Expert Reviews
2013 Honda Accord
The 2013 Accord represents the ninth generation of the nameplate. The 2013 Honda Accord has a new platform, engine, transmissions, suspension, bodywork, interior, electronics and safety equipment. It is appropriate it to call it a new car.
Reversing a common trend, the 2013 Honda Accord is smaller on the outside and, by total volume, smaller on the inside. However, dimensionally the cabin is bigger in every measure except front-seat hiproom. More important, it feels just as roomy as last year's model, and the trunk is significantly larger than before.
The 2013 Accord is offered in four-door sedan and two-door coupe versions. New iterations for 2013 include a Sport version of the four-cylinder sedan. (A plug-in hybrid PHEV is expected in early 2013 as a 2014 model.) For 2013, there are six trim levels for sedans and four for the coupe. Both coupe and sedan offer a choice of two engines and three transmissions.
A new four-cylinder engine has more usable power and is paired with a continuously variable automatic transmission or a 6-speed manual transmission. Fuel economy ratings are very competitive. The V6 engine is mildly revised from 2012 and available with a new 6-speed automatic or, on Coupe only, a 6-speed manual. The 2013 Accord V6 sedan EPA 34 mpg Highway rating matches that of the 2012 Accord four-cylinder, an impressive achievement.
The new 2013 Accord interior is as functional as before but more user friendly, especially on top-line models. It has room for four adults, five in a pinch, a new suite of telematics and electronic applications, and a longer slate of standard equipment. We find the cabin more visually appealing than before and can't imagine anything a mid-size sedan buyer needs that the 2013 Accord doesn't offer at some level.
On the road the 2013 Accord is quiet and controlled, a blend of isolation from annoyances that some drivers prefer with road manners other drivers prefer. It isn't about being the fastest in a straight line or flattest around the corners but rather being well-rounded and doing everything better than average.
We find the new wrapper far more attractive than the last one. It's neither as dramatic as some nor as bland as others, Honda preferring proven middle ground to extreme. The 2013 Accord has advanced in crash safety and, given the performance of the sister-car Acura TL, is expected to get top safety scores.
This ninth-generation Accord will not dominate the market it and the Camry battled over for decades because there are now many more viable competitors. Accord offers a coupe that Camry no longer does. The Ford Fusion may take the design mantle away from the Hyundai Sonata and Kia Optima, but Hyundai has a Genesis Coupe to compete with Accord. The Nissan Altima lineup includes a coupe, and the Altima sedan is new for 2013 and touts excellent EPA ratings, as does the roomy Volkswagen Passat TDI introduced for 2012. The Chevrolet Malibu is new for 2013, and a new Mazda 6 is expected for 2013. Drivers who want more space, performance or features might also look to a Nissan Maxima or Toyota Avalon. The choices in the family sedan segment are bigger and broader than ever and car buyers are the winners.

Walk Around
The 2013 Accord is clearly better looking than the 2012 model, in our opinion. It still blends curves, creases and angles, now in a more cohesive shape; it's also incrementally lower, wider and three inches shorter.
Honda has always favored slender pillars, lots of glass and a low hoodline for good visibility, and amongst the growing trend to make four-door sedans resemble coupes this generous window area is refreshing. Where the window line on many cars extends from the top of the hood to the top of the trunk, the Accord's runs more from the headlight cut-line to the top of the tail lights. This yields not only a credible sedan profile but also adds to the airy cabin spaciousness and proper rear-seat headroom. From overhead the center section is mildly barrel-shaped, the widest point where front and rear doors meet appearing pointed relative the smooth lines of the roof above it.
There's a mild forward tilt to the profile, enhanced by the scalloped front door panels and raked headlight housings. Viewed from behind, the front wheel opening is inset above the sill and shows some tire, an image we associate more with sports cars than family sedans: It adds to appeal though we didn't get to see any potential dirtying effect it will have in rain or snow. Rear doors look like long-wheelbase versions of some sedans, with an almost flat section at the top and opening that runs straight from the door sill to the window kink popularized by BMW and Hofmeister about half a century past.
The coupe is nicely proportioned and like the sedan uses a higher than average roofline over the back seat for better-than-normal rear seat room. Unlike the sedan the tail lights do not extend into the trunk lid, and the chrome lower molding is much wider. Also unlike the sedan, the rear reflectors are vertically oriented and the tail pipes are semi-inset in a deeper bumper; you actually see fewer mechanical parts from behind the coupe than from behind the sedan.
Up front the dual-bar horizontal grille is all Honda, with a more stylish lower half. A more attractive honeycomb lower grille and chrome strip at the bottom edge are handsome without being edgy. Coupes get a more pronounced center section, honeycomb grilles top and bottom, and round fog lights in squared openings for more attitude; it's the same width as the sedan, just an inch lower. On V6 models the daytime running lights are LED, and the Touring sedan uses LED for low-beam headlights as well.
The PHEV model has unique front styling. The headlight housings and upper grille get blue accents, the hood, bumper and fog light apertures are different, and a black bar bisects the big single grille opening as on many Audis. To our eyes all the black trim is a bit much on anything other than a black car, though only three colors are offered. The wheels are also gloss-black, with forward-climbing metal spokes, a sinister look more rapper than tree-hugger. A very obvious blue-ringed, Hybrid-badged charging port in the left-front fender is at odds with the square fuel door at the back; we prefer the Chevrolet Volt's approach of one discrete opening on each side.
At the rear a chrome strip across the trunk and clear backup/signal lenses separate trunk lid and rear window from the back of the car, the end result reminiscent of a Hyundai Genesis. A small lip spoiler on the Accord PHEV and Sport versions can be added to others. Sport and V6 models get dual exhaust outlets, all have a chrome bottom strip to complement the front, and the rear quarters are reasonably square even if you can't see the edges from the driver's seat. On EX-L and higher trims, the brake- and taillights are LED.
On models with the Lane Watch function, the passenger-side mirror is deeper than the driver's to accommodate a small camera, lending a small imbalance viewed from a distance. (Cars from Mercedes and other manufacturers have done this in the past, also.) We like symmetry on sedans and would prefer the same mirrors.
All Accords have alloy wheels of 16 to 18 inches in diameter. Most handsome are the 18s used on some coupes and the Sport sedan, and just the wheel upgrade, small rear spoiler and dual exhaust outlets make the car much more attractive in our eyes.
Accord's cabin is comfortable, functional, and attractive. It is amongst the quietest mid-size sedans on the road, high-line models are easier to operate than before and it offers plenty of variations in price and features.
Front seats proved comfortable and supportive, not at all flat and spongy; adjustability degrees vary by manual or power, driver or passenger. With a tilt/telescoping steering wheel anyone should find a good driving position. There is plenty of room. Some slender types wished the door wasn't so far away though few will complain about reaching the seat adjusters with the door closed. Footwells are wide and headroom is fine, even with a sunroof. The only complaint came from a tall rider who found thigh support lacking because the cushion wasn't far from the floor and the passenger's footwall seems closer than the driver's.
We put a pair of 6-foot-plus guys in the back seat and there were no complaints, even with a moonroof. There are AC vents in the center console (EX or better), assist handles and a fold-down armrest. With the small floor hump, minimal headrest lift and higher seat cushion the center position is best for child seats. We did not see any rear-seat reading lights or a trunk pass-through, and the seatback folds only as one piece, not split 1/3-2/3 as in some cars.
Assembly quality appears good. We found no sharp edges on plastic moldings around door pockets or seat tracks, no flimsy hardware. High-gloss woodgrain trim has been replaced by matte finishes, gathered leather by tauter perforated upholstery. The upper door panels are soft-touch only on the back half, which visually splits the upper in two and some may construe as cost-cutting. Sport and EX-L cars get a leather-wrapped version of the nicely dimensioned 3-spoke steering wheel, with shift buttons on Sport CVT. Dash trim may be a vertically oriented dark woodgrain, metallic mesh, or a sparkly black, but all have a big chrome ring around the cupholder.
A single-piece dashboard is dominated by a huge speedometer the average patrolman can read from his car. It's flanked by a partial corona that changes color to green the more economically you drive, giving a Christmas-light effect against the red gauge markings on Sport and Coupe. We could not figure out how to turn it off, even if ECON mode was not engaged.
PHEV gets a unique instrument panel. Surrounding the corona-ring big speedometer are bar-graph indications for fuel and battery charge level, and the power/recharge scale. The display in the center offers powertrain modes, economy guide that moves a car within a circle for better or worse fuel efficiency, the requisite green leaves, turn-by-trun navigation, active cruise control and so on.
Engine revs, temperature and fuel level flank the speedo; the digital center gives instant fuel economy, trip odo, exterior temperature, gear and so on. Stalk controls are simple, the interval wiper setting still industry-best, and the steering wheel switches quick to master. A few switches such as the ECON button, traction-off and lane-departure warning are less convenient left of the wheel, and do-it-yourselfers and tire technicians will appreciate the tire-warning reset switch on the dash.
All Accords have a central dash screen and back-up camera. Without navigation the audio and information controls are just below that screen between two. The dual-temperature climate controls are grouped below that. On cars with navigation the area beneath the screen becomes touch-screen audio with a volume knob, while the nav/phone/info controls move below climate control, replacing a storage bin on lesser cars. Although further from the screen those controls are closer to shifter and the whole arrangement is far superior to the overwhelming mishmash on the 2008-2012 model.
A smaller exterior shrank total cabin volume by 3 percent from 2012 but smarter packaging brings more room in almost every aspect and a larger trunk. Only front seat hiproom is down, by one inch, which shouldn't be an issue.
Cabin storage is good, with bins in the console, all doors, and a decent glovebox.
The trunk offers very competitive 15.8 cubic feet of space, a temporary spare tire but room for the flat you take off under the floor, grocery bag hooks in the rear corners and a pull-lever to release the rear seat back: That opening for large, awkward items isn't as large as in many competitors.
Driving Impressions
All Accords deliver a comfortable ride and a reassuring confidence they can handle any situation. The one to four-mpg bump in fuel economy ratings comes with no loss in performance and they are nicer to drive than the last two generations of Accord. The first sense that proves different on a 2013 from a 2012 is control effort; the steering and pedals take less effort and the cabin controls are much simpler to decipher.
The new four-cylinder engine is the same as the old one in size only. It has direct injection now but without the ticking idle noise many such engines make, and it idles smoother than many big fours. It doesn't encourage winding it to redline as the predecessor did, and you don't need to.
At 185 horsepower, the 2.4-liter four-cylinder has 8 more horsepower than the old LX and 7 less than any of the others, but it makes the power 600 rpm lower in the rev band. More important, torque is up by 20 lb-ft, again lower in the rev band, giving the car more usable power. The Sport model gets 4 hp and 1 lb-ft more torque because of dual tailpipes; you'll hear more difference than you feel. The Sport also adds shift paddles to the steering wheel, like some Coupes, on the CVT version.
Fuel economy ratings: The 2013 Honda Accord 2.4-liter CVT is EPA-rated at 27/36 mpg or 24/34 mpg City/Highway with the 6-speed manual transmission.
Adding an extra gear to the manual transmission and keeping the base model lighter than last year improves acceleration and fuel economy. The shifter and clutch action have Honda's characteristic light, crisp action. Since the mpg is up, a smaller fuel tank saves weight while maintaining cruising range; a theoretical 600-plus miles on the highway.
The CVT that replaces last year's 5-speed automatic provides shorter gearing for acceleration and taller gearing for highway cruising. By using only what engine power is needed to move the car and not climb through gears, the CVT improves the EPA City mileage rating by 4 mpg and makes less noise. If you use the shifter's S position rather than D it revs higher sooner for better motivation, and slows better on long grades or braking for a corner. As there are no separate gears, there are no 1, 2, or OD-off settings.
The V6 engine isn't changed quite as much and power is similar to that of the 2012 version. However, switching to a 6-speed automatic nets the same performance and economy benefits, and the new V6 gets the same 34-mpg highway EPA Highway rating as the 2012 four-cylinder sedan. Fuel economy for the 2013 Accord 3.5-liter V6 is an EPA-estimated 21/34 mpg with 6-speed automatic or 18/28 mpg with 6-speed manual. Regular gasoline is recommended for all models. The Accord V6 Combined city/highway fuel economy rating of 25 mpg matches or betters V6 competitors.
The 6-speed automatic has only Drive and Sport positions for forward motion. Drive works as normal; Sport upshifts later and downshifts for grades or braking, but it takes a while to learn exactly when it will downshift without surprising you.
A V6 6-speed manual is offered only on the Coupe, and mileage doesn't match the sedan because that engine does not use Variable Cylinder Management. VCM switches off the front half of the V6 engine when little power is needed, the V6 sedan often cruising level ground with economy like a 1.75-liter three-cylinder but without the vibration or roughness.
For its sleeker profile the Coupe gives up rear seat room, access, and the trunk is about the same size that of the 2012 Accord sedan. Manual-gearbox V6s are a favorite of Accord speed-freaks but their rarity caused the last generation to occasionally garner a premium price at dealers who had them.
Meanwhile, active noise cancellation works like your noise canceling headphones to minimize annoying mechanical racket and it is standard on all Accords. Also contributing to reduced noise and vibration is electric-assist steering. This has light effort but doesn't feel artificially light nor elastic or floaty as some on long sweeping bends. Response to the helm is quick, and it's not rubbery just off center when you begin to turn or make minor corrections.
The Accord Sport model features firmer shock, spring and antiroll bar rates but these are subtle changes and not big whacks. Steering effort is higher than with the other models, a combination of the fatter 235/45R18 tires and tuning of the power assist, and it needs another 1.5 feet of space for a U-turn. There's no detriment in ride comfort. We're not sure we would opt for the Sport, though we admit the other Honda in our garage would be an S2000 sports car rather than a Pilot or Odyssey. In fact, while the V6 manual coupe is clearly the fastest Accord, an Accord Sport sedan's lighter front end and slightly better balance might be our choice for a 70-mph world.
In back-to-back drives in Accord, Camry, Sonata and Altima four-cylinder models, the Accord felt the most refined. It didn't feel as light and lively as the Altima but rode better, especially on rough roads. A Camry V6 felt just as quick as an EX-L V6 but didn't have some of the Honda's feature set.
Brief drives in the PHEV plug-in Hybrid delivered 105 mpg (according to the trip computer) over an 11-mile loop, with no attempt at hyper-miling and got going effortlessly. The PHEV will operate as a pure electric, as a gas-electric hybrid, or with the gas engine connected directly to the drive wheels. Honda's early estimate put electric-only range at 10-15 miles, with another 8 miles available after 30 minutes on a 240-volt charger. The transitions between alternate propulsion modes were quite smooth, especially given the car is still in development, and brake feel allows smooth stops.
Outward visibility is very good. Slim pillars at the windshield and between the doors block little of the view; they do not hide an entire car adjacent or oncoming like some GM sedans. The articulated rearview mirror mount and tall windshield means no ducking to see overhead lights or working around the mirror for uphill right turns like interstate on-ramps. Only Subaru and VW come to mind as equally easy to see out of. On higher-trim Accords the rearview camera becomes multi-angle and all left-side mirrors have a wide-angle element.
The LaneWatch feature shows a camera image of the lanes to the right in the center dash. It can be set to on, off, or on with the right signal. With the signal is most sensible (if you use them) but note if the control beep is enabled it beeps each time the signal/image goes on and off, and sitting at a traffic light with the signal on ties the screen up at a good time to be fiddling with things while you're not moving.
Road noise is well controlled, and we tried both 17- and 18-inch wheels on some poor road surfaces. Engine noise is muted until you go to maximum acceleration, wherein a pleasing mechanical growl enters the cabin. We did notice wind noise at highway speeds, primarily around the pillar between front and rear doors.
What we like about the 2013 Accord is the subtle execution. It doesn't reset the bar with edgy styling at the cost of rear-seat room. Fuel economy was a priority yet performance is more than adequate and better than that of the previous versions. The new Accord takes up less space outside but has a more comfortable cabin and larger trunk. There are more options in entertainment and telematics and the man-machine interface is much easier to use. Tradeoffs and compromises are hard to find where they exist at all, so the Accord will remain a favorite in family sedans.

Take a look at this teaser for the BMW M235i and notice how it's being driven. You could call it "quickly." It's fairly standard for launch films like this, especially BMW. But a group in Australia has complained that BMW basically broke every traffic law in the book with the ad.
GoAuto reports that Australia's Advertising Standards Board has upheld a complaint against BMW over a 45-second version of this ad recently shown at movie theaters, and edited featuring the parts where the car is basically at the redline and driving around the LA River (oh yeah, the was clearly shot in parts of Southern California).
The complaint says the ad is full of "hoon activity." I'm guessing no one from this site filed it.
BMW Australia has dismissed the complaint and says it was all editing. However, they also said it was never shown driving above the speed limit, so it should all be OK. Yeah, but...
Still, I can't quite wrap my mind around the complaint here. It's very clear this is a professional doing the driving as part of a closed shoot. I'm just happy someone got to enjoy a rear-drive BMW while being sideways.

Education programs at two Washington state prisons are helping inmates develop new skills that better prepare them for the modern workforce.
Education in prison is changing. An economy that is increasingly dependent on technology-based careers has caused many prisoners to put down the blowtorch and pick up a keyboard mouse. In the northwestern-most corner of Washington state, a contract with a local community college is providing cutting-edge education programs to inmates, enabled by modern technology. In some cases, inmates who had never used a computer before are now coding, using resources provided on a local network loaded with much of the educational content found online.
The Clallam Bay Corrections Center (CBCC) and Olympic Corrections Center offer inmates courses in baking, computer game design and development, green building carpentry, horticulture, and small business entrepreneurship, among others.
Such programs reduce recidivism rates among offenders by 43 percent, according to an analysis conducted by the RAND Corp. The courses were also found to increase the likelihood of an inmate finding a job outside prison by 13 percent. A study by the Washington State Institute for Public Policy found that the benefits of reduced crime and reduced recidivism allow for a return of more than $13 per dollar invested in vocational programs, adult basic education and post-secondary education in prison.
The most important element of prison education, which is increasingly enabled by modern technology, is that offenders can leave prison with hope, feeling like they have options, said Brian Walsh, education director for Clallam Bay and Olympic corrections centers.
"These guys get this experience and it helps them change how they see themselves," Walsh said. "They learn they can be creative. To run a bakery, you have to be able to work with other people, and they can see that their time in prison can be positive and that it's not just a waste of time and that's the key thing."
The food at the prison is, naturally, terrible, Walsh said, but their bakery creates delicious pastries and is believed to be one of the only bakeries on the Olympic peninsula that makes challah, a traditional Jewish bread. In true Northwest fashion, the inmates grind their own flour, grown at a local organic farm, and the rye bread loaves and various pastries the prisoners make are sold at an organic co-op outside the prison. The idea, Walsh said, is to boost the inmates' self-esteem by showing them that they can be constructive and create something of value, and that includes not just engaging in practices as old as bread, but also doing things as new as making computer games.
Traditionally, when people think of vocational prison programs, they think of welding or woodworking. While welders are still in high demand, Walsh said there's an increasing demand for technology-based jobs, too. Many inmates choose game design and development because the game design industry is big in the Northwest.
"Most games are essentially a really fancy database with a visual laid over it, so you learn a lot more about software than if you were just to teach website design," Walsh said. "We had an inmate who had never used a computer in his life. He'd been down for 15 years, and he's now doing three-dimensional design work using Blender, which is open source software. When you give somebody that opportunity and they really want to learn, they'll learn it."
The local prison intranet provides prisoners with access to many tools reflective of a changing education system outside of prison. Online courses offered by well respected institutions like MIT, Harvard, and Berkeley through edX are changing how the country looks at education. Prisoners at the Clallam Bay Corrections Center and Olympic Corrections Center are allowed access to many such tools, including a reduced set of Khan Academy lectures and lessons, courses from the National Repository of Open Resources, and additional resources from the Corrections Offline Educational Platform.
Most of Walsh's students have a lot of free time outside of the classroom and they're constantly asking for more things to do, he said. For this reason, Walsh said he hopes to soon obtain low-cost tablets that will support a flipped classroom model in which students listen to lectures outside of class and get personalized help and do work inside of class. This is particularly helpful for a prison setting, Walsh said, because everyone is at a different level in their education.
One inmate who had not graduated high school was able to get his GED after following the lectures and activities provided by Khan Academy, Walsh said, and more inmates could follow suit if they had the ability to study outside the classroom.
In the game design and development classes, students learn programming languages like C# and C++ and participate in weekly challenges like designing computer games using the Unity game development platform. One creation was a zombie game and the other was a side-scrolling adventure game.
Another student, who ran a paintball business before being incarcerated, learned Web design and SQL. He created a paintball site from scratch with social media elements and appointment scheduling. "He went from knowing nothing to making what I think looks like a professional website," Walsh said, adding that he could potentially sell the product he made to other businesses.
In a blog post published on WhiteHouse.gov, Walsh, a former White House Champion of Change for his efforts at the correctional facilties, wrote about his students. "I like to tell people that we have some of the best students imaginable. They do all their homework, even the questions that aren't assigned. They don't interrupt class with their cellphone. They come to class wanting to be there and knowing that it is the best opportunity they have in prison for a quiet, meaningful way to serve their sentence."

Last time I made Twinkies, we went over the Walking Dead and all that stuff about post-apocalyptic food… like Twinkies themselves.
I mean, they're pretty much a super food with their long shelf-life powers and magical qualities.
Okay, so technically they *supposedly* don't live too long. Or so they want you to think. I'm sure Twinkies will outlive us all. Thankfully with the whole world-ending/not-actually–ending mishap, we didn't need to find out if a snack cake could withstand the pressures of the world collapsing onto itself or whatever those pesky Mayans/Doomsday Preppers believed.
So in celebration of the world not ending but Twinkies' world ending (RIP Hostess), I decided to revive my fave golden snack cake into an adorable truffle for the new age, er, year.
You may be thinking, "but if Hostess is out of business, how do you suppose I make truffles out of Twinkies?" and you'd be right, my smart-brained friend. However, there are several other brands around that carry identical snack-cakes and they're pretty easy to find, so just head to your nearest Target or Walmart, find your knock-off snack-cakes, and proceed to spend an outrageous amount of money on other things like cool socks, new books, photo props and that sweater on clearance that you decided is kinda cute after all, in a it's-only-7-dollars-kinda way.
You ready to rock and roll Twinkie-Truffle style?
- 1 box Twinkies (about 10 snack cakes)
- 1 pkg white Candiquik or almond bark
- Yellow food coloring
- First, line a cookie sheet with foil and set aside. Unwrap all of the Twinkies and place them in a large bowl. Using clean hands, begin crumbling/smashing the Twinkies into a fine crumb--the mixture will be moist and will come together in a ball. Incorporate any loose crumbs if needed.
- Using a cookie dough scoop, roll the truffles into Tablespoon-sized balls. Place on the cookie sheet and freeze for about 20 minutes.
- In a medium bowl, melt ¾ of the package of white chocolate bark until smooth. Stir in a drop of yellow food coloring and stir until the chocolate is pale yellow.
- Drop the truffles into the melted chocolate and coat completely; remove gently with a fork and return to the cookie sheet. Repeat until all truffles have been dipped. Once the yellow layer has set, microwave the remaining white chocolate until smooth and drizzle it evenly over the truffles. Let the drizzle set before serving.
- These truffles last about a week and can be stored in the fridge, freezer or room temperature when sealed airtight. Makes about 16 truffles.
Normally, I'm not a huge fan of cake pops .. the cake-baking and crumbling, the mushy, frosting-covered hands, and the inevitable misshapen balls of cake dough–no bueno. However, these Twinkie Truffles are such a cinch to make. You're TWO ingredients and very little prep time (about 30 minutes!) to eating heavenly bites of golden cake covered in smooth white chocolate, reminiscent of America's favorite snack cake. Since the Twinkies are prefilled with that fluffy, marshmallow filling, it acts as the "frosting" and binding for these truffles, keeping them compact and moist. You can still taste the sweet hint of the filling swirled throughout the golden, vanilla cake truffle. They're awesome!
Happy New Year's Eve! Have a fun and safe holiday, and see ya in 2013!
xo, Hayley

Dr. Ray Price Teaching Laboratory
In June, 2012, Queen's University recognized Dr. Ray Price's tremendous contributions.
The renovation and naming of the Dr. Raymond Price Teaching Laboratory, provides a lasting tribute. This project was spearheaded by Wayne and Gor-don Foo, and was enthusiastically championed by Paul Price.
Supported by graduates of Ray's group, the room has been transformed into a state-of-the-art classroom designed for up to 50 students in a modern (non-Soviet era) laboratory setting. A professionally curated set of teach-ing samples for the Field Methods and Structural Geology courses is housed in the room. In addition, Ray's Operation Bow-Athabasca Cordilleran map sheets have been mounted on the wall.


text: It was announced this week that The Tonight Show is making budget cuts — which means not only a pay cut for Jay Leno, but also the loss of 25 jobs on the show. As much as we could argue that the real victims of The Tonight Show are anyone who's been forced to watch an episode, this is still sad news. And since Jay is a razor-sharp satirist, unafraid to address any topic (including how Trump has a comb-over!), we'll probably be seeing these jokes on his very show!

OK. I'll continue to work on. Thanks :)
Can I add translation in old way? (Create page named "***_(ja)") With current translation system, it takes time to merge because I have to check each sentences. (Not all Japanese translations are up to date. Some sentences are added or removed from English version.)
You could do that, but please remind me, when you are finished, that those pages need to be archived manually. I'll do it, but my memory is horribly bad.
It occurs to me that the reason this thread was started was that some ...(ja) pages had translate tags. I you add the <translate></translate> pair, top and bottom of the page, it should get listed with those others. That should help us remember which ones are to be archived.
All right. I'll copy & paste Japanese translation from .jp wiki to ..._(ja) page of techbase.
You don't mean that I have to add <translation> tags on ..._(ja) page and/or original English page, right? Let me ask to avoid misunderstanding...
I'm thinking aloud, and it may not work, but I'm suggesting that we put it onto the Japanese pages. It's nonsensical to be there, which should remind me that I have to manually deal with them. If you have any better ideas I don't mind - I just want something to remind me :-) It won't actually cause them to be in the translation system, as someone (usually me) has to mark them ready for translation.
OK. I thought it is natural to put translations near the original pages, but it is also OK to put on .jp server.

Alert Management
Alert Management lets you know when things go wrong and prevents glitches from becoming catastrophes. You can analyze and understand problems before they cause trouble.
What's the difference between a good distribution company and a great one?
A good one delivers the right product at the right time and the right price. A great distributor delivers the right product at the right time and the right price even when they are having a bad day.
Alert Management tells you when events in your business are outside your ideal and helps you do something about them. It's called exception management but, really, it is about expecting the unexpected.
Alert Management monitors events as they happen within the supply chain. If an event is outside parameters you set, it tells you.
How a text message can save the day
Say an order doesn't turn up. The supplier has had a few problems but hasn't let you know. If you are running your business lean, then you probably already have customers waiting — it could be disastrous.
Alert Management knows a delivery is expected and when it doesn't arrive, it sends you a text message. Better than that, it sends an email to the supplier. You can configure who receives which message and in what format.
If the supplier responds with a new delivery date, Alert Management will replan the entire supply chain for you and send your customers a message to warn of the delay.
If an alert or a request to a business partner goes unanswered, an escalation program kicks in. If, for example, the customer services Management at your supplier doesn't respond within a couple of days, Alert Management can be configured to send an email to their boss.
Setting Parameters
Alert Management is completely configurable. You set the parameters and the communications to suit your way of doing business. And because it is monitoring all the events as they happen, it can also be used to let people know when things are going well.
One of the most important things you can do with this software is analyze trends. If things keep going wrong, it helps you work out why and improves your ability to make business decisions.
Messages can be sent in the following formats:
- Enterprise messaging

Какие здесь вина
Over 6500 hectares of vineyards, unique varieties such as Monastrell, and a winegrowing tradition that goes back to the times of the Phoenicians are evidence of the importance of this Wine Route. Thanks to new techniques and technologies, wines from the Yecla Designation of Origin have evolved towards more balanced and elegant notes, without foregoing the hints of fruit and the freshness of its star variety, with an aromatic complexity to match its quality. Visitors to Yecla can choose, for example, an elegant Macabeo to drink with tapas in the local bars and restaurants, or an assertive red Monastrell to enhance the typical dish known as 'gazpachos yeclanos'.

A variety of itineraries such as the Archaeological Route, featuring a visit to the rich historic heritage of Yecla; the Nature Route, involving a tour of the landscapes in the area; the Cultural Route around the city's monuments and artistic heritage; and the Gastronomic Route, the perfect way to sample all the typical local dishes. Experiences such as visiting wineries, wine tasting and wine courses. A broad calendar of events related to the world of wine such as the Wine and Tapas Route (in April), the Annual Wine Tourism Gala (in May), the Wine Harvest Festival (in September, with the traditional trampling of the grapes and the sampling of the first musts) and European Wine Tourism Day (in November, with the Noche Tinta, the Wine Tourism Marathon and the Wine and Spoon Festival to taste the first Monastrell wines).

Винодельческие города
A stroll around Yecla reveals a city that is steeped in history. Sites worth visiting include its Plaza Mayor square, the Concejo Palace and the Alarcos Palace, in the Renaissance style. Its Islamic past can be seen in the Hisn Yakka archaeological site in Cerro del Castillo. What's more, Yecla is home to one of the jewels of the Levantine Baroque, the chapel of Las Angustias in the church of San Francisco. The 19th century is represented in the grand Concha Segura theatre. The house-palace of the Ortega family, dating from the 18th century, is the site of the Municipal Archive, the 'Cayetano de Mergelina' Archaeological Museum and the El Greco Replica Museum. Nature lovers should on no account miss the landscapes in the Paseo de la Bandera or the magic mountain of Monte Arabí, of outstanding archaeological and palaeontological interest. Any time of the year is perfect for a visit thanks to Yecla's busy calendar of cultural and leisure events.

#1 Bailout marks Karl Marx's comeback10-01-2008, 10:54 PM
Read it and weep.
Marxs Proposal Number Five seems to be the leading motivation for those backing the Wall Street bailout
By Martin Masse
In his Communist Manifesto, published in 1848, Karl Marx proposed 10 measures to be implemented after the proletariat takes power, with the aim of centralizing all instruments of production in the hands of the state. Proposal Number Five was to bring about the centralization of credit in the banks of the state, by means of a national bank with state capital and an exclusive monopoly.
If he were to rise from the dead today, Marx might be delighted to discover that most economists and financial commentators, including many who claim to favour the free market, agree with him.
Indeed, analysts at the Heritage and Cato Institute, and commentators in The Wall Street Journal and on this very page, have made declarations in favour of the massive injection of liquidities engineered by central banks in recent months, the government takeover of giant financial institutions, as well as the still stalled US$700-billion bailout package. Some of the same voices were calling for similar interventions following the burst of the dot-com bubble in 2001.
Whatever happened to the modern followers of my free-market opponents? Marx would likely wonder.
At first glance, anyone who understands economics can see that there is something wrong with this picture. The taxes that will need to be levied to finance this package may keep some firms alive, but they will siphon off capital, kill jobs and make businesses less productive elsewhere. Increasing the money supply is no different. It is an invisible tax that redistributes resources to debtors and those who made unwise investments.
So why throw this sound free-market analysis overboard as soon as there is some downturn in the markets?
The rationale for intervening always seems to centre on the fear of reliving the Great Depression. If we let too many institutions fail because of insolvency, we are being told, there is a risk of a general collapse of financial markets, with the subsequent drying up of credit and the catastrophic effects this would have on all sectors of production. This opinion, shared by Ben Bernanke, Henry Paulson and most of the right-wing political and financial establishments, is based on Milton Friedmans thesis that the Fed aggravated the Depression by not pumping enough money into the financial system following the market crash of 1929.
It sounds libertarian enough. The misguided policies of the Fed, a government creature, and bad government regulation are held responsible for the crisis. The need to respond to this emergency and keep markets running overrides concerns about taxing and inflating the money supply. This is supposed to contrast with the left-wing Keynesian approach, whose solutions are strangely very similar despite a different view of the causes.
But there is another approach that doesnt compromise with free-market principles and coherently explains why we constantly get into these bubble situations followed by a crash. It is centered on Marxs Proposal Number Five: government control of capital
:Do not take life too seriously. You will never get out of it alive.
I wondered why the rock was getting larger. Then it hit me.

As I said in another post, we no longer have a political party that believes in limited government. It's no longer a question of whether or not there should be a welfare state, it's a question of what side gets the crumbs from the table thrown their way.
He never left.

|Sepharial's Arcana & Keys
The Arcana Of Stock & Share Key.
Key To Sugar Values.
The Master Key
The Golden Key.
The Eclipse System.
The Solar Lunar Values
The Solar Apex Method.
Sepharial (Walter Gorn Old)
Sepharial's Arcanas or Keys are his rarest and most important writings, being distilled applications of his most important techniques and systems. To originally acquire these writings Sepharial required a written application and signature of a non-disclosure agreement. Due to these restrictions, these writings have always been the hardest writings of Sepharial to find. This collection contains a sampling of these writings. The Arcana Of Stock & Share Key, and Key To Sugar Values, are direct facsimiles of the original documents. The Master Key, Golden Key & Eclipse System are transcribed reproductions, of these very rare works primarily focused on forecasting of horse races. About the Master Key, Sepharial said, "This system is deemed to be the final word in racing Systems. It embodies the result of 11 years of observation and research and is itself the easiest and most reliable of the many attempts that have been made to fathom the profundities of racing problems and it is claimed that The Master Key leaves others behind and gives the best results." The Golden Key, Sepharial comments, "is only published in typed script under an agreement which secures privacy and non-publication. This is the method I have employed in regard to all my Arcana. It would have been quite easy for me to have published the Golden Key as a book and in all probability it would have sold in thousands at a good price. But in doing so I should have emasculated its working value to all who possessed it." The Eclipse System was written sometime after the Golden Key, to which it refers, and it mentions recent racing from 1917. Some consider this Sepharial's most reliable system. The Solar Lunar Values & Solar Apex Method are brief summaries of the rules applied by these systems. Altogether this is the most complete collection of these rare materials ever offered, and should serve as an excellent guide into Sepharials deepest work.

|NEW! 1000 Pages of Sepharial Articles!
Sepharial's Monthly Column In
The British Journal of Astrology
Volume 1 (1916-1923) Volume 2 (1924-1930)
Sepharial (Walter Gorn Old)
Original Journals 1916-1939, Compilation 2010. Vol. 1 511 Pages, Vol. 2 601 Pages. We are pleased to make available this new collection of Sepharial's monthly column, The Kaleidoscope, from The British Journal of Astrology. The Kaleidoscope served as the centerpiece of this famous astrological journal, being at least 6 pages of each approximately 16 page issue. Sepharial produced this column for 22 years from sometime around 1908 until his death in 1929. The pieces contained within this journal represent a huge bulk of Sepharial's complete writings, in total around 2000 pages of content, most of which has never been seen since it was originally published 100 years ago. This collection contains 1000 pages of those articles. Some researchers are of the opinion that these monthly articles contain the very best of Sepharial's writings, since knowing that these journals had a small print run and were less likely to be preserved, Sepharial would reveal insights and concepts that he was reluctant to include in the more permanent and easily preserved format that his published books represented. Indeed, this has proven to be the case, since in the 100 years since Sepharial began writing these articles, there has never yet been a compilation of them made available, until now. Included in this collection of articles is a vast wealth of fascinating and profound writings by one of the greatest fathers of modern astrology. Sepharial's Kaleidoscope presents an ongoing monthly commentary upon world events with their astrological correlations and significances. It is fascinating to see the world through the esoteric perception of one of the founders of the modern astrological movement, and hear explained by him how stellar influences affect global events. Along with this, there are secondary articles on various astrological subjects, often first presented here before being published in his books, or never later published at all.

text: Monday, November 14, 2011 Guide Outlines Strategies to Improve Care for LGBT Community Admission, registration, and all other patient forms should provide options that are inclusive of lesbian, gay, bisexual, and transgender (LGBT) patients, says a new field guide from the Joint Commission that urges US hospitals to create a more welcoming, safe, and inclusive environment that contributes to improved health care quality for LGBT patients and their families. Advancing Effective Communication, Cultural Competence, and Patient- and Family Centered Care for the Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual, and Transgender (LGBT) Community features a compilation of strategies, practice examples, resources, and testimonials designed to help hospitals in their efforts to improve communication and provide more patient-centered care to their LGBT patients. According to the guide, using neutral and inclusive language when talking with patients will pave the way for more effective patient-provider communication and can make patients more comfortable with disclosing information relevant to their care. For example, health care providers should be aware of language or questions that assume heterosexuality, such as asking if the patient is married or making references to husbands or wives. Comments So happy to see this topic! We strive to be sensitive to all patients and may be unaware that unintentionally may be missing this important piece that was not covered in our education. Posted by Susan Blum on 11/18/2011 5:07 PM This is awesome to see. Fantastic! Posted by Walt on 11/22/2011 4:46 PM

Well, during the time he knew Conan, Shazam went by the title of 'Champion' and was much like Captain Marvel: a physical powerhouse combined with wisdom and a few extra abilities. And like Cap, the Champion used his abilities mostly to a) Talk his opponents down, b) Beat them up, or c) Out smart them, usually in that order. So as far as Conan was concerned, Shazam was his kind of warrior, beating his opponents through raw might or cunning. And since his powers came from the gods, Conan had little problem with him. Basically, Conan saw the Champion the way most Greeks would have viewed Heracles/Hercules: powerful, with a link to the gods, but not necessarily 'magical' the way wizards were.Voltron64 wrote:Might I believe that this setting's version of Conan has a much lesser distrust of magic and wizards considering his friendship with Shazam?
Now, this version of Conan was more willing to work with wizards, given that one of his friends, Greywolf, was one of the most powerful spellcasters of the day, as well as a member of the city of Xanthis, the Hyborian equivalent of the White Council. However, Conan never really got over his innate distrust of magic. For a guy firmly rooted in the physical world, magic is something that never stops freaking him out.
The best analogy would be to compare Conan with a modern day soldier that hates big explosions. They freak him out, make him nervous, he doesn't understand how they work, and there's always the chance something'll go wrong with them and he'll get his face blown off. But he's got a really good friend who is an expert on explosives, and uses them all the time to complete their missions. He likes his friend, but every time said friend puts down a bomb, he gets a little nervous. But at the same time, he has the satisfaction of knowing the thing that freaks him out is going to be doing worse to his enemies, so he takes some comfort in that. Nothing freaks him out worse than coming across an unfamiliar bomb, but likewise he's comforted knowing he's got a friend that knows how to deal with them.
It's basically the Vader Principle as applied to magic.
It's certainly happening now.And this better should have happened once.

The hospital I work at is large. We no longer have town meetings, we don't get to know our colleagues easily. But the extra effort can make a difference. Now I've got one more person I can speak to informally on the bat phone. "Hey, this is Giz. Here's what I see. Does that fit with what you see? With the clinical picture? With what you are thinking?" The more informal and comfortable we are with our colleagues, the easier and quicker we can diagnose our patients. There is no room for fear or intimidation in patient care. Things work best when smart, well-trained people put our heads together to solve the puzzle. Puzzles aren't single cases necessitating week long work-up, like on TV. They come hard and fast and in massive daily numbers. We are all trained intensively over many years to handle it, and we step up to the plate every day.
I got the permanents on the interstitial lung, and was glad I was hedgy on frozen. With more to look at, without all that nasty frozen artifact, there were loose balls of fibrous tissue filling the alveoli and mild chronic inflammation. An organizing pneumonia pattern, classically patchy - somewhat nonspecific histology findings that nonetheless direct patient care. In this case there was a clinical scenario that fit like a glove. One of the things I love about my specialty is that there is quick satisfaction of closure - 95% of cases are turned around in 24 hours. 99 plus% in 48. But a first glance, without the clinical and radiographic picture to fill in the gaps, can send you down the tubes if you don't keep an open mind. Things aren't always as they seem. A wise clinician holds that thought in the back of his or her mind.
