I love ALL the options. In fact Audrey was our original pick for our first daughter who we named Ava. A close friend at the time was planning on naming her daughter Aubrey and we changed because it was too close. Despite it's popularity I still love and adore Ava's name if that helps.
I would choose Audrey. I think it fits your vintage but classic feel, especially with the Audrey Hepburn association. It doesn't get better than that. I adored the suggestion of Audrey Olivia. Perfect flow, great way to combine two name loves.
I like Ava paired with the Sophia variation better. Mind you, I love the Sophie variation the best, but I'm bringing this up for a sibset perspective. Sophia (although being Greek) sounds more Italian with the Latin based Ava.
And although I think it's gorgeous Olivia just doesn't quite fit with Sophie for me the way Audrey does.
I will comment though, that if you and I were friends in real life, we'd probably be in a constant fist fight over baby names!Last edited by gigigibbons; May 20th, 2013 at 05:56 PM.

By Ray & Tom Magliozzi
For Wheels
Dear Tom and Ray: I never would have imagined that my automotive life would be interesting enough to merit communicating with you guys, but 20 or so years after first discovering you, I think I have an experience worth sharing. Actually, it's my wife's experience, but she has no idea who you guys are, so I get to do the honors. My wife drives a 2003 VW Passat GLX 4Motion Wagon with just over 47,000 miles on it. She took it to a local dealer for service last May after smoke began billowing from the right side of the car and sweet-smelling liquid was dripping out. The dealer replaced the heater core and coolant bottle, and all was well ... until the next warm day, when my wife noted that her air conditioning (which had worked prior to the heater-core replacement) would not blow cold air. The dealer admitted that they had not properly shoved some hose in some opening, and fixed it at no charge. A few days later, while my wife was chauffeuring her elderly mother around, her steering completely failed. This happened as she was changing lanes, so when the steering failed, she was pointing directly into oncoming traffic. She managed to stop the car before colliding with any of the oncoming cars as she crossed the center line. When the police arrived and interviewed the parties, they noted a threaded bolt, about 1 1/2 inches long, lying on the driver's floor mat. Everybody was OK, but my wife was very shaken, and she refuses to drive her car ever again. The car ultimately was towed to the dealer, and we have a rental (paid for by the dealer) sitting in our garage. The dealer called this week and acknowledged that they were negligent and did not tighten down a bolt in the clockspring to VW specs. They swear it's fixed. Should we believe them? — Robert
TOM: Well, we have to give them credit for owning up to their mistakes, Robert.
RAY: But that doesn't nearly make up for the debit we have to take for them being careless morons.
TOM: Here's my reconstruction of what probably happened. When your wife went in for the heater core, they had to take off the dashboard, which is a big job. That required removing the steering wheel and lowering the steering column.
RAY: While they were replacing the heater core, they created a leak in the AC evaporator. That's what caused the AC to fail.
TOM: When you brought it back, they forced the guy who had replaced the heater core to take apart the dashboard again and fix the AC problem he caused. I'm guessing he was none too happy about this, since they probably made him do it on his own time for no pay.
RAY: So he was cheesed off, zipping the bolts off with his air gun, grousing about having to do the job again, and working quickly and carelessly. And he forgot to tighten something crucial. I doubt it was the clockspring, since that doesn't hold anything on. I think more likely it was the nut that holds the steering wheel to the steering column. But regardless, this guy was eager to be done with you — and he almost was!
TOM: The question is, is it fixed now? I'd say it probably is. But here's what I'd do: I'd send the general manager of the dealership a certified letter, reminding him of the sequence of events, and that your wife was almost killed due to their negligence. And then I would insist that he have a senior mechanic (not the guy who left the nut loose) inspect the entire car and have the dealership certify to you in writing that it's now safe to drive.
RAY: By doing this, you're letting them know that, should anything else go wrong and be traceable to any work they did, they will be held legally responsible for any death, dismemberment or temporary loss of bladder control that occurs in the future. They should take that very seriously and inspect the car carefully.
TOM: That still may not be enough to soothe your wife's concerns. In which case YOU'LL have to drive the car for a few months and allow your wife to see that there are no further incidents (I'd up the value of your life insurance before doing that, just in case).
RAY: And you have to accept the possibility that your wife may never feel safe driving this car again. She may just opt to keep your new Porsche Cayenne Turbo and make you the new owner of an '03 Passat Wagon. Congratulations, Robert!

GMAT exercise 33●Question 1. Sentence Correction Direction: Correct the underlined part As its sales of computer products have surpassed those of measuring instruments, the company has become increasingly willing to compete for the mass market sales they would in the past have conceded to rivals. (a) they would in the past have conceded to rivals (b) they would have conceded previously to their rivals (c) that in the past would have been conceded previously to rivals (d) it previously would have conceded to rivals in the past (e) it would in the past have conceded to rivals ●Question 2. Critical Reasoning In the United States, of the people who moved from one state to another when they retired, the percentage who retired to Florida has decreased by three percentage points over the past ten years. Since many local businesses in Florida cater to retirees, this decline is likely to have a noticeably negative economic effect on these businesses. Which of the following, if true, most seriously weakens the argument? A. The first supplies a context for the historian's argument; the second acknowledges a consideration that has been used to argue against the position the historian seeks to establish. B. The first presents evidence to support the position that the historian seeks to establish; the second acknowledges a consideration that has been used to argue against that position. C. The first provides a context for certain evidence that supports the position that the historian seeks to establish; the second is that position. D. The first is a position for which the historian argues; the second is an assumption that serves as the basis of that argument. E. The first is an assumption that the historian explicitly makes in arguing for a certain position; the second acknowledges a consideration that calls that assumption into question. ●Question 3. Data Sufficiency Directions: In this problem, a question is followed by two statements containing certain data. You are to determine whether the data provided by the statements are sufficient to answer the question. Choose the correct answer based upon the statement's data and your knowledge of mathematics. Is |a^2 -b^2|<6? 1) |a+b|<2 2) |a-b|<3 A. statement 1 alone is sufficient, but statement 2 alone is not sufficient to answer the question B. statement 2 alone is sufficient, but statement 1 alone is not sufficient to answer the question C. both statements taken together are sufficient to answer the question, but neither statement alone is sufficient D. each statement alone is sufficient E. statements 1 and 2 together are not sufficient, and additional data is needed to answer the question ●Question 4. Problem Solving If 1/3 is 0.333333....and 17/99 is 0.1717171717...., then what is the value of (1/3)+(17/99)? A. 0.505050...... B. 0.5005005...... C. 0.5555...... D. 0.050505...... E. 0.550550...... ——————————————————————— ●Answer to Q1: E The answer choices of A and B are committing a decisive error in terms of using 'they' to refer to 'the company'. And the use of 'in the past' and 'previously' in a single sentence is making the redundant meaning in C and D, respectively. Therefore, the answer is E. ●Answer to Q2: D The question is asking for an answer choice that weakens the author's conclusion that the decline in percentage of retirees moving to Florida will have negative economic effect on businesses that cater to retirees. The author drew such conclusion because of his assumption that decline in percentage points should be interpreted as a decline in actual number of retirees. The author is implicitly making an assumption that the number of retirees did not change during this period. However, the passage does not give any information on the change in number of retirees over the past ten years. The answer choice that weakens the author's conclusion will be one that tests author's assumptions. Therefore, the correct answer is (D) that total number of retirees increased significantly, which means that although retirees moving to Florida declined percentage, actual number of retirees could be higher than ten years ago. And since there are more retirees moving Florida, businesses catering to them will not be negatively affected. ●Answer to Q3: C Is |a^2 -b^2|<6? --> |(a-b)(a+b)|<6?--> |a-b||a+b|<2*3? the best answer is C. ●Answer to Q4: D 0.3333333...+0.171717.....=0.5050505050...., therefore the best answer is A.

Oxford Street Blockbuster
Wildlight co-founder Philip Quirk has produced a truly unique graduate thesis by delving into the psyche of an iconic city thoroughfare and has come up with a companion visual project that unlocks the mystery of the sum of the parts that comprises it. Photographing every building on both sides of the street in a continuous collage from Woollahra to Taylor Square, Phil's Oxford Street Profile shines an entirely new light along the whole length. Sweeping aside our usual perception of that small piece of neighbourhood a few blocks long that we feel comfortable calling home, is the whole story. The resulting wall of images is reminiscent of the historic panorama of the Sydney harbour shoreline by John Degotardi in the 1860s. View the outstanding results for yourself from 24 August at the OSP exhibition at the Barometer Gallery on the corner of Gurner Street (No 13) and Duxford Street Paddington. It is close to Five Ways Paddington on the Woollahra side of that iconic location. Also, on display is a limited edition hand made book which concertinas to reveal an eight metre! wide print of one of Sydney most famous streets - now that's taking panoramic photography to new lengths. See it online at www.oxfordstreetprofile.com

Finnish Pirates Get a Leg Up From Judge
Blueseed: Floating Pirate City Attracts 100+ Startup Tennants
There is a horde of startup entrepreneurs chomping at the bit to get a piece of this floating city. It hopes to be a floating city of freedom and innovation, visa-free, and almost like a surrogate silicon valley. It launched late last year in hopes that the respective constituents of the companies would reside on the boat almost like a 'work-ation' where the boat is just a hope skip and jump from the valley, developpers are able to come and go, and set up shop on the boat, free from most land laws.
The 'landgrab' if you forgive the pun is broken down like so, the US at 20.3%, India at second at 10.5% and Australians third at 6%. It is unclear what the ultimate fate of this project would be, but it is in the opinion of this author that there are more Swedes needed aboard this ship. How else will we watch movies on our pirate ship? It seems only fitting!
There are plans, currently, to renovate a decommissioned luxury ocean liner, and offer accommodations for around 1,000 live-in entrepreneurs on deck with costs ranging US$1,200 to $3,000 per month, per person for living quarters and office space.
Judge Rules IP Address Is Not Enough To Convict
http://geekblog.tv/398 – News: A Judge ruled that an IP address is not enough to convict a pirate recently, citing wireless network having no reasonable expectation of privacy or security.

The lack of stability was killing me. Couldn't paddle. Couldn't get out to the lineup, was basically getting my butt kicked.

Syria's political party law fails to mollify protestors [Al Jazeera, Qatar]
Presenter, Female #1
The Syrian Observatory for Human Rights said three people, including a woman, were killed by the gunfire of Syrian security forces in the past 24 hours. Meanwhile, the arrest campaign continues in a number of regions.
Presenter, Male #1
The Observatory stated that night protests were held in Hama, Rif Dimashq, Homs, Deir az-Zour, Idlib and Latakia. The US State Department described the Syrian army's dealing with the protesters as "barbaric".
Reporter, Female #2
It is evident that the draft law allowing a multi-party system in a country that has been run by one party for many decades does not mean anything to these people. The Syrian street that rejects the Ba'ath Party and its rule wants more than just an outdated package of reforms. No promises, past or overdue, will make these masses return to their homes before their demands are met. In the darkness of the night, some Syrians chant for the dawn of freedom. Pharmacists and doctors demonstrated in Deir az-Zour, situated in the eastern part of the country. Syrian activists are expecting the largest number of protestors yet during the months Ramadan. Another round of peaceful protests for change will begin after the Taraweeh Prayers, and that is Damascus' worst fear. The Syrian government miscalculated its belief that it could end the crisis before the holy month. The Syrians rising up also have their own fears of an escalation of the already severe security crackdown. The residents of Hama know firsthand what the security agencies of Assad, the father, committed. And for those present in al-Assi Square, night and day alike, it seems they will not rest until the end of the Assad family's era. The legitimacy of the Syrian president is at stake domestically and internationally. The US state department's spokeswoman reiterated Secretary of State Hillary Clinton's previous statement that Bashar al-Assad is not indispensible. The State Department also described the Syrian army's actions against the protestors as "barbaric." But what comes after statements that seem stern in comparison to those issued in the first few months of the demonstrations. Syrians are not expecting nor do they wish for foreign intervention but similar to other Arab people rising up, they do want additional crimes to be committed in Syria without the knowledge of the world and without any retribution.
UN envoy warns Yemeni state could collapse [BBC Arabic, UK]
Presenter, Male #1
At least 12 gunmen suspected to be affiliated with al-Qaeda were killed in southern Yemen. Civilians and soldiers were wounded in raids launched by Yemeni authorities on an extremist stronghold in Abyan province. Meanwhile, Yemeni Foreign Minister Abu Bakr al-Qirb is holding talks with British and other European officials to discuss the developments in his country. At the end of his mission, the UN secretary-general's envoy to Yemen, Jamal bin Omar, warned of the country's collapse and the severity of the security and living conditions in Yemen. He indicated that he will submit a report on the matter to the UN Security Council.
Reporter, Male #1
The UN secretary-general's envoy to Yemen, Jamal bin Omar, painted a disturbing picture of the situation in Yemen at the end of his mission in Sanaa. During his visit, he met with all sides of the conflict.
Guest, Male #1
Yemen is now suffering from the collapse of the state. There are ongoing wars in a number of regions. There are regions that acknowledge officials outside the authority of the state. This is a very serious situation.
Reporter, Male #1
The UN envoy admitted to the failure of his mission in Yemen, pointing to the Yemeni citizens' poor living conditions resulting from the political conflicts. He denied the existence of any other mediation or initiative to resolve the dilemma, but stressed the urgency and importance of reaching a quick solution.
Guest, Male #1
Therefore, it is an imperative and necessary step to escalate the process of entering a transitional phase in Yemen.
Reporter, Male #1
Hours before the UN envoy made these statements, Sanaa witnessed a massive demonstration in which tens of thousands of protestors demanded the departure of what they referred to as the "remainder of Yemeni President Ali Abdullah Saleh's regime" The protestors also demanded the regime put an end to what they described as "collective punishment," which they say the regime is practicing indiscriminately against all citizens.
Guest, Male #2
This march is an extension of the previous march to demand the downfall of the remainder of the regime and to condemn the crimes of collective punishment committed against the Yemeni people, such as cutting off basic services in most neighborhoods.
Reporter, Male #1
Aden, Ibb, Taiz, Baida, Saada and other cities also witnessed overwhelming demonstrations. The protestors repeatedly accused President Saleh, who has been in a Saudi hospital for over a month, of being responsible for the devastating living conditions that plague the country.
Guest, Male #3
The young people came out today to condemn the collective punishment practiced by Ali Abdullah Saleh's authorities and the remainder of his regime. They are punishing the Yemeni people by cutting off the electricity and gas as Ramadan is approaching. They want to collectively punish the people because they took to the streets saying they want the downfall of the regime.
Reporter, Male #1
Meanwhile, Yemeni Foreign Minister Abu Bakr al-Qirbi is visiting the United Kingdom to meet with EU High Representative for Foreign Affairs Catherine Ashton and British Foreign Minister William Hague to explain the recent developments in his country. The EU and UK reiterated on more than one occasion their call on President Saleh to transfer power according to the Gulf initiative. The Gulf initiative was drafted at his request and in compliance with the European and US mediation. Europe and the US welcomed the initiative and announced their readiness to work with it.

Bahraini opposition to present evidence of regime's human rights violations [Al-Alam, Iran]
Presenter, Female # 1
A number of Bahraini areas witnessed night demonstrations denouncing the crackdown, arrests, and arbitrary measures carried out by the authorities against the residents. And while the authorities conduct an arrest campaign targeting the protestors, al-Wefaq Society indicated that over 50 different kinds of violations were recorded and said conclusive evidence will be presented to the fact-finding commission.
Reporter, Male # 1
The Bahraini authorities' repressive measures are no longer a secret. The Bahraini opposition, headed by al-Wefaq National Islamic Society, confirmed it has conclusive evidence of these measures and will present them to the fact-finding commission despite its skepticism of the commission. In this context, leading member Hadi al-Musawi said the society has evidence of the repressive and sectarian measures enforced by official institutions, in addition to their clear revenge attack as seen in the irrefutable systemic punitive measures taken. He indicated that over 50 kinds of violations, described as shameful, were recorded. He added that they harm Bahrain's reputation, which is why the world sympathizes with the people. He pointed out that preventing freedom of speech is among the violations monitored by the society through complaints it has received, and which led to the killing and torture of protestors. It added that suspects were forced to sign false statements and were fired from their workplaces. He said that over 1,000 people were fired from the public sector, confirming that most dismissal decisions were made after the formation of the committee, which is another indicator of the authorities' lack of seriousness. With regards to the formation of Bahrain's national commission, which was called for by al-Wefaq, he said that 400 citizens with various backgrounds and age groups registered. He also confirmed that human rights workshops will be held to learn how to deal with victims. And despite the authorities' attempts to calm the situation with sham decisions, such as the formation of two dialogue and fact-finding committees, various regions and villages in Bahrain are still witnessing protests condemning the crackdown and the arbitrary arrests against the citizens. Demonstrations swept the villages of Barbar, al-Sanabis, Sharekhan, al-Kora, Mahza, al-Diyya, Ali, and others. Protestors confirmed their rejection of a dialogue that does not lead to the ability to elect members of the cabinet and parliament and to the establishment of a constitutional monarchy.
Guest, Male # 2 (Ayatollah Abdellah el-Gharifi, Bahraini religious scholar)
The sectarian approach is destructive to the country. As for the path to salvation from this wrong approach and from all the country's predicaments and crises, it is through a real political reform and not through a patchy change, and not though a marginalized parliament, and not through a tamed dialogue.
Reporter, Male # 1
The Saudi-backed Bahraini security forces continue a wide-scale arrest campaign in Mahza. Toxic gas was thrown in residential neighborhoods as army helicopters providing cover for the arrests hovered over demonstrations in the city of Zahra'. Meanwhile, residents responded by chanting 'God is great' on their rooftops, despite the siege imposed by the regime's forces on a number of areas and villages in the country.
Tunisians call for a 'second revolution' [Press TV, Iran]
In Tunisia, 23 allies of ousted President Zine el-Abidine Ben Ali and his wife have appeared in court in the capital Tunis. The defendants were arrested in January while trying to flee Tunisia with jewels and foreign currency. Some of them are also accused of possessing drugs. Last month, Ben Ali and his wife were sentenced to 35 years in prison, possessing large sums of cash and jewelry. Ben Ali has also been sentenced to 15 and a half years in jail for possessing arms, drugs, and archeological artifacts. The trials of Ben Ali and his associates come after weeks of anti-government protests which ousted his regime earlier this year. This forced the former president and his wife to flee into exile to Saudi Arabia in mid-January.
US, Western allies oppose Palestinian bid for statehood [Press TV, Iran]
Hundreds of Palestinians have gathered in front of the United Nations office in Gaza. They support efforts to seek UN recognition of an independent Palestinian state. The event was organized by the Democratic Front for the Liberation of Palestine. The Palestinian Authority has long been seeking UN recognition of Palestinian statehood in accordance with the June 4, 1967 borders. The plan has been opposed by the US and some of its Western allies. Earlier this
Revolutionaries refuse any initiative without Gaddafi's removal [Oman TV, Oman]
The UN envoy to Libya and the Benghazi base rebel council discussed ideas for ending the civil war but said a firm initiative had yet to take shape. With a diplomatic push to end the conflict gathering steam, Abdul Ilah Khatib said yesterday after the meeting that they would head to Tripoli today to converse government views. Senior rebel official, Mahmoud Jibreel said he had made it clear that the rebels would not accept any initiative that did not involve the removal of Gaddafi from power as a first step to peace. Khatif has said his idea involve an agreement on a ceasefire and simultaneously setting up a mechanism to manage a transitional period.
UN set to airlift food to African famine zone [Oman TV, Oman]
France announced a donors' conference tomorrow in Nairobi to raise as much as 1.6 billion US dollars to help fight famine in Somalia and other drought-stricken areas in East Africa. The announcement came after an emergency meeting at the Food and Agricultural Organization, FAO headquarters in Rome yesterday on the latest food crisis in east Africa. The UN is set to expand the area in southern Somalia classified as a famine area. The WFP estimates over 11.3 million people need aid across the drought-hit in East Africa.
Iraq suffers from severe water shortage [Dubai TV, UAE]
Presenter, Female #1
Iraqi residents never thought of the day that water would become a problem in Iraq, a country where the Tigris and Euphrates Rivers cross from the north to the south. Water shortages have become a real problem in Iraq, a country known as "The Land of the Two Rivers." Iraqi officials are citing factors attributed to nature as the causes of the problem. However, residents are blaming the government and accusing it of negligence and failing to find solutions to the crisis. Many have started to use traditional methods to secure their water needs. Shaifiq Abdul Jabar reports from Baghdad.
Reporter, Male #1
The living conditions of residents in this neighborhood are not any different than that of their counterparts in neighborhoods across the Iraqi capital. Here, the residents are suffering from a shortage of drinking water and water used for daily tasks. The water shortage is being attributed to aged and damaged water networks; a problem that is affecting both the rich and the poor. The problem is being described as "chronic," especially in absence of government solutions to end it. It requires a tremendous amount of effort and creativity to be able to secure or store a few gallons of water.
Guest, Male #2
As you can see, the coolers are empty and turned off. They don't have any water. They are not in service. There's no water.
Guest, Male #3
This is our life.
Reporter, Male #1
It's a difficult life, to say the least. It's taking place in a country known as "The Land of the Two Rivers." The residents of busy neighborhoods don't stay up late at night to study or have fun. Instead, they wait for whatever little water they can secure to quench their thirst. Water shortages in Iraq are adding an extra burden on families who are already suffering from the high cost of living. Many families have started to buy drinking water, which adds an extra expense to their fuel and electricity bills.
Guest, Male #4
A case of water costs 6,000 Iraqi dinars. We pay 6,000 dinars a day. Do the math.
Reporter, Male #1
The residents of this neighborhood didn't wait for the government's relief efforts and began searching for solutions.
Guest, Male #5 (Skip Guest Female #2, unclear and overlaps with Guest Male #5)
These are underground water wells. We rely on God. We use an electric pump to get water. We store the water in this underground well.
Reporter, Male #1
Obtaining drinking water in Iraq requires either digging an underground well inside one's home or allocating a monthly budget for buying water. The secret of life is no longer part of the sweet fresh water from the Euphrates in the Land of the Two Rivers. The people here are becoming more dependent on water bottles. They never thought the day would come when they had to pay for a sip of water. From Baghdad, Shafiq Abdul Jabar, Dubai TV.
Netanyahu announces housing initiative [IBA, Israel]
The prime minister today convened a special press conference after he had promised he would deliver revolutionary change in the nations housing plan. Netanyahu took to the podium along Finance Minister Yuval Steinitz, Housing Minsiter Ariel Atias, and Deputy Minister for the Advancement of Young People, Students, and Women Gila Gamliel to outline his new measures. The first significant incentive will be offered to contractors that the Israel Land Administration will make property available at up to 50 percent less than today's values if they agree to the government's conditions. That means that they would build smaller apartments and that they would be entitled to sell half of those apartments at any price they like.
Israel medical residents sign mass letters of resignation [IBA, Israel]
Meanwhile, pressure is mounting on the prime minister to personally intervene in the ongoing crisis in the healthcare system. Doctors have now stepped up their protest actions. Over 100 residents arrived this morning at the Sheba medical center in Tel Hashomer to collectively sign letters of resignation, which they plan to submit if their demands are not met by the Treasury. Similar actions are being taken by residents at other hospitals across the country. For their part, Israel Medical Association officials continued their three-day march to Jerusalem today.
Netanyahu postpones Poland trip as internal crises intensify [IBA, Israel]
The widespread press on Netanyahu to address the pressure here at home forced the prime minister to postpone a state visit to Poland today. According to sources in the prime minister's office, Netanyahu chose to stay in the country to focus on the housing reform, rather than travel to Warsaw as scheduled. Netanyahu's itinerary had not been officially released. The trip was expected to be part of Israel's efforts to discourage Polish support of a Palestinian bid for statehood at the United Nations in September.
Are US-Saudi relations at risk? [New TV, Lebanon]
Presenter, Female #1
An Israeli study raised questions about Saudi Arabia's ability to distance itself from the US despite the fact that the only Saudi official who has spoken on the issue is Prince Turki al-Faisal. Israel's carefully-drawn equation could not be altered by King Faisal, who became its victim.
Reporter, Female #2
Prince Turki al-Faisal waved the weapon of oil in the face of the US in an op-ed published in the Washington Post newspaper a month ago. In the article, he stated that there would be serious consequences for US-Saudi relations if the US vetoes the Palestinians' proposal for UN recognition of a Palestinian state. The article resurfaced in a new study on the US-Saudi relationship by the Begin-Sadat Center in Tel Aviv. The researcher said that Riyadh and Washington are still "very distant from parting ways," despite the Saudi leadership's anger toward the Obama administration. He noted that Saudis "are all bark and no bite." The Israeli researcher downplayed Turki al-Faisal's article as well as an article by Nawaf al-Obaidi, a security adviser working in a research center that belongs to Prince Turki. Al-Faisal's views were not seriously taken into consideration since he was appointed as director-general of the Saudi intelligence and was the Saudi ambassador in Washington and the UK several times, but was later pushed out. If such a position was taken by Saudi officials in power, then the US and Israel would not have reacted with such indifference. Proof is evident in King Faisal's position, which led to his assassination when he denied oil supplies to the West. He received a letter from the US in the mid-1970s that threatened the use of violence against Saudi Arabia in order to protect American interests. On that day, the king's response was "fine, God willing." Henry Kissinger, the secretary of state at the time, asked the king what his demands were in order for him to reverse the decision to stop supplying oil to the US. The king made the statement and followed it by saying he wishes to perform the two Rak'ah's in the al-Aqsa Mosque before his death. This position cost him his life. However, history does not forget. The Israeli study ruled out the possibility of a similar position in light of the strategic relations between the two countries, in addition to their economic, financial, and military relations. Saudi Arabia paid the US an estimated 90 billion dollars in one lump sum before even receiving weapons. And if relations with the US are to be severed, questions on the ability to regain this amount will rise. As for the more essential question, will the kingdom be able to stand against its ally the US, once again, and reinstate King Faisal's position?

When creating the new 2015 Mustang, Ford engineers and designers made sure to keep a worldwide audience in mind while preserving what makes the car special in the first place.
Though a little late to the party, Honda's significantly updated 2014 Civic went on sale this week with a starting price of $18,190 (not including a $790 destination charge), which represents a $225 increase over the previous model.
At the 2013 Los Angeles Auto Show, Hyundai revealed an updated lineup of 2014 Elantra models in 2-door coupe, 4-door sedan, and 5-door hatchback body styles.
Consumers can't resist Black Friday deals, and this year automakers got in on the frenzied action, advertising great deals on new cars, trucks, and SUVs. As a result, dealers enjoyed a surge of customers over the weekend right after Thanksgiving, and November closed with more new vehicles sold than in any month since February of 2007.
Hyundai has decided that the wait for a mass-produced fuel-cell vehicle is over. At the 2013 Los Angeles Auto Show, the automaker unveiled the 2015 Tucson Fuel Cell, a crossover SUV that will be available to residents of Southern California starting in the spring of 2014.

Story No. 2 – AISD Lifts Voice Against Testing: Athens ISD school board members approved a resolution last week, saying "… The over reliance on standardized, high-stakes testing as the only assessment of learning that really matters in the state and federal accountability systems is strangling our public schools and undermining any chance that educators have to transform a traditional system of schooling into a broad range of learning experiences that better prepares our students to live successfully and be competitive on a global stage …"
Why it is important: The tide against standardized testing in Texas seems to be rising.
Learn more: The story was in the new paper, The Athens News, which doesn't have a web site. You can catch up with the paper on Facebook, however.

Last Sunday's Boston Globe ran an article describing efforts in local schools to reduce the use of drugs among students. A number of schools now have police officers stationed within the schools as resource officers. Some schools are working with the police to use drug sniffing dogs to check student lockers and backpacks. The schools describe the police officer as an additional resource who students may talk to if they have questions or problems.
The more I thought about this, the more I realized that this is a well-intentioned but mis-guided approach. Schools should be a community of learning-they should not need law enforcement officials on site. They certainly should not require drug sniffing dogs.
The reality is that our schools have become infested with drugs and drug using students. The Youth Risk Behavior Surveys (YRBS) regularly report 40% of the U.S. High School student population engaging in underage alcohol use and use of other drugs. Marijuana and mis-used prescription drugs are the biggest problem, after alcohol, but there is also cocaine, heroin and other drugs available if you know where to look.
In Marblehead, many kids hang out at one of the local parks near the beach. A neighbor reports regularly finding beer cans and rolling papers but last week was startled to find a crack pipe.
It is well intentioned for a community to make a police officer available in the local High School for students to speak with. But where are the other school resources? The teachers, guidance counselors, adjustment counselors and nurses should be the sources of support for the students. Unfortunately, the system has eroded to the point where they are no longer available. As more and more students have been added to classrooms, special needs students mainstreamed without additional supports, position cuts that result in stretching of one position to cover many more classes and schools and a focus on standardized testing results, the regular school staff do not have the time or the patience to address the emotional needs of the students.
I have nothing against police officers but when we need to rely on them to provide support to our students, and need to use drug sniffing dogs to maintain control, something is very wrong with the system.

Scott Mandia, a professor of physical sciences at Suffolk County Community College at Long Island, N.Y. has done a topline analysis (on Climate Progress) of Wall Street Journal Editorial and Op-Ed (the "Opposite Editorial" Opinion Page) coverage of climate change and finds that the paper tells the truth seven per cent of the time.
The WSJ's defence for this performance would undoubtedly be twofold. First, the pages Mandia analysed are for opinion, not news. Second, there really ARE a couple of deluded "experts" out there who challenge the majority view on climate change: the Journal has a right and responsibility to give voice to those views.
Fair enough. But a paper published in the Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences has found that the proponderance of climate scientists who are worried about global warming is 97 per cent - not seven per cent, so the Journal is a bit off the mark. And while the paper is entitled to its opinions, it is beyond irresponsible to be setting its wishful thinking forth as fact. Bullshit is still bullshit, even if it's in an editorial.

"the proponderance of climate scientists who are worried about global warming is 97 per cent - not seven per cent, so the Journal is a bit off the mark. "
Although the credibility of the WSJ has not been always that of the most "objective" in terms of their editorials/opinion. It is, however, a good way to get your blood boiling first thing in the morning.
vegetable list
Climate change has got to be only one of a few topics that the WSJ has gotten so weird on that really, its like reading science fiction more than opinion. Even more so that being looked upon as revolutionary and/or alternative thinking, they are just complete nutjobs, really.
In the interests of clarity, you might want to amend the phrase "... the National Academy of Sciences has found ..." to something like "... a paper published in the Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences ...".
The original phrase imputes the findings reported in the paper to be findings of the Academy itself, but publication of a paper in PNAS does not represent a finding of the Academy. Findings and position statements of the Academy can only be issued by formal decision of the officers and council of the Academy; acceptance for publication in a journal does not constitute such a formal decision.

What Was The Highlight Or Most Memorable Moment Of Your Tour
Sigiriya was quite challenging and the elephant safari was amazing. The Maldives are a masterpiece of blue; snorkelling has become my latest passion.
Tour Leader Name
Tikiri + Bongo
How Was Your Explore Tour Leader
Both of them were very caring. Special thanks to the Maldivian crew. Bongo secured my first breaths of snorkeling. He and Adam safeguarded the group whenever we snorkeled. No one hopped into the sea before Younnus had checked the current and captain Moe was my special guardian as I had never snorkeled before. The only thing I/we had to do was to enjoy exploring the reefs. Besides: Don't miss Bablu's cuisine!
What Tips Would You Give To Someone Else Booking This Tour
Do it!
What was the highlight or most memorable moment of your tour?
Maldives ,wonderful trip with great crew. Tour leader was disappointing,but did not spoil my overall trip,would definately go again.Sri Lanka was beautiful,and what lovely people. The hotel at Unawatuna was good,but was not impressed with the management there. Some of the hotels in Sri Lanka were not up to standard,could not understand how they all had the same rating. The cleanliness of some of the bathrooms was not good,but the beds were generally comfortable with clean linen. Again this did not spoil my trip.
Bongo is a local representative, rather than an Explore tour leader (as indicated on the Tour Notes). But nonetheless, we look for local knowledge and information to be provided, and this has been addressed with him via our agent.

Saturn Aura 2007-2009, Custom Style Rear Lip Spoiler by Pure®. Give your car a more distinctive silhouette with this Custom Style Rear Lip Spoiler. Unlike some ostentatious spoilers, this one is designed to complement your car's styling and won't appear out of place. Its tasteful shape will enhance your car's profile.
- Custom design
- Made from Fiberglass
- Available painted or unpainted
- Installs easily with 3M automotive-grade double-sided tape
- Comes with everything required for installation
- Backed by a 3-year/36,000 mile warranty
- Proudly made in the USA
A lip spoiler is the perfect choice when you want to add just a subtle high performance look. This custom spoiler is just big enough to get noticed but not so big it's the center of attention. It will perfectly blend with the lines of your car and add visual appeal to the overall design.
This spoiler is made of high quality material such as Fiberglass. The fiberglass is precision formed and lightweight. It's secured with 3M automotive-grade double-sided tape. The spoiler comes with everything necessary for a hassle free installation, including detailed instructions.
And although this spoiler can be ordered unpainted, we strongly encourage you to select the painted option. Our computerized paint mixing system enables us to guarantee that your spoiler will match your factory paint, and it's unlikely that a local body shop will be able to paint your spoiler for less than the price difference.
The Custom Style Rear Lip Spoiler is manufactured in the USA. Pure warrants the spoiler against manufacturer's defects for a period of 3 years or 36,000 miles, whichever comes first.
133.60 258.85Brand: Pure Part Numbers: Pure® is a premier manufacturer of quality aftermarket spoilers for all makes and models.

Looks great on the car. I didn't use the bolts, even the body guy I had put it on was nervous about getting it lined up. He used a $15.00 tube of black tar/glue that is used for windshields. It has been on now for three months and is still perfect. The way he put it on was easy. It cost me $20.00 total.

The only problem I had was that the 6 screw holes were too small for the locator strips so I had to drill them slightly bigger. That is why I only gave a 3 star for installation. Other than that, looks just like OEM. Perfect!
Was this review helpful for you? YesNo(3.5)APPEARANCEEASE OF INSTALLATIONPRICE/VALUEQUALITYSpoiler Saturn Sky| Posted by Gerald B. | 2009 Saturn Sky (Ingersoll, ON)The spoiler arrived in fairly good time for having to cross the border. Upon checking the spoiler to make sure all parts were present, I noticed there were only four markers for six holes, needless to say without a template this was quite the challenge seeing that not all the tabs were not visible to be taped. I tried a loose fit on the trunk then noticed that the paint did not match, it was lighter in colour. Had it been the right colour, it would have been great as the paint job was excellent and the spoiler good looking. The plastic tabs for locating the drill hole need to be longer in length for the Saturn Spoiler, and two more were needed to make this a bit easier install. All in all good product but lacking in thought for ease of installation.

(Dark Ming Blue Metallic Clearcoat). I did the work myself in about an hour since two body shops were afraid to do it without a template. I used the strips provided and measured as needed without a problem. It would have been easier and quicker with a template but this purchase was easy to install. Looks Great!!!

Well I'm a little overdue here, but it is a new week.
So it's my honor and privledge to name the next nominee for Best Character Writer of the Week.
Therefore I'd like to nominate the writer who inspired me to start my very own AAR, Paranoid Tsar and his AAR "Ist Das Nicht Todeswahl?".
It is the story of famed U-Boat Commander and Admiral Karl Doenitz, leading up to and during World War II. The AAR mixes a number of narrative chapters from the point of view of Doenitz and other members of the German Kriegsmarine as well as often hilarious propaganda pieces entitles "Heroes of the Fatherland".
If you haven't yet read this AAR I definately recommend that you do so now and give it a chance!
Congratulations to Paranoid Tsar!

My Inkwell (of adventures, both failed, completed, and waiting for return)
Many thanks to TheLoneGunman for the selection and of course to everybody who has followed the Kriegsmarine AAR. More updates are in the works, honest!
Using characters that are recent, historical and relatively well-known is a fun challenge. A lot of my characterization of Doenitz and others is inspired by his book Ten Years and Twenty Days which I can't recommend highly enough. Reading it was a major inspiration to come back and try my hand at a HOI2 AAR.
As for Scharnhorst, sometimes the most memorable story lines just fall from heaven, or in this case slip beneath the surface of the ocean. Either way, "sometimes they come back" has taken on new meaning.
Now it's time to pass the mantle to a HOI2 AAR that is off to an excellent start: Mea Culpa: A French Confession by El Pip. The so far unnamed speaker in this AAR provides characterisation and other such terrifying concepts, as the writAAR puts it. The story is the confession of an old man reflecting on his failures. It is very well done, check it out.
Also, be sure to congratulate El Pip on Best Character Writer of the Week!

How do you enter a new "era" and become able to build the upgraded version of units...like a tank instead of archers or whatever the equivalents are?
And whenever you do whatever is required, do older units get upgraded into their new form, and if not can I do that manually somehow?
And somehow it occasionally offered to make my unit one of two different options giving them a bonus like towards attacking or defending cities, but it always gave two options and seemed random, are they random? If I wait until my next turn do I get different upgrade options? Thanks.

Zac Brown Band returns for Feb. 6 show at Resch Center

The Zac Brown Band is circling back to Green Bay, and this time to headline on its own.
What if I told you the artist with the top-selling song on iTunes this week was headed to Green Bay?
The goal of any artist making a holiday record is to put their own signature on these time-honored songs. On 'Wrapped in Red,' Kelly Clarkson does so with about five exclamation marks.
They're a little tricky to wrap, but otherwise you can't find a better gift for the music fan on your Christmas list than a pair of concert tickets. For the fan who has been extra nice this year, how about going all in with festival tickets?
Country music royalty is headed to the Meyer Theatre in Green Bay.

'Get in the Games' TV Spot for Disney's WRECK-IT RALPH Features Jane Lynch & Jack McBrayer
Published: August 1, 2012 - 10:19am
Walt Disney Animation Studios and Emmy®-winning director Rich Moore (TV's The Simpsons, Futurama) take moviegoers on a hilarious, arcade-game-hopping journey in Wreck-It Ralph.
Ralph (voice of John C. Reilly) is tired of being overshadowed by Fix-It Felix (voice of Jack McBrayer), the "good guy" star of their game who always gets to save the day. But after decades of doing the same thing and seeing all the glory go to Felix, Ralph decides he's tired of playing the role of a bad guy. He takes matters into his own massive hands and sets off on a game-hopping journey across the arcade through every generation of video games to prove he's got what it takes to be a hero.
On his quest, he meets the tough-as-nails Sergeant Calhoun (voice of Jane Lynch) from the first-person action game Hero's Duty. But it's the feisty misfit Vanellope von Schweetz (voice of Sarah Silverman) from the candy-coated cart racing game Sugar Rush, whose world is threatened when Ralph accidentally unleashes a deadly enemy that threatens the entire arcade. Will Ralph realize his dream and save the day before it's too late?
Wreck-It Ralph, directed by Roger Moore and featuring the voice talent of John C. Reilly, Sarah Silverman, Jack McBrayer and Jane Lynch, crashes onto the big screen on November 2, 2012.
