I was 19 years old and driving a Competition Orange Mercury Cyclone that year, and I recall feeling pity for Chevy Sprint drivers, new-car smell or not. Still, these weren't bad cars for the price , though a Sprint with an automatic transmission was a real character-builder. Got three cylinders and uses 'em all! The Turbo Sprint — yes, such a car existed — had a howling 70 horsepower. In its homeland, this car got screaming guitars and a drive through New York City for its TV commercials. In Canada , not as quick in the uphill dirt drag race as the Black Widow. We get it. Ads can be annoying.

A new, one-piece instrument panel was mounted to one of the five crossmembers with a new, full seal filling the gap between the instrument panel and the dash. This generation featured a coefficient of drag of 0. Its twins, Pontiac Firefly and Suzuki Swift featured the same redesign. At the introduction of this generation, GM arranged for a car carrier with Metros to drive to college campuses across the country. Local writers took a half-day seminar at "Metro University" with the head product planner and senior members of the engineering, assembly, and marketing teams. ACEEE assigns a Green Score to each vehicle make and model sold in the US, based on the vehicles' exhaust emissions, fuel economy and other specifications. Solectria , a Massachusetts company, converted examples of the first and second generation Geo Metro to electric operation. Approximately examples of and models were converted to electric operation—the bare vehicles were provided by GM without engines. US News , [11]. In North America, the Metro received increased interest as a used car in , by virtue of its fuel mileage and rising fuel costs. Partially because of the renewed interest in the Metro, the July issue of Car and Driver included a base model Chevrolet Metro 3-door hatchback among vehicles tested for fuel efficiency alongside two hybrid models: the redesigned Honda Insight and Toyota Prius models. Car and Driver yet jokingly ridiculed the Metro's age and equipment, docking seven points from its overall score for its lack of amenities and mentioning that it was originally sold brand-new without hubcaps. The vehicle finished third overall behind the Insight and Prius. From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia. Further information: Suzuki Cultus.

Everyone everywhere has measureable levels of chlorinated toxins in their bodies. How can we get rid of PVC? >- Since safer alternatives are available for virtually all uses of PVC, it is possible to protect human health and the environment by replacing and eventually phasing out this poison plastic. >- Policymakers at the local, state and federal level should enact and implement laws that steadily reduce impacts of PVC disposal and lead to a complete phase­ out of PVC use and waste incineration within ten years. >- A new materials policy for PVC that embraces aggressive source reduction of PVC should be adopted to steadily reduce the use of PVC over time liPage Background Information "Due to the omnipresence of dioxins, all people have background exposure and a certain level of dioxins in the body, leading to the so-called body burden.

  • Rabbit, Run by John Updike
    Rabbit, Run By John Updike The motions of Grace, the hardness of the heart; external circumstances. -Pascal, Pensée 507 Boys are playing basketball around a telephone pole with a backboard bolted to it. Legs, shouts. The scrape and snap of Keds on loose alley pebbles seems to catapult their voices high into the moist March air blue above the wires. Rabbit Angstrom, coming up the alley in a business suit, stops and watches, though he's twenty-six and six three. So tall, he seems an unlikely rabbit, but the breadth of white face, the pallor of his blue irises, and a nervous flutter under his brief nose as he stabs a cigarette into his mouth partially explain the nickname, which was given to him when he too was a boy. He stands there thinking, the kids keep coming, they keep crowding you up. His standing there makes the real boys feel strange. Eyeballs slide. They're doing this for themselves, not as a show for some adult walking around town in a double-breasted cocoa suit. It seems funny to them, an adult walking up the alley at all. Where's his car? The cigarette makes it more sinister still. Is this one of those going to offer them cigarettes or money to go out in back of the ice plant with him? They've heard of such things but are not too frightened; there are six of them and one of him. The ball, rocketing off the crotch of the rim, leaps over the heads of the six and lands at the feet of the one.

  • Why the Internet Makes Buying a Car Less Loathsome: How Technologies Change Role Relations
    r Academy of Management Discoveries 2015, Vol. 1, No. 1, 31–60. Online only http://dx.doi.org/10.5465/amd.2013.0016 WHY THE INTERNET MAKES BUYING A CAR LESS LOATHSOME: HOW TECHNOLOGIES CHANGE ROLE RELATIONS STEPHEN R. BARLEY Stanford University Drawing on ethnographic data collected over a two-year period in two car dealerships, this paper employs role theory and a dramaturgical analysis of sales encounters to show how the internet has changed the relationship between car salesmen and their customers. The paper explores why Goffman’s dramaturgical approach to analyzing encounters provides a way of analyzing technologically occasioned changes in the in- teraction order of a work system that allows students to grapple more holistically yet systematically with the social and material aspects of such change.

  • La Sociedad Del Riesgo En La Ficción Televisiva Tras El 11 De Septiembre. El Caso De Homeland (Showtime, 2011-) Y the Walking Dead (AMC, 2010-)
    Actas – VI Congreso Internacional Latina de Comunicación Social – VI CILCS – Universidad de La Laguna, diciembre 2014 La sociedad del Riesgo en la ficción televisiva tras el 11 de Septiembre. El caso de Homeland (Showtime, 2011-) y The Walking Dead (AMC, 2010-) Delicia Aguado Peláez - Universidad País Vasco – [email protected] Resumen: Las tesis de Ulrich Beck cobran más vida que nunca tras los atentados del 11 de septiembre de 2011. Pues, tras ellos, se abre la puerta a ese discurso que encumbra la Seguridad por encima de Derechos y Libertades basándose en el riesgo. Una sociedad que teme volver a ser atacada por un enemigo incierto dibujado a golpe de estereotipos a través de alegatos políticos y de representaciones mediáticas. En este segundo escenario es en el que se mueve la presente investigación, que analiza cómo la ficción televisiva, en un momento dulce en su Tercera Edad Dorada, refleja esta sensación de miedo surgida tras los ataques. Para ello se hace uso de dos dramas de la televisión por cable de EEUU con diferente apego a la realidad. Por un lado, la vuelta a la paranoia terrorista de Homeland y, por otro, el holocausto zombi desarrollado en The Walking Dead. Palabras clave: 11S; Ficción; Homeland; Sociedad del Riesgo; series de televisión; The Walking Dead. 1. Introducción Sin importar el rincón del globo en el que cada cual se encontrara aquel 11 de Septiembre de 2001 existe una cierta sensación de haber presenciado en persona el atentado contra el simbólico Word Trade Center . Y es que el primer gran ataque en suelo del gigante norteamericano va también a ser el primero en ser difundido en riguroso directo, haciendo de las propias cámaras de los viandantes los ojos de la comunidad internacional.

  • 1 Muslims As National and Religious Antagonists in HOMELAND's Narr
    ”NICHOLAS, WE’RE AT WAR AND YOU NEED TO CHOOSE SIDES.”1 Muslims as national and religious antagonists in HOMELAND’S narrative Lisa Kienzl UDK 323.15:297(73) 32:17(73):297 791.43(73):297]179 Every individual wants to be part of a community. To reach this goal of be- ing included and to gain social rewards instead of punishments, one has to face the expectations of a community, as Habscheid states.2 To be accepted into a community/society, we have to approve social norms, values and nar- ratives.3 Thus, a national discourse is not only relevant to society’s stability but underlines the importance of collective as well as individual identity building. The US American identity after 9/11 focused especially on a stereotypi- cally produced national enemy visualized in western imagination of Mus- lims and Islam. This defined Islam as an antagonism to the US nation built on Christian values, ignoring the different social groups within the state itself. Portraying Islam as a dominantly negative religion transported stereo- types regarding the representation of Muslims. These ideas expressed them- selves in a nationally defined enemy mediated by modern media. In the US television series HOMELAND, these fears as well as a nationally constructed exclusion discourse have been addressed and discussed. This paper deals with the basic theories on national identity and analyzes the depiction of Islam as antagonism to US American Christian nationalism within the nar- rative of the television series HOMELAND. Identity and Nationalism In general, it should be noted that identity building is a complex process that is collectively constructed through categories of norms and values of * Lisa Kienzl, University of Graz, Institute for Religious Studies, [email protected]–graz.at 1 Homeland, 2.01 The Smile.
