This morning I happened upon a computer file of notes I kept while writing The Shadow Queen. I was particularly interested in a section on formulas for figuring out a novel's "elevator pitch"—the summation of a story in a sentence or two.
This is invariably difficult, at least for me. My mind does not lend itself to reductions. I'm more of the expanding type. (Not an asset.) These formulas give one hope that a difficult task will be made easy.
Don't be fooled, however!
These 4 formulas, which I've gathered from hither and yon — without always noting the source, so my apologies for not crediting the creators — are helpful in getting at the core of that unwieldy beast: a novel.
The 1-sentence formula
When _____ [OPENING CONFLICT]
happens to _____ [CHARACTER],
he/she has to _____ [OVERCOME CONFLICT]
in order to _____ [COMPLETE QUEST].
As applied to the YA novel I'm writing now, I came up with:
Haunted by dreams of her dead father, a 15-year-old girl goes on a quest to find out if she was the cause of his death.
This is a tidy summary, but as with most one-sentence summaries, this doesn't actually fit what actually happens in the novel.
The 3-sentence formula
_____ is about _____, who wants to _____.
The only problem is that _____.
As a result, he/she _____.
Yet, ultimately, he/she succeeds because _____.
So, once again, applying this to Moonsick …
Moonsick is about a girl who hates her awful stepfather Napoleon, and longs for her wonderful father, whom she idolizes. The only problem is that her father was beheaded, and it may have been her fault. In her quest to find out why he died, she discovers some unpleasant truths. Seeking her father in the realm of the afterlife, she learns that his death had nothing to do with her. Yet, ultimately, she succeeds because she comes to finally appreciate the real-life love of her stepfather, Napoleon.
The 3-part book formula
A book summary should give 3 things:
1. The genre (i.e. "mystery novel");
2. Parameters: what happens and what the reader getting into ("Seattle", "a detective" "a dead boyfriend");
3. Something left to the imagination (a dead body, a framed main character).
Moonsick is historical fiction for Young Adults. It's about Josephine Bonaparte's daughter Hortense, who hates her stepfather Napoleon and idolizes her dead father … until she finds out some unpleasant truths.
Better, I think …
The 5-part story formula
1. Character
2. Situation (What trouble that forces the character to act?)
3. Objective (The character's goal.)
4. Opponent
5. Disaster (The awful thing that could happen.)
Make each of these elements specific.
Put them together to form two sentences.
Sentence 1: A statement that establishes character, situation, and objective.
Sentence 2: A statement—or question—that pinpoints the opponent and potential disaster.
Haunted by nightmares of her dead father, 15-year-old Hortense goes on a quest to find out if the father she idolizes is trying to tell her something. Was it her fault that he was executed? What she finds out is not at all what she expected, and more of this world than the next.
I think this is a better summary — but I don't think I've nailed down the 5 elements, exactly.
This is so hard!
Do any of you have formulas you use successfully? I'd love to know.

Alex Song should re-join the Arsenal squad by Thursday but he still might not make the crucial game with Manchester United on Sunday.
The midfielder saw his Cameroon side surprisingly knocked out of the African Cup of Nations by Egypt on Monday night. He flies back to London in the next couple of days but tournament fatigue could see him miss out this weekend.
"The earliest he could come back is tomorrow," said Wenger. "They have to fly back from Angola to Cameroon and then back to London.
"I believe the earliest they will fly back is today, but we expect him tomorrow or Thursday.
"[As for Sunday] we will see how he comes back. But I must say he looked tired in the game yesterday."

Art Made From The Bacteria On Mobile Phones [Pics]
Students imprinted their phones onto petri dishes and these living images are the result.
This somewhat troubling gallery shows the bacteria that could be on your mobile phone. You often touch it and press it against your face, but after seeing some of these images, you might think again.
Wired reports that undergraduate students in the Practical and Biomedical Bacteriology class run by Simon Park at the University of Surrey imprinted their phones onto petri dishes filled with a bacteriological growth medium. After three days, they saw what bacteria their phones were carrying. According to Park, most of the bacteria were harmless ones normally found on the skin. He notes:
Bacteria can utilize many different things as vectors in order to promote their transmission. Insects, water, food, coughs and sneezes, sexual contact, and rain are just a few examples. The mobile phone appears to be no exception this rule… It seems that the mobile phone doesn't just remember telephone numbers, but also harbours a history of our personal and physical contacts such as other people, soil, etc.

Site: Ann Arbor, Mich. (U-M Soccer Stadium)

Records: U-M (7-2-0, 1-0-0 Big Ten), Indiana (5-3-1, 0-1-0 Big Ten)
Attendance: 713
Next U-M Event: Friday, Sept. 21 -- at Minnesota (Minneapolis, Minn.), 7 p.m. CDT
ANN ARBOR, Mich. -- Junior Nkem Ezurike (Lower Sackville, Nova Scotia/Sackville) scored two first-half goals and Shelina Zadorsky (London, Ontario/St. Thomas Aquinas) added a third in the second half, as the University of Michigan women's soccer team won its Big Ten Conference opener, beating Indiana, 3-0, on Saturday night (Sept. 15) at the U-M Soccer Stadium.
The Wolverines (7-2-0) faced just three shots all night, none of which were on goal, and all came in the first 45 minutes of play. Indiana's three shots in Saturday's match are the lowest number of shots Michigan has allowed all season, as the Wolverines have held opponents to single-digit shot totals in four matches this season.
Ezurike opened the scoring in the 18th minute, getting in behind the IU defense after receiving a long ball from sophomore Chloe Sosenko (South Lyon, Mich./Brighton). Ezurike timed her run perfectly, resulting in a shot into the lower left corner of the net past IU keeper Shannon Flower to give Michigan a 1-0 lead. In the 35th minute, Ezurike scored again, this time off the feed from junior Kayla Mannino (Bloomfield Hills, Mich./Avondale). Ezurike corralled the ball just outside the 18-yard box but was under pressure from a pair of IU defenders. She shielded the ball from the defense while turning and split the pair of centerbacks for another one-on-one opportunity with the keeper, putting the ball into the lower right corner to make the score 2-0.
Zadorsky added an insurance goal in the 60th minute. Freshman Corinne Harris (Chicago, Ill./Walter Payton College Prep) sent a corner kick in from the far side to the six-yard box and found Zadorsky amidst the traffic. Zadorsky got just enough of the cross to redirect the cross into the side netting for the team's third and final goal.
Fifth-year senior Haley Kopmeyer (Troy, Mich./Lahser) did not make a single save in Saturday's match en route to her fourth individual shutout of the season.
The Wolverines hit the road for its first Big Ten road trip next weekend, beginning with a match on Friday (Sept. 21) at Minnesota. The match will begin at 7 p.m. CDT.

This thread will be for links to sites that include listings of 1/4 mile times. The only caveate will be that the site must include subaru's. Please post your links and I'll check them out, and if they "qualify" (pun intended), I'll merge them into a single post and provide props.
I'll start it off:
ScoobyMile -- The Subaru 1/4 Mile Registry
These are ONLY Subaru times. Current fastest is 9.60 @ 145 (Easystreet). If the poster puts it in, includes: 60ft, 1/8th time/speed, Powers Source, Model, Owner, Date, and Track. If you mouse over the owner name, track name, or time, there are sometimes links tot the timeslip or track website. Site is searchable and sortable by category. (I used to be near the top of the 1st page here...now I'm somewhere on the 2nd page and these are BIG pages)
0-60 and 1/4 mile times for Factory Stock Vehicles
Thanks to Gabewillwin for the link. Includes year and model, 0-60 mph and 1/4 mile time (no speed). Combo of all the upper end magazine times (which most of us can beat without breathing hard).
North America's Fastest Production Cars
This is a sight that appears to be a very comprehensive accumulation from various mags testing. Large list of cars by make/model/times. Thanks to ntg06 for the link.
What is interesting about this list is that if it is correct, the 2006 Subaru STi is the fastest production 4 cylinder in US History. Kewl!! Of course, we already knew this.

Report: NSA Hacking Into iPhones
The National Security Agency is facing new spying allegations, this time centered on a device millions of people own--the iPhone. The German magazine "Der Spiegel" has published what it says are leaked documents showing software the NSA uses to remotely tap into people's iPhones. The software can reportedly patch into files stored on the device, along with the phone's camera, voicemail, microphone, contact list and location. Dr. Jeffrey Addicott, professor of Terrorism Law at St. Mary's University in San Antonio, is not surprised by the allegations. "The NSA has fantastic ability to link into a variety of communications systems, including the iPhone," he tells KTRH. "The real question is when can they do it, and what's the legal oversight."
Ever since the NSA's various spying techniques went public earlier this year thanks to information leaked by former government contractor Edward Snowden, the agency has been on the defensive about the necessity of those tools to find and capture terrorists, and to prevent terrorism attacks. But critics don't think the government has done enough to justify all of its tactics. Addicott is among those critics, and wants a better explanation from the Obama Administration. "And if the administration won't provide those answers, then Congress needs to hold hearings on these issues," he says.
For its part, Apple is denying any role in helping the NSA tap into iPhones. The company says it has never worked with the agency to create a "backdoor" into any of its products. Addicott sees this as just another example of the brave new world we're living in. "There's programs that allow people to track their friends with GPS technology, plus Google Earth," he says. "The issue of privacy as our parents knew it is gone." Addicott notes that even the idea of the government or private companies monitoring us through our phones or computers is no longer shocking to many people. "It's just what are the protections, when can they do it....that's what we're concerned with," he says. "It's who is authorizing it, under what circumstances and what conditions."

GAINESVILLE- 2012 was a down year for the Florida Gator football team in the draft-only two players were taken total and not a single one in the first three rounds.
2013 should see a return to the top though, as Sharrif Floyd and Matt Elam have both been in the conversation as potential first-round picks.
TV20 Sports Director Chris Price spoke with NFL.com writer Bucky Brooks to break down where several of the former Gators might end up.

More in the line of catablog hacks --
Here's a URL to search for new knitting books at the AADL. If you inspect it carefully you'll see that it'd be easy to change for any subject you want. Note that a lot of the just-arrived books are already on reserve from a few people, so the best approach to this is to find the ones you want to see, put them on reserve, and then keep that pattern up until you start to always have books come in a la Netflix.
I haven't found an RSS feed for that equivalent search yet, though I know it's bound to be on the way; when it comes, I'll update this page and feed in the list of items, and set up a Feedburner link for it.

Racing Bike Features Pedals For Hands And Feet
new model offers a better way to get a full body workout.
The idea of a bike powered by not just your legs, but also your arms is one that has been gaining popularity this year – now there is another company called Varibike making a contribution to the space.
The company's design features both a traditional leg-powered drivetrain, and a handlebar stem-mounted set of cranks that the rider can turn with their arms. This force is then transmitted from those cranks down to the main drivetrain via a rubber-sheathed chain drive, allowing the rider to use just leg power, arm power, or a combination of both.
A study conducted by the University of New Mexico indicated that a rider's maximum power output could be increased by over 30 percent when using both their arms and legs, not to mention to give a more well-rounded exercise experience.
For those who need time to adjust to the idea, there is a set of flat handlebars that allow for an upright position – the gear shifter, and brake levers are also located on the handlebars.
The base FR2 model of the Varibike features a 7005/7020 aluminum frame and is priced at €3,999 (US$5,350).
The newer €4,499 ($6,019) FR3 model adds separate freewheels to each arm crank. This allows them to be used not only in the traditional opposing configuration, but also in "Synchron Style," in which they stay side-by-side to produce a sort of rowing motion. Additionally, riders can just leave them both pointing forward, to serve as a set of aero bars.

UGG Women's Ladder Shrug w/ Shearling Trim
This shrug reminds me of a carriage ride in the snow. I love the exposed sheepskin trim, so very snow bunnyish!
The rough and tumble UGG gets a wee bit tender when decorated with a blushing floral print. Turn them down for a more casual look, or go full frontal romantic with the full length of the print.
Comfort and warmth now costs $140. Remember when UGG was a brand bought by poor people? :-)Tags: fashion, winter, gifts, shoes, Clothes, accessories, style, boots, womens shoesAdded 9 Years Ago from Neiman Marcus Online
If i was unsure of what colour i wanted before, now that this metallic color is out im even more confused!!! Price $180 for this new style.
Trade in your standard UGGs for this updated style. You still have the warmth and comfort of sheepskin, however the leather and suede exterior is a bit more chic.Added 9 Years Ago from Saks Fifth Avenue

--moni444I used to be so depressed, i'd hurt myself. I listen to screamo music somehow it just idunno, helps. Sometimes, i think about hurting myself again. I often wonder what it'd feel like to give myself pain, i forget how it feels. But I don't really want to hurt myself. I'll just eat a bunch of icecream give myself brainfreeze. that's painful enough. :l--UndeadSolderIt's easy for me to solve my issue without getting mad, but when it's ['Nyan Cat FLY!' related] hard work I've been working on for precious hours of my time being destroyed, run as fast as you can to get away, I'll GRRRRRR until my throat hurts.--natashatonGingerz, yeah, I itch myself sometimes after pulling it back and forth so many times... you don't have to feel sorry. Some people want to hear what happened to me in elementary, but I have figured they're cold from telling; they'll raise their eyebrow, and give an awful face expression while saying it isn't funny. I don't know what makes them think I'm the kind of person who giggles over non-humorous, rather serious facts. --RamonaGirl Previous Page Next Page

Law Schools Deceiving Students
In an article about how law schools deceive prospective students, one way astonished me. Thomas Jefferson School of Law in San Diego reported that 92% of their graduates are employed 9 months after graduation. That 92% included the 25% of the students they couldn't locate. Which is in accord with the guidelines, said the associate dean of student affairs.

Apr 01, 2008 - Ethan is the curly hair specialist in Austin. He always understands exactly what I want in a style and he always does a fantastic job. He has been my stylist for six years and he exceeds my expectations every time. I never end up with mushroom head (if you have curly hair you absolutely know what this is) and he recommends the perfect products, but doesn't try to oversell. I am always being complimented on my hair, and I always recommend Ethan.

"Those good folk of Yorkshire who claim 'you don't get owt for nowt' clearly need a rethink, because there are a wealth of options for days out in and around the north and Scotland to be had without being hit in the pocket."
Those good folk of Yorkshire who claim 'you don't get owt for nowt' clearly need a rethink, because there are a wealth of options for days out in and around the north and Scotland to be had without being hit in the pocket. Leading the pack are all the national museums plus many art galleries which open their doors to the public without an admission price in sight. Take our tour around the region's free for alls.
If art is your thing, you're in luck with the Gallery of Modern Art, Glasgow, easily accessible on the network. Opened just over 10 years ago, GoMA is the second most visited contemporary art museum outside London (keep reading to find out which takes the top spot).
If you're further east, then Edinburgh is the place to head with a wealth of attractions on offer for the cash-conscious. The People's Story Museum is worth noting for the clever way oral history and written sources tell the story of everyday folks' lives, work and leisure from the late 18th century to the present day. The museum is filled with the sights, sounds and smells of the past: feel the despair of the dungeon, the convivial camaraderie of the 'pub' and the demands of political and social reformers who, no doubt, would take great pleasure from knowing that the world can still be your oyster without paying a princely sum.
North west
Taking a trip 'down line' on the network takes you to Carlisle Cathedral (left), which has provided 900 years of sanctuary from the surrounding chaos of Roman invasions, Viking raids and a history of tug-of-war for the city's ownership between the Scots and the English. Further south on the Barrow-and-Furness line is the tranquil setting of Conishead Priory, home to Manjushri Buddhist Centre. Here you can soak up the peace and indulge in your own private meditations as you walk through the 70 acres of gardens and woodlands, with their rich variety of flora and fauna.
For something a bit wilder, follow the screams of excitement (and terror!) to Blackpool's world-famous Pleasure Beach. And you needn't be worried about being taken for a ride, as the Pleasure Beach has sensibly frozen plans to charge for admission and, for now, entry remains free - although rides and roller coasters come with a fee.
Further south
At the southern end of the network, make a beeline for The Quays, a waterfront destination two miles from Manchester city centre. The Quays is home to the Imperial War Museum North, which was built to resemble three shards of a shattered globe, representing conflict on land, air and sea. Inside, the museum explores the way that 20th-century combat has shaped our lives.
If you want to escape the bustle of the city, beat a retreat to Heaton Park, just four miles north from the hub of Manchester city centre. Despite its size (over 600 acres), the park is well kept and beautiful to walk around,
or if your feet are tired from window shopping in the city (another free activity), you can use its own tram system. Family friendly, with two good play areas for children, Heaton Park also has a delightful animal centre where you
can meet the three resident alpacas.
Head to the western end of the line for a spot of art at the most visited contemporary art gallery outside London, Tate Liverpool. Despite having just relinquished its crown as European Capital of Culture, Liverpool remains a vibrant city with plenty to offer that won't break the bank.
Or go east to another Yorkshire gem: the recently refurbished and award-winning Museums Sheffield: Weston Park, home to interactive displays demonstrating the life and times of the great Steel City. You can even go back to the Ice Age to learn how to build an igloo.
North east
If Leeds is your destination, put the Royal Armouries on your agenda. Opened in 1996, this national collection displays 8,500 objects throughout its five themed galleries. As well as the impressive range of armour and other war-related objects, such as a scary-looking horned helmet and spears, you can see horse shows (including jousting), falconry displays and live combat by knights in shining armour - although some events may incur an entry fee.
While you're in the area, hop on a train heading east to Garforth station and visit Lotherton Bird Gardens, home to 200 rare and endangered species, the black hornbill included. Every continent in the world is represented and beautifully displayed in large enclosures, so you can see birds from as far afield as South Africa and the Philippines without the need to clock up any air miles in the process.
Carry on along the line to the east coast and spend the day exploring Hull's unique Museums Quarter. Set in the heart of Hull's Old Town, it consists of Wilberforce House - home to the man who helped bring an end to slavery - the Hull and East Riding Museum, Streetlife Transport Museum and the Arctic Corsair trawler. With so many choices there's something for everyone.
Further north along the line is another classic option which proves that being on an economy drive doesn't have to mean settling for second best: the National Railway Museum in York. Just a few minutes' walk from York station, this celebration of 300 years of railway history attracts around a million visitors a year, who come to marvel at legendary locomotives such as The Flying Scotsman, Mallard and a replica of Stephenson's Rocket, without having to pay a penny for the privilege.
These are just a few of the fun day out options open to you, and there are plenty more to be discovered that prove you don't need money to have a good time.

Moultrie D-55IR Digital Camera Highlights
Thanks to invisible infrared technology, the Game Spy D-55IR gives you the ability to monitor your land, track deer and wildlife patterns, and view the visitors that frequent your food plots, without alarming the game. Equipped with a powerful infrared (IR) sensor, the D-55IR trail camera takes photos in standard photo mode by day, and at night the camera uses a virtually undetectable infrared flash instead of visible white light to make scouting the trail to track deer and other wildlife easier than ever. Coming in a tough, water-resistant camouflage casing, offering rapid response time, and boasting an easy-to-operate, menu-driven LCD display, the D-55IR Camera will deliver the hunt through high quality images that you can count on--all at an affordable price.
Crisp, Brilliant, Easy-to-Read Images:
In the daytime, the D-55IR game camera captures crisp, color images of up to 5-megapixels out to 50 feet and easy-to-read infrared pictures by night. Three selectable image resolutions allow you to get the most out of your SD card (16-GB maximum). In addition, the camera can take video clips day or night with two selectable video resolutions, and multi-shot pictures (up to 3 shots). An added feature of the D-55IR is the 1-to-60-minute picture delay. Checking your photos is easier than ever with an easy-to-read photo strip on the bottom of the picture, listing the temperature, moon phase, time, date, and camera ID on every photo.
Image/Movie Features:
5.0 megapixels
Three picture resolutions
Two video resolutions
Color day pictures
Infrared night pictures
Video clips during the day (5/15/30 seconds)
Infrared night video clips
Two video resolutions
Multi-shot pictures (up to 3 shots)
5 seconds between multi-shots
Picture delay, set 1 to 60 minutes
Photo strip lists: temperature, moon phase, time, date and camera ID on every photo
Easy Set Up/Easy Operation/Easy Image Access:
The D-55IR camera comes with a mounting strap included so that you can attach it to any standing object. The camera uses 6 C-cell batteries to operate, or you can use the external power port for the optional Moultrie PowerPanel. Thanks to its weather-resistant, airtight camera housing and seal, you can leave the camera out in any weather, worry free. And, finally, equipped with infrared aim, camera setup is quick and precise.
Equipped with a memory card slot that accepts up to a 16 GB SDHC card, the D-55IR allows you to choose among three resolutions for photos and two resolutions for videos to reduce the frequency of memory card changes. When you do get out to your hunting camp to check things, the game camera's easy-to-operate LCD menu-driven display shows how much battery life remains, how many pictures have been taken, how many pictures remain, and the events that occurred.
The camera's SD card, USB port, and TV out port are easy to reach on the bottom of the camera and make accessing, viewing, and uploading your images a cinch. Able to support a 16-GB SD card, the camera has enough memory for multiple days in the field.
Package includes:
Moultrie Game Spy D-55IR Digital Camera, USB Cable, User Manual
We are importers of photographic equipment, from aim and shoot cameras to advanced SLR cameras and associated lenses, flashes etc. We have an office in Naboomspruit, Limpopo Province in South Africa, as well as in Torrance, California in the USA.

You would need a boost leak test kit (which are super cheap and simple) and an air compressor.. remove the air filter, stick the leak tester in, pressurize 10-15psi, listen for leaks.
It could be due to a preturbo exhaust leak as well. You should check over all the connections between the turbo and the throttlebody, as well as exhaust connections from the heads to the turbo. If you have a bad exhaust leak it might be a good idea to install new gaskets.

Local Dentist Urges Patients to Get Checked for Oral Cancer
Oral cancer kills one American every hour...
Dentists say it's widespread... but not enough people know how to prevent it.
And, that could be because it's commonly thought of as an "old man's disease"... tied to older men who smoke.
But that's not the case anymore.
Dr. Timothy Millward, who works at University Family Dentistry in Gainesville, says almost 30,000 people will be diagnosed in the country this year with oral cancer.
It affects young women and men, and 25 percent of cases affect people with no known risk factors... like drinking and smoking.
The exam, Vizilite, is like a glow stick that detects any problems in your mouth.
Dr. Millward says just as you would get checked from breast or prostate cancer every year, an oral cancer exam should also be a priority.

I was browsing around and I stumbled upon service Bulletin 02-103-07. I searched and I couldn't see an answer to my question.
Do you guys know what model years are affected by this? It looks like it was published back in 2007.
This is the bulletin about a screen in the oil feed supply to the turbo getting clogged. Does my 2011 WRX have this screen? Should I loose sleep over this?

Wondering if others have experienced this before I contact the dealer.
I noticed my security light flashing recently. According to the manual, my car is in valey mode (security light flashes every 3 seconds), so I followed the steps in order to disable valey mode.
For the 07, you sit in the car, insert key and turn to ON position. Then, press and hold the unlock button on the drivers door, and you must open the door within 1 second. Keep the unlock button pressed for 10 seconds then you will hear the horn beep. 1 beep means alarm is activated, 2 beeps means deactivated. There is also supposed to be a code displayed in the odometer area indicating mode of the alarm.
Well, I perform the steps, the horn beeps once after 10 seconds; but there is no code displayed on the odometer. Hmm... Then I remove the key, and the security light still flashes! Tried repeating above steps and read the manual again to be sure I'm following the instructions.
The only thing I've done to may car recently was disconnect the battery in order to change the head light bulbs.

Ok i picked up a strenth routine from fight fit magazine and gave it ago , only ever done wieghts for show before so this was new to me , real simple bread and butter stuff heavy wieghts low reps more sets stuff
The basics of dead lifts squats bench and id fiddle about with bi's n tri's never found time for shoulders with doing bjj twice a week also
I was very impressed with the results , im not a big guy 75kg but felt good strenth improvments
But wasnt long before i started getting plauged by back injuries , before long i couldnt even look at a squat or dead lift with out pulling something.
So went back to more body building wieghts for 2 or 3 weeks , then went on holiday and had about 2 weeks no training at all. Started again this week and ......wow its gone ? Every shread of strenth has just evaporated
So the question is , is strenth a relentless battle that soon as u stop training it it starts to fade or is there a secret to building it up slowly so it stays

I recently upgraded to headers. Because I am from California, installing Cats is a must due to the strict emission laws. However, even with the cats installed, I was getting the check engine light. After doing some research, I conducted the defouler trick.
After peforming this fix, my car has logged over 200 miles and my check engine light hasn't come back once. I scanned my car for hidden error codes with my Peake Reader and it seems like the "inefficiency" codes is a thing of the past.
I have a better picture of the modified/drilled out defouler if anyone wants to see it. The hardest part is drilling out the darn suckers. It is tuff and you get metal shaving/shapnels in your eyes, ears, balls, and mouth.
Good luck with this DIY. Again, your mileage may vary depending on your car's setup.

Chief Deputy Whip Peter Roskam (R-IL) released the following statement on the report released today by the Congressional Budget Office (CBO) that warned the economy will enter a recession in 2013 if nothing is done to prevent the country from going over the fiscal cliff:
"The latest CBO report should be a wake-up call to the president; he must address the out-of-control spending that has put our country on this serve downward path. It is time for the White House and the Democrat-controlled Senate to finally come forward with a plan to prevent our economy from going over the fiscal cliff. Every day, their inaction brings American families closer to another recession.
"House Republicans have done our job--we passed our plan to avoid the fiscal cliff and we have proposed numerous reforms to get our economy back on track. Today's news begs the question, how many warning signs do the president and Senate Democrats need before they take the threat of a double dip recession seriously?"

Perceptions of visitor relationship marketing opportunities by destination marketers : an importance-performance analysis
Murdy, Samantha & Pike, Steven D. (2012) Perceptions of visitor relationship marketing opportunities by destination marketers : an importance-performance analysis. Tourism Management, 33(5), pp. 1281-1285.

Customer relationship marketing (CRM) initiatives are increasingly being adopted by businesses in the attempt to enhance brand loyalty and stimulate repeat purchases. The purpose of this study was to examine the extent to which destination marketing organisations (DMOs) around the world have developed a visitor relationship marketing (VRM) orientation. The proposition underpinning the study is that maintaining meaningful dialogue with previous visitors in some markets would represent a more efficient use of resources than above the line advertising to attract new visitors. Importance-performance analysis was utilised to measure destination marketers' perceptions of the efficacy of CRM initiatives, and then rate their own organisation's performance across the same range of initiatives. A key finding was that mean importance was higher than perceived performance for every item. While the small sample limits generalisability, in general there are appears to be a lack of strategic intent by DMOs to invest in VRM.

Lemon Ricotta Risotto with Asparagus, Peas, and Prosciutto
This risotto is a lot more lemony than you might expect, so get ready for some bracing tang along with the rich cheeses.
Recipe: Lemon Ricotta Risotto with Asparagus, Peas, and Prosciutto
Pair with: Sauvignon Blanc. It's a great friend to spring ingredients: Its crisp acidity and fresh herb components warm up to asparagus, peas, and tangy ricotta. Our bottle pick, with a little oak, is a good texture match for rice. Recommended bottle: 1070 Green 2011 Sauvignon Blanc (Napa Valley).

It took one game for Dane Crist to play his way out of the starting quarterback role at Notre Dame and Tommy Rees will start Saturday in the first night game ever played at Michigan Stadium.
Crist was 7 for 15 with an interception and 95 yards in Notre Dame's' season-opening 23-20 loss to South Florida in South Bend, a loss that knocked the 18th-ranked Irish out of this week's top 25. Rees, who started and won the last four games of the 2010 season when Crist was injured, completed 24 of 34 passes with two picks for 296 yards and two touchdowns.
"Dane did some really good things for us in the first half...but I want to win right now," coach Brian Kelly said during his Monday press conference. "We don't live in the future at Notre Dame, we live in the now and right now Tommy Rees gives us the best chance of winning against Michigan."
