The Delinquents is a 1989 Australian film directed by Chris Thomson. It starred Kylie Minogue and Charlie Schlatter as the main characters Lola and Brownie, and was filmed in Brisbane, Maryborough and Bundaberg, Queensland. The film is based on the book of the same name.
The Delinquents was released in Australia on 21 December 1989 and received mixed reviews from most movie critics. The film had grossed $3,370,650 at the box office in Australia,[2] equivalent to $5,864,931 in 2009 dollars. A soundtrack was also released.
The film was adapted from the novel of the same name by author Criena Rohan. Lola and Brownie are teenagers in the Australian town of Bundaberg during the 1950s. They fall in love, but because of their age must fight their parents and welfare, who try to keep them apart. Lola falls pregnant and the couple runs away so they can keep their baby and live happily ever after. Lola's mother and the police find them and take Lola home, where her mother insists on an abortion for Lola. Brownie joins the crew of a ship so he can sail the coast and look for Lola. Meanwhile, Lola leaves her mother in Brisbane after an argument about Brownie and the abortion. Lola moves to Melbourne, becomes a waitress and bleaches her hair. Lola is reunited with Brownie after he visits the bar where Lola works whilst on shore leave. She returns with Brownie to his ship and they spend the night together in Brownie's cabin, where they are discovered the following morning by Brownie's friend and boss, Bosun. After an argument between Brownie and Bosun as to whether Lola should return to her mother or stay with Brownie, Bosun eventually relents and says that Lola can stay, so long as she is kept "out of sight" from the other sailors.
After the ship docks, Lola and Brownie attend a party held by a young couple, Lyle and Mavis. They are squatting in the property with their daughter, Sharon. One night, Lola and Brownie are arrested for under-age drinking after being caught leaving a pub. Lola is taken away by her mother and welfare to live with Aunt Westbury, a caretaker in the countryside for a fixed-term of 12 months. She and Brownie are told that they are not allowed to see or contact each other for one year. During Lola's stay in the community placement, a former charge of Aunt's visits for lunch. During this visit, Lola collects the mail and, after a brief conversation with the postman, realises that her caretaker has thrown all Brownie's letters in the bin. Lola and the caretaker fight, and Lola runs away.
Finding her mother drunk and unsympathetic, Lola returns to Lyle and Sharon's home, only to be arrested and taken to a young offenders' institution to restart and complete her sentence. During this time, a riot is started by the girls. After her 18th birthday, Lola is released from jail and is subsequently reunited with Brownie. They return to the house, where Lola discovers that Mavis is heavily pregnant with her and Lyle's second child. Lola wants Brownie to quit his job as a sailor, and stay with her; however, Brownie is unsure and confides in Bosun about his dilemma. Mavis goes into labour. The birth does not go well and both Mavis and the baby die.
Although Lola and Brownie offer to adopt Mavis' surviving daughter, they are unable to as they are too young and unmarried. Lyle leaves the child with Lola to give to welfare as the child will be placed in foster care and Lyle is unable to bear the thought of giving up his only child. Lyle subsequently leaves after telling Lola he intends to travel the world and taking on odd jobs to make ends meet while stopping off at different locations on his travels. He also tells Lola that he is too devastated by recent events to remarry or have another family. En route to the welfare office, Brownie sees Lola and Sharon in the taxi and runs after them. Eventually, Brownie catches up with Lola and Sharon and are reunited once more and they prepare to wed. The film ends with their wedding with their families in attendance.

Original novel[edit]
The novel was published in 1962. It had been written in a TB hospital.[4]
The novel was submitted for the Miles Franklin Award.[5]
Rohan died in 1963, having only published one other book in her lifetime.
The novel was republished in 1986.[6]
Rights to the novel were purchased by first time producers Alex Cutler and Michael Wilcox in 1985. They had been trying to obtain the rights another Australian novel but had difficulty negotiating with the author; someone suggested they have a look at The Delinquents, which Penguin were about to reissue. They obtained finance from the New South Wales Film Corporation and Australian Film Commission and hired Lex Marinos to write a draft. In 1987 David Bowie announced in an interview he thought the book would make good movie, which re-ignited a great deal of interest in the project.[7]
The Australian Film Commission provided further script development money enabling Dorothy Hewett to write a second draft. Greg Coote and John Tarnoff of Village Roadshow became involved and Coote suggested Kylie Minogue play the lead. At one stage Ben Mendelsohn was signed to appear opposite her but eventually it was decided to go with an imported actor so the film might appeal to an international market: Charlie Schlatter was chosen.[1][8]
Chris Thomson was approached the direct. He did not like the script but thought the book was wonderful, so managed to persuade the producers to hire Mac Gudgeon, who had made Waterfront (1983) with Thomson, to work on the script. Village Roadshow agreed to provide half the budget and the producers applied to the FFC for further finance in October 1988.[7]
The film was partly shot at Warner Bros studios on the Gold Coast.[1]
Release and reception[edit]
DVD.net later gave the movie a mixed review, scoring it 5/10.[9] IMDb also gives the film a mixed review, with the film scoring 5.1 out of 10.[10] Scoopy.com One review complimented the film images, saying "The cinematographer was Andrew Lesnie, who is absolutely one of the best on the planet. He's been the cinematographer for a few little films you may have heard of, like King Kong and the three Lord of the Rings films!" He also praised the period details and Kylie's lead role in the film.[11]
The Delinquents was re-released in the 1989 to tie-in with the release of the film.[12] There are some differences between the film and the novel. For example, in the novel, Lola is part Asian and suffers a miscarriage on the grounds of the all-girls school. It is uncertain whether the screenplay was adjusted or the missing parts of the book were filmed and removed to meet a lower certificate.
Box office and initial screening[edit]
The Delinquents grossed $3,370,650 at the Australian box office in Australia,[2] which is equivalent to $5,864,931 in 2009 dollars. It was the most successful Australian film of 1990 on Australian soil.
The Delinquents premiered in Australia and New Zealand on 21 December 1989 in wide release. Five days after the Australasian release date, it opened in the United Kingdom on 26 December 1989. It was later announced that the film would be released in other European countries; it was released on 1 June 1990 in Finland and Sweden under the name Delinquents - Nuoret Kapinalliset. It opened in the Netherlands on 8 June, then Portugal on 29 June. Its last release was in Germany.
Despite having chosen an American lead actor, with an eye to the American market, the film was never released theatrically in the United States, in part due to a problem with distribution. The film's production company, Delinquents Pty Ltd, took Village Roadshow Corporation, Village Roadshow Pictures and the FFC to court.[8]
Home media[edit]
The Delinquents was released as VHS worldwide in 1989 and released on DVD in Australia only.
The CD soundtrack was released in Australia and New Zealand by Mushroom Records and in the UK by PWL Records.[13] The soundtrack release consisted of old standards, one of them sung by Kylie Minogue.

While it's still unclear to me what the future of wearables will be, I must admit that all things considered I feel that glasses are a better idea than watches as a form factor. If the goal is glanceable information, a heads-up display is probably as good as it gets. This brings us to the ODG R-7, which is part of Qualcomm's Vuforia for Digital Eyewear (VDE) platform. This VDE platform brings new capabilities for augmented reality. What this really means is that developers no longer need to worry about coming up with their own system of aligning content from a VR headset to the real world, as this platform makes it a relatively simple process. Judging by the ODG R-7, there's no need...

Iowa Sets Record for Biodiesel Production
DES MOINES, Iowa (AP) -- The Iowa Renewable Fuels Association says the state has set a record for biodiesel production.
The industry group says Iowa's plants produced 56.7 million gallons of biodiesel during the second quarter of 2013. The plant's production of 99.5 million gallons during the first six months also was a record.
The group says Iowa Department of Revenue records show nine of Iowa's 12 biodiesel plants reported production.
The fuels association credited the federal renewable fuel standard and the reinstatement of federal biodiesel blender tax credits for the increased production.
Biodiesel is primarily produced from soybeans.
Iowa has 41 ethanol refineries, which produce the fuel from corn.

Curious about the newer model? Check out the 2013 Toyota Matrix
By KBB.com Editors
Once considered revolutionary, the Toyota Matrix is now joined by a fleet of competitors attempting to copy the little wagon's combination of versatility and sporty good looks. Copy-cats may better be able to compete now that Toyota has discontinued the Matrix's high-output 16-valve engine and optional all-wheel drive. Then again, few rivals can match the Matrix's outstanding quality and customer satisfaction ratings, not to mention its terrific resale value. Holding strong appeal with teenagers bent on customizing every inch of their cars, the Matrix's radical exterior is complimented by its highly versatile interior, which includes eye-catching glowing red gauges, a hard plastic cargo floor and a 115-volt outlet.
If you're on an economy-car budget, but you want something sporty and versatile, the Matrix deserves a good long look.
The four-cylinder engine has to rev high to make the most of its power, and some buyers might not be comfortable with that. With the loss of all-wheel drive, the Matrix has little advantage over newer, more powerful five-door models such as the Mazda Mazda3 and Volkswagen Rabbit.
The sporty XRS trim has been discontinued, as has the all-wheel-drive option.
Driving Impressions The competent 1.8-liter engine can move the Matrix with ease, though you will have to keep the revs high in the rpm band to get the most of the engine's...power. The standard five-speed manual transmission is the most helpful for this task, though you can opt for the four-speed automatic if you're not enamored with rowing your own gears.
115-Volt Outlet
The 115-volt outlet on the XR's dash should be standard in every car.
JBL Audio w/ Kicker Sub Woofer
If you like your music loud and your bass thumping, this system is sure to please.
Look inside the Matrix and you'll find a detailed interior that blends black cloth, chrome trim rings and brushed aluminum into pure automotive art. Gauges are housed in four deeply-recessed binnacles that are constantly backlit in a deep red glow. You'll find the Matrix's seating to be firm and comfortable, with a height-adjustable driver's seat on the XR trim. The roomy rear seat sits up high, affording passengers more legroom as well as a good view forward. When not loaded with passengers, the Matrix's seats can be folded flat to create a rather roomy 53 cubic feet of cargo area. Laptop junkies will love the two-prong 115-volt outlet standard on the XR.Exterior
The Matrix is based on the Corolla platform and shares its chassis and powertrain with the Pontiac Vibe. The Matrix is a bit more futuristic in appearance than the Vibe, with flared ground effects panels, sweptback headlamps and a narrow rear window. The sweeping rear beltline makes for narrow rear side windows that can hinder a driver's ability to see small objects that may be close to the rear wheels. The large hatchback makes it easy to load the cargo hold and, on the XR trim level, includes a rear wiper/washer. A number of aftermarket parts, both from Toyota and external suppliers, make it easy to customize the Matrix without having to spend a small fortune.
The Matrix includes a 126-horsepower engine, five-speed manual transmission, air conditioning, rear defroster, front and rear cup holders, illuminated entry, dual remote control mirrors, AM/FM stereo with CD, tilt wheel, tachometer, cargo cover and full wheel covers. The XR adds power mirrors, 115-volt outlet, power windows, power locks, remote keyless entry and a rear wiper/washer.
Options include cruise control, Vehicle Stability Control (VSC), front side-impact airbags, power glass moonroof, four-speed automatic transmission, auto-dimming rearview mirror, alarm, rear wiper/washer, anti-lock brakes (ABS), JBL audio and a number of dealer installed security and protection packages.
The high-reving four-cylinder is peppy and fuel-efficientexactly what most buyers are looking for. Although not big on torque, the 1.8-liter can move the Matrix with ease, so long as the car is not loaded with passengers or climbing steep hills.
1.8-liter in-line 4
126 horsepower @ 6000 rpm
122 lb.-ft. of torque @ 4200 rpm
EPA city/highway fuel economy: 30/36 (manual), 29/34 (automatic)

I passed it on to my kids, and if the the little swine had not let it run dry of oil, they'd probably still be driving it today!"

"Great car but did have trouble with the front skirting. It came loose three times. Once with no apparent reason, once after being backed into fairly lightly and once after hitting a bump in the road. Two of the three times portions of it needed to be replaced costing a total of $500 ($250 each time). Otherwise no real problems that were not covered by warranty."

"Meaning, it is a very reliable car. I get 34mpg even with the Automatic. Plenty of room. My only gripe was when I put Studded Snow tires on. I just didn't trust it. Solved that by going to the Studless Alternative Snow tire, Toyo Observe. Problem solved. I hope it lasts the 18 years like the last Corolla Wagon I had."

"Purchased this car about 6 years ago when it was 4 years old. Mechanically I haven't had a day of trouble. I've done routine work, brakes, tires, oil change, but nothing significant. Fortunately, I've only used the car locally, so it is only at 60k, which no doubt contributes to it's longevity. This Matrix is easy to drive, always peppy, maneuvers very nicely. One outstanding feature is the rear storage. Back seats fold either together or individually to create an even larger area for putting things. I can not stress enough just how much storage this car has. FYI even the front passenger seat folds down, which sure makes carrying that Christmas tree a breeze. There is NOTHING that I do not love about this 2004 Toyota Matrix. If all goes well, I plan to keep this one for ever."

Pecans in the Cemetery.
On the outskirts of a small town, there was a big, old pecan tree
just inside the cemetery fence. One day, two boys filled up a bucketful of
nuts and sat down by the tree, out of sight, and began dividing the nuts.
'One for you, one for me. One for you, one for me' said one boy..
Several dropped and rolled down toward the fence.
Another boy came riding along the road on his bicycle. As he passed,
he thought he heard voices from inside the cemetery. He slowed down to
investigate. Sure enough, he heard, 'One for you, one for me. One for you,
one for me..'
He just knew what it was. He jumped back on his bike and rode off.
Just around the bend he met an old man with a cane, hobbling along.
'Come here quick,' said the boy, 'you won't believe what I heard!
Satan and the Lord are down at the cemetery dividing up the souls.'
The man said, 'Beat it kid, can't you see it's hard for me to walk.'
When the boy insisted though, the man hobbled slowly to the cemetery.
Standing by the fence they heard , 'One for you, one for me. One for
you, one for me.'
The old man whispered, 'Boy, you've been tellin' me the truth. Let's
see if we can see the Lord..'
Shaking with fear, they peered through the fence, yet were still
unable to see anything. The old man and the boy gripped the wrought iron
bars of the fence tighter and tighter as they tried to get a glimpse of the
At last they heard, 'One for you, one for me. That's all.. Now let's
go get those nuts by the fence and we'll be done.'
They say the old man made it back to town a full 5 minutes ahead of
the kid on the bike.

|Our seam caulk cracked, the fabricator came by today and this is what they left me with: about 1/4" section of old caulk (bright white) and the rest in a new color. This bugs me, but he said he can't do better. Should I call them back?

|No, however, you should put their name with that picture all over the internet.
You need a repairperson with an Invicon kit. They're from Austria and cost about $1,700.00. Akeimi makes one too.
Expect to pay about $350.00 for an inconspicuous, not invisible, repair.

|The new color is better than the old bright white. I'd want the rest of the old removed and replaced with the newer color.
- Posted by teachertile (My Page) on Mon, Nov 18, 13 at 16:08
|Why in the world couldn't he take out that 1/4"? That's weird!! I wouldn't be happy. At least the new caulk is a much better color.
|The new color is almost invisible and looks great! I wouldn't think removing that old bit would be too difficult. What reason were you given for that not being possible?
- Posted by ineffablespace (My Page) on Mon, Nov 18, 13 at 16:32
|I think it is against the wall at the back, or against a cabinet--making removal of that last bit more difficult without collateral damage? Just a guess.
- Posted by threeapples (My Page) on Mon, Nov 18, 13 at 17:48
|No idea what the reason was, but I'm not happy with it. I contacted the fabricator. I'll post back when they respond.

|An update: I left it alone and now this seam is a bright yellow. I am attaching a photo I just took. Does anyone know why the seam is now yellow only in the newly repaired section (Nov 2013) and how this can be fixed without damaging the edges of the marble?

|That looks like Danby-yes looks like the product they used was a transparent polyester adhesive that yellowed.
It can be removed and a water clear product can replace it.
Bellonzoni and Akemi make some excellent polyester products for white marble repairs and seams.
A bone fide stone refinisher would be more than happy and able to repair that for you.

The north lobe of the Thornton Quarry, looking up from the floor to Interstate 80, which crosses 300 feet above the north and the south sections of the quarry. The Metropolitan Water Reclamation District will use the north section for a flood-control reservoir. | Mike Nolan~Sun-Times Media
Updated: August 7, 2014 6:18AM
The Southeast Environmental Task Force will hold a Brown Bag Eco-Tour, the "Deep Tunnel Tour and Thornton Quarry," on July 12, according to a press release from the task force.
"It's a rare opportunity and a thrill to descend down into one of the largest quarries in the world," task force president Tom Shepherd said in the release.
The tour bus will depart at 10 a.m. from the Chicago Cultural Center at Randolph Street and Michigan Avenue in Chicago's Loop and is to return by 2 p.m.
The first stop will be the Thornton Quarry, one of the tunnel's temporary holding reservoirs for stormwater.
"The Deep Tunnel is quite an engineering feat," task force executive director Peggy Salazar said in the release. "Back at the pumping station, we take an elevator down and that's when you realize just how deep the Deep Tunnel is. This may be the last time we can go into the intended reservoir before it is filled with water."
Sometimes called the "Grand Canyon of the Midwest," according to the release, the quarry also is the site of a 450 million-year-old coral reef, and tour participants are provided samplings of crinoid, brachiopod and trilobite fossil treasures.
From there, the tour will go to the Metropolitan Water Reclamation District's site, where officials will take the group deep below ground level to see what goes on at the pumping station.
The Deep Tunnel Project, aka Tunnel and Reservoir Plan, is a large civil engineering project that aims to reduce flooding in the metropolitan Chicago area and to reduce the harmful effects of flushing raw sewage into Lake Michigan by diverting stormwater and sewage into several reservoirs around the city. It has been under construction for more than 30 years and will not be complete until 2029.
The guides at both venues are experts who know the business of quarrying as well as the history of the quarry, which dates to the 1830s, and how stormwater is treated in Chicago, according to the press release.
Tickets are $25 and space is limited.
Other upcoming tours are "Down in the Dumps" (Aug. 9) and the "Industrial Evolution Tour" (Oct. 4).

Jim Heins / Latin Burger And Taco (CLOSED)
Posted on 17. Feb, 2014 in Burgers, Coral Gables, Food Trucks, Owners
The food truck that started the craze in Miami, Latin Burger and Taco, recently opened the doors on its first ever brick and mortar location in the heart of Coral Gables. Chat Chow TV sat down with owner Jim Heins to find out more about his new restaurant, its menu and its famous burgers.
Guests can find the iconic look of the truck throughout the restaurant with the bright pink walls and black detailing. Decorating the walls is custom pop art of Heins' favorite artists eating burgers, which is a nod to the restaurant and to Heins love of art.
The restaurant's menu stays true the cuisine found in the Latin Burger and Taco trucks but serves a larger variety of offerings including more upscale tacos, and according to the Heins the burgers still remain king.
"Being from Texas and loving the taco tradition, I said we're going to do an upper-end taco," notes Heins. "We hired chefs and everything and our hamburgers are still outselling our tacos."
There's good reason for that as his Latin Macho burger has won many accolades including being named the "Best Dade County Burger" at the 2010 Burgie Awards. The burger is made with an Angus patty mixed with Argentine chorizo and special spices, and then topped with caramelized onions, Oaxaca cheese and a special red pepper mayo.
The burger is so good in fact that it landed on the Joe's Takeaway menu — the first item from an outside vendor to do so in more than 100 years.
Curious what inspired Heins to get into the food truck business to begin with? Or why he chose Coral Gables for his first location? Find out all that and more in the video above.

I went to latin burger and taco today because of your podcast. It was the worst place I have ever been in. The owner was there because they were having trouble with the credit cards but the cashier fixed it so we moved on. The food took years to cook. One order came normal and our other two orders done at the same time took 30 minutes more. The cashier told us when we aske that all burgers were well cooked because if not you would get sick. The fries were cold and tasteless, the meat did not taste like good meat and I order a fish taco which looked like a brown chicharroma nd it was supposed to be tilapia. I returned it and asked for my money but I did not insist because the poor cashier was in charge of taking orders, delivering them and cleaning the tables. The poor kids cooking for doing their best but were ill equipped to handle more tha. 3 orders at once. The only thing that I could say good about the place was the caramel it'd onion were the only thing that tasted good. Perhaps the ones they cook at Joe's are better. Too bad, I had good expectations. Best burger? Maybe in 2010, certainly not now.

Tere, it was actually worse than described. Two employees no showed then we had a complete system failure with over 100 people at lunch. disaster is a understatement. thankful that this is first time it happened. still using prime beef so not sure about that statement.

CHICAGO -- Ernie Terrell, whose brief reign as heavyweight champion ended with a punishing loss to Muhammad Ali in a 1967 grudge match, has died. He was 75.
The son of Mississippi sharecroppers and longtime Chicago resident worked as fight promoter after his boxing career ended. Terrell also twice ran unsuccessfully for alderman of his far South Side neighborhood and built a janitorial company that eventually employed 100 people. He died Tuesday in Chicago of complications from Alzheimer's disease, according to his wife Maxine.
Terrell's big break came in 1965, when he met Eddie Machen for the World Boxing Association title that was declared vacant after Ali insisted on a rematch with Sonny Liston before fighting a WBA-mandated contender. Terrell, who stood 6-foot-6 and deployed a withering jab with his 82-inch reach, won a unanimous 15-round decision over Machen and defended his crown against George Chuvalo and Doug Jones. In 55 professional fights, he posted a 46-9…Continue

Victor Ortiz was outclassed so badly by Floyd Mayweather, it has mentally taken an effect on him. he tries to ignore the fact that he was overwhelmed by pressure of the moment and the skills of Floyd Mayweather. Watching the fight again this week I can see how badly he was handling the moment, he fought like a kid with a balled up fist. Thrusting shots in the air, just missing Floyd and seeing how calm FLoyd was Ortiz just knew fouling and fighting dirty would cause some sort of drama and break the zone Floyd was in. Ortiz panics when faced with pressure he is not confortable with, and after that nigth he was just glad the fight was over, he woke up and congratulated Floyd just because he was happy to have the event over due to the pressure attack.

Looking fit and trim, Mexican ring legend Julio Cesar Chavez, 52, sparred four rounds in a boxing exhibition at the Centro de Usos Múltiples (C**) in Hermosillo, Sonora, Mexico. "El Gran Campeón Mexicano" first went two rounds with businessman Vicente Sagrestano Alcaraz, then stepped it up with two rounds against cruiserweight Luis "Indio" Garcia. Chavez thrilled the crowd of 3000+ by landing several thudding hooks to the liver, the trademark punch that made him a Hall of Famer.
"I'm too old," said Chavez, "but I still have a little left. Thank you all for coming and supporting us with a toy for underprivileged children. After ten years without doing it in the ring. I got tired and my reflexes are gone, but I gladly…

Recently Keith Thurman was getting boo'd when he didn't knockout Leonard Bundu. Although he dropped him early, Bundu got right back into the fight and he never quit. Keith boxed beautifully and cracked him with some good shots. Like Keith Thurman said post fight interview, "You can't knock everyone out". This is such a true statement. Users have left comments and stated that Sergey Kovalev didn't get boo'd when he dropped Bernard Hopkins and ended up going 12 rounds. Why so Biased?
I have the answer. I will reveal why. Sergey Kovalev knows he has power, but he doesn't brag about the power saying he will knock this person out, and I will knock that person out. He says he would like a "KO". If it comes it comes, if not I will just go the full rounds. I'm ready regardless. Switch to Keith Thurman and he says he is going to welcome Bundu to America with a…Continue

Recently I watched a Floyd Mayweather interview that was done by Fighthype. In the interview Floyd Mayweather brought up Manny Pacquiao being the A Side and he's the B Side .. blah blah blah .. we heard all that before. However, what shocked me was the fact he called Boxing Fans suckers in a very nice way.
PPV numbers were brought up and of course we know Manny is batting .300's and Floyd for the most part does 1 Million or sometimes less. The opponent you fight determines the PPV also. The Marcos Maidana fight did between 800,000 to 1 Million range both times. Floyd said he's entitled to a bad PPV night and he is right. However he said since he doesn't always do 1 Million buys, he makes up for it by j****** the consumer into paying $70-$80 dollars to watch it. We all knew that, but I didn't think you would have the guts to come out and…Continue

Jose Benavidez Jr. is one of the top prospects of Top Rank promotions that needed a huge come out fight, and the fight against the thought Mauricio Herrera, the fighter who should be the 140 champion of the world, he gave it his all, making many mistakes but fighting on and using his power to try and overwhelm, the older fighter. Herrera used body punches to set up his shots upstairs and dominated the second half of the fight. Jose tried his best but seemed to be stuck in one motion, and couldn't make the right adjustments.
Then there was the scorecard, in which after praising his daughter Julie Letterman she turned in one of the most controversial cards of the year. Nine rounds to three which showed us all that they don't care…Continue

Whoever is doing this terrible writing for Manny Pacquiao please stop, because it sounds more ridiculous as the days go by. Pacquiao don't know the meaning of the word induced but we are suppost to believe he made this statement. Fighting over money but still states that he is willing to fight for charity? Confused wait until you read it. Here is the Pacquiao statement...
"He (Mayweather) has reached a dead end. He has nowhere to run but to fight me. I will try my best to make this a thrilling and entertaining fight. But I doubt if he's gonna engage me in a slugfest. You all know his fighting style. Most of his previous fights, if not all, induced us to sleep." Pacquiao told Sky Sports.
"I know what I have to do. I will chase him…

4.0 out of 5 stars Great Battery Life/Pretty Good Phone too!!
I've been watching the HTC Thunderbolt 4G phone and finally gave up on it due to all the bugs and horrible battery life. So after reading several reviews on the Samsung Droid Charge, I decided to take the plunge. Here's how my first few days with the new phone went - the good and the bad. First some qualifiers - I live in the Maryland suburbs outside DC where there is...

I just upgraded my Blackberry Storm to the Droid Charge. I like the phone. The battery life is much better than the Droid X or Droid 2, similar to the storm. Screen display is awesome; there are some quirks when it appears to have a mind of its own. My dislikes, dropped calls and spotty reception. I still carry my Blackberry with me and compare signal strengths and the...

5.0 out of 5 stars Great service/value from Amazon. Greatest 4G phone w/ long battery life.,
P. To "PTo" (USA) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Samsung DROID CHARGE 4G Android Phone (Verizon Wireless) (Wireless Phone)
Updates / Further Notes About Battery Life after about a month of the original review:
I see a lot of people complaining about the Droid's battery. So, I thought I share my experience in how I get GREAT battery life from the Droid Charge every single day:
Simple Habits That I Develop:
- I leave it in 3G mode (CDMA) most of the time. It's more than fine for most web browsing. I only switch to 4G if I am downloading a big file, or streaming video from YouTube, etc. (BTW, in many cases, Verizon 3G is faster than my old HTC EVO on Sprint 4G!)
- Avoid using Skype!!! If I have Skype signed in, the battery is drained in 3-4 hours!
- Install the "Program Monitor" widget on home screen. It is VERY useful because it tells you how many active apps are running in the background. I always keep an eye on it to make sure I did not leave any power sucking apps running that I forgot to close.
- If you use GPS Navigation, remember to fully exit the app and/or turn-off the GPS when done.
- Turn-off WiFi if you are not using it. (I often forget to this.)
The above is really just common sense. I have NOT installed any "power trick" programs, such as JuiceDefender (I tried and uninstalled it). I leave GPS on most of the time. I am completely "stock" in terms of settings. I have 2 GMail and 1 Hotmail ActiveSync accounts and I let them sync using default settings. I have DoubleTwist which occasionally sync using WiFi. In other words, I don't really pay any special attention to saving power. And I STILL get at least 15 hours out of it most days. I typically starts at 8am, average about 30-60 minutes talk time in a day, and spend about 2 hours web browsing, playing games, reading news, email, etc. When I get home around 9pm, I normally still have at least 30% battery left if not more. I have the occasional car trips where I would use Google Navigation, and for short trips (less than 30 minutes) I don't even bother to plug the phone in anymore.
The same usage pattern on my HTC EVO would normally means needing to recharge by 2pm.
________Original Review Below___________
First of all, I want to say that Amazon is great. Shipping was fast. When I ordered the phone, the $199 price was $50 cheaper than even Verizon. They then dropped the price further to $149 a couple of days after I ordered. One pleasant phone call to Amazon, and they gave me a $50 refund without any hassle. Can't beat that!
OK. Now the phone. I came to this from a Sprint EVO 4G, and an AT&T iPhone 3GS before that. The Droid Charge is perhaps the most refined and advanced phone out there.
- Ridiculously long battery life, especially if you leave it on 3G. I can easily go a full day plus more on 3G, and a 8-10 hour day on 4G without any tricks, and without turning off GPS, Bluetooth, etc. all the time.
- Slim and lightweight, yet feels VERY good in the hand
- Large screen. As good as the iPhone4 screen, but WAY bigger.
- 4G LTE is really fast. It downloads large files faster than my office WiFi.
- 3G is not too shabby neither for web browsing, email, etc. I leave it on 3G most of the time. Based on my experience (in SF Bay Area), the Verizon 3G is faster or at least as fast as Sprint and AT&T 4G.
- Price. Particularly, you cannot beat the Amazon $149 price.
- I have no huge issue w/ the TouchWiz interface. It's not ridiculously snappy, but more than adequate.
- Finally, I think the shape and style is more attractive than your run-of-the-mill iPhone and clones.
- I love that the battery / back cover is plastic and replaceable ($9.99). Why bother with extra weight and bulk of a skin case, when you can get a new back cover for $10? I generally am very gentle with my phone and never get any scratches on the side anyway.
- The charger is the same tiny cube shape as the iPhone. Very compact.
- Camera is AWESOME.
- The tactile buttons are a mixed blessing. They feel great. But when I am lounging out on a bed and operating it with one hand, the touch buttons are easier to operate.
- Camera not very good with close up, and underexposes Flash photos (easy fix using the exposure compensation)
- It's not a dual core. But on the other hand, that's why the battery life is so great.
- The on-board memory is only 512MB, although I have not had any real life issues with this.
- No HDMI mirroring
I honestly think it's the best phone out there at the moment. The single greatest useful feature is the battery life. What a great sense of freedom!

This review is from: Samsung DROID CHARGE 4G Android Phone (Verizon Wireless) (Wireless Phone)
I have had my Droid Charge for three weeks, and I don't know how I lived without it! Battery life is very good now that I read the Task Manager section of the manual and know what I was doing wrong at first. The phone is excellent for texting, talking, emailing, calendaring, and sending pictures. The camera is truly amazing and works better than my "real" camera! I can also store all kinds of files and have easy access to them anywhere, and I was able to put all my MacBook's iTunes music on it via Double Twist. The phone is light, but feels well made. Did I mention the amazing clarity on the screen? I wear glasses with progressive lenses, but I have absolutely no trouble with the screen. I have found many useful apps, and I now use my phone each morning to do a quick check of the news and weather. With 4G service, the speed of everything (web, email) is phenomenal. I thought I'd get an iPhone since I am a MacBook and iPod Touch owner, but the iPhone won't access web pages that use Adobe Flash (which several sites I need to access for work do). I'm afraid to pinch myself because the Droid Charge is the phone I have been dreaming about, and if I'm still dreaming I don't want to wake up!

5.0 out of 5 stars Finally a phone I can live with for 2 years,
This review is from: Samsung DROID CHARGE 4G Android Phone (Verizon Wireless) (Wireless Phone)
First some background. You can call me a smartphone addict. I have had the following phones recently (not in order). HTC Thunderbolt, Samsung infuse, Iphone 4g, Nexus S, Droid X2, HTC incredible 2 and of course I had many of top 2010 phones for android. I work downtown Chicago and I take the train. I need a phone that gets reception on the train and works in my high rise offie building. Verizon is the only carrier which works. So I am limited to Verizon as long as I work downtown. Beleive me I tried AT&T and T Mobile with different phones and they do not work well at all.
The the DC (Droid Charge) meets all by criteria. I use Exchange for corporate email, and all phones do not work well on this.
DC does. Email clients are not all the same. DC works well. The display is really nice. Sreen to screen, Youtube and moviess all look great. The phone is very light and feels great in hand. The tbolt was so big and thick. This phone also allows screen shots a really cool feature. I have take some and shared with friends on facebook. I cool app from the market is pi cube a 3D cube which you an customize with your own pics. It shows off the great display. I have only had this phone now 1 full day and I am starting my second, so too early on the battery life but it has to be better than the horrible battery life on the tbolt and many of the other phones I tried. Performance not as fast as the tbolt but still acceptable.
reception so far better than the tbolt.
I love this phone and will keep for 2 years.

5.0 out of 5 stars Finally, the perfect phone,
This review is from: Samsung DROID CHARGE 4G Android Phone (Verizon Wireless) (Wireless Phone)
Super long battery life with everything turned on(iphone like battery life), the best screen on a phone - wow factor, stable and wifi-like data speed and call quality on verizon 4g lte (network is order of magnitude ahead of the competition). Runs all android apps and games flawlessly with no lag. What more can you ask for?
I consider myself a power user but not a spec geek, so the lack of gingerbread update & dual core does not bother me, as they have no impact on how I use my phone - it just needs to be fast, stable and last 24 hours. Everything on android right now works fast and perfect with this phone. By the time when dual core is actually being utilized as oppose to a spec innuendo the geeks obsess over, my 2 year contract will have expired for a new phone. This along with every other flagship phone will be nothing more than a $100 outdated doorstep on ebay.
Some perspective, I have tried the iPhone on AT&T (constant call drops, communication error running apps), the LG g2x dual-core android on T-Mobile(horrible signal strength, only has EDGE instead of even 3G in a lot of places) and the ThunderBolt on Verizon 4G LTE (This takes the cake - 4 hour battery life haha), before settling on the Samsung Droid 4G LTE.
Unfortunately your phone is only as good as the network, and in the US, there is just no comparison to verizon 4G LTE, so no matter how good the hardware is, if it's not on verizon 4G LTE it's meaningless.
To wrap it up, I finally found the perfect phone...for the next 2 years anyway :)

5.0 out of 5 stars Great Hearing Aid Compatiblity - Poor Battery Life - Easy to Use,
This review is from: Samsung DROID CHARGE 4G Android Phone (Verizon Wireless) (Wireless Phone)
Will try to touch on areas other reviews have not mentioned.
I am a senior citizen and this is my first smart phone. I was able to pick up on almost everything just from playing around with it a bit - everything except how to answer the phone when it rang. Finally called Samsung support. Agent did not have the best English and did not understand my question. Got to a supervisor who was easier to understand and who did understand the question.
**When phone is ringing and it is dark, scroll down from the very top left to bring up the phone., Then scroll the green button to answer.**
This phone has the highest hearing aid compatibility rating there is and works very well with my hearing aids - no lost words, no static - everything is great. My old phone dropped about 1 word in 3.
Phone does get quite warm when used.
Very poor battery life, especially if using any of the apps. OK if only using it for a regular phone, but not if want to do anything else. 4G internet use heats phone up and depletes the battery. Playing Angry Birds also really depletes battery. One reason I purchased this phone was to help keep the grandchildren occupied (frequently fly coast-coast with one) so the battery depletion rate is a big negative for me.
My screen is set to turn off after 30 sec, but it frequently turns itself off in only 5-10 seconds. I have to press the power button to turn the screen back on.
No manual anywhere. If one clicks on the ask a question button on the Samsung droid charge website, one is sent to a dead page.
Name stinks. Samsung - try searching for 'droid charge' and see what you come up with. Name makes it difficult to search for accessories; wish you had picked a different one.
Also wish you sold a good protective case.
I purchased the phone 1 week ago - the first day it was offered for sale.
UPDATE: Had the phone almost 2 months now. Love it even more as I find more and more things it can do. Just purchased a house and have been using it to connect my laptop to the internet as we don't have internet service yet (can't believe how frustrating and time consuming it can be to deal with V.. and CC for service. Understand other major providers are the same.) Having this phone takes the urgency off of getting a major provider. Husband has even agreed that it was money well spent!
UPDATE: April 2012 - The latest update has greatly improved battery life. Still not great, but noticeably better!

3.0 out of 5 stars It's NOT the hardware. It's the network.,
Tempting Reviews "Tempting Reviews" (Seattle, WA) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Samsung DROID CHARGE 4G Android Phone (Verizon Wireless) (Wireless Phone)
At least, that's what people would tell you. Realistically I find it to be a combination of the two. Anyway, this review is specific to comparison of 4G devices, NOT jumping from a 3G device to this.
I have owned the Thunderbolt since the early days of 4G. It has its issues, especially if you don't root it. But one thing about the Thunderbolt: I know what to expect of it day to day. I've only had one instance of erratic behavior and it hasn't happened since. I recently considered the Charge as a potential superior battery replacement to the Thunderbolt. What I found was rather shocking.
First, the build quality of the Charge is identical to its 3G brothers; the Fascinate, Captivate, Vibrant. Cheap plasticky shell with no real feeling of durability. However, the Charge's side bezel reminds me of a BlackBerry Curve the way it's designed. I'm sure that wasn't accidental. From a general solidity perspective the Thunderbolt and the LG Revolution both run circles around the Charge. If you're the type of person who likes a feather light phone you probably won't really care. To put it in perspective, I would get this for a girl in a hot minute.
But what I found intriguing about the Charge is that it does get superior battery life to the Thunderbolt. The problem is why: the Charge has many network-related issues that cannot be explained, and no real clear way to work around these issues. First, the phone took hours to actually activate. Apparently the software has been configured to auto-activate itself, but this failed numerous times. I had to continually power cycle to get it to finally click through and accept the activation, and even then it still said it wasn't activated on the last reboot. Next, the phone struggled to maintain a 4G signal, even when the Thunderbolt right next to it was surfing along happily on 4G with no hiccups. That indicates a problem with the reception for the phone...and given the case material for the Thunderbolt, I would expect it to have more issues than the Charge, but realistically the Thunderbolt seemed better capable of maintaining a 4G signal. Once connected to 3G it was of course rock solid, but you don't buy a 4G phone to do 3G, so I was thusly disappointed with this. It's unfortunate, because outside of the build quality, I might have been tolerant of everything else, but the inability to sustain 4G is a dealbreaker for me. Unfortunately I can't prove it to the local Verizon Wireless store because they don't even get 4G in there. It's a miracle they manage to sell any such phones.
Where the Charge exceeded over the Thunderbolt is in general microphone and speaker quality. The Charge's microphone was able to recognize my voice extremely well, and the speaker is at least twice as loud as the Thunderbolt on the loudest setting. There are also some vocal quality settings you can adjust on the Charge that are not present on the Thunderbolt. Additionally, the Chaarge seemed less affected by wind noise than the Thunderbolt.
I'm not suggesting you steer away from this phone if you're in a strong 4G area, but I am warning you that even though the signal might be strong, you may still experience issues staying connected to 4G. Even if it does connect, you might not be able to browse, which indicates a connection issue. The Thunderbolt at least has a way around this by way of programmer codes; the Charge presently has no such codes. The other issue is that HTC is more apt to update the software than Samsung, so you may be stuck with older firmware, as is what happened with the Fascinate.
There are other features that I have purposely glossed over, such as the Touchwiz interface and such. But I do so because I want the reader to understand that the biggest, most important feature of any phone is the ability to handle its calls and data (if applicable) properly. If a phone is sold as a 4G phone, it better be able to do 4G with minimal issues. I'm not suggesting the Thunderbolt doesn't have its share of issues. Rather, I had substantially less data and call issues with the Thunderbolt than with the Charge. If you decide on the Charge, make sure you are happy with it, run it through its paces, and don't be afraid to return it if it doesn't work for you.

5.0 out of 5 stars Try before you buy,
This review is from: Samsung DROID CHARGE 4G Android Phone (Verizon Wireless) (Wireless Phone)
Try this phone in your local verizon store before you go out and read unfounded reviews or buy the phone anywhere. Samsung in my opinion has done a great job on this phone and on their Galaxy line.In my personal experiences with Samsung they do care about their clients, unfourtantly when it comes to carriers software upgrades or hardware may change from original design that Samsung intended to originally sell. Thunderbolt is a Sprint Evo for Verizon with some changes in hardware to accomodate carrier's request. I test phones for different carriers and get to try out many different phones and i have tested this phone for a couple of months. For my personal phone i have the Samsung Fascinate but will be moving to the Droid Charge when i upgrade later this year, so far Samsung products have been great.

1.0 out of 5 stars I really dislike my Samsung Charge!,
J. Battan (Portland, OR USA) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Samsung DROID CHARGE 4G Android Phone (Verizon Wireless) (Wireless Phone)
After using my Samsung Charge Android Verizon phone for the past month, I must say I'm very disappointed in it. First, may I say I'm quite experienced in mobile devices and computers, being in IT for 30 years and having owned over 15 smartphones over the years, including iPhones, BlackBerries, and Windows Mobile. On the pro side, the Charge has a nice display, and 4G data service is REALLY fast when it's available, which for me isn't too often. The Verizon data service is more reliable in that it doesn't get clogged like AT&T's 3G service does in major metro areas. I haven't had a dropped call yet. And I get access to the filesystem. Now, on to the problems. The Charge uses battery power amazingly fast. I couldn't go more than 8 hours of minimal use with the standard battery. With the extended battery, which weighs a lot and makes the handheld huge, only goes about 14 hours before being at 10%. And I don't even have WiFi or Bluetooth or GPS or mobile hotspot turned on, and have few data sync apps going. It can barely keep the same charge when powered through a USB port or a car battery. Only with the AC adapter will it charge more quickly, and even that takes 3x as long as my BlackBerry. The user interface is very slot and inconsistent. It takes a good five seconds to get to the phone screen after pressing the phone icon. Entering a calendar entry start time took me 20 sec once while the phone was doing who knows what. No, I haven't loaded on any malware or CPU-hogging apps. Button presses don't always take, or if they do there's no change while it thinks, so I don't know that it recognized the press and I press again. Updating an app fails about half the time. Apps crash regularly, including mainstream ones like Pandora and Meebo. The GPS is next to useless; it can take 10 minutes to acquire a signal and start doing turn-by-turn directions. The camera is so-so, but it regularly gives moiré patterns, and it crashes the whole phone if I use the flash (I have to reboot). When I turn off the sound, apps still can make sounds. I need a separate file transfer app that rarely works the second time after a reboot. The On button is poorly placed opposite the volume button, so I often press it when pressing the volume button. Sometimes I can't answer a call; I swipe to accept it but the screen is totally unresponsive. The data service often goes between 4G, 3G, and 1X all within 20 minutes of sitting in the exact same spot. You have to kludge together Outlook integration with a couple different apps that are hard to configure, whereas it's easy on the iPhone. The Gmail app UI is pretty bad. Voice quality is warbly. I can't believe I'm going to have to live with this thing for two years!

1.0 out of 5 stars Just not reliable, buy it from Verizon if you must.,
This review is from: Samsung DROID CHARGE 4G Android Phone (Verizon Wireless) (Wireless Phone)
Ordered this from Amazon for what I thought was a great price at the time, I was wrong (see below).
Original phone I got could not record video unless it was freshly rebooted. Talked to Amazon and they agreed to send me a replacement. The second phone wouldn't recognize the SD card (neither the one it came with or the one from the first set) so I sent that one back and asked for another. The third set would not recognize the SIM card. I finally just decided that video recording was something I could live without and sent the third set back to Amazon and told them I'll just live with the original as is - my mistake.
About a month later the set just stopped connecting to any data source, Wifi, 3G or 4G. After a few days though it magically started working again. I have have random reboots, missed calls, random notifications sometimes days late (I had none of this on my OG droid which I used in the same area) since then. The battery life can be OK but I have had it last as little as 8 hours from full charge to the phone telling me to charge it but I knew this coming in that a 4G phone would not get me great battery life.
My big problem though is that I am stuck with a defective phone that seems to be slowly getting worse. I contacted Amazon and they said they would take the phone back since they could not provide me with a working model, however I used my Verizon upgrade to get this phone so the refund I'd get from Amazon doesn't come anywhere near the price of getting me any other smartphone from Verizon. So basically I can get $199 back for this set but would have to pay full retail price (generally about $650) for a replacement phone. Verizon also will not help despite the first person I talked to saying they wanted to take ownership of this problem and they insist on telling me what a great phone I have and that they get virtually no complaints about these sets.
So buyer beware - I generally like Amazon BUT had I paid a bit more and bought this phone from Verizon themselves I might be able to get resolution. As it is, I guess I'm stuck with a "premium" phone that never fully worked and will continue to slowly die for the next two years and a cell plan that I can't really take advantage of.

5.0 out of 5 stars Best 4G phone in terms of battery life...but some effort is required.,
This review is from: Samsung DROID CHARGE 4G Android Phone (Verizon Wireless) (Wireless Phone)
When Amazon set the Droid Charge to one penny, I jumped on the deal. And I think people still should, even though there are now three 4G alternatives in the market...
So the main issues for this phone I encountered in the first few days. First, the stock antenna for this phone may suck depending on your service area. I had a weird issue where my phone would go mute randomly in the middle of a call and I would have to restart the phone for anyone to hear me. When you search the internets, this issue is partly Verizon's fault, so it's not inherent to the phone hardware. Another issue: the battery drains if you're in an area with weak signal, which is typical of many smartphones.
After a few days of carefully following instructions, I now have an awesome phone. It gets on average 29 hours of battery (minimum: 12 hours on heavy use --> GPS + 4G; maximum: 2 days on light use!) and I don't have call issues.
But some tweaking is required. For people who are interested in 4G phone for 1 penny with long battery life:
1) Go to [...]
2) Root your phone and put a custom kernel on it.
3) Put a Gingerbread ROM on it (Gummy Charged) and update to the newest antenna firmware.
4) Calibrate your battery.
5) For even better battery life, install Green Power Manager app.
Also, for people that may find all of this tweaking intimidating, all that's really being done is a phone software update that Samsung is currently rolling out right now. So in about a month, an OTA update will give you the improved battery life and antenna that I currently have. I still recommend a power manager app that turns on/off your data so that you improve battery life and ration your data (this advice is for all Verizon data users).
But in the end of the day, the developer involvement in this phone has truly utilized it's hardware capabilities, and with this phone's specs and current price, I'm looking forward to what will be done to make this phone faster and more beautiful.

2000 Lincoln LS Question: why does ac warm up under acceleration?
Answer #1Justin Case Auto from Justin Case Automotive Repair, Inc., October 23, 2013, 12:11Technician
If the pressures are good when it goes warm and the outlet pipe from the evaporator is still cold at that time it may be a problem with the ATC system in the vehicle.
Replyhammer29, October 23, 2013, 12:32Rookie
the low side pressure does drop to about 20 lbs under throttle. is there a problem with the thermo control unit? also I tried the heater side and no heat came out.
ReplyJustin Case Auto, October 24, 2013, 04:11Technician
20 lbs is a little low, one would think the cycling switch would cut off the compressor at that pressure but that would not be your heating up problem as long as the compressor is staying engaged.
If the inside does not go to heat either then it could be the temperature blend door motor under the dash.
