After five years on the market, the Buick Enclave, which was introduced in May 2007 as 2008 model, is getting its first significant makeover. Like its sibling, the Chevrolet Traverse, the 2013-model Enclave is making its debut at the New York Auto Show. Familiar mechanicals Mechanicals are little changed, with the 288-hp, 3.6-liter V-6 still the sole engine, sending 270 pound-feet of torque either to the front wheels or all four. The six-speed automatic transmission has been recalibrated, but EPA fuel economy will remain 16/22 mpg with all-wheel drive and 17/24 mpg for front-wheel-drive models. Buick engineers have also revised the suspension, with new dampers front and rear. The emphasis, though, was on updating the Enclave's appearance, and its in-car electronics. Appearance updates The styling tweaks are subtle. New headlights are now HID, with a blue accent ring, available swivel action, and LED running lights; at the rear are new, LED taillights. The hood, grille, fascias, and...

Representatives from the EPA were in Portland last Thursday, May 17, 2012 to hear Maine perspectives on the first national standards to limit climate-changing carbon pollution from new power plants. Curt Spalding, EPA Regional Administrator, provided a background on the proposed standard. His overview was followed by thirteen panelists providing diverse comments on climate change impacts in Maine and their perspectives on the proposed standard. Panelists included business leaders from forestry to tourism sectors, physicians, energy experts, local elected officials, scientists, and a college president. After the panel presentation, members of the public commented on the proposed standard. More than 125 members of the public attended.

Chances are the knife in your pocket is dull. Really dull. I know because I've seen it! But like automobile maintenance, keeping your blades in top operation form should be a priority. Otherwise it will let you down when you might really need it. I start off the vid by showing you my own medium capability hand sharpening skill on a SOG Gov-Tac. It's ranks about a 6 out of 10 for impressiveness. But not the Edge Pro Apex sharpener. This is a solid 10, the best sharpener I've ever found. The EPA is a compact and easy to taking along manual sharpening system that REALLY works. Much hype has accompanied other sharpeners and I've been disappointed in each one on most levels. They don't' come close to the capabilities of this one. Here I take you for the sharpening ride with the awesome Microtech SOCOM, somewhat dulled after TNP cutting tests. With its S35V steel, it's a perfect test bed for this exercise. Covered in this reference Nutnfancy vid: philosophy on sharpening (and the...
