COOKEVILLE, Tenn. -- Tennessee Tech comes home to Tucker Stadium Saturday afternoon to host a dangerous Eastern Illinois Panther squad for the Golden Eagles' annual Homecoming game. Kickoff is at 1:30 p.m. CDT.
The Golden Eagles will pick themselves up and come out with plenty of fight after being floored last week with a 22-21 loss at No. 21 Tennessee State after time had expired. Sophomore quarterback Darian Stone nearly directed Tech to an improbable upset in his first career start, throwing for two touchdowns and rushing for another as the Golden Eagles built a 21-15 lead. The Tech defense held TSU out of the end zone, forcing the Tigers to settle for five field goals inside the red zone, until Tennessee State managed the final-minute, game-winning drive.
Eastern Illinois, meanwhile, comes to town in the thick of the OVC title race with a 4-1 league record after smashing pre-season favorite Eastern Kentucky, 24-7, on the road last week.
Tech has won the last two games against Eastern Illinois, posting a 31-20 victory last year in Charleston after claiming a 34-20 win in 2010, the last time these two teams tangled in Tucker Stadium.
In addition to Homecoming, it's also the Hall of Fame game when the four inductees to the TTU Sports Hall of Fame will be recognized.
THE SERIES — Eastern Illinois owns a 12-6 edge in the previous 18 games in the series, but the Golden Eagles have won the last two games. Tech claimed a 34-20 victory in Tucker Stadium in the 2010 season, the last time they met in Cookeville. The Golden Eagles also earned a 31-20 victory last year on the Panthers' home turf. Prior to that, Eastern Illinois had won five straight from 2005 to 2009.
HOMECOMING GAME — The game will be Tech's annual Homecoming contest. Tech is 43-37 all-time in Homecoming games, but has lost the last two to Eastern Kentucky in 2010 and Murray State in 2011. Eastern Illinois has been Tech's Homecoming guest three times, with the Panthers' owning a 2-1 edge in those games. EIU won 35-28 in Tech's 2002 Homecoming game, Tech won 40-37 in overtime in 2004, and EIU won 38-14 in 2006.
THE SENIOR CLASS — The 2012 senior class includes 19 players who will be recognized next week (Nov. 10) at Senior Day vs. UT Martin. Tech's senior class includes Jordan Adams, Slade Adams, Michael Baker, Hunter Beedle, Zach Bush, Chris Dickerson, Marcus Edwards, Howard Griffin, Taylor Hennigan, Tremaine Hudson, Will Johnson, Tre Lamb, Tommie McBride, Caleb Mitchell, Matt Moran, Kedrick Towles, Adam Urbano, LaDarrius Verge and Zack Ziegler.
ACADEMIC ALL-DISTRICT — The Golden Eagles have three players on the ballot for CoSIDA Academic All-District honors in 2012. The players who have met the tough criteria, including a 3.3 GPA, include junior James Normand and sophomores Stephen Bush and Cody Matthews. Last year, Normand was named to the Academic All-District team along with graduated senior Corey Watson.

GAME NOTES: Fresh off its first road victory of the season Eastern Illinois will travel to defending OVC Champion Tennessee Tech for the Golden Eagles Homecoming on Saturday. Both teams are coming off matchups with nationally-ranked teams a week ago, as EIU won at No. 18 Eastern Kentucky and Tennessee Tech lost on the last play of the game at No. 21 Tennessee State. Eastern Illinois leads the all-time series 12-6 although Tennessee Tech has won the last two meetings in the series (after EIU had previously won 9 of the previous 10). A season ago Tech pulled out to a 31-7 lead after three quarters and held on for a 31-20 victory. Jimmy Garoppolo completed 29-of-52 passes for 301 yards and three touchdowns, but he also threw three interceptions and was sacked four times. With the negative sack yardage EIU finished the game with -6 yards of rushing. Tre Lamb completed 22-of-27 passes for 240 yards and a score while Dontey Gay rushed for 96 yards and three scores for the Golden Eagles.
SCOUTING EASTERN ILLINOIS: Eastern Illinois picked up its first victory over a nationally-ranked team since 2009 (a 28-20 win over No. 12 Jacksonville State) when the team went to No. 18 Eastern Kentucky and won 24-7. The win was also the first road victory of the season for the Panthers who are now 4-1 in the OVC this year, putting them in a three-way tie for first place with Tennessee State and UT Martin. Wide receiver Erik Lora caught 10 passes for 97 yards and a score and in the process began the OVC's single-season receptions leader with 93 (breaking the old mark of 92 held by Samford's Efrem Hill). The 93 catches now ranks 25th in NCAA FCS history and Lora is on pace to break the all-time record of 123 (finishing with 128 on the year). Lora continues to rank first nationally in every major receiving category and was added to the Walter Payton Watch List last week. Quarterback Jimmy Garoppolo, who has won throw a touchdown in 23-straight games, passed for 266 yards and a score in the game; he ranks fourth nationally in points responsible for (19.0/game) and fifth in total offense (344.88 yards/game). Jake Walker rushed for 119 yards and a score; it marked his third-straight 100-yard rushing game. The Panthers defense did not allow a 100-yard rusher for the sixth time this season as the defense racked up 12.0 tackles-for-loss and 5.0 sacks in the game. Senior Artavious Dowdell was named OVC Defensive Player of the Week after registering seven tackles, 2.0 tackles-for-loss, a sack and a quarterback hurry.
SCOUTING TENNESSEE TECH: Tennessee Tech squared off with its third nationally-ranked team of the season on Saturday, playing at No. 21 Tennessee State. The Golden Eagles pulled ahead 21-15 early in the fourth quarter when backup quarterback Darian Stone (playing for the injured Tre Lamb) capped a 9-play, 61-yard drive with a six-yard touchdown pass to Cody Matthews. But TTU would suffer a heartbreaking 22-21 defeat, as TSU scored its lone touchdown of the game on the final play of the contest. Stone finished with 77 passing yards and two touchdowns and rushed for a team-high 86 yards and a score. Newcomer Da'Rick Rogers, who entered the game ranked in the Top 10 nationally in receiving yards/game, was held without catch in the contest. Punter Chad Zinchini had another great game, punting five times for a 52.6 yard average, including a long of 60 yards and one punt downed inside the 20-yard line. Zinchini now ranks sixth nationally in punting (44.75 yards/punt).

Singer, songwriter, guitarist, b Quebec City, to a Canadian father and US mother, 24 Dec 1957. Her childhood was spent between Paris, Montreal and Val-d'Or, Que. She studied violin and classical guitar at the CMM, and jazz guitar at Saint-Laurent College.
She hosted radio shows on Montreal station CKOI and, when she began singing, opened for Rick Derringer, Chris de Burgh and Leo Sayer. She sang in bars of Montreal's West End prior to recording her first album. Her romantic lyrics coupled with melodies inspired by jazz and South American music charmed critics immediately. Following a one-year stay in New York, she launched her second LP featuring the hit 'Gilberto'.
'Gone are the wooden clogs and prehistoric skirts, gone are the homespun recordings where spontaneity covered up for lack of technique, gone is the musical macrame and the political guilt feelings: Diane Tell heralds the era of technocrats and professionals, image-makers and career-builders,' Nathalie Petrowski wrote in Le Devoir (Montreal).
For her debut release, Diane Tell's beautiful Brasilian tinged pop-jazz album is sung entirely in French against a sophisticated selection of melodies.

LOUISVILLE, Ky. (Jan. 20, 2010) - After an up-and-down first tournament last weekend the 62nd-ranked ETSU men's tennis team returns to action for a 5:00 p.m., contest Thursday at No. 20 Louisville inside the Bass-Rudd Tennis Center.
After the nationally ranked Bucs struggled early on last Saturday and Sunday, head coach Yaser Zaatini's club closed out the Duke Invitational by winning seven out of 10 matches against No. 70 Elon Monday.
Individually, ETSU is led by the doubles team of sophomore Sander Gille (Kuringen, Belgium), and freshman Jesus Bandres (Caracas, Venezuela). The Buccaneer duo - which is currently ranked No. 52 in the most recent ITA poll - earned top honors at Duke posting a perfect 3-0 mark over the three-day event.
Louisville welcomes the Bucs after breezing past both of its early opponents last week. The Cardinals rolled past IUPUI and Murray State 7-0 last Saturday.
Louisville is led by a trio of ranked singles players in No. 46 junior Andrew Childs, No. 80 Andrew Carter and No. 84 ranked Simon Childs.

2011 Nissan Murano ReviewThis car review is specific to this model, not the actual vehicle for sale.
The world's first SUV convertible.
Structurally, the new Nissan Murano CrossCabriolet is far more than a Murano crossover SUV with the top chopped off, but basically it's not. Introduced at the LA Auto Show November 2010, it was met with skepticism and kidding, for solving a problem nobody knew they had. The story goes that the CrossCabriolet was the brainchild of Nissan's dynamic president, Carlos Ghosn; the idea was met with disbelief, but what the president wants, the president gets.
So here it is, and only time will tell if it's too far out there, or if it's the reinvention of versatility, as Nissan marketing now calls it.
It can't be denied that some people actually do need an SUV convertible. The market for the CrossCabriolet is mostly the Northeast, for those who need four-wheel-drive traction in cold winters, and want open-air enjoyment in hot summers. Call it the first climate change car, built for our new weather extremes. All-wheel drive is standard on the Murano CrossCabriolet.
The CrossCabriolet maintains the silhouette of a Murano, but about four-fifths of the sheetmetal is new, everything except the A-pillars, hood and front fenders. Edgy fender flares front and rear and a gap for off-road ground clearance over the tires make the CrossCabriolet statement: Take me to the boonies, I'm ready. The look is especially striking when the top is down. The Nissan design team wanted to express a feeling of sky and earth, and they have.
Two of the Murano doors have been sacrificed in order to keep the roofless chassis structure strong. The remaining two doors have been widened nearly 8 inches to allow easier entry and exit to the rear seat. The CrossCabriolet is a four-seater, instead of the Murano's five.
The quality cloth top with fabric liner comes in black or beige, and looks sleek with its low profile. Using aluminum and magnesium rails, it goes up or down in 25 seconds. There's a unique narrow skylight that runs the width of the top, and is located just over the rear glass, filtering light onto the heads of the rear passengers and making the interior feel more open.
When the top is down, the tall windscreen and the car's high beltline make passengers feel confined and protected. Even with the windows lowered at 75 mph, there isn't much buffeting. Raise the windows and it's whisper quiet with nothing but the sky above.
The overall lines of the interior, including wonderfully comfortable seats, are sculpted and curved, subtly, so it works. However legroom in the rear has been lost, as space had to be made for the top when it's down. It's a pretty slim 32.7 inches now. Cargo space is slim, as well.
The CrossCabriolet uses the exceptional Nissan 3.5-liter DOHC V6 engine, with all-wheel drive and a second-generation CVT transmission with good logic control, but no manual mode. The ride is very smooth. Handling isn't nimble but neither is it heavy.
The CrossCabriolet feels like it's pulling a lot of weight when you accelerate uphill to maybe 40 mph. But when you get out on the freeway and boot it, all 265 horses behind the wonderful engine pull you smoothly and effortlessly up to 80 miles per hour. We love this engine. Fuel economy is 17/22 mpg City/Highway.
The 2011 Nissan Murano CrossCabriolet ($46,390) comes as one model, fully loaded, no options, except for camel-colored leather.
Standard equipment includes leather upholstery, dual-zone climate control, 7-inch display screen, rearview camera, navigation system with XM traffic, 9.3GB MusicBox hard drive, Bose 8-speaker audio, heated seats and steering wheel, power tilt/telescoping steering wheel with controls, remote entry, bi-xenon projector beam headlamps, foglamps, heated mirrors, 20-inch alloy wheels.
Safety equipment includes dual-stage frontal airbags, side-impact airbags in front, door-mounted airbag curtains with rollover sensor, active headrests in front, popup rollbars for rear passengers, tire pressure monitor, anti-lock brakes, Vehicle Dynamic Control with traction control, and all-wheel drive.
Murano CrossCabriolet certainly is distinctive, because of the top, whether it's up or down. No one looks twice at a Murano any more, but everyone, especially women, looked at our CrossCabriolet as we drove it around Southern California streets with the top down. Regardless of whatever ribbing Nissan has been taking for solving a problem that nobody had, when a carmaker comes up with a car that everybody looks at and smiles at, they feel they've done something right.
Besides, some people actually do need an SUV convertible. They need four-wheel-drive traction in cold winters and want open-air enjoyment in hot summers.
The CrossCabriolet maintains the silhouette of a Murano, but about four-fifths of the sheetmetal is new, everything except the A pillars, hood and front fenders. There's a new front fascia, and also everything from the reinforced A pillars back, especially the doors. (The Murano also features new styling for 2011.)
Two of the Murano doors have been sacrificed in order to keep the roofless chassis structure of the CrossCabriolet strong. The remaining two doors have been widened by 7.9 inches, in order to allow easier entry and exit to the rear seat. There are no B-pillars.
The sides of the car curve upward into the shape of a small J, where they meet the low-profile roofline. J-motion waistline, Nissan calls it, the shape adding both roof height and trunk space. The feature is more pronounced with the top down, as it encompasses the heads of the rear passengers and seats them in a secure small well, without blocking their visibility. Sporty-looking brushed aluminum rollbars rise behind their heads, and pop up another six inches if triggered by rollover sensors.
The pop-up rollbars will smash the skylight if that happens. It's a horizontal slit over the rear passenger's shoulders that opens things up and raises the roof, at least in the occupants' minds.
Edgy fender flares front and rear, and a gap for off-road ground clearance over the tires, make the CrossCabriolet statement: take me to the boonies, I'm ready. The look is especially striking when the top is down. The Nissan design team wanted to express a feeling of 'sky and earth,' and they have.
Boomerang taillamps are traced from the Nissan 370Z and Maxima, and split five-spoke 20-inch alloy wheels finish off the styling.
The CrossCabriolet interior begins where the Murano top of the line interior ends, says Nissan. The only option for the entire vehicle is Camel leather, and although it's the same double-stitched leather as the black or beige, the beautiful brown color (with black trim) might just be worth it.
The overall lines of the interior, including the very comfortable seats, are sculpted and curved, subtly, so it works. The forward view of the rear seat passengers is helped by sloping shoulders of the front seats. The trim looks nice in half-matte chrome finish, which we usually just describe as brushed aluminum. There's just enough wood trim, light or darker, on the console and front-door armrests.
From the high driver's seating position, it feels like what it is: a big SUV with no roof. Visibility out the rear with the top up is pinched a bit, but sideview mirror visibility is good. The instruments look clean and sharp in white on black, and all the buttons and knobs on the dashboard and center console are good and functional.
A 7-inch display screen is used by the rearview camera whenever backing up. The rest of the time it's used by the navigation system, which comes with XM traffic.
With the top down, the interior space is sheltered from the wind. 'Confined and protected,' Nissan says, describing the feeling. We drove the CrossCabriolet with the windows up, down, half up, and front-rear up-down, and were sheltered all ways. So no screen or shield seems to be needed, behind the rear seats or at the top of the windshield. Turbulence is kept out of the car by the tall windshield, high beltline, and high rear shoulders from the J-motion design. Conversations between driver and passenger are easy. We didn't have any passengers in the rear seat, but even they should be able to talk to the driver without having to shout into the wind. Even with the windows down at 75 mph, there wasn't much buffeting. When we raised the windows, it got whisper quiet even at that speed.
Those backseat passengers are positioned 3.6 inches closer to the front seat, than in the Murano SUV. Rear legroom has been lost, down to a slim 32.7 inches from 36.3 inches, to create storage space for the soft top. The good news is that there's tons of hip room with the rear bench reduced from three seats to two, with a console and two fixed cupholders in between.
The front seatbacks flop forward and the seats slide forward, to enable entry and exit for the back seat. It's not the slickest method we've come across, but it works.
With the top up, there's good trunk room of 12.3 cubic feet. When the top is down it rides on a shelf in the back, so trunk space then gets slashed to 7.6 cubic feet. Cargo space is not the CrossCabriolet's strong point.
The quality cloth top with fabric liner comes in black or beige, and looks sleek with its low profile. Using aluminum and magnesium rails, it goes up or down in 25 seconds, even with the car moving at a few miles per hour, for example if you're in a freeway traffic jam and a thunder shower comes along; or the opposite, and you decide you might as well get some rays while you're stuck in traffic. Expect to attract attention when doing this.
Driving Impression
Our first impression was that the steering wheel shook, over rough pavement. It wasn't the old convertible cowl shake, but it was some kind of shake forward of the A pillars. A fellow journalist with whom we shared seat time called it a vibration, occurring at speeds of 40 mph and below. He felt it on smooth pavement, but we only felt it over patches. Once at 50 mph it shook a lot, at least a lot for a brand-new $46,000 vehicle.
The rest of the time, the ride was very smooth. The handling around-town wasn't exactly nimble, but it didn't feel heavy as we thought it might. A bit slow, but it is what it is.
There's no manual mode to the CVT, which can be a dealbreaker in some cars, but not the CrossCabriolet. Nissan seems to have figured out how to program the continuously variable transaxle so it feels more like an automatic transmission and less like a tachometer-jumping CVT. Nissan calls their second-generation CVT Xtronic, using Adaptive Shift Control for sporty response. We like it.
The CrossCabriolet feels like it's pulling a lot of weight, when you accelerate uphill to maybe 40 mph, even with its 248 pound-feet of torque, which peaks at 4400 rpm. That's because it is; it's pulling 4438 pounds, or 230 pounds more than the Murano, distributed at 57/43. That knocks 1 mpg off the fuel mileage, down to 17 highway and 22 city.
But when you get out on the freeway and boot it, all 265 horses behind the wonderful 3.5-liter V6 pull you smoothly and effortlessly up to 80 miles per hour. We love this engine, and always have.
The Nissan Murano CrossCabriolet deserves points for originality, and versatility too. It's ideal if you want 4WD traction in winter and sun on your face in summer. Its high beltline provides a cozy and secure cabin that's sheltered from the wind with room for four. And it comes fully loaded. The soft top is sleek when it's up and goes down in 25 seconds. The V6 engine is wonderful and the transmission is great. It's all you could ask for, first time out for a brave new genre.

Postgame quotes after the Revs fell to the Philadelphia Union at Gillette Stadium on August 28, 2010.
We were in total control. It took them 70 minutes before Bobby (Shuttleworth) had a save. The first goal, the guy took it well. The second goal is just disappointing from a lot of points. But at the end of the day, the way we defended and kept our shape and kept them out and kept them quiet for 80 minutes, it was great. But then you run out of legs eventually. Playing a man down, eventually, there's going to be holes.
We went out tonight to get three points. And up until Cory (Gibbs) is sent off, we were pretty much sitting comfortable. One-nil up, Bob (Shuttleworth) hasn't had a save to make, and then the referee's decision totally changes the game.
When you're playing a man down for nearly an hour, it's tough. The guys stuck to the task well. Just a couple of let-downs really punched us. But if it's 11 men versus 11 men, we win that game comfortably.
When you lose a game like this, it is very frustrating…three games in a row. That's football, we have to deal with it. We have to forget it as soon as possible because we have an important game on Wednesday.
It was a bad finish for us, especially when you let in a goal in the last minute like this. For me, if you score and you don't win, I forget about it.
We had a couple of set pieces where I thought we were going to nick one. It's always tough, a man down, guys are out of position. We were throwing numbers forward, trying to get the win, but that's what happens.
I take full responsibility - I muffed the clearance. I don't know if we didn't track runners, or what the problem was, but I probably should have had the ball off the clearance. We were stretched… but that's soccer.
We were creating some good chances there in the beginning. We got the goal and I think we were comfortable. It's always going to be tough when you have 10 men against nine.
I think we started okay. I think we stuck to the game play. They had the majority of possession, but they weren't really creating anything too dangerous. They were going side to side and we were happy to let them do that. It was comfortable, and then two mistakes and we lose the game.
It's frustrating as it is. It's disheartening. It's behind us. The MLS season for us has been a difficult one, and we're in a difficult situation right now. We've got an opportunity to get some hardware, and get something out of the season. Our focus is on that.
Fresh legs always help. We just lost of focus for a second or two. I don't know if they got lucky or it was our mistake or what, but it's a tough on to take.
I think the whole group did a very good job after our last game on Sunday to prepare themselves for the game. I think on a night like tonight, the boys become the men. It looks like we got our mojo back. The movement of the ball, the passing – especially in the second half – gives us the life back.
I think as a group, as a team, we did a pretty good job defensively today to limit their chances. We are very confident in the back, which a very good sign to go forward. With the win tonight – especially against the team that is in front of us – was good for our confidence and going forward with the games we have left.
Every game is important. The way we played in the second half, especially the ball movement and the off-the-ball movement, the creation of the chances, was a good sign. One of those nights that your two youngsters, they score on goal. Roger (Torres) got in and did a very good job as well. It's very positive to get three points and move forward.
The goal felt good. I just wanted to get out there and help the team. We had a goal by Jack (McInerney) and it was a good fight for the guys all around. I think that we definitely deserved to win in the end.
Coach just said, "Make a push." We're up a guy, pressure them and if we have the ball we need to attack. That was kind of the plan and it was just a matter of breaking them down.
We know we are in a tough position now but we have nine games left and if we put a string of wins together then there is no reason why we can't come back into the hunt. Each game is going to be very important and we definitely haven't given up by any means. So we'll take it from the next game and hopefully come away with three points.

Well, here comes Google's first real shot at Facebook, introducing the +1 button, essentially, Google's own "like" button and a step into social that will start appearing for people who have joined the experiment in Google Labs. The +1 button will hit search results from this week, allowing people to "+1″ search results, leaving a visual recommendation for your friends to see.
This button provides a few things for Google, firstly, a dramatic increase in "Google Profile" setups (something that just really hasn't performed well) that really needs to hit a critical mass to have the same social acquisition effect that Facebook is enjoying.
Secondly, it's about ad targeting data… Facebook are now clear leaders in terms of display ads, and will dominate over the next few years while they are the only ones letting advertisers leverage user-defined profile information to develop highly targeted ad campaigns, Google doesn't have this, and they need it to compete in a social world.
Then comes the SEO puzzle, what impact will hundreds of +1′s have on your page ranking? Is this going to become another "click fraud" style issue? And don't forget all the recommendation engine's Google could pull out of it, and how they could mine that social data… Exciting times are ahead this year, so make sure you join the +1 button experiment here. More on this another day!

New Orleans Best of Dining 2012
Top Places, People and Discoveries
(page 1 of 9)
So this guy is looking at a menu and asks the waiter, "What is the soup du jour?" "How should I know?" the waiter responds. "They change it every day."
We expect, and get, more from our restaurant professionals in a town where the dining industry is a passion as well as an economic development tool. On any day our range of soups could include not only the regular fare but also dark-rouxed gumbos or savory bisques. What does change every day is restaurants' news. For that, the flow is steady and the challenges many, as we continue to look for the best in an ever-changing industry.
Each year our restaurant writing staff huddles in a closed conference room to discuss the best of dining for the past 12 months. As always, the choices are many. Those who we select are all certifiably excellent, but we know that there are other worthy choices out there, too. That is why year after year we keep looking – because there are always new pots to be stirred.
Chef of the Year | Alon Shaya
Food as happiness
When Alon Shaya was 7 years old, his grandparents came over from Israel to spend the summer with him in Philadelphia. "The whole time, my grandmother was in the kitchen, cooking up a storm," he recalls. "I'd open the front door and this aroma would hit me in the face. And I remember not so much being excited about the food, as I was excited that she was there. Ever since, I've associated food with togetherness and just being happy."
Shaya began working in restaurants when he was 14. As chance would have it, his first employers were Italian. He felt innately comfortable around that food, as it shared some similarities with the Israeli food he grew up with, ingredients like olives, goat cheese and roasted eggplant. And while he didn't consciously set out to cook Italian, this confluence of family and serendipity laid the groundwork for what would later become Domenica.
Domenica has enjoyed praise from the get-go, but it has leveled up in the past year. Early press brought John Besh's name to the fore, but now it is all about Shaya – and with good reason. A combination of practical business sense – Shaya has leveraged the popularity of his Neapolitan-style pizzas to include a delivery service and a broader array of offerings – is one reason. But a bigger reason is that his technical ability and his personal expressiveness have come into harmony with his dishes, which are turned out by a focused and highly attenuated staff. "We all really know each other well – a lot of them have been here since day one," Shaya says of his crew. "Things just flow."
Domenica's genesis and more recent evolution is the product of two significant journeys. The first, the cornerstone, was Shaya's extended stint in Italy in 2007 leading up to the opening, where he absorbed Italian cuisine from both technical and cultural perspectives. The second was a trip to Israel a year and a half ago as a guest of the Jewish Federation of New Orleans, where he cooked for a number of charity events as well as a Shabbat dinner, culminating with a meal for Israeli troops in the Golan Heights. "That trip just really moved me and just gave me a flashback to my childhood," he says. Shaya came back inspired, and influences began to appear on the menu at Domenica shortly thereafter.
The cavernous room is carved out of the Old World opulence of the Roosevelt Hotel. It contrasts with the rustic feel of paper placemat menus and glasses made from recycled wine bottles. It is clearly a sophisticated place, but it makes an effort to keep itself grounded. Light dishes, such as Shaya's tender Octopus Carpaccio, exist alongside showier set pieces, such as a whole roasted cauliflower dressed with sea-salt and whipped goat cheese. An earthy tagliatelle with rabbit and porcini mushrooms warms like a hug. But despite the assortment of choices, a diner here could be utterly satisfied without getting past the charcuterie plate.
Among the house-cured meats is a garnet-hued bresaola, and for spreads there's a particularly silky duck liver pâté enhanced with Moscato. The prosciutto moves so fast that they import it from Italy, but all other items are made in-house. It isn't just the meats, though – cheeses add another dimension, like a surprisingly mild blue from Sardegna and a sharp pecorino. The accompaniments include, lately, a pickled fennel along with warmed olives and Shaya's addictive mostarda made with candied fruits underscored with sharp mustard. "That's the way I like to eat," Shaya says. "Mix and match like 30 different flavors all off the same platter." A tip from Shaya – drape a ribbon of shaved lardo over his torta fritta. The heat from the savory beignet causes the lard to meld into the pastry, doubling-down the goodness.
Israeli influences can be seen in a new pizza featuring puréed eggplant first roasted under the cherry-red coals of his wood-burning oven. Topped with extra-virgin olive oil, goat cheese and tomatoes, it gets finished with tahini. "Now there is nothing Italian about tahini, but the flavors on the pizza really come together," he says.
Most notably though, these influences aren't fusion; they're expression. Domenica is and always will be Italian. But Domenica now speaks more pointedly with Shaya's voice. "Of course I have to balance it because we are an Italian restaurant, and people are expecting Italian," he points out. "Southern cuisine plays just as much of a role in that as well. So you'll see the menu now as compared when we opened three years ago as still holding onto this Italian backbone but with these hints of Israeli and Southern low-country coming through."
It has been a big year both professionally and personally for Shaya, who got married in March. When not busy at Domenica, he enjoys entertaining at home. While on honeymoon in Barcelona, he bought a paella pan, which figures in his home cooking along with a Big Green Egg smoker. He likes shopping at Hong Kong Market on the West Bank, and is also a fan of Ideal Market on Broad and Banks streets in Mid-City, where he goes for tortillas and fresh salsas. "I hit the farmers markets' for proteins. I get Bayou Farm's chicken for the smoker and goat from Bill Ryals. I cook Italian all day long at Domenica, so I like to mix it up at home." In this way, Shaya remains connected to the boy in the kitchen at summertime. "I roast bell peppers over the open flame on my gas stove just like my grandmother did," he says. "And now whenever I roast a bell pepper like that, I think of her."

To make the dressing: Finely chop the garlic and anchovies in a food processor. Blend in the lemon juice and mustard. With the machine running, gradually blend in the oil. Season the dressing, to taste, with salt and pepper.
To make the croutons: Spread the olive oil over a small baking sheet. Transfer the hot polenta to the baking sheet, spreading evenly to form an 8 by 5 by 3/4-inch-thick rectangle. Cover and refrigerate until cold and firm, about 2 hours.
Cut the polenta into 3/4-inch cubes. Pat the polenta cubes dry with paper towels. Add enough vegetable oil to a heavy large frying pan to come 1-inch up the sides of the pan. Heat the oil over high heat. Working in batches of 10, carefully add the polenta cubes to the oil 1 at a time and fry until golden brown, stirring to keep the cubes separate, about 2 minutes. Using a slotted spoon, transfer the polenta croutons to a paper towel-lined plate to drain any excess oil.
(The dressing and polenta croutons can be prepared 1 day ahead up to this point. Cover the dressing and polenta croutons separately and refrigerate. Rewarm the polenta croutons on a baking sheet in a 350 degrees F oven before serving.)
To make the salad: Prepare the barbecue for high heat. Grill the lettuce until lightly charred, about 2 minutes per side. Cut the lettuce into bite-size pieces.
On a serving platter, mound the grilled chopped lettuce. Decoratively scatter the sun-dried tomatoes and pine nuts. Drizzle with enough dressing to evenly coat. Sprinkle Parmesan and scatter the warm polenta croutons over and serve immediately.
Bring 3 cups of water to a boil in a heavy large saucepan. Add salt. Gradually whisk in the cornmeal. Reduce the heat to low and cook until the mixture thickens and the cornmeal is tender, stirring often, about 12 to 15 minutes. Turn off the heat. Add the butter, and stir until melted.
Lightly oil a half sheet pan. Transfer the hot polenta to the prepared baking dish, spreading evenly to 3/4-inch thick. Refrigerate until cold and firm, about 2 hours.

I tried the compressor with a huge javascript file, containing a whole javascript-based game.
the script:
If i compress it, even without those BASE and shrink values options, the output WILL NOT work. I dont know why, but my game doesn't do anything with its output.
The game is playable - with the original script - online @ http://www.levensweg.net/tetris/
i need to compress it... so plz fix it :P
BTW, there is absolutely no UBB or even a line break support on this forum...
i just found out i can just put HTML on this forum :P
Even if the output doesn't work... it's a GREAT compressor! it compressed almost 50%
You might be missing a ; some ware in the code. You can use JsLint to help find the bug. You might only be able to do jsmin. Rember that a=function () {} should have a ; after it. This is my most common problem with javascript.
Try http://www.boryi.com
[free] [online] javascript obfuscator[free] [online] javascript/html/css/xml/xslt compressor
"Base62 encode" error:
1. I checked my javascript code using various validators and found all "missing ;"2. All javascripts work just fine when loaded uncompressed, but once I compress it here using "Base62 encode", I get following FireFox error:
"missing ; before statement"
So I took a look and already after few first characters in compressed code I found following:eval(function(p,a,c,k,e,r){e=function(c){return(c<a?'':e(parseInt(c/a)))+((c=c%a)>35?String.fromCharCode(c+29):c.toString(36))};
As far as my limited knowledge goes, I would say that it should look like this:eval(function(p,a,c,k,e,r){e=function(c){return(c<a?'':e(parseInt(c/a)))+((c=c%a)>35?String.fromCharCode(c+29):c.toString(36));};
Where focus is on the end of this code:)}; versus );};
These ; missing in Base62 encoded code are more.
Is this correct?.
example: alert(1);alert(2);
then the ";" is required. This is why your code is working before you compress the code, adding the ";" where the validators are telling you to should fix this problem.
Note that the Packer make all the commands into one long line of code

Wabash junior Michael Jordan escaped any injury during Chile's massive earthquake. But the natural disaster has delayed the departure for classmate Jacob Surface.
Both young men have been in the news.
From the South Bend Tribune:
Also escaping the quake without injury was Michael Jordan, of Granger.
News that Michael was safe brought a flood of relief to his parents, Deb and Ron Jordan of Granger. They were able to arrange a Skype voice call over the Internet with their son on Saturday afternoon.
"I was able to see him (on the screen) and he was fine," Deb Jordan recalled. "I'm much better. On Saturday I was hysterical until I heard from him.''
Michael, 21, a junior at Wabash College, left Feb. 22 for a four-month study-abroad program in Chile and Argentina.
He was staying with a host family in a private home when the earthquake struck, his mother said. The house sustained some damage but no one was hurt, she said.
"He said he was apprehensive. He said, 'I want classes to start,' " she said.
The program in which Michael is enrolled provides classes at Universidad Alberto Hurtado, a Jesuit university in downtown Santiago. Her son was meeting today with program administrators to see if the study and travel program in which he is enrolled will proceed in the aftermath of the earthquake.
Michael is a 2007 Penn High School graduate.
From the Paper of Montgomery County:
A Wabash College student is waiting patiently to begin his study abroad trip in Chile, a country that recently suffered an earthquake of an even higher magnitude than that which hit Haiti earlier this year.
Jacob Surface, a junior at Wabash, was planning to leave this week to take classes in Chile through the Institute for Study Abroad at Butler University. However, his studies have been delayed.
Surface was supposed to fly to Valparaiso, Chile, today. The coastal city near Santiago is a little more than 200 miles north of the epicenter, sustaining enough damage to delay his flight.
Surface has yet to speak with his host family, although he had made contact with another Wabash student who flew into Santiago just before the earthquake struck. Everyone in the Butler program is OK and accounted for.
Indianapolis' Fox 59 News visited Surface at his Crawfordsville home to report on his delayed departure for Chile.

ERBIL, Iraq, April 3 (UPI) -- An incident involving HKN Energy in the Kurdish region of Iraq was tied to a labor dispute and not related to security issues, the Kurdish government said.
British newspaper The Daily Mail reported this week about 120 oil workers were held hostage. The report said workers with HKN Energy were held at a compound near the Turkish border since Friday.
The Kurdistan Regional Government issued a statement saying accounts of the incident in the international media were erroneous.
"The incident was not a serious security situation and at no time were any attempts made to take hostages," the KRG said. "The incident was caused by a labor dispute involving local workers who had not been paid since October last year."
The British newspaper quoted Schlumberger engineer Brock Fettes as saying "heavily armed" villagers shut down a rig at the Sarsang oil field, operated by HKN Energy, demanding money.
"The situation will obviously be resolved if they pay them but, until then, we are being held hostage," he was quoted as saying.
The KRG said HKN was asked to shutter the facility while the labor dispute was resolved.
"During the incident, an employee for the oil services company Schlumberger working at the site made a number of inaccurate comments to the media," the KRG said.
Lingering violence and disputes involving the KRG and the central government have presented challenges to Iraq's post-war oil sector.

When leaders meet Tuesday for the Organization of American States (OAS) meeting in Honduras, Cuba's possible readmission to the regional body after a nearly 50-year suspension is expected to top the agenda.
Some regional leaders, mostly left-leaning ones, are calling for a resolution to drop the suspension, arguing that it's a cold war relic. The US, Cuba's No. 1 foe, says that it is open to Cuba's membership as long as the island nation fulfills its obligations to guarantee democracy under a 2001 OAS charter. It could, in theory, go to a vote in the next two days, but most analysts say they believe this week's meeting will merely pave the way for a future compromise.
Still, it underscores the desire on the part of many Latin American countries to engage with Cuba and to force the US to listen to the regional consensus. "This whole issue is as much a symbolic issue about how the US deals with Latin America as it is an issue about Cuba," says William LeoGrande, a Cuba expert at American University in Washington. "Historically the US did whatever it wanted in the hemisphere and got away with it. Now Latin America is insisting that the US respect its point of view and play as an equal."
Is a thaw in the works?
The OAS meeting comes as relations between the US and Cuba advance toward a thaw. Over the weekend, Cuba said it accepted a US proposal to restart talks on migration and the resumption of mail service between the two countries.
Though most say that an end to the decades-old embargo on Cuba is far from imminent, hopes of a more functional relationship with Cuba have been high since Fidel Castro officially stepped down as the country's leader last year and with the election of President Barack Obama.
Before the Summit of the Americas meeting in Trinidad and Tobago this spring, the Obama administration announced its first relaxation of rules toward Cuba, including easing both travel restrictions on Cuban-Americans and limits to remittances.
The administration reached out to Cuba regarding the migration rules on May 22, after talks broke down in 2003. Cuba said it would also reconsider aiding the US in its fight against terrorism and drug trafficking, as well as hurricane disaster preparation.
'Committed to a new approach'
"President Obama and I are committed to a new approach," Secretary of State Hillary Clinton said at the start of her Central America trip this week. "We believe we have made more progress in four months than has been made in a number of years."
In some ways, they have no choice but to change course, as Latin American leaders put pressure on the US. With the inauguration of left-leaning President Mauricio Funes of El Salvador, who restored that country's full diplomatic relations with Cuba on Monday, the US remains alone in its severed ties.
"Latin America is unified around the desire to see Cuba reincorporated into the inter-American system and a desire for the US to lift the embargo on Cuba," says Daniel Erikson, a senior fellow at the Inter-American Dialogue, a think tank in Washington, and author of the recently published book "The Cuba Wars."
Latin American leaders have stepped up their protest after this year's change in power in Washington. "The Bush administration was so confrontational in its approach of isolating Cuba that the desire to see a policy change had been suppressed for the last eight years," says Mr. Erikson. "The Obama administration is now dealing with this wave of outcry from Latin America on the Cuba issue."
The new rules announced will give the US a diplomatic edge as the OAS meeting begins, handing the region proof that it is not as entrenched in its positions as previous administrations. "This is Washington trying to position itself so it can say to Latin America, 'look we are taking steps; we are moving forward,'" says Mr. LeoGrande.
US stance on Cuba's democracy shared by many
Still, the US position on Cuba's reforms might not be the fringe, says Mr. Erikson. Because of Cuba's record on stifling political dissent and failing to hold fair elections, many agree with a US position that says Cuba should only be allowed membership once it fulfills a 2001 OAS charter mandate to ensure democracy. "We have said that we look forward to the day when Cuba, if it so wishes, can rejoin the OAS," Ms. Clinton said. "We believe that membership in the OAS comes with responsibilities and that we must all hold each other accountable."
That position is backed by various players. "Cuba needs to produce some significant changes toward freedom and democracy to be included in the OAS," says Omar Lopez, the human rights director at the Cuban American National Foundation (CANF) in Miami.
Otherwise, many say, the OAS will violate its own charter. Human Rights Watch on Monday called for the OAS to reject any vote in favor of Cuba's admission. "OAS members have made an explicit commitment to promote human rights and the rule of law in the region," said Jose Miguel Vivanco, Americas director at Human Rights Watch, in a statement. "Cuba should not be considered a full member of the OAS – not because of its government's political ideology, but rather because of its flagrant violation of the fundamental freedoms enshrined in the Inter-American Democratic Charter."
Cuba says it 'does not need the OAS'
As the debate swirls, Cuba has said it has no desire to join the regional body. Granma, the Communist Party newspaper in Cuba, said on Friday that Cuba "does not need the OAS. It does not want it, even reformed. We will never return to that decrepit old house of Washington."
Lifting its suspension would require that two-thirds of members vote in favor of a resolution. Because compromise is unlikely, says Erikson, he expects calls for more dialogue, either because countries are too divided on the issue or a resolution becomes too watered down.

Hi! I'd like to use your product for my dog's ID tags. My dog, Ruby, already has a collar that I love, (black with red polka dots), that I'd like to slip your ID tag through. Her collar is just barely over 1" wide. Will your tag work?
Thank you for your question about our LACE-IT-UP IDmeBAND Engraved Shoe ID. The side openings on this Engraved ID are approximately 3/4" long so it would not be the best fit for Ruby's polka dot collar. A better choice would be our Dog IDmeBAND, which slides onto any 1" width collar.

What is mysticism?
The background to this series of letters is the teaching coming out of the mystical tradition. We have already heard some of the wisdom from the Desert and we will continue to look in subsequent letters at the teaching of the mystics throughout the centuries up to our time.
But what is mysticism and what is the relevance of the mystics for us in our time? Mysticism is a modern word. The early Christians did not use this term but spoke only of certain experiences as being mystical.
Bernard McGinn, a perceptive and knowledgeable writer who has engaged with this topic in his series of books on the history of Western Mysticism, says: "The mystical element in Christianity is that part of its belief and practices that concerns the preparation for, the consciousness of, and the reaction to what can be described as the immediate or direct presence of God."
This really is the aim of engaging seriously in meditation, contemplative prayer. It allows us to break through the rational level of our ordinary consciousness to a higher intuitive level of consciousness. It teaches us to 'leave self behind', to leave our self-centred view of reality and in doing so allows us to transcend the ego and reach that wider, more open mode of perception. It moves us from a knowledge based reality to one informed by the wisdom of the Divine Reality. Then we enter insightful states, where we just 'know' without knowing, where we are held in love. It is a way of becoming fully alive, from a life centred on survival to one of meaning, as John Main explains so beautifully:
"More and more men and women in our society are beginning to understand that our personal problems and the problems we face as a society are basically spiritual problems. What more and more of us understand is that the human spirit cannot find fulfilment in mere material success or prosperity. It isn't that material success or prosperity is bad in itself but they are simply not adequate as a final or ultimate answer to the human situation....To know ourselves, to understand ourselves, and to get our problems and ourselves into perspective, we simply must make contact with our spirit." This in fact he sees as our prime responsibility as a human being: "Our first task...is to find our own spirit because this is our lifeline with the Spirit of God."
Meditation leads us onto the path of 'finding our own spirit' and it is a path not only for the mystics but for ordinary people. The mystics are our research scientist; they prove it can be done and all they say is based not on theory but on experience. Dedication and faithful perseverance leads us to our Centre, to the presence of the spirit within ourselves, where our essence "is being emanated and renewed by the loving overflow of the life of the Trinity." (Word into Silence)

2002 Nissan Frontier ReviewThis car review is specific to this model, not the actual vehicle for sale.
Ready for the long haul with long-bed Crew Cab.
Now you can haul four passengers and a full load of cargo at the same time because the Nissan Frontier Crew Cab is available with a 6-foot long-bed.
This new, longer bed addresses one of the biggest drawbacks to the new crew cab compact pickups: short cargo beds. In the past, buyers have had to accept a short bed to gain real back seats: the bed on the Nissan Frontier Crew Cab short bed is less than 5 feet long (56.3 inches). That's not an issue for many buyers, but those who need a long bed really need a long bed.
Nissan's Frontier line offers a lot of excitement with bold, industrial styling and an optional supercharged engine. Frontier was redesigned for 2001. For 2002, the model line includes 19 configurations.
Two body styles are available, King Cab and Crew Cab. Each is available in three trim levels: XE, SE and SC. King Cab and Crew Cab models offer a choice of three engines: a 2.4-liter four-cylinder, a 3.3-liter V6, and a supercharged 3.3-liter V6. Each is available with two-wheel drive or four-wheel drive. Desert Runner 4x2 V6 models are also available.
King Cabs offer front bucket seats and additional seating for two passengers in fold-down rear jump seats. King Cab beds are 74.6 inches long (6 feet, 2.6 inches).
Crew Cab Long Bed models are the biggest news for 2002. The long bed adds a 74.6-inch full-size bed (6 feet, 2.6 inches) to the full-size cabin with four forward-hinged doors.
The standard Frontier Crew Cab offers a 56.3-inch bed (4 feet, 8.3 inches).
Crew Cabs are available in XE, SE and SC trim. Frontier Crew Cabs are built on the heavy-duty four-wheel drive Frontier chassis, but are available in 2WD or 4WD. All Crew Cabs use the 3.3-liter SOHC V6 engine, with the SC having the factory-installed supercharger made by Eaton, a company with a lengthy history designing and building superchargers.
Desert Runner models are also available. Essentially a 4x2 King Cab V6, a Desert Runner is modeled after specially prepared off-road race trucks used to pre-run Baja and other big desert races. Desert Runners are two-wheel drive, but feature the same heavy-duty chassis, ride height and stance as the rugged Frontier 4x4 models. At roughly 500 pounds lighter than a 4x4 Frontier King Cab V6, Desert Runners offer the best power-to-weight ratio of any Frontier pickup. Desert Runners come with fender flares, skid plates for the engine and fuel tank, a full-size spare and four-wheel ABS (4-channel/3-sensor). Special badges distinguish Desert Runner models, which are available in XE, SE, and S/C models. The S/C model includes a supercharged 3.3-liter V6 engine that produces 210 horsepower, with 246 foot-pounds of torque with automatic transmissions or 231 foot-pounds-feet of torque with five-speed manual gearboxes.
XE trim comes standard with the 143-horsepower 2.4-liter inline four-cylinder engine. Five-speed manual and four-speed automatic transmissions are available.
Frontier prices start at $12,799 for a base 2WD King Cab with a four-cylinder engine and five-speed manual. You may want to add another $1199 to that figure, however, for the Basic Gear package that includes air conditioning, an AM/FM/CD stereo. The base model comes with 15-inch wheels. XE starts at $13,799 and offers a slightly higher level of trim.
SE adds cruise control; tilt steering wheel; in-dash six-disc CD changer and steering wheel audio controls. Leather is optional with the SE, not available on XE; the SE comes with 16-inch wheels.
S/C models come with 17-inch wheels and that supercharged engine delivering more horsepower and torque.
The top King Cab model, with supercharger and four-wheel-drive, is $22,949. The Crew Cab starts at $18,199 and the supercharged, long-bed 4WD version is $26,349.
Most buyers (about 70 percent) are opting for the Crew Cab, according to Nissan, with half of those buying the short bed, half buying the long bed.
The 2002 Nissan Frontier presents a bold design. The big bold front end and fender flares offer a sporty industrial look, a cross between a power tool and a boxing glove. This truck won't go unnoticed like the bland Toyota Tacoma.
The powerful look begins in the body-colored grille, which incorporates a faux bash guard made of tough plastic, an original design. The front end comes off as bulky without being big, and the rounded edges further suggest that pow!-in-your-face boxing-glove look. The hoodline is tall, the clear halogen headlights and round Maxima foglights are oversized, and the turn signals goggle-like. The large fender flares with integral mud flaps span radial wheel arches, and have a finish that's deliberately duller than the body. They're attached by prominent tabs that look like bolt heads, which cause people to walk up and see if they twist. There's something right about any design feature that draws people to touch it.
At the back, a new tailgate cover comes standard with a tailgate lock; the lock is designed to keep the tailgate itself from being stolen, not what's in the bed. Because tailgates get smashed so easily the demand for them is high, which keeps thieves busy; the lock should slow them down at least. The gas tank opening is boldly notched into a fender flare.
Four-spoke 16-inch alloy wheels use a simple cross pattern, and are fitted with P255/65R16 tires on the 2WD SE; 4WD models come with wider and taller 265/70R16 tires. The supercharged S/C, either 2WD or 4WD, is planted to the ground with tires that are both tall and wide, P265/55R17.
Crew Cab long beds are 74.6 inches long (6 feet, 2.6 inches), just like the standard-length bed on the Frontier King Cab models. Crew Cab short beds are about 20 inches shorter than standard six-foot Frontier beds. The Crew Cab short bed holds just 33 cubic feet of cargo space, compared with 44.1 cubic feet for the remaining models.
About 16 inches of bed length can be gained on any of them with an optional bed extender, a hinged aluminum rack that effortlessly flips back 180 degrees to frame the end of the lowered tailgate. Flip the bed extender forward, close the tailgate, and it provides a contained area for groceries or other small cargo. When you want it out of the way, the bed extender is quickly removed. Unlike a solid tailgate, however, the bed extender won't hold back dirt or anything that can slip between the aluminum tubes.
On the roof is a beefy tubular rack, first featured on the Xterra; it can be fitted with Yakima attachments to carry skis, snowboards and mountain bikes. A bed-mounted bike rack is also available.
The engine compartment is tidy and roomy, and everything looks well balanced and accessible. The hood closes with a solid thunk, as do the four doors.
Frontier's interior effuses an industrial look that complements the exterior. The instrument panel is striking with a two-tone titanium-colored background. At night the numbers illuminate, but because they're outlined in white instead of being bold, they're difficult to read. The tachometer stretches to 8000 rpm despite the engine's 4800 rpm power peak, with a redline beginning at 6000 and running in a big pointless streak to eight grand. The digital clock is positioned so it's virtually impossible to read in the sunlight, and the little green lights indicating air conditioning are too dim and tiny to read.
The console layout is tidy and handsome. The center dash and instrument panel is a big improvement over the silver plastic used last year, which looked like someone painted it with a can of spray paint.
The CD changer holds six CDs, which can be selected with the six radio station buttons. There are two cool buttons for the emergency flashers and rear window defogger, rectangular and totally flat on the face of the panel. The heater controls are three big switches with wings, easy to operate when wearing gloves.
There are front and rear auxiliary DC outlets in addition to the cigarette lighter. Big fixed cup holders are provided front and rear; the front cup holders on the center console work well. There's another tray ideal for a cellphone forward of the shift lever. Three grab handles are provided for climbing in and out, and available running boards make the step up easy. Radio and cruise controls are located on the leather-wrapped steering wheel, with wide spokes located at 3, 9, 5 and 7 o'clock. The whole padded center is the horn, the best and safest operation because of quick access.
The front seats are comfortable and supportive. Leather is available in the Crew Cab. The leather seats are truly excellent, however. Long trips are comfortable.
Short trips in the back seats of the Crew Cab are fine for adults, but long rides may leave them feeling confined. We wouldn't want to ride very far back there. The rear seat space is tight in terms of knee room, but there's good head room and elbow room. We've found children are comfortable in the back seat of the Crew Cab. It provides for the secure installation of a child safety seat, something that can't always be found in extended cabs. Bigger people find little legroom in back. Technically it's a five-seater, but don't count on it. Don't count on even two adults being comfortable for long in the back seat if they're taller than five-foot-two. Getting in and out of the back seat is awkward for adults as they have to swing their feet around the B-pillars behind the front seats.
The rear and backseat windows are privacy glass, standard, with a rear window defogger. The optional flip-up sunroof ventilates, but doesn't fully open to the sky; it's covered from the inside with a removable headliner with plastic tabs.
Driving Impression
Nissan's Frontier rides and handles very well, for a truck. It feels nimble in corners, and the steering is responsive. The front wheels stay glued to the road when cornering and the rear end never feels light over bumps. It rides like a truck and you can feel road vibration through the steering wheel and seat of pants.
The Crew Cab is a bit heavier than two-door Frontiers; its 56-44 weight distribution is marginally better than the King Cab's 57-43. The Crew Cab also gets a rear stabilizer bar in addition to the standard front stabilizer bar. Low-profile tires probably make a significant contribution to the Frontier's handling prowess.
Solid is the word that keeps coming out of our driving notes: Consistent high ratings in every aspect, can't find a single quirk or flaw. Tight, smooth, consistent.
The anti-lock brakes do the job, although the Frontier uses less-expensive drum brakes in the rear.
The four-speed automatic transmission upshifts sharply, as smoothly as an expensive sedan when your foot's on the floor, and doesn't hunt a lot when the engine is being challenged on hills.
The standard 3.3-liter V6 accelerates with reasonable lightness, and a steady 70 mph comes at just 2700 rpm. But the engine growls like it's working pretty hard when the automatic transmission kicks down to tackle a hill. The 170 horses pulling this 3916-pound truck will be enough for most people, but more power is always nice.
The supercharged version of this engine improves acceleration performance, but it doesn't make the Frontier a hot rod. The additional 46 foot-pounds of torque should improve the towing performance.
Nissan's reputation for compact truck leadership remains on solid ground with a bold lineup of Frontier pickups. The styling looks great. These trucks handle well.
The Crew Cab increases versatility, though backseat legroom is lacking.

Robert Riddle, thanks you for this site. Some of USA efforts and money feed a dangerous ideology that seeks to demonize L.G.B.T. people and intensifies religious rhetoric until it results in violence. It is important for USA congregations hold their churches accountable for what their money does in Africa.
Views: 349
Thanks for the link Joan - checking it out now.
And that's why you shouldn't eat at Chick-Fil-A. They give a lot of money to groups who are involved with this sort of thing. It's bad enough that they give money to groups opposing gay rights in this country. But many of those same groups are trying to pass laws to actually kill gay people in Africa.
I feel disgusted to the core. I wish there were a god who would send them to hell and open up a line of communication with those still alive and acting like depraved beasts.
Right Joseph I made a discussion on the homophobic Chick-Fil-A president. I boycott them myself. No one should eat at a restaurant owned by bigots.
Steph, you give such loyal support to people and critters who need our efforts to correct some terrible wrong. I admire and respect you. Thanks.
Yeah, if I could do it without giving them money to contribute to influencing governments to execute gay people, I'd be all for it. I'd be sure to share what I was doing with the employees, as well.
Joseph, you write correctly. It is beyond my understanding how people can grow up in this country with the values we claim to have and then incite hate and intolerance. We need to keep these businesses in mind so we don't support hate with out dollars. Thanks.
Well, the civil marriage is the only part that really matters, anyway. After the priest marries you (the generic you; I doubt any of us would be getting married by a priest) at the altar, you're still not married in a way recognized by the state, until the priest files the paperwork for you. Homosexuals can just cut out the middleman, or go to a Unitarian church or one of the other rare denominations that will marry a homosexual couple.
Just as the first amendment should prevent people from forcing their religion on people, in the form of marriage bans, it also prevents the state from forcing those religious people to acknowledge the marriage through their church.
Yeah, well, I'm gonna go have my own marriage! With blackjack! And hookers!
Yeah, would be nice if we could have that happen here. Alas, legislating same-sex marriage in this country, at the federal level, is pretty much impossible. It's going to have to come from the Supreme Court.
I think we need an openly homosexual(M or F)on the supreme court. thats the only way.
An open LGBT atheist as one of the justices!
(We can dream....)
I hope wise, courageous people stand up for same-sex marriage!

Hollywood turns down the glitz following Paris attacks
In the wake of the deadly attacks in Paris, the entertainment world is toning down the glitz and scaling back on some of its most anticipated red carpet celebrations.
On Sunday, Lionsgate said the Monday premiere of "The Hunger Games: Mockingjay Part 2" in Los Angeles will be a slightly more subdued affair. Out of respect, the studio said, no interviews will be conducted at the premiere of the final chapter in the young-adult saga.
Such gestures proliferated over the weekend, as the entertainment industry reacted to the deadly attacks where the toll was highest at the Bataclan concert venue during a performance by the American rock group Eagles of Death Metal.
Instead of its regular cold opening with a sketch, "Saturday Night Live" opened with a tender monologue of solidarity, given by cast member Cecily Strong in French and English.
"Paris is the City of Light, and here in New York City, we know that light will never go out," Strong said.
Concerts in Paris and tours across Europe were canceled by U2, the Foo Fighters, Coldplay and others. Madonna went ahead with a concert in Stockholm, Sweden, but said during the show Saturday that she was apprehensive about it.
"In many ways I feel torn, because it's like, 'Why am I up here dancing and having fun when people are crying over the loss of their loved ones?'" Madonna told fans. "However, that is exactly what these people want to do. They want to shut us up. They want to silence us, and we won't let them. We will never let them."
CBS said Sunday it will replace an episode of the new series "Supergirl" that was supposed to deal with a bombing, and was shelving an episode of "NCIS: Los Angeles" about recruitment of young women by the Islamic State group.
At the Governors Awards on Saturday night in Los Angeles, many of the stars expressed their sympathies for the victims and their wariness at quickly returning to show business.
"Jada (wife Jada Pinkett Smith) and I were up all night," Will Smith said. "It's such a difficult, painful, awful, horrible situation and our hearts and our prayers go out to the families. It's one of those things where you feel helpless. What do you do? What's the solution? How do you help?"
Director Paul Feig said carrying on after the attacks was difficult.
"It does feel odd," Feig said. "I'm standing here in a tuxedo right now. But we honor those in Paris in solidarity with them. We love them. We love Paris. We are there all the time. We have friends there and when Paris bleeds we all bleed."

Model Gets Naked For Sexy Miley Cyrus 'Adore You' Parody (NSFW)
We adore EVERYTHING about this.
Check out Bryan Hawn's sexy naked "Adore You" parody video of Miley's latest hit! (And watch as he shows off his best ASSet.)
Yes, please.
Hope it doesn't get pulled from YouTube!
How's it stack up against Miley's original?? Like we even have to ask...
(H/T: The Gaily Grind)
I believe he does these videos to support the costs of keeping and maintaining his wild pet hyena. From what I understand, those wild animals live 16-25 years and if Jake (the pet) is now 4 years old (from his most current uploaded video) then he is going to have to keep supplementing his income to support this animal.
I'm not here to judge anyone. He does have a nice body but his online replies, comments and blogs, etc come across as being "too distant" with others. Even his mother said (animal planet documentary) that Bryan was a strange child and stuck to himself from people. Nonetheless, he deserves all the goodness Life can offer him because he has worked hard to create a platform for himself of "whatever it is" and that in it self is worth giving him the respect due regardless with or without clothes on. Really.
What I would like to know, if anyone can share please, is that I see that his youtubes offer a direct link to his own "paid website" for private members. I clicked to go there, cannot enter unless you pay with PayPal but according to that paid service, if purchased, the member agrees to "automatic monthly billing" via PayPal or your credit card used. That's fine. Not a problem but I did not pay to enter. Is there anyone here that HAS JOINED to share with us if Bryan offers "more in PRIVATE than the public viewing" for paid members please? If so, what is shown and why should we pay to see more (in private) if any? I do support his way of marketing himself because it does create revenue but I hope he is making enough money to SUPPORT Jake (his caged hyena) because that animal really should have deserved being in his own comfort zone out in the wild. Thank you everyone. Have a great weekend. Looking forward to some replies that do PAY to SUBSCRIBE to his him privately in his website. Bye, Richard
How sad to see how many of you take something like this video and launch attacks towards the guy in it as well as to each other. Everyone gets all fired up when something is said against gays and lesbians but the same people will stand there and attack their own for NO REASON!! How do you expect others to respect you for who you are, when you can't respect others for who they are!
ok... half of the people commenting are retarded. Have you guys not seen the original. It's a parody. All Miley does is roll around the bed for 4 minutes in love with herself. The fact that you are taking the video serious just means you missed the point of the parody.
and to those of you that want to pretend for 2 seconds that you are bored watching this either 1. you are blind, or 2. you don't have a functioning penis.
The same fuckers that are bitching are probably trying to rub one out to this. lol
Dude were you born this stupid? You clearly don't see that it is Miley frikking Cyrus singing and he's just lip-synching do you? or are you just hating cas you don't lift like the other dudes on here? Either way please go check your eyes and ears before commenting.Peace.
Oh and I'm sure you could act better, that's why you aren't.
Don't even find him attractive ... so tired of seeing only this kind of guy stereotyping the gay male. There are a great many of us who do not look like this, who do not care about eye candy, who like a normal looking to even heavier guy. When are gay men going to wake up and realize this kind of guy is not all there is?

Integrated Circuit Image Gallery
NEC V20 Microprocessor
The NEC V20 was Nippon Electric Company's (NEC) first venture into reverse-engineering an Intel microprocessor chip instead of licensing the designs, as was common practice in the 1980s. The move heralded the beginnings of a surge in Japan's now-giant semiconductor industry. The NEC V20 was directly interchangeable with Intel's 8088 microprocessor line, and featured a die having 29,000 transistors and a clock speed of 8 to 10 MHz. Due to the complete pin and signal compatibility, and an Intel 8088 simulation mode, some computer users exchanged their 8088 microprocessors for the newer and faster NEC chip. Sony also produced this microprocessor under license from NEC as the V20H.

Although the NEC chips use the same set of commands as their Intel counterparts, they are not identical. With over 75 percent of the microcode re-written, the V20 translated into a more efficient microprocessor having as much as a 30-percent increase in speed. NEC Technologies also developed the V30 chip, a compatible improvement to Intel's 8086 microprocessor. Even with the enhancements, a system running on a NEC V20 is 50 times less powerful than a modern entry-level personal computer, making the chip obsolete for most applications. However, new life has been provided for these old chips in low-powered portables such as the Hewlett-Packard palmtops operating at a 5.4 MHz clock speed and running the far-outdated DOS 5.0 operating system.
