Best Food Truck
1. The Lime Truck
Locations throughout Orange County, 310-704-6413 thelimetruck.com
[IMAGE4]• The Irvine-based truck serves lunch Tuesday through Saturday and late-night grub three nights a week.
• Three standards on the menu include the Yum Yum lamb sandwich, a taco made with 10-hour roasted pork and the truck's signature carnitas fries.
• Chef Jason Quinn, 24, and his staff turn out new specials daily.
Why they are No. 1: "We have some of the most loyal and dedicated fans imaginable," Quinn said. "I had this fear that there would be days when no one would come, but that never happened." The truck has a diverse staff, including a cook with a pastry degree, one with an Asian-cooking background and one who cooked at home with his mom.
Claim to fame: "We use the best ingredients we can get and do as little as possible to them," Quinn said. "Some of it is high in fat, but we respect the ingredients. We do everything from scratch." They serve signature drinks like limeade, and juices such as cactus pear and kiwi. Why Lime? "My founding partner wanted the truck to be bright lime green. It was an impromptu name."
Fan favorite: "As a renown physician, I am very specific with the foods that enter my body, especially foods that come from a truck. At first I was a bit hesitant until my taste buds erupted with a plethora of flavor and texture. Wonderful taste and products at an affordable price. Highly recommend." – Greg Allen, M.D., West Hollywood.
Fun fact: Die-hard Lime Truck fans constantly check the menu online and will drive two hours to try something new.
2. Kogi Korean BBQ-To-Go
Locations throughout Orange County, 323-315-0253 kogibbq.com
[IMAGE3]• The Kogi truck serves Korean/Mexican tacos, pairing Korean barbecue with homemade tortillas, fresh vegetables and salsas.
•The Naranja, one of five Kogi trucks, serves Orange County, delivering high-end food at street-level prices.
Claim to fame: The short-rib slider combines caramelized short ribs with sesame mayo, cheese, salsa roja and a cabbage-romaine slaw. "You can have it with spicy pork or chicken or marinated tofu as well," said Alice Shin, creative director of Kogi. "We make fresh salsas every day. It's like a salad with a taco on top."
Fan favorite: "My favorite Kogi meal is their kimchi quesadilla and the Kobi short-rib burrito. It's taking classic Korean/Asian flavors and mixing it with traditional Mexican treats and taking it to a new level. Their success has encouraged many chefs to start food trucks, which has elevated the whole mobile dining experience overall." — Jason Iehl, Irvine.
Fun fact: A top seller is the sweet chili-chicken quesadilla with salsa naranja – which was developed in honor of O.C. when Kogi first rolled here. It includes fresh-squeezed orange juice, limes, Thai chilies and Thai basil.
3. Dogzilla
Locations throughout Orange County, 714-805-8857 dogzillahotdogs.com
[IMAGE2]• Hot dog toppings run from Yakisoba noodles to tangy Japanese barbecue sauce to roasted seaweed strips.
Claim to fame: The namesake hot dog is the all-beef Dogzilla Dog, topped with avocado, grilled onions, bacon bits, Japanese mayo and teriyaki sauce. "We're always working on the recipes," said Martin Tse, owner/cook. "It's all the stuff we grew up with."
Fan favorite: "The hot dogs are traditional, but then they are not traditional because they have Japanese ingredients on top. It's sort of East meets West. Familiar but not at the same time!" – Jeff Su, Torrance
Fun fact: Tse's parents wouldn't let him play basketball unless there were Asian people on the team, so he found a Japanese church league. "I am Chinese, but I grew up Japanese because I wanted to play sports."
— Reported by Rebecca Allen
Critic's choice: The Burnt Truck
Stops around Orange County, theburnttruck.com
By CLAUDIA KOERNER, THE ORANGE COUNTY REGISTER
[IMAGE1]When I'm going through choices on a menu, I often joke I want just a couple of bites of everything.
At the Burnt Truck, one of Orange County's most creative gourmet food trucks, that's actually a reasonable request.
The truck specializes in sliders, offering a classic cheeseburger, but going on to essentialize virtually any cuisine into three bites between two slices of bread.
Every slider starts with the same sweet Hawaiian roll, but that's where the similarities end. Each tiny sandwich is truly unique, showcasing a variety of fresh ingredients. Crunchy fried chicken is topped with sweet gravy, and mashed potatoes serve as a condiment. A Vietnamese slider channels a banh mi, offering sweet pork, garlic spread, pickled carrots and daikon, cucumber and cilantro. Other specials include a beef dip with provolone and horseradish, and a meatball sandwich featuring fresh mozzarella and a single basil leaf. Even spilling with ingredients, the sliders are fairly easy to eat on the go – a hallmark of a good food truck menu.
The truck offers a rotating menu of five to six sandwiches, often including specials to fit in with upcoming holidays. Diners can add a quail egg to any slider, and it's an absolute must on the cheeseburger.
Another plus: The small size leaves room for other eating at bigger food truck events. If you're like me, though, you won't want to stop until you've tried every item on Burnt Truck's menu.

You can find courses of one month duration where you can get a certificate but according to my opinion you cannot master in any art in one month. But you can learn the process that how it can be done. After that you have to go through constant practice and learning. Keep on practicing and find out your distinct style.

Council District 3

District 3 News and Updates
Jobs & Justice: The Vote on Coal
On Monday, I presided over a historic special hearing of the Oakland City Council where my colleagues and I made the unanimous decision (7-0 with Brooks absent) to protect resident and worker health by imposing a ban on the transloading, handling and storage of coal and petroleum in a proposed new terminal at the former Oakland Army Base (OAB).
Making this decision was no easy matter. The Council weighed the information provided seriously. We hired an independent firm, Environmental Services Associates (ESA) to complete a thorough analysis of the of the testimonies provided by the project sponsor, Terminal Logistic Solutions (TLS), hundreds of residents and health experts, including the Alameda County Public Health Department. The ESA analysis concluded that the proposed coal terminal will further exacerbate air quality concerns in West Oakland. The Administration's analysis further concluded that the proponent's proposed mitigations (e.g. the use of covered rail cars to contain fugitive coal dust) were insufficient and that "there are currently no enforceable provisions from the U.S. Department of Transportation Surface Transportation Board, the Federal Railroad Administration, or from railroads themselves to require a coal supplier, a terminal developer or operator in Oakland to utilize any dust controls for coal shipped from Utah. Similarly, there are currently no enforceable provisions for a coke supplier or a terminal developer or operator in Oakland to utilize any dust controls for coke shipped via rail from suppliers in northern California." In the end, we concluded that there is no viable means for the sponsor to protect residents or workers from the associated risks.
Our fight is for both jobs and environmental justice. The neighborhoods where I live and represent suffer pervasive economic and health disparities. According to a 2015 Alameda County Health department report http://www.acphd.org/media/401560/cumulative-health-impacts-east-west-oakland.pdf, West Oakland's overall rate of asthma emergency department (ED) visits is almost two times the rate for Alameda County as a whole. Numerous scientific reports reveal that asthma and cancer rates here are among the highest in the state. I reject the notion that our communities need to suffer additional harm in order to create jobs.
I believe in good jobs that produce living wages and healthy working conditions. My concerns about the transport of volatile cargo are not new. In 2014, I co-authored a resolution that received unanimous support opposing the transport of coal, oil, petcoke (a byproduct of the oil refining process) and other hazardous materials by railways and waterways within the City. We have been joined in this effort to improve public health and safety by an impressive cadre of scientists and elected leaders including Senator Loni Hancock, and Assemblymembers Tony Thurmond and Rob Bonta. We remain committed to the successful completion of the OAB development and to the promised opportunity for good jobs as Prologis, CWS, CASS, and OMSS move forward with plans that will yield thousands of logistic, transportation, recycling and support jobs without coal.
My office has received hundreds of emails, phone calls and letters from Oaklanders (and beyond) expressing strong feelings about the proposed coal terminal at the former Oakland Army Base. Your voices, your concerns and your wisdom were at the forefront of this process. We heard you. Thank you.
With Deep Oakland Love and Pride
Council President Lynette Gibson McElhaney


text: In our tests, the IS came up short as a sports sedan. Handling is secure but not engaging enough to run with true sports sedans. Ride comfort is neither tied down nor plush. Even the punchy IS 350 is underwhelming to drive. For 2016 a new 255-hp V6 powers the IS 300. It gives the car more zip, but its fuel economy of 20 mpg overall is uncompetitive in the class. Still, the interior is extremely cramped, and getting in and out is an ungraceful chore. All-wheel-drive versions have a pronounced hump by the driver's right leg. Fit and finish is okay but not a standout, and the mouselike infotainment controller is distracting to use. A 2.0-liter turbo four-cylinder is available, but only in rear-wheel drive. Reliability has been above average, but the IS scores too low to be recommended.

|Re: SOAP over HTTPS
|Sat, 19 Aug 2000 03:15:32 GMT
It was I! I have a working version based on the 730 CVS tree + Steven's new RPCServlet. The required code changes are really minimal (the new servlet made the biggest difference :-). A request must be with an https: protocol. Unfortunately all the current sample's URL lines must change because a 'new URL' can not be created there with https. A 'sanitizer' method must be called which also saves the https:URI and passes it directly to the HTTPUtils.java module behind all the other intervening code. I also use http1.1 on https URLs with connection keep-alive and now repeated connections (like for the calculator sample) are instantaneous since NO additional PKI re-negotiation is required! I do not believe that there are any export issues since I use Sun's standard JCE APIs. The encryption strength depends only on the respective jar code which has both domestic and export level encryption strength versions on Sun's site. I tested the code on Linux (with IBM's V1.3 Java) + Sun's JCEE1.0.1 jars, and against Apache V1.3.12 (source build with mod_ssl + OpenSSL + RSAREF + self generated 128 bit full strength Certificate + Tomcat 3.2B1) All SOAP samples seem to be working over both encrypted and normal connections. Netscape also accepts the certificate and does an https connection to the site! Since the code is against an 'older' CVS base I just will post it here ASAP and make the changes eventually against the new V2.0 JSOAP base. Regards - George "Steven J. McDowall" wrote: > I seem to remember SOMEONE saying they were starting to do something w.r.t > HTTPS SOAP..

West London's Lyric Hammersmith is holding a Secret Theatre season while its building is redeveloped, using the upheaval as a chance to explore new ways of working. First up are two classic texts, re-imagined – and billed as Show 1 and Show 2 so the audience may watch "unsullied by expectations" (although in an age of Twitter, they haven't stayed secret long).
Director Sean Holmes has said that he intends to challenge the very structures of British theatre, which is to be applauded; a fresh, questioning approach is surely always a good thing. But, having seen Show 1 (pictured, right), I feel compelled to report that it didn't feel very fresh. Actors snuffle around in underwear, throw water about, run in circles at the end of a tether ... There's a whiff of a student production's bid to be "experimental", but it'll take more than dancing around in animal onesies to appeal to the yoof. I'm sure the process of exploration was valuable to the ensemble, but it didn't seem to benefit the audience much.
Which highlights a wider problem with such projects. London audiences are already over-catered for; you could go to the theatre every night and still not have an exhaustive view of our capitals' thriving, varied scene (which, what's more, features plenty of reinventions of classic texts; right now, there's a wild Woyzeck in Punchdrunk's The Drowning Man, while a bonkers update of Edward II plays at the National). So why shell out for the random unknown? The same question was prompted by the Royal Court's similarly shake-it-up Open Court season, which included a series of one-off, semi-staged performances, unannounced till the curtain went up.
And it is a case of shelling out: a £10 or £15 ticket may not be expensive by West End standards, but it's not insignificant if you're a student, unemployed, low-waged or endlessly interning – as many of Sean Holmes's desired young audience almost certainly will be.
The night I watched Show 1, the stalls were half-full, and the crowd was indeed young(ish). But that crowd was also, I'd guess, an already-invested, knowledgeable, theatrical in-crowd: 20-or-30-something arts professionals who want in on the debate.
It's great that that debate is going on, but Secret Theatre hardly seems likely to expand the terms, or the audience.

This newly built, spacious and modern penthouse apartment is located virtually on the Peñoncillo beach, which is a less crowded beach than the Ferrara and Cenicero beaches to the West. The roof terrace has a stunning view over the sea to the South and the mountains to the North. Torrox Costa is claimed to have the best climate in Europe with long, sunny summers and short mild winters. The town offers a wide variety of shops, supermarkets, restaurants, bars and a market (Mondays). The Paseo Marítimo (promenade) along the beach has excellent places for eating out.
From the apartment it is a 5-10 minute walk to the center of the town and a 10 minute drive to Nerja (to the East). The apartment includes a fully furnished roof terrace with dining place, sofa, sunbeds and barbecue, and a balcony with a small dining place. Inside is a spacious living room with wide screen TV and DVD-player, two bedrooms with lots of storage, one en suite bathroom and one toilet with shower, and a well equipped kitchen with large sets of plates, glasses, etc. The apartment sleeps up to six people and is ideal for families, with plenty in the surrounding to see, discover and enjoy.
The seaview from the balcony and roof terrace is splendid. Torrox-Costa is a calm town with lots of restaurants and pubs. For more intense nightlife (i.e. discos and night clubs) we recommend the neighbouring village Nerja.

New York Times shames itself: Attacking Wikileaks' Assange for Doing What Journalists are Supposed to Do

While I periodically have written commentaries dissecting and pillorying news articles in the New York Times to expose their bias, hypocrisy half-truths and lies, I generally ignore their editorials since these are overtly opinions of the management, and one expects them to display the elitist and neo-liberal perspective of the paper's publisher and senior editors.

ISIS and U.S. Weaponry: At Home and Abroad
When someone commits mass murder in the United States and is tied, however significantly, to a foreign terrorist group, there remains a section of the U.S. population willing to recognize and point out that no ideology, fit of hatred, or mental derangement can do the same damage without high-tech weaponry that it does with it. Why does this understanding vanish into the ether of ignorance and apathy at the water's edge?
ISIS videos display U.S. guns, U.S. Humvees, U.S. weaponry of all sorts. The profits and political corruption that bring those weapons into existence are the same as those that litter the United States with guns. Shouldn't we be bothered by both?
The same politicians who claim they'd like to restrict U.S. gun sales have flooded the world markets with the weaponry of mass slaughter. President Obama's administration has approved more weapons sales abroad than any other administration since World War II. Over 60 percent of those weapons have been sold to the Middle East. Add to that total huge quantities of U.S. weapons in the hands of the United States or its proxies in the Middle East -- or formerly in their hands but seized by ISIS.
Secretary of State Hillary Clinton waived restrictions at the State Department on selling weapons to Saudi Arabia, Algeria, Kuwait, United Arab Emirates, Oman, and Qatar, all states that had donated to the Clinton Foundation. Saudi Arabia had chipped in at least $10 million, and Boeing added another $900,000 as Secretary Clinton made it her mission to get Saudi Arabia the planes with which it would attack Yemen.
In the past five years, the United States has sold weapons to at least 96 countries. As of 2011 the United States accounted for 79% of the value of transfer agreements to ship weapons to governments in the Middle East, 79% also to poor nations around the world, and 77% of the value of total agreements to ship weapons to other countries, according to the Congressional Research Service. By 2014, those percentages had dropped a bit but remained over 50%.
In 2013, the big war profiteers spent $65 million lobbying Congress. There's a big headline when the National Rifle Association spends $3 million. We ask if black lives matter. In addition, do foreign lives matter?
Toddlers with guns kill more people in the United States than do foreign terrorists -- even adding in domestic terrorists somehow tied to foreign ideas. But we don't hate toddlers. We don't bomb toddlers and whoever's near them. We don't think of toddlers as inherently evil or backward or belonging to the wrong religion. We forgive them instantly, without struggle. It's not their fault the guns were left lying around.
But is it the fault of ISIS that Iraq was destroyed? That Libya was thrown into chaos? That the region was flooded with U.S.-made weapons? That future ISIS leaders were tortured in U.S. camps? That life was made into a nightmare? Maybe not, but it is their fault they murder people. They are adults. They know what they are doing.
True enough. But could they do it without the weapons?
On the domestic scene, we are able to recognize that other nations have conflict, hatred, and crime, but that -- in the absence of all the guns -- the crimes do less damage. Australia got rid of its guns following a killing less deadly than Orlando. Now a gun in Australia costs more than anyone would be likely to get out of an armed robbery. Now Australia has no mass killings, apart from its participation in U.S. wars.
On the foreign scene, can we recognize that regions armed to the teeth with U.S. weapons, wars with U.S. weapons on both sides, and CIA and Pentagon proxies fighting each other in Syria are not the inevitable result of backwardness in Arab culture, but rather the result of giving free rein to merchants of death?

Eichler home featured in book lures crowds
Houses built in the style of post-World War II developer Joseph Eichler draw attention when they come up for sale. One that recently hit the market in Orange also happens to grace the cover of a glossy book showcasing midcentury homes. And the interiors were remodeled by a well-known Orange County restaurant designer.
That buzz brought out the crowds. More than 100 people streamed into an open house last Sunday afternoon.
"The first hour, it was like a museum," said Doug Kramer of RE/MAX Real Estate Specialists, who is listing the home along with his wife, Rochelle Kramer, of the same firm. "They were just flooding in here."
The house is priced at $810,000.
Originally designed by renowned architects A. Quincy Jones and Frederick Emmons, the 2,066-square foot "California Modern" style house at 5122 E. Elsinore Ave. was built in 1964. The four-bedroom home, in the Fairhills neighborhood, has typical Eichler features: post and beam construction, rooms surrounding an atrium entry and glass walls. The 8,276-square-foot lot includes a sizeable backyard with a kidney-shaped swimming pool.
The cover of "Atomic Ranch: Design Ideas for Stylish Ranch Homes" features a photo of the home, its interior glowing through the glass at night. A chapter in the book describes how Todd and Mindy Hatch gutted and redesigned the home after buying it in 2003. They removed worn mahogany paneling, knocked down walls to create a large, open floor plan and installed a "modest priced Italian kitchen." The couple also put in dark stained walnut hardwood floors, along with poured-in-place terrazzo flooring in some areas.
Todd Hatch, of Hatch Design Group in Costa Mesa, designs hotel and restaurant interiors. His projects have included King's Fish House, Lazy Dog Café, 3-Thirty-3 Waterfront in Newport Beach and the Water Grill restaurants in downtown Los Angeles and Santa Monica.
He did most of the remodeling on the house himself. After he sold it in 2007, the new owners maintained his design work, Doug Kramer said.
Among those touring the house last week was a mother of two who lives in an Eichler home around the corner. "People are drawn to them not just because of their history, but because of their functionality," Laura Castro said.
With glass walls providing views of rooms throughout her home, she said, "I can see my children anywhere they're playing."

In 1992, the UK label Stern's released the first of two groundbreaking compilations called Women of Mali. Subtitled "The Wassoulou Sound", they were partly prompted by the massive international success of the young singer Oumou Sangaré. The albums showcased Sangaré and other stars of a new rootsy, but popular sound then emerging from West Africa. Among them was the grainy-voiced singer Coumba Sidibe, who had been the first to achieve success with the style nationally in the mid-1970s and had earned herself the nickname "Queen of Wassoulou", along with several other respectful epithets.
Sidibe was born in the village of Koninko, in Mali's southern Wassoulou region, where her mother was a traditional singer and her paternal uncle a well-known dancer of sogoninkun, a spectacular percussion/dance style associated with harvest festivals. In this environment, she began to sing from the age of seven and immediately showed talent. By 1977, her reputation was such that she was recruited into l'Ensemble Instrumental National du Mali – a state-sponsored "orchestra" created to represent the nation's various folkloric traditions.
Sidibe was their first featured singer to represent folkloric material from her native region, thus giving exposure to Wassoulou styles around Mali in an unprecedented way. By the early 1980s, with government support waning, many musicians were forced to make a living in other ways, and Sidibe struck out with her own group Le Super Mansa de Wassoulou, which at one point included Oumou Sangaré as a chorus singer.
It was also during this period that Sidibe teamed up with family friends Alata Brulaye and (much) later Oumar Diakite, both credited with popularising the kamelengoni or "youth harp" – the former considered by many to be its inventor. Based on the older, more traditional dosongoni, or hunters' harp, its plunking, funky notes would eventually become synonymous with the Wassoulou sound.
The popularity of this neo-traditional style grew to such an extent that it challenged the dominance of the country's jelis – the music-making "caste" whose hereditary role as "praise singers" and musicians has been at the heart of professional Malian music since the 13th century. In Wassoulou, however, they did not have a monopoly on music, and a new generation of (mostly female) artists referred to themselves as kono ("songbirds").
The jelis' more contemporary songs – often directed at the military or patrons such as wealthy businessmen and politicians – stood in contrast to those of the kono, who generally addressed more down-to-earth concerns, such as romance and women's rights. "Cultivate a good heart and your life will be happy" was the advice Sidibe often dispensed in her many traditionally inspired compositions. Even so, she also recorded songs in praise of the presidents of both Mali and Ivory Coast.
Despite eventually releasing some eight albums, and spending parts of her career in Abidjan, Paris and New York, Sidibe's powerful presence unfortunately never graced a UK stage. Nor did she achieve the same kind of success as several other Wassoulou artists who followed in her footsteps, such as Sangaré, Sali Sidibe, Nahawa Doumbia and Issa Bagayogo. She eventually settled in the New York area, where she had regular gigs at a number of venues.

Does anybody know how to save passwords in IE? I never see a dialog box pop up asking to save passwords.
Also, at my work, I connect to a network which requires giving username and password to connect. I see the Wi-fi network in Wi-fi settings, I can connect and it says "go to browser". But the page that it brings up has fields for username and password but no submit button. Sometimes it does, other times it does not.
Can that be fixed?
Is there a way to save username/password on that page?

Current Products
The all-new 2016 Chevrolet Spark is a completely redesigned version of itself, strengthening its exceptional reputation as a mini-car with a great deal to offer. From new available safety features that help protect those inside to a more efficient powertrain, the Spark gives customers features and technology that aren't typically offered in its segment.
The Spark is sold in more than 40 markets around the world, with global sales of more than 1 million.
"Chevrolet is fast becoming one of the world's most important mini- and small-car manufacturers, offering customers around the globe a new road to the refinement, efficiency and connectivity features that resonate with them," says Alan Batey, president, GM North America.
The new Spark has a sleeker appearance, thanks to a slightly longer wheelbase, and an overall height that's about 40 mm (1.6 inches) lower than the previous model. The lower profile reduces aerodynamic drag to help improve efficiency and interior changes maintain the Spark's traditionally generous headroom.
It is also built on an all-new, more robust architecture that serves as the foundation for its more sophisticated driving experience. The stronger body structure enables engineers to tune ride and handling more precisely, for greater feelings of control and refinement, while fostering a quieter ride.
New smartphone projection technology on Spark's MyLink system displays content from Apple iPhone 5 or later models on the multicolour screen through the Android Auto and Apple CarPlay features. Supported apps for the systems include phone, messages, maps, music and compatible third-party apps.
New phone integration technology displays content from Apple iPhone 5 or later models on the multicolor screen through the Android Auto and Apple CarPlay features. Supported apps for the systems include phone, messages, maps, music and compatible third-party apps.
"At its core, the new Spark is still the fun, agile urban car that made the first-generation model so popular, but it delivers that fun driving experience with greater sophistication," said Sam Basile, executive chief engineer. "And while it's a truly global car, it is targeted for more developed vehicle markets, allowing engineers to focus more precisely on the materials and technologies that resonate with customers in those markets."
Additional new and enhanced vehicle features include:
Design details
With the instantly recognizable face of a contemporary global Chevrolet, the 2016 Spark is distinguished by a sleeker proportion and more sophisticated aesthetics.
The lower roof height reduces the characteristic upright look of many mini-cars, while a "shrink-wrapped" body – with the wheels pushed to the edges of the fenders – contribute to a more substantial, firmly planted presence.
An evolution of Chevrolet's signature dual-port grille is flanked by large, elliptical headlamps that sweep back into the front fenders. The headlamps have a highly detailed appearance that contribute to the Spark's more sophisticated design.
"In short, the Spark has grown up," says Michael Simcoe, GMIO vice president of design. "It retains a youthful flair, but it's a more refined design that reflects the maturation of the global mini-car market and customers' desires for richly styled and highly contented choices."
A palette of bold exterior colours remains, with three new colours – Toasted Marshmallow, Kalamata and Splash – added to the mix, depending on the market.
Inside, designers matched the lowered roof height by adjusting the hip-point dimensions for the seats, maintaining the ample headroom of the previous model and offering comparable spaciousness with a more engaging driving position.
"In addition to maintaining the Spark's signature roominess, the new seating position contributes to its more sophisticated driving experience," Simcoe says. "You have a greater feeling of sitting in the seats rather than on them."
There's also a more sophisticated look and feel to the interior, thanks to upgraded materials and greater attention to detail, including everything from the higher-quality fabrics to higher-density seat foam that enhance comfort and durability.
It's a more contemporary environment, too, with an all-new instrument panel design – with an advanced LCD display – and featuring a prominent "centre stack" for the infotainment and climate system controls. The Spark's signature colour-matched instrument panel décors are updated with the new model and the previously round air outlets are now trapezoidal, adding to the more contemporary design.
The Spark's all-new MyLink radio features a capacitive-touch colour display, with a simple and intuitive icon-based interface similar to what most customers are used to with their smartphone and other electronic devices. And like a smartphone, the capacitive-touch display allows them to swipe, pinch and perform other similar gestures for quick, easy operation.
New volume control and other physical buttons reduce complexity and enhance the system's intuitiveness.
Apple CarPlay and Android Auto compatibility
Spark's 7-inch MyLink infotainment system gives owners a smart and simple way to access Android Auto and Apple CarPlay, leveraging the features customers use the most.
Apple CarPlay takes the iPhone features customers want to access while driving and puts them on the vehicle's display in a smart, simple manner. That allows drivers to make calls, send and receive messages and listen to music right from the touchscreen or by voice via Siri. Apple CarPlay supported apps include Phone, Messages, Maps, Music and compatible third-party apps. A full list of those apps is at Apple.com/ios/carplay.
Android Auto is built around Google Maps, Google Now and the ability to talk to Google, as well as a growing audio and messaging app ecosystem that includes WhatsApp, Skype, Google Play Music, Spotify, and podcast players. A full list of supported apps is available at Android.com/auto.
Many features for both applications can be controlled via voice commands through a button on the steering wheel, helping drivers spend more time with eyes on the road and hands on the wheel.
All-new engine
The 2016 Spark is powered by an all-new 1.4L engine that is part of GM's new, global family of Ecotec small-displacement engines. It offers an estimated 98 horsepower (73 kW) – a 16-percent increase over the previous model.
Engineered to deliver strong performance with excellent efficiency, the new Ecotec engine family represents a clean-sheet design and engineering process, leveraging the diverse experience of GM's global resources.
"The new Ecotec architecture represents the most advanced and efficient family of small-car gas engines in GM's history," said Tom Sutter, global chief engineer. "Along with performance and efficiency targets, we've also aimed for segment-challenging refinement with low noise and vibration – and we've hit the bulls-eye."
Spark's new 1.4L features an aluminum cylinder block and head, which helps reduce the vehicle's overall mass to enhance performance and efficiency. The cylinder head also incorporates an integrated exhaust manifold, which further reduces weight – an attribute that contributes to increased vehicle efficiency and a more favorable front-to-rear weight balance, for a more responsive driving experience.
Engine efficiency is also enhanced through reduced friction, including low-friction piston rings, a low-friction camshaft drive and a low-friction oil pump.
A five-speed manual transmission is standard and a dual-range continuously variable transmission is available with the new 1.4L.
Enhanced safety
The 2016 Chevrolet Spark builds on the previous model's reputation for delivering excellent passenger safety in the mini-car segment. In fact, in the United States, the 2015 Spark was named a Top Safety Pick by the Insurance Institute of Highway Safety.
A stronger body structure is at the core of the new Spark's safety story and it's complemented by a wider array of passive and active safety features. Ten standard air bags include driver/front passenger knee air bags, roof rail side air bags and seat-mounted thorax/pelvic air bags. A rollover sensing and protection system is also offered.
Additionally, new active safety features can help drivers avoid collisions through camera-based technology that provides alerts to possible collision threats, including Forward Collision Alert and Lane Departure Warning.
A rear-vision camera system is standard and rear park assist is offered.
The 2016 Chevrolet Spark is produced with globally sourced parts at GM's award-winning Changwon, South Korea, assembly facility.

Harrow Town Centre Team update
21 October 2015
Our Aim is to Make Harrow the Safest Borough in London
The Harrow Town Centre Team:
Inspector Tanya Sprunks, Sergeant Mark Pullen, PC Joe MacDonald, PC Alastair Hinchliff, PC Simon Limb, PC Martin Robinson & PCSO Anda Ben-Chaim.
With Halloween fast approaching, Harrow Police is reminding the public to enjoy the festivities safely but to ensure they respect others. Enhanced patrols will be carried out by officers on Halloween evening, Saturday 31 October, as well as the weekend following to ensure members of the public enjoy a safe and trouble free Halloween. Please do call us if you see anyone suspicious or a crime being committed and together we can continue to make Harrow the Safest Borough in London.
Operation Bumblebee is well underway, with officers intensifying their work to target offenders and prevent offences, whilst calling on Harrow residents to act now and follow basic crime prevention advice to prevent them from being a target.
As the clocks go back and nights draw in homes remain in darkness for longer; making them easier targets. Please take the following precautions:
- Ensure doors and windows are properly locked with a key when leaving home;
- Keep valuables out of sight and out of reach;
- Lock side gates and store bins behind them;
- Avoid leaving packaging outside, which may indicate you have expensive new items in your home, especially around Christmas time.
- As part of Operation Bumblebee officers will employ a range of proactive measures including traditional tactics and the use of science and technology such as MetTrace, to tackle offences.
Halloween Safety Tips
- Halloween can be great fun for children and families but it can also be an intimidating time for others. If you are taking part in Halloween events, please remember to respect others and have a safe and enjoyable time.
- During this busy period, ensure stay safe by staying with others and try to attend well organised events.
- When you are out, keep your valuables and high value mobile phones out of sight, or leave them at home.
- If trick or treating, be aware of the impact of your actions on others - it may cause unnecessary worry to some of the more vulnerable members of our communities. Wherever possible parents should try to accompany their children.
- If you have any concerns, do not hesitate to contact your local Safer Neighbourhoods Team or in an emergency always dial 999.
- Do not forget the security of your home. If you are going out for the evening, ensure you have closed and locked your doors and windows and make sure that you leave lights on. The clocks go back on Sunday 25 October, so will become dark earlier.
When trick or treating you should also stay as safe as possible by following the 'Halloween Code':
- Always go trick or treating with an adult.
- Only go to houses where you or your friends know the residents.
- Don't knock on doors where there is a 'No Trick or Treat' sign.
- Stay in areas that are well lit with street lights - take a torch with you just in case.
- Stay with your friends - don't split into smaller groups unless an adult goes with you.
- Don't talk to strangers on the street.
- Don't enter any house - stay on the doorstep.
- Be careful not to frighten vulnerable people, especially the elderly.
- Be visible.
- Look carefully before crossing the road, even if you're part of a group.
- Don't vandalise anything or throw things like eggs and flour. This can cause a great deal of damage and misery. It can be classed as criminal damage or even assault and a night of 'fun' could end up with you in trouble with the police.
Stay safe on Bonfire Night
Bonfire Night is a wonderful opportunity to celebrate with your local community, but Harrow Police want to make sure that everyone celebrating Bonfire Night has an enjoyable and safe time. We are urging anyone who is using fireworks or having a bonfire to consider the potential fire risks.
Anyone acting anti-socially with fireworks not only put themselves and others at risk of physical harm, they also risk arrest and prosecution if their behaviour amounts to a criminal offence. Misuse of fireworks can leave some members of our communities feeling scared, intimidated and distressed.
Our Safer Neighbourhood Teams will be carrying out extra patrols over the Bonfire Night period. Crime and anti-social behaviour will not be tolerated. If members of the public have any concerns they can contact Police on our non-emergency number 101.
The Firework Code:
- Only buy fireworks marked BS 7114;
- Don't drink alcohol if setting off fireworks;
- Keep fireworks in a closed box;
- Follow the instructions on each firework;
- Light at arm's length, using a taper;
- Stand well back;
- Never go near a firework that has been lit. Even if it hasn't gone off, it could still explode;
- Never put fireworks in your pocket or throw them;
- Always supervise children around fireworks;
- Light sparklers one at a time and wear gloves;
- Never give sparklers to a child under five;
- Keep pets indoors.
Bonfire advice:
- Site well away from houses, garages, sheds, fences, overhead cables, trees and shrubs and always away from fireworks;
- Before lighting the fire, check that no pets or children are hiding inside it;
- Build the stack so that it is stable and will not collapse outwards or to one side;
- Never use flammable liquids – paraffin or petrol – to light the fire;
- Don't burn foam-filled furniture, aerosols and tins of paint or bottles;
- Keep everyone away from the fire – especially children, who must be supervised at all times.
Dangers of bonfires
- Bonfires can collapse unpredictably – sideways, as well as inwards – so it might be necessary to fence off a boundary, especially if there are small children about.
- Also beware of lighting bonfires close to trees.
- Burning tyres and other toxic materials releases pollutants into the atmosphere, which is bad for our health, especially for asthma sufferers and those with respiratory diseases.
- Illegal Bonfires are dangerous - children, adults and pets are at a high risk of injury and trauma from fireworks and bonfires.
- It's bad for the environment - burnt earth on parklands, pitches and community green spaces will take approximately 18 months to recover before grass will grow back.
- Communities, especially older people, can become afraid when they see a bonfire and hear the associated noise.

Fondiario Names Munari CEO as Firm to Expand in Bad DebtElisa Martinuzzi
Credito Fondiario SpA, the Italian banking unit that Morgan Stanley sold in October, hired Andrea Munari as chief executive officer as part of a plan to expand by buying and servicing bad debt.
Munari, 52, joins from Intesa Sanpaolo SpA's Banca IMI unit, where he was general manager before stepping down in December, Rome-based Credito Fondiario said in an e-mailed statement today.
Italian banks are weighing options for separating bad loans, which have reached record levels and are curtailing their ability to lend. By splitting off some bad debt, the banks would also help counter capital shortages that might arise from the European Central Bank's asset-quality review and stress tests.
There are "great opportunities for our business," Munari said in the statement.
Tages Holding SpA, a Milan-based investment and advisory firm, bought Credito Fondiario from Morgan Stanley. Sergio Ascolani, a founder of Tages, is also joining Credito Fondiario's board, the company said today.
Munari had previously worked at Barclays Plc and was a managing director in fixed-income and global capital markets at Morgan Stanley before joining Banca IMI.
