Over the last decade a new breed of club has evolved that cannot be described by the traditional club numbering system. They have been born out of the need of players to max out the choice of clubs as…

The natural nutrients of mother earth can easily be used to ensure that you only put ingredients on that are found around us (albeit for some you might have to travel a little if you truly want to…

1. The trunk is NOT too small. Two adults and two kids living out of the TCH for 17 days really pushed the limits of the trunk (and my sanity), but we made it.
2. The seats are supremely comfortable. While I’m sure everybody’s shape is different, mine seems to do well in the TCH seats…even after an 800 mile day.
3. My mileage seemed to drop quite a bit after 70 MPH. Our first leg was 70 MPH and returned 41 MPG. Our last leg was 80+ MPH and returned 37 MPH.
4. Crazy heat didn’t affect mileage as much as I thought. Early July, we were driving through 113 degree heat and still at 41 MPG.
5. High elevations and slow speeds do wonders for the MPG. We were posting 43 MPG in Yellowstone.
6. My TCH loves LA. I don’t know if the car was trying to be cool, if CA has better gas, smoother roads or Paris Hilton had anything to do with it, but our best gas mileage of the entire trip was in LA: 49 MPG. I could not belive it. It didn’t last long, and the trip to Las Vegas soon put us back to a tank average of 42.
7. The TCH is NOT an off-road vehicle. I suspect it was the VDIM, but the engine never shut off on a 5 mile section of gravel road, even though we were well under 42 MPH (come on, it was a gravel road!) and the SOC was very good. Overall, the TCH handled very well off road, but it’s no General Lee and I’m no Dukes of Hazard.
8. The ‘ECO’ switch makes a big diffence in mileage. Our’s slipped to 38 MPG until I remembered to press that little doodad.
9. TCH windshields and Utah don’t get along. Utah wins.
10. We only stopped for gas 5 times on a 3000 mile trip. There were many many more potty breaks.

The creation of human-animal hybrid embryos should be allowed for research, and parents should register donor conception on a child’s birth certificate, a parliamentary committee said Wednesday.

The on-line bulb source says its a standard 3057 style bulb. Go to the dealer to replace a turn signal bulb? In my HCH I would have to take the wheel well protector off (in the well - just plastic pins) and thought THAT was a pain.
Hopefully someone else out there has an easy answer for the "dim" DIY person.
Thanks

It seems an unlikely venue for a potential revolution in public transport - a sleepy town in the lush, pine-carpeted mountains of rural Japan. But this is where travellers began paying yesterday to board the world’s first hybrid train service.

Oil prices have risen by 28 percent since the beginning of the year. But that has not slowed the strong growth in oil consumption, bolstered by economic growth in the United States and Asia. Meanwhile, energy supplies have struggled to catch up while a raft of shutdowns at American refineries have crimped production at the busiest time of the year for gasoline. |

Goldman Sachs analysts warned in a recent report that without swift action from Saudi Arabia, oil prices could rise above $90 a barrel this fall. They said that an increase in OPEC production could help push prices down by $5 to $10 a barrel. |
