INDIANAPOLIS—State health officials have confirmed a case of measles in a student at Indiana University Bloomington. This student did not attend classes while infectious and does not live on campus. The Indiana State Department of Health, the Monroe County Health Department and Indiana University are working to identify potential additional cases and to prevent further transmission of the disease.
The individual visited the IU Health Bloomington Hospital emergency department and a CVS pharmacy while infectious on March 24. IU Health Bloomington Hospital is contacting individuals directly who may have been exposed to measles.
Visitors to the CVS Pharmacy at 1000 N. College Ave, Bloomington, IN, 47404, from 4:30-7:30 p.m. on March 24 may have been exposed to the measles virus. Individuals who cannot verify two doses of the Measles, Mumps, and Rubella (MMR) vaccine or who were born in 1957 or later should contact their health care provider. In addition, individuals who develop symptoms of measles should stay home and call their health care provider as well as the Monroe County Health Department at (812) 349-2543.
On March 25, the individual visited the IU Student Health Center at 600 N. Jordan Ave., Bloomington, IN, 47405, while infectious. Risk of exposure at this location is very low because the individual wore a mask during the time spent in the clinic. A very small number of patients may have been exposed. The Student Health Center is contacting these individuals directly.
Measles is a highly contagious respiratory disease caused by a virus. It is rare in the United States due to the widespread availability of the MMR vaccine; however, visitors from other countries or U.S. citizens traveling abroad can become infected before or during travel.
More than 95 percent of people who receive a single dose of MMR will develop immunity to measles, and more than 99 percent will be protected after receiving a second dose. Two doses of the vaccine are needed to be fully protected. Individuals are encouraged to check with their health care providers to ensure vaccinations are up-to-date.
Children are routinely vaccinated for measles at 1 year of age, and again at 4-6 years of age before going to kindergarten, but children as young as 6 months old can receive the measles vaccine if they are at risk. Individuals born before 1957 are presumed to be immune to measles. Individuals who are unsure about vaccination history should contact their health care providers. Hoosiers can also access immunization records directly through the secure online tool MyVaxIndiana by requesting a PIN from their health care provider. Go to www.MyVaxIndiana.in.gov to learn more.
Measles begins with a fever, cough, runny nose, and red eyes about 7-10 days after exposure. The fever increases and can get as high as 105 degrees. Two to four days later, a rash starts on the face and upper neck. It spreads down the back and trunk, and then extends to the arms and hands, as well as the legs and feet. After about five days, the rash fades the same order in which it appeared.
Measles is highly contagious. When infected persons sneeze or cough, droplets spray into the air. Those droplets remain active and contagious on infected surfaces for up to two hours.
What you can do
If you are experiencing the symptoms of measles, stay home and call your doctor. Be prepared to describe your symptoms and alert your doctor if you think you have been in contact with an infected person. If you are ill with measles, remain home and away from others, especially unvaccinated infants, people with diseases affecting their immune systems, and pregnant women.

U.S. stocks rose, as the Standard & Poor's 500 Index rebounded from its biggest weekly drop in four months, after American retail sales and Citigroup Inc.'s earnings topped estimates.
Citigroup soared 5 percent as results were helped by a surge in bond-trading revenue. Texas Instruments Inc. rose 3.4 percent on a report Amazon.com Inc. may buy its mobile chip unit. Advanced Micro Devices Inc. added 0.4 percent as it was said to plan job cuts. Apple Inc. advanced 0.5 percent after falling as much as 0.9 percent earlier.
The S&P 500 climbed 0.6 percent to 1,437.43 at 3:33 p.m. in New York. The Dow Jones Industrial Average rose 85.38 points, or 0.6 percent, to 13,414.23. Trading in S&P 500 companies was 6.9 percent above the 30-day average at this time of day.
"The retail sales report looked a little bit better than expected," Dan Veru, who oversees $3.5 billion as chief investment officer at Palisade Capital Management LLC in Fort Lee, New Jersey, said in a phone interview. "The direction of the economic data is positive, but we're moving at a very slow pace and the market is very fragile to external shock. The big question regarding earnings is whether expectations have come down enough so that companies can beat guidance."
U.S. stocks rose as the Commerce Department said retail sales climbed 1.1 in September following a revised 1.2 percent increase in August that was the biggest since October 2010 and larger than previously reported. The median forecast of 77 economists surveyed by Bloomberg called for a 0.8 percent rise. A separate report showed manufacturing in the New York region contracted for a third straight month in October as shipments and employment declined.
Earnings Season
The S&P 500 sank 2.2 percent last week, the biggest retreat since June 1, as the International Monetary Fund reduced its global growth forecasts and earnings projections from Alcoa Inc. and AMD disappointed investors. The benchmark index has rallied 14 percent this year as the Fed announced a third round of bond purchases and companies posted better-than-expected earnings in the first half of 2012.
Some 84 companies in the S&P 500 release results this week, according to data compiled by Bloomberg. Of the 38 companies in the benchmark index that have reported since Oct. 9, 27 posted earnings that exceeded analyst estimates, according to data compiled by Bloomberg.
Citigroup jumped 5 percent to $36.47 today. Chief Executive Officer Vikram Pandit, 55, is cutting jobs and shedding unwanted assets, including a 49 percent stake in Smith Barney, as he seeks to return capital to shareholders and comply with new regulations on buffers against losses. Revenue from fixed-income trading surged 63 percent excluding accounting adjustments after tumbling last year during the European sovereign-debt crisis.

Rated 3 out of 5 by babstampa from ok dress I bought this dress for a work dress and thought that the length was a little too short for work. I also wish that it was lined, the material is very thin. It is comfortable though.

Rated 5 out of 5 by Riki from Could wear this everyday!!! For me a truly perfect dress from the color and pattern, to the retro-sexy sleeves that beautifully convey a confident femininity. The material is so soft and light but not at all see-through; just the right weight to fit and hug beautifully. Length is great also: not too short, not too long – perfect for fall/winter. Not to mention appropriate for everything form work or travel to a hot date or family reunion. The only downside is that I'll be tempted to wear it everyday. Totally love it!!!

Rated 5 out of 5 by SimpleBeauty from Simple but cute! I found this dress on sale (great catch for the price) and it is just so simple but cute. The fabric is thin and shows everything, so be mindful if you don't want certain areas pronounced. I'm 5'4", very curvy (34, 27, 42) at 138lbs. The XS was perfect as it is very stretchy and I was looking for a snug fit. Hits me just about 2 inches above the knees which is perfect so even though it's tight it still looks classy :)

Rated 3 out of 5 by momo from Nice but not good enough for the price I love the color and the sleeves. It was too long on me, I tried the xs and it came down to my knees (I'm short, below 5'3") but still love the fit. I was soooooo disappointed that this dress isn't lined which makes it see though!! The fabric is nice and soft but for the price that I have to pay for it, I expect the total package.

As we head into fall I confess, I'm a little bit excited. While I don't like the cold weather approaching, I do love seeing the colorful leaves on the trees and fall is one of my favorite times of year for cooking with seasonal ingredients. With summer coming to a close, I'm inspired to pour over the Kraft Foods site in search of fall inspired treats.
One of my favorite fall ingredients to cook with is pumpkin. There are so many fantastic recipes to make including pumpkin soup, pumpkin bread, pumpkin pie, and more. I also enjoy trying new soup recipes in the cold autumn months. There's nothing like enjoying a warm bowl of soup on a chilly day.
While these are some of my favorite seasonal ingredients and menu items, I have to confess that my love of brownies is year round and on a cold day biting into a warm from the oven chocolate brownie really hits the spot. Recently we had a family potluck get together to attend. I was trying to figure out something to bring when I decided to try the Triple Layer Peanut Butter Brownies on the Kraft Foods site.
I adapted the recipe a bit to fit our needs. While the recipe called for nuts on top, we aren't big fans so we left them off. I also added a bit more of the COOL WHIP and chocolate mix to make extra chocolatey brownies. These brownies turned out wonderfully and are now a family favorite. They received rave reviews at the potluck and everyone commented on how moist, rich, and delicious they were. We look forward to making them again throughout the fall and warming up to these fabulous chocolate peanut butter brownies as the weather gets colder.
Layered Peanut Butter Brownies
Prep Time: 15 minutes • Cook Time: 1 hour 15 minutes • Serves: 12
1 pkg. (19 to 21 oz.) gluten-free brownie mix (13×9-inch pan size)
1 pkg. (3.4 oz.) JELL-O Vanilla Flavor Instant Pudding
1 cup cold milk
1 cup PLANTERS Creamy Peanut Butter
½ cup granulated sugar
2 cups COOL WHIP Whipped Topping (do not thaw)
5 oz. BAKER'S Semi-Sweet Chocolate
PREPARE and bake brownies in 13×9-inch pan as directed on package.
BEAT pudding mix and milk with whisk for 2 minutes. Add peanut butter and sugar; mix well. Refrigerate until brownies are done.
WITH 3-5 minutes of brownie cooking time left, put chocolate in microwaveable bowl on HIGH for 30 seconds and stir. Repeat in 20 second intervals until chocolate is melted.
ADD COOL WHIP to chocolate and mix well. Let stand 1-2 minutes. Spread peanut butter & pudding mix over brownies.
SPREAD chocolate COOL WHIP mix over pudding. Refrigerate 1 hour. If topping needs to solidify a bit more, freeze for 30 minutes.

Two weeks in the West
Wide-open spaces and burly, gas-guzzling automobiles go hand in hand in the West. After all, how else can you get to your favorite climbing crag or hiking trail?
Perhaps by driving a burly rig that guzzles a lot less gas. Or so California and a handful of other Western states had hoped. But the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency recently shot down California's efforts to cut tailpipe greenhouse gas emissions by 30 percent. Agency head Stephen Johnson argued that the state's regulation would lead to "a confusing patchwork of state rules" and would be less effective than a measure in the 2007 federal energy bill requiring new vehicles to average 35 miles per gallon by 2020. California officials say their rule would beat that - 36 miles per gallon by 2016.
The agency's move skunked 17 other states that had pledged to adopt California's standards, including Arizona, New Mexico, Oregon and Washington. Most of those states have now joined Gov. Arnold Schwarzenegger in a lawsuit to overturn the EPA's decision. California's fight may be bolstered by a new study from Stanford University, which concludes that global warming can increase asthma and respiratory disease in already-polluted areas. Since California has six of the nation's dirtiest cities, researchers say it suffers even more than the rest of the country from the rising temperatures attributed to greenhouse gases.
Demand for gasoline and wide-open spaces in the West
doesn't look like it's going to slow down any time soon, as the
region's population continues to boom. Six of the 10
fastest-growing states are Western, according to the
latest figures from the U.S. Census Bureau. Nevada topped the list,
while Arizona, Utah and Idaho ranked second through fourth,
respectively. California accrued the second-highest number of new
residents last year - about 300,000.
Keeping all
those new Westerners fed may prove challenging. A recent
survey from the U.S. Department of Agriculture finds that nearly 11
percent of Americans are "food insecure," meaning they don't know
where their next meal is coming from. New Mexicans suffer the
second-highest rate of food insecurity - 16.1 percent - in the
country (Mississippi's rate is 18.1 percent). Compared to 1996
figures, California and Washington have seen slight drops in the
number of hungry citizens, while in Utah, despite the primary
religion's emphasis on food storage, about 4 percent more people
now don't have enough to eat.
Explosive growth
has some policymakers worried about air quality and water quantity
in the West's major urban centers. An air quality council
in Denver, Colo., says it will be impossible for the state to curb
Front Range air pollution quickly enough to avoid breaking federal
limits on ozone - a nasty component of smog that can cause asthma
and other ailments - for the second summer in a row. Meanwhile,
some Colorado water managers are clamoring for a greater voice in
limiting development. The state is expected to gain 3 million new
residents by 2035, but current and planned water projects will
supply only 80 percent of that projected growth, and climate change
is a wild card that may leave many newcomers high and dry.
Democratic state Rep. Kathleen Curry is pushing a bill that would
force developers to provide stronger proof that enough water will
be available for the bluegrass lawns and hot tubs of their new
subdivisions. In California, Orange County is facing up to the
reality of water shortages - a new $500 million "toilet to tap"
plant will purify up to 130 million gallons per day of treated
National parks are also feeling the
sting of growth. Airborne ammonium, a compound associated
with industrial feedlots and fertilizers, is showing up in greater
concentrations in Western national parks, including Rocky Mountain,
Yellowstone and Glacier, according to a recent National Park
Service report. The nitrogen-rich compound can harm wildflowers and
insects, alter lake chemistry, and even change forest structure.
Also a potential hazard in national parks: Forty-seven U.S. senators, led by Mike Crapo, R-Idaho, recently signed a letter asking Interior Secretary Dirk Kempthorne to lift the ban on carrying loaded guns in national parks and wildlife refuges. Park Service regulations require that weapons be carried in an "inaccessible" way, while the BLM and Forest Service defer to state gun laws. Other Western signers included Max Baucus, D-Mont., Jon Tester, D-Mont., Larry Craig, R-Idaho, Mike Enzi, R-Wyo., John Barrasso, R-Wyo., Pete Domenici, R-N.M., Wayne Allard, R-Colo., and Jon Kyl, R-Ariz. The senators' letter said, in part, "These regulations infringe on the rights of law-abiding gun owners, who wish to transport and carry firearms on or across these lands."

2002 GMC Yukon ReviewThis car review is specific to this model, not the actual vehicle for sale.
Updated and upgraded.
GMC's Yukon offers a roomy cabin, impressive cargo-carrying capability, a nice ride, and a choice of modern V8 engines that deliver strong power for towing or tackling steep grades. The Yukon Denali is a luxury version that adds a more luxurious interior, a bigger engine, and all-wheel drive.
Either way, the Yukon is a good size for large families. Built on GM's superb full-size truck platform, the Yukon is the same size and, in many ways, the same vehicle as the Chevy Tahoe and Cadillac Escalade. Yukon is 20 inches shorter than the Chevy Suburban/GMC Yukon XL, making it much easier to park and garage. It is slightly smaller than the Ford Expedition, but longer and wider than the GMC Envoy, Chevy TrailBlazer, and Ford Explorer.
Yukon SLE was completely redesigned for 2000, and the luxurious Yukon Denali was introduced for 2001. For 2002, GMC focused on fine-tuning to enhance safety, reduce emissions, and improve durability and reliability. GMC upgraded the automatic transmissions, designed a more efficient starter, built a more durable steering gear housing, installed new child safety seat anchors, and achieved an ultra-low emissions (ULEV) rating for the Vortec 5300 V8 engine.
Essentially, two models are available: SLE and Denali.
Yukon SLE ($33,252 with two-wheel drive and $35,835 with four-wheel drive) comes loaded with air conditioning, anti-lock brakes, self-leveling suspension, CD stereo, power windows, power door locks, fog lights, tinted glass, heated outside mirrors, leather wrapped steering wheel, and alarm. A 275-horsepower 4.8-liter V8 is standard; a 325- horsepower 5.3-liter V8 is optional.
Yukon Denali ($46,550) is the upscale model that comes with a big 6.0-liter V8 engine, all-wheel drive, and a computer-controlled AutoRide suspension. The Denali comes equipped with nearly every desirable feature as standard equipment, including: heated, leather, 10-way power seats, On-Star driver assistance, 11-speaker Bose stereo with in-dash six-disc CD changer, thermostatically controlled climate control with rear heat and air conditioning, 17-inch alloy wheels, four-wheel anti-lock disc brakes, power windows and power door locks. The Denali is the luxury version of GM's full-size SUVs; only the Cadillac Escalade is more luxurious. Neither the powerful 6.0-liter V8 nor the full-time all-wheel-drive system is available on the Yukon SLE models, nor does Chevrolet offer anything comparable to the Denali in its Tahoe line. Denali options are limited to a sunroof ($1,000) and engine block heater ($35).
These are conservatively styled trucks. They look like shortened versions of the GMC Yukon XL, which looks like a fancy Suburban, which is what it is. An arched roofline provides extra headroom for the second and third rows.
The most visible difference between the SLE and Denali is the Denali's aftermarket-inspired chrome grille, in place of the SLE's blacked out grille.
An important choice to make here is whether you want a contemporary hatch rear door that lifts up or old-fashioned side-by-side cargo doors. Cargo doors are more useful for towing trailers, while the hatch style is usually more convenient for families partly because the window can be opened separately for quick loading or unloading of smaller items. Denali buyers are limited to a hatch with flip-up window. Utility-minded shoppers looking for cargo doors will have to limit themselves to an SLE.
GMC's Yukon models are comfortable and convenient. GMC has gone to great lengths to make them more comfortable, easier to operate and more attractive for families. Getting inside is easy thanks to pull-handle style door handles that replace the old lift-up style openers. Step-in height is lower than previous-generation models, making it easier to climb into the driver's seat. Seat-mounted shoulder harnesses on the front and rear seats make the Yukon's belts easy to wear.
All controls are mounted close to the driver's seat. Visibility out of the Yukon is very good, thanks to new larger windows. The combination of good visibility and confident handling give the Yukon an air of nimbleness.
GMC's Yukon Denali tops the current Lincoln Navigator in the usefulness of its third-row seat. While the Lincoln's third seat is a children-only compression chamber, the Yukon's third seat provides space for adults' feet. It isn't a lot of space, but it is there. The third seat also folds, flips, slides and removes easily. Whichever way you choose to stow the third-row seat, it is easy to do; it even has wheels to help it roll into the garage for storage.
Still, getting into and out of that third row isn't easy for adults. If you're going to put people back there on a regular basis, we recommend considering the longer GMC Yukon XL or Chevy Suburban.
The Denali offers optional second-row bucket seats that give passengers better support and let them adjust their seats individually to suit each person. The Denali's leather upholstery is very nice looking and feels comfortable.
Music lovers will enjoy the available Bose Acoustimass 11-speaker stereo with a subwoofer. It uses a spiral-wrapped radio antenna to cut wind noise. GMC says it chose to use a conventional mast rather than embedding the antenna in a window for better performance.
Driving Impression
GMC Yukon offers a nice ride, whether on asphalt or dirt. On bumpy rural byways that make some SUVs feel like pogo sticks, the Yukon rides with impressive, sedan-like smoothness. On smooth highways, the Yukon cruises effortlessly. Handling is impressive and surefooted for a full-size SUV. It's stable at high speed. It's much easier to park then the Yukon XL, but it's still a full-size truck and not as maneuverable as a mid-size SUV such as the GMC Envoy or Ford Explorer.
Yukon SLE and Denali share the same hydroformed frame and five-link coil-spring live-axle rear suspension, which gives them a smooth ride and surprisingly responsive handling. Car-based SUVs such as the Lexus RX300 use independent rear suspension to provide the ride and handling customers expect, but GMC has managed to give the Yukon those benefits without compromising its cargo-carrying utility. The front suspension is conventional in design, except for the springs. To save space, the Yukon uses torsion bars instead of coil springs in the front. Its conventional ladder frame is fully boxed in the mid-section for maximum rigidity, while the front and rear portions are shaped by the same hydro-forming technique used to make Corvette frames. This rigid design is a key to the Yukon's excellent ride and handling. At the very front of the frame is a section that is designed to crush and absorb impacts in a crash.
The Denali's AutoRide computer-controlled suspension helps keep it level over bumps. This effect is especially pronounced when towing; a trailer tends to cause the towing vehicle to rock back and forth when driving over bumps, but the AutoRide system keeps the Denali amazingly smooth.
The steering on both models provides good control and feedback. It's a recirculating-ball system, which doesn't offer the response of the rack-and-pinion steering found on the Ford Explorer and the new 2003 Ford Expedition, however.
A tighter 38.3-foot turning diameter makes the Yukon much easier to park than a Yukon XL, which takes another 4 feet of space to turn around. That makes a huge difference in the grocery store parking lot. The Yukon's turning diameter represents a big improvement over previous-generation Yukon and Tahoe models.
The brakes perform well. Dual-piston brake calipers for the disc brakes are designed to provide shorter stopping distances. A dynamic proportioning system continuously balances the front and rear brakes for maximum braking without activating the ABS. To check this out, we towed a heavily laden horse trailer without trailer brakes connected and were impressed with the braking ability.
Under the hood, the Yukons employ the latest version of Chevy's small-block V8 engine family. These Generation III overhead-valve engines are the best yet and rival competitors' overhead-cam engines for smoothness and efficiency. As mentioned, they come in three sizes: 4.8-liter, 5.3-liter, and 6.0-liter.
The big 6.0-liter V8 that comes with the Denali cranks out 320 horsepower. Fuel economy suffers, however, earning the Denali a mediocre EPA gas mileage rating of 12 mpg city and 16 mpg highway; but that is similar to ratings for some vehicles with much less horsepower and lower towing capacities. At least the 6.0-liter V8 burns regular unleaded fuel, making pit stops a little more affordable.
The 275-horsepower 4.8-liter V8 gets much better fuel economy, earning 20 mpg on the EPA's highway mileage test on a 2WD Yukon.
The more popular 5.3-liter V8 is rated at 285 horsepower and its acceleration performance is impressive. Like the 4.8-liter engine, the 5.3-liter burns regular unleaded fuel.
Standard Yukons come with a choice of two-wheel-drive with optional traction control or a traditional four-wheel-drive system. Two-wheel-drive models offer a limited-slip rear differential to give drivers better traction in slippery conditions. Optional traction control cuts engine power as needed to help maintain traction to the rear tires. A.
The GMC Yukon is among the best of the full-size SUVs. It's large enough to carry a crowd in comfort or haul a lot of cargo, yet doesn't require a new garage and a flagger to park.
The Yukon Denali gives full-size SUV shoppers an alternative to their Cadillac dealer when shopping for a luxury SUV from General Motors. The Denali is styled more conventionally than the Escalade, so some buyers may be more comfortable with its traditional appearance. Both are comfortable, roomy SUVs that get surprisingly good gas mileage. Lots of power, comfortable accommodations, and safety features such as side-impact air bags place the Yukon Denali among the best of the full-size luxury SUVs.

If you need three rows of seats on a regular basis and a minivan doesn't offer enough cargo room, then this is one of the best vehicles available for the job. And the only reason we say 'one of' is because the Chevrolet Suburban is the other one. Each delivers the same great ability to carry six to nine people and/or a boatload of cargo. And they do it in comfort.
Based on GM's excellent full-size truck platform, the GMC Yukon XL and the Chevy Suburban are in many respects identical, but there are some key differences that go well beyond styling cues. GMC is GM's upscale truck division, so the Yukon XL is available with more luxury, more power, and better handling in adverse conditions than what's available from Chevrolet. At the top of the GMC model line is the Yukon XL Denali, an upscale version of the Yukon XL that comes with a powerful 6.0-liter V8 and all-wheel drive.
Completely re-engineered for the 2000 model year, the Yukon XL was further refined for 2001 and the Denali model was added. For 2002, the transmissions, the steering system, starter motors, child seat anchors, and other parts have been upgraded or redesigned for improved durability or better operation. More low-emissions models are also available. But, for the most part, the Yukon XL is unchanged over last year.
The GMC Yukon XL is a long-wheelbase version of the Yukon, just as the Chevrolet Suburban is a long wheelbase version of the Tahoe. XL means extra long; the Yukon XL is based on the same platform as the Yukon, but it's stretched 14 inches in wheelbase and about 20 inches overall. While the Yukon can carry a lot of people or a lot of cargo, the Yukon XL can do both at the same time. The Yukon XL also offers a bigger towing capacity. (Look for a separate NewCarTestDrive.com review of the standard-wheelbase GMC Yukon and Yukon Denali.)
GMC offers the Yukon XL with two-wheel drive or four-wheel drive. It comes in two load ratings: The popular 1500 model is rated to tow trailers up to 8800 pounds with 2WD, or 8600 pounds with 4WD. The heavy-duty 2500 is rated to pull trailers up to 12,000 pounds in 2WD or 4WD. (Unless you're pulling heavy trailers, you'll want the 1500 model for its smoother ride quality.)
Each of these variations is available in two trim levels, the already well-equipped SLE and even better-equipped SLT.
Yukon XL Denali adds a bigger engine and a sophisticated full-time all-wheel-drive system to the Yukon XL. Denali also comes standard with nearly every option offered on the regular Yukon XL models. A distinctive grille, wheels, body cladding, and interior trim distinguish the Denali from the rest of the Yukon XL line.
All Yukon XL 1500 models in SLE or SLT trim come with a 285-horsepower 5.3-liter Vortec V8. Yukon XL Denali comes only with a 320-horsepower 6.0-liter Vortec V8. 2500 models offer a choice of the 6.0-liter V8, or a monster 340-horsepower 8.1-liter big-block Vortec V8.
All models come with an electronically controlled four-speed automatic transmission.
Yukon XL 4WD models use a fairly conventional part-time system GM calls Autotrac; it uses a two-speed transfer case that locks front and rear axle speeds together in four-wheel-drive mode. This is the traditional kind of four-wheel drive that is considered best for serious off-road driving. Pressing a button switches the system to an Auto 4WD mode that automatically shifts torque between the front and rear wheels as conditions demand. A locking rear differential is optional.
Denali comes with a more sophisticated full-time all-wheel-drive system that uses a planetary center differential set for a 38/62 front/rear torque split; a silicone viscous coupling unit progressively locks up if one axle or the other starts to slip. This is all contained in a cast-magnesium housing that saves 15 pounds compared to the standard 4WD system. Aluminum front and rear prop shafts save even more weight and minimize vibration. A locking rear differential is standard on the Denali.
Prices start at $36,157 for the 1500 and $37,529 for the 2500. Add about $2600 for 4WD. Two different SLT packages are offered, one adding $2105, and the other $3273, to the cost of an SLE. Denali is priced at $48,050, but includes every possible option except an engine-block heater ($35), power sunroof ($1000), and second-row bucket seats ($490).
Today's GMC Yukon XL is a completely redesigned and re-engineered version of the 1999 GMC Suburban. (GMC and Chevrolet shared the Suburban nameplate prior to 2000.) Compared to the old Suburbans, the Yukon XL is strikingly different, yet familiar at the same time. Its styling is more rounded, like the old one was put into a giant polisher.
The Denali trades the standard Yukon XL's black grille for a bright mask of fine-metal mesh, but swaps the chrome bumpers for body-color bumpers to keep the overall flash level about equal. Round fog lights are neatly tunneled into the lower part of the front bumper. (All Yukon XLs have fog lights, but they are less conspicuous on standard models.) Oddly shaped lower body cladding incorporates front and rear stone guards and blends nicely into the Denali's color-keyed running boards.
Seating and cargo carrying are key features of this giant SUV, so we'll start with that. In our view, other SUVs with three rows of seats offer a workable solution for people who only occasionally need the third row. Cramming six or eight people into a Tahoe, Yukon, Ford Expedition, or a smaller SUV on a daily basis, however, may be cruel though not unusual treatment for third-row passengers. Minivans can carry seven passengers in relative comfort, but there's not much room behind the third row for their luggage. And Ford's Excursion is just too much truck for anyone who's not pulling a big boat or a big horse trailer. That leaves the Chevy Suburban and GMC Yukon XL. Short of driving a shuttle bus, you just can't beat these two behemoths of modern motoring for moving people and stuff.
The standard front seat setup in a Yukon XL is a three-passenger reclining 40/20/40 split bench with six-way power driver and passenger seat adjusters with dual manual lumbar support. Front bucket seats are available and we like them better when seven or fewer passengers need to be moved. Either way, the front seats in these vehicles are generally comfortable and supportive. Seat belts mount to the seat frame, and the side-impact airbags are incorporated into the seats. The basic GMC Yukon XL comes with nice custom cloth upholstery. Leather seating is available as part of an options package. Leather seating surfaces come standard on the Denali, and its tone-on-tone leather bucket seats suggest a luxury sedan more than a truck; 10-way power adjustments include side bolsters, lumbar support, and articulated headrests.
For the second row, the standard deal is a three-passenger 60/40 fold-down bench seat. Denali offers a choice of 50/50 split bench seat in the second row or a pair of heated bucket seats for $490. Because it seats three people, the bench seat offers more options for carrying passengers. If four adults plus two children is all you'll ever need to carry, then the second-row bucket seats are very comfortable. Second-row passengers in the Denali's optional bucket seats get a great pair of cup holders that flip out of the back of the center console. Just above are their comprehensive audio controls and headphone jacks. A pair of covered cigar-lighter style power outlets is available for running accessories. Besides the seat heaters, they get a pair of ceiling vents on each side that can be aimed. The driver controls the rear passengers' temperature and fan speeds and can direct the air to upper or lower vents or both.
The third row is a bench seat. It is surprisingly comfortable, unlike most third-row SUV seats. While many third-row seats put a fender under half your butt, leaning your body toward the inside, the Yukon XL provides a comfortable bench seat. Larger passengers may not love sitting back there, but most adults can tolerate the third row. There are cup holders for each person, great when heading to an event with a boatload of friends. Overhead vents can be aimed for heating and air conditioning, good because the rear side windows cannot be opened. A pair of three-point seat belts are nicely designed and easy to use. As with the other rows, the seat belts are integrated into the seats, which is the direction many manufacturers are taking now. There is a lap belt in the center of the third row, but putting three people back there is optimistic as the third row is considerably narrower than the first two rows to accommodate the rear wheels. Getting into the third row is a bit challenging, however. Third-row passengers will require assistance to get in or out as someone will have to move the second-row seats out of the way for them. Minivans tend to be much easier to deal with in this regard.
Need to haul some stuff? Yukon XL offers 45.7 cubic feet of cargo space behind the third row. That's a lot. By comparison, a regular Yukon or Tahoe provides just 16.3 cubic feet and a Ford Expedition offers 20.5 cubic feet. Fold thi.
Driving Impression
This is arguably the best full-size SUV on the market. First off, there's the smooth ride. GM completely re-engineered the chassis for 2000, making the frame stronger and lighter. It is a tremendously good platform, very rigid, with generous cross bracing and a hydroformed frame. This chassis is a key element to the greatness of the Yukon, Suburban, and Tahoe models as it allowed GM engineers to design a suspension that soaks up the jarring bumps and craters found on and off our roadways.
The optional AutoRide suspension system automatically varies the amount of shock damping according to the driving conditions. Whether towing a horse trailer or picking up the soccer team, AutoRide continually adjusts the suspension for optimum ride and handling. This technology also helps reduce dive on braking (so that the nose of the vehicle doesn't dip down unduly) and body roll (or lean) during cornering. AutoRide is a $850 option on 1500s, $900 on 2500s, and standard on Denali.
The suspension system soaked up the large potholes and rough terrain we encountered. The independent front suspension flattens the most rugged terrain so that the Yukon XL's passengers feel coddled, while the solid rear axle allows impressive towing capability. The suspension also contributes to the Yukon XL's impressive turning radius when compared with pre-2000 models, useful for crowded parking lots, U-turns, and off-road driving.
Good brakes are important for a vehicle that weighs more than two tons and is sometimes asked to pull heavy trailers. With the Yukon XL's redesign came exceptionally good brakes, with 40 percent larger ventilated discs at the front wheels, and big 13.2-inch discs on the rear axle. While we equate fast emergency braking maneuvers with testing a vehicle's ability to stop, sometimes being able to stop straight and true at slow speeds is important, and the Yukon XL delivers on that front. The previous-generation Suburban had a mushy brake pedal, but that has been replaced with a much firmer pedal in this new Yukon XL for improved driver control.
More than once we were particularly glad for the quick manner in which the driver can shift the Yukon XL in and out of four-wheel drive. Four switches mounted on the left side of the instrument panel make it is easy to change modes. The top switch engages GMC's automatic four-wheel-drive system, Autotrac, which automatically transfers power from the slipping wheel to the wheels with traction. A switch controls two-wheel drive, four-wheel drive and four-wheel drive low-range. This system makes shifting from two-wheel drive to four-wheel drive and back as easy as turning on the radio.
By contrast, the Denali's full-time all-wheel-drive system requires no input from the driver. And it's the best setup in inconsistent conditions (patches of snow and ice, gravel and pavement) because it transfers power to the wheels with the best traction.
Responsiveness from each of the three available V8 engines is excellent. Most people will find the standard 5.3-liter V8 a great companion. Our Denali came with the big 6.0-liter with its 320 horsepower and 360 pound-feet of torque.
All Yukon XL models come with a tow/haul mode for the transmission. Pressing a switch on the end of the gearshift lever changes the shift points of the automatic transmission. The tow/haul mode improves performance while towing through mountainous terrain and lessens wear on the transmission. It does this by holding it in any given gear longer and by shifting more abruptly to reduce heat buildup.
Towing a really heavy trailer? A 1500 model is plenty for pulling a car trailer or a light boat trailer, but you may want to look at the 2500 models if you have a heavy load to pull and you pull it often. Not surprisingly, the 1500 model, which comes with torsion bars up front and coil springs in the rear, smooths out road vibration much better than the 2500 model, which is fitted with rear leaf springs. That comes with th.
If you have the need to move lots of people, loads of stuff, and/or a heavy trailer, all at the same time, then GMC's Yukon XL (or Chevy's Suburban) is the best choice. If you want to add luxury to that equation, take a look at the Denali.

When I received my second diagnosis of breast cancer in November, it came with good and bad news.
The good was that, unlike the first — Stage 3 cancer— this one was in the early stages. No chemotherapy or radiation would be required. The bad was that the treatment was surgery: a mastectomy, removing the entire breast.
The first time, I had no decisions to make; I did what I was told to save my life. The second time, I had a big one: Whether or not to undergo reconstructive surgery. It's an intensely personal decision, and it involves more than body image. A little research at the beginning can help ease possible regrets later on.
Almost 300,000 women receive new breast cancer diagnoses each year. Most of those women have to make their decisions around reconstruction quickly, in the emotionally charged wake of a fresh cancer diagnosis. Nationally, half of all mastectomy patients wind up opting for reconstruction.
Dr. Matthew Ellis is chief of the breast oncology section at the Siteman Cancer Center and a researcher into the causes and cures of breast cancer. He's opposed to leaping into anything without consulting a full team of physicians.
"My personal, deeply felt belief is that (patients) are best served if they can have a decision made in collaboration with a medical oncologist, a surgeon and a radiation oncologist, so that a balance can be set," he said.
Mastectomy and reconstruction offer "an incredibly complex set of issues," he added. The option to have reconstruction "is always there, but often inappropriate. Patients need to be carefully counseled as to the real risks and benefits of going through reconstructive surgery."
When breast cancer is present, reconstructive surgery must be carefully timed with chemotherapy and radiation, Ellis said. "People who've been through chemotherapy are at high risk" of complications.
For decades, breast cancer has been treated with "cut, burn and poison" — surgery, radiation, chemo. In recent years, the order has changed, with chemo coming first and often shrinking the tumor to the point that it's possible to have a lumpectomy instead of a mastectomy.
Increasingly, said Ellis, "we're trying to get the systemic therapy, the chemotherapy, out of the way first. Only when that's all complete, when the patient is healed (from chemo), do we proceed with mastectomy and reconstruction. The cure for breast cancer is the priority."
Radiation adds "a real wild card" to the equation, he said. If breast implants are already in place, it can damage them, as well as the overall appearance of the breast. It also can damage the chest wall, making reconstruction more difficult, and can result in complications.
Dr. Julie A. Margenthaler, a surgeon at Siteman, focuses her practice on breast cancer.
"Reconstruction is a part of every single discussion I have" with new patients, she said. "There are very few contraindications (involved). I would say that the surgical decisions are more focused on the breast surgeon and the plastic surgeon."
Margenthaler said she usually offers immediate reconstruction, done at the same time as the mastectomy. Federal law mandates that insurance cover it. "I help (the patient) understand how she would look with and without reconstruction, and what it would feel like."
Margenthaler agrees that chemo and radiation are considerations, and that killing cancer cells comes first, but she noted that there are ways to preserve appearance that don't get in the way of treatment. "There are some data out there to suggest that there are psychological and emotional benefits to reconstruction, with self-image and issues of sexuality."
Reconstruction at the time of the mastectomy means better-looking results; skin and sometimes nipples can be preserved. But it does come at a cost. Reconstruction adds to recovery time and the number of procedures, it adds pain, and there can be complications, some of them serious. The reconstructed breast "is all look, no feel," said Margenthaler. "There's no sensation."
When implants are used, spacers are put under the muscles of the chest wall. Over a period of months, they're injected with saline solution until they reach the desired size; then permanent implants are put in place. When the patient's own tissues are used (the technical term is "autologous"), a muscle flap is cut from the back or abdomen and secured in place. The recovery time is longer, and there can be permanent loss of muscle strength.
When Jane Feibel faced a mastectomy, she "roamed the Web for information about reconstruction. But, in the end, I saw no point in adding to the list of possible complications."
With "questionable densities" in the other breast, and in consultation with Margenthaler, her surgeon, Feibel had both breasts removed. She has no regrets. She's symmetrical, her scars have healed well, and prosthetics, she said, are easy to wear. "Currently, the big mistake I make is going shopping and forgetting to wear my prosthetics."
Kara Kuhns, 34, is an elementary school speech pathologist from Arthur, Ill.; she and her husband, J.D., have two daughters, ages 5 and 2. Diagnosed in April 2012, Kuhns "figured from the get-go" that she would have reconstruction. "I just thought it would be best and easiest long-term on my self-esteem to have reconstruction. Whatever my doctors thought would be best is what we went with."
Kuhns underwent chemo and surgery, followed by radiation. She had her final reconstruction in May, and she's very happy with the results. "I think it looks very natural."
In my case, a lumpectomy from the first cancer meant that I was already asymmetrical. My oncologist advised that radiation on that side made me a poor candidate for reconstruction.
Unable to face the possibility of a third diagnosis of breast cancer, I opted for a bilateral mastectomy and chose to do without reconstruction. I grieved the loss, but it was the right decision — for me.
Prosthetics and bra-fittings
Below are resources for women in need of prosthetic breast forms and the bras, swimsuits and clothes built to accommodate them. (Make no mistake, you can still wear sexy lingerie.) Some insurance companies will cover the costs of breast forms and mastectomy bras, provided your doctor has written you a prescription.

The American Football League
Hope Y'all Enjoy....
Many of the American Football League principals had thoughts that are still shared by AFL fans and former players today, as we celebrate what would have been the AFL's 50th season.
Jerry Mays said "Nobody hated the NFL like I did. I live in Dallas now and I still can't root for the Cowboys. I can root for the Oakland Raiders, believe it or not, but I can't root for the Cowboys."
Sid Gillman was asked if his '63 Chargers could have beaten the Chicago Bears if a Super Bowl had been played that year. "Absolutely," said Sid.
"And the AFL would have won the next year, too" said Al Davis, "because Buffalo had a helluva club with Tom Sestak, Ron Mcdole, George Saimes, Kemp, Billy Shaw, Stew Barber, Cookie (Gilchrist) and those guys. They would have beaten Cleveland in '64."

High School and Hawaiian Festivals
Events abound in Japan's Autumn, and although the weather still feels of summer, Fall is definitely in swing. This weekend saw a slew of events on Kume Island, dissimilar but also with underlying threads of culture to connect them. High School Festival Kume Island has only one high school for the entire island. It has a variety of classes for its students, but with such a wide range of classes it is difficult for them to fit every activity into

CHICAGO, ILLINOIS -- Daughter involved in auto accident on December 7, 2016. She was hit in the rear bumper. Cut and dry, it was clearly the other driver's fault as he explained to the cop how he could not stop his vehicle in a timely manner, State Farm insured him, or did they? They clearly said they were not going to pay for the damages their insured has caused. Their reason? Their client said he did not hit my daughter, my daughter hit him! Morons! I asked; "what did she do? Throw her car into reverse at 30 mph and hit him?" The State Farm agent name is Dan **. Terrible customer service and ignorant people. NEVER USE STATE FARM!
LAS VEGAS -- I am a young driver, 19, but I have been with State Farm under my moms policy since I was 16, and she has been with State Farm for much much longer with several cars and her house on the policy. I had never had a major accident before and until now I would say that any dealings I have had with State Farm went in my favor and they were always very fair.
So anyway this is what happened, we were on a major street waiting to make a left turn from the turn lane onto a small side street where we were making the left turn there was no stop sign or light. It was just one of the left turn medians. There were two lanes of oncoming traffic that were backed up to the next light so both cars left a gap and politely waved us through. We were creeping around the corner halfway into our turn when we were hit. Apparently a ford expedition had decided it was OK to cut across the traffic at the backed up light by using the right hand turn only lane, and in doing this he basically t-boned us on the passengers side, where I was seated.
The side air bags deployed and we spun in a full circle across the street hitting another car and pulling them into the wreck, finally it ended when we went over the curb and hit a palm tree. Luckily there was no major injuries to anyone. I suffered the most with a very badly bruised forearm and sore back. The guy in the ford expedition claimed full responsibility for the accident at the scene. It was pretty obvious the whole thing had been his fault.
I mean he was going at least 40 mph, not paying attention, and cutting through a right turn only lane (by this I mean that there were two lanes designated as through traffic and the third lane was right turn only onto the side street we were turning on, but instead he went straight through the turn lane.) it was horrible but at least I thought, OK it was his fault totally everything will be good and my car will get repaired off of his policy. This was before I realized that the accident wasn't nearly as bad as dealing with the robots at State Farm. I say robots because they must not have any feelings at all.
When we first made the claim no one would give us answers on how the process works and we got calls from so many different people we didn't know who was who, and no one at our agents office could give us any answers. Then finally the guy at fault in the expedition adjusters got in touch with my mom because she is the main policy holder, by the way he has State Farm also. They told my mom that the accident was split 50 50 for liability and she demanded that was ridiculous. They were so rude to her and even yelled and hung up on her. This was before they even had the police report!
We got the report ourselves because they said it would take them 2 weeks to get it. Once they had the report which cited the ford with full liability and no one else with any citations they decided that he was 80% liable and I was 20%. My mom still did not accept this and asked if the woman had looked at the police report my mom faxed. **, the opposing cars State Farm adjuster, informed my mom very rudely that it didn't matter what the police report said and that her decision was final and that's all my mom would get and then hung up on her.
My mom talked with several of his adjusters and each time they said they same thing. All were very rude people who were trying to manipulate her into agreeing to the 80 20 split, but she stood her ground and denied them. Finally our adjuster call my mom, and she is a nice sweet lady who doesn't seem interested in fighting for our side at all. My mom told her, aren't you supposed to be trying to get us not to have liability? Her response was I tried to get them to go 90 10. I even called a round table! But they wouldn't budge. she then explained to my mom that a round table is when all the adjusters on the case meet and they re-enact the accident with toy cars to determine who is at fault.
Am I the only one that thinks this sounds insane! a bunch of idiots sitting around a table playing with cars get to decide my financial fate? I can't believe this is common practice in this company. So basically State Farm, will screw you over just because they think they can get away with it. I don't understand at all. Me and the driver at fault have the same flippin insurance company! Why did State Farm decide to back him up? Why did they put all the hard hitting adjusters on his side and give me little miss sunshine? It makes them seem really stupid. Isn't the reason I have insurance to be protected when I become a victim? But instead they victimize you more.
Now I have an attorney talking to them since they wouldn't even talk with us after many times of being hung up on. it doesn't seem like they are going to budge though. They even sent us an $800 check, 80% of the $1000 deductible, without my moms consent to that deal. They were just hoping we would cash it so they could close they case. They are so sneaky!
The sad part is if I had more injuries this could have been a case that went to court, but since I'm still walking, well it's just not worth the attorney fees. So while my little Hyundai accent sits totaled by that huge expedition in some junk yard I'm without a car and probably won't see much money to buy a new one. Thanks a lot neighbor... I'm switching to Geico at least they have a cute lizard.
MACHESNEY PARK, ILLINOIS -- After a severe hailstorm, State Farm set up a claim station in Lowe's parking lot. It was so convenient. I got my car looked at and had a check in my hand within less than 40 min. I can take my car anywhere to get it fixed. State Farm also provided body shops in my area. I was very impressed. Thank you State Farm.
I have had State Farm Insurance on my autos since 1995. I also have a couple life policies and I used to also have health and home owners insurance. I recently placed a claim through my car insurance policy. I have not even had an adjuster assigned to my claim and I am already treated like a criminal. The claims representative that I had to deal with was not only rude but was accusing me of trying to put a claim through a policy that was not mine. I gave him the policy number thinking he was looking at the wrong screen and he reassured me that I was the one that was wrong.
I told him I had my insurance card in front of me with my name on it and he told me I was wrong and that was not what he had on his screen. I cannot understand why I am being treated so rudely by my own insurance company. They never have a problem collecting my premiums or increasing my rates when they felt in need. Why should I pay an insurance company like State Farm to take my money on a monthly basis and then feel intimidated when you need to put a claim through.
If this is how I am treated when placing an auto claim, I would hate to see how my relatives will be treated if they would unfortunately need to put a claim through one of our life insurance policies. I am so unhappy right now, I wish I would have invested all these years with a more reputable company. The ironic thing is that their slogan is "like a good neighbor, State Farm is there". I have had good neighbors and the customer service I received today was far from what they preach during their commercials.
CHARLOTTESVILLE, VIRGINIA -- I had two water damage claims in my home. One in Sept. 2008, then another in April of 2009. Water pipes leaked in the walls. The adjuster never even showed up to view the damage. Called the morning of the scheduled appointment and asked me to email him photos of the damage that it could be handled over the phone. I did. Living in a rural area it was hard finding a contractor to even come for an estimate.
Finally found one. He sent me an estimate and shortly after went out of business. I was back at square one. Then the second claim happened. It took the State Farm adjuster 3 weeks to even come to look at the damage. Good thing my house hadn't burned to the ground. He was in and out so fast, he didn't even get all the details. Tried to show him the first claim, he wouldn't look at it. This was the same adjuster. I have spent another 4 months trying to locate a contractor.
State Farm has their own premium contractors. The nearest one to me was almost 2 hours away. No one wants to come to a rural area for what they consider a small job. Finally I had two that actually showed and gave me estimates. Now State farm is REFUSING to pay for the difference in the repairs, from the first guy who obviously under estimated the job, comparing his to the two other estimates I received. How can they refuse anything when their own adjuster NEVER came to view the first damage claim.
They never measured, never came to even look at the damage. I am a professional photographer. I took the photos and sent them per the adjusters request. I have spent too many hours, days, months and now almost a year trying to get this company to pay. Take some advice... their slogan.. Like a good neighbor State Farm is there. With neighbors like this... who needs them.
BLOOMINGTON, IL, ILLINOIS -- I'm older and have been told I'm an insurance company's dream client: a high FICO score and a virtual claim-free past (one previous loss in 30 years). It the following can happen to me, it can happen to anyone. In March, I experienced a sewage back up in my home that cost $70,000 to repair. The SF policy coverage provided a maximum benefit of just $10,000. That, however, is not at issue - I knew that from the outset and accepted it. I attempted to contact my agent to discuss how to proceed, but she failed to call me back for nearly four weeks due to (quote) "personal issues."
Ultimately, the SF claims representative sent me a check for $10,000. When I finally reached my agent, however, she told me that SF would cancel me if I cashed the check. Not wanting to be canceled and left without insurance, I held on to the check and sought other coverage over the course of several months. (During this period, the company called me several times, trying to force me to make a decision to send the check back or cash it.)
I finally found alternative coverage with a good company and wrote my agent several emails asking her to cancel my SF policy. It took her nearly two weeks even to reply to my communications. (Note that the second company insured me knowing about my loss experience and I'm paying an annual fee equivalent to what I was paying - thus, so much for SF's claims of customer loyalty and support.) I finally wrote the SF president Edw. Rust a letter detailing my experiences. I subsequently received calls from not one but three SF representatives, all bent on justifying the company's actions and trying (obviously) to limit the PR damage.
One called me back even after I left her an explicit message saying there was nothing to discuss. So... if you want to receive poor customer service from your agent and you want your company to cancel you after you experience two claims (that were not due to your actions or inactions AND you rectified the source of the problem at your own cost), go with State Farm. Otherwise, run in the other direction.
WEST HILLS, CALIFORNIA -- I was involved in an automobile accident on 04/06/14. I was the passenger of a vehicle that was rear-ended. The driver of the vehicle that rear-ended us had Mercury Insurance and they paid the policy's maximum of $50,000 and awarded the driver and myself $25,000 each.
Our mutual attorney filed a first-party underinsured motorist claim, using the driver's insurance of the vehicle I was in, which is State Farm. The State Farm Adjuster, David **, offered the driver $70,000 new money and offered me nothing although both of us suffered nearly identical shoulder tear injuries. The tears in our shoulders were verified by the results of MRIs we received. Moreover, the majority of the damage was on the passenger side on the rear of the vehicle.
I am also unsure why the adjuster was asking my attorney about my longevity since it had nothing to do with the accident. I have stage 4 breast cancer metastatic to the bone. The adjuster stated to my attorney that the reason he was offering zero is because I waited 6 weeks to be treated and the damage to the car was minimal. I had in fact gone to Urgent Care immediately after the accident, but the office was closing. Based on my MRI results, it showed that the tear on my shoulder was a result of the accident.
The other reason the adjuster gave my attorney for offering zero was because I had already been paid by Mercury Insurance. It was explained to the adjuster by my attorney that I had waited six weeks after the urgent care to treat further because I had just had a Bilateral Mastectomy less than 90 days prior to the accident and that I was hoping the pain in my shoulder would go away. It is my contention that the adjuster David ** has discriminated against me and ultimately made the decision not to pay me as he is banking on the fact that I have stage 4 breast cancer metastatic to the bone, and I may not live long enough to go through the arbitration process.
MICHIGAN -- This information is EXTREMELY condensed to share the jist of our problems, and to avoid using names, and too many details. On Jan. 15 2009 the engine of our car caught fire. As of today 9.21.2009 our car still has not been fixed, and has been sitting in a repair shop for the last 30 days because it's undrivable. The jist of our problems include State Farm using parts from a junk yard to effect repair of our little $5,000 family car.
The car has not run properly since the day it was returned to us by the first mechanic, and two dealership mechanics have not been able to resolve the issue, and keep telling us the damage is not a result of the fire, and sending us a bill. When it was State Farms decision to make the initial repairs. In spite of my protest State Farm went ahead with repairs, and since I've gotten the car back it has been returned to the original mechanic 4 times.
It's been to a Second dealership mechanic to replace the PCM, where it was diagnosed by a Ford Dealership with a drivability issue, but the second mechanic stated the car ran fine, and returned the vehicle to us. When the car was returned to us. We were told it was "FIXED" which was a lie. The car stalls, it did not shift gears properly, and it fails to start in cold weather.
On the 4th return visit, the mechanic said he was sick of dealing with us, and that our piece of junk car was not working properly due to lack of maintenance. not fire damage. I strongly recommend people avoid using State Farm Insurance, because IF you should ever have to file a claim. You will not have a say in how the car is repaired, or replaces. You will not have a say in what parts are used, and no one from the company will give a crap when it all falls apart, and your stuck walking to work after paying 5,000 cash for a car that is now worthless 1 year after buying it. And if there is ANY one able to offer suggestions on how I can fight this company please contact me.
ST. CLOUD, MINNESOTA -- Hit a deer on the way to work one morning. Called State Farm agent to see what next step is. He referred me to a local body shop that is part of their repair program. I went to shop, they gave me a rental car, and said they would take care of the rest. State Farm paid for the rental, and all the repairs on my car. $2800 in damages to the right front corner.
Everything was taken care of, and I paid my deductible of $250 to the shop when it was done. Shop even cleaned up the car, and did a detail on it, and said that it is part of their agreement with State Farm. The "team" that helped me on my claim was pretty quick in answering questions, and called me back within minutes of leaving a voicemail with a question about who I pay the deductible to. Really, no issues at all. Heck, my car looks better now than it did before the accident.
Long story short - Snow knocked down part of my fence and I put in a claim. Since part of my fence was already leaning over and broken out of the ground, the wind took down the rest of the fence within a week due to support was gone. I called and told them and they were more than happy to open a new claim for the second part of the fence. Turns out, they drop you for 2 claims. If I knew this then, I would of never let the claim representative make it into 2 claims. Now, I am not being renewed and the quotes I'm getting because of the 2 claims on my record are more than twice what I was paying. THANK YOU STATE FARM.

As Florida prepares for an important SEC series with Tennessee on Friday night, Gushue is red hot.
The glove sits there on the desk next to his bed, kind of his version of "Wilson" from the movie "Cast Away." It speaks to him when times are going good and not so good.
The catcher's mitt was a gift from New York Yankees manager Joe Girardi, a pretty fair catcher himself, to Taylor Gushue when Gushue was a high school junior.
"He wrote on it, 'Never stop believing and never be satisfied,' " Gushue said. "I look at it and know that when things are going bad you have to keep believing, and when they are going well you can't be satisfied. You have to keep working."
Gushue has received inspiration from the glove, and he's needed it. How many college baseball players have experienced what he has been through by the time they are barely 19 years old?
Gushue burst on the scene as a freshman who should have still been in high school. He homered on the first college pitch he saw. By March 5, he had already been named SEC Freshman of the Week twice.
But the game caught up to him. By the time the season ended, he was a .206 hitter hoping to get some at-bats here and there.
"It was hard going through that," Gushue said. "I'd never been through anything like that before. I tasted success, but I tasted all that failure, too. It was a humbling experience.
"It puts things in perspective. You're not going to have success all the time."
On a team loaded with stars, Gushue faded into the background last year. But he was also learning how to play catcher from one of the best ever at Florida — Mike Zunino.
"Taylor and I and his family thought last year would be a learning situation that would catapult him to a great season," Florida coach Kevin O'Sullivan said. "He's right where we thought he'd be. Right now, he's a better player for making that decision out of high school."
But at the start of the season, Gushue looked a lot like the player who struggled in the second half last year. He wasn't hitting, wasn't providing any power and was struggling to be the everyday catcher. In one game he infamously failed to throw out a base stealer on a pitch out.
So he turned to the glove.
"The first part of the year brought back some of those memories from last year," Gushue said. "I'm not going to say there weren't any doubts. When you're struggling, everything is going 100 mph.
"You can't look over your shoulder, but you can't help from doing it. I was privileged to have that glove from Joe Girardi. It just told me to keep believing."
As Florida prepares for an important SEC series with Tennessee on Friday night at 7, Gushue is red hot. He has brought his average up to .302 by hitting .324 in SEC games where the pitching is supposed to be better than in non-conference games. Three of his four homers have come in SEC games.
And behind the plate, he has yet to make an error in a conference game after making seven in non-conference games.
"It's all about confidence," Gushue said. "Relax and know you can do it. When you don't have confidence in anything, it's miserable."
Gushue will be a key factor in the weekend series against the Vols, who play a West Coast style of baseball with aggressive base-running.
"Every game is so important right now," O'Sullivan said. "We're just thinking about the next one."
