amfAR's LifeRide Cycles From Florida to D.C. for AIDS Conference
On July 14, participants in amfAR's LifeRide, a nine day charity motorcycle event from July 13-20, pulled into Central Florida on their way from Miami to Washington, D.C., to raise funds and awareness for HIV/AIDS. amfAR, The Foundation for AIDS Research, partnered with New York-based skin and hair care company Kiehl's Since 1851 to raise and donate $100,000 to groups at eight stops along the way, ending up in the nation's capital on the eve of the International AIDS Conference.
The 10-day, 1,800 mile motorcycle ride is just one of the ways that Kiehl's supports AIDS charities. They have also pledged to donate $1 to amfAR for each new Facebook fan.
"The support of HIV/AIDS organizations is one of Kiehl's three charitable pillars. Since 2001, I am proud to say that we have raised more than $2 million to help find a cure for this epidemic," said Chris Salgardo, president of Kiehl's Since 1851.
amfAR CEO Kevin Robert Frost saw the value in the LifeRide annual event, admitting that it was the catalyst for him to get his own motorcycle license. He will join Salgardo at the front of the ride.
"Kiehl's has been a valuable and longtime supporter of amfAR's vital research work, and the funds raised through the Kiehl's LifeRide will bring us that much closer to finding a cure for HIV/AIDS. We're thrilled to be partnering with Kiehl's on such a unique event," said Frost. Donna Fuchs of the Northeast Florida AIDS Network knows the importance of fundraisers like LifeRide.
"These fundraisers are very important to us as we still have programs that are either underfunded or that rely on donations, sponsors or contributions. The donation from LifeRide 2012 will be used to continue to stock our pantry," said Fuchs.
The majority of Northeast Florida AIDS Network clients live on less than $1,000 a month. The $5,000 donated to Northeast Florida AIDS Network will provide food to approximately 660 persons and make possible an estimated 8,000 meals. Money is also used to purchase walkers, canes, durable medical equipment, fans for the summer and blankets and heaters for the winter.
According to Fuchs, HIV/AIDS is a major concern in Florida, which has the country's third highest HIV prevalence rates, and is one of the top three states with the highest number of reported cases, with 100,000 people living with HIV/AIDS. And Jacksonville is in the top three cities in the Sunshine State for reported cases of HIV. Florida currently has a waitlist for persons needing medication assistance through the AIDS Drug Assistance Program (ADAP).
LifeRide Ends in D.C. to Launch International AIDS Conference
Celebrities including amfAR's Global Fundraising Chairman Sharon Stone will meet in the nation's capital today, July 20, to celebrate the final stop on the LifeRide tour.
Joining Stone will be notable motorcycle enthusiasts, including actors John Corbett, Tricia Helfer, Katee Sackhoff, Tyson Beckford, Teddy Sears, Christopher Redman, Marguerite Moreau and Grant Reynold, photographer Timothy White, custom motorcycle builder Paul Cox and artist Conrad Leach.
Meeting riders will be a group of D.C.'s finest chefs and motorcycle enthusiasts, including Chef Mike Isabella of Graffiato and Bandolero, Chef RJ Cooper of Rogue 24, Chef Robert Wiedmaier of Marchel's, Brasserie Beck and Mussel Bar, and Chef David Guss of Bayou Bakery.
Salgardo said he was glad to be a part of such an important mission.
"I'm humbled that as a company, we not only raise funds for amfAR, but we get personally involved with the fight against HIV/AIDS. It's especially significant that we will end the ride in Washington, D.C. as the International AIDS Conference begins. To be a part of such a moment in history is monumental," said Salgardo.
Corporate sponsor Kiehl's invites the public to join them from 6-8 p.m. at the Kiehl's Georgetown store this evening, or tomorrow, July 21 at the Falls Church EagleRider store, or the Kiehl's Tysons Corner Center store in McLean, Virginia. Kiehl's will offer a 15 percent discount on all store purchases nationwide, through July 22.
The International AIDS Conference is the premier meeting for those working in the field of HIV/AIDS, as well as policymakers, people living with HIV/AIDS and others committed to ending the epidemic. The conference features abstract-driven breakout sessions, daily plenary sessions, professional development workshops and components such as the Global Village and the Youth Program.
Leaders from the worlds of science, diplomacy, politics, philanthropy and entertainment are speaking at AIDS 2012 the International AIDS Conference including President Bill Clinton, U.S. Secretary of State Hillary Rodham Clinton, U.S. Secretary of Health and Human Services Kathleen Sebelius, South African Deputy President Kgalema Motlanthe, Former U.S. First Lady Laura Bush, HRH Mette-Marit, Crown Princess of Norway, World Bank President Jim Yong Kim, UNAIDS Executive Director Michel Sidibé, Nobel Laureate Françoise Barré-Sinoussi, NIAID Director Anthony Fauci, philanthropist Bill Gates, artist and humanitarian Elton John and actress Whoopi Goldberg.
The conference attracts between 20,000-25,000 delegates from nearly 200 countries, among them scientists, researchers, community leaders, advocates and activists, government and business leaders. This is the first time the conference has been held in the U.S. in 22 years, thanks to President Barack Obama's late 2009 lifting of the ban on people with HIV/AIDS entering the country.
The president has said he will not attend the conference, a move that has been criticized by many, who note that it will be held mere blocks away from the White House. While no sitting president has attended any of the three previous conferences held in the U.S., critics note that unlike previous presidents, Obama would be welcomed.
They also believe that as a member of the African-American community, which makes up nearly half of new HIV infections in the U.S., and as the son of a Kenyan, the sub-Saharan African region that has suffered the most from HIV, the president is missing out on a chance to cement his role as the global leader intent on ending the HIV/AIDS epidemic.

The extreme rating is a survival only rating for a 'standard' adult woman. This is an extreme survival rating only and it is not advisable to rely on this rating for general use.
The "comfort temperature" is the minimum temperature that a sleeping bag is designed for. However, this is just an approximation as people tolerate temperature differently.

This is an awesome sleeping bag. The second I get in and zip it up I can feel it start to warm up immediately. I do a lot of solo bike-hiking, and it is a massive piece of mind to know that I have a warm and comfortable bag to rest in at night times when the fire dies down. The draw strings at the neck and hood are awesome for when it is a bit colder out.
10/05/2012 14:23:34
I was expecting to pay more for this quality of sleeping bag. It's the first one I viewed and it was exactly what I was looking for with a good range of colours to choose from. After receiving a very informative demonstration from a staff member I made an immediate purchase.
25/06/2013 15:16:33

Perfect for the kids. Length was good and perfect for a 6ft 3ins teenager who finds other sleeping bags too short.

Well you know, if you are illegal, you get what your Flag waving for!
NP Rank:
It was the third annual nationwide protest on May 1, calling for changes in immigration laws and a reduction in police raids and arrests that have led to increased deportations. The turnout at rallies, in Houston, Boston, Chicago and New York, among other cities, has fallen sharply since the first year. Some marchers attribute the drop to the fear of arrests of illegal immigrants.
In the four years since they began, the annual May 1st demonstrations have declined in popularity. Some attribute this to fear of arrest, but no major news organization has reported a clear cause. However, other sources may provide the answer.
A YouTube video posted shortly after the 2007 demonstrations showed what appears to be police brutality at the protests in Los Angeles, which seems to illustrate an obvious cause for the decline in turnout. In the video, which has recieved nearly 100,000 views, police are seen shooting pellet guns into crowds of peaceful and unwarmed women and children. It's a disturbing video that is difficult to stop watching, because it seems like the type of thing that should be widely condemned and met with national outrage. However, the story is confined to a blurry video on YouTube.
The most disturbing part of the story, though, is in the comments the video has received. Though some agree with the message of the video, others make it clear that change will be a long time in the making:
"these fucking pieces of shit don't deserve anything,if you want american rights, then be american. these people are fucking ungrateful scum. for all i care the police can shoot up these people with non-leathal weapons all day and disband every demonstartion they attempt to create."
--gmfbgmfb (6 days ago)
" you want to be a part of this country quit waving another flag."
--guitarlover122 (2 weeks ago)
Though there are more positive comments than negative ones, the presence of such ignorant and intolerant comments indicates the deep-rooted problems in our country that continute to complicate the reform of immigration policy. This only means that the May 1st protests are as important as ever. Under the new administration of President Obama, perhaps this year's demonstrations will be heard by the government, and serve as a symbol of the change that still needs to come.

Noise in front suspension ( 05' z71 ) when turning wheel to the left.
Hey all, so every time i turn the wheel to the left, the truck makes a weird knocking noise (you can feel it in the steering wheel). it's been doing this for a while. had a few people look at it and no luck. Big O Tires said suspension looks solid and nothing out of place or noticeable damage. A buddy of mine said it could be the bar that turns the wheels (don't know proper term) but i had a mechanic check it and nothing. its pretty frustrating.

Thanks Pikey. Anything in particular i should be looking for on the CV shaft? nothing noticeably different on 4x4. i did raise the front a bit using the torsion bars recently (not sure if this is relevant).
01-08-2013, 03:09 PM #4did you have it aligned after moving the torsion keys? I would look for a torn boot, grab it and wiggle it. I would also do at it with a pry bar and see if anything moves excessively. Also see if the flange on the front diff (where the shaft bolts to) moves when you are prying around. The gear shop I go to says that the drivers side bearing in the front diff is the first one to go on these trucks. Have you jacked it up with the wheel turned left and spun the wheel looking for anything odd?

Yes, i had it aligned recently when i bought new wheels. Thanks, i'll try this out this weekend and let you know what i find. hopefully its not a pricey fix if its the bearing. Thanks Pikey.
01-08-2013, 08:12 PM #6I think that you can change that bearing without dropping the front diff. I know that you can change the seal without dropping it.

Dear Graduate:
Your graduation from St. John's University will be a tremendous accomplishment. As Provost, I will have the great honor of presenting you to our President, Rev. Donald J. Harrington, C.M. so that your degree may be officially conferred. You and your classmates have worked very hard to achieve this goal. Your graduation ceremony will reflect the dignity and significance of this milestone in your life.
As an institution we feel strongly about the importance of calling the names of each of our graduates and inviting each of the graduates to greet his or her Dean on stage so that the Dean may offer congratulations on behalf of the University. The names of our graduates will be read unless severe weather necessitates that we amend the ceremony.
Great care has been taken to be sure that the ceremony is completed as quickly and smoothly as possible. We anticipate that the ceremony will run approximately 2 ½ hours. Graduates are asked to show respect for their fellow classmates and are expected to stay until the student recessional has been completed.
On behalf of all those who played a part in your education here at St. John's, I look forward to celebrating this moment with you.
Robert A. Mangione, Ed.D., R.Ph.

For one of them, called spirometry, you take a breath and then blow the air out as fast and long as you can. These tests can help a doctor find out if someone has asthma.

Selena Gomez Relaxing Pool Side in a Bikini
Filed Under (Model News) by zach on 31-07-2011
Tagged Under : bikini babe, Happry Potter, justin bieber, Selena Gomez
Singer and entertainer Selena Gomez was showing off her sexy bikini body in Florida, and lucky for us, someone was smart enough to snap a few pictures of the gorgeous young singer. Selena Gomez is currently down in Florida for the start of her music tour. Beginning in Boca Raton, Florida on Thursday evening the young starlet Selena Gomez has been spotted all over Florida, from Universal Studios and the Wizarding World of Harry Potter, but now she's taking things down a notch by relaxing by the pool.
Even though a lot of people can not stand Justin Bieber, after seeing these pictures of Selena Gomez in a bikini there is something wrong with you if you do not envy him to some degree. The young bikini babe looked absolutely stunning in a two piece bikini as she lounged around poolside. Selena Gomez will not be relaxing for too long however, as she has quite a big tour lined up ahead of her. Who knows, maybe we can see some more of Selena Gomez in a bikini in between performances.

For some, dysmenorrhea, also known as painful menstruation, may begin a few days prior to the onset of menstrual flow, while the luckier ones experience it only on the first day or two. The symptoms of mild to severe cramping in the lower abdomen, low back, inner thighs or legs may last from one day to the whole length of the menstrual flow, up to six or seven days. Other symptoms such as fatigue, nausea, vomiting, diarrhea, fainting or headaches may also be associated in severe cases. But what many women may not realize is that their diet and lifestyle can have a huge impact on their monthly symptoms (or lack thereof).
Here's how to adjust your diet and lifestyle for a pms-free month:

I like Leaf Green/Fire Red more because of Ruby/Sapphire/Emerald batteries go dry and you cannot shiny hunt on them like FR/LG...
Plus, LG/FR have more to after you beat the game imo.

I think Hoenn had a surperior story line.
My 3DS FC is 2964-8767-0282 PM me if you add me!
I'm voting Hoenn for two big reasons:
1. Ruby was my first pokemon game; and
2. I have the most memories with Ruby.
I vote for Emerald, even though Gold was my first game and I played Blue and Yellow before third gen, because:
-The plot is way better in RSE. In Firered and Leafgreen, all you're doing is taking down Team Rocket, and that sort of comes to a lackluster climax anyways.
-Sceptile is my main man. It sometimes pains me to start any RSE run with a starter other than Treecko.
-Battle Frontier made for a great after-game challenge. I preferred Emerald battle frontier to those of DPP and HGSS, probably because it was bigger and more spread out, and had more stuff to get into (such as the cave full of Smeargle, which I was absolutely convinced would have Mew in it after that little girl said she saw something with a long tail hiding... T_T)
However, Firered does have the Sevii Islands going for it. I really enjoyed those, it was a lot of fun. I raised my female Charizard to level 100 there :') and then deleted her by accident. T_T

IMO RSE is better than FrLg because everything- the music, the story, the challenges, the gyms, the E4 - is better.
FR/LG was so much more fun for me. I loved the islands, the Vs. Seeker, and the champion most of all. I also think Kanto's layout is better than Hoenn's.
I dont know why people said that FR/LG have better graphic then R/S/E. But to me, R/S/E have better then FR/LG.

KNOXVILLE, Tenn. (WVLT/AP) -- The University of Tennessee has placed itself on probation for the next two years, a university spokesperson confirmed Friday.
Director of Media and Internal Relations Karen Ann Simsen said the self-imposed probation period began on the day it submitted its Response to the NCAA's Notice of Allegations on May 20.
In addition to those punishments and the probation, Tennessee has prohibited new basketball coach Cuonzo Martin and his staff from providing off-campus meals during the 2011-12 academic year and limited recruiting by football coach Derek Dooley and his staff.

Journalist Continues to Fight Courts to Protect Her Sources
The New York State Court of Appeals in Albany will begin hearing arguments next week in a bid by a Fox News journalist to squash a subpoena that would require her to ultimately reveal her sources behind a report she did on Aurora, Colorado, gunman James Holmes. Jana Winter will be asking the New York court to determine that New York's strong policy of protecting the identity of confidential sources should also protect her from having to testify in Colorado, where she could be ordered to reveal her sources.
Sebelius Admits ObamaCare Enrollment Figures To Be Released Will Be Low
Health and Human Services Secretary Kathleen Sebelius admits that the launch of ObamaCare has proven unsuccessful thus far. According to the secretary, enrollment numbers, which are to be released next week, are extremely low.
Government to Spend Twice as Much on Global Warming Than Border Security
Estimates reveal that the federal government will spend more money on fighting global warming than it will on tightening border security. Global-warming spending is estimated to cost approximately $22.2 billion this year, twice as much as the $12 billion estimated for customs and border enforcement.
Survey: N.Y. Doctors Adamantly Oppose ObamaCare
A recent survey of New York doctors reveals that they are adamantly opposed to the president's signature healthcare law, and some are simply refusing to participate in it.
Government Looks to Mandate Black Boxes for Vehicles
Federal and state governments are working on plans to require motor vehicles to feature a black-box tracking device capable of reporting real-time vehicle location, speed, and mileage directly to government authorities.
Obama and His Healthcare Law Increasingly Unpopular, Polls Show
Recent polls reveal that the reputation of President Obama and his signature healthcare law continues to suffer among the American people.
ObamaCare Brings About Massive Increase in Regulations
President Obama's signature healthcare law comes equipped with a seemingly endless amount of regulations, published in the Federal Register. According to CNS News, there are approximately 11,588,500 words of ObamaCare-related regulations, drastically surpassing the 381,517 words found within the healthcare law itself.
Low Healthcare Enrollment May Indicate ObamaCare in Trouble
With just over 50,000 people completing ObamaCare applications in the first week of the law's implementation, it could be in danger. According to sources inside the Department of Health and Human Services, just 6,200 Americans applied for health insurance through the government website on October 1, the day it was opened to the public, and less than one percent of all visitors to Healthcare.gov actually enrolled in a health insurance exchange.
IRS Officials Visited White House Over 150 Times During Period of Scandal
Further investigation into the IRS scandal involving draconian scrutiny of conservative groups seeking tax-exempt status reveals that there was significant collusion between the IRS and various government entities, including the FEC and the White House. Documents show that two IRS officials made over 100 visits to the White House during the period in which the tax agency was targeting conservative organizations.

(1064)Groundbreaking subversion
By The_Fury (3 reviews) , 05 Dec 2013Occasionally, a film comes along that redefines a genre. In the case of sci-fi, the standout moment is Kubrick's 2001, which turned B flick entertainment into the highest form of cinematic art. Whilst holding no similar pretentions, District 9 subverts the 'alien invasion' trope, most significantly, in its opening sequence by, as is stated clearly, changing the setting from New York/Washington ala Independence Day to South Africa. Insodoing, it is ideally placed to make an allegorical statement about that country's history of apartheid. Beyond that, it is decidedly embedded in the present, dealing with issues such as welfare, immigration and xenophobia, scathingly attacking our values of nationalism in the face of global financial ruin together with making a statement on the role of multinational corporations control over government and arms manufacture. As the story develops, like Blade Runner before it, the protagonist ironically finds himself becoming more human as his genes become less human. Cleverly, this deals with our understanding of 'the Other' an idea popularised by Edward Said. As a result, and in a very different way to Kubrick, District 9 forces us to consider what it is to be human. A triumph.- Was this review helpful to you?

Avatar for grown-ups
By TheWatchman (755 reviews) from Suburbia , 18 Nov 2013Every now and again, two films with similar themes will come along within a short space of time completely by coincidence District 9 and Avatar are a prime example of this. Both tell the stories about how a (reasonably) ordinary man ends up getting his life entwined with an alien race and kind of inadvertently becoming their saviour. Avatar still stands as the highest-grossing film of all time, but then it had pretty jungles, cute aliens and gave birth to the 3D culture. I dont begrudge it its success, nor do I hate it its just that I LOVE District 9. Here, instead of being set on a far-flung planet, an alien space ship arrives over Johannesburg and its alien crew given refugee status on in the city itself. However, after twenty years, the aliens havent shifted and people are getting pretty mistrustful of them. So, when a camera crew follows in an office pen-pusher to help evict them, he quickly discovers more than he bargained for. If youre into sci-fi or action then theres no reason you wont enjoy this. The acting is top notch. The direction is superb. Youll care for all the characters and it even manages to make you look upon the (computer-generated) aliens as real people and feel for their plight, too. Then of course it has action, much destruction and incredibly cool weapons. What more does the average sci-fi nut want? More? Okay, how about the face that the story also not so subtly plays on existing racial tensions around the world how about that a little bit of politics and satire thrown into the mix. Like I say, if you like sci-fi or action then this is for you. Oh, it also has big cool endoskeleton robots which shoot lasers and pigs (seriously), what more can you ask for? Roll on District 10.- Was this review helpful to you?

Earrns a place in my Top 20 all-time movies
By RattusTurpis (20 reviews) from Birmingham , 05 Sep 2013Once in a blue moon something comes along and kicks the SF movie genre's a*s, and District 9 did that without even breaking a sweat. A brilliant and original idea that has a great storyline and is packed with equal measures of believable acting, special effects, gripping action and real emotion. One of my favourite movies of all time and it has to be pretty damned good for me to say that. Movie buffs may recall a movie from some years ago starring Dennis Quaid - 'Enemy Mine' - if you liked that then District 9 will tick all the boxes for you.- Was this review helpful to you?

Carb Renew2 is a translucent acrylic enamel that is resistant to fuel and most additives, and withstands up to 300 degreesF. Produces a natural 3-8% gloss. Carb Renew2 comes in a 5-oz. aerosol, enough to cover about 2 sq. ft.

Since Carb Renew2 is translucent, it's very important to thoroughly clean the surface and bring the base metal to a uniform look. While your carburetor is apart and all jets are removed, simply spray Carb Renew2 on the exterior of the thoroughly cleaned bowl cover and main body. Apply in very light coats to replicate original plating.

Review by somanyqjets -
Quality Price Value
It is an excellent product, and the carb renew II covers better than the original.
It is a paint, not a plating. Dont expect it to stand up to carb cleaner.
It holds up well against gas, like its intended to. But dont touch the paint while its covered in gas it will smear. Let it dry and it dries up solid.
I have NEVER had this product peel off a carb after literally hundreds of Quadrajet builds.
price is high at $15 but getting better at $8.99 -

Review by TREVOR -

At first it looks great and you'll feel impressed, BUT spray one drop of carb cleaner or fuel on it and it peels off right away.
The only benefit is removing it all is a snap, just spraying some carb cleaner on it lets you wipe it off in 5 minutes...

Why are conservatives attacking Django Unchained?
If you know anything about Quinton Tarantino, it is that he is a fine director and writer and not half bad actor, such as when he starred with George Clooney in from Dawn till Dusk. One of the common themes of his movies is revenge.
He did so with the Kill Bill movies, part 1/2 and later with Inglorious Basterds, the latter being a revenge movies of Jewish American soldiers getting revenge against Nazis, including killing a whole bunch of them at a movie theater, including one Adolf Hitler.
One never heard neo-nazis or German Americans decrying this film. Some people probably condemned the violence but there isn't much sympathy for Nazis.
I bring this up because there are conservatives who viciously attack the new Tarantino film, Django Unchained. This film, which is about an excaped/ex-slave played by Jamie Foxx who gets revenge on a plantation owner performed by Leonardo DiCaprio, who holds Foxx's wife played by Kerry Washington.
One of these conservative critics of the movie and Tarantino is the talk show host Mike Gallagher, a man who thinks it is a great think that the Confederate battle flag continues to fly over the South Carolina state capital in Columbia, S.C. In fact, he is amazed that any African Americans would oppose it. You know, a flag of a nation that was set up for the sole purpose of keeping their ancestors in chains.
Look, I understand that there are some whites in the South who are still uneasy about the past history of their ancestors. Sometimes their fathers when it comes to segreation or their great-grandfathers when it comes to slavery. But it is part of the historical record. Indeed, the extreme religious fundamentalists that still infects the South today, or the Bible Belt, is a direct product of Southerners using a literal reading of the bible to defend slavery. The bible of course, being very pro-slavery.
Lastly Tarantino says the war on drugs is like slavery during an interview comparing slavery and the drug war being as harmful when it comes to the African American community, including specifically black males. Though I would not go quite that far, slavery being a worse evil of course, but the drug war has devasted the black community.
Many young black men will have lifetime felony records for selling relatively small amounts of drugs as teenagers. Blacks take illegal drugs at about the same rates as whites but suffer much harsher punishment. It's an issue we should look into.

LA JOLLA, Calif. - Despite its steady offensive play, the No. 11 UC San Diego men's water polo team was defeated, 18-10, by No. 5 UC Santa Barbara Saturday on the road at Campus Pool.
The Tritons averaged two goals for the first two quarters, but had to make up ground after the Gauchos opened the game with three unanswered scores.
"A bit of a rough way to start the season," said UCSD head coach Denny Harper. "UC Santa Barbara is arguably a difficult place to win, but I do think we will recover quickly and play better water polo."
Brian Donohoe scored the first goal for UCSD after earning a six-on-five play on the exclusion of Teddy Zhang. Josh Stiling posted the first goal of the second, but the Gauchos went on another run to take an 8-4 lead into halftime.
The third quarter came with a surge of scoring from both teams, with a combined total of 10 goals. UCSB opened the quarter similar to the start of the game by scoring back-to-back unanswered goals and eventually outscoring the Tritons 7-3.
Stiling led the Tritons with four goals while six others had one apiece. Cameron Ravanbach made five saves in net and Nick Michels had one.
For the Gauchos, Evan Dellinger found the net five times and Matt Gronow scored four goals. Myles Christian recorded 12 saves and Chris Witelegge had three.
UC San Diego will look to bounce back next weekend when the Tritons participate in the Norcal Tournament, hosted by Stanford, Sept. 15-16.
UC San Diego Goals: Josh Stiling 4, John Butler, Joe Dietrich, Lance Curtiss, Matthew Michalko, Brian Donohoe, David Higginson. UC San Diego Saves: Cameron Ravanbach 5, Nick Michels 1.
UC Santa Barbara Goals: Evan Dellinger 5, Matt Gronow 4, Bryan Snyder 2, Brian Shoemaker, Teddy Zhang, Brendan McElroy, Ryan Baliani, Nick Tomasello, Nicholas Jordan, Eric Van de Mortel. UC Santa Barbara Saves: Myles Christian 12, Chris Witelegge 3.

After 18-months of tweaks and tucks, GM pulled the bandages off its new Malibu makeover Friday showing off a mid-sized sedan with a bigger grille, redesigned center console and more room in the back seat. Whether it's a beauty or a beast now rests with the consumer. The 2014 Malibu will begin rolling into showrooms in the third quarter.
While GM may be pitching this refresh as a move to build upon the strength of the current model, the truth is the update is a react to the panning the Malibu got when it was first introduced its Eco version in 2012. Critics called it a forgettable car. So GM – like Honda and its Civic – wheeled the car in for a facelift both inside and out.
TOKYO—Toyota Motor Corp.'s upscale Lexus brand will bide its time on China, a senior executive said, holding off on shifting any production there despite rivals' drive for bigger slices of its fast-growing premium segment.
"In China, it's no secret that if you don't start building cars you're not going to do the big, big volumes," Mark Templin, executive vice president of Lexus International, told The Wall Street Journal Friday, adding that it's also a company goal to make cars where they are sold. Even so, he said, it will be some time before Toyota builds Lexus cars in China.
BMW AG unveiled a redesigned version of its X5 sport-utility vehicle, which will go on sale in the fourth quarter of this year. The German luxury car maker, which refers to the X5 as a "sports activity vehicle" or SAV, has reworked its X5 lineup to appeal to a wider audience in part by offering more mechanical layout and improved power plants.
The company said it will offer the new X5 in a rear-wheel-drive version called the X5 sDrive35i. In the past all X5s came with all-wheel drive. The rear-drive model and the all-wheel-drive X5 xDrive35i will be powered by 3.0-liter turbocharged in-line six-cylinder engine.
NEW DELHI—Daimler AG's luxury-car division, Mercedes-Benz, Thursday introduced the A-Class premium hatchback in India as competition intensifies from BMW AG, Audi AG and Jaguar Land Rover Automotive PLC in this potential growth market for luxury cars.
The A-Class is the smallest and lowest-priced Mercedes-Benz model in India, and will add to the B-Class hatchback introduced last September.
The introduction of the A-Class is part of the company's plans to offer new products in India this year, Mercedes-Benz India said. It didn't give any sales projection for the car.
States should require drivers of self-driving cars to get extra training and special licenses to show that they can safely operate the vehicles on public roads, the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration said today.
The recommendation that operators of autonomous cars get special certification is part of a list of recommendations from the NHTSA about how states should regulate – or in some cases, not regulate – the emerging technology of self-driving vehicles.
Today's "Preliminary Statement of Policy Concerning Automated Vehicles' is the Obama administration's most comprehensive response yet to the rapid developments in the field by established auto makers, and new players such as internet search power Google, Inc.
Ford Motor Co., the company that helped to birth the sport-utility era with the Explorer, now is in position to spread the phenomenon around the world.
Ford's catalogue of small, medium and large "utility vehicles" gives it a strong offering in every size category, says Jim Farley, Ford's chief marketing and sales officer, and it's a market that is set to grow significantly over the next several years, particularly in Asia.
"You might say that Ford has developed a core competency in utilities," Farley said. The Ford brand has seven utility models and Lincoln has two, with a third likely to come later this year.
When Darrell Wallace Jr. dons his helmet and straps into his racing truck this weekend he'll get a boost of what racers arguably need more than horsepower, nerve or a will to win: sponsorship.
Recreational vehicle and supply retailer Camping World and its Good Sam Enterprises travel-club unit have agreed to sponsor the 19-year-old Wallace for 11 of the 18 races remaining in this season. The company is also the title sponsor of Nascar's Camping World Truck Series, which feeds into its Nationwide and top-tier Sprint Cup series.
The added funding "makes a huge difference because it takes some of the worry away from the team," Wallace said. As a result of stronger financial backing, he and his crew will have fewer limitations in how they tune the truck's engine, suspension and other parts to perform as well as possible.
LEIPZIG, Germany—As Porsche maneuvers deeper into the markets for SUVs and sedans, it is racing to remind a new generation of drivers what gave the brand its original mystique—speed.
The brand has unnerved purists in recent years, first with the launch of its hulking Cayenne sport-utility vehicle, then a four-door sedan called the Panamera. Though the expansion has boosted the Volkswagen AG-owned car maker's sales by nearly 50% over the past four years, the Cayenne and Panamera made up roughly three-quarters of its 143,000 vehicle sales last year.
Chevrolet is launching an advertising campaign based on its role in the coming movie "Turbo." The General Motors Co. unit collaborated with DreamWorks Animation SKG Inc. on the film, which is about a snail who becomes speedy and wants to compete in the Indianapolis 500 after meeting a souped-up Chevy Camaro.
Chevy said its design department worked with filmmakers on the look of the animated Camaro and IndyCars that appear in the film, which are powered by Chevrolet racing engines. The company said part of its mission was to help give the film an authentic look and feel of an auto-racing setting.
The problem when writing about the McLaren P1, the latest supercar from the British racing stable, is where to start?
Do you talk about the fact that the £866,000 ($1.3 million) supercar–designed and built in the race company's Norman Foster-designed headquarters in England–produces 903 brake horsepower, making it more powerful than a 60-ton Chieftain tank?
Do you mention the fact that only 375 of the cars are ever going to be made–about one a day? Or that each one is assembled by hand from more than 15,000 components and takes three days just to paint?

Death Will Freak You Out If You Really Stop and Think About It
Last night, in a characteristic bout of insomnia, I reached for my magazine stack and found myself reading one of Christopher Hitchens's last Vanity Fair columns, from the January issue. He knew he was near death. "So far," Hitchens wrote, "I have decided to take whatever my disease can throw at me, and to stay combative even while taking the measure of my inevitable decline. I repeat, this is no more than what a healthy person has to do in slower motion."
Yep, that's right. We're all dying, right now. Even the youngest among us have already buckled into our roller-coaster cars and begun ratcheting up the slope from which we'll rocket down through a wild and wonderful ride that, even at its most thrilling moments, moves forward along a track that will inevitably end. There's no going backwards.
The idea of death has been popping into my mind with unsettling frequency lately, I think because my family has started the long process of clearing my parents' house out for eventual sale. That's meant delving into my embarrassingly vast personal archive, looking at toys, papers, drawings, clothes, and other personal possessions that I haven't touched in years.
The process has made the past concrete: instead of just remembering the years of "my childhood" in a diffuse haze, I'm remembering the specific hours of playing Transformers baseball and scheming to steal custody of my sister's Cabbage Patch Kid and narrating mix tapes. It's a reminder that time is, ultimately, finite—that I've done a finite number of things in my life so far, and that in the (hopefully) large but still finite number of years left to me, there are a finite number of things I will do. Sorting through her collection of unread paperbacks in the attic, my mom talked about the moment in her life when she realized that she would never have time to read all the books she wanted to read. "That made me so sad," she said.
Should we be sad that death is coming? It's hard not to be a little creeped out by the fact, but there doesn't seem to be much point in dwelling on it.
My understanding of what youth and age mean changed completely when my grandmother died. By the time she died, Grandma was, by any definition, old: 90 years old. Her life had taken her from girlhood to young adulthood to middle age to a long and productive old age, and her health had weakened significantly in her last year of life, but it struck me that the difference between my grandma as a girl and my grandma as an old woman was nothing compared to the difference between my grandma alive and my grandma not-alive. Even at 90, when alive she was still a part of the world, her mind intact even as her body failed. Then, suddenly, she was gone forever.
If you're not dead, you're alive. It's as simple as that. Whether you're 5 or 15 or 45 or 85, you're here among the living.
Christopher Hitchens is no longer among the living, and though few have written so articulately about the experience of dying, I wonder whether even Hitchens was ever really able to wrap his mind around the true meaning of death. Can any of us? Can you really imagine a world where your consciousness—your memories, your personality, everything inside your head—is really and irrevocably gone? Like Hitchens, I'm an atheist, but I understand why the concept of an afterlife is so intuitive. Death has got to be like sleep, right? You wake up, shake it off, and go about your business?
I know this is where I'm supposed to say something hopeful like, "Well, I guess some day we'll all find out!" I don't really believe that, though. I expect that when I'm gone, I'll be gone for good. I'm trying not to think about that, though, because it really freaks me out.

Trade secrets are important intellectual property. They leak all the time, but usually in ways that are difficult to detect.
So when the authorities get a case they can actually win, it's hammer-and-tongs, to try to deter others. The Recorder (legal newspaper) reported that Korn-Ferry was heavily involved in this prosecution of their former employee.
Be careful out there...

Too bad we can't prosecute the hackers in China that do it by the hour, every single day of the year.
If we asked the Cato Institute (for the criminally insane) though, they would probably reply that Mr. Nosal was just engaging in good ol' free enterprise.

Very happy with purchase. But very easy to lose stylus. I lost it in a couple of days. Should be attached to case with elastic or some kind of cord. Falls out to easily in headphone hole.
Received the case quickly and the cover is a little bit flimsy. Nonetheless, my phone is fastened securely in and highly recommend.
I gave this 1 star because IT IS NOT LEATHER!! I would never have bought this if I had seen this in a store because it is plastic. This was falsely advertised. IF it was leather I would be very happy with it as it does protect my phone in my purse. I have had no problem with the phone popping out of the case.
Case fits like a glove. I love the easy open and close. The only thing I would suggest is watching the magnet on the front, I'm kind of afraid to put my debit/credit cards in there! But overall it's a great buy.
The wallet protects my phone and keeps it safe. I can go shopping with just my phone, driver's license and a few credit cards!

It looks like Microsoft is using the old DirectX limitation trick to push PC enthusiasts to buy its latest operating system. According to a Hardware Info report that cites a post on Microsoft Answers Forum by Microsoft employee Daniel Moth, the company may restrict DirectX 11.1, of which the newest generation of GPUs from AMD and NVIDIA are compatible with, to Windows 8. Windows 7 users will have to make do with DirectX 11. The move could be a little harsh, as each new version of Windows has access to at least two new DirectX versions. Windows XP saw DirectX 8 and 9.x, Windows Vista DirectX 10 and 11. Microsoft DirectX 11.1 adds a few new features to its Direct3D component. In addition to a vendor-neutral stereo 3D platform, it adds a host of 3D API features. Source: Hardware.info
This is not going to happen being that user base is too large on 7. Also, not many games are on DX 11 as it is. 11.1 update will be miniscule.
DX should be separated from Windows, just like Internet Explorer The only reason to "tie" DX editions down to Windows versions is monopolistic control. In other news, EU fines MS to help bail out Greece.
Well what else can MS do? Not like they can roll out the "It ain't vista" to sell millions of copies. I have yet to see one reason to upgrade.
MS makes me laugh honestly, drivers get broken each Windows version, now making it where DX isnt updated (XP had DX8-DX9C). Most Users wont move to 8 Unless if they have a means of removing the Start Screen, most dont appreciate having to buy a software program just to restore Windows 7 Functionality which worked! Also testing here proved to amount no gain in gaming performance over 7, It actually fell a couple of points.
Hmm... didn't we get this exact same thing a while back with DX10 and XP? I suspect that, desire for backwards-compatibility, and programmer laziness are the three main reasons why that most games are still on DX9.
Wait.. What? Windows 7 won't get DX 11.1 to play DX 9 console ports? Well f@ck me.. and the new consoles will use DX 11 at most... Unless they are saying XBox 720 will use DX 11.1, but still it's a whole year for Windows 8 to flop... I'm using Win8 on a laptop and like it in some ways, but hate it in others.. I just found out Saturday that I would have to purchase the $10 Microsoft Media Player Upgrade to play DVD's.. You can get around that by using other players like VLC player, but still the fact that M$ remove DVD playback is still f@cked up.. @Filiprino - I agree with you and think this will go the way of the DX 10.1.. and believe OpenGL 4.2 for the win!
Drivers are the manufacturers responsibility as well as MS. Blame them too. Wasn't there actual technical reasons for DX10 not making it to XP?
Dude Don't jump the gun. That won't happen. The choice is stick with Windows 7 and play games just fine under DX10, DX10.1 or DX11 with virtually the same level of detail or run to Linux with a limited support for old games. Which sounds more attrative to gamers?
+1 As a consumer you still have a choice. If you don't want to move to Win8, don't buy titles that only support DX11.1? It's not like you signed a contract with Microsoft that forces them to provide legacy support... It's all economics...
This article is speaking half truth. Another article stated that DX11.1 needed WDDM 1.2 which is only in windows 8 and is tied into the kernel. It would make perfect sense why DX 11.1 was not offered to windows 7. Also DX11.1 offers some pretty good advantages and will be used when the next generation of consoles comes out.
lol Microsoft is funny...they will implement DX11.1 into Win 7 as Win 7 Came with DX11 and its 2nd DX update will be DX 11.1 no doubt there at all for me. It may be a little late to the game for Win 7 users but they will get their just reward of 11.1. YOU WILL SEE...
And the flood of 1 game a year that supports linux to hit steam for linux. You act like steam spurred AAA titles for windows.
I will stick with W7 and DX11.... DX11.1 isn't worth the wasted efforts that W8 entails. so but I don't need that start button to be 1/3 of my screen
