Great handling, feels like the vehicle is glued to the road due to the SH-AWD.
The exterior styling of most of the Honda family of cars, from the RL to the Element have been poor. The Acuras now have this strange smile or grin, too weird. This is a company that makes great engines but has been unable to come up with an iconic image such as a grill (think BMW) or a styling cue that defines the line. I have been looking at the 2005 to 2008 Acura RL as a possible used car purchase (much cheaper than their competitors) because of the awd. They are much better looking than the 2009.
I like the new grille. I like the new Acura look better than the last gen by far....Acuras for me have not stood out in a while, so I'm glad to see some bold new styling, even down to taking a chance with a big distinctive grille.
What I once thought was the most attractive luxury car on the market is now just another Saturn wet dream. Acura...fire your entire design team.
My family enjoy acura/honda products, but this new look for the RL leaves me wondering, why? How could a vehicle that looks this bad get the green light--you can not tell me that everyone in the design room was like "wow, this is our best looking flagship ever," because it by far is not. It is my understanding that with the 2000 TL, American engineers took control of the design. Is this the case of the RL? Just curious, because there is definately something wrong when your flapship sedan looks like a descarded picasso.
What has happened to Acura???I have a 98 RL. That car is a true masterpiece. It is very masculine, refined, majestic, and clean. This looks like a cheap Korean knockoff of a Civic.
This is a little disturbing, as the satisfied an apparently rare owner of a 2006 RL, I overall love the car, smooth, powerful, great sound system and acura quality but like everyone else I saw the only thing missing, V8, or at least turbo V6. The "accord on steroids" styling didn't bother me, but I saw a few tweaks that would step it up. Acura seems to have just reached into the bargain bin and created some sort of frankenstein, much like the incredibly boring and underpowered 3.5RL. The side lines look a 2002 TL, the front and rear seem hastily thrown together and put on a car they weren't designed for. Of course, the grill, the single worst design cue ever thought up, just getting attention isn't enough Acura, nix the grill now. Like I said the 2006 RL may not be super exciting, but at least it looks like it was al designed at the same time.
I can't belive this is the best acura could do. Even the lexus Es looks better. One look I was like WOW that's UGLy, and that's putting it mildly. I would the laughing stock if I was to stop by mu locate detailed center.
I've a 2005 TL and have been waiting for the '09 RL, suspecting that the 3.7 liter engine would appear and hoping for heated rear seats. Well, the 2009 model has what I want on the inside, but the exterior is reminiscent of Quasimodo. It's not just bad, it's embarrasingly ugly: all angles and slabs and plain wrong. The current RL is understated but coherent and graceful enough. I could live with the old RL exterior and would love to be cosseted by the 2009 interior. But there's no way I could face watching people vomit as I drove by in a 2009 model. Nor could I close my eyes each morning and grope my way to the car in order to avoid having to look at it before I was safely inside. So, sadly, I'm abandoning my intention to purchase an 2009 RL and will look instead to the Jaguar XF or even, shudder, a Lexus. Acura's styling team and senior management should be fired immediately for ruining the exterior of a good car.
I think the guy that designed this grille may also be responsible for one other creation we all may be able to recall... Anyone remember the Family Truckster from the Trip to Wally World (The car that Clark killed Aunt Edna's dog with)? To put it mildly, George Barris you are not Sir.
like everybody in here, hate it!!!
wow, as a diehard Honda/Acura fan its really sad to see the way things are going. This soo does not look like the TOP dog in the whole Honda lineup, its actually quite sad, and Im scared to see what they could do later to the TL n TSX. I also dislike the new Pilot. A lot. Whats happening with them?! didnt they learn something from the american brands??!
Can you say "a deer hit by a Acura TL". I think you can.
what in the world are you doing acura.
Dude, I didn't like how the old one looked, and I don't like how this one does. I would rather buy a used one now. Seriously.
I agree that this grill seems very cheap for Acura standards. It really does looks like an American car. Come on Acura you can come up with some better designs! I believe that this design is terrible actually and I am very surprised. Is Honda trying to phase out the Acura brand or what?
The grill is ugly because of the fat "wings" on either side of the emblem. What they should have done is removed that part out but keep the rest, then spread the chrome across the top of the headlamps to give the front a more aggressive, accented look.
How about they call it "The new Corolla/Matrix/Camry copycat grille". At first glance it reminded me of a Toyota Camry. I'm not sure what happened to the design dept at Honda. The new Civic was great, as well as the RDX and the MDX, and now the copycat designs and the lump shaped Accord. What the heck?
thats the ugliest accord ive ever seen. plain and simple.
I hope Acura has something in the works to make up for this abomination they call the 2009 RL. This is indeed no way for a flagship to compete in this market. If the RL at least offered the option of a V8, it would be a bit more tasty, but first Acura needs to get power to the right wheels first.
"PS-Even the Accord looks better"I wouldn't go that far... The Accord Sedan looks pretty ugly.In terms of a luxury flagship vehicle, this takes the cake for being the ugliest.I don't care how much power it has, if I see this on the road, I'm just going to laugh.The rear headlights was probably an idea stolen from mercedes. Front grill looks ugly, i don't care if they took it off Saturn, that thing is fat ugly. Wheels are directly mass produced off Honda Accord wheels but with an 'A' symbol on it.I only like the center console on this vehicle. This is not gonna help Honda's sales...
I agree denistl, if this trickles down to the TSX and TL Acura can kiss most of their sales goodbye. Why didn't they just modify the MDX grille, it would have been a better choice than this monstrosity? In other words, I was looking forward to buying a TSX (Type-S version, anyway), but if it comes with a front as hideous as this one you can keep it.
It's NASTY!!! I liked the grille on both the TL and the RL. This just looks horrible! I mean, the new Accord isnt attractive by any means, but they aren't repulsive either. How Honda could go from unattractive to nasty that fast is beyond me. Plus, as others have said it resembles Saturn too much. If Honda wants to sell these things, then get over the "bling" issue. I like flashy luxury cars, but when the flashiness overrides the car's styling, or fails to add to it then I hate it. Honda: remove the grille's centerpiece and it looks fine. It kinda looks like that one tooth that is sticking out of a child's mouth.
Actually that grille reminds me of the Transformers Logo...That looks AWFUL!
I have similar concerns that this doesn't spread to the TSX and TL. For me Acura mostly represented restaint. Precision style,with an edge to it. Giving the market something unique (the TSX for instance). And while most publications seemed to prefer the Infinity G35 to the TL,in real life it was necessary to add an X for it's all wheel drive with additional cost, complexity, and reduced gas mileage. Finally I have also seen that grill before. In the animated movie Cars,where all the cars spoke through their grills
Griffs, that looks nothing like a Saturn grill. That grill on the RL is the ugliest Honda creation I have ever seen. The styling on that thing will make its owner the laughing stock of country club, board room, etc. You paid how much for that thing? ......mu haa haa haa haa........ (picture numerous people pointing and lauging uncontrolably)
You know, I've seen this grill before... Ohh yes, know I remember on the new Saturns! Wow, Honda is sinking pretty low to copy American car company grills...(not to mention their new Accord losing out to 2 American cars in the COTY Awards...)
I threw up a little when I saw this. Thats just plain sad. How is it that Hyundai has come up with the Genesis that has a V*, more HP, is CHEAPER, and better looking then Acura?? Acura is just laughable now.PS-Even the Accord looks better, has similar HP, and is Cheaper than that ugly thing. I hope they don't screw up the TSX and TL with that grille!

Watermark Grille about good times, good friends, good food
Watermark Grille is well known in town for the story of Naples' four Malo brothers and their collection of Viper sports cars and restaurant architecture — tall windows and daylight and nighttime ambiance. The restaurant is in homage to water, with fountains and a massive collection of plants and tropical trees throughout.
A few appetizers are worth mentioning first. If it's done well, which it is at Watermark Grille, saganaki can't be beat for cheese lovers. Watermark's saganaki is scrumptious, salty, citrusy goodness.
Made with Kasseri cheese and floured, it's pan-seared in olive oil and then flambéed tableside with Ouzo and a splash of lemon. ($7.99) For diners who love the sweet with the savory, the Brie encrout appetizer is a pastry dough stuffed with brie cheese and folded with raspberry sauce ($7.99).
The Greek salad is a refreshing start to your meal and the generous portions can be shared. With the requisite feta cheese, olives, cucumber, tomato, onion, pepperoncini and Greek dressing, it's $11.99.
A few of the most popular entrees include the hearty chicken Oscar, prepared with sautéed chicken breast, mushrooms, Swiss cheese, blue crab meat, asparagus and Béarnaise sauce. It's served over angel hair pasta tossed in fresh garlic, butter and Parmesan cheese ($16.99). Prime rib of beef comes in two sizes — a 15-ounce hearty cut ($29.99) and 11-ounce petite cut ($21.99).
Youngsters and vegetarians may be horrified to learn liver and onions is one of the most popular dishes in Naples. This classic dish also is a Watermark Grille favorite, a huge portion that's floured, grilled and topped with sautéed onions. At $13.99, this dish is a steal for people who love it.
One of the reasons locals mob Watermark Grille during the summer is the lobster specials. Maine lobster is included on the regular menu and is served with drawn butter and lemon ($29.95). However, between June and September, several lobster specials star through the last day in September, when lobsters of varying weight take center stage at tables throughout the restaurant.
Watermark Grille
Where: 11280 U.S. 41 N., North Naples (turn right at the U.S. 41 entrance to Riverchase Plaza to access the Watermark Grille parking lot)
When: 4 to 11 p.m. daily
Prices: $4.99-$8.99 starters; $7.99-$36.99 entrees; $5.99 kids meals (12 and younger)
Information: 239-596-1400; www.WatermarkGrille.com
Chef Jim Malo makes the Watermark Grille's lobster sauce from scratch, so many of the seafood dishes arrive at table with the lobster sauce, including the seafood platter ($21.99) which is prepared with shrimp, scallops and three fresh fish cuts of the day. The fish vary each day.
Fresh haricot verts (mini green beans) and a special potato are among the side dishes which also include fries, baked potato and sweet potato. The special potatoes vary from scalloped to mashed to mashed sweet potatoes.
Specials can include chateaubriand, lobster ravioli, Key West-style crabcakes or chicken Franoise, many of which make their way onto the main menu. The seafood pasta and the oysters Rockefeller have become so popular that the Malos are adding both to the regular menu in the coming months.
Watermark inspires the question: Could there be anything better than lobster and fried cheese? Yes: Throwing a lively cocktail hour into the mix. Watermark Grille's full bar is a gathering place, a cocktail-hour kind of spot. Larger parties of five or more people are common here with Manhattans, gimlets and other classic cocktails the order of the evening.
It's soothing to see people ordering a round of drinks and then sharing appetizers, followed by wine with dinner entrees. One patron from a tableful explained they have a nice dinner out about every five or six weeks with friends at Watermark.
"Coming here is about good times, good friends, good food and breaking bread together," he explained.
Watermark Grille also is a family restaurant. From 6 to 9 p.m. Thursday through Sunday, the brothers employ a magician who travels from table to table performing sleight of hand.

The deal is, I have a 15.2 9y/o paint gelding who is built like a tank. Which is one quality I love on him(I'm partial to drafts) we got him end of September, with no prior knowledge on his feed/exsersize history. So starting from scratch we started him on rural kings pleasure feed, 1/2 scoop(1/2 of a 3qt scoop) 2x a day with 2 flakes hay 2x a day. Doing light trot work eh 3-4 times a week maybe more depending on work/school. He started losing weight so we switched to Purina's leading edge(equivalent to strategy), recommended by my friend who feeds it to her 4 y/o tb. So he was getting 1 scoop 2x a day plus we added 1/2scoop alfalfa pellets. Well the feed prices went up so to 12.99/50lbs. Rediculus, so now he's on the barn feed which I don't like one bit. It's oats with some corn. I was recently told by another boarder it's high in sugar as well. Awesome.. So Gunnar is acting quite pigheaded which worries me because the boyfriend is still learning and hops on bareback in a halter and just wants to walk around, maybe trot a few strides. I don't want him getting hurt/discouraged from an accident. So I'm looking for any suggestions. My friend and I are going to be buying extra hay to feed since the barn hay isn't that great and not much is offered. Any suggestions? He's on no suppliments, he'll have his teeth floated soon. But there aren't any areas that are cutting him. So that's not an issue. I was told to try brocks 14? I'm not sure. I'm going to check out a feed store Friday.. There aren't many in the area. I'm just trying to figure this out before I write his December board check so I don't pay for the board feed I don't like anyway.

Data Minning
What is data mining?
Data Mining is the process of extracting knowledge hidden from large volumes of raw data.The knowledge must be new, not obvious, and one must be able to use it.
Knowledge discovery differs from traditional information retrieval from databases.In traditional DBMS, database records are returned in response to a query; while in knowledge discovery, what is retrieved is not explicit in the database. Rather, it is implicit patterns. The Process of discovering such patterns is termed data mining.
Data mining finds these patterns and relationships using data analysis tools and techniques to build models. There are two main kinds of models in data mining. One is predictive models, which use data with known results to develop a model that can be used to explicitly predict values. Aother is descriptive models, which describe patterns in existing data. All the models are abstract representations of reality, and can be guides to understanding business and suggest actions.
Following questions are probably be answered if information hidden among megabytes of data in your database can be found and utilized. Modeling the investigated system, discovering relations that connect variables in a database are the subject of data mining.
- What goods should be promoted to this customer?
- What is the probability that a certain customer will respond to a planned promotion?
- Can one predict the most profitable securities to buy/sell during the next trading session?
- Will this customer default on a loan or pay back on schedule?
- What medical diagnose should be assigned to this patient?
- How large the peak loads of a telephone or energy network are going to be?
- Why the facility suddenly starts to produce defective goods?
More details please refer following sites:
Two main reasons to use data mining:
Facing to enormous volumes of data, human analysts with no special tools can no longer make sense. However, Data mining can automate the process of finding relationships and patterns in raw data and the results can be either utilized in an automated decision support system or assessed by a human analyst. This is why to use data mining, especially in science and business areas which need to analyze large amounts of data to discover trends which they could not otherwise find.
If we know how to reveal valuable knowledge hidden in raw data, data might be one of our most valuable assets. while data mining is the tool to extract diamonds of knowledge from your historical data and predict outcomes of future situations.
A brife history of data mining
The term "Data mining" was introduced in the 1990s, but data mining is the evolution of a field with a long history.
Data mining roots are traced back along three family lines: classical statistics, artificial intelligence, and machine learning.
Satistics are the foundation of most technologies on which data mining is built, e.g. regression analysis, standard distribution, standad deviation, standard variance, discriminant analysis, cluster analysis, and confidence intervals. All of these are used to study data and data relationships.
Artificial intelligence, or AI, which is built upon heuristics as opposed to statistics, attempts to apply human-thought-like processing to statistical problems. Certain AI concepts which were adopted by some high-end commercial products, such as query optimization modules for Relational Database Management Systems (RDBMS).
Machine learning is the union of statistics and AI. It could be considered an evolution of AI, because it blends AI heuristics with advanced statistical analysis. Machine learning attempts to let computer programs learn about the data they study, such that programs make different decisions based on the qualities of the studied data, using statistics for fundamental concepts, and adding more advanced AI heuristics and algorithms to achieve its goals.
Data mining, in many ways, is fundamentally the adaptation of machine learning techniques to business applications. Data mining is best described as the union of historical and recent developments in statistics, AI, and machine learning. These techniques are then used together to study data and find previously-hidden trends or patterns within.
What is the current state?
Techniques in Data Mining
Association Rule:
Association is to discover interesting associations between attributes contained in a database. This technique is also known as market basket analysis. Based on frequency counts of the number of items occur in the event (i.e. a combination of items), association rule tells if item X is a part of the event, then what is the percentage of item Y is also part of the event.
Clustering is often used to find appropriate groupings of elements for a set of data. Unlike decision trees we discuss above, clustering is a kind of undirected knowledge discovery or unsupervised learning; that is, there is no target field, and the relationship among the data is identified by bottom-up approach.
Decision Trees
Decision Trees performs classification by constructing a tree based on training instances with leaves having class labels. The tree is traversed for each test instance to find a leaf, and the class of the leaf is the predicted class. This is a directed knowledge discovery in the sense that there is a specific field whose value we want to predict.
Neural Network
Neural network is often represented as a layered set of interconnected processors. These processor nodes are frequently referred as neurodes so as to indicate a relationship with the neurons of the brain. Each node has a weighted connection to several other nodes in adjacent layers. Individual nodes take the input received from connected nodes and use the weights together to compute output values.
More details please refer following sites:
The immediate future
The complexity of data mining must be hidden from end-users before it will take the true center stage in an organization. Business use cases can be designed, with tight constrains, around data mining algorithms.
More details please refer following sites:
Implication for database administrators, developers, and general public
For database administrators:
Database administrators will have a chance to explore a new knowledge as their boss may add extra responsibility to do the data mining research. If it is inside a big corporation, database administrators will work with research analysts or statisticians on the research by assisting them to acquire data set. If it is only a small firm, database administers may take the extra responsibility by doing the research on their own.
For database developers:
Many of the leading database vendors have already introduce a data-mining module in their database system. Oracle 9i Data Mining, IBM intelligent miner, and SAS enterprise miner are all powerful tools to let companies to dig into corporate databases that discover new insights on business applications. Database developers have to keep up with and even conduct research on different new data mining techniques that enhance their client's productivity. After which, database developers have to design an interface to let businessmen who usually do not have statistics or computer science background can handle analysis on data mining easily. The program or interface design should be simple, intuitive, flexible, and easy to understand so that novice pick up easily.
For general public:
The good news is that data mining can lead to better customized services. You will not receive any spam as advertising will target potential customers with new precision. You don't have to spend hours on looking a book you are interested in because a book recommender system has already figure out your next favorite by studying your borrowing record. However, we lose our privacy while enjoying all the benefits from data mining. When our personal data easily collected by different private companies, we will finally be exploited by their new pricing strategies.

Austin Peay (2-9)
Lipscomb (5-6)
9/14/2011 | Nashville, TN | Attendance: 361
Wednesday, September 14, 2011
NASHVILLE, Tenn. – Coming back home after solid play in last weekend's "Golden Dome Invitational", the Lipscomb volleyball team returned to Allen Arena on Wednesday night and swept Austin Peay 3-0 (25-11, 26-24, 25-16) to improve to 5-6 on the season.
"After what we did this weekend with two big wins over Portland and Valpo, to come back against an in-state rival that we've played every year and be able to execute our game plan like we wanted from the get go," said Lipscomb head coach Brandon Rosenthal. "It was also important for us to play our style and really kind of impose what we wanted on them and I think you saw that with our transitions."
Freshman outside hitter Lauren Ford led the way with 14 kills making it three straight matches with double figures for the newcomer. Junior Kaycee Green also finished in double digits with 10 kills on the night. Sophomore libero Stephanie Rex was active on the court as well hauling in 13 digs as part of a solid defensive effort for the Lady Bisons. Lipscomb held Austin Peay (2-9) to a .110 hitting percentage in the contest.
"I thought Lauren Ford coming off a really tough match against Portland, probably one of the toughest matches she's ever had where she just couldn't figure it out and they kind of had her number," said Rosenthal. "I thought she came out really, really well (tonight)."
Lipscomb roared out of the gate in the first set taking the first five points before eventually cruising out to a 10-2 lead before the Lady Govs could settle in. Ford played a big role in the 25-11 win in the opening frame with six of her 14 kills.
The second set saw the only time that the Lady Bisons would trail Austin Peay all night as the Lady Govs took the first point but that would be their lone advantage of the evening. Despite the wide margin in the opening set, Austin Peay refused to quit and took the second set down to the wire with Lipscomb taking a 26-24 win.
The final set of the evening saw Lipscomb again get an early lead by taking five of the first six points and then keep their foot on the pedal for the 25-16 win.

Hezbollah mobilizes ahead of potential US Syria strike
Posted By kurtnimmoadmin On September 2, 2013 @ 10:14 am In Old Infowars Posts Style,Tile,World News | Comments Disabled
September 2, 2013
Lebanon's Shiite Hezbollah group, a close ally of the Syrian regime, is redeploying its forces ahead of possible US strikes on Damascus, according to witnesses in Lebanon.
The reports come as the daily Al-Akhbar, which is close to both Hezbollah and the Syrian regime, said on Monday that the group had "called on all its officers and members to man their positions."
Residents speaking to AFP in the southern Lebanese city of Tyre said there appeared to be a general mobilisation of the group's members, even if such a movement was not being publicly discussed.

Welcome to Harwood Persians, located 45 miles north of Atlanta Georgia.The name Harwood was established in 1970 and registered with The Cat Fanciers Association. It is not now , nor has ever been a business. I am a hobby breeder focusing on the breeding of Bicolor Persians mainly for exhibition. Harwood breeds ONLY pure Persians with no Himalayan, CPC, Exotic shorthair or any other short or longhair mixes. The lines are researched and only Persians are in my pedigrees. We do occasionally have a loving retired adult for adoption or a pet kitten for lap sitting.
The cats have their own area in a part of my home that has plenty of
light, fresh air and sunshine. The mothers have their own private enclosures
to feel safe and protected while rearing babies. The others have large walk
ins with plenty of toys and things to climb on, in addition to running loose in selected groups each day. With 4 boys and about 10 females, they all get along well and are familiar with each other. We never take in cats for breeding or any other reason, so Harwood is a closed cattery. There is also a screened patio for when the weather is good for them to lounge and have a change of scenery. Their diet consists of Iams mixed with fresh raw beef and green vegetables. They get plenty of attention, and kittens are always underfoot and well socialized.
ĀPet kittens are usually placed with a pedigree alone and not open
registration papers to insure they are going to a new home as a loved pet
only to be neutered or spayed. Show cats and kittens are not placed in the Southern region, but are available for any other region, including overseas.
Not all are pictured, so feel free to contact me and see what is available.
Pictures and pedigree on request Have fun and enjoy this collection of some of my babies either here or in other wonderful homes.

Archive for the 'tucker Sno-Cat' tag
Four-Links – Serge and the Sno-Cats, first Kenyan car, L.A. crackdown, Friedman at the drags
* In the 1960s, Belgium used a couple Tucker Sno-Cats – emblazoned with logos designed by Tin Tin artist Hergé – to explore Antarctica. The Sno-Cats were relegated to a quiet abandonment up until recently, when some thief cut out just the logos from the sides of the Sno-Cat bodies, causing an uproar in the urban exploration community. PetaPixel has more on the story.
* Torchinsky this week had a story on Jalopnik about the Nyayo Pioneer, the first car developed in Kenya, which, despite all sorts of promises, never reached production.
* As Michael Satterfield wrote this week on TheGentlemanRacer, an L.A. task force descended on a popular Wednesday night tuner car get-together, ostensibly looking for stolen cars and evidence of street racing, but effectively harassing everybody in attendance about their car's modifications. "It seems California law enforcement is cracking down on So Cal Car Culture like they did in the early 2000's," he wrote.
* The Henry Ford this week added more David Friedman photos to its online collections, this time focusing on Ford at the big-time drags in the 1960s.
* Finally, Scooter McRad this week gathered a bunch of remarkable photos of Porsche's 904, just because.
Four-Links – Mini's Monte Carlo anniversary, search for the Alexandria, Trans-Antarctic Expedition, V-8 Snow Birds
* As Kurt mentioned in his story on the Mini earlier this week, perhaps the car's biggest racing victory was at the 1964 Monte Carlo Rally, which, as Ronan at Ran When Parked pointed out, took place 50 years ago this past week.
* The Alexander Brothers never finished their 1964 sedan pickup project, dubbed the Alexandria, before selling it, but it remains on Mike Alexander's mind 50 years later, and the Jalopy Journal has put out the call for leads on its current whereabouts.
* No doubt you've seen this photo of a Tucker Sno-Cat all over the web by now (perhaps even here, a few years back), but what of the Trans-Antarctic Expedition it served? For a history on that, let's turn to Wes Kibble's recent story in Off-Road Action.
* While most old Ford snowmobile conversions we see used Model Ts and Model As, later Ford V-8s were converted as well, as we see from a story on the Super Snow Bird on The Old Motor.
* Finally, The Henry Ford this week took a look at the origins and early years of new car shows and some of the related ephemera that resulted from them.
Hemmings Find of the Day – 1999 Tucker Terra
Inspired by yesterday's Six Degrees of Automotive Separation Challenge, I went looking through the Hemmings.com classifieds to see if we had any Tuckers for sale. We did indeed have a listing for the 48 that RM's auctioning off in Monterey this weekend, but we also showed a listing for this 1999 Tucker Terra Medicat, the evolution of the Sno-Cat. While I'm not one to get too excited over equipment, a Tucker is kind of like a Unimog in that it transcends pure functionality to attain coolness. From the seller's description:
1999 Tucker Terra 1600 Medicat Sno-Ambulance. 1999. Hardly used, excellent condition, Allison transmission, air suspension, hydraulic outlets front and rear, air-locking differentials, Cummins BTA diesel, Full Medicat ambulance body easily detaches, < 3500 miles and < 700 hrs. Ideal snow emergency vehicle or convert to flatbed snocat. Emergency lights and sirens, back-up monitor, summer track-covers. Located in Ridgway, CO.
See more cars for sale on Hemmings.com.
Cats that Walk on Snow
The Tucker Sno-Cat is a fairly unique and easily identifiable vehicle, but one which we've not really read much about until recently, when we added the January 1957 issue of Mechanix Illustrated to our growing collection of MI issues. In that issue, we not only find a flight-of-fancy story on interchangeable bodies for cars (which Ryan at the Jalopy Journal highlighted last year), but also a four-pager on the history of the Tucker Sno-Cat, the invention of Emmitt Tucker. All good inventors are named Emmitt, right?
In the same issue, we also see a one-pager on a custom-built fiberglass car built by electrician Ken Mace. Anybody know where this car is today? Pretty much all we've seen on it so far is a random listing in an old race newsletter that refers to the car in a November 1955 race as a "Wildfire Cad" – it DNF'd.
UPDATE (18.November 2009): Our friend Geoff Hacker did some digging on Ken Mace's car and came up with the following:
Built by Kenneth Mace – Norwalk, California
Body – Wildfire with custom fender additions
Frame – Wildfire rectangular tube steel
Running gear – 1940 Ford, 3.54 comm'l gears and open truck drive line
Engine – 1954 Cadillac (stock)
Transmission – 1954 Cadillac Hydromatic [sic]
Upholstery – Cal Top, Long Beach
Paint by – Kenny Lucas, Downey
Final finish (polish) by – "Vic" Frazier, Downey
Speed, top – 125 MPH
Quarter mile drag – 92 MPH
This beautiful sports car was constructed by Mr. Mace in approximately two months. He purchased a Wildfire frame kit from Woodill Motor Co. (with special engine and transmission mounts) and transferred the running gear from a 1940 Ford to the Wildfire frame. A new Cad engine and Hydromatic [sic] were mated to the early Ford shaft and rear end. A Jeep hot climate radiator was installed and the chassis was complete. The Wildfire body, with custom front and rear fender additions, was bolted to the chassis; bumpers, instruments, etc. were installed and there was Mr. Mace's own Wildfire. Built by an amateur with no special tools. No cutting. No welding.
Notice no mention of an inspiration by Mechanix Illustrated in that Woodill-provided writeup.
UPDATE (30.November): Geoff has been led to believe that the Ken Mace Wildfire still exists, so he's started a search for it.
Four-Links – Winfield's shop truck found, how did that Sno-Cat get out, a place to stash your toys, Forbes discovers license plate collectors
* Over at the H.A.M.B., member mynameisnotpete just announced that Gene Winfield's 1935 Ford shop truck recently resurfaced and is headed into the resto shop. Probably just as cool, he promises to keep posting updates as the restoration progresses. Probably not the greatest hot rod archaeological find of the century, but a significant one nonetheless.
*Â We've all seen that photo of the Tucker Sno-Cat on the Trans-Antarctic Expedition, straddling a chasm in a situation that seems rather hopeless. And we've all wondered whether that Sno-Cat's still there, because it's hard to imagine any way out of the situation. But Jesse, the just a car guy guy, recently found some home video from the expedition that shows just how the expedition members extricated the Sno-Cat from the chasm.
* Who wouldn't want to hang out in an old warehouse, surrounded by cars and car buds? It's like an adult version of the no-girls-allowed treehouses we built as kids, and a group of guys in San Francisco are making it a reality. Garage Magazine has the scoop on the Pirates Cove.
* We've known for a while that license plate collecting is a strong and integral part of the collector car hobby, and we've known that certain plates can bring in big dough. Now it seems Forbes (with a nose for stories with huge dollar amounts) has sniffed out the license plate collecting hobby.
* Finally, our friends over at the Collectors Weekly have been adding more and more collector car-related articles, and one of their most recent interviews was with Russ Grunewald, president of the Model T Ford Club of America, with some good insights into that slice of the collector car world.

The Cancer Prevention Coalition has criticized the FDA for failing to properly regulate sunscreens that it believes contain toxic ingredients.
The Chicago-based group claims that organic (or chemical) sunscreens pose scientifically well-documented risks that are being ignored by the industry and the FDA.
"Sunscreens are based on six ingredients, a number of which are penetration enhancers, actively forcing their way through the skin," says Samuel Epstein, chairman of the group.
Some of the ingredients, including oxybenzone, are thought to be endocrine disruptors, interfering with the hormonal system. In addition, according to Epstein, chemical sunscreens provide no protection for the consumer against the longer wavelength UVA rays.
Instead, he says that they actually can increase the risk of skin cancer because they encourage consumers, especially young people, to remain in the sun for longer periods. Although they may not be burning, they are not protected against the damage caused by UVA rays, he adds.
Epstein says that, in order to be protected against UVA rays, consumers must turn to sunscreen containing inorganic or mineral ingredients such as titanium dioxide (TiO2) or zinc oxide (ZnO). However, even these inorganic ingredients are controversial for Epstein and the coalition because an increasing number of manufacturers are turning to TiO2 and ZnO particles in the nano range in order to improve product performance, which Epstein calls "the single most serious potential hazard in the field of personal care."
The Cancer Prevention Coalition is calling on the FDA to improve sunscreen regulation and argues that the current status quo is just one example of the overwhelming ignorance and indifference of the FDA and its president. Specifically, the coalition is asking for a Sunscreen Labeling Act modeled on California's Safe Cosmetics Act of 2007.
Earlier this year, the Personal Care Products Council reacted to a similar complaint from the Environmental Working Group by reassuring the safety of sunscreen ingredients such as oxybenzone.
"Oxybenzone is approved by FDA, the European Union and Canada as a safe and effective sunscreen ingredient," says the council's chief scientist John Bailey. "This unfortunate attack on sunscreen products is an unjustified attempt to discredit an extensive, long-standing body of scientific data."

Namely, they want me to manage a different team; one that is in the crapper and needs saving. I was told my performance managing my current team is not in question, but rather it's that performance that makes me the right candidate.
This sends a little bit of fear down my spine. Move me to a failing team? What if I don't turn them around? Did I underperform in some way?
oh the nerves.

The set will include 23 of the best episodes, a ton of extras like interviews and behind the scenes footage, and new interviews with costars and guest stars, but some fans aren't too happy about how the show is being handled.
The first season DVD set was released in 2002 and, according to DVD Dossier, was met with anger by fans of the show. They say the video transfer was really grainy and unprofessional, not to mention the fact that the extras were lacking. The site wants to know why they are releasing this "best of" set instead of continuing the season sets with a release of season 2.
Anyone have the first season DVD set? How is it? Are you looking forward to this set?
[thanks to Judith for the tip]

A climb, possibly 'Late night final' but I don't think so! Was to the left of Maud's garden and the right of the butress you climb over for 'Wombat'. Something like a chimney but not really, a bit slabby and right next to the
butress. A bit vegetated and slimy. This is only logged to remind me of what happened as I can't log a climb that isn't in the list. May have been not on a route at all, good climb none the less.mad.moo - 08/May/11 with Sarah Hawkins

As Iride commented, your really going to have to go slow. This is not just a new horse to you it's a New and Abused horse. That's a hole different kettle of fish.
Who knows how she was saddled up before or what she was asked to do.
Let her develop some trust in you, spending time just hanging out and doing some ground work will let her figure out your not going to hurt her.
We have a little SPCA pony who was badly abused by a couple of women. When we first brought her home she was terrified on me. She would follow hubby anywhere but wanted nothing to do with me. It took a good 6 months before she realized I wasn't going to beat the crap out her, now she's my little shadow. LOL

Hunger Games' Liam Hemsworth Is Single And Very Happy For Miley Cyrus
November 13, 2013 11:06 AM
The cast of 'Hunger Games' sat down with Extra and answered a few of their questions.
They got a little personal, but Liam Hemsworth didn't mind. He revealed his relationship status, past jobs he's had, and his thoughts on Miley Cyrus.
He mentioned, "I don't have a lady at the moment" and while Woody Harrelson joked about the perfect woman for Liam, he also said referring to Miley, "I'm extremely happy for all of her success."
He's incredibly cute and seems very genuine with his words.

Illinois farmers and other producers who want to use the USDA Organic label may qualify for financial help in getting certified. The Illinois Department of Agriculture is announcing more than $270,000 is available through a USDA cost share program. The program covers three-quarters of the certification cost, up to a $750 reimbursement.
"Using these practices allows you to use the Organic seal in the marketing or labeling activities, and there is a market out there, so it is an increasing market," says Delayne Reeves, marketing representative and grant manager for the state Agriculture Department.
Reeves says the nation's organics market is estimated at $35 billion and growing.

i love keshia she;s the best ;./
I like this new Album!! ^^
This album is absolute dookie! I cant believe this is the debut of music for the upcoming decade -a poor start...I mean it is extremely disappointing to see talentless musicians climbing the charts with little to no depth in their music. A musician who wouldn't excel in a karaoke bar and who has the corniest lyrics can break digital music download records?? There are a couple of videos of her on youtube that show her making the album - without the autotune and whatever else they used to disguise her voice is horrendous. If you ever heard of Uffie then you know she is attempting to imitate her with a dash of gaga.
i love this song it is awesome
Notice how your the only one who thinks that. And why are you reading this article if you hate her so much? Some one has no life..

Which Broadband Connection is Right for You?
Like many people, you may be thinking of upgrading your dial up Internet service to broadband. But should you go with DSL or Cable? The answer may be one of personal preference or it may be one of necessity. Here is a brief comparison of the two types of services. We hope it will help you with your decision.
DSL Internet Access
DSL stands for digital subscriber line, a technology that transforms your home or office phone line into a high speed digital link. The good news is that you can stay connected and make or receive phone calls at the same time. The bad news is security related. Since this is a permanent connection you might end up with a static IP Address - a unique number which identifies your computer on the Internet and can make it vulnerable to hackers. However, today many providers are able to give you a dynamic IP Address, and of course you can use Firewall Software to protect your computer.
Advantages of DSL Connections
- Always on and you can use your phone line for voice services at the same time
- Far higher speed than dial up connections (256 KB - 1.5 MB vs. 56 KB)
- DSL is more secure than Cable
- The companies that offer DSL will usually provide the modem as part of the installation.
- NO new wiring
necessary (will use your existing phone
Disadvantages of DSL Connections
- A DSL connection is faster when you are closer to your provider's central office
- The connection is faster for receiving data than it is for sending data over the Internet
- The service is not available everywhere.
- Price increases if you want the fastest speeds.
- You need a phone line from the local phone service, so you can't change your main phone number to VoIP unless you get a stand-alone, or Naked DSL servie and those are generally more expensive.
Cable Internet Access
Cable technology provides a broadband, always-on connection to the Internet over the same line as your cable TV service. The big issue with Cable Internet is that you share your cable line with other people in your neighborhood. Therefore security is a bigger problem with cable access. Unless you have a Firewall Software installed (highly recommended), your neighbors can access your computer. Also, for the same reason, the more people that are connected the less broadband for you, and the slower your connection. If you're the only person in your neighborhood connected via cable you'll get great speeds (up to 2 MB/sec), but if others are connected, than your connection speed will drop.
Advantages of Cable Connections
- Available on a wider scale than DSL
- Generally faster than DSL 4MB - 12MB potential
- Your cable company will probably supply you with the required modem.
- You don't need a phone line, so using VoIP as your primary phone service is more convenient.
Disadvantages of Cable Connections
- Less secure than DSL Service
- Connection shared with others therefore speeds vary accordingly
- May require additional wiring to get the cable connection to your computer location.
- Usually more expensive than DSL
Test your Internet Connection Speed
There are several sites on-line that will check your connection speed, but one we like is SpeedTest.net.

At its next meeting, the Warren County Fiscal Court was hoping to pass an ordinance banning any weapons from county property on Aug. 31. That's the day the Ku Klux Klan out of Louisville is planning to hold a rally outside the Warren County Justice Center.
But the Warren County attorney says the proposed weapons ban is against state law, which prohibits local governments from regulating firearms, so the Fiscal Court will not consider the ordinance.

Chlamydia is a bacteria. It was only a matter of time before this happened, so I am not at all surprised. Sad thing is, you would think the threat of death (HIV) would have been enough to make people keep their pants on, but the human race is not all that intelligent on average.
As to the comments wishing death on people; I hate reading these types of stupid comments here on ATS. It makes all of us look bad. But again, it is just proving my point that the smart ones are in the minority.

Shopping List
Combine all dry rub ingredients (chili powder, ground cumin, dried coriander, dry mustard, dried oregano, paprika, cayenne pepper, salt and black pepper). Remove steaks from refrigerator one hour before cooking. Pat dry with paper towels and liberally rub the spice mix onto both sides of the steak. Allow to rest until ready to grill. Preheat grill to 425 or grill pan over medium-high heat. Brush steaks with a light coating of olive oil. Grill over medium-high heat for 4 minutes per side, turning twice for medium rare, longer for more well done. Remove steaks to a plate. Allow to rest for 5 minutes before cutting to allow juices to settle. Serve with Kurtz® Steak Sauce on the side.
Make a double batch of the dry rub, and store it in an airtight spice jar so you're ready to go the next time you grill.
Thanks to manifest from St. Louis, MO for submitting this recipe.

Holden's challenger to the upcoming 2012 Ford Ranger has been revealed in pre-production concept form this week as the Chevrolet Colorado Concept.
Scheduled to make its world debut at the Bangkok International Auto Show on March 25, GM says the Chevrolet Colorado concept offers a close look at what we can expect from the next-generation pick-up when it hits the market.
"Although this is a show vehicle, the basic proportions and form convey the vision for the next-generation Colorado that we will bring to market," Brad Merkel, GM Global Vehicle Line Executive said.
"It reflects a stylised version of the new truck, one that takes into account rugged dependable truck capabilities for commercial use as well as sophisticated refinement for personal-use needs."
Technical details remain a tightly-held secret, but the 2012 Colorado concept shown here features an extended-cab body, underpinned by an AWD layout and large 20-inch wheels.
How much of the concept will make its way to production is unclear, and while the 20-inch wheels may appear on a top-shelf Wildtrak rival, the concept-styled mirrors and headlight internals will likely go through some changes.
The showcar theme continues inside, with the futuristic centre stack and on-screen menu illuminated in the same ice blue featured in the Holden Cruze.
GM describes a 2.8 litre turbodiesel engine for the Chevrolet Colorado, although Holden's 2012 Colorado range will likely also include the existing Alloytec V6, or the newer SIDI petrol options.
As for the look of the Chevrolet Colorado's Australian-market counterpart, we can expect to see the 'Chev' grille swapped out for a Holden-badged face.
As our rendering below shows, a grille similar to the Cruze Series II would do the job nicely.

5 years ago2 likesVery good looking and really muscular.
- I like it. I think it could lose the cowl and the hard tonneau cover. I hope the frame crossmembers are higher on this one than on the current one.
I also hope that the new Colorado is good enough to be competitive with the T6 Ranger. And that if it's good, I hope they also build it in the US. The fact that the US Ranger plant is closing is the reason we won't get the T6. The smallest Ford truck here for next model year weighs 2100kg empty.
