.
I'd rather read, in this thread, about the arguments being made in favor of those anti-Tesla laws, so I could understand them. What I know about them doesn't make sense, from the point of view of consumers. How do legislators justify their votes?
Shouldn't have posted that. Used to being able to edit or delete after shooting off my mouth.
Elections have consequences. There is one coming up. http://news.yahoo.com/republican-unveils-bid-challenge-york-governor-cuo...
NY: First Bloomberg, now Cuomo. This is clearly driven by the traditional ICE Car Companies, who are puppeted by the Oil companies. I hate the oil companies, I hate Politicians, and this is EXACTLY why I boycott New York. It is full of corrupt slaves.
Elon, you are my hero. Keep it up, and don't let the Oil Company "Slaves" get you down. Press forward. Look how many partial "hybrids" have come out since Tesla launched. I gaurantee you that if Tesla had not entered the game, there would be a lot fewer Volts, Leafs, and all sorts of other crap cars designed to make consumers "think" that they are getting "more".
Knew I liked you for a reason-I grew up in Oceanside.
Still Grinning ;-)
I try to avoid the political threads, but back in the day, I had a job with the governor's dad when he was governor and I used to play basketball with Andrew's brother, Chris. I had a good impression of the family. That's not to say politics doesn't end up compromising people, I just would give him the benefit of the doubt based on personal history. I tried to find the source of this "news" and the best I came up with was third or forth hand...
"Deborah Dorman, president of the Eastern New York Coalition of Auto Dealers, was at that meeting and said Tuesday Cuomo aides told the group the governor would sign the bill if it passes."
Andrew has been proactive in this regard...
" The dealers say the bill doesn't target EV companies unfairly and just asks them to play by the same rules as everyone else,"
OK, how about this for playing by the same rules: Let other manufacturers set up their own sales channels, if they want. Free the consumer from the restraints imposed by the dealership mandate, a mandate that flies in the face of the free commerce policies this country is supposed to stand for.
Yeah, like that's going to happen - slaughter the politicians' cash cow? I don't think so.
"Restrain of trade" is a phrase that comes to mind constantly when I read about this issue. Is this not corruption?
The dealers are very afraid that the major companies will try to undercut them and try to do what Tesla is doing. The NADA can say all they want, that the laws in place are to protect the consumer. Which is true, but it's not you and I that are the consumer, it's them, the dealers. That is what the original law was designed to do. To protect the dealers being under sold by the factory. However, Tesla doesn't have any dealers to undercut. So why would the dealers really care..... Again, they don't want the majors to follow suit.
@ SeattleSid: "I'd rather read, in this thread, about the arguments being made in favor of those anti-Tesla laws, so I could understand them. What I know about them doesn't make sense, from the point of view of consumers. How do legislators justify their votes?"
Justifying something to the voters is easy. Unless it's something egregiously dishonest or immoral, all it usually takes is the standard boilerplate soundbite for whatever situation. Most people don't have the time or energy or interest to expect anything else or investigate further.
But I suspect it'd be a lot harder for a politician to justify his vote to an infuriated businessman or lobbyist, who has given him X hundred-thousand dollars in campaign contributions, played Y number of golf games with him at the top course in the state, introduced him to Z dozen other influential deep-pocketed friends, and expects a return on his investment.
SeattleSid | March 5, 2014 new
How do legislators justify their votes?
They generally don't until they have to fudge them in the next campaign. Until then, disobey the whip at your peril.
Politics is organized crime, especially in a sclerotic state like NY. Sometimes it looks like Cuomo tries to do the right thing, but he is a product of the system.
I guess they could "level the playing field" by forcing MS owners to change their oil every 6K miles, carry around 15-25 gallons of explosive liquids, and belch pollution and CO2 into the atmosphere. The "dealers" could install pollution emitters and CO2 bottles to do that, since they wouldnt have to bother with oil changes, anti-freeze/coolant flush and fill, plugs, timing belts, valve adjustments, oil filters, air filters, mufflers, cat converters, etc. You'll never go wrong overestimating the small-mindedness and parochial interests pursued by politicians responding to the sound of closing wallets among their contributors..
@Mel I'm not going to apologize for my support of Governor Cuomo. His position on Tesla has been reported but might not be accurate. Besides, just because I might ultimately be disappointed with him on this one issue that doesn't mean he no longer deserves my support. I don't turn my back on people simply because I disagree with them. Do you?

@PapaSmurf. Hilarious. They say that the reason New Yorkers are the way they are is because the light at the end of the tunnel is NJ.
Traditionalism is so boring! All these complaints about "this is not the way we do things" and "What about this old way" is just annoying. People have a choice. they can walk into a dealership and deal with all of that crap. Or they can walk inside of a "design studio" and be in direct contact (more or less) with the car they want built for them. Why can't everyone just exist and work together? Did they forget that most people can't afford a Tesla? So it's not like they're going to be lining up and camping outside. So annoyed with the "way things have always been".
@jtodman - I have your back.
I an VERY involved in NY politics. I saw the article and sent to the appropriate people for clarification. Governor Cuomo is extremely pro-electric. See NYSERDA program to encourage EV's.
I drove my Tesla to a reception at the Governors mansion recently. I was in DC the past few days for another conference. Of course, I drove the Tesla. MS60 by the way.
Nothing is happening on this front until after the budget April 1. Then an appropriate course of action can be devised. Right now, the spin from the dealers is that no dealers means no jobs. Not true.
The Republicans in NYS are anti-regulation, so I do not see them going for it.
just another reason to move to Fairfield county!
@kenj It's possiblle you know my daughter. Send me an email.
It may be chance to sell tsla now and buy after the bill ?
Why isn't there a petition drive going on for this?
Someone started another White House petition, which is failing because the first one didn't go anywhere. However, here we have a chance to influence state politics and at a local level. Someone who lives in NY and understands the issues should draft a petition at moveon.org, creedo or any number of other sites, get a lot of signatures, and deliver those to the desk of the governor.
The White House will do nothing, the feds have no authority here unless they sue states and take them to the supreme court. Our best shot is to curtail these laws where they start - in the state legislatures.
Right on, Brian H: the spectacle of elected people heading home and denying they voted a certain way, even condemning those votes as if it wasn't them, is high comedy and low tragedy rolled into one.
jt, I still like you. It is just this particular thread that I have a disagreement with you and the Governor.
I know you have been a great contributor to this forum. I hope you can see how I think Tesla should have the right to sell cars in N.Y. I singled you out for criticism because you are respected by all of us on this forum .
@Mel I singled you out for criticism because you are respected by all of us on this forum. Perhaps I should introduce you to modernjewels.
All I'm saying is that for a Progressive Democrat governor Cuomo has shown himself to be refreshingly conservative when dealing with some of the economic issues the state faces. If he signs this bill, I'll be surprised and very disappointed, but I'll understand that all politicians, if they want to retain power must sometimes bend to the power brokers.
jt, is modern jewels a critic of you and the Governor?..
Good news in Washington State: http://seattletimes.com/html/businesstechnology/2023062637_apxxgrtesla.h...
Hopefully, Condotta will be defeated in the next election. Sid nice info.
Making Tesla the only direct seller is a band-aid. Condotta is right.
The report was that "if" the legislation gets to his desk .... maybe he knows something you do not.
Why have a battle when you do not need to. People should be talking to the legislators so it never there is no bill to sign.
Brian H, I reread the article, you are correct. Condotta is one of the few that know what is going on.
This is the land of the free and free enterprise, or so we are told.
It doesn't really matter what the politicians think the voters will do when they are due to get re-elected, all they see is the green the dealers are waving in their faces. I read they have 700 million to spend on this, and like the saying goes, "Money Talks", and that says do as I say, and not as I do.

BBC DJ Liz Kershaw slams Cilla Black tributes and compares them to honouring Jimmy Savile
BBC DJ Liz Kershaw yesterday blasted celebrities who paid tribute to Cilla Black and compared it to honouring TV paedophile Jimmy Savile.
The Radio 6 presenter, 57, shocked listeners when she tweeted her "disgust" at stars "trotting out tributes" for national treasure Cilla.
And the award-winning DJ branded journalists reporting on the Scouse legend's death "lazy".
The bigmouth blonde said: "When Savile died I was aghast and disgusted at celebs who knew him, yet trotted out tributes for their own publicity.
"Here we go again. Seems Free Speech has died. Cilla loved Liverpool so much she lived in Surrey and Spain."
Mentioning the famous Liverpool club where Cilla found fame, she added: "Lazy media using The Cavern Club as a backdrop.
"It was bulldozed in the 70s! This is just a theme park!"
"Here we go again. Seems Free Speech has died. Cilla loved Liverpool so much she lived in Surrey and Spain"Liz Kershaw
One shocked listener, who asked to remain nameless, said: "I know Liz has spent her whole career being mouthy and having controversial views about stuff.
"But this felt just one step too far. Comparing Cilla to Jimmy Savile is just sick."
Liz, who in her 30-year career with the BBC has presented on Radio 1, 4 and 5, continued her vendetta.
She urged her 2,579 Twitter followers to donate their money to homeless charities instead of honouring the Blind Date host's memory.
In Spain Cilla's eldest son Robert Willis, 45, was yesterday spotted with his brothers Ben, 41, and Jack, 35, taking in floral tributes left outside the star's villa.

Johannesburg - Processing of the public protector's reports on lease deals for police buildings is about to be completed, President Jacob Zuma said on Monday."I have been interacting with them and we are almost at the end of the process," he said during a business breakfast in Sandton, organised by The New Age newspaper and SABC.He had been corresponding with both national police commissioner General Bheki Cele and Public Works Minister Gwen Mahlangu-Nkabinde since he received the reports."People expect that I should jump and say implement it (the protector's recommendations). That is not how government works. There is due process that has to be followed."This is not an easy process. I have to be clear and convinced."A letter had been sent to Cele asking why he should not be suspended, he said.Public Protector Thuli Madonsela had compiled reports on the leasing of police buildings in Pretoria and Durban and handed them to Zuma.Madonsela's first report, released in February, was on the R500m lease for the Sanlam-Middestad building in Pretoria.The second report examined the R1.1bn agreement to lease Transnet Tower in Durban.Madonsela found that the department of public works had deviated from the tender process, that the lease agreements were not at the market rate, and that businessman Roux Shabangu had allegedly pressured officials to finalise the deals.She called on Zuma to take action against Mahlangu-Nkabinde, Cele and senior officials involved in the deals.Zuma said he had followed due process after receiving the reports.
He processes slower than a 486 computer.. Time for an upgrade... Or new operating system...
Every time I read about Zuma "processing" the report I think of the Spur advert with the judge that goes "I have digested all the available evidence...".
I'm just waiting for JZ to finish and go "Burger, I no declare you free my man!"
and when he is finished he will just do what he wants and clear them with no real explanation...just like moegoe moegoe
Floppy read error: Abort, retry or ignore?
The word processor is permanently jammed,stuck... actually it's beyond repair..time to upgrade.
@War Dog - Is that a Flappy or a Floppy read error?
Speed kills your friend Sbu told you, JZ - so take your time JZ, you'll arrive one day!
Thulie Madonsela was spitefull....she did'nt put any pictures in the report....eish!
4 MEG Ram DOS. No, DOS is too fast - Win Vista on 4 Meg Ram.
Zuma is still waiting for someone in the anc to expalin the report to him. He actually does not know what to do, he does not want his chom in jail.
"This is not an easy process. I have to be clear and convinced."
Oohh JZ
Mr President ,suspend or fire this woman if the anc recall you then we will know whos promoting anarchy in this country
Eish he is "a ply ing ees mind"!!!!
It should be just passed the digestive systme and almost full blown crap when it comes out!
He is probably looking where to redeploy them?
South africa will never move forward with such " Pentium 1" Type ogf president
He dreams of Pentium 1 processing power - 286 with 512k ram more like
Why Pentium 1? You are obviously not old enough to know about the 8086 and the 80286 - man the latter was fast compared to this oke's reading ability. But then he never passed Std 6 .............
Zuma is stillllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllll processing lease reports
We need to give our beloved President more time to do most things. Remember he is not well educated, and therefore does not have the benefit of starting from a higher base. Just another reason we should strive for better quality education, and not a higher pass rate.
AT FALCON - Because he is a crook and a fraudster and the people that vote for him think he is the greatest..this is how he got to run the country and trust me not by brains because there is none
Zuma has no interest in serving the people or seeing justice done. He is only intereste in protecting his back. He has failed the people and will go down in history as a President who allowed the weakening of the constitution and turned a blind eye (perhaps encouraged) to corruption of state institutions. He has been a collasal failure that has cost South Africa dearly and done irrepairable harm.
The "process" report that will NEVER happen...go slower Mr Zuma and then by the time you wake up and decide something it will all be forgotten
Just passed go.... travelling @ 100kms
applying his mind and now processing ,i hope he doesnt hurt himself
In countries that work, any leader with stench of CORRUPTION is kicked out IMMEDIATELY ... thats why we are failing !!
Has he now surpassed "applying his mind"?
Processing time is slow when you read with your index finger word for word.
"This is not an easy process. I have to be clear and convinced."
Duh, you dont trust the Public Prosecuter that you appointed, haha have you ever seen something as doff as this?
Windows JZ
1 day remaining... no wait
2 days remaining...
5 minutes remaining..
100 days remaining...
and then "5 seconds remaining" remaining for the remainder of the f-knows-how-long-anymore" process
1.1 billion will build 5 blocs of ofices and tax-payers can pay back loan from a bank over next 20 years like all others whith bond on there property but think of generations to come who will not pay rent on public property.Public property shoud belong to public not rented from sharks who call them self bussnisman.
"I have been interacting with them and we are almost at the end of the process". What is this man doing here ? These are reports..... not humans !!
"This is not an easy process. I have to be clear and convinced."
In otherwords you need to decide whether or not to nail one of your comrades and wodnering what dirt he could bring up to land you in the brown stuff. Damn it must be hard not having a clear concience to make decisions.
Where did these people go to school? How is it that a person can sign a legal rental agreement for R500million for a building that firstly the person does not own at the time of signing the contract. Secondly the building could have been built brand new from scratch for R150million. Thirdly the building was never inspected, is supbstandard, not equipped, will need a fortune spent on it to make it habitable and usable (another tender coming).
This is a joke and our president does not see that he is loosing any credibility he may have had but not acting harshly on the perpetraitors of this fraud.
You dont ask the police chief why he should not be suspended or fired. You fire him to retain the credibility of the overall police force. Same goes for the idiot police chief with the ilegal number plates and unlicenced BMW. Maybe an investigation into where the funds came from to purchase the car will reveal why it was never registered in the first place. Damn you MFs are corrupt.
A shongololo will be faster
Why all the red tape and officialism. He was corresponding with the public works minister and General Cele. How about just saying hey! you, be here at eleven minutes past one or else.( or else you stay in your job)Surely closed circuit TV connected to all the heroes can be made available or even a pay-as-you-go cellphone. Don't give them ideas it could cost the taxpayer dearly. But on the other hand the longer it takes to do something the better it looks to the piet public.
You guys must remember he must first learn to spell and then to read and then to understand what he read and THEN will he still be in the dark!!!
Just totally frigging incompetent...nothing else...!
If he processors this report the same way as he reads in public - this could take awhile. As he only reads 3 words per minute.
People expect that I should jump and say implement it (the protector's recommendations). That is not how government works. There is due process that has to be followed.
riiight - too bad same "process" dosn;t apply to the secrecy act!
Moer hulle Zuma, moer hulle. Moenie laat hulle jou se nie. Jy is die lanie!!!!

In October, we passed an unsettling milestone: the 50th anniversary of the Cuban Missile Crisis, a terrifying 13 days in which President John F. Kennedy steered the nation off the cusp of a thermonuclear war through tense negotiations with Soviet Premier Nikita Krushchev, whose nation had hidden missile sites in Cuba.
"People who were old enough … remember [the crisis] clearly; they want to tell you where they were and what they were doing while these events were unfolding," says Stacey Bredhoff, curator of the National Archives' exhibit "To the Brink: JFK and the Cuban Missile Crisis."
Documents, footage and artifacts from the period tell the story from the U.S. perspective. There's an emphasis on daily discussions Kennedy and his advisers held as they navigated the situation — which were recorded secretly by Kennedy. Portions of the audio play in loops around the exhibit, creating an element of immediacy. "You can actually hear the tension growing," Bredhoff says.
The Photo: Americans React to the President's Speech
This image, shot at a California department store by photographer Ralph Crane for Time & Life Pictures, is one of the first things visitors see when they enter "To the Brink." It depicts President Kennedy briefing the nation on the Cuban Missile Crisis on Oct. 22, 1962. "We don't know very much about" who's in the photo because it isn't part of the Archives' collections, Bredhoff says. But then again, "you can read the faces of the people, and that kind of tells you everything you need to know: just how shocking it was."
Kennedy delivered his speech (which was kept under wraps until right before its broadcast) live at 7 p.m. Eastern Time, beginning with a somber "Good evening, my fellow citizens." He went on to explain that the government had discovered the construction of Soviet missile sites in Cuba, and he called upon Krushchev to "halt and eliminate this clandestine, reckless and provocative threat to world peace." The broadcast "took the country by surprise," Bredhoff says. "And this was the first time the Soviet Union learned that people in the U.S. were aware of what was happening in Cuba."National Archives, Constitution Avenue between 7th and 9th streets NW; free, 10 a.m.-5:30 p.m. (Archives)

"I could not be happier with my new toilet."
"I have been interested in owning a Envirolet Composting toilet since I was 17 …"
Emily in Minnesota shows us persistence pays off. She sent us some great shots of her Envirolet® Composting Toilet. She also sent some of the kindest words we have ever received.
I have been interested in owning a Envirolet Composting toilet since I was 17 and saw the ad in the back of Mother Earth News. I begged my mom but never succeeded in getting her to purchase one.
Finally at 27 I am a proud owner of my very own Envirolet. I live in a small camper trailor on an organic farm in Minnesota. I did not want to stink up my living quarters by using the toilet inside. I was surfing the net and found a website called "Twin Cities Free Market", folks post stuff they do not want in hopes that someone will come and pick it up. Everything posted is free! A wonderful woman, posted an Envirolet and she chose me to be the new owner! She said she received 57 emails in response to her post. She loved her envirolet but, was moving to Mexico and could not transport it with her.
I could not be happier with my new toilet. I put it behind the trailor and every morning put on my rubber boots and house coat and admire my surroundings while using the Envirolet. I installed a gravity water system next to it so, I have everything but a shower at my trailor.
Thanks for the wonderful design! I will have it until I move to Mexico!"

North Branch, MN
Please note that this system is installed in a slightly modfied manner. Please consult us before making any modifications to your installation.
