Bright Eyes
With Cursive
Fillmore Miami, Miami Beach
Wednesday, March 2, 2011
In the middle of Bright Eyes' set at Fillmore Miami, Conor Oberst acknowledged that spending six years away from Miami was too long. Judging by the bevy of tears dripping down elated faces in the crowd, even 24 hours without this wonder boy would be a painful wait for some. It was fitting that the rain poured down after Wednesday night's concert on Miami Beach -- except if you were this guy. Even the skies can't hold this much raw emotion inside for long.
As expected, all of this fuss was worth it. The precision displayed by a mop-topped Oberst and his six-piece backing band -- featuring two drummers, a bassist, two "multi-instrumentalists," and the Mynabirds' lovely singer, Laura Burhenn, on backing vocals and keyboards -- showed that their three days of rehearsals at the venue were fruitful. Although there were pronounced pauses between songs, it's likely a result of Oberst needing a breather after a good bit of thrashing around his surroundings.
The stage itself was quite a jumble of faux-futuristic props from outer space -- the most noticeable part being two halves of a crescent moon creating bookends for the performers. As the night spanning a mostly Americana-oriented set with numbers from all of his albums from the past decade progressed, the moons took on different colors to set the mood for each song. During new song "Beginner's Mind," Oberst, clad in a dark, buttoned-down shirt with the cuffs flying free, turned around and caught a quick glimpse of himself up on the video screens in the back.
For anyone who has waited a full six years since the last experience with Bright Eyes, this writer included, the biggest shift was undoubtedly Oberst's calmness onstage. The self-confessed drunk who used to take steady pulls off beers throughout performances in the past, was too wrapped up in his artistry to bother with drink, for the most part. On this night, he was intoxicated with the world's conflicts in Egypt, Libya, and Pakistan and flicked his arm out while urging the crowd, "If you give a shit, do something about it."
Soaked with Mike Mogis' pedal steel, "Old Soul Song (For the New World Order)" from I'm Wide Awake, It's Morning proved to be the right punctuation for his speech. By the building refrain of "they went wild," a stomping Oberst and his backing band went wild themselves. As their leader let his voice turn to a screech, the crowd continued what went on all night: singing along with every word.
Although "Shell Games" was definitely in the running, "Lua" proved to be the emotional breaking point of the night. With just an acoustic guitar and Nathaniel Walcott providing a jazzy horn backing, Oberst got every couple in the room to hold each other tighter. Under the evening's softest lights, he must have penetrated even the most jaded with this beautiful rendition of the pleasures and pains of love and drugs in New York.
If this level of cataloged obsession makes the Bright Eyes frontman uncomfortable, he hides it in the darkened stage, hair over his eyes, and in his defiant poses. This lingering sulk brings out a crowd of nurturers. He still took several opportunities to touch the hands of the mostly female crowd up front, and shrieks came pouring out. "Miami, you're so sweet," he said before launching into "a song about anonymous sex," the Cure descendant to "Bad Acting." As he played the organ onstage, it seemed as if he were playing every female's organ in the room as well.
Critic's Notebook
The crowd: Young, earnest, and sober. Who needs alcohol when you have Conor?

Personal bias: In spite of Oberst's regular flailing and head-banging, the mighty "Road to Joy" inspired one of the most polite ruckuses from the audience.
Overheard: From a group of girls leaving the show, "His hands are so soft." "He touched you? I can't believe he didn't touch me."

Formatt Combination Linear Polarizing and 85 Glass Filter - Light rays which are reflected become polarized. Polarizing filters are used to select which light rays enter your camera lens. They can remove unwanted reflections from non-metallic surfaces such as water or glass and also saturate colors providing better contrast. The effect can be seen through the viewfinder and changed by rotating the filter. The filter factor varies according to how the filter is rotated and its orientation to the sun.
Using tungsten film in daylight will produce a bluish cast. The 85 series will produce natural colors when shooting tungsten film outdoors.
This 85/polarizer combo filter converts Type B (tungsten) film to daylight and produces slightly cooler results than the 85B.
Formatt, a company with three generations of professional filter-making experience produces every filter to the highest technical standards. The finest materials, together with state of-the-art production technology have resulted in a standard of optical excellence unmatched anywhere else.
Note: Linear polarizers are used with most manual focus cameras and are not recommended for auto-focus cameras. All auto-focus and certain manual focus cameras require circular polarizers. Consult your instruction manual.

Celebrity Sighting down in Playoffs
Maybe it is just me, but it seems like the celebrity baseball fans are not straying into the ALCS/NLCS ballparks yet. Oh, there have been a few A and B-list sightings of the famous both from the entertainment field,and some current or former sports stars sitting in the seats near the field. But it might seems to be a bit, well empty compared to some recent seasons.
But since I am not sitting in either Yankee Stadium, or Dodger Stadium during these games, maybe I am out of the sight lines to glancing upon or just visually missing the boat on the celebrity onslaught that seems to follow a "winning" team as they head towards a possible World Series berth. Maybe it is just too nice weather-wise in Los Angeles right now. And we know that the Arctic winds have dampened only the seats in Yankee Stadium in the first two games of the ALCS.
But then again, maybe the weather is a bit……..well, chilly for the celebrity style folks to flock outside the confines of the Hard Rock Cafe or even a Club Level Suite right now at Yankee Stadium. But it can be such great public relations coupes and established city cred to see or be seen in the masses wearing the blue pinstripes. But then again, I am not hoping for a huge explosion of celebrity sightings to increase when the Phillies open their home set of the series tomorrow, but then again, it is home to a lot of very unique people.
I am not really trying to complain about the lack of the celebrity mobs not flocking to the ballparks, it just seemed like there were more visual sighting in 2008 when Boston and Tampa Bay played at Tropicana Field. But then again, they were in a controlled environment where the temps never reached far above 78 degrees either even with a full house screaming at the top of their lungs. I remember bumping into comedian/minor league baseball team owner Bill Murray near the Food Courts on the First Base side while he was buying some cinnamon encrusted almonds for the game ( great taste in edibles Bill).
Or even catching a photo op with WWE superstar John Cena at a Rays after party following Game 2 of the ALCS up in the Cigar Bar at the Trop. It was a invitation only event mostly for the Rays employees, but I snagged a pass and shook many a hand of friends within the Rays organization that wondered how I could have wrangled such an invite. But they forget, where there is a will, there is a way with me.
And there have been some nice sightings so far in this round of the playoffs. It was great to see that Miley's dad could make it out to Chavez Ravine for Game 1 of the NLCS. With strands of his well coiffed mini mullet swaying the breeze, his southern twang ringing through the PA system, he offered a fantastic rendition of the National Anthem.
It must an ever increasing problem for Billy Ray Cyrus to always been seen as "Miley's Dad" by people under 18, but as "Doc" or the "Achy Breaky Man" to the rest of us. But it is awesome to see he still loves the game, and I hoped he stayed and watched it that day because even with the Dodger loss, it was a great game to watch in person.
Then on Friday, there was a glance of Los Angeles Laker guard Kobi Bryant sitting with Dodger Team owner Frank McCourt and Tommy Lasorda down near the field level for Game 2 of the NLCS game. We know Bryant has a huge love of all sports, even if his second choice of sports teams tend to range to a certain soccer team in Spain. But by the pictures, it seemed like he got into the flow of the game and had a great time. Hopefully he can again be coaxed to attend another game soon and become a lifetime Dodger faithful.
Also during that Friday game fans in attendance got to see members of the boy band, The Backstreet Boys as they performed "Take Me Out to the Ballgame" during the 7th inning stretch. You can bet that there was a bevy of fabulous harmonies and a few great vocal scale moves that kept the crowd either looking towards the big screen or towards the field during their performance.
Now we move eastbound into the big stadium in the Bronx for a Friday night game to begin the 2009 ALCS in some chilly weather that had more than a few people bundled up looking more like a cocoon. I think we might have had sightings of even more celebrity or famous ballplayers in the stands if not for the sweeping chill produced by the wind swirling in the stadium. For some reason, extreme conditions and celebrities only go along in their movie roles.
But we did get a picture of the spinal cord and backside of former Yankee great Tino Martinez sitting up in one of the enclose suites chatting and talking with a table full of people. Fox made sure to focus in on the table and sit there for about a minute, with Tino finally looking towards the field a few times, so we know it was Tino and not some fake sighting. And that might also be a problem. Sometimes in conditions like that everyone can look like someone else when wearing a woolly ski cap and a big jacket.
But the person who seemed to have gained the most photo ops during the last months of the season is the "alleged" girlfriend/BFF Kate Hudson who again had those primo seats just beyond the top of the Yankees dugout on the Third Base line. I am not going to rouse the rumor mill again if she is or is not even dating a certain Yankee player.
In neither of the pictures posted the last few nights do we see anything hot in her hand, or even a head covering, but we hope that the thin blond one did not catch a head cold or even a glimpse of the sniffles. But it is rewarding to see she is facing the elements like the rest of the Yankee faithful and enjoying the game among the regular fans. Let's hope that our own MLBlogs "Confessions of a She-Fan" can make it out to a game or two in Anaheim to throw her mug up there to compete with the "Kate Hudson's" of the world. I would be blown away to see Lady Jane on the television screen, but not surprised in the least.
But also during the Friday night game in the Bronx, they invited one of their own back to throw out the First Pitch before the game. David Cone, who pitched for the Pinstripes from 1996-2000 and produced 55 victories in his time with the Yankees threw a perfect strike across the plate before Game 1 of the ALCS. And Cone, who owns a great eating establishment in Oldsmar, in the Tampa Bay area looks like he could still pull spot duty in the Bullpen.
And even if a bunch of the ex-players and celebrities were not in plain sight, you have to guess that there were more than a dozen hidden up behind the frosted glass enjoying the game either by television or sitting near the windows enjoying CC Sabathia's dominance in that first game. And we all know of a few out in L A who enjoy seats up in the Club Level and are usual visitors to the games, and might not be considered "event-based" celebrities by the loyal Dodger fans
So hopefully tonight when the NLCS proceeds in Citizens Bank Park the Philly celebrity faithful will come on down and represent their town and cheer for their boys. Let's just hope that Darryl Hall and John Oates are not the only ones we see in the seats tonight during the game.
This city has a bevy of talented celebrities. We all know that Kevin Bacon is a proud member of the "City of Brotherly Love". But did you know comedians David Brennan, Tina Fey and Bob Saget call this city their own. And something I never knew before, 2/3rds of the "Three Stooges", Larry Fine and Curly Joe DeRita came from this Pennsylvania town.
I am personally going to be searching for someone dressed up in a powdered wig and bi-focals and trying to present a "Where is Ben Franklin" moment in CBP. Seriously, I know the economy is tight, and even Nicholas Cage is said to be broke as an old clock right now, but this is the time that these cities need to see their famous brethren basking in the glow of another successful season.
So as the venues swap this week, it is going to be interesting to see if any celebrities will be in attendance
in Los Angles/Anaheim this week when the Yankees come to town. There might be a few wearing Yankees gear, like Hudson, but let's hope some of the Anaheim faithful also come out and support the teams resurgence into the ALCS.
Maybe we will see Bobby Hatfield who was a part of the "Righteous Brothers", or maybe even Gwen Stefani of the group "No Doubt" singing the National Anthems or during the 7th Inning stretch. For this region of California also has its special and famous people who will hopefully come out and support the Angels. But I guess we will see.
But just seeing some of these special people enjoying the sport we love so well, and cheering along with us seems to boost the energy and the vibe in a stadium. And you know the camera people are forever seeking out these elusive personalities either in the suites or stuck among the thousands in the stands. Hopefully someday a few of us writing on MLBlogs.com could be featured on the big screen as a sports journalist, or even a novelist by our own "Confessions of a She-Fan" Jan Heller.

Yikes, Renegade. I didn't expect to see myself when I popped over here today! LOL. I'm still debating whether to splurge on tix for Tuesday in Anaheim. And if I do, believe me when I tell you they won't be within camera range. They're more likely to be up in the nosebleed section. I have a friend who keeps promising "awesome seats," supposedly via the Angels organization, but they have yet to materialize. So we'll see what happens tomorrow.
Knowing you are the premier West Coast Yankee supporter, they ought to do something for you.
Heck, Mark should give you a number to call. You should get some sort of prize for staying near the top for the entire year.
"Awesome seats", I have heard that myself from Rays players when I travel to away games, but I buy my tickets off sights near the field and usually get a 2-second spot during the three games (lol).
Rays Renegade
In the last month or so, I have seen a few celebs in Philly…Tony Danza, Danny DeVito, Kevin Bacon, Paul Rudd and even Jack Nicolson. Bumped into Rudd at the game he attended. Still waiting to see Will Smith…love him!
The "Fresh Prince".
Now that would be a wild sighting indeed. Paul Rudd would seem like a guy who would sit in the stands with the fans like a regular Joe. But the sight of Jack would be amazing too.
For some wild reason, I think a big part of that celebrity hiding might be due to weather, timing and maybe something as simple as their schedule doesn't permit it right now.
Rays Renegade
Until I read your post, I had no idea that Curly Joe DeRita, who was the next to last member of the Three Stooges, was born in Philly. Larry Fine I knew was from Philly, since he and I both graduated from the same high school that comedian Bill Cosby graduated from, Central High School.
Every once in a while I seem to find something that no one has heard before.not often, but I can still surprise people some days.
I saw a photo of Danny DeVito wearing a "Always Sunny in Philadelphia" cap during Game 2 of the NLCS out at Dodgers Stadium.
So one Philly guy besides Kevin Bacon has been seen out in the public at Philly games.
Rays Renegade
Well this post of seeing Tommy Lasorda and Kobe put a tiny smile on my face after being totally depressed after tonight's game.
I saw Tony Devito walking alongside me at Dodger Stadium after the conclusion of game 2 of the NLCS. I had not noticed he was there until my brother mentioned it.
Sandy Koufax_and that is THE ONLY celebrity I would care to see_ was sitting with Frank McCourt at game tonight.
I know I am one person who would love to see Sandy Koufax.
It has been a bit sparse in the celebrity sightings, but I know Hooters original pin-up girl Lynne Austin's ex-husband threw out the first pitch on Sunday night.
I know she would not be there, but I do get to see her Tweets every day.
I am keeping my eyes open just in case someone extra special hit the screen……………….like Bill Cosby or Bret Michaels.

Candidate presented by: Mr. Joseph D. Kearney, Dean of the Law School
The Honorable Anne M. Burke is a leader not merely in the development of the law but in the life of the Catholic Church and our larger society. Her example in any of these spheres alone could provide an ample basis for extraordinary recognition by Marquette.
Justice Burke did not wait for training in the law to be of service to others. While working as a physical education teacher in her native Chicago, in 1968 she played a leading role in establishing the Chicago Special Olympics in the service of individuals with intellectual disabilities. Out of her efforts would grow the International Special Olympics, whose reach today, some four decades later, extends to more than 150 countries around the world. Millions of individuals have participated in the Special Olympics, and still more, through its work, have been enabled, empowered, and inspired. In 1968 the competition was not immediately well-received. The news media at the time thought it was exploitative. "We had to turn people's attitudes around, and it was very challenging. We needed a strong force — and Anne was that force," says Barbara Lee Cohen, former Executive Director of Special Children's Charities.
Seeking to serve in other ways, after being married and while raising a family, Justice Burke graduated from DePaul University and law school at Chicago-Kent College of Law. She established a neighborhood law practice, serving individuals in myriad ways from civil to criminal matters, with special attention to the needs of children and families. She became an Illinois state court judge in 1991, was appointed to the Illinois State Appellate Court in 1996 (and subsequently elected to a full term), and was appointed to the Illinois Supreme Court in 2006 and subsequently elected to a 10-year term. During her time on the Illinois Supreme Court, Justice Burke has written important opinions in areas of common, statutory, and constitutional law.
Even in the midst of her judicial service, Justice Burke has found time to serve the Catholic Church in a major capacity. In 2002 the United States Conference of Catholic Bishops appointed her to the National Review Board for the Office of Child and Youth Protection, a body which she eventually served as their Interim Chair. In this capacity, and thereafter as a member of the church and a public citizen, Justice Burke sought with respect to allegations and instances of sexual abuse by clerics to identify the truth by her best lights and to speak it. Her difficult but important service in this sphere demonstrates Justice Burke's vigorous, thorough, and unyieldingly pursuit of truth.
Justice Burke earlier received the Joseph E. O'Neill Award from the Marquette Law School's National Sports Law Institute. Her remarks on that occasion and willingness to participate in the Law School's program are further evidence of Justice Burke's enthusiasm for and commitment to future leaders, whether they be in the church, the law, or the larger society.
Because of her innovation in founding the Chicago Special Olympics, her extraordinary contributions to justice, and her exemplary public service, Reverend President, I hereby recommend Anne M. Burke for the Marquette University degree of Doctor of Laws, honoris causa.

The consequences of a server or broker failure in an (HTTP or HTTPS) connection vary depending on the specific component that has failed:
If the application server or Web server fails and is restarted, all existing connections are restored with no effect on clients.
If the broker fails and is restarted, an exception is thrown and clients must reestablish their connections.
In the unlikely event that both the broker and the application server or Web server fail and the broker is not restarted, the application server or Web server will restore client connections and continue waiting for a broker connection without notifying clients. To avoid this situation, always restart the broker after a failure.

40% Rye Bread
40% Rye BreadHi Everyone,I baked a small batch of Hi Everyone, I baked a small batch of 40% Rye bread using the formula in Jeffery Hamelman's "Bread" book. I haven't made a lighter Rye bread in some time what with all the Vollkornbrot flying around everywhere. This was very satisfying and I was enjoying some later in the afternoon with butter, Jarlsberg cheese and a hot cup of strong tea. Very yummy.

All the single ladies: Put your hands up!
The largest U.S. jewelry chain on Wednesday decided to put a ring on its much smaller rival, creating a $6 billion jewelry juggernaut with expansive reach in North America.
Signet Jewelers, owner of Jared The Galleria with its "He went to Jared" slogan and Kay Jeweler with its "Every Kiss Begins with Kay" ads, agreed to buy Zale for roughly $900 million.
Turns out, diamonds aren't just a girl's proverbial best friend; Investors seemed to like them on Wednesday, too. On news of the planned acquisition, Signet's stock rose more than 18 percent, while shares of Zale soared more than 40 percent.
The deal underscores the harsh realities of the $32. 8 billion jewelry business since the Great Recession. Sales of necklaces, rings and other jewels got hammered during the economic downturn as shoppers pulled back on their discretionary purchases.
Now, business is slowly starting to come back during the economic recovery. But there are still a number of jewelry chains in the market, and sales are still far from their pre-recession peak of more than $36 billion in 2006.
"The deal is a rational response to the imbalance of supply and demand," said Craig Johnson, president of Customer Growth Partners, a retail consultancy in New Canaan, Conn. "There are too many stores chasing too few jewelry buyers."
In fact, analysts say the abundance of stores is a scenario that has played out in malls across the country where some of Signet's stores go head-to-head with Zales stores. But they say Signet has fared better.
Signet has 1,400 Jared and Kay stores in the U.S. and 500 stores in the U.K. under the names H. Samuel and Ernest Jones. Kay has tried attracting customers by creating exclusive collections under names like Jane Seymour.
Signet Jewelers Ltd., which is based in Bermuda, reported that revenue at stores opened at least a year rose 5 percent during in November and December combined. By division, the sales metric at Kay rose 5.6 percent, while at Jared sales rose 5.6 percent during that period.
On the other hand, Zale Corp., which is based in Dallas, has 1,680 stores in North America under Zales, Gordon's and other names. The company, which went through a liquidity crisis in 2009, has been trying to expand its bridal merchandise.
Zale, which has closed hundreds of stores, returned to a profit in its most recent fiscal year, which ended July 31. More recently the company reported its sales in stores open at least one year rose 2 percent in November and December. By division, Zales branded stores had a 4.4 percent increase in the sales metric for the two-month period.
Together, the two chains would have 16 percent of the U.S. jewelry market, according to IBISWorld, a market research firm.
But even before the acquisition, Signet, with expected annual revenue at $4.2 billion in the latest fiscal year ended in January, was the largest jewelry chain. Higher-end Tiffany & Co. has anticipated annual revenue of $4.0 billion, with a wider international presence in such countries as the United Arab Emirates and China.
As part of the deal, Signet said it will pay $21 per share. That's a 41 percent premium to Zale's $14.91 Tuesday closing price. Zale has about 32.9 million outstanding shares, according to FactSet, for which Signet would pay about $690 million.
Part of the deal are about 11.1 million warrants, a security issued by a company that gives the holder the right to buy securities, owned by Golden Gate Capital, a 22 percent stakeholder in Zale, according to Zale spokeswoman Roxane Barry. Signet entered into a voting and support agreement with Golden Gate.
The companies value the deal at $1.4 billion, including assumed debt. Excluding the roughly $500 million in debt Zale had as of Oct. 31, according to SEC filings, but including the price to buy out Golden Gate's warrants, the deal is worth about $900 million.
The acquisition still needs approval from Zale shareholders. Killion is expected to remain Zale CEO. Killion said in a statement that the move will help accelerate growth, coming after Zale completed its "multi-year turnaround program to return to profitability."
AP Business Writer Michelle Chapman in New York contributed to this report.

text: We love Mexican food around here. I love it even more when I know that it's healthy! These tacos are hands-down the best I've ever had ... they are irresistible and healthy! The key is the homemade taco seasoning; it's a great mix of spices, it's low-sodium, and you can even omit the salt altogether if you really have to limit your salt intake. For these tacos, I used canned black beans and canned tomatoes, but it can be recreated using fresh tomatoes and soaked black beans...another option for those watching their sodium intake. This is a great site on soaking dried beans. We use Mission Carb Smart tortillas, and top the meat mixture with an easy homemade guacamole, sour cream, and cheese. This is truly my favorite meal lately, and a great addition to a "Taco Night" - you won't be disappointed! Wishing you best dishes and yummy dreams!

Have you been trying to get in one of the institute courses with Thomas W. Jones and missed registering in the first four minutes? Well here is another chance to take his course!
I posted about the 2014 courses at the Genealogical Research Institute of Pittsburgh (GRIP) yesterday, and my friend Elissa Powell sent me a second press release with breaking news to share with my readers.
PRESS RELEASE—7 August 2013
The Genealogical Research Institute of Pittsburgh (GRIP) announced that GRIP ON THE ROAD will be held August 3-8, 2014, in Orchard Lake, Michigan, near Detroit, on the campus of the Orchard Lake Schools. GRIP is proud to have been invited to take "GRIP on the Road" and conduct an institute in conjunction with PARI (Polonica Americana Research Institute) located on the beautiful campus of the Polish Mission in Orchard Lake, just north of Detroit.
GRIP already sponsors a week-long institute in the suburbs of Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, the third week of July with co-directors Deborah Lichtner Deal and Elissa Scalise Powell, CG, CGL. This additional opportunity will make this type of education available to a wider audience.
Four courses will be offered in Orchard Lake:
Intermediate Genealogy: Tools for Digging Deeper with Paula Stuart-Warren, CG, FMGS, FUGA.
Determining Kinship Reliably with the Genealogical Proof Standard with Thomas W. Jones, Ph.D., CG, CGL, FASG, FUGA, FNGS.
Bridging the 1780-1840 Gap: From New England to the Midwest with D. Joshua Taylor, MA, MLS.
Polish Genealogy with Cecile Wendt Jensen, MA, CG.
Polonica Americana Research Institute (PARI), the Polish Mission's genealogy center, is part of the Orchard Lake Schools which was founded in 1885 by Polish immigrants as a center to preserve Polish-American culture and history. PARI was founded in 2008 by Cecile Wendt Jensen, MA, CG, with the support of Polish Mission Director Marcin Chumiecki. PARI's Co-Director is Dr. Hal Learman. For more information on PARI, see www.PolishMission.com/genealogy.
Registration for this new institute opportunity will open Tuesday, February 25, 2014. We hope that this additional opportunity to sign up for popular courses will meet potential students' needs.
For more information, please see www.GRIPitt.org under "Courses." If you are a Mocavo.com Plus subscriber, please see the August 7 interview with Elissa Scalise Powell, CG, CGL, who talks more about the institute and genealogical education in general.

Israel News - Stay Informed, Pray Informed
A new brand of Replacement Theology built atop Jesus' teachings of compassion and attacking those who would support the State of Israel on biblical grounds is permeating the Church. Known locally as Palestinian Liberation Theology, the movement got a major boost in 2010 with the release of the documentary film "With God on Our Side," which presented a critical view of Christian Zionism, and the first Christ at the Checkpoint conference, during which some speakers attempted to equate Jesus' suffering with Israeli mistreatment of the Palestinian Arabs.
The second Christ at the Checkpoint conference at the Bethlehem Bible College in March 2012 promises to further advance the cause. And this time, Israelis are paying attention, many of them confused over how portions of an Evangelical Church that had so vigorously supported their nation's prophetic restoration could now be championing its delegitimization.

text: Durban - Faf du Plessis has called on the Proteas to maintain their momentum after leading the side to a commanding eight-wicket victory over New Zealand, in his debut as captain, in the first T20 international in Durban on Friday. Rory Kleinveldt's three-wicket haul highlighted an impressive bowling display from South Africa as they bundled the tourists out for a paltry 86 runs in 18.2 overs. Du Plessis then struck an unbeaten 38 off 32, and along with a handy 28 off 23 balls from debutant Quinton de Kock, carried his side to an easy win with 47 deliveries to spare.VIDEO: Proteas v Black Caps - highlightsGALLERY: Proteas v Black Caps 1st T20I "It's a great start. As captain you want these sort of games. Everything went well," he said. "All the bowling changes worked, everyone took wickets, everyone bowled well. We had them under pressure the whole time, our fielding was excellent and then our batting was also really good. "So it was a very good game, but we've set a good standard now, which is going to be crucial for us to try and keep throughout the series." Apart from Kleinveldt's return of 3/18, there were double wicket hauls for Dale Steyn (2/13), debutant Chris Morris (2/19) and spinner Robin Peterson, whose 2/8 was the most economical figures by a Proteas bowler in T20 cricket. Du Plessis felt the discipline they displayed had set them up for the comprehensive win, which was made all the more impressive considering their starting XI featured three debutants -- batsman Henry Davids, wicketkeeper De Kock and pace bowler Morris. He admitted, however, that the Kingsmead track had made it difficult to score runs. "The conditions were tough and if they got 120 or 130 I think it would have been quite a challenging score," the skipper said. "In hindsight, it's a nice thing that we batted second because we knew what the wicket was going to be like. "Maybe they didn't assess the conditions that well and we learnt from their mistakes and played accordingly." New Zealand captain Brendon McCullum, one of six batsmen in their top seven who failed to reach double figures, said the tourists had fallen short with their attacking approach. "We just couldn't execute our skills the way we wanted to and that's effectively whey we lost the game," McCullum said. "I thought we were overly keen, myself included, just to get into the series and to take South Africa on. "We were beaten by a better team. It was one of those situations that happen in Twenty20 cricket where you try to be overly aggressive, you give away early wickets and you don't make the opposition work as hard as you need to." South Africa face New Zealand in the second round of the three-match series in East London on Sunday.

Due to scheduling conflicts and issues beyond their control, Edmonton's Prairie Wrestling Alliance hasn't had many shows this year. Thus, they needed a big show when they relaunched on October 9th. Taking eight of the best talent in Alberta and putting them in the ring for an hour, they pulled it off with a classic match capping off the best independent wrestling card in Alberta in 2004.
Dubbed "Night of Champions" the "Iron Man Match" featured the tag champion foursome of Damage Inc split into two teams: Duke Durrango & Greg Pawluk on one side and Dean Durrango and new member Randy Myers on the other. The Stampede Bulldogs and The Funky Bunch were determined to take the straps. What unfolded before a red-hot crowd at the Extreme Zone on the former army barracks was 60 minutes of wrestling that would have fans raving anywhere in the world. Blending scientific wrestling with comedy and high flying, the match was a clinic that kept the crowd into it the entire match, a difficult feat for any wrestler.
The fans were very vocal all night, chanting for moves and wrestlers to be tagged and in support for the Bulldogs TJ Wilson & Harry Smith and the Funky Bunch's Marky Mark and Phoenix Taylor, chanting their names when they faced off against Damage Inc. However when Wilson and Mark squared off for the first time, the crowd was torn resulting in half chanting "Let's go TJ" followed by the rest chanting, "Let's go Marky."
The first pinfall didn't occur until 11 minutes into the match, when both Durrango's were tagged in and Dean lay down for Duke to score the pinfall. Although Damage Inc would take an early lead; over the next fifty minutes all eight men would score a pinfall, tying the match up at two falls apiece. With the clock ticking down, Harry Smith blocked a frankenstiener by Phoenix Taylor and lifted him up into a powerbomb position, while Wilson sprung off the top rope with a blockbuster. Taylor's partner Marky Mark unwittingly dove off the top to Damage Inc on the floor, allowing the Bulldogs to take the deciding fall. Everyone brawled in the closing thirty seconds, but it wasn't enough, the crowd roared in appreciation not only for the Bulldog's title win but also for the effort of all the participants.
The main event was the main draw of the show, but the undercard was rounded out with more solid wrestling and something for everyone. PWA Champion Chris Steele and challenger Tex Gaines took it to the floor, brawling throughout the crowd where Gaines took out three rows of chairs with Steele. The champion rebounded by dragging a hockey net into the crowd and scoring a goal with Gaines' head. Steele powered the nearly 300 pound Gaines onto his shoulders and got the duke with a TKO.
PWA Cruiserweight Champion The Highlander was scheduled to defend against Ricky Rage, but the champion sustained an injury that resulted in him being stripped of the title. Rage locked up with high-flyer Pete Wilson for the vacant belt. Wilson struck hard and fast, taking to the air to dive to the floor onto Rage and connect in the ring with a flipping splash for a near fall. The high flying backfired when he attempted to take Rage off the top, and instead was planted on his head with a inverted suplex driver and pinned.
The show kicked off with popular PWA rookie Mr. Grizz facing local wrestler "Superstar" JD Michaels, who was making his PWA debut. The match was an excellent opener with Michaels was initially cheered, but when he started clapping his hands to get the crowd going, they chanted rhythmically "Grizz Grizz Grizz." The two men traded holds and moves while the fans continued to stick behind Grizz. Michaels scaled the ropes like his WWE namesake and planted an elbow, but missed a superkick. Grizz leaped behind Michaels and hooked his feet under Michaels' arms, rolling him up for the three count. As Grizz celebrated by hugging and shaking the hands of his fans, the grin on his face lit up the room. The expression of pure joy on a rookies face when they step into the ring and know they did a great job is what makes indy wrestling great.
Results for the Prarie Wrestling Alliance's "Night of Champions."
1. Mr. Grizz pinned "Superstar" JD Michaels.
2. Ricky Rage defeated Pete Wilson to win the vacant PWA Cruiserweight Title.
3. PWA Champion Chris Steele defeated Tex Gaines.
4. Iron Man Match for the PWA Tag Team Titles

The Tumbling Animals are based on simple geometric forms - cut in the shape of animals. The Tumbling Animals are suitable as children's furniture but are designed for creative play.
bObles creates children's furniture with a simple and creative design shaped in a way that makes you eager to use it. The name "Tumbling Animals" covers exactly what to do with them - the children can tumble and gain some bodily experience, which can serve as the foundation for further development.
They appeal to something human inside us as they look like animals - but they can easily represent whatever the child wishes during play. The material is firm but still soft and it is also user friendly as it is easy to clean - wipe over using a wet cloth.
Developmental learning works the best when you play it. How you can avoid it with the Tumbling Animals?
The Fish are available in two sizes, and they can be stacked. The low one is for the child who has just learned to sit. The big one is for the older child, and once you stack them, they fit teenagers and grown-ups. It is nice to have an example of each animal, because the child grows along with them, and as a result they can be used over a long period of time. You can roll the animal to one another, or roll and chase it. The 6-layer Fish has a size that enables the child to sit on it while in movement, which enhance not only the balance but also the joint senses. Children can lie across them and have the backside of their bodies strengthenend, and children can exercise their arms through the pressure from their own body weight.
� made of firm EVA foam with a soft surface
� very easy to wipe clean with wet cloth
� makes no noise
� does not damage flooring or furniture
� perfect for an obstacle course
� free of toxins or phthalates
� supports up to 350 lbs
� enables a child to tumble, roll, balance, seesaw, rock, jump and promotes motor development
� 3 layer fish measures 4.7w x 11.8 inches in diameter
� suitable for ages 6 months +
Usually ships in 1-2 weeks

Hunt, produced by Shea & Associates for the International Fund for Animal Welfare.
The Canadian seal hunt is back, and so are the protesters. Hunt, produced by political ad maker Mike Shea for the International Fund for Animal Welfare, is part of an unprecedented effort to increase public awareness before spring and the next hunting season. Polls show that once informed of the facts, between 80 percent and 90 percent of Canadians and Americans oppose the killing. Hunt, hopes its makers, will give its viewers those facts and rouse them to action.
The spot opens with a moist-eyed white seal pup on the ice. "Think this little fellow is safe?" asks the narrator, the camera zooming to a close-up of the animal's eye, in which a club-brandishing hunter is now silhouetted. As the pup attempts futilely to escape, we are given the numbers. Up to half a million seals, most of them pups under a year old, were killed by commercial hunters in Canada last year (a key study by economist Clive Southey offered a lower figure–269,000–that has been contested).
A Canadian flag dissolves on a bloody ice field as the sealer drags the pup away. The image of the government's complicity is a powerful one: Southey's study claims that the hunt adds little value, especially once government subsidies (on which Canadian taxpayers spent $3.4 million just in 1996) are subtracted. The end does not justify the means, says the spot, cutting first to a Toronto Globe and Mail headline–"Sealers convicted for cruel slaughter"–and then to a shot of an abandoned carcass. The IFAW has videotaped atrocities, and while we are not made to witness a skinning or an impaling, we hear the pup crying and see hooks waving. (And though the spot never really tells us that these crimes are ignored by the authorities, there have been reports to that effect.)
The seals are victims not of research or of subsistence hunting, says Hunt, but of an unsubstantiated claim that their penises increase human potency ("totally inexcusable" in "what is supposed to be an enlightened age," actor William Shatner, one of a growing cast of luminaries who have signed on to the IFAW cause, has been quoted as saying). We see a shot of a bustling Asian market, followed by one of a seal group on the ice. (The juxtaposition is familiar enough, and reaches for the emotional energy of other battles between environmentalists and apparently impervious consumers. But the portrayal of the transaction in question is interesting: The clerk is Asian, but the customer is white.)
The spot ends with the image of a white-coat pup, a phone number, and an explicit exhortation. The animal can't stop this, but you can. The 1996 numbers represent a fivefold increase over previous annual takes, which had plateaued at 55,000 after mass international protest drove them down in the early 1970s. Until 1995, that is. Dwindling cod populations in the waters off Newfoundland inspired the federal Department of Fisheries and Oceans to raise annual hunt quotas on harp and hooded seals to 275,000. Echoing the classical political appeal to "speak for those who have no voice,"Hunt hopes your conscience will win the day.

Safe Haven Icons
Learn how Norwex makes your home a Safe Haven
There's nothing quite like an absorbent sponge for wiping up spills and cleaning up wet messes. However, most sponges are not the best for removing stubborn, stuck-on dirt and grime.
The dual-sided, multipurpose EnviroSponge is your go-to tool
for quickly wiping up spills and easily tackling even the most stubborn sticky messes without scratching. The Norwex EnviroCloth® microfiber with BacLock®* on one side and special scrubby microfiber on the other ensure that kitchen messes are handled quickly and easily—without harmful chemicals!
• The EnviroCloth side can be used wet or dry to quickly absorb liquid spills and bring surfaces to a high shine.
• Dampen first, then use the scrubby side to remove stuck-on, burnt-on stains and spills. Use the EnviroCloth side to wipe down countertops, refrigerator shelves and more.
• When using on easily scratched surfaces such as brushed stainless steel, first test Norwex Microfiber on an inconspicuous spot.
• Not for use on anti-glare surfaces.
Caring for EnviroSponges
• Between uses, squeeze or wring out excess moisture and allow to air dry.
• Slightly dirty EnviroSponges can be washed with Norwex Dishwashing Liquid under warm running water and used again before laundering. Rinse thoroughly after washing and air or machine dry.
• EnviroSponges that have been used heavily should be laundered using a Norwex laundry detergent, which contains no fillers, after each use.

GP writer Marshall Henderson reviews Ragnarok Odyssey on PS Vita.
I almost bought this the other day, then decided to go back to Persona 4 Golden. I wish more RPGs would come to the Vita. There's plenty of great PSP (and PSOne) games, but it'd be nice to have some new experiences (or excellently ported ones, like P4G).
never played any of the Monster Hunter games, but i went ahead and bought this game, and all i say is i LOVE this game. i love the challenge it has too.
to me this game is a solid 9.
I love this game, I have been slacking on playing games altogether lately.. not much time but I still need to beat this game especially before I start investing time into Soul Sacrifice once that comes out.
Crosses fingers for NA demo soon..
I spent so much time helping others in RO get by but I didn't mind at all, I had a blast doing it. I could play the same mission over and over and it's always so much fun with people.
The reviews to me do it no justice but that isn't surprising with Vita games. People complain about things like camera angles and stuff but I seriously have never once had any trouble playing this game. I was actually shocked at how easy it was to pick up and how immersive it felt because of how well everything worked.
Knowing they even delayed the release to work out kinks making sure it worked as good as it could shows commitment. I appreciate that and I thoroughly enjoy this game.
I recommend it to anyone who loves MMO's or just hunting monsters with friends. The great thing about this game is it's quick, you never feel tied down for hours or feel like you can't put your Vita down. Which is a good thing.
I could go on about this game but I think that is enough, doubt anyone will read all this anyway.
Waiting for mh4. Gonna play through it with my bro. Don't have time for a hundred hour time sink unless its amazing ala persona 4.

Question for the Money Doctors
Question submitted on Sep 26, 2011.
QuestionLooking to purchase a house at the start of the new year. I live and work in the Des Moines Iowa area so it will have to be in that area. I was pre-approved for 160k and am looking for a house right around that range. I know this is a great time to buy as the housing market is in the dumps and rates are at an all time low. I am saving for my down payment which will need to be 3.5% with a 30 year fixed FHA loan. I have done alot of research on first time home buying but I am curious if there are any tax breaks or other options I should consider when searching for the right house? Any feedback you provide me will be greatly appreciated.
Not knowing your marital status, living situation or tax bracket, let's assume that you are currently taking the standard deduction on your tax returns and rent your current residence. Further, after purchasing the home, you will be able to itemize your deductions beginning in 2012, and not be subject to Alternative Minimum Tax (AMT).
The current available deductions are for the interest portion of the mortgage and the property taxes you pay on your home. One thing to watch out for is to make sure the FHA mortgage does not have a pre-payment penalty in the event you want to refinance or move in the the future. Let's say your 3.5% down payment covers your closing costs for the property. A mortgage for $160k at 4% for 30 years would have a payment of ~$764/month and is primarily interest in the early years. So you would be able to deduct over $6k per year as mortgage interest on your tax return. Also, your property taxes that would be around $3k per year on an assessment of $160k would also be able to be deducted. If you are in a combined 25% Federal and Iowa tax bracket, your net after tax cost of the mortgage and taxes would be about $10k annually. Add on a few hundred $ per year for homeowners insurance and you can compare this with renting. I.e. $850-875/mo would be the rent payment equivalent using this example.
Payments:(($764 * 12) + 3000) = $12,168. Deductions - income tax savings ((6k + 3k) * 25%) = $2,250. Net after tax cost of mortgage and property tax payments ($12,168 - $2,250 = $9,918)
Best wishes as you go through the search process for your new home.

First up, those of you who listened to my radio debut might want to know that my wife, Jen, will be appearing on tomorrow's edition of Jen's Dish, on WNRI radio. Listen live at wnri.com.
Second, having just returned from Indiana (for family) and NYC (for the Beefeater 24 TDN), I'm off again, this time with Jen, to see her family.
Finally, and this is directed at you who are going to Tales of the Cocktail this year. (We're still working on getting me there, but it's looking gloomy.) The Hotel Monteleone, which hosts Tales, is sponsoring a cocktail contest. Here's what the Monteleone has to say about it:
The Hotel Monteleone is celebrating the 60th anniversary of the Carousel Bar on May 21, 2009. From 1949 until about the late 60's or 70's there was a drink on the specialty drink menu called the Monteleone Cocktail. Unfortunately, we have no idea what the exact recipe or ingredients were. The Hotel Monteleone is hosting an online contest to accept drink recipe nominations for a new official Monteleone Cocktail. The recipes will be judged by VIPs who will be at the Carousel anniversary celebration on May 21. There are no requirements on types of liquor or style of drink, but all drink entries must be received by May 18, so that the ingredients may be acquired and drinks prepared at the May 21 event. Participating bloggers should post their entries online, and all participants should e-mail their drink recipes, along with their name, address and phone number, to email@example.com. The winning entry will become the new official Monteleone Cocktail, and the winner will receive four free nights at the Hotel Monteleone during Tales of the Cocktail 2009.
Best of luck to any of you who choose to participate. I might try to create the killer drink myself, since it's probably the only chance I have of making it down this year.

We got up early yesterday, finished emptying the living and dining areas of furniture, boxed up the cats, and drove them to the vet's office. It wasn't much fun. Four kitties can make an awful racket when enclosed in a moving vehicle. Poor things. We were going to pick them up today but since we have to clean up the wood dust, we thought it best to leave them another day.
After dropping off the cats at the vet, we went to breakfast. I wanted to go to Key's but there wasn't really one near by so we settled on IHop. It wasn't a bad breakfast. I had a mushroom, swiss, spinach, tomato omelet while Bob had a ham and cheese omelet. We spent some time talking about life, money, the holidays, etc. and had a nice time lingering over coffee. After that, we went to Target to look for a couple of household items. Of course we left with more than our list showed we needed but that's always the way at Target. After Target we went to the wild bird store to exchange some suet. I had purchased some hot pepper suet because I was told the birds like it but the squirrels leave it alone. However, it seemed no one liked it. It just sat in our suet feeder getting old and yucky. I exchanged the red pepper suet for fruit and nut suet and that should make our downy woodpecker friends very happy.
We were told that the flooring guys were coming after 9am and should only take 3 to 4 hours. At this point it was about 11:30 and we still needed to kill a couple of hours. We did the only logical thing and saw a movie. Bob likes action and I like attractive men so we went to see the new James Bond movie. It was FULL of action and not as full of Daniel Craig as I would have liked. Still, it was an OK way to spend a couple of hours.
When we got back to our apartment building, the head maintenance man met us in the garage. He said the floor guys weren't done yet but that we could go upstairs to check it out. So we did. They had ripped out all the old carpet and were laying the under floor. Only one little strip of hallway had been finished with the wood floor. That was disappointing since we didn't have anything else to do to keep us busy and out of the way. Bob suggested he just go hang out at the gas station and I could go to school and work on any projects I had. That seemed logical so that's what we did.
Bob called me at school at nearly 7pm and told me the flooring guys were done and he was in the apartment but that the quarter round still had to be laid and the dust had to be cleaned up. When I got home I marvelled at the new floor. It was beautiful. Dusty, but really amazing. We couldn't begin cleaning up or moving things back in to the main living area until the quarter rounds were put in so we ended up going to bed. It was weird being there without the cats and Bob said it had been really lonely while I was at school. Also weird was how shoddy and dingy the walls now appeared. Huh. The crappy, gross carpet must have diverted my attention from the dirty, spotty walls. Nice.
This morning the maintenance men came and installed the quarter rounds but didn't clean up. I asked about that and they kind of inferred it was up to us to clean up. I said that didn't seem fair since we hadn't been told to put things away or cover anything with plastic sheeting. If we had been told, we would have done that. I said that every surface of everything in our apartment was now covered in dust and it was only just in April when everything had been cleaned after the fire. They said they would tell the office manager but she would have to get back to me.
I started cleaning. The job overwhelmed me. I looked at everything we owned and wondered how and when I would ever be done cleaning it. I had wash everything...the cupboards, the appliances, the containers and jars, the dishes that were left out, the sugar bowl, salt and pepper shakers, the cats food/water bowls, the photographs, paintings, and artwork that hung on our walls. I had to create a laundry pile for anything linen that could be washed. Our sofas had to be vacuumed over and over to remove the fine dust that had settled on them. I looked at the overwhelming task before me and did what any woman with a pioneer spirit would do. I cried. Tears streamed down my cheeks as I washed the counters. Snot spilled onto the freshly washed microwave. My shoulders shook with sobs as I wiped down the aquarium and fish food. I knew I was crying out of frustration and that it would be over and I'd be fine. Bob did not see it that way.
When Bob came in the apartment, he saw me crying and immediately went back out to talk to the maintenance guys. He came back and told me to stop what I was doing, go to the bedroom, pick up a book and relax. I had a hard time doing it but eventually the futility of the job I was doing overcame me and I did as he asked. He said he would work hard while I was at school and work study today to get someone or lots of someones to come and clean our apartment. He promised that it would be at least 75-80 % clean by the time I got home tonight. I am skeptical, but he was adamant, so I left him and our dusty apartment and went to school.
I have no idea how things are going at our home. I only hope Bob is true to his word and able to get the help he promised. Otherwise I just may have to pack up and move. It seems moving would be an easier task at this point than completely cleaning fine wood dust from all our possessions. We'll see. Stay tuned.

Reba McEntire to Star in New TV Series, 'Malibu Country'
Reba McEntire struck sitcom gold with her first series, the sensibly titled 'Reba,' which ran on the WB and CW networks from 2001-2007. She's concentrated on her music career since 'Reba' left the air, releasing a trio of bestselling albums — including her most recent effort, 2010′s 'All the Women I Am' — and returning to the road for successful tours.
Viewers who still mourn the loss of 'Reba' can take comfort, however because Reba has announced that she hopes to return to the small screen as the star and executive producer of an ABC series titled 'Malibu Country.'
"I know you've all been asking, and I can confirm that the rumors are true," McEntire said. "We had our meeting yesterday with the folks at ABC, and we now have a pilot with ABC! That means we will shoot the pilot next April, and if everything goes like we hope it will, we'll be shooting next August! Wooohooooo! I'm so excited about doing another TV sitcom! I miss the 'Reba' show so much so it will be great to get back into the TV world again!"
As she did with 'Reba,' McEntire will play a single mom in 'Malibu Country,' which revolves around the adventures of a divorcee who attempts to resurrect her singing career after moving her three kids from Nashville to Malibu.

Subaru Impreza
New from the ground up, Subaru's fifth generation Impreza hatch smartens up its act but sticks with the brand's unique formula of Symmetrical All-Wheel Drive paired to a Boxer engine. Jonathan Crouch weighs up its chances.
Ten Second Review
The fifth generation version of Subaru's Impreza brings four wheel drive traction within the affordable reach of family buyers who neither want or need any kind of SUV. It's a conventional Focus-sized family hatch with very unconventional underpinnings, the Symmetrical AWD system paired to uniquely-configured 1.6 and 2.0-litre petrol Boxer engines. Not a package likely to suit everyone but perfect perhaps for those in search of something that's just that little bit different in this segment.
As you can see, this isn't an SUV. It's not even one of those trendy Crossover models you see so often these days, cars that seem to promise 4WD capability but usually don't deliver it. No, this is instead a means of affordable family transport that delivers everything you need - and nothing you don't. Like its predecessors, the fifth generation version of Subaru's Impreza is the only sensibly-priced C-segment model that delivers its power to all four wheels yet, on paper at least, there seem to be few compromises to make for that kind of all-weather capability.
It's not overly expensive, it's tough and durable and, provided you're happy with a five-door hatchback bodystyle, it's just as practical as that comparably-sized ordinary 2WD Focus, Astra or Golf you might have been thinking about. True, there's no diesel engine option and the 1.6 and 2.0-litre petrol units you do get don't trouble the class front runners in terms of fuel consumption or cleanliness. Still, the running costs are affordable and you get a lot of extra standard features that you'd have to pay more money for if you went for the kind of cars I just mentioned. So, does it all add up? That's what we're here to find out.
Driving Experience
If for you, the idea of a 'Subaru Impreza' conjures up images of World Rally Championships, Sonic Blue paint, gold wheels and big spoilers, then you're probably no longer target market for this car. What does remain here though, are two genuine Impreza reliables, namely all-wheel drive and the flat-four 'Boxer' powerplants that I'll start by telling you about. In this case, given that there are no diesels this time round, we're talking of a 114PS 1.6-litre petrol unit or a 156PS 2.0-litre powerplant. As before, Subaru's 'Lineartronic' CVT automatic transmission is optional.
Onto this car's other more important unique attribute, its 'Symmetrical AWD system' a package the brand has been perfecting since 1972. No other family hatchback in this class offers 4x4 traction and it's even a very rare feature to find in affordable compact Crossover models. Even better, this is a 'proper' four-wheel drive layout - by which I mean a set-up that constantly shunts power to each wheel, rather than, as with cheaper systems, simply reacting when the front wheels slip. As for handling, well Subaru claims the new chassis increases body rigidity by as much as 70% in comparison to the previous model. The centre of gravity has been lowered by 5mm, too, which the brand claims will boost handling, steering and responsiveness.
Design and Build
There's nothing particularly exciting about the MK5 model Impreza's silhouette. While it is undoubtedly sleeker than before, it's still no head turner. In fact, it looks much like a version of the brand's XV crossover that's been treated to a set of lowering springs. That's no surprise, as the MK2 model XV donates its new 'Global Platform' to this car. This fifth generation Impreza is slightly larger than its slow-selling predecessor and this time round is 10mm lower, 35mm wider and has a 25mm longer wheelbase.
Inside, the cabin's a big improvement on the previous rather plasticky offering, it's immediately obvious that the quality of soft touch plastics and finishes have been improved across the interior, without losing the functionality and hard-wearing features that Subaru customers like. A much cleaner dashboard layout features a pair of screens in the middle of the console, the bigger eight inch one displaying the navigation and infotainment controls and featuring Subaru's 'STARLINK' multimedia system. A multi-function display sits on top of the dashboard, too. Maximum luggage capacity has also increased by 10 litres by having a 100mm wider boot opening and the depth of the boot is also longer by 41mm.
Market and Model
Expect pricing pitched towards the mid to upper end of the Focus-class family hatchback sector. That means you'll be looking at list figures pitched in the £20,000 to £25,000 bracket for the single five-door hatch bodyshape on offer. Make sure you factor in the fact that the asking figures include standard four wheel drive before comparing to obvious segment rivals. Standard is an eight-inch touchscreen 'Starlink' infotainment system with Apple CarPlay and Android Auto connections and a DAB radio. It also features connected car capabilities including emergency assistance, remote car functions and servicing updates, similar to Vauxhall's OnStar service.
Also standard is Subaru's 'EyeSight' safety system which includes pre-collision braking and throttle management, adaptive cruise control, lane departure warning and lane keep assist technologies. Plus blind spot detection, lane change assist and rear cross traffic alert will all also be available as part of the Subaru Rear Vehicle Detection System suite of driver assists.
Cost of Ownership
You don't fit 4WD to any compact family hatchback - especially a petrol-powered one - and then expect class-leading running costs. It just can't happen. Having said that, this Impreza isn't as far off the class pace as you might fear in this respect, aided by a range of engineering improvements made to its Boxer engines and a clever Active valve Control System that cuts engine friction to the minimum. There's also a standard Auto Start-Stop system that cuts that Euro6-generation powerplant when you don't need it, stuck in traffic or waiting at the lights. Anyway, let's get down to the figures and see how close this 4WD car can get to its less capable 2WD rivals in the C-segment. Specifically, for the manual model, we're talking 44.1mpg on the combined cycle and 147g/km of CO2.
Well we like the multi-function display on the dash which delivers self-check maintenance alerts and enables you to track your fuel efficiency, even allowing you to compare the frugality you've achieved on different trips. More pointlessly, it records how long the stop/start set-up has been active in any given journey. You get the peace of mind of a comprehensive five year 100,000-mile warranty, but you're unlikely to ever need it.
For its likely buyers, they'd prefer this car to be a well-kept secret, a supremely sensible choice in a country where rain is forecast on over 160 days each year. So what if it's a non-conformist choice with a cabin that fights the fashionable trends and a distinctive Boxer engine spinning away beneath the bonnet? What matters is that ultimately, there's nothing else quite like it.
CAR: Subaru Impreza
PRICE: £24,000 - £25,010 on the road
CO2 EMISSIONS: 145-152g/km
PERFORMANCE: [1.6] Max Speed 112mph / 0-60mph 12.4s
FUEL CONSUMPTION: [1.6] (combined) 44.1mpg
STANDARD SAFETY FEATURES: front, side and curtain airbags / ABS / EBD / VDC
WILL IT FIT IN YOUR GARAGE?: Length/Width/Height 4460/1775/1480mm

I liked this book because she couldn't sleep and sometimes that happens to me too. I liked when she looked under the bed and saw bunny slippers because I have bunny slippers too.
This story reminds me of a dream I had about moving toys being nice to me.
I recommend this book to Ms. Finucane to read to our class and our class will like it.
