I have a '99 Toyota Avalon XLS with 100k miles. The parking brake doesn't really work.?

It's a floor pedal parking brake and is supposedly "self-adjusting". When I push it down, it does have some holding power but goes to the floor very easily. When i mash it going about 20mph or so it doesn't lock up like it should, but just goes to the floor and the car eventually stops. I've tried to find a solution to tighten it on the major Toyota forums and with Google, but I cant find anything. Thanks to whoever answers my question.

mashing it at 20mph will only make it worse. The cable sounds like it has stretched or possibly the emergency brake shoes are worn out. look under the car and see if the cable is sagging a lot. If it's not pull the back wheel off then the rotor and check the pads, not the main brake pads but the one inside the rotor.

Defend Yourself! The Best Way to Hold Your Keys For Effective Self-Defense

Think you know how to hold your keys for self defense? Let me guess, you were told that you should hold them between your fingers - right? But, what if I told you that this was all wrong?!

What if I told you there was a much better way to hold your keys? What if I could prove that my way was better AND more versatile than the other way? Would you be interested?

Okay. I'm going to assume that, if you're still reading, you really do want to learn the best and, more importantly, most effective self defense skills. After all, when your learning self defense, it's not the same as buying a blender or a car, where if you find you bought something that didn't work, you can take it back.

If you find out that your self defense knowledge and skills are crap...

...you're going to be stuck in the middle of an attack!

NOT the place you want to be when you find out that everything you think you know about how to defend yourself - is all wrong!

So...what IS the best way to hold your keys for self defense? Would you believe...

...the very same way you hold them for normal, everyday use!

Sound too simple? Well, it's not.

Let's look at this a different way.

Have you ever tried to put your keys between your fingers like the so-called "experts" suggest? If you have, you know how much effort it can take to place, adjust, and hold the keys just right.

Try it. It's not easy. And, the more keys, fobs, and "doo-jiggies" you have hanging off of your key ring, the more difficult it becomes.

Now, let me ask you something.

Do you think it's going to be easier or more difficult to do this while he's rushing you, or after he's grabbed you from behind, or landed that first sucker punch?

Here's another question: "Have you ever tried this "conventional" method out on a real target? I don't mean on a human being, but on something that would allow you to make sure that this technique will really do the kind of damage you'll need to do against a brutal attacker who, if he's in fight mode, won't feel most of the shots that you land on him if they're not perfect?"

I promise that when you do, you'll see that holding a single key between your index finger and thumb - just like you hold it to put it in a lock - is much stronger, and will cause more damage than the retarded, between-the-fingers, method everybody thinks will work! Assuming, of course, that you can get them in that position - under pressure, stressed, and panicking - in the first place!
