WASHINGTON — Senator John Kerry, in a long and occasionally emotional farewell speech in the chamber where he represented Massachusetts for 28 years, praised the Senate's history of pragmatic compromise while warning that political gridlock in Washington threatens America's reputation abroad.
But the Bay State lawmaker expressed optimism during his 50-minute good-bye, urging his colleagues to heed the lessons he learned as a freshman legislator in 1985.
Thank you, Senator Kerry, for all your efforts. I wish you well in your new role. We're so fortunate to have your commitment to public service.
It is a sad and indefensible situation that we see in Washington these days, and losing your voice will not improve things there. I, too, condemn the state of affairs there:
"the decline of comity, the deluge of money, and the disregard for facts"
Washington: get the work done, or get out.
Oh and don't worry about the gridlock, we have Lizzie and Mo in there now...what a joke this state has become.

Oh Begzee. You can't spell. You can't source. You can't interpret. I really doubt you can golf for ____. But I've got nothing against you and I'm going to let you rant and rave in your unique, disjointed, nonsensical way without questioning you any more because you so obviously need to vent. So go at it- spew your nonsense about how Iowa's on the coast, or whatever you want, make it up as you go along. I'm beginning to find it all quite humorous, really. But you know, the world is changing, the country's changing, your Mittens lost the election and Obama's popularity is at a three-year high and there's really nothing you can say or do to make things Nice again, like they were when you were a pampered little boy. Sorry about all that, but that's just how it goes sometimes.

Carpenter pitches Cards past Nats 8-0 for 2-1 lead
WASHINGTON (AP) — Set aside the high-pressure task of postseason pitching that Chris Carpenter routinely masters for the St. Louis Cardinals and think about this:
Even the take-it-for-granted act of breathing feels odd on occasion now that he's missing a rib and two neck muscles.
Taking the mound for only the fourth time in 2012 after complicated surgery to cure numbness on his right side, the 37-year-old Carpenter spoiled the return of postseason baseball to Washington by throwing scoreless ball into the sixth inning, and the defending champion Cardinals beat the Nationals 8-0 Wednesday to take a 2-1 lead in their NL division series.
"To go from not being able to compete, and not only compete but help your team, to be able to be in this situation," Carpenter said, "it's pretty cool."
Rookie Pete Kozma delivered a three-run homer, and a trio of relievers finished the shutout for the Cardinals, who can end the best-of-five series in Thursday's Game 4 at Washington. Kyle Lohse will start for St. Louis. Ross Detwiler pitches for Washington, which is sticking to its long-stated plan of keeping Stephen Strasburg on the sideline the rest of the way.
"We're not out of this, by a long shot," Nationals manager Davey Johnson said. "Shoot, I've had my back to worse walls than this."
With the exception of Ian Desmond — 3 for 4 on Wednesday, 7 for 12 in the series — the Nationals' hitters are struggling mightily. They've scored a total of seven runs in the playoffs and went 0 for 8 with runners in scoring position and left 11 men on base in Game 3.
Rookie phenom Bryce Harper's woes, in particular, stand out: He went 0 for 5, dropping to 1 for 15. He went to the plate with an ash bat and no gloves in the first inning, tried wearing anti-glare tinted contact lenses on a sun-splashed afternoon — nothing helped.
"Nothing I can do," the 19-year-old Harper said. "I just missed a couple."
All in all, quite a damper on the day for a Nationals Park-record 45,017 red-wearing, towel-twirling fans witnessing the first major league postseason game in the nation's capital in 79 years. They didn't have much to enjoy, in part because of the problems created by Nationals starter Edwin Jackson, who was on the Cardinals' championship team a year ago. Continued...
"I didn't feel like I was out of rhythm. I didn't feel like I couldn't throw strikes. I just missed across the plate with a couple of balls and it cost me," Jackson said.
He gave up four consecutive hits in the second, the biggest being Kozma's first-pitch homer into the first row in left off a 94 mph fastball to make it 4-0. Kozma took over as the Cardinals' everyday shortstop in September, replacing injured All-Star Rafael Furcal, and only had 72 at-bats during the regular season.
But he's only the latest in a series of "Who's that?" stars of this postseason.
With the Capitol Dome rising beyond left field, the crowd of today was ready to root, root, root for the home team, breaking into chants of "Let's go, Nats!" after player introductions and again after a four-jet flyover. And, boy, did they boo — when Cardinals outfielder Jon Jay was announced as the game's first batter, when first-base umpire Jim Joyce missed a call, when catcher Yadier Molina trotted to chat with Carpenter, even when Carpenter paused between pitches to tie his red-and-gray right shoe.
"Carp's been a dominant pitcher his whole career. Big-game pitcher. He showed up," Washington's Jayson Werth said. "He pitched well today. We had him in some spots. We had him on the ropes a couple of times. We were just one bloop away from a totally different ballgame."
The Cardinals won 10 fewer games than the majors-best Nationals this season and finished second in the NL Central, nine games behind Cincinnati, sneaking into the postseason as the league's second wild-card under this year's new format. But the Cardinals become a different bunch in the high-pressure playoffs — no matter that slugger Albert Pujols and manager Tony La Russa are no longer around.
Carpenter still is, even though even he didn't expect to be pitching this year when he encountered problems during spring training and needed what Cardinals manager Mike Matheny termed a "radical" operation in July to correct a nerve problem.
"Everyone had written him off, kind of," Jay said. "It could have been a season-ending injury, where he could have just gone home and said, `See you later."'
The top rib on Carpenter's right side was removed, along with muscles that were constricting blood flow up there. After Wednesday's game, he squeezed his big right hand with his left, explaining, "Basically, my nerves were getting squished down by all the scar tissue and all the muscles and everything. There wasn't enough space."
Still adjusting to the way breathing feels different, he returned Sept. 21, going 0-2 in three starts totaling 17 innings, so it wasn't clear how he'd fare Wednesday. Continued...
Yeah, right.
Carpenter allowed seven hits and walked two across his 5 2-3 innings to improve to 10-2 over his career in the postseason. That includes a 4-0 mark while helping another group of wild-card Cardinals take the title in the 2011 World Series, when he won Game 7 against Texas.
The 10 victories tie Carpenter for seventh-most, behind Andy Pettitte's record 19.
"If the baseball world doesn't know what an amazing competitor he is by now, they haven't been paying any attention," Cardinals left fielder Matt Holliday said.
Carpenter collected a pair of hits, including a double off the wall in the fifth that was about a foot or two away from being a homer. When he reached second base, he raised his right fist.
Earlier, Carpenter stepped to the plate for his first at-bat and chatted with umpire Joe West.
"I say hello to him. And he said hello back, and he talked about what a beautiful day it was to play a baseball game. And I was like, `You ain't kidding,"' Carpenter recounted. "Beautiful weather. The crowd is going crazy. ... There's no question you take time to reflect on that."
NOTES: Holliday fouled a ball off his left leg in the eighth, stayed in to deliver a two-run single, then left for a pinch runner. ... Lohse beat the Braves in the wild-card game. ... Detwiler will be making the first postseason appearance of his career. His last regular-season start also came against the Cardinals, and he went only 2 1-3 innings, giving up seven runs. ... Wednesday was the 88th anniversary of Washington's only World Series championship, won by the Senators on Oct. 10, 1924.

Making Django 1.5 Compatible With Django-bcrypt
Last night I took the opportunity to upgrade all of getsentry.com to Django 1.5. While most things were fairly trivial to sort out, we hit one less obvious (and pretty critical) bug during the migration surrounding django-bcrypt.
This bug would only present itself if you've transitioned from older versions of Django, and therefore have passwords
in the database using the custom algorithm. Specifically, you'll have passwords in your user's table that look something
like bc$$somestring$12$somestring
The fix is actually fairly simple, and just requires you to define a slightly custom legacy backend for django-bcrypt:
1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 |
Once you've defined the backend, the rest is as simple as adding it to your list of password hashers:
1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 |
Update: As pointed out by @chrisstreeter it's also fairly trivial to do a data migration: https://gist.github.com/streeter/5534008

Happy New Year!
A New Year to a new you—Although I don't believe in New Year's resolutions, I do believe in setting goals to create a positive habit.
What do I mean by this? When it comes to the new year, everyone wants to completely change the way they live. For example, many decide they want a complete OVERHAUL of their lifestyle: wake up extra early to work out, eliminate sugar from their diet, and add more veggies to each meal.
Well, six weeks later all has been forgotten because it was too much change at once. We love the idea of a complete overhaul, a "makeover" or a fresh start, don't we? :) Unfortunately, most times they don't work for long term success. Why?
Because long-term success is built on HABITS. And when we overhaul our entire lifestyle, we end up failing at all of them because we're not giving them time to become habits.
So how can we make changes successfully? Create a list of four things you would like to accomplish in the long term. Now, choose one item to focus your attention for the next six weeks.
For some people the focus might be on nutrition such as to start eating breakfast every day or to switch from sandwiches to salads at lunch. For others, fitness might be the goal. Add to your calendar the time you will start your workout just as if it is an appointment that you must keep.
Studies show that for real change to occur and become a habit, it requires six weeks of focusing on one task.
Make your list and focus on ONE SINGLE GOAL for the next six weeks. Don't be too hard on yourself because there will be times when you will fail to reach your goal each day. Just stay focused and continue to make the necessary changes to be successful. At this time next year, just think of all the new HABITS you have instilled! Email me with your fitness and nutrition goals for the New Year—I would love to hear your progress!

I do monthly resolutions that are only good for one month. You don't have to do everything at once. If you bite off too much of a goal for the month you only have to hang in for 30 days. And you can push yourself with new things since you know it is only a month. And a month is long enough to develop some better habits.

Fiber Distributed Data Interface
This article includes a list of references, related reading or external links, but its sources remain unclear because it lacks inline citations. (January 2013) |
Fibre Distributed Data Interface (FDDI) provides a 100 Mbit/s optical standard for data transmission in local area network that can extend in range up to 200 kilometers (120 mi). Although FDDI logical topology is a ring-based token network, it does not use the IEEE 802.5 token ring protocol as its basis; instead, its protocol is derived from the IEEE 802.4 token bus timed token protocol. In addition to covering large geographical areas, FDDI local area networks can support thousands of users. As a standard underlying medium it uses optical fiber, although it can use copper cable, in which case it may be referred to as CDDI (Copper Distributed Data Interface), standardized by ANSI as TP-PMD (Twisted-Pair Physical Medium-Dependent), also referred to as TP-DDI (Twisted-Pair Distributed Data Interface). FDDI offers both a Dual-Attached Station (DAS), counter-rotating token ring topology and a Single-Attached Station (SAS), token bus passing ring topology.
FDDI was considered an attractive campus backbone technology in the early to mid 1990s since existing Ethernet networks only offered 10 Mbit/s transfer speeds and Token Ring networks only offered 4 Mbit/s or 16 Mbit/s speeds. Thus it was the preferred choice of that era for a high-speed backbone, but FDDI has since been effectively obsolesced by fast Ethernet which offered the same 100 Mbit/s speeds, but at a much lower cost and, since 1998, by Gigabit Ethernet due to its speed, and even lower cost, and ubiquity.
FDDI, as a product of American National Standards Institute X3T9.5 (now X3T12), conforms to the Open Systems Interconnection (OSI) model of functional layering of LANs using other protocols. FDDI-II, a version of FDDI, adds the capability to add circuit-switched service to the network so that it can also handle voice and video signals. Work has started to connect FDDI networks to the developing Synchronous Optical Network (SONET).
A FDDI network contains two rings, one as a secondary backup in case the primary ring fails. The primary ring offers up to 100 Mbit/s capacity. When a network has no requirement for the secondary ring to do backup, it can also carry data, extending capacity to 200 Mbit/s. The single ring can extend the maximum distance; a dual ring can extend 100 km (62 mi). FDDI has a larger maximum-frame size (4,352 bytes) than standard 100 Mbit/s Ethernet which only supports a maximum-frame size of 1,500 bytes, allowing better throughput.
Designers normally construct FDDI rings in the form of a "dual ring of trees" (see network topology). A small number of devices (typically infrastructure devices such as routers and concentrators rather than host computers) connect to both rings - hence the term "dual-attached". Host computers then connect as single-attached devices to the routers or concentrators. The dual ring in its most degenerate form simply collapses into a single device. Typically, a computer-room contains the whole dual ring, although some implementations have deployed FDDI as a Metropolitan area network.
Contents |
Mitigating failure [edit]
FDDI requires this network topology because the dual ring actually passes through each connected device and requires each such device to remain continuously operational. The standard actually allows for optical bypasses, but network engineers consider these unreliable and error-prone. Devices such as workstations and minicomputers that might not come under the control of the network managers are not suitable for connection to the dual ring.
As an alternative to using a dual-attached connection, a workstation can obtain the same degree of resilience through a dual-homed connection made simultaneously to two separate devices in the same FDDI ring. One of the connections becomes active while the other one is automatically blocked. If the first connection fails, the backup link takes over with no perceptible delay.
FDDI Frame Format [edit]
The FDDI data frame format as described in RFC 1188 is:
16 bits | 8 bits | 8 bits | 48 bits | 48 bits | up to 4478x8 bits | 32 bits | 16 bits |
- Preamble
- Start Delimiter
- Frame Control
- Destination Address
- Source Address
- Packet Data Unit
- Frame Check Sequence
- End Delimiter/Frame Status
Standards [edit]
FDDI standards include:
- ANSI X3.139-1987, Media Access Control (MAC) — also ISO 9314-2
- ANSI X3.148-1988, Physical Layer Protocol (PHY) — also ISO 9314-1
- ANSI X3.166-1989, Physical Medium Dependent (PMD) — also ISO 9314-3
- ANSI X3.184-1993, Single Mode Fiber Physical Medium Dependent (SMF-PMD) — also ISO 9314-4
- ANSI X3.229-1994, Station Management (SMT) — also ISO 9314-6

Hey everyone, we've decided to break off of our usual D&D/Pathfinder games and try a little Dark Heresy, and much like said games, we decided to record them and put them up on YouTube. Do be warned though, the first few sessions, we barely knew the rules, and less about the 40K lore, so expect us to botch things...a lot at first. For now, we're just doing the published adventures, but I'll eventually start doing homebrew stuff. Anyway, please subscribe and give feedback.

U.S. average gasoline and diesel fuel prices expected to be slightly lower in 2013 than in 2012.
U.S. average gasoline and diesel fuel prices expected to be slightly lower in 2013 than in 2012
Despite the recent run-up in gasoline prices, the U.S. Energy Information Administration expects falling crude oil prices will lead to a small decline in average motor fuel costs this year compared with last year.
The price for regular gasoline is expected to average $3.55 a gallon in 2013 and $3.39 next year, according to EIA's new Short-Term Energy Outlook. That's down from $3.63 a gallon in 2012.
For the short-term, however, pump prices are expected to peak at $3.73 per gallon in May because of higher seasonal fuel demand and refiners switching their production to make cleaner burning gasoline for the summer.
Diesel fuel will continue to cost more than gasoline because of strong global demand for diesel. Diesel will average $3.92 a gallon this year…down a few pennies from last year…and average $3.82 in 2014.

Let's face it, parents have a tendency to want to believe the best in their children.
This idea hit me especially hard when the mother of a young woman involved in an unspeakable crime spoke out in her daughter's defense as the media increasingly implied that her daughter was … well, maybe not that great a person.
In a nutshell, five police officers from a drug task force were serving a search warrant on a suspected drug dealer at his home when the guy, Cullen Mutrie, opened fire on them, injuring several and killing Greenland, NH's Chief of Police, Michael Maloney. Mutrie went on to kill a girl who was in the house with him at the time and then himself.
It was, to say the least, a clusterfuck … and one that really rocked the state of New Hampshire.
I was personally distraught on a number of levels, the first being that senseless death is always upsetting. It also seems especially horrible when someone is killed because of the nature of his job—I guess that I, as a public school teacher, always think back to school shootings. Finally, this took place less than ten minutes from my house. I literally watched police cars, ambulances, and even the ubiquitous black FBI van go charging past.
It was scary as hell.
But after the shock and the fear and the deep sadness that Chief Maloney, who was days away from his retirement, had been killed settled in a little bit, I started to wonder about Brittany Tibbets, the 26-year-old girl that Mutrie shot before turning the gun on himself. Who was she? Why was she there? What had her final minutes been like?
And then, almost on cue, her mother spoke out to the media, stating that her daughter and Mutrie had an on-again-off-again relationship.
"Did we have, maybe, concerns? Yes, but she's 26 years old. We hoped we raised someone who made good decisions, and she's the type of person that sees the good in people. Right now, it wasn't good," Donna Tibbetts said.
Despite the family's concerns about Mutrie, Donna Tibbets claimed they "never saw this coming".
The Tibbetts believe their daughter was only at the scene to help.
"I just don't want this to be what people remember her for," Donna Tibbetts said.
I have to say, I felt so damn bad for Donna Tibbets when I saw that on the news. I mean, no one wants to hear awful things about her kid in the media, especially when the family is deep …

FBI officials said they would begin digging a well along Flood Road in San Joaquin County on Thursday -- but whether they're concentrating their efforts in the correct spot is up for debate.
So-called "Speed Freak Killer" Wesley Shermantine sent a letter to the FBI from death row on the issue. Read the full letter here.
"So, this is your way of taking care of things -- to dig in a spot that I never said to," Shermantine wrote. "I did not send you to the area you are digging in. You planned to come up empty-handed the whole time. This way, you can claim my information is no good."
The FBI is continuing to search for possible victims of the Speed Freak Killers. The other person responsible for the dozens of methamphetamine-fueled killings that took place in the late '80s and early '90s is Loren Herzog.
Herzog was released from prison after his murder convictions were overturned on the basis of improper police work.
Herzog hanged himself at a home on the property of the High Desert State Prison, not long after Shermantine began telling investigators where they could find victims' bodies.
In regards to the most recent Shermantine letter, the FBI told KCRA 3 in a statement: "Shermantine's recollections have occasionally proved to be inaccurate, and only with thorough investigation and careful consideration have we been able to locate a site that offers the best chance of recovering victim remains."
Shermantine has also called Sacramento bounty hunter Leonard Padilla.
"He said they are a good 200 feet away from where he told them (to) search," Padilla said. "He has been 100 percent accurate so far."
Wrote Shermantine to the FBI: "You guys have been walking all over bodies out there in the ground."
The FBI has already spent two weeks preparing the area for the technical and hazardous excavation work.
Crews said they drilled a hole and collected a core sample 75 feet deep, and still have not found the bottom of the well.

TZ Tape
By Dave the Chemist
from Searcy, AR
The TZ Tape used with the labeling machine makes for sharp, clear print. The 3/4" size is good for labeling shelves in our stockroom. The backing peels off easily. The smallest sizes are sometimes a little difficult to get the backing tape off. It sticks firmly to smooth surfaces, yet comes off reasonably easy when you want to replace it. Probably would not want to apply it to paper for removal later.
good stuff
By bubbby
from clio, mi
i used this to label my tool cabinets and it was very helpful. I'm suggesting it to my patients to label thier clothing and personal item bins so unfamiliar people can find things easily. I reccommend this product to anyone wanting to organize themselves and help others to find things within ther own space. I used this product while working at GM and went through tons of tape, we labelsed everything to conform our entire shop to a workplace that was simple and unique to each operation.

good but expensive
By 0artisty
from alexandria va
This product is portable to use in most locations so that is a convenience. I think the cartridges are expensive and not very environmental although they have reduced the package size to help with the waste so that is a good restructuring. The labels stick well are a little tangly when you peel both sides off so be prepared for where they go and maybe leave one of the paper pieces on the back that reveal the sticky part in tack until you are ready to mount on surface. They do come off the wall easily and that is a plus.
Excellent Product!!

Perfect for Motorcycles or Armed Combat
Maybe the closest you've seen to real military combat is Call of Duty, but that doesn't mean you need to settle for second best in a cell phone headset. Do you think spec ops agents parachuting into enemy territory put up with the stock iPhone headset that picks up tons of wind noise? Not likely. Instead they use headsets based on Throat Mic technology.
What is a Throat Mic you say? Glad you asked! A Throat Mic hugs your neck and picks up sound directly from your vocal cords. This allows for two main features. You can whisper and still be heard clearly on the other end and the person you're speaking to hears no outside sound, only your voice. Therefore a throat mic based headset is perfect to use in any noisy environment... like while laying down mortar rounds, or cruising in your convertible.
Product Features
- Headset cancels all outside noise and picks up a whisper
- Advanced throat mic technology
- Perfect for noisy environments
- Integrated iPhone answer button on cord
- Compatible with any phone that you can use with headphones/earbuds
- Comfortable in-ear headset design
- Fully adjustable
- Durable combat-ready design

Bielat Won't Run for US Senate Seat
Nofolk state representative Dan Winslow and Cohasset businessman Gabriel Gomez are the only declared Republican candidates for the U.S. Senate.
There will be one less Norfolk resident in the race in the Massachusetts special Senate election to replace Secretary of State John Kerry. Republican Sean Bielat said Wednesday, while he thought he could run a strong campaign, that the timing wasn't right for running this time, according to an Associated Press report. Previously, he had run twice for Congress against Barney Frank and Joe Kennedy III, who he lost to in November. Norfolk state representative Dan Winslow is a candidate for the Republican nomination as is Cohasset businessman Gabriel Gomez. Former US Attorney Michael Sullivan is considering running. Bielat sought donations to run this weekend and filed a statement of candidacy with the Federal Election Commission.

A unique combination makes a surprising hybrid.
Austral Honda Sales Consultant
Tony has been selling New Honda vehicles at Austral Honda for 13 years now, and has seen many changes to the Honda range over this time. Contact him today to discuss your New Honda purchase.
Austral Honda Sales Consultant
Ingeniously, the Honda Insight goes against the hybrid grain to deliver a hybrid without the hard-to-operate bits and one that's more like a regular, everyday car. It's a new kind of hybrid.
They don't call the Insight a playful hybrid for nothing. Honda's Eco Assist system shows you how fuel efficiently you're driving. When you drive economically, flowers within the dash display begin to grow and, at the end of each journey, you're awarded an ECO score for good driving.
Compact and lightweight, Honda's Integrated Motor Assist (IMA) hybrid technology harnesses energy normally wasted when you brake and puts it to good use. IMA reduces the work required by the petrol engine while providing you with more lively acceleration.
The IMA system is made up of many components, but at its heart is the low-friction 1.3 litre i-VTEC engine.
If concept cars were now a reality? The Insight brings those dreams one step closer as the latest addition to Honda's hybrid family. The Honda Insight is the pinnacle of the evolution of Honda hybrid technology.
Known as Integrated Motor Assist (IMA), Honda's hybrid technology is made up of multiple components that all play the same game – provide a winning performance that is ecologically sound.
The 1.3 litre i-VTEC engine acts as the main power source. It is coupled with a 10 kilowatt, ultra-thin electric motor, which adds power while generating electricity on its own. This stunning powertrain is rounded off with a lightweight, compact battery and a Continuously Variable Transmission (CVT) to provide you with responsive acceleration in the city and confidence-inspiring performance on the highway.
Who said games were just for kids? Now it's the driver's turn to have some fun. Take your driving to the next level with Honda's Eco Assist. Part system, part game, Eco Assist is designed to show you how fuel efficiently you're driving, while encouraging you to be good!
It's the dashboard that's your key to winning. You'll notice the digital speedometer change colours as you drive. Green means you're being good, and blue means you could be doing better. It gives you live feedback on how you're driving as you're driving.
And when you're done, Eco Assist will let you know how you're going with your overall, long-term, fuel-efficient driving, giving you an Eco score that hopefully you'll be proud of.
The most important parts of the Eco Assist system are right in front of your eyes; there really was no better place to put them. There are a couple of things you will notice. First up, the colour of the digital speedometer changes as you drive. No, it's not letting you know its mood, but rather giving you feedback on how economically you're driving.
When it turns a nice shade of dark blue, it means your driving isn't so nice at all; you're consuming excess fuel with the way you're driving.
When it turns light blue, you're doing alright. Not great, just alright. You're consuming a relatively normal amount of fuel as you drive.
When the lights are green, keep doing what you're doing. You're driving with fuel efficiency in mind.
Using ECON Mode helps to keep you in the green by optimising certain settings, such as the air conditioning, for more economical driving.
When you lift the hatch, you'll be surprised that such a generous cargo space can fit in a car this size. But 408 litres of boot space is just the beginning. Fold flat the rear seats and create even more storage space – 584 litres to be exact. And for those special items, there's a concealed compartment beneath the floor. It's the boot that keeps on giving.
Sitting perfectly in your line of vision is the Insight's Dual Zone dashboard. It's clear the designers put a lot of thought into this dash. It's been split in two: on the top you have the digital speedometer with the Multi-Information Display below. It's everything you need, right in front of your eyes.
The Insight goes beyond aesthetics to deliver a hybrid that is not only economical, but looks good too. A seriously sleek and cutting-edge design means that no matter the viewing angle, you're instantly attracted to the Insight.
As pleasing as the Insight's exterior is, there are always brains behind the beauty. Extra boot space? You got it. The split-level rear window brings a sporty edge while helping to enhance rearward visibility. The aerodynamic lines let the Insight slip easily through the air, helping with fuel efficiency. A distinctive front grille blends seamlessly into the headlight clusters and, at the same time, maximises airflow.
Translucent and tough, it politely bounces us off other cars upon impact and cushions everyone with a gentle hug. Sadly, this isn't the case… yet. In the meantime, we've employed an array of safety features for the Honda Insight with one thing in mind – be the bubble.
The Honda Insight has been rated one of Australia's safest cars, having achieved the maximum 5-star rating in independent crash testing from ANCAP. The Insight is a shining example of Honda's commitment to overall vehicle safety, complementing Honda's long-standing in-house safety testing which seeks to improve real world safety.
The Insight is equipped with a comprehensive set of 6 airbags as standard. Upfront airbags protect the driver and passenger in more ways than one. Not only do they provide cushioning in the event of a collision, they're also designed to minimise any injury that could be caused by the airbags themselves. Full-length curtain airbags round off the Insight's impressive airbag package.

Footpath floods despite many complaints
7:00pm Monday 15th October 2012 in News
A WOMAN from Witney has been complaining to council chiefs about flooding along a path near her home for the last 18 years.
Jean Spence, 89, has been regularly speaking to Oxfordshire County Council about a footpath between Moor Avenue and Woodford Way.
It is the main route between her home in Dark Lane and the town centre, but heavy rain makes the path flood and become impassable.
She said: "For many, many years – 18 or more – I have been complaining about the state of the path.
"When it rained heavily last month part of the lane was very deep in water. I have a walking stick and it is the only route into the town apart from a long way around, which is difficult because of my age."
Oxfordshire County Council spokesman Martin Crabtree said: "A member of staff has walked the entire length but not found any safety defects. "We did carry out some work earlier in the year to try to solve problems with standing water. "Our drainage team has been made aware of more recent concerns regarding water on the path."

An extraordinary vote by a House committee on Wednesday found Attorney General Eric Holder in contempt of Congress in a drama-dripping showdown that now includes a presidential assertion of executive privilege.
Voting 23-17 on a straight party-line vote, the Republican-controlled House Oversight and Government Reform Committee approved the citation against Holder, just hours after the Obama administration claimed executive privilege over documents sought by the committee, effectively shielding them.
The committee's action now goes to the full House, where Republicans enjoy a comfortable majority. The citation is the first-ever for a U.S. Attorney General, although other executive branch officials have been cited for contempt of Congress - most recently in 2008, when Bush administration officials Harriet Miers and Joshua Bolten were cited.
Sen. Chuck Grassley of Iowa, the top Republican on the Senate Judiciary Committee, said the citation would not need Senate approval. It would be forwarded to the U.S. attorney for the District of Columbia for investigation and considered as a potential misdemeanor that could include jail time of up to a year, Grassley said.
Holder has been under fire over the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco and Firearms' "Fast and Furious" program, a botched gun-trafficking investigation.
Under the operation, federal agents allowed illegal guns sales to proceed in the hopes of tracking arms shipments to Mexican drug cartels. However, federal agents lost track of a large number of the weapons included in the operation and some were subsequently tied to the killing of a U.S. Border Patrol agent.
The House panel has been pressing Holder for months for access to the documents about the program, but Holder has said he is legally unable to provide such access because of ongoing investigations.
Republicans complain Holder is stonewalling Congress, providing only about 7,000 pages out of a total of up to 140,000. Democrats say the GOP is only playing election-year politics and has no real interest in resolving the standoff. They also claim that the Bush administration made similar claims of executive privilege to shield documents from congressional oversight.
Democrats on the House committee on Wednesday attempted unsuccessfully to halt the contempt vote until similar programs under Republicans were sufficiently investigated.
The committee's top Democrat, Rep. Elijah Cummings of Maryland, said Holder has offered to brief the committee on the documents that are being withheld and to provide descriptions of them. Cummings also said Holder is trying to protect the department's traditions, not himself personally.
"I don't think he's trying to hide a damn thing," Cummings said.
Holder himself did not appear at Wednesday's hearing, but in a heated meeting of the Senate Judiciary Committee last week, he rejected Republican calls for him to resign, noting that he had investigated and ended tactics used in the "Fast and Furious" program that actually began under the Bush administration.
The Obama administration notified the committee shortly before it convened Wednesday morning that it is shielding the Justice Document documents from the Republican-ruled panel.
Deputy Attorney General James Cole wrote committee chairman Darrell Issa, R-Calif., shortly before the committee's morning meeting to assert the claim.
"We regret that we have arrived at this point, after the many steps we have taken to address the committee's concerns and to accommodate the committee's legitimate oversight interests regarding Operation Fast and Furious," Cole wrote.
He added, "Although we are deeply disappointed that the committee appears intent on proceeding with a contempt vote, the department remains willing to work with the Committee to reach a mutually satisfactory resolution of the outstanding issues."
Holder met Tuesday night with Issa and Grassley in a last-ditch attempt to avoid Wednesday's vote. A livid Grassley told reporters Wednesday morning that Holder came to the meeting empty-handed and merely offered to brief congressman about the documents in exchange for the citation vote being canceled.
Grassley said Obama's assertion of executive privilege "is itself evidence of the attorney general's contempt of the congressional oversight process."
"Never once has the Justice Department even suggested that the documents would be subject to executive privilege," Grassley said. "This is gamesmanship. If this were a serious claim, they would have and should have raised it last night."
