Waggener Edstrom just promoted Jen Houston to the new role of president, Studio D and global lead.
Houston was previously senior vice president, and will continue to lead Studio D, the agency's digital division, which has expanded from 37 full-time employees in July 2008 to 132 employees today. Houston has been with Waggener Edstrom since 1999.
PRNewser caught up with her today for an exclusive interview on her new position and much more.
How will your new role as president differ from your previous role as SVP?
The most important change is that we are bringing on what was formerly the research and measurement and product development teams into Studio D. So it broadens our pillars, which are experience design, content management, digital influence, narratives and branding and consulting. Adding the insight and analysis group to this explains how the breadth of the organization expanded with this role.
As part of this as well, I am on the board now at Waggener Edstrom. We think about digital broadly as not a stand alone but as part of all the strategic communications we do. I'm not only a change agent, but my job is to help Waggener Edstrom invent and envision what the future of communications looks like.
Studio D has recently hired executives from The Wall Street Journal, MySpace and HP. How have these "internal" practitioners adjusted to agency life?
One of the things I look for in all hires is a sense of curiosity and business acumen. These guys are playing the role of change agent, but also learning the discipline of communications and PR. We're learning from both sides. Both Dave Patton [hired from the WSJ] and Tac Anderson [hired from HP] have mentioned that to me individually, about how much they bring and how much they have learned.
You mention Patton, who Studio D brought on as "editor-in-chief." Many agencies are doubling down on content creation. What kinds of digital content are clients asking for most these days?
There are a couple of piece parts. First is how is content traveling, how content needs to change to be effective on channels. It's no longer a linear narrative with a client story, it's almost a neural network of content.
I may stumbled into tweet, see a video, read a story in The Wall Street Journal or a trade publication. There are lots of different steps on my journey to fall into that content story.
The second part is how do I become a media property myself. How do I bring incredible stories that happen within my company to an external audience. We are having a lot of conversations with people about how they build a traditional newsroom. Not as competitive of traditional media but as an aggregators, and extenders of those stories. That is what gets really exciting, the way we can tell those stories. it's not shrinking, it's expansive.
Your team recently built the website for The New York Times' Nicholas Kristof, for his book Half the Sky with Sheryl WuDunn. What were Kristof's goals in terms of this digital presence?
One of the things we realized really quickly was that they have a tremendous opportunity to really start a movement. It wasn't just a book. If you read them, you know that's where they're passion is.
The goal for the site was to give a platform, it was not about "buy a book," but invited audiences to come in to become part of a movement. It's a very simple site, but pulled out stories and made them live and interesting, and made it so audiences wanted to find out more and participate.
Does the current fuss about Facebook's privacy issues really matter, or is this something we will all forget about a few months from now?
I'm a mom of three teenagers and one nine-year-old, and privacy continues across the board to be a key issue. Privacy doesn't go away. I don't think it's about a Facebook privacy issue or not, it's how do we as users of these channels think about our data as bits and pieces of who we are. We have to make decisions about what we will share and how we share.
How do you balance being profitable as a division with counseling other divisions of Waggener Edstrom on digital?
Waggener Edstrom's model is very much an integrated approach. We see emerging channels and how to harness them over time can better be practiced within the account team. We think about audience first and then surround that audience with all the channels available to us. We go into clients that way. It's not "we have to pull in our digital guys here."
For us it hasn't been a stumbling block. One of our key attributes at Waggener Edstrom is collaboration. We build that so that, one, we have futurist on staff that can be ahead of the client and two, our account staff are equally ready and efficient as anyone on Studio D. I think you see that in our rapid growth as well.
Is Studio D looking to make any acquisitions in 2010, or are you focused on organic growth?
We are constantly asking ourselves the age old business question: build, partner or buy? It is my hope that all of my colleagues in the communications industry are asking themselves the same thing. When Studio D was formed two and half years ago, and prior to that, Pam Edstrom said with a straight face, "I want you to build the future of communications. Find out who the right partners are, and what the organic strategy is."
We are constantly evaluating what's right. To date talent acquisition is the right thing to do, but partner strategy is equally powerful, as is potentially a buying strategy.
If you had $100 million to make acquisitions, who would you buy and why?
I would first start with what is the strategy and where are the areas that are under-served from business perspective. An area most interesting to me is the "proving ROI" on communications spend. So my real area of focus would be the evolution of the future of measurement. Companies like the Postranks of the world, and a variety of social media tools. I really believe that is the future.
The questions I get every time I go and speak is, "Tell me how I prove this, tell me how I how there is a value and benefit in the work I'm doing." We need to move from output to outcomes and I don't think anyone has figured that out yet. Expect to hear more from Waggener Edstrom in that space.
Lets say I'm the CMO of a Fortune 500 company looking to hire a digital agency. What would you tell me to help guide my search?
The first thing I would tell you is there is no such thing as a social media guru. I really believe that. I think that the guidance I'd give is to look to a set of companies that start first with outcomes you want to drive, instead of output. Then think about the audiences that you need to reach, and then think about communications objective against the business opportunities and audiences.
There are a lot of people still asking the question, saying, "We need a social strategy," or a "Twitter strategy" and you're going to fall down doing that.

"Green IT" can only work if you have a combined approach of optimization on all levels. Knowing how to get the most out of the components you are using is a must.

Database optimizations
Many websites these days are database driven, so a badly configured database installation has direct impact on the performance of a site. A properly configured database means less resources are wasted. In this article we will highlight a few things we have encountered in the past.
Overhead in MySQL databases
As we said in an earlier article about quick and dirty MySQL optimizations keeping your databases tidy is good for performance. With the script in that article you can get rid of the cruft that can accumulate in the database. But cleaning out the attic is not the only optimization that is possible. For example, it won't help with two common performance issues: the amount of database connections and the use of an index on a database.
MySQL database connections
Once we got a cold call from a company who had a severe performance issue and they needed a "Linux nerd" to solve it and one of their employees remembered us from our university days. Their new website had just gone live and was getting a lot of traffic, but the website was incredibly slow most of the time, but once a request "got through" it was very quick. The load on the servers was averaging 0.00 so there had to be some bottleneck, but they didn't know where. A quick look at the MySQL settings learned that the amount of database connections was way lower than the amount of hits they were getting. We set it to 25 times as much and restarted MySQL, and the performance issues were gone.
Using an index on MySQL databases
MySQL allows you to set one or more indexes on one or more database columns. Without an index you would have to search through all rows in a database table every time you make a query. With an index you sacrifice some diskspace for a massive speedup. The wikipedia article about database indexes nicely explains the background.
There are plenty of websites where the database is small enough to make searches without an index bearable, but it makes it hard to scale to bigger databases, or to more sites. We always try to pick the right indexes on our databases when setting up new sites. So far we seem to doing quite OK.
Don't use a database
The best way to prevent that a database is the bottleneck is to not use a database when it is not necessary.
There are many sites that use a database to dynamically generate a page, even when this is completely not necessary, because the content of the page is always the same. If this is the case you can use a templating engine such as smarty to generate pages, write them to a cache and serve them statically. The database is only used during the generation process, but not when serving the pages. For us this has worked really well. Of course, there are plenty of pages where dynamic content is needed and we still need a database for that. But, when we don't have to use a database, we won't.

If everything you're doing is clean, then you should probably use the telephone and try to find out exactly what conduct they see as improper, before they do terminate you. I think this is the number you want: (800) 761-1072

FYI you can't call them at that number, their network quality department can only be accessed by email. Good Luck fighting this, they are very ignorant, but just ask for the evidence. They usually will have their proof to back it up.

Tully, Thursday at 10 a.m. during a ceremony held at the Aids to Navigation Team Jacksonville, Fla. Engle took on the responsibilities as the Officer in Charge of the ANT in 1999. He will go on to take the duties as the executive petty officer on board the Coast Guard Cutter Maria Bray homeported in Mayport, Fla. Tully's previous assignment was the Officer in Charge of the Aids to Navigation Team San Diego, Calif. Tully and his crew of 18 will be responsible for more than 1,100 aids to navigations from Tybee, Ga., to Ponce de Leon Inlet, Fla., including more than 150 miles of shoreline along the St. Johns River. ANT Jacksonville also maintains the St. Simons Island, Ga., Amelia Island, Fla., and St. Johns, Fla., lighthouses while assisting with the maintenance of the Ponce De Leon Inlet lighthouse. Lt. Cmdr. Mark Wilbert, commanding officer of Group Mayport, Fla., will be the presiding official for this ceremony. The change of command ceremony is a time-honored tradition of the military services, which demonstrates publicly to the officers and enlisted personnel of the unit that the authority of the command has passed from one individual to another. It is a formal ritual conducted before the assembled crew. The change of command of a military unit is unique in today's world because it signifies the acceptance and transfer of total responsibility, authority and accountability for all actions of the command from one person to another.

make sure the truck is cleaned out it is turned in. when i was checking to make sure i had everything out of it i found trash behind the seats that was from the previous renters. also they should provide a list of places near your destination to turn in the truck. i had to go like 30 miles out of my way to turn in the truck and lost an hour from work by not being able to turn the truck in around the corner from where i work.

Unanswered: DTS Help Needed Splitting Fields
I am upgrading an old Access application to a new VB.Net Windows application that still uses an Access database to store data. I have a large DTS procedure that imports/transforms the data for me. I'm having a problem because the old app had the field City/State/Zip and the new app has 3 seperate fields. How can I modify my DTS procedure to split these fields up? In the old app, there is a delimeter of / to work with but I don't know how I can write this into the procedure. Can anyone help here?

I have encountered this problem numerous times when converting or modifying an existing database. I used to resolve the issue using a normal query and then using the built in functions of InStr, Left, Mid and Right if necessary to separate the data into separate fields. (These are calculated fields in the query.) The original data was entered as LastName,FirstName MI (middle initial was optional)
Once I was certain the query returned the correct results, I changed the query to an update query and updated the new table fields.
The examples I have below show what I did when a database did not have separate fields for Last Name and First Name and the delimiter was a comma. I didn't need to use the Right function in this case as I did not need the middle initial but you should be able to see my logic here.
Calculated fields in regular query:
Locate Comma: InStr([app_name],",") 'locates how many characters from the left is the comma.
Last name: Left([app_name],[locate comma]-1) 'populates the last name field and removes the comma
Locate Space: InStr([locate comma]+1,[app_name]," ") 'locates how many characters from the left between comma and next word
WordLength: ([locate space]-[locate comma]) 'determines how many characters to actually return
First Name: Mid([app_name],[locate comma]+1,[wordLength]-1) 'populates first name field and removes trailing space
Now for the bad news. These calculated querys do not work in Access 2002 or 2003. The functions of InStr, Left, Right and Mid only work in VBA.
This necessitates either opening the database in a format that supports it and fixing the problem there before converting the database or writing a VBA procedure to loop through all of the records and separate the data. (When working with an existing prior version, my preference is to use the version the database was created in to fix problems like this and then start from scratch on a new database and import only those tables, queries, forms etc... that I need.
Hope this helps

Thanks for your reply. It is interesting to know about the issue of Access 2002+. The database that I am working from was created with Access 2002. I ended up creating a simple VB.Net application to transform the data. Your code was very helpful when I needed to transform the location fields. Thank you.

Died: July 16, 1911
The funeral of W. W. Scott was held yesterday afternoon from the Presbyterian church in charge of Rev. L. M. Wiles of the Christian church. The beautiful burial service of the I. O. O. F. of which order Mr. Scott was for many years an active member, was also given at the church by the officers and members of Burlington Lodge No. 29. There was a large attendance and the service was an impressive one. There were many lovely floral offerings. The internment was in Graceland cemetery, the pall bearers being J. M. Lane, Henry Ela, L. R. Grimes, H. B. Cheney, W. H. Dinsmore and J. R. South.
William Walter Scott was born in New York City, April 11, 1843, and when a young man came west teaming across the plains of Kansas, to the mountains of Colorado. He was working as a teamster when the war broke out, when he returned to Kansas and enlisted in the 5th Kansas cavalry, the company in which many Burlington men served. At the end of his enlistment, he re-enlisted, or "veteraned" as the old soldiers called it, and served for some time in the regular army. After being discharged from the army he came to Burlington and located in the Union Hall neighborhood east of town. He was married there December 24, 1870 to Miss Adella Graves, her father a U.B. minister, officiating. To this union were born three daughters, Eva, Abbie and Ethel. Eva, who married to O. O. Outcalt, died about ten years ago. Abbie, who married B. F. Greene, is here for the funeral. Ethel is now Mrs. O. E. Erickson and she has been here helping care for her father considerable of the time lately. Mr. Scott has been in poor health for about three years and for more than a year has been practically an invalid, being confined to his home most of the time. After trying various means to obtain relief he went to the hospital at Kansas City last week, realizing that it was his only chance and that it was not a real good chance. Before going he made arrangements with Mr. Sanders, the undertaker, in case he did not recover. He died Sunday evening of pneumonia after having been operated upon. His body was brought home Monday night.
W. W. Scott was for many years prominent in Coffey county affairs. He served two terms as sheriff and a number of terms as undersheriff. He also served as city assessor for a number of years and held other offices. When in his prime he knew practically every man in the county and almost all of them were his friends. As an officer he was faithful to his duty and in friendship he was always true. He was a member of the G. A. R., I. O. O. F., and M. W. A.
To the widow, who is worn out with the loving care she always gave Mr. Scott during his long illness, and to the two daughters, the sympathy of the entire community is extended.

WATCH: Disabled man plays music with his EYES - and is so good he's joined an orchestra
A PROMISING musician who suffers from a severe form of cerebral palsy has stunned music experts with an incredible recital on the ground bass - using only his eyes.
Bradley Warwick, 21, refused to let his disability get in the way of his music dreams – and has now been invited to join a complete orchestra.
Mr Warwick has been passionate about music since he was young but feared that his disability would prevent him from turning it into a career.
But incredible technology means the inspirational musician can play beautiful bass solos by just changing where he stares.
He was introduced to the groundbreaking software two years ago named EyeKeys, which monitors his gaze and plays' the keys it detects he is looking at.
He tried out the software at auditions earlier this year and stunned the judges, who gave him a place in the South West Open Youth Orchestra, Britain's first disabled-led regional youth orchestra.
He also uses the technology to speak and even send emails.
Bradley Warwick refused to let his disability get in the way of his music dreams
Mr Warwick said: "I was thrilled to be selected for the South-West Open Youth Orchestra.
"I'm hoping to make a career with my music.
"The orchestra has got lots of exciting plans, including a high profile concert in Bristol next year as part of the Fast Forward festival.
"I enjoy playing ground bass, using my computer and being part of an orchestra is very exciting.
EyeKeys monitors his gaze and plays' the keys it detects he is looking at
"Music makes me relax and feel happy inside. The words of songs and the music remind me of those special people in my heart.
"Orchestras are very important to me as it gives me the opportunity to perform with others. It enables me to get out and meet new people who also love music.
"I would love to make a career with music, so I hope this will all help."
He is currently studying at St Martin's College in Stroud, Gloucestershire, which is a specialist young adult centre.
He also uses the technology to speak and even send emails
The incredible tech means the inspirational musician can play beautiful bass just by his gaze
Jean Bankhead, acting vice-principal of education at the college, said: "Bradley needs a lot of help with his personal care, eating and drinking.
"But he can use his EyeGaze computer to talk and communicate. He also uses it to do other things like make word documents and powerpoints and send texts and emails.
"His social understanding is just like anybody but he has difficulties because of his condition.
"Music is his great passion. He took part in a BBC Music Day earlier this year, where he played with members of the British Para Orchestra.
"I think it might be one of his ambitions to join that one day."

I am thinking about purchasing a Nexus One to start until the G2 comes out since I am on T-Mobile, do you guys feel the G2 would be worth to spend the money on when it releases???

Birthday bits
So it was my BFF Katie's Birthday party yesterday. I went as Minnie Mouse but don't have a full length pic of my outfit. Just the ears I made! I'm so proud of them. I want to wear them all the time! I'm feeling a tad vile today though. Was up most of the night being sick. I forgot to feed my tummy before filling it with vodka. :-(.
Here's me and my ears:
(Not topless, just wearing strapless top. Airing my sunburn!)
Money is a bit non-existent in the world of Gem, so I made Katie's gifts. I made her some Chocolate chip brownies and decorated a little box to put them in. And made her a friendship bracelet and put it in a <3 shaped box with confetti in. Hehe. No expense spared! I think DIY gifts are nicer anyway, more personal :-)
The party was a lot of fun. Hopefully I'll be able to post a pic of my outfit when everyone else uploads their pics on Facebook (Yuck. Hate Facebook) because I didn't take many pics.
Gossip Girl in 15 mins!! Hooray!

With the rise of fake news and click bait, it can be hard to find a trustworthy news source on the internet. Corporate ownership of media networks throws another wrench into the process. Traditional media is often distracted from real reporting by advertising quotas and profit margins. Are non-profit news organizations a better alternative?
In general, non-profit organizations are funded by grants and donations. A for-profit news organization is mostly dependent on advertising revenue. This seemingly unimportant difference in structure can greatly alter an organization's editorial decisions.
For-profit news outlets can fall prey to click bait and posting viral videos. These organizations tend to focus more on views and clicks rather than producing quality reporting. The more views their website has, the more money they can earn from advertising. Sometimes excellent journalism gets a fair amount of views and shares, but that isn't the norm.
Because non-profits are funded by grants and donations, editors can focus more on producing quality work than maximizing revenue.
Non-profit news organizations are much less focused on their views. While it does matter that people are reading and engaging with their content, attracting more and more eyeballs is not the main goal. Many non-profit news organizations were founded with the intention of expanding in-depth journalism. Others receive grants to cover a specific topic.
But because non-profits are funded by grants and donations, editors can focus more on producing quality work than maximizing revenue. This structure tends to favor quality journalism over viral content. However, non-profits tend to have a much smaller staff than their for-profit counterparts.
The classic example of a non-profit news outlet is National Public Radio, or NPR. Most of its funding comes from donations, but it does receive a small grant from the government. Other examples of non-profit news are Pro Publica, the Associated Press, Voice of San Diego, The Texas Tribune and Watchdog.org. The fastest and easiest way to determine if a news site is non-profit is its URL. Non-profits typically use the ".org" ending. You can also check their "about" page. Fair Observer is a non-profit, but it uses a ".com" URL.
However, not all for-profit news organizations are terrible. Many of them also produce quality journalism. The New York Times is an example of this. While it does sell advertising space on its website, the newspaper also depends heavily on subscriptions from its readers. While the Times has a long history of hard-hitting journalism, the news operation is also insulated economically from producing more click-bait pieces. The same goes for The Wall Street Journal. Surprisingly, Buzzfeed News has a robust and decent news gathering operation too.
Non-profit news organizations are less inclined to create and post click bait, but for-profit news outlets also have plenty of opportunities to produce quality journalism. It all depends on where you look.

Whether you loved or hated Suicide Squad, there's one thing you can't deny: the finished film bore little relation to the trailers. In fact, a lot of scenes from the trailer didn't even make it past the editing room floor, much to the frustration of the cast. To glean an idea of just how much footage was cut, take a look at the video below:
It seems that our new Joker bore the brunt of the cuts. Understandably, then, nobody seems more angry at Warner Bros.'s editing of #SuicideSquad than Jared Leto.
Last weekend, at Camp Mars, Leto gave full vent about his frustration. We don't have the actual quotes, but one fan on Tumblr summarized them:
"He was very honest about the film this weekend; his disappointment in what he's learned of the theatrical cut (he's still not seen the film); feeling sort of tricked into being a part of something that had been pitched to him very differently; thinking it would've been more artistic than what it became; feeling overwhelmed by the hate regarding the look and choices."
What's more, he also disclosed another thing that's frustrating him about his work with Warner Bros. He's a keen rock-climber, but - as part of his contract - he's forbidden to take part in dangerous activities like rock-climbing. Leto's response was startling:
"F*ck 'em!"
Although that specific quote seems to have been meant to be humorous, the fact remains that the actor seems openly furious with the studio. What's going on..?
What Happened?
Jared Leto's Joker was a major part of the marketing campaign for Suicide Squad, and everyone was expecting him to play a major role in the film. Leto himself went to incredible lengths to get in-character; a believer in method acting, he delved deep into the character, and ensured that the film was always in the headlines! It's pretty clear that Leto was having a blast playing the part of the clown prince of crime, and was excited to see where the Joker's story went next.
Then things went badly wrong.
The critical backlash against Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice took Warner Bros. by surprise, and - with Suicide Squad almost completed - the studio panicked. If behind-the-scenes accounts are accurate, two versions of the film were shown to viewers in Northern California, and the final product was a mash-up of these.
Jared Leto's Joker was in the firing line, and his scenes were cut mercilessly. Defending the studio, co-star Margot Robbie - who plays Harley Quinn - explained:
"They probably realised that the emotional through-line of the story had to be the mission that we were on, and explaining the Enchantress' position and all that kind of stuff. And the [Harley and Joker] backstory stuff, though it's magic and some of the stuff we shot was insane, they are flashbacks...so there's a lot, but it just didn't make sense to confuse the present story line to incorporate all that."
A lot of fans suspect there's another reason, though. The relationship between Harley Quinn and the Joker is a dark and disturbing one, and putting this relationship at center-stage would have left the film open to cries of misogyny. Again, this fan-theory runs, the studio panicked.
Whatever the truth, the reality is that Jared Leto's scenes were reduced dramatically. In an interview with BBC1, Leto declared that "there's probably enough footage" to make a Joker movie.
What Are the Consequences?
So far, discussion about Suicide Squad has focused on the fact that critics were disappointed by the finished product, singling out the poor editing as a major problem for the film. Jared Leto's increasingly vocal fury is raising another problem; the more Warner Bros. meddles with the films, the more the studio risks losing the actors' goodwill.
Jared Leto is playing a major role in the #DCEU; there's a sense in which Suicide Squad was just a teaser, an introduction to a character who's surely destined to go head-to-head with Batman. The end of the film set up both the Suicide Squad sequel, and Margot Robbie's Harley-Quinn-focused movie; both are very likely to have a strong Joker presence in them. At this stage, though, one of the key actors for the future of the DCEU is clearly deeply unhappy.
It's safe to assume that Jared Leto is on a multi-picture deal, as Ryan Gosling passed on the role because he didn't want to commit to multiple films. Thus, Leto's likely to stick around for a while yet - he probably doesn't have much choice in the matter. That said, though, DC Film isn't planning so far ahead as Marvel Studios, largely because DC Film is still feeling its way. I doubt anybody's on the seven-or-nine-picture-deals you can find for major Marvel Studios actors; in the long run, Warner Bros. will be dependent on actors' goodwill in order to renegotiate. Jared Leto sounds as though he doesn't have much goodwill left for Warner Bros.
The comment about stipulations on 'dangerous activities' was most remarkable. Leto clearly accepted such stipulations, believing he'd be taking on a larger and more artistic role. Now, he feels as though he's been shafted, and the stipulations simply aren't worth it. Given what we've learned about Suicide Squad over the past couple of weeks, it's easy to see why Leto would feel this way. What's more, such open statements of contempt may incline DC Film toward recasting, which would certainly stir the pot!

It's clear that DC Film has some real problems. While the studio struggles to reorient itself after the critical response to both Batman V Superman and Suicide Squad, it risks alienating the actors on whom it will depend. I don't know what the next film featuring Jared Leto's Joker will be, but for the sake of the DCEU, it had better not be edited quite so mercilessly!
Do you sympathize with Jared Leto's frustrations? Let me know in the comments!

Dart SE, SXT, Rallye, and Limited models all come with the 2.0-liter engine standard, while the 1.4T is optional on all of those models; the 2.4-liter is standard on the R/T.
The 2013 Dodge Dart will have a six-speed manual as standard, a six-speed automatic with AutoStick manual control, and a six-speed dual-clutch automated manual transmission. The manual is Fiat-provided, while the new dual-clutch is a Chrysler Group unit. The dual-clutch unit will be reserved for the 1.4T, in a combination that we expect to approach or meet 40 mpg on the highway.
Also helping that highway mileage is a "world-class" coefficient of drag. The Dart is the first Dodge to use an active grille-shutter system, which stops airflow through the lower portion during warmup or at highway speeds, opening them when more cooling is needed. And the underside of the Dart is covered in black-composite panels to aid aerodynamics and block road noise, too.
2013 Dodge Dart
2013 Dodge DartEnlarge Photo
Inside, the Dart has been designed to fit 'American-sized' occupants—read, a very wide range—including the Chrysler Group's 6'-7" head of interior design, Klaus Busse, who we noted can fit in the back without contortion. Chrysler already claims best-in-class hip and shoulder room, as well as an "exceptionally spacious, pleasing interior."
An available "racetrack" lighting theme—what was teased early on in some special-release images[—provides a lit border outlining the 'floating island bezel' that contains gauges, audio, and climate controls. The glovebox is designed to fit an iPad, while the center console contains auxiliary jacks alongside storage spaces for smartphones and smaller electronics. There are also center-console side-storage pockets good for notebooks, pens, or phones. And in many trims, the cushion of the front passenger seat flips up to offer 'hidden' storage beneath.
The TFT instrument cluster, which all versions of the Dart get, can be reconfigured to display two analog displays or two digital displays, as well as other information through reconfigurable displays—which can be set differently for each driver via the keyfob. Throughout the lineup, Ruby Red LED accent lighting outlines audio and climate-control functions, as well as gauges (with LED rings).
The UConnect Touch system (the big screen in the middle of the dash) includes an 8.4-inch display—the largest touch-screen in this class—and it's offered in versions with or without navigation, as well as with or without voice command. Icons at the bottom of the screen include radio, personal audio, controls, climate, navigation, and phone, and menu functions are arranged in a way to logically group functions, and just as in MyFord Touch the display in front of the driver can show abbreviated info (turn-by-turn directions, for example). Premium navigation versions of UConnect Touch show SiriusXM Travel Link information, including fuel prices, movie times, weather, and sports updates.
Media-center functions of UConnect Touch include a USB port, an SD card reader, full iPod control, Gracenote music-database integration (for album artwork and track info), and the top Alpine premium audio system includes nine speakers and 506 watts.

Ten airbags are standard on every 2013 Dart, including front seat-mounted side airbags, rear outboard pelvic airbags, front driver and passenger knee bags, and side-curtain bags covering both rows. A parkView rear backup camera, ParkSense parking assist, Hill-start Assist, Rainy Brake Support, and Brake Assist are all standard as well, as are four-wheel disc brakes. Blind-spot monitoring and Rear Cross Path Detection are available, with the latter a class exclusive.

The production car that set the bar for industry standards, and what human engineering can achieve, has recently seen the assembly of its last unit. For more than a decade, the Bugatti Veyron stretched the limits of what had been thought possible for the manufacturing of a road-legal car, the company finally pulling the plug with the once-off farewell edition, the Veyron Grand Sport Vitesse aptly named "La Finale." This 1200bhp beauty (1184 to be exact), with a world record, top speed of 431.072kmh, was sold to a collector in the Middle East, although no official price has been revealed. Units for previous models sold in excess of $2m. While this may be the end of an era, Bugatti have confirmed it will usher in a successor to the Veyron in due course. You can watch the production assembly of the "La Finale" below.

is a multiplayer third-person shooter and tower defense video game. It is the third game in the Plants vs. Zombies series, developed by PopCap Games and published by Electronic Arts. The game was first announced for the Xbox 360 and Xbox One, but later it was reported that it will also be available for Microsoft Windows, PlayStation 3 and PlayStation 4.
The game features co-op along with competitive multiplayer modes, where players can control the zombies as well as plants. The game was launched on February 25, 2014 in North America, and on February 27 in Europe. The game was released for PlayStation platforms on August 19, 2014 in North America and August 21 in Europe.
The player can take control of their own plants or zombies from a third person perspective in either a cooperative or competitive multiplayer environment.
To progress in the game, players must complete challenges unique to each class. These challenges, once completed, will level up the character allowing the player to access features such as upgrades, new characters, weapon skins and character clothing. The game's challenge pop-ups closely resemble the notification system used on the Xbox One.
The Xbox One and PlayStation 4 versions feature split-screen multiplayer as well as Boss Mode, which is similar to Commander mode from Battlefield 4.
The game features a cooperative mode and four competitive multiplayer modes. Three different modified versions of the competitive modes also exist:
Garden Ops: A cooperative mode where up to four players take control of each of the plants defending a garden through ten zombie waves, with the fifth and tenth waves being boss waves.
Welcome Mat: A playlist consisting of Team Vanquish featuring one map and no customization. It is aimed towards new players but it is available regardless of rank.
Team Vanquish: A team deathmatch variant.
Vanquish Confirmed: A game mode where players must collect orbs from fallen opponents to receive credit. This mode shares the concept with the "Kill Confirmed" mode from the Call of Duty series.
Suburbination: A domination variant.
Gardens and Graveyards: A game mode where players either capture (as zombies) or defend (as plants) various objectives. It is a parody of the Conquest and Rush modes from the Battlefield series.
Gnome Bomb: A game mode where players attempt to secure a bomb (strapped to the back of a hapless gnome) and detonate at various bases. It is similar to Obliteration mode from Battlefield 4.
Classic Team Vanquish: Team Vanquish with no customization.
Classic Gardens and Graveyards: Gardens and Graveyards with no customization.
Mixed Mode: A playlist where each game mode is used interchangeably. It will be one mode with either zombies or plants. Then the next mode played right after will be the same mode along with the same map. However, the player will be using the opposite character team from before. Using the opposite character team does not happen all the time. After two matches of the same mode are complete, the other mode mentioned will do the same action as described. Before the "Tactical Taco Party Pack" update, this mode only supported Team Vanquish and Gardens and Graveyards, following it though, Gnome Bomb and Vanquish Confirmed were added.
Plants vs. Zombies: Garden Warfare has received mixed to generally positive reviews. GameZone's Lance Liebl gave the Xbox One version an 8.5/10, stating "Don't let the thought of a Plants vs. Zombies shooter scare you off; it actually is a really fun game. Yes it needs more game modes and split-screen play options, but everything else about the game shines." Hardcore Gamer's Steve Hannley gave the Xbox One version a 3.5/5, saying "The maps are well-designed, character classes are surprisingly well-balanced and there's a large amount of customization. Including only three modes however is a massive oversight that severely damages the replay value."

What they said on the bailout
As the announced it was to seek an international bail-out for from the Eu and IMF, here are some of the quotes from a day of political drama in Dublin.
- "I will be proposing to my colleagues that we should formally apply for a programme." - After a week where his government was accused of refusing to confirm a bail-out was on the cards, Finance Minister Brian Lenihan revealed he was about to ask Cabinet colleagues to apply for a rescue fund.
- "The Government today agreed to request financial support from the European Union and the Euro Area Members States. The IMF will also be requested to assist in the provision of support."- A Government statement officially later confirmed it had asked for an international bail-out for its crippled economy.
- "I confirm that the Government has today decided that Ireland apply for financial assistance to the European Union. The request of the Government was transmitted to the European authorities this evening. The European authorities have agreed to our request." - Ashen-faced Taoiseach Brian Cowen confirmed the Government will now negotiate the details of the deal.
- "We have passed control on the big fiscal issues out of Irish hands." - Labour Party representative Pat Rabbitte on the historic significance of the decision.
- "This evening's announcements allow the course of economic and financial policy to be set on a more secure path. We can be reassured that the Irish banking system retains the support, not only of the Central Bank of Ireland, but of the European Institutions." - Governor of the Central Bank Patrick Honohan predicts greater stability.
- "There are hard times up ahead. People have been very anxious over the last months... What I am trying to say at the minute, you know, don't be resigned into a kind of slough of despair." - Finance spokesman for Fine Gael, Michael Noonan.
- "The Government should resign so that citizens can have their say in a General Election." - Sinn Fein President Gerry Adams.
- "Elections now. Democracy now." - As Government ministers arrived for a crunch Cabinet meeting to agree the bailout, a protester shouts his demands before being removed by police.

Everyone in Zimbabwe knows something has to give.
Reginald Matchaba-Hove, a human rights advocate who is chairman of the ZimRights National Council, knows it when he says: ''The President? He's like a king.''
Mike Mutuare is head of the parliamentary committee trying to rewrite the Constitution of the white supremacist Rhodesian Government, which the current Government also uses to suppress dissent. Mr. Mutuare knows it, too. But he prays that change will come peacefully.
Morgan Tsvangirai, the country's most important union leader, knows it. But he does not expect change to be peaceful. He has been working behind a thick iron gate since eight thugs walked into his office after he led a general strike last December. Only his secretary's screams saved him from being beaten to death with his own coffee table.
And presumably President Robert Mugabe knows something has to give, although he emphatically denies it.
''There is no difficult period now in Zimbabwe,'' he said at an economic forum in May, ''except for economic problems related to downward price trends for minerals, and one or two disturbances because of upward trends in commodity prices. It's a passing phase. We keep the economy at a level where we know it is stable.''Continue reading the main story
In the last year, the Zimbabwe dollar has fallen 70 percent and inflation is nearing 40 percent. In a country where riots were rare, the police and demonstrators have clashed three times since December.
In nationwide riots over a 21 percent rise in the price of cornmeal, eight people were killed. Students emboldened by the protests against President Suharto in Indonesia marched on Parliament chanting, ''Suharto, Mugabe, Indonesia, Zimbabwe.'' The police dispersed them and closed the state university, which had not happened in 20 years.
More trouble is expected. The unions are threatening a five-day general strike. Food prices are artificially low because the Government has ordered producers not to raise them. They say they will go bankrupt, causing shortages. Gasoline prices are Africa's lowest, but the state, afraid of a 100 percent rise to market price, is spending millions to buy gasoline and sell it below cost.
Plans to seize 1,500 white-owned farms have stalled, but so have efforts to borrow money to buy farms for the poor.
The collapse of a large bank revealed that its founder had issued $45 million in unauthorized notes on a Government agency, which the state will probably have to honor. The banker, who is said to have made big loans to Cabinet officials, was stopped at the airport as he was going abroad under a false name, but the police were told to let him go.
Other ''black empowerment banks'' related to his are so weak that Government agencies ordered to do business with them are said by the Government press to be withdrawing their money every few days just to be sure it is still there. Low prices for tobacco and gold, and a 33 percent drop in the corn crop, are adding to the damage.
Mr. Mugabe's response to the crisis seems to be to treat it with increasing denial and disdain.
Within days of the food riots, all 54 members of his Cabinet got new Mercedes-Benzes to go with the Jeep Cherokees they get for visiting rural constituents. In the last two years, as President of the Organization of African Unity, the President made 40 trips abroad, and now he wants a bigger jet. The best argument for it is that it might curb his habit of stranding tourists by commandeering Air Zimbabwe planes. Tourism is the economy's one bright spot.
He flatly denies that corruption is a problem, despite business people's complaints that anyone wanting a Government contract has to go through his nephew, Leo Mugabe. He stripped one critic of his party rank and then denounced him as a witch.
The gleaming new reserve bank building is now snidely referred to as Bob's Takeaway. Since January, the Government has borrowed $450 million from it to pay debts -- ''essentially, just printing money,'' said a University of Zimbabwe economist, Tony Hawkins.
Real wages are down to 1960's levels. Foreign investment is down. Unemployment is 30 percent. The health budget is shrinking just as the United Nations has said that 25 percent of the country's adults are infected with the AIDS virus. Taxes are up, largely to pay off Mr. Mugabe's core constituency, angry veterans of the liberation war, whose pension fund was looted. Once they were paid, they stopped demonstrating against Mr. Mugabe and threatened to march on the Harare suburbs to beat up whites, blaming them for the general strikes.
The International Monetary Fund has forced some budget cuts in the military, but its specific demands are kept secret.
Despite calls for his resignation, Mr. Mugabe, 74, insists that ''I am still at the helm,'' and that thinking his party is in trouble ''is absolute nonsense.'' Elections are due in 2002, and although his party, which holds 147 of Parliament's 150 seats, is split, no real alternative has emerged yet.
Edison Zvogbo, a party power broker in Masvingo, is described as a rival. So is Mr. Tsvangirai, whose 400,000 unionists are demanding not just raises but a new constitution, lower taxes and consistent economic policy. But he deflects any questions about candidacy.
Another strike might force the governing party to oust Mr. Mugabe, Mr. Tsvangirai says. Otherwise, ''it can only respond with military force, and the military is still politicized by the liberation war.'' Troops would thus be less likely to shoot civilians.
Not everyone is so sanguine about the army, but Mike Auret, of the Catholic Commission for Justice and Peace, sees room for hope in two developments: factions in the Government have begun to negotiate seriously about a new constitution, and on land reform.
Yet because the world has not focused on Zimbabwe as it has on Indonesia -- and because protesters would hardly accept the 1,000 casualties that Indonesian crowds did -- Mr. Mugabe could keep making concessions and stay in office.
Angus Shaw, a longtime Zimbabwe reporter, compared his homeland to ''a guy with 16 bullets in him, but still alive, still staggering.''
''Zim has this amazing ability to teeter on,'' he said.Continue reading the main story

Posted by france9 (as ),
I went into the womens health unit for a procedure and I think that the staff were fantastic even though there were staff shortages. Thanks to the sister named Janet. She was caring, provided me with information and kept me informed all the way through my stay. Could have done with a few more auxilaries to keep the pressures off the nurses.

Washington Post Staff Writer

Charles Smith and John Perrone sat quietly together in U.S. District Court on Monday, each 18, pale and slender in powder-blue pants and smocks that looked like hospital scrubs. Authorities, worried about chemical contamination, had confiscated their clothing after arresting them Saturday on suspicion of manufacturing an esoteric LSD-like drug in a freshman dorm room at Georgetown University.
Both men, academic high-achievers from a tony Boston suburb, were ordered to remain behind bars for two more days. A third student, Smith's roommate, who was also arrested in the case, was released after authorities chose not to prosecute him.
In a court affidavit made public Monday, investigators said the alleged drug lab, involving several "highly flammable and explosive" chemicals, was the work of Smith, a freshman in the School of Foreign Service, and his high school classmate Perrone, a liberal arts freshman at the University of Richmond.
The two friends, each with tangled brown hair and not the faintest shadow of a facial whisker, live a mile apart in Andover, Mass., and graduated from Andover High School on the honor roll last spring. They spent Saturday and Sunday in the D.C. police department's central lockup.
Their attorneys said the two should be released on bail. But U.S. Magistrate Judge Deborah A. Robinson sided with prosecutors, who wanted them held in the D.C. jail until a detention hearing set for Wednesday. The two could be ordered back to jail after that hearing, which will involve police testimony about the alleged drug lab.
Neither student entered a plea Monday, and their attorneys declined to comment.
Investigators said Smith and Perrone used chemicals and other substances to make the hallucinogenic drug dimethyltryptamine, or DMT, in Smith's top-floor room in the nine-story Harbin Hall. Smith had been living in Room 926 of the freshman dorm since arriving at Georgetown on the last weekend of August.
On its Web site, the U.S. Drug Enforcement Administration says that "human experience with DMT probably goes back several hundred years, since DMT usage is associated with a number of shamanic practices and rituals." The substance occurs naturally in some plants. In 1931, a British chemist figured out how to produce it synthetically.
Officials described it as LSD for people in a hurry.
The final product is a crystal substance that can be ground into powder, and it is often snorted or mixed with marijuana and smoked. "The intense effects and short duration of action are attractive to individuals who want a psychedelic experience" but not the hours-long, mind-altering experience provided by LSD, according to the DEA. "Psychological effects include intense visual hallucinations, depersonalization, auditory distortions and an altered sense of time and body image."
A law enforcement official, speaking on the condition of anonymity because the investigation was continuing, said the lab had not been discovered because of an odor in the dorm, as was initially reported over the weekend.
The official said the case began to unfold early Saturday, when a campus police officer saw a student standing outside Harbin Hall smoking what the officer thought was marijuana. After being confronted, the student said the substance was "K2," or K2 summit, a product known as "synthetic marijuana" that is sold in head shops.
K2, which is legal in the District and other jurisdictions, is crushed green leaves sprayed with chemicals. When smoked, it produces a marijuana-like high.
When the officer asked where the student had obtained the substance, the student led the officer to Room 926, the official said. He said the investigation proceeded from there, resulting in the three arrests and the evacuation of about 400 people.
Smith's roommate, John Romano, 18, a liberal arts student from central Long Island, N.Y., answered the door when officers arrived, according to the affidavit, which says that police "received authorization to search" the room.
They found "zip locks containing a green plant substance, a carbon dioxide cannister, homemade smoking devices, a grinder, a jar containing a red liquid substance, and a Styrofoam cooler with dry ice and several jars containing a clear liquid substance," plus ammonia, salt, lighter fluid, rubber gloves and a turkey baster, the affidavit says.
Perrone, visiting from the University of Richmond, was in the room, authorities said.
The law enforcement official said that five small pill capsules containing suspected DMT were also found. He said users often hide DMT in ordinary capsules, then break them open and sprinkle the drug on marijuana before smoking it.
He said police think the carbon dioxide was being used for "huffing," a way to get high through oxygen-deprivation by breathing only carbon dioxide. He said officers suspected that the "green plant substance" was synthetic marijuana, for use with DMT.
The official said police searched Perrone's Nissan, parked outside the dorm, and found several empty capsules with traces of suspected DMT. He said officers also found a box made for a dozen Mason jars, with one jar in it. That jar matched the 11 Mason jars found in Smith's room, six of them filled with chemicals, the official said.
He said Smith told police Saturday that Romano, his roommate, was not involved in any illegal activity. Romano was taken into custody, but by Monday, authorities had decided not to prosecute him.
Smith and Perrone were each charged with one count of conspiracy to manufacture and possess with intent to distribute DMT.
A Georgetown official said Smith and Romano apparently met during freshman orientation in late August. Romano's attorney declined to comment on the case.
A hazmat team from the D.C. fire department spent hours examining the building Saturday before allowing students to return to their rooms. Julie Green Bataille, a Georgetown spokeswoman, said officials will decide Smith's future in a confidential proceeding governed by the university's code of conduct.
Staff researcher Magda Jean-Louis and staff writer Spencer S. Hsu contributed to this report.

After Endhiran looks like it's Raktha Charitra's turn to make the court rounds .Raktha Charitra 2 released last week has now stirred controversy after Konda Reddy, a relative of late Andhra Pradesh Chief Minister Y S Rajasekhar Reddy coming forward with his plea requesting the Andhra Pradesh High Court to stop showcasing the flick soon.
Konda Reddy supported his plea by stating that the late CM (Y S Rajasekhar Reddy) has been dragged into bad light as the character portrayed displays a lot of grey shades and director Ram Gopal Varma (Ramu) has deliberately made this move to defame the late Chief Minister. He further added that the movie will only tarnish the image of the great leader and adding grief to his family.
He also accused and expressed his discontent for the portrayal of Chief Minister NTR in Raktha Charitra 1(Shatrughan Sinha) as he mentioned the negative response it had generated among the general public.
We will have to wait and see how Ramu handles this case.

This is an overall great product especially for the price. It is difficult to comment on whether it is superior to other tables in the range, however, it is most definitely a popular choice with our customers! There is some very positive feedback of this table specifically focussing on the playing surface quality and build quality.
The weight of the table is approximately 53kg (116.8 llbs).
Would you like to add a review for this item?
A great value weather proof outdoor table tennis table. The playing surface has a durable feel, with a quality bounce, and the frame feels sturdy enough for gently wheeling about our cobbled driveway.
You will need to allow 2 to 3 hours to build it, but the instructions are reasonably clear. I managed it solo, but mounting the two halves of the table would definitely have been easier with a couple of people.
DO: Go through the instructions a couple of times, identify all the relevant parts, and gather the necessary tools before starting. Helpfully, if you squint carefully, you'll see all the fiddly little fixings are in numbered bags that correspond to the numbered diagrams in the instructions. I found it useful to empty each bag of bits into numbered margarine tubs before beginning the build.
DON'T: Be in any kind of rush!
The table is good, the assembly instructions poor. I had seen this from previous reviews but can't believe they would not invest the small amount to address this issue. It isn't that difficult to rewrite !!
Quite tricky to assemble. Instructions are not clear at all. Base is poor quality. Top is good.
there were 2 broken pieces which I sourced locally the instructions to put together were very poor
Strong and easy to erect and move with a great playing service. Definitely good value. Prompt delivery.
This is a good, full sized table. The only criticism is that it is INCREDIBLY difficult to assemble. Be prepared to spend hours, or pay for help.
Great table fairly easy to put together
Quality table but cuddly to put together and one of wheel bolts had no thread so had to bodge it with tape
Very good value for money
Delivery and customer service very good from Sweatband. The table is great but lacks castor wheels at both ends - only one end has them which make for tricky placement when storing in a confined space.
Well designed and robust but the instructions for assembly were obvious translations and difficult to follow. Very pleased with the outcome when I did assemble it correctly
Great quality playing surface. Bit of a fiddle to put together singlehanded, but fine in the end. Folds up quickly and easily when needed. Included bats are fine, balls slightly small, practice size. Net works ok, not the simplest to attach and remove, but good enough. For the price it is very impressive, aluminium top with "Made in Germany" exuding usual Kettler build quality. Not sure why you would pay more for one, I know axos are their budget brand and have avoided before (cross trainer, exercise bike have all been main stream kettler) but will happily buy axos stuff again... maybe a multigym.....
This is a great outdoor table tennis table. Build quality is good and the table itself has excellent bounce and once you have put it all together (not easy to do but I did it on my own) it is very easy to open and close for play and storage. Our 10 year old loves it.
This is a great quality table for the money. Originally priced at 350 GBP, I bought it in the flash sale for 250 GBP. For my first outdoor table it is very very good; though my only pet peeve with it is that just one set of wheels have 360 degrees ability - the others are fixed. This only presents a problem to me because I have a narrow path to navigate from playing area to storage area, but should not present a problem if you have better access routes. I would not pay 350 for this, as Sweatband have other sales where 600 GBP tables are half price; but this is certainly a first rate entry level table for the value I paid.
