Yemeni Akhdam, or servants, are similar to hereditary castes, but are distinguished by their Africa features and the menial jobs they perform. Widespread prejudice places the Akhdam at the bottom of Yemen's social ladder. (Photo: Reuters/Khaled Abdullah)

Dearest Readers of Sweet Eventide,
Last Friday, I realized that with my ode to Farm Fresh to You, I had hit my 1,000th post! All weekend, I've been trying to figure out how I want to celebrate this milestone. It occurred nearly 4 years and 6 months to the day from my first blog post: Just Start.

You're leaving Wedding Paper Divas to see the Deal of the Day at our parent site, Tiny Prints.
You won't be able to dismiss this by usual means (escape or click button), but you can close it programatically based on user choices or actions.
"These are for my daughters wedding, and She i s procrastinator. Could not make a decision on what she wanted. She saw these and made the decision on the spot !"
"We really liked the design on this card, but the colors in our picture were making it difficult for the words to show up well. Customer service was very quick (sometimes within a couple hours) to make the changes we requested and the card looked great. I was nervous about the paper quality, but they were very sturdy and durable. And the picture came out very clear. I would definitely recommend using this product. I am 100% satisfied with my whole experience and end product."
"We ordered these save the dates for our autumn wedding in 2015. When the magnets arrived we were speechless. They are a perfect size- not too big and not too small. The design is even more beautiful in person, and the magnets arrive in a classy black box. We have already gotten tons of compliments- and our order arrived two days before the expected delivery date. We could not be happier with our purchase."
"I wanted to send 'save the date' postcards and I was thrilled with all the options weddingpaperdivas.com had to offer. We chose the "Tea for Two" postcard because it offered several different color choices for the roses around the photo, one of which was yellow (my fiancee and I had a lovely picture of the two of us surround by yellow roses.) There were so many font options to chose from so we were able to design one that was just our style. Our friends and family absolutely loved it!"
"The cards were sturdy. They turned out just like what I saw on my computer. I was able to use my renewal colors for the words. Delivery was quicker then expected."

The Los Angeles Lakers fans got an early Christmas present with Steve Nash's return form fractured leg, but the point guard isn't feeling too lucky about his team and sees the they have a long-way to go to slide back into playoffs contention. That's why Steve Nash believes it's time for a change in course of action…the Los Angeles Lakers better be "desperate" for their next win when they face the New York Knicks at Staples Center on Christmas.
"Hopefully we can continue to win," Steve Nash stated after Monday's practice, on eve of Los Angeles Lakers Christmas showdown against the New York Knicks. "We've won four in a row and we can keep this going and put ourselves back in contention, but we should be a desperate team right now."
Ironically, the Los Angeles Lakers lost their last game on 13th December to the New York Knicks at Madison Square Garden. But that happened when the Los Angeles Lakers was missing All-Stars Steve Nash and Pau Gasol in the lineup. Pau Gasol was in the midst of an eight game absence due to knee tendinitis.
Riding on a four-game winning streak, the Los Angeles Lakers are still 13-14 (due to an early poor start in the season) and rank 11th in the Western Conference. It's hardly the picture the Los Angeles Lakers painted for their dream team, who could be looking at the playoffs form the outside if team doesn't pick up pace.
"I think we realize the position we're in. We can't drop games. We got to go out there and try to win every single game," said Steve Nash, "and go for wins instead of trying to adjust and figure out what we're doing. You got to win games and figure it out afterwards what transition this team needs."
Steve Nash' sense of urgency towards improving their playoffs run was also duly noted in a statement by Los Angeles Lakers' coach Mike D'Antoni.
"We need it more and we should be a little bit more desperate," said Mike D'Antoni, while referring to the success of his former team New York Knicks (20-7), who currently rank second in the Eastern Conference.
Kobe Bryant, who'll be playing his 15th Christmas Day game on Tuesday, didn't seem to have revenge on his mind stating that the only significance to the New York Knicks Christmas Day game was that it could extend the Los Angeles Lakers' winning-streak to five games.
"It's special for us because we need to string some wins together," said Kobe Bryant. "We got to get going here."
Steve Nash made a remarkable return with 12 points, nine assist as well as two steals in Los Angeles Lakers' 118-115 overtime win over the Golden State warriors, but he indicated Christmas Day game will come down to everyone's contribution.
"I think that's really the Achilles' heel is this roster, with all this talent, everyone trying to make a linear calculation of how good we should be," said Steve Nash, "and the point is we're not going to be the sum of our parts or more than the sum of our parts unless we do it together. So, we've all got to figure this out together."
"We've got to sacrifice and we've got to earn it every day."

Medusa definitely isn't going to win any beauty pageants. She and her Gorgon sisters, Euryale and Stheno, are totally revolting.

Strategic Behavior under Intertemporal Production Externalities
AbstractWe model the non-cooperative choice of levels of inputs whose current usage results in the future decline in their effectiveness. We show that there are multiple equilibria that are Pareto rankable. Compared with the social optimum, lack of cooperation implies excessive use of input, leading to excessively rapid rates of decline in effectiveness. The harm is more pronounced when firms use Markov perfect strategies, as compared with open-loop strategies. Nous modélisons le jeu de choix optimal d'un input dont l'usage diminue l'efficacité dans le futur. Nous démontrons qu'il y a des équilibres multiples que l'on peut comparer en utilisant le critère de supériorité à la Pareto. La perte d'efficacité est plus grave si les firmes adoptent des stratégies markoviennes au lieu des stratégies à boucle ouverte.

We are in the midst of a B2C innovation revolution. It has never been easier to launch a new product or service thanks to falling costs of development and deployment. And the market opportunity is limitless, as 7 billion people are increasingly within reach of digital technology. Several fast-growing, billion-dollar businesses like Facebook, Groupon, and Yelp are the result. No wonder VC funding of consumer information services was up 3x from Q4 '10 to Q4 '11 (Venture Beat).
But consumer innovation is new ground for most entrepreneurs and investors. Many investors have a history of creating and funding B2B and corporate technology startups, which is far from the general consumer marketplace. And entrepreneurs often rush a Minimum Viable Product to market to find only a trickle of early users.
As a result, many mistakes are being made. The actual cost of failed ideas and opportunity cost of wasted time is tragic. There is less and less VC money available (near a 10-year low today), and last year the average VC return was negative 4.6%. Founders and investors need better customer development feedback, earlier, in order to make better diligence and development decisions.
Research tools are out there, but few are designed for startups' use. Large companies have used concept testing services to improve the odds of success for years, but they are built for traditional products and services rather than digital innovation. Online survey tools are available, but they leave entrepreneurs to create questions and interpret results on their own.
We longed for a better way to make investment decisions and assist entrepreneurs, so we created the Minimum Viable Concept Test to bring smart customer development research with a price, speed and understanding that matches startups' needs.

Although we have the illusion of receiving high-resolution images from our eyes, what the optic nerve actually sends to the brain is just outlines and clues about points of interest in our visual field. We then essentially hallucinate the world from cortical memories that interpret a series of extremely low-resolution movies that arrive in parallel channels.– Ray Kurzweil in The Singularity is Near, referencing Roska and Werblin's article in Nature 'Vertical Interactions Across Ten Parallel, Stacked Representations in the Mammalian Retina' (March 29, 2001)

What Is A Pulsar?
Pulsars are the products of colossal star explosions. When a star about ten times the size of our Sun dies, it undergoes an ejection of its "mantle" in a great supernova explosion, leaving the highly magnetized and compressed nucleus of the star behind. The nucleus left behind may become what you see above—a pulsar; a rotating neutron star.
Although pulsars are only about the size of a city, pulsars are incredibly dense, possibly having as much material as our Sun. Pulsars don't actually "pulsate", rather, they appear to pulsate due to what is known as the "lighthouse effect". Huge beams of radiation are ejected from the magnetic axis of the pulsar. These glaring emissions are only visible to us when they are pointed straight at the earth, giving the pulsar an appearance of pulsation.
One of the most impressive facts about pulsars is that, because of their incredible density, their rotational periods are extremely swift and extremely precise. Most pulsar rotational periods are anywhere from a few seconds to a few milliseconds!

Can you be too young to fall in love?
Do you think you can be too young to fall in love? I ask this because when I was 14 I fell in love with a girl and adults told me I was too young to fall in love and all that BUT who are they to tell me what I love? Nobody can define love. Nobody can see what you see in a person. In my eyes and reality I was in love with this girl or what I believed to be love at that moment in time. They didn't know what I was seeing or feeling. Why else would they say 'love is blind?
Let me hear your thoughts, do you think you can be too young to fall in love? Remember love is not just towards a person.
Oh and if you're interested in what happened - Me and the girl was together for nearly 4 years and split on a mutual decision as we was completely different people over the years, but I still love her, not in a sexual way but in a friendly way. Love is strange. Young or old.
wayne uejio 30+Nov 28 2013: No, but as many have pointed out, people change over time and relationship must change to match the change. Can it last for a long time? Yes. I had 2 friends that met in 1st grade and were always together. They were married at 18 and celebrated their 50th anniversary last year. The wife died of cancer this year and the husband died a month later.
Steve CNov 30 2013: Someone once said, "Falling in love is easy; but staying in love is something very special." Yes, usually it takes a few, or several, tries before they start to figure things out.
Love can hit pretty-dang hard. If you're not a balanced person, it can knock you out! (Or it can knock you back into balance - funny-thing, love!)
Nov 25 2013: Josh, The word "love" has been given a bad rap. Love your parents, love that song, love a soda, love, love, love ... At 14 your hormones were starting to run amok ... your association with "older" people ... boys "locker room" talk ... first looks at "those" magazines ...a combination of all of these things make it tough on a young man.
Your never to young or to old to fall in love .... but the type of love is different for all ages and situations. After a few cold ones at the local bar on the weekend ... it is most likely lust rather than love.
I once read about a test for love: Lock your "love" girlfriend in a closet and your dog in another closet. After a couple of hours let them both out ... which one is glad to see you? DISCLAIMER: Do not do this .... LOL.
I wish you well. Bob.
Sean Brother 20+
Nov 25 2013: I fell in love with my aunt's best girlfriend when I was 11 years old. I remember that she used to let me carry her duffel bag while returning from dance school and I felt ecstatic. I could never explain to her that I seriously wanted to marry her. That was one love.
At 17 I fell for a catholic girl, who reciprocated the feeling. However she thought that she could marry only someone of her faith. The girl died of gum cancer when she was 20. That was another love.
I am living with my partner of 24 years now. This is another love.
Its like watching sun at dawn, noon and afternoon. all splendid, all same sun but all so different.
You can fall in love at any age you love to.
Yijia ChenNov 25 2013: I don't know,i personally didn't had that experience.
But i do think that you don't get that sense of responsibility until you becomes an adult.Even some adults today are still not mature enough to care for others,still called "kidults".
I am 17 and i haven't fell in love before,am i too old to fall in love?
greg dahlen 50+
Nov 27 2013: thanks, Lejan .. Well, I suppose we could call the feelings of another person trivial, but we would also want to marshal the evidence as to why we believe their feelings are trivial, and present this evidence to them and give them a chance to respond to it, and have a dialogue. But we would have to be very careful about forcing them to do anything, for instance, if a parent tries to force their child to stay away from another child who they are in love with, that is a more significant decision.
Nov 30 2013: Love can never be understood, but can be lived. Love is a state of mind of pure perception, where perceptual distortions are not present. But that is hard to do because as soon as we label experiences, we immediately distort them in mainly 2 ways: desirable and undesirable. We pursue the desirable and avoid the undesirable. One is called excitement, the other is called anxiety. Both are emotional, distorted states. Love is an affinity to all life and living things, and is a state of absolute freedom from fear. When one is free from fear, one loses the self-conscious state and all the barriers that the self-conscious state carries, disappear. Then there is Light, which is pure perception. Now, faling in love, is falling into the state of desireless state of pure perception. Is one young or old to do that? Or am I misunderstanding the question?
June Kim
Nov 27 2013: I think that the love you feel, or think you feel, at 14 is different than the one you feel at 18, 22 or 45. all are different. I think you need to experience that first love at whatever age to get past it to a more mature and realistic love. But too young? I don't think you are too young to fall in love...I just think you're too young to feel the kind of love that you think you are feeling, the kind you see "grown ups" feeling.
Nov 25 2013: "Falling in love" is a short-term hormonal condition (endorphin overdose) accompanied by focus on a specific individual. It might be possible at any age. It is also a very stupid reason upon which to base any life decisions, since it always, without exception, disappears. Long-term interpersonal relationships are generally not possible for a human brain until adolescence has finished.

i've been thinking of doing this for a while now. after i saw this floating around, i wanted to make my own version to hang on my wall. and knowing me, well, i had to make it all ~shnazzy~ so i made this 11x17 poster. i made it so you can download yourself one too, if you like. it's a nice PDF file so you can take that to Kinko's and blow it up and hang it nicely in your room or whateva.
Something is rotten in the state of iOS icons. More and more, I've been noticing app icons with good ideas behind them, pretty solid execution for the most part, and one hair-raising screwup practically designed to get the goats of oversensitive designers such as myself. These are some apps I just…
Let's say you're working on an icon for an iOS app. The app is universal, so it should run on all iPhones (and iPod touches), and on the iPad. As a designer, you're used to drawing icons at various sizes; this is a big part of what "icon design" is (as opposed to other types of illustration).

Dear Irene,
About six months ago, my BFF of 10 years, Penny, confided that she was having an affair with our mutual close friend, Amy's, husband. Our families are all friends and her burdening me with this information was extremely difficult for me. I was torn between my promise of secrecy to Penny (with whom I was much closer than Amy) and with my wanting to tell Amy what was going on. I knew about the affair for two weeks before they were caught. During that time, I was shocked at the lying, backstabbing and deceitful behavior I witnessed by Penny toward Amy.
Penny's husband found out about the affair. Amy was devastated (she has 4 kids) and I was so sad for her. Penny and her lover decided to leave their respective marriages to be together. In the immediate days after the affair came out, I supported Penny. I watched her kids, listened to her and did everything a BFF should do.
Amy was very upset with me and I understood. Amy and I talked during this time and I started to realize that I was supporting the wrong friend. Although I originally felt loyal to Penny, I started to realize I couldn't support what she was doing to Amy.

Renault Megane RS265 Trophy 2012 Review
It's not often you have the police to thanks for an insanely quick car being made even quicker. In this case it's the French Gendarmes who requested a rapid response vehicle with a minimum of 265 horsepower. Renault obliged by taking its existing RS250 and squeezing another 15 horsepower out of it. That makes a total of 265hp or 195kW to you new-school hipsters.
So we said 'merci' to the Frenchies and took the Megane RS265 for a strop around the more twisty roads just out of Auckland. The fact that this car has done a lap of 8 minutes 8 seconds around Nurburgring will not be lost on you the first time you Continue reading "Renault Megane RS265 Trophy 2012 Review" »
ZOE The Affordable Electric Car
Renault has launched an affordable electric car, ZOE, at the Geneva Motor Show. It will go on sale in the UK – and other European markets – later this year.
ZOE features six world firsts and 60 patents in its ground breaking technology.
Designed from the ground up as an electric vehicle, ZOE packs the industry's most advanced technology, including no fewer than six 'world premiere' features designed to deliver user-friendliness, range and connectivity.
No decision has been made as to whether ZOE will be launched in New Zealand as any infra structure for electric vehicles is only in its infancy.
ZOE comes in the wake of the status-enhancing Fluence Z.E. saloon, Kangoo Van Z.E. (both launched in 2011) and the innovative urban runabout Twizy to make Zero Emission mobility a reality for ordinary motorists – one of the pledges of Renault's 'Drive the Change' signature.
Through its 'Renault 2016 – Drive the Change' plan, and thanks to its growing range of electric vehicles, along with work on its internal combustion engines, Renault has made a commitment to reduce its global carbon footprint by 10 per cent by 2013, and by a further 10 per cent between 2013 and 2016. The fruit of this strategy can now be seen on the street.
Renault's new design strategy is now visible with ZOE's new front-end styling signature.
"ZOE will be the spearhead of the Renault Z.E. range and the version on show at Geneva represents the model's final design. In addition to its compact size, attractive styling and affordable price tag, it showcases Renault's technological excellence when it comes to electric vehicles. ZOE also heralds the beginning of a new era of electric mobility for all and confirms our commitment to electric vehicles. It marks an important step for Renault which has a 110-year history of making major innovations a concrete reality for ordinary motorists." Carlos Ghosn, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer, Renault
Zoe will be the first mass-market electric vehicle with a range of more than 200 kms. It is equipped as standard with 'Range OptimiZEr, a system designed to improve real-world range under all driving conditions. For example, in suburban use the owner will achieve between 100 and 150 kms.
Zoe is the first electric vehicle capable of being charged at any level of power from 3 kWs to 43 kWs – in between 30 minutes and nine hours – thanks to the Chameleon charger.
It is the first electric vehicle to enable the massive roll-out of fast-charging stations, which are easier and up to four times cheaper for local governments and it is the first Renault vehicle to be presented with Renault R-Link, a multimedia system featuring a seven-inch touch screen tablet, navigation and connected services.
Zoe's price is comparable to that of a diesel-engined city car in markets where tax incentives are available, as low as UK13,650 sterling with tax incentives. Even in countries where tax incentives are not currently available, prices for ZOE are still attractive. In Switzerland, ZOE's catalogue price is 22,800 Swiss francs with no Government support for electric or hybrid vehicles.
In the UK, monthly battery hire costs from $NZ140 (14,500 kms/36 month contract), inclusive of comprehensive breakdown assistance (which covers flat batteries).
More than 60 patents have been filed for ZOE's design. Range, interactivity and occupant wellbeing are at the core of its innovations.
In terms of autonomy, Renault has developed the 'Range OptimiZEr', which combines three major innovations (new-generation regenerative braking, a heat pump and MICHELIN EnergyTM E-V tyres).
New-generation regenerative braking recovers practically all of the energy otherwise wasted during braking, without any significant impact on ZOE's on-road dynamics. The car offers a smooth drive with no jarring electric motor braking. The system works in two ways:
- The kinetic energy produced under deceleration and braking is recovered by the motor so that it can be converted into electricity to charge the battery. This feature is also fitted to Fluence Z.E. and Kangoo Z.E.
- When the driver presses the brake pedal, the system intelligently distributes the braking effort between applying the brake pads and the electric motor brake with a view to maximising the use of the electric motor brake and charging of the battery.
The heat pump provides excellent thermal comfort without detracting from the vehicle's range. This system, which operates in the same way as reverse-cycle air-conditioning, consumes very little electricity. It produces warm or cool air by simply reversing the cycle of operation. The heat pump generates approximately 2kW of cooling or 3kW of heat with just 1kW of electricity. The cabin temperature is also more constant since it is not affected by the heat given off by the motor.
The MICHELIN EnergyTM E-V tyre is a Michelin innovation co-developed with Renault as a world premiere for ZOE. The tyre features enhanced energy efficiency to maximise vehicle range. Its rubber compound, tread design and sidewalls have been engineered to withstand ZOE's high torque and address the specific demands of electric vehicles, yet it still delivers the same safety and handling performance as all other Michelin tyres. Available in 15- and 16-inch versions, this tyre is fitted to all ZOE models as core equipment.
ZOE is the only electric vehicle to feature the Chameleon charger. Patented by Renault, this charger is compatible with all power levels up to 43kW. Charging batteries at a charging station can take between 30 minutes and nine hours. For example, ZOE can be charged in an hour at 22kW. This intermediate power level extends battery life and puts less pressure on the power grid than the fast-charging of batteries at 43kW.
The Chameleon charger allows fast-charging at charging stations at quarter of the cost.
ZOE is the first Renault vehicle to feature R-Link, Renault's brand-new integrated, connected multimedia system. To enable drivers to control its functions without taking their eyes off the road, R-Link features a large seven-inch display, steering wheel-mounted controls and voice recognition. It also delivers integrated connectivity with motoring services and applications available from the R-Link Store. When released, R-Link Store will offer more than 50 applications adapted for life on the move thanks to an active partnership with application developers. These apps will be downloadable directly inside the car or via owners' My Renault account.
R-Link also includes a host of new functions dedicated to electric driving and range management: tracking of energy consumption, display of energy flows and pre-programming of battery charging. The navigation system offers bespoke services such as a display of the vehicle's operating radius based on the range remaining in the battery, suggestions for the most energy-efficient itineraries and the location of nearby battery charging stations (depending on country), as well as their real-time availability. R-Link also lets drivers view their eco-driving performance and improve their technique with 'eco-scoring' and tips (general and personalised).
Driving ZOE is a unique experience which gives new meaning to the term 'driving pleasure'. The synchronous electric motor with rotor coil has a power output of 65kW and instantly delivers maximum torque of 220Nm. Acceleration and pull-away are responsive from low speeds. Driving is more relaxing thanks to the silent ride and smooth, gearshift-free acceleration.
For stress-free driving in built-up areas, ZOE is fitted with 'Z.E. Voice', an alarm which warns pedestrians that the vehicle is approaching. 'Z.E. Voice' can be heard from 1 to 18 mph and was the subject of special design work to create a bespoke sound identity for ZOE. The driver can choose between three different sounds, while it is possible to turn off the warning system by simply pressing a button.
Programmable pre-conditioning heats or cools ZOE's cabin when the vehicle is charging. There are two benefits for the system. Firstly, when the driver gets into the car the cabin is just the right temperature and secondly, it removes the need to use up battery charge.
An activated charcoal cabin air filter traps most bad smells and pollutants. It also filters substances just a few microns in size, such as pollen and soot.
Like all electric vehicles, ZOE emits no CO2, NOx, CO or fine particles. It also signals the loss of unpleasant smells and 'engine' noise during road use. Well-to-wheel CO2 emissions depend on the energy-generation mix of each country. Emissions total 62 g/km of CO2 in Europe, versus 89 g/km for the new Toyota Prius. They are even lower in France at just 12 g/km of CO2.
ZOE complies with the very latest criteria required to qualify for the Renault eco² signature. It is manufactured at Renault's ISO 14001-certified factory at Flins, France.
As required by Renault's eco-friendly hallmark, its CO2 emissions are less than 120g/km. ZOE is 85 per cent recyclable, while nine per cent of the plastic it contains is sourced from recycling.

Renault 5 for Monte
A trio of Renault 5 Alpines will contest this year's Rallye Monte-Carlo Historique to start the celebrations marking the car's 40th anniversary.
The cars have been purposely prepared for the event and will be driven by Frenchmen Jean Ragnotti who was second on the 1978 Monte Carlo Rally in a 5 Alpine, Alain Serpaggi and Manu Guigou. All three cars will start the rally from Reims.
This year, Renault is celebrating the 40th anniversary of the Renault 5, which notched up total sales of five million cars in the course of its career. The diminutive French hatchback will be in the spotlight throughout 2012, and celebrations will kick off with the presence of three original, Renault-entered Renault 5 Alpines on the 2012 Rallye Monte-Carlo Historique.
The three cars have been specially prepared for the Monegasque event by Renault Classic. They were entirely stripped and carefully rebuilt as a function of the challenge that awaits them along the 2,500km route.
Emmanuel Guigou, the 2008 French Gravel Rally Championship runner-up who is more accustomed to the Group N4 Megane R.S. than the 'R5 Alpine'.
Alain Serpaggi, a former test driver with Alpine who has an impressive, eclectic record in motorsport.
Jean Ragnotti will drive the same car (N°19) which he steered to second place overall on the 1978 Rallye Monte-Carlo. That landmark performance for the driver and his diminutive front-wheel drive car was backed up by a podium finish for Guy Fréquelin who came third on the same event.
Technical Data:
- Engine: four cylinders in-line, 1,397cc,
- Transmission: front-wheel drive, five-speed gearbox + reverse
- Brakes: discs all-round
- Length: 3.56m / Width: 1.52m / Weight: 870kg
- Top speed: approximately 190kph
Renault Megane 2011 Review
Much like celebrities Kim Kardashian and Jennifer Lopez, Renault's Megane became well known for the shapely figure of its behind. This characteristic defined the second generation of Renault's volume-selling hatchback. Butt now the Megane is back for its third edition and after shedding some pounds it's sporting a sleeker, leaner look. Pitted as a genuine contender against the benchmark VW Golf, the Megane has a lot to prove here in NZ. It's arrived here a couple of years after debuting in Europe but the Megane may be the vehicle to advance Renault's place in the consciousness of kiwi car buyers. Car and SUV got some seat-time in a Megane hatchback and found out why.
Exterior Styling – No junk in the Trunk
The chunky back end of its predecessor is gone but it's still no waif at the rear. Wrap-around two-piece taillights and a curved rear windscreen add visual width. Away from the famous derriere, the Megane has a strong look and although highly styled remains fairly sedate for a French hatch. Prominent front guards and muscular rear haunches give it a dynamic stance, and unique touches include thick plastic trim on the bottom of the doors and a deeply creased bonnet. The look is finished with colour-coded mirror caps, silver door handles and front fog lamps. Standard wheel fitment is a 16-inch 5-spoke alloy that has a chunky appeal but falls short of completely filling the cavernous guards. Overall, the Megane is an elegant looker, it may not appeal to those who like their French styling extreme but it won't polarize opinion like its predecessor.

Pay Attention, It's Time For A French Lesson
The more – and almost certainly even the less – observant amongst you will have noticed that over the last few weeks there have been more than a few tenuous links made between rugby and motoring in this column. And as the biggest match in New Zealand rugby since 1987 is being played out in Auckland's own theatre of dreams this weekend, it would be all too easy to find one more pretty loose tie-in between the unlikely bedfellows that are egg chasing and motoring.
And so, therefore, I will.
But rather than dwelling too heavily on the sport itself, my focus is rather more on one of the participants in Sunday night's encounter – the French. As a previous inhabitant of the Northern shores of La Manche, I learned a long time ago that the only thing that could be expected from the French with any degree of certainty is the unexpected.
Nowhere is this more certain than in the motoring world, where no-one could ever be sure if their next release was going to be a work of beauty, genius, madness or just plain badness. Sometimes, as was the case with the massively opinion polarising 2CV, they managed to do all four at once. Just for the sheer hell of it I suspect.
This is the nation that can give the Citroen DS with one hand – a vehicle of such unquestionable beauty that it makes you wonder why all cars cannot be styled in such a way – and then take it all back again with a monstrosity like the Renault Fuego with the other. But just to keep a sense of mystery, excitement and intrigue in the relationship, every so often they throw you a Peugeot 205 GTi. Followed rather quickly by a Renault Safrane.
Yet for all their little highs and lows, if you ever needed the ultimate proof that our garlic obsessed cousins are capable of crushing the world when it is least expected, look no further than the Bugatti Veyron. Yes, it sounds Italian and yes, a lot of the bits come from parent company VW, but hailing as it does from Molsheim in the Alsace, the Bugatti is every bit as French as impassive shrugging and baguettes. With its roots back in 2005, when the Gallic automotive output was typified by the blandest Peugeots in living memory, the Veyron was a stark reminder that when the Frenchies put their minds to it, they can not only take on the world, but simply blow it away with their effortless style. Continue reading "Pay Attention, It's Time For A French Lesson" »
Renault Koleos Phase 2 arrives in NZ this month
Renault's new-look Koleos compact crossover arrives in NZ later this month with fresh styling and an updated equipment list.
The Koleos Phase 2 represents the first significant facelift for Renault's inaugural compact SUV since it was originally launched in late 2008.
The Koleos is an important model in the NZ Renault range since the franchise was reinvigorated early this year. "The mix of models – 2WD and 4WD and both petrol and diesel engines has given the market a value for money choice," said Stephen Kenchington, General Manager of Renault New Zealand.
The most popular model in NZ has been the 4WD Koleos with CVT transmission and standard leather upholstery and remains available as a free upgrade for $43,990.
Design changes on the Koleos Phase 2 include a revised interior and a new-look front-end that takes styling cues from Renault's other Korean produced models, the Fluence and Latitude sedans. There's a more rounded front bumper and all-new bonnet and front quarter panels that wrap around narrower headlights and a more traditional six-sided, three-bar chromed grille.
Inside, the Koleos will feature new seat upholsteries and interior trims, while the dashboard has been revised with a more contemporary instrument panel housing and lighting. Continue reading "Renault Koleos Phase 2 arrives in NZ this month" »

Just saw what I would argue is the most important film of 2011. ProPublica explains why.
Currently six, "all on the International Space Station." Twelve more astronauts are scheduled to go during 2012, and China will be sending its first taikonauts to the Tiangong experimental space station it launched last year.
"Glory," the Jay-Z track released two days after the birth of daughter Blue Ivy Carter, has debuted at number 74 on Billboard's chart of the top 100 R&B/Hip-Hop Songs in the country.
Because the song is credited to "Jay-Z, featuring B.I.C" and includes baby Carter cooing just a few minutes after birth, this makes Beyoncé and Jay-Z's daughter the youngest person ever to chart in Billboard history.
I don't think we're ready for this jelly…

behind the business: viva la thrifty ( + a giveaway! )
Hi Folks! I'm here with the second installment of our Behind the Business section here at CLC. Last time, we brought you a look at Claire Sommers Buck, a local metalsmith and jewelry crafter. This month I spoke to Malori from Viva La Thrifty, a brand new antique and vintage apparel store in the Riverside area of Jacksonville.
Name: Malori Rodriguez
Business: Viva La Thrifty, Inc
Hometown: Jacksonville, Florida
Neighborhood in Jax: Riverside (King Street District)
Favorite Artist: I couldn't pick. I get inspiration from everyone.
Favorite Restaurant: I can't stop eating shrimp tacos from Lola's Burrito Joint.
Favorite Coffee Shop: Sweet Theory Baking Co.
What were you doing before you pursued your current job? Working at Mellow Mushroom in Atlanta.. Using every ounce of free time scouring Georgia for vintage goodies.
What inspired you to open a vintage shop? My grandparents sold antiques, so it's always been a huge part of my life. It's really about passion for me. Nothing makes me happier than hunting for vintage treasure all over the southeast. I enjoy both the hunt and the find, I never get bored doing it. Opening a vintage shop was the only way I could make a living doing what truly makes me happy. Plus, I love finding vintage treasures a new home, so they can be appreciated for generations.
What sets your store apart from the rest? I guess the best way to answer that question would be my unique taste. My boyfriend, Nate Futral, is my business partner, he helps in finding things that are aesthetically pleasing for men and I find the more female-oriented pieces. It's hard to find a shop like ours where couples can shop together and find things they both like.
You deal with antiques and vintage finds on a daily basis (something that greatly excites the CLC girls!); but does the business side of things interrupt the fun sometimes? You have your good days and your bad days with any business. Some days I go on perpetual shopping spree and some days I spend hours filling out paperwork. I wouldn't say one interrupts the other; it's just what's necessary to keep the shop's doors open.
How do you juggle the whole work/life balance issue while running your own business? Running your own business, especially in the beginning stages is a 24/7 gig. I force myself to take at least one day a week off and catch up things around the house or go see a movie.
What is your favorite creative outlet? How do you "recharge"? I love going to the library and reading vintage and antique books. It's quiet in there and it allows me to concentrate. Plus drinking a glass of wine and reading new posts by my favorite vintage bloggers is a great outlet.
What is your favorite item at your store right now? My favorite piece is definitely this gorgeous 1960's credenza we have right now. It's so hard for me not to take it home.
Do you have any advice for people like yourself who want to pursue their creative desires as a profession? It takes a lot of passion. You are going to have many sleepless nights, early mornings and you often have to take your work home with you. Plus, if it's your own creative business, you often have to sacrifice your personal profits for the betterment of your business. But it's a small price to pay to spend every day doing what you love.
Well put, Malori!
To celebrate their opening, Malori and Nate were happy to do a giveaway with us! Check out this precious dining set that Malori styled for one lucky winner! {could be YOU!} The sets consists of six owl & flower patterned place mats, a milk ware vase and the sweetest little serving dish. Perfect for your next dinner party! {be sure to invite us!}
Please comment and/or share on twitter ( + leave a comment for each ) before Tuesday, February 12th at 12:00 a.m. EST to enter to win. We love stories, so tell us about your favorite vintage item in your home! The winner will be announced February 13th. Consider it an early Valentine's gift!
If you are in Jacksonville this Saturday you should stop by Viva La Thrifty because they will be open late from 7:30-9:00pm for Ella Meets Vintage, a combined event featuring the modern women's clothing and accessories of Ella Lane in the setting of the amazing vintage finds of Viva La Thrifty. For more information, check out their facebook event page.

When I tell someone that I am a mediator, they often ask, "Are you an attorney?" I find this question very interesting, especially because mediation was meant to be an alternative to the courtroom and legal system. That is why it is a form of Alternative Dispute Resolution (ADR). Most attorneys are hard working individuals who want to help people solve their problems, however, they are working within a field that prevents communication between disputing parties.
Legal training teaches attorneys how to efficiently construct a case, put together facts, weigh the facts against previous court rulings, and then develop a case theme to persuade a judge or jury that their client's view of the situation is correct. Outside of a very specific type of training called collaborative law, the legal system is not set up for communication, conversation, or dialogue. In fact, once a client hires an attorney, they are often advised not to speak to the other side, which is a smart legal maneuver.
Dr. Z's goal is NOT to replace litigation or condescend attorneys but to educate and encourage people that there are multiple options for solving a conflict. There are many effective attorney-mediators, but there are others who act more like attorneys than neutral mediators. This is not appropriate for clients who want and need to communicate with one another.
In Dr. Z's research on mediation, attorneys have stated, "I didn't know that was what your client wanted." This is because they work in such an adversarial system. It is not an insult to attorneys but rather an objective fact about the nature of their industry. Cross examination, depositions, discovery, and the physical structure of a courtroom all convey an oppositional approach to solving issues. A legal solution to conflict can also get very expensive very quickly.
Dr. Z suggests that there are at least three parts to any major disagreement: personal identity, operational decisions (how to move forward), and legal constraints. He always encourages his clients to seek legal counsel but reminds them that there are other parts of the conflict that mediation can better address. In short, he dispels common myths that people hold about the courtroom, such as judges allowing each person to "tell their side of the story" for as long as they please. In courtrooms, attorneys do the talking and clients do the listening.
Dr. Z is an Assistant Professor of Speech Communication at Southern Illinois University Edwardsville who understands the complexities involved with how people create and share meanings. His research sheds light on the difficulties associated with the process of conflict communication. He is a communication process expert who knows how to connect with people and make them feel comfortable. He does NOT provide legal advice but does facilitate effective conversations so that people can move on with their lives. In conjunction with legal counsel, the style of mediation at MCS paints a holistic picture of a conflict and disposes of any potential misunderstandings.

I'm working in a project to display the status and activation time of several digital inputs in a webserver based in an Arduino UNO + Ethernet shield + RTC module.
The problem I have is that the SRAM of the Arduino UNO gets easily full due to the "client.print" command line sed to display the data in the webserver. Because of this, I am currently analysing the possibility of programming a webserverd stored in the Ethernet shiled's SD card, inspired in the TinyWebServer.
The question I have is how to send Arduino data to the webserver without using the "client.print" comand line. Any suggestion to start?
(I'm not a HTML or Java expert)
Thank you very much.
