Auburn Hills, Mich., Feb 04, 2004 - Bigger, bolder and tougher, the all-new 2005 Dodge Dakota stands alone as the largest, most powerful and most capable mid-size pickup in the market. With best-in-class torque, horsepower and towing, the 2005 Dodge Dakota delivers full-size pickup styling, feel and power with the only V-8 in the class.
"Dakota defined the mid-size segment with more room, more comfort and more power than the competition," said Eric Ridenour, Executive Vice President, Product Development, Chrysler Group. "The all-new 2005 Dodge Dakota repeats that success and injects some Dodge Ram DNA into the design and feel of the new Dakota. Dodge buyers like the right size' of the current Dodge Dakota, which is more fuel efficient and maneuverable than a full-size pickup, but can still get the big jobs done. The new Dakota gives them exactly what they want, full-size pickup capability in mid-size package."
Dodge: Bold, Powerful and Capable
The all-new 2005 Dodge Dakota takes its place at head of the class, with an all-new stronger and more durable fully-boxed frame. New front and rear suspensions deliver improved ride refinement, yet still provide a best-in-class 7,000 lbs. plus of towing capability and a gross combined weight (GCW) of 11,500 lbs.
"Dodge created the mid-size segment with the original Dakota and the new Dodge Dakota is still the only mid-size truck that hits the mark," said Darryl Jackson, Vice President, Dodge Marketing. "The Dakota lets our owners work hard and play hard by providing the largest and most powerful mid-size pickup.
"The 2005 Dakota is the next step in the all-new Dodge truck line-up," added Jackson. "As with the Dodge Ram 1500 HEMI Dodge Ram SRT-10 and Dodge Ram Heavy Duty, the Dakota dominates its segment with power and capability. Longer and wider than the mid-size competition, the new Dodge Dakota offers best-in-class overall interior space and comfort."
The all-new 2005 Dodge Dakota is 3.7 inches longer than its predecessor, primarily ahead of the front axle, to provide added crush space for improved impact performance. The new design reflects a balance between added safety features and the maneuverability of a true mid-size pickup. The bumpers are also extended slightly farther fore and aft to increase their protective capabilities in low-speed impacts. The body has been widened 2.7 inches.
Class Dominating Power and the Only V-8s in its Class
Now with two V-8 offerings, Dodge Dakota dominates the mid-size segment in power and torque. With a powerful standard 3.7-liter Magnum V-6 rated at 210 horsepower and 235 lb.-ft. of torque, the new Dodge Dakota offers a six-percent improvement in fuel efficiency and improved power over the 3.9-liter Magnum V-6. The 4.7-liter V-8 Magnum is rated at 230 horsepower at 4,600 rpm and 290 lb.-ft. of torque at 3,600 rpm, while the new 4.7-liter High Output Magnum V-8 further eclipses the competition in both power and torque with 250-plus horsepower and 300 lb.-ft. plus of torque. Both V-8 engines are rated between three and four-percent more fuel efficient than the previous Dodge Dakota V-8 engines.
Full-Size Truck Capability and Comfort
New interiors improve comfort levels on both Dakota Club Cab and Dakota Quad Cab models, with more i nterior room than all other mid-size pickups. The Dodge Dakota Quad Cab offers the most overall interior space in its class with available six-passenger seating. The 2005 Dodge Dakota also becomes the first mid-size pickup to offer heated cloth seats.
The Dakota Club Cab becomes the standard cab offering of the all-new Dakota. With forward facing rear seats and new standard rear-hinged access doors, the Club Cab's individual rear seats provide seating for two adults in greater comfort than the previous three-passenger seat. For added versatility, folding rear seat cushions provide 30.0 cu. ft. of storage behind the front seats, an increase of 4.0 cu. ft.
At almost seven inches wider than the new Chevrolet Colorado, the new 2005 Dodge Dakota Quad Cab is roomier than all other mid-size pickups, providing adult-size rear seating for three. Both front seat tracks on Quad Cabs and the driver's seat track on Club Cab have 8.7 inches of travel to improve comfort. The Club Cab front passenger seat has an ample 7.5 inches of travel. With the rear seats of the Quad Cab folded, there is 37.1 cu. ft. of storage space behind the front seats, an increase of 7.2 cu. ft.
The Dodge Dakota's capability advantage continues with more room between the wheel wells compared with the competition, but Dakota maintains its bed wall height for easing loading. The Dodge Dakota Club Cab features a six-foot, six-inch bed and the Dakota Quad Cab features a five-foot, three-inch bed.
More Refined
From its chiseled and muscular exterior to its clean and purposeful interior design geometry, the all-new Dodge Dakota brings new levels of refinement to the mid-size pickup segment. All-new coil over shock front suspension and rack and pinion steering deliver improved ride and handling while cleaner aerodynamics and improved sound deadening techniques combine to deliver the lowest noise, vibration and harshness (NVH) levels in its class.
"The all-new hydroformed and fully-boxed frame delivers both chassis refinement and strength," said Frank Klegon, Vice President, Truck Product Team. "We fully realize that the Dakota is more than just a work truck. It will carry families and serve as a daily driver, as well as tow and haul. The processes we developed refining the new Dodge Ram and Durango, such as aerodynamics testing, hydroforming frame rails and new NVH eliminating techniques make the Dakota an even more accomplished pickup."
The new front and rear suspensions, a new stiffer frame, rack and pinion steering and standard 16-inch wheels make the all-new 2005 Dodge Dakota the best riding and handling mid-size truck on the market.
Saftey & Security
The all-new 2005 Dodge Dakota's hydroformed and fully-boxed frame was designed to help improve not only handling and Noise, Vibration and Harness (NVH) but also to provide improved crash protections as well. With the new, award-winning and patented octagonal front frame rail tips that debuted on the 2004 Dodge Durango, the Dakota absorbs frontal impacts more consistently and the rail tips can be removed to ease repair without frame replacement.
The 2005 Dodge Dakota features a new advanced air bag system that includes dual stage front air bags and an occupant-sensing system for the passenger-side front air bag. Other safety features available on the new Dodge Dakota include available side curtain air bags, which include coverage for both rows of outboard occupants on both Club and Quad Cabs. All rear seat positions in the Dakota feature three-point shoulder belts, including a new center position on the Quad Cab. The new Dakota Quad Cab also features larger coverage head restraints that are fixed to the top of the outboard rear seats.
The all-new 2005 Dodge Dakota will be built at the Warren Truck Assembly Plant in Warren, Michigan. The 2005 Dodge Dakota will be available in dealerships in fall of 2004.

In the old days of running (that is, three years ago), figuring out what running shoe to buy was simply a matter of determining whether you were a pronator, supinator or neutral runner. Today, however, with the explosion of barefoot running and crazy obstacle races, the running shoe world is more complex, with cushioned shoes, minimalist shoes and specialty mud-running shoes all offering new and different technologies suited for specialty uses.
Running shoes: In the July 13 Saturday section, an article about running shoes had a wrong photograph for one of the products reviewed. The photo used to illustrate the Merrell Barefoot Road Glove 2 shoe was actually of the Merrell Vapor Glove shoe. —
In that spirit, meet some of the most radical cushioning technology you've ever seen: one shoe designed to climb ropes and wooden walls and swim across mud lakes, and another so simple that it proudly claims to have no technology at all.
Blade runner
Adidas Springblade: The foam-free cushioned shoe has 16 hard, bendable polymer blades that flex like mini diving boards as you land on them, creating a spring effect.
Likes: If you're a forefoot lander, the Springblade definitely returns energy, propelling you forward with an upward bounce on every step. (Heel strikers get a nice landing-in-sand shock absorption but less forward propulsion, it seemed to us.) Either way, the shoe will be durable, as there is no foam to compress. Your knees might never wear out because it absorbs so much impact. So if you like the striking looks ("Wolverine's shoe," my son called it), you might be running in this one in 2053.
Dislikes: Although the bounciness is fun at first, after a while it's like you've stayed too long in one of those blow-up fun houses at your kid's birthday party. Also, the hard polymer blades are co-molded into a hard, not-so-comfortable polymer foot bed. Heavy at 13 ounces in size 9.5.
Price: $180 (available Aug. 1). http://www.adidas.com
Springs in your step
Spira Stinger XLT: The cushioned trainer has three 1-inch-diameter coiled "Wavesprings" embedded in the midsole (two in the forefoot, one in the heel); they supposedly add cushioning and an energy-return bounce.
Likes: Ahhhh. A fast, energizing glide that makes you forget you have shoes on at all. It may be the best application of the often-tried spring-in-a-shoe concept. Springy (but not too much, like the Adidas can be), the XLT is cushiony and comfy, its hidden springs apparently working well with the giant piles of foam and the flexible 1.75-inch-wide plastic bridge that connects the giant forefoot and rear foot pods. It seems weightless but is merely light at 9.2 ounces in size 9 (8.4 ounces in women's size 7. A lighter, race-oriented model, the 7.8-ounce Stinger 2, is $100.
Dislikes: None
Price: $134.95 (free shipping). http://www.spira.com
Modern moccasin
Merrell Barefoot Road Glove 2: This is a simple, 6.5-ounce "barefoot" running shoe with an ergonomically shaped toe box, laces, mesh upper and 4 millimeters of cushioning.
Likes: Good alternative for those who like ultra-minimal shoes but don't like individual Vibram FiveFingers-style toe pockets. It's quite comfortable, with a roomy forefoot that does not smush toes together. It has a thin, tactile, Vibram-brand sole that allows good ground feel and includes a wrap-over toe guard.
Dislikes: Too much lace for a minimalist shoe. A quick-cinch lace system would have saved weight, tying time and complexity.
Price: $100. http://www.merrell.com
Mud mania
Teva Tevasphere Speed: A shoe designed for obstacle and mud races includes mid-foot support pods for stability on dicey terrain and a trail-running sole.
Likes: The combination of a flexible forefoot with grippy soft rubber lugs and stiff midfoot-rearfoot with a nylon-shank embedded in it makes sense on slick, unpredictable terrain. It's cool looking and is made of quick-dry materials. We liked it as a lightweight hiking shoe. It's light at 9 ounces in size 9.
Dislikes: I'm baffled by the hard, ball-like spherical heel, which is supposed to help mimic barefoot running because you don't land on your heel while barefooting. Having done crazy obstacle runs, I'd have liked a stiff ridge at the toes to help you climb walls and quick-cinch laces that can't come undone through mud, water and bushes.
Price: $120. http://www.teva/tevashere.com

MONTPELIER (AP) — The growing numbers of pre-trial detainees in Vermont prisons and paying sheriffs to monitor mentally ill patients in hospital emergency rooms are among the many budget pressures facing Vermont state government.
That word came Wednesday as officials with the administration of Gov. Peter Shumlin briefed lawmakers on the budget challenges they're expected to face when they return in January.

Flagler's Train: The Florida Keys Over-Sea Railroad Nearly thirty years after the last spike was driven in the transcontinental railway at Promontory Summit, Utah in 1869, the vast Florida wilderness was America's last frontier. But Standard Oil millionaire Henry Morrison Flagler had a vision for the lush, subtropical territory, one that he believed would bring untold commerce, people and riches to the as yet untamed land. It involved a railroad network, built through his iron will, vast riches and sheer determination that though short-lived, had far-reaching effects that are still felt today, 100 years after the first train pulled into Key West.

I don't go to Yankee's games, beaches or college bars but if I did, I don't think I would wear either of the outfits I suggested.
Okay, now that we've got you dressed... Sorry to say, but the only help I can offer is from my experience with b-school interviews (for what it's worth!). Those questions you threw out? You're probably dead on with what they'll be asking. I'd recommend reading over your entire application again, specifically your PS and other essays; I was asked questions regarding actual sentences I had written. But overall, assuming b-school and law school interviews aren't too different, I'd memorize some answers to the typical "Why our school? How can you add diversity to our student body?" etc. etc. Just like you're expecting.And relax. Interviews are rarely make or break!
Well I guess for me, how I dress is very much an expression of my personality interests and a suit on something like this is just a bit basic and ordinary.

She married her eternal sweetheart, Ernest Burdette Milner, on Dec. 28, 1959, also in Provo. They were later sealed in the Provo LDS temple on July 28, 2008.
In 1970, the family moved to Moab, where she was an avid supporter to each of her children's activities including scouting activities and sporting events, where she was their biggest cheerleader. She was also involved in her church with the Relief Society as a visiting teacher.
Naoma is survived by Ernie, her husband of 53 years, and was the proud mother to four children, Mark, (Sheryl) of Provo, Tamie (TJ) and (Jason) Jeppson of South Jordan, Mike, (Rosemary) of Boise, Idaho, and Ernest Jr. of Moab. Also surviving are 12 grandchildren and three step-grandchildren, and seven great-grandchildren, all who were the light of her life. She is also survived by her brothers, Doug, (Janice) Sorensen of Sandy, John, (Jackie), Sorensen of American Fork, and Jerry (Julie) of Orem; and a sister, Merta Rae Andersen (Jack) Hansen.
She was preceded in death by her parents and her step-father, Andrew Larsen.
She found great joy in caring for many children throughout her life as a babysitter, day care provider, and a somewhat adopted grandma to many nieces and nephews.
There will be a viewing from 10 to 11 a.m. on Thursday March 7, at the Sundberg-Olpin Mortuary, 495 S. State Street in Orem, followed by a graveside service at the Provo City Cemetery.

Rated 4 out of 5 by NICEFIT from Cute! Love it, looks very classy! However, as a DD, I don't feel comfortable with all the spillage. Everything else looks great!

Rated 5 out of 5 by PrettyPearl from Perfect Fit- Beautiful outfit, runs true to size. Ordered this outfit for my birthday and I was a little worried about the plunging neckline but it actually holds you in without revealing too much. I'm a D cup. Great, heavy material. Plus the waistline makes you look super slim. I am so happy with my purchase! Lots of compliments and surprisingly the hem was not too long on the pants with heels. Get it while you can. You will not be disappointed!

Rated 1 out of 5 by SweetPetite from Order up a size! I am about 5'5 inches tall, wear about a size 2, and have a DD bust size. I ordered a size XXS becuase of the other reviews. It was waay too tight around the waist and back. I could hardly zip the top portion of the jumpsuit. Defintiely going back and trying for something else!

Rated 5 out of 5 by Mache from Looove it Great outfit, fit amazing i got lot of complements.
Date published: 2013-10-09
Rated 3 out of 5 by Geb19 from This is nice looking but fitting is wrong. I am a size six and order the small. It fits good at the bottom but not on top section. The top keeps falling off my shoulders. I am dissatisfied because the x- small was tight all over.

Rated 5 out of 5 by AngelicStar from Love this jumpsuit!!! I've been looking for a fashionable jumpsuit for a while for my short self (5 foot 1). I usually wear a S but got the XS after reading reviews, and I fit it ok. I have a large bust line but in an XS I'm not spilling out and don't have to wear a bra because the suit can hold me in. Which is great because the back is low cut. I was a little worried that I would have too much cleavage in this cut but it's fashionable and classy at the same time. Pant hems are too long but I'm used to it.
Date published: 2013-06-26
Rated 5 out of 5 by SimpleBeauty from JUST AMAZING! I was lucky enough to try this before I ordered it, my local bebe store had a S that fit me a bit too big. The V was too low and open and the length was extremely long, even with heels on. I'm 5'4" 140lbs 34.27.42 for ref. I still fell in love with it and decided to order the XS instead... well let me tell you that now it's my favorite item in my closet! I LOVE this jumpsuit. The fabric is stretchy and light so you can keep cool, and the fit is like a glove, I could even wear it without the belt if I wanted to... extremely flattering and classy on my curvy frame. It's still a bit long but I plan to wear high heels with it. The only thing I have a prob with is the low V back doesn't allow you to wear a bra with it, but it wasn't enough to stop me from getting this, I'll just get a low back bra from VS. Ladies, get it before it's gone you will not regret it, it's flattering on any figure because of the waist cinching belt. You can also go a size down if you want.
Date published: 2013-06-26
Rated 5 out of 5 by babyshe from beautiful!! enhances the figure beautifully!! Perfect cut! The material falls so well along with the belt gives it very glamours look

The Interview
Is "Name" your real name or model name?
Model name.
What were you like growing up?
Believe it or not, I was a tom boy. I was always outside getting into something.
Does your personality match your Zodiac sign? Describe.
100% to a 'T.' Were romantic, emotional, and the sign of love.
How long have you been modeling?
On and off for about 8 years.
What would you say are your strengths as a model?
Definitely my drive. You encounter so many roadblocks and people not always wanting you for a job or an event, etc., you just have to keep a positive outlook. On the physical side, I'd have to say my legs and the way I connect with the camera!
Do you have any birthmarks, scars or tattoos? Please state "what", "where", "how noticeable?"
I actually think my scars have all faded. I had a really bad scar on my ankel from shaving! I was in college, shaving quick and butchered like 5 layers of skin; it looked like a murder scene.
Describe yourself in 3 words or statements.
Loyal, strong and driven.
What is your best beauty secret?
Exfoliating and moisturizing everyday!
What do you look for in a guy? What would he have to do to get your attention and to keep you interested?
I like (an) athletic build, and tattoos. I like a guy who can dress as well. Once you catch my eye, in order to keep me, emotionally, you need to be respectful, honest and loyal. Always keep it new and interesting, as well.
What gets you in the mood?
That's a secret!
How do you feel about pick-up lines? What was the best line that was used on you? Did it work?
Pick-up lines are pathetic. I feel like they're for 12 year olds, and even then I don't think a 12 year old should ever take pick-up lines seriously! I've definitely had pick-up lines used on me, but I brush them off and hope the guy was just joking!
What's the weirdest thing that has ever happened to you on a date? How did the rest of the night go?
I've actually never had anything strage or out of the ordinary happen. I do my homework before hand to avoid the awkwardness.
On a scale of 1 to 10, how wild are you in the bedroom?
DEFINITELY a 10! I've gotten great feedback!
What do you wear to bed?
Sweats and a tee shirt.
What item of clothing or accessory makes you feel the sexiest?
Yogo pants or boy shorts.
Have you posed in the nude? If so, how did it make you feel?
Not fully, but I always feel empowered and sexy whenever I shoot.
Where can we see you? (Ex. shows, TV, magazines, etc)
I've been in tons of online magazines, blogs, some music videos and I just recently shot for "Sweets" Magazine.
What is your dream car? What modifications/upgrades would you make, and why?
My dream car...hmmm, definitely an Aston Martin. I don't think that car needs any modifications, the engine on that thing is insane!
Do you have many traffic violations? Any stories you'd like to share with us?
About 15! I clearly have a good lawyer because there's no way on this earth I should be driving otherwise! I like to drive fast.
With any 'spotlight' type of job, you are looked upon as a role model. What advice would you give out to aspiring models?
Say no. Don't ever go along with anything you are not 100% comfortable with, ever.
Words to live by?
What goes around comes around. What's meant to be, will be. Everything happens for a reason. Treat others the way you would want to be treated.
Any shout-outs or last words?
To all my fans and supporters, thank you so much for sticking by me and helping me get this far. Thanks to PASMAG as well for the feature! I'm excited to feel like a part of your family!

Craving a bit deeper, more meaningful interaction action with your touchscreen gadget, like maybe stretching or squeezing it? Microsoft thought so. Researchers have come up with a prototype of their force-sensing tech that'll let you apply different kinds of force to a device, like twisting or bending, to do stuff like flip through document pages or swing through applications.
The modded Samsung UMPC has four sensors that detect how you're trying to manipulate it, so it doesn't have to actually be flexible. The researchers think the tech will complement—not replace—touchscreens, making devices more active and engaging, not to mention smaller, since space-wasting buttons will be unnecessary.
I feel kinda bad for buttons right now, everyone wants to get rid of them. But they'll have their day again, when button nostalgia sweeps the land. [BBC, Thanks Tolu!]

The content of this page:
How does this medication work? What will it do for me?
Perindopril belongs to the class of medications called angiotensin converting enzyme (ACE) inhibitors. It is used to treat high blood pressure. It helps to control blood pressure by relaxing blood vessels. Perindopril may be used alone or in combination with other medications that reduce blood pressure, especially thiazide diuretics (water pills).
Perindopril is also used to treat mild-to-moderate congestive heart failure in combination with other medications such as diuretics and digoxin. It may also be used to decrease the risk of further cardiac (heart) events after a recent heart attack or for people with coronary artery disease.

When used to treat congestive heart failure, the starting dose of perindopril is 2 mg. It may then be increased to 4 mg once daily depending on the effect of the medication and side effects.
For best results, the tablets should be taken before a meal and on an empty stomach. Once-daily doses should be taken in the morning before breakfast. Seniors and people with kidney disease may require smaller doses.

Some people may experience side effects other than those listed. Check with your doctor if you notice any symptom that worries you while you are taking this medication.
Are there any other precautions or warnings for this medication?
Before you begin using a medication, be sure to inform your doctor of any medical conditions or allergies you may have, any medications you are taking, whether you are pregnant or breast-feeding, and any other significant facts about your health. These factors may affect how you should use this medication.
Angioedema: Although not common, angioedema (a serious allergic reaction that causes the area around the throat and tongue to swell) may occur with ACE inhibitors, including perindopril. If you experience swelling of the face, tongue, or glottis, stop taking perindopril at once and seek immediate medical attention. People who have had angioedema caused by other substances may be at increased risk of angioedema while taking an ACE inhibitor such as perindopril.
Blood counts: This medication can decrease the number of neutrophils (a type of white blood cell that helps fight infection), red blood cells (which carry oxygen), and platelets (which help your blood to clot). Your doctor will do blood tests to monitor this. If you notice any signs of infection (e.g., fever, chills, or sore throat) or unusual bleeding or bruising, contact your doctor immediately.
Cough: People taking perindopril may develop a dry, persistent cough that usually disappears only after stopping or lowering the perindopril dose. Be sure to tell your doctor of any cough which does not seem to be related to a usual cause.
Diabetes: Perindopril may affect blood sugar control. If you have diabetes, discuss with your doctor how this medication may affect your medical condition, how your medical condition may affect the dosing and effectiveness of this medication, and whether any special monitoring is needed. You may need to test your blood sugar more often when you first start taking this medication.
Taking perindopril in combination with aliskiren increases the risk of severe low blood pressure, fainting, stroke, and decreasing kidney function. People with diabetes must not take both of these medications.
Fluid and electrolyte balance: Increases in blood levels of potassium may occur as a result of taking perindopril. This rarely causes problems, but your doctor will probably want to monitor your potassium levels regularly with blood tests.
Kidney function: Changes in kidney function have been seen in certain people who take this medication. The use of diuretics (water pills) or aliskiren may further increase the risk of kidney problems for those already at risk for this problem. If you have kidney disease, discuss with your doctor how this medication may affect your medical condition, how your medical condition may affect the dosing and effectiveness of this medication, and whether any special monitoring is needed.
Liver function: Rarely, people taking this medication experience decreases in liver function, possibly leading to liver failure. Your doctor will do blood tests to monitor this. If you notice any signs of liver problems such as fatigue, feeling unwell, loss of appetite, nausea, yellowing of the skin or whites of the eyes, dark urine, pale stools, abdominal pain or swelling, and itchy skin, contact your doctor immediately.
If you have liver problems, discuss with your doctor how this medication may affect your medical condition, how your medical condition may affect the dosing and effectiveness of this medication, and whether any special monitoring is needed. Your doctor may want to test your liver function regularly with blood tests while you are taking this medication.
Low blood pressure: Occasionally, blood pressure drops too low after perindopril is taken. This usually happens after the first or second dose or when the dose is increased. It is more likely to occur for those who take aliskiren, water pills, have a salt-restricted diet, are on dialysis, are suffering from diarrhea or vomiting, or have been sweating excessively and not taking in enough fluids. If low blood pressure causes you to faint or feel lightheaded, contact your doctor.
Pregnancy: ACE inhibitors such as perindopril may cause severe harm or death to a developing baby if taken by the mother during pregnancy. This medication should not be used during pregnancy. If you become pregnant while taking this medication, contact your doctor immediately.
Breast-feeding: This medication passes into breast milk. If you are a breast-feeding mother and are taking perindopril, it may affect your baby. Talk to your doctor about whether you should continue breast-feeding.
Children: The safety and effectiveness of the use of perindopril by children have not been established. Its use by this age group is not recommended.
What other drugs could interact with this medication?
There may be an interaction between perindopril and any of the following:
If you are taking any of these medications, speak with your doctor or pharmacist. Depending on your specific circumstances, your doctor may want you to:
- stop taking one of the medications,
- change one of the medications to another,
- change how you are taking one or both of the medications, or
- leave everything as is.
An interaction between two medications does not always mean that you must stop taking one of them. Speak to your doctor about how any drug interactions are being managed or should be managed.
Medications other than those listed above may interact with this medication. Tell your doctor or prescriber about all prescription, over-the-counter (non-prescription), and herbal medications you are taking. Also tell them about any supplements you take. Since caffeine, alcohol, the nicotine from cigarettes, or street drugs can affect the action of many medications, you should let your prescriber know if you use them.

When Evo Morales was elected Bolivia's first indigenous president in 2005, José Ortiz, a national indigenous leader, was hopeful.
But today Mr. Ortiz stands in Plaza San Francisco in Bolivia's administrative capital of La Paz protesting against the man who was once his key ally. Marchers carry signs calling Mr. Morales a liar during a nationwide strike after police quashed a deadly protest against a road through rain forest that the government vowed to build, despite indigenous protests.
"At the beginning it was different; we worked together. The government even comes from humble beginnings. It identified itself as an indigenous government." Now, he says, "we've lost confidence."
Ortiz's disappointment is being felt in pockets across a continent once optimistic that the tide had finally turned in favor of indigenous rights.
Morales's election, followed by inaugurations across the region of presidents promising more social inclusion, had spurred hopes that new leaders would stand up for the interests of native peoples. But many groups are increasingly butting heads with the governments they elected and demanding greater participation in decisions that affect their ancestral lands, especially as it relates to massive energy and infrastructure projects these fast-growing nations see as key to their development.
Rifts in the Andean region
A case in point is Bolivia, where police confronted those protesting a proposed new road, heavily financed by Brazil, that was to cut through The National Park and Indigenous Territory Isiboro-Secure (TIPNIS). The indigenous living in the lowland jungle say their rights to be previously consulted, enshrined in the new 2009 Constitution, have been violated and fear the road will open the park to oil and gas exploration and an influx of coca growers, among other concerns.
The movement has come to a head, with two ministers resigning – one in solidarity, another under pressure – over allegations that the government ordered police to crush the movement. Morales halted the project. But he said he might put its future to a broad referendum, which the marchers oppose.
More than 60 percent of Bolivia's population identifies itself as ethnically indigenous, and while they are hardly monolithic – some support Morales's highway – this protest has cost Morales support among many of his former allies. In the scandal's wake, he called protesters his "indigenous brothers," but at an earlier point labeled them lackeys of the United States.
"When he was campaigning he said, 'If you all support me and vote for me I will be the president of the disadvantaged.' So we, the indigenous peoples, decided to support for him," says Cecilia Moyobire, president of Moxeno Trinitario group of the southern part of the TIPNIS. "We trusted in him and voted because with other governments we were always forgotten, discriminated against, crushed, and massacred."
The indigenous have also lost a key ally in Ecuador. Groups largely supported the rise of President Rafael Correa and the passage of his 2008 Constitution recognizing a "plurinational" state, but battles have erupted as the indigenous charge that Mr. Correa cares more about resource development than land rights. The president, for his part, has done little to seek compromise, instead putting indigenous leaders and their supporters under investigation for charges such as sabotage. To some analysts, the rifts in the Andean region show the dilemmas posed by fulfilling campaign promises while running modern economies.
"Correa and Morales came to power reclaiming rights against foreign investment, but they still need it," says Christopher Sabatini, editor in chief of the policy journal Americas Quarterly in New York.
They also can't please every faction under the umbrella of a national indigenous community, a community that does not share one platform but has many competing demands, claims, and grievances. And Mr. Sabatini say indigenous groups need new agendas that not only address age-old narratives of land rights but begin to tackle their lack of access to education, health, and other services.
Consultation may encourage claims
Many Latin American nations have signed the International Labor Organization Convention that asserts native rights to land and prior consultation, says Maxwell Cameron, an expert in Latin American democratization at the University of British Columbia. But in reality, countries differ on how those concepts are put into practice. In Guatemala, for example, despite hundreds of consultations, indigenous claims have been ignored, he says.
Some of the most conflictive protests by indigenous against development and resource extraction in particular have occurred in Peru. In August, the National Congress approved a law that requires companies to consult with communities before commencing projects on their territories.
But when indigenous concerns are taken into account, that could increase – not decrease – conflict. "A mechanism for consultation actually empowers people to make claims," Mr. Cameron says. "It doesn't mean that conflicts go away."
And at the root of the issue in Bolivia is vague terminology over what "consultation" means, how it is conducted, and whether indigenous communities have the last word on whether a project proceeds or not. These are some of the questions that will be grappled with in Bolivia and beyond as the indigenous navigate new powers.
"Historically the Constitution [in Bolivia] remains a highly important step for the rights of indigenous peoples," says Robert Albro, an expert on social and indigenous movements in Latin America at American University. "That is unequivocal," he says. "But it does not make it un-problematically good."

Grand Theft Auto IV Walkthrough
|Catch the Wave
On Tinderbox Avenue in Alderney, you can find a guy named Phil at a strip bar. Head on inside and you'll find Phil sitting at the bar with the bartender. When Niko arrives, however, Phil offers to go for a walk with him so the two can talk. Phil can barely get out what he really wants Niko for, however, before the bartender busts outside, telling Phil that the boss requires his presence. Seems there's little time to lose for whatever's up, and Phil and Niko hop into a car together.
Phil instructs Niko to head to an underpass underneath Panhandle Road, towards the northern end of Alderney. As the two men drive to their destination, they have a rather humorous conversation, since Phil wants to trust Niko, but clearly every one of his criminal instincts tell him not to. Regardless, the drive to the location of the truck underneath the trestle should be an uneventful one.
When you arrive at the truck's location, a new destination will appear on your HUD -- Charge Island. To get to Charge Island, your GPS will almost certainly bring you across the Hickey Bridge into the borough of Algonquin. From there, it's an easterly drive to the East Borough Bridge, which connects Algonquin to the tiny Charge Island in between Algonquin and the Broker/Dukes island. Just like the drive to the truck, the drive to the warehouse acting as the drop point is also an uneventful one. However, the uneventful nature of this mission ends as soon as you arrive.

So, the running clinic became our social outlet with a side of running. We were asked on the first night why we were there. A lot of people were there for their second 5k clinic, hoping to improve their endurance. Others were following up after having been in the Learn to Run clinic and wanted to increase their intervals (from 5 min running, 1 min running intervals up to 10 & 1's). Many of them had set a marathon or half-marathon race as their goal. When it was my turn, I admitted that I did not like to run, but I wanted to like to run, and that I had little to no interest in running a marathon.
That seems to be the goal for a lot people, the marathon. But, here's the thing: I can't think of many things I want to do for 4 to 5 hours (or more), and running is not even close to getting on that list. Running is boring, even with your best friend running and chatting by your side or your iPod pumping your favourite tunes or podcasts. The Running Room promotes a training strategy that includes regular intervals of walking periods. By the end of the clinic, both my friend and I felt that we didn't require the 1 min walk after 10 minutes, but we looked forward to it as a mark that we were that much closer to being done.
When the clinic was over, many people were asking if we would be signing up for the 10k clinic.
We're still going to run. We've signed up for another 5k in March to help in the motivation department and we have put together our own training schedule that builds on what we learned in the clinic. We'll still get together a couple of times a week to run together. But, we've decided that 5k is our distance and our only goal is to finish the 5k faster.
I'm not a running convert by any means. I don't dread it like I used to, but given the choice between going out for a run and reading a good book, I'll choose the book. There are no marathons or half-marathons in my future. I could maybe see doing a 10k if I can get to a point where I would be done in less than 45 minutes, because 45 minutes is pretty much my maximum tolerance level for pounding the pavement. It's certainly not a lofty goal, but it's enough.

#1 Boehner to Host Private-Sector Job Creators in House Gallery for Obama's speech09-08-2011, 12:30 PMWASHINGTON, DC (Sep 8) House Speaker John Boehner (R-OH) today announced he will host more than a dozen private-sector job creators in the House gallery during President Obamas address to a Joint Session of Congress tonight. Chief Deputy Whip Peter Roskam (R-IL) recruited these job creators as part of Republicans effort to reach out to American employers being hampered by excessive regulations from Washington, along with House GOP Conference Secretary John Carter (R-TX) and Rep. Marsha Blackburn (R-TN). Following is a brief look at each of the Speakers guests:
Spencer Weitman is the President of National Cement, which recently suspended construction of a new $350 million cement kiln in Ragland, AL due to regulatory obstacles. The construction project would have created more than 1,500 construction jobs and 20 new full-time operational positions, but was determined too costly and unpredictable because of proposed changes to EPA Clean Air Act regulations. The obstacles encountered by National Cement are on the list of Top 10 Job-Destroying Regulations identified in Majority Leader Eric Cantors (R-VA) August 29 memo outlining the legislative agenda for the remainder of the year.
Rock Katschnig is a corn and soybean farmer of 32 years from Prophetstown, IL. Hurt by a stream of harmful federal regulations, Katschnig appealed to President Obama at an Atkinson, IL town hall last month, pleading, Please don't challenge us with more rules and regulations from Washington D.C. that hinder us. The president replied, Don't always believe what you hear. Despite President Obamas statement, one proposed regulation on particulate matter (dust) would devastate Katschnigs industry and destroy many farming jobs. The obstacles encountered by Mr. Katschnig are on the list of Top 10 Job-Destroying Regulations identified in Majority Leader Eric Cantors (R-VA) August 29 memo outlining the legislative agenda for the remainder of the year.
Eric Treiber is the CEO of Chicago White Metal Casting, a third-generation family-owned die casting company employing 250 workers in suburban Chicago. Jobs at White Metal Casting are being threatened by increased costs associated with excessive federal regulations, in particular Clean Air Act and utility MACT regulations. White Metal Casting has also been forced to dedicate multiple employees to the task of complying with existing federal regulations.
Lisa Ingram is the COO of White Castle, a 90-year old family-run company that serves signature slider hamburgers. Excessive federal regulations current and proposed have put a strain on White Castle, contributing to a plant closure in New Jersey and slowing the companys ability to create new jobs. The new health care law, for example, has not only jeopardized White Castles ability to provide health benefits to its employees, but one provision alone could increase costs so dramatically that it would destroy hundreds of jobs.
Jim Plante is CEO of Pathway Genomics, a 100-person San Diego-based biotech startup that developed a genetic testing product for consumers. Last year, Pathway partnered with a major drugstore chain to help market their product a move that would have enabled Pathway to hire 100 additional workers. Despite being in compliance with all available FDA regulations, the FDA attacked Pathway in the media following the announcement of the partnership. The drugstore chain consequently backed out, and Pathway was unable to create those 100 new high-paying jobs.
Ignacio Urrabazo is president of Commerce Bank of Laredo, Texas, a small community bank with $450 million in assets. Urrabazo would like to lend more money to local businesses to help create more jobs in Laredo, a border community with an unemployment rate nearly 10 percent higher than the state of Texas as a whole. Unfortunately, current FDIC regulations have kept him from lending to qualified businesses. Urrabazo believes excessive federal regulations will soon put community banks out of business.
John Jack Earle is the Managing Partner of Earle Enterprises LP and is a multi-unit franchisee of McDonalds restaurants in Southeastern Pennsylvania and Southern New Jersey. Mr. Earle also serves as the Chairman of the International Franchise Association. Excessive regulations imposed by the health care law and Dodd-Frank, the ongoing threat of tax hikes, and regulatory overreach by agencies like NLRB, have hamstrung Earle and other franchisers with uncertainty and stifled their ability to create new jobs.
Glenn Rieger is a General Partner at NewSpring Capital, a private equity fund in suburban Philadelphia that provides capital for growth and expansion-stage businesses. A lead investor in more than 50 mid-Atlantic businesses of all sizes, NewSprings ability to support job creators is being hampered by excessive regulations from Sarbanes-Oxley, which is costing them millions of dollars annually.
Safi Bahcall is the CEO of Synta, a biopharmaceutical company focused on creating new drugs for treating cancer. Hampered by an increasingly uncompetitive American business environment, Bahcall is advocating for the research and development tax credit to be made permanent. More favorable tax incentives in France and Canada have encouraged Synta to out-source work to Canada and the company is currently weighing the potential of moving American jobs to France.
Kaleil Isaza Tuzman is the CEO of KIT Digital, a 1,200-employee publicly traded video technology company. KIT faces considerable costs as a result of Sarbanes-Oxley compliance regulations. A first generation American with Colombian heritage and fluent in Spanish, Isaza Tuzman was a U.S. special trade representative in Colombia and Mexico under the Clinton and Bush administrations, and is a strong proponent of passing the U.S. -Colombian Free Trade Agreement that the president has yet to submit to Congress.
Chris George is the CEO of CMG Finance, a mortgage company in the San Francisco Bay area employing 370 people. Hurt by increased health care costs and higher taxes from the new health care law, CMG Finance says the uncertain business environment created by the Obama Administration is preventing them from hiring an additional 15 to 20 workers.
Henry Juszkiewicz is CEO of the Gibson Guitar Company. Armed federal agents have twice raided Gibson Guitars facilities. Why? Unelected Washington bureaucrats wont say. No charges have been filed and federal regulators have not explained to the company what may have been done wrong or how to rectify the situation.
Gordon Logan is CEO of Sport Clips, a hair salon chain with over 800 stores. If not for the environment of uncertainty created by Washington, Logan estimates he would have opened 50-100 new stores over the past three years. Instead of hiring new workers, Sports Clips franchise owners are struggling with the new health care laws burdensome costs and mandates, and considering canceling existing health coverage for current employees. Logan also struggles with access to capital, complicated by government-created uncertainty.

Designing a More Efficient Disk-Stack Heat Sink with Simulation
Bridget Cunningham November 4, 2015
Heat has a powerful effect on the operation and lifespan of electronic devices. Introducing components like heat sinks within these electronic systems helps maintain cooler temperatures and promotes healthy performance. As we demonstrate with our disk-stack heat sink example, simulation is a powerful tool for analyzing the efficiency of heat sink designs.Weiterlesen

Silicon chips have been the foundation of power electronics over the years. However, as more applications are using increasingly higher amounts of electrical power, silicon has begun to reach its limits. Wide band gap semiconductors offer an opportunity to surpass these confines, operating at high frequencies, voltages, and temperatures. Looking to optimize their development of wide band gap solutions, engineers at Wolfspeed utilized the power of the Application Builder within COMSOL Multiphysics.Weiterlesen

Wireless power transfer involves the transfer of power between a transmitting and a receiving unit and is used to wirelessly charge electronics like mobile phones and electric cars. While wireless power transfer offers many benefits, there are some challenges that this technology encounters. This is where simulation comes in handy. For instance, some WPT technologies must be oriented in a certain way to ensure proper performance. Today, we'll analyze the impact of orientation on the functionality of two WPT antennas.Weiterlesen

The shortest route between two points isn't necessarily a straight line. If by shortest route, we mean the route that takes the least amount of time to travel from point A to point B, and the two points are at different elevations, then due to gravity, the shortest route is the brachistochrone curve. In this blog post, we demonstrate how to use built-in mathematical expressions and the Optimization Module in COMSOL Multiphysics to solve for the brachistochrone curve.Weiterlesen

Hickey: Injury means Habs must juggle
Montreal Canadiens defenceman Alexei Emelin is helped by a trainer after being checked by Boston Bruins left wing Milan Lucic, not shown, during first period National Hockey League action Saturday, April 6, 2013 in Montreal.
Photograph by: Ryan Remiorz, THE CANADIAN PRESS
MONTREAL — Michel Therrien's belief in the team concept will once again be put to a test as the Canadiens deal with the loss of defenceman Alexei Emelin with a season-ending knee injury.
"This is obviously a big loss for us, but we lost (Raphael) Diaz and (Rene) Bourque and (Brendan) Gallagher was out for 10 days," said Therrien. "They were important parts of our team, but we found ways to fill those gaps because the players really bought into our system of play and the team concept. All season long, we've managed to deal with losing key elements of our team while still being able to come through and win games."
The Canadiens confirmed Monday that Emelin suffered torn ligaments in his left knee in a no-fault collision with Boston's Milan Lucic Saturday night.
The injury had Therrien shuffling the deck in preparation for Tuesday night's visit from a streaking Alex Ovechkin and the Washington Capitals (7:30 p.m., TSN-Habs, RDS, TSN-690 Radio).
Davis Drewiske, who was acquired from the Los Angeles Kings last week, will take Emelin's place alongside Andrei Markov. Josh Gorges and P.K. Subban will continue to play together and may see more ice time. And Francis Bouillon will return to his mentor role as he is joined by rookie Nathan Beaulieu, who was recalled from Hamilton on Sunday. Therrien said Beaulieu received the nod over Jarred Tinordi and Greg Pateryn because he can fill in on the second power-play unit.
Drewiske, who spent most of last month as a healthy scratch with the Kings, was handed a larger role after Emelin left in the first period of Saturday's game against the Bruins. He played 23:08, delivered a hit and blocked three shots.
"I hope I can step in and pick up some of the slack," Drewiske said after practice Monday. "(Markov's) a great player and a great guy to learn from."
Drewiske said he will play to his strengths.
"There are a few things I want to do, play physical, be strong in the corners and move the puck quickly. There are some things that are a little different, but I like the system and the way guys work hard to support each other. They've had a lot of success and I hope to contribute to that."
Gorges put the loss in perspective when he said: "Anytime you lose a player for the season it's bad news, and this was a guy that was playing so well for us this year, too. It sucks to see him have to go through that – I know what that's like – but we're going to have to find a way. The style he plays and what he brings to this team is hard to replace. It's up to us to be resilient, find ways and find answers. You can't stress too much about what isn't there — you have to find a way to move on, as hard as that may be."
Emelin led the Canadiens with 110 hits and that's one area where he will be missed.
"Emelin brought something that a lot of other guys don't have, especially with the ferocity he plays with," said Gorges. "You can't ask guys to try to bring what he brought. We need to go out there and continue to do our jobs to the best of our ability, whether that means having to play more minutes or eat up more time on the PK. We still need to get the job done."
There will be some juggling up front, but the extent of those changes probably won't be known until game time.
Bourque appears ready to go after missing 21 games with a concussion, but Max Pacioretty became a question mark when he left Monday's practice early. A team spokesman said he was "day-to-day with a lower-body injury."
The plan is to ease Bourque into the lineup and he's pencilled in with Jeff Halpern and Travis Moen on the fourth line.
"Right now, I don't have a real reason to take anyone out of the top three lines," said Therrien. "Everyone's been doing excellent work (and Bourque) is going to have to be patient and work on getting back into game shape."
"It's been frustrating," said Bourque. "I've had concussions before but they've never taken this long. The toughest part was not being part of the team. I didn't even come to games at the Bell Centre."
Bourque said he expected to play March 23 against Buffalo but suffered a setback. He subsequently went to Atlanta where he was treated by Dr. Ted Carrick, a concussion specialist whose patients have included Sidney Crosby and Claude Giroux.

RVIA: Shipments Projected to Rise 6% in '14
December 3, 2013 by Justin Leighty - () Comments Off on RVIA: Shipments Projected to Rise 6% in '14
The strong performance of the RV market will continue in 2014, RVIA President Richard Coon told attendees at "Outlook 2014: Everywhere," the launch event of the Recreation Vehicle Industry Association's (RVIA) 51st Annual National RV Trade Show in Louisville, Ky. RV shipments in 2014 are expected to reach 335,500 units representing a 6.1% increase from the projected total for 2013.
Speaking to more than 1,000 RV manufacturers, dealers and industry representatives this morning (Dec. 3), Coon provided an optimistic look at the industry's future, based on a new projection from Richard Curtin, director of consumer surveys at the University of Michigan, in RVIA's quarterly forecasting newsletter RV Roadsigns.
The rise in shipments to 316,300 units by year-end 2013 would be a 10.7% gain over the 2012 total of 285,749 and include double digit gains in conventional travel trailers and Class A motorhomes. The industry is poised to surpass 300,000 shipments for the first time since the recession. The expected increase in 2014 would mean five consecutive years of RV market growth.
"RV shipments are growing," Coon said. "Consumer confidence is growing, credit is available, and RVs are visible, popular and even cool. This is a good time to be in the RV business."
Shipments are expected to rise in each product category, according to the new forecast, and motorhome growth is anticipated to be particularly strong. In 2013 and 2014, motorhomes are predicted to reach 12% of all shipments – up from 10% in 2012.
The growing strength in RV shipments is due to rising consumer confidence and improved economic conditions; however, lingering uncertainty about government policies and programs could affect the economic outlook, Coon cautioned.
"Our forecasts are affected by the economy," Coon said. "The economy is improving, but that progress could be undone if our political leaders fail to behave responsibly."
During his presentation, Coon walked the audience through RVIA's 2014 projection for each of the major RV product types, which included: travel trailers, 206,100 units; fifth-wheels, 73,000 units; folding camping trailers, 11,000 units; truck campers, 3,500 units; combined towable, 293,600 units; Class A motorhomes, 21,000 units; Class B motorhomes, 2,600 units; Class C motorhomes, 18,300; all motorized, 41,900 units; all RVs, 335,500.
"This has been a good year for sales and for promoting RVs to our core audiences," Coon said. "There is strong demand for RVs, and I am excited about our industry's future."

He is having his first prom this Friday. I kinda wish I was home to get to see him in his tux, but Mom promised me that she took pictures. It's not the same, but that makes it better. I think I'll sleep through half this weekend, I need the rest.
To make up for the lack of a Saturday Omake comic, I went ahead and put the next two omake pages up in the Thursday and Friday slots. I hope everyone finds that acceptable.

DETROIT — General Motors Co. on Sunday unleashed the 2014 Chevrolet Corvette Stingray, the seventh generation of the classic American sports car and the first new version since 2005.
The Stingray boasts an estimated 450 horsepower and 450 pound-feet of torque, making it the most powerful standard Corvette in history, GM said. The highly anticipated unveiling came on the eve of the North American International Auto Show in Detroit during a special preview at the city's Russell Industrial Center.
"For 60 years, the Corvette has represented the state of the art in performance cars," said Mark Reuss, GM North American president, as he stood on stage next to a fire-alarm red Stingray, its tarp just pulled off. "Since 1953, through the good times and the bad times for this company, there was always Corvette, demonstrating what it means to win -- to be the best."
The Stingray, a storied name first used in 1963, represents an important launch for General Motors as it tries to rebound from bankruptcy and shore up declining and historically low U.S. market share. The company will also use the Detroit auto show to formally debut its new Silverado and GMC trucks and its Cadillac ELR -- a plug-in hybrid based on the Chevy Volt that's aimed at the California market.
