Much like her soaring pop tune 'Roar' scared off the competition upon its debut (namely Lady Gaga's 'Applause'), Katy Perry's Hot 100 dominance shows no signs of cooling if the sales performance of 'Rise' – her latest single – is any indication.
Released the same day as Britney Spears' highly anticipated new single, 'Make Me (ft. G-Eazy),' Perry's Olympic-inspired tune certainly lived up to its title, not only giving rise to a friendly competition between her fans (#KatyCats) and Spears' (#BritneyArmy), but also rising to the occasion with strong sales and streaming.
Curious to see exactly where the ladies landed on the refreshed Hot 100? Find out below:

ESPN will partner with LA2015 to broadcast the 2015 Special Olympics World Summer Games.
The two parties announced the agreement on Wednesday.
Per the agreement, ESPN will broadcast the Games' opening and closing ceremonies, daily competition, nightly highlights and other cultural activities.
"ESPN's legacy of work with Special Olympics and our shared values of athletes first, unity, competition and overcoming adversity among others, strengthen the foundation of these World Games as a global celebration of the courage, determination and joy of our athletes," LA2015 president and chief executive officer Patrick McClenahan said in a statement.
The 2015 Special Olympics World Summer Games will be the first held in the United States in 16 years. Los Angeles has previously hosted the Summer Olympic Games twice -- 1932 and 1984.
The Special Olympics, founded in 1968, offers "year-round sports training and athletic competition in a variety of Olympic-type sports for children and adults with intellectual disabilities," according to the organization's mission statement.

I haven't done this kind of thing in ages, despite many tags, but I think I'll do this one at least, especially considering I haven't been very open lately on this site like I used to.
Tagged by
The Rules
1. You have to post ALL the Rules.
2. Each person has to share 13 things about themselves.
3. Answer 13 questions asked to you and invent 13 questions the people you tag will have to answer.
4. Choose 13 people.
5. You have to legitimately tag 13 people.
6. You CAN'T say you don't do tags.
7. Tag-backs are ALLOWED.
8. YOU MUST MAKE A JOURNAL ENTRY! NO COMMENTS! Unless you're talking ABOUT the entry.
9. You have to finish within a week. If you don't finish in time, you have to do whatever the creator tells you.
10. Be creative with the title. No " I got tagged" stuff.
The Facts about Ally
1. I love Kung Fu movies. I saw Crouching Tiger Hidden Dragon for the first time recently and ahhhh it was so good! I still need to watch more, but I've always been a fan of Jackie Chan. Always.
2. I'm in second year of a BA Degree in Fine Art.
3. I also graduated last year from a separate college (though within the same Uni) with a HND in Contemporary Art Practice.
4. I still have my GameCube and GameBoy...well, I had my GameCube but my sister wanted to borrow it for a while.
5. I have too many action figures and cuddly toys even as an adult. Most likely get more in future.
6. I love painting. I really should do it more often but paint costs money.
7. My favourite comics are Bone, Beast of Burden, Hellboy and Ms Marvel Kamala Khan.
8. Shamelessly ships poly ships like hell.
9. I want to visit America one day but I'm also a really anxious traveller.
10. I once told the best ghost story ever at a school camping trip just by plagiarising the hell out of a story from Grisly Tales for Gruesome Kids.
11. I really want a cat again, but my landlord doesn't allow pets.
12. When I first moved in to my new flat, my neighbour would tell me a new fact every time I saw him. Did you know Buckingham Palace has over 700 bathrooms and toilets?
13. One of my favourite shows ever is Brooklyn Nine-Nine. There is litterally not a bad episode ever. Every episode is funny as hell, always has great characters and every main character are always doing something in each episode. GO. WATCH. NOW.
1. Did you have a phase you regret ever having? Chipmunks....oh god why?
2. Was there something, like a show or a band, that helped you get through a rough spot in your life? I didn't really have any rough periods, I just remember certain bits and pieces. When I found my sister's guinea pig suddenly dead (she was on a lambing trip at the time so I had to look after him and his brother and the rabbit and to this day, I'm not sure what killed him) I watched the new Doctor Who and that helped a little. When our puppy died in an accident, I just drowned my sorrows in cheesy pop songs. More recently, I was feeling just so down about nothing so I found one of Adam Hills stand up shows online and it was so uplifting! If you ever feel sad, find "Happism" by Adam Hills. One of the best stand up shows ever!
3. Did you ever hate on something that ended up loving now? Not so much hating but I was dismissive of Power Rangers for a while.
4. What's your guilty-pleasure movie? I personally don't believe in guilty pleasures, if you enjoy something, why the hell should you feel bad about it? But having said that, the Bratz live action movie is so terrible, its one of my faves. I freaking love it.
5. Is there something that you know for a fact you will never ever do? Get pregnant. No no no no no no nonononononononononono noooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo. I'll be the crazy aunt instead. If the parents want grandkids, they're not having any from me!
6. What was your very first oc? Ohhhhhh, man so many! I was into magical girl/magic chosen one type shows when I was little so a lot of self inserts. I remember making a team of elemental warriors, similar too W.I.T.C.H. I might have those drawing around somewhere...
7. What got you interested in doing art? I've always loves drawing. It didn't require answers or deep thinking (at least as a child anyway) it was just all you and pencil and paper. So I suppose my hatred of maths and writing.
8. What's your guilty-pleasure song? Again, don't believe in guilty pleasures but I suppose some cheesy late 90s/early 00s pop, like Bump in the Night by AllStars
9. What do you tend to listen to when you're working on your artwork? When I'm working on my college work, Finnish Heavy Metal, those being Lordi, Battle Beast and Nightwish.
10. What are your fictional crushes? The main cast from Power Rangers (did I mention I'm a fan?) Dino Charge! Especially Tyler, Ivan and Shelby!
12. How would you describe your sense of humor? Sarcastic, dry, sometimes social commentary, not really that funny so I feel great joy when someone laughs at my jokes. Not so much when people take it seriously and say I'm so opinionated when I was just making a dumb joke, DAD! URGH.
13. If you could change one thing about your appearance, what would it be and why? My hair. I'm trying to grow it out again, but it looks like a mop and I really need to get rid of my side fringe. It's just terrible. I'm sick of having it short. Then again, I'll be soon sick of it long in a few years me thinks...
Ally Questions You!
1. Hobbies?
2. What kind of person where you in High School?
3. Do you collect anything in particular?
4. Any favourite animated movies and why is it your fave?
5. Do you play video games?
6. Ever been abroad from your country before?
7. Tell me about one of your friends without mentioning their name.
8. Tell me about one of your OTPs.
9. Favourite artists?
10. Do you have any weird traditions where you come from?
11. What do you believe in?
12. Birthday?
13. Do you still have that one toy you were attached to when you were little?
i don't care what the rules say, I'm not tagging so tough!

Writing a good reverb is much harder (ask http://www.lexiconpro.com) 3) Freeverb3 VST works well on Windows, but there's 6 different builds, each containing 8 different plug-ins. It's not just a simple drop in replacement for GVerb - would we want one of the plate reverbs, or one of the tank reverbs or perhaps the allpass loop reverb? The convolution reverb sounds terrific and they have some nice IRs available, Steve

Chapter 2
RACHEL CAME DOWN from her room on the second floor after she heard the commotion downstairs.
She ran down and asked David, "What happened, what was all the noise about?"
"There were three people who came and said that they were your friends, and then these two showed up…"
"Nice to meet you, Rachel. I'm Gavin, and this is my girlfriend Maria. We live next door, and we know them, they are bad people who always cause trouble for new single girls."
"Nice to meet you! Come in please!" said Rachel.
David glanced at Rachel with a look that said he did not want them to come in, to his relief they turned down the invitation.
"Oh, no, thank you, we just live next door, maybe you can come to our house instead?"
"Sure, I would like that" Rachel replied happily. But David said that he could not go because he had a lot of work to do, he needed to finish his new novel.
Rachel went with the young couple to their house. It was the same size as hers, even the decorations were almost the same.
"Want something to drink?" asked Maria.
"Yes, please!"
"Coffee or juice?"
"Black coffee, please!"
Rachel was invited to sit on the couch and Maria handed her a cup of coffee.
"Thank you!" Rachel said.
"Do you know who those three people are?" Maria asked Rachel.
"Yeah, but, how do you know?" Gavin asked.
"I counted it on my fingers before I came here. I know vampires want to catch me, but there are two werewolves and my roommate will help me. But that is as far as my magic goes, there are things-here which are beyond my power because I'm not in China. I can only know a little bit about my future."
"What do you mean you count your fingers?"
"In China we predict the future by counting our fingers like this…" She began to count each finger carefully.
"Got it. So, you know we are werewolves, right?" asked Gavin.
"Are you a Chinese witch?" asked Maria.
"Not exactly," said Rachel, "I can use my magic to do a lot of things in China. I can change into everything if I want to; I can know every person's lifetime and previous lives; I can fly and I can freeze people for a very long time. But everything changes when I come here. I can only freeze people for a minute."
"So you are a shifter?"
"To be honest, I don't know what kind of thing I am. I can live a very long time and after I practice Buddhism enough I could be a fairy."
"My, my!"
"Well, I come here to find the man who saved my life a long, long time ago. But I don't know who he is now since he is a British guy after several reincarnations. I only know I could find him in this town and on his left ass there is a clear blue mole."
"Well, in this case, it's very difficult to find, because you couldn't ask everybody to take off their trousers." Maria said.
"I know. Don't worry, leave it to me. I can figure it out." Said Rachel, "So, how do you know me? Why do you want to help me to fight with vampires?"
"We heard the story from two vampires when we went to the club the other night. It's a long story, we will tell you later. And as to why we help you, it's a simple reason, simply because we don't want our werewolves to become extinct in the world."

We would like to help you Support the Boston Celtics in person. The place we would recommend checking out for to get those hard to get tickets is: Get Tickets Here. Yes everyone likes to see a winning team, but going to the game is really more about "BEING THERE". Did your parents ever take you to a live professional baseballl game? Did you ever take your kids? You know there is nothing better than being there!
Series shifts to friendlier territory
The Boston Celtics are hoping that the confines of home will help them get off to a better start tonight in game three of this First Round series against the Atlanta Hawks. The Hawks have gotten off to quick starts as evidenced by the 55-26 disparity in the opening quarters of their first two games. Head Coach Brad Stevens is still pondering a lineup change for game three.
"We've got to be better at the start, but at the same time it's not going to be just about the first six minutes," said Stevens. "We've got to play well throughout the whole 48. [The Hawks are] playing at a really good level that we're playing against. They're a really good team. And so we have to play well."
Celtics open Playoffs against the Hawks
The Boston Celtics and their first round foe Atlanta Hawks both had early exits from the 2015 NBA Playoffs. For the Celtics, it was an early first round bow out at the hands of the Cleveland Cavaliers.. For the Hawk, it was all the way in the Eastern Conference Finals where they were swept by the same Cavaliers.
Fast forward to the 2016 playoffs and the Atlanta Hawks who digressed by 12 games entering the 2016 playoffs while the Celtics improved by eight games, and while the Hawks have won the season series, the Celtics know that the playoffs is where it really counts.
Celtics looking to the Playoffs
The Boston Celtics are currently sitting in the 4th playoff seed and if all holds, would open the 2016 NBA Playoffs against the 5th seed Miami Heat in the first round. The Celtics hold the season series at 2-0 and have five games remaining with the season finale against the Heat.
Tonight the Celtics, off since their win against the Lakers on Sunday, will take on the New Orleans Hornets and will look to lock up home court with a win over the non-playoff bound Hornets. Friday night, the Celtics will take on the Milwaukee Bucks with the same mindset.

Johnny Johnston hails from Vail, Colorado. He spent his youth frolicking through the Rockies adorned in lederhosen. His devastating good looks got him into Brown University and he headed East to study History, Literature and Architecture. Afterward, Johnny moved to Los Angeles in search of the perfect Spanish villa. The search has lasted 20 years and taken him across the city. Sometimes, looking at property, he'd try to solve some of life's more confounding questions. Do the laws of thermodynamics apply equally to the mid-century and craftsman? Does a modern home need a modern man? What is modern… and what is man? Toward this end, Johnny went to seminary to pursue a Masters degree in Theology.
Working with Sotheby's International Realty for over a decade, Johnny and his team have established themselves as one of the most respected real estate teams in the city. With a clientele steeped in the entertainment industry, Johnny has represented principals from more than 20 countries. He is in the top 1% of Sotheby's International Realty agents nationwide.
Johnny was involved in the creation of Sotheby's for Schools, a non-profit organization committed to empowering youth through education. 100% of proceeds goes directly to local schools for our children. A percentage of every dollar Johnny's team earns goes to Sotheby's for Schools. To date, his office has contributed over $20,000 to Los Angeles public schools.
Johnny, his wife (fashion designer Heidi Merrick) and their two children split their time between Silver Lake, Santa Barbara and Vail. Heidi forbids Johnny from from indulging in lederhosen, but late at night he still dares to dream.

Isabel Marant Étoile
Saba Dress
Product Actions
For Spring 2014, Étoile Isabel Marant showed chic bohemian separates crafted in folkloric weaves, printed denim and rustic lace. The designer paid special homage to Japan, playing with origami and kimono shapes, quilting and an indigo and navy palette.
Ruffles were seen all over the Étoile Isabel Marant runway this spring. Here, they undulate around the arm openings and down the front of a loose, sleeveless shift softly tailored in washed raw silk. Styled with a pinafore yoke and gathered skirt, the dress features a self belt that lets you cinch and blouse the dress.
- Keyhole button closure at back
- Lined
- 38" length
- Available in Black
- Imported
- Silk
- Dry clean
Style # 503020020
The standard-bearer for insouciant Parisian chicness, Isabel Marant launched her easygoing Étoile diffusion line in 1999. Dispensing with formality, Marant creates comfortable, relaxed styles with the collection's deconstructed shapes and soft floral-print dresses that give the line a fluid, feminine feel.

The Big Valley

[show]In every episode where Nick is a spectator in a court-case, he interrupts the court to speak his peace, which always gets him into trouble with the judge who is presiding. In later episodes throughout the series, this took on a comedic tone, as the viewer knew that it was only a matter of time before Nick would voice his displeasure.

Software speed control
November 21, 2010
Okay, here's the deal. I am trying to think of a way, to control the speed and acceleration of my robot.
Firstly, what data I will have would be form the encoders and I am also able to control the pwm to the motors. With these I have to tackle two things. Knowing the actual speed and controlling it. andd controlling the acceleration. Details on the gearing and encoders first.
I have a 12 tooth pinion gear on the motor shaft which interlocks with a 48 tooth spur gear with the 30mm wheel infront. As for the encoders, they are 512 clicks per revolution (Faulhaber 1717) . I know the gearing will affect the encoder counts etc, but idk how.. hope you guys can help with that.
So on to speed.
I have a very very very VERY rough idea on how to... wait. i dont. hence i need your help :)
As for acceleration. I have a better idea on how to. Using the formula accel = (finspd - initspd)/time taken
say i want accel to be 5000m/s/s and i know the final and initial speed. Thus I am able to find the time taken. And with that. I divide the increase in pwm (to whatever speed i want) evenly. Will it work or is there a better and more efficient way?
What I do..
I have found (for hobby-style robots) that it is not really needed or easy to keep an eye on your wheel speed(s) whilst also trying to do navigation etc. What I have done in the past is to start with a routine to sync your motors. Before the robot gets into it's main routine, you have it do a series of simple fwd/back moves at different speeds. During this test, the robot can note what PWM "speed" is being sent and the actual speed of the wheel (how many clicks in a given time) is noted as well. From these numbers, you can easily calculate the "offsets" you will need to add/subtract from the motors to keep them going the same speed. The motors I use fall out of sync (one goes faster) more and more as the speed increases so when I do my "syncing" process, I test multiple times at different speeds --I.e. the offsets must be bigger as the robot goes faster. Again, once these offsets are stored in memory, they are simply looked up and added/subtracted to the speed requested when in your main routine.
When you finish this "pre-routine" at the start of your run, you will not need to do it during the "main routine" thus leaving valuable thinking space. Yes, as your drive batteries get low, these values may change and the motors may "fall out of sync" but unless you are doing some hard-core mapping etc. it should not be a problem. This "pre-routine" not only gives you your offsets to adjust the motors, but will also give you good numbers on what PWM duty cycle = what final speed. Now, when you want a given speed, you already have all your numbers --just do a little converting from the numbers and you can project what you are going to need for a given speed.
Now, at 512 clicks per revolution, I am unsure how well your uC is going to keep up. I know that Glen (glena of bahbots.com) has done a lot of work using interrupts for his encoders (instead of watching for the clicks in a regular loop) --and I actually think he uses the same motors. He has had great results, you may want to search his name and take a look at his robot for inspiration.
"I have a 12 tooth pinion
"I have a 12 tooth pinion gear on the motor shaft which interlocks with a 48 tooth spur gear with the 30mm wheel infront. As for the encoders, they are 512 clicks per revolution "
To spin your wheel once, the motor has to spin 4 times, and the robot will travel 94.25 mm. In other words 1 motor turn = 23.56 mm
And each encoder click means 0.046 mm (assuming the encoder are attached to the wheel axels)
From experience I recommend only controlling speed, and with what chris said in mind, not using the main mcu to do so (or if you do, use interupts). Very few application require controlling acceleration and speed. Most times, all that is needed is putting limits on the acceleration. Like this:
if |velocityCommand - currentVelocity| /time >= maxAccleration
velocityCommand = a value closer to currentVelocity
Calculating your current
Calculating your current speed is straightforward - sample your encoder count at two points with a fixed time interval between them. The difference between the two encoder count samples, multiplied by your mm/count ratio, gives the distance travelled during that period. Speed is then the distance travelled divided by the sample time interval.
Now that you've got some feedback you can look at controlling your speed. You could build a 'look up table' or formula that generates a PWM duty cycle to suit the desired speed based on empirical data, or you can construct something a bit more robust like a PID control loop. In this case just a proportional loop should work, and you can always expand on it if you need more control.
Building a basic proportional control loop is an easy and tidy way to handle speed control. Subtract your current speed from your desired speed (to get the 'error' signal), and multiply the result by your proportional gain constant (usually called Kp). Add the new value to your current PWM duty cycle value. Repeat the loop every time you calculate one or more new speed samples.
Adding basic acceleration control is easy from here, since your acceleration is proportional to the rate at which you change your PWM duty cycle. After calculating the amount to change your PWM duty cycle by, check if it's within the maximum limit. If the change is outside the limit, set it equal to the limit, then add the value to your PWM duty cycle as per normal.
Most likely you'll start off with no limit, and then bring the limit down gradually until there is no wheelspin/sliding/etc. Likewise your Kp value will mostly be determined by experimentation.

A disappointing stayPosted Jul 18, 2016
Pros: Room was clean and acceptable
Cons: Reception & owner presence
Location: St-John's is a beautiful City with a lot to visit in sourroundings
We arrive a Wednesday night with poor reception, very impersonal. In the morning, the breakfast was not very good, really not a B & B atmosphere. Food presentation was terrible ( jam in the jar, no peanut butter, margarine in container, no milk although they were offering cereals). The room was not clear for 4 nights since the instructions were not clear and nobody to talk to! WE COULD NOT OPERATE THE TV & nobody to ask! The owner was not around and seems did not care although Dimitry did his best but did not speak English well and blame the owner for lack of some foods. I will claim a partial refund and it did not worth 149 dollars a night while could get an hotel at his price.

Lovely and Quaint.Posted Jul 13, 2016
The place was lovely and clean. The live in staff were friendly but kept a distance for a very intimate stay. The breakfast was extensive and delicious. We had originally booked another place for the first night of our stay but our last minute plans brought us to the door of the abba and we are very grateful it did.

Very poor amenities for the pricePosted Jul 8, 2016
When checking in, the room was not what was reserved-it was a Queen bed, not a King. There was no staff on site. When I called the number, the person could not help me. I was eventually able to reach a manager who said the Expedia made the error-despite the printed confirmation that I had. I was moved to a King room, but told if I wanted more amenities I should stay at a hotel. There was large, used, family size cheap shampoo, conditioner, and mouth wash in the bathroom. There was a tiny kettle, no tea and only instant coffee. Breakfast was only available from 8-9 AM (found buried on their website). However, the staff only arrived at 8 and started cooking then. I needed to leave by 8:15 for the airport and the only choice given was a cookie. For the price, the service and accommodation was very poor.

Good location and good pricePosted Jun 26, 2016
Pros: Location, attached bathroom.
Cons: Crowded and stuffy room, awful breakfasts, unable to talk to or locate Staff when needed them.
Location: Parking was not too hard to access on streets. Short walking distances to big Basilica, the Rooms and many interesting houses. Big hike down streets
With price specials, this B & B was less than most others. A bit odd and not too welcoming as your typical B & B, but located very well for walking to many sites around St. John's.

Well priced hidden gemPosted Apr 20, 2016 on Hotels
Beautiful, nice size room! Comfy king size bed. Service was friendly & free breakfast of 2 fried eggs, 2 slices toast,3 homemade fish cakes, yogurt, & all the juice/coffee/tea you could drink. The only negative comment I have is about the parking. There is no where to park only on the street. Ok for spring, summer & fall, but, not good for the winter.

Bill Gates to quit full-time Microsoft role in 2008
Bill Gates is stepping down from his full-time role as Microsoft's Chief Software Architect in July 2008, when he will hand over the baton to right-hand man and current CTO Ray Ozzie. Gates will thereafter concentrate on his eponymous charitable foundation. Woah…
Gates said he believes "the road for Microsoft is as bright as ever" and emailed staff to thank them for their efforts, making reference to the fact that they have helped create the success and wealth that has ultimately funded the Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation, which will allow him to pursue a new philanthropic role. The foundation has built up a war chest of around $29bn.

Are all AJAX homepages doomed?
Dozens of personalised homepages (aka "AJAX homepages") have emerged over the past 18 months as developers started to programme lovely drag and drop interfaces, allowing users to customise the layout of their personal homepage. Cool technology, great use of AJAX, but is there trouble ahead?
PR bloggers stand up and be counted
My eyebrow raised this week when I read PR Week editor Danny Rogers' assertion in MediaGuardian: "There's a real lack of good PR blogs in the UK at the moment."
"Shurely shome mishtake," I thought, as the UK has a growing crop of decent online journals dedicated to analysing the increasing impact of new communications methods on corporate communications, marketing and media.
RSS strategy - full-text vs partial-text, round 2
In an article about RSS earlier this week I explained that there is no single rule of thumb when it comes to your RSS strategy.
A number of experts have suggested that the only sensible way to embrace RSS as an organisation is to launch full-text feeds, allowing RSS subscribers to read the whole story (or other message) within their RSS feed reader.
Yes, full-text is the first rule of RSS. But rules are there to be broken. Full-text simply doesn't work for everybody, for a number of reasons.
Getting creative with SEO tactics
Increasingly it is common knowledge on how to do best practice search engine optimisation. That doesn't make it easy, but it does mean you'll need to start thinking more creatively to keep a competitive edge.
So outside your standard SEO best practice, what more creative tactics might you use?
Online PR - Capitalisation Is Fine, But CAPS LOCK ISN'T
Online PR is something all companies should be doing, but too many PR professionals aren't bothering to use the web in the right way. The rules have changed, people. And they've changed for some very good reasons…
Guardian to publish news to web before the printed version
According to an article in today's MediaGuardian by Kim Fletcher, as of tomorrow (Tue 12 June), the Guardian will publish stories first to the web, "ending the primacy of the printed newspaper".
The newspaper industry seems to be agonising over such decisions and this is no doubt a 'ground-breaking' innovation for them. But isn't this as obvious as was the need for a format of newspaper you could actually read on the train (Berliner format blah blah)...?
Google's Smart Pricing - how's it working for you?
In the past people have commented that their ROI from clicks from Google's Adsense content network didn't match performance from Google search-referred clicks.
Smart Pricing, a click-discounting system for AdSense, was meant to help address this - so how's it working out?
Starting out with an RSS strategy
RSS is an alien concept to many marketers, so RSS strategy is pretty much off the radar for the vast majority. The trouble is, there are mixed messages being sent out by the experts, so it is hard to know where to start.
It is just like usability. Jakob Nielsen believes in a rules-based approach. Jared Spool does not. So who do you trust?

Applying early for scholarships and financial aid was the best decision I made.
I received a great scholarship though getting the state aid in the office taken care of was a hassle.
Each year, at the first day of the first month, I apply for FAFSA. This is where I receive most of my financial aid. I haven't received my financial aid report this year yet, but last year I didn't receive my report until June.
This school gives a good load of money for financial aid. Of course enough is never enough with any school, but the money La Roche gives really helped me out. That was the only reason I attend this school in the first place.
the Merit scholarships La Roche offer is nice but any other assistance for financial aid is a mess

2013 Acura ILX Premium Package 4dr Sedan (2.0L 4cyl 5A)
3 months of ownership and I'm extremely satisfied with my new ILX.Very peppy for a small 4cyl. engine. Ride and handling are very impressive.Excellent use of space on the interior.I'm coming from a mid-size and don't miss the little extra room I previously had.I don't want to see many of them on the road, but everyone should give this car a try.
HID headlamps. The adjustable rear-view camera is much easier to view than my previous one. Premium Acura sound system sounds great. Beautiful, soft luxury leather. Excellent value---Acura, don't change a thing.
More storage cubbies and sunglass/garage door holder would be nice.
I have owned many cars from Jeeps to Volvos and I keep coming back to Honda products.I owned a 1996 Acura Integra and I always refer to that as my favorite car.I owned a 2007 Volvo S40 that was pretty to look at, but drove very choppy.The 2013 Acura ILX is really smooth and fun to drive.I have read reviews that the ILX car is a Honda Civic in a tuxedo.What is wrong with a Honda Civic?My 2006 Honda Civic EX Coupe drove 10 times better than my Volvo S40 and the new ILX I just purchased drives even smoother and is 10x more luxurious than my Honda was.I think I have found that perfect blend of performance, luxury and style.I think I might have found my new favorite car.
I love the leather interior, smooth exterior design and 17" wheels.
The Premium Sound Systems is awesome and the engine runs so quiet and smooth.
The push button start and the keyless entry system is also so cool.
I have to upgrade my i-phone for the Blue Tooth to work, gives me an excuse to upgrade.
I love the way the car handles, however I think the steering could be a little firmer, but other than that I think the car is prerry close to perfect.
I purchased the Acura ILX after owning a Jeep Grand Cherokee for seven years.I really wanted a new JGC Overland, but decided it made more economic sense to look for a comfortable 60 miles/day commuter that would still give the feeling I was driving a solid entry level luxury car with most of todays tech features.The ILX has a very well engineered interior that seems well above the luxury level of a Civic or other lower end cars and in line with most other cars up to about 40K.It is a very pleasant place to relax while commuting a couple of hours a day.With a low 30's budget I compared against the Audi A3, VW GTI, Lexus 250H, and Suburu Outback and decided this was the best choice.
The interior with exceptional sound system and solid tech engineering and layout sold me on this car.
The ILX is not a 0-60 performance car, but it does perform very smoothly with more than adequate power to not constantly be wishing for more power to get safely on the highways or make other quick manuvers.
It will effortlessly cruise at 80, and handled quite well when I pushed it on some curvy mountain roads on a great road trip to Colorado.
I have read numerous reviews that say the performance or luxury level is not commensurate with its price level, but I could not find all around better at this price level.
The A3 had more zip with its turbo 2.0, but with same level of tech it was more like mid 30's so one would be trading interior tech for engine performance, not to mention that the interior did not seem near as well designed, or to have the expected reliability of the ILX.
Bottom line is this is a great car if the best 0-60 times is not your prime criteria.
For day-to-day commuting I do not miss the 5.9 0-60 straight line sprint of my old hemi jeep, and would not even trade it for my wife's even faster/better G37S.
The Ilx is a great car. I am a Honda/Acura fan which is a big part of why I purchased this car.You can get more car for the money with Toyota, Honda or Nissan any day, but if you want the Acura badge and build quality you pay the premium. The car handles extremely well, road noise is pretty low and the interior is one of the most comfortable and aesthetically appealing of any car I have owned. The interior isn't large but its done very well. I really enjoy driving this car and it gets its fair share of looks. Don't judge this car by pictures, I went to the dealer to buy a tsx and left with this because when I saw it the body styling really hooked me in. It is definitely not a rebadged civic
it has pretty much the same stuff you would find in a top of the line Honda, Toyota or Nissan.
The leather in Acuras is exceptional I will add.
The stereo that comes with the premium package is amazing.
The engine is a little on the lackluster end (150hp).
Acura has not yet incorporated LED running lights into its line up yet.
2013 Acura ILX Hybrid w/Technology Package 4dr Sedan (1.5L 4cyl gas/electric hybrid CVT)
I love this car.Gas mileage, suspension, and stereo are great.Bluetooth integration and Pandora integration work perfectly. Suspension and noise cancellation work amazingly well.Although it looks small, it has plenty of room and has always been big enough. Gas mileage has been from 42 to 45 without really trying.
Phone integration, Pandora, Suspension

A day after Geetika Sharma's mother committed suicide, Delhi Police today slapped charges of abetment to suicide against former Haryana Minister Gopal Kanda and his aide Aruna Chhadha after their names figured in her suicide note.
Anuradha Sharma, the mother of former airhostess Geetika Sharma who ended her life blaming Kanda, was found hanging from a ceiling fan in her house in Ashok Vihar area last evening.
Police registered a case and booked Kanda and Chhadha, already in judicial custody in the Geetika Sharma murder case, under Section 306 (abetment of suicide).
"The suicide note names Kanda and Chhadha. They have booked for abetment of suicide. Investigations are on in this case," a senior police official said.
In her suicide note, Anuradha said she was under depression ever since her daughter's death and blamed Kanda and his aide Aruna Chaddha for Geetika's death.
The official said Anuradga had also written a personal letter to her son Ankit Sharma explaining the reasons why she took the extreme step of ending her life. She also asked him to be strong.
He also said the family has not yet told police about any pressure being exerted by Kanda's family on them to withdraw their case against him.
Quoting family members, police sources said Anuradha was under depression and her family members never left her alone since Geetika's death. "They kept a close watch of her inside the house," police said.
The sources also said Ankit had called his mother for lunch yesterday but she refused and told him that they can meet at home in the evening.
However, she came home early from office and ended her life.
Geetika committed suicide in August last year alleging harassment by Kanda, who is currently in jail in connection with the case.
The 23-year-old airhostess, who was employed with the now defunct MDLR Airlines owned by Kanda, was found dead on August 5 last year at her Ashok Vihar residence in North West Delhi.
