Perfect 2" hitch for 2013 Outback. I took the bumper off to install the hitch to avoid drilling the holes. The hitch looks good. Is under the bumper and doesn't sticks out. First i was thinking about Curt because of people reviews, but for Curt i would have to drill extra holes in my car. I would buy it again.

I put a 2" Draw-Tite on my Subaru Outback. It looks better that I thought it would. It is closer to the bumper that I expected (good). It is about 3-1/2" inside the edge of the bumper with out a ball hitch on (also good). Installation went pretty well. The bumper and subsequently ordered accessories arrived within a few days using standard shipping.

(Alright, I know it's been a while since I've posted here. Sorry.)
We're trying to establish our lives… trying to create and build, morph and mold the life we want to live. So far I've posted about a limousine and pool.
Fun, sure. But not exactly useful on lifestyle design. So I took a break and really started breaking down what I wanted to do with this blog… because I do want to do it.
I wrote a lot in pen and pencil and think I may actually have a plan now. So let's give it a whirl…
When you see someone else being successful, do you think "Why not me?"?
You should!
Because why not you? Get up on yourself. Lay off yourself.
Feeling envy for someone or jealousy is a limiting mindset. It's a scarcity mindset. And that will get you NOWHERE.
The true fact is that success is unlimited and EVERYONE can have it ALL AT ONCE. It's a fact.
Search your feelings Luke. You know it to be true. So get your mind around this. Really. This is super important stuff.
Why is that? Why is it that success is unlimited and available to everyone at once?
It's because success is not a product. It's not a commodity. It doesn't run out. There's not a finite amount of it. It exists in abundance within every single one of us. So when you see someone who's successful and you feel anger or envy about that, you're cutting yourself off from your own success.
In fact, if you simply change your mindset and feel happiness or thankfulness for them you're activating your own success.
This is because the fact that that person has success means that YOU and everyone can have success to. His or her success shows the possibility of your success. It's an indicator, not an inhibitor.
Success is a good thing for everyone. Instead of scoffing, try getting in touch with that person whose success you see and thanking/applauding him/her and then asking if you can learn from 'em.
And suddenly… Boom!… now you're on the road to your own success.
Where did I learn all this? I learned it from Grant Cardone. Check out his book The 10X Rule. And Sell Or Be Sold. I also learned it from this guy who got me into an entrepreneur coaching program that has completely revolutionized my life.
This shift in your mindset is a way to design your life. It's probably an overlooked one, at that. Because if you're scoffing at someone who has success and yet you want it yourself, you're sending mixed signals to yourself and out into the God-Universe-Spirit (GUS).
So if you change your mindset to celebrate success when you see it, in this way you'll attract success to yourself. You'll attract all good things to your life. You'll begin to live as the natural producer of good energy that you were born to be.

Shortlisted for the Dundee International Book Prize, Necropsy in E Minor is the tale of a young college professor who sits down to write what he calls a "memoir," but which really only records the past six months of his life (with numerous digressions), and ends, with the last line, after a richly devastating encounter, at the moment of writing.
Who is this person? That is kept a secret, despite the fact that he is writing for no audience other than himself. His name does not appear, but those of others do, necessary to ensure the accuracy of the anagrams and puns that have helped map his universe since he found "The Note." Given his disposal to interpret this anonymous confessional/fantasy story, an endeavor undertaken with the firm belief that it was written for him, by someone he knows, and purposefully left for him to find.
Having abandoned the scholarly methodologies and subjects that would actually allow him to attain tenure, our professor on the lam performs all manner of linguistic analyses of the note, drives around the rim of Florida (the pilgrimage method, fittingly circular), desperately uses inkblots, the I Ching, and tarot cards for practical advice, adopts a cat named Sanity, becomes an amateur ornithologist, develops a theory of "instantaneous architecture," endures a shamanic experience, and eggs himself on with the hope that, no matter what happens, his "memoir" might one day be found by archaeologists and thereby provide a key to human life at the close of the twentieth century.
Alan Ramón Clinton currently lectures at Santa Clara University in California.
He is the author of a scholarly monograph, Mechanical Occult: Automatism, Modernism, and the Specter of Politics (Peter Lang, 2004) and a volume of poetry, Horatio Alger's Keys (BlazeVox, 2008).
This fall he will appear as guest editor for a volume of 2nd Ave Poetry entitled New Poetics of Magic.read more

"Good listen but predictable"
This is my second Jojo Moyes listen and this one is as good as the last. Very entertaining chick book. Easy listening.
Tell us about yourself!
"Just buy it."
Wow. There's not much I can say because at no point did any of part of this audio book let me down. First of all, I can't remember loving characters as much as this. Not only did the author create fascinating and fully-realized people, but the narrator lent a stunning performance that brought them to heart-breaking life. The two main characters alone are enough for me to five star this book, but everything else is near perfection as well. The story had me entranced and the ending was moving. For those who fear the sap factor, don't. This isn't cheesy by any means, nor is it chick-lit. I will be listening to it again, and will forever remember it with fondness.
"This isn't "chick lit," guys."
Read this on a whim...thinking it to be the dreaded "chick lit," but going for it anyway. I was surprised and quite happy to find it isn't of that genre. I don't cry at movies. I don't sniffle when reading/listening to books. This one got me...and I knew how it would end early on in the story. Good thing I wasn't driving while listening...
Addicted to Audible!
"Not what you would expect"
I was not sure what to expect with this book,I purchased it based on the reviews here. I was not disappointed at all. I think the subject was explored with dignity and realism. I was happy that the author did not decide to make the story unreal by writing a Hollywood Happy Ending. The character development of Lou was excellent. It was hopeful despite being sad. The reader was excellent. I would highly recommend this audio
"Couldn't wait to finish. Didn't want it to end."
Absolutely. The story was compelling and handled realistically. The narration was also quite good.
I liked the topic and the fact that it was handled in a way that avoided being overly sentimental or horribly maudlin.
I have not listened to Susan Lyon before so I can't compare. But I would happily listen to something else she narrates.
Yes, I really was so anxious to learn how the story was going to play out. But at the same time, I was enjoying it so much I didn't want it to end.
This is the first book in memory that I simultaneously couldn't wait to finish, yet didn't want to end. The book could have been extremely sappy and sentimental or horribly maudlin, but happily Moyes did a fabulous job of not exploiting all the drama. Had she done that this could have easily turned out to be a very different book. A great story and a wonderful "listen". 5 stars - It was amazing!
I'm am avid reader who has found I can fit in more books by listening when I drive. I'm a busy mom/grandma who likes to travel and reading is my relaxation so I choose books that keep my interest.
"Enjoyable story without being trite"
The premise of this story seems ripe for a trite sort of love story, but this story is richer and more realistic. None of the main characters is given an easy way out and the connections between people that are formed are believable and inspiring. If you like stories about real people and how enriching change can be, listen to this story.
I love Harry Potter, Joshlyn Jackson, Kate Morton and just losing myself in a good story.
"Top Five"
I loved the banter between Will and Louisa. Their relationship was unique and special, and I felt for both of them.
I loved that I totally empathized with all the characters in the book.
Her performance of Louisa was excellent. She conveyed the words and emotions perfectly of all the characters.
I think when Steven said Will had pneumonia, I realized where the book was headed and it made me bawl.
And, of course, the reading of Will's letter in the end.
This is one of my top five all time favorite books ever.
"Had potential, but ultimatly disappointing"
i had huge expectations for this book... But i was disappointed. I do not regret reading it, because it gave some insight into what it would be like to be a caregiver for a quadriplegic person BUT it gave v little insight into the feelings and thoughts of the person with quadriplegia.
Strangely, even though the book is told mainly from Lou's viewpoint, at some of the most emotional moments, the author turns to a third person's viewpoint. Disappointingly, we get very little of Will's viewpoint.
So while the book was engrossing and interesting and slightly educational, it fell short on the emotions, and failed to surprise me overall. There were also lots of details of secondary character's lives that could have been built into the story more engagingly, but in the end fell flat.
So i do not regret reading it, and it has made me want to read more stories involving main characters with disabilities, but i did not think it did a great job of it, was hoping for more.
The main narration was very good, though.
Audible editor and data evangelist. Lover of fiction, classics, thrillers, celebrity memoirs, and quirky teen novels.
Don't let the cover fool you, Me Before You is a gut-wrenching original novel that will repeatedly tug at your heart and then stomp all over it – only to leave you coming back for more. In this thought-provoking story, Jojo Moyes has painted unforgettable characters that are honest and captivating, challenged with the impossible, and brought to life by a brilliant multicast performance.
"Most pathetic/clueless female character ever."
A rewrite with a new female lead not written to be so lame and pathetic.
The complete lack of any backbone or intelligence of the lead character, Louisa. How readers (or listeners) can like this book with such a disappointing character is beyond me. The most obvious things she can't figure out, anticipate or wrap her head around? Please. And the description of the book and some reviewers comment on how close her family is. All that was mentioned is how often her family makes fun of her, calls her stupid and has absolutely no expectations of her beyond getting a new job at a cafe, if she's lucky. In my world, that's not a close or supportive family. I feel like the author expects readers themselves to be a bit clueless to accept anything in this story.
Maybe. She wasn't great, but she didn't make the story any worse, that's for sure.
Don't waste a credit or your $. There are SO many better stories out there!!! If a tear jerker is what you're after, listen to something beautiful like The Power of One by Bryce Courtenay - an amazing story that will make your heart break at times.

After everything, Kris Humphries likely ends up with Brooklyn
Jul 14, 2012, 4:01 PM EDT
He might have gone to Orlando. Then there were talks with Cleveland to facilitate a bigger trade with Orlando. Charlotte reached out and wanted to talk deal.
But after a pretty crazy couple of weeks, it looks like Kris Humphries will be back with the Nets next season, reports Howard Beck of the New York Times.
They are working to re-sign Kris Humphries, their starting power forward, who appears likely to return after flirting with the Charlotte Bobcats.
General Manager Billy King said a deal with Humphries was "close," but added, "It's a process." He also confirmed that the Nets were working on a deal with Jerry Stackhouse, the veteran guard.
The Nets simply can offer more money. The Nets are offering two-years at $20 million or three years at $26 million, according to Rick Bonnell of the Charlotte Observer.
I'll ignore his choice in women and say that on the court he is a quality NBA power forward. Last season he gave the Nets 13.8 points and 11 rebounds a game (rebounding matters playing next to Brook Lopez) with an above-average PER of 17.8. He's no All-Star, but he's a good NBA player who turns 27, so the three-year deal the Nets are offering sounds like a good match.
Look for this to get done soon.

From the Nets perspective at least they were able to hold onto the assets they used as bait. In fact these guys are choosing to come back after that which really should leave no bad feelings because it's their choice to return. Him and Lopez obviously
- beagle11 - Jul 14, 2012 at 6:04 PM
This guy is a solid rotation player. PERIOD. Good on the Nets to keep him
- md228010 - Jul 14, 2012 at 8:23 PM
A double double+ each game gets you 10 mill per year. I'd say that sounds about right if he can keep his personal life out of the media and out of Brooklyn basketball. No more Kanye bicker.
- saint1997 - Jul 14, 2012 at 8:51 PM
He will probably leave after 72 days…
- Jecurb - Jul 15, 2012 at 2:45 AM
I say let him continue to have his fun in the sun (and in the media). The guy put up some very solid numbers in the midst of all of that mess without being a go-to player. Withe the type of players that Brooklyn has assembled, they will need some workhorses and he seems to have made a solid name for himself on that tip.

Kanye West is a punk, his little ass would never say anything to Humphries face to face. Humphries has become a solid 4 in the league. He woud have been perfect on the Heat.

Drinking window not specified (Add My Dates)
730 Tasting Notes
Very deep inky garnet with bricking. Nice nose of plums, black cherries, a bit of creosote. Acid balance on the palate is somewhat sprightly, but definitely not juicy or tart. Age shows its hand in a good way. Flavors show a cooked aspect. Finish is short and, well, short, with light grip and low tannins. No one thought that I would still be drinking this Graff Family bottle 7 years after harvest. It's interesting, yes, and definitely drinkable, but the basis here was not much to start with. So it's interesting but that's about all.
A little hotter than I remembered this time around, but an amiable Rhonifornian nonetheless.

Turkish Organization Hacked the Website of Bulgarian Orthodox Church
The official website of the Bulgarian Orthodox Church was hacked by the Turkish organization Milli Gucler on Thursday.
The home page displays the Turkish flag and the following text: "The official website of the Bulgarian Orthodox Church is hit in response to the vandal attack on the Djumaya mosque in Plovdiv.
Those are offensive acts against the Turkish-Muslim minority in Bulgaria and an attack on the cultural heritage of the country, because the mosques are part of the cultural heritage of Bulgaria.
Whoever organized this barbaric aggression, must now that the Turkish-Muslim minority is not defenceless and there are forces who are watching over it and are ready to defend it.
The silence of the Bulgarian Patriarchate must be interpreted as a tacit agreement with the aggression on Muslim religious temples.
The punitive actions against the enemies of the Turkish-Muslim minority on part of Milli Gucler (National Forces) are neither first, nor would be the last. The attacks will continue in full intensity. You will hear from us ever more often and you will witness our power.
Milli Gucler would like to remind that we have nothing against Christianity and the attack is reciprocal measure against the increasingly frequent physical attacks on the values of the Turkish-Muslim minority."
The website also plays a piece, entitled "War" from the soundtrack of the Turkish historical soap opera "The Magnificent Century".
In February a gang of football hooligans attacked with stones the Djumaya mosque in downtown Plovdiv in protest of a court decision ordering the Karlovo municipality to relinquish a former mosque to the Muslim Faith in Bulgaria.
Police apprehended more than 120 people. Eight were sentenced for hooliganizm.
The Milli Gucler group on Facebook has 17 members and the last activity was from May 2012.
The blog of the organization contains posts in Bulgaria on history - most of them recent.
Neither of the sites seems to take responsibility for the attack on the Bulgarian Orthodox Church website.

AMMAN - From furniture to cosmetics to food, dozens of Palestinian companies are seeking new markets in Jordan. Fifty-seven Palestinian companies, including seven from Gaza, were in Amman this week for the first-ever exhibition in Jordan to find local partners and boost investment in the Palestinian territories.A tent in a large yard in Amman's Sports City became a vibrant, makeshift market. Organizers said 20,000 people visited the exhibit over the three days it was held. George Kusa, the manager of Anoud Educational Toys in East Jerusalem had many customers, especially among the younger crowd who came to browse toys that teach the alphabet and numbers, as well as books and dictionaries."People here like Palestinian products," Kusa told The Media Line. "Anything that comes from Palestine is appreciated by Jordanians," Kusa said his business was thriving in the 1980s and early 90s but later took a nose dive due to tightened restrictions and increasing competition from cheaper, Chinese-made products. He said the close family ties between Jordanians and Palestinians in the West Bank will give his business a boost.Jordan is home to the largest number of Palestinian refugees in the world, with more than two million officially registered as refugees. The majority have been naturalized as Jordanian citizens. Palestinians with Jordanian passports enjoy full citizen rights, aside from working in sensitive security posts.Palestinians in Jordan have been a dominant factor in local politics as well as leading agents in the business sector. Palestinian companies hope to make use of Jordan's efficient transport network to sell products across the Arab world.Palestinian businessmen say they came to explore new options as their industries are facing an uncertain future under continued Israeli restrictions. They believe Jordan represents a perfect launching pad for Palestinian products to reach international and regional markets which would help end dependence on Israel.The West Bank's close proximity to Amman's Airport as well as strong ties between Jordanian businesses and European and Gulf markets will help the initiative to succeed, said Abdul Munim Shareef, spokesperson of the exhibition."Our future project is to open a market for Palestinian products across the Arab region. Our products are competitive due to the high quality and good price," Shareef told The Media Line. Shareef said the oil-rich Gulf states were once a major Palestinian market, but former Palestinian leader Yasser Arafat's support of former Iraqi president Saddam Hussein's invasion of Kuwait in 1990 dealt a heavy blow to Palestinian products sold there, including the famous white limestone imported to build homes."We are trying to revive the market of marble and limestone sales in the Gulf region after having lost it in the early 1990s," he said.The three-day exhibition closed amid high interest from local and regional investors, according to organizers. The businessmen say new markets will help reduce unemployment in the Palestinian territories."As Palestinian companies, we are seeking agents and investors from Jordan to sell Palestinian products. This will reduce unemployment. Our ability to market our products outside the Arab region can reduce unemployment rate in the Palestinian market," said organizer Shareef.The exhibition was held as poverty and unemployment increased in the West Bank this year, hovering at around 20 percent of a total population of 2.6 million. The aid-dependent Palestinian economy in the West Bank is facing a deepening financial crisis due to a drop in aid from Western backers and wealthy Gulf states as well as Israeli restrictions on trade.A brief report by the IMF on the economic situation in May described the Palestinian Authority's fiscal crisis as "very challenging" and said foreign aid to the PA was "far less than needed to finance the deficit" of around $1.3 billion in 2012.The Palestinian Minister of Trade Jawad Naji said Jordan and other markets are needed to reduce the dependence of Palestinian industries on the Israeli market."Unfortunately, the Palestinian economy has been linked to the Israeli economy by force, while the Palestinian people are trying to disentangle this connection," Naji was quoted as saying by Jordan's official news agency, Petra.The trade exchange between the Palestinian territories and Israel was $3.5 billion a year last year, compared to just $100 million with Jordan. Naji said Palestinian products reach nearly 60 countries but more investment is needed.The economic crisis in the West Bank and Gaza has deepened. Growth is down from a peak of 9 percent in 2010 to 5.4 percent in the first quarter of 2012. The crisis also stems from the division between the Gaza Strip, which is run by the Islamist Hamas, and the West Bank, headed by Palestinian Authority President Mahmoud Abbas's dominant Fatah party. Participants here say economic cooperation between Gaza and the West Bank could help bridge the political gap between the two sides. Several business leaders from Gaza have been making their way to Jordan during the past weeks to iron out agreement of cooperation, said Palestinian officials.Maher al Taba, the spokesman of the Gaza delegation, said prospects for future cooperation with Jordan are promising after the two sides agreed to boost their trade and allow Palestinian products easy access to the local market. Meanwhile, Jordanian businesses say they also want a reciprocal chance to expand their presence in the Palestinian market. Hatem al Halawani, the head of Jordan's Chamber of Industry said the governments on both sides must facilitate the flow of goods, unify standards and improve taxation and customs procedures.Jordan has improved its road network that links its borders with Israel and the Palestinian territories. A major highway that extends from the Jordan River to Amman Airport is about to be completed. A developed network will help encourage trade, but business leaders say officials must also remove all obstacles that impede smooth flow of goods between Palestinian territories and rest of the world.For more stories from The Media Line go to www.medialine.org
