And It was witnessed by over \w persons, most of them enthusiastic Bllevers In the products of the famous (oap manufacturer.

FOUR WOULD BE CHIEF REALTY REVIVING ON OF LYNBROOK FIREMEN A SUBSTANTIAL BASIS "Larry" O'Brien Out of Running Af-; Decided Activity in Building on ter Entering Against Schwartzer - South Side-Many Bungalo\ys and Three Others in Contest Cottages in Course of Erection Although he actually toed the mark In the annual race for fire department honors, following his open declaration that he was no third termer, "Larry" O'Brien, twice chief of the Lynbrook vamps has retired. This latest an¬ nouncement comes at a time when four men are out for thp olhce, includ¬ ing Henry .Schweitzer, who was defeat¬ ed last year, and against whom the chief declared liis intention of run¬ ning. The condilion of affairs among the liremen is exceptional, for there is hut one department ticket in the field. Thomas Christlanson, Second Assist¬ ant Chief, is the candidate for Chief; Kdward Donlon, head of the lou«i. po¬ lice force, for First Assistant, and Harold Blake, for Second Assistant. The latter is unopposed. Besides Christlanson, who is freely predicted will win, and Schweitzer; tieorge Kbfrling, the present First As- sistaui Chief, and Dr. Simon Schleich¬ er, are declared candiadtes. Donlon Is opposed by Charles Hanson and Joseph Merrill. A lively election is looked for. Each of the candidates will have the sup¬ port of their friends in the depart¬ ment, and a decided split In the vote is exepected. GRAIN FOR STARVING BIRDS Old Scandinavian Custom Adopted by Oceanside Poultryman. Ralph Marion, nn extensive poultry raiser and farm manager of Oceanside, has adopted an ancient Scandinavian custom for feeding wild fowl and other birds that have suffered greatly for lack of nourlshraent during the past two months l)ecau8e of sevre wea¬ ther. Sheaves of rye, oats or wheal are placed on the ridgepoles of barns In Norway, Sweden and Danish com¬ munities to fed the birds and .Mr. Marion started the plan ^t his place Sunday. Meadow larks, starlings, woodpeck¬ ers and several varieties of sparrows found the grain quickly and within a short time dozens of the birds were picking out the grain from tbe sheaves. The plan will be continued by Mr. Marlon until the weather moderates and the birds can obtain food from regular sources. By Samuel R. Fisk One of the strongest indications that real estate is reviving on a sub¬ stantial basis Is shown by the activity In building ihrougliout the Sodlh Side and other sections ot Long Island. At the present time, notwithstanding wea¬ ther conditions that have been decid¬ edly unfavorable, a number of cottages and bungalows are In course of erec¬ tion for occuiiancy by owners. ,Sonie are for the spring market. These buildings range in cost from $2,500 to |,'),(»(I0 or over. All are oT modern de¬ sign and equipped with modern im¬ provements. In addition to the homo structures, there are a number of busi¬ ness buildings under construction in .several villages. With tho coming of spring, which it is hoped it is not far off, real estate agents anticipate that business will he better than during a,ny similar period for several years past. The money market has shown more strength lately, loans for building pur¬ poses being not so diliicuif lo obtain as during the late fall and early win¬ ter. CONVEYANCES. X. Y.. B. ^ Sub. Ry.

Five New Culinary Skills to Master in the New Year
While everyone is talking about classic hard-to-fulfill New Year's resolutions like "lose 10 pounds!" and drinking less (wah!), why not focus on something that adds to your arsenal of culinary and wine skills instead? Below are our five picks for ways to increase your bragging rights.
Learn to Make Burrata
This is actually a dangerous skill to have, but you'll be adored by anyone in your life for knowing how to make burrata. Urban Kitchen hosts classes at the Ferry Plaza Farmers Market at the Ferry Building on how to make burrata, along with yogurt, pickles, mead, and other classes, like butchery and backyard chickens (those last two are two separate classes, mind you). The burrata class is coming up on February 19th.
Get Smarter About Wine
There is always a lot to learn about wine, and fortunately there are a bunch of local sources you can learn more from. Take a class at the San Francisco Wine Center, and odds are you'll have a local sommelier teaching your class. Additional locations include the San Francisco Wine School or the North American Wine School. You can also stay home and take a six-week class on your iPad (or computer) created by Master Sommelier Catherine Fallis for $99.
Become a Butchery Badass
Ryan Farr of 4505 Meats is well known around town for his prowess with meat (he even has a book about butchery). You can take a variety of classes, from hog butchery to sausage making. You can also check out classes from Dave the Butcher.
Achieve Coffee Brewmeister Status
18 Reasons hosts a variety of classes every week on everything from pasta making to wine tasting. An upcoming class on January 22nd with Hanna Neuschwander (the author of Left Coast Roast) will focus on "slow coffee" you can make at home, like French press, pour over, and Aeropress.
Polish Your Pasta-Making Skills
Homemade pasta is (almost) always a thing of beauty—well, when it's done right. If you want to learn from a real Italian, be sure to take a class from Cooking with Rosetta, who focuses on the cuisine of Calabria. The new San Francisco Cooking School is offering a pasta class on January 29th, and Flour + Water regularly hosts pasta-making classes (a new series is starting up on January 9th).

Although visiting a cemetery is not everyone's idea of fun, there are really people who find cemeteries fascinating, especially if they hold the remains of famous people. One of such cemeteries is the Cimitiere Attenant au Monastere de Cimiez in Nice. While not the greatest attraction, this cemetery offers one of the best sights of Nice when it is bathed in either sunlight or moonlight.
Overlooking the city from the Cimiez hilltop, the Cimitiere Attenant au Monastere de Cimiez is not one to inspire morbid thoughts, instead it offers a view into the best sights of Nice. Practically all the graves in this cemetery are ancient and a majority of them are individual chapels made of white marble, with some bearing beautiful sculptures. However, there are particularly two graves in this cemetery that truly holds its allure and these are those of the painters Henry Matisse and Raoul Dufy. These painters both died in Nice. While you can easily see the grave of Matisse, Dufy's small and discreet one is quite low and almost hidden from view.

University Websites
Create exemplary college websites with limited resources and organizational challenges
Universities that offer the best user experience have a competitive advantage. For college students especially, usability plays a large role in communicating brand and credibility. By writing and presenting information effectively, universities can impress and engage students and visitors.
Find out what students want from higher-education websites and how they decide to keep exploring or to give up. Learn best practices and success stories from universities who have been successful in making a business case for usability and demonstrating Return-On-Investment (ROI). Overcome challenges universities face such as organizational structure, culture, and limited human and financial resources.
We include examples from websites of colleges and universities around the world, of varying size, structure and academic focus. The recommendations and topics discussed are based on usability studies with representative users, stakeholder interviews, and competitive analysis.
Topics covered
- Learn what students and visitors need and how to feature it on the site
- Apply usability guidelines to enhance the brand, reputation, and credibility of your institution
Help students and visitors find the information they need, including
- Academic programs and course listings

Did anyone catch NBA Commissioner David Stern's remarks to the New Orleans Times-Picayune? He proudly announced that the Hornets are very close to having a new team owner with a sweet deal "that will have a very favorable lease, important capital improvements, intense tax benefits and a new TV deal to boot.'' First of all, I love how he describes the tax benefits as "intense." Second, has anyone bothered to think about what any of that means? Sorry to go all Dave Zirin on you, but check this out:
- A "favorable lease" translates to "cheap/zero rent," which is crucial, because guess who owns New Orleans Arena? The state of Louisiana. No revenue for you, LA, except whatever you can get out of concerts and the occasional crawfish convention. (But I'm sure that will be more than enough to recoup the $100+ million you charged taxpayers to build the place)
- "Important capital improvements" implies that somebody other than the team owner, such as the owners of New Orleans Arena (which is who again?) will be borrowing/taxing to pay for more luxury boxes for the ultra-wealthy so that they don't have to mix with the plebeians (a.k.a., the ones paying the taxes).
- "Intense tax benefits" means "intense tax benefits."
So congratulations, Louisiana, you're about to go even further in debt for the privilege of making some plutocrat even wealthier than he already is! I don't know why I'm upset over this—I mean, it's not like New Orleans has any infrastructure needs or anything! Well, other than the Lower 9th Ward, which apparently is in danger of turning into Cambodia circa-1975. The few remaining citizens are afraid to go outside because they might get attacked—not by drug dealers or rapists, by wild animals. But who cares when you've got the 2012-2013 Hornets: Catch the Buzz!
I'm probably just stalling to avoid talking about an even more depressing topic: the Bobcats. Like the Stop the Violence Movement, the Bobcats are headed for self-destruction. Each of the last two games was unbearable to watch in its own special way. Against the Raptors, you had two lost teams going nowhere. Toronto's fans, perhaps lulled to sleep by their country's sound banking system and universal health care, were abnormally quiet until the last minute, when the Raptors' ended their inexplicable 6-game losing streak to the Cats.
The following night's game against the Atlanta Hawks was an entirely different story. The game itself was a disaster almost immediately; the Bobcats were out of the picture faster than Christina Hendricks in Drive. Then, throughout the foregone conclusion of a blowout loss, television audiences had to suffer the twin terrors of 1) the Atlanta arena's relentless organ, and 2) color commentator Dominique Wilkins' relenting comments. I know most people hate the constant music that arenas blare, but I would argue that it's even worse when it's not the original music, but just organ Muzak of popular songs. And that's all Philips Arena plays—do they not own the licenses to anything? (I just hope Angus Young never hears the Muzak version of "Back in Black" because he'd probably pee his schoolboy shorts.) Meanwhile, it's one of the great ironies that Wilkins, nicknamed the "Human Highlight Reel" as a player, is actually incredibly boring as a highlight reel commentator. It's not that he's a jerk or anything; he just barely speaks at all—it's often just one banal sentence after a play, leaving tons of dead space…which is then filled up by the soundtrack to 20,000 Leagues Under the Sea. So the game was basically 150 minutes of the following:
- Kemba Walker botches a pick-and-roll with Bismack Biyombo leading to a Bobcats turnover
- Dominique Wilkins: "When you don't have good pick-and-roll bigs, it really makes it hard to run a pick-and-roll."
- (Organ: Muzak version of the White Stripes' "Seven Nation Army")
- Jeff Teague recovers the turnover, starts a fast break, and feeds Josh Smith an uncontested alley-oop
- Dominique Wilkins: "I'll tell you, the Hawks love getting those fast breaks; they really, really do. Especially when they end like that."
- (Organ: Muzak version of the Black-Eyed Peas' "I Gotta Feeling")
With every loss I feel that a canon should sound, like each time one of the children dies in The Hunger Games; it means we're that much closer to being the all-time losing-est team. Am I the only the only one who's bothered by this? C'mon, Bobcats!! I don't want to spend the rest of my life popping a bottle of champagne each year when the last team gets its eighth win.

Complexity and Emergence |
Drawing by Rachel Grobstein
From its birth in 1994, Serendip has been committed to exploring and creating "less wrong" ways of making sense of the world. Itself an exploration into the potentials of relatively undirected evolutionary systems in which chance plays a significant role, Serendip necessarily changes over time. Hence what was originally a major Serendip section on "complexity" has become in 2008 one on "complexity and emergence." This change mirrors wider changes in alternative intellectual perspectives: an increasing awareness that making sense of complexity requires not only an acknowledgment of its existence and the development of tools to analyze it but also an appreciation an important historical dimension. Complexity increasingly seems to be not "designed" but rather to emerge over time from from a relatively undirected evolutionary process beginning with simpler entities.Comments on and suggestions for additions are welcome in the associated on-line forum.

Within the cozy confines of Thai & Sushi's scarlet-walled eatery, taste buds can surf the fusion of flavors surging through a menu teeming with traditional Thai dishes and Japanese-style sushi platters. Tuna, salmon, shrimp, crab, and masago snuggle in a blanket of avocado and soy nori bedded down in the pineapple-slathered Hawaiian roll ($11.95). Olympic-medaled vegetable rolls lithely springboard from a platform of cucumber, avocado, asparagus, inari, and shiitake mushrooms into awaiting mouth caverns ($8) and pad thai chicken roosts in a spicy nest of rice noodles ($9.75). The sweet aroma of fresh ginger mingles with the sizzling serenade of chicken, beef, or pork and a garden-torn quartet of onions, mushrooms, bell peppers, and expatriated lawn gnomes ($9.95).
Voted Best Thai restaurant in 2009 and Best Restaurant for a First Date in 2008 by Creative Loafing, Spoon boasts a menu that is simple yet playful. Chef Aim Suteeluxnaporn, who runs Spoon with her sister Sujaree, adds spicy twists to authentic Thai mainstays such as chicken satay ($8), pad thai ($8 lunch, $9 dinner), and red curry with eggplant and zucchini ($11 for dinner), serving them as works of edible art presented on inedible plate-frames. Like the new Butterfinger candy bar, noodles, curry dishes, stir-fries, and seafood can be prepared medium spicy, hot, or Thai hot. The eatery's specialty entrees include the golden red snapper ($17) topped with a light ginger sauce and toasted sesame seeds. All entrees can be specially prepared with either tofu or vegetables to accommodate vegetarians.
Locally sourced produce and meats mingle with imported Thai spices on Surin's hefty menu, which considerately calls out spicy dishes with 0–3 chili-pepper symbols. Embark on an epicurean adventure to Southeast Asia with a helping of fancy Thai sausages ($6.50) or a suitcase filled with the tender beef fillets and spices of the nuer nom tok ($9.50), served with crisp cabbage leaves for wrapping. Shrimp and asparagus offer companionship to the star crustaceans of the soft-shell crab dish ($18), and egg, broccoli, and garlic exhibit their friendliness by offering to french-braid the flat noodles of the pad see-u entree ($10.50). Chefs can whip up Thai curries in three levels of spiciness, the highest of which comes with its own tongue-cooling ice sculpture melted into a water glass.
Housed in the W Atlanta-Midtown, Spice Market bursts with the rich colors and flavors of Southeast Asia. Owner and chef Jean-Georges Vongerichten takes diners on a whirlwind tour of New Delhi, Bangkok, and Saigon via delicately spiced dishes. Begin your journey with toothsome peekytoe-crab dumplings served with sugar snap peas ($15) or spiced chicken samosas dipped in cilantro yogurt ($8). All dishes are served family style, inviting diners to set aside bitter primogeniture disputes and grandfather each other in to heaping platters of sautéed snapper with asparagus and shitake mushrooms ($24). The aromatic grilled strip steak rubbed in garlic, coriander, and sesame ($28) separates the men from the boys, the women from the girls, and the girls from the boys if they get too rowdy at co-ed canoe camp. Refresh your palate with a signature cocktail such as the lychee-raspberry Bellini (Cava Brut Reserva 06 Mont Marcal, lychee, and raspberry, $12), or knock back an Asian beer such as Kirin, Singha, Tsing Tao and Kingfisher (each $5). For dessert, nibble Ovaltine kulfi with caramelized banana and spiced milk-chocolate sauce ($7).
Mali Restaurant offers menus of fresh sushi and traditional Thai fare in a warm, chic setting. Lunchtime diners can sample starters such as the customer favorite basil rolls filled with homemade barbecued pork, shrimp, noodles, and vegetables, served with dip-encouraging tamarind sauce ($5). Make it a seasoning motif with a main course of Chinese eggplant with basil, sautéed with onion and pepper in a spicy basil sauce ($8). Dinner partakers can wake drowsing taste buds with an appetizer of satay marinated in Thai herbs and curry powder ($9) or nosh on sushi selections such as the hole-free bagel roll filled with smoked salmon, cream cheese, and scallion ($6.50). Entrees include classic noodle dishes as well as mouth-watering meats such as the grilled duck breast with red curry, bedecked with pineapple, peach, and vegetables ($16). Yowling sweet teeth can be silenced with a dessert of fried banana with coconut ice cream ($7), while of-age appetites can be sated with a quaff such as the restaurant's own Thai tea-ni ($8), a blend of tea-infused and vanilla vodkas, sweetened Thai tea, and milk, sure to whet whistles and inspire whistles and soft-shoe routines of admiration.
On Iron Chef America, Chef Tyson Wong Ophaso elevated curry to new culinary heights, incorporating the piquant spice into banana ice cream and braised sweetbreads. At King & I Restaurant, though, the lauded chef sticks to traditional Thai recipes and culinary techniques. Bamboo shoots and potatoes simmer in an antique steamer, and chefs grind spices with the same mortar and pestle that the original owner used 30 years ago. Additionally, Chef Ophaso enhances his menu of curries and seafood by plucking organic veggies from the restaurant's own garden, nearby farmers' markets, or the fruit hats of passing conga lines.

I have recently reformatted my computer , everything is running fine except from the CPU which is only running at 2.9ghz , i increased the Multiplier on BIOS to x21 which put it back up to 4.2ghz but? i feel this is incorrect , i bought my PC from overclockers as well about a year ago. Please can you help. From increasing my CPU hertz on the multiplier it has restarted a few times which insinuates to me i have done something wrong.
Please help guys i have:
motherboard: GIGABYTE - 78LMT-S2P
Processor: AMD FX Quad core 4.2ghz
Graphics card: Radeon HD series 6900 2gb
Ram: Kingston 8gb ram 1333mhz
Harddrive: 500gb
OS: Windows 7 64bit
Which FX Quad-Core did you buy?! FX-4100? FX-4300? FX-4170? FX-4130?
The CPU may be throttling because it overheating or something. Have you had a look at your idle and load temperatures? Use HWMonitor and take some readings. Use CPU-Z to make sure the chip is running at your indicated speeds.
What Power Supply do you have installed in that system? Please provide the brand & model (i.e. Corsair TX650 650W).
Also, since you reformatted your computer, have you installed the motherboard chipset drivers, Ethernet drivers, USB drivers, etc?
Phenom II X6 1090T @ 4.1GHz // ASUS Crosshair V Formula 990FX // Sapphire Radeon HD Dual-X 7970 // Thermaltake Frio w/ push-pull (using Antec Formula 7 Nano Diamond paste!!) // 8GB (2 X 4GB) G.Skill RipJaws DDR3 1600MHz @ 8-9-8-34-21-1T // Corsair TX850 850W // Corsair Force GT 120GB SSD (OS) // Kingston 200 V+ 120GB SSD // WD Caviar Black 1TB // Windows 7 Ult x64 // Logitech X-540
According to Gigabytes cpu support list your motherboard dose not support the 125W FX-4170 or any cpu over 95W.
AMD FX 4170 , and yes i have already got both the CPU monitors downloaded and the temperatures are very low and this is where i first discovered it was only running at 2.9ghz.
Yep installed all the drivers etc .
this could be the reason why then slayer! so basically a new motherboard is needed right?
Maybe something with the 970 chipset or if your planning on running more than one gpu 990FX chipset would be even better
If the BIOS is F5A then the motherboard should be fine.
I'd suggest contacting overclockers (assuming its the .co.uk one) and ask them, they're normally very helpful.
Well that's very odd... What revision is your board because both Slayer and RedGreen are correct.
So it seems we need more info to be able to help you
The MONSTER HTPC:
CPU: AMD FX-8350.||.Cooler: Corsair H80i MB: Gigabyte 990FXA-UD7.||.RAM: 8 GB Mushkin Blackline DDR3 2000MHz (7-10-8-27-1T) Case: CoolerMaster HAF 932.||.PSU: Corsair HX750 GPU:Asus R9 270X DirectCU II TOP.||.Audio: Creative X-Fi Titanium Fatal1ty Pro w/ Logitech Z-5300e (5.1, 280W-RMS) Drive: 2xMushkin Chronos 60GB RAID0.||.Storage: 8TB (4x500GB Caviar Black RAID0, 2TB Hitachi & 2x2TB Caviar Green)
sorry its :
AMD FX - 4170 4200MHz 1MB x 48MB Bulldozer 32nmB2 125W 5200
GA-78LMT-S2P ( rev x5 ).
hope you can help.
Indeed if it is Rev 5.x then your CPU is NOT supported.
so what would i say to overclockers.co.uk you have sold me a pc at which the motherboard does not support the CPU ghz :/ lol
For example , would this one work ?? if that the motherboard was the case: http://www.overclockers.co.uk/showproduct.php?prodid=MB-385-GI&groupid=701&catid=1903&subcat=
ok dude thanks for the help! at least now i know
hi would - AMD Bulldozer FX-4 4300 3.80ghz work on the motherboard!?
If they sold you that motherboard and CPU combo, then yes that is exactly what I would ask
this is what motherboard they are going to replace it with -
GA-78LMT-S2P (rev. 3.1)
This one should work yeah?
This table is for Rev. 3.1
The125W FX-4170 is listed as supported with BIOS F5a, so if the board comes with that bios, great, if not, be prepared to flash it.
Thats a real noob mistake for guys who build pc's.
I wounder if the guy who built it had a hang over that day lol
So do ASUS, and Foxconn, and MSI, and ASRock, and... etc. lol, he should know that.

Whats a good paint to use on EPP like my TH's Edge 540. I got the Edge 540 landing gear from them also. But the wheel pants are white. I kinda wanted them to match the fuse. Alittle anyways. I found some Kylon acrylic. Just wondering what other types or brands to use.

This might seem kinda wierd but I wanted to show you how I drill a hole in EPP. You heat the BB while holding it with tweezers or pliers then place it where you want the hole. Gravity does the rest. It'll go stright down and fall out the bottom. The hotter the BB or what ever size metal ball you use the faster and strighter the BB falls.

I just tried to paint a piece of EPP foam with cheap rattle can spray paint from Wal Wart and it looks like a winner. It didn't melt, yet. I'll check it in the morning. I know EPP is some tuff stuff but I didn't know you could paint it with spray paint. Live and learn.

Figured I would contribute my first paint job to this thread, a 42" Sbach 342 from Fancy Foam.
SpectraTex paints were used here, out of my PEAK X3 brushes. Now what kind of pressures are you guys out there using for painting this stuff? i sprayed this at 30-40 psi and the whole place was fogged up in no time, thinking of trying a much lower pressure, like hard surface painters do, around 10 psi, I'll have to reduce the paint some though. |

Check out our How to Assemble a Complete Skateboard instruction video.
Decks come in many different widths. If you are a beginner to skateboarding, choose your deck according to the width, not the length or wheelbase. The width you need depends on your size, skating style and personal preference. Here are some general guidelines.
7.5" to 8" - Standard board for adult riders skating streets or doing more technical tricks
8.0" to 8.25" - Skating pools, ramps and parks
8.25" and larger - Vert, pools, cruising and just going old school
Let's get some of the skateboard lingo down first. The skateboard deck is the actual board itself. The skateboard deck is the flat, long board that you stand on when skateboarding. Warehouse Skateboards offer a huge selection of skateboard decks in a variety of shapes, sizes, weight and color patterns. Skateboard decks vary in size but most are between 7"-10", and are made of either seven-ply wood, bamboo, resin, carbon fiber or plastic. Deciding which skateboard deck is best for you depends on what you will be skating and, of course, your personal brand preference.
Check out our massive selection of skateboard decks.
If you still have questions about skateboard deck sizing, please contact Customer Service.
Skateboard trucks are the metal T-shaped pieces that mount onto the underside of the skateboard deck. When selecting skateboard trucks, the width of your truck axle should closely match the width of your skateboard deck. The truck size can be measured by the width of the hanger or the width of the axle. Every skateboard requires two trucks.
There are several parts that make up the skateboard trucks. The axle is the pin that runs through the trucks to which the wheels will attach. The hanger, usually made of metal, is the largest part of the skateboard truck that is somewhat triangular in shape. The axle runs through the hanger. The kingpin is the large bolt that holds these parts together and fits inside the skateboard bushings.
When purchasing, you will receive the two trucks necessary to assemble your skateboard. Skateboard trucks come in various sizes and colors, and Warehouse Skateboards carries a huge selection of brands to fit your personal preference.
6"-7.25" truck axle - 6.5" to 7.25" skateboard decks
7.5" truck axle - 7.25 to 7.5" skateboard decks
7.75" truck axle - 7.5" to 8" skateboard decks
8.0" truck axle - 8" to 8.5" Width skateboard decks
8.5" truck axle - 8.5" to 9" skateboard decks
9.0" truck axle - 9" to 10" skateboard decks
10.0" truck axle - 10" wide and above skateboard decks
Truck profile is the distance between the bottom of the skate deck and the hanger. In general, a mid-sized truck works well for most skateboarders, but high or low trucks may be preferred for different styles of skaters.
Provides extra stability for flip tricks, designed for small wheels (50-53mm wheel size recommended).
Good all-around profile for street or park (53-56mm wheel size recommended).
Great for cruising and carving, designed for large wheels (56mm+ wheel size recommended).
Check out our massive selection of skateboard trucks.
If you still have questions about skateboard truck sizing, please contact Customer Service.
Skateboard wheels vary in color, size and durability. Skateboard wheels are most commonly made of polyurethane. The diameter and durometer of the wheel affect the way the board rides. The diameter and durometer are a matter of personal preference and skating style.
Diameter - All Skateboard wheels are measured in millimeters (mm). The smaller the number, the smaller the wheel. Smaller wheels are slower; bigger wheels are faster.
50-53mm | Small slower wheels, stable for trick riding and smaller riders skating street, skate parks and bowls. |
54-59mm | Average wheel size for beginners and bigger riders skating street, skate parks, bowls and vert ramps. |
60mm + | Specialty riders skating longboards, old-school boards, downhill and dirt boards; made for speed and rougher surfaces. |
Durometer measures the wheel's hardness. Harder wheels are faster; softer wheels are slower but have better grip.
Skateboard wheel durometer is usually measured on a Durometer A Scale which goes from 1-100 to measure hardness. Some companies use the B Scale which measures 20 points lower, allowing the scale to be extended by 20 points for harder wheels. So an 80b durometer is the same as 100a durometer. These skateboard wheels have a larger and more accurate range of hardness. The average wheel durometer is 99a.
78a-87a | Soft wheel good for rough surfaces, longboards or street boards that need lots of grip and easier to roll over cracks and pebbles. Designed for a smooth ride cruising, longboards, hills and rough surfaces. |
88a-95a | Slightly harder and faster with a little less grip, but the grip's still good. Street; rough surfaces. |
96a-99a | Good speed and grip - an all-around wheel. Great for beginners skating street, skate parks, ramps and pools. Smooth surfaces. |
101a + | Hardest and fastest wheel with the least grip. Ineffective on slick and rough surfaces. These are pro wheels. |
83b-84b | Wheels using the B scale are extremely hard, measuring 20 points lower than the the A Scale in order to allow the scale to extend another 20 points for harder wheels. |

All skateboard bearings are the same size, so you don't need to worry about size when selecting bearings. However, the ABEC rating denotes the quality of materials and precision used in manufacturing the bearing. Higher rated bearings are higher quality.
Skateboard bearings are used to mount the skateboard wheels to the skateboard axle. Skateboard bearings are all the same size and will fit any skateboard wheel that Warehouse Skateboards sells. While they do not vary in size, they do vary in quality. The rule of thumb tends to be that the more expensive the skateboard bearings, the higher the quality. When you choose to purchase inexpensive bearings, they tend to be made with cheaper materials, so when you come to a sudden stop, your board may not perform as well. The more expensive skateboard bearings are actually made with better sealing, more inner ball bearings and higher-quality metals.
Most bearings are measured by an ABEC rating. The higher the ABEC rating, the more accurate and precise the bearing will be. This rating system includes grades 1,3,5,7 and 9. The closer you get to an ABEC 9 rating, the faster and less friction you will have when skateboarding.
ABEC 1 skateboard bearings tend to be the least expensive, most crude and the least precise.
ABEC 3 skateboard bearings tend to be inexpensive and do not roll very smoothly or fast.
ABEC 5 skateboard bearings are the norm in skateboarding. With this rating you get a good amount of speed at an average cost.
ABEC 7 skateboard bearings are very fast and smooth and tend to be slightly more expensive.
ABEC 9 and higher skateboard bearings are extremely fast and are used more for downhill skating and skaters that want to go insanely fast.
Many companies do not use the ABEC rating scale, such as Bones Bearings. Bones Bearings use their own rating system known as Skate Rated. These bearings do not follow the ABEC ratings because they are superior in quality and the ABEC rating ignores many quality factors in which Bones Bearings prides itself.
Check out the wide variety of skateboard bearings in stock.
If you still have questions about skateboard bearing ratings, please contact Customer Service.
Skateboard hardware, also known as mounting hardware, is used to connect the skateboard trucks to the skateboard deck. Skateboard hardware refers to the nuts, bolts, locknuts and screws used when building a skateboard. The screws can have an Allen or Phillips head. Skateboard hardware come in many different lengths, and often include one different color bolt so that the rider can mark the nose of the skateboard.
Each skateboard hardware set includes 8 bolts and 8 locknuts. The set will be used to attach the skateboard truck to the skateboard deck. If you are looking to buy bolts and locknuts individually, you can certainly purchase them that way as well by searching our skateboard hardware inventory from low to high price.
7/8" to 1" hardware - no riser
1" to 1 1/8" hardware - 1/8" riser
1 1/4" hardware - 1/4" riser
1 1/2" hardware - 1/2" riser
Check out the skateboard hardware we currently have in stock.
If you still have questions about skateboard hardware sizing, please contact Customer Service.
Grip tape is sold in single sheets that are 9" X 33". The bottom of the sheet will peel off, revealing a very sticky underside that will stick to the top of the skateboard deck. Once applied to your skateboard, use a box cutter or razor blade to cut your grip tape to fit your skateboard deck exactly.
Grip tape is a gritty, sandpaper-like material that is applied with adhesive to the top of the skateboard deck to provide traction. Grip tape allows the rider's feet to grip the surface of the skateboard deck and helps the skater stay on the board while doing tricks. Warehouse Skateboards offers a variety of colors and patterns of grip tape. Grip tape can be used to brighten a board, add texture and express your personal style. While grip tape is most often found in black, it is available in clear to allow you to show off a company logo, or die-cut to display a design and/or color of your skateboard deck.
If you have questions, watch our video on How to Grip Tape a Skateboard.
Check out the wide variety of skateboard grip tape in stock.
Check out the available skateboard riser pads currently in stock.
A riser is a flat plastic pad that can be mounted between the skateboard truck and the skateboard deck. Riser pads increase the space between the truck and deck, raising the board up so that you don't experience wheel bite. Wheel bite occurs when the wheel touches the skateboard deck during a sharp turn and stops the wheel from rotating. Riser pads come in a variety of colors and thickness. Depending on your skateboarding style, riser pads can prolong the life of your skateboard deck by reducing the risk for stress cracks where the deck and the trucks meet.
Skateboard decks that use wheels smaller than 55mm do not typically require risers; however, 1/8" risers can help keep the hardware from vibrating loose.
As the wheels get larger, there's a greater chance for wheel bite, which may cause a nasty wipeout. In general, the longer the board and the larger the wheel, the more height is needed in a riser pad.
If you still have questions about riser pad sizing, please contact Customer Service.

You have a beautiful property and impressive musical talents but letting bears eat your food will eventually get the bear killed! Please keep food in a bear-proof container, here's a link to the city's page for bear resistant trash containers: http://www.cityofmonrovia.org/city-government/departments/public-works-a-utilities/environmental-services.
Although it's not enforced, it is unlawful to fail to secure your food/garbage.

The bear in the video is both beautiful and powerful. Thanks very much, Cheryl, for sharing the video. Alas, Chris is right, a fed bear is a dead bear, and I am glad that Cheryl is on top of stopping the bear from being able to feed its fatal addiction to easy human food. A while ago we had a bear that helped himself to the contents of my next-door neighbors' trash container. I went out to see what the noise was, not knowing it was caused by a bear. When I saw the bear, you may rest assured that I went back inside of my house promptly! My neighbors are now keeping their trash containers in their garage, inaccessible to bears who simply don't realize how dangerous human food is to them.

Whoa! This bear is not only well fed but is extremely overweight. It has a beautiful coat but I couldn't help thinking while watching that it wasn't acting "right". If it knew it was being watched, it might have felt intimidated. Unfortunately, garbage eating bears sometimes eat things that aren't good for them. It's important for the bears and for us to keep garbage secure. I'm glad you've gotten a bear-proof container.

This is not a healthy bear. He appears to be old ,overweight and unstable. I wonder if animal control has looked at this video. I have seen many bears here in town. Most are robust and active in their movement. This guy worries me, A sick bear is a dangerous bear.

Question: Are we now very close to hibernation season? Is this bear puffed up and the rest of them vociferously foraging because they are getting ready to take a long winter's nap?

Bhaktapur (Nepali: भक्तपुर Bhaktapur ), also Bhadgaon or Khwopa (Nepal Bhasa: ख्वप Khwopa), is an ancient Newar town in the east corner of the Kathmandu Valley, Nepal. It is located in Bhaktapur District in the Bagmati Zone. It is the third largest city in Kathmandu valley and was once the capital of Nepal during the great Malla Kingdom until the second half of the 15th century. Bhaktapur is famous for special type of curd called "Ju Ju dhau".It is experienced by the curd makers that the taste of curd prepared in this location cannot be found elsewhere all over Nepal.
Bhaktapur is listed as a World Heritage Site by UNESCO for its rich culture, temples, and wood, metal and stone artwork.
Khwopring is the ancient name of Bhaktapur. The term "Bhaktapur" (Sanskrit/Nepali: भक्तपुर) refers to "The City Of Devotees". This Bhaktapur City is also known as "Khwopa" (Nepal Bhasa: ख्वप) or "Bhadgaon" (Nepali:भादगाँउ) or "Ancient Newari Town" throughout the Kathmandu valley."khwapa" actually means the masks of gods and goddesses,and as bhaktapur is very popular for mask dances of various gods and goddesses,it was named after "khwapa" which later lead to the birth of name "khwopa".
It is the home of traditional art and architecture, historical monuments and craft works, magnificent windows, pottery and weaving industries, excellent temples, beautiful ponds, rich local customs, culture, religion, festivals, musical mystic and so on. Bhaktapur is still an untouched as well as preserved ancient city that is itself a world to explore for tourists.
From time immemorial it lay on the trade route between Tibet and India. This position on the main caravan route made the town rich and prosperous.
At the time of the 2001 Nepal census it had a population of 72,543.[1] The male inhabitants of this city wear a special type of cap called the Bhadgaunle Topi.
Layaku (Durbar Square)[edit]
Bhaktapur Durbar Square is a conglomeration of pagoda and shikhara-style temples grouped around a 55-window palace of brick and wood. The square is one of the most charming architectural showpieces of the valley as it highlights the ancient arts of Nepal. The golden effigies of the kings perched on the top of stone monoliths, the guardian deities looking out from their sanctuaries, the wood carvings in every place — struts, lintels, uprights, tympanums, gateways and windows — all seem to form a well-orchestrated symphony.[2] The main items of interest in the Durbar Square are:
- The Lion Gate: Dating as far back as 1696 A.D., this gate is guarded on either side by two huge statues of lions. Alongside there are two stone images of Bhairab (the dreadful aspect of Shiva) and ugrachandi (the consort of Shiva in her fearful manifestation).[2]
- Lu Dhowka (The Golden Gate) is said to be the most beautiful and richly moulded specimen of its kind in the entire world. The door is surmounted by a figure of the goddess Kali and Garuda (mythical griffin) and attended by two heavenly nymphs. It is embellished with monsters and other mythical creatures of marvellous intricacy. In the words of Percy Brown, an eminent English art critic and historian, the Golden Gate is "the most lovely piece of art in the whole Kingdom; it is placed like a jewel, flashing innumerable facets in the handsome setting of its surroundings." The gate was erected by King Ranjit Malla and is the entrance to the main courtyard of the palace of fifty-five windows.[2]
- The Palace of Fifty-five Windows was built during the reign of King Yaksha Malla in 1427 A.D. and was remodeled by King Bhupatindra Malla in the seventeenth century. Among the brick walls, with their gracious setting and sculptural design, is a balcony of fifty-five windows, considered to be a unique masterpiece of woodcarving.[2]
- The Picture Gallery is of considerable value which contains ancient paintings belonging to the Hindu and Buddhist Tantrism of various periods and descriptions. This gallery is closed Tuesday.[2]
- The Statue of King Bhupatindra Malla in the act of worship can be seen on a column facing the palace. Of the square's many statues, this is considered to be the most magnificent.[2]
- Batsala Temple: The stone temple of Batsala Devi depicts many intricate carvings; however, it is most famous for its bronze bell, known to local residents as "the bell-of barking dogs," as when it is rung, dogs in the vicinity begin barking and howling. The colossal bell was hung by King Ranjit Malla in 1737 A.D. and was used to sound the daily curfew. It is nowadays rung every morning when goddess Taleju is worshiped.[2]
- The Pashupati Temple is a replica of the famous temple by the Bagmati river in Kathmandu and is widely noted for the erotic carvings on its struts. 11 was built by King Yakshya Malla.[2]
The royal palace was originally situated at Dattaraya square and was only later moved to the Durbar square location. The square in Bhaktapur was severely damaged by an earthquake in 1934 and hence appears more spacious than the ones at Kathmandu and Patan.
Nyatapola Temple[edit]
This five-storeyed pagoda was built by King Bhupatindra Malla in 1702 A.D. It stands on five terraces, on each of which squat a pair of figures: two famous wrestlers, two elephants, two lions, two griffins, and Baghini and Singhini — the tiger and the lion goddesses. Each pair of figures is considered ten times stronger than the ones immediately below, while the lowest pair, the two strong men Jaya Malla and Phatta Malla, were reputedly ten times stronger than any other men. This is one of the tallest pagoda-style temples in Kathmandu Valley and is famous for its massive structure and subtle workmanship.[2]
Bhairab Nath Temple[edit]
This is another pagoda temple of lord Bhairab, the dreadful aspect of Shiva. It stands a short distance away from the temple of Nyatapola and was originally constructed by King Jagat Jyoti Malla on a modest scale. It was later remodelled by King Bhupatindra Malla, a zealous lover of the arts, into what it is now a three-storeyed temple.[2]
Dattatraya Temple[edit]
The temple of Dattatraya is as old as the Palace of Fifty-five Windows. Consecrated by King Yakshya Malla in 1427 A.D., this temple, according to popular belief, was built out of the trunk of a single tree. It was subsequently repaired and renovated by King Vishwa Malla in 1458 A.D.[2]
Just beside temple is a monastery (Math) with exquisitely carved peacock windows. These famous windows were carved during the reign of King Vishwa Malla. The monastery is full of artistic facades of latticed windows and engraved columns.[2] holi
Changu Narayan[edit]
Changu Narayan is an ancient Hindu temple located near the village of Changunarayan in the Kathmandu Valley on top of a hill at the eastern end of the valley. It is 6 kilometres (3.7 mi) to the north of Bhakathapur and 22 kilometres (14 mi) from Kathmandu. The temple is one of the oldest Hindu temples of the valley, and is believed to have been constructed first in the 4th century. Changu Narayan is the name of Vishnu, and the temple is dedicated to him. A stone slab discovered in the vicinity of the temple dates to the 5th century, and is the oldest such stone inscription discovered in Nepal. It was rebuilt after the old temple was devastated. Many stone sculptures here date to the Licchavi period. Changu Narayan Temple is listed by UNESCO as a World Heritage Site.[3][4]
The temple is a double-roofed structure where the idol of Lord Vishnu in his incarnation as Narayana is deified. The exquisitely built temple has intricate roof struts showing multi-armed Tantric deities. A kneeling image of Garuda (dated to the 5th century), the vahana or vehicle of Vishnu with a snake around its neck, faces the temple. The gilded door depicts stone lions guarding the temple. Gilded windows also flank the door. A conch and a disc, symbols of Vishnu, are carved on the two pillars at the entrance. Non-Hindus are not allowed inside the temple.[4]
Ta Pukhu (Siddha Pokhari)[edit]
Ta Pukhu (Siddha Pokhari) is a big rectangular water pond near the main city gate. It was built during the reign of King Yakshya Malla in the early fifteenth century and is associated with a number of myths. From this spot a wide range of snowy peaks are visible on clear days.[2]
Kailashnath Mahadev Statue[edit]
Kailashnath Mahadev is the World's Tallest Lord Shiva statue. The height of this statue is 143 feet high and is situated 20 km from Kathmandu, Nepal.The statues construction work was started in 2004 and was completed in 2012.The statue's inauguration took place on the 21st of June'12. This statue has attracted tourism into Nepal due to it being the tallest and as Lord Shiva is recognized as the lord of the gods in Hindu religion, there are many followers. Mr.Kamal Jain is the man behind this statue and behind the vision of this statue in Nepal. He is the person who had a dream to see the tallest lord shiva statue in Nepal and therefore he worked hard and pulled all the resources to make this happen. It was commissioned by Mr.Kamal Jain, and he has continued to develop and maintain the site without any support of the government of Nepal. This statue stands on the 32nd position in the list of all statues by height in the whole world. It has been made of copper, cement, zinc, and steel. To make this gigantic structure possible there were many professional workers and statue makers from India.
Bhaktapur is also known as city of festivals and celebrations. The city celebrates festivals each month starting from new year to the Holi puni at the end of the year.
- Bisket jatra (New year festival)

I am trying to insert Geo-referenced TIF files into Map 2013 but the associated World files are not being found/recognised even though they are in the same directory as the image. I have tried both TAB and TFW using MAPIINSERTand Data Connect.
Going back to Map 2012, which we still have in the office, the World files are found and correlated correctly with both of the above World file types and Map commands.
I can do what I need to do in 2012 for the moment but has anyone else had this problem?
Solved! Go to Solution.
Try to embed the .TFW file in the header of your .TIF, by means of the free GeoTiffExaminer tool, sir.
Thanks for the tip, it's a nice tool and has provided a work round for the problem I'm having although I'd still like to know why Map was not finding the world files.

Feel free to paste here the content of that Worldfile, thanx.
As noted in my first post these are both found and used by Map 2012 to locate the raster file correctly but not by Map 2013 - hopefully thwe layout of the contents isn't lost in the formatting of the post
Contents of TFW file are
And contents of TAB file are

Are you REALLY sure that .TFW file name is ST33SE like its own TIFF ?
If so, erase or move the original .TFW anywhere, then with GeoTiffExaminer recreate it from the Geotiff already existing, and try again in Map2013.
The same thing happened to mee too...
Georeferended .tif image in the right position with civil 3d 2012. .tfw file not recognized in civil 3d 2013....
I am having the same problem with Civil3D 2013.
If i change the coordinate system of my drawing to no projection no datum, it will come in just fine. However if i do not it will come in the wrong place.
I have an geotiff that is in Alaska Stateplane zone 7 (NAD83) and my current drawing is a custom coordinate system with defined values in Autocadd.
I normally in the past would just edit the world file to make the geotiff come in my drawing in the correct place. However when I do this it will not work, put it in wrong place. I notice on the insertion that the correlation data is different than my world file.
If i change my coordinate system to no datum no projection it will come in to the correct place and the correlation data on the import is same as my world file.
So looks like to me that it is trying to convert on the import.
So what should i do, is there a setting I need to change in Civil 3d / Map?
Anthony Robinson
I opened my image in a photo viewer then saved as a regular tiff and now Civil3d 2013 will now read the world file and bring it in correct location.
So seems to me that Civil3d 2013 is trying to read my image info instead of world file info? Which is not the order it is supposed to. What do you guys think?

As a business grows, its owners might face the question of whether to sell and/or manufacture its products abroad. Burgeoning foreign markets, such as those of China and India, are difficult to resist as venues for new business development. In addition to the vast number of potential new consumers residing there, production and distribution in these markets can substantially lower expenses and increase product volume.
However, many of these emerging markets lack the sophisticated legal structure to protect and enforce intellectual property rights in the form of patents, trademarks and copyrights. To compete for business abroad, it is vital to have a good understanding of intellectual property risks and prepare a business plan to minimize those risks. Apparel, footwear, home furnishings, music and entertainment (via counterfeit CDs and DVDs) are just a few of the industries faced with counterfeits and blatant infringements on a daily basis.
If you are considering going global, there are several steps you should take before launching your product into international markets. Apply for both trademarks (an indicator of the source of the product) and patents (which protect a unique product, manufacturing method, or chemical composition, no matter what brand or trademark is used).
Apply Early
The first critical step to protecting your intellectual property in the US and abroad is to file applications for the trademarks and patents of the company. Without filing, you will have no remedies against counterfeiting or infringement. It's crucial to file the patent application before the invention has been made public anywhere in the world.
The first step in protecting your company's patentable products, manufacturing methods, and chemical compositions across the globe is to file a US application. A US-based company can opt for either a provisional application or a traditional utility application; the other option, if it is the design or look of the product which is unique, is to file a design patent application (designs cannot be protected through a provisional filing). A provisional application is a placeholder. Although it is filed in the Patent Office and receives a filing date and serial number, the provisional application is never examined. The provisional patent application provides you with the opportunity to say "Patent Pending" anywhere in the world during the one-year term of the provisional filing. The one-year term gives the company the opportunity to see if the product, method or composition has commercial potential in a foreign market before embarking on the formal, much more expensive patent application process. However, the provisional application must be followed within the year by a traditional utility patent application filed both in the US and abroad to preserve the company's nascent patent rights.
If a US patent has already been issued, and foreign filings were not made, then the company cannot acquire foreign patents. The timing is entirely based upon the filing of the US application. If the company is interested in foreign protection, within the year it must file either an international application through the Patent Cooperation Treaty ("PCT") or applications in the individual nations in which the product may be manufactured or sold or in which infringement is likely.
After the PCT application is filed, the company has up to 30 months (from the earliest filing date) to decide which nations should be elected for prosecution.
Secure Your Brand
Trademarks can be filed on an intent-to-use basis anywhere in the world, so as soon as a company has decided upon a brand name, and that name has been cleared, file the application. Clearance involves hiring an intellectual property attorney to review the records of the trademark offices of each of the nations in which you intend to manufacture or sell the product or offer your company's services. If the trademark search reveals that another company already owns a pending application or registration for the proposed brand name, then the company can choose another one before making a significant investment in an advertising campaign and product labeling.
If and when the brand name is cleared, file an application right away. If a third party has filed an application anywhere outside the US for your company's US brand, unless your company's brand is famous, it will be very difficult to challenge the issuance of the registration to the third party.
A Trademark May Not Be Not Enough
Once your trademark applications are on file, the company can also investigate recording the trademark with the foreign country's customs authorities. You do not necessarily have to file individual applications in each foreign nation. A European Community registration is available, covering each of the 27 countries of the European Common Market. Additionally, the US is a member of an international treaty called the Madrid Protocol, which permits you to receive an international registration valid in many nations, including Australia, China, Korea, Japan and Russia. Trademark protection is not automatic, however, and you must designate the countries in which you want protection.
