First Subaru, Now Toyota Teases Upgrades For RWD Sports Car

In the same week Subaru showed a new STI-tuned BRZ concept, Toyota rolled out a version of its GT 86 sports car, a Scion FR-S to U.S. readers, fitted with some of its own performance upgrades. The vehicle, described as a prototype, was presented to Australian media at an event organized by Toyota to mark one year since the launch of the GT 86 in the land down under.

Like the tS (tuned by STI) upgrades fitted to the recent BRZ concept, the upgrades on the GT 86 can best be described as mild. However, they do show that Toyota is at least considering enhancing its popular sports car.

The upgrades include new forged alloy wheels from BBS, which measure 18x7.5 inches and are shod with staggered width 215-millimeter front and 225-millimeter rear Dunlop Direzza R-spec tires. Non-adjustable Sachs dampers were also fitted at all four corners. The upgrades are aimed at improving the car?s cornering stability while also improving its looks. You?ll note the wheel pattern resembles a design used for the halo Lexus LFA supercar.

The GT 86?s chief engineer Tetsuya Tada was down in Australia to help present the prototype. He said the upgrades were the first of many still under consideration for production. They will be introduced gradually to help maintain demand once current orders are filled. Overseas, Toyota already offers a factory aero kit for the GT 86 but has been reluctant to launch similar upgrades in the U.S. Hopefully that policy will change soon.

Easy to find autographs of college stars for sale

NEW YORK (AP) ? A simple search on eBay reveals Heisman Trophy winner Johnny Manziel is far from the only college football player whose autograph is for sale.

Pick a star and you can find memorabilia with a supposedly verified signature.

South Carolina's Jadeveon Clowney. Ohio State's Braxton Miller. Oregon's De'Anthony Thomas. Louisville's Teddy Bridgewater. Alabama's AJ McCarron. The list goes on and on.

The difference is ESPN has reported the NCAA is investigating whether Manziel, the Texas A&M quarterback, got paid to sign autographs, which would violate amateurism rules. That has led to other schools being asked questions about whether their players earned money for signatures.

If the allegations against Manziel, made by unidentified sources to ESPN, are proved true by the NCAA, his eligibility for the coming season could be in doubt as well as his status as a Heisman winner.

ESPN reported that a top autograph authenticator had authenticated nearly 1,000 Manziel autographs.

Brandon Steiner of Steiner Sports, which is the official collectible and memorabilia company of the NBA, the New York Yankees and Notre Dame, among others, said his company does not do business with college athletes.

He said Manziel would likely be able to sign a contract with a collectibles company of at least $100,000 after he went pro.

"I know there is a vibrant Heisman Trophy collectible audience out there," he said.

A market flooded with Manziel autographs could cost him money later, Steiner said.

"It creates market confusion and takes a lot away from the category," Steiner said Wednesday.

Other college athletes might want to take note.

Two sports websites ? bustedcoverage.com and goodbullhunting.com ? found what appeared to be dozens of authenticated items signed by Clowney online, and that led to questions for South Carolina officials.

Associate athletic director Chris Rogers said Wednesday the school's compliance office has looked into the Clowney autographs on eBay and found no violations had occurred.

"The websites that we've looked at and the pictures and autographs and items that we've found over the last academic year, we've not had any issues to suggest that anything impermissible had occurred," Rogers said.

Ohio State athletic director Gene Smith said school officials have determined Miller had not profited from the numerous items found online with his signature. Smith said the quarterback signed many autographs at a Big Ten preseason kickoff luncheon. Presumably fans or memorabilia brokers then went and sold items they got autographed for free.

"We've already looked at it," Smith said. "There's no issue there."

Louisville came to a similar conclusion.

"We are aware of many of the items for sale online that have been autographed by several of our student-athletes with remaining eligibility. As we are required to do by NCAA rules, we regularly review these items and send correspondence to the seller(s) requesting they remove the item for sale," the school said in a statement. "We have and continue to educate our student-athletes that it is not permissible to accept any type of compensation for their autograph or the sale of memorabilia. We have spoken with Teddy Bridgewater and we are comfortable that no violation has occurred."

Clowney, Bridgewater and Miller enter the season has prime contenders for the Heisman.

Manziel became the first freshman to win it last season. It's unclear if an NCAA violation would cause the Heisman trust to reconsider Manziel's victory.

Heisman Trust's rules state: "The recipient must be in compliance with the bylaws defining an NCAA Student-Athlete."

"The Heisman Trust never comments on speculation," Heisman spokesman Tim Henning said Wednesday.

Reggie Bush's 2005 Heisman Trophy was later vacated after the NCAA found he had received improper benefits during his winning season.

More than Snowden keeping US, Russia at odds

(AP) ? How do U.S. leaders feel about Russia's behavior? Not angry, just very "disappointed."

Over and again as they try to patch up troubled relations, Obama administration officials end up reaching for that word that doleful parents use to scold a wayward teenager.

The latest disappointment ? Russia's embrace of a fugitive who leaked U.S. secrets ? pushed President Barack Obama to cancel a one-on-one summit with Russian President Vladimir Putin next month.

Moscow's willingness to harbor National Security Agency leaker Edward Snowden is an example of the kinds of "underlying challenges" that keep getting in the way of his efforts to ease tensions between the former Cold War rivals, Obama says.

Some of the other issues frustrating U.S.-Russian relations:

___

SYRIA

The two nations are at odds over the civil war. Russia has shielded Syrian President Bashar Assad from international sanctions and provided him weapons, despite an international outcry.

The U.S. says Russia's support is allowing Assad to cling to power despite more than two years of violence which, according to United Nations estimates, already has killed 100,000 of his people.

The U.S. and Russia have agreed on the need for talks between Assad and the rebels in hopes of ending the war, and Secretary of State John Kerry and Russian Foreign Minister Sergey Lavrov have launched a joint initiative to try to get both sides to the negotiating table. The U.S. would like to see Russia do more to force Assad's hand. Kerry and Lavrov are to meet Friday in Washington.

___

MISSILE DEFENSE

Russians have a long-standing beef about the U.S. missile defense system planned for Europe, dating back to the Reagan administration's disputes with the Soviet Union. The Russians see the system as a threat to the viability of their own nuclear arsenal as a deterrent. American officials have always maintained that the missile defenses are meant to protect NATO allies and counter any threat from Iran.

Obama was denounced by Republican critics when in March 2012 he was caught, unaware that he was speaking into an open microphone, assuring Russia's then-president Dmitry Medvedev that he would have more flexibility on the issue once re-elected. Russia complains there's been little sign of movement on missile defense since Election Day.

___

HUMAN RIGHTS

Americans object to the way Russian leaders have tried to silence critical voices.

The White House said it was "deeply disappointed and concerned" when opposition leader Alexei Navalny was sentenced to five years in prison on embezzlement charges last month. A colorful blogger turned protest leader, Navalny challenged the Kremlin by exposing corruption, mocking Russian leaders and running for mayor of Moscow.

In April, the U.S. imposed financial sanctions on 18 Russians over human rights violations. The sanctions were sparked by the death in prison of a Russian lawyer, Sergei Magnitsky, who had accused police and officials of stealing $230 million in tax rebates. Officials accused of profiting from the scheme or persecuting Magnitsky were hit with sanctions.

U.S. leaders joined musicians and free speech advocates around the globe in denouncing the imprisonment last year of members of the punk rock band Pussy Riot. The three women were convicted of hooliganism after staging an anti-Putin protest inside a Russian Orthodox Church.

Putin bristles at the U.S. criticism.

___

ADOPTION

Putin signed a law last year banning U.S. adoptions of Russian children. The move was viewed within the U.S. as retaliation for the Magnitsky law that set in motion human rights sanctions against Russian officials.

___

CIVIL SOCIETY

After returning to the presidency last year, Putin has waged a campaign of harassment and intimidation against civil society groups, the non-governmental organizations that take up causes such as protecting human rights, helping immigrants, defending voters' rights or promoting environmental protection.

Russia also expelled the U.S. Agency for International Development, which had promoted democracy and civil societies in Russia for two decades.

The Kremlin accused USAID of using its $50 million annual budget to influence Russian politics and elections and weaken Putin's hold on power.

___

GAY RIGHTS

Violence against gays long has been a problem in Russia. Now the U.S. is criticizing Russia for an official crackdown on gay rights.

A new Russian law imposes fines and up to 15 days in prison for people accused of spreading "propaganda of nontraditional sexual relations" to minors. The law covers views expressed online or in the news media. And it bans gay pride rallies.

Russian officials say the law will be enforced during the 2014 Olympics in the city of Sochi.

Asked about that Tuesday on "The Tonight Show," Obama said he has "no patience" for countries that intimidate or harm people because of their sexual orientation.

Younger generation of doctors has more debt, shorter hours and better work/life balance

Dr. Lawrence Robinson is vice dean for clinical affairs and graduate medical education at the UW School of Medicine, in Seattle.

It?s not just another speech about walking uphill to school ? both ways ? in the snow: New doctors do have it different from their older colleagues.

And they want different things, too.

Physicians just graduating from medical school or embarking on their residencies will have shorter hours, bigger debt and more work/life balance than doctors who finished school in the 1970s, 1980s and 1990s.

?The only limit (in those days) was you could only work 168 hours per week, because that was all the hours there are in a week,? said Dr. Lawrence Robinson, vice dean for clinical affairs and graduate medical education at the UW School of Medicine. ?There was no limit ? in some cases people would work over 100 hours a week.?

New doctors have the stress of major loans, but they have more leverage for things like time off and regular hours because there is a smaller supply of doctors relative to demand, he said.

?The average medical student in the United States graduates with $150,000 worth of debt,? Robinson said. ?So they are worried about paying this all back by the end of their residency and when they go into practice.?

Medical schools and residencies aren?t producing enough physicians to meet the need, and with health insurance reform, more people will have access to care, further increasing the demand.

?The need for physicians is going up significantly in this country and in our region,? he said. ?The gap between how many physicians we think we?ll need and the number we think will really be available is widening over time.?

The changes started in the early 2000s, when new regulations placed a limit of 80 hours a week on residents' work schedules.
