Nissan 370z Event Coverage
370Z Rally Across America, presented by Nissan
For the launch of the 2010 Nissan 370Z, Nissan broke with tradition and decided to bring this car to the masses. In a long-awaited nod to enthusiasts nationwide, the car would be taken to the people, by the people… The folks who love Nissan's would be presenting the car to more people who love Nissans. Is this the start of a real enthusiast relationship within the company? Let's hope so!
Great idea, in theory…But how to implement it? A multi-city US Tour, with a full staff and crew, for two vehicles, support trucks, equipment, travel arrangements, hotels, flights… a logistical nightmare, right? Wrong. Nissan selected the team that brings you the Hot Import Nights Tour to head up the Rally. These guys know how to prepare for events, and they brought their A-game on short notice.
Nissan determined that certain "super-enthusiasts" across the country should participate in the Rally by offering them a chance to drive the 370Z throughout the entire tour. From professional Nissan race drivers to car builders to forum owners to collectors to aftermarket parts gurus, an all-star team of Nissan freaks was assembled. Again, a last-minute logistical nightmare was made completely manageable and smooth by the crew from HIN.
Yours truly was fortunate enough to get a call to participate, and of course I jumped at the chance. Part of the deal was getting the word out about the Phoenix-area stop on the tour, and plans were made. I'd be handling the Phoenix-to-Houston leg of the journey, a three-day adventure that had me excited as a kid at Christmas time.
The days prior to the arrival of the Z in Phoenix brought us some of the most torrential downpours Phoenix has seen in a year… We all had concerns about the weather holding us hostage, but on Friday morning, we were greeted with rainbows, sunny skies, and the anticipation of a new sports car from our friends at Nissan.
Phoenix Westgate was the venue for the event, and the local Z owners showed up in force. Desert Z Association and the crew from AZ350Z.com pulled out all the stops, with some owners bringing out more than one car. Every generation of Z-car was represented, from an early-production S30 all the way up to a 2008 350Z that was already well-modded. A lone 311 Roadster, a new GTR, some Nissan trucks and a few Infiniti G35's rounded out the field. Eager anticipation turned to awe as the stars of the show were unveiled. For the next few hours, enthusiasts and the public were treated to 370Z Production Numbers Two and Three… a Monterey Blue base model with Sport Package, and a Chicane Yellow 370Z, fully optioned-out. Both cars featured Nissan's 6-speed manual transmission with Sport Mode and both were equipped with the Rays forged alloy wheels. Spectators were free to climb in and explore the interior, and the HIN crew raffled off some great Nissan-themed prizes to the lucky crowd while a DJ provided the background beats. Superior Racing Development was on hand with their mobile dyno, but a mechanical glitch prevented any bragging rights from being secured at the event. No matter, as we were all there to appreciate the latest heir to the throne of Z-car tradition.
The next day would begin our travels, and my co-pilot for the trip was none other than Gregg Rogers, past-President of Sin City Z and 2009 President of Desert Z Association. Gregg owns a gorgeous, flawless droptop Z32 and a well-kept S30, and has been a Z fanatic since they debuted in America. He knows anyone and everyone involved in the Z community, and was an awesome traveling companion for this journey. Gregg and I selected the Monterey Blue base-model Z, and Marty Huynh (builder of what could be the world's most awesome G35 Coupe) would be manning the Chicane Yellow sister car.
Prior to leaving Phoenix, we decided it would be a great opportunity to capture a memento from this occasion and replicate another historic journey from nearly 40 years prior. See, in October of 1969, Datsun brought a pair of pre-production 240Z cars into the Phoenix area for testing. Their trip is immortalized in a photograph taken in downtown Phoenix, in front of the old Phoenix Greyhound Park. The picture shows the two Z test cars, with an early 510 chase vehicle, and Datsun personnel consulting a map during their trip through the Valley. Well, here we were, 40 years later, on the same corner, with three modern versions: Two 370Z's and a new Maxima. We positioned the cars just as they were 40 years prior, staged the photos, and captured the moment. I thought a lot about that photo during our journey, and wondered if they had as much fun as we were going to? Then, the Datsun brand was still quite "foreign" to Americans, and I'm sure they felt like strangers in a strange land.Did they comprehend the history they were making?Could they have known the historical impact that this car would have on the American automotive landscape? The influence their car would have on sports car design and engineering? The vast numbers of Z-car aficionados that their efforts would spawn? I mulled over the differences and progress that had transpired in the past four decades and hoped that those guys, wherever they are now, were proud of what we were doing and how far we'd come.
Getting out of Phoenix and heading east towards Tucson, Gregg coordinated an impromptu stop at a truck stop just south of Tucson with the local Z-car chapter. A perfectly-timed stop, we were welcomed by 20-something Z enthusiasts and curious onlookers who wondered what the hubbub was all about. Spending time with these guys made me realize how lucky we were to be participating in this event. A quick photo session, some Q & A about the new Z, and we were back on the road – We had a chase vehicle to keep up with!
Let me go on record by saying we're the very first people to get a speeding ticket in a 370Z. A dubious distinction, but an honor nonetheless. One of New Mexico's finest nabbed us just outside of Deming doing 91 in a 75 zone. Even at that pace, we felt as if we were crawling along… This car BEGS to stretch its legs and be "let out to play", and as we left our unscheduled meeting with the long arm of the law, we wondered if we'd be stuck at pedestrian speeds for the duration of the trip.
Our lesson unlearned, we soon got a chance to "unleash the beast" just outside Lordsburg. Up ahead, we noticed a distinctive shape in the fast lane. That shape turned out to be an impressive-looking G37 Coupe. As we pulled alongside at no-no speeds, the driver waved and shot off ahead. Ah, temptation… This might be worth a couple points on our license. As the needle spun clockwise, we reeled in the G37 and enjoyed the open freeway for a while, three 3.7-liter Nissan engines hurtling us down the freeway. Another rest stop brought us into contact with our temporary wingman – Who happened to be an incredibly beautiful woman. Stuttering and stammering, all I learned was that she set the car up herself, she was just "out for a drive", and that she was from Sierra Vista – So, Miss Infiniti, if you're reading this, thanks for the dance, and shoot me an email! Note to self: ALWAYS keep a business card in your pocket, not locked in the Z across the parking lot, for occasions such as this. Arrrgh!!!!
Crossing through some of the smaller towns in west Texas, absorbed in the awesomeness of the Z, we lost track of one very important parameter of interstate travel: Miles covered vs. fuel remaining. With a stretch of over 100 miles between any thing remotely resembling a gas station, we sensed panic. Were we ALSO going to be the first people to run out of gas in a 370Z? No way, we'll make it. With the range meter reading 35 miles to go, and the next town 51 miles away, I had faith in the fuel economy of the Z. Easing up on the throttle, we were rewarded with a blank "miles to go" readout just a couple minute later, while still 30 miles from town. Fear? Hell yes. Who's going to call the chase truck? Who was supposed to remember to gas up? Uh-oh. We were in trouble.
Almost out of gas, we coasted into the teeming metropolis of Roosevelt, TX. A town whose population doubled at our arrival,there was one lone gas station. As Gregg wandered in to see if the ancient gas pumps even had fuel, I clutched the Z keys and told him "If I hear banjo music, I'm getting the hell outta here." It was there we met 'Wanda' at the Simon Brothers Mercantile and General Store.
Gregg :"Do you folks happen to have any 'Premium' fuel?"
Wanda: "No sir, but we do got some 'High-Test' in the right-hand pumper!"
Good enough for us – Time to fill it up. A couple locals popped out of the back of the store to gawk at the newfangled machinery, and we're pretty sure they hadn't even seen many 350Z's around these parts, much less a 2010 Z. Perusing the glory of the facility, every manner of dead, stuffed critter you can find in Texas was hanging on the walls… and available for sale. Need horseshoes? Wanda's got 'em, in every size. Need a set of antlers?Ammunition? Bait? A fishing license? Got those too. In fact, we learned that this building
had been around for over 150 years, that Teddy Roosevelt and his Rough Riders used to stop in for their gear on hunting / fishing excursions, and were gently admonished that the town was pronounced 'Rooooosvelt', not 'Row-sevelt'. Duly noted and committed to memory, we'll never mispronounce that again. We were invited to stay for lunch, but the road was calling. Wanda warned us of every speed trap between Roosevelt and San Antonio, and wished us well as we hot-footed it out of there. Wanda, thanks for the history lesson – We'll be seeing you again.
Interestingly, we thought for sure we'd collect a caravan of interested 350Z drivers during our journey. Yet, we were amazed that we only saw THREE 350Z's on the road between Phoenix and San Antonio – and 2 of them were Roadsters. For a car that's so prevalent, we thought it mighty strange that we saw so few on the freeway.
A little more about our accommodations for the trip:The Z's full-sweep gauges perform their dance at startup and hint at what you're about to experience. The tach is large, and centrally-mounted, where it should be. Triple binnacles house the clock, ammeter and oil temperature gauges atop the center of the dash, and they're shrouded for easy visibility in any lighting. There's some really well-designed angling to the top of the dash to prevent glare.The digital fuel gauge / trip meter combo looks terribly out-of-place and mismatched with the rest of the cluster, but there's also an analog fuel gauge present.
Effortless acceleration makes it difficult to maintain any sense of decorum or respect for local ordinances, and we commented often that this car begs to be unleashed and allowed to run free. The Sport Mode manual transmission with Synchro-Rev Matching blips the throttle much more deftly between shifts than any expert driver – eliminating the need for heel-toe downshifts.
Flawless shifting is the name of the game here – A short-throw shifter without the mechanical notchiness that is so prevalent in many "performance" cars has been replaced. Realistically, that harsh action is unnecessary, and the new Z has a silky-smooth feel to its shift action. A novice manual driver could easily learn the "black art" of rowing their own gears in this car.
We averaged 22.1 mpg over our portion of the trip – Not bad considering our frequent forays into the wrong side of the speedometer.
Torque, although only up a few lb-ft from the previous generation, seems much more prevalent. Dropping the hammer in 5th or even 6th at normal highway speeds results in a seamless, clean advancement to felony velocities without bogging – The 370 is perfectly content to settle into 5th gear across a wide range of speeds. After saying it to each other over a dozen times, we simply smiled when rolling into the throttle in 6th gear – It's absolutely the most fun you can have on the right side of the shift pattern. I'd say this is the 370Z's most impressive trait. Love it.
Audiophiles will want to select the Touring Package to ensure they get the most out of the factory sound system. Enough said. If you care that much about the sound quality of the stereo, you're probably not in the 370Z target market anyway.
Engine sounds are much tamer than the previous generation, with much of the signature VQ note absent when revving the engine in neutral. However, under load, the familiar note returns, albeit with a more refined tone.
This car is significantly lighter than the Z33 it replaces – Door, roof and hatch are all aluminum, and the difference is notable. Almost universally, the comments elicited from passers-by were the same: It looks so much better in person than in pictures. The "fangs" in the front fascia really "work" in person. The front end treatment is really aggressive, and looks absolutely menacing in the rear-view mirror. The styling cues reminiscent of the early Z-cars are much more apparent in person. The forged Ray's 19″ alloy wheels drew loads of positive praise. The View over the hood reminds you that this car means business… This is no Honda Civic, and the hood rises up slightly above the cowl – Choose the color of your 370Z wisely, because you'll be seeing that tone every time you settle in for a drive. As if the hood weren't reminder enough, the rear fenders are incredibly prominent, and invade the side-view mirrors with each rearward glance.
Finding our way into San Antonio for the evening, we compared notes with Marty and found that we were both in a agreement in our assessment of the car. A good night's rest was welcome, and the HIN crew did it in style, putting us up at the Hilton for the night. The next day would be a long one, and we needed all the rest we could get.
Comfort? Hell yes. No 'car-butt' here, even after 8 hours in the saddle. Both Gregg and I were equally comfortable in the 370's redesigned seats, and we agreed that the base-model interior is plenty well-appointed. I'd pass on the leather interior and opt for the base, as it's really, really nice. Head room is sufficient for a helmeted driver of 6'2″ or more, and I was ecstatic to note the lack of sunroof in either car. Finally, maybe we can bury that horrible contraption from the 80's for good!
Nissan's literature claims a 0-60 time of just under 5 seconds and a top speed of 150mph (drag-limited). We guessed this to be conservative. We're convinced we're right, as our testing reveals there's plenty of pedal remaining at 130+. The Z feels rock-solid all the way up the gauge, and backing down from brief jaunts to double the posted limit left us feeling as if we were plodding along. Again, this car feels like it's begging to play. Not wanting to risk a week in some backwoods Texas jail, we opted to 'call it good' and save any more top-end testing for a later date and a controlled track environment.
Thrumming and boomy resonance from the tires over freeway expansion joints and rough pavement is, at times, almost overwhelming. Whether it's a function of the standard-issue Bridgestones, or a reduction in sound deadening, we can't be sure. Transitioning onto smooth concrete or freshly-laid blacktop, it goes away, and the cabin is quite comfortable. But our first order of business in buying a new 370Z would be to requisition some high-performance summer radials to cut back on the sonic assault. Wind noise is remarkably minimal, even with the large side-view mirrors. Brilliantly-done, Nissan!
Sunday evening delivered us into San Antonio with empty stomachs and a need for a break, so we consulted the locals and found a phenomenal Mexican restaurant to dine at. We got to experience the 370Z at night coming into Houston, and certainly appreciate the lighting from the HID projectors. No annoying sharp cutoff, perfectly-aimed, and sufficiently bright that no high-beams are needed, even on some of the dark back roads we encountered.
Although our final destination was only a couple hours away, it arrived all too soon.This is a car we could definitely own, and its $30K price tag is a clear bargain considering the total package. We'll be testing the 7-speed automatic at a later date, and I'm looking forward to getting some track time in a 370 once it's made available to the public in a few months.
If you haven't already made it out to see the new Z, there's a few tour stops remaining, and you can be kept apprised of the schedule at www.followthenissanz.com.Hope to see you there!
Special thanks to: Nissan North America, Z enthusiasts all over the country, the staff of Hot Import Nights, Desert Z Association, AZ350Z.com, Glosser.com, Hilton Hotels, Sparco, the staff at Westgate, the New Mexico Highway Patrol…

You are supposed to be standing at the intersection of the paths of Samekh and Peh. You are facing Tiphareth (the Sun), thus on your right hand is Netzach (Venus) on your left hand Hod (Mercury), and behind you Yesod (the Moon).
You take one step with the right heel in the hollow of the left foot towards Tiphareth and vibrate the Divine Name as given in the ritual. You then carry round the point of the wand towards Netzach, then take a step again (always recovering after each forward step so that you remain in the centre) and vibrating the Divine Name as before.
Continue the process facing Yesod and vibrating; then Hod, and vibrating; but carry the point of the Wand round to Tiphareth so as to complete the circle.
You are thus standing in a Column which is protected by your microcosmic invocation. The consequent result, being macrocosmic response, is that without any effort on your part the hexagram or sixfold star appears both above and below you. (Note the equilibration of 5 = 6). In this way you are completely shut off from the outer and Qliphotic parts of the universe.
Get well into your mind the realization of this Column with its surrounding pentagrams and its hexagrams above and below you. Continuous practice is essential if you are to perform this ritual as you should. It is particularly important not to slur any part of it; to visualize clearly and cleanly the forces invoked, with the exception of the Divine Being, who will not appear, in the ordinary course of events, for such slight cause.
You can figure out for yourself the forms of the angels, or rather archangels. For instance, Raphael, commencing with an "R" will have a head of solar glory and the Peh which follows shows that the rest of him is martial: the "AL" which concludes the name (in the case of most angelic beings) indicates that they wield the sword and the balance.
Note: The Student should also consult the annotated version of Crowley's poem "The Palace of the World," in "The Temple of the Holy Ghost" (Collected Works, Vol. I) which contains a poetic description of the spiritual aspect of the ritual. -Sb.


During this morning's group Rally obedience class at Paws in Motion, I decided to let Orso try out an A-frame that was off to one side of the training facility. For our followers who don't know what an A-frame is, it's the largest of the obstacles used in every competitive dog agility level, by all the agility organizations, as well as for K9 police training. It is also called a Scaling Wall.
Orso only has climbed an A-frame once, and it was as a very young pup in an obstacle course at a dog show. It was very small and nothing like this one, which I estimate is about 4 ½ feet tall. He loved it! He wasn't scared to do it at all! Orso has such an amazing temperament; he is so confident and willing to try new things! Below is a short video compilation of Orso going over the A-frame 5 times, enjoy!


Dog training can be overwhelming. However, by using the advice found here you will discover how to improve your relationship with your pet and build a stronger understanding of your animal's needs as well as yours.
There are several techniques to make crate training your dog easier. To get a hesitant dog enthusiastic about getting in a crate, put a tempting treat like a fresh chew toy inside and close it up while your dog is outside. They will see the toy inside the crate and will want in the crate to get it. When he finally goes into the crate to retrieve the toy, shower the dog with praise.
You need to reward your dog to be successful. Giving them treats at the proper time and with the proper amount is crucial. Your dog does not know why they are getting the reward unless you do it right after the positive behavior.
Keep your dog calm when you enter the room. It is okay to have play time, but when you enter a room your dog should be calm. When you enter the room, ignore excessive agitation on your dog's part. By ignoring the behavior, you will extinguish it.
Pick the proper size crate for your dog if you want to be able to effectively use the crate to train it. Do not forget that all puppies will grow up. Choose a crate which will be suitable for the puppy when he matures into an adult. Your dog should be able to make itself comfortable in a crate big enough for it to toss and turn.
Don't waste your money on expensive training products, such as shock collars. Most of the time these don't function as they should and can cost quite a bit of money. Plus, using shock collars could discourage your dog in having good behavior. In general, using such techniques produces negative effects.
As your dog progresses in training, you can provide more freedom. The key to a satisfying life for your dog is a balance of freedom and obedience. Be sure not to give them too much since this can counteract training efforts.
"Leave it" is a very important command that teaches your dog to drop whatever it is holding. This should be the first command you teach. This can help get your dog to stop chomping on your belongings and help keep them safe from hazardous materials.
The daily training sessions with your dog should be fun. Playful interaction strengthens the bond between you, and will have your dog striving even harder to please you during training. Training can be a fun experience, however, getting some enjoyment for yourself and the dog through play is a good thing.
After learning the techniques from this article, you and your dog can have a wonderful relationship. Use this information to have a great puppy!

KAMPALA – In its continued efforts to promote Uganda as Africa's premier tourist destination, the Uganda Tourism Board (UTB) will, within the next few days, participate in the New York Times Travel Show scheduled to take place this weekend from January 25-27, 2019 in New York, USA.
The Board will alongside Uganda's Market Destination Representative in North America (PHG Group) and 8 Uganda tour operators represent the country at the New York Times Travel Show which is considered the biggest travel show in North America. The show is expected to attract more than 550 exhibitors from over 170 destinations.
UTB is a statutory organization established in 1994 with the aim of improving Uganda's competitiveness as an international tourism destination.
UTB Chief Executive Officer Stephen Asiimwe said, Monday January 21, that the show is part of major outlined activities to showcase Uganda to travel enthusiasts in the American market and ensure that the number of Americans coming to Uganda increases. US is Uganda's biggest tourist source.
The delegation led by Asiimwe will engage travel agents and experts, airlines, embassies, and the media, among others, in a learning experience of Uganda's offerings.
"The number of tourists from the United States to Uganda has been on the rise with a 6.6% increment registered from 2016 to 2017. This is expected to increase in the coming years with funds concealed in aggressive marketing initiatives," Asiimwe explained.
Available statistics indicate that there has been a spike in the number of tourists visiting Uganda. The year 2017 saw a record 1.4 million tourist arrivals to Uganda. This was a 6% increase from 2016.
Currently tourism is Uganda's largest foreign exchange earner contributing 23% export income and 10% to Gross Domestic Product. The industry fetches more than $1.4b (UGX5.1 trillion) annually and is projected to earn about $2.4b (UGX10 trillion) by 2020.


And he doesn't even miss a beat.
Seventeen-year-old Jack Thomas has been through a lot more than your typical teenager.
The teen was just about to start Grade 12 this year when he lost part of his right arm in a conveyor belt accident at work. As an avid drummer who plays for a band, the loss was absolutely devastating.
To Thomas, that meant getting back behind a drum set. Fortunately, he had already been a huge fan of one-armed drummer Rick Allen of Def Leppard. As a result, the Port Coquitlam teen had actually practiced the art of one-armed drumming before the accident even occurred. Now, with the help of a special drum kit, Thomas hasn't even missed a beat.
His classmates have been so blown away by Thomas' progress, that they organized a benefit concert that was held last night, with Juno-Award-nominated Vancouver band Hey Ocean putting on the headlining act.
You can check out some of Thomas' skills in the video above.

Power Wagon Registry FAQ
Are the wheels/rims made by Alcoa
Defective tires TSB
Greasing Front Drive Shaft
How many PWs were produced for each model year (MY)
Locker Bypass
Sequential numbering
Slow lockers
Various magazines who wrote articles about the Power Wagons stated that the wheels were made by Alcoa. We can only assume that this was part of the press release information provided by Dodge. I have been unable to verify this fact directly as Chrysler refuses to comment on it, and even Alcoa has failed to respond to e-mail from me.
However, we do know Alcoa made some one-off 22" wheels for the Dodge Nitro, so it doesn't seem so far fetched to believe at least the 2005 PW wheels were also produced by Alcoa.
TSB 22-003-06 was put out by Chrysler to address issues in MY 2005 Power Wagons where there is a strong pull to the right. The TSB doesn't state what the defect in the BFG tires is, but a good number of folks have gotten their tires replaced under this TSB. Unfortunately, I wasn't one of them. The dealer stated that the tires were severely cupped (the word severely being highly debatable) due to the lack of rotating the tires according to schedule. While I admit I did not rotate my tires, I have to wonder whether the excessive cupping is the defect that the TSB adresses. I guess I'll never know.
To be elegible for replacement under the TSB, your truck must still be within the 3yr/36,000 mile warranty period. That means most MY 2005s are already past or soon will be.
If there's one maintenance piece that is tough to find, it's this. Unique to Power Wagons, many dealerships will argue that it just doesn't exist. Well, here it is, how to find it and what needle fitting you'll need.
First, jack the driver side front up so that you can spin the tire. Slowly turn it until you get the grease fitting into view. If your u-joints are dirty, this will be hard to see so you might want something to clean around in there. After you grease it up, you might want to use a Q-tip to clean up overspill so it doesn't collect more dirt and will be easier to find in the future. Some folks have even used nail polish to mark arrows on the u-joint to make it wasier to find.
We received some information concerning the production numbers for the 3G MYs. We're not sure however, whether this information is U.S. only sales or also Canadian and other countries.
2005: 2,427
What's interesting to note it that in each subsequent MY, how sales dropped so dramatically. Based on this info, I have formed the opinion that there will not be any 4G PWs. That's a very depressing thought, because Chrysler finally decided to give the interior of the 4G trucks a really beautiful overhaul, or at least they did in the 1500 series. Well, it looks like there will indeed be a 4G PW with the 2010 model. More than happy to eat crow on this bad prediction!
What is the locker bypass, and what exactly does it do? Well, if you want the real meat, go to the locker bypass page here on the Power Wagon Registry. However, the short version is this:
A stock PW will only engage the lockers (rear or front and rear) in 4-lo. It will also only disengage the Smart-Bar (sway bar disconnect) in 4wd (either hi or lo). The locker bypass essentially bypasses the transfer case position sensor (TCPS) and tricks the computer into thinking it's in 4-lo when it really isn't. This is a simple modification with an in-line resistor and a SPDT switch.
RGory from the DodgeTalk Power Wagon forum took the plans and made it even simpler by designing a custom connector coupled with parts from Chrysler to make a plug-and-play version which doesn't involve cutting any wires.
So what does the locker bypass do for you. Well, because the computer thinks you're in 4-lo when engaged, you can engage the lockers in 4-hi, 4-lo, and even 2wd. Obviously, trying to engage the front locker in 2wd isn't going to work and could potentially damage something. You'll want to avoid doing that. Additionally, you can disengage the Smart-Bar in 2wd.
So why would you want to have rear lockers in 2wd? You'd be surprised at how well it works in the sand. Also being able to disengage the Smart-Bar in 2wd gives a softer ride in rutted and potholed backroads. You just have to remember that the Smart-Bar will re-engage at speeds greater than 18MPH regardless of having the locker bypass engaged or not.
The Power Wagon rock rails (RRs) were manufactured under OEM contract with Algonquin Automotive. In an e-mail exchange with their Executive Assistant Maureen Jennings, she stated that both Chrysler and Algonquin were disappointed with the low manufacturing volume. The production of RRs was discontinued and the tooling to produce them has long since been dismantled.
Due to agreements with Chrysler, they were also unable to disclose any tech specs for the RRs. This means that whatever RRs are out on the market now are the only ones left. Get them while you can.
One thing to be cognizant of, is that you need to check with whoever you're buying the RRs from to make sure it comes with the mounting hardware. A number of us bought RRs with no or incomplete hardware. I solved this issue by taking my truck to a very knowledgable welder who did a fantastic job of welding them to the frame. I've heard that welding to hydroformed frames is a no-no, but the guy from Duke City Automotive here in Albuquerque told me it could be done carefully. I will say that I have put my RRs through quite a bit of punishment and they (and the frame) have held up perfectly.
Wow. If there was ever a more confusing set of circumstances... When the PW was introduced, it was publicized that they would be sequentially numbered. This was further supported by the window sticker which appeared on all production models from 02/2005 to 06/2006.
Here's where things start getting weird. According to a source within Chrysler only the 2005 models were to be sequentially numbered. But the change to remove the "Sequentially Numbered POWER WAGON" text from the window sticker didn't happen until they were into the 2006 production year. There are some 2006 MY PWs with that text on the window sticker.
To the best of my knowledge, the sequential numbering on the 2005 MY trucks read as 90XXXX, where the Xs represent the last four of the VIN and are the sequential number. The 90 in the 12th and 13th position of the VIN seems to be critical in identifying a sequentially numbered 2005 MY PW. I haven't found a 2005 MY production PW that did not have the '90' designator.
However, I have come across two trucks which are 2005 MY PWs but they do not carry the '90' designation. Further investigation into these two trucks has revealed that both of them were preproduction trucks used to showcase the new Power Wagon. One of these trucks has a '70' in the 12th and 13th position, and the other has a '71'. To the best of my knowledge, production models began in 02/2005 and the designation truck '71' was built 10/2004 while the '70' designation truck was built 04/2004. I've spoken quite a bit to both of the owners of these two trucks, and I believe the '71' designation truck was one of the ones used by magazines to test drive for their articles. The '70' designated truck could possibly be the very first one built off the assembly line and carted around to promote the new Power Wagons at shows.
So, given this information, that's why you see one 2005 MY truck registered here with a last four of 9392. That's the '71' designated truck.
If this story isn't strange enough for you, I won't disappoint. While technically every truck is sequentially numbered in the sense that truck A gets, let's say, 1000, and truck B (the one coming off the line right behind it) would get 1001, it appears that Chrysler threw them into the 900,000 range when they numbered them. So we could reasonably expect that the first production 2005 MY PW that came off the line would have the last six of 900001. The number would incrementally increase for each PW that came off the line. Under normal circumstances, you would expect a multi-plant operation to be assigned blocks of numbers so that say plant A has 900001 - 901000 and plant B to have 901001 - 902000. This way the truck could be mass produced via two locations without having a numbering collision. If we continue with this train of thought, then it would be expected that 900001 and 901001 could presumably roll off their respective assembly lines at the exact same time.
Given this, you could have a numerically higher last six with an earlier production date than another numerically lower truck. However, to the best of my knowledge, all PWs were assembled at the Saltillo plant in Mexico. If this is true, then you shouldn't have a numerically higher VIN with an earlier production date than a numerically lower VIN truck. However, this is indeed the case. I have tracked a number of 2005 PWs that display this discrepancy. The linked PDF is an export sorted first by MY, then manufacture date. You can clearly see that #0415 (sequential number) built in 03/2005 is lower than #1432 built in 02/2005.
How this happened, I really don't have any idea. It shouldn't have happened if all the PWs were indeed built at the Saltillo plant.
So, what does all this mean? Beats the heck out of me. Either Chrysler sorta fed us a story about the sequential numbering, or there is some other factor that I'm not aware of. If you have any ideas, I'm all ears.
I'll be the first to admit that while the lockers on the 3G Power Wagons are awesome, their achilles heel is the slowness in which they engage. I've heard stories of people more or less having driven back and forth hundreds of feet and taken over five minutes to get both sets of lockers to finally engage. The good news is that with the below tips, you can significantly reduce the time it takes. They are ordered top to bottom by most likely to help.
Practice makes perfect - The more you use the lockers, the easier they engage in the future. I literally hit a patch of dirt near my house every day coming home from work to engage my lockers. After a couple weeks, my engage time dropped from about two minutes to about 30 seconds.
Wheel spin - Let's say you're trying to lock up the front. If you can get in a position where one tire is in something loose like mud, ice, soft sand, while the other tire is on something a bit more hard packed, then a little gas to get the wheel in the loose stuff to spin just a bit faster than the other will lock them up pretty quick. I've even put one tire up against a rock and gave it just a little gas to get the other tire to turn and it locks up pretty quick. Remember, you don't want to gun it, just enough to get one tire turning while the other is stationary is all you need.
Slow S-turns - You'd think this is only for the front lockers, but by doing tight s-turns, you force one rear wheel to move slower than the other and this will help lock up quicker. It's also good for the front lockers.
Lastly, the rear locker must be engaged first (meaning it's locked) before the front will even attempt to lock. Some people have reported that moving the switch to just engage the rear first and then moving it to engage the front too seems to speed things up. However, I don't honestly think it will make that much of a difference.


Last winter I was having birthday brunch with Dave at the lovely Steadfast Coffee and we ran into my fellow social worker/professional acquaintance, Cameron. She's so cool. She's a social worker, yoga instructor, rock climber, a true beauty. The kind of person you want to be like. I had a stack of books, including some cookbooks on our table and it sparked a conversation about cooking as we stood there chatting. We discovered our mutual love for the kitchen. (I know… and she is a cook!) I asked her a "must make" recent recipe of hers and she instantly suggested these falafel meatballs with spaghetti squash. She sent me the link to the recipe. I made it a few weeks later and we all loved it. I have made the recipe a couple of times since, so I think I've gotten my groove enough to share it with you, with the tips I've garnered along the way.
Since those who read this blog come from a variety of cultures and food exposure, here is a little culinary context: Falafel is traditionally a Greek food, a meatless meatball made from garbanzo beans. This would be yummy served with Greek fixings (like rice and tzatziki sauce). But so far we have been making it with the spaghetti squash and red sauce, as the recipe detailed, and loving it. Spaghetti Squash is a squash that when cooked, becomes threaded like spaghetti noodles. If you haven't tried making spaghetti squash, you must. It is so magical and fun, that by simply roasting this squash, it cooks such that with a tender pulling of a fork, a bowl full of veggie noodles can be loosened!
Make the falafel balls: Place a Tablespoon of oil in a skillet over medium heat. Add chopped onion and sauté for 2-4 minutes. Add minced garlic and a little coarse salt and pepper. Continue to cook for about 5 minutes or until fragrant.
In a food processor or blender, combine the sautéed onion and garlic, along with all of the remaining ingredients, including the 2 remaining Tbsp of oil.. Combine until texture is well incorporated and smooth. Then roll into small to medium sized balls. (Wetting hands if needed for shaping).
Turn skillet back on, this time to medium and heat up a little oil. Place balls in one layer and brown them, turning them after five minutes or so, turning them so that all sides become brown and firm.
Roll into balls- I am finding that a little bit smaller balls (like the size of a gum ball) make for a an easier cooking throughout.
On a work day, I mixed and formed the meatballs in the morning and refrigerated them until dinner time. I then pulled them out and cooked them while the squash was cooking at dinnertime.
I usually make a batch of pasta as well as the spaghetti squash, since some of my people are more spaghetti-squash eaters than others.
Preheat oven to 350˚. Carefully slice squash in ½ inch longwise. Using a large spoon, scoop out the middle of the squash, with the membranes and seeds and discard. Rub 1 Tbsp of olive oil on exposed squash flesh. Sprinkle with a little coarse salt and pepper. Place flesh side down on baking sheets (covered with parchment paper or aluminum foil for easy clean up). Place in the preheated oven for 45 minutes or until a knife easily cuts through the skin. Remove from oven. Using a fork, gently scrape the interior of the squash until all the flesh is in ribbons in a bowl. Cover with foil or plastic wrap to keep warm until serving.
You can use your favorite bought sauce, or you can make your own. There are no rules on this. The sauce pictured below was some homemade that we had in the freezer. It's a simple but fool proof tomato sauce recipe from Martha Stewart. We call it our house sauce.
Pile noodles on the plate, top with meatballs, top with warm sauce. Top with grated parmesan.
It's a savory, flavorful, healthy meal that is so very satisfying, healthy and affordable.
A little tip: this is not a difficult recipe, nevertheless, there are several steps to take in making it. In fact, as I was making it alone, I thought, "this would be a good recipe to make with a pal!" I find that some recipes are more difficult to co-prepare, and others are well suited for it. With this recipe: one person could chop and sauté while the other measures ingredients; and then both could roll out the balls together, making it super speedy; then one could brown the meatballs, while the other heats the sauce and makes the salad. Meanwhile, an additional friend (or child) could set the table. And in a matter of a few minutes- dinner!
Ringing in my mind is my mother's mantra: "many hands make light work".
While I didn't have much help cooking dinner the other night, it sure was delightful to eat the meal with these goofballs at the table- having fun and enjoying the meal.
What an interesting way to serve falafel! This looks awesome!


It seems like teams, roles and permissions and assumed to be common across all releases at least in a certain folder. However, I would like to assign unique users to certain roles (defined in the template) per release.
- When I create releases based on that template I could specify which users will take the role of "Bride" and "Groom" for that release without having to manually assign all those tasks to the users.
How could I achieve this scenario?
You can use a variable for the task owner I think. Would that work?
It can be done with Teams & Permissions, by creating blank teams and assigning tasks to those teams in the template. Then when the release is created, just assign members to those teams so that they inherit those task assignments.
However, this can only be done if the template is hosted in the root folder. If the template is in any subfolder then teams are inherited form the parent and new ones cannot be created per template.


In minute 98, Charlie, Willy Wonka and Grandpa Joe break through the glass ceiling. Not that glass ceiling, unfortunately. As it breaks through the ceiling, the Wonkavator takes flight, and we get to see a high angle of the town of Nördlingen in Bavaria, Germany, which is standing in for the town that Charlie and Grandpa Joe live in. We also get a composite shot of the Wonkavator flying over the town, which is showing its age. Jason makes an off hand remark which leads to an extensive digression about hamsters, Scrabble and message boards. It doesn't have anything to do with the movie…just go with it.


Thus far in this tips series on Access and SQL Server, we have created an ODBC Data Source Name (DSN) using the OLEDB driver for connecting to SQL Server 2000, as well as a System DSN to connect to a SQL Server 2005 instance using the new SNAC (SQL Native Client) driver. This was in preparation for using Microsoft Access as a front-end tool for a SQL Server 2005 database. Though Access can be considered a sub-par application by the relational database elitists, it can be a very capable alternative for querying data from SQL Server without the learning curve associated with Visual Studio. In some respects, it is the perfect tool for the casual business user who wants to drill into and share their data. So what's next?
In order to connect to Microsoft SQL Server from Microsoft Access you need to set up at least one Linked Table. This table is a pointer to a table in a SQL Server database that is associated with a pre-defined System ODBC Data Source Name (referred to as a DSN from this point forward). In truth, you have many options for setting up Linked Tables from Access; many RDBMSs (Relational Database Management Systems) and Microsoft Office applications for example - even SharePoint and Outlook are options for linking tables back to Microsoft Access. For the purpose of this tip however, we're going to focus exclusively on Microsoft SQL Server. The process from this point forward is compatible with all releases of SQL Server since version 7.0.
By default, Microsoft Access will want to link to another Access database for it's Linked Table source. Browsing the 'Files of Type' pull-down menu on the bottom left of the interface will give you a general idea of just how broad of a scope is available for Linked Table sources. Since we are focusing on SQL Server as a data source, navigate down the list of 'Files of Type' options and select the 'ODBC Databases()' option. Then click the 'Link' button on the right of the interface.
After pressing the 'Link' button, you will be greeted with a dialog for selecting the DSN for linking to Access. If you have been following along on the previous tips in this series (Microsoft Access and SQL Server Integration and SQL Server SNAC Creation and Configuration) you will see a DSN that has been set up for a SQL Server 2005 database of your choosing. If not, you can create a new one now by clicking the 'New' button on the bottom right of the interface and following the procedures in SQL Server SNAC Creation and Configuration. Once you have either created or identified the proper SQL Server DSN, highlight it and click the 'OK' button.
When creating the DSN for this process, you configured it to use either SQL Server or Windows (Trusted) security. You will be prompted again at this point when attempting to make use of the DSN. Select the appropriate security measures to authenticate to the data source referenced in the DSN and click the 'OK' button.
If you have rights to the database associated with the DSN you will be presented with a listing of database objects (note that you are not limited to linking just to tables, but rather views and stored procedures are available options also). We are going to focus strictly on linking to SQL Server tables for this exercise. I am using Northwind as a database source in this tip, so you will see below that I have selected all tables except for the date-specific table 'Category Sales for 1997' in the tables listing on the interface.
Once selecting the 'OK' button on the previous screen you will be prompted to select a 'Unique Record Identifier' for each table. In a nutshell, you are being asked for the primary key for the table. If you are privy to this information please select the correct field because performance depends on it. If performance is not an issue, you may simply press the Cancel button throughout this process. The table linking will still complete successfully whether you set a Primary Key or not.
Once you have made your way through the previous step you will see a table listing similar to what is below. Make note that Microsoft Access' naming convention process will concatenate the RDBMS schema owner and RDBMS object name in the format of <schema>_<object_name>. You can rename the table in Access after linking and the link will not be broken. However, there will be some minor ramifications in doing so when it comes to using the Microsoft Linked Table Manager which will be highlighted in a future tip.
At this point you may utilize the linked tables as though they are native Access objects. You can create queries against them, report off of them, use them as the record source for Access forms and run Visual Basic for Applications (VBA) code against them.
Review the other tips in this series on SQL Server interaction with Microsoft Access.
Stay tuned for subsequent tips on creating SQL Pass-Through Queries in Microsoft Access and advanced usage of SQL record sources with Microsoft Access.
Link one of your existing SQL databases to Access using the process outlined in this tip. Run some queries against it. What does performance look like? Be prepared to answer that question again once we build a pass-through query in our next tip.
SQL server express 2014 as backend for a ms Access 2010 frontend.
Both SQL Server and Access installed on the same machine.
The biggest table (till now): 205 rows, 44 columns.
Dubble click on tablelink gives a first response after 32 sec.
Using a Pass Through-query gives similar results.
Examening above table with SQL Server Management Studio: < 1 sec.
Any suggestios on how to solve this problem please??
Followed steps to link to SQL12 database, selected tables are visible in access13 but all fields are filled with #Deleted. Data is present in the table when viewed in SSMS. Suggestions?
I wanna change APP=Microsoft Office 2010 to 2007, is this doable ?
I am using the linked tables, however if I add a new table in SQL and link it to the access application, everytime I try to access that new table access asks for the login info for SQL again. How do I get it to use the same info the rest of the application is using and stop asking for login info?
Hi Matthew, does the SQL Server table have a primary key?
Now, when click the command to to change the vaslue of these two fields I got a message saying this record is not updatable!
MsgBox "Please Type in the Customer Tracking Code and try again", vbCritical, "Package Management System"
MsgBox "This Package is already Collected by the Owner", vbInformation, "Package Management system"
sql = "Select * From MainPackages where Status = 'Arrival'"
I am developing an access tool for my clients, but I been having a problem trying to find an offline solution. Due to my client location, internet is on and off all the time, they need to enter data everyday. It seems that there is no many solutions out there. I had already an access app ready for them and tried to link it to an ms access desktop but odbc does not work off ine. So my question is: Is there any way for this info to be stored in the computer and updated to the server once the internet is back? like sharepoint list..?
If I have an existing table that has FK relationships to other tables and used in forms/reports/queries all over the place. Is there a way to 'replace' the MS Access table with a Linked table using the same name?
Can we access and perform the SQL statements like insert and update on the linked table (dbo_tablename) present in MS Access through the Oracle SQL Developer. If yes then How? it require any extra effort. Please help.
I know we can access the normal MS Access table and can perform the sql statements through SQL Developer.
SQL Server Migration Wizard for MS Access (a free MS tool) see post above is a great way to get started.
http://www.access-programmers.co.uk/forums This is a frequent subject on this forum.
Would personally suggest using the SQL Server Native Client driver with scripts for a DSN-Less linked tables.
Needless to say, you will want to look at a Split Database (front-end linked to back-end DB).
MS Access is a fantastic way to upload data. You are on the right track.
I am working in a simple MS Access 2010 software recently developed for a specific purpose. We are a small group of 10 people. We have a Share Drive "Q". I pasted MS Access Software in this Q Drive for multi user access. The command buttons, in my Access 2010 Forms, show different shapes when this software is accessed by 2 or 3 users. No error messages. Our group want to use my SearchForm in my Access 2010 software, for search operations. My job to upload data.
I never used MS SQLserver. Is it easy to work with it, if I have experience MS Access?
Can we use MS SQLserver instead & download this Forms & Tables from my MS Access 2010 software, for multiuser setup? will it work?
Great articles. Placing them in my internet favorites. My preference is to use MS SQL Server Native Client 11.0 with DSN-Less table connection.
A local access table hold a column with the SQL Server table name (or SQL Server View name) to link and a checkbox column on if to indicate if it should be linked or not. Using code, all the linked tables can be destroyed, then those that are checked are re-established. This way, a application can quickly be connected to a Production SQL Server DB, a Test SQL Server DB and other DB.
Using the SQL Server Migration Wizard for MS Access (a free MS tool) the data type conversions have worked very well.
The Front-End database is hosted on a Citrix Server. As each user logs in, a copy of the Front-end is created in the user's folder on the Citrix server. This allows users nationally to enjoy Cloud style rich front-end applications on extremelly low bandwidth. It also adds another level of security. End users with almost any platform (including Mac) can use the Access application. If there is a Citrix client for the end-user's computer, the application can be used.
For reports, Access Reports don't work well with Citrix. Using Microsoft Excel Object Model code allows the user to run a custom report and save it on the network. Each Excel report is saved in the user's network folder. Users often prefer Excel as an output.
Thanks to excellent articles like yours, many Access programmers are moving to SQL Server. It is a great match with many rewards. Please continue publishing these types of articles.
The linking with sql server and MS Access is working good. But when i want to open the linked table in MS Access it asking every time user id and password. so i can't use the Linked tables in my program.
three tables a, b, c, so I am inserting data in a table but same data should be fell in other b & c table.
I liked the content of linking the tables . currently im facing 1 problem , actually I want to automate the process of refreshinh the linked tables but everytime i connect to my link table using vb code i get a password window and i have to enter it manually. so i want that this work should be done by vb code so that i can fully automate this process.
Okay. Thanks for the information. Unfortunately, this db is part of a software package that I won't be able to change. Was just hoping there were additional drivers or something to get around it.
The only way you can get this translate properly is change the data type on SQL Server from bigint to integer. You probably should never have to use the bigint data type because integer goes up to 2,147,483,647.
Okay. I can see bigint on one of the fields in SQL Server Management Studio. Is there a way to get this to transalte properly in Access?
You would have to see the data on SQL Server 2005. You need to have SQL Server Management Studio install and have access to look at the database and see the tables field descriptions. You can not see it in Microsoft Access.
ok. I'm not a sql expert. How can I see what data type is being used and is there a way to make it work, with or without changing the data type? Any driver updates or anything like that?
You are probably using big int as data type in SQL Server or so data type that does not translates properly between SQL Server and MS Access.
Can someone tell me why I get #Deleted on some linked tables when I try to view it in Access, using the linked tables option connecting to SQL server 2005 via ODBC?
Angelgirl - You can share the database - but doing so will require a DSN on each machine.
I'm curious how this may work programmatically? Is it possible to implement this linking technique and access a .mdb file using ADO in C++ and all the SQL Server linking happens transparently? I'm just guessing that this is probably something handled on the frontend in Access and wouldn't be transparent on a programming level when communicating directly with the MDB file. Thanks for any insight!
I am wanting to link an SQL Server Database query view as a table in an Access database. My question is, will it act like a regular Access table that can be shared or like an Excel linked table, which I've had problems sharing when multiple users are doing reports that are based on queries using the same tables.
My hope is that by linking it directly to the SQL database I can solve that problem. Do you happen to know if that is the case?
PS - as you can tell, I'm new at the SQL thing, we've just been using the CSV files output by the database and I'm on the user side, not using direct queries on the database. Thanks for any insight.
The articles and tips have been helpful, I'm going to keep searching. Thanks!
No, I never found a solution. The work-around that I use is to stay in the "External Data" tab of the Access 2007 ribbon if possible, rather than returning to the "Home" tab. – Pat G.
Pat, i am running into a similar situation, were you able to find any acceptable work arounds to this issue.
I am using ADOX to create Linked Tables from a SQL 2005 database. By default the ADOX Table object does not contain the owner (in your example dbo_). I have a need to INCLUDE the owner in some cases. Do you know of a way to make this happen using ADOX?
This is purely conjecture though, but makes sense with the behavior you're experiencing.
Our shop has used this extensively for a number of years, i.e., linking to SQL tables from MS-Access. I have recently noticed a problem and I am not sure how long it existed and/or if there is a fix. Our environment is Windows XP(SP2), Office 2007/MS-Access 2007, SQL 2005 and SQL 2000. The error occurs when linked to either SQL 2005 or 2000.
We have many large tables, 40,000+ records, and most have datetime fields, some with multiple datetime fields and these are the problem.When I create a new linked table I choose the External Data tab in the MS-Access "ribbon" at the top, I choose "More" under Import and go through the steps to link a table. After completing the link, if I open the table, still within the "External Data" ribbon tab, the table opens and I can focus on any cell, use arrows or tab to move quickly from field to field NO PROBLEM. However, if I select the "Home" tab from the top ribbon, the linked table remains open and I can focus into any cell and move using arrow keys or tabs, BUT, if I move into a datetime field, there is a long delay(30 secs - 5 minutes) before control returns. When it does, the total record count now appears in the bottom status bar("1 of 40,000" for example). If I move down the same datetime column there is no more delay. However, if I move into another datetime column, the delay recurs. It seems like the first time each datetime column receives focus it loops through each record doing something and it takes way longer than simply clicking the "Last Record" arrow in the bottom status bar.
If I close the table and open again the same problem occurs where the initial focus to a datetime column results in long delays. This only occurs when the current ribbon tab is "Home". Pretty weird, huh?
I would appreciate it greatly if you can solve this problem but, whether you can or not, would you recommend another good forum for this type of SQL/Access question. Mostly I deal with ASP.Net stuff.
James, the new tip addressing your question has been finished and should go out in the next week.
James, you touch upon something I'll be covering in a tip at the end of this month, but there is a Linked Table Manager plugin within Microsoft Access you can use to update the linked tables without destroying them. Since you asked, I'll make a point of using your specific situation in the tip as an example.
ADP started in Access 2000.
Another great and accurate article. A question I have is in your article you stated to select the 'primary key' for the tables or 'cancel' if you don't know them; if you don't know them and later find them out how can you update the table to use the 'primary key'? Would you have to recreate the linked table or is there a method that can be used to just update the linked table?
Thanks for the article and information; this is spot on especially in cases of using Access 97 on the front-end (where ADP isn't an option).
I peferred to use the ole db thru Microsoft access adp (project) because you do not have to go each PC to created that ODBC connection or changed the server. I thinked that ODBC is older way of doing thing. The adp of Microsoft Access is cleaner, faster, and do not have go to each PC.

A footballer who used a broken bottle to stab a member of an opposing team found himself before Chief Magistrate Ann McLennan charged with the indictable offence.Jillian Knox, 25, of Lot 36 Pearl, East Bank Demerara (EBD), allegedly unlawfully and maliciously wounded Keith Dalton with intent to murder him on April 11, 2018 at Coverden, East Bank Demerara (EBD).According to the facts of the matter presented by Police Prosecutor Gordon Mansfield, the two men who play for opposing teams had a misunderstanding on the day in question.As such, an altercation ensued when Knox broke a bottle and dealt Dalton a stab to his right side.Dalton was rushed to the hospital where he was admitted for three days.Knox was released on $250,000 bail on the condition that he reports to the Timehri Police Station every other Friday until the conclusion of the matter.He was also ordered by the Chief Magistrate to stay 50 feet away from the Virtual Complainant (VC) and witnesses in the matter.Knox is expected to make his next appearance at the Georgetown Magistrates' Courts on April 30, 2018. read more
ANUG aims to "transform" political system
– floats shared governance but will not coalesceAfter decades of failed promises by the two main political parties in Guyana, A New and United Guyana (ANUG) is entering the political arena with a promise to work in a constitutional framework that demands inclusion and cooperation for the interest of all Guyanese.The party pointed out that a vast majority of the electorate is already loyal to one of the two major ethnic parties – People's Progressive Party/Civic (PPP/C) and the A Partnership for National Unity/Alliance For Change (APNU/AFC) – which they support in the belief that they gain some sort of protection if their party is in office. However, the reality is that when one party is in office, the other section of theThe founding members of A New and United Guyana (ANUG) at the party's launch on Fridayelectorate feels abandoned, marginalised, and discriminated against.To this end, ANUG is imploring Guyanese to support the party and assist in creating a constitutional system that will bring ethnic parties to share executive power and give the nation confidence that a system of governance will be introduced to protect their interests."We believe that the only solution is to create a system where both political parties share executive power so that all Guyanese can move forward in confidence that their combined interests are protected. The two main political parties are unwilling to take these steps, despite decades of promises by both of them. Only a separate political movement, a third party, can motivate them to do so," the new party said.ANUG outlined that the large ethnic groups consisting of over 75 per cent of the voting population and a competitive political system make the political context extremely toxic – an environment that rewards ethnic loyalty at the ballot box and makes politicians ethnic entrepreneurs. However, the party noted that there are constitutional ways out of this dilemma."We believe that Guyanese have already paid the human and material price, and ignorance can no longer be the excuse. So we stand ready with an agenda to radically reform the political system under which we live and establish a system that will give all ethnicities an equitable constitutional stake in executive decision-making and implementation," ANUG assured.The party committed to work from the first day of taking constitutional office or being able to otherwise influence governmental policy, to establish shared executive power and within one month of being able to do so, set about the constitutional reform process to make the necessary changes in the Constitution. It also promised to never enter a coalition with any other political party for the purpose of securing a role in Government.In fact, one of the party's founding members, former Speaker of the National Assembly and former PPP Executive Ralph Ramkarran, at the party's launch on Friday at Moray House, gave an undertaking that ANUG would not join either of the major parties to form a Government."We will not go into a Government, if one of the parties gains a plurality and not a majority and they are searching for a partner to give them a majority, we wouldn't be there… What our role will be is to say this is what we want. If you support this, we will support you and what we want is to build a governance system that is inclusive of everyone and which will solve the political problems of Guyana," the veteran politician told a packed gathering at the party's launch.Ramkarran, who came out of political retirement after resigning from the PPP back in 2011, is confident that ANUG is strong enough to win the upcoming elections or at least get enough seats in the National Assembly to hold the balance of power.According to the party, politicians' promises to Guyanese must mean something and the people should also have some way of enforcing promises. In an effort to demonstrate its commitment, the party said it will make these two main commitments legally enforceable, that is, anyone will be able to go to the courts for the appropriate declarations if the party is to violate either or both commitments. If the court rules against the party, ANUG legally commits to resign from Parliament.Apart from Ramkarran, other frontrunners in the party are former PPP Government Minister Dr Henry Jeffrey, Attorney-at-Law Timothy Jonas, businessmen Beni Sankar and Kian Jabour, as well as Akanni Blair, who was recently appointed PPP's Vice Chairman in Linden. The party is now looking to pull in female members, saying that those they have approached thus far are willing to support ANUG but fear discrimination to publicly join the party.Moreover, ANUG is also facing this conundrum with the business community, saying that while businesses have pledged to support the new party, they are only willing to do so anonymously.ANUG will be pushing on this agenda: opportunities for youth, reducing poverty, streamlining the oil and economic sectors, tackling corruption and climate change. read more
Govt sets sights on US$282M owed by GuySuCo, GPL
The Guyana Sugar Corporation (GuySuCo) and the Guyana Power and Light (GPL) together owes Government a whopping US2 million and the coalition A Partnership for National Unity/Alliance for Change (APNU/AFC) Government has indicated its intention to begin recovering this money from the two cash-strapped State Owned Entities (SOE).This information is contained in the recently released Public Debt Report for 2015 which was prepared by the Debt Management Division (DMD) of the Ministry of Finance and made public on Friday last by Substantive Minister, Winston Jordan.Government has been struggling over the years to recover the monies it had loaned the two state entities.At end-2015, GPL and GuySuCo had repaid less than one per cent of their debt payable to Government.According to Minister Jordan in his Public Debt Report, two entities have over the years been billed for the debt service payments falling due but have not made payments to the Government.Jordan concedes that while many SOEs do not appear to have the resources to service their debt obligations to the Government, "The process of reconciling the debt outstanding by SOEs to the Government commenced in 2015."He noted too that at end-2015, this process was still in progress but at "the end of the exercise, the Government will make arrangements to recover the debt from the SOEs."On-lendingThe two entities became indebted to the State through loans handed to it by government through what is referred to as an 'on-lending arrangement.'Such an arrangement obtains where the Government obtains a loan, usually concessional financing from an international financial institution such as the World Bank or Caribbean Development Bank, and then passes on the loan principal to another entity, usually a SOE.The two beneficiaries of on-lend loans from Government are GPL and GuySuCo and "At end-2015, the Government had on-lent some US$282M to these two entities."Of that amount, 54.8 per cent was on-lent to the GPL.There are a total of 11 such loan agreements, seven of which are between the Government and the GPL, and four with GuySuCo.Of the 11 agreements, six were financed directly from the PetroCaribe Fund.According to information in the report over the review period, all new on-lending agreements were contracted with the GPL in the amount of US$80.1 million with the source of funding being the PetroCaribe Fund.GPL, according to the Report has been the only SOE that benefitted from the PetroCaribe Fund in addition to another China Exim loan to the tune of US$39.6 million.The report documents also that of the beneficiaries of the on-lend loans, GuySuCo was the only SOE covered by a Memorandum of Understanding (MoU), which was specifically for loans on-lent in relation to the Skeldon Sugar Modernisation Project.The MoU states the all payments due within three years after 2008 will be deferred but that MoU came to an end on December 31, 2011.GuySuCo has not however resumed repayment of its obligations to the Government.Strategically importantOn-lending is said to be a means by which Government can support strategically important projects that aid national development.The Government enters an on-lending arrangement given that the primary loan proceeds are earmarked to fund capital expenditure for the SOEs.The terms and conditions of the primary loan agreements differ typically from those included in subsidiary loan agreements.Interest rates are usually higher in subsidiary loan agreements than in primary loan agreements, but the rate is generally lower than the rate that the beneficiary could otherwise negotiate from commercial lenders.According to the Report, by improving their financial viability, on-lending can facilitate the delivery of development projects that are expected to provide broader economic benefits to Guyana. read more

"We want to know where the Region is" – Ninvalle
…GBA kick starts junior championships todayBoxing action will return to the National Gymnasium this evening as the Guyana Boxing Association (GBA) is preparing to host the third edition of the Caribbean Schoolboys and Juniors Championships.GBA President Steve Ninvalle; Director of Sport, Christopher Jones and Jamaican Coach Gilbert Valdz flanked by members of the Jamaican junior teamThe Championships, which were first hosted in Guyana back in 2016, sees participation from numerous countries around the Caribbean, inclusive of Jamaica, Grenada, and Trinidad and Tobago.With those teams coming into the Land of Many Waters, GBA President Steve Ninvalle divulged the aims of the Association's initiative. "What we have done in Guyana is that we have seen the need for emphasis to be placed on the nursery of the sport not only in this country but wider afield, and it was with this in mind that we sat, we plotted, we planned, and we came up with this tournament."Furthermore, the GBA President posited that the event was not being viewed as only a competition but as a way to assess the continued development of the Caribbean's young boxers."It's not about Guyana actually winning, this is a collaborative regional effort and we want to know where the Region is as it relates to that department of the sport. After this, we'll take a panoramic view and we can say aptly that as a region the Caribbean needs to do this and that," Ninvalle stated.The Association President also took the time to highlight the fact that the GBA has multiplied the number of junior competitions in order to produce the best for the tournament. In past years, only two competitions were held internally; that number has been raised to two per month.Following a similar train of thought, Director of Sport, Christopher Jones spoke on the measures being taken by his office to improve the quality of the Championships. Jones disclosed that the National Sport Commission (NSA) has gone as far as employing a coach who was working with young boxers in the hinterland regions."The NSC would have hired a boxing coach and he's particularly working in the outlying regions – One, Seven, Eight and Nine. Because we recognise like the coast, many of those talents could be found in the hinterland region. And, as such, Mr Rogers has been working, identifying those boxers and essentially feeding them into the programmes that are had by the Boxing Association."Furthermore, the Director of Sport explained that these tournaments were a testament to how much those initiatives have nurtured the athletes. "We have essentially seen the growth of our young boxers because of the programme that they would have set out. More particularly, this schoolboys and junior tournament provides an opportunity for those young boxers to be scouted."The first team to land on these shores for this year's tournament were the Jamaican team comprising three males, one female and a coach. Speaking on behalf of his team, Coach Gilbert Valdz praised the GBA for hosting the event."Competition like this is good for us in the Caribbean, and Guyana has been holding up the Caribbean where schoolboys and amateur boxing around the Region is concerned. I want to give the President and his team a very hearty thank you for keeping their end of the bargain in promoting youths," the Jamaican said.The three-day competition will utilise a budget of $6 million and the NSC has committed to sponsoring transportation, meals and petty cash among other things. All the teams for the competition will be weighed in tomorrow morning before the first punch is thrown at the National Gymnasium, Mandela Avenue at 18:00h (6pm) sharp. read more
Liverpool still have plenty to prove -Van Dijk
0Shares0000Exciting times: Virgil van Dijk has urged Liverpool to not get carried away with their six-point lead at the top of the Premier League © AFP / Oli SCARFFLONDON, United Kingdom, Dec 27 – Virgil van Dijk admits it is an exciting time to be a Liverpool player, but warned the Premier League leaders have won nothing yet.A year on since becoming the world's most expensive defender in a £75 million ($95 million) move from Southampton, the Dutchman has more than justified his enormous transfer fee by helping to transform Liverpool's defensive record. Jurgen Klopp's men have conceded just seven goals and are yet to be beaten in 19 Premier League games — a run that has enabled them to streak six points clear at the top of the table."It feels like it is an exciting time at Liverpool – and hopefully it will prove to be that as well," Van Dijk told the club's website."What's important is we need to keep going; we cannot be satisfied with what we have right now because we have nothing at the moment. We need to keep going, stay humble and work hard."Van Dijk's arrival helped spark a run to last season's Champions League final, but two huge errors from goalkeeper Loris Karius helped Real Madrid retain their crown as European champions with a 3-1 win in Kiev.The signing of Brazilian number one Alisson Becker to replace the German has further bolstered Liverpool's defence, but Van Dijk is still credited as the man who has helped turn Klopp's side into title contenders."Our defensive record this season has been spoken about a lot and I'm definitely proud of it," he added."The entire team has contributed towards it and we should all be proud of the fact we're trying to keep clean sheets, not only the defence."When things are going well people will probably say that I am the one that changed things, but it is not like that."But if things are not going well, I am the guy that will get the blame because of my transfer fee. But that's the life we live as footballers."– 'Huge hunger' –Van Dijk has also been named captain of the Netherlands as his reputation around the world has soared over the past year, but he believes at 27 he still has room for improvement."I have improved in every aspect of my game I think, but there is still plenty to improve."I still have some time to do that I think. I need to keep improving, doing what we're doing and hopefully achieve good things."In contrast to their unbeaten run in the Premier League, Liverpool survived three defeats in their Champions League group to progress to the last 16 where they will meet German giants Bayern Munich.And Van Dijk believes the pain of losing to Real in May will spurn Liverpool on to win a sixth European Cup in the coming seasons."As a player, losing a final can definitely give you a huge hunger to get back there and win it."Now I want to do everything that is possible to reach that stage again. It's tough, but we need to keep doing what we're doing and hopefully it's going to happen again one day."0Shares0000(Visited 1 times, 1 visits today) read more
Southampton transfer news: Striker set for exit as Juventus eye deal
Graziano Pelle Juventus have become the latest club to register an interest in wantaway Southampton striker Graziano Pelle.Southampton are ready to cash in on the Italian international after he reportedly fell out with the club's coaching staff towards the end of last season, leaving Ronald Koeman with no choice but to leave him out of the side.However, Koeman is interested in bringing Pelle with him to Everton this summer, while Stoke have also tried to make contact with the player.But, according to Sportitalia, Juve could now be the favourites to land the 30-year-old by offering him Champions League football and a return to his homeland.The report suggests the Italian champions are lining up a £7m offer for Pelle, which is expected to be short of Saints' valuation of the forward.But Juve have the financial muscle to up their offer if needed, with Southampton keen on pocketing at least £10m for him. 1 read more
Rio Hondo hopefuls near spending record
Siegrist said he thinks it is wrong to accept donations from people and companies that do business with the college. "I don't think it's ethical,' he said. "People expect favors back when they do that kind of thing.' Quintero disagreed. "A lot of folks who are contributing to me have seen first- hand the work I've been doing at Rio Hondo College,' he said. "It also takes three votes to approve a contract. Whether they're contributing to me or not, it's not something I factor into my decision-making.' Ghysels also isn't relying much on friends for campaign money. He is his biggest contributor, having loaned his campaign $7,000 of his own money. "I think this position is important, and I have this passion on education,' he said. Couso-Vasquez, Montebello's chief of police, said he is not worried that his opponent, Ghysels, has raised more money than he has, particularly because Couso-Vasquez has three fund-raisers scheduled. Also, he said, his campaign will be more grass-roots. In the Division 3 race, where Acosta-Salazar has raised nearly three times as much as her opponent, much of her money has come from friends, many of whom do not live in the district. "I've been working for the last eight years on a statewide level on issue of education,' she said. "I've been really blessed to have friends and family that support my commitment to education.' Reyes said he is not worried about being outspent by Acosta- Salazar. "She isn't known in the community, so she has to get her name out,' he said.

AD Quality Auto 360p 720p 1080p Top articles1/5READ MOREWalnut's Malik Khouzam voted Southern California Boys Athlete of the Week Acosta-Salazar's opponent in Division 3, Louis Reyes, has raised $6,121 and spent $1,762. In trustee Division 5, Tom Ghysels and Garry Couso-Vasquez have raised $8,448 and $4,920, respectively. Most of the candidates have raised funds through donations from their friends. One exception, however, is Quintero, who received some of his money from people and companies that have contracts with the college. Those giving at least $1,000 to Quintero's campaign include Trinidad Jimenez, executive director the Rio Hondo College Foundation; HMC, an architectural firm; Southwest Management Consultants; Vanir Construction Management; and Vantage Technology Consulting Group. That is in sharp contrast to Quintero's opponent, David Siegrist, who has neither raised nor spent any money so far. COVINA — Four years after Rio Hondo College trustee Michelle Yanez spent $22,501 on her campaign considered a record at the time two candidates vying for different seats on the college district's Board of Trustees appear to be on their way to surpassing her spending. Trustee Andre Quintero, a candidate for the Division 1 seat, has raised $29,408 in campaign contributions and spent $20,641 of that amount. Meanwhile, Angela Acosta-Salazar, who is running in Division 3, has received $17,623 and spent $4,415 so far. The figures are from campaign finance reports filed with the Los Angeles County Registrar-Recorder/County Clerk's Office. The Rio Hondo College District is broken up into five different areas, or divisions, with one trustee elected to represent each division of the college's service area. Ralph Pacheco, a former Rio Hondo College trustee who now serves on the Whittier Union High School District school board, said inflation is driving the increased spending in this year's races, but so is the tough competition this election season. The races for the three college district divisions will be decided Nov. 8. "The trustee areas for Rio Hondo are relatively good-sized areas, and they are hotly contested races this year,' said Pacheco, who also is a political consultant. "You combine all of that together and you end up spending a little bit more.' 160Want local news?Sign up for the Localist and stay informed Something went wrong.

Barcelona want to sign Didier Drogba, according to The Sun.The striker's Chelsea contract expires this summer and it is claimed that Barca are keen to offer him a two-year deal worth up to £5m a season in the hope he will snub a move to China, Milan or the USA.Linked with Barca.A Barcelona source is quoted as saying: "What the team needs is an attacking player who has the presence and strength to trouble defenders."Drogba has that profile and is one of the players the club are looking at."The Sun also suggest that Chelsea could be able to bring Guus Hiddink back to Stamford Bridge because of a break clause in his contract with mega-rich Russian side Anzhi Makhachkala.Hiddink, who managed the Blues in 2009, is said to have until May 30 to decide whether he will sign a new one-year deal or walk away.Meanwhile, Stoke City striker Kenwyne Jones is a target for QPR, the Daily Mail report.It is claimed that promoted Southampton and Russian club Anzhi Makhachkala are also interested in the Trinidad & Tobago international.Potters boss Tony Pulis is said to be willing to listen to offers for Jones, who has slipped down the pecking order of forwards at the Britannia Stadium.The Mail also link Alessandro Del Piero with QPR after the 37-year-old, who is tipped to leave Juventus, told Italian newspaper Corriere Dello Sport that he would like to play in England.The Daily Star say R's captain Joey Barton has drafted in his own solicitor to help him fight a possible 12-game ban from the FA following his outburst against Manchester City.It's believed Barton plans to plead guilty to two charges of violent conduct but will argue he was provoked by City's Vincent Kompany.The Star also report that television personality Michael Barrymore has offered to help Barton.See also:Chelsea are not like Arsenal and shouldn't leave Stamford BridgeA move to the 'Battersea Bridge' makes sense for Chelsea Follow West London Sport on TwitterFind us on Facebook read more

Un héros muet est le personnage principal d'une histoire lorsque celui-ci n'intéragit pas verbalement avec les autres protagonistes. Souvent, cette interaction existe dans les faits mais est implicite dans la narration : les paroles du personnage ne sont simplement pas rapportées.

En littérature

 Certains livres-jeux, dont ceux de la collection Un livre dont vous êtes le héros, présentent un héros muet. Le lecteur assumant l'identité du personnage, ses paroles sont donc implicites.
 Dans le roman Monsieur l'Enfant et le Cercle des bavards (2006) de Frédérick Tristan, l'enfant est muet et juge le comportement des bavards.

Dans les jeux vidéo

Les héros muets prévalent dans le domaine du jeu vidéo, plus particulièrement dans les jeux anciens où les restrictions technologiques limitaient les possibilités de dialogues étendus.

Néanmoins, certains jeux vidéo modernes continuent de faire usage d'un héros muet (pour des raisons artistiques, d'identification du joueur). Parmi ces personnages, on compte notamment :

 Claude Speed de Grand Theft Auto III
 Chrono de Chrono Trigger
 Link de la série The Legend of Zelda
 Gordon Freeman de Half-Life
 Chell de Portal et Portal 2
 Mario, notamment dans les jeux Mario and Luigi où lui et son frère ne s'expriment que par onomatopées. Cela ne s'applique néanmoins pas vraiment à Luigi, qui parle dans de nombreux autres jeux (à l'exception notable des jeux Luigi's Mansion dont il est le protagoniste principal).
 le personnage principal des deux premiers Wing Commander (officiellement nommé Christopher Blair et joué par Mark Hamill dans Wing Commander III)
 les personnages principaux de la série Suikoden (excepté Suikoden III, Tierkreis et Tactics)
 Les héros de la série des Pokémon parlent avec les autres personnages, mais leurs paroles ne sont pas rapportées.
 Le Doomguy ou Doom Slayer, protagoniste de la série de jeux Doom, bien qu'on l'entende prononcer quelques mots dans une séquence de flash-back dans l'épisode Doom Eternal.
Les héros de la série de jeux vidéo Dragon Quest.

Au cinéma

Il existe des héros muets au cinéma, bien qu'ils y soient rares. Il faut néanmoins distinguer ces films des films de cinéma muet, où c'est l'ensemble des personnages qui sont silencieux et non uniquement le personnage principal.

On peut évoquer le personnage de Silent Bob de Jay & Silent Bob, qui apparaît dans divers films dont Dogma et Jay et Bob contre-attaquent (Jay and Silent Bob Strike Back). Il est quasiment silencieux, à l'exception d'une phrase par film (ceci étant une moyenne).

Bill is known as "America's First Feed Bucket Philosopher." His life demonstrates that "WHEN THE DREAM IS BIG ENOUGH THE FACTS DON'T COUNT." Bill's early dreams took him from a farm in Ohio to radio and stage as a singing cowboy and a 300 mile trip on horseback when he was 18.
At age 20 Bill met the Lord, left cowboy showbiz, and 9 years later was registered as a professional engineer. Bill is a Diplomate in the American Association of Environmental Engineers. Millions of people throughout the Midwest are safely drinking water today from the numerous water facilities he designed and managed.
