Discussion in 'Modifications & Tuning' started by sivakumar_nm, Jul 7, 2015.
@KKAUL your views on 195/70r14... Am looking at 195 width...
will always be a good option as long as it does not void the warranty. You want to make the excellence of both 15" and 14"
@KKAUL If we upgrade the tyres will that void warranty? I didn't know this....
Also i had option of upgrading to 195/60r15 with steel rims
now am thinking of 195/70r14 with stock rims
Which one is better
Stick to the OEM specs for 14" or 15". If you try to use your own spec then it will definately void your warranty. It can be clearly understood suppose their spec is 195 65 r 15 or 185 70 r 14. If you try to calculate the volume of air and weight of the tyre will be more or less same where as in 195 70 r15 it will be more than both the specs hence failure of wheel bearing ,axle or worst steering rack will be high.
as far as 15" is concerned better to use alloy for lower weight reasons same as above.
expecting reply from someone who's using 195/65r15
I am already using 195 65 R 15 and those were the spec supplied by the company
the current version punto stock spec is 195/60r15 not 195/65r15
Fiat provides 195/60 R15 for Emotion varient. It's not perfect as in 60 profile is not that secure when it comes to protecting the rims from potholes and speed bumps, however the ride quality is not compromised, I have driven a car with 195/65 size tires, not a difference, just that my friend is a frequent traveler to Mangalore so he wanted something which can secure his rims.
Perfect.. Thanks Anup
--- Double Post Merged, Jul 28, 2015 ---
fixed with 195/65/r15. now which tyre brand Yokohama Earth 1 or Hankook Optimo Me02 or Michelin XM2 ??
--- Double Post Merged, Jul 28, 2015 ---
@Anup your friend punto is 75hp or 90hp?
Separate names with a comma.

Many reasons exist for cycling around the road and you will find several various kinds of road bikes. The 4 primary kinds of bikes for road bike cycling are road bikes, mountain bikes, hybrid bikes and folding bikes. Many of these kinds of bikes also provide many variations and various designs so selecting the best bike for your requirements could be a big decision. For more information on the Best Beginner Road Bike, visit our website today!
Which kind of bike you decide to ride around the road depends upon how frequently you'll use it, the reason and distance from the journeys you are making, in addition to which kind of bike you are feeling preferred riding, as every one has different riding positions.
Generally road bikes have drop handlebars and thin tires, and they're relatively lightweight. They're mostly created for speed so the riding position is low lower instead of upright, because this is probably the most aerodynamic position. This kind of bike is unquestionably the fastest option for road bike cycling and it is the bike preferred by racing and many experienced road bike cycling fans.
Road bikes can basically be split into two sub-groups - touring bikes and racing bikes. Touring bikes are fantastic for lengthy distance rides and cycling holidays, while race bikes are equipped for acceleration and speed.
Touring bikes have lower gear ratios so that they work for transporting gear along with you on the lengthy ride or tour. Race bikes are very light and also have very rigid frames to maximise the change in power in the rider towards the wheels, to be able to provide a smooth ride.
The ideal choice of road bike for commuters, maintaining fitness and cycling for leisure are hybrid bikes. They are basically a combination of a mountain bike along with a road bike, and they're growing in recognition constantly. They've fast spinning wheels just like a road bike, however the riding position is much more upright and much like a mountain bike position, simply because they have flat handlebars.
Hybrid bikes are simple to maneuver, with a variety of gears making it easy to handle alterations in speed or gradient. They've wide tires much like a mountain bike to allow them to used off-road. They're certainly a handy option for general road bike cycling and leisure rides.
Mountain bikes have tires with substantial tread because they are created for off-road riding, but they may also be altered to road cycling if you have one and wish to cycle around the road without another huge cost. To evolve a mountain bike you can easily swap the tires for narrower, smoother tires. This can decrease resistance making cycling around the road simpler and faster.
Should you cycle around the road in your journey to operate a handy kind of bike to make use of is really a folding bike. They are ideal if you are using trains and buses in your journey, or maybe storage is a problem at the office or in your own home. Rather of getting to bother with where you can leave your bike securely you can easily fold up and bear it along with you.
Whichever style you select, when road bike cycling always consider making yourself apparent with other road users by putting on reflective products and taking advantage of lights. This really is imperative for the safety around the road, whatever the kind of bike you select. Visit us at https://www.probikeninja.com/best-mountain-bike-helmets/ to know more about mountain bike and to get the best and latest deals.

Do you remember 2010? Android 2.1 was all the rage and the HTC Desire was the phone to own. Joonas Lehtolahti remembers it too. He had a problem with the Wi-Fi network at his university. Because it was an open, un-encrypted network students could connect without needing a password, but to get out onto the Internet you needed to login via a special server. Without getting technical the redirect to this login server used just the hostname "joynet" rather than its full domain name "joynet.joensuu.fi". OK, so what? Well the problem is that with Android that meant that the name couldn't be resolved. The result was that students at the university couldn't access the Internet from an Android device.
Joonas faithfully filed a bug report with Google and the clock started ticking. Other people started noticing the same bug, a few corporate users noticed that it was also an issue for them. Android 2.2 was released, no fix. Android 2.3 come out, no fix. By 2011 tablet mania had struck and Honeycomb was released along with the Motorola Xoom… Still no fix. One user reported that he was trying to use his Xoom at work to show that it was better than an iPad because it had Flash support. But because of this bug the Xoom and Android was "not looking so good!"
2011 came and went. By 2012 users were starting to get rightly annoyed. "Come'on guys!! This is like more than a year old bug!! And not just a bug, but a major bug! My colleague has a Blackberry and he doesn't have this problem," wrote Theo van der Sluijs. "Please Google make this work. If not… a lot of companies will never use Android."
By April 2012 things reached boiling point. Some users suggested it was best to root phones to get around this, one user pointed out how "19,000 employees" in his company couldn't use the company's Intranet from any Android device.
Finally, as it looked like the bug would live on into 2013, a Google employee updated the bug to say it had been fixed thanks to one Keven Tang. The news is that it will be in the "next major release" but the Googler couldn't or wouldn't comment on which version that would be. All he would say is "it will be after 4.2, which has already gone out."
The moral of the story, well there isn't one except maybe what Troy Gerrie wrote, "Too little too late, bought a Surface and i'm loving it. Next up, Lumia 920."

The tragic death of Rose Tombe
Warning: This post was published more than 10 years ago.
I keep old posts on the site because sometimes it's interesting to read old content. Not everything that is old is bad. Also, I think people might be interested to track how my views have changed over time: for example, how my strident teenage views have mellowed and matured!
But given the age of this post, please bear in mind:
- My views might have changed in the 10 years since I wrote this post.
- This post might use language in ways which I would now consider inappropriate or offensive.
- Factual information might be outdated.
- Links might be broken; embedded material might not appear properly.
Many thanks for your understanding.
Today, I've received news of the sad passing of Rose Tombe of Juba, Sudan.
After a quiet start to life, Rose shot to fame early in 2006 when she married Charles Tombe, who loved her so much that he was willing to pay a dowry of 15,000 Sudanese dollars to secure her hand in marriage. The news of the wedding was marred by the revelation that the happy couple had been caught by Mr Alifi, Rose's carer, having sex before their marriage, which had resulted in Mr Alifi becoming unnecessarily aggressive and tying poor Charles up for the night.
You see, Mr Tombe and Rose were truly star-crossed lovers. For some, they were just to 'different' to have a true, loving relationship. Some even suggested that Charles was just playing along for the sex. But luckily, Mr Alifi soon came to his senses, and allowed the marriage to go ahead.
The couple had a bright future together, but things hit the rocks a little towards the end of last year, when Rose became pregnant. Whilst the paternity has not been formally determined, it is noticeable that the offspring bears little resemblance to Mr Tombe, but has a distinct likeness to some of Mrs Tombe's former boyfriends.
After much soul-searching, the couple were able to work through their problems, and share in an open relationship considered radical in their Sudanese home. However, Rose tragically died earlier this week, after choking on a plastic bag.
Tributes have been pouring in from across the world, and Rose's closest friends and family turned out to pay their last respects at the funeral. But perhaps the most moving tribute came from the late Mrs Rose's son:
Naa naaaaa. Naaaaaaaaaaaa naaaa naa na. Naaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa.
A fitting tribute to a truly special goat.

BRITISH AIRWAYS has pulled off a coup by poaching leading aviation barrister Robert Webb QC from premier aviation law chambers 5 Bell Yard.
The high-profile Webb appeared on the opposite side to BA in the bid by Easyjet to scupper the launch of Go, BA's low-cost airline, and in Virgin's dirty tricks action.
Webb has been head of chambers at 5 Bell Yard for the last 10 years and is the second of the chambers' three silks to have left this year, after the departure of fellow aviation specialist Michael Crane QC to commercial set Fountain Court.
As head of BA's legal and regulatory activities, Webb replaces Ken Walder, who moves to the British Aviation Insurance Group as director of operations and chief legal adviser.
Webb said: "I have seen so many wonderful sch-emes pass across my desk over the years that I thought it would be nice to be part of the action.
"The competitive atmosphere is so mistrustful in the aviation industry, the one thing I want to do is get back to having straight bats all round."
Webb said leaving the Bar "feels very strange" but he believed he would not have been well suited to life as a judge.
Harbottle & Lewis head of aviation Dermot Scully, who instructed Webb in the Virgin action, said Webb had let the firm know of his decision, adding that all there wished him well.
Kevin Moore, senior clerk at 5 Bell Yard, said: "Robert Webb has been a charismatic and greatly respected head of chambers and we wish him all the best in his new venture."
Moore added that 5 Bell yard would continue to offer its specialisation in aviation law.

Lumber Prices Spike in Aftermath of Japanese Tsunami
The Chicago Mercantile Exchange reported pricing on May lumber futures rose 0.7 percent to $311.10 per 1,000 board feet. The reason? Japan is a leading market for hardwood lumber exports, and reconstruction of the many damaged structures will increase global demand significantly and likely impact U.S. domestic pricing as well. According to official figures, 80,422 houses in the impacted areas houses have been damaged, and 4,798 houses were destroyed.

We are a family of recreational enthusiasts. Both my wife and I grew up skiing and hence we are a skiing family. In the summer we enjoy all sorts of outdoor activities. Whether out on our ski boat, hiking, camping, or traveling the country in our motor home, we are always on the lookout for fun.
Brad Schock purchased this condo in 2011
My wife and I both lived and worked in Sun Valley for a few years after college. We taught skiing, worked at the Pioneer Saloon (cook and waitress), and did odd jobs as well. Anything to make ends meet. Originally we went to Sun Valley for a winter, but talk to anyone who lives there and they will tell you that winters are great, but stay for a summer and it is hard to leave. And so it went. When we eventually left it was our goal to some day own a place in our favorite spot in the world. It took over 25 years, but we did it and this unit has absolutely everything we were looking for in the recreational paradise that we cherish.
Your options from this location are so open there is no stress about anything. Relax and have fun
Bottom line: this is a great place to stay in the Sun Valley area with your family. Great accommodations. Nice pool. Nice, quiet location. Very near awesome running, biking. I recommend it.
We really enjoyed our stay. I really liked the location both in Warm Springs and the specific location within the Prospector complex. It's right next to the river and near the pool. The cool air and the sound of the burbling river was really nice at night. The kids loved the pool. The hours are kind of lame: 10am to 8pm, but we dealt with it.
The condo is quite nice. It is certainly well stocked. We cooked a number of meals there and there were plenty of dishes, pans, and other useful things. The bathrooms are relatively small and there isn't a tub, which would have been nice for kid baths. But these are small things. It's a nice place and we would certainly stay there again.
Our only real problem was that we had a trailer on our vehicle. Trailers aren't allowed in Prospector. Jim, the property manager, let us know immediately. The parking lot was quite empty, but hey, rules is rules. Jim was super fair about it and actually found a place for us to park our trailer. So it worked out fine. And to be fair to all involved, we didn't think to ask about this before we came.
Cute place- cuter than the photos. The owners are really accommodating and helpful. Deposit was refunded promptly. Parking is great. Plenty of seating. Unfortunately the park across the bridge is closed in the winter- but the condo offers great access to the lifts in winter! So really summer or winter you have great access for fun things to do with the family. We cooked a thanksgiving dinner in the kitchen- it has everything. Better to arrive early enough to get the heat turned on- it takes a bit to understand it and get the place warmed up. We would definitely consider staying here again! Really great value!
We have stayed at several of the condos in Prospector, and this truly is the best location. Access to the pool and courts is outside your door and you can hear the creek from your window at night. The kitchen had everything we needed plus the best spice drawer I've ever seen in a rental. It was clean and everything worked. We will stay again.
Brad is always incredibly helpful, the condo is always clean, loaded with anything you may need for your stay in kitchen.
The master bedroom has an amazing view, I look forward to each stay just for being able to wake up to this view every morning.
We will definitely continue to stay here when we come to Ketchum.
Overall very nice. Most likely to stay again if in the area.
We've never rented through this site before, so we weren't exactly sure what we were getting into. We were very pleasantly surprised! They were located very close to the ski resort in a cute area with a river running right through it. (Although this is something to make note of if you have little kids, especially this time of year, as it was very fast moving) There was a fun park area and pool. The pool was closed, but we did try out the hot tub. The condo its self was very clean and super nice. The washer and dryer came in very handy. In fact, I can't think of anything we might have needed it didn't have. The only thing I would say, is it would probably be good for them to note that they have a dog. Our 8 year old had an asthmatic reaction as soon as she laid in one of the beds, which has only been caused by animals in the past. She's fine and we just took the blankets off. Otherwise we had a great stay and would come back.

DULUTH, Ga – Police are looking for a man accused of passing a note to rob a bank in Duluth.
The incident happened Thursday morning when a man wearing a gray shirt, black beanie, and a neck tie went inside the Bank of America 2724 Meadow Church Rd.
According to police, the suspect walked up to the counter and passed a note to a teller that said he wanted the money from the drawers in various denominations. The note instructed the teller not to put a dye pack in the money, and said that he was armed.
The suspect then then moved his hand to his hip as if he was armed with a concealed weapon under his shirt.
As the teller reached for the panic alarm, the suspect quickly grabbed the note and walked out of the bank with no money.
An eyewitness saw a yellow passenger car parked outside the bank during the time frame of the incident. This was possibly the getaway vehicle, according to police.
If anyone has any information to share in this case, please contact GCPD detectives at 770-513-5300.

Kinahan gang pay €3k for 'Hutch spotting' teen spies
The Kinahan cartel have been offering up to €3,000 a go for young criminals in the north inner city to act as "spotters" in their own communities to trace the movements of rival Hutch family members.
Sources say that the help of the young spotters, including teenagers, has been "invaluable" in the cartel's murderous campaign, in which four of the 10 feud cartel victims have been shot dead in a small area of the capital's northside.
"Information has come into gardai that individuals who know the Hutch family were prepared to betray them, with a figure of €3,000 being offered for credible information about their movements," a source said.
"There can be little doubt that the cartel's network of local spies has really helped them and this applies to murders as well as attempted murders and even foiled hits," the source added.
The development comes after the Herald revealed gardai are investigating whether the cartel has been using tracking devices to monitor the movements of innocent members of the Hutch family.

A number of cars belonging to Hutch family members have been examined by gardai.
In the latest incident, an innocent 65-year-old woman, who is connected to feud murder victim Gareth Hutch, is suspected of having a tracker device placed under her car. CCTV images from the woman's north inner city home showed a young man underneath her car with a flashlight.
Gardai from the Bridewell station were nearby but it is not known if they witnessed the incident.
However, when officers were made aware of what happened they then forensically examined the vehicle before returning it to the woman five days later.
Among the murders that spotters are suspected of helping the cartel take part in include that of Eddie Hutch Sr (59), who was shot dead at his home in Poplar Row on the night of February 8.
Eddie, a brother of Gerry 'The Monk' Hutch, was targeted by a four-man hit team just days after the Regency Hotel attack.
Another murder in which spotters were suspected of playing an active role was that of Martin O'Rourke (24), who was shot dead in broad daylight on the afternoon of April 14.
O'Rourke was a victim of mistaken identity, with the target of the brutal slaying being Hutch gang member Keith Murtagh (32), who escaped uninjured.
Gardai continue to mount a number of operations on both sides of the capital to prevent further bloodshed, which has led to a number of major firearms seizures recently.
Earlier this month, gardai foiled a gangland bloodbath after seizing a "significant" arsenal of weapons from the Kinahan cartel.
Officers from the Drugs and Organised Crime Bureau (DOCB) found the weapons in a vehicle in the Cabra area of Dublin.
The arsenal included two MP-9 machine guns, two silencers and three loaded Smith & Wesson handguns.
One line in the investigation is that the weapons were to be used in a north inner city "pub massacre" against members of the Hutch mob, including a close business partner of on-the-run target Gerry 'The Monk' Hutch.
The ongoing feud has claimed a number of innocent lives, including dad-of-three Trevor O'Neill, who was shot dead in a case of mistaken identity while holidaying in Spain.
The city council worker was killed by a hitman who was believed to be targeting Jonathan Hutch, Gareth's brother, who was staying in the same area.
Hutch told police that he was the target of the shooting and returned to Dublin soon after the incident.
His family home has been targeted by gunmen since his return.

First Egg!!
And a second egg tonight...we're on a roll!
Yay eggs! I LOVE chickens and you have some very lovely girls there!
How are the dogs doing with them?
Kim and Web are both okay with them now at least in the pen. Webster avoids them. I could see Kim giving chase in a bigger area if they really got running, but so far she hasn't and has studiously ignored them when fluttering under her nose.
As for Mira...well she has both a genetic and experiential overwhelming desire to put feathered things in her mouth. She's okay if she's in an active stay and told to leave it but it's a toes-dug-in eyes intent every muscle tensed sort of thing. Works in an emergency (like when a suicidal hen flew the coop -- literally) to stop her and hold her while I put the hen back where she belongs, and she won't try to enter their enclosure as she knows it's off limits, but let's just say they'll never be frolicking in the lawn together...
More chicken pics?
Growing season is winding down but they still find green to graze.
Ready to pounce
New kid on the block...
I've been on the lookout for a nice roo since late summer. Everything came together yesterday and I was able to bring home this handsome fella. He's about the same age as my hens, a blue wheaten Maran.
Currently in quarantine and not really thrilled about it, but he's still a handsome bird.

POLOKWANE – The two key service delivery departments, Health and Education, which are the cornerstones of the national development plan and the Limpopo Development Plan and account for approximately 76% of the provincial budget, received a qualified opinion and disclaimer of opinion in the recent Auditor-General Report, respectively.
The regression to a qualified opinion at the Department of Health can be ascribed to instability in the positions of accounting officer and chief financial officer following the withdrawal of the intervention team in terms of Section 100(1)(b) of the Constitution in January 2015. The AG report showed that the department showed an improvement of R259,1 million when it came to irregular expenditure and a R15,9 million improvement on fruitless wasteful expenditure(money spent on negligence, overdue accounts and penalties paid for some reason).
One of the main issues for the department's performance pointed out by the AG was the fact that the department the position of the accounting officer was vacant for six months and the position of the chief financial officer was vacant for a year.
This hampered the drive towards creating a sustainable control environment with effective monitoring controls.
This was evident at the Department of Health, as the audit team identified a significant number of errors that were indicative of a breakdown in internal controls that the department could not correct.
The department showed a disclaimer (a statement that is meant to prevent an incorrect understanding of something) with findings when it came to predetermined objectives and compliance with legislation this was a repeat from the previous financial year.
The auditor-general finding stressed new concerns in the financial statement qualification areas of the department when it came to non-current assets other disclosure items as well as expenditure.
On the findings of predetermined objectives the department received a repeat disclaimer with findings on the report of information that is not reliable.
Findings on non-compliance by the Auditor-General show that the department received disclaimers with findings on material mismanagement or limitation in the submitted annual financial statements (AFS) and unauthorised irregular as well as fruitless and wasteful expenditure. Expenditure management and revenue management together with procurement management also received disclaimers with findings.
When it comes to findings in specific risk areas the Auditor-General found that the department received disclaimers with findings repeated on quality or submitted performance reports and supply chain management. Human resource management and information technology also showed a disclaimer with findings but was not repeated from the previous financial year.
Areas where the department improved included in the findings on non-compliance when it came to asset management, budgets, consequence management, strategic planning and performance management and HR management.
The Department of Education continued to disappoint with its performance and retained a disclaimer of opinion for a fifth consecutive financial year. This means that the AG was unable to complete an accurate audit report on the department for different reasons. When this happens, the auditor issues a disclaimer of opinion, stating that an opinion of the firm's financial status could not be determined. The department was also placed under administration by the provincial treasury recently.
In the recent Auditor General's report the Department of Education received a disclaimer with findings in the following areas:
– the predetermined objectives
– compliance with legislation
On financial statement qualification areas the department received more repeat disclaimer with findings from the previous financial year on non-current assets, current assets, liabilities, other disclosure items, expenditure and unauthorised, irregular as well as fruitless and wasteful expenditure (money spent on negligence, overdue accounts and penalties paid).
The AG findings on predetermined objectives showed that the department received a disclaimer with findings on reported information not being reliable.
Findings on non-compliance showed the department in a repeat disclaimer with findings on material mismanagement or limitations in submitted (AFS) Annual Financial Statements, unauthorised irregular as well as fruitless and wasteful expenditure, expenditure management, consequence management, strategic planning and performance management, transfer and conditional grants and procurement management.
The Education Department only showed an improvement on report information not being useful, asset management, revenue management and HR management as well as a R 336,3 million irregular expenditure from the previous financial year and lastly an improvement in fruitless and wasteful expenditure of R17,3million.
Audit report terms explained
Here are some of the terms easily explained:
• Fruitless and wasteful expenditure: Money that has been wasted on something like negligence, overdue accounts and penalties being paid.
• Unauthorised expenditure: Spending more money than was allocated for one thing and money used for other purposes than the money was planned for.
• Irregular expenditure: Money being spent over budget on unplanned items or paying more for something than it normally costs.
• Unqualified opinion: Often called a clean opinion, an unqualified opinion is an audit report that is issued when an auditor determines that each of the financial records provided by the small business is free of any misrepresentations.
In addition, an unqualified opinion indicates that the financial records have been maintained in accordance with certain standards.
This is the best type of report a business can receive.
Typically, an unqualified report consists of a title that includes the word "independent".
This is done to illustrate that it was prepared by an unbiased third party.
The title is followed by the main body. Made up of three paragraphs, the main body highlights the responsibilities of the auditor, the purpose of the audit and the auditor's findings.
The auditor signs and dates the document, including his address.
• Qualified opinion: In situations when a company's financial records have not been maintained in accordance with the necessary standards, but no misrepresentations are identified, an auditor will issue a qualified opinion.
The writing of a qualified opinion is extremely similar to that of an unqualified opinion.
A qualified opinion, however, will include an additional paragraph that highlights the reason why the audit report is not unqualified.
• Adverse opinion: The worst type of financial report that can be issued to a business is an adverse opinion. This indicates that the firm's financial records do not conform to required standards.
In addition, the financial records provided by the business have been grossly misrepresented. Although this may occur by error, it is often an indication of fraud.
When this type of report is issued, a company must correct its financial statement and have it re-audited, as investors, lenders and other requesting parties will generally not accept it.
• Disclaimer of opinion: On some occasions, an auditor is unable to complete an accurate audit report. This may occur for a variety of reasons, such as an absence of appropriate financial records.
When this happens, the auditor issues a disclaimer of opinion, stating that an opinion of the firm's financial status could not be determined.

Any way to make the TB light blink faster and with all notifications?
I have XtrRom 4.6 and the trackball only lights up when I missed a phone call. I don't know why it wont work for all the other things.
First, the "slow pulse" trackball notification is tied to HTC Sense. That's why you see it in Sense ROMs and not on others. I have no idea if it's possible to speed it up or anything, but I'd imagine it would be difficult to figure out, considering how difficult it seems to be modifying many things within the Sense framework.
Second, my trackball lights up on any notifications I want it to with xtrSENSE4.6, so I can't reproduce your issue. I have it light up for missed calls and SMS/MMS. I can also have it work with e-mail and Facebook, although I keep those notifications Silent without any help from my trackball.

Spring is traditionally the time where we look at the mess we accumulated over the winter and feel a deep urge to get it clean, uncluttered and organized. Make sure you include items that come in contact with your skin on your Spring Cleaning List.
Remembering to deal with these items will help you to avoid spreading bacteria that can aggravate acne, rosacea and other skin conditions.
Here are the items to put on your Skin Care Spring Cleaning List;
Pillow cases - for skin care clients with acne, change them every few days; for all others, weekly should be fine. Avoid harsh detergents, look for soft fabrics if buying new. Microfiber is very soft, and resists bacteria.
Cell phones - I can't tell you how many times I see one sided acne that when all is said and done comes down to a cell phone touching the cheek. Text-ers need to consider that the same fingers you use to text on your grimy phone end up touching your skin - and other things. A swipe with an alcohol pad every day will do the trick.
Hats - Ever notice breakouts that seem to span your forehead in the exact place your brim is? Hats collect sweat especially at the brim. Wash or replace.
Sunglasses and glasses - wipe with alcohol pad - concentrate at the bridge of the nose and wherever the frame touches your skin (usually top of cheeks). Also remember to cleanse the case if you use one.
Makeup more than a year old - no cleaning here, throw it out. Its not worth the risk. This is especially important with mascara. You touch a brush to your lashes and then put it back in a tube, over and over again. Think about it.
Makeup brushes - I prefer a natural brush cleaner weekly to keep the bristles soft for my personal brushes. For those brushes I use professionally, its an after-each-use scrub of hot water, natural antibacterial cleanser, and mushing the brush head into the soap vigorously for 60 seconds. Rinse, repeat, squeeze out excess water and lay them on a clean white towel to air dry thoroughly. Do not put into a closed container while still damp, or you've defeated the purpose of sanitizing the brush.
Clarisonic brushes - Ditto for the hot water/antibacterial scrub routine listed above. Do this after each use if you have active skin issues (you shouldn't be using this brush on active lesions anyway, but I know you do it).
OK, get to work, and enjoy the sweet-smelling, confidence-inspiring fruits of your labor. If you have any questions, post them on my FaceBook Page so everyone can benefit.

(CBR) Frank Grillo plays one of Captain America"s most recognizable antagonists, Crossbones, in the upcoming Marvel sequel "Captain America: The Winter Soldier". But it"s possible that the new Russo brothers movie won"t be his only appearance in the Marvel Cinematic Universe.
"They do actually," Grillo said when Crave Online asked whether the studio has plans for brutal mercenary Brock Rumlow beyond "The Winter Soldier". "We"ll see what happens. We"ll see if the fans respond to Brock and how it goes."
One place you won"t see Crossbones appear is "Marvel"s Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D.", as Grillo said he"s not interested in appearing on the ABC series.
"I"ve got my own thing to do on television so you can"t really do two at once," he said, referring to his newly announced series "Navy St.", described as Friday Night Lights for mixed martial arts. "Not that I don"t want to do it, but it doesn"t get me going anymore to do something like that."
"Captain America: The Winter Soldier" arrives on April 4, 2014.

A basketball player goes to the doctor office,"Doc, I have a problem that is a little embarrasing." The doctor asks what it is. The basketball player says, "Whenever I go up for a jump shot, and totally straighten my body, I let out a huge ripping fart. It doesn't smell but the sound kinda throws my teammates off." So the doctor asks him to demonstrate. So he pertends he is going up for a jump shot and lets out a huge one. The doctor says, "I can give you pills for the gas but we have to schedule an operation for your nose." The basketball player asks why. The doc replies, "Because that fart sure as hell stank!"

A prophetic message, or discursive dream? You decide.
Published by Marranda in the blog Marranda's blog. Views: 96
I hade a bizarre dream last night (Saturday night).
I was driving a car down a dark street, approaching a three-way intersection. I flipped the left turn-signal and came to a stop, checking both ways before completing the left turn. The next thing I know I'm in an enormous gymnasium standing at the edge of a pool, posed to dive. The walls were blinding white. There was a crowd of people behind me, and a 16 year old looking girl next to me, posed to dive too. I told her she didn't stand a chance at beating me to the other side. She sneered and told me to prepare to drown in her wake.
A silent shot went off and we both dived in, swimming with everything we had. I reached the other side first, jumped out and rang the bell first. The room hushed, a voice came from somewhere overhead. The girl was escorted from the room by two big men in all white, and I was pointed to a table where an older woman sat. She looked 50-ish, with short graying brown hair and a round face, aged by happiness, not by grief like so many older people. She had a notebook, a tablet, a cup of pens and a bell in front of her. She didn't say anything to me, just sat looking straight ahead. I turned to watch the next couple of people take the plunge and compete to the other side.
Two women jumped in, but it was what looked to be a streak of sunshine swimming beside a streak of night under the turning water. I cheered for the streak of gold, somehow knowing it was important for her to win. I needed her to win. Both jumped from the pool at the same time, a penguin and a shining orb of pure sunlight. I heard the old woman behind me mutter a familiar name. I whirled to face her.
"Say that again." I demanded.
"Both move on, both go to the other side."
"But why? They finished at the same time, it was a tie!" Somehow I knew the 'other side' meant 'gone forever'. I didn't want the sunshine to go. I thought I might know her. I wasn't sure though. The old woman nodded as if I'd spoken aloud.
"Theresa. The sunshine was Theresa." I felt as if someone had punched me in the gut. The air whooshed from my lungs, leaving me feeling deflated. A tight, hot pressure built in my chest. I thought my heart was breaking apart, sinking from it's spot behind my ribs to my gut. I couldn't relax my face from it's expression of extreme grief. It hurt so bad.
"No, please. She's... Theresa's never hurt anyone. Why her?!"
I was shouting. The old woman simply shrugged.
"It was her time to fight for her life, and she didn't fight hard enough."
I looked at my feet, bare and pedicured. When had I gotten a pedicure?
"Right before your car accident." the old woman answered though I hadn't spoken aloud. Just then Theresa walked up to me, everything about her golden and happy, like a bright aphrodisiac, an aura of bliss and happiness. I shook her by the shoulders.
"You can/t be happy about this! You just got married! You're too young! Too beautiful to die..." I couldn't talk, air refused to fill my lungs and I was experiencing that wrenching pain in my chest again. Tears blurred my vision. She looked at me, a bright smile radiating joy.
"If it's my time, it's my time Marranda. I'm not going to question higher judgement." Tears shined in her eyes and spilled, leaving trails of gold down her cheeks. It was so hard to breath. I've never felt such grief, such concentrated agony before. The tears hadn't stopped pouring from my eyes.
"You can't go. You're Julie's rock. What'll she do without you there?"
Suddenly all my thoughts turned to Julie. Was she in the car with Theresa when she'd wrecked? Did Theresa even wreck her car? How did she end up here in the first place? WHERE was 'here'?? I looked around again. The swimming pool was long and narrow, only ten feet wide. The masses of people waiting for their turn to swim for their lives, to return to their realities; was devastating. All those people... I saw flashes of images. Impressions of being surrounded by people, and food, of concrete and street lamps disoriented me.
"Give this to Julie. Tell her I love her, and not to worry. I'll be her little girls' guardian." She winked. "My Tony's strong. I'm not worried. For once I'm not scared of the unknown." She handed me two sheets of paper, one had a short note on it, only ten lines long. The other was covered in lists of addresses, passwords and email addresses; phone numbers and little side notes. I was still crying, and when I looked up at Theresa I felt another wave of tears roll down my face.
"That's for you."
Theresa shrugged. I looked to the old woman who also shrugged, and looked up.
Theresa and I looked up at the same time. The ceiling clouded and opened to show a scene from what looked like a security camera. Our friends Julie and Jessie were in front of a computer, one reading over the others' shoulder. Both began to cry, then Julie, ever the realist, dried her eyes and sniffled.
"We'll find the bastard that did this Jess, and we'll kill him. How dare anyone steal our sunshine girl from us." Her tears hadn't stopped but her expression was clear and determined. Jessie remained silent. I looked at Theresa, then the paper in my hands, the old woman, then back to Theresa.
"You know how you died? You were... You were murdered." Theresa shook her head at me, refusing to answer.
"Just follow your instincts. They've always been good. Always right." A cloud appeared behind her, and Theresa began to fade into it until she was gone altogether.
I stood, silently raging until it occurred to me that though I'd swam and finished my race first, and others had swam and moved on, but I still remained. Why me? I looked at the old woman.
"Because you were chosen."
I laughed at her.
"So what, now you're Obi Wan or something? Am I going to have super powers and be invincible now? Am I going to go back to my body, my life, and become one of those crazy "I saw angles and heaven" people?" The woman creeped me out. Without the amber glow that Theresa threw off, the old woman went from someone I'd imagine to be a favorite grandma, to sinister and shady. I re-read Theresa's note to Julie and mourned all over again, and so thoroughly it caused me to wake up from the dream.
I was gasping for air, the crushing sensation of grief from the dream transferred into my waking reality. It hurt so bad! I was still in the position I'd fallen asleep in. I rolled to my side and found a big tear-soaked spot on my pillow. I wiped my face, my fingers came away wet and cold. Apparently I'd been crying in my sleep for a long time. As soon as I'd discovered that, I was being sucked back into another dream. It was as if my brief time awake correlated to the passage of time in my dream.
I was driving again, but this time Julie was in the passenger seat beside me. I looked at her, feeling an odd sense of urgency, like I couldn't drive fast enough, get us to where we needed to be quick enough. She didn't look at me. I began to cry again.
"I'm so sorry about Theresa, Julie! I cheered her on! I didn't know it was going to be something that decided her fate." Julie turned to me.
"I don't know why you keep saying you saw her move on, Marranda. She was murdered, a whole day AFTER you got in your car wreck. She wasn't swimming, and neither were you. Stop with the delusions."
Grief had made Julie bitter, and I understood. I reached into my back pocket and took out the note Theresa had given me to give to Julie. I handed it to her. She read it in silence.
"Where did you get this?"
"She gave it to me, after I watched her swim the mile."
"Was it really a mile?" Julie asked.
"I don't know. It felt like a mile when I swam it."
We were both quiet for a minute.
"Why you? Why her?"
"I don't know, Julie."
She sighed after a minute.
"I miss my sunshine girl."

A while back, I reviewed a wonderful cookbook written by my friend Sarah, " The Magical Slow Cooker". I have made many recipes from her cookbook that are just so easy and delicious. This was a favorite, Slow Cooker Sour Cream Beef Stroganoff and one of my most viewed recipes!
Chicken is a main staple in our household, hubs would be happy to eat it every day of the week. This slow cooker lemon chicken is so moist and lemony, I should have doubled up the recipe, because everyone was going back for seconds. Broiling the chicken after it has cooked low and slow gives it such a beautiful golden brown color. I even ate the lemon, it was amazingly delicious.

Overall, definitely happy with the shirt-- it is so beautiful! the weight of the oxford cloth is perfect and I can't get over the buttons -- I think the combo of it all is what sold me on buying the shirt in the first place. I really like buttoning my shirts all the way to the top and am glad this shirt indulges me in that.
Why I chose Tradlands? I want to support companies that care about style, quality and accountability in the manufacturing chain, and seem to have a knack for amazing personable, customer service. Most of the shoes and clothes I've bought in the past few years have all been via consignment or ebay, so when it comes to buying a new item, I want to make sure that investment is not just in a high quality, long-lasting item, but it's an investment to a company whose mission and processes I value, too. So, there ya have it. Thanks for being rad!

Watching a special on Dick Clark, it was said that he "joined" Bandstand in the mid 50's, so who created it? I always thought that he was the creator.
sort by best latest
From my reading Bob Horn based it off a radio show in 52. Lee Stewart hosted with him and owned the station. Horn was fired in 56 and Dick Clark took over soon after and he was host and producer.

Del Norte County Sheriff's deputies arrested a 28-year-old Crescent City man Thursday in connection with an April 12 home invasion robbery in Brookings in which the resident was attacked with a Taser.
Jack Pelletier has been identified as part of a group allegedly involved in the home invasion robbery, according to Del Norte County Sheriff Dean Wilson.
According to the Curry Coastal Pilot, two masked men entered Gerald Haussler's home at about 1:15 a.m. on April 12, attacked him with the Taser, assaulted him and took his money, his cellphone and other items.
On Thursday, deputies arrested Pelletier at his home on the 2000 block of Northcrest Drive in Crescent City at about 8:50 a.m., Wilson said. During a search of the suspect's home, they found evidence of a hashish lab, several firearms including a loaded sawed off shotgun, a silencer and a flash suppressor device, according to the sheriff.
"We had information that he was in the area," Wilson said, adding that the Curry County Sheriff's Office contacted Del Norte County. "He was wanted out of Oregon on numerous charges: conspiracy to commit burglary in the first degree, burglary in the first degree, robbery in the first degree, robbery in the second degree, two counts of unlawful possession of a Schedule I controlled substances and assault in the third degree."
Wilson said his deputies knew Pelletier from previous run-ins and thought they knew where he would be. The warrant from Curry County listed Pelletier's bail at $475,000, Wilson said.
On April 12, following the home invasion robbery, Curry County sheriff deputies arrested 23-year-old Bobby Landers, of Brookings, in connection with the crimes against Haussler, according to the Pilot. Deputies also arrested Hannah Fallert, 23, who lives with Landers, after discovering methamphetamine and heroin.
Landers was charged with robbery, burglary and theft as well as third-degree assault and possession of methamphetamine and heroin, according to the Pilot. Fallert was charged with possession of a controlled substance.
On April 14, Curry County deputies arrested 23-year-old Kayla Ledford in connection with the home invasion robbery, according to the Pilot. Ledford, who was with Haussler at the time of the robbery, was booked into the Curry County jail on charges of first-degree conspiracy to commit burglary and first-degree robbery.

Carl Frampton: Not all fighters are made for professional boxing
Tommy McCarthy is a fighter with a bright future and his team seem to be willing to give him proper tests that will help him progress up the rankings but it concerns me to see too many guys who are being given a false sense of security in the ring.
Bringing a fighter along at the right pace, with the right opponents is crucial and in my own career my manager Barry McGuigan did a good job in giving me a step up in class each time I fought. I can only remember one time, in my third fight when I fought a guy who wasn't up to scratch but that was because he was a very late change of opponent.
In the early days I was taken across the country for sparring and I learned so much from that and won my world title in my 19th fight which was quite an achievement. Tommy did well in his sixth fight beating Courtney Fry last weekend and I know he has been going to England and other places for a few weeks good sparring which will help him a lot — and Tommy is a talented fighter so he can move quickly up the ladder, particularly in the cruiserweight division where there's not a great depth of talent. I see him fighting for a British title within four or five fights.
But the worrying thing is seeing some guys turning pro who really should stay amateur. I know everyone has dreams but professional boxing is a different business altogether to any other sport. People who don't know boxing can be walking down the street, bump into someone who tells them they're a professional boxer and automatically that person will think the fighter must be very good but the fact is you don't have to be very good to be a pro boxer. It's not like golf or football when, if you sign a professional contract, then you must be of a certain level and play in a certain division. In boxing, there's nothing to stop you being a professional fighter.
Of course the sport needs those who are known as journeymen and good journeymen make a career out of surviving four or six rounds so they can go on to the next pay-day — and there's a certain amount of learning you get from that. But now there seems to be boxers who are being fed journeyman after journeyman and they start to believe their own hype and even get arrogant and those behind them keep telling them they'll be a champion and that's dangerous.
Once one of these protected fighters — normally the ones who sell tickets — gets hit back they just don't know what to do, they find themselves in big trouble and boxing is an unforgiving sport and that's why it's so important to have the right team around you, being honest with you, because not everyone can become a British, European or World champion, or even an Area champion.
If you look at America, they have loads of so-called journeymen who would beat some of those seen as prospects in the UK.
My gym-mate Josh Taylor fought a really tough guy on his debut in El Paso. The guy came out winging from the start and Josh had to be really on his game and did very well to stop him. I'm not sure what the answer is but I think those closest to the boxer, the parents, need to talk to someone who knows the business before they encourage their son to turn pro.
You can't allow yourself to be deluded in professional boxing, it's too tough.

There is a wide range of architects and residential designers available for hire to design your new home. Hiring a good architect will be much better than mediocre designer. In the same breath, a great designer will be much larger than the mediocre architect advantage.
Although most jurisdictions allow a construction company or home owner to design a home, provided it is built with local safety standards, there are advantages to hiring a professional designer. An architect takes years
of study and practical experience in addition to a level of responsibility for the architecture of an house. And in many municipalities across the house of a certain size must be stamped by an architect. On the other hand, when more than 10-15% of the construction budget will go toward architect's fees, many homeowners hire an architect prohibitive.
Designers residential systems provide owners with a competitive
alternative to hiring an architect. On the downside, there are some jurisdictions governing the operation (and ethics) of residence design professionals. It's a job that say "anyone can do it", which is not quite
accurate. Though in most cases, anyone can design a house, not anyone can create a well-designed (as everyone can paint a picture, but few people can create a masterpiece) at home. home architect are passionate about the design of the house and spend their time exclusively in the field, while many architects are able to design a new construction homes could spend most of his time running an office or work in non-residential projects.
Most of my houses were designed by non-architects. These architect
design have spent their careers absorbed in the design of large houses and have perfected the art of his craft.
A good residential designer will provide most of the same services as would an architect, including appropriate home construction details in the light of local codes and ordinances and zoning and diagrams
and specifications and even landscape architect will provide home landscape for you. They also coordinate with local design engineers, interior designers and suppliers also make numerous site visits to ensure compliance with the design. You can not only save a lot of money on architectural fees, pay as little as 3% for full service, but achieving superior design in the process.

I ask because my 2 daughters (now ages 5 & 6) are growing up, and their innate characteristics seem to become more evident with each passing day.
My older daughter, Abby, is a lot like me; she loves reading, language and teaching. Show her a strange 15 letter word and she can sound it out, no problem. But ask her how to open up a ketchup bottle lid and she'll just unscrew it all the way- she doesn't seem to notice the indentation in the cap that will make it easy to open and pour.
My younger daughter, Avery, however, has always been so interesting to me- particularly given my work with Acuity. Ever since she could walk, she has been a tinkerer. Lining up towels across the living room floor to make shapes, knot tying, teaching herself how to tie her shoes, etc.
Here's a recent example: We went to a birthday party the other day, and the facility had a wood shop. Each child could choose 8 different-shaped blocks to make anything they wanted, and a toolbox containing a clamp, a hand drill, some small nails, and a small hammer. The kids around us were building cool planes, barns, etc. Avery worked a bit differently. She put the pieces together in a seemingly haphazard yet very deliberate way but there was no obvious "shape" being created. The whole time I was thinking to myself, "Umm. I have NO IDEA what you are doing, but okay."
When she was done, I STILL had absolutely no clue what it was. Just then, she held it up proudly and said, "Look, mom! It's a POWER RANGERS GUN!"
So, how about you? When did you realize you were an engineer? I'd love to hear your stories!
PS- Pardon the background mess- my husband hadn't cleaned up after the batch of beer he created that day. We do live in Portland, after all!

You should be able to update to whatever version of the application you want.
Or downgrade if you want etc.
The numbers in the next Ubuntu or any other distribution means that they updated something since last update like new kernel or couple of major apps like window manager for example or xorg-server. To avoid any problems with full upgrade, i would suggest to update one by one (major programs and packages) and when you will have your 'system' up-to-date and working then perform full update for the rest.
I would start with the kernel first, then gcc, systemd, then xorg-server, then gnome, kde or whatever you prefer. after all that, go for the rest of the packages. On the end you will have system more up-to-date than this Ubuntu 16-something version.
good luck and don't forget to backup important data just in case.
...run it as you would be from an internal drive, albeit slower...

Chronic ankle pain, four years after surgery: Reflex Sympathetic Dystrophy ?
Patient : Since I had surgery on my ankle four years ago (bone fragment chipped off) I have always had pain, every day. There are times that I can barely bare weight on it. Right now is one of those times, I'm taking Ibprophen and have a brace on. My job requires constant standing or walking so, I'm suffering with this problem and I don't know what to do about it. Any thoughts or suggestions would be greatly appreciated.
Doctor : Unfortunately, one can't predict the exact outcome in terms of pain after an ankle surgery, the surgeon takes care of th the fracture, but in a percentage of patients there is persistent pain by unknown reasons, to this also contributes if the patient is an overweight individual, which suppose an extra stress on the joint. For these kind of patients is very important the rehabilitation program post operative. Your case may be managed as chronic ankle pain .You might benefit of Physical Therapy and anti-inflammatory medication. Some antidepressants are useful as part of the management of chronic pain. In addition, these medications may improve the patient's ability to cope, and they may reduce depression, anxiety, or fatigue associated with chronic pain. Local anesthetics, corticosteroids, or other substances may be directly injected into painful soft tissues and joints. Would be also important to rule out according with the timing of the events and your description of the symptoms, a complication of the fracture called Reflex Sympathetic Dystrophy (RSD), it can be considered an excessive sympathetic reaction (the sympathetic is part of the "automatic" nervous system) of joints and soft tissues around to any injury, traumatic or unknown. RSD is characterized by pain, regional edema, joint stiffness, muscular atrophy, vasomotor disturbances like temperature and color changes), skin changes, and regional bone demineralization seen on X-rays. These changes are worsen by activity and extend over a larger area than the primary injury or surgery, including the area distal to this focus.

Kobe Bryant confirmed in an interview with ESPN radio Wednesday he will appeal the $100,000 fine against him for mouthing an antigay slur at a referee during Tuesday night's game.
Bryant said the appeal is "standard protocol," but told listeners of the Mason & Ireland show on ESPN 710 in Los Angeles that he's taking responsibility for his words.
"The comment that I made, even though it wasn't meant in the way it was perceived to be, is nonetheless wrong, so it's important to own that," the Los Angeles Lakers star said. "The concern that I have is for those that follow what I say and are inspired by how I play or look to me as a role model or whatever it is, for them not to take what is said as a message of hate or a license to degrade or embarrass or tease. That's something I don't want to see happen. It's important for me to talk about that issue because it"s OK to be who you are, and I don't want this issue to be a part of something or to magnify something that shouldn't be."
Bryant was caught yelling at the referee after he punched a chair on the sidelines. Video showed him mouthing an antigay slur at the referee, but audible confirmation from the bench was not immediately available.
NBA commissioner David Stern called Bryant's actions "offensive and inexcusable." He added, "While I'm fully aware that basketball is an emotional game, such a distasteful term should never be tolerated. Accordingly, I have fined Kobe $100,000. Kobe and everyone associated with the NBA know that insensitive or derogatory comments are not acceptable and have no place in our game or society."
Bryant is one of the highest-paid players in the NBA, pulling in nearly $25 million this season.
"What I said last night should not be taken literally," Bryant said in a statement Wednesday afternoon. "My actions were out of frustration during the heat of the game, period. The words expressed do NOT reflect my feelings towards the gay and lesbian communities and were NOT meant to offend anyone."
Bryant scored 27 points in Tuesday night's game, taking the team to a 102-93 win against the Spurs.

Aaron Graffin injury adds to sorry Antrim's woes
Westmeath 1-21 Antrim 0-07
Antrim boss Kevin Ryan said his side's collapse in Mullingar was inexplicable after the high of getting their first win the previous week, with a serious injury to defender Aaron Graffin compounding matters.
The Saffrons' hopes of advancing in the Leinster SHC nosedived in the wind and rain at Cusack Park and their final pool game against Carlow will be more about avoiding relegation to the Christy Ring Cup than setting up a provincial quarter-final date.
Ryan did not offer the dreadful weather as an excuse but, in fairness, they suffered a huge blow when defender Graffin was stretchered off with a serious knee injury in the opening minutes.
"I didn't think at the time it would upset us really but it did, it knocked fellas back a bit," said Ryan.
His men recovered from the loss of Graffin and points from Eoghan Campbell and Paul Shiels make it 0-3 to 0-2 after 22 minutes.
However, Westmeath took over and with Shane Power superb in defence, Antrim didn't score again in the opening half.
And at the other end Westmeath opened their shoulders and pulled away, hitting seven points in a blistering nine-minute spell which left Antrim reeling.
But the key score came shortly before the break when Robbie Greville sent O'Brien through and he set up Devine for a fine goal.
That sent Westmeath in leading by 1-13 to 0-2 at the break and there was no way back for Antrim, even though Ciaran Clarke got the opening score after the restart.
"Everything going into it was so good. Everyone training all the week, very serious and absolutely flying and everything right up to the start and I don't know I just cannot put a finger on it.
"I thought we had turned that corner and we had to an extent, everything was good and feeling good and everyone was very serious. There was never a word of complacency or anything like it, it is just unexplainable how a lot of us didn't show up," added Ryan.
Antrim just never had the penetration to get in for the goal which might have ignited a comeback.
Ciaran Johnson looked sharp when introduced and he picked off a couple of points but Neil McManus limped off and is a doubt for the clash with Carlow.
"We don't know the extent of it, we think he twisted his knee as well," added Ryan.
"It'll be a serious blow as well if he is not right for two weeks but we don't know it's a case of seeing where that is in the morning."
Michael Ryan admitted they did not expect to have it so easy against Antrim, not least after their win over Laois.
"I suppose it was a bit easier than we thought it would be but we got off to a good start and the injury upset Antrim early on but the attitude of players here today was fantastic," said Ryan.
