fsync latency causing zookeeper server to fall apart
fsync latency causing zookeeper server to fall apart
Deepak Jagtap
2014-02-05, 00:17
Hi All,
I have zookeeper server quorum deployed on virtual machines.
I am noticing fsync latency warnings (more than 10 secs) in the log in some
this in turn causes that zookeeper server to fall apart from the cluster.
Any idea how should I root cause this?
Also can this be mitigated by increasing some timeout value.
Thanks & Regards,
Deepak Jagtap 2014-02-05, 00:17
Re: fsync latency causing zookeeper server to fall apart

2014-02-05, 00:29
The best way to mitigate this is to fix your platform problem. There is
very little that ZK can do to help.
IF it takes 10 seconds to flush to disk, this is going to make these
machines pretty intolerable for all kinds of applications.
To specifically answer your question, yes, you can increase timeouts, but
that isn't anything like a fix.

The Women of Duck Commander
Fans of Duck Dynasty already know that the women behind the men with the beards know their own minds and know how and when to speak out to their men. But this insightful audiobook will give readers a look into what goes on behind the scenes and the real character and spunk of the women who love these bearded men. Listeners will find that the Duck Commander women have real depth and character and, in addition to being the perfect companions for the Duckmen, are strong women of substance in their own rights.
In each section of this audiobook, our leading ladies share their hearts and their thoughts on the spiritual foundation that guides their lives as well as some of the difficulties and challenges they have faced in a chapter titled "'Happily Ever After' Sometimes Takes a While." They share about how each one became a Robertson and challenge myths about their motives for marriage into this family. The wives of these beloved men share precious stories about their love for Phil and Kay—with chapters titled "Oh, Kay!" and "Getting Our Phil"—as well as the core values that govern their lives. You'll learn about all their children, their own parents and grandparents, and what made them the women they are today.

Kannaroo 3: Killith Fair
Music for music's sake
By Simon McCormack
Usually, drunken ideas only sound brilliant while you're sloshed.
Max Moulton and three of his friends from Dixon beat the odds and came up with a solid idea for a music festival while blitzed. "Alcohol was kind of the catalyst," Moulton recalls. "Booze cures all."
That was three years ago. Since then, there have been two installments of their Kannaroo music festival in Sunshine Valley, situated just north of Questa. The third Kannaroo features 12 bands from New Mexico, Arizona and Colorado, a guitar shred-off competition and an improperly sized volleyball game.

Yoda's House acts as Southwestern ambassador. 8 p.m., $5, all-ages. (Laura Marrich)
Sonic ReducerNikki Kelly Nikki Kelly · Miles Okazaki Generations · The Ashes The Ashes
Albuquerque's Nikki Kelly sounds like she just woke up. Her sleepy, raspy and understated vocals set up the scene for everything she crafts instrumentally. Kelly plays guitar, piano, accordion and ukulele on her self-titled release, but the record is hardly cacophonous. Subdued folk keeps its cool and the biggest surprises come when Kelly's voice shoots high into the air. Lyrically, Kelly covers boredom, smoking and all matter of relationship troubles. She has a quiet, self-assured delivery and enough patience to stay away from overreaching. Her songs shun gaudy ornamentation—their simplicity is their greatest strength. (SM)

Cole James Cash: The WeGoinIN Interviewposted August 24, 2015 / No Comments
Cole James Cash is a producer you should be checking for, whether it's his intricate instrumental projects or how he has the ability to bring the gutterest of gutter bars out of MCs. Hailing from the Bay Area, Cole James Cash was originally into the EDM scene as a DJ before delving into the production game. As he made headway in the game, though, his addiction to prescription pills became so overpowering that Cole James Cash did a stint in rehab. Today, while fighting the urge to go back to that life, we find the talented producer focused on raising his family and his upcoming projects, the most recent of which will be Street Champion, an album inspired by the classic Street Fighter II. Check out Cole James Cash in this exclusive interview, as he details putting the album together, fighting his addiction, his production process, and much more.

Inktomi back in the day was one of the biggest powers on the Internet, it was even the top search engine for some time. It powered MSN search and was eventually acquired by Yahoo for $240 million.
But the story you don't hear very often is how Inktomi died. Diego Basch, a current LinkedIn employee and former Inktomi engineer shared his version in a blog post.
In March 2000 Inktomi had a market cap of $25 billion. Exactly one year later, the stock dropped 99.9 percent. Why?
Basch's story begins in 1999. Yahoo was Inktomi's biggest customer and began complaining because when you typed "Yahoo" they weren't No. 1 in their own search results. Although Inktomi fixed the problem for Yahoo, they couldn't solve this search problem for many other businesses and websites.
Meanwhile, Google was solving the "relevancy" problem. Google's PageRank was outsmarting Inktomi, though they didn't realize it at the time.
Inktomi then tried to build a tool to "measure the relevance effect of algorithmic changes based on precomputed human judgements." This was a score from 1-10, much like PageRank is today (though hundreds more factors have been added the modern PageRank). This helped solve the majority of ranking problems but didn't solve the next biggest factor in people using Google, user experience.
"Despite our relevance being so great, there was one huge red flag: engineers at Inktomi were starting to use Google as our search engine." Basch wrote. The Google experience was far superior to Inktomi's. Here are the two reasons Basch states:
- Inktomi didn't control the front-end. We provided results via our API to our customers. This caused latency. In contrast, Google controlled the rendering speed of their results.
- Inktomi didn't have snippets or caching. Our execs claimed that we didn't need caching because our crawling cycle was much shorter than Google's. Instead of snippets, we had algorithmically-generated abstracts. Those abstracts were useless when you were looking for something like new ipad screen resolution. An abstract wouldn't let you see that it's 2048×1536, you'd have to click a result.
Google realized that it's not all about displaying hundreds of results to the user but more about "satisfying the need for information." As it turns out, Inktomi engineers preferred using Google more than the product that they were building.
Engineers even went so far as to build a slick looking UI for their internal search but the execs of Inktomi determined that they didn't want to move forward with improving the user experience in this way. This, among with other reasons, is the reason why Inktomi failed.
Google much like Inktomi, must re-evalutate what it's currently doing. They're making billions every quarter thanks to advertising, and search is going strong but the Penguin update has raised a lot of questionable results to the surface. Google must be careful to not start declining from here on out.
Right now Google is putting everything into Google+. Over the coming months as Google integrates everything into Google+, Google must remember to keep its users happy, or else they may start looking for more relevant results elsewhere.

The Iowa Supreme Court ruled 4-3 on Friday that the University of Iowa could be sued for its role in a notorious research project, started in 1939, in which orphans were taught to stutter.
Judge Samuel Alito, President Bush's new nominee for the U.S. Supreme Court, has not written many decisions that relate directly to higher education. But he has taken strong First Amendment stands in defending the rights of a student newspaper and in questioning anti-harassment rules at a public school.
The U.S. Supreme Court's recent decision in MGM Studios v. Grokster continues to reverberate in the world where music and technology collide, as another file sharing network popular with college students, i2hub, followed Grokster Monday in announcing that it would shut down.
But if recording industry officials think they have definitively won the battle over the free sharing of music and video, they are mistaken, many students -- and some campus experts -- say.

Obesity treated in the womb
- From: news.com.au
- April 02, 2012
- Obese women given diabetes pills in drug trial
- Aim to reduce the size of their babies in the womb
- "Saying at that stage to eat less is not particularly helpful"
OBESE mothers are being given diabetes pills to reduce the chance of them having a fat baby.
In a world first trial, 400 overweight pregnant women in the UK and Scotland will be prescribed metformin - a drug that has been used for decades to treat diabetes and is cleared for pregnancy.
Researchers are hoping that taking metformin from the second trimester onwards will have result in smaller babies and cut the risk of stillbirth, maternal death and cardiovascular disease.
The trial has angered many health experts who say overweight mothers should be encouraged to exercise and eat properly rather than just pop a pill to produce a thinner baby.
Doctors behind the trail say that obesity among pregnant women is reaching epidemic proportions and they need to act now to protect the health of tomorrow's children.
"'I absolutely support the improvement of diet and encouraging exercise but we are increasingly faced with women who start their pregnancy obese. Saying at that stage to eat less and exercise more is not particularly helpful,' study leader Professor Jane Norman of Edinburgh University said.
So a pill it is.
Studies have already found that big babies are twice as likely to grow into overweight adults, suggesting that obesity and ill-health can be "programmed" in the womb. As they grow into adulthood they are more at risk of cardiovascular disease and diabetes.
In a 2009 study published in the Australian Medical Journal researchers found the weight of Australian babies has significantly increased at birth.
Patrick O'Brien from the British Royal College of Obstetricians and Gynaecologists described the study as 'very important'.
"When you are overweight in pregnancy you are at increased risk of just about every complication you can think of."

I think this is absolutely fine. Who wants more fat people in the world?
Loz of Melbourne Posted at 11:55 AM April 02, 2012
Interesting to see what the side effects are in 20 years time. Don't think I would be taking this!
Amz of adelaide Posted at 11:55 AM April 02, 2012
The baby will likley become over weight when it is born due to its parents poor habits being taught to it. Where does the cycle end?

Creative Loafing comes to the rescue with book recommendations for all.
FOR Big Brother
TY.disORG (True Youth Dot Disorganization), as your son insists on being called, is convinced that the world order will be overthrown (and good riddance) by iPods, peer-to-peer networks and open source code. He might be right, according to Siva Vaidhyanathan, author of The Anarchist in the Library: How the Clash Between Freedom and Control is Hacking the Real World and Crashing the System. Vaidhyanathan examines the hyper-text-messaged clash between oligarchy and anarchy in the networked and digitized world, searching deeply for a liberal humanist solution. $26. Perseus Books. 253 pages.
For Grandma:
We know you've always suspected that Grandma was once the same freedom fighter who went by the name of Cumulonimbus, lieutenant of love-ins for the '60s anarchist cabal the Meddlesome Meteorologists. Well, CL has just learned that the Feds are hot on her tail (and what a hot tail it still is, Granny!). So you better hurry and buy her a copy of The Freedom Outlaw's Handbook: 179 Things to Do 'Til the Revolution by Claire Wolfe (if that is his or her real name). The book is packed with practical tips on hiding your money in offshore accounts, anonymizing your online activities, building your own machine shop, outwitting lie detectors, forming cells of leaderless resistance, and otherwise sticking it to the man without getting stuck in jail. $20. Loompanics Unlimited. 186 pages.
For Dad
Speaking of the man, Daddy Lotsabucks is the man. (Makes for interesting Thanksgiving Day conversations, we bet.) And Dad wants to read about all the alpha guys (and plucky gals) who invented the system Granny is trying to overthrow. He'll love They Made America by Harold Evans, and not just for the shiny copper dust jacket or the SUV-sized dimensions of this coffee table book. Within, the stories of pioneers including Robert Fulton (who it turns out didn't actually invent the steamboat, but dammit, he was the first guy to figure out how to make a buck off it), Herbert Boyer (biotech), Gary Kildall (true founder of the personal computer revolution, before those upstarts Gates and Jobs came along), Thomas Watson (IBM), and, to take the edge off, Joan Ganz Cooney ("Sesame Street"). $40. Little, Brown and Company. 496 pages.
For Mom
A refined, elegant, self-made woman, Mom doesn't often talk about her modest youth. For the rest of the world, she's all pate and beef Wellington, but you've caught her late at night cooking up some spoon bread or maple cake. Tell her you bought her Maya Angelou's Hallelujah! The Welcome Table: A Lifetime of Memories with Recipes for the high-society sightings (dinner with Oprah!) and sophisticated culinary creations of the former celebrated cook at San Francisco's Creole Cafe. (Oh, and we hear she wrote some poems or something, too.) Let the lyric stories from Angelou's childhood and the down-home recipes that accompany them be Mom's little secret. $29.95. Random House. 240 pages.
For Mistress
With Mom always away at her high-society functions, a certain Manolo Blahnik-wearing mistress has been left to handle the, uh, stocking stuffing. Make sure she's getting her hard-earned O (and maybe set the stage for a threesome?) with The "On" Position: The Sexual (Mis)adventures of a Hollywood Journalist, Katie Moran's hot and heavy memoir-style guide to adventurous sex for women (though Dad might enjoy reading it, too). Includes handy instructions on determining a potential partner's FQ! $24.95. Bonus Books. 250 pages.
FOR Uncle
In the promo materials for Oliver Stone's Alexander, Warner Bros. refers to the ancient warrior king's "intense bonds with his closest companions." Local author Michael Alvear is a tad less circumspect in his iconoclastic biography, Alexander the Fabulous: The Man Who Brought the World to Its Knees. With hilarious irreverence, Alvear tells of Alexander's hot boyfriends, grooming rituals, advance publicity team and ... there was something else ... oh yeah, his military tactics. $14.95. Advocate Books. 200 pages.FOR Sister
Honor your favorite riot-grrrl vegan with the ComicsLit version of the book that has permanently spoiled many a carnivore's appetite for sausage and lard, Upton Sinclair's The Jungle, adapted to a grim and grainy graphic novel by Peter Kuper. While she's grossing out self-righteously over illustrations of "boiled" beef (with extra oozing puss), you can rest assured that she's also learning important leftist lessons and union solidarity. $15.95. ComicsLit. 48 pages.
FOR Little Brother
Junior's book is also gross and has the appearance of something educational, but some of the information -- OK, pretty much all of it -- is suspect in Your Disgusting Head: The Darkest, Most Offensive -- and Moist -- Secrets of Your Ears, Mouth and Nose. There is some question whether Fernando de la Mancini-Goldfarb was the original designer of the human ear. The world's supply of personal snot may not, in fact, be manufactured entirely in Detroit. And your budding young biologist probably should not stop brushing his teeth. Actually, a budding biologist probably shouldn't read this at all, but the next generation's Dave and Toph Eggers (they "helped" authors Dr. and Mr. Doris Haggis-On-Whey) will thank you for this introduction to deadpan absurdist humor for the under-10 set. $16.95. Simon & Schuster. 63 pages.

I like the ingredients in this curry but tripled the curry powder. I let it simmer for over an hour to get it to the consistency that I like When I serve curry it ends up looking a bit like a Sundae. I use fresh apples, tomatoes, chopped onions & bananas. Usually I have a chappati or two and chutney Mmmmm great dinner Thanks for posting Out of the Blue

I present to you.... This is the icon for our newly released iOS-game "Dizzy Dice".
The icon features "Herbert". One of six dice that features in this epic Dice adventure. Its made in collaboration with super-talented 3D artist Ronald Kabiçek that work with me here at Hyper. He stood for the basic 3D shapes while I pimped it up and gave it dimention and lighting. Really happy with the result, and super-fun to work with. I totally fell in love with these creatures, and named this one Herbert.

The unraveling of the al Assad regime in Syria will produce many geopolitical consequences. One potential consequence has garnered a great deal of media attention in recent days: the possibility of the regime losing control of its chemical weapons stockpile. In an interview aired July 30 on CNN, U.S. Secretary of Defense Leon Panetta said it would be a "disaster to have those chemical weapons fall into the wrong hands -- hands of Hezbollah or other extremists in that area." When he mentioned other extremists, Panetta was referring to local and transnational jihadists, such as members of the group Jabhat al-Nusra, which has been fighting with other opposition forces against the Syrian regime. He was also referring to the many Palestinian militant groups such as Hamas and the Popular Front for the Liberation of Palestine-General Command, which have long had a presence in Syria and until recently have been supported by the al Assad regime.
The fear is that the jihadists will obtain chemical weapons to use in terrorist attacks against the West. Israel is also concerned that Palestinian groups could use them in terrorist attacks inside Israel or that Hezbollah could use such weapons against the Israelis in a conventional military battle. However, while the security of these weapons is a legitimate concern, it is important to recognize that there are a number of technical and practical considerations that will limit the impact of these weapons even if a militant group were able to obtain them.

1994 Mercedes-Benz E-Class E420 4dr Sedan
This is my fourth classic mercedes. It is a remarkable vehicle. A 280 hp V8 engine delivers seemingly endless power. Extremely quick from 40-100 mph. An excellent vehicle which is quickly becoming scarce. Build quality is typical MB of this era. Spare no expense teutonic quality. Buy one without ASR traction control if you can.
The M119 engine. Plain and simple.
None. If you want cupholders, buy a minivan.
Purchased as a Mercedes Starmark car
almost 5 years ago with 50,000 miles.
I now have 110,000 trouble free miles.
This car is so fun to drive with the
V8. It is truly a wolf in sheep's
clothing. Other than routine
maintence, battery and set of tires,
this car has been perfect. I used to
own Cadillac's before I purchased the
Mercedes, but the Cadillac was
problamitic and the dealersips was
terrible. Mercedes Benz of Portland
has been great for service. I jjust
bought my wife an ML 420 and she loves
Great ride and power. Mercedes
reliablity and great service. Great
saftey and quAlity. Even the stereo
and multi disc CD player work great
the only thing I would of like to seen
is a cup holder--no big deal
My E420 is a pleasure to drive, plain
and simple. Very smooth power, quiet
ride, reliabliity, and great looks add
up to a great ownership experience for
Power, handling, comfort, and quiet.
addition of cupholders and a glove box.
One cannot possibly do better. Gas mileage identical to 320 except w/ferocious power! Some morons spend $20,000+ on Civic/ Accord, etc. Instead can have a monstrous fast, luxury liner built like a Mac for under $18,000. Extraordinarily reliable, incomparable in any fashion. 500,000+ SAME motor. A claim no other manufacturer can make. & they drive like new no matter miles. No squeaks, hesitation. Buying anything else is stupidity. Comparing them is like comparing a chalk board to a Pentium 4.
Power, quietness, reliability, image, safety, build quality is incomparable.

Casablanca When to Go
When temperatures are at their highest in July and August, visitors come out en masse to Casablanca, Morocco's economic and industrial capital. Despite being a busy place, the largest and most liberal city in Morocco doesn't have as much for tourists as other alluring spots. Still, people flock to the beaches during the summer—the trendy Aïn Diab area has a stretch with cafes and beach clubs that attracts the young and upwardly mobile.
From February to June and again in September, the weather cools, as does the number of visitors to Casablanca. Spend this time relaxing at a hotel resort or a hammam, a traditional bathhouse. For one with a purpose more powerful than pampering (although they do that well, too), try Solidarité Féminine Hammam and Health Center, which employs single mothers, a demographic that often faces discrimination in Morocco.
During the low season of October to January, it's cooler and wetter but unlikely to be uncomfortably chilly. Escape the rain at Mahkama du Pacha, near the Old Medina, a small market. The ornate parliamentary building features stuccoed ceilings, tiled floors, and marble columns. The catch? Sometimes you can view it only from the outside, but if you're able to find a guide, you might be able to head indoors to explore.

Citizen get cup boost before AFC campaign
Citizen received a timely boost ahead of their AFC Cup campaign when they beat newly crowned Senior Shield champions Sunray Cave Sun Hei 1-0 in the quarter-finals of the Halewinner League Cup at Mong Kok Stadium yesterday.
Captain Festus Baise scored the only goal of the game from the penalty spot in the 65th minute to set up a semi-final clash against league leaders TSW Pegasus.
Citizen, the winners of last year's Senior Shield - a feat that earned them a berth in the AFC Cup for the first time - will kick off their regional campaign in 10 days when they travel to Singapore to take on Home United.
'Our starting line-up against Home United will be the same as today,' Citizen executive director Calvin Pui Ho-wang said. 'We're pleased with today's result, even though we did not have much possession. Our defence did a really good job.'
In the AFC Cup, each team is allowed to field three foreign players and an additional expatriate as long he is from Asia. But with top scorer Paulo Carreiro still recovering from a groin injury, Citizen fielded only two foreign players and one Asian expatriate yesterday.
'We do not want to risk Carreiro at this stage because he is not fully fit,' Pui said. 'He is also unlikely to play against Home United, but since there are six matches in the group stage, he will certainly have a role to play as the tournament progresses.'
Citizen and Home United are in group G along with Yangon United of Myanmar and Chonburi of Thailand. The Thais are favourites, having reached the second-tier regional competition after losing in the Asian Champions League qualifiers to Pohang Steelers of South Korea.
Sun Hei were determined to continue their winning form after overcoming powerhouses South China in the Senior Shield final, but could not find a way past a solid Citizen defence.
Their best chance came early in the second half when Pun Jia hit the post. But they soon found themselves one goal down after the referee awarded Citizen a penalty when Edson Minga brought down Baise. The Citizen captain made no mistake with his spot kick.
Meanwhile, Kitchee beat Tuen Mun 2-1 and will face South China in the other League Cup semi-final.
Although Spanish striker Roberto Losada scored in each half, including a deflection off Leung Kwok-wai in the 39th minute, Kitchee never looked impressive and were always short of attacking ideas. They were thrown into a panic after Mirko Teodorovic pulled one back for Tuen Mun in the 77th minute but held on.

For one night only, 8 local stand-up comedians will take the stage to dazzle you and raise funds to help Arts Law flourish.
We provide legal advice to a huge range of artists around the country. We're shining a spotlight on these artists and sharing their stories.
Arts law is particularly concerned by some of the proposals in the draft report. The undervaluation of artists' contributions and the lack of consideration of Indigenous Cultural Intellectual Property issues, the suggestion that the optimal copyright term is 15 to 25 years after creation, the proposal to remove parallel import restrictions for books and the fair use provisions proposed in the draft report. You can read our full submission here.
Deloitte Access Economics are produceing a report on the cultural and economic value of Indigenous visual arts.
People in NSW may soon be able to sue for serious invasions of privacy, after a report from the legislative Standing Committee on Law and Justice recommended a statutory cause of action be introduced.
We presented a short seminar in March for filmmakers at Kino Sydney's #104 Open Screen Film Night - it was a hoot!
This FREE (yay!) webinar is an amazing opportunity to learn about copyright from the comfort of your home.
Arts Tasmania, in partnership with the Arts Law Centre of Australia, is presenting a series of free workshops covering important legal issues for Tasmanian artists and arts businesses in Launceston and Hobart in late February.

Can the Civic Refresh Its Fortunes?
Despite the backlash faced by the redesigned 2012 Honda Civic, the compact continues to finish at or near the top of the segment in sales month after month. Through September, 234,029 examples have been sold, making it the best-selling compact so far this year. That could all change though, because in recent months, the Civic has been pushed out of the number one position in monthly sales by the Chevrolet Cruze, while the Toyota Corolla closes the gap between the year-to-date sales.
The Civic has also been subject to surprisingly average and negative reviews, with Consumer Reports stripping the refreshed model of its "recommended" tag. Meanwhile, in our 2012 Honda Civic First Test, we said, "Still, there's something missing with Gen 9. Maybe it's the exterior's perceived lack of newness, the interior's familiarity, or the engine's identical peak output. Or all three."
Introduced for the 2012 model year in coupe and sedan body styles, the Honda Civic is offered in gas, more efficient HF, natural gas, sporty Si, and hybrid forms. It's been widely rumored that the 2013 Honda Civic may be refreshed to address complaints — what does the car need to regain its compact sedan lead? Here's what we think:

Honda needs to give the Civic a much bolder design. The new Civic's appearance plays it safe, and that's why it's starting to get lost among the shuffle. It needs to be packed with standard features that are now becoming the norm, including Bluetooth, dual climate control, and steering-wheel-mounted controls, and most importantly, it must have a quieter interior. Bottom line, Honda needs to give consumers something to be excited about like it did with the 2006 Civic, the Motor Trend 2006 Car of the Year.

Although the 2012 Honda Civic's exterior could have received a more significant upgrade, the interior is the biggest letdown, and that's where owners spend most of their time. Plastics need to be softer to the touch and have better graining. Padding for the door and center armrests would be welcome, and the seats could be more comfortable. Bluetooth plus USB/auxiliary inputs should be standard. While the powertrain remains as dependable as ever, power needs to be increased, while a six-speed automatic on higher-trim models could help the car achieve at least 40 mpg highway without the need for a Civic HF.

To continue thriving, the Honda Civic needs to step up its exterior design. Compact sedans used to be ho-hum, no-nonsense affairs – with plain three-box shapes the norm — but those days are long-gone. The Chevrolet Cruze, Ford Focus, and Hyundai Elantra have demonstrated that today's compact sedan buyers are accepting of more fashion-forward approaches to the segment. All three cars are attractive, and not just for a compact sedan. That's where the 2012 Civic went wrong; it looked like a warmed-over version of the previous model. If Honda can give the refreshed Civic fresh and desirable sheetmetal, it'll give the Civic a fighting chance at continued success.

C-segment buyers expect more content these days, which is why the next Civic must be kitted out with the latest infotainment, convenience, and tech features. Like Karla and Jason said, common features like Bluetooth should be made standard (if not on the base, at least on the LX model). As far as styling goes, I don't think the Civic needs anything drastic to maintain its position. Though it may not be much of a departure from the previous generation, the current car's design is still fresh compared to the Cruze and Corolla. To shoot past its aging competitors, the next-gen car only needs minor tweaks to the front and rear ends, a Civic badge, and call it a day.

At its core, I think the Civic is still a well-built and well-engineered car, better than the 2013 Hyundai Elantra and 2013 Kia Forte. That said, why not offer the Civic with the same warranty that comes with the two Koreans? Give it the same 10-year/100,000-mile powertrain warranty and 5-year/60,000-mile new-car warranty and make it a huge marketing "wow factor." That, along with the upcoming styling refresh (assuming it's done right) should provide a quick and much needed jolt to the Civic's bottom line.
What do you think the Honda Civic needs to regain its compact segment lead?
