Though Lora is in the middle of finals, we did find some time last night to talk about the (mostly) non-emotional parts of the bedroom situation. The way I feel right now…I feel better about some things, and deeply upset by others.
The upsetting part is that Lora absolutely does not want to switch rooms. She has a lot of really good reasons-reasons that I totally understand and respect-for feeling strongly against moving. And beyond whatever her reasons are, part of what this situation comes down to is that it wouldn't be right for me to force Lora to move because I'm unhappy – not when it would make her feel like her feelings are being treated as less important than mine. And if I tried to force her to move, I would be treating her feelings as less important to mine, and that wouldn't be caring or healthy for any of us.
Before I go on, I would just like to take a moment to say that I am utterly furious with myself for not taking care of this back in June. When Lora and Jon moved in, we COULD have thought this through more carefully and headed this situation off before it happened. We all felt iffy to some degree about the way we set up the rooms, and it would have been far better to take that iffy feeling and fix it then, instead of waiting to see if it would go away.
Hindsight, you are an utter bitch, and I really hate you right now. Even if this is making a great learning experience for the future, right now, it feels completely horrible and hopeless, and I hate it. I hate that Lora and I are having conflicting needs about this. I hate that we could have avoided the whole fucking situation in the first place, if only we've have done a bit more work at the outset. I hate that it may well end up that there is no way to make the bedroom situation feel OK in our current apartment, so then we'd have to move – because there aren't many things that I hate more than moving.
I am not good with moving. I make wherever I live into my home, my sanctuary, my safe place. I have relationships with my homes. They mean a lot more to me than walls that hold my stuff, and leaving a home is always hard. Going into a new home, and getting to know it…there are fun and exciting parts of it. But it's always a lot hard work, as well as time that gets invested. Time to learn what creaks and groans are normal. Time to see how much noise from the outside will leak in at night. Time to get used to a new pathway to walk to the bathroom, in the middle of the night, when half awake. Time for the cats to find a rotating roster of places to hang out & claim their own. Time to figure out paint colors, buy the paint and do the painting. Time to see if all the furniture does fit, and if it doesn't, what needs to be tossed and what new things will work well. And also all the money do to those furniture and painting things.
It feels like so much effort to have to go through over something that I wish I could just get over and feel fine about.
This is one of those instances where poly is really hard – especially the kind that involves a grouping larger than a duo living together full-time. It could be easy to fall into the trap of being angry at the people instead of the situation. I'm not angry at Lora; though I will say that the part of me that is just hurting over this and wants the hurting to stop likes the idea of having an easy target to point my fingers at and blame; you know, someone who isn't me. Or Jonathan. But the reality is that when we made the decisions about how we were going to structure the bedrooms, we all agreed to make Lora's private room the communal bedroom. I had misgivings about that at the time, but I decided, of my own free will, to give it a try. I think that one thing that would have been really helpful would have been to have a talk about what it would mean if we did need to change the rooms up later – if I'd known then that Lora would have an extremely hard time changing the rooms, it's entirely possible that we'd have decided that it was worth it to redo the spare bedroom immediately. And that's assuming that Lora would have known how much it would have bothered her then – there's a lot of variables in this situation that it would have been impossible to predict in June. And if I couldn't predict how unhappy I'd be about it now, it's would be unfair to expect Lora to have known how she'd feel about changing the rooms around, if we would have thought to have that conversation.
We did the best that we could. We thought we'd all be comfortable with what we chose. I initially felt a lot more comfortable with it. Now that that's changed, it sucks that the best solution for me would be that we make the other bedroom Lora's space so that the communal bedroom would be more communal, and that Lora is just as unhappy with the idea of making that change as I am about not making that change.
Do I wish she was OK with it and willing to move? Yes. It would make things so much easier.
Do I wish that I was OK with things the way there were? Yes. It would make things so much easier.
Though I'm going to continue to sit here and stew in anger and frustration at the situation we're in (because so far, I haven't been able to think myself past that), I can at least list off the positives from the conversation that I had with Lora about the bedrooms. Maybe if I keep looking at them, they'll start matter enough to me that I'll feel better.
For Lora, other than the fact that she 100% doesn't want to move bedrooms, the sky's the limit (or rather, what our budget can handle is the limit). We are going to repaint both bedrooms. We're going to take a good look at the furniture that we have, and see if we really need it all and/or if some of it should be replaced by pieces that will make a better use of our space. We're going to change the art (the art that is painful to me is going to get completely packed up for now, and stored at the top of a closet. Maybe in a few years, I'll be able to look at it and see the good memories more and the bitterness at how things ended less). We're going to move our personal things around so that the rooms do feel more shared. And we're going to all spend time socializing in the communal bedroom together. The point isn't necessarily to make the rooms both feel like all of our time is split 50/50 exactly between them (and that all of our stuff is split exactly 50/50 between them). Rather, it's to redo the non-communal bedroom in a way so that it no longer feels poisoned with those old memories for me, and is also a place where Lora also feels comfortable (and like it's not all mine), so that our time/stuff/emotional are split more evenly between rooms. Exact equality isn't necessary (or even possible in the real world) – but all of us feeling some level of comfort in both bedrooms is, I think, a good goal.
Speaking of the way things feel, the last thing, which is one of the most important things (and is one of the things that Lora needs to think about further, and really worries me) is that currently, the way things work is that when we all sleep together, we sleep in the communal room. When Jon & I sleep together, we sleep in the other bedroom. When Lora and Jon sleep together, they sleep in the communal room. That is a really big part of why the communal room feels like their room to me. When I shared this with Lora, she totally understood, but had some reservations about sleeping in the other bedroom. The only reservation that she specifically voiced was that she's laid on that bed before, and the mattress is really uncomfortable for her. If that's the only issue, then it's an easy fix. The mattress that we have on the biggest bed is very comfortable to all of us, and comes in all sizes. So we could easily buy the full-sized version of that mattress. That would be worth the money spent.
If there are reasons beyond that…then I don't know what I'd do. If Lora's private room is going to be the communal bedroom, and she'd also feel uncomfortable spending some amount of time in the other bedroom, then I think there's only be two other options. One would be to move to a new apartment, one that either would have a small room that could be a separate private space for her, or to make her private room be the non-communal bedroom, if the spaces we could find would only allow for that (I could add a third option, which would be to get rid of the full-sized bed in the non-communal bedroom, and buy a king, so that both bedrooms would be communal bedrooms. We could do that, but finding apartments in our price range that have two bedrooms large enough to fit king-sized beds may be beyond our abilities – though I guess we shouldn't count it out).
The other option would be for us to all stop sleeping together, and have Jon sleep with only one of us at a time, so that it wouldn't be necessary for there to be a communal room for all of us to feel comfortable in. Lora and I would each have our own bedrooms, and Jon would be equally as welcome in both of them (That assumes that our redecorating of the bedroom that used to be only mine was successful enough that the room no longer held such bad feelings for me. I won't know how well that works until we've done it and I've given it some time).
I don't know how I feel about getting rid of having a communal room, beyond feeling that it would hurt Jonathan the most. It means a lot to him that we all sleep together some of the time, and I can understand that. If I were in his shoes, I would hope that sometimes I could sleep with both of my loves, instead of always feeling that I had to choose one or the other.
For myself, I'm used to sleeping with people that I'm not romantically attached to (whenever my friends sleep over, we always share my bed), so sleeping with him and Lora doesn't feel any differently than that. If we no longer had communal sleep nights, then Lora and I would each sleep with Jonathan less often, and that would be hard and upsetting. Would it be harder and more upsetting than continuing to try to make the communal bedroom work? The only way to know for sure is to try it, if nothing else has worked.
And knowing that nothing else will work is going to take time. We've all acknowledged that this isn't a situation where we can do A, B, and C and everything will be fine. There are a lot of emotional triggers buried in this mess, and it's impossible to know how they're playing off of each other, and what will lay them to rest. We're going to have to experiment a bit and move furniture/things around, until we find a configuration that feels good for all of us. If we find a configuration that feels good to all of us.
I wish I could end this on a more hopeful note, but all I feel right now is sadness and frustration that I can't find a way to feel better about it myself, and that we're having a conflict that we probably could have avoided if we'd thought things through a little better at the beginning. Hopefully, once we start making progress on this, I'll be able to start saying "live and learn" instead of "I hate this, I hate this, I hate this".

Arab League deal not stopping killing in Syria
One week after Syria agreed to a plan by the Arab League under which it promised to pull its military from restive cities, twelve more civilians are reported to have been killed in Syria by government security forces, according to human rights observers. The deaths are said to have occurred in the capital Damascus, the southern Deraa region, Homs in the centre, and also in eastern Syria. Twelve civilian and eight soldiers' deaths were reported on Tuesday. The Arab League plan included agreement by Damascus to set political prisoners free and start talks with the opposition, which wants to remove President Bashar al-Assad and introduce more democratic freedoms. In the Egyptian capital, Cairo, protesters accused a visiting Syrian delegation — ostensibly four members of the Syrian opposition — of working covertly for the Assad government. The delegation was in Egypt, to meet Arab League chief, Nabil Elaraby, as the regional body readies for an emergency meeting this Saturday to discuss the continued crackdown on protest in Syria. One of the protesters said they believed that the internal opposition negotiating with the regime was thereby legitimising it, while blood continues to be shed. He said: "The protesters demand that the case of Syria be sent to the United Nations, that international protection be given and a no-fly zone set up." Events in Syria are difficult to verify independently because the government has barred most foreign journalists. Syrian activists put the number of civilians killed in the conflict above 4,000.

WVH Power Rankings: Week 9
- Posted by Drew Epperley
- On May 25, 2010
- 3 Comments
- 2010 Power Rankings, 2010 Week 9
For the first week this season a lot of the rankings really stayed the same from the previous week. The reasons being there wasn't as many games this week and for the most part we really know now who is good and who isn't at this point in the season.
For me right now its a four team race, I'm even throwing RSL and San Jose into the mix based off their stellar play as of late. I don't know exactly how each would fare against Columbus or LA right yet but I do think they are worth mentioning in the discussion with them. Houston, Colorado, New York and Toronto are all a step behind them while everyone else is a jumbled mess until you get to Philadelphia and D.C. United. Those two sides are bad though D.C. may be the absolute worst team I've seen in years.
Feel free to leave your thoughts and comments on the rankings in the comments section below.
|Record (W-L-T)
|1 (1)
|8-0-2 26 pts.
|Seriously, this is how the Galaxy will play until Buddle and Donovan return from South Africa. That's bad news for everyone else.
|2 (2)
|6-0-2 20 pts.
|Two straight road wins and still undefeated. Facing the Galaxy at home this weekend will be epic, or so we all hope.
|3 (3)
|5-3-1 16 pts.
|Big time road win, especially when they let Chivas come back late. Got to say this club will likely be on a roll for a few weeks here.
|4 (4)
|5-2-1 16 pts.
|Four straight shutouts, how did this club go from dead in the water to contender? I'm close to saying they're playing the best soccer in the league right now.
|5 (5)
|4-3-1 13 pts.
|No game this week so I'm not touching them.
|6 (7)
|5-4-1 15 pts.
|A visit from D.C. is always welcome but Dominic Kinnear has to be happy with getting Joseph Ngwenya back on his roster.
|7 (8)
|4-4-1 13 pts.
|Its not going to be pretty but Preki is finding ways to get his club to win now. Just like with Chivas in the past, if this bunch can find ways to score they will be awfully dangerous.
|8 (6)
|5-4-0 15 pts.
|Without Joel Lindpere in the midfield this club looks an awful lot like last year's side.
|9 (9)
|3-4-3 12 pts.
|Seattle is just lucky they didn't look terrible in the loss to San Jose. But they gotta do something about Freddie Ljungberg's constant complaining with the officials.
|10 (12)
|2-4-2 9 pts.
|No game for the Fire this past week. I wonder if Carlos de los Cobos has figured out how to use Brian McBride and Collins John yet.
|11 (10)
|2-4-2 9 pts.
|Another team that didn't look horrible this week despite losing. Still six-game winless streak isn't pretty. They just have to be thankful there is a lot of mess below them.
|12 (13)
|3-6-1 10 pts.
|They nearly came back but blew a chance at one point against RSL. They have to learn ways to not shoot themselves in the foot each week.
|13 (11)
|2-2-5 11 pts.
|Just an absolute ugly performance against LA.
|14 (14)
|2-6-2 8 pts.
|Shalrie Joseph making an unexpected return really will lift this side up the rankings in the coming weeks.
|15 (15)
|1-5-1 4 pts.
|No game, no movement. Too bad the momentum from the Dallas game has already passed.
|16 (16)
|1-8-0 3 pts.
|Yup, nearly a third of the way through to the 3rd pick of the 2011 MLS SuperDraft.

I've mentioned this here before, but I can't think of many examples of trans characters in fiction, and it's especially uncommon to find times when a trans character's storyline isn't centered around the process of physical transition or coming out (either voluntarily or not). While I'm thrilled by any chance to see respectfully portrayed trans characters in popular media, I do wish it was more common to see someone whose gender identity and history serves as more of a footnote than a defining characteristic.
It was a welcome surprise to come across such a character in Anna North's America Pacifica. It's a good book and a quick read; I'd certainly recommend it even without this particular character in it. I found it similar in feel to Margaret Atwood's Oryx and Crake, but with a much tighter focus on one character and her objectives. America Pacifica is a small island somewhere off of the western coast of the US that is one of the few inhabitable places on Earth after the onset of an ice age. Darcy, the main character, spends most of the novel trying to investigate and understand her mother's sudden disappearance, and this leads her to a number of people who have a connection either to her mother or to the events on the west coast that shaped the early days of America Pacifica.
Although she doesn't know it at first, Darcy eventually realizes one of the people she's in contact with (I'm specifically avoiding using his name here) is trans. He isn't originally forthcoming with his history, but no one Darcy speaks to is eager to talk about the past and his evasion isn't seen as any worse or different than this general reluctance. He does mention surgery and other physical changes, but the author doesn't dwell on the details or sensationalize them. His trans identity isn't even the most important part of who he is! It's just… not a big deal.
And that's what I don't think I've seen before. There's something amazing about coming across a trans character who isn't the focus of attention, whose gender isn't up for debate or much discussion at all, who isn't a joke or a specimen for everyone else to dissect. It's hard to find fictional representations of trans or gender-variant folks that I want to read; I'm happy to come across anything that's written respectfully and well, and I am all for trans narratives where coming out, transition, or similar themes are the focus. But it's just as important to me to see trans characters and experiences normalized to the extent that they (or at least their history) don't always have to be in the foreground.

Dedicated to his students' success, Matt Smith is a teacher at MANHATTAN English Language Studio (our partner school) who strongly believes in motivating his students to strive to improve, while enjoying the learning process. Read on to find out more about his experience (15 years!) and what he bases his teaching on.
1. Tell us two interesting or unusual things about you
Fun fact 1: I am able to move my ears independently. (We highly recommend asking Matt to show you when you meet him in person!)
Fun fact 2: I have been travelling and living in Asia for nearly 10 years.
2. What kinds of activities do you use in your lessons?
Everyone has a different approach to learning. Each student deserves to have the lesson be catered to his or her particular learning process. I like to focus part of the lesson on learning the foundation of a part of speech or arithmetic and reinforcing it by applying it to the students' personal interests. I find students really enjoy memory-matching games. With the more active students, I tend to do more physical activities such as hopping or walking in an entertaining manner to the appropriate flash card.
3. What do you most enjoy about teaching?
Seeing the light go on in my students' eyes. We all deal with different challenges; some of us enjoy art while others excel in mathematics. The best part of teaching is seeing a student work towards overcoming an obstacle and being proud of the effort they put forth to accomplish what they set out to do.
4. What teaching experience do you have?
I have been a teacher for over 15 years; the last 7 were spent teaching all ages in Taiwan. I got involved in teaching after I was a swim coach for four years and enjoyed coaching kids.
5. Do you follow a particular teaching style?
I feel it is important to adapt to each student's personal needs. My underlying philosophy is to motivate the student to strive to improve while enjoying the process.

Most real estate searching undertaken by people interested in having a primary or second home in Puerto Vallarta (or Nayarit), tends to center around the size of the home, number of bedrooms, the neighborhood, and of course, the price. When something is finally found that fulfills the criteria, few, unfortunately, bother to include an investigation regarding how the homeowner's association (HOA) functions. But they should.
They don't because many people are not familiar with what a HOA is and what its responsibilities may entail. The single-family dwelling is still the most common form of homeownership in the U.S. and Canada, where HOAs are not, in most cases, necessary. But in Vallarta the condo is king and the preferred form of secondary home or vacation ownership.
Why? They are easy to take care of, to lock-up and leave during the summers, maintenance fees are less, matter fact the overall cost is usually much less. But the other side of condo living is you are now sharing your home, or at least your common areas and perhaps a wall, floor and/or ceiling, with others. There needs to be a system in place to ensure common areas are well maintained and paid for, that everyone respects the rules in place and the privacy of the other owners. The mechanism for this is the homeowner's association.
Before anyone makes an offer on a property it very much would be worth their while to investigate the HOA, to ensure the condominium project is being run efficiently, properly, and in compliance with state condo laws. If there are problems, it's better to find out beforehand rather than later on. Unfortunately, the information isn't always easy to come by. The listing real estate agent can assist with this by organizing a meeting with the property manager or administrator, and perhaps one of the board members may be available to talk to you.
Perhaps I should have prefaced this by saying there are always going to be some problems going on within the HOA - it is the nature of the beast. So don't go looking for a perfect scenario. What you mostly want to do is confirm ahead of time what you are getting involved with and then decide if you're okay with it.
Here's some sample questions you could consider asking:
- Is there a good administrative system in place? Is there a manager or administration company you can talk to about the building?
- You should ask to see a copy of the property by-laws (regimen de condominios) to better understand what the rules are for owners.
- Is there a board and do they meet regularly, taking minutes of the meetings?
- How are common expenses billed and charged?
- Is the electricity billed separately for each unit?
- How are fees billed (annually, quarterly, monthly), and is everyone paying their fees regularly?
- Are there any problems/disagreements or even legal issues internally or with the past developer?
You can get a pretty good idea of how well the HOA is being managed by just walking around the property and checking how well everything is being maintained. Poor maintenance and condition of the building probably means poor management and a weak board and HOA.
Garry Musgrave has written a couple of books about condominium HOAs in Jalisco and about condominium law, and he writes, "Much of the problem comes from unsubstantiated opinions or maintaining of the status quo. Often, people having experience with a condo in Canada or the U.S. will try to apply this to a Mexican condo — unfortunately, they don't operate the same way! Some early condos made mistakes when they were set-up, and these have been continued by new condos copying them! Eventually, poor (and often, illegal) practices became the standards on which new condominium administrations are based. The real problem is that detailed and accurate information has not been available to you."
Garry has written book about condominium HOAs you can purchase on Amazon.com. It makes a very good guide for anyone involved with HOAs, and set you in the right direction for properly setting up your condo regimen.
And what if you have already bought and now discover there are problems with your HOA? Well, remember, as I wrote above, there will always be some problems, what's important is the severity of the problems. First, you should educate yourself about what best policies are for the operation of a HOA. Ask questions, both to the administrator and board, but perhaps other people at other developments who have ample experience in the operation of HOAs.
Secondly, consider getting involved yourself by serving on the board. The worst guy at the annual general assembly is usually the one who loves to complain but then never bothers to help out by serving on the board. It's my opinion that if you haven't served, you really don't deserve to complain much. If you want something to be done, then perhaps you have to do it yourself by getting involved.
Other points to keep in mind:
- If you have a weak administrator, you need to have a strong board. But that will mean board members putting in a lot more time than they may want to, or should. It can also lead to board members having too much control. Prime candidates for this are successful retired corporate types who are used to running their own company, but don't have the company anymore. So they take over the HOA!
- If you have a strong administrator you'll have to pay more, but it will make the job of the board much easier. In my opinion this is how it should be done, with the board just providing direction and oversight. Unfortunately, for small projects, this often is challenging.
- Checks and balances. You have to have systems in place to ensure that the administrator, management and board are doing their jobs properly. The administrator and accountant shouldn't work for the same firm - as they need to audit one another.
- Do all you can to avoid lawsuits. Usually the only one's to win are the lawyers. People can get very hot-headed, for some reason, when it comes to HOAs. It's a little like road-rage, but now inside the condominium structure. Owners have to understand that they have no choice, they are neighbors and are stuck living near and with one another. So the nicer you can be to each other, the higher the degree of success and compliance you'll have regarding HOA matters.
- A poorly run HOA can take away from the pleasure of owning, put some owners against others. Your best best is to get a great administrator who can keep people in line and ensure that day-to-day operations are done correctly.

2016 Toyota Prius Versus Upcoming Tesla Model 3
If the VW emissions folly signals that gas engine technology has peaked, Toyota's re-engineered 2016 Prius might signal the same for hybrids. Sure, the incremental gain in fuel economy and more-than-incremental gain in handling bespeak devout engineering effort, but they don't approach the feverish pace of improvement in the EV camp.
Tesla sees a doubling of battery energy density every 10 years. Has the Prius doubled anything in the last decade? No. The 2016 Prius has boosted fuel economy by 21 percent over the 2006 model if you look strictly at the latest 56 mpg "Eco" version. Otherwise, the gain is 13 percent. Toyota's Hybrid Synergy Drive is a terrific, reliable setup. But compared with the pace at Tesla, the Prius is frozen in time, and is therefore a sitting duck. This poster child for hybrids, the first one to hit the elusive tipping point, might make the loudest thud in next few years as EVs hit a tipping point of their own with Model 3.
Curb appeal, or curbed appeal?
"We forgot style." That's the punchline of a Toyota Venza ad. It comes when a guy sporting white socks and Birkenstocks realizes his Subaru is homely next to the Venza, and tells his frumpy wife that they blew it. With that in mind, we turn to the new Prius. And then we quickly turn AWAY from the new Prius. Green cars have lost their license to be ungainly. Tesla has revoked it for all. So this new Prius is in violation as soon as it backs out of your garage. The car with the highest BF in automotive history seems complacently homely. What's BF? Birkenstock Factor.
Burning gas moves to back burner
Toyota is rightly attempting to shift the focus to fun, as cheapish gas shuffles buyer priorities. At the official launch, fuel economy never made it onstage. Imagine that! The accompanying press release barely mentions the subject. It's all about the allegedly beautiful styling and the thrill of driving the new Prius. And yes, this new Prius does handle far better, according to early reviews. The problem is, Model 3 is very likely to offer far stronger sex appeal and driving dynamics. True, we'll all be passengers in automated cars eventually, but driving still matters for a while.
Price canyon is narrowing fast
You want a Tesla, but you drive a Prius for 70% less money? Makes sense. But will it make sense when the delta is zero? The top-drawer Prius with top-drawer tech packages will push you into the low $30s, overlapping the bottom-end Model 3 when you include tax incentives. Another thing: Both cars will attract people with plenty of dough, who simply don't want to blow it on a six-figure car. So even if Model 3's initial run tends toward the high end of the spectrum, around $50k, even that could poach would-be Prius buyers who can justify the ROI of a Tesla, given the OTA updates and zero fuel consumption and ironclad resale value.
Pedigree no longer Toyota's advantage
Tesla's image could not possibly get better. It's a renegade company that challenges the law on multiple fronts, extends a middle finger to car pocket-picking car dealers and gas stations, skips normal advertising, takes chances with vanguard technology, kicks everyone's buttocks in drag races and has a bona fide rocket engineer in charge. He uses foul language sometimes, too. Young people swoon. Toyota's image is super value with super reliability. Nice! Not quite rocket engineer nice, but nice. The Prius's image in particular has indeed matured from an obnoxious accessory for liberals to a smart vehicle for smart people of all stripes. But the BF factor remains high. So too does the parental factor. Young readers here might agree that the Prius in the driveway even smells like parents. Not cool. Social media bear this out.
It might not happen next year, but by 2020, the avant-garde car of Y2k will have to hand the torch to the Mirai — its dubious styling inspiration — and hope for the best. Hybrids will have run their course.

I see the upcoming Prius as the car that Toyota thinks people(or current Prius drives) want but they did not bother to check and see if that is true or not.
Toyota sabotaged EVs with the plug-in version and continue with this thing.
Toyota may have a Rude awakening
Not really.
It still utilises electric drive technology, battery technology, aerodynamics.
It has also improved in almost every one of these areas with every generation and has been doing so long before long range EV's were a viable proposition for the masses.
It's horses for courses, but the car that does what you need it to do with the least impact on the planet while doing it.
The least impact? My 100% renewable energy powered EV does it with less impact.
I see. But not every EV owner powers his EV with 100% renewable energy. I am a EV owner myself
Speaking as somebody who loves Tesla, you're talking about a very successful, profitable car, built by the world's #1 car company (or close to it): the Toyota Prius.
And saying it doesn't stack up to a car that doesn't even exist, at a rumored price point, from a company who can't turn a profit selling a better version of this car at double or more the price.
Just trying to inject some reality here…
So true, totally agree; however, the best point the article makes is mentioning the fuel economy wall the hybrid platform has reached. To go any further realistically requires a plug or….. a fuel cell. Toyota, it appears, has chosen the latter.
True. I'm surprised we haven't seen the hybrid drive go into more Toyota models. I drove a Highlander hybrid the other day and it's just as nice as a Prius for all the same reasons.
I agree with Musk in theory when he says the hybrid combines the worst of both worlds, however Toyota has shown that the Prius can last incredibly long with great battery life, easier wear on the ICE components, and so on.
As for Toyota's fuel cell dreams, who knows. Japan could force it to work there, but I can't see it beating out a BEV in the long run… the infrastructure alone.
Oh no!! Another Warren, and he test drove an SUV. 🙁
Well, you can look at it this way also: My wife has a Prius and it's starting to get old enough that she is going to replace it in the next year or two. She has flat out said that good MPG is no longer "good enough" and that now her base requirement is either a 50 mile+ PHEV or a 200 mile+ BEV. The new Prius is neither so it's unlikely that she will get a new one. With every new product that Toyota shows they are starting to look more and more like Blackberry….
"from a company who can't turn a profit selling a better version of this car at double or more the price."
I thought it was pretty well established that Tesla is making significant marginal profit on the Model S.
The overall money burn is R&D on the Model X and now Model 3, I thought.
R&D costs have to be built into the cost of production, as the next iteration on that model will need to be replaced in 4-6 years. They're a fixed cost, but they can't be spread infinitely thin.
Some car companies can keep a model in production for a decade (think Bentley continental or land rover defender or any work van), but very few have that type of lasting power, especially in the primary consumer market.
To stay in the game means that you have to continually develop the replacement for the current model. if Tesla hasn't already started the replacement for the Model S, then they're going to be behind the 8 ball when the competition gets it together.
Once you spread development cost over their production run none of Tesla cars have made a single dime. Car business is capital intensive, those capex will never subside.
That is true only of the Tesla Roadster. The Model S make a healthy gross profit margin, larger than the industry average for automobiles.
If Tesla wasn't spending huge wodges of money on expanding its production capacity by 40-45% every year, and also spending lots of money on other projects (such as building out Gigafactory 1), then it certainly would be showing a healthy positive annual cash flow.
Warren I bet you hate Tesla's as they are turning a 27% profit on the S.
The only reason it isn't making a profit is it puts the money into growing the company and only a hater would ignore that.
Note investors are very happy and shorters are PO'd.
Nor do you know there isn't a model 3 yet as likely they have already been made for testing and designing the equipment for building them.
Just like GM or do you think they are starting from scratch and producing the Bolt in 18 months?
Hybrids have not run their course as the article suggests. In fact, I predict most will eventually morph into PHEV. And PHEVs will be more cost effective than pure BEVs for a while still, and I think we are still 10 or 15 years away from having the charging infrastructure needed to support more BEVs.
I agree with you for slightly different reasons. I talked to a Big-Wig at Ford and he said that hybrids were really the only way they could meet the upcoming efficiency standards in the US and EU. At least Ford doesn't see the future as a rapid transition to EVs. They seem to see hybrids as a necessary evil.
Toyota might earn an 8% net margin on a PHEV, before they gave up on a 7% net margin for a hybrid. The point is PHEVs are improving to be the less "profit-effective" vehicles, and that is still a big problem to overcome.
This is where we can begin imputing <$10 carbon prices, NOx prices, etc. as very low, and more effective at changing manufacturing decisions, right at the margin.
What's with the comparison to a car that does not exist and will not exist for two years?
Because both of them will in the near future.
So sad for Toyota. They pioneered the hybrid cars technology with Prius but didn't move further significantly. Prius plug-in with 10-15 miles of electric range is ridiculous. Now Toyota entered to the hydrogen technology "swamp" instead of going full electric. I still have the Prius 2005 that will be replaced with Model 3 as soon as possible.
Its not that the ice has peaked its just that the missing link for the far superior electric engine, being utilized for personal transportation now has reliable, powerful, long lasting batteries that have come into flower. When they begin to fruit, and the Tesla is an early example of that fruit, the first of those vehicular products using them, the old ice will seem so yesterday as to be only a remembered technology.
Of course the changeover will take decades.
Apparently the market agrees with the assessment of Tesla as presented in this article. Stock is up big time today. Probably due to the configuration news on the Model X. Seems that now that Tesla has listened to tuition their plans are coming to fruition.
The student is now the master.
Ash, I don't think fast chargers need to be quite that ubiquitous, but it would be nice! And I am not sure that 80% of the drivers out there wouldn't be satisfied with an electric car that charged at half the "miles per minute" of a gas pump, given they won't be doing it that often and that driving using electricity is so much more fun than most ICE vehicles and cheaper to boot.
Superchargers are at 150 kW charge rates now, so you can get 25 kWh into your S in just 10 minutes. You get around 3.5 miles of driving for each kWh. 90 miles of driving in 10 minutes isn't nearly as fast as a gas pump but if you only road trip every couple months it is probably good enough as it is.
And charging rates are getting faster all the time and they are doing it without using some kind of Franken-plug that people would be uncomfortable using.
I find it strange that the dropping price of batteries hasn't made the Prius battery bigger and bigger (or even for that matter, smaller and smaller). Instead, they've stuck with the same old NiMH batteries that they made in 2001.
Please. The least they could do is find *some* way to improve the drivetrain.
Because the R&D for the Prius drive train was paid off many years ago. The marginal profit on a Prius is probably excellent. The underlying point of the article is that Toyota hasn't made any breakthrough changes to the Prius since its launch, instead relying on incremental improvements. Unfortunately for Toyota, others have already leapfrogged the Prius in almost all aspects (the Leaf and the Volt, both in the same price range, already achieve better efficiency in real world driving patterns).
I was simply stunned when Toyota finally introduced the Prius Plug-in, and it didn't have any longer all-electric range than existing Priuses which had been modified into plug-in hybrids using third-party kits!
As someone already posted upstream, the Prius is turning out to be the Blackberry of HEVs. It was good in its day, but Toyota clearly isn't interested in improving the tech or competing with newer, more robust EVs.
If you look at battery improvements from 2008 (original Roadster 56 KwHr) to 2016 (new pack for roadster 70 KwHr) the improvement has been 25%, or about 3% per year. Unless there is some breakthrough that has alluded scientist in the past 20 years doubling anything in 10 years is impossible, and Model 3 will not happen in 2018 at $35k.
The breakthrough isn't all chemistry but mass production and streamlined raw material sourcing at the new Gigafactory.
10 years ago pack level batteries were in the $550-$650 kWh range. Recently Tesla ihas been making packs in the ballpark of $250 kWh. By 2020 they most likely will have the costs down to $150 kWh at the pack level or even as low as $100 kWh.
I am skeptical, in terms of raw material obviously there is more demand in the future, so prices are likely to go up rather than down. These batteries are made by robots, so at some point there is little to be gained from scaling up manufacturing, particularly in a high cost region with soaring currency.

Just comparing the kWh of the two Tesla models isn't very informative. One is a small two-seater sports car, and the other is a large family sedan. The drop in battery prices and the reduction in battery pack space required, over the same span of time, is much more significant.
Besides, your numbers are off. The Roadster's battery pack was 52.7 kWh, and the top end Model S now has 90 kWh. Comparing the $100k Roadster to the entry level 70 kWh Model S is not an appropriate comparison, especially since a large majority of Model S's have 85 kWh.
When Elon said he expected the battery capacity of the Model S to increase by roughly 5% per year, he was talking about the top end, not the bottom end.
I am comparing the original roadster battery with the new retrofit roadster battery, which occupies the same space, although it is heavier. The 3% number is what I have heard from a few people. The price have dropped faster, but performance is about 3% per year. Remember this is a mature technology developed for laptops manly in the past 20 years.
"I expect more from InsideEVs than re-publishing this content-free diatribe."
When you can't argue logically, resort to personal attacks. Ask Trump.
Can you actually name anyone I attacked personally? That's right, you can't, because I didn't. In fact, I have no idea who wrote the Tesla Mondo article (InsideEVs didn't mention any name(s)). You don't actually seem to know what "personal attack" means.
My comment attacked the article, not whoever wrote it.
In fact, your claiming I resorted to personal attack is itself a personal attack on your side (-:
Never heard of SpaceX ?!? Musk built and fired rockets at 13 years old. He IS one of the best, if not THE best rocket scientist on this planet, maybe of two planets in a decade or two.
He is the CEO of Spacex, not a rocket scientist. There is a huge difference. He has a BS in physics but he is not the tech guy at Spacex, he is the business guy. He made his money with Paypal and a few other ventures. He is a heck of a businessman, but he it no rocket scientist.
Elon Musk says he has educated and trained himself to be a rocket engineer. Considering that he created and sold a video game to a computer magazine at age 12, I for one don't doubt that's true.
Elon isn't the kind of exec who delegates everything and spends all his time sitting behind a desk, despite the fact he's running two hi-tech companies simultaneously. He's a hands-on CEO who likes to get involved in everything. Elon can be criticized for micromanaging and for being a perfectionist, but certainly not for claiming to have engineering skills which he doesn't actually have!
Ziv is exactly right.
I have no beef with Musk, who certainly has a wide science background, formal & informal.
I was not criticizing him in any way, just that bizarro article InsideEVs chose to republish.
He's never claimed to be a rocket scienist, nor does he need to.
Musk is primarily an entrepreneur (the Ashlee vance bio, while not well written, is still worth reading), with wide ranging interests; he was always just as interested in business as in the science/engineering issues, which is absolutely fine.
The term "bona fide rocket scientist" is very specific (my ex-sister-in-law is an actual rocket scientist, BTW), and should not be abused, that's all.
BTW Toyota is already skipping EV for the next zero emission tech which is fuel cell, so I wouldn't underestimate them. After all they pioneered the hybrid tech, which so far has been more successful than EV tech.
They're certainly making up for it by throwing money down the rathole on the Mirai… the modern equivalent of an Edsel. Actually, that's not fair. After all, the Edsel did function as a practical automobile.
That's an unfair comparison- the Edsel had much better style than the Mirai!
I am not sure if the comparison is fair. But I agree with author's point.
If Prius is the "flagship" of the conventional hybrid family of product, then its future is limited.
If Tesla is the "flagship" of EVs, then the future of EVs are very bright.
Despite the fact that LEAF have sold more, Telsa really knows how to make an EV attractive and desirable. That is something neither affordable BEV nor hybrids have been able to accomplish.
BMW i8 is very attractive and it is a hybrid. So is Porsche 918. Prius sells for $25k, only an idiot will compare it with a $90k car that loses money.
i8 and 918 are both PHEV. Calling the just a "hybrid" like Prius is silly…
"Tesla's image could not possibly get better. It's a renegade company that challenges the law on multiple fronts, extends a middle finger to car pocket-picking car dealers and gas stations, skips normal advertising, takes chances with vanguard technology, kicks everyone's buttocks in drag races and has a bona fide rocket engineer in charge. He uses foul language sometimes, too. Young people swoon."
So you are saying Elon is the Donald Trump of the car business…
(standing well back)
"It's going to be compelling"
"It's going to be huuuge"
Comparing people to Trump is the new version of Godwin's law. 🙂
By the time the Model3 finally ships in volume Prius will probably be in the 2019 MY – including a PHEV option between 30-50 miles (much better than the current PHEV from Toyota).
Toyota doesn't really want to make a really good PHEV like the Volt. In fact they will probably continue to limit its power (the 2016 has less system hp than the previous gen but will still match the lackluster acceleration of the previous gen due to weight improvements) and keep its efficiency lower by about 10 mpg compared to its new halo the Mirai.
The Mirai gets only 67 MPGe and isn't particularly speedy either so the Prius can't be allowed to match the Mirai in every performance metric AND be half the price.
No, the Plugin Prius will still have a under 100 hp electric motor that will bore in pure EV mode. So they might give it a 20-30 mile EV range but with 80 hp. This will not be a direct competitor to someone wanting a true EV experience.
However, it will compete with the dozen or so PHEVs that will be available by then that will also have low performance driving dynamics in pure EV mode.
Yeah, the PHEV Hybrids that many of us cheer as 'at least a step in the right direction' might arguably become fodder for the dinner party conversation of "I tested one o' those electric hybrids and they're slow as molasses in electric-only mode". Hard to say how That will play out..
They may be slow in EV mode.. but most of the PHEVs out there (except the Prius PHEV) are actually pretty fast in hybrid mode. Take Ford's Energi cars for example, they will easily outrun a 1st gen Volt (not sure about the 2nd gen) with the ICE running.
I think 95% of buyers of those vehicles probably will leave it in the default mode, which allows the ICE to come on for extra performance.
99% of the cars around the world are slow by your standard. Toyota wants to maximize their profit. They make as much money as all other carmakers combined. Only an ignorant person can underestimate them.
IF Toyota would get over themselves as being the technology leaders, and realise some of us 'Like' the Prius, But just like the plain sister, we desire her hot sibling more! (The coming Model 3!)
Or, Toyota could bump up the Hybrid Synergy Drive with something on the order of 130 kW Motors, and a Turbo 4 gas engine, and give the non-plug Prius a 5 kWh Lithium Battery (so it can use EV mode about 10 to 15 miles, even if you ran out of gas, if the battery was at a good state of charge), but build a plugin version with 12 to 16 kWh for 40 to 60 miles AER!
With the bigger motors and a Battery to back it up, they could deliver even more exciting acceleration, but do it on possibly even less gas! Let's see some Prius beat the Leaf or i3 in the 0 to 60!
The 56 MPG of Eco is without the spare tire. In case of flat tire, the person(s) will be in big trouble.
Yes it has gained 13 % in mileage. Tesla Model S has 89 MPGe and that's for a big 7 Seater fast sedan.
The upcoming Model-3 which may be 4/5 seater and being economy car may boast 120 MPGe and that's a big jump besides using 0 gas. For sure the cabbies will go for it given the 200 mile range and 30,000 chargers already being installed nationwide.
Also those who commute 50 – 100 miles / day and use their vehicle for business, delivery, etc will go for Model-3.
So there is no comparison between Prius Gen-4 and Model-3. However moving to Lithium battery is a big improvement that Toyota has made. So Toy is taking competition seriously.
I'm surprised that this article compares the Model III but not the Bolt, Gen2 Leaf, or Cadillac CT6.
I mean, while we're evaluating cars that don't actually exist.
Perhaps that is because the Bolt is not a serious offering. Its a reaction to Tesla, and nothing else. Its not even a true GM car. All the drivetrain components will be made by LG Chem. I doubt GM will build more than a token number of Bolts.
Tesla is making a serious investment in the Gigafactory to actually build 500,000 Model 3s by 2020. They are serious competition to the Prius. The Leaf would need to be totally redesigned to accommodate a battery big enough to compete with the Model 3. The others you mentioned are hybrids.
What a very, very strange article. Especially when they start comparing a car you can actually buy today to a car for which nobody has even seen s picture… and even claim the unseen car blows away the real car in style!
Much as I love Tesla Motors, I think it's very much counting your chickens before they're hatched to claim a pig in a poke has light-years more style than a car you can actually buy today. Let's wait until we actually have something to look at before we start handing razzies to the new Prius, hmmm?
"What's BF? Birkenstock Factor."
Maybe it's 'cuz I grew up in the sixties, but I think twin-strap sandals are kinda cool. Now, if they were flip-flops… *shudder*
"The top-drawer Prius with top-drawer tech packages will push you into the low $30s, overlapping the bottom-end Model 3 when you include tax incentives."
As industry watchers know, it looks a lot like Tesla's slice of the Federal tax incentive "pie" is gonna run out about the time they start selling the Model ≡. Whoever wrote this article apparently skimped a bit on their fact-checking.
Fed tax credit is probably why GM isn't having wider SparkEV rollout, not because of it being a compliance car. Though they're selling in Korea, Canada, Mexico, more sales in US would be eating into Bolt sales and tax credit, a car that'll return more profit. Poor SparkyV, caught in politics…
Awwwwww you blew it at the very end there. You were doing so well.
I think hybrids will still be around a long time. 99% still commute in ICEs and are unwilling to change. Many still commute in full size SUVs. Hybrids will be a way to move the masses to EV or fuel cell vehicles.
I am interested to know whether this Prius Gen-4 will run on E85 Ethanol. With surging Ethanol production and cheaper E85, it will be nice if we can run our cars on E85.
I am already running my Prius Gen-2 on E50 Ethanol.
Ethanol is a terrible fuel as it is currently produced. Very high carbon footprint and bad side effects on the food supply and eco system. Don't fool yourself that your helping the cause by using Ethanol.
I do not see why comparing a cheap prius to a Tesla. The prius cannot outrun a Volt while the Volt may display 98 MPG on the odometer. Yes these prius owners say their vehicle gets better mileage than the Volt if the Volt is never plugged in for charge. Who would not plug the Volt or any EV for a charge. That's like taking the gas pump away from the prius
Anyone care to share an opinion as to why Toyota didn't opt for a diesel hybrid iso the Atkinson cycle gas engine. Diesel is so much more efficient than even than the Atkinson even.

If you are talked into a tour, make sure the guide has a tour guide license. It's our way of keeping you safe.
Adorable children offer bracelets etc for sale all year round. They should be in school. The clever ones have learned to tell you the money will go for books or shoes. Think child trafficking.
A good rule: if you wouldn't buy it, do it, or consider it at home, don't do it here.
In 2003, Julie bought a two story concrete and wooden building on half of the present property. Still working at being discovered as a best-selling author, she lived upstairs while renting the downstairs to a few adventurous travellers. She called her new home: Caye Casa. In those days, people used a hand drawn ferry to cross to the northern part of the island. The coconut palm trees blocked the view of the reef from the second floor
In 2005, still not discovered, Julie bought the other half of this property where she built two casitas. She decorated them with welcoming thatch covered porches. She bought her first used golf cart – one of a handful on the island. There were no paved roads.
A year later, true to her background in Vermont as a more successful builder/developer than author, Julie tore down the original buildings and moved to one of the casitas. She established an office in the other casita while supervising the construction of the new Caye Casa. Her design reflected that she was seriously infected with the Belize bug.
When it reopened in November 2007, the two casitas were surrounded by four, two bedroom villas and two classic hotel rooms. Although Julie shares ownership with five others, one of her proudest moments occurred when she overheard two local women talking while admiring Caye Casa. One said to the other, "a woman built that."
The palm trees no longer hide the view of the ocean and the reef. The pier was replaced after Hurricane Earl. There is a new bridge, some roads are paved, and there are a few more golf carts around; but, the thatch covered porches continue to welcome adventurous northerners. Caye Casa is still thriving.
Fatally infected by the Belize bug, Julie writes clever emails for the benefit of her sons and grandchildren. She inconspicuously manages the Caye Casa Boutique Hotel.

Mount Kenya is located in central Kenya, the heart of Kenya, about 16.5 kilometres (10.3 mi) south of the equator, around 150 kilometres (93 mi) north-northeast of the capital Nairobi. Mount Kenya is the source of the name of the Republic of Kenya.
Mount Kenya is a stratovolcano created approximately 3 million years after the opening of the East African rift. Before glaciation, it was 7,000 m (23,000 ft) high. It was covered by an ice cap for thousands of years. This has resulted in very eroded slopes and numerous valleys radiating from the centre. There are currently 11 small glaciers. The forested slopes are an important source of water for much of Kenya.
There are several vegetation bands from the base to the summit. The lower slopes are covered by different types of forest. Many alpine species are endemic to Mount Kenya, such as the giant lobelias and senecios and a local subspecies of rock hyrax. An area of 715 km2 (276 sq mi) around the centre of the mountain was designated a Nationa Park and listed as a UNESCO World Heritage Site in 1997. The park receives over 16,000 visitors per year.

This car was at a Seattle area swap meet recently. 68 Chevelle SS with original engine and tach dash
that was sitting outside with no doors or trunk lid since '78. Floors had moss that was 2 inches thick.
I didn't even bother to look in the trunk. The seller had already robbed the 12-bolt and engine out of it,
and was selling the car with ($900) or without ($600) the tach dash. - Rainer
This hugger orange 1969 Z/28 Camaro was parked in the back yard of the original
owners mother in 1972, and sat there until I was able to purchase it in Aug. 1999. It's all original
with 302 CID, M-21, 4:10 posi, speed warning, tach/gauges, tilt wheel, black interior, chambered exhaust,
flat hood and no spoilers. Odometer reads 36642 It was only missing the wheels and a few minor items.
It had a cold air hood on it, and the original flat hood was in the shed. Build sheet was still
attached to the fuel tank.
My buddy calls one day out of the blue and says the car may now be for sale. I go over there that day.
An 80 yrs old woman lets me in to look at the car, but says her grandson is the owner. It was left to him
when her son (the original owner) passed. The nice lady confirms the story that my buddy has
been telling me all these yrs!!. We call grandson (in another state) on the spot. He says
"I will never sell that car". I leave my number just in case.
A month later grandson calls wanting to make a deal. The next day I am back with a tow truck and
a couple thousand bucks. The car is now in the process of being restored. - LTA10

Don't miss this program on Thursday, April 23 at 6 pm in the Big Bend Library. Paul and Voni Glaves have been avid motorcycle travelers since the 1970s. They have ridden BMW motorcycles in all 50 states, all of the Canadian provinces and territories reachable by road, and in several foreign countries. Fresh from retirement – she as a teacher, he as a Community Development Director – they were considering rejoining the workforce to become motorcycle tour guides. As a result they accompanied Ayres Adventures on three different motorcycle tours, for almost two months, in southern Africa. They rode in South Africa, Swaziland, Namibia, Botswana, and Zimbabwe. Always avid photographers, they took a few thousand photos while in Africa. They have distilled them down to one hundred or so to help them illustrate and explain the adventure. This is our first travel program in our series and you won't want to miss it !!
The Big Bend Library is located on the campus of the Terlingua Common School District on Roadrunner Circle in Terlingua.
The Glaveses are valued contributors to the Big Bend Gazette and they are amazing.

Used Mercedes Benz - Reliability At A CostPar allautotool dans Accueil le 19 Avril 2018 à 03:32
Buying a used car is always full of warning signs and alarm bells. Sure, there are a few scare stories hanging around, but buying a used car doesn't have to be the mission some people make it out to be! Just follow a pretty simple rule: if you're stuck, get some help. This way, you'll at least be safe in the knowledge that the decision you make won't be unadulterated, uneducated and stupid.
Some things in the used car market might be fairly obvious: not wishing to conform to stereotypes Autel MaxiTPMS PAD, but a ten year old Skoda Felicia, with 80,000 miles on the clock for £300 is very likely to be less reliable than a 1 year old, used Mercedes Benz E class, with 1,500 miles on the clock for £30,000. You get what you pay for. Nope, a used Mercedes Benz isn't for everyone but the principle remains the same.
If a used Mercedes Benz is precisely your cup of tea, however, then why not look into getting one? Wandering on down to your nearest Mercedes dealership could be a wise move. You don't have to buy a new car. Quite the contrary, the tips and hints that the salesmen give you could be decision making. Plus, they'll be able to trawl through their database of 'approved' used cars in stock. If you're lucky, they'll find precisely the car you want at precisely the right kind of price; strike a deal and you're away!
But motorists these days are most likely to be not as immediate as that launch x431 pro mini. Many people would happily wander around the official dealerships, then wander back home and rove over the internet seeing if they can find the same car, in the same condition, for a lower price. Now, I don't blame people for doing this - it's always good to make every penny count. But it's equally always good to bear in mind that prices will vary from forecourt to forecourt for a reason. Certain cars may have histories, or the dealership themselves may not provide as comprehensive a service as the main Mercedes dealerships in your area. This could work in your favour - if you know what you're looking for then go ahead and find yourself a bargain. But if not, that extra little bit of piece of mind might be pretty important!
It must also be mentioned though, if you have the kind of money to be channelling into buying yourself a used Mercedes Benz, do you really need to? Whilst the economy may be looking hopeful, the lesson of being careful with your money should still remain ubiquitous. With that kind of money, you could buy yourself something smaller, cheaper, and more economical than the Mercedes, and put the cash you've saved towards something else. If you're quick, you might still be able to clinch a bargain through the government's scrappage scheme. But as mentioned before, the scheme is due to draw to a close soon so you better be quick.
Pete J Ridgard is a writer and a car enthusiast. He currently writes for the automotive industry. Here he discusses Used Mercedes Benz cars.

Lock Orientation
When the device switches between portrait and landscape orientation, the 'screen size' also changes. Therefore the whole UI system will be rearranged automatically for adapting new orientation.
Original UI (portrait)
After rotate 90 degrees (without lock orientation)
In some cases, we hope the UI system remains the same although the orientation of device is changed, then we need to use the Lock-Orientation plugin.
Enable Lock Orientation
Lock-Orientation plugin has been integrated in QICI editor as a built-in plugin. To enable the plugin, just open PluginManager panel through menu Plugins->PluginManager, and check the 'Lock Orientation' option.
LockOrientation Component
To use this component, we need to attach it to the node which need to keep the original orientation(usually not UIRoot node). After this, when the device switches between portrait and landscape orientation, the node will rotate accordingly, in order to keep the original layout.
The game is landscape or portrait.
Whether it work on PC(if selected, you can simulate the device is rotated in the preview page, and preview effects after rotation)
After rotate 90 degrees (with lock orientation)
