I just created a post about 4 hours ago about how exercise reduces heart disease risk. I used the yoast seo plugin, and I got a green light.
I made sure that my seo setting for my wordpress theme was turned off. My keyword was "exercise reduces risk for heart disease." When I type that in Google, I can't find my page. I can't even find it when I type in "exercise reduces risk for heart disease wellness secrets". Wellness Secrets is the name of my organizations' website.
Why isn't it showing up in Google?

"Colca Canyon" Top 5 Page for this destination Colca by toonsarah
Colca Travel Guide: 105 reviews and 311 photos
And there's lots more to do apart from that. The landscape is spectacular in places and there are lots of walking trails. There are also plenty of small villages to visit where the traditional way of life is largely preserved, despite the influx of tourists.
Take swimwear with you so you can enjoy the hot springs near Chivay. And if you want somewhere a bit special to stay, see my tip about the Parador del Colca.
As well as the more dramatic scenery (Colca is deeper than the Grand Canyon!) you'll also find greener places, where the locals still farm on the terraces that date back to pre-Inca times. No tractors here, they just wouldn't be practical, so the fields are ploughed by oxen and there are donkeys to carry the heaviest loads.

Looks like a great area for hiking. Maybe I go to Peru in 2016, and than Colca definitely will be on my list of places to visit.
Great scenery here, and I love the bright coloured clothing they wear. They look to be friendly people. Lovely page!
Fantastic page Sarah. The mountain views are so beautiful. I love the fact she is carrying a baby lama! Awesome intro photograph!
Thanks for this virtual tour!
ok so news at hand... im not going to uzbekistan next year as originally planned. new boyfriend is peruvian, so here it is instead! hahaha. im checking all your peru tips now ;-P
Colca is such a beautiful place and I very much enjoyed my visit. We waited about two hours to see the condors but just before we left, several flew over the canyon :))
Another intersting web site of you! Peru is a great country.
fascinating page you have here
Peru looks like a very interesting place to visit. See you had good weather for photos, you have some good ones.

Guide to Harmful Glitches!
View Single Post
Registered User
Join Date: Jan 2010
Posts: 16
I think it might help if I add some information to this thread that I have found with GTA SA, and my general gaming experience in general, that I hope will be helpful in avoiding certain glitches. The price you pay for this information is reading a long post for potentially-helpful information, so if you cannot read this post in full, then you cannot possibly have the patience to "clean" your save file anyway, and should stop complaining. Some things might have been missed that I could contribute my brain to:
Using cheats and not saving
Just because you don't save when you use those cheats, the corrupt byte(s) is/are still there even if it is not apparent and reloading the game seems to have the cheat disabled. Even if you reload the save file, the "damage" has already been done in memory, so reloading a save and playing it out even without cheating can carry-over to the save file even with a cheat not enabled. The only workaround is to quit the game and start over, since using many of the cheats "taints" memory.
The game sets a certain part of private memory for part of the script, also known as the "main.scm block". Once a cheat has been used, it can conflict with and even corrupt this block of memory, and the program does not re-write this part of memory when switching from one save to another, it only writes it once "per session" just like the block of memory for "handling.cfg" or "vehicles.ide", etc. Many programs of this "caliber of resources" don't like it when their primary instructions change while they are running because it changes the "environment"...you could say it "scars memory" if you will...
First of all, do not use a trainer or cheats during any of this, and avoid the southwestern region that is prone to rain (this may be the root of the problem, actually), or this will not work. Trainers can hang-up changes in memory by simply being active, so at not time should you have a trainer open while the game is running. Some of this may sound silly, but this is an assured way of cycling memory because the game will try to avoid having to write if it doesn't need to.
Garage door doesn't open
What I saw in previous posts rarely works for me in getting a garage to open. One thing I have tried is storing a useless car in a garage (we'll say that this starts in San Fierro for this example), and you take it to the tuner and the door won't open? Take that car and drive it to another county (forcing a map-refresh) like Los Santos. Put that car in the garage and let the door close. Take the car out and immediately destroy it by driving like a moron (like you were doing your best to fail a date with Millie, hitting every car in sight). Keep jacking and destroying cars to repeatedly write-out the few blocks of memory for cars you were previously-in. Driving well out of the "drawing distance" and destroying the car (leaving a wrecked car out of range for the game to remember it was there) and jacking the next car (variety helps because the game has to remap the block more completely) to repeat the same thing may work to flush enough memory to undo this.
The easy way to know that you are cycling memory enough is to jack cars like this:
Jack a car after destroying the last. Drive the new one away to the nearest aircraft. Fly over water and ditch it, swim back, get into a taxi/ambulance/police car (any car with "on-demand" mission potential; you'll be surprised how much code is attached to the taxi), but DON'T SPAWN IT! Get the car organically and don't use cheats or a trainer. Do part of a mission if you want to pass the time, just keep in mind that you want to save "this session" to file without interruption (the more you jumble dynamic memory, the better). Kill this car "the old fashioned way" with collisions, then jack whatever you want. Head to a stable save point like the garage in San Fierro. If a garage can hold four vehicles naturally, this is a more stable garage it seems), and save there, but save with the last two vehicles you drove/piloted left destroyed (nulled from memory block....it might be best to go on foot and simply run a mile or so). Best is that your last car was "lost" in the water far away from where you will save so no "cars history" is even acknowledged when saving. The important part is that there are no previous vehicles that the game needs to remember the position of; do not use bicycles as they don't respond to damage.
The idea is that there are no cars to "hold over" during the save process, not even to be seen after saving). Save, then quit the game and allow time for disk activity to stop and windows to re-allocate the RAM as "free" (restarting the computer at this point will assure that the memory used does not have stray fragments, but I think that might be a little extremist). Restart the game and reload the save and it should work (at least it does for me).
Saving at Mad Dogg's Mansion
I don't know of any workaround other than just saving elsewhere. Unlike Vice City, San Andreas doesn't seem to like it when you turn-out missions by category, it seems to expect you to do missions more randomly. After any of the mansion missions, save somewhere else that has a garage (I think the mansion was supposed to have a real garage, but was cut because of time or technical reasons). I also belive that the mansion missions' "main.scm block" data is adjacent to the "basketball missions" scm block, probabkly because too many operational jumps were made around this block for other missions. For that I blame Rockstar for rushing this to release before the script could be more finely-polished.
Cannot complete mission
I'm not entirely sure this is a real glitch, because the first thing that I noticed is that if you fail the mission and simply go back to it instead of "game-saving it away", you will run into problems. I played the game in several different ways, one way to make stats look as good as possible, another way was only to keep from losing weapons, and another was "Oh whatever, fine I'll do it again"...The last worked with the best results, in fact IDEAL results.
When you fail a mission, don't just reload your last save, keep playing. Trying to "save away" your failures in the game only seems to bring on more problems. I think Rockstar programmers might have actually "turned a blind eye" to glitches like these to see if people play the game and only save with 100% success, like 178 missions attempted and 178 missions passed. The stats are there for you, not for everyone else, so you try better next time you start from the beginning. This is pure speculation, but knowing how devious and maniacal the Rockstar team is, they might have let this one slip just to see the google results (there's no way you could put it past them, if it were released by EA games instead, you would only see proprietary-code for game files and it would not be moddable at all....You don't think they left their developer notes in certain files for nothing, did you?).
The game engine DOES cheat against you, it's not just speculation. You will notice on the last mission with the firetruck, that the ladder truck has what I call, a "freight-train mod", or simply put, it will ram through other cars as if they had no mass, so that the mission cannot be interrupted or easily defeated by circumstance. At the same time the game may give you some kind of "grace" to allow you time to catch-up (on earlier missions, not the last one). If you don't believe me, try racing the Mt. Chiliad missions, but change all the mountain-bikes to slamvans with "vehicles.ide"; you will have no chance of keeping up because their path is scripted for time. Certain areas around the Las Venturas airport will reveal forklifts and such vehicles traveling at highway-speeds that they are not actually capable of.
Don't only save your best-done missions, simply save when you finally get a mission right. Failure seems to be anticipated and expected in a save-game, and reloading just because you failed a mission may be part of the problem. It's only stats that you will probably never share with anyone, and may sometimes be simply for convenience, but trying to "save-out" failures might be one of the bigger precursors to these glitches because with almost every mission I only get a break after the third time I've tried it.
If you read all this, you win an award in patience and research that will likely pay-off for you. Whether you choose to believe it or not, the game expects to be played "organically", such as not getting the taxi-missions complete in one shot. You only need to pick up a total of 50 people in the taxi, not 50 in one run of the mission.
I hope this is helpful to someone, and I'd be glad to see someone repeat my results with at least a 60% approval rating.

Landau Scrubs move with you all day long. This men's lab coat has a five-button closure, belted back sewn over pleats, side hand access, and three front pockets. Made of polyester/cotton with soil-release finish.
I have a Landau Lab coat in size 34 and I wear it daily, I looked at this one online and ordered the same size (34), surprisingly it was very tight and I really could not close the buttons. It seems as the same size and same brand still have different fit ?. I do not know if Allheart will return it or not as it is really of no use to me. I would be reluctant to order lab coats online now.
Product description does not say how fitted this garment really is. Make sure you go up a size to get the correct fit the first time
Two buttons came off in the first week of wearing. No big deal but an inconvenience. Otherwise, I like this labcoat. Lapel covers almost half of name.
Absolutely wonderful coat! Fabric is not heavy or thick and confirms the right feel/touch of lightweight. Satisfied with custom embroidery and within a week's shipping arrival! Will order again!

Hoyt–Schermerhorn Streets is an express station of the New York City Subway, serving the IND Crosstown Line and the IND Fulton Street Line. Located at the intersection of Hoyt Street and Schermerhorn Street in Downtown Brooklyn, it is served by the:
Hoyt–Schermerhorn Streets opened as part of the Fulton Street Line on April 9, 1936, serving both Fulton local and express trains. This station began serving Crosstown Line trains on July 1, 1937, when the Crosstown Line was extended from Nassau Avenue.[2] From this station, northbound local trains were planned to continue to Court Street and terminate there. Express trains would turn north under Jay Street and continue to Manhattan via the Cranberry Street Tunnel. However, initial Fulton Street service ran entirely local since at the time, the line only ran to Rockaway Avenue. Without express service, local trains provided service to Manhattan via the express tracks at this station while the HH shuttle was instituted to serve Court Street and the local tracks/platforms.
Due to low ridership, Court Street was closed and the shuttle was discontinued in 1946. All Fulton Street service was routed via the express tracks at this station to Jay Street – Borough Hall. This eliminated any use for the local tracks and they have been out of service since. The outer platforms were also closed until 1959, when the Aqueduct Racetrack special service began. Service ran from the lower level of 42nd Street – Port Authority Bus Terminal to Aqueduct Racetrack via the IND Eighth Avenue Line, Fulton Street Line, and IND Rockaway Line. Like the lower level at 42nd Street, the outer platforms at this station provided a convenient place to segregate passengers who had paid the extra fare required to board the special trains. Consequently, Hoyt–Schermerhorn Streets was the only stop between 42nd Street and the racetrack.
Since the elimination of the Aqueduct service in 1981, the outer platforms have remained out of revenue service. The abandoned parts of the station are used occasionally for film shoots—for example, The Warriors and The Taking of Pelham 123—and other special functions, such as a public display of the R160Bs on November 29, 2005.
Following the 2009 death of Michael Jackson, New York City Councilwoman Letitia James advocated renaming the station in Jackson's honor and hanging a plaque at the station to commemorate the filming of the video for "Bad" there, but met with resistance from the Metropolitan Transportation Authority. MTA spokesperson Kevin Ortiz explained that the agency prohibits plaques at stations and is currently developing guidelines for station naming-rights deals in order to raise money, while other sources assert that naming stations after individuals would confuse riders.[3]

This wide station has six tracks and four island platforms.[4] The centermost pair of tracks belongs to the Crosstown Line (G). To the east (railroad north), they run under Lafayette Avenue while to the west (railroad south), they turn south and merge with the IND Sixth Avenue Line to form the IND Culver Line under Smith Street.[4][5] The next pair of tracks from the center are the express tracks of the Fulton Street Line (A and C). Trains using these tracks open their doors to the center island platforms, not the outer ones. To the east, the C diverges to the local tracks and all four tracks continue under Fulton Street. To the west, the express tracks curve north under Jay Street and continue as the IND Eighth Avenue Line.[4]
The outermost pair of tracks—the Fulton Street local tracks—and the outer two island platforms are no longer used in revenue service. To the west, the tracks continue under Schermerhorn Street to the decommissioned Court Street station, currently the site of the New York Transit Museum, in Brooklyn Heights.[4] Though it may be difficult to see in some of the unlighted portions of the station, a tile band is present on the trackside walls - similar in color to the Crosstown Line stations up to Flushing Avenue - Lime (Nile) Green with a medium Kelly Green border, set in a three-high course consistent with many IND express stations. Captions reading "HOYT" are present in white lettering on a black background, with no mention of "Schermerhorn". On the Brooklyn-bound side, some of these captions have been stickered-over with different station names as required for film and TV shoots.
Due to its width, the southern half of the station had to be built under private property on the south side of Schermerhorn Street. The station's mezzanine, located over the northern half of the station and under Schermerhorn Street, contains a New York City Transit Police substation and several New York City Transit Authority offices. There are two staircases to each active platform, a turnstile bank, a token booth, and two staircases to the streets. One leads to the northeast corner of Schermerhorn and Hoyt Streets, is built within the front entrance of 250 Schermerhorn Street, and connects to fare control via a corridor. The other staircase leads to the northwest corner of Bond and Schermerhorn Streets and is built inside a building housing the Goodwill Store and Donation Center.
There are numerous sealed stairways and exits in the mezzanine, including a sealed passageway to Livingston Street/Schermerhorn Street and a direct entrance to the former Loeser's Department Store.

In popular culture[edit]
The Hoyt–Schermerhorn Streets station was featured in The Wiz (1978) in which the characters find themselves in a strange Emerald city subway with evil monsters such as chomping trashcans and subway columns that move and try to trap the characters. The station's mezzanine was the main setting for the filming of Michael Jackson's music video/short film for his hit 1987 single "Bad", as well as "Weird Al" Yankovic's parody, "Fat". The station was also featured in the 1988 Eddie Murphy comedy Coming to America in which the main character boards an R38 E train. In the same year, it was also featured in the Paul Hogan adventure comedy Crocodile Dundee II. It was used as the subway stop for City Hall in Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles.
The opening scene of the Law & Order episode "Subterranean Homeboy Blues" (1990) was filmed in this station, with Cynthia Nixon's character, Laura di Biasi, boarding a train. In 1991, the station was featured in a shootout scene for the Michael J. Fox and James Woods buddy cop movie The Hard Way, showing an A train and a background with the Nostrand Avenue stop. The Warriors (1979) and The Taking of Pelham 123 (2009) have also filmed at Hoyt–Schermerhorn Streets.

I have a tiny proposal if you don't mind.
It would be much easier if you could make the plugin more flexible by allowing custom css following WordPress ideology. However, you could allow the plugin first look if there is a custom css called i.e. nrelate.css in it's own or the main directory. If there is no such file then apply other default css. Naturally, this would apply when a user selects the custom css option in the admin.
I appreciate your concern.

Page 2 crashes NBA All-Star parties
The Page 2 partiers are back at it.
Thursday night marked the beginning of the 2011 NBA All-Star Weekend, and athletes and celebrities kicked off the festivities at events around town. Here's what was hot (and not so hot) at some of the events we checked out.
The Baron Davis Lexus CT 200h Challenge
Why that title? Because L.A. Clippers player Baron Davis challenged his celebrity buddies to a race around a track, driving a new Lexus CT 200h.
When and where: Thursday evening, downtown Los Angeles; across the street and adjacent to the Staples Center.
Performers: Hot industry guy DJ Skee was on the wheels of steel.
Celebrities we saw: John Salley, Hill Harper, Boris Kodjoe, Terrell Owens, April Ross, Cash Warren, Dule Hill, Michael Strahan, Tichina Arnold and Jesse Metcalfe. Gnarliest sighting of the night goes to Jaleel White, who played uber nerd Steve Urkel on "Family Matters," who we spotted talking with Jenna Von Oy, who played Sixx, Blossom's BFF on the '90s sitcom "Blossom."
Overheard: "This week is fun. Fun. No work," said Strahan, who linked hands all night with girlfriend Nicole Murphy. "I can just show up where I want to show up and I don't have no obligation. I don't have to wake up early and I can stay up late. I'm good. This is that makeup for being in cold Dallas, having to wake up and work. Now I can just sit back and enjoy and watch some other guys do something that I admire. Basketball players get it in. That guaranteed money makes for a lot of fun!"
Food and drink: A unique idea called for a uniquely Los Angeles experience. In addition to having passed hors d'oeuvres (seared tuna wontons, jerk chicken and beef, to name a few) in the VIP section, Davis had a collection of some of the best L.A. food trucks set up for people to get complimentary burgers, tacos, po' boys, macaroni and cheese, red velvet cupcakes and seafood.
Swag: The hottest thing at this party? Those hybrid Lexus vehicles. Even famous folks couldn't help themselves from posing next to the vehicles on display, though some tried to be slicker about it than others.
All-Star rating: Slam dunk . The party was amazing. It was well-attended and athletes and celebrities got to mingle with one another and sip amazing concoctions (from lemonade iced teas to pomegranate martinis), while raving about the delicious L.A. homegrown food-truck grub. Plus, it was all for charity. Davis' foundation, The Rising Stars of America (RSOA), benefited from the event. $1,000 was awarded for each celebrity that participated in the competition.
NBA All-Star Block Party
Why that title? This Rick Fox-hosted throwdown actually took over a small section of the popular shopping block of Melrose Ave.
When and where: Thursday night, Melrose Avenue.
Performers: An awesome DJ -- her name is DJ Reflex -- kept the crowd energized with hit hip-hop music from the '90s through the now.
Celebrities we saw: Rick Fox, Amber Rose, Bai Ling and Angela Simmons.
Overheard: "Ooh, look, there's Amber Rose, wonder how she feels ..." someone shouted when two Kanye West songs played in a row. Rose is West's ex-girlfriend and the muse, he says, for his current project.
Food and drink: Passed trays of sushi and an open bar that had pretty much anything you'd find at a regular bar. As the party was winding down, someone brought in about a dozen boxes of pizzas, presumably to hand out to partygoers.
Swag: Celebrities walked away with bags of shoes from Ed Hardy and adidas.
All-Star rating: Rebound! This party may not have been crawling with all of the famous faces of some of the night's other events, but it made up for it with great music, a fun atmosphere (men were treated to shaves and haircuts) and strong cocktails. "My mission is for everyone to have a good time and get home safely," one bartender told a patron.
Zo & Magic's 8-Ball Challenge
Why that title? The event was hosted by Alonzo Mourning and Magic Johnson.
When and where: Thursday night, JW Marriott, downtown Los Angeles.
Performers: Biz Markie served as DJ, supplying the tunes for the entire night as Tichina Arnold emceed. Biz seemed to favor the classics from the late '80s and early '90s. The highlight came when he spun an extended mix of Cali Swag District's "Dougie," which sparked a Dougie dance-off about 30 minutes before last call.
Celebrities we saw: There was a high athlete turnout with high-profile ballers such as Dwight Howard, Chris Paul, Kenyon Martin and Dwyane Wade, who walked in hand-in-hand with girlfriend Gabrielle Union, who were on hand for much of the night. Streetballers The Professor and Escalade were in attendance, too, and got much love from Biz Markie.
Overheard: As the night got started, CNN analyst Roland Martin joked with retired ballers Gary Payton and Jalen Rose on the red carpet like they were old friends. When Howard arrived, it seemed that every former big man in attendance was offering advice. At one point, former centers Kevin Willis and former Bulls center Bill Wennington huddled with Howard before his attention turned to the clamoring masses. The highlight of the night came on the dance floor when Howard requested the Electric Slide and proceeded to perform said dance with two dozen, mostly female, patrons. Howard showed swift dance-floor skills and delivered a pound to Biz after the song before disappearing out the door.
Food and drink: The big hit was the chicken tender and waffle squares on a stick, which were an obvious ode to LA's famed chicken and waffle rep. Patrons appreciated the six open bars, which stayed open 'til 1:30 a.m. and kept the revelers in a constant state of euphoria.
Swag: Folks came dressed to impress. Styles that were prominent included carefully folded ties, vests, a wide range of fedoras and fashionable high-top sneakers.
All-Star rating: Slam Dunk. Plenty of pro athletes who seemed to know how to work the room. You could tell the stars in attendance had a few All-Star Weekends under their belts. And as tired partygoers headed for the door just before 2 a.m., their satisfied grins told the story.

Beautiful work! I am loving your style!

Not all of Tom Izzo's 500 wins have come as easy as his latest did Thursday.
Thanks to a triple-double from Denzel Valentine, No. 3 Michigan State routed Boston College 99-68 in an opening-round game at the DirectTV Wooden Legacy Classic, giving Izzo the milestone victory.
MORE: Seven surprises from early-season college hoops
Izzo, in his 21st season with the Spartans, is the third coach to reach 500 wins with a Big Ten team, joining Bobby Knight (661) and Gene Keady (512). And he's the eighth coach in Division I history to achieve the marker in 21 seasons or fewer.
Valentine's performance made it a no-doubter. The senior poured in 29 points with 11 rebounds and 10 assists for his second triple-double of the season. With its win, Michigan State (5-0) advances to the tournament's semifinal round to play Boise State (3-2) on Friday.
Before Thursday's game, Izzo joked he's got a long way to go before joining the ranks of college basketball's elite.
"Yay, Izzo got 500 — he's only 600 behind (Mike) Krzyzewski!" he mused.
It's true. Izzo is 60th all time in wins, trailing Duke's Krzyzewsk by 523. He's closer to John Wooden, the tournament's namesake, who finished his career with 664 wins.

Originally posted on Mets360.com | Last updated 11/22/11
Yesterday the Texas Rangers signed closer Joe Nathan to a two year $14.5M with a club option for a third year at $9M. Nathan, who turns 37 today, was once one of baseball's best closers from 2004 to 2009 he compiled 246 saves, made it to the All-Star game four times, and finish top five in the Cy Young Award voting twice. Then he had Tommy John surgery in 2010, which forced him to miss all of the 2010 season. He came back in 2011 and was clearly not the same pitcher he was two years early. Last season in 44.2 innings pitched he had a 4.84 ERA and collected just 14 saves. Now he gets a fresh start in Texas, where he and the Rangers hope that last season was just an adjustment period. Jonathan Papelbon set the market for closers early this off-season with a four year $50M deal with the Philadelphia Phillies. Now, a pitcher like Nathan is given $7M a year after a very poor season in 2011. So what's this mean for the Mets, who are looking to spend money on one of the many closers out ...

Click here to view a RCU thread on electric conversion of a Hurricane This size motor, the E-Flight Power 160 or equivalent is more than enough power for the 80" ESM planes. It can also be used with the 72" ESM planes with smaller batteries.
ESM Beechcraft Bonanza Standard Tail, 80" wingspan
The Beechcraft Bonanza Standard Tail produced by ESM, is yet another top notch RC scale airplane design to excite you with both appearance and performance. ESM of China has been importing RC scale airplanes into the USA and Canada for a few years now, and in that time ESM has become recognized as a new industry leader in highly detailed, great flying, ARF's. Not only are the ESM ARF's highly detailed, and great flying, they are extremely affordable for anyone to enjoy!
The Bonanza, as with all of ESM's RC scale airplanes, come already painted at the factory, have pre-applied decals (which are then covered with a clear coat at the factory), have factory functional flaps (if the full scale version also had flaps), and come with one of the more complete hardware packages anywhere...including screws, rods, fuel tanks...etc.
All ESM planes are painted with a very high quality enamel paint which is resistant to oil, grease, and fuels. The high gloss paints are of course easier to clean than the low gloss. These paints can be painted over for weathering and the like.
Most ESM scale RC airplanes have poly resin fiberglass fuselages, with the wings being typical built up, and then covered with an etched polyester film, which is then painted for a perfect match! While all ESM scale RC planes come from the factory with conventional gear and wheels, ESM also offers a complete line of retracts for each individual plane, adding to the level of scale realism that all scale pilots look for in an ARF. It doesn't end there, ESM offers separately a full line of scale accessories like bombs, gear doors, pilots, external fuel tanks and more, specifically designed to help those builders who want the most realism possible, without having to spend hours designing and building all these extra scale goodies.
Here at TBM we know that things can happen, and because of this, we work very hard with ESM to provide you with many spare parts. Simply refer to your warranty for further information as to parts availability.
The ESM Bonanza, as with all of the ESM line of ARF scale RC airplanes, look and fly so realistically that we are confident that you will be extremely pleased !!! ESM is continually working on producing new RC scale aircraft, and most of these new offerings will be available with wingspans of 80 inches or more so that they will meet or exceed IMAA legal requirements...so be sure to come back often to see what new ARF scale RC aircraft TBM and ESM have coming out!

The Beechcraft Bonanza, as with all of ESMs scale models, is loaded with features never before found in such low priced ARF's, resulting in highly detailed, great looks, and great flying ARF's!
The detailed fuselage is poly resin fiberglass, with scale panel lines and rivets molded right in. Wings are typical built up construction, include pre-designed cavities and mounting blocks for optional scale retracts, and have factory constructed flaps, all of which is then factory covered with an etched polyester film. All parts are finally expertly painted right at ESM's factory, and once dry, all scale decals are pre-applied, and are then covered with a factory clear coat for protection.
All ESM planes are painted with a very high quality enamel paint which is resistant to oil, grease, and fuels. The high gloss paints are of course easier to clean than the low gloss. These paints can be painted over for weathering and the like.
The ESM Beechcraft Bonanza comes from the factory with conventional gear and wheels, and one of the more complete hardware packages anywhere...including screws, rods, fuel tanks...etc. ESM also offers a complete line of retracts for each individual plane, adding to the level of scale realism that all scale pilots look for in an ARF.
Important Addendum: Regarding CG in ESM Manuals
A Little History of the Beechcraft Bonanza
Designed by a team led by Ralph Harmon, the original model 35 Bonanza was the first truly modern high-performance personalaircraft: a very fast, all-metal, low-wing monoplane at a time when most light aircraft were still made of wood and fabric. The model 35 featured retractable landing gear and its signature V Tail (equipped with a combination elevator-rudder called a ruddervator), which made it both highly efficient and the most distinctive private aircraft in the sky. The prototype 35 Bonanza made its first flight on December 22, 1945, with the first production aircraft debuting as 1947 models.
In 1982 the V-tail Bonanza was pulleded from production, though more than 6,000 V-tail models are still flying today, and they command a premium price on the used aircraft market.
All Bonanzas share an unusual feature: the yoke and rudder pedals are interconnected by a system of flexible bungees which assist in keeping the airplane in co-ordinated flight during turns. The bungee system allows the pilot to make coordinated turns using the yoke alone, or with minimal rudder input, during cruise flight. On takeoff increased right-rudder pressure is still required to overcome torque and P factor. In the landing phase the bungee system must be over-ridden by the pilot when making cross wind landings and cross controlled inputs are required to keep the nose of the airplane aligned with the runway centerline without drifting left or right. This feature started with the V-tail and persists on the current production model.

WARNING - Gasoline and Turbine powered R/C model aircraft are not manufactured to withstand unlimited G's. Any R/C model aircraft can fail, be it a wing folding up or a fuselage breaking in half under too high of a load. Just as any full size aircraft, model R/C aircraft have a maximum G rating. Because you are not in the plane flying it and experiencing the G's and reading the G-meter, it is more difficult to judge the G's on the aircraft, and it is very easy to exceed the limits of the aircraft. Understand that if you perform a snap roll, parachute, wall, blender, knife edge loop, or pull hard on the elevator at almost any speed, you can be putting in excess of 15 G's, even in excess of 30 G's, and most aircraft can only designed to take 10-12 G's. If you perform any violent maneuver, you can break your plane. When I perform hard maneuvers, especially for the first time on an airframe, I am prepared for a failure and am prepared for it as best I can be. This mainly includes performing the maneuver far enough away from spectators that in event of a failure that I am not endangering others. In addition, be prepared for the manufacturer to not pay for a new airframe which is broken during flight. It is common practice for any manufacturer to not replace an airframe which breaks in the air or upon landing. I have only seen manufacturers replace airframes when they have received many of the same failures and the manufacturer determines that there was a design or manufacturing error. If you break an airframe, and you are the only one to do so, then it is probably not the fault of the manufacturer. Please fly safely, and avoid full throttle operation other than at low airspeeds.
R/C model jets, warbirds, aerobatic planes, DJI S1000 Octocopter, and UAV Unmanned Aerial Vehicles to name a few are not a toy! If misused, it can cause serious bodily harm and property damage. Fly only in open areas, and AMA (Academy of Model Aeronautics) approved flying sites. Follow all manufacturer instructions included with your plane, radio, servo's, batteries and engine. Aircraft manufacturers guarantees each kit to be free from defects in both material and workmanship at the date of purchase. This warranty does not cover any component assembled by the customer. All parts of high stress must be inspected and reinforced if necessary by a competent builder. Some parts should be glued again. High stress areas such as firewalls, motor boxes, wing mounts, landing gear mounts, etc., are areas of high concern. Seek help if necessary. In not case shall TBM be liable for the cost of any product it offers which is not manufactured by TBM. The liability to the manufacturer cannot exceed the original cost of the purchased item. Further, TBM reserves the right to change or modify this warranty without notice. In that TBM has no control over the final assembly or materials used for final assembly, no liability shall be assumed nor accepted for any damage resulting from the use by the user of the final user-assembled product. By the act of using the user assembled product, the user accepts all resulting liability. The kit manufacturers have provided you with a top quality, thoroughly tested kit and instructions, but ultimately the quality and fly ability of your finished model depends on how you build it; therefore, we cannot in any way guarantee the performance of your completed model, and no representations are expressed or implied as to the performance or safety of your completed model.

Loss of Lives in Clinical Trials...
Researchers Now Have a Myriad of...
Capitol Hill Critics Second-Guess Agencies Using...
Clinical-Style Validation, Regulation, and Quality Control...
Scientists at the Stanford University School of Medicine say a study with mice has demonstrated that oxytocin, aka the "love hormone," appears to be involved in a wider range of social activities than previously thought.
They also believe that their discovery ("Social reward requires coordinated activity of nucleus accumbens oxytocin and serotonin"), published today in Nature, has implications for neurological disorders such as autism and for insights on the evolutionary history of Homo sapiens.
Oxytocin is the focus of much interest for its apparent roles in establishing trust between people. It has also been administered to children with autism spectrum disorders in clinical trials. Oxytocin has been branded with the "love hormone" handle because of its importance in the formation and maintenance of strong mother-child and sexual attachments.
According to the researchers, the new study pinpoints a unique way in which oxytocin alters activity in a part of the brain crucial to experiencing the pleasant sensation neuroscientists call "reward."
"[Our] results demonstrate that the rewarding properties of social interaction in mice require the coordinated activity of oxytocin and 5-HT [5-hydroxytryptamine] in the nucleus accumbens, a mechanistic insight with implications for understanding the pathogenesis of social dysfunction in neuropsychiatric disorders such as autism," wrote the investigators in the Nature article.
In addition, the Stanford team maintains that its findings not only provide validity for ongoing trials of oxytocin in autistic patients, but also suggest possible new treatments for neuropsychiatric conditions in which social activity is impaired.
"People with autism-spectrum disorders may not experience the normal reward the rest of us all get from being with our friends," said Robert Malenka, M.D., Ph.D., the study's senior author. "For them, social interactions can be downright painful. So we asked, what in the brain makes you enjoy hanging out with your buddies?"
Some genetic evidence suggests the awkward social interaction that is a hallmark of autism-spectrum disorders may be at least in part oxytocin-related. Certain variations in the gene that encodes the oxytocin receptor are associated with increased autism risk.
In the 1970s, biologists learned that in prairie voles, which mate for life, the nucleus accumbens, which is involved in the brain's reward system, is replete with oxytocin receptors. Disrupting the binding of oxytocin to these receptors impaired prairie voles' monogamous behavior. In many other species that are not monogamous by nature, such as mountain voles and common mice, the nucleus accumbens appeared to lack those receptors.
For the current study, Dr. Malenka's group focused on untangling the complicated neurophysiological underpinnings of oxytocin's role in social interactions. They zeroed in on biochemical events taking place in the nucleus accumbens.
"Although the nucleus accumbens receives oxytocin receptor-containing inputs from several brain regions, genetic deletion of these receptors specifically from dorsal raphe nucleus, which provides serotonergic [5-HT] innervation to the nucleus accumbens, abolishes the reinforcing properties of social interaction," continued the scientists in their Nature article. "Furthermore, oxytocin-induced synaptic plasticity requires activation of nucleus accumbens 5-HT1B receptors, the blockade of which prevents social reward."
"From this observation sprang a dogma that pair bonding is a special type of social behavior tied to the presence of oxytocin receptors in the nucleus accumbens," explained Gül Dölen, M.D., Ph.D., a postdoctoral scholar in Dr. Malenka's group. "But what's driving the more common group behaviors that all mammals engage in—cooperation, altruism, or just playing around—remained mysterious, since these oxytocin receptors were supposedly absent in the nucleus accumbens of most social animals."
The new discovery shows that mice do indeed have oxytocin receptors at a key location in the nucleus accumbens and, importantly, that blocking oxytocin's activity there significantly diminishes these animals' appetite for socializing.
Drs. Malenka and Dölen think their findings in mice can be generalized to humans because the brain's reward circuitry has been carefully conserved over the course of hundreds of millions of years of evolution. This extensive cross-species similarity probably stems from pleasure's absolutely essential role in reinforcing behavior likely to boost an individual's chance of survival and procreation.
