Volvo's muscle car talks the torque
Volvo's determination to throw off its straitlaced image isn't a recent thing. The Swedish company (now owned by Ford) has been trying to convince us for years that it no longer builds safe-but-boring cars.
Early attempts at changing our minds about the brand were equal parts product and marketing driven - although some of these alleged performance products were a bit weird at the time.
For instance, who could forget the 740 Turbo, which used the big, boxy 7-Series sedan body with a huge turbocharger bolted on to its neanderthal four-cylinder engine.
It seems unlikely now, and even then it was regarded as left-of-centre rather than a mainstream performance car.
As the years rolled on, Volvo continued to crank out higher-performance models of its bread-and-butter stuff, including the very serious 850 T5 of the mid-'90s.
Even more recently, Volvo unleashed an accomplished performance vehicle in the S60R, a car that still stands as the company's most powerful model.
The basic S60 had a fair bit in common with the S80 below the waterline but it was a smaller, more compact-looking car that used a four-door layout with a vaguely coupe-like appearance.
Slower versions of the basic S60 used Volvo's front-wheel-drive layout, but in R form the car was endowed with an all-wheel-drive system. It wasn't an optimum set-up, however, because it only amounted to a front-wheel-drive with on-demand all-wheel-drive via a centre-differential.
The set-up's problem was it sent drive to the rear wheels only after the on-board computer had detected slip at the front wheels, making it reactive rather than truly active.
Nevertheless, it did give the car extra grip when needed most, a situation helped by Volvo's DSTC (traction control and an electronic stability program). Even better was that the DSTC was not as intrusive as many similar systems, meaning even the keenest drivers needn't be tempted to turn it off.
The suspension layout of the basic S60 was retained but the details included a high-tech set of dampers (shock absorbers). Called active damping, the system was a joint development between Volvo and suspension specialist Ohlins.
The car's computer monitored what the suspension was doing up to 500 times per second and then tailored the damper's characteristics to suit at up to 15 times per second. Proof of the sophistication of the system came with the knowledge that each damper was adjusted individually rather than in pairs.
If it all sounds pretty heavy-duty, that's because the powerplant in the S60R was hard-core as well.
Displacing 2.5 litres, the five-cylinder engine was based on the 154 kW version fitted to lesser S60 variants. But unlike versions which used a low turbocharger boost pressure, the S60R got a lot more boost and emerged with a rippling 220 kW.
And that turbo-motor forte, torque, was available in huge helpings, with 350 Nm at the engine's peak, most of which was available from as low as 2000 rpm.
That sort of monster torque curve made the S60R feel relaxed with good part-throttle response, but push the accelerator pedal all the way to the floor and it really lifted its skirts.
Forget the Volvo badge on the grille; by any standards, the S60R is a rapid car.
Gearbox choices consisted of a five-speed automatic with Volvo's version of tiptronic control allowing the driver to shift manually. But if that was your agenda, you were probably better off with the conventional six-speed manual, which made the most of the engine's huge performance.
Mind you, even with the automatic fitted, the engine's thrust still made the car very, very quick.
The image and performance might have been distinctly unlike Volvos of years past, but one thing hadn't changed: safety was still very much on the agenda.
You can count on front and side air-bags, seat-belt pretensioners and the full complement of electronic aids including anti-lock brakes, stability control, brake-force distribution and traction control.
Throw in a long, long list of convenience and luxury gear and it just goes to show that no matter how fast or sexy you make a Volvo, it will still make sense on a cerebral level.
Need to know
- Servicing is straightforward, thanks to the engine's robust design, but it will still cost more to run than many cars.
- Any noises or clunks from the driveline are bad news. There are lots of components down there and they can wear out.
- Uneven tyre wear suggests wheel-alignment problems.

Joe Walsh might just put the old band back together.
Led Zeppelin have emerged victorious from their lawsuit, and reactions from the rock world are already coming in.
The tour, which began May 12 in Dallas and continues through July 3 in Nashville, has been appropriately dubbed "One Hell of a Night."
Joe Walsh called out his brother-in-law to join him on the encore.
Joe Walsh will keep on touring after he finishes his co-headlining dates with Bad Company.
Bad Company and Joe Walsh kicked off their One Hell of a Night tour in Dallas last night with career-spanning set lists highlighting successes from their storied pasts.
Joe Walsh once ran a tongue-in-cheek campaign for the presidency, but that doesn't mean he wants to be associated with this year's race.
The two acts have one date booked together, although only Walsh has confirmed it.
My Video Pick for today is Godsmack's remake of old school Joe Walsh! Joe Walsh is from The Eagles and James Gang. He has done solo albums as well...

The days when motorists could pick up speeding tickets and other fines on the Continent, then flee for the safety of home, were brought to an end yesterday.
In a major expansion of pan-European law enforcement, EU justice ministers adopted new rules that will oblige member states to enforce each other's fines and court-ordered financial penalties for criminal conduct.
Under the rules adopted in Brussels, a tourist given a fine or fixed penalty notice for any amount over £50 while in another EU country, could face the shock of a court summons, or policeman on the doorstep, long after returning.
The change, proposed by Britain with French and Swedish backing, will mean the authorities in each member state being obliged to seek collection of any fine or penalty over £50, as soon as they are informed that one of their nationals or residents owes the money.
British officials stressed that the main aim was to allow major court judgments and fines to be collected, and to close the "loophole" whereby they are ignored with impunity, simply by fleeing to another EU state.
Britain decided to seek new legislation after the collapse of a walkway leading to a ferry in Ramsgate in 1994, killing six people. The Swedish firms that built the walkway was fined £1 million which it has refused to pay.
However, the bulk of the court orders and fines are likely to be smaller fare, especially as driving offences are included.
The rule is already binding on all 25 member states, thanks to its adoption by EU justice and home affairs ministers yesterday. They have two years to write national laws implementing the rule, which will come into full force in 2007.
As an incentive for overworked courts and police officers to follow up on such foreign requests, EU ministers agreed, after some haggling, that the authorities who collect the fine will keep the proceeds, rather than send them back to the original scene of the crime.
It will not be a defence to argue that the crime committed while overseas is not a crime back home, for example because drink-driving or speed limits vary from country to country.
National authorities will have limited grounds to decline the task of collecting a fine.
Exemption will apply if the fine falls below the £50 threshold, or if paperwork is not in order, or if the alleged offender is below the age of criminal responsibility in his or her home country.
• A driver given a £30 fixed penalty notice for brushing his hair while stuck in rush-hour traffic, had the fine quashed yesterday.
Stephen Lynch, a 35-year-old father of two, successfully challenged what he called the "ridiculous fine" at Peterborough magistrates' court.
The court agreed that the police failed to prove beyond reasonable doubt that he did not have proper control over his Ford Focus.

An Inspiring Teacher Turns 32 Talented But Untrained High School Students Into One "Big Voice"
January 25, 2017 — High school choir director Jeffe Huls does not have an easy job. He has to take charge of 32 teenagers and turn them into "One Big Voice."
Big Voice is a documentary chronicling a year in the life of Huls, his students and the choir group that he attempts to build. It will not be an easy year. Even though these young people auditioned for their places in the Santa Monica High School choir — and despite the fact that Huls recognizes that this combination of voices may be the most sublime he has ever worked with — teenagers are often not inclined to do anything that feels like work. Or anything that takes time away from the social aspects of their lives. Or anything that other kids might not understand or respect.
And the kids involved in this choir have real life issues that they are dealing with as well — family issues, overwhelming workloads, ego problems, social problems, homelessness — that can sometimes make singing 13th century music in a choir seem unimportant.
But Mr. Huls finds ways to involve them, to keep them showing up, and to inspire them to give up ego-driven pursuits to work with other students as a team — a musical team.
By the time these students are ready to perform their year-end Choral recital, they have learned that their hard work, dedication, commitment and discipline have paid off in ways they could not have anticipated when they signed on.
Big Voice is available on Blu-ray and DVD or you can stream it immediately on Amazon Video.

You can buy third party tools that will make this simple, such as ScanSoft, or you can use free utilities such as GhostScript that make it almost as easy, but I don't know of a native Excel tool that will make PDF files.

You can't, that I know, do it programatically unless you send key events to the print dialog. (Which is klugey.)
You also can't get nifty PDF features like hyperlinks or bookmarks.

Re: Excel to PDF
Hey guys! I see you have a problem converting excel to pdf. I ran into that awhile ago, and I found a similar program to be quite useful, especially in business. At my work we use this program that quickly and painlessly converts my excel documents into pdf, taking away agonizing hours of manually entering all the information (such as statistics, invoices, etc.). It provides my business a simple way to make individualized statements for our business associates. Check it out here: Excel to PDF

|No Intervention: Control
Detailed Description:
Stroke is one of the main reasons of mortality and morbidity all over the world. In economically developed countries stroke takes 2 or 3 place in the structure of morbidity and mortality. In animal models, it was shown that autological stem cells transplantation significantly increased perfusion of ischemic area and improved lost motor and sensor functions. Granulocyte-colony stimulating factor (G-CSF) was used in some clinical trials without following autological transplantation. However, there are no enough evidence-based proved results of G-GSF safety and effectiveness in acute ischemic stroke. In order to determine safety and efficiency of G-CSF administration together with conventional treatment and conventional intensive care protocol during acute ischemic stroke we organized this clinical trial.

Here we see it happen to two people at the same time…
Checkerboard floors are required in the occult for the summoning of archons and reptilians (duality). I believe there may be some kind of connection to these anomalies.

A while ago I was at the Festival of Quilts in Birmingham and met the editor of Popular Patchwork Magazine. We got chatting about my wee shop and she really liked the sound of it so said she would write a piece for the magazine. I wasn't sure if I should believe her or not, my wee shop is not full of thousands of bolts of fabric like many you see in magazines, only a couple of hundred (at the moment - *hears my husband groan*). I didn't think there would be enough to write about, but she did come over to Barony HQ to do an interview and take lots of photos. I still didn't think she would really put it in the magazine, but the December issue is now in the shops, and there is a little piece on me! It features some of my Moda Flurry Christmas Fabrics and some Christmas Bunting featuring letters cut using my Slice Fabrique. I've never been in a national magazine before (although, I was once on the centre page of the Daily Mail for standing on a plinth for an hour!). A big thank you to Jane.

Themis Computer today announced the addition of system management and
networking modules for their Intel (News - Alert)®-based RES-XR4 high density (HD)
server product line. The new Themis Resource Manager and Mellanox-based,
high-speed switch modules add new network facing functionality,
minimizing the number of network interconnects and administrative effort
required to scale high density, integrated server and storage systems.

RES-XR4-Switch Module
The RES-XR4-Switch module occupies one of four HD chassis slots with a
12-port, managed 56 Gb/s Infiniband VPI SDN/40GBe switch system that
delivers up to 1.3Tb/s of non-blocking bandwidth and 200ns port-to-port
latency. The Switch module enables data centers to scale out with
Fourteen Data Rate (FDR) Infiniband. Mellanox (News - Alert) switching technology
provides industry-leading performance, power, and density. The HD hosted
switch also interoperates with existing networks, supports Software
Defined Networks (SDN), and provides fabric management for cluster and
converged I/O applications.
"Faster servers with PCIe 3.0 access to high-performance storage and
compute intensive applications are escalating data bandwidth
requirements at an ever increasing rate. As more servers with next
generation processors are deployed, embedded system environments and
fast storage will require the bandwidth that we are delivering with
Mellanox's new, FDR InfiniBand high-speed, low latency smart switches,"
says Bill Kehret, President and CEO of Themis.
The RES-XR4-TRM Resource Manager Module
The Themis Resource Manager (RES-XR4-TRM) module is an out-of-band
resource management system that occupies one of four HD chassis slots.
The Resource Manager Module provides 14 ports that enable remote,
independent initialization,administration, and monitoring of the health
and environment of up to 14 HD modules, RES servers, or related
computing infrastructure equipment. The Resource Manager provides KVM
(Keyboard, Video, Mouse) functionality over IP to provide access to the
console of any attached server for complete in-band control of that
system. Multiple KVM windows to different machines may be open and
operating concurrently. The Resource Manager also discovers and assigns
IP addresses to managed systems when they are connected to the manager.
Monitoring features include fault data history. Analytics and prognostic
features are also available as an option.
The Resource Manager provides a single user interface for easy access to
managed systems' service processors, displaying information obtained
from these processors in a converged dashboard view. Themis' i7 based
Resource Manager leverages open standards such as Open Stack Dashboard
(Horizon) and Zabbix, a highly efficient, enterprise-class open source
distributed monitoring solution for networks and applications.
The RES-XR4 High Density System
Featuring four chassis slots and enhanced reliability features, the 2U
RES-XR4-HD system chassis houses stand-alone, hot-pluggable processor,
storage (HDS, HDFS, and HDS8), high-speed switching, and system
management module options. Customers can combine different module types
to define system functionality and meet their requirements. Designed
with leading edge components that include Intel® Xeon® E5 2600 V2 Series
processors and Supermicro motherboards, processor modules support up to
three 56 Gb/sec Infiniband (IB) or 40 Gb Ethernet ports to provide
industry leading I/O bandwidth (One Mellanox Connect-X3 port controller
on the base board and two Connect-X3 port Controllers on the PCI (News - Alert)-e
Slot). A FDR option supports 56 Gb/sec IB or 40 Gb/sec Ethernet via a
QSFP module connector. Alternatively a QDR option supports 40 Gb/sec IB
or 10 Gb/sec Ethernet. Each processor module also has a PCIe expansion
slot that can be used to supports two additional FDR or QDR ports.
Suited for enhanced reliability computing environments where server
Size, Weight, and Power (SWAP) is important, RES-XR4 HD servers can be
mounted in standard commercial racks or mobile rugged transit cases and
incorporate thermal and kinetic management techniques to mitigate the
affects of shock, vibration, and extended temperature. Themis RES-XR4
High Density Servers deliver high performance, double compute density,
enable a 50% rack space savings and reduce system weight by nearly 50%,
relative to single motherboard based rack and stack alternatives.
"Designed for virtualization, ISR, Big Data Analytics, radar processing,
image processing, and large Hadoop cluster applications, Themis RES-XR4
HD systems can be used in a multitude of applications that require
high-compute density and low latency access to large-data storage", said
Product Specifications
Complete HD system product specifications are available on the Themis
web site (www.themis.com/HD).
Pricing and Availability
The new RES-HD server modules are now available. Please contact Themis
for more information, including configuration options and pricing.

Seven ways to make money on the Internet – no scams!
Photo: U$D by Paul Keller
In the last 10 years while I was mulling quitting my job to become a stay-at-home Mom, the Internet became the BIG thing. Its use became widespread and has revolutionized many people's lives – including thousands of women who discovered that they could make money at home. In their pajamas. When I learned about this, I became even more optimistic that I can make this WAHM thing work.
I've been researching about different ways to make money through the Internet. Most of the time, what I discovered were scams. Almost made me want to forget the whole thing. I am particularly averse to schemes that you have to pay to join and the only way to make money is by selling the same scheme to others! Some seemed legitimate enough, but I didn't like the idea of making money without actually providing anything valuable.
However, I did find some legitimate money-making ideas. Below is a list of some of the ways that a Mom (or anyone else for that matter) could make money on the Internet, including a brief description and the pros and cons of each one:
1. Sell products online.
This is probably the most common way for a person to make money on the Internet. If you like to make things as a hobby, now is the time to cash in on it! Many of my sewing and knitting friends sell their handmade goods on Etsy. Selling online is now much easier than selling in a brick-and-mortar store. If you don't want to make the products yourself, you can "buy and sell". That is, source out the products you think there is a demand for and sell them online. You could either create our own website or use a collective website for vendors. The most popular selling sites are EBay and Etsy.
- You get to do what you love and make money at the same time.
- If you buy and sell, you no longer need an excuse to shop garage sales.
- If you sell through a selling site instead of your own, you only need basic Internet skills.
- You need to process orders and ship them, which takes time. Shipping items requires you to leave the house.
- When the demand for your products get heavy and you're the only one producing them, you may have to either turn down orders or take time away from your family.
- You may have to invest some money to market your products.
2. Create a monetized blog.
A blog is an online journal or a type of website wherein the contents are arranged in chronological order (newest post to oldest). A blog can be monetized or earn income through advertisers. My Life Shift is an example of this. By providing useful content, I hope to bring potential customers to advertisers who pay me when my blog readers click on their ads or buy products through links in my blog. Notice the Adsense ads on the side and bottom of the site? The other way a blog can make money is through affiliate programs. For example, I am an affiliate of Amazon.com, my all-time favorite online store. Whenever a reader purchases from Amazon through the link on my blog, I get a small commission.Very popular blogs can sell advertising space directly.
- Low-cost setup. Some free blog hosts will allow you to monetize your blog.
- You write about the topics that interest you and are useful to others.
- This is a good way to make passive income. Your blog can keep earning even while you're sleeping.
- You need good writing skills. And you have to write new and useful content regularly.
- You have to know something about the Internet, blogging, search engine optimization and other potentially geeky stuff.
- From what I've heard, income may be slow to come and is not guaranteed. It all depends on how popular your blog becomes.
3. Showcase and offer your skills through a website or blog.
A website can be your online portfolio to "sell" your talents and advertise your services. An example is Skelliewag, an advertisement-free site. However, the site does get the author freelancing and consulting jobs. Other blogs have become so successful that their authors have moved on to publish bestselling books and become paid speakers. Good examples are Angry Chicken and The Yarn Harlot.
- Easy to set up on the Internet. You can use text, photos, audio and video to display your skills.
- Provides an online archive of your best work.
- A good opportunity to create a community of like-minded people.
- May not be applicable to some skills, such as cooking.
- You have to know something about the Internet, blogging, search engine optimization and other potentially geeky stuff.
- Your site needs to be seen by your target market, which means knowing how to drive a particular demographic to your site.
4. Write, publish and sell an E-book or E-mail newsletter.
An E-book is a digital book that is usually distributed in PDF. If you know how to do something unusual, or have a great collection of recipes, or have some really useful but not-so-common information, you might have good material for a best-selling E-book. A newsletter is a regular E-mail that you send to subscribers who pay you for them. Amy Karol of Angry Chicken did this on her blog as well. You can sell your E-book on your own website or blog, or you could use one of many self-publishing sites on the Internet, such as Lulu.com. Newsletters are usually sold on their own websites, or through affiliates.
- Allows you to share yourself and your talents to others.
- An E-book or newsletter can be put together really quickly using computer software and digital photography.
- Another great way to earn passive income.
- You have to write well, or else hire a writer.
- You'll most likely also have to hire a graphic artist to do the book's layout. Unless you don't mind having an amateur-looking book.
- If you don't have a publisher, you have to market the E-book yourself.
5. Ask for donations.
This is another way that bloggers and websites make money, aside from advertising and affiliate programs. Few people think of actually asking for money, but if you believe that your site provides something valuable, then you'll be surprised at how many people would be willing to support the site and, in effect, you. This works better if your site is free of advertising. Good examples are Simple GTD and Steve Pavlina's blog, which claims to make significant amounts through donations.
- Fairly easy. Just ask.
- Another good way of earning passive income.
- You may feel uncomfortable about asking for money.
- Your primary goal must be to provide a valuable service, product or information for free. Donations are optional.
6. Teach a skill online.
If you're really good at something, you can make good money teaching others how to do it, too, but without conducting classes in person. Just put together a step-by-step learning module online and charge a fee to enroll. Depending on the skill involved, you may have to include lots of photos and videos. Provide personal coaching through E-mail, Internet telephone or a Web cam. Students can support each other through an E-group or online forum.
- Builds on what you are already an expert at.
- Teaching is gratifying.
- Allows you to interact with students.
- You have to know the principles of teaching.
- Giving immediate support to your students may take a lot of time.
- You may have to invest some money to produce educational materials, such as hand-outs and videos.
7. Build a website for a specific community.
If you think many other people share a particular interest that you have, and information on that topic is not yet plentiful on the Web, consider creating a website on that topic. The website can earn money in the same ways as a blog does. A good community website provides plenty of useful information, including online discussion boards or forums, reviews, links and other resources. The BabyWearer and Craftster are good examples.
- It costs very little to set up a good website nowadays.
- Excellent opportunity to build a community and interact with like-minded people.
- Building a community takes time as well as marketing and social networking skills.

Minister defends research stations' closure
New South Wales Primary Industries Minister Ian Macdonald has defended the proposed sale of 4,000 acres at the Trangie Agricultural Research Station, in western New South Wales.
Mr Macdonald says the proposed sale should not affect the station's research.
He also clarified that discussions with locals are ongoing and no decision has been made over the Trangie land, nor the proposed closure of a further four research stations.
Mr Macdonald says while up to 4,000 acres of land at Trangie may be sold, there is private land to use for research.
"In this region alone we use considerable numbers of farmers for our research purposes," he said.
"In fact, we have 5,500 plots of research work across all crops in this region and this is utilising partnerships with local farmers."
Meanwhile, the Member for Lachlan, Ian Armstrong, says Mr Macdonald was only paying lip service to people from Temora, Grafton, Gosford, Deniliquin and Wollongbar who argued against shutting the stations and slashing jobs.
The Nationals MP says Mr Macdonald could have saved the delegation the time and expense of a trip to Sydney, claiming the minister has made it clear that reversing the decision to close the stations is not on his agenda.

It has been very difficult to record from interneurons in acute slices of the lumbar spinal cord from mice older than three weeks of age. The low success rate and short recording times limit in vitro experimentation on mouse spinal networks to neonatal and early postnatal periods, when locomotor networks are still developmentally immature. To overcome this limitation and enable investigation of mature locomotor network neurons, we have established a reliable procedure to record from spinal cord neurons in slices from adult, behaviorally mature mice of any age. Two key changes to the established neonate procedure were implemented. First, we remove the cord by a dorsal laminectomy from a deeply anaesthetized animal. This enables respiration and other vital functions to continue up to the moment the maximally oxygenated lumbar spinal cord is removed, improving the health of the slices. Second, since adult spinal cord interneurons appear more sensitive to the intracellular dialysis that occurs during whole cell recordings, we introduced perforated patch recordings to the procedure. Stable recordings up to 12 hours in duration were obtained with our new method. This will allow investigation of changes in mature neuronal properties in disease states or after spinal cord injury, and also allow prolonged recordings of responses to drug application that were previously impossible.

A Letter from Pastor Mark:
I am writing to invite you to a very special series I'm calling "EQUIP."
As I shared on Sunday, [March 19th] recently I've been impressed by the Lord to gather the troops for a very important time of instruction concerning excellence in ministry. There are three words that describe what I have in my heart: EQUIP, EDIFY and EMPOWER.
The first, EQUIP, means perfecting, furnishing and to complete. Ephesians 4:11-12 says, "And He Himself gave some to be apostles, some prophets, some evangelists, and some pastors and teachers, for the equipping of the saints for the work of ministry, for the edifying of the body of Christ." The second word, EDIFY, means to build up and promote growth in another. We all need to be built up and grow in leadership and our service to the Lord. The third word, EMPOWER, means to authorize, delegate, enable, emancipate and to make someone stronger and more confident.
My hope is that during this time you who serve and those who lead our teams will tap into His abounding grace which enables us all to serve and lead with a renewed fervor. There is a stirring in my heart for the gifts that are in you to be stirred up for these days in which we now live. I know it's time for all hands to be on deck.
This series is open to all who are serving, those who desire to serve and all of our Team Leaders and prospective leaders. I am asking you to make this a priority in your schedule because I believe we are in an important time of preparation for what God has prepared for us. The EQUIP series will run for 5 consecutive Wednesday nights from April 12th through May 10th. One of our guest ministers will be Ricky Edwards on May 3rd. Also, we will have a special two-night seminar with Tony Cooke on Tuesday and Wednesday, May 30th and 31st.
Look for the EQUIP banner in the lobby to sign up if you plan to attend or you can go online at heartofthebay.org to sign up. (Preschool and CIA will be available.)
We are looking forward to this time of Equipping, Edifying and Empowering for His glory.
Pastor Mark Thomas

How Much Does the GMAT Change Over Time?
|You should follow me on Twitter. While you're at it, take a moment to subscribe to GMAT Hacks via RSS or Email.
The GMAC is constantly mixing new questions into the test pool and eliminating old ones. I don't know what the lifespan of a typical test item is, but I'd be surprised if it's more than a year or so.
That doesn't mean that the test changes very much. The specific problems may differ, but the format, the content, and the underlying patterns all stay the same.
Hints From the GMAC
As one piece of evidence, consider the Official Guide. The current, 11th, edition was published in September of 2005. A new edition is due soon, but the GMAC doesn't find it necessary to alter their study materials more than once every few years.
As a bit of further, more powerful, evidence, perhaps you've seen the 10th edition of the Official Guide. A large number of those questions reappear in the supplemental Official Guide books, and they still accurately represent what's on the test. (I don't recommend using the 10th edition, but it doesn't make a huge difference.)
From my own perspective, I could've written most of what is in Total GMAT Math five or ten years ago. There are some things I wouldn't have focused on as much, or others I might have highlighted more, but the content I covered would've been nearly identical.
In other words, if you prepared for the GMAT using only those materials that were available in 2000, you wouldn't sacrifice very much test-readiness in September 2008. You might not even notice the difference.
The GMAT Has Changed...A Little
That isn't to say the test is identical. It isn't. One noticeable difference is the difficulty level. The test is scored on a curve, and admissions keep getting more competitive, so every year, it's a little harder to get your target score.
That doesn't mean the content has changed much, though. I started working with GMAT students in 2000, and the topics that people worried about back then (combinations, probability, standard deviation, number properties) are the same one that cause concerns today.
The main difference is the increased pool of difficult questions. If the average test taker is getting stronger, the GMAT must have more items at the high end to distinguish between 730, 740, and 750 scorers. That, I think they've done.
What the Changing GMAT Means To You
It may come as no suprise that the GMAT is getting harder. There's not much you can do about that except to study harder. But apart from a few question types I highlighted in a previous article, you shouldn't alter your preparation strategy as if the GMAT is a different test every month.
If anything, you can use the predictability of the exam to your advantage. When you see a question that looks completely unfamiliar, you can rest assured (at least if you are well prepared) that it relates to something you already know.
The GMAT is a standardized test, and that means you don't have to worry about sudden shifts in content or question types. The stakes may be high, but so is the exam's consistency.
About the author: Jeff Sackmann has written many GMAT preparation books, including the popular Total GMAT Math, Total GMAT Verbal, and GMAT 111. He has also created explanations for problems in The Official Guide, as well as 1,800 practice GMAT math questions.

M.A. George
Book Blurb
Dr. Palta Capal would be a typical American career woman…if only she were human.
She has found her calling in this world as a physician. It's an ideal outlet for her compassionate spirit...and unearthly healing powers.
Palta may spend her nights rereading Jane Austen novels, but she deliberately avoids pursuing her own love story. Human men—attractive as they may be—inevitably grow old and wither, leaving her to grieve in solitude. Frankly, no one has seemed worth the torment.
Enter Eric Moran, the intensely attractive and enigmatic new coworker on the scene. With his quiet confidence and warm smile, he manages to draw Palta's attention. Little does she know that he, too, holds a secret…one that will propel them both into an escalating collision of two worlds.
My Review
5 Stars
If I were to talk to Proximity (yes, I am referring to the book), then "You had me at hello" would be one of the first things out of my mouth. Followed by a few "How could you," "What on earth was that? Are you trying to stop my heart?" and quite a few high fives. The first line of chapter one was a definite hooker, it even made me giggle. Which makes the ending one the sinker because at that point, I was completely hooked and engaged.
*My yes, yes that really just happened, she really took it there face*
In the first chapter alone I highlighted six different things! I rarely highlight much in a book until I'm at least halfway through it. But in Proximity, M.A. George fills the pages with an engaging first person narrative with short vivid descriptions and fills it with personality so you can already see Palta's story beginning to unfold. There aren't a plethora of unnecessary words telling you important details, everything is shown to you through her use of witty dialogue and candid descriptions. For example when Palta starts talking about her hair, the tone is just what you'd expect. "It has the look of perpetual bed head, even after meticulous application of product and skillful use of a blow dryer and straightening iron." I was a fan of Palta within seconds; after all we're both fluent in sarcasm.
Proximity's wide cast of characters breathe life into the plot and keep it moving smoothly until the bitter end. I only say bitter because it ended and I was not okay with being on the last page already. Once Palta finishes introducing you to her family and Eric (the super deliciously sexy smart man that's unaware of her existence) everything starts to happen very fast. Proximity's filled with surprises and moments where you'll stop reading to think over what really just happened. I chose to tweet M.A. George my moments of sheer surprise but other than that, I couldn't stop reading it. The dialogue between Sabella (Palta's sister), their father and her show a strong family dynamic and create a great foundation for Palta's story, helping you understand why she wants to find her place in the world. A lot of the most heart clenching moments occur when she's thinking about her family in the beginning until Eric takes the crown half-way through while he's working toward redemption. (No, I cannot elaborate without spoilers and I had strong feelings about this situation so I would most likely ramble until someone stopped me.)
**I'm serious when I mentioned I was mad at Eric. I sincerely wished to slap him**
However, there was a moment where for me he redeemed himself and boy it was sweet. Highlighted and tweeted. I was very interactive during this book, I couldn't help myself. So I found fans who understood what I was going through. With that being said I did feel like the romance between Eric and Palta was quick, it wasn't forced and considering how fast the story was moving, it made sense. Plus they got points since they did share some disagreements and conflict of ideas, instead of the instant "yes, anything you say" syndrome some female characters suffer from.
M.A. George blended just the right amount of sci-fi and romance together to create a compelling debut novel that leaves readers needing the second installment in the series immediately. She developed a complex world that's unique to Proximity and a different planet from Earth altogether impeccably. They have their own language, government system, way of living and are frankly more advanced in certain areas. M.A. George introduces everything with smooth descriptions throughout the book without overwhelming readers and enabling you to envision the ships, buildings and what it must be like to live there without the story ever taking place there. I enjoyed every minute of reading Proximity and found myself rooting for Palta (and Eric after he earned redemption) throughout the entire novel, biting my nails, squealing in delight/amusement and gasping is surprise/shock and eagerly turning every page.

text: East View Primary School 2006 1,500 views Report Abuse ADDED BY Wan Ting Pat MEMORY OF Wan, Ting Pat DATE 14/11/2006 Many say that Primary School is just a place you "come and go". They say it's a place where you meet friends, go through childish situations, and then forget about the people and what had happened years later. To me, my Primary School days were full of meaningful experiences. From a simple group leader, to the class secretary and finally a school prefect. It was the place I truly grew up. From the very childish girl who would complain to the teacher about the most minor matter, to the girl who understood what real problems were and was eager to have them resolved. From our first crush in class, to finding a person who actually carried mutual feelings towards yourself. From the teasing of each other, to finally admitting a truth. From the first prize won in a Sport's Day competition, to our first achievement in the national SYF competition. To many, they may have forgotten the friends they have met and the teachers who taught them in Primary School. But I still hold on to those memories created and contact the people who crossed my lives, because those are the people who watched me grow up and know who I really am. They believed in me, knowing who I will become later and watched what I have changed to be today. Click here to collapse open conversations Join the conversation

The Black Lillies, Yarn
World Cafe Live - Wilmington Upstairs
500 N. Market St.
Wilmington, DE, 19801
This event is all ages
Black Lillies front man Cruz Contreras knows a thing or two about the road.
After co-founding Robinella and the CCstringband with his wife, he spent nearly a decade traveling the road and making music from coast to coast. When his marriage – and the band – dissolved in 2007, he returned to the road … this time, as the driver of a truck for a stone company. It was here, over a year spent rolling down the highways of East Tennessee, that the songs and sounds that would form the nexus of The Black Lillies were conceived.
And "Runaway Freeway Blues," the band's third studio album, was realized exactly there … on the road. When the Lillies weren't playing their 200-odd gigs during 2012, they were in Wild Chorus Studio in their hometown of Knoxville, Tenn., working with Scott Minor of Sparklehorse to craft a beautiful ode to restless spirits and rambling hearts. Rooted in the mud-rutted switchbacks of Appalachia, "Runaway Freeway Blues" is the sound of a band that's becoming something of a phenomenon across the country.
Contreras and his bandmates – harmony vocalist Trisha Gene Brady, multi-instrumentalist Tom Pryor, bass player Robert Richards and drummer Bowman Townsend – have grown from a few friends sitting around campfires and living rooms to a band that shows up in far-flung cities where folks to whom they've never played before already know the words to the songs. Eschewing record labels, they've still managed to conquer the Billboard Top 200 charts (Runaway Freeway Blues debuted at #43), put three tracks in Country Music Television's top 12 requested videos, and film a nationally broadcast commercial for Twizzlers. They've been featured on numerous television specials and played festivals as widespread as Bonnaroo, Rochester Jazz Festival, MerleFest, and CMA Fan Fair. Despite trafficking in a richer, more authentic brand of country and Americana than what gets played on mainstream country radio, they've still been invited to perform at the Grand Ole Opry more than twenty times – a record for an independent act.
The Black Lillies, in other words, have come a long way from those early days, when Contreras channeled heartache and regret into a stunning debut. "Whiskey Angel" was the sound of a man drowning his sorrows, and an introduction to someone who had languished behind the scenes for too long. As the guy who loaned out his initials to Robinella and the CCstringband, which flirted with national fame a few years ago with a hit ("Man Over") on Country Music Television, an appearance on "Late Night With Conan O'Brien" in 2003, and albums on both Sony and Dualtone, he was known best as a mandolin virtuoso and bandleader.
Starting over, he stunned friends and peers in the East Tennessee music scene with a voice that makes you think of Randy Travis or Dan Tyminski or even the great Ralph Stanley in his prime: steeped in regret, seasoned with pain and tempered in the fires of hard times. It served "Whiskey Angel" well, and when "100 Miles of Wreckage" was released in 2011, the band seemingly burst onto the national stage – spending five solid months in the Americana Music Association's radio charts (four of them in the top 15).
That record was the sound of a man taking stock of his life and his past, regarding the pain and the turmoil with a measure of wistful acceptance. Which brings us to "Runaway Freeway Blues," which finds the band focused on the horizon, filled with the nervous energy of excitement at the unknown future waiting on the other side of that distant hill, enthusiastic about the journey as much as they are about the destination.
The emotional arc of the new record is brilliant, so vivid and detailed with lush harmonies and instrumental virtuosity that's as powerful in the quieter moments as it is explosive during jubilant ones. You can cherry-pick any number of songs from "Runaway Freeway Blues" and find gold. Banjo, pedal steel, piano and everything else lift this record up on wings of uncommon grace and stunning vitality, and when Contreras and Brady combine their voices, it calls to mind classic duets from times long gone: George and Tammy. Gram and Emmylou. Johnny and June. From gentle Laurel Canyon folk rock to the honky-tonk heartache of classic country to winding jams, "Runaway Freeway Blues" is an album that defies easy categorization.
It was conceived on the road, inspired by the road and completed there as well: Contreras mixed the album while on tour, by phone and email, coordinating overdubs and guest instrumental appearances (Josh Oliver, formerly of the everybodyfields; banjo player Matt Menefee, who's toured with Mumford & Sons, Levi Lowery and Big & Rich; and a host of Tennessee's finest musicians on horns, harmonica and percussion) while playing into the wee hours of the morning, driving all night and setting up in the next city to do it all over again.
It's breakneck, brazen and beautiful. It's the sound of a band that's rooted in East Tennessee but more at home piled into a van stacked with gear, windows down and aimed toward the next gig. It's an album that lets long-time fans as well as relative newcomers to the Black Lillies phenomenon know that this train isn't stopping anytime soon.
Brooklyn-based Americana/Alt-Country band Yarn's sound owes as much to Gram Parsons and Earl Scruggs as to Jerry Garcia and Exile On Main Street-era Rolling Stones. Much like its name, the band Yarn weaves country, rock, blues and more into a genre-defying blend that has captured the attention of fans and critics alike. Following in a fine tradition that includes forward thinking roots bands like The Flying Burrito Brothers and New Riders of The Purple Sage. Yarn weaves roots music idioms into a fresh sound that turns on hipsters and fans of country music alike, with technically impressive song-crafting and universal tales from the road of life.
Their self-titled debut record reached No. 14 on the AMA and R&R Radio Charts, and ranked No. 79 on the AMA's Top 100 Albums of 2007
Yarn's 2008 follow-up, EmptyPockets, spent months in the top 5 on the AMA chart & 8 First Round 2009 Grammy Nominations
Yarn's third release, Come on In, held its own as the #25 record on the top 100 Americana chart of 2010.

I guess in a way this is a writing-related post, but I'm delving into this with a migraine. If you've never had a migraine, don't wish for one. Just don't. Save yourself. Today's is a mild one. I took medicine, which is settling the actual pain in my skull to a warning twinge, a constant reminder of the doom that awaits me when the medication wears off.
I finished the outline notes for Blood Diamond, book three of the Witch & Wolf series. That's right. I have the completed outline notes for book three.
I'm looking at a first quarter release for the third book. I'm excited! Winter Wolf will be drafted starting tomorrow. I haven't decided what my goal is, but I may settle for 'one scene per work day' while I address other important things, like client editorial.
Here's where the failure part comes in. I need to do client editorial work today, but with this twingy, evil, energy-sucking migraine, it isn't happening. I feel terrible. Both physically and ethically. I'm going to get at least one chapter done for someone tonight, even if I have to trudge through hell and high water to do so.
The weather isn't helping, I'll just say that much.
If I were super ethics girl, I would be fighting through the pain and finishing all of the editorial work. However, because I have ethics, I won't. I can't do my clients justice. The one project I will work on because his edits are easy. We've been working together for multiple novels, and he is totally used to the days where I'm on pain medication and working. I can make funny comments, and he won't be offended. I can't do this with new clients. He's used to me, my sense of humor, and knows when to ask me what I really meant if I send a note that makes sense only to me.
(By the way, these are among the absolute best business relationships out there. If you ever get an editor or a client you have that rapport with, try not to let them go. They're true gems of priceless value.)
Speaking of gems, I love gemstones. I really love them. Here is a picture of one of my gemstones.
This is a citrine, an orange quartz-type gemstone. I bought it on ebay, because I loved its shade of orange. It's considered a 'junk' gemstone. Not at all precious, like a diamond or a ruby.
But I love citrines.
This is an absolutely terrible photograph, but here is a large chunk of my small stones collection.
I am making a vow to myself to add one new stone to my collection every $500 I make in royalties. (One stone costs anywhere between 5-20 bucks.)
Accepting donations to my dragon hoard. Teeheheheee. For the curious, the bottom row features many citrines. The blue stone is a topaz, as are the three stones next to it. The red stone is a blood-red garnet. The bright blues are turquoise.
In the next row, I can't remember, I can't remember, my tanzanites (those are the purple stones next to the moon stones on the right hand side), then there are a bunch of moonstones my mother gave me. Then I start forgetting what everything is. I have the names of most of them written on the bottom of the containers.
Yes, the big cluster of tiny white stones on the right side, middle row are diamonds.
There are two really interesting batches of stones in this box. In the top row, you can see one little white, round stone. That is a clam pearl. Clam pearls are rare. Oysters are your pretty pearl producers. Clam pearls are unwanted, they do not have luster like oyster pearls do.
I found this one in my dinner one day. Bit on it, just about gagged, and fished it out of my clam chowder. Had to look it up online because, you know, random hard, white, and round thing in my clam chowder. My homemade clam chowder.
Clam pearl. It's a rare find. Glad I didn't break my teeth.
Second rare set of stones in that box is a matched set of alexandrites. For their size, not cheap. When you put them in different types of light, they change colors. It's really cool. I like them a lot. They are the 'bleh' colored stones on the left side above the four turquoise.
Okay, enough about one of my obsessions. Onto the productivity and failure part of this rambles. We'll ignore the fact I talked about failure once already, okay? That's the migraine. I forget things when my head hurts, even though it's something I wrote about five hundred words ago. This is why I try not to edit while migraining. Migraining is now a verb.
Failure builds character, or some crap like that. Frankly, failures suck. What does failure do? You know, beyond make you think you're completely worthless and should be run over by a transport?
It can, if you choose, provide motivation. I hate failing. I hate being a failure. When I fail, it's like someone lights a candle under my ass and holds my favorite treats out of reach. I can't jump to get my treats or my ass'll catch on fire. So no treat, and a hot butt.
Not cool. Nope, nope, nope. It's the emotional equivalent of the nopefish. If you haven't seen the nopefish… just don't. Nope, nope, nope.
To be fair, I worked from 9 AM to 5 PM with very few stops. I reached a very important goal. I was productive today. I just wasn't as productive as I wanted to be.
And tomorrow, I'll do better. Or I'm going to start beating my head into a wall. Because I do not like failure.
If I could give anyone a single piece of advice today, it would be this: Make failure your arch nemesis. Tactical nuke its ass. And when you do fail… don't get mad. Get event.
Every productive day is a victory you can embrace, claim, and enjoy.
The failures? The fuel for your fire. It won't take away the pain of defeat, but it makes the next victory all the much sweeter.
People say I'm a writing machine. If I were a machine, I wouldn't have emotions, and I wouldn't try to do better.
I try to live doing better each day… and I fail often.
I just stand back up.
You can too.

"The BP Story"
I enjoyed listening to the book. It is basic and very clear, where other medically related books can get so technical as to render them ineffective. I have high blood pressure myself and have heard most of this information in one form or another. However, hearing these reminders frequently reinforces the fact that we are our own best advocate and need to take care of our bodies. The narrator was very clear and easily understood. His pace in reading kept things moving, and had enough energy in his voice to keep me listening.

Shinsuke Nakamura Storyline Injury Update: The King of Strong Style back in action at the Performance Center
WWE NXT gives an injury update on former Champion Shinsuke Nakamura.
What's the story?
The official WWE NXT Twitter feed has posted a picture of former NXT Champion Shinsuke Nakamura back in action at the Performance Center, ahead of a return to action in the near future.
BREAKING: @ShinsukeN is striking this morning at the @WWEPerformCtr, getting closer to a return to the ring! pic.twitter.com/eR6NpBlrkX— WWE NXT (@WWENXT) February 20, 2017
In case you didn't know...
Shinsuke Nakamura defended his NXT Championship against Bobby Roode at NXT TakeOver: San Antonio. During the match, Roode attacked Nakamura's knee, something which contributed to Nakamura losing the match and his title in the process.
Since that match in late January, Nakamura has been absent from NXT. He has been selling the effects of that knee injury, but at the same time has been wrestling on NXT Live Events.
The heart of the matter
NXT treats kayfabe in-ring injuries very differently to how the main roster does. Nakamura has been away from actual in-ring action on TV since that match at TakeOver, making the injury seem more legitimate.
As the heel champion, Bobby Roode looks even stronger for the fact that Nakamura hasn't been around to gain any revenge for that title loss, but it also builds up any potential re-match that takes place down the line.
What's next?
If Nakamura is ready to return to action, in the storyline, then you can bet he will have a match or two at the NXT TV tapings that take place later this week. Nakamura needs to be allowed to be built up to look strong again before going after Roode and the Championship he so cruelly lost.
Sportskeeda's take
The way that NXT handles these kinds of issues is a breath of fresh air.
If this kind of thing had happened to someone on a Raw pay-per-view then they would probably have been on tv the following night and it would all have been forgotten instantly. With NXT posting pictures of Nakamura back in training, it makes him look more like a legitimate athlete and builds him up for a massive response when he makes his return.

How to Use Google Webmaster Tools for SEO (Intro)
How to Use Google Webmaster Tools for SEO (Intro)
How to use Google Webmaster Tools for search engine optimization looks at
some core features of Google Webmaster Tools and how it can be utilized to
set certain option this tool allows webmasters to set. If you are not as of
yet using this highly useful tool from Google, then perhaps it is time to
create an account and see how Google sees your website.
I thank you for learning with me and sharing this video and wishing you top
Google rankings
Hi tolga. Thanks for this useful video tutorial about how to use google
webmaster tools. For my websites i use three different statistic programs:
google webmaster, google analytics and one from my host company, i think
its webalizer. But all of them show total different statistic! Why? And
what do you use? Maybe you can make a video about this subject. Thanks. Sam
Hello Sam, your question is very valid indeed, because you are right when
you say each of these analysis tools can be utilized for seeing different
things, and yet, each of them must be fully utilized. To give you a quick
answer I will say that your server logs would be good to see things
"keywords used to find your website" since Google doesn't want to really
make all the keyword data available for us so therefore, both in Webmaster
Tools and Google Analytics it shows keywords "not set" so the next thing to
look to find that out is your server logs "Webalizer" is good enough.
Anyhow, each has uses and the best advice I can share is use all them,
because that is what I do. I am working on some videos at the moment and as
soon as I finish them I will try my best to make a video related to this.
Thanks you for the likes mate. Talk soon, till then happy rankings
