Good value for were he got him tho. At some point you have to take a chance on him.
I took a gamble on Dixon but who is there in that Baltimore backfield??
Forsett will be 31 coming off a injury.
Buck proved he isn't that good....
Hunter Henry was a reach at 2.4??

Cincinnati Contemporary Arts Center
After Mapplethorpe, New Museum Puts City Back on Art Map
In 1990, an exhibit by controversial photographer Robert Mapplethorpe put Cincinnati's Contemporary Arts Center on the cultural map. The explicit, homoerotic photographs sparked a trial on obscenity charges. The Center and its director were ultimately acquitted, and the art center was in the national spotlight.
Now the center is in the spotlight again, thanks to a new exhibit facility, officially titled the Lois and Richard Rosenthal Center for Contemporary Art, which opened to the public June 7, 2003. The museum was designed by Zaha Hadid, a high-profile architect born in Baghdad in 1950, known for her bold but often impractical designs.
This is the first major American building for Hadid, and it's also the first major American art museum designed by a woman. Naomi Lewin of member station WGUC reports that the art center is drawing rave reviews.
Charles Desmarais, director of the art center, finds the new space invigorating. "There is a physical reaction that people have to the spaces that (Hadid) creates," he tells Lewin.
Just last month, Zaha Hadid received Europe's most prestigious architecture prize, the Mies van der Rohe Award, for her design of a transit station in France. Her firm is currently at work on a museum in Bartlesville, Okla., and projects on three other continents.

With Gibson involved; Couldn't wait for the show to hit the screen in Houston so I could take My kids and show them a reasonable representational response to their: "What did you do in the war, Daddy?" - (I was an H-34 Driver, out of Udorn '66 - '68)... Despite Gibson's standard magnificent acting, the writing was a bummer compared to the REAL calibers of wit & humor that took place. It's a damn shame the writer didn't have tapes of the up-country aircraft comm traffic to draw from; you'd be waking-up in the middle of the night, laughing at the one-liners. In 28-years and 13,000+ flight-hours in 7-Nations on 5-Continents; that was the greatest bunch of maniacs I ever had the honor of working with.

Tripped up by poor play
Panthers snap Eagles' five-game winning streak
Out of character and running out of chances.
That was the sum total of the Marquette Golden Eagles' 58-51 loss to the No. 19 Pittsburgh Panthers at the Bradley Center on Thursday night.
Questionable shot selection, untimely turnovers, poor interior defense and mental breakdowns - all of it combined to bring MU's five-game winning streak to a screeching halt as the Golden Eagles (16-9, 7-6 Big East) suffered their worst loss in league play to date and tempered NCAA tournament talk for the time being.
"I would say we took ourselves out," said Lazar Hayward, who moved into fifth place on MU's all-time scoring list with an 11-point night. "We weren't playing together, playing for each other, playing team defense. When we're not playing team defense, we don't play well. When we don't create for each other, we're not a good team.
"It would have been a good one to get. We know exactly why we lost. We're going to go back to work. We know we weren't us today. When we're not together, collectively a 12-man team, we're not very good."
Jimmy Butler had 14 points and seven rebounds and Darius Johnson-Odom 13 points for MU, which was just one for 10 from three-point range in the second half while allowing Pittsburgh to shoot 60.0% (12 for 20) over that same span.
Four players - Jermaine Dixon, Gary McGhee, Nasir Robinson and Brad Wanamaker - scored 10 points apiece to lead Pittsburgh (20-6, 9-4), which shot 54.8% for the game and a sizzling 68.0% from inside the three-point arc to win its fourth straight.
MU used a 9-2 run to open the second half, with six of the points coming on either dunks or layups as the Golden Eagles regained some of the aggressiveness that led to them falling behind by six points at halftime.
Johnson-Odom got things started with a steal and monstrous dunk on the other end, then added a three from the right wing. A pair of layups by Butler made it 34-33 and got the crowd of 16,486 back into the proceedings.
Pittsburgh wouldn't be rattled, however. Starting with a Wanamaker runner, the Panthers went on a 14-5 run that featured six baskets from point-blank range, including three straight dunks by Dante Taylor that put them back in control at 47-39 with 9 minutes, 27 seconds remaining.
"We're always undermanned inside - everybody knows that," said MU coach Buzz Williams. "They did a great job of having patience and poise on offense, and we did a real poor job of playing team defense."
Unable to string together anything resembling another run, the Golden Eagles clamped down defensively to at least give themselves a chance.
Pittsburgh turned the ball over on four consecutive possessions, but MU was only able to turn two of the miscues into points. After a pair of Wanamaker free throws, Hayward converted a three-point play to pull the Golden Eagles within 56-51 with 2:16 to play.
That, however, would represent the extent of MU's comeback.
After a Panthers miss on the other end, the Golden Eagles gave it away on an inbounds play, failing to cash in on an offensive rebound. Then, after Pittsburgh committed a turnover right in front of its own bench, nearly prompting coach Jamie Dixon to keel over in disbelief, Maurice Acker missed a rushed three-pointer that the Panthers rebounded.
Gilbert Brown was fouled but missed the front end of the bonus, leaving the door ajar, but again the best MU could manage was a long three by David Cubillan that missed its mark and landed out of bounds. Then the Golden Eagles committed a cardinal sin, allowing Dixon to get behind them on the inbounds and score on a breakaway.It was an uncharacteristic series of breakdowns and bad decisions in crunch time. Now, having missed a golden opportunity to bolster their résumé, the Golden Eagles will have to make their bones on the road as they head out for a crucial three-game road swing beginning Sunday in Cincinnati.

|Because I want to commissions some people. :3
|Because I want to commissions some people. :3
If you want to be a dedicated watcher, follow me as I create the fruition of working on my next goal called Pink Palmtoppers. It is a manga series I desire to do with characters, designs and ideas I want to show and make a living from. My content is rated G for the general audience and E for ecchi.
Most people don't know this about me but to get to the creative pinnacle of where I'm at, I was actually very uncreative as a child. Being the oldest has its perks; getting all the toys your parents would get you, taking walks holding Daddy's hand and imaginating worlds with your childhood cartoon characters. I was interestly intrigued by cartoon animals moreso than animated people. The best animated animals, in my opinion came from Hana Barbara, Disney and Dreamworks. This spanned to to my love and appreciation to stories, film work, animation and scripting. I cannot tell you how much jubilation courses through my spirit and body when I piece together a good cast of characters, writing and story direction and make it enjoyable. Whether it's to my mother who asked for a short poem on the awesomeness of God's glory in under 10 minutes, or for my best friend and roleplay partner who gets giddy if I tie a connection with the characters or make a song out of pure whim, or clients when I emote strong imagery for their orders. I am ever gifted in being able to describe a topic or subject visually and literally with great ease and scrutiny. If there is anything that I've learned, it's that humans fear change that puts them in uncomfortable situations. With my services, those changes will be removed with the comfort of my skills and the anticipation of it pivoting to a new and unique turn for the better.
10 Commandments for Page and For Life
1. I will say no to sudden plans, suggestions and requests if it collides with my schedule at that given moment. Only when I have done MY work schedule will I consider it.
2. I will charge for my services as a freelancer. My time and produce is not for free. Those who believe they should be will cease in contact with me immediately.
3. I will trust my intuition as an freelancer and entrepreneur when the outcome seems grim and the atmosphere grows tense.
4. From the time I finish a goal to the next goal, I will take a daily and weekly break. This is to be effective and precise in my trade as well as give my clients time to take a break from anticipation and impatience.
5. When all work is completed, edited, revised and blessed within 60 days, I will exercise a bonus to myself that is appropriate for the endurance and hard work committed.
6. When my funds reflect my hardwork, I will make sure to treat others to what I have achieved by organizing promotional events and giveaways.
7. I will firmly state that what I do for work is an actual occupation, not a hobby.
8. Those that own the highest admiration and influence in my work are considered part of my family tree of inspiration. May they gain high praise and tribute to being such an inspiring role model in my young life.
9. Every 2 days in a consecutive week, I will be exercising not only my body but my creativity, monthly budget and goals to strengthen those muscles.
10. I will share my success in goals and work to all I am around, including my growing audience.

A vegetation-based method to map climatic variation in the arctic–boreal transition area of Finnmark, north-easternmost Norway
Abstract:Abstract Aim
To develop a new method for bioclimate mapping where the vegetation layer is the main source of climate information. Location
The study area includes four subareas, all situated on the Varangerhalvøya peninsula in Finnmark, north-easternmost Norway (70–71° N). The four subareas were chosen to represent most of the climatic, topographic, geomorphologic and botanic diversity along the arctic–boreal gradient in the area. The four meteorological stations in the area show a climatic gradient with mean July temperature ranging from 10.1 to 12.3 °C. Methods
The new vegetation-based method is based on the fact that most plant species and plant communities both in the Arctic and adjacent areas have a distribution pattern limited by temperature to some extent. The vegetation is mapped using Landsat TM data and a contextual correction process in a geographic information system. The mapped vegetation units are defined as temperature indicators based on their total distribution patterns and the temperature indicator value of their high frequency and dominant species. The indicator value and degree of cover of all thermophilous vegetation units, within each 500 × 500 m study unit, are combined in a Vegetation-based Index of Thermophily, VItm. This new vegetation-based method is based on the same basic idea as a recently published floristic-based method for calculating a Floristic-based Index of Thermophily, FItm. The VItm values are tested by comparison with the FItm values, and temperature data collected in the field during two growing seasons, and the differences are interpreted ecologically. Results
Twenty-one of the mapped vegetation units were defined as thermophilous and categorized in five groups of temperature indicators. The VItm values showed a strong positive linear relationship with the temperatures measured during the years 2001 and 2002, with r2 values of 0.79 and 0.85, respectively. The VItm values show a high linear relationship (r2 = 0.76) with the 71 study units where the FItm values were calculated. As interpreted from the relationship with temperature measurements and FItm values, the vegetation-based method seems to work at a broad range of ecological conditions, with very dry, acidic sites being the most important exception. The VItm values are related to growing degree-days of a normal year, and the four subareas are mapped, showing a diversity of 13 bioclimatic classes. The birch forest line is estimated to occur at about 980 °C-days. The results show climatic gradients with temperatures increasing from the cold coast towards the interior, from wind-exposed convex hills towards wind-protected valleys, and from mountain plateaux towards south-facing lowlands. The north-easternmost study site at the coast is positioned within the arctic shrub tundra zone. Main conclusions
The vegetation-based method shows a strong positive correlation both with measured temperatures and the floristic-based method within a broad range of different ecological conditions. The vegetation-based method has the potential for bioclimatic mapping of large areas in a cost-effective way. The floristic-based method has higher accuracy and is more flexible than the vegetation-based method, and the two methods seem to complement each other.

At the beginning of the 21st century most young people are told that social security won't be there for them when they retire from the work force. Thus, in order to be able to completely retire from the workforce, a person has to invest as early as possible in order to take full advantage of the power of compounding.
Let's follow the story of Erica and John. They both grew up on the same street in the same city. Their mothers gave birth to them at almost the same time. Erica and John went to the same high-school, after which their paths separated. They lost contact with each other for the next 40 years, at which point they found each other on Facebook, and met to reminiscence their childhood and talk about grandkids.
They quickly started talking about their retirement and the amount of money they had each had at the time of their retirement.
John, who always saved the extra money he earned from jobs at college and his first job after college, started investing $2000/year in dividend stocks starting at the age of 18 and kept saving and investing the same amount until he was 28. At that point he had so many expenses in order to pay for the needs of his growing family that he couldn't save anymore. Despite the fact that John couldn't contribute any more to fund his retirement, he was very good at picking solid dividend growth stocks, and was able to generate annual returns of 10% for the next four decades.
Erica on the other hand had decided that she didn't want to work in college since she wanted to concentrate on her studies while also enjoying the whole college experience. She then decided to go ahead and get a masters degree after which she was able to get a very good job with one of the largest companies in the USA. She did accumulate a large amount of student debt in the process, which she diligently paid off in a record time after she got her first job. After learning about the importance of saving for your own retirement, she started investing $2000/year in dividend stocks, and was able to also generate 10% in annual returns.
On their 65th birthdays, John's net worth was 1,192,257.81 versus the $728,086.87 worth of quality dividend stocks which Erica owned. Despite the fact that John had invested only $20,000 in total, versus $76,000 that Erica had invested, he was able to achieve a higher amount of wealth because he had taken a full advantage of the power of compounding by investing his hard earned money as early as his freshman year in college. Even though Erica contributed money for over 37 years her nest egg was $400,000 lower than John's, because she had ten years less to utilize the power of compounding. You could also access the spreadsheet from here.
The most important point from this exercise is: start investing for your retirement as early as possible! Ask your kids to invest their first paychecks from high school jobs. And most importantly, let the money compound uninterruptedly for as long as possible. And if you want to take full advantage of compounding, Turbo Charge Your Portfolio With Reinvested Dividends.

The importance of investing for retirement as early as possible

Powerful concept but that story is not realistic. Reason being is that people never want to talk about money. Expecially people who are around the same age and do not have a close relationship :)ReplyDelete
The main point of this article is to show the readers that they should start investing as soon as possible.
However, if the readers think that this is an unrealistic story due to your above stated reasons, then the message won't reach the readers :-(
The message is great, loud and clear. Don't take me wrong, I'm just pointing out what I feel is a problem in society today regarding the way that we are socialized about money.ReplyDelete
I do agree with you on that issue. People talk to their friends about their intimate relationships, yet few of us talk about money.
It is a painful subject though. Let's talk relationships :-)

i agree with Dividend Growth Investor,ReplyDelete
This is for education purpose, if mg wants to find something to pick at, you are missing the point of the lesson. which is to invest early.

High-frequency measurements of the inductance of cusp-field single-pole heads for perpendicular recording are made out to 13.5 GHz to determine their performance. The inductance of the pole heads examined are typically 1.2-1.9 nH with a self resonance at about 7-10 GHz. Inductance versus current measurements allow construction of a nonlinear eddy-current damped, thin-film head model. Comparison is made to a longitudinal recording head of similar size and turns. The effect of the medium underlayer as part of the head return path is shown to have minimal effect on the head inductance. Contact Tri-Pad heads are used to demonstrate the changes produced by the underlayer and to demonstrate apex and yoke saturation. The contact behavior is similar to that for a longitudinal thin-film head. The frequency dependence of the pole material permeability is discussed. The conclusions provide a practical bit rate limit for the cusp-field head based on head and write channel modeling, experimental high-frequency inductance data, and spin reversal considerations.

In this letter, we propose an extension of an automatic and unsupervised change-detection method for synthetic aperture radar images we presented earlier. By analyzing a properly defined cost function, the proposed method allows the automatic detection of the number (zero, one, or two) and the values of the decision thresholds associated with changes (if any) in the log-ratio image. This cost function is the minimum value of the criterion function adopted to select the decision threshold in the log-ratio image according to a modified double-thresholding Kittler-Illingworth algorithm (implemented under the generalized Gaussian assumption for changed and unchanged classes). Experimental results carried out both on real and simulated multitemporal synthetic aperture radar images proved the effectiveness of the proposed automatic method in detecting both the number of changes to be identified (the situation of no changes is also explicitly identified) and the related threshold values

This study tested the effects of multiple ideologies on support for restrictive policies against gay and lesbian individuals and organizations and if these effects were mediated by sexual prejudice. Social dominance orientation (SDO), conservatism, and right-wing authoritarianism (RWA) each had significant direct and indirect effects. SDO had the most consistent direct effects in addition to its effects through sexual prejudice. The direct effects of conservatism were smaller and similar in size to its indirect effects through prejudice. Although the direct effect of RWA was significant for policy attitudes, its effect was entirely mediated through sexual prejudice for organization opposition. Results suggest that high-RWA individuals adopt their positions largely because of prejudice toward sexual minorities, while high-SDO individuals adopt their positions partly out of prejudice and partly because these positions perpetuate hierarchies between heterosexuals and sexual minorities. Results also diminish the principled conservatism argument that conservative positions on these policies and organizations are absent of prejudice. As policies continue to be enacted that affect the sexual minority community, research is needed to identify the underlying motivations for individuals' positions toward these policies.

Skip to comments.Ohio judge says Ford must pay dealers $2B
Posted on 06/11/2011 7:27:44 AM PDT by EBH
Ford Motor Co. must pay nearly $2 billion in damages to thousands of dealerships in a 2002 class-action lawsuit that said the automaker violated dealer agreements, an Ohio judge ruled Friday.
Cuyahoga County Common Pleas Judge Peter Corrigan in Cleveland issued the ruling based on a Feb. 11 jury determination that the company overcharged dealers for commercial trucks over an 11-year period.
The $2 billion award covers more than 3,000 dealerships and about 474,000 trucks. It includes a judgment of about $781 million and about $1.2 billion in interest.
"In awarding the dealers the amount of money they overpaid for trucks, the jury verdict places ... the dealers in the financial position contemplated by the terms of the contract," said James Lowe, a Cleveland attorney for Westgate Ford Truck Sales Inc., a dealership in Youngstown that represents the class.
Ford's annual report, filed on Feb. 28, says the class action included all dealers who purchased a 600?series or higher truck from Ford from 1987 to 1997. It says the lawsuit accused the automaker of failing to reveal that price concessions were given to some dealers.
Ford said in a Friday statement that the company will appeal.

Because the Obama Regime has picked winners and losers. They are out to get Ford for opposing their nationalized GM and Chrysler manufacturers? They have to steal what we will not give them willingly, and any excuse that hurts Ford is okay. Obama and his far left regime disgust me -what happened to the rule of law?
Because their dealer agreement says so. A contract is a contract.
Check and Balances? Nah! Obama Makes His Own Laws!
My Fellow American,
Politically, the gloves are off. Barack Hussein Obama will now GO AROUND Members of Congress and the American people via EXECUTIVE ORDERS and SECRETARIAL ORDERS because that is now the only way he will be able to push his radical agenda forward. Mr. Obama will EVADE Congress simply because he no longer CONTROLS the House of Representatives.
He will use whatever means are available to him to seize the control to legislate away from Congress. In short, he literally wants to RULE you!
Whatever means at his disposal through Executive Orders and Secretarial Orders (who ever heard of a Secretarial Order?) to implement what Congress wont entertain legislatively. Executive Orders are pretty much veto-proof unless Congress overrules the White House edicts. And, since it takes a majority in both Houses of Congress to rescind an Executive or Secretarial Order, the odds of that happening in the Harry Reid Senate are slim to none.
"...the company overcharged dealers for commercial trucks over an 11-year period."
Can we sue Detroit for overcharging us for crap vehicles since the mid-1970s ?
The Federal Gov't has been overcharging the self-sufficient and selfactivated for decades.
What if one dealer purchases more units than another? What if the Ford dealer is in a tougher market and needs a little help to get the sale from GM or FORD?
HOw much of this money will ultimately go to the dealers? BAh! Only to the attorneys.
I want to know more about the judge and the attorneys representing the dealers...
I can't imagine a Caterpillar Dealership suing Caterpillar.
Something stinks here. No loyalties?
Must be more to the story...
Taking money out of one dealer's pocket to help another dealer is a no-no. If you help one dealer, you must help them all.
I suppose the contract could contain a clause that reads, "we reserve the right to give other dealers preferential treatment over you," but who would sign it?
What rule of law? Methinks you jest.
That's baloney and sounds both French and libtard at its root. Why shouldn't Ford treat its best dealers better than it's lousy ones ? It's business, not Kindergarten.
Taking money out of one dealers pocket ? Pelosian....
Excuse me, Ford has a right to negotiate any way it pleases with each individual dealership.
If this argument is carried to its logical conclusion it would mean that any retail customer who paid more than someone else for the identical vehicle should be able to sue. Pure lunacy.
If allowed to stand this ruling will be the demise of wholesaling and volume discounts—or discounts for any reason.
Question: no matter what the Ford Co. charged the dealers for a truck, the dealer passed that price plus their profit on to the consumer. Where did the dealer get screwed??? Looks to me like the consumer got screwed.
You are excused for not understanding distribution, dealership, and franchise law. I'm not in the position to practise it either. You should be able to find someone fairly decent at it for $500/hour.
By your standards and mine, I am a patriot. I will never buy another GM vehicle. That company is dead to me because of the massive corruption in the nationalization and stiffing bondholders to reward the UAW and other big campaign donors. I will not buy a new GM and reward the criminal enterprise that GM has become, nor will I buy a used GM and support their resale value, which can convince others that a new GM is worth buying. GM can rot in its socialism, but I am boycotting them forever.
i agree with you 100%
I used to be a chevy guy while my brother was a ford gy- it made for some intersting conpetitions
But now I have to say- I LOVE FORD TRUCKS~!
Welcome to the Ford Heavy and Medium Truck Dealer CPA Class Action website
This site provides information concerning a class action brought on behalf of current and former Ford Dealers who purchased medium duty and heavy duty trucks from Ford between October 5, 1987 and the present.
What is this lawsuit about? This is an action for breach of contract brought by Westgate Ford Truck Sales, Inc. (Westgate), against Ford Motor Company (Ford). Westgate has been a Ford truck dealer in Youngstown, Ohio since 1973. Westgate instituted this lawsuit on its own behalf and as the representative of all Ford Dealers who purchased medium duty and heavy duty trucks (medium/heavy trucks) from Ford between October 5, 1987 and the present. Class Members are sometimes referred to in this Notice as the Dealers. Medium/heavy trucks are defined as trucks with a Ford series designation of 600 and above.
Westgate claims that Ford has breached the Sales and Service Agreement (referred to here as the SSA) of every Class Member. Specifically, Westgate alleges that Ford failed to comply with the product pricing provisions set forth in Paragraph 10 of every Dealers SSA. Under Paragraph 10, Ford is required to sell products to every Dealer using prices, charges and discounts that are published in advance of sale in accordance with dealer-wide Terms of Sale Bulletins. Westgate alleges that Ford violated this duty through the operation of pricing programs known as the Competitive Price Assistance Program and the Government Price Concession Program (referred to jointly as the CPA Program).
Westgate contends that around 1983, Ford began publishing to Dealers wholesale prices on medium/heavy trucks that were far in excess of the resale prices those trucks could command in the retail marketplace. This made it necessary for Dealers to ask Ford for discounts from the wholesale price in order to be able to profitably sell the trucks to retail consumers. The CPA Program was the mechanism through which Dealers asked for those discounts. There were two levels of discounts available under the CPA Program. The initial or minimum level of discount was published to all Dealers and was available on all medium/heavy trucks. This first level of CPA discount was originally known as the Rainbow Schedule and was later called Sales Advantage. When those initial discounts did not bring the Dealers wholesale price to a level below the expected retail price, the CPA Program provided for an appeal process. A Dealer could appeal to Ford to grant further price reductions known as Appeal-Level CPA.
Westgate alleges that, contrary to the duties imposed by Paragraph 10, Ford did not publish the amount of Appeal-Level CPA discount available on any truck, nor did it publish the prices of trucks receiving Appeal-Level CPA. Instead, Appeal-Level CPA was given at Fords discretion so that the maximum amount of discount available - and true net wholesale price - for a given truck was never known by the Dealers. Westgate claims Fords operation of the CPA Program made it possible for Ford to sell comparable trucks to Dealers at prices that varied widely. As a result, Ford sold like trucks to different Dealers at price differences as great as $15,000 per truck. Through this suit, the Dealers seek to recapture those differences and other losses caused by Fords breach of contract.
Ford denies all of Westgates material allegations and denies that it breached its duties under Paragraph 10. Ford claims that Appeal-Level CPA discounts were based entirely on a Dealers competitive need. Ford also contends that it satisfied its duty to publish prices and discounts by faxing CPA approvals to the Dealers, and by sending Dealers invoices for trucks after the sales were made. Alternatively, Ford claims it complied with its Paragraph 10 duties by publishing a CPA Manual.

Your knee jerk reaction to the current jerk that is running GM, if successful will likely leave you, the taxpayer holding an even bigger bag when GM does not do reasonably well financially. The fact that this guy wants gas to go up so he can sell cars none of us want in nonsense. I have several GM vehicles. They have been serviceable for me. I hate the UAW, but they didn't build the Avalanche I have currently, as it was built in Monterrey, Mexico. GM, and for that matter, the other two remaining US automakers are victims of both the UAW and the aholes that have acended to the leadership roles within their respective companies. My prediction, and it's based on recent press articles, is that the US automakers are going to leave the country. They have to, to escape the UAW and our government. And the Japanese are probably going to do the same ( just look at Mazda). They got tied up with Ford and have to build cars here in a UAW plant. But no more, they're ceasing US manufacturing all together.
It's not the current jerk, it's the jerk several jerks back and the jerks in the White House and Congress back in late 2008. The bailout and nationalization of GM were reprehensible and unforgivable, which is why I will never forgive that company or anyone else involved. The rightful claimants on GM assets were ripped off, stiffed, robbed, however you want to put it - contract law, bankruptcy law, and common law were ignored and grossly violated. It's for that reason and not because the current CEO is a jerk that I am boycotting GM for life.
Also, I believe the more costly this GM bailout turns out to be, both in federal dollars and in jobs killed by fascism, the better for America. I want even the UAW and SEIU to join decent fiscally responsible Americans in opposing this sort of governmental abuse the next time a bailout is proposed.
I agree with most of what you say, but I also believe never to say never. Neither of us know what the future holds for GM or who it's future leaders may be. Just like the government. I would not move out of the US because we have a Marxist no account for president, and I won't move out ( unlike some of our "nation's brightest" in Holllywierd) if for some inexplicable reason he stays on for four more years. You are sort of saying like the folks did after WWII, "I won't by a Japanese car" and you know how that's turned out. I will continue to shop for cars like I do everything else, look for the best value for my money.
There are times to say "never".
I have been ripped off only twice when it was enough to be worth criminal charges, and both times I prosecuted and obtained a conviction. I've been ripped off where there was either not enough money or not enough evidence, and the prosecutor wouldn't press charges, and in those cases I've refused ever again to deal with the company and encouraged others to do the same. Skip the most convenient gas station for two decades because they ripped me off once? You betcha. Boycott GM forever because they ripped off their old bondholders and are too politically connected to be prosecuted? Again, you betcha!
The differences between GM and an honest company are not now nor will they ever be enough that a sensible person would consider a GM vehicle a dramatically better deal than a competitor. If integrity mattered, why would anyone accept about the same product from a corrupt organization when they could buy from a company that does not engage in grand theft? Besides, wouldn't contributing to GM's survival encourage the fascists in our government to approve another bailout and another massive theft from the rightful owners of assets? Better to make this as expensive as possible, one time, that to have our government routinely behave as the corrupt organization that perpetrated this bailout and robbed the GM bondholders.
Those who boycotted Japanese products did so out of what was to some extent a justifiable anger, but they responded in a racist manner. With GM, my righteous anger is directed only at the criminal organization responsible for grand theft. Since the government will not do the right thing, it is our individual responsibility to respond to GM. Forever.
Either because it's a point of law that they missed or it's either a line-item or an assumption in the contract they have with one another. If it's just made up by the judge, then the judge has problems. If it's a reasonable interpretation or assumption by a dealer that they were entitled to the same rates, then Ford has a problem.
I don't understand the ruling.
They paid the negotiated price and want the same T&C's as other dealers who may have sold more vehicles and would naturally be given a price concession that other dealers didn't get.
That's the way it works in my industry. There is standard pricing along with Terms and Conditions.
You get what you negotiate for and if you negotiate nothing more than what is offered there is no obligation for the supplier to give you the same deal someone else got.
No way! That is not who business is done and how contract negotiations work.
You negotiate the deal you want.
Some are better than others.
Corrigan says Ford's use of the program breached its franchise agreements.Now, you can argue (as Ford likely will on appeal) that the judge is wrong, but you should refrain from exclaiming that it is not how "business is done."
"Westgate showed that the CPA program, through its scheme of unrealistically high published wholesale prices and secretive unpublished discounts, systematically violated the ... requirement that Ford sell medium and heavy trucks to dealers at prices and discounts that were published in accordance with all dealer Terms of Sale Bulletins." [emphasis added]
I understand distribution, dealership and franchise law.
Not all dealerships or franchisee's are equal.
BTW, I am in a position to practice it as a dealer for two VoIP suppliers and the equipment. They handed us a standard contract and I balked until I got what I wanted.
Everyone else probably pays more than us.
Same thing with the agent contracts we have. I negotiated very different %'s of pay and changed the T&C's to something closer to what I wanted.
On the ISP side of our business, same thing.
Our construction business doesn't really have the ability to negotiated better terms for parts and supplies. You can get slightly better pricing but ultimately the advantage comes from negotiated terms with the customer and our ability to beat the estimated time for completion.
On our maintenance company we have different deals with different companies. Not so favorable for us at this time but as we grow that business and understand the market better we will be able to negotiate more favorable terms.
That's business.
BTW, we run and agent business from our VoIP business and only one person ever bothered to negotiate terms that made sense from his side and it's worked out well.
Well done, it only took 24 years.
Sort of like some companies get healthcare waivers and some don't.
I may very well be unaware but that is my experience in telecom services and equipment.
You get the deal you negotiate for and agree upon.
When we started with one wholesale provider they refused to bugde. So I told them will perform "x" and what would be the T&C's based on our achievement.
They told us (I was shocked) and I asked for a tiered performance but that the last two tiers will have to be higher.
We will provide many of the services they normally would (I charge for it as part of the package or by event).
There were some other elements but ultimately they agreed and they agreed to some other things.
I have a friend, who is a competitor but he absolutely didn't get a deal anywhere like ours.
We even charge our clients more than most of our competitors but we are a trusted advisor relationship and there's a cost associated with that.
Our work on the telecom, ISP and Construction businesses are custom. Each client has unique requirements and their environments are unique.
When buy the equipment, cabling, parts and supplies are about the same from supplier to supplier.
Even when we were in the cabling business there were no real price advantages from suppliers. I had a couple of competitors who had better pricing on supplies but that never made the difference in the deal or the ultimate profit.
Ooops, gotta take of something....
>> "If I negotiate a price cut/concession...why would the terms of that deal need to be revealed to my competition?" <<
Because every Franchised Dealer has the right of expectation of an equal footing. Why else would they sign the contract?
If Ford wished to play favorites, they should have included that provision in all of their dealer contracts.
This has nothing to do with Obama.
>> "What if one dealer purchases more units than another?" <<
That's in the contract, its called "Dealer Incentives," and it is not done in secret.
Cuyahoga County judge Corrigan? My bet is that he's a liberal hack. Ford should appeal.
>> "Excuse me, Ford has a right to negotiate any way it pleases with each individual dealership." <<
No, they do not. They have a contractual arrangement, and must abide by it.
The current "GM" cannot be a victim of the UAW, since they are a division of the UAW.
>> "They paid the negotiated price and want the same T&Cs as other dealers who may have sold more vehicles and would naturally be given a price concession that other dealers didnt get." <<
You have zero understanding of franchise business.
More than likely, it may have something to do with the closing of 1 or more Ford facilities that are within the boundaries of Cuyahoga County (Cleveland area). Last time I drove by the Brookpark engine plant, the parking lot was completely empty. That's a huge facility. That was last year, but it may well remain empty. Ol' Corrigan might be seeking revenge for Ford leaving his town.
You know, I am actually getting pretty tired of people telling me I don't know anything.
I have owned everything from a Quickstop to my latest company REO management services.
Since we make a lot of money and have for more than 30 years and are pretty much debt free I'll take my experience over the word of everyone else, until I am proven wrong.
There is a standard contract price and there is a negotiated price.
You get what you negotiate for and if you don't understand that then it's not surprising you don't see my point of view.
So tell me, oh smarter than me, what do you do for work?
Apparently Ford also doesn't understand the franchise business.
Why aren't you advising them?
You could make a killing telling everyone they don't anything.
Apparently Ford also doesnt understand the franchise business.
Why arent you advising them?
You could make a killing telling everyone they dont know anything.
Why, knowledge like that is invaluable. Particularly for its vacuous and broadly unspecific nature.
It's just the kind of useful information I look for that can really protect my business while putting it on the right path to accelerate growth.
Thanks again for your detailed warning.
Price-fixing laws require a supplier to make comparable offers to all its equivalent customers. For instance, a company that sells C cell batteries would have to make comparable offers to drug stores, another set of comparable offers to electronics stores, etc.
You have to be able to demonstrate you dealt evenly with these customers.
Or the many run of the '69 Cameros that go for $40K or more, all those SS and SS/RS models?
Or maybe we should pick on Ford, whose original GT40 won LeMans four times in a row, from 1966 to 1969. It was pricy in the day but now goes for $100,000.
Here's two for sale at Hemmings.

The catalogue of damage wrought by Labour's education policy over the past 35 years is so widely acknowledged as to be scarcely worth repeating.
But now even the specious ideological project that drove the vandalism would seem to be in doubt, as MPs prepare, through an amendment to the Charities Bill, to force independent schools to subsidise more pupils from less prosperous backgrounds, or forfeit their charitable status.
That this initiative should come from the very Government that wiped assisted places off the educational map, and did its best to rob Northern Ireland of its cherished grammar schools, is a prize-winning piece of hypocrisy.
But that it should also come from the party responsible for comprehensive schools and the abolition of the direct grant, the party that once insisted that the poor but able young must "rise with their class, not out of it" – this is not just hypocrisy, but cultural amnesia of a debilitating order.
Admittedly, the primary motive for the amendment being cooked up by Hilary Armstrong this week is not to benefit deserving children but to harass and undermine the hated public schools.
But the end result still promises to save a significant number of children from inferior teaching and the brutalising lack of discipline they would otherwise suffer, and turn them instead into articulate, well-rounded citizens, truly risen "out of their class".
Independent schools should not have to demonstrate further the contribution they make in setting and maintaining standards the state has long since abandoned.
None the less, we welcome any extension of the charitable function they already fulfil through scholarships and bursaries, just as we welcome the broadening of opportunities for the talented. But as for Labour, which does it hate more: good schools or clever children? It really should make up its mind.

Poet, academic and runner Suzanne Zelazo reads from her Coach House collection Parlance and tells Rabble.ca radio book lounge contributor Matt Shaw about her work, her readership, her influences and the way breath can tie poetry to your workout.
Listen at the Rabble radio book lounge at http://www.rabble.ca/reviews/review.shtml?x=58408.
Parlance is an accomplished first book. Zelazo crafts succinct prose poems that wear the influence of the L=A=N=G=U=A=G=E school but owe more to Gertrude Stein. At its best, Zelazo's prose is biting, possessed of a sharp, confident grace, but from time to time the poems are so cold and carefully wrought they appear bloodless and lack a certain visceral acuity.

Everyone has heard the news and it's inspired the same bookish panic in all of us. A strike is brewing in the hearts, minds and on contract negotiation tables of Canadian postal workers. Although it hasn't been confirmed, the town criers have been using words like 'looming,' which has us a little worried. But we're forging on the only way we know how – a massive ebook sale! For the month of July, all of our ebooks will be 25% off.
We're excited to announce that Emily M. Keeler will assume the role of series editor for the Exploded Views nonfiction series. Keeler, who takes over the series editor role originated by Jason McBride, is the founding editor of Little Brother, an award-winning literary magazine, and is formerly the books editor of Canada's National Post.
A hearty and well-deserved congratulations to Ben Ladouceur, the winner of the 2016 Gerald Lampert Memorial Award for his debut collection of poetry Otter!
Congratulations to Jordan Tannahill, Weyni Mengesha, and Patrick Lavender for their excellent showing at the 2016 Dora Mavor Moore Awards!
Reviewing Christian Bök's The Xenotext: Book 1 for American Scientist, Michael Leong calls the book 'at once rigorously scientific and rigorously literary.' He goes on to write that 'Bök's work is an important bridge not only between conservative formalists and cutting-edge conceptualists but between poetic and scientific communities.

With technology scaling, copper (Cu) interconnect dimensions begin to come into the range of mean free path of electron typically 40nm. This results in surface and grain boundary scattering. Owing to these scattering phenomena resistivity of Cu begins to increase. This drives us to look for new materials for future very large scale integration (VLSI) interconnects. Mixed carbon nanotube (CNT) bundle has superior properties like current carrying capacity and conductivity compared to Cu interconnect. It is the mixture of single wall carbon nanotubes (SWCNTs) and multi-wall carbon nanotubes (MWCNTs). This is due to the nature of the bottom-up fabrication process. This paper presents capacitive analysis for mixed CNT bundle with respect to various process parameters viz. average diameter, inner to outer diameter ratio and probability of metallic tubes of bundle at 32nm technology node. The optimum values of these parameters provide minimum bundle capacitance. Results show that capacitance of the bundle is smaller compared to that of Cu for intermediate and global interconnect levels. It is also found that with technology scaling from 45nm to 22nm, bundle capacitance increases which is unlike the case of Cu interconnect. Furthermore, the bundle capacitance remains smaller than copper counterpart at these Nano-regime technologies.

Upton Cheyney Chilli and Cider festival is based on a Chilli Farm which is well established. Not too far, maybe a few miles from the Bitton railway cycle track, so can be accessed by bike for those of you who are keen cyclists. Local ciders, delicious local foods and a BBQ, Chilli eating competition and take a tour of the chilli farm. 6 pounds a ticket, you will need to book your own: www.uptonchilli.co.uk. Unfortunately the evening event has sold out. :-( but there is a pre-free event 7pm to 11pm the evening before if you fancy it. Drinks in the Barn.
This is also listed as a cycling event in Sociable Cycling Group (Bristol) see: http://www.meetup.com/bristolcyclists/events/201868582
Hi All. I intend to cycle and be at Chilli Festival at 11am. Will try and get a table for us, there are usually ones by the bar. If not I will be lingering by the tables and once we have all assembled we can then have a look around. The cycling group won't arrive until 12.30 but will be in contact with them so can mingle with them when they arrive. My mobile no is

I will be cycling from Midford through the two tunnels then hopefully pick up the railway cycle track.
cycling + cider = exercise + intoxication = bliss!
hopefully some good music there. Pity about the evening tickets - I wonder if there is any way of getting in now, or anything partyish going on locally afterwards? The BBQ meetup at saltford marina earlier this summer was really great fun with a band on all day and a disco at night.
