New Orleans family happy to be in Blaine
"The worst part was not knowing where my mom was for several days," said Blaine resident and New Orleans native Sue Cushman, who finally connected with her invalid mother on Saturday, September 3, after four days of no contact.
Cushman, office manager for the Bay Medical Clinic, has lived in Blaine for more than 20 years with her husband Jeff and children Kim, Christopher and Laura but still has a lot of family left in her hometown, New Orleans. With hurricane Katrina's winds and subsequent flooding, most of her family dispersed to relatives around the immediate area, but she lost track of her mother who was living in a rest home and unable to walk.
"We had been told she was sent to Baton Rouge, but found her in New Iberia," Cushman said. "When the Red Cross made the connection and called late that Saturday night. The first thing she said was 'I was so worried about you.'"
Cushman eventually pieced together the story. After Hurricane Katrina passed through the last weekend in August, Cushman called her mom on August 28 and daily after that. "I don't think they told the residents much," she said, "but when I called on Wednesday I was told that she'd left at 3 a.m. on a bus, but they didn't know where, maybe to Baton Rouge." Cushman contacted the Red Cross on Friday, and at 10 p.m. Saturday night they called back with the name of the rest home where she ended up in New Iberia, Louisiana.
"They mis-spelled her name, so that didn't help," Cushman said, "but we also found out that it took a couple of days to get from New Orleans to New Iberia, and we don't know what happened to them on that trip. She was still in her nightgown when she showed up."
This kind of story is repeated with variations thousands of times over for everyone touched by hurricane Katrina, including many local people. Blaine high school basketball coach Dan Rucker was in the Navy and on shore leave in Florida 20 years ago when he met a pretty young girl from New Orleans named Belle Green, whom he brought back to Blaine and married in the Congregational Church. She spoke matter-of-factly about the controversies swirling around how well or poorly disaster relief had been provided. "Woulda coulda shoulda," she said, "none of that matters. This hits everyone hard, the middle class because they don't qualify for some things but are still left without a job, income, house and most of their stuff, and a lot of people don't have flood insurance."
Rucker's aunt from Kenner, Louisiana, Ann Mitchell, came to visit August 13 and has not been able to get back. She was to have returned Labor Day weekend but now has tickets for October 2. She's not able to contact her office and is afraid she has no job, but more than that is worried about the liveability of her house in Kenner. "They're trying to have us throw out our refrigerator and freezers because of the health risk of rotting food," she said.
Mitchell's house has a tree leaning
on it and there's
water damage, perhaps from a hole from the
tree, but no one has been to the house to inspect
it from the inside. "Luckily
our area didn't flood," she said, "but
we still don't really know what's
going on, and now there's this new storm
coming." Despite
the risks, Mitchell said a few weeks ago that
she would go home at the end of the week, "and
come back if I have to."
Mitchell works at a New Orleans non-profit called the Association for Retarded Citizens (ARC). Carolyn Harvey, a co-worker, was at Charity Hospital in New Orleans having surgery to repair a baseball-sized hole eaten in her leg by a Recluse Spider when Hurricane Katrina hit and power was lost. She was marooned in the hospital, out of touch with everyone for a week when Mitchell made contact with her last week from Blaine.
"She was left at the hospital for several days, during which they were even getting shot at from outside. She eventually got picked up by her son in a fisheries department truck and was taken to the airport and then air evacuated to Houston," Mitchell said.
Harvey's surgical wound became infected, she thinks from the ride in the truck, but other than that "I'm OK," she said on the phone, "things worked out."
Cushman's niece Vicki Genova, her husband Mike and children CC, Anthony, Nikki and Veronica all evacuated from their home in the New Orleans suburb of Metarie before the hurricane struck and arrived at Cushman's house on B Street. Mike, a mechanical engineer with W. H. Linder, an oil company, returned to work with their car to a temporary office at his company's headquarters in Houston.
"We were evacuated in phases, but it's a tough decision to make. You travel at a foot an hour. It makes the hour trip to Baton Rouge intone taking at least six hours, maybe more. But you have to decide, and the homeowners don't get much time to decide what's best for their safety."
Cushman said that the controversies don't matter as much as does the fact that the people who did the best were those who could take care of themselves in some way, and that's not necessarily those with cars or relatives to go to. "You do what you can," she said, "and then if you must, accept whatever it is that others can do for you. It's no use complaining when so much has been lost by everyone."
Genova's calm demeanor as she sat at a neighborhood garage sale at the Rucker's, her children playing with some of the items while flowing around her like puppies, began to break down when she spoke of how people in Texas treated the hurricane refugees.
"Texas was.."she began to say, her eyes misting. "OK, what I was saying is that Texas was wonderful. They took us in like they really cared, and that meant the most of all."
Genova said her husband planned to return to Metairie and that "the nerve wracking part is that we just don't know what he'll find. Jefferson parish is still open, and I think our house has electricity, but not knowing makes it all tough," she said.

More than just a fun party trick, human beatboxing transforms a normal person into a full-blown orchestra. In these 6 beatboxing performances from TEDx events around the world, watch as everyday citizens channel drum machines, trumpets, synthesizers, even the didgeridoo.
Tom Thum at TEDxSydney
Gaining more than 300,000 views in just three days, Tom Thum's beatbox performance at TEDxSydney is something to admire. Here, the veteran beatboxer takes on the didgeridoo, sitar, double bass and transforms the Sydney Opera House into a "smoky downtown jazz bar" with just a microphone and a looping station.
Smily at TEDxTokyo
A man beatboxes via didgeridoo. Enough said.
Jonatan Lopez and Man Wai Che at TEDxYouth@BeaconStreet
Cultures collide as beatboxer Jonatan Lopez (JFlo) and Juilliard-trained bassist Man Wai Che fuse genres into a seamless performance that takes musical collaboration to a whole new level.
krNfx and Elysha Poirier at TEDxToronto
At TEDxToronto, two-time Canadian beatbox champion Terry Im (krNfx) steals the show with this super rad collaboration with visual artist Elysha Poirier. Reggie Watts, look out.
Beasty at TEDxBoredeaux
Though beatboxer Beasty's talk is in French, you don't need to parle français to appreciate his remix of "Eye of the Tiger," which probably could get Rocky to trade Philly for Paris.
Abram Wuliger at TEDxDuke
At TEDxDuke, Abram Wuliger beatboxes on the flute — and it's pretty spectacular. Calling all aspiring rappers — please sample this.

"This has been a great vehicle. I purchased it at 38,000 miles and now have 107,000 miles 4 1/2 years later. It is serviced primarily at a Ford dealer because no Land Rover near me. Regular servicing has been very affordable -- I typically buy my own oil and filters but have Ford dealer do the change, dispose of oil, plus they do safety checks, etc. I have replaced my front air bags (suspension) and will likely do the rear air bags in the near future. Cost is not too bad if you can do the change yourself, or purchase the parts and have a professional do the installation. This is my daily driver and it has proven very reliable. Comfort is still top notch, styling still looks good, ride is smooth, moderate off-road performance is great. Only real limit with off-road is your choice of tires. I admit to being concerned about reliability when I purchased the vehicle, but it has been very reliable with good, consistent power. In hindsight I'd purchase again, but be sure to research model year and individual vehicle records. 2007-2009 are recognized as among the most reliable Range Rovers available. Price at time (used) was better than Land Cruiser, about same as Tahoe, Yukon, Expedition, and the Range Rover fit in garage better."

Pros: "handling; comfort; stylish looks"
Cons: "no blue tooth and aftermarket parts"
Likely to recommend this car? (1-10): 10
"I have owned a lot of vehicles over the past 36 years, and surprisingly this one has been the best yet. I was apprehensive when I bought it (used w/ 40K) over two years ago, but I had a comprehensive pre-check and since then I haven't had any problems. When I bought it I had a key fobe problem but the seller took care of that and since then not one additional problem. Yes, I do drive it off road (gravel-logging roads) and have plowed it through 6+ inches of snow. It's built like a tank, but handles excellent on the highway. Either I have just been down right lucky or the 07 was the best year. It has a Jag engine so it doesn't cost me alot to maintain. I put a K&N filter on it and get 19 city and 24 highway; no complaints there either. Suspension system is awesome. I don't kid myself, when something breaks it will cost, but so far I wouldn't get rid of this vehicle for anything; it looks great too!"

"I drove an Escalade, QX56, and Avalanche before buying the Range Rover. The only vehicle that comes close to the Range Rover overall is the Escalade. I heard the horror stories about the Range before buying it. I didn't listen, as I wanted it, and figured I would get an extended warranty anyway. The only issue I had was the suspension, which seems to be a common issue after a while. As long as you have warranty, you're good. If not, be prepared to spend at least $2500 on the suspension. I was lucky. My suspension went out while under the warranty."

"The 2011 Range Rover is much improved from previous models when it comes to quality and reliability. The comfort of the car is unmatched, and it works well to service a family's needs. The technology still needs upgrades as the Nav, Sat Radio and other creature comforts are still the same as the when the model was launched in 2003. I suspect that all of that was taken care of with the new 2013 edition Range Rover."

Pros: "Comfort, power, lots of technology"
Cons: "Glitches with some of the technology"
Likely to recommend this car? (1-10): 10
"We bought this vehicle brand new and were a little blown away with the price tag but it is a luxury vehicle. This thing is loaded. Heated & cooled seats, 360° cameras, etc. I must say this SUV is easy on the eyes, just a beautiful design with nice lines. Our journey hasn't been perfect and there has been a couple of glitches with the cameras but that's not a deal breaker. The DvD screens in the headrests are nice and out of the way. We've taken trips up north and nothing but comfort was experienced. I have to say this vehicle has some power, takes a little bit to get it going because it's heavy but keep in mind it's not supposed to corner like a Porsche. This is a solid SUV and I feel safe going anywhere with my husband and our two children. We didn't purchase this vehicle for great gas mileage, we wanted to give this luxury SUV a shot and when this one wears out I expect we'll buy another. My husband is in love."

Before guys like Deion Sanders and Bo Jackson chose to play two sports professionally, there was Ed Ehlers.
"He was a real exceptional athlete," said Ed's son Tom. "Coach [John] Wooden had said many times that he was one of the better athletes he'd ever coached."
Ed Ehlers was arguably one of the greatest athletes to ever come through Michiana. He was a star player on a South Bend Central basketball team coached by John Wooden. In college he played three sports at Purdue.
And get this, he was good enough to get drafted to play pro-football, basketball, and baseball.
"He just loved to play games," said Tom. "He was by far the most competitive person in my whole lifetime that I have ever run across. He was always competing at everything. I don't care if it was just playing cards, he was a competitor."
He played basketball for the Boston Celtics and spent a few years playing minor league baseball.
After he retired from sports Ed focused on his family, but he couldn't help pass on his competitive edge to his son Tom, who also wound up in the pros. Tom says his dad didn't push him hard, but he did instill the lessons to become a great football player.
"Sports is a great teacher of life," said Tom, who played in the NFL for the Eagles and Bills. "It's not all about just winning and losing. It's about the lessons that you learn from being on a team and preparation for competing. How you compete and how you conduct yourself."
Neither guy ever lost their love for sports. Tom says even later on in life, his dad was always looking for the next competition.
"As adults we rode across Iowa in what is running this week called the Ragbrai," said Tom. "It's a bicycle ride across the state. I got it for him when he was 70 and he want to do it five more times. I rode with him every time and he was just a very young man for a long time."

This morning, we are spotlighting another member of the quarterbacks crew who in camp is battling with second year QB Greg McElroy for the third string quarterback job and that is former Tulsa quarterback GJ Kinne. He may not have familial ties to the New York football scene like Matt Simms but Kinne has ties to another former Jet quarterback; Chad Pennington. His father is
former Baylor linebacker Gary Joe Kinne who is currently the linebackers coach in Chicago.
He's built at 6-1.5 tall and 225lbs.
The guy had some really solid numbers when he was at Tulsa. He had 9,469 yards passing, 81 touchdowns, and a 61.3 completion percentage (732 comp/1,195 attempts) for his college career. With his feet, Kinne had 1,365 yardsrushing and scored 15 touchdowns.
In his final year at Tulsa, he threw for 3,087 yards, 28 TDs, and 12 INTs for a 63.3 completion percentage (247 comp/390 attempts). He ran for 405 yards and scored three TDs.
Here is some tape that on Kinne to wet the pallet:

A virgin soil epidemic occurs when bacteria or viruses are introduced into an area where no similar diseases have ever occurred before. Lacking even partial immunity, populations are devastated by such epidemics. Many scholars believe that the severity of Native American loss of life during the first decades of European colonization was due to the fact that these were virgin soil epidemics.

Watch what you say online, Netflix
The company gets in hot water with regulators about a Facebook post, sparking a wide-ranging debate over what constitutes public disclosure in the digital age.
For much of Friday morning, the business and tech communities have been reading over the following 43 words from Netflix (NFLX) chief executive Reed Hastings and wondering whether they warranted the heap of trouble they've caused his company with the Securities and Exchange Commission:
"Congrats to Ted Sarandos, and his amazing content licensing team. Netflix monthly viewing exceeded 1 billion hours for the first time ever in June. When House of Cards and Arrested Development debut, we'll blow these records away. Keep going, Ted, we need even more!"
Hastings posted that pat on the back for his chief content officer to his Facebook page
on July 3. It was shared at least 36 times on Facebook (FB) alone and made the rounds on Twitter and in publications like TechCrunch. Netflix stock just happened to rise 13% the day of the posting and there was no press release or filing with the SEC noting those viewing numbers. That got the regulators' attention.
Hastings says that on Wednesday, the SEC tapped him on the shoulder with a Wells Notice -- a warning that the commission was suggesting civil action against Netflix over the post. In the SEC's eyes, Hastings violated a fair disclosure regulation (or "Reg FD" in the biz) because he didn't provide equal access to investors and his news wasn't issued "publicly" with an 8-K filing or press release.
Oh, the howls that followed. Business Insider writer Jay Yarow called the SEC's "attack" on Netflix "ridiculous" in its overreach. His Twitter followers were less than unanimous in their support, and that's kind of the way it went on Facebook, Twitter and elsewhere for much of Friday.
One side echoed Brad Loncar of Xconomy and asserted that the SEC needs to get with the times and pick bigger fights. The other sounded more like Chris Ciaccia of The Street, who noted that the SEC is just performing its function as a regulatory body and might consider more action like this in the future as executives shun proper channels for posts and tweets. Tesla Motors (TSLA) CEO Elon Musk toed that thin line on Monday, when he tweeted that Tesla "was narrowly cash flow positive last week" instead of issuing a release or 8-K statement.
Before the tech world started listening to itself talk and debating how the SEC should do his job, Hastings used his Thursday post to divert credit for his company's July share price increase away from his post and to a Citigroup (C) report issued the night before. He also made an argument for social media as public disclosure:
First, we think posting to over 200,000 people is very public, especially because many of my subscribers are reporters and bloggers.
Second, while we think my public Facebook post is public, we don't currently use Facebook and other social media to get material information to investors; we usually get that information out in our extensive investor letters, press releases and SEC filings. We think the fact of 1 billion hours of viewing in June was not "material" to investors, and we had blogged a few weeks before that we were serving nearly 1 billion hours per month.
About the last thing Netflix needs right now is the SEC breathing down its back. Activist investor Carl Icahn bought a 10% stake in the company back in October and started making noise about folding it into Amazon (AMZN) or Apple (AAPL). That made the company adopt a "poison pill" strategy that would flood the market with shares if any one person's stake was greater than 10%.
It's racked up $5 billion in debt buying content from DreamWorks Animation (DWA), the Weinstein Company and elsewhere, it just reported an 88% drop in revenue last quarter and reportedly paid $300 million to $350 million for Disney content that won't be Netflix exclusive until 2016. Amazon's copying its $8-a-month streaming subscription rate, Redbox's new streaming service offers a streaming/DVD bundle for that price and Netflix is just trying to convince subscribers it won't raise prices any time soon.
Is the SEC's timing ideal? No. But does a chief executive's belief that a 244,000-"friend" social media following (or about half that it Musk's case) equals a "public" forum make it settled law in the eyes of regulators? Absolutely not. The nerds can wail, cry and tap out polemics all they'd like, but until the merits of social media are argued successfully in front of the SEC, chief executives might want to heed the lesson the average teen tends to learn the hard way: Watch what you say online.

Brooklyn Center police shot and killed one suspect early Friday morning following a traffic stop at the Interstate 694 on-ramp from Shingle Creek Parkway.
The Hennepin County sheriff's office said police shot the suspect during a struggle in the traffic stop around 2 a.m. There's no information on the circumstances of the traffic stop or why the suspect struggled with officers.
Hennepin County crime lab investigators were processing a minivan at the scene of the shooting.
The scene of the officer-involved shooting is extremely close to the scene of a murder Thursday morning between the Super 8 Motel and Denny's restaurant on James Circle N.

Everett maps new path for K-C mill site
By Noah HaglundHerald Writer
EVERETT — The future of a big piece of Everett's waterfront rests on the shoulders of the City Council, whose members are weighing crucial decisions in the coming weeks.Should they zone the shoreline near the former Kimberly-Clark mill for water-dependent industries, to take advantage of the property's rare access to deep water and rail lines? Or should they reserve the 90-plus acres for office parks and light manufacturing, which some believe promise more jobs and higher wages?Another dilemma: whether to allow public access to this slice of waterfront at the risk of irking its neighbors, Naval Station Everett and the Port of Everett.Knowing their decision could reverberate for generations to come, the City Council is taking its time. Last week, Council President Ron Gipson pushed back a vote that had been expected Dec. 19. That makes a final decision unlikely until January."It's going to be something that's going to be with us for the rest of our lives," Gipson said. "We'll make sure everybody's comfortable with it."The vote involves the city's land-use regulations and part of its comprehensive plan.Everett, once known as Mill Town, lost its final mill in April, when Dallas-based Kimberly-Clark closed its Everett site for good. More than 700 people lost jobs. Demolition began last summer.Kimberly-Clark is trying to sell the vacant 66-acre property, which makes up the bulk of the waterfront area the city is looking to rezone.Kimberly-Clark has talked to several prospective buyers, though confidentiality agreements prevent disclosing who they are, company spokesman Bob Brand said. One party, however, has made no secret of its interest: The Port of Everett.The city has spent months examining the issues at play, through public meetings, an economic analysis and hours of testimony from everyday people and experts alike.The information led the city Planning Commission, in October, to a unanimous recommendation of zoning the immediate shoreline for water-dependent industrial development. That option would allow development that doesn't require water access in areas farther from the shore.The commission had three other options to consider: keeping the area's current zoning for heavy industry and some other uses, a path Kimberly-Clark supported; requiring mostly water-dependent industrial uses; or zoning for business parks with more opportunities for the general public to enjoy the waterfront.The commission's recommendation added restrictions, such as a 50-foot height limit, that could go up to 80 feet to accommodate manufacturing equipment. It also bars some types of heavy manufacturing that create unpleasant smells, excessive noise or dust.Fish processing, composting and petroleum refineries wouldn't be allowed, city planning director Allan Giffen said.Mayor Ray Stephanson said he supports the commission's choice and the "thoughtful approach" they used to get there."A majority of the people who participated in the process spoke in favor of keeping the site as a jobs center with industrial zoning," Stephanson said.Whether in greater port operations, shipbuilding or the aerospace industry, the mayor said that course would lead the city in a prudent direction.Stephanson said he has no issue with the council taking more time for its decision, so long as they vote by late January. That would allow the new rules to take effect before Feb. 15, when a yearlong city development moratorium for the site is set to expire."Without a moratorium, we could certainly have an outcome there that's not in concert with what the planning commission recommended," Stephanson said.Not everyone on the City Council is ready to sign onto the commission's recommended plan.Councilwoman Brenda Stonecipher reasons that business parks and light manufacturing best serve the city's goal of economic development, environmental cleanup and public access. Banking the city's future on heavy industry is short-sighted, Stonecipher said."I think that vision really only lasts for 10, 20 years, then you're going to see this kind of operation gone," she said. "Shouldn't we look at an 80- to 100-year plan? That's really the timeline for waterfront development if you look nationally."Stonecipher points to the economic analysis performed for the city, showing that business parks would create a higher density of jobs and higher average wages than heavy industry.Furthermore, she contends the Port of Everett isn't big enough to compete with the much larger ports of Seattle and Tacoma."The economic case is pretty clear-cut as to which alternative is better for the city and the taxpayers," Stonecipher said.Councilman Paul Roberts said he's continuing to study the options, but that Stonecipher's argument deserves consideration. Roberts said there's a wealth of information to inform any decision the council makes, thanks to the planning commission's work.Councilman Shannon Affholter, meanwhile, said he's comfortable with the conclusion reached by the Planning Commission."We have a long history of a working waterfront," Affholter said. "Maybe there's a potential for expanding cargo handling and shipbuilding capabilities."While an office park might, theoretically, support more jobs, Affholter wondered whether the market would support it. There's evidence of an oversupply of this type of commercial property, he said, and companies might prefer to locate office parks in less expensive commercial zones farther from the water."The worst thing we can do is to get stuck with ideas that look good on paper, but might ultimately fail because of economic realities," he said. "The last thing I want to see is for this property to sit vacant for a decade or longer."Everett's waterfront was first developed at the turn of the 20th century. From the 1930s on, it was mostly used for pulp and paper manufacturing.That's left toxic trouble spots to clean up, including petroleum products on land and chemicals left over from the paper-making process in the adjacent waterway.The state Department of Ecology has reached an agreement with Kimberly-Clark outlining the kinds of studies and investigations needed to clean up the contamination on land. Those studies will be used to put together a cleanup plan.Noah Haglund: 425-339-3465, email@example.com.

This was the most expensive hostel in which I've ever stayed, but it was also the nicest. Location is close to Dearborn Street subway Van Buren station and walkable to railway and bus stations to the west. Plenty of room in the rooms and public spaces. Price high for a hostel but good value for money for facility and Chicago prices.
No breakfast meat.
Very close to city centre perfect place for meeting people
Great location, spacious and clean rooms, laundry and kitchen facilities, free breakfast, friendly staff
Washrooms could have been cleaned more often, weak WiFi connection on the upper floors.
The breakfast was fresh and delicious.The hostel staff was professional, knowledgable and friendly.I rented a bed in room 508.The design and amenities were well appointed and functional.I would stay at the hostel on my next visit to Chicago.Jimmy, Ho Chi Minh City
close to subway blue line in case you need to make a run for the airport, close to museums and parks, accessible, clean , efficient, nice staff.
Very good rooms. Good cont. breakfast. Staff works hard to keep the kitchen and dining very nice. Guests should be ENCOURAGED to clean up kitchen.
Very noisy outside--Chicago.
The price, location, cleanliness, quiet rooms. Good place to stay cheap.
The ladder to the upper bunk is very slick and hard to climb. There was no meat offered for breakfast, just cereal and pastries, good, but still no protein.
i liked the location a lot. I had looked at hotels in the area and because there were conferences going on the week I was there the hotels were really expensive. The hostel was really good value for money ...and there was a free breakfast. The staff could not have been nicer!
probably just having to share a room a with 7 others- a little noisy- and being on the top bunk but it wasn't so bad and the bed was pretty comfortable.
It was right in the centre of the city, rooms were spacious.
The shower drain was covered in hair when we arrived. Put me off using the facilities.
Bfast was included, bathrooms never busy, good location
Beds really creaky, thin mattress, seems to attract a lot of young travellers who show little consideration to hostel rules regarding noise and lights, bedside lamps are a joke they light up the entire room. Next time will pay a bit more for own room and get a decent nights sleep.
Great value Top Location Breakfast provided
Boring/lifeless hostel
The staff is super nice, you can't beat the location. They'll let you store your bags in the outside area lockers when getting too early for check in or after check out which is really useful and they have great recommendations on what to do around the city on the billboards in each floor.
Few showers and restrooms, it got really cramped in the mornings.
The People are sooo Nice Friendly polite and helpful. The location from The hostel is great....so central and you can reach so many cool places in soon time by walking.
It was sometimes hard to share the less showers with all the girls. So maybe some more showers in the bathrooms would be nice. The breakfast food is really easy and unspecial. Would be cool not to have every single morning the same food items. It would be cool to have possibilities to pluck the cell phones while you sleep in the top of a bed.
Breakfast, furniture, location
10-bed female dorm was spacious with lockers, location was great
Female bathroom needed more upkeep, bed was assigned to me so I got a top bunk
The offers for free or cheap attractions. It sounded like a good offer.
When it comes to wifi I had 400 error problem on Windows phone . I had to go for DQ wifi
The location
THe woman's bathroom floor was awful. someone with really long hair brushed it while stilling on the toilet several nights in a row.
They have many facilities that you can enjoy during your stay.

Scholastic does author invetriews in the back all the time. They call it Extras Inside. So, yeah. Jake is going to do a two part interview. Half the questions in the back of the book. It wouldn't spoil anything, since no one would likely read it until they finished reading book three. Then they'd be able to read some questions that might explain any loose ends, though I hope not to have many. But part two would be another podcast on Fiction Addict. So, if you can think of any questions you are wondering about the overall story, feel free to ask them. You will NOT be answered until after book three comes out.|
i can't wait to watch the movie!!!|

Fuel Economy (city/hwy)
2005 Mazda Mazda6
This 2005 review is representative of model years 2003 to 2008.
By Dan Jedlicka of MSN Autos
Bottom Line:
New hatchback and station wagon add to allure of sporty Mazda6 lineup.
Mazda really should be further along than it is, having pioneered use of the rotary engine in mass-produced cars here in 1970 and having resurrected the affordable sports car roadster with its 1990 Miata.
But this Japanese automaker—controlled in recent years by Ford—always was a step behind Japan's more conservative Toyota and Honda. That's partly because they're bigger than Mazda, but Mazda also would be larger if its vehicles had met with wider acceptance.
However, Mazda finally is picking up some ground, ending 2004 with higher U.S. sales than in the previous year and offering more attractive products.
One such vehicle is the Mazda6 sedan—introduced in 2003 to replace the automaker's rather bland 626. The Mazda6, which promptly was named one of the 10 best cars of 2003 by Car and Driver magazine, is supposed to battle cars such as the Toyota Camry and Honda Accord in the midsize car market—although the top-selling Camry and Accord models are more conservative.
The Mazda6 is practical, but is designed with an emphasis on sportiness in keeping with the automaker's "zoom-zoom" image, fostered by its go-go advertising. Mazda knew it couldn't compete with the Camry or Accord on refinement and that offering more power would only give it a temporary edge. Also, it knew that South Korean automakers could undercut it on price.
Dare to be Different
The general rule is that, the more trim levels you offer, the more vehicles you will sell. Both the hatchback and wagon, which are far more popular body styles in Europe than in America, share many parts with the sedan, so Mazda's move was a relatively low-cost investment.
Decently Equipped
Trim levels are i Base sedan, i Sport sedan and hatchback, i Grand Touring sedan, s Base wagon, s Sport sedan, hatchback and wagon and s Grand Touring sedan and wagon.
New Features
Also new are standard 17-inch alloy wheels (vs. 16-inchers) on Sport sedans and hatchback and wagon versions, along with a power driver's seat standard on Sport and Grand Touring versions.
A Bose audio system/tilt-slide glass sunroof package is newly standard on Grand Touring and optional on Base and Sport models. All Sport versions now have a body color front grille, spoiler and gray headlight bezels for a more aggressive look.
Safety features include front side torso and front/rear head-protecting side-curtain airbags for most models.
Two Engines
The 4-cylinder versions come with a 5-speed manual transmission or 4-speed automatic, while the V6 works with either the manual or the 6-speed automatic.
Both engines provide the most punch at high rpm levels, so off-the-line acceleration isn't very fast during normal takeoffs. However, the V6 versions are especially faster once underway.
The V6 wisks the $23,995 s Sport hatchback I tested from 0 to 60 mph in 7.4 seconds and provides fast merging and good 65-75 mph passing, although a downshift from fifth to fourth gear was needed for rapid passing.
Racy-Looking Sport Hatchback
Mazda6 buyers looking for the best fuel economy should opt for the 4-cylinder trim level with a manual gearbox because it delivers an estimated 23 mpg in the city and 31 on highways. The V6 with the manual provides 19 and 26, and does slightly better with the new automatic.
Long-Throw Clutch
The variable-assist power steering is quick and direct, although the car's turning circle is rather wide. Handling is in the sports sedan class with the available 17-inch wheels. And an all-independent suspension provides a supple ride. The brakes provide good stopping power and have good pedal feel.
Outside door handles are large for easy entry to the attractive interior, which has easily read gauges and a good number of storage areas. The supportive front bucket seats slide back a lot, and four to five tall adults comfortably fit in the interior, which is moderately quiet at highway speeds.
Some Confusing Controls
All versions have a 60/40 split-folding rear seat with releases in the cargo area that don't force you to open a rear door to use them. The large cargo area becomes very spacious when rear seatbacks are folded forward—especially in the hatchback.
While not as refined as top Japanese rivals, the Mazda6 is well worth considering. And there isn't much competition for the hatchback and station wagon versions.

In our Tweet Bag this week, we look at the Raptors' priorities at point guard, the fine line Bryan Colangelo has to walk in trade talks and what happens to the frontcourt rotation once everyone is healthy. As always, tweet me @timpchisholm if you have any questions that you want answered. ...more
Back in the summer, when the Toronto Raptors were still building around Andrea Bargnani and were looking ahead to a free agency pursuit of Steve Nash, a trade for Rudy Gay made a certain amount of sense. However, as TSN.ca's Tim Chisholm writes, circumstances have changed. ...more
We're back from the holidays with more Tweet Bag action! This week it's all about trades; trades that didn't happen, trades that could happen and what it would cost Toronto to make a trade happen. So, happy new year and enjoy this week's questions. ...more

In the short-term, what Jose Calderon has been giving the Raptors of late has been spectacular. Since Kyle Lowry injured his triceps, Calderon has provided the kind of leadership that has been sorely lacking from the roster all season and the team has won four straight in a fairly convincing fashion. Of course, long-term all of this is just about the worst thing that could happen to this club. ...more
In this week's Tweet Bag, we look at the fit between Terrence Ross and DeMar DeRozan, we touch on Bryan Colangelo's relationship with MLSE and we take a look back at the 2006 draft that netted the Raptors Andrea Bargnani. ...more
