Commentary: Once again, Gonzaga can't move past first weekend
SAN DIEGO — In the grand Gonzaga vision, Arizona would have gotten such an argument from the Zags in their NCAA tournament round-of-32 game here Sunday night that perhaps they'd feel a little fear about a face-losing defeat as a No. 1 seed.
Fear? The Zags mostly saw only fast breaks, buzzing past them. Arizona was clinical in bringing Gonzaga's season to an end, 84-61, at Viejas Arena.
Chief among Gonzaga's warts on this night was a grievous inability to…

Stabilize Medicare
Re: "Doctors, you may feel a pinch" by Scott Burns, June 16 Business section
Scott Burns is rightfully concerned about the future of Medicare because every year there is a threat that physician reimbursement could be cut anywhere from 20 percent to 25 percent. So far, on the brink each year, Congress has saved Medicare patients and physicians.
Every other developed nation has affordable universal health care at a fraction of America's cost with longer life expectancy and lower maternal mortality. They also manage without the end-of-the-year political and emotional drama we go through. Congress needs to establish a stable, long-term financial plan for Medicare so that the entire nation knows that Medicare is safe and secure. Medicare needs reform, and careful thought needs to be given to price controls on medications, the only area of medical care that is not under price control.

Re: Obituary for Rusty Fenton, president of the Rusty Taco chain, by Karen Robinson-Jacobs, June 25 Metro section

Relentless callers
Re: "Be wary of scams, dry holes" by Pamela Yip, June 24 Business section
You are spot on concerning risky investments! About eight years ago, every two weeks I would get a phone call from a company wanting me to participate in a limited partnership in oil drilling. No matter what I said, they kept calling back. I told him three times that this was above my risk tolerance level.
Finally, to get this guy off my back, I said send me the paperwork and I would review it. The very next day it arrived from Denver! Wow. I would give up all rights that I had and stack all the cards in the deck in their favor. He called a few days later, and again I told him it was way above my risk tolerance, yet he kept on.
Finally I said, "If I fill out these forms, you'll know everything about me, so to level the playing field, please send me a list of all your officers and directors, their home addresses, their wives' names and addresses, their firstborn's names and their addresses." He asked, "What are you saying?" I told him that I took losing money very seriously! The conversation ended, and from that point on I have not received another phone call from anyone in the industry.

Beware the middleman
Re: "The keys to leasing" by The Associated Press, June 26 Business section
An important factor in leasing not covered in the article is the pitfall of third-party leasing.
Contrary to popular belief, leasing companies do not obtain vehicles directly from the factory. By law, they must buy from dealers, so their profits come from marking up the prices charged to the consumer.
Their ads flood the airwaves but never mention this fact.
Consumers considering leasing should lease directly from dealers in order to avoid the leasing companies' middleman markups.

More Big Oil tactics
Re : " U.S. oil boom could boost exports" by Bloomberg News, June 23 Business section
U.S. has more oil than we need, but not enough to reduce the price of the gouging cost of gasoline to drivers. Big Oil has told us for years we are running out of oil to keep the price up. Now they are telling us we have too much oil. In order continue gouging the price, they now want to export it. And keep making astronomical profits, of course.
So it`s business as usual for Big Oil.

Hormones likely play a role in the development of adult acne, but hormones generally aren't the root cause of acne.
It's true that some people with hormonal imbalances due to diseases such as polycystic ovary syndrome experience more problems with acne. However, most of those with adult acne have no measurable hormonal imbalance.
A number of so-called natural acne treatments promise to "equalize" hormonal imbalances to reduce adult acne breakouts. But "natural hormones" are often derived from plants. Their chemical structure is different from hormones produced in the body, so their effectiveness may be limited. And because hormonal imbalance isn't thought to play a major role in acne anyway, the premise behind such products is shaky at best.
Also, while the Food and Drug Administration has increased the regulations regarding quality and purity of dietary supplements, these products are still subject to far less oversight when it comes to effectiveness and safety.
Adult acne can be a distressing and frustrating problem. Successful treatment of severe adult acne may take months or even years. But the good news is that effective treatments are available. If you're concerned about adult acne, consult a dermatologist to learn more about safe, proven treatments. Also, check with your doctor before taking any dietary supplements, especially if you have any underlying health conditions.

Greece Is Coming To 2012 Olympics

Greece Is Coming To 2012 Olympics
Greece qualified to the 2012 Olympics Qualification Tournament. They made it through the hardest tournament to qualify through by far (FIBA EuroBasket).
They also beat Serbia (2nd at FIBA EuroBasket 2009, 4th At 2010 FIBA World Championship - despite the refs being against them) to qualify.
Greece will now qualify through the 2012 Olympics Qualification Tournament next summer and will be at the Olympics Basketball Tournament for the third straight time (2004, 2008, 2012).
Greece did this, despite only having their C national team at 2011 EuroBasket.
Now, for the 2012 Olympics, Greece will return such A national team players as Sofoklis Schortsanitis, Vassilis Spanoulis, Panos Vasilopoulos, and Georgios Printezis, as they have all committed for the 2012 Olympics.
Possibly, other A team players such as Loukas Mavrokefalidis, Theo Papaloukas, and Dimitris Diamantidis will also play. As their statements were that they will consider playing at the Olympics (after they have been criticized extremely hard throughout Greece over their terrible recent behavior). Mavrokefalidis was even suspended from Russian League and there has been talk of Diamantidis also being suspended from Greek League. So now they are "reconsidering".
So................................................ ............
Greece will be there with probably about 8-9 of its best players at the 2012 Olympics.
GET READY TEAM USA. Because Greece is coming.

¶ Moreover, brethren, I declare unto you the gospel which I preached unto you, which also ye have received, and wherein ye stand; |
By which also ye are saved, if ye keep in memory what I preached unto you, unless ye have believed in vain. |
¶ For I delivered unto you first of all that which I also received, how that Christ died for our sins according to the scriptures; |
And that he was buried, and that he rose again the third day according to the scriptures: |
And that he was seen of Cephas, then of the twelve: |
After that, he was seen of above five hundred brethren at once; of whom the greater part remain unto this present, but some are fallen asleep. |
After that, he was seen of James; then of all the apostles. |
And last of all he was seen of me also, as of one born out of due time. |
¶ For I am the least of the apostles, that am not meet to be called an apostle, because I persecuted the church of God. |
But by the grace of God I am what I am: and his grace which was bestowed upon me was not in vain; but I laboured more abundantly than they all: yet not I, but the grace of God which was with me. |
Therefore whether it were I or they, so we preach, and so ye believed. |
¶ Now if Christ be preached that he rose from the dead, how say some among you that there is no resurrection of the dead? |
But if there be no resurrection of the dead, then is Christ not risen: |
And if Christ be not risen, then is our preaching vain, and your faith is also vain. |
Yea, and we are found false witnesses of God; because we have testified of God that he raised up Christ: whom he raised not up, if so be that the dead rise not. |
For if the dead rise not, then is not Christ raised: |
And if Christ be not raised, your faith is vain; ye are yet in your sins. |
Then they also which are fallen asleep in Christ are perished. |
If in this life only we have hope in Christ, we are of all men most miserable. |
¶ But now is Christ risen from the dead, and become the firstfruits of them that slept. |
For since by man came death, by man came also the resurrection of the dead. |
For as in Adam all die, even so in Christ shall all be made alive. |
But every man in his own order: Christ the firstfruits; afterward they that are Christ's at his coming. |
Then cometh the end, when he shall have delivered up the kingdom to God, even the Father; when he shall have put down all rule and all authority and power. |
For he must reign, till he hath put all enemies under his feet. |
The last enemy that shall be destroyed is death. |
For he hath put all things under his feet. But when he saith all things are put under him, it is manifest that he is excepted, which did put all things under him. |
And when all things shall be subdued unto him, then shall the Son also himself be subject unto him that put all things under him, that God may be all in all. |
¶ Else what shall they do which are baptized for the dead, if the dead rise not at all? why are they then baptized for the dead? |
And why stand we in jeopardy every hour? |
I protest by your rejoicing which I have in Christ Jesus our Lord, I die daily. |
If after the manner of men I have fought with beasts at Ephesus, what advantageth it me, if the dead rise not? let us eat and drink; for to morrow we die. |
¶ Be not deceived: evil communications corrupt good manners. |
Awake to righteousness, and sin not; for some have not the knowledge of God: I speak this to your shame. |
¶ But some man will say, How are the dead raised up? and with what body do they come? |
Thou fool, that which thou sowest is not quickened, except it die: |
And that which thou sowest, thou sowest not that body that shall be, but bare grain, it may chance of wheat, or of some other grain: |
But God giveth it a body as it hath pleased him, and to every seed his own body. |
¶ All flesh is not the same flesh: but there is one kind of flesh of men, another flesh of beasts, another of fishes, and another of birds. |
¶ There are also celestial bodies, and bodies terrestrial: but the glory of the celestial is one, and the glory of the terrestrial is another. |
There is one glory of the sun, and another glory of the moon, and another glory of the stars: for one star differeth from another star in glory. |
¶ So also is the resurrection of the dead. It is sown in corruption; it is raised in incorruption: |
It is sown in dishonour; it is raised in glory: it is sown in weakness; it is raised in power: |
It is sown a natural body; it is raised a spiritual body. There is a natural body, and there is a spiritual body. |
And so it is written, The first man Adam was made a living soul; the last Adam was made a quickening spirit. |
¶ Howbeit that was not first which is spiritual, but that which is natural; and afterward that which is spiritual. |
The first man is of the earth, earthy: the second man is the Lord from heaven. |
As is the earthy, such are they also that are earthy: and as is the heavenly, such are they also that are heavenly. |
And as we have borne the image of the earthy, we shall also bear the image of the heavenly. |
¶ Now this I say, brethren, that flesh and blood cannot inherit the kingdom of God; neither doth corruption inherit incorruption. |
Behold, I shew you a mystery; We shall not all sleep, but we shall all be changed, |
In a moment, in the twinkling of an eye, at the last trump: for the trumpet shall sound, and the dead shall be raised incorruptible, and we shall be changed. |
For this corruptible must put on incorruption, and this mortal must put on immortality. |
So when this corruptible shall have put on incorruption, and this mortal shall have put on immortality, then shall be brought to pass the saying that is written, Death is swallowed up in victory. |
O death, where is thy sting? O grave, where is thy victory? |
The sting of death is sin; and the strength of sin is the law. |
But thanks be to God, which giveth us the victory through our Lord Jesus Christ. |
¶ Therefore, my beloved brethren, be ye stedfast, unmoveable, always abounding in the work of the Lord, forasmuch as ye know that your labour is not in vain in the Lord. |

USD/JPY Signal Update
Yesterday's signals expired without being triggered.
Today's USD/JPY Signal
Entries only before 8am London time tomorrow (Friday).
Risk 0.75% of equity.
Short Trade
Short entry following bearish price action on the H1 time frame after the first touch of 104.00.
Place a stop loss 1 pip above the local swing high.
Adjust the stop loss to break even when the price reaches 103.50.
Remove 50% of the position as profit at 103.50 and leave the remainder of the position to run.
Long Trade
Long entry following bullish price action on the H1 time frame after the first touch of 103.00.
Place a stop loss 1 pip below the local swing low.
Adjust the stop loss to break even when the price reaches 103.40.
Take off 50% of the position as profit at 103.40 and leave the remainder of the position to ride.
USD/JPY Analysis
The strong USD bullishness has continued across the board, and was so strong against the JPY that this pair just kept going straight up, offering no opportunity to enter on safer pullbacks. We have just made a high very close to the key resistance level of 104.00. Technically, it is quite likely that we will start to fall from this level, at least temporarily. We have not really managed to breach this level all year so there will be some profit-taking here.
The USD is also close to key resistance levels against most of its other major pairs. Therefore in the absence of further strongly bullish USD news, there should be a good short opportunity if we can get back close to 104.00, provided it is confirmed by bearish price action.
There is likely to be support at 103.40 and again at 103.00.
There are high-impact data releases due today concerning only the USD, but nothing regarding the JPY. At 1:30pm London time there will be U.S. Unemployment Claims data, followed by the Philly Fed Manufacturing Index at 3pm, both of which are likely to affect the USD. Therefore today this pair is likely to be relatively quiet before the New York session, although it may sell off rapidly from 104.00.

Editors' Note: The 'Download Now' link takes you to a site to download the BlackBerry App Store, through which Evernote for BlackBerry is exclusively offered.
Editors' Review
+Evernote for BlackBerry lets you upload a text note, voice clip, picture, or file to your cloud-based Evernote account through its attractive, signature green interface. Simply scroll with the track ball to move through the four notetaking icons on the start screen, or pop down to the bottom to search a note by its tag. Pressing the Menu key reveals options to view recently-created notes, notes pending uploading, and an option to activate GPS.
The application's performance depends heavily on how strong the data connection is. On a weak data or Wi-Fi network, loading your history of notes could test your patience, but on a fast connection, the notes you may have taken on the desktop, Web, or other smartphone are easy enough to browse or search by tag. We should note that the method for playing back voice notes requires you to download or open the captured voice file on the BlackBerry's media player--too bad there's no direct method to bring the player's functionality into Evernote. However, the app also includes some keyboard-skirting shortcuts that let you populate the descriptions area of an upload with previously-used tags.
Evernote for BlackBerry is a "freemium" product; the core capturing and search features are free, but subscriptions for storing multimedia notes online beyond the first 40MB per month sell for $5 per month (or $45 per year.) The application is compatible with the Bold, Storm, and Curve 8900 series phones, and should also work on future phones running operating systems 4.6 and higher. At the time of the review, Evernote for BlackBerry is exclusively available through the BlackBerry App World application.
The multiple forms of expression has always been one of Evernote's strengths, and its cross platform functionality makes it a valuable addition for those who want to create and access their notes, photos, and audio reminders from more than once place.

Mike Tyson bares his soul in Anaheim
ANAHEIM – Mike Tyson arrives on stage in darkness, his face cloaked in the shadows cast by the soft glow of a spotlight high above him at the City National Grove of Anaheim on Wednesday night. A recording of Nat King Cole singing "Nature Boy" plays as the former heavyweight champion of the world sits motionless on a stool like a boxer left in his corner long after the fight is finished.
"There was a boy, a very strange, enchanted boy," the song begins, and it's a fitting way to introduce Tyson and the one-man show he's here to deliver. Because his life – from the juvenile crimes to the millions he made boxing, a volatile first marriage, jail time and drug addiction, and eventually redemption – makes for a fairy tale that's equal parts enchanted and tortured, but never dull and always very strange.
"I wanted to do this so you can understand me in my own words," Tyson says as the show he named "Undisputed Truth" begins before an audience that has filled most of the theater. "This is my story. My mistakes, my heartbreak, my joy, my triumph – my undisputed truth."
There's a fascination with Tyson that endures more than 15 years after he surrendered his last heavyweight title, and it's a curiosity about what they might learn or hear from him that draws fans to this tour, which includes three nights at the Pantages Theatre in Los Angeles this weekend.
His story begins with his birth to Lorna May Smith and a father who was either Curly Lee Kirkpatrick, the neighborhood pimp, or Percel Tyson, the cabbie whose name is on his birth certificate.
"In my neighborhood I desperately wanted my dad to be the pimp," Tyson jokes as he paints a picture of the rough-and-tumble world in which he was raised. "I still don't know who the (bleep) my father is."
Early on, he ran the streets, robbing and stealing with his neighborhood friends. A photo shown on the screen above the stage shows him as a cute 10-year-old smiling in a Woolworth photo booth. The cuteness is tempered when he explains that the brand-new jacket he's proudly wearing was bought with the proceeds of a robbery.
Early on, you sense how smoothly he can perform, and how comfortable he's become in this new arena since his original Las Vegas show was revamped by director Spike Lee for a run on Broadway last summer and this current national tour.
At times he's funny. Joking that he got arrested so many times by the age of 12 that the juvenile detention center was his version of "Cheers": "Everybody knew my name," he says, dancing to a bit of the theme music to that sitcom.
At times his story is quite touching. Talking about Cus D'Amato, the trainer who discovered him as a kid and helped him grow up both in the ring and in life, you sense what a strong father figure D'Amato was for Tyson, and how his death when Tyson was still just 19 left him lost and adrift as fame and fortune washed over him.
"Cus told me, 'You have to face your demons or they'll haunt you to your grave,' " he says of one piece of advice that always stuck with him, even when he wouldn't or couldn't follow it.
The show, which runs about 90 minutes, is broken into three acts, the first of which ends with the death of his mother. The second sees his rise as the most feared boxer of the late '80s and early '90s, as well as the start of a long series of self-inflicted public disasters that included his marriage to actress Robin Givens and his conviction for rape that landed him in prison in Indiana for three years.
Where most of the show finds Tyson humble and repentant, he's unforgiving and uncharitable when it comes to Givens – she's referred to as a gold-digger and that word that rhymes with "witch" – and Desiree Washington, the woman who accused him of rape, for which he still insists he was wrongly convicted.
His life in the ring, oddly enough, gets less attention. Maybe he figures fans already know how most of the big fights went, but other than a long section on fighting Mitch "Blood" Green – and most of that involving a street fight outside of a Harlem clothing store named Dapper Dan's – and the infamous ear-biting incident with Evander Holyfield, you get relatively little blow-by-blow accounting of his fights.
"Please go buy (Holyfield's) barbecue sauce," Tyson says after talking about how they're friendly now. "Really. I wish I had it when I bit his ear. That was some nasty tasting (stuff)."
The show wraps up with a section on getting clean and sober in the mid-2000s and how that has helped him be a better husband to his wife, Kiki (who co-wrote the show), and a better father to his eight kids. Showing a photo of his daughter Exodus, who died in an accident when she was 4, Tyson seems close to tearing up.
"As a parent I have many regrets," he says. "I thought being a good parent meant being a good provider. I missed out on being emotionally available."
This is the core of the show: expressing regrets, making amends and vowing to do so in public. The final words of the song that opened the night replay in your mind as he shakes hands with a crowd of fans and then waves goodbye from the stage. "The greatest thing you'll ever learn, is just to love and be loved in return."
That's perhaps what Mike Tyson is seeking here on this night. That may be his undisputed truth.

Second pass at a new way of doing this
comment:5 Changed 6 years ago by
I've talked with Idan about this. It spun off a whole long discussion about what this lifecycle should be, so by the time someone gets around to reviewing it, this could very well be irrelevant. :-)
comment:6 Changed 6 years ago by
Looks pretty awesome! I just had a few remarks:
- "Needs Info" is a resolution, which means that the ticket will get closed. The ticket may then be reopened if more information can be provided.
- In principle, no ticket in the "Accepted" stage would directly be checked in. In general someone first needs to review the patch and then move it to "Ready for checkin" before a committer checks it in. A rare exception to this principle is a committer jumps this step if he/she approves the patch and is ready to commit it right away.
- An free and open format would be preferable for the source file to make sure anyone can update it. Maybe SVG?
Thanks for the great work!
comment:7 Changed 6 years ago by
I'll second the suggestion of SVG... as much as SVG can be difficult to work with and has its own painful limitations I think it is sufficient for our needs and is one of the few open formats that's continued to have broad support.
Moreover, browser support is coming to a point where it would not be unreasonable to directly embed SVG into the docs as opposed to converting it to an image. This would require some minor hacks to support older versions of IE, but the tools are readily available and easily bundled.
Choosing a standard (such as SVG) for images in the docs and making sure we thoroughly support it would also go a long way towards making it easier to add images elsewhere in the docs as well (as per Steve Holden's talk on why the docs suck).
Lastly, SVG can actually be properly version-controlled since it's text-based, which is a big plus.
comment:8 Changed 6 years ago by
I'm happy to export this as an SVG, but I'll need some help. It doesn't that OmniGraffle allows me to export directly to an SVG, but I do have a few vector options. Anyone got any ideas on EPS or vector-based PDF to SVG?
comment:9 Changed 6 years ago by
@julien: I also chatted with Justin Lilly about this at the sprints -- he hadn't come up with anything in particular, so he said to go for it with this.
comment:10 Changed 6 years ago by
Nice! Just a few small comments:
- Clarification for "Needsinfo": the bug isn't necessarily rejected but there isn't enough info to be sure it's genuine. The ticket can be reopened if more info is provided.
- "Design decision" => "Design decision needed"
- "Accepted are going to be created" => something like "The bug is verified or the feature request is accepted as a good idea".
Regarding converting to SVG, I just found this via Google: http://code.google.com/p/graffle2svg/
Looks like that project is quite active so hopefully that would work considering the diagram is fairly simple.

The latest version of OmniGraffle Pro allows exporting to SVG. I just used that successfully for two other images. A PDF version must also be included, because Sphinx' PDF builder doesn't handle SVG.
Travis, could you upload the .graffle file?
I'll review it, tweak it again :), make the SVG + PDF export, and commit the result.

Unfortunately we couldn't recover Travis' source file. I re-created the graph again. See attached file.
I tried to highlight more clearly the difference between "triage stages" and "resolutions", like the current graph does.
I only annotated the transitions that are up to the community — core devs don't need this graph.

Mercedes & Chrysler merger after 8 years - a wise move?
It is now 8 years since Mercedes and Chrysler merged to become Daimler/Chrysler or DC.
Has the merger had a positive or negative impact on the two companies? Did it help one and hurt the other?
Can DC share components between MB, Dodge and Chrysler in the US market while keeping brand image intact?

fintail Posts: 39,791I feel Chrysler has improved...Mercedes went into a black hole which it might be slowly crawling out of almost a decade later. But I'll have to see it to believe it.
I don't think component sharing has or will do much of any damage. Chrysler tends to get previous-generation MB material, so it still helps them, and doesn't cheapen MB. Joe Consumer hasn't a clue about any real details anyway. -
merc1 Posts: 6,081I for one was so against this union back in 1998, but I think overall it has been a good idea...at least up until now. Now if "Dr Z" is going to make a Mercedes interchangeable with a Chrysler then Mercedes-Benz as we know it will become the "Saab" of DCX. Chrysler has definitely benefited from this union, but Mercedes hasn't in the least.
When you look at the LH cars and the Caliber and the upcoming Hornet you realized that Chrysler still has that "be different" spirit they've always compared to the dull as hell GM and the bland Ford Mo Co. Now though they have access to German engineering as in the case of the LH cars, but what does MB get from this? Nothing. Save for the R-Class, Mercedes has pretty much been on a roll as of late. AMG cars are getting even more serious about handling and interior/build quality is very much improved across the board at MB. The only fly in the buttermilk is reliability which seems to improve and then get worse when a new product is launched (think R-Class).
fintail Posts: 39,791Mercedes dearly needs another Bruno Sacco, to start with.
I read someplace that some version of the new 6.3 AMG engine is the most powerful normally aspirated V8. Impressive. -
merc1 Posts: 6,081I read someplace that some version of the new 6.3 AMG engine is the most powerful normally aspirated V8. Impressive.
Well not quite. While the 6.2L V8 from AMG does make more hp than the 7.0L Corvette Z06 V8, it makes less torque at 465lb-ft compared to 470lb-ft. The 6.2L AMG V8 makes anywhere from 475hp to 507hp depending on the model. Now the CL63 is supposed to have a 525hp version of the 6.2L V8. Not sure if torque will rise to beat the Z06's rating.
Yeah a while back I would have said that they need Bruno Sacco back, but with the SL, S, CL and CLS I'm more than pleased with the styling. There were some moments when the S-Class spy photos made me cringe and I'm still not crazy about that rear wheel arch, but overall the car is a winner. More importantly there is nothing on the net to suggest the car has had anything other than a near-perfect launch. There are no forums about problems, problems have been so few to the point where it is spooky. When the W220 came out the problems showed up pretty quickly, but now we'll have to wait and see what the all important people at Consumer Reports and JDP say about the new S-Class.
Mercedes' focus has to be reliability and customer service. People will buy a Mercedes no matter how it looks I think, but what they won't buy (or come back to from other brands) is an unreliable Mercedes.
scott1256 Posts: 531the benefit for Chrysler but wonder just what MB has received out of the deal so far.
The increase in (if not the beginning of) MB's quality/reliability problems dates very closely to the time of the merger.
I agree that reliability and customer service are more important than styling. If customers have to be at the dealership more often than they should, dealer should make every effort to treat them well while they are in for service. -
scott1256 Posts: 531Now if "Dr Z" is going to make a Mercedes interchangeable with a Chrysler...the "Saab" of DCX
This is a real concern. Component sharing is cited as the justification for most mergers but it will hurt MB's image.
There are reports DC is planning common engines for the next generation of Chrysler, Dodge, Jeep and Mercedes vehicles.
MBUSA needs to clarify MB's US image for Dr. Z. The Dakota, 300 and E class should not share major components like engines.
Dr. Z sees big cost reductions but I think this approach would damage Mercedes' brand image in N. America. -
mirth Posts: 1,212I think it was good for Chrysler in terms of management. They got "Dr. Z" and Wolfgang Bernhard, who pretty much turned the company around.
Unfortunately, the Mercedes brain trust was stupid enough to fire Bernhard, one of the best "product" execs in the business, and now I think we're seeing the results... -

graphicguy SW OhioPosts: 9,609So many misguided steps in this whole fiasco it's tough to judge. Schremp's arrogance and less than truthfullness in the merger didn't help matters.
The thought was they could share technology. Well, that was a one sided ordeal so far.
Chrysler sent some of their 4WD technology to Benz. Benz sent some aged platforms for Chrysler to work with for the tepid Crossfire and the much more successful 300 (based very loosely on the previous generation E class chasis).
Mercedes reliability and build quality has tanked (probably on its way down before the merger). I know of at least two people who were Mercedes loyalists. Based on their most recent cars (one E class, one S class), they said they'd never buy another Mercedes.
I know that Chrysler didn't have the best reputation for build quality and reliability in the past. Don't know if that's improved, but cars like the PT Cruiser have proven to be reliable and built well.
I looked briefly at a Mercedes C and E class before I bought my BMW. MB really had nothing that excited me. Plus, I still felt they were overpriced. Slap a Chrysler emblem on a Mercedes R class, and it could be a Pacifica.
Product sells. Nothing about Mercedes is very exciting right now. Chrysler, aside from the 300 and the supposed popularity of the Caliber, has nothing that excites me, either. Gas prices have tanked Dodge truck sales. I was never enamored with the Charger, either. The rest of their line-up makes me yawn. Jeep is suffering the same fate. I guess the new Wranglers are supposed to be good, but I've never been in the market for one of those.
Until Chrysler and Mercedes can start trusting each other and sharing technology, parts, etc freely, this thing won't work.2016 Infiniti Q50 3.0T-1998 Mustang Cobra Convertible -
andre1969 Posts: 23,012with the Chrysler-Benz merger was that it pushed back the timelines on some of the new Chrysler products. Originally the replacement for the Intrepid/Concorde/300M was due to come out in 2002. The original plan called for Dodge and Chrysler to get two models each. One low-slung sporty car, like that Charger concept that made the rounds in the late 1990's and one taller design, which was where the trends seemed to be going, as the Baby Boomers aged. IIRC they were going to offer the choice of FWD, RWD, or AWD.
In the end though, introduction kept getting pushed back, which kept the Intrepid, Concorde, and 300M on the market longer than they should have been. Then, finally, in March of 2004, the first 300's showed up on sales lots. But it would be about 3-4 months before the Magnum wagon showed up, and it wouldn't be until spring of '05 that the Charger was introduced.
I think the Pacifica was originally supposed to launch sooner than it did as well, but it was held back to incorporate some Benz components into it, like the rear suspension and other odds and ends.
As for stuff like the PT Cruiser, 2000 Neon, 2001 Stratus/Sebring, and 2002 Ram, and the Hemi, I believe those things were in the works before the Benz merger, so it really had little to do with them.
Another potential problem I can see with this merger is this: the resale value of a Chrysler with the maintenance/repair costs of a Benz. I dunno if that's exactly a winning combination, long-term. Don't Benzes often get really expensive to fix as they age? -
fintail Posts: 39,791Instead of Chrysler becoming more like MB, MB is becoming more like Chrysler. The joke goes something like that, anyway. I just know some of MBs least reliable cars have came out since the "merger".
If they make Chryslers as complex and maintenance intensive as MBs, there will be dire problems as they age, yes. I suspect the average MB loyalist is more receptive to costly services than a Chrysler buyer, and this could hurt the cars as they age. Good point, Andre. -
Mr_Shiftright CaliforniaPosts: 55,516I think in retrospect it was a clash of cultures and it shows.
MODERATOR --Need help with anything? Click on my name!
graphicguy SW OhioPosts: 9,609Shifty....no doubt a clash of cultures. Also, I'd throw mistrust in there, too. Schremp did nothing to alleviate the mistrust. If anything, he fostered it by pitching the merger as one of equals. When, in reality, it was a Daimler take over of Chrysler.
IIRC, Chrysler had a pretty big cash stash at the time of the merger. That got raided by Daimler. In turn, model plans were scuffled.
Today, Chrysler is known for the HEMI and trucks/Jeeps. Don't know that it plays well in today's reality.
MB's reputation as building the best cars in the world has gone by the wayside. Their vehicles are now rife with quality and reliability concerns.
Both companies have an image problem, too.
The DR Z campaing was disasterous for Chrysler. Whoever told Zieter that the American public wanted some obviously foreign figurehead telling them about their American vehicles should be fired.2016 Infiniti Q50 3.0T-1998 Mustang Cobra Convertible -
Mr_Shiftright CaliforniaPosts: 55,516Even their deviant styling concepts seem to clash rather than harmonize. Chrysler has been admirably prolific in their styling (sometimes successsful, sometimes not) while Benz remains as usual very conservative. How can a company scream "we are TRENDY" and "we honor the past" in the same breath, without both branches knocking heads constantly?
I'm not a scholar of business but it is my impression that very VERY few of these big corporate mergers (in any field of business) have proven to be worth the trouble.MODERATOR --Need help with anything? Click on my name!

Aspen Ideas Festival 2012
Discover the big ideas being explored at this seminal event through the voices of Booz Allen leaders.
Booz Allen EVP Jimmy Henry (center right) moderated a panel with (L to R) Peter Orszag, Elizabeth Nabel, and Martin Gaynor
Healthcare and the US Economy
Booz Allen Executive Vice President Jimmy Henry moderated a panel titled "Health and the US Economy" at the Aspen Institute's Aspen Ideas Festival on July 1, 2012. The panelists included Peter Orszag, vice chairman of global banking at Citigroup; Elizabeth Nabel, president of Brigham and Women's Hospital and professor of medicine at Harvard; and Martin Gaynor, the E.J. Barone Professor of Economics and Health Policy at the Heinz College of Carnegie Mellon University. Henry shares his observations on the topic and the role Booz Allen plays with clients in coping with the changing healthcare landscape.
The panel addressed the question of whether the healthcare sector would drive or drag down the economy. Was that question answered?
This is not an easy topic. These panelists are people who are closer to the problem than anyone else in the United States, so it was encouraging when they said we won't have this solved tomorrow, but that it's doable. I thought that was a great takeaway.
What were the most important points to come out of the discussion?
There were a handful. That clearly the country is moving away from a fee-for-service medical system, and toward other models like the risk-sharing system being implemented at Brigham and Women's Hospital. That in spite of press to the contrary, there has been a deceleration of the growth rate in healthcare spending over the last 10 years. That in some important areas, cost reduction is at hand. Hospitals and insurance companies are meeting the challenges more aggressively and quickly than the average citizen understands. And lastly, what struck me was the degree of optimism shared by the panelists about the potential to gain from these activities.
So this a period of innovation in healthcare delivery?
The fact that things are moving so rapidly at a place like Brigham and Women's Hospital in Massachusetts, as Dr. Nabel described, is encouraging. They are well down the path of shifting from fee-for-service to risk sharing. It's a very innovative time both on the ground at places like Brigham and Women's and in other areas of our healthcare delivery economy, as Peter Orszag and Martin Gaynor pointed out. You wouldn't know that unless you stopped and asked the question, like we did with the panel.
Please share your birds-eye perspective on the challenges we face with the healthcare system.
Healthcare is different than other industries. It was clear from the conversation that the solution can't be completely market-driven. In some respects, healthcare is like defense in that there is a legitimate role for government. The question is about the size and extent of that role, and where is the inflection point between individuals paying for healthcare because they can and healthcare becoming a legitimate function of our government to support our fellow citizens. We need to find that balance between policymakers and pragmatists to get us to the right place.
What role is Booz Allen playing with its clients as they face the complex challenges of the healthcare system?
Booz Allen is segmenting the issue into areas where we can apply our insights and strengths to the greatest effect for clients in the private sector and government. A good example is our work with the Department of Veterans Affairs, where we're helping them improve the application and delivery of selective types of specialized care for veterans with brain injuries and other extremely challenging health issues. Our expertise is in bringing the money and partners in both the public and private sectors together to face these challenges.
Can you give an example of Booz Allen applying its broad experience with a variety of clients to bear on the complex nature of healthcare?
Information technology. Booz Allen applies its expertise in that area to healthcare across the federal government. We are particularly effective—based on what our clients tell us—at the VA, the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services, and the National Institutes of Health, among other agencies. And that's thanks in part to the range and depth of experience we bring from our work with clients in other areas. We're not doctors—although we have doctors on staff—but our work with healthcare agencies on a range of issues, including IT, is one of our absolute strong points.
What can Booz Allen do to help client address the escalating costs of healthcare?

Our Constitution at a Crossroads: Does the System Need Reform?
Booz Allen Executive Vice President Rich Wilhelm moderated a panel discussion titled "Our Constitution at a Crossroads: Does the System Need Reform?" at the Aspen Institute's Aspen Ideas Festival on July 2, 2012. The panel included Pamela S. Karlan, the Harle Montgomery Professor of Public Interest Law at Stanford Law School; Richard H. Pildes, a professor of constitutional law at New York University School of Law; Sanford Levinson, the W. St. John Garwood and W. St. John Garwood, Jr. Centennial Chair at the University of Texas; and Jed Rubenfeld, the Robert R. Slaughter Professor of Law at Yale Law School. Wilhelm shares his observations about the panel discussion below.
Today you talked with constitutional scholars about the possible need for reform of the US Constitution. What were the overriding themes?
Something everybody agreed on is that not only is the political environment polarized, but it's hyperpolarized to where there is no longer a rational center that has any voice. So the prospect for compromise under the current political party structure is not very optimistic.
It was very interesting that the framers of the Constitution did not anticipate or want the formation of political parties. They wanted different, smaller factions and regions coming together to talk about what was going on and then come up with laws.
The view on the panel was that it is the hyperpolarization of the political system that is more responsible for the problems we have now than anything to do with the checks and balances in our system of government.
How is Booz Allen helping its clients adjust to the uncertain, hyperpolarized political and budget atmosphere?
The short answer is we can provide some historical perspective. Most of the people working in government today have never lived through anything like this before. Has this occurred before? Yes it has. Is what is happening now different than what occurred before? The jury is still out on that. But I think essentially we have one thing now that we didn't have before: We've got this monstrous deficit.
Do you see a fix to this situation?
There is going to have to be some permanent resetting of what government does unless either one of two things, but more likely both, happen: tax reform, which in some way increases revenue, and entitlement reform, which deals with issues like raising of the retirement age, getting rid of fraud in Medicare and Medicaid, and reducing certain forms of other entitlements. That's the only way you get the budget under control, and those are very difficult issues in a hyperpolarized environment.
At the end of the discussion, the panelists provided quick solutions to our constitutional and governance challenges. Was there one you agreed with more than others?
I loved what Pam Carlan said: We need to change the education system by requiring Civics classes in high school again, and then after 15 years require mandatory voting.
Why was that your favorite?
Because it's working very well in Australia, where they require everybody to participate in the political process. You can't force people to vote, but you can force them to show up at the polls. A couple things that happen if you've got universal voting: One is that we are less a slave to the hyperpolarization in the political system, because everybody can't be hyperpolarized.
It would be a big issue in this country—do we require people to vote or not? But the government requires people to do all sorts of things. It requires you to buy car insurance. If you want to own a house and finance it, you've got to have fire insurance. If you want to build a big commercial building, you've got to put sprinklers in there.

FSU's "Biggest Loser" Competition for Students a Huge Success
Frostburg State University students showed their dedication to health and wellness during the course of the second annual "Are You the Biggest Loser on Campus?" competition organized by FSU's "Creating Healthy, Informed Lasting Lifestyles" (CHILL) and the Department of Health and Physical Education. Fourteen teams featuring a total of 78 students participated during the course of the two-month long event that began March 2 and ran through May 4 and challenged students to eat healthy, exercise and think critically about their overall health and well-being, including fitness, nutrition and stress management.
Overseen by senior exercise and sports science major Kimber Williams, teams were awarded points for participating in healthy activities, including attending wellness seminars, donating blood and participating in FSU's Relay for Life event.
Teams Ladybug KAKE, The Amazing Ladies and Steez Nation were the top winners, based on their teams' efforts in participating in wellness events and working out as a team throughout the competition.
Katy Baird, a senior majoring in business administration and member of the first-place Ladybug KAKE team, lost over 12 pounds by changing her lifestyle to make her health more of a priority. "Prior to this past semester, I hadn't really focused on health concerns," Baird said. "I have since changed my diet and exercise habits and I've begun living a much healthier lifestyle."
Williams motivated student volunteers to serve as personal trainers for the teams, seeking to enhance their physical wellness. Williams also utilized campus resources from CHILL, Brady Health Center, the Student Health Advisory Council and the Health and Physical Education Department to educate student participants on the importance of leading a healthy lifestyle. Emphasis was placed on the total well-being of each student, including mental and social wellness.
"The program went well and many of the participants had a good time striving to reach their goals – they now know that it is possible to successfully lose weight by engaging in healthy activities," Williams said.
Participant Adrienne Tracey, a junior education major, has participated in CHILL's "Are You the Biggest Loser on Campus?" for the past two years. She has found that engaging in this program gives her the opportunity to embrace wellness with her friends. "I love going to all of the different programs offered by the CHILL program. I have really enjoyed the program."
"Are You the Biggest Loser on Campus?" is a program designed, coordinated and managed by students for students. CHILL, Brady Health Center and the Health and Physical Education Department will offer the program again in spring 2011.
In addition to "Are You the Biggest Loser," CHILL has successfully developed and organized various educational outreach activities since 2008 that focus on health and wellness, including student biomedical screenings to target health conditions, workshops led by nationally renowned fitness expert Scott Cole and campus community walks organized as part of popular University traditions like Homecoming. As a result of CHILL's success and the University's overall focus on health and wellness, in spring 2009 FSU was recognized as a "Fit-Friendly Company" by the American Heart Association and received a "Worksite Innovation Award" from AHA for its efforts to promote and foster an institutional culture of health and physical activity in the workplace. The University's status as a "Fit-Friendly Company" was reaffirmed by AHA in spring 2010.
Originally launched in September 2008 with a contribution from AstraZeneca Pharmaceuticals LP, CHILL promotes health practices and education among college students and the local community.

"M.E from Silwan (East Jerusalem) was taken from his home at night, one day after his 12th birthday. He says that policemen employed harsh violence against him. A marked change in his behavior became immediately apparent following his arrest. On 17 January 2010, together with his parents, M.E. visited his family doctor, where he was diagnosed as suffering from insomnia, nightmares, nocturnal bed-wetting, excessive dependence on his parents, deterioration in school performance, violent behavior at home and outside, and stress-related signs including hair pulling, poor appetite, and disturbing thoughts. He was referred for neurological examination. On 22 February 2010, M.E. met with a psychiatrist, who determined that he required urgent psychological care to deal with the trauma he suffered."
The World Conference for the Well-being of Children (1925) proclaimed June 1 to be International Children's Day. This year, June 1 in Israel is also Jerusalem Day, marking the establishment of Israeli control over East Jerusalem in June 1967. On this day, the Association for Civil Rights in Israel (ACRI) is publishing the English translation of a report on police violations of the rights of Palestinian minors in East Jerusalem. The police treatment of many East Jerusalem minors violates an Israeli law established to protect the rights of minors during interrogation and detainment.
The Israeli Youth Law (Adjudication, Punishment and Methods of Treatment) establishes norms and guidelines for the arrest and investigation of minors. This law reflects the provisions of the International Convention on the Rights of the Child, as well as Israel's Basic Law: Human Dignity and Liberty. Its underlying rationale is to "protect the rights of the minor, whether suspected or accused of committing a crime, taking into account his yet developing capacities and the overriding principle of protecting the welfare of the child; similarly, the aspiration underlying the law is that the juvenile's delinquency may be reformed by means of appropriate treatment and punishment as detailed in the law."
"In an article published on Ynet (an Israeli news website) in March 2011, it was reported that M., an 11 year old boy from Silwan (East Jerusalem), was arrested on suspicion of stone-throwing. After feeling ill during the interrogation, the child was released and according to his parents he later vomited up blood. At the hospital, it became clear that he had suffered a broken eye-socket. He told Ynet that he was tied and beaten in the stomach and on the head. M's father told the reporter: 'I am afraid because I can't protect my son from the police. I was arrested in the past, but that's not a reason to beat up my boy.'"
The Youth Law is intended to guide police treatment of all minors. According to data supplied by the Israel Police, over the past year more than 1,200 Palestinian minors from East Jerusalem have been investigated on suspicion of participating in throwing stones. According to the Youth Law, these minors should have enjoyed special protections during their arrest and detention and throughout the investigative process. However, in practice, many were denied their rights as minors during the process. Complaints filed by various minors in East Jerusalem point to a lack of police implementation of the Youth Law.
The police in East Jerusalem make use of the exceptions established by the Youth Law and turn them into the governing norms. As a result, minors in East Jerusalem do not enjoy the protections afforded to them by law. The routine use of the exceptions in the Youth Law in arresting and interrogating minors renders the law meaningless.

Woman injured in collision with freight train in Buzzards Bay
A freight train and a car collided this morning in Buzzards Bay, sending the female driver to an area hospital with minor injuries, officials said.
The collision, which occurred at about 7:19 a.m. on a train crossing on Academy Drive, disrupted the route of a freight train that transports trash from Cape Cod to a trash energy facility in Rochester. The train, around six cars in length, was returning to the Cape at the time of the crash.
The driver, a teen from Mattapoisett, was attempting to turn her car around on Academy Drive when she hit the train. Police suspect the driver must have had the radio or air conditioning on, and did not see or hear the train.
"She drove into the train," said Bourne Police Lieutenant Richard Tavares. "Had she arrived a little sooner or if the train was going a little slower, the events would have been different."
The woman was cited by Bourne police for failure to stop at a red light at a railroad corssing. She remains at Tobey Hospital in Wareham injuries that are not life-threatening, said Joe Carrara, Bourne deputy fire chief.
"Once the scene was cleared, the train continued on with its business," Carrara said. The car was also still drivable after the collision, though the front sustained significant damage, Carrara said.

Using Toll Lanes to Ease Congestion in Minnesota
To address traffic and congestion issues in the Twin Cities area of Minnesota, USA, the Minnesota Department of Transportation (Mn/DOT) sought to expand use of high occupancy vehicle (HOV) lanes serving the Minneapolis metropolitan area. We partnered with Mn/DOT to design, develop, implement and operate the MnPASS express lane system, which offers additional capacity of existing HOV lanes to single occupant vehicles using an innovative new tolling design. This dynamically priced system—the first of its kind in the area—helps manage road use during peak hours and eases congestion for tolled and non-tolled users.
Mn/DOT converted HOV lanes in the heavily traveled Interstate 394 (I-394) and I-35W corridors to new high occupancy toll (HOT) lanes. These HOT lanes offer motorists improved roadway access using a fully electronic tolling system that avoids congestion in general purpose lanes and increased carbon emissions caused by tollbooths. Solo motorists are now able to travel in the HOT lanes using a MnPASS transponder to pay a dynamically priced toll based on real-time traffic patterns that are reassessed every 3 minutes. Car pools with two or more occupants, motorcycles and transit buses can continue to use the HOT lanes free of charge.
Building on years of experience in the tolling industry, we led the team in developing the HOT lanes system integration and toll operations plan. We teamed with Mn/DOT to design the toll system, review traffic and revenue analysis, and develop the dynamic pricing algorithms. As prime contractor, we participated in every level of the project from initial public outreach to highway patrol officer training and ongoing operations management.
This $24 million project began in 2004, with HOT lanes opening on I-394 in May 2005 and I-35W in November 2010. With more than 1 million annual trips in the HOT lanes, expansion of the MnPASS system is expected to continue.

"I was merely comparing them as far as their expansive soundstage which is a HUGE similarity between the two and one that i'm sure the HD700 shares as well. "
You know, I read this constantly about the HD-800 but don't understand the observation, at all. Recordings that have a large "soundstage" (recorded that way) come across with that quality even on my speaker system. Recordings that sound as if recorded in a small closet sound closed-in on the HD-800 as well as over speakers. The issue with most headphones is that the majority cannot reproduce the recorded ambience accurately. That the HD-800 and a few others are capable of delivering this is the norm, not the exception.
I agree. I thought to mention this too, but for some reason I decided to stick to headphones. Indeed after listening to my speakers any headphones could be found as lacking in soundstage composition and presentation, as recorded. Even the HD800s can struggle to compete. I do appreciate and enjoy the more intimate presentation of many/most heapdhones, but it's not necessarly the benchmark.
