Solving the bike problem with the new generation of bike storage
Posted on July 4, 2014 by Mike Clay There have been 0 comments
The momentum for 'mode-shift' to cycling in our cities continues at a pace, giving cyclists a new problem: where do they safely park their bicycles? Every day bikes are exposed to the rigours of the weather and threat of theft, making city dwellers particularly aware of the importance of secure parking. Some (but not many) commuters are blessed with the provision of vast underground parking areas below their offices, but what do the rest do? Bicycles are filling the streets, and the huge volume of street parking spaces are making some areas look increasingly unattractive and cluttered; visit the main railway station in Copenhagen and you will see how cycling can become a victim of its own success.
With the predicted growth of population in the city, and more people encouraged to use cycle space, coming up with new solutions has never been more important. Some cities across the globe are introducing innovative bike storage facilities to address the issue of both theft and space. These designs tackle the crowded streets and solve the parking issues in urban areas: think bicycle garages, cycling pods and bike hotels. In this post we take a look at how technology and design are improving traditional bike parking with modern, spacious and clean bike stations.
Japanese robotic bike parking
The Tokyo streets are hiding something you could never imagine: an underground bicycle storage system which looks more like something from a sci-fi movie than a parking space. Solutions like this help to ease pressure on heavily used public transit systems and the ECO-Cycle, developed by Giken Ltd, has become home to 204 bikes since 2010.
They are stored in the depths of an underground system where users' bikes are placed on a platform, and then taken 40 feet underground by the ECO-Cycle elevator, which holds and rotates the bicycles downwards. The whole process of storing and retrieving the bikes takes only 13 seconds maximum, but it also comes at a price with a monthly membership costing 2,6000 Yen, the equivalent of £15.34 (although there is a fifty-percent discount available to students). Every subscriber receives an RFID card which allows them to access the parking.
Bike sheds in the Netherlands
In the Netherlands there are more bicycles than residents, and this is evident in mode-use, where up to 70% of all journeys are made by bike. The infrastructure is tailored to this extraordinary statistic, placed in close proximity to bus and train stations, shopping centres and schools, and offering a network of spacious, safe, convenient and clean parking facilities.
The video shows an example of one of the Dutch underground bike parks which has room for an extraordinary 5,020 bicycles. This free solution, with its clean and spacious appearance, pursues the aim of creating friendly yet useful facilities for modern cycling. This parking space is guarded and there is always someone ensuring its cleanliness and order. Several entrances welcome bike users inside to pump up tyres and make repairs, rent bikes, baby buggies or even walkers, for those capable of cycling but with difficulties walking.
These characteristics are an important part of Netherlands' philosophy which focuses on encouraging citizens to use more cycling infrastructure. The inviting feel of bikie storage facilities is not just a coincidence, it is the way forward, making people simply want to use them as they feel so welcoming and offer everything a cyclist needs.
Raising the profile of biking with cycling pods and bike hotels
Barcelona is working to make bike parking a safer and more convenient experience with Bicibox, a small station which can provide storage for up to 7 bikes while taking up only the space of a single car.
The station is divided into parking boxes that are equipped with a swipe card system and an energy efficient console. The secure sliding door serves as a shelter from the weather and theft and users can access real-time information through the system's website or the Bicibox mobile app to search for available spots near their location. This full network connectivity eliminates barriers to parking while promoting bike mobility as an alternative mode of transport around our cities.
Bike stations are becoming a form of oasis for those inclined to travel by pedal power, and the best example of this is the Bikestation in Washington, D.C. To encourage green travel, the building offers storage for up to 200 bikes, while also housing a changing room, bike support services and retail facility.
All of this is located in a low-energy building which was developed to demonstrate possibilities of green structures, making good use of daylight and natural cooling. This efficient building, designed by KGB Design Studio, has window louvers that open at the top to let air escape and which also has a rainwater catchment system used to irrigate local plants. For £70 per month visitors can sign up for the Bikestation's secure membership or alternatively pay per day to lock their bike safely.
Even though these bicycle stations might be a fairly recent phenomenon, the liveable cities movement must include more to promote bicycle use. Providing secure parking areas is one sure measure to increase pedal power and it's time for some linked up thinking about parking solutions which can inspire and motivate other cities. The issue is not only about parking, it's about contributing to the cycling experience of all bike commuters, with friendly facilities where bikers can change, take a shower and leave their cycling clothes behind, swapping the saddle for a briefcase and a suit.

Thadathivila Radhakrishnan, State committee member of the Kerala Congress (B) said that his party workers are en bloc opposed to the style of functioning of the Forest Minister K.B. Ganesh Kumar, who is the party nominee in the Ommen Chandy Cabinet.
At a press conference here on Monday along with a crowd of Kerala Congress (B) leaders, Mr. Radhakrishnan said that in the last State committee meeting of the party held at Thiruvananthapuram not a single member representing the 140 constituencies in the State talked in favour of Mr. Ganesh Kumar.
It is in this backdrop that the party has decided to convene another State committee meeting at Eranakulam on February 7 to take the decision whether Mr. Ganesh Kumar should continue as minister or be withdrawn. If the minister continues ignoring the party, then the party men will think in terms of why should the party need such a minister, Mr. Radhakrishnan said.
He said that reports in circulation about a showdown between "father and son" triggering crisis in the party was totally baseless. "In reality it is a showdown between the party and Mr. Ganesh Kumar". The party chairman R. Balakrishna Pillai was only airing the sentiments of the party workers.
Mr. Ganesh Kumar was not maintaining any relationship with the party.
The party workers are deeply hurt at the minister having an active pro CPI(M) Kerala State Teachers Association activist in his personal staff as additional private secretary. The three portfolios which the minister handles have various committees.
But in none of the committee is there a Kerala Congress (B) representation though all the appointments were made by the minister.
Mr. Ganesh Kumar does not respond to phone calls made by even State level leaders of the party. The minister also keeps away from party meetings, Mr. Radhakrishan said.
In sharp contrast to the approach of other ministers to their respective party workers, Mr.Ganesh Kumar did not even inform party workers on any of his public programmes. The Minister was making wild allegations against the party workers. He called upon the minister to be specific when such allegations are made and not vague.
When asked about Mr. Ganesh Kumar's performance as a minister, Mr. Radhakrishnan said that the party does not allege that the minister is either inefficient or corrupt. Among the party leaders present at the press conference were Karikode Dileep Kumar, Perinad Vijayan, Divakaran Kavaoldi, Kundara Prathapan, Pooram Sreekumar, Arakkal Sreekumar and Raju Pandakasala.

Pennsylvania Supreme Court Justice Speaks on the Death Penalty and Pennsylvania Capital Jurisprudence
Web Editor and Harrisburg Web Correspondent - Published: April 11, 2013
Pennsylvania Supreme Court Justice
Thomas G. Saylor
, who has served as the Widener
Law & Government Institute
's Distinguished Jurist in Residence since 2009, delivered the annual Jurist in Residence Lecture on Thursday, April 4th.
The lecture, "Death-Penalty Stewardship and the Current State of Pennsylvania Capital Jurisprudence," analyzed some of the cases that have had a significant impact on capital jurisprudence, including the Supreme Court's decision in Furman v. Georgia that led to the suspension of the death penalty throughout the United States between 1972 and 1976 and Strickland v. Washington, in which the United States Supreme Court established a two-pronged test for resolving claims of ineffective assistance of counsel. He touched on how the test established in the Strickland decision proved important to cases such as Williams v. Taylor and Wiggins v. Smith, in which the Supreme Court articulated the standards for effective legal counsel guaranteed by the Sixth Amendment.
Justice Saylor then turned to a consideration of death penalty trials in Pennsylvania and the systematic challenge to the system in Philadelphia. He discussed the issue of attorney with limited capital case experience and emphasized the importance of improving the capital judicial proceedings in Pennsylvania, but also acknowledged that there are a number of very effective capital attorneys in Philadelphia. He concluded by suggesting that is possible to implement the policies necessary to improve the system.
At the conclusion of the presentation, Professor
John L. Gedid
, the Director of Widener's Law & Government Institute, presented Justice Saylor with a Jurist in Residence Award "in recognition of his distinguished teaching and mentoring" in his role as Jurist in Residence from 2009 to 2013. A short reception followed the program.
Justice Saylor earned his law degree from Columbia University in 1972 and a master of laws degree in judicial studies from the University of Virginia. He served as first assistant district attorney of his native Somerset County until 1982, when he was appointed director of the Pennsylvania Office of Consumer Protection. In 1984 he was appointed first deputy attorney general of Pennsylvania. Elected to the Superior Court of Pennsylvania in 1993, he was later elected to the Pennsylvania Supreme Court in 1997 and was retained in 2007 for a second, ten-year term on the Supreme Court. His law review and judicial opinion writings establish his expertise in constitutional law – especially state constitutional law, administrative law and judicial review.

One epic Journey needs your helpI rarely write to promote others efforts in raising money for charity. It's because there are so many out there, that to promote each time I come across one would be ongoing forevermore. However there is one particular cause that I would like to direct your attentions to today.A friend from my college days is cycling unaided from Lands End to John o' Groats in June of this year. That's basically from the bottom of the UK, to the top. He's doing it for a very special charity based here in the UK called Naomi House. And why? Because in 2008 his newborn niece unfortunately died - but Naomi House were there to make her last few days as comfortable as possible. Naomi House provides respite to sick children with life limiting illnesses - and their families. It keeps a family together until the last possible moment.I urge you today, not to donate. It would be nice if you can, but that's not entirely why I am writing about this. But I urge you more than anything else to spread the
More Critical Thoughts on Art School + Career PathHey everyone, thanks for the info on San Francisco for those who live in / near there. It's a big thing for me to still be thinking about, so I'll definitely be coming in for a visit before I make any final decisions.Elsewhere, I've been meaning to do a short rant dealing with how I feel retrospectively having gone to art school. I've talked about having gone before, and I've given some advice about choosing a school that's right for you should you choose to go. But you know, having been out for a couple years now, there are a few glaring problems I see not just from the school I attended, but apparently from many schools nationwide. And this deals with offering students a clear path of study for the often specialized career they are looking to get into. Areas of art such as (concept) design, animation, comics/storyboarding/sequential, full-time freelance, and all-over jobs related to working in industry-level professional positions, or in a teamwork-oriented studio setting.

text: The solution is exactly the same as for the Binutils problem (though you didn't say how you fixed the Binutils issue, and if you are having problems with GCC now, you apparently didn't do what you were supposed to with Binutils either). Read page 5.3 *very* carefully. One thing it says is that for each package, you are to unpack the source tarball, cd into the source dir, then follow the instructions on the page. Therefore, you should be in the GCC source dir when you are unpacking GMP and MPFR. The exact same principle applies to every other package in the rest of the book. The solutions for binutils was i just needed to change the privileges and ownership of some folder, Ive forgotten which one, i think it was $LFS/tools. Hamish, Please remember to put a subject line in you posts. Did you remember tomv -v mpfr-2.4.1 mpfr after unpacking mpfr _inside_ the directory where the gcc source code is unpacked? The same for gmpmv -v gmp-4.3.1 gmp rblythe Sorry about the subject line, and when i unpack, im still in the previous directory, the binutils build one, so hopefully thats problem solved, thanks,Hamish _________________________________________________________________ Time for a new car?

Had to leave early as the place got evacuated and a myday call to ve rescued!! Poor spa facilities and limited luxury. Trips overcrowded and staff unenthusuastic. Poor value for money and I have stayed in some very high end places. Questionable modes of transport if you look up the airline that is used- not a great safety record.

Thread: I need a new jersey
-07-09-2007 #1
I need a new jersey
After going through my closest I recently stumbled upon my sole Rams jersey, that of Kurt Warner. So I decided that it was time to get a new jersey. So which one do you think I should get? I've also heard that it depends on your body type (mine is 6'0 and 165). Unsure if I should go with a proven vet, or go with someone that no one knows about except us die hard Rams fans. Also where can I get the cheapest one?

Re: I need a new jersey
You'll pretty much want to go with one of your favorite players. I voted for Steven Jackson, because he may be the most popular Ram to those outside the Rams fan-base right now, either him or Holt I believe.
As for price, your base price will be something like $74.99. Most of the time you can find a store (Hibbet, for example) that will have some for 50-60 bucks.
Of course ebay has a pretty nice selection, but you have to watch out for fake jerseys, or jerseys not made by Reebok (Rams nike jerseys are a lot cheaper, but they are not the true replica jerseys).

By the way, there's lots of counters to Karthus' ult, so I fail to see how it is Anti-fun. Any heal with Soraka's being the obvious one. Sivir's shield, although not sure how it works there. Urgot, Udyr, Morde, Sion, Lux, Janna and Morgana's shields. Last three being best as they can be put on anyone. Shen's Ult and Feint. Kayle ult. Trynd ult. Anivia Egg, although not really a counter as you have no control. Zhonya's Hourglass. Magic Resistance. Summoner Heal. Sanguine Pool. Then there's MR increasing skills such as Morde's metal shards, Galio's Bulwark, Yi's Meditation, Rammus' defensive ball curl. Damage mitigation such as Garen's Courage and Gragas' Drunken Rage. Nasus' ult for increasing his HP temporarily. And last but not at all least... ZILEAN'S ULT! p.s. I played Karthus last game. **** Zilean... Edit: Above post, you cannot build a Null Magic Mantle into a Deathfire Grasp. See here, I did most of the work on the Item section, so please use it: Null Magic Mantle
Maybe you can answer me some questions on caitlyn and maybe even why it was designed this way. A) Caitlyns Q and R scale with her AD, but her W and E scale only on AP (which are her defensive abilities) where does that fit into any design? Why not remove the AP part entirely? Garen's Ultimate doesn't scale with AP either. B) Caitlyns Trap doesn't serve a purpose other than Nidalees trap just that - you can't place as many (just TWO !!), the 1,5 second snare (if the enemy isn't wearing merc treads) doesn't really serfe much purpose in most situations, usually setting the trap up while fleeing will make you less likely to survive, and you can't preset the trap well because of the # limit. C) Caitlyns E ability (the net and knockback) is outright terrible, there's exaclty ONE situation in which that ability serves it's full purpose, that's a visible enemy charging you straight on that you can hit on range. Otherwise you'll most likely still end up dead (using it in melee) or only use the knockback effect to get over small obstacles/terrain (which nullifies the net-effect usually). There's only 2 uses (and one of them is incredibly anti fun because it denies you killing your target) for that net (and in both cases you don't use the knockback) That is 1) last hitting an enemy in an emergency - chance of happening 0,0001% and 2) slowing an enemy for your team so they can kill him (without you obviously) which is also hard to do because your net hits minions (WTF?!) and the slow usually doesn't last long enough to be of much an effect. So there is TWO standard uses for this ability (and it's a pure utility ability so it should actually serve more purposes) That is 1) knock yourself over a wall 2) slow an enemy that is charging at you at high range and get away better (usually you'd get away ANYWAYS because said champion is visible and at high range) D) Her passive is uber strong in early laning but loses purpose entirely in teamfights and endgame (where the fights aren't as staged). It's pretty **** useful for jungling though - which I like a lot. Also her passive makes the player think "I need attackspeed" while you clearly need high Attack Damage to get anything out of your champ. E) As sniper, high-ranged physical champion she has only TWO offensive abilities (Q and R) while her two DEFENSIVE abilities (isn't she supposed to be high-range and not need that much defense?) are so underwhelming and bad that she dies anyways once you attack her with anything. This creates a champion that overall has bad damage output AND bad survival AND bad utility which creates a terrible addition to your team. That's some major design flaws. Also bugs: Ultimate can crit and then deal damage as if it were a basic attack. Ultimate can be dodged / Pantheon blocked. (haven't had this in a while though, dunno if you already fixed it, don't think so) best regards, loving this game - Karn
Hi Zileas, please take a look at this: http://www.leagueoflegends.com/board...d.php?t=446652 thread when you get the chance, it is directly related to (what I and hopefully many other players) something that is, I think, distinctly anti-fun. I even quoted you (page 2)! Here's hoping for a response. Thanks
Come on Zileas, screw the patch, just give us some kind of response!

Intense red eyes gazed up at the silent house. He was there. He had to be.
"I'm coming for you Mogui…"
"Nicholas, can we go home? I'm cold." Natalie whimpered. Nicholas snapped a sharp retort at his useless Belarusian sister in Russia and sighed.
"Da. Big brother found the little Asian scumbag who thought he could cheat big brother out of his money. Tomorrow I'm going to pay Mogui a little house call…"
The next day, your POV
"Mommy, where's the boy we brought here last night?" Oliver asked as he hugged your legs. You sighed and set down your mixing bowl.
"Mogui left sweetie." Oliver's blue and pink eyes looked up at you, confused.
"Because he's smart. Little boys and girls shouldn't go home with people they don't know."
"But Mommy, I didn't know you." Oliver was getting more perplexed by the minute.
"That's different. Never ever go with anyone you don't know unless Mommy says it's okay first, got it?"
"Okay!" A knock sounded at the door.
"Jacques, can you get that for me?" You called. A grunt was Jacques's only answer. Seconds later the door was opened. Footsteps came back to the kitchen.
"Who was at the door?" You turned to be greeted by the sight of Jacques being held at gunpoint by a boy not much older than he was. Behind the boy holding your son was a girl with long golden hair and fearful blue eyes. From the way that she gripped her bright pink dress it was obvious that she didn't wish to be in your house.
"Where is Mogui?" Asked the boy holding your son calmly.
"Mogui? He left last night." You responded.
"Lies," the boy hissed, "I know he stayed here."
"I offered him a place here but he refused. I don't know where he is now." The girl tugged on the boy's gray jacket.
"Nickolas, I think the lady's telling the truth." The boy, Nickolas, turned his head to the girl.
"Did I ask what you thought Natalie?!" He snarled. Natalie shrank back and while Nickolas's attention was diverted Oliver snagged the gun out of Nickolas's hand. No longer in danger, Jacques wrestled and pinned Nickolas to the ground.
"Our mother doesn't lie. The kid you're looking for left late last night. About two hours before you came to case our house," Jacques spat.
"He's right," Mogui said from the doorway, "I did leave last night."
"Mogui, what are you doing here?" You asked. Mogui looked at your, red eyes full of unfathomable emotions.
"I came back to warn you that there was a Russian on my tail. Guess I came a little late to the party."
"Get off of me!" Nickolas ordered. Jacques looked at you, asking for permission. You shrugged. Jacques got off of Nickolas and went to stand by you.
"I will tell you what I told you're minion, I'll give you the money when I have it. Until then," Mogui walked over to you and touched your shoulder, "I call sanctuary." You smiled.
"So you decided to take me up on my offer after all."
"Only because he'll kill me if I didn't." Sighing, you turned your back on the children and went back to making breakfast.
"Gee, you sure know how to make a girl feel wanted."
"What's for breakfast?" Nickolas demanded. You spun to face the ten-year-old intruder.
"Pardon me?"
"When. Is. Breakfast?" Nickolas repeated.
"You're joining us?" You asked.
"Until Mogui pays me back, I'll be staying here with my sister, Natalie. Rumor has it that you're hosting an open house for orphaned drifters. My sister and I fit that description perfectly." Perhaps in the future you would need to put restrictions on who you let into your home.
"Alright but no fighting, no blood, no cursing, no bringing people here, and no trying to kill each other while in the confines of my home." Nickolas considered your conditions before nodding.
"Deal." It would appear that you had three more mouths to feed.

Travelling Light
Thursday, February 16
2hr 30mins
Travelling Light imagines the birth of silent film in a remote Eastern European village at the turn of the century.
Motl Mendl, who's entranced by the flickering silent images on his father's cinematograph, makes this small Jewish community his camera's focus. Bankrolled by Jacob, the ebullient local timber merchant, and inspired by Anna, the girl sent to help him make moving pictures of their village, he stumbles on a revolutionary way of story-telling. Forty years on, Motl – now a famed American film director – looks back on his early life and confronts the cost of fulfilling his dreams.
Nicholas Wright's new play is a funny and fascinating tribute to the Eastern European immigrants who became major players in Hollywood's golden age, and stars Tony and Olivier award winner, Antony Sher.
"A love letter to the movies and an appealingly intelligent evocation of the Jewish folk culture that formed the basis of American cinema." - Guardian

Long story short, the last four times my boyfriend and I have had sex he has gone deep. I mean REAL deep and hard. I absolutely love it in the moment but afterwards a pain has started to develop. It's almost like period cramps but I know it's not. We had sex last night and like he has been he went hard out, thrusting real hard and real deep and it hurt me at first. I didn't say anything because after the painful first thrust it was fine. Afterward I got up to pee and holy shit the pain in my lower abdomen was ridiculous. I couldn't stand up straight and it was sort of like I was clenching myself if you can understand that? I tried to relax my pelvis but the pain was too great. I eventually got to sleep because the pain subsided after lying still for a while. Still had it when I went to work today. I can't feel it now but I'm sitting still.
Any other ladies experienced this? Any idea what the heck is going on here? I've never had this trouble before.
A way to see what's going on, is to go without sex for a few days, if the pain goes away, fine and tell him about it so that you do not suffer, but if it persists you should check your doctor.
It does not sound common enough to tell you the truth, after an extensive and deep penetration there are other things that i've heard or experience but this no.
Posted January 15 2012 - 06:50 AM
.... but if it persists you should check your doctor.
You think he/she is causing the pain? Hmmm .....
Posted January 15 2012 - 06:54 AM
You think he/she is causing the pain? Hmmm .....
no, that's what i tell her to see her doctor because if she refrains from sex but the symptoms insist, then it has nothing to do with sex and there is a problem there. Actually i think that the first should be to see her doctor if this is too much but anyway...i guess she might want to be sure that sex is not the source of her problem in order to do something.

My advice is do not fool around with this condition and get evaluated ASAP.
Posted April 13 2012 - 05:42 PM
I had similar symptoms and it turned out to be caused by two ovarian cysts. Anytime we had sex I would have sharp pains. My husband is large and likes to pound it. It got to the point that any slight penetration caused pain. One night I started spotting and the pain was so bad that my husband took me to emergence. After two vaginal exams (I hate hospital exams) a Gynecologist was called and she examined me and really pushed her fingers in and felt my abdomen. She determined that I had 2 small masses in my ovaries, after another exam where another doctor inserted a vaginal probe; anyway after evaluated the test results the Gynecologist recommended that I have surgery to determine if the cysts were cancerous/malignant. They were found to be early stage cancerous . The two cysts were removed and after some therapy I am now considered cancer free. The only thing I dislike is that I have to have vaginal exams every six months and two specialist's exam me. I feel like every one at that clinic has had a look see at my kitty. I can tell you that I really have one sore vagina after each visit!:(
My advice is do not fool around with this condition and get evaluated ASAP.
^ Question: How has this impacted your sex life? Can you even have one when you're undergoing treatment after the surgery?

A way of keeping politicians honest
PUBLISHED: 07 Feb 2012 00:04:31 | UPDATED: 07 Feb 2012 00:31:54PUBLISHED: 07 Feb 2012 PRINT EDITION: 07 Feb 2012Kris Kempson
While many voters are appalled at the lack of consistency displayed by the federal Labor Party in sticking to the policies it created in order to win and form government, very few are taking seriously the threat that this could and probably will happen again.
An opportunity exists for Opposition Leader Tony Abbott to further leverage the perception of Labor's politically expedient inconsistency by promising that an Abbott government would hold a referendum to make a constitutional amendment prohibiting governments from implementing a policy that is materially the opposite of the policy it took to the last election.
This constitutional amendment would still allow governments to change policies, however they would need to wait until the next election to implement those policy changes so voters have a chance to vote on policies before they become law.
Any breaches of this constitutional amendment could be contested and adjudicated on in the High Court.
Admittedly, there would need to be some exceptions for matters of national defence and some other serious and unforeseen threats to the national interest.
Additionally, to limit abuse, input into the drafting could be sought from constitutional scholars to ensure any exceptions were not overly broad (or have unintended consequences). Perhaps The Australian Financial Review's Hearsay columnists could even suggest a few names.
Would an Abbott government improve the integrity of Australian politics? Adopting this policy would certainly assist voters to come to that view.

With Halloween on a Friday this year, business for the fright night is boo-ming
In a customized cheerleader outfit that read "Team Caroline," Kelly Howell sprinted around a lively costume party on the grounds of the National Ornamental Metal Museum.
Howell hosted the pre-Halloween fundraiser last week to benefit her 8-year-old niece, Caroline Turns, who is undergoing treatment for a form of pancreatic cancer.
"Everyone loves to dress up and have fun and have a reason to get together for a good cause," Howell said.
Combining ghoul and goodwill, the bash raised about $10,000 to help with Caroline's medical bills.
As Howell's party illustrates, despite fears of a recession, Halloween revelers are celebrating and spending.
According to the National Retail Federation, the average shopper plans to spend $66.54 on Halloween supplies this year. That's up from $64.82 in 2007.
"I would say that with the holiday being on a Friday, that tends to overrule what the economy looks like, because more people have an opportunity to be involved," said Michael Mezo, store manager for Party City on Poplar. "They're buying the more expensive props. They're buying that extra item to help with the appearance of their houses."
Mezo said the store's hottest new products in Halloween home decor are 70-inch spiders that can be hung from balconies. He said customers are are also buying The Webcaster Gun, which, when attached to an air compressor, turns hot glue into gossamer-thin cobwebs. The spider sells for $99.99 and the glue gun (sans air compressor) sells for $49.99.
From politicians to pop culture icons, eclectic sources are inspiring this year's costume trends. Barack Obama and John McCain masks
are among the biggest-selling costumes for adults, but there are some less predictable favorites emerging as well, said Mezo.
A lot of women are buying sexy costumes of storybook characters -- a provocative Little Red Riding Hood is one of the most popular, he said.
Other surprising contenders are costumes inspired by the comic-book-turned-movie "Iron Man," said Mezo.
"When the movie actually came out, we were having a hard time selling the merchandise -- the cups, plates and napkins -- and we thought it was going to be a flop. Then all of a sudden, everybody wanted Iron Man as their Halloween costume," he explained.
Halloween is Party City's busiest holiday, and Mezo expects this Halloween to be one of the most profitable in his four years with the company.
C.J. Lilly & Co.A flower shop may seem like an unusual place to buy spooky decor, but Halloween is in bloom at C.J. Lilly & Co. in Collierville.
On a recent afternoon, head florist Carol Butler busily arranged "boo-quets" with rubber snakes entangled in tulips, plastic spiders lingering on lemon-colored roses and glow sticks illuminating lilies. The 2-foot-tall centerpieces sell for about $100.
"All of these could be done on a smaller scale. That's generally what we do as florists is work within people's budgets," said Butler.
While analysts are forecasting a bleak Christmas shopping season, consumers seem to be casting their budget anxieties aside for Halloween.
The last day of October won't erase economic woes or political worries, but the freaky Friday may provide a much needed day of escapism for hedge fund managers and hockey moms alike.

Halloween on a Dime
Although splurging on unconventional products can add flair to your Halloween festivities, local party planner Andria Lewis of Andria Lewis Events said don't forget the time-tested, inexpensive essentials.
"I think at any Halloween party, Michael Jackson's 'Thriller' has to be played. That's the ultimate spooky song," said Lewis.
Like music, lighting helps set the ambience of a party. During a party, Lewis recommends dimming overhead lights and adding single-use Floralytes to vases of water and plants. They cost $10 to $20 a pack.
An even more cost-effective option is replacing regular light bulbs with black-light bulbs. The bulbs cost about $3 and are available at most party stores and some drug stores.
Keep the lights on in one room so that guests can take photos. To create a cheap photo backdrop, hang a black sheet covered with cotton balls stretched into cobwebs, Lewis suggested.
If you are serving alcohol, invent a signature punch using vodka, because a little bit of the potent liquor goes a long way. Give the brew a creative name like "Frankenstein's Moonshine" and serve with gummy worms frozen in ice cubes.
"It's all about the little touches," added Lewis. "It doesn't cost a lot to do something for Halloween."

Overkill Rock Hometown Crowd in New Jersey – Exclusive Photos
Overkill rocked the Starland Ballroom as part of their tour in support of their latest album, 'White Devil Armory.'
Overkill rocked the Starland Ballroom as part of their tour in support of their latest album, 'White Devil Armory.'
We know you've been thrashing to Overkill's newest album, 'White Devil Armory,' so we invited vocalist Bobby Blitz into our studio to talk all about the new record!
Like he does onstage, Blitz always brings the energy. In this exclusive interview, the shrieking singer goes in-depth on the 'Armorist' character, guit
Blitz sets the record straight on how he got his nickname, the beginnings of Overkill, a failed terrorist attack that almost canceled a NYC gig and much more.
Overkill frontman Bobby Blitz revealed that while hospitalized in Germany, he was mistakenly told he had six months to live.
Overkill have made it to the Death Match Hall of Fame. After winning four consecutive Death Matches against some of metal's best current acts, Overkill's 'Armorist' now joins the immortal tracks housed in our sacred Hall.
Overkill started their journey to the Hall of Fame in the best way possible: beating Slayer by an impressive mar
It's not every day that you get a peek into bassist D.D. Verni's fairly low-key Gear Recording Studio, but this clip showcases the inside of Overkill central.
Will Overkill gain entrance into the sacred Hall? Or will Corrosion of Conformity burn away Overkill's chances?
From the band's upcoming 17th studio album, 'White Devil Armory,' Overkill have unveiled a music video for the new track 'Bitter Pill.'
We're premiering Part 1 of Overkill's behind-the-scenes look into the making of 'White Devil Armory.'
Do Overkill have enough weapons to defend their armory? Or can Grave Digger bury their American opponents?

The New Ulm City Council this (TUE) evening is scheduled to vote on the final permit needed for M-R Paving to take over the management of the city's compost and burn site. The approval of a Conditional Use Permit for the site is on the agenda this evening which would finalize the move. Residents will still be able to drop of yard waste free of charge at the compost site, and the lease will save the city around $30,000 annually, and bring in rental income. M-R will be selling the compost generated at the site along with other products, and will also expand the site's hours of operation. In other business this evening, the council will consider establishing Tax Increment Financing districts for apartment complexes under construction. TIF funds are generated by properties paying property taxes, then having a portion of those taxes refunded to the business. Today's New Ulm City Council meeting begins at 5pm at City Hall.

BACKGROUND: The appropriate control of mitotic entry and exit is reliant on a series of interlocking signaling events that coordinately drive the biological processes required for accurate cell division. Overlaid onto these signals that promote orchestrated cell division are checkpoints that ensure appropriate mitotic spindle formation, a lack of DNA damage, kinetochore attachment, and that each daughter cell has the appropriate complement of DNA. We recently discovered that AMP-activated protein kinase (AMPK) modulates the G2/M phase of cell cycle progression in part through its suppression of mammalian target of rapamycin (mTOR) signaling. AMPK directly phosphorylates the critical mTOR binding partner raptor inhibiting mTORC1 (mTOR-raptor rapamycin sensitive mTOR kinase complex 1). As mTOR has been previously tied to mitotic control, we examined further how raptor may contribute to this process. METHODOLOGY/PRINCIPAL FINDINGS: We have discovered that raptor becomes highly phosphorylated in cells in mitosis. Utilizing tandem mass spectrometry, we identified a number of novel phosphorylation sites in raptor, and using phospho-specific antibodies demonstrated that raptor becomes phosphorylated on phospho-serine/threonine-proline sites in mitosis. A combination of site-directed mutagenesis in a tagged raptor cDNA and analysis with a series of new phospho-specific antibodies generated against different sites in raptor revealed that Serine 696 and Threonine 706 represent two key sites in raptor phosphorylated in mitosis. We demonstrate that the mitotic cyclin-dependent kinase cdc2/CDK1 is the kinase responsible for phosphorylating these sites, and its mitotic partner Cyclin B efficiently coimmunoprecipitates with raptor in mitotic cells. CONCLUSIONS/SIGNIFICANCE: This study demonstrates that the key mTOR binding partner raptor is directly phosphorylated during mitosis by cdc2. This reinforces previous studies suggesting that mTOR activity is highly regulated and important for mitotic progression, and points to a direct modulation of the mTORC1 complex during mitosis.

Audience Reviews
Terrific heist flick and one of the best British films I've ever seen. It starts off quite slowly, but gradually gets better as the plot moves along. The pacing is absolutely brilliant (which to me is always a key element when it comes to my overall enjoyment of the story) and it also features a great deal of interesting characters. I had a preconception that it wouldn't be anything special, but I couldn't have been more wrong. Because this transcends itself high above the usual standard, and even surpasses films like Snatch and Ocean's Eleven (altough they have a little higher re-watch value). That being said, this is positively something I can recommend in good conscience. A true sleeper hit!
- CloudStrife84, Sunday, October 31, 2010
Just such a cool movie and excellent heist plot. Usually movies like this are either too silly or too serious, this balanced every emotion perfectly. Not only is it on par with Lock, Stock and Two Smoking Barrels, in many ways it's better. I love the 70s look and feel, it added a lot of personality and separated itself from the Ocean's movies or ones like it. Jason Statham not only has the coolest personality known to mankind, he'll beat you to a pulp in ten seconds flat and steal your girlfriend whilst jump kicking you in the face. This is not a throwaway plot at all, it sticks with you and delivers on all expectations.

Burning Oil? Drained less than put in
I have an '09 Tacoma with 91,000km on it. Yesterday when I did an oil change (after 8,000km with no top-ups), I noticed that I drained out approximately 0.7 litres/quarts less than I put in. I dumped the filter into the drain pan and let it mostly drain out, so I don't think it was holding much. So my question is, does the 2TR-FE block and oil system hold ~1/2 a quart you can't get out easily, or am I burning oil?
All engines use some oil over the course of use. There is also no possible way besides a tear down to get all the oil you put in back out. I've drained as much as 4 1/2 qts after my first change after the factory fill. Yours seems very normal, so carry on. I'm also pretty sure that it takes 1/2 qt of oil just to coat the engine.
OK cool, thanks for the reply.
Where was it on the stick before draining? I always check that just for reference. (Actually, I also check at least every 500 miles.) As long as it doesn't pass below that bottom mark, you're golden.
x2 that it's impossible for a piston engine to not use at least a small amount of oil. Toyota says anything less than a quart in 600 miles is acceptable. Fortunately for us their motors tend to be FAR more frugal. |
It was about halfway between the marks on the dipstick before draining. That being said there has been discussion on this site about the dipstick marks being incorrect on the 4 cylinder.
I find the dipstick quite difficult to read as it always smears on the way up the tube. When the oil is new synthetic, it's nearly impossible for me to get a reliable reading. |

Bosch Dishwasher Auto Cycle Time Increase?
All of a sudden our Bosch dishwasher has increased the Auto cycle time from about 100-105 to now 130-135. Don't recall any in between setting. It was just a step change from the 100 range to 130.
My recollection is that this can be a soil sensor issue. I have run a clean cycle twice now, once with citric acid, and the second time with vinegar. No real change in time selected.
What do you think. Needs more cleaning? Or do I need to find the sensor and clean it manually or replace it? Any tips on where it is and how difficult it is to get out?
OK, you forced me into a man's worst nightmare - reading the owners manual! However, it kind of confuses things even more. It does seem to suggest the display reads in total minutes (not hours:minutes).
But cycle times do not seem to match the manual. Normal wash seems low, while Auto is higher than what the manual says is maximum. Seems like the manual is wrong, or the electronics are acting funny.
The model is a SilencePlus 46 dBA, SHE55R52UC/64.
I did find an excellent youtube video that shows how to replace the sensor. Ouch, that is ugly! It looks like the dishwasher was built starting with the sensor, and everything else was installed around it. What were they thinking!
I have a feeling we are going to run it on Normal and see how that works, unless somebody has some magic tips on how to get that sensor out easier? And I hope it is not the electronics. That is what killed our last dishwasher.
Here is a link that might be useful: Bosch Turbidity Sensor Replacement
The purpose of the sensor is to shorten the cycles if it senses low soil content.
There is no harm in not replacing your sensor. Your dishwasher will still clean fine it just defaults to full time for each cycle instead of shortening them.
As to the manual, Bosch puts in the average expected wash times based on a specific soil level.
"But cycle times do not seem to match the manual. Normal wash seems low, while Auto is higher than what the manual says is maximum. Seems like the manual is wrong, or the electronics are acting funny."
Normal wash in our 800+ model, according to the owners manual, runs ten minutes shorter and the target water temp is not as hot. I don't know if the Normal cycle senses soil in the water. I figure the longer time for Auto allows time for the internal water heater to engage and heat the water beyond our home hot water heater's setting.
Is your rinse aid dispenser empty? When ours runs out, the DW adds approx. 20 or 30 minutes to the Auto cycle.
On the rise aid, I just filled it a couple of days before, so that should not be the issue.
That picture looks like the image in the video I posted a link to. Easy to pull the sensor out, but you have pretty much tear the whole dishwasher apart to get to that point though.
On the cycle times here is what my manual says:
Cycle - Heavy - Auto - Normal - Half Load
Normal - 135 - 95-119 - 115 - 99
Sanitize - 135 - 105-135 - 125 - 120
And here is what the dishwasher currently displays:
Cycle - Heavy - Auto - Normal - Half Load
Normal - 117 - 129 - 92 - 100
Sanitize - 123 - 135 - 104 - 107
I have no idea if those are typical for what it used to be, as we only use Auto with the Sanitize turned off. It pretty much always displays 100-105 minutes. I presume that is the time the last cycle ran, and it is estimating the next cycle will take the same, but I'm just guessing that.
Now It started at 135 when I first noticed it odd. After three acid washes it has come down to 129. Perhaps I will give it a few more loads in normal and then try another acid wash.
Things are going from bad to worse. Still have long or weird cycle times, and now it is not fully draining at the end of the cycle. Tried different cycles and seems to make no difference -- not draining. When I can get it to pump by starting a cycle and then cancelling it, the pump out flow seems pretty good.
Any thoughts on what to try next?
Easy to pull the sensor out, but you have pretty much tear the whole dishwasher apart to get to that point though.
No, you remove one side panel. The dishwasher has a self-test cycle, which tests all the components. Judging purely by what the procedure on similar Bosch dishwashers is, Heavy and Normal should engage the test cycle.
Here is a link that might be useful: page 59
High loop is in place. Hose was replaced the last time I had an issue. Found no food in it this time. Also checked pump and pump check valve. All good.
When I try the test cycle, I get a C3 then PO display. Auto led lights, and Normal flashes. Test cycle does not run. No idea what to make of it. I've read a few manuals posted on line, but they don't seem specific enough to this model to be useful.

Called Bosch customer service. They are next to useless. Was given a procedure to "cold reboot" the electronics to factory defaults. It did nothing and I suspect the procedure was bogus. He didn't even keep track of what model I had.
Had to call service repair locally. There is a one week waiting list to get someone to look at it.
The honeymoon with Bosch is over! Their service stinks. LG will take you through a troubleshooting procedure over the phone and read the codes to let you know what is wrong. Bosch is in the stone age.
Cold Reboot? There's no such thing. What were they telling you?
C3 refers to Code 3. Bosch stores several software versions (each representing a different set of cycles) on one software module. Depending on which C (there's 1 to 6, I think) is activated, you get different cycles.
You could ask on a different forum (specialised in appliance repair) for the correct procedure.
Well I solved part of the problem. The issue of water not being pumped out "sometimes" turned out to be the inlet water valve passing. If you looked at the load right after the cycle completed there was no water. However if it sat overnight or even a few hours, then there was water. I replaced the water valve for $32. While on the front and only needed the removal of two covers, it reminded me of how awkward the Bosch is to install and work on. It has a taller tub and very little space to work under the tub without removing the whole thing.
However that was not the solution to the increased cycle times. Finally got a call back from the Bosch service man who uses an answering service. By then I had replaced the inlet valve. Questioned him about the strange times on the display, and it quickly became clear it really knew nothing about the Bosch or at least this particular model. He just said not to worry about what the displayed cycle time was, and just run it... Good way to solve a warranty problem!
On the cold reboot, that is my term, and is based on deleting the volatile memory. The Bosch service called it a reset to factory defaults. I based my conclusion that it was the incorrect procedure on the fact that it never changed the predicted cycle time in Auto. It should return to the normal new factory default time.
I guess I will keep fumbling along trying to guess the right way to reset it. I'm quite sure it is possible.

Perry expected to win in Texas
Never before have so many governorships been up for grabs -- and with so much at stake.
The races come just ahead of once-in-a-decade congressional and legislative redistricting to reflect the U.S. population of the 2010 census, a process in which governors will play a central role.
Of the 37 governorships on the ballot, more than half are open seats and many of the contests are in prime 2012 presidential battleground states.
Democrats control 26 governorships and must defend 19 in November.
Sheer math, the sour economy and historical trends favoring the out-of-power party in midterm elections suggest big Republican statehouse gains.
Both parties are pumping resources into high-profile campaigns in populous California, Texas and Florida, all won by Republicans four years ago.
Texas Gov. Rick Perry, a Republican, is favored over Democratic former Houston Mayor Bill White, but Democrats are pouring a lot of money into the race and hoping for an upset.
