Fiat didn't really want to make the 500e, but it was forced by emissions regulations to add a full EV to its lineup, which it reluctantly did back in 2013. The vehicle itself wasn't received particularly well at the time, being criticized for its limited range and availability, as well as its high price - it can only be ordered in the states of California and Oregon, although there are plenty you can now buy second hand wherever you live, even in Europe where it was never intended to be sold.
Believe it or not, the 500e is still on sale and has gone essentially unchanged for the last six years, but it's never really been that popular, an issue with which it hasn't been helped by the constant introduction of new and better EVs. But, the 500e is not all bad, thanks to its instantly recognizable styling, peppy performance, and decent usability if you're buying it exclusively for short journeys not too far away from a charging point.
2019 Fiat 500X
Fiat has revealed its revised 500X crossover which has been nipped and tucked for the first time since its 2014 European debut (in the US for the 2016 model year it was launched). It comes with a refreshed exterior with new front and rear light clusters, more tech, and improved engines.
Update 12/12/2018: We've updated this review with images taken at the 2018 Los Angeles Auto Show. Check them out in our gallery below!
Is The 2018 Fiat Panda a Death Trap? Here's the Crash Test Video
Back in 2015, EuroNCAP rated the 2014 Fiat Panda Cross with three-star safety rating. Four years before, the same organization - the European New Car Assessment Program (EuroNCAP), tested the car and granted it a rather high four-star rating. Fast forward to 2018, and a recent safety evaluation tallied the Fiat Panda up as erringly bad. It received zero stars after EuroNCAP safety test performed in Brussels.
Is this now a worse car than it was before? How did it devolve? How can anyone buy it?
Well, let me tell you right away, the 2018 Fiat Panda is still the same car that it was in 2011. It did not change - at all. However, the EuroNCAP testing procedure is not the same. It is dramatically stricter, now requiring far more in terms of active safety gear. It also uses different dummies for testing (with a system that recognizes potential injuries better than before), and it tests the car for speed assistance, lane support, seat-belt reminders, and automatic emergency braking. None of this was required back in the day.
To answer the question from the title of this article I have to tell you that the latest 2018 Fiat Panda is not actually a death trap. It is just a simple city car that actually "meets or exceeds federal safety requirements in every market in which it is sold."
$7.2 Billion - That's the Check FCA Gets to Cash for Offloading Magneti Marelli
This was in the to-do list for Fiat Chrysler Automobiles ever since the company's new CEO, Mike Manley, filled the shoes of the late Sergio Marchionne. Now, the company has sold its component unit, Magneti Marelli, to Calsonic Kansei Corporation for €6.2 billion, which is approximately $7.2 Billion at current exchange rates.
2018 Fiat 500 1957 Edition
Fans of the Fiat 500 can't seem to get enough of the 500 1957 Edition, so much so that the Italian automaker is rolling out a new version of the special edition model. The "new" 500 1957 Edition arrives this fall at a starting price of $20,740. There's no stated cap on the model's volume, but the package is available on hardtop and convertible versions of the 500.
11 New Retro-Styled Cars Available Today
Retro styling done right in the automotive world can result in a car that buyers instantly feel drawn to because they remember the original from their childhood. Granted, if done wrong, it can look really hideous and out of place, but you won't find any of those here.
When mainstream manufacturers do it, they spend a lot of time and money to get it just right, and it really shows. Many of these retro-styled cars are bought first and foremost for the way they look, but they are actually just good cars overall. I've assembled the ones you can buy new right now, in the list after the jump.
Latest spy shots:
2018 Fiat 500L S-Design
Fiat adds another name to its line of S-Design models, this time the family-friendly 500L. Based on the crossover-inspired 500L Cross, the aim of the S-Design version is to inject some extra style into the package, like it's already done with the Tipo, 500X and 124 Spider.
Fiat Looks to Make the 2019 124 Spider More Desireable with New Options
The Fiat 124 Spider still looks the same, but Fiat is aiming to give it more personality by stocking up on options and personalization offerings for the chic retro-styled roadster. The sports car also won't receive a shot of more power. The good news on that end is future owners can opt to get a dual-mode exhaust system that will help make the 124 Spider louder and more formidable to the ears.
2018 Fiat 500 Spiaggina by Garage Italia and Pinninfarina
Marking the 60th anniversary since the unveiling of the first special edition car based on the model 500 - the 500 Jolly, known as "Spiaggina," Fiat showcased their new limited edition of the latest Fiat 500. Called the Fiat 500 Spiaggina '58, the new model is limited to 1958 units. A number which is an homage to the year Fiat showcased the original 500 Jolly, a car adored by rich and famous of the time.
However, apart from Fiat showcasing a rather cool Spiaggina '58 production model based on the 500C with a 1.2-liter, 69 horsepower engine, Garage Italia and Pininfarina prepared their own celebration model. It is a better one.
As the first Fiat car with an all-wheel-drive system, the Fiat 500X is definitely a unicorn when it comes to the Italian producer. It seems, though, that Fiat is only stuck with this unicorn, as their plan for the next five years does not include any major revitalization or rejuvenation. And, if the brand wants to survive, that is exactly what it needs. Actually, having Fiat completely disappear in a few years' time isn't that of a far-fetched idea.
Yet, despite all the media scrutiny that has been present ever since cheerful Marchionne laid out the new plan for the FCA group, Fiat revealed a new car called the 500X Adventurer Edition.
It is obviously yet another attempt at freshening up the car which appeared all the way back in 2014.
Chrysler isn't on the Chopping Block Yet; Fiat to Retreat, Become Euro-Only EV Brand
FCA's investor meeting has taken place, and the official word is that Chrysler will carry on as a North-American.-only brand and Fiat will become a Euro-only EV brand. To take things even further, a company spokesperson has also said that Dodge won't be killed off either. That's a pretty bold move from FCA considering how unpopular Chrysler and Fiat have become here. What happens with these brands next, however, will determine whether or not they'll continue to stick around long term.
Sergio Marchionne May Kill Off Chrysler, Remove Fiat from the U.S. Market
The Chrysler brand has had a good run with roots that trace all the way back to its formation in 1925. A rich and iconic history, however, isn't enough to keep a brand going and it looks like the Chrysler nameplate may get killed off just a few years before it's 100-year anniversary. That's the word from an Automotive News report that Sergio Marchionne could kill off the brand at the June 1st investor's meeting in Balocco, Italy.
Alfa Romeo, Fiat, and Jeep are Now Skipping the Paris Auto Show Too
The auto show exodus isn't slowing down anytime soon. Now, three of FCA's biggest brands have announced their intentions of skipping the 2018 Paris Motor Show. Fiat, Jeep, and Alfa Romeo won't be in attendance in Paris this coming September, joining a long list of companies that include Lamborghini, BMW, Volkswagen, and Mercedes-Benz that won't be around when the Paris Motor Show opens its doors.
The Fiat 500 might be a bit unconventional by modern styling trends, but it has its own loyal following. Never has that been more evident than when we look at its sales figures, which have exceeded more than 1.5-million units sold since 2007. Needless to say, it's an old favorite among its followers and it doesn't look like it's going anywhere soon. It was updated for the 2016 model year and will probably get a revamp in the near future. Until then, we want to cater to our 500 fanboys out there and declare the Fiat 500 our wallpaper of the day. We've hand-picked our favorite, but there's plenty more in the gallery at the bottom of this page if you find yourself wanting a little more. Go ahead and snag them up – they are free!
The Fiat 124 Spider name has a rather long life on the market after it was conceived in 1966 but it was killed off back in 1982, and we thought we were never going to see the name again. Then, Mazda decided to put out a new MX-5 Miata and, naturally, that chassis was shared with Fiat, giving the brand the ability to resurrect the name of a classic. Some might consider the 124 a rebadged Mazda, but anyone who knows Fiat knows better. This car has its own style, personality, and history, giving it more than enough to stand out in the crowd as its own model. The problem is that we haven't given the 124 much love lately, so we decided to give it some screen time as our wallpaper of the day here at Top Speed, and we think it's worthy of some screen time on your desktop too. So go ahead and pick one. Or pick five – there are plenty in the gallery below the one we hand-picked as our favorite.
By the time you read this review, spring may very well have sprung for most of the Northern Hemisphere. There may be no better cure for cabin fever than the 2018 Fiat 124 Spider Abarth.
Based upon and built in the same factory with the Mazda MX-5 Miata, the so-called "Fiata" is at its best in Abarth form, with a tiny bump in horsepower accompanying a sharpened chassis and better-sounding exhaust. Like most Fiats I have driven, the 124 Spider Abarth brings to mind two other F-words: frugal and fun
2018 Fiat 500 Urbana Edition
Originally introduced in 1957, the Fiat 500 remained in production for nearly 20 years, during which it became one of the most iconic vehicles in history. The nameplate was revived in 2007 as a competitor for the modern Volkswagen Beetle and Mini Cooper and was received with great enthusiasm. However, Fiat didn't do much to upgrade it over the last 11 years, with only two minor facelifts launched as of 2018. The latest update was unveiled at the 2018 Chicago Auto Show, where Fiat also brought the turbocharged 1.4-liter engine back to the U.S. in a non-Abarth model. Two months later and the Italian brand launched a new special edition model called the Urbana Edition.
It's become quite common for automakers to add special edition models when their facelifts aren't very consistent, and this is exactly what the Urbana Edition is all about. With add-ons that include black trim, new wheels, and a limited color palette, the Urbana Edition was designed to keep things interesting for a vehicle that's getting a bit long in the tooth. The 500 is not alone in this though, as both the 500L and 500X received identical packages. The 500 Urbana Edition will become available this spring.

2018 Fiat 124 Spider S-Design
Revived in 2016, 50 years after its iconic predecessor first hit the streets, the Fiat 124 Spider was the first compact to challenge the popular Mazda MX-5 Miata after many years. Ironically, the Italian roadster sits on the same underpinnings as the Miata, as Mazda and FCA co-developed most of the chassis. But the 124 Spider received its very own styling — some say that it looks more elegant than the Miata — and borrowed its engines from other Fiat models. And unlike the Mazda, it uses turbocharged units too. With less than two years on the market, the 124 Spider lineup has already expanded to include various trims, an Abarth model, and even a racing version. At the 2018 Geneva Motor Show, Fiat launched yet another variant, the 124 Spider S-Design.
If you're tempted to think about Audi S-Line models, you're not doing it wrong. The S-Design package is somewhat similar, adding extra features inside and out. The exterior is slightly sportier and boasts an exclusive set of wheels, while the cabin gets extra standard equipment that enhances luxury and comfort. Was another package necessary with so many trims and special-edition versions already available? Not exactly, but this is what keeps the market going and the customers coming into dealerships. Let's find out more about the S-Design upgrade below.

2018 Fiat 500 Abarth
Without a doubt, the Fiat 500 is an absolutely iconic automobile. First rolling off the production line way back in 1957, this tiny little go-getter found owners across Italy, eventually selling nearly 4 million units by the time it was discontinued in 1975. In 2007, Fiat Chrysler Automobiles reintroduced the nameplate as a modern front-engine, FWD city car, infusing it with as much charm and fun as possible in an attempt to rekindle the old Cinquecento flame. Although bigger and heavier than those first 500's, the new model managed to offer some real smiles behind the wheel, especially with the go-faster Abarth versions. Taking cues from the old school sport models, the new 500 Abarth gets more power, firmer suspension, and nippier steering, not to mention every aesthetic performance nod possible in such a small package. Fast forward to today, and the entire Fiat 500 lineup was upgraded for the 2018 model year with a turbo engine and a new look, but the fastest and most aggressive of the bunch remains the Abarth model. Upgrades over the normal 500 once again include all the right stuff – big wheels, big brakes, hard suspension, and more power, not to mention the requisite go-faster stripes in the flanks.
All told, the Fiat 500 remains a quirky and fun little city car with a decent splash of performance, a modern take on a classic micro machine. However, with so many other killer hot hatches on the market, such as the Ford Fiesta ST and Mini Cooper S, can the 500 Abarth keep pace, or has the scorpion lost some of its sting?

Fiat Bringing Abarth 124 GT with a Carbon Fiber Roof to Geneva
Fiat is bringing the Abarth 124 GT to the Geneva Motor Show with something no other roadster on the market has: a carbon fiber rooftop. The new special edition model will grace Geneva with a style upgrade we rarely see from a sports car in this segment. It's got plenty of exclusive features beyond the carbon fiber rooftop; all adopted to make this particular version of the Abarth 124 GT stand out from the rest of its kind.
2017 Abarth 695 Rivale
The Abarth 500 has been on the receiving end of some interesting special edition models in the past. We've seen the Abarth 695 Biposto Record, the 595 Yamaha Factory Racing Edition, and the 500 Track Experience, among others. None of them, though, can lay claim to the title of being the "most sophisticated Abarth ever." That distinction, according to Abarth itself, now rests on the shoulders of the 695 Rivale Special Edition.
Developed specifically to celebrate the company's close ties to yacht maker Riva, the 695 Rivale is the physical embodiment of the premium luxury that goes into the craft of building those sea vessels. Safe to say, that "most sophisticated Abarth ever" title fits the 695 Rivale. It's inundated with aesthetic features that shine a big spotlight on the nautical theme of the compact car. Inside and out, the 695 Rivale is decked to the brim with luxury, the kind you expect from any one of the yachts that Riva has built in its 175-year history. The special edition Abarth 695 doesn't pack any power or performance upgrades, but that's an inconsequential omission when you compare it to the quantity and quality of cosmetic additions given to the hot hatch. There's no word yet on how many models Abarth plans to build of the 695 Rivale, but another special edition model, the Abarth 695 Rivale 175th Anniversary, is limited to just 350 units, divided into 175 units for the coupe model and another 175 for the cabriolet version.
Update 02/21/2018: Our friend Cyril stopped by a showroom in Paris and snapped a few shots of the Abarth 695 Rivale. Check them out in the gallery below!
2018 Fiat 500
One of Fiat's most iconic nameplates, the 500 was originally introduced in 1957 and kept in production for almost two decades, until 1975. The nameplate was revived in 2007 as a neo-retro design based on the first mini car. It was Fiat's answer to the modern Volkswagen Beetle and Mini Cooper, introduced in 1997 and 2000, respectively. The new 500 was received with great enthusiasm, and the addition of convertible and Abarth models made it that much more popular. However, unlike the Mini Cooper, the 500 soldiered on unchanged for years, with its first update launched in 2015. Three years have passed, and Fiat is again updating the small hatchback.
Unveiled at the 2018 Chicago Auto Show alongside the rest of Fiat's North American lineup, the update is far from spectacular, but it does add a few new features to the 500's cute exterior. The interior carries over unchanged, which is somewhat disappointing, but the drivetrain department has a new engine to brag about. It's not as new as it is rehashed from an old model, but it's significantly more powerful than the outgoing unit. More about that in the review below.

Alcohol, tobacco and the world's poorA New York Times columnist complains that the world's poor could spend more on schooling and health if the male head of household did not spend so much on alcohol and tobacco (and prostitutes, celebrations, and even cellphones).

South Korea's Government has decided to require the inclusion of graphic health warnings on heat-not-burn (HNB) product packaging, according to a story in The Korea Times.
The Health and Welfare Ministry published their proposed graphic warnings for HNB product packs from May 14 to June 4 to gauge public opinion.
In response, cigarette manufacturers, distributors and smoking groups submitted eight dissenting opinions against the government's decision. They asked the government to use 'less provocative graphics' and to take out numbers linked to mortality risk and disease.
However, health operatives and civic groups submitted 143 opinions of agreement supporting the government, with some asking that the warnings be enlarged.
The Ministry says it has now selected graphic warning labels and messages that will have to be printed on the packs.
It said the warnings would include an image of a cancer cell accompanied by a message saying 'heat-not-burn e-cigarettes addict you to nicotine and expose you to carcinogens'.
"According to the latest study by the Ministry of Food and Drug Safety, various cancer-causing agents like benzopyrene and benzene were detected in HNB cigarettes," a Ministry official said.
"The Ministry has concluded that the HNB cigarette companies' argument that their products are less harmful than traditional cigarettes lacks evidence." Enditem
JTI Removes Tobacco Gantry From High Wycombe Store
Talking Retail
JTI has removed its tobacco gantry from N&N News in Desborough Road, High Wycombe, after securing a prosecution against the store's owner for selling counterfeit tobacco products.
The store's owner, Chandrasegaram Mughaya, was given a suspended jail sentence and ordered to pay £1,650 in costs.
This is the second time that JTI has removed a gantry from a retailer in the town for illegal tobacco sales – in December 2016 the company acted against Micklefield Superstore in Gayhurst Road.
Charlie Cunningham-Reid, UK head of corporate affairs, said: "Once again JTI has demonstrated its commitment to take action against retailers found to be selling illegal tobacco. Our action,
supporting those of law enforcement agencies, serves as a warning to any retailer tempted to sell illegal tobacco products.
"JTI calls on other category partners in the distribution chain to join us by withdrawing their support from any retailer who sells illegal tobacco."

The other half
Dr. Nunglekpam Premi Devi *
As I serve upon 'him', he seems quite perplex;
He's alive, 'm being around him serving;
He sees 'me' one kind, a kind of server;
Though, I never feel that, he never mention that;
I enjoy cooking best for him, and that's how I feel;
He never tries knowing, how I attach to his miniature;
All I knows well his habituating habits,
And he calls 'me' twenties a day;
And he orders 'me fifties a day;
All work I attended, 'tis his work doing;
And he tries knowing activities fully, half knowing;
He enjoys acting, a better man;
Still he's 'my' consorting partner, the other half.
He does randomly bewilder, agreeing things;
As I ask, ask for much permission;
Can I and may I? Allow me and let me?
He loves personating 'himself', a better person,
A best adviser and still a good elderly;
Though I never neglect, 'respecting' 'considering'
And comforting, as he loves to be with these;
Ah! He feels younger shouting at 'me' all,
He feels activating much blaming 'me',
And still he's alive after arguing, that's how I feel;
All he does, never miss arguing and fighting,
And hitting actions, violent and aggressive at;
All I ever endures, he's best only man I trust charging;
Still he's 'my' consorting partner, the other half.
Never has he quit, wondering and persuading self;
Thinking and reasoning; all money matters,
What for? When to? How much? Whom to?
Just a puzzle platform, does he stand sensibly;
Tired of consoling, soothing and easing 'him';
All I does alleviating, it's okay and it's alright;
All I does passionately, tendering and understanding;
Caring 'him' and fancying and apprehending,
Much do me, finding hard to make 'him' appear;
'Better me' and 'better wife', as I shout out loud;
Ah! He's lame critical, angering twenties a day,
Making 'me' burn out explanatory,
'This does' and 'that don't', 'I do and I don't;
Never miss flattering and pleasing, I may say;
Witnessing much loosen ends meet, I bravely hold;
'We're better each other'; 'We're old partners';
Never do I lessen 'him' serving, service as I carry upon;
Still he's 'my' consorting partner, the other half.

December 9, 2010 (LIBERTYVILLE, Ill.) --An employee of the Illinois Secretary of State Driver's License Division is accused of distributing customers' personal information.
Charles Diprima is charged with conspiracy to commit identity theft.
Diprima most recently worked at the Woodstock driver's license facility. But the incidents allegedly occurred when he was at the Libertyville facility.
A spokesman for the secretary of state's office says there is no indication that the information he gave to others has been used yet.

GAINESVILLE, Fla. – Sophomore Brandon Tirado wasted no time redeeming himself for a sub-par performance in the men's hammer at last week's FSU Relays.
His first throw of Friday evening's Pepsi Florida Relays competition carried more than a meter further than his previous personal-best and secured a second-place finish for the former Naples High shot put and discus thrower.
Tirado's opening throw of 61.03 meters (200-3) was the first of his career over 60 meters, and also the first of three on the night.
"I'm very pleased," FSU throws coach Dorian Scott said of the second-year Seminole. "He was more calm in the circle and didn't force it. His warm-ups were 63-64 [meters], so he still rushed it a bit in competition, but that's part of his journey."
Tirado came into the competition ranked fourth all-time among Seminoles with a personal-best of 59.54 meters (195-4), and while he didn't quite overtake No. 3 Andrew Diakos [61.07m], he did become just the fourth Nole to eclipse 200 feet, or 16 meters.
More importantly, Tirado edged closer to earning his first postseason appearance as a throw of 61 meters would have qualified him for the NCAA East Preliminary meet in four of the last five years.
Two of FSU's three entries in the women's 5000-meter run, Tara Rooney and Marianne Aguilar, recorded major breakthroughs with lifetime-best efforts. Rooney's 17:36.75 marked a 15-second improvement off her previous best, while Aguilar dipped under 18 minutes for the first time in 17:52.26; a 27-second improvement. They were 21st and 29th in a field of 50.
On pace to join the duo, Fatema Jaffer finished in 18:19.30.
"All three ladies came to run," women's distance coach Kelly Phillips said. "It was really exciting to see them just get in there and expect to run fast, rather than hoping to run fast."
Redshirt freshman Christian Aman closed out the night in the men's 5000 with his own personal best, a 14-second improvement to 15:04.72.
The Seminoles will return to action Friday, at both Percy Beard Stadium as well as the Texas Relays and Stanford Invitational.


text: I was going to diet and drop from 194 to 189-190ish the loose the water weight the week before the meet. After thinking about it. I don't really want to got through all of the weight loss to do 2 lifts. I'm not competing against anyone other than my own numbers. In addition, it's not a full meet where I'd be able to register my first total. I'm definetley going to clean up my diet starting tomorrow and see where it goes from there. I'm going to cut out the milk in the morning and no snacks. I'm also going to cut the nightly beer with dinner. That's worth at least 300 if not 500 calories a day. I'll also make sure to get in some high tempo recovery workouts. That will lean me up pretty good.

Fort Lauderdale International Boat Show: Review
Fort Lauderdale has wrapped up another successful boat show and this year's event, with its fantastic weather, hordes of clients and impressive line-up of yachts on display, will certainly be one to remember.
The sun shone down on America's East Coast for the duration of the Fort Lauderdale International Boat Show, bringing out the crowds for what has now become the world's largest boat show. Among the visitors were plenty of genuine buyers and a number of the boats on display are now seriously under offer. Yachts from the Camper & Nicholsons' fleet attracted a lot of attention during the week and were inundated with viewings, including the 58.3m (191') Unbridled, the 52.12m (171') Gravitas, the 39.62m (130') Gusto, the 38.16m (125') Northlander, the 30.48m (100') Insatiable, the 26.6m (87'3) Patriot, the 26.19m (85') Playpen and the 23m (75') The Black Dog.
As well as displaying some of the best superyachts at the show, C&NI hosted clients in ultimate style at its VIP lounge right in the heart of the event. As the show area is palatial, Camper & Nicholsons also went the extra mile and provided clients with Porsche Panameras to transport them around the show. After long mornings viewing yachts, clients were also treated to lunch at C&NI's VIP Café inside the Bahia Mar Hotel.
One of the most talked about events of the show was cocktails aboard Gravitas. More than 140 people climbed on board the 52.12m (171') beautiful motor yacht to sip delicious drinks, including Chai Rum, champagne and Casillero del Diablo wines, dine on exquisite food and listen to live music. A 918 Porsche Spyder was on display on the deck of the yacht and provided a much admired centre point for the party. Lucky guests also enjoyed pampering themselves with Replete's wonderful line of skin care. Other sponsors for the evening included Elite Traveler magazine, YCCS Marina Virgin Gorda and Douglas Elliman Fine Homes
On the last night of the show Camper & Nicholsons threw their legendary crew party at their stand for over 300 people, including captains, crew and industry friends. Guests watched the sun go down over the show while listening to music from a live saxophonist and DJ, enjoyed a wonderful selection of foods made by Grateful Palette and refreshed with drinks provided by Cellars Wine and Spirits. Special thanks also goes to Biion Shoes, who provided shoes to over 100 attendees at the event, and Oversea Yacht Insurance, Travelers Luxury Yacht and YachtSign for also sponsoring the event.

Last night I was going to be a good boy and catch up on all of my correspondence. But as most of my good intentions, it turned out wrong. I have a bad hand and it started hurting on my first letter. So I had to go get it soaked in hot Epson salts water. Then I went down for a good bull session with Bob.
The outfit has been reformed and Bob is just downstairs from us. We had a good time last night talking and arguing about some of the policies of the army. Quite a few of them I don't argue with. But I don't think I'll change it.
Four enlisted men and two officers (I was one of the enlisted men) left Bad Hall Tuesday morning for here. Chaplain C?? and Captain ? were the two officers. We really had swell time. When we got to Salzburg, we decided to go by and see Berchtesgaden. ? Is a sight that I wouldn't take anything for seeing. Hitler's home and the homes of some of the other leading Nazis are about half way up the mountain, but there is nothing there now but ruins. The Air Corps did a thorough job on that place. You've heard of the famous large windows in Hitler's house, haven't you? The frame is all that is left. I took a picture of some of the fellows standing in it and one of the view one gets from there. He picked a beautiful spot for his retreat on up the mountain is the famous Eagle's Nest, where most of his big conferences were held. It is still intact. Wasn't touched by bombs or so far by G.I.s. It is built right on the crest of a hill nine thousand feet in the air. You can drive to within about two hundred feet of it and have to climb the rest of the way. Hitler had a elevator for his cars. The drive up there is only about three miles so you can imagine how steep it is. But the roads are good. I burned out the right hand front wheel coming down I touched those breaks a couple of times coming down and they went all the way to the floor. My heart went with them and I started working on the gears. The view from there is truly magnificent. Mountains and snow covered peaks all around. In the distance are two large lakes. One laying in between two mountains and the other at the foot of another. In between is a green valley dotted here and there with towns and villages, connected by long ribbons of white pavement??. I wish you could see it for my powers of description are very poor. Maybe the pictures I took will come out good and it can show them to you one of these days.
We are living in what was at one time German barracks. They have some fairly nice buildings but these Germans make some hard floors. I've heard that we are moving into town soon into houses and into a good deal. I certainly hope so. I don't see any reason why we can't have a good deal when all of the other outfits have.
I certainly hated to hear about Jack being killed. Thanks for telling me about it. He was a darn swell fellow quite a bit like his brother. I saw him last summer just before he took off from Savannah. He was all excited about going over. I wish some of those fellows could know what they're going into. Some of them wouldn't be so hot about coming over.
I'll write again in a day or so. In the meantime, how about doing the same. Give my regards to your folks. Bye for now.

London 23 November 2016: THE WINNERS of the 2016 British Travel Awards (BTAs) have been revealed. Former England rugby union player, turned actor and TV presenter, 6 ft 10 Martin Bayfield took the stage to make the announcements at a Carnivale themed Gala dinner held in London.
Between July and September 2016 the travelling public voted for their favourite travel companies in the annual Awards, which are the largest consumer voted programme across any industry, not just travel.
The UK regions and attractions categories are popular Awards and the county of Cornwall triumphed again this year, holding on to the Best UK Holiday County or Destination Award, which it has held since 2009; the Cornish town of Bude collected Best UK coastal Resort for the second time and a new winner this year for the Best UK Leisure Attraction Award was the beautiful Lost Gardens of Heligan also in Cornwall. The Giant's Causeway in Northern Ireland held on to the Best UK Heritage Attraction Award for the second year running.
Surprise winner Alpharooms stormed in to take three prestigious Awards from rivals – Best National Travel Retailer, Best Hotel Booking Website and Best Travel Retailer for Customer Service.
Holiday giants Saga Holidays and sister company Titan did very well again – Saga collected twelve awards and Titan fourteen. Saga's successes included Best All Inclusive Holiday Company, Best Escorted Adventure Holiday Company, both Best Small and Mid Ship Cruise Line Awards and several destination specific Awards. Titan retained the crown for Best Medium-Sized Special Interest Holiday Company and Best Medium-Sized Escorted Tours Holiday Company.
Saga did however lose out to Shearings this year for the Best Singles Holiday Company, Shearings also took Best Coach Holidays Company and Best UK Coach Holidays / Excursion company.
Best Activity / Sports Holiday Company in the large tour operator section went to Neilson Active Holidays, with Mark Warner taking medium-size and Sailing Holidays the small company Award.
Newmarket Holidays did very well taking Best Escorted Tours Holiday Company, Best Holiday Company to the Italian Peninsula & Malta and Best Holiday Company to Canada and Best Holiday Company to Southern Asia.
It was all change in the Best Weddings & Honeymoons Holiday Company category with Kuoni, Destinology and Honeymoon Dreams taking the awards for large, medium and small categories.
The huge growth sector of cruising continues and the cruise categories saw Royal Caribbean take Best Family Cruise Line; Viking Cruises took Best Cruiseline for Customer Service from 2015 winner Saga; Viking also won again Best River Cruise Line and also new wins for Viking this year were Best Luxury Cruise Line and also Best New Cruise Ship for their vessel Viking Star.
In the hotels section it was new winners for Best International Luxury Hotel Brand - Small Luxury Hotels of the World; Best International Upscale Hotel Brand - Hyatt Regency; Best International Mid-scale Hotel Brand - Holiday Inn and Best International Economy Hotel Brand - Ibis. Best Western, however retained the Best UK Mid-Scale Hotel Brand Award for the third year.
In the more niche awards APH (Airport Parking & Hotels) again received the Best Airport Parking Company Award; Staysure won Best Travel Insurance Provider and Post Office Travel Money regained the Best Foreign Exchange / Travel Money Retailer Award.
BTA chief executive Lorraine Barnes Burton said: "The companies who won 2016 Awards can be justifiably proud as the British Travel Awards are the only travel industry accolade voted for exclusively by the travelling public in a voting process that is transparent, robust and supported by the verification systems of Deloitte LLP.

How do I convert a string to an integer in JavaScript?
try { Number(str) } catch (e) { }for safely converting a string to a Number if it is a number and failing if it is not. Number stores 16 digits and a period at most, regardless of where those 16 digits are. The most significant digits are kept, and the rest is rounded. Then you can convert, round, etc. Number(str) to whatever number format you please. – Andrew Oct 6 '17 at 15:28
The simplest way would be to use the native
Number function:
var x = Number("1000")
If that doesn't work for you, then there are the parseInt, unary plus, parseFloat with floor, and Math.round methods.
var x = parseInt("1000", 10); // you want to use radix 10
// so you get a decimal number even with a leading 0 and an old browser ([IE8, Firefox 20, Chrome 22 and older][1])
unary plus if your string is already in the form of an integer:
var x = +"1000";
if your string is or might be a float and you want an integer:
var x = Math.floor("1000.01"); //floor automatically converts string to number
or, if you're going to be using Math.floor several times:
var floor = Math.floor;
var x = floor("1000.01");
If you're the type who forgets to put the radix in when you call parseInt, you can use parseFloat and round it however you like. Here I use floor.
var floor = Math.floor;
var x = floor(parseFloat("1000.01"));
Interestingly, Math.round (like Math.floor) will do a string to number conversion, so if you want the number rounded (or if you have an integer in the string), this is a great way, maybe my favorite:
var round = Math.round;
var x = round("1000"); //equivalent to round("1000",0)
14What is the
valueOffor? For strings it returns the string itself. – pimvdb Aug 17 '12 at 11:34
23How about "1000" * 1? – idophir Oct 10 '12 at 7:01
71You can also use:
Number("1000")for this type conversion – eliocs Oct 31 '12 at 15:19
46You forgot to mention
~~"1" === 1,
~~1.6 === 1
~~-1.6 === -1,
~~undefined === 0(so is NaN and Infinity and anything else that cannot be converted into an integer) – Tomalak Feb 13 '13 at 14:17
20Why not using simply
Number("1000")?? – TMS Apr 28 '13 at 10:53
Try parseInt function:
var number = parseInt("10");
But there is a problem. If you try to convert "010" using parseInt function, it detects as octal number, and will return number 8. So, you need to specify a radix (from 2 to 36). In this case base 10.
parseInt(string, radix)
var result = parseInt("010", 10) == 10; // Returns true
var result = parseInt("010") == 10; // Returns false
Note that
parseInt ignores bad data after parsing anything valid.
This guid will parse as 51:
var result = parseInt('51e3daf6-b521-446a-9f5b-a1bb4d8bac36', 10) == 51; // Returns true
4Radix is no longer required in 2016. – user663031 Oct 1 '16 at 21:23
6It might not be for newer browsers but radix is still required for backwards compatibility. – Bonner 웃 Jan 20 '17 at 14:21
what about '' , or '02" or "02+1" , or "03,12" or "03.12"? – stackdave Oct 20 '17 at 6:47
2Note that this ignores bad data after the number. For example,
parseInt('0asdf', 10)produces
0. – Sam Apr 19 '18 at 1:08
There are two main ways to convert a string to a number in javascript. One way is to parse it and the other way is to change its type to a Number. All of the tricks in the other answers (e.g. unary plus) involve implicitly coercing the type of the string to a number. You can also do the same thing explicitly with the Number function.
var parsed = parseInt("97", 10);
parseInt and parseFloat are the two functions used for parsing strings to numbers. Parsing will stop silently if it hits a character it doesn't recognise, which can be useful for parsing strings like "92px", but it's also somewhat dangerous, since it won't give you any kind of error on bad input, instead you'll get back NaN unless the string starts with a number. Whitespace at the beginning of the string is ignored. Here's an example of it doing something different to what you want, and giving no indication that anything went wrong:
var widgetsSold = parseInt("97,800", 10); // widgetsSold is now 97
It's good practice to always specify the radix as the second argument. In older browsers, if the string started with a 0, it would be interpreted as octal if the radix wasn't specified which took a lot of people by surprise. The behaviour for hexadecimal is triggered by having the string start with 0x if no radix is specified, e.g.
0xff. The standard actually changed with ecmascript 5, so modern browsers no longer trigger octal when there's a leading 0 if no radix has been specified. parseInt understands radixes up to base 36, in which case both upper and lower case letters are treated as equivalent.
Changing the Type of a String to a Number
All of the other tricks mentioned above that don't use parseInt, involve implicitly coercing the string into a number. I prefer to do this explicitly,
var cast = Number("97");
This has different behavior to the parse methods (although it still ignores whitespace). It's more strict: if it doesn't understand the whole of the string than it returns
NaN, so you can't use it for strings like
97px. Since you want a primitive number rather than a Number wrapper object, make sure you don't put
new in front of the Number function.
Obviously, converting to a Number gives you a value that might be a float rather than an integer, so if you want an integer, you need to modify it. There are a few ways of doing this:
var rounded = Math.floor(Number("97.654")); // other options are Math.ceil, Math.round
var fixed = Number("97.654").toFixed(0); // rounded rather than truncated
var bitwised = Number("97.654")|0; // do not use for large numbers
Any bitwise operator (here I've done a bitwise or, but you could also do double negation as in an earlier answer or a bitshift) will convert the value to a 32bit integer, and most of them will convert to a signed integer. Note that this will not do want you want for large integers. If the integer cannot be represented in 32bits, it will wrap.
~~"3000000000.654" === -1294967296
// This is the same as
"3000000000.654" >>> 0 === 3000000000 // unsigned right shift gives you an extra bit
"300000000000.654" >>> 0 === 3647256576 // but still fails with larger numbers
To work correctly with larger numbers, you should use the rounding methods
Math.floor("3000000000.654") === 3000000000
// This is the same as
Bear in mind that all of these methods understand exponential notation, so
2e2 is
200 rather than NaN. Also, Number understands "Infinity", while the parse methods don't.
It's unlikely that either of these methods do exactly what you want. For example, usually I would want an error thrown if parsing fails, and I don't need support for Infinity, exponentials or leading whitespace. Depending on your usecase, sometimes it makes sense to write a custom conversion function.
Always check that the output of Number or one of the parse methods is the sort of number you expect. You will almost certainly want to use
isNaN to make sure the number is not NaN (usually the only way you find out that the parse failed).
6It depends whether you want your code to also accept
97,8,00and similar or not. A simple trick is to do a
.replace(/[^0-9]/g, "")which will remove all non digits from your string and then do the conversion afterwards. This of course will ignore all kinds of crazy strings that you should probably error on rather than just parse... – kybernetikos Feb 5 '15 at 0:09
5@kybernetikos should probably be
.replace(/[^0-9.]/g, ""), otherwise "1.05" will become "105". – J.Steve Jun 8 '15 at 17:18
Quite right, although I wouldn't use something like that for important code anyway - there are so many ways it can let something through you really don't want to let through. – kybernetikos Jun 11 '15 at 8:07
2I found using Number much more readable in code so thank you for pointing it out as a solution. – carlin.scott Sep 7 '16 at 18:16
@kybernetikos In
var fixed = Number("97.654").toFixed(0); // rounded rather than truncated, we are getting a
string(because of the
.toFixedmethod) instead of a
number(integer). If we want the rounded integer it's probably better to just use
Math.round("97.654");– Edu Zamora Feb 17 '18 at 9:58
ParseInt() and + are different
parseInt("10.3456") // returns 10
+"10.3456" // returns 10.3456
Though an old question, but maybe this can be helpful to someone.
I use this way of converting string to
int number
var str = "25"; // string
var number = str*1; // number
So, when multiplying by 1, the value does not change, but js automatically returns a number.
But as it is shown below, this should be used if you are sure that the
str is a number(or can be represented as a number), otherwise it will return NaN - not a number.
you can create simple function to use, e.g.
function toNumber(str) {
return str*1;
Try parseInt.
var number = parseInt("10", 10); //number will have value of 10.
4You probably want to include the radix with that, too: var number = parseInt("10", 10); – Joel Coehoorn Jul 15 '09 at 20:28
I posted the wrong answer here, sorry. fixed.
This is an old question, but I love this trick:
~~"2.123"; //2
~~"5"; //5
The double bitwise negative drops off anything after the decimal point AND converts it to a number format. I've been told it's slightly faster than calling functions and whatnot, but I'm not entirely convinced.
EDIT: Another method I just saw here (a question about the javascript >>> operator, which is a zero-fill right shift) which shows that shifting a number by 0 with this operator converts the number to a uint32 which is nice if you also want it unsigned. Again, this converts to an unsigned integer, which can lead to strange behaviors if you use a signed number.
"-2.123" >>> 0; // 4294967294
"2.123" >>> 0; // 2
"-5" >>> 0; // 4294967291
"5" >>> 0; // 5
var x = "1000"*1;
Here is little comparison of speed (Mac Os only)... :)
For chrome 'plus' and 'mul' are fastest (>700,000,00 op/sec), 'Math.floor' is slowest. For Firefox 'plus' is slowest (!) 'mul' is fastest (>900,000,000 op/sec). In Safari 'parseInt' is fastes, 'number' is slowest (but resulats are quite similar, >13,000,000 <31,000,000). So Safari for cast string to int is more than 10x slower than other browsers. So the winner is 'mul' :)
You can run it on your browser by this link https://jsperf.com/casttonumber
I also test
var x = ~~"1000"; - on Chrome and Safari is a little bit slower than
var x = "1000"*1 (<1%), on Firefox is a little bit faster (<1%).
Beware if you use parseInt to convert a float in scientific notation! For example:
will result in
instead of
parseIntwouldn't work right for a float.
parseFloatworks properly in this case. – benekastah Oct 14 '11 at 15:57
Also as a side note: Mootools has the function toInt() which is used on any native string (or float (or integer)).
"2".toInt() // 2
"2px".toInt() // 2
2.toInt() // 2
7The third example causes a
SyntaxError, you should use a double dot, e.g.:
2..toInt();the first dot will end the representation of a
Numberliteral and the second dot is the property accessor. – CMS Jan 25 '10 at 6:41
2this question isn't about mootools it's about JavaScript. – Liam May 30 '14 at 13:56
Please see the below example.It will help clear your doubt
Example Result
parseInt("4") 4
parseInt("5aaa") 5
parseInt("4.33333") 4
parseInt("aaa"); NaN (means "Not a Number")
by using parseint function It will only give op of integer present and not the string
To convert a String into Integer, I recommend using parseFloat and NOT parseInt. Here's why:
Using parseFloat:
parseFloat('2.34cms') //Output: 2.34
parseFloat('12.5') //Output: 12.5
parseFloat('012.3') //Output: 12.3
Using parseInt:
parseInt('2.34cms') //Output: 2
parseInt('12.5') //Output: 12
parseInt('012.3') //Output: 12
So if you have noticed parseInt discards the values after the decimals, whereas parseFloat lets you work with floating point numbers and hence more suitable if you want to retain the values after decimals. Use parseInt if and only if you are sure that you want the integer value.
4The question was "How do I convert a String into an integer in javascript" – Pierre Arlaud Sep 2 '15 at 14:08
we can use
+(stringOfNumber) instead of using
+("21") returns int of 21 like the
we can use this unary "+" operator for parsing float too...
1But you cannot use it in formulas! I.e. (1+("21"))*10 === 1210 ! – Alexander Vasilyev Sep 22 '15 at 14:50
1@AlexanderVasilyev I think you can, wouldn't you just use an extra parenthesis around the
+? – NiCk Newman Oct 30 '15 at 2:27
@NiCkNewman I get +("21") from the example in the answer we comment. – Alexander Vasilyev Oct 31 '15 at 10:01
str - 0 to convert
string to
> str = '0'
> str - 0
> str = '123'
> str - 0
> str = '-12'
> str - 0
> str = 'asdf'
> str - 0
> str = '12.34'
> str - 0
Here are two links to compare the performance of several ways to convert string to int
your answer is elegant, Why '1' - 0 output 1? – GoingMyWay Apr 17 '17 at 2:42
There are many ways in JavaScript to convert a string to a number value... All simple and handy, choose the way which one works for you:
var num = Number("999.5"); //999.5
var num = parseInt("999.5", 10); //999
var num = parseFloat("999.5"); //999.5
var num = +"999.5"; //999.5
Also any Math operation converts them to number, for example...
var num = "999.5" / 1; //999.5
var num = "999.5" * 1; //999.5
var num = "999.5" - 1 + 1; //999.5
var num = "999.5" - 0; //999.5
var num = Math.floor("999.5"); //999
var num = ~~"999.5"; //999
My prefer way is using
+ sign, which is the elegant way to convert a string to number in JavaScript.
Google gave me this answer as result, so...
I actually needed to "save" a string as an integer, for a binding between C and JavaScript, so I convert the string into a integer value:
int2str( str2int("test") ) == "test" // true
int2str( str2int("t€st") ) // "t¬st", because "€".charCodeAt(0) is 8364, will be AND'ed with 0xff
max 4 chars, so it fits into an integer
function str2int(the_str) {
var ret = 0;
var len = the_str.length;
if (len >= 1) ret += (the_str.charCodeAt(0) & 0xff) << 0;
if (len >= 2) ret += (the_str.charCodeAt(1) & 0xff) << 8;
if (len >= 3) ret += (the_str.charCodeAt(2) & 0xff) << 16;
if (len >= 4) ret += (the_str.charCodeAt(3) & 0xff) << 24;
return ret;
function int2str(the_int) {
var tmp = [
(the_int & 0x000000ff) >> 0,
(the_int & 0x0000ff00) >> 8,
(the_int & 0x00ff0000) >> 16,
(the_int & 0xff000000) >> 24
var ret = "";
for (var i=0; i<4; i++) {
if (tmp[i] == 0)
ret += String.fromCharCode(tmp[i]);
return ret;
4That's an interesting way to store and retrieve 4-byte values. It doesn't answer the conventional interpretation of the question: how to convert a string representation of a number into an integer value. Regardless, your
int2strfunction stops if a byte is 0, which could be a legitimate element within the value, so the
breakshould be removed so you get a complete 4-byte value returned. – Suncat2000 Mar 16 '17 at 12:47
In my opinion, no answer covers all edge cases as parsing a float should result in an error.
function parseInteger(value) {
if(value === '') return NaN;
const number = Number(value);
return Number.isInteger(number) ? number : NaN;
parseInteger("4") // 4
parseInteger("5aaa") // NaN
parseInteger("4.33333") // NaN
parseInteger("aaa"); // NaN
Returning Not A Number is a bit aggressive for a float, don't you think? – Thomas Ayoub Mar 27 '17 at 15:20
parseInteger, not
parseNumber. I guess every solutions is a workaround since JS does not support integers and floats as separate types. We could return
nullinstead of
NaN, if Not A Number is misleading. – Michał Knapik Mar 27 '17 at 15:25
all of the above are correct. Please be sure before that this is a number in a string by doing "typeot x === 'number'" other wise it will return NaN
var num = "fsdfsdf242342";
typeof num => 'string';
var num1 = "12423";
typeof num1 => 'number';
+num1 = > 12423`
Another option is to double XOR the value with itself:
var i = 12.34;
console.log('i = ' + i);
console.log('i ⊕ i ⊕ i = ' + (i ^ i ^ i));
This will output:
i = 12.34
i ⊕ i ⊕ i = 12
function doSth(){
var a = document.getElementById('input').value;
document.getElementById('number').innerHTML = toNumber(a) + 1;
function toNumber(str){
return +str;
<input id="input" type="text">
<input onclick="doSth()" type="submit">

I use this
String.prototype.toInt = function (returnval) {
var i = parseInt(this);
return isNaN(i) ? returnval !== undefined ? returnval : - 1 : i;
this way I always get an int back.

I saw Tom Jones in concert tonight, man he is still fine!!! And that voice, it's almost as good as it was 40 years ago. AND he is still writing and recording great new material. He's a real musician, not just a showman. It was awesome.
Here's a bit of fun in honour of Tom Jones, and the utterly gorgeous Yvegeny Pluschenko, who can park his skates in my rink ANY time he wants! ;-) (I don't know how to make the youtube video come to my blog, so you'll have to go to it!)

About Reading Fanatic
Reading Fanatic is a toolbar browser extension which claims to help its users locate popular and bestselling ebooks online, completely free of charge, with just a simple download.
A toolbar is an extra addition to your internet search browser. Generally, a toolbar is designed to work with a specific browser, so the toolbar you use with Mozilla Firefox generally won't work for Google Chrome or Internet Explorer.
A browser extension widens the scope of your browser's functionality. In the case of Reading Fanatic, the claim is that this addition to your browser will help your search feature specifically find and identify free ebooks. They claim you can find access to over 1 million free titles.
ReadingFanatic.com says that applying this feature to your browser is incredibly simple – it just requires you to download and install the toolbar. The toolbar is completely free, and there is no registration required.
Whenever you download new items to your hard drive, it is smart to ask yourself is it safe to download this product? Many downloaded items can contain a virus. Even if the item is clean of all malware, toolbar extensions have the ability to collect your information and sell it to third party sources.
While there don't seem to be any reports of the Reading Fanatic toolbar being linked to malware, their privacy policy does state that some of your information will be shared with their partner websites.
The policy goes on to state that none of your personal information will ever be sold or shared. Rather the information shared will be used to provide you with better targeted marketing and product results.

I am not very comfortable to use, so I want to remove
I should have read the reviews here before downloading it. Had to do a system restore to get rid of it.

Check your Public Library for their free eBooks and audio Books.
I have a Kobo Glo and when I click on Kobo eBooks, the only ones that come up, are not free!
Not a good as advertised!
Don`t like reading fanatic at all.Never ever download it.I have had so many problems when I`ve downloaded reading fanatic and my anti-virus goes ballistic.Am staying well away from reading fanatic and advise others to do the same
thank you for the warning !
You haven't downloaded it, yet you know you don't like it? How does that work exactly?
I tried to uninstall it and it says module can not be found so I did a system restore to get rid of it. I should have checked reviewopedia first.

Kid yourself not, there's more than a few people who question the intelligence of the American voter. When their party loses an election, they blame the winner for winning. In doing so, they're blaming the same system by which their party wins an election. Democracy is not something that's right every now and then or we don't have two different democracies, as some seem to think. Thirteen presidents in my lifetime. Seven Democrats, six Republicans, and I can say in all honesty, I didn't do any better or worse under one administration or the other. Almost 60 years of work and I don't recall it being any easier or harder with a conservative or a liberal in the White House. I would be the first to say, support your party, work hard for it, but when the dust has settled, democracy must be the winner. If not, the day will likely come when it's "God help us all," because "we the people" will have been guilty of allowing our democracy to die.

Dare to Kiss
by S.B. Alexander
17-year-old Lacey has an unmatched talent for baseball. Because of her extraordinary talent, Arizona State University wants to talk about a scholarship for its boys' team. When she loses her mother and sister to a home invasion, her baseball dreams die as well. Lacey is diagnosed with Post Traumatic Stress Disorder. Following her psychiatrist's advice, she moves across the country and tries to pick up the pieces of her life. Now only two things matter to Lacey – overcoming PTSD and making the local baseball team. When she meets the tall and sexy Kade, his kisses erase her nightmares. As her symptoms start to fade, her sports dreams take a turn for the worse and Lacey's PTSD comes back with a vengeance. She'll need to learn how to push her demons away, or she'll lose everything good she has left. Dare to Kiss is a powerful new adult romance about tragedy, fiery love and recovery.

I've played a lot of different sports in my day. Most notably football, basketball and baseball in high school.
But my experience with soccer is limited to playing one season when I was in the eighth grade. I played goalie and my only real notable talent was that I could throw the ball "baseball style" farther than most kids could punt the ball.
My knowledge of the game is pretty much limited to the following: 1) The object is kick the ball into the other team's goal more often than they kick it into yours. 2) You can't use your hands. 3) If you touch the ball with your hands, you have to spend two minutes holding yellow cards in a box 15-yards from the spot of the foul while the other team gets two free-throws. Or something like that.
Also, unlike my school teacher wife who can get a cafetorium full of 500 boisterous elementary school kids juiced up with day-before-Christmas-break excitement to instantly quiet down by singing a few notes into a microphone, I have little experience in overseeing, maintaining order among or teaching things to groups of young children. Think of the movie "Kindergarten Cop."

Late last night the Crew was informed by the NM Brewers Guild that Governor Susana Martinez has signed all three of the major bills that affect our breweries. Well, that is just one giant relief. After all, we had spent the better part of two weeks singing the praises of these bills and yet none of them had technically been put into law yet. Now they will be and our breweries will be better for it.
Rather than just do a total rehash of what we've already written (plus, I'm on my break at work as I type this), here are the links to our original story on the bills and the impact they will have on the various breweries who responded to our inquiries about them.
Luke interviewed Chris Goblet of the Brewers Guild for the initial story on what the bills are all about and what they mean.
I talked to Gabe Jensen about what the bills could mean for Bosque Brewing in the near future and beyond.
To follow that, I asked Jeff Erway at La Cumbre, Ken Carson at Nexus, and Skye Devore at Tractor about what the bills could mean to their breweries.
And finally Luke chatted with Rod Tweet of Second Street and Nico Ortiz at Turtle Mountain, who were the driving force behind SB238 and its potential impact on all brewery-restaurants.
So whether you agree with the rest of her politics or not, we think on this one occasion you can raise a pint to the Governor this weekend as a show of gratitude.
Rapid-fire weekend goings on
Don't fret if you're wondering what to do with yourself this weekend, it is jam-packed full of fun at the breweries and elsewhere.
Up at the Balloon Fiesta Park on Saturday from 11 a.m. to 4 p.m. is the Great New Mexico Food Truck and Craft Beer Festival. It costs just $5 to get in, though you will of course have to pay for the food and beer you purchase.
The full list of participating trucks: (courtesy of the event's Facebook page)
• Adoughbe Pizza
• Artisan Valley Smokehouse
• Basil's Home Cooking
• CalleOcho
• Castaneda's Kitchen and Catering
• Europa Roaming Kitchen
• Gedunk Food Truck
• The Greek Geek
• Hot off the Press
• Hot Stuff Hawaiian Shave Ice
• Joe Mama's Famous Foods
• Karibu Café
• Kimo's Hawaiian BBQ
• The Lunch Box
• Mama Bee's Cuisine and Catering
• Nosh Wagon
• O'Bean's Coffee Cruiser
• Oh Kay Cee's BBQ Truck
• Street Food Boulevard
• Street Food Institute
On the beer side of things, Abbey Brewing, De La Vega Pecan Grill Brewing, Ponderosa Brewing, Rio Grande/Sierra Blanca Brewing, and Santa Fe Brewing will all have beer available. There will also be some beers from Sam Adams, including a few specialty taps.
We are hoping that all of you who wanted to attend Tart at Heart at Sister on Saturday afternoon got your tickets, because they are sold out.
On the new beer front, the winner of the National IPA Challenge, Scale Tipper, is back at Bosque's two Albuquerque locations. Get over there and get it as fast as you can, because we guarantee you, it will sell out fast.
There will of course be live music and other events at breweries across town such as La Cumbre, Marble (both ABQ locations), and Tractor Wells Park. For a list of who's performing where, check their respective entries in The Week Ahead in Beer.
And finally …
The Albuquerque Isotopes season opened Thursday night. In a short window of time that I had before the game (I write about the team, in case any of you have somehow missed that; you can find my stories via my other Twitter page, @TopesWriter), I did a quick check of the beer taps on the concourse.
About the best thing I saw besides the standard Isotopes Slammin' Amber and Triple-A Blonde was a tap for Sierra Nevada Hoppy Lager. There wasn't even a visible Lagunitas tap. Now, the Topes don't always activate all their tap stations for weekday games, so I'll try to do a more thorough investigation this weekend.
In the end, I have no official word as to why our minor-league stadium is so craft beer-deficient (word on the street is there is some sort of exclusive rights or distributor issue, but I've never been able to get anyone working for the Isotopes on the record). Even the Kansas City Royals are pouring Santa Fe Java Stout this season. The bleepin' Royals! In Missouri! Again, ugh.
It appears that new Marble taproom that will be built across the street in the football stadium parking lot can't get here soon enough. And yes, the Crew will be following up on that huge story when we can.
Gotta get back to the day job before I head over to the ballpark for the night job. And at some point maybe I'll get a pint of Scale Tipper for myself. Maybe.

RAID in Cloud Hosting
Any content which you upload to your new cloud hosting account will be held on quick SSD drives that work in RAID-Z. This setup is built to work with the ZFS file system which runs on our cloud web hosting platform and it adds an additional level of security for your content in addition to the real-time checksum verification which ZFS uses to ensure the integrity of the data. With RAID-Z, the information is stored on a number of disks and at least 1 is a parity disk - whenever info is written on it, an additional bit is added, so in case any drive fails for some reason, the integrity of the data can be verified by recalculating its bits based on what is stored on the production hard drives and on the parity one. With RAID-Z, the operation of our system won't be interrupted and it'll continue operating efficiently until the faulty drive is changed and the information is synchronized on it.
RAID in Semi-dedicated Servers
The data uploaded to any semi-dedicated server account is saved on SSD drives which work in RAID-Z. One of the drives in type of a setup is used for parity - every time data is copied on it, an extra bit is added. In case a disk turns out to be problematic, it will be taken out of the RAID without interrupting the functioning of the Internet sites since the data will load from the remaining drives, and when a new drive is added, the info that will be duplicated on it will be a blend between the data on the parity disk and data stored on the other hard disks in the RAID. This is done so as to ensure that the data that is being copied is correct, so once the new drive is rebuilt, it could be included in the RAID as a production one. This is one more warranty for the integrity of your info as the ZFS file system which runs on our cloud hosting platform compares a unique checksum of all of the copies of the files on the various drives in order to avoid any chance of silent data corruption.
