The word "gerrymander" was coined in 1812 after Massachusetts governor Elbridge Gerry signed into law a salamander-shaped district.
Today, over two centuries later, "PARTISAN GERRYMANDERING—THE PRACTICE of drawing voting districts to give one political party an unfair edge—is one of the few political issues that voters of all stripes find common cause in condemning. Voters should choose their elected officials, the thinking goes, rather than elected officials choosing their voters."
But how do we measure gerrymandering? I suspect we share a common intuition that extreme imbalance in partisan makeup across districts is what we mean. But how do we measure "imbalance" and what is "extreme"?
2020 is just around the political corner so it is worth addressing these questions before we are forced to confront our ignorance.
Scientists - political, social, and computational - offer mathematical tools with which to measure gerrymandering and mathematically determine when partisan imbalance is intentional and egregious. Wired.com carries the research review in Gerrymandering is illegal, but only mathematics can prove it. (Above quotes and those that follow come from that report.)
The problem is that there is no such thing as a perfect map—every map will have some partisan effect. So how much is too much? …
… the current moment is perhaps the most auspicious one in decades for reining in partisan gerrymandering. New quantitative approaches—measures of how biased a map is, and algorithms that can create millions of alternative maps—could help set a concrete standard for how much gerrymandering is too much.
This is not merely an ivory tower exercise. There are real political and legal consequences of that research.
Last November, some of these new approaches helped convince a United States district court to invalidate the Wisconsin state assembly district map — the first time in more than 30 years that any federal court has struck down a map for being unconstitutionally partisan. That case is now bound for the Supreme Court.
"Will the Supreme Court say, 'Here is a fairness standard that we're willing to stand by?'" Cho said. "If it does, that's a big statement by the court."
Expect more of the same as the research matures.
So far, political and social scientists and lawyers have been leading the charge to bring quantitative measures of gerrymandering into the legal realm. But mathematicians may soon enter the fray. A workshop being held this summer at Tufts University on the "Geometry of Redistricting" will, among other things, train mathematicians to serve as expert witnesses in gerrymandering cases. The workshop has drawn more than 1,000 applicants.
Mathematicians may be able to help, but to truly make a difference, they will have to go beyond the simple models they've used in past papers and consider the full complexity of real-world constraints, Duchin said. The workshop's organizers "are absolutely, fundamentally motivated by being useful to this problem," she said. Because of the flood of interest, plans are afoot for several satellite workshops, to be held across the country over the coming year.
Ultimately, the workshop organizers hope to develop a deep bench of mathematicians with expertise in gerrymandering, to "get persuasive, well-armed mathematicians into these court conversations," Duchin said.
So what's the problem motivating these mathematicians? For example, one criterion for judging whether a map is biased is the extent to which its districts are compact. If a district looks like a lizard wrapped around a tree, chances are that it was drawn with partisan motivation.
… In an assortment of racial gerrymandering cases, the Supreme Court has "stated repeatedly … that crazy-looking shapes are an indicator of bad intent," …
… Chen and Rodden have used simulations … to suggest that Florida's 2012 congressional plan was almost surely intentionally gerrymandered. Their expert testimony contributed to the Florida Supreme Court's decision in 2015 to strike down eight of the plan's 27 districts.
"We didn't have this level of sophistication in simulation available a decade ago, which was the last major case on this topic before the [US Supreme] Court," said Bernard Grofman, a political scientist at the University of California, Irvine.
The Florida ruling was based on the state constitution, so its implications for other states are limited. But the Wisconsin case has "potential incredible precedent value," Grofman said.
Grofman has developed a five-pronged gerrymandering test that distills the key elements of the Wisconsin case. Three prongs are similar to those Stephanopoulos and McGhee have proposed: evidence of partisan bias, indications that the bias would likely endure for the whole decade, and the existence of at least one replacement plan that would remedy the existing plan's bias. To these, Grofman adds two more requirements: simulations showing that the plan is an extreme outlier, suggesting that the gerrymander was intentional, and evidence that the people who made the map knew they were drawing a much more biased plan than necessary.
You can expect to see more such mathematically-grounded reasoning here at home when Arizona redraws its map in 2020.
I've left out a lot of examples of the measurements being studied so dive in to the wired.com article. It's an easy read.

Tutorial: Use gravity forms to let users submit posts & display them in a table on your website
As the world's leading WordPress forms plugin, people use Gravity Forms in weird and wonderful ways. Today I'm going to show you how to use Gravity Forms to allow users to add information to your website and submit it to you. You'll learn how to automatically store the data as a WordPress post, WooCommerce product (or any other custom post type) and display the Gravity Forms entries in a table on the front end.
The end result will look something like this – a neat table listing your users' form submissions!
Sound a bit random? Well, you'd be surprised at just how many people contact us asking how to do this. Let's look at some examples.
Why display user-submitted information in the front end?
There are lots of reasons why you might want to let users submit information and then list it on your website:
- WordPress document library with user-submitted documents Lots of websites use a WordPress document library plugin to allow users to find and download documents. If you need a way for users to submit their own documents, then you can do this with Gravity Forms.
- WordPress member directory with user profiles If you're using a WordPress member directory plugin to list members or consultants in a table, then you might want to allow people to register and upload a profile. If you don't want to install a heavyweight membership or e-commerce plugin, then it can be simpler to use Gravity Forms for the member registration and profile upload.
- WordPress directory website If you're creating any type of directory, such as a business or local events directory, then it makes sense for users to submit listings. If you're trying to keep your website simple, then you can avoid installing a full directory theme or plugin by using Gravity Forms and a WordPress table plugin instead. You can even take payment via PayPal and hold submissions for moderation by the administrator before they're published!
- WooCommerce user-submitted products If you're using WooCommerce then you can let users submit products to sell in your store.
- User-submitted events If you're using a WordPress events plugin such as The Events Calendar, then your users can submit events to display on your website.
I'm sure there are also lots of reasons that I haven't come across yet. (I'd love to hear about your own use case in the comments below!) Whatever your reasons, I'm going to show you how to do it.
Case study – TV Production Contacts' Job Board
TVProductionContacts.com acts as a networking site for TV production professionals, it also hosts a WordPress job board listing jobs available in the industry.
The job board is powered by our Posts Table Pro plugin. The site also uses the Gravity Forms plugin and the Gravity Forms + Custom Post Types add-on to power the job board submission form.
Gravity Forms makes the job board simple to manage. Hiring managers submit all the job details using the form. The user-submitted information is then approved before being automatically displayed in the sortable job board.
Keep reading to find out how to create your own form for users to submit information to your site.
What to expect from this tutorial
This tutorial will teach you how to add the following features to any WordPress website. Read it all, or skip straight to the sections you need:
- Use Gravity Forms to collect user-submitted information
- Store the information as a WordPress post or custom post type
- Display the user-submitted data in a table on the front end of your website
Step 1 – Use Gravity Forms to collect user-submitted information
The first step is to install the Gravity Forms WordPress plugin and create a form. Your visitors will use this to submit information to you. This is useful whether you want them to upload a document, member profile, business listing, upcoming event, or something else.
- First, buy Gravity Forms, download the plugin and install it on your WordPress website (Plugins > Add New).
- You'll see a 'Forms' link appear in the left of the WordPress Dashboard. Navigate to Forms > Add New.
- Enter a name for your form, then add all the fields. (If you haven't done this before, please see the official documentation.) If you want users to be able to upload documents via Gravity Forms, use the 'File Upload' field type.
- Click 'Update' to save your form.
- Next, create a page (Pages → Add New) and click the 'Add Form' button above the WordPress toolbar if you're using the Classic Editor, or use a Gutenberg block if you're using Gutenberg. Select the form you just created and insert it into the page. You can also add other content to the page:
- Finally, view the page and make sure you're happy with it.
Your user-submitted content page should look something like this:
Optional – hide and protect your Gravity Forms page
Some people use Gravity Forms to collect user-submitted content from specific people only. You can do this by protecting the page containing the form.
The simplest way to secure the Gravity Forms page is to password protect it. If you're using an SEO plugin (e.g. Yoast SEO), then you can also use this to noindex the page. This will ensure it is hidden from search engines.
Step 2 – Store the information as a WordPress post or custom post type
So far, you've learned how to use Gravity Forms to create a form that users can use to submit information to you. It looks pretty, but it's not much use yet! At this stage, the information will be emailed to you and stored in the WordPress database. In Step 2, I'll show you how to automatically use this user-submitted data to create WordPress posts, WooCommerce products, and custom posts. This saves you having to manually input the data to your website.
How to use Gravity Forms to save user-submitted information as a WordPress post
Gravity Wiz have an excellent tutorial about how to save Gravity Forms submissions as posts. Do this, then come back to learn how to display the user-submitted content in a table on the front end.
When you follow the Gravity Wiz tutorial, don't forget to set the 'Status' to draft. This is essential if you want to hold the form submissions for moderation for an administrator to approve before they're published.
How to use Gravity Forms to create a custom post
Storing user-submitted information as normal WordPress posts is fine, but it can clutter up your blog. It's normally better to create a dedicated custom post type for this. For example, if you're creating user-submitted business listings then you can create a 'Business Listings' custom post type. This will add a 'Business Listings' link to the left of the WordPress Dashboard. It's a convenient way to organize the listings, separate from your other website content.
You'll also need to do this if you want to store Gravity Forms entries in a post type created by another plugin. This might be the 'products' post type created by WooCommerce, the 'tribe_events' post type created by the Events Calendar plugin, or any other custom post type.
You'll need a free plugin called Gravity Forms + Custom Post Types for this:
- Get the plugin and install it on your WordPress site.
- If you don't already a custom post type for this purpose, create one now. I recommend the free Pods plugin for this. For full instructions, please see my tutorial about how to create a custom post type, then return here and continue this tutorial.
- Use the how-to instructions on the plugin page to map your form fields to the custom post type.
Step 3 – Display user-submitted data in a table on the front end
So far, you've learned how to use Gravity Forms to let users submit information via your website and save it as a post or custom post type. The next step is to display the user submitted posts on the front end of your WordPress site. You'll need our Posts Table Pro plugin for this (or WooCommerce Product Table if you're displaying user-submitted WooCommerce products).
Posts Table Pro is a WordPress table plugin designed to list posts and other post types in a searchable, filterable table view. It's the perfect way to display user-submitted information because each entry is listed in a separate row of the table. Visitors to your website can use the search box to find specific entries, use the filters to refine the list, and sort by any column.
How to list user-submitted content in WordPress
- Get Posts Table Pro and install it on your WordPress website.
- Copy your license key from the confirmation page, then enter it on Settings > Posts Table Pro.
- Stay on the settings page, and spend a minute choosing how you want your tables to look and behave.
- Next, create a new page. You'll use this to list the user-submitted content from Gravity Forms. Click the 'Insert Posts Table' toolbar button. This will add the shortcode
[posts_table]to the page.
Finally, view the page. You'll see all your posts or custom posts (depending on which post type you selected on the plugin settings page) listed in a table on the front end. This is the information that your users have submitted using Gravity Forms. Perfect!
Choosing which posts to display
You may wish to add multiple tables to your site, each containing different posts or custom posts. For example, if you're building a WordPress business directory then you might want to add a table listing posts from a different category on each page.
Fortunately, Posts Table Pro comes with several options for choosing which user-submitted content is listed in the table. You can read about them all here.
Can users edit posts after submitting them?
Yes, there are two ways that you can allow users to edit the information in the table:
- Use Posts Table Pro with a front end spreadsheet editor plugin. Add an 'Edit' link above or below the table. Logged in users with the correct role can click this to access a front end spreadsheet editor, which allows them to edit the content of the table. They then save their changes and return to the main table. (Read tutorial.)
- Install a WordPress front-end editor plugin such as Editus. People can click through to the single post or document page on your website and edit the information from there. This is important because they can't edit the content from within the Posts Table Pro table itself. On the single post or document page, they can edit the content as required.
Can I display Gravity Forms entries on the front end without creating a post?
The Posts Table Pro plugin can only display posts or custom post types. Gravity Forms stores form submissions in a separate database field which you can't list directly in a table with Posts Table Pro.
That's why you need to follow the above instructions to automatically save the data as a post or custom post type, and then display these entries on the front end.
Where to get the plugins
That brings us to the end of our tutorial. You've learned how to use Gravity Forms to allow users to upload information to your website and save it as a post or custom post type. You know how to hold these posts for moderation so that they're not published until an administrator approves them. You've discovered the best way to display this information in a table on the front end of your WordPress website. It's the perfect way to create a user-contributed document library, member directory or business listings.
To set it up, you'll need:
- Gravity Forms – to collect the information from your users.
- Gravity Forms + Custom Post Types – to save the information as a custom post type in WordPress.
- Posts Table Pro – to display the information on your website.
I'd love to hear about how you use Gravity Forms for user-submitted content. Do you keep this private or list it on the front end of your website? What sort of data do you collect and display? Please let me know in the comments below.

A new national survey of seniors has found that fewer than one-third (28%) of those who use an advisor say they discuss Medicare plans. That is likely a mistake; of those seniors who reported they do discuss Medicare with their advisor, 79% reported their advisor was "knowledgeable or extremely knowledgeable" about the federal insurance program.
The information was released as part of a larger survey of seniors who are enrolled in Medicare. The study, the Allsup Medicare Advisor® Seniors Survey: Seniors with Financial Planners, was commissioned by Allsup and conducted by Richard Day Research, a Market Probe company based in Evanston, Ill.
Allsup is a nationwide provider of Social Security disability, Medicare and Medicare Secondary Payer compliance services for individuals, employers and insurance carriers.
The study also found that although 71% of seniors with financial advisors said they will review their income and expenses in the next 12 months, only 58% plan to review their health care needs during that time. However, the study notes that Medicare's annual enrollment season, when all seniors can change plans for 2013, begins Oct. 15 and lasts through Dec. 7.
Mary Dale Walters, senior vice president of the Allsup Medicare Advisor, a Medicare plan selection service for Medicare-eligible individuals, noted in a statement that Allsup's survey of seniors with advisors "found that while only a small number discuss Medicare with their advisors, three of their five major concerns relate to health care and Medicare."
The top concerns cited by respondents were of Medicare's future (60%), having enough money in retirement (53%), paying for long-term care (44%), paying for health care (41%) and outliving their money (40%).
"Financial and retirement planning professionals have a tremendous opportunity to assist their senior clients with Medicare plans and healthcare choices by helping them realize and prepare for the cost-related results of their decisions," Walters added.
The survey found that seniors with advisors are more likely to save specifically for health care expenses than seniors without advisors, 41% vs. 27%, and are more confident in their health care savings, 70% vs. 58%. Of 1,000 seniors surveyed across the country, one-third reported using a financial planning professional for retirement planning.

I bought this for my BF for when I am work away. Also as a bit of fun for when I am there too.
Feels amazing and does the job very well. He didn't complain once.
Slightly cold at first to the touch, but your body temperature soon changes that when you start using it.
He loves it. No doubt will get plenty of use out of it.
Makes air suction noises, so not silent.

I've seen Fleshlights advertised but finally decided to give this one a try. I don't think I'd ever go back to traditional masturbation again, if you even think you'd like this, get it!

One Butt to rule them all
Reviewed: 26 September 2018 by LIL_KNOWN69
Fleshlight's are the biggest sex toy for men on the market and the reason is simple, they are possibly the closest to a real experience your going to get. Whether you want to spend the night with your favourite porn starlet or maybe you want to try the Freak collection and try a vampire butt or vagina then they have you covered. The Fleshlight girls are moulded directly from the stars themselves with excellent detail and internal textures will blow your mind. I absolutely adore Stoya and as soon as I saw she was added to the list I knew I had to get one as soon as possible.
The package arrived safely, discreet and in time which Lovehoney always manage to do time after time. I opened the brown box to find the product inside. A large white rectangle with Stoya standing seductively on the side and the details of the toy on the other side. A large plastic window shows the pearlescent product in all its glory which I couldn't wait to test. I opened the box by sliding the outer sleeve off and breaking the tamper tape which is great because this shows the toy hasn't been touched since the factory. Inside the toy is held securely with a cardboard square and you receive the following:
1 x Stoya Butt Fleshlight
1 x sample of Fleshlube
1 x leaflet with all the products Fleshlight sell
One thing I love about the fleshlight brand is they give a sample of lube with the toy, this is quite rare and even though its only a small sachet its enough to experience the toy in the best possible way.
After the grand reveal, I decided to get comfortable with the toy, it simply looks like a large flashlight and you twist the cap off the top to reveal the entrance and a second cap at the bottom allows you to control the pressure. By simply twisting the base cape tighter you restrict airflow into the shaft and the suction becomes greater to make everything feel tighter and squeezes harder and if you loosen the cap it becomes a lot less intense. Ensure you lube both the toy and yourself before to give you the best possible experience as it can be tight. Also, make sure you remove the plastic rod in the centre of the toy! They don't explain this but its to keep everything in place during transit and will harm the user if it's not removed.
So, did Stoya live up to expectations and did her name deserve to be on the toy? short answer is Yes! 100 per cent this was possibly the best Fleshlight I have used. The details in the mould of her butt and vagina are beyond realistic and usually, these toys tend to just have the butt in the centre of the toy and nothing else, but they actually had a little bit of her vagina at the bottom as a detail which added to the overall realistic experience. The smell of the toy was almost sweet and doesn't smell chemical at all which is a bonus.
While handling the toy I found the product was heavy but the flesh was thicker than the others which I have used, which made everything feel tighter. After applying a little of the fleshlube I found it became very slippery and even sliding a finger in felt real. My partner had a lot of fun playing with it and seeing how much it stretched which was actually quite far, so this should cater for all men of all sizes, even the most well endowed will find this a comfortable fit. I applied some lubricant to myself and entered the toy, the way in which it pulled me in and stretched around me looked and felt real, and just the visual side alone was amazing. Inside the canal is full of ridges, bumps and little nodules to tickle and tease you into submission and give you the ride of your life. Whether you lay back and take Stoya reverse cowgirl or get on your knees and take the toy doggy style it really is incredible and worth every penny. Just to clarify the outside is moulded directly from the star herself but the inside is not. The length of the toy is 9 inches in length so will be suitable for most penises unless you're over this in which case you can remove the cap at the bottom.
The toy holds temperature well and you can remove the sleeve for both cleaning and also to leave in some warm water to heat it up for added realism. Cleaning is also simple and all you need to do after a session is to remove the internal sleeve and give this a wash under warm water and some sex toy cleaner or a little soap. Make sure you pat the toy completely dry and if you have a small hand towel this is excellent to dry the internal of the sleeve, if water is left it can go stale or build mould so make sure this is dry before you put the toy away, and if you want to keep the toy as new it may be worth purchasing some sex toy reviver or cornstarch to sprinkle a thin layer on top and keep it feeling fresh and soft. This truly is an excellent toy and feels incredible, I have never felt such an intense and Stoya is now the top of the list for when I need some time alone.
- Pros
- Quality, sensation and the design is beyond anything I have ever used
- Cons
- Nothing to dislike
- Bottom line
- The most realistic anal experience you can have alone

Due to the silicone soft plastic on it, it also gets sticky to the touch.

Credits go to @sturmen who invented this mod and did the core work
Unlike his releases, screenshotting is no longer reportet. We came to the agreement that there are too many unofficial versions out there with the sceenshot reporting disabled, but potentially containing malware. So we thought it'd be safer for all to finally start releasing the mod without the reporting.
This Xposed module saves all images and videos upon opening to the keepchat folder on your SD card. It uses the Xposed framework to hook into the Snapchat app and do the magic. Because it uses the Xposed framework, it is device and rom independent

- 1.4.2 Fixed version that works with the newest Snapchat 3.0.5 (2013-08-21). Internal code improvements.
- 1.4.1 Fixed double saving of image file. Now viewing a snap more than once in the few seconds it is viewable doesn't cause the image to be overwritten by itself any more.
- 1.4 Media scanner support added. Thanks to @toringerottum from github.

One of my fabulous clients told me about this concept, and I thought it was so amazing that I had to share it with everyone!
When trying to create a new habit or kick an old naughty one, it takes a great amount of will power and determination to succeed. Wouldn't you agree? Well, with the Power of 3 you can totally do whatever it is you are attempting.
Whenever you have the urge to go back to your bad habit or to skip a new one tell yourself "I can wait 3 minutes." In 3 minutes that intense initial urge will have passed, and you can move on.
Examples1: "I will not eat that cookie at the office. I'll set my timer for 3 minutes. . . By the time it beeped I had forgotten why I set it."
Example2: "I don't feel like running today. I'll just do 3 minutes. Well if I've made it for 3 minutes I can do 30 minutes!" (I wouldn't jump to doing this one for 3 hours)
Then tell yourself you can make it 3 days without it, or 3 days a week of doing it.
Then set your goal at 3 weeks and before you know it you have broken through each barrier and become stronger with each 3 minutes, 3 hours, 3 days, and 3 weeks!
Try it and let me know how it works.

When you speak about vegetarians and grilling, too often tofu dogs or packaged veggie burgers get brought into the discussion. You won't need a recipe for this, as you can put any fruit you like into a fruit salad, but I like to make my Christmas 1 a little bit special by using colourful and seasonal fruits such as red and green grapes, strawberries, kiwi fruit, pineapple and clementines, along with cranberry juice and a splash of sweet white dessert wine in the syrup.
Curries are impressive and even non-vegetarians will enjoy a spicy curry filled with vegetables. A substance with a sponge-like texture, TVP is offered either cut into small chunks or ground into granules which resemble minced beef, and can be flavoured to resemble meat. I like the thought of making use of roasting vegetables: I am a huge enjoyable of roasting vegetables to bring out their flavor.
I will be adding recipes and linking them right here but these days, I want to let you know about the appliance itself and how useful it can be – even for vegetarians! If you never eat meat, never be put off by the pictures – scroll down to find out for about why these products are wonderful for vegetarians and vegans. There are all types of juicy grilled vegetables recipe suggestions you can feel about if you are cooking for vegetarians.
Instant vegetable gravy granules are readily accessible, which might be less complicated if you want to make a meaty gravy as properly, or you can make your personal vegetarian gravy (recipe under), which can be utilised on either meat or vegetarian dinners, but once more vegetarians will not thank you for producing a gravy making use of the meat juices. Bean curd sheets created from soy resembling tofu, yakinori or roasted seaweed, and wheat gluten (which is higher in protein and is a great meat substitute).
These fluids don't mix effectively and the result's that your meals can hold in your abdomen for a quantity of hours longer than it must – even rotting inside you and letting off toxins, not to point out inflicting weight achieve. But we all know that steaming is a fantastic way to prepare vegetables and this tiny machine does the job beautifully. Prepare meals with vegetables subtly included to make little ones get pleasure from consuming vegetables. Uncooked nuts are a quite good supply of protein which also contain oils that may possibly give assist to lose weight or deal with diverse physical troubles.

If there is a budding vegetarian in your life (or any individual who could stand to find out how to cook a handful of far more vegetables), ge Holy smokes, this is a really comprehensive cookbook, possibly the most comprehensive cookbook I've each observed.

12.04.14 - Nostradamus Issues A Stark Warning About The Impending Economic Collapse
12.03.14 - Is ISIS The Beginning of World War Three
11.11.14 - Did Nostradamus Predict Ebola? Nostradamus Ebola Prediction
December 21, 2012
This innocuous date, usually associated with the winter solstice, has become synonymous with hysteria. It is said to be the date when we see the end of the world. It is a date that is linked with the dawn of a new age, when Earthlings will reach heightened levels of consciousness. It is a date nobody knows what will happen – if anything at all.
The date on everybody's lips and red-ringed in our mental calendars stems from the date the Mayan Long Count calendar ends. It has subsequently fuelled a raging furnace of media speculation. Why does the Mayan calendar end on 21.12.12? There are many theories ranging from World War III and a nuclear holocaust to dreams of a heightened sense of spiritual awareness which will bring an enlightened age of peace and harmony into the world. Which do you think is most likely?
The only fact that can be confirmed about 21 December 2012 is it is the date of the winter solstice. We know this because it happens every year. Astronomers tell us the significant difference between the 2012 solstice from most other previous winter solstices is that in 2012 the planets of the solar system will be aligned in a straight formation with the sun straight down the centre of the Milky Way. This cosmic event could prove to be the undoing of our planet and the world as we know it. What that change will be is yet to be seen.
In the meantime we can ask questions and speculate. Yet this is no small question. Quite the contrary, it deals with some of the larger concepts in the universe. From a metaphysical perspective, the world recreates itself every instant. December 21, 2012 completes the zodiac cycle that began in 1996, the change from the Age of Pisces to the Age of Aquarius. For the Mayan and the Hopi it completes the passing from the 4th world to the 5th world.
From a cosmic perspective, understanding the nature of how the planetary alignment on 21 December 2012 will affect our planet cannot be predicted. So people look elsewhere in search for answers. They look at the predictions of the Hopi Indians of the Arizona region in southwest America who tell us the signs of ancient prophecies predicting the end of times are evident in today's world. They look at world affairs and fear the world leaders are guiding us along a crumbling precipice. They turn to the quatrains of Nostradamus and allege his prophecies are unfolding.
The simple answer is that every one of the scenarios put forward has some foundation of truth. Anyone of them could be real. All of them could be wrong. But in the meantime it has us all gripped like a psychological thriller or an Agatha Christie type whodunit. We are compelled to keep reading and just have to keep guessing. The need for answers is part of human desire. And 2012 has got us gripped tighter than the plot of any book, film or play. And the stories will continue to be told.
But what if you could tell your own story. What will happen to you on 21.12.2012? Imagine if you will that you are in a vast central train station. The tracks are arranged like the spokes of a giant wheel, each moving away from the center in a different direction. The trains are all scheduled to depart at the same moment. You and every other human being on Earth are at the station; free to board any train you want.
Now that you know where you will be on the day the world ends, you get to decide which train you'd like to ride. There is still time (according to the calendars of this illusion) before the trains must leave the station. Plenty of time for you to decide what you want to happen and be the God you already are. The choice, as always, is yours.

While chatting beside his "Deadpool" food truck, Ryan revealed how his daughter James reacted to seeing him in his character makeup. "She wept and cried when she saw my makeup… she sees her father and what sounds like her father, but what looks like a deep fried testicle... so that's alarming for a 1-year-old.
Reynolds also praised his wife Blake's parenting skills, saying she's the faster diaper changer. "My wife can do it when the baby's running, which is spectacular… she's the David Copperfield of bodily functions."
Circling back to "Deadpool," AJ asked if Hugh Jackman will make an appearance as Wolverine.
"I'm not giving that away… he will orbit that movie, I'll give you that much."
He also gushed about Jackman, saying, "Honestly you cannot find a better ambassador for not only Hollywood, [but] for the superhero genre… he is a legend, he's my hero as well, he's a great guy."
Reynolds' food truck stint comes just after he got caught with wife Blake trying to sneak apple pies across the border into Vancouver.
"I don't know that it's illegal, I just didn't mention it to the border patrol," he said, joking, "Look I am an actor, you should be happy I'm not smuggling methamphetamine. I mean, half of my peers are high on that."
"Deadpool" opens nationwide Feb. 12.

Benjamin Woo, 1923-2008: Unsung hero championed museum, preservation
As a boy, Benjamin Woo survived the Japanese invasion of the Shanghai area of China and helped his parents at the family's Queen Anne laundry business.
Woo, a thoughtful man, never studied architecture formally, but passed a qualifying exam to become an architect on his first try. He later designed the King County Fairgrounds.
He served as a King County construction director, loved studying mushrooms and always remembered his roots in Seattle's Asian-American community.
The 84-year-old Mount Baker resident died Friday from heart failure, his family said. His wife, Ruth Woo, whom he married in 1975, is a political activist.
News of his passing ricocheted throughout the city's Asian-American community during Lunar New Year celebrations over the weekend.
"He lived a very rich life," said son Roger Woo, 54, of New York. "He definitely cared about his community. We all looked up to him."
Seattle resident Ark Chin, a friend since 1946, called Woo a genius and an "unsung hero."
"He has done innumerable things that he didn't talk about," Chin said. "But he contributed to the success of many organizations."
Among them: The Wing Luke Asian Museum, Kin On Health Care Center and the Seattle Chinatown International District Preservation and Development Authority. He also played a key role in the Puget Sound Mycological Society and became an expert on the Russula mushroom.
Woo was born in Seattle on June 15, 1923. His father moved to Seattle from the Toisan area of southern China searching for a better life, his son said.
When he was 8, his family returned to that country and bought property outside Shanghai, but a Chinese warlord fighting the Japanese eventually commandeered the family house as his headquarters. The Woo family fled to Shanghai's French Quarter, before returning to Seattle in 1932.
On Queen Anne, the family started the Sun Woo Kee laundry. In Cantonese, the name means the "New Woo Establishment," Roger Woo said.
Benjamin Woo relearned English and attended Warren Avenue Elementary School. Before he enrolled at the University of Washington to study engineering, he served in the U.S. Army as a meteorologist in the 1940s.
After his graduation, he started his own architecture firm, but later left the firm to help the Seattle Chinatown International District Preservation Development Authority renovate the Bush Hotel, an affordable housing project.
For years, social service groups have used parts of that hotel for events for the Asian elderly and immigrants.
"He is somebody who crossed a lot of boundaries," said Ron Chew, a Seattle writer. "He worked in the mainstream, but he never forgot his roots in the Chinatown and Asian-American communities."
Bob Santos, a longtime Seattle activist, recalled how Woo participated in a 1970s demonstration against the building of the Kingdome. Activists, who were concerned about encroachment from the stadium, were pleased to see Woo marching with them.
"He was always there for us. Anytime there was a crisis in the International District ... I would consult Ben," Santos said.
In 1995, Woo retired from his job as director of the county's construction and facilities management department, but remained active into his 80s, his son said. He only stopped skiing a few years ago because his legs felt weak. Last year, he toured France on a mushroom foray.
His family will spread his ashes across one of his favorite Northwest mushroom spots.
He and Ruth Woo never had children together, but he considered her two children and his five from a previous marriage to be part of the same family.
Ben Woo is survived by his wife; her children, Teresa Yoneyama of West Seattle and Janice Leonard of Long Beach, Wash.; his children, Teresa Murray of Los Angeles, John Woo of New York City, Jeffrey Woo of San Francisco, Roger Woo of Long Island, N.Y., and Philip Woo of Tokyo; and 11 grandchildren.
While there will be no public memorial for Woo, remembrances can be sent to The Wing Luke Asian Museum, 407 Seventh Ave. S., Seattle, WA 98104, or to the Ben Woo Scholarship at the Puget Sound Mycological Society, UW Center for Urban Horticulture, P.O. Box 354115, Seattle, WA 98195.

ENGLAND'S tour to Zimbabwe has been given the final all clear after weeks of uncertainty following lengthy talks between the two sets of authorities.
The tour, which is due to begin next week and will comprise five one-day internationals, had been put in doubt because of the political uncertainty in the country.
A further obstacle has been the reluctance of the Zimbabwean government to grant accreditation to the travelling media, in particular the BBC following their reports of the unrest in the country.
But following talks between the England and Wales Cricket Board, who were reluctant to continue with the tour unless all English media were given accreditation, and the Zimbabwean Cricket Union, work permits have been issued to all applicants.
"This has been a long process, but we're delighted the Zimbabwe Cricket Union have now agreed to allow all the media to enter the country to cover the tour," explained Tim Lamb, the ECB's chief executive.

Then you can compare the various lawyers after your consultations.
At the initial consultation, you will go over the details of your accident to determine the strength of a potential lawsuit. It is also the time you will figure out whether the lawyer in question is qualified to represent you.
We have listed many questions below, but do not feel obligated to ask every one of them. It is best to hone in on the ones that apply to you and start there. And though these inquiries are detailed, this list does not cover everything you may want to know. You may think of an even better or more relevant question to ask when hiring a motorcycle accident attorney in St. Petersburg. Do not be afraid to ask! You should feel comfortable with your lawyer and being unafraid to ask questions is important.
Prior Experience
It is best to start this initial meeting by asking your potential motorcycle accident attorney about their background, legal skills, and professional experience. Questions you may want to ask include:
- How long have you been a lawyer?
- Where did you attend school and where did you get your undergraduate degree from? When did you graduate from university?
- How many motorcycle accident victims do you represent each year, on average?
- Are you a member of any professional organizations or bar associations? If so, which ones?
- How long have you been practicing in the St. Petersburg area?
Legal Philosophy
You will want to inquire into each attorney's approach to practicing law. Several questions you could ask along those lines are:
- How would you describe your style as a lawyer?
- What is your preferred method of working with clients? Will you present me with options and allow me to choose, or will you be stricter in your guidance, pointing me in the right direction based on your professional experience?
- What is your philosophy or approach in handling motorcycle accident cases?
Assessing Your Case
You will want to ask each motorcycle accident attorney you interview what their opinion of your case is and whether they think it will be successful. Potential questions to ask include:
- What kind of settlement should I expect to receive?
- What is your overall assessment of my case?
- Do you foresee any potential roadblocks that may delay or affect the outcome of my case?
- How likely is my case to go to trial?
- What percent of your cases go to trial each year in St. Petersburg or elsewhere? What percent do you settle?
- Approximately how long do you think it will take for my case to be resolved?
- Is arbitration or mediation an option?
Case Management
If you have made it this far in the questioning and you think the lawyer you are interviewing is a strong candidate, then you can move onto questions about case management. Relevant questions include:
- First and foremost, are you available to represent me, given the timing of my case?
- Will another motorcycle accident attorney manage my case or will you handle it personally?
- Will any other lawyers work on my case? If so, what will their role be?
- Will you personally handle court appearances and negotiations?
- Who will be my day-to-day contact?
- What is your preferred way to communicate? Should I expect an immediate response?
- Will you provide progress reports? If so, how frequently, and what will be included?
Legal Fees and Expenses
Though most personal injury lawyers in St. Petersburg (and elsewhere) work on a contingency basis, it is still a good idea to make sure this is the case before signing anything. Questions to ask to help determine the estimated cost of your case include:
- Will I have to pay you anything if we lose the case or do not get a settlement?
- How are you compensated for your time?
- Do you require retainer fees?
- Can you run the approximate numbers so I have a visual representation of what to expect after legal costs and expenses are factored in? If we go to trial, what should I expect to receive financially?
Hiring A St. Petersburg Motorcycle Accident Attorney
After you have met with each lawyer, it is time to choose which one will represent you. Here are some final questions that will help narrow down your decision:
- Which attorney has the best-proposed strategy?
- Are the expected expenses and legal fees reasonable?
- Which attorney has the specific skills and experience to best handle my case?
- Is each lawyer's estimated award realistic?
- Which motorcycle accident attorney will I feel most comfortable working with, and which one do I trust the most?
Hopefully, these questions help guide you through the process of finding the best legal assistance. However, what it boils down to is choosing the St. Petersburg lawyer that you are most comfortable with.
To make the search even easier, contact the legal professionals at K LAW, PLLC in St. Petersburg at (727) 201-8444 for a professional and experienced motorcycle accident attorney.

Rival carriers Verizon Wireless, AT&T and T-Mobile will be working together to create a "national commerce network that aims to fundamentally transform how people shop, pay and save," the three announced Nov. 16.
The venture, called Isis, relies on smartphones and NFC (near-field communications), which uses short-range, high-frequency wireless technology to pass encrypted information between devices. In countries such as Japan, consumers have used such a service-which essentially turns one's smartphone into a wallet-for several years now.
Michael Abbott, formerly with GE Capital, has been tapped to lead Isis, which is expected to roll out its service to "key geographic markets" over the next 18 months.
"Our mobile commerce network, through relationships with merchants, will provide an enhanced, more convenient, more personalized shopping experience for consumers," Abbott said in a statement. "While mobile payments will be at the core of our offering, it is only the start. We plan to create a mobile wallet that ultimately eliminates the need for consumers to carry cash, credit and debit cards, reward cards, coupons, tickets and transit passes."
Further reading
Between them, AT&T, T-Mobile and Verizon offer wireless service to more than 200 million customers, who will have access to Isis. Currently, Isis is working with Discover Financial Services' payment network to develop an infrastructure for the program. Barclaycard US is expected to be the first issuer on the Isis network, offering mobile payment products.
"We believe the venture will have the scope and scale necessary to introduce mobile commerce on a broad basis," said Abbott. "In the beginning, we intend to fully utilize Discover's national payment infrastructure as well as Barclaycard's expertise in contactless and mobile payments. Moving forward, Isis will be available to all interested merchants, banks and mobile carriers."
The day before the Isis announcement, Google CEO Eric Schmidt-while showing off a device expected to be the Nexus S at the Web 2.0 Summit in San Francisco-explained that Android 2.3, or "Gingerbread," will leverage NFC technology, working with an embedded chip in the phone and a mobile application.
"The theory of the case is that you'll be able to take these mobile devices from everybody, and you'll be able to walk into a store and do commerce and be able to figure out where you are, again with your permission," Schmidt said. "It could eventually literally replace your credit card."
He added that NFC uses a higher level of authentication than the traditional credit card magnetic stripe, making it more secure.
Google competitor Apple is also preparing to get in on the action, and in August hired an NFC expert as its new product manger for mobile commerce, as well as published a number of NFC-related patents over the summer. In addition, Nokia-no stranger to NFC, having launched a trial NFC payment plan in China in 2006, among other efforts-plans to push out an upgrade to its Symbian 3-running C7 smartphone in early 2011, enabling the device to handle NFC tag reading, Near Field Communications World reported Nov. 14, citing the French site Teknologik.
"Any time major industry players agree on a step forward, it's a great step for all involved, especially consumers," Nokia spokesperson Joseph Gallo told eWEEK. "In this case, with regard to NFC, it adds further value to the handset and ultimately the consumer, by allowing access to new services and digital content on their mobile easily and conveniently."
The ability to easily share content such as business cards and photos, or to use an NFC mobile device as a travel card, ticket or loyalty card, Gallo explained, "adds to the consumer's emotional attachment to the device."
Bling Nation, a company that uses contactless stickers, called Bling Tags, on the back of mobile phones, has recently been running a mobile payment trial with PayPal and will roll out its solution in early 2011, Forbes reported Nov. 15. The Bling technology is compatible with NFC technology, and so will work with NFC phones, Forbes reports, adding that the company is currently in negotiations with handset manufacturers to incorporate the technology directly into their handsets.
Isis, effective as of Nov. 16, will be based in New York.

Helen Beatrix Potter (1866-1943) is well-known for her children's books (with characters such as Peter Rabbit and Jemima Puddle-Duck), but few know that the acclaimed children's book author was also a mycologist and conservationist. Potter spent a portion of her life producing several hundred paintings of mushrooms, boletes, jelly fungi, and others, studying them microscopically and drawing what she saw while looking under the microscope.
Her curiosity led her to experiment with spore germination and develop her own theory. With the help of her uncle, Sir Henry Enfield Roscoe, a chemist and vice chancellor of the University of London, she consulted with botanists at Kew Gardens, convincing George Massee of her ability to germinate spores and her theory of hybridization.
Rebuffed by many botanists of the day, because of her gender and her amateur status, Beatrix wrote up her conclusions and submitted a paper On the Germination of the Spores of the Agaricineae to the Linnean Society of London in 1897. It was introduced by Massee because, as a female, Potter could not attend proceedings or read her paper. She subsequently withdrew it but continued her microscopic studies for several more years.
Potter later gave her mycological drawings and scientific drawings to the Armitt Museum and Library in Ambleside where mycologists still refer to them to identify fungi. In 1967 the mycologist W.P.K. Findlay included many of Potter's beautifully accurate fungus drawings in his book Wayside & Woodland Fungi, thereby fulfilling her desire to one day have her fungus drawings published in a book. In 1997 the Linnean Society issued a posthumous apology to Potter for the sexism displayed in its handling of her research.
Of course, Beatrix Potter was destined to be known not for her mycological drawings but for something quite different:
"And so it was that on 4 September, the very day after discovering the rare pine cone fungus, Beatrix sat down in the sunshine on the lawn of Eastwood and wrote a picture letter about a disobedient young rabbit called 'Peter'. 'I don't know what to write to you … so I shall tell you a story about four little rabbits whose names were Flopsy, Mopsy, Cottontail, and Peter.'" — from Beatrix Potter: A Life in Nature by Linda Lear.

The saddest press room ever
For the most part SXSW is pretty cool, certainly more fun than CES. (CES is a long, hard slog compared to SXSW.) Lots of like-minded people converging on a fairly small city with the goal of networking their way into the next Web 2.0 success story. Good luck with that is all I have to say.
That's not to say the show doesn't have its share of glitches or things that simply annoy me. Take the press room, pictured here. First, it's pretty damn small; CES' was significantly better. Most crippling to the bloggers and journalists here is the poor Wi-Fi connectivity. There's two networks set up here and both are atrocious. Speed isn't even the primary problem, but simply getting connected at all. There's speculation that the show's organizers didn't anticipate the number of Wi-Fi users, but that seems impossible. It is a tech show, after all (at least the part I'm attending). And if you do get a conection be prepred for worse-than-dial-up speeds. Uploading photos at certain times of the day is literally impossible. (The early morning seems to be the worst time to try to connect.)
Another gripe of mine is all this talk about Twitter . You can't walk down the hall or about the show floor without someone saying, "Oh, did you see what so-and-so said on Twitter?" Who cares? That's just my own mania talking, but it had to be said. Twitter is silly.
The Wi-Fi issue is one that actually impacts people's ability to do their job. It's bad,

text: Standing our Ground with Aiki jiu jitsu Apologetics Standing Our Ground There are three components to standing our ground for the Christian World View. 1) Prepare our children for the onslaught of intellectual predators. 2) Strengthen and maintain the faith of all believers through reason. 3) Build a bridge to those on the "other side" with the reasons for our faith. There are two methods for standing our ground for the Christian World View. 1) Aiki jiu jitsu Apologetics 2) Taekwondo Apologetics Aiki jiu jitsu Apologetics "Always be prepared to Give an Answer to everyone who asks you to give a reason for the hope that you have." 1 Peter 3:15 Taekwondo Apologetics "We demolish arguments and every pretension that sets itself up against the knowledge of God, and we take captive every thought to make it obedient to Christ." 2 Corinthians 10 1 Peter 3:15 is the nice approach. If someone "ASKS YOU to give a reason for the hope that you have" naturally it's apropos to respond with "GENTLENESS AND RESPECT". But if I come after you or your children with an intellectual baseball bat with intent of bodily harm are you going to respond with "gentleness and respect"? It doesn't apply does it? I think Paul addresses this well in 2 Corinthians 10 when he says "DEMOLISH ARGUMENTS" and "TAKE CAPTIVE EVERY THOUGHT" In Taekwondo the best defense is a good offense. Simple and straightforward: block and counter. It is the most effective Martial Arts strategy for beginners because it is simple and direct. It gives beginners tools they can use now. When practiced and practiced and practiced they become second nature, enabling swift defense to unprovoked attacks. Aiki jiu jitsu is the most powerful of all martial arts but very difficult to learn, involving a lifetime of dedicated study and practice to master. It can deactivate a threat without injury to the opponent, or… well, you know. It does not require physical strength to overcome a strong adversary. A doddering old man can incapacitate a young man in the prime of life. Unlike Taekwondo there is no clash thus it's considered a gentle, close contact martial art -gentle for the practitioner not necessarily for the opponent. It is done by redirecting the opponents own bad intent, attention and physical energy back at him by understanding the laws of physics and actively exploiting their ignorance of these laws. A continuous, dynamic, ongoing analysis of leverage, mechanics, gravity, momentum, centrifugal force and balance reveal their weak spots at any moment in time. Essentially the opponent is a puppet in the hands of the practitioner. All Apologetics practitioners should be students of the art of 1 Peter 3:15 from day one, however 2 Corinthians 10 must be taught alongside so that the student is not defenseless as his knowledge and understanding of the Truth deepens and his proficiency at articulation grows. If you are interested in Apologetics you know Christianity is under attack. Always under attack. I personally know it from both sides: I used to be one of those who attacked Christians. Intellectually I was once a Christian killer, and I can tell you from personal experience Christians-do-not-have-a-defense! They are defenseless! Let me repeat myself: they are defenseless! It's a battleground out there. Let's start our children with basic defensive techniques while developing the higher ideals and skills of the gentle, respectful way. Defense is moral. If you run you will be pursued. Let's stand our ground! Like This Blog?

"What day is it?" asked Pooh. "It's today," squeaked Piglet. "My favorite day," said Pooh. – A.A. Milne
Thanksgiving has passed and has served us well. With so much conflict and concern about what is happening at home and globally, it gently brought our focus back to what matters most. Kindness, caring, celebrating life and togetherness, family and friends. Back to basics really. If we each should do our part in doing no harm, I am convinced the state of the world would instantly improve.
It has become so easy to get caught up with the social-media driven world. Between the Fear Of Missing Out (FOMO) and believing everything one reads without examination or thought, we have succumbed to thinking superficially and speaking in sound bites. Materialism often gains the upper-hand even as we struggle to simplify and live meaningfully.
Enter the power of nature. While we, as a society, embrace our on-line, e-world, we need to get out in the garden even more. By tending a garden, we are reminded to maintain our integrity and honest passion for the natural world. Gardeners remain at all times connected to the rhythms of nature and as a result, have a strong resistance to those not-always-helpful lures of the digital age.
In keeping with the spirit of the holiday season, we want to give attention to gifts of experience versus stuff. Memberships to museums and botanical gardens and/or conservancies, tickets to plays, concerts and other performances, trips to our National Parks and historical sites, or, making good on promises of breaking bread together. There is something for every budget and often, it can be the priceless gift of time – to take walks together, attend a community event, serve at a soup kitchen, share a meal at home, play board games, build something and, even plant a garden. Good for all ages and all personalities.
To get into the right spirit, I have the perfect activity. The Holiday Train Show at the New York Botanical Garden. Whether you are child or adult, it will delight and inspire. The buildings and other structures made entirely of natural materials are positively awe inspiring. The level of creativity and skill is mighty impressive. Not to be outdone, the plantings around the buildings are just as thoughtful and brilliant. Most of all, it is pure fun.
I have been going to this show from the very first year. It never fails to cheer me. I get into the holiday mood by going to the members preview which is held the Friday before Thanksgiving. Perfect timing.
Get a group of the young and young at heart together and go!
Note: Another fabulous event to attend! The Annual Holiday Art and Book Sale starts Dec 6 at the New York Art Students League. Yes, my work is represented! Please do go – support artists and art. Good place to start or add to an art collection.
Enjoy the photos from my visit to this year's NYBG Train Show:

Bug #783
g_mdmat invalid xvg output for legend. OR: g_mdmat, g_analyze, g_enemat output xmgr xvg format for xmgrace?
Using g_mdmat from GROMACS 4.5.4, the xvg output file formats the legend metadata in a way that xmgrace 5.1.22 does not understand, complaining of "Unallocated set: LEGEND STRING ..." for each legend entry.
Example g_mdmat command:
g_mdmat \ -f testout/20110720-1614/trajectory.trr \ -s tpr/hasyn_0001.tpr \ -n gro/hasyn_0001.ndx \ -mean testout/20110720-1614/mdmat_mean.xpm \ -frames testout/20110720-1614/mdmat_frames.xpm \ -no testout/20110720-1614/mdmat_num.xvg
The xvg file produced formats the legend as:
@ legend string 0 "Total/mean" @ legend string 1 "Total" @ legend string 2 "Mean" @ legend string 3 "# atoms" @ legend string 4 "Mean/# atoms"
but xmgrace wants
@ s0 legend "Total/mean" @ s1 legend "Total" @ s2 legend "Mean" @ s3 legend "# atoms" @ s4 legend "Mean/# atoms"
... which is how the other g_ utilities that I've used generate it.
I'm not confident enough to suggest a diff, but the string "legend string" appears in these files:
src/tools/gmx_analyze.c lines 552 553
src/tools/gmx_enemat.c lines 417 419 421
src/tools/gmx_mdmat.c lines 324-328
src/tools/gmx_saltbr.c line 252 -- this seems to only be output for xmgr, as (I think) is correct. Maybe that's the problem with g_mdmat?
src/gmxlib/xvgr.c line 358 -- again, only for xmgr
My guess is that g_analyze, g_enemat and g_mdmat are producing xmgr format xvg files when they should output xmgrace files.

Yes you are correct. Those tools should use the function xvgr_legend instead of printing directly. That way the format is correct for both programs. Could you please upload a patch to gerrit.gromacs.org?

Unlock the true potential of your machine.
Merge Racing products are highly respected by professionals in the industry including racers, mechanics, engineers and more. We are happy to have their support and encouragement.
In 2009 I was really struggling with suspension set up. Kyle Regal joined our team for the last four rounds and introduced me to Jim Lewis with Merge racing who was developing his bike. By the final round of the the pro motocross championship, I'd became good friends with Jim. After the first practice I was struggling once again, so he took Kyle's spare suspension and put it on my bike. I qualified 4th next practice and felt like a completely different rider, then followed that up with a 6th in the final moto.
Being able to go faster was obviously a selling point but safety was the biggest for me. I noticed how much more in control I was. After spending many years with Merge Racing, I'm still amazed everyday by the drive and commitment Merge has to always come up exciting and innovative technology!
Thank you for all the hard work put towards my racing Merge!
I had heard about Merge Racing Technologies from my good buddy, Jimmy Albertson. After I rode his 2011 Honda 450, I knew I was missing out! I had Merge do a suspension re-valve and I got the knuckle for the shock. Now I feel more comfortable and confident knowing what my suspension is going to do. There have been many times when I've been mid air and thought I was in real trouble, but the MRT suspension soaked it right up!
Merge prices were less expensive than most, reasonable for sure and they have always right there to help when needed. They always treated me like I'm the only customer. I'll be using MRT in the future and recommending them to my friends.
MRT's products helped my riding in many ways, but the most the most drastic thing it did for me was give me a new level of confidence in my machine. I started riding better and charging obstacles harder because I knew my suspension would safely handle all types of terrain.
Being an engine builder and developer, we obviously want our equipment to work to the optimum on the track. The Merge ALJ enables us to make our jetting perfect and precise for any conditions on any given day in almost no time. And as in everything, especially Racing, time is of the Essence. So thanks to Merge Racing Technologies we have the last key to perfection. Thanks once again for the continued support! (Where have you been all our 4 stroke life!)

Carte de Visite portrait photograph of John Pascoe Fawkner, taken by Paterson Brothers, Melbourne, on 28 May 1862, with hand-written inscriptions on the reverse apparently by Fawkner himself. Of particular significance is that he uses the carte de visite to record key events in his life:
Born October 20th - 1792 at London
Left England April 25 - 1803
Landed at Port Phillip Oct 19th - 1803
Left it Jan 15
Settled at Hobart Town Feb 16th - 1804
Married my present wife Nov 1818 at Hobart Town
Founded Melbourne Aug 29th 1835
Photograph taken May 29th - 1862
[signed] John Pascoe Fawkner M.L.C.
Fawkner is traditionally credited as being one of the co-founders of Melbourne, alongside John Batman, in 1835, although the two men were rivals. He held passionate and contradictory beliefs. He was a teetotaller, yet established Melbourne's first hotel on the southern side of what was then the Market Square, now the site of the present-day Immigration Museum.
He was also the proprietor of Melbourne's first newspaper, The Melbourne Advertiser, which commenced in 1838 and marked an important milestone for the fledgling township. Fawkner's printing press with which he produced the Advertiser was identified and exhibited at the 1866 Intercolonial Exhibition held in Melbourne, and subsequently became one of the earliest collection items of the Industrial and Technological Museum when it was founded in 1870. It is now held in the collections of Museum Victoria.
He was charged more than once with assault and could be underhand in his business dealings, yet he was elected to Victoria's first parliament. For more than 30 years Fawkner made his mark on Melbourne. When he died, a crowd of 15,000 watched his funeral procession of over 200 carriages. The outer-northern Melbourne suburb is named after him.
In the 19th century, cartes de visite were a very popular as calling cards. They had a definite format, which was an international standard. Small albumen photographic prints were mounted on cards 2.5 by 4 inches. They were used for decades around the world. Unlike earlier photographs made with such processes as the daguerreotype and ambrotype, cartes de visite could be sent through the mail without the need for a bulky case and fragile cover-glass.
Description of Content
A carte-de-visite photographic portrait of John Pascoe Fawkner, showing Fawkner posed standing behind a chair with his hand resting on the chair back, holding a book. A side table with two books on top is position to his right, with a heavily draped curtin falling behind it. Fawkner wears a dark coloured beret and a three-quarter length frock coat.
