Michael Moore laid out the scenario on the opening day of the trial of Shirley Schwab, 63, and Brandon Taliaferro, 31, who face witness-tampering and perjury-related charges.
Moore, the Beadle County state's attorney, is handling the case because of conflicts of interest at the Brown County State's Attorney's Office. Schwab is a former court-appointed children's advocate. Taliaferro is a former Brown County deputy state's attorney.
Moore told jurors during his opening statements that Schwab and Taliaferro decided on their own that Wendy Mette of Aberdeen should be criminally charged in connection with the abuse of her adopted children, even though no formal investigation into her actions had been begun.
Schwab and Taliaferro worked with an Aberdeen therapist to present false information at a Brown County grand jury hearing in March 2010, Moore said. That information led to charges against Mette.
Allegedly, Taliaferro sent an email to the therapist just before the grand jury hearing, asking her to procure specific information from the minor victim, including that Mette:
- Walked into the room while Richard Mette, her then-husband, was forcing the girl to perform oral sex on him.
- Walked into the room while Richard Mette was raping the girl.
- Gave the girl a "vitamin" that was ultimately found to be a birth control pill.
With the help of Taliaferro's email, the therapist procured the details, then shared them with the grand jury, Moore said. There were no allegations that Wendy Mette knew about the sexual abuse before the victim interview that proceeded the grand jury hearing, Moore said.
Attorneys for Schwab and Taliaferro, though, denied the claims. There had been a history of concerns previously raised about the Mettes, they said. And a large volume of incestuous pornography was found in the Mette home, they said. The only way Wendy Mette didn't know about her then-husband's actions was if she was blind, said Stephanie Amiotte, the Sioux Falls attorney representing Schwab.
Richard Mette ultimately pleaded guilty to one count of rape and was sentenced to 15 years in prison. He had once faced nearly two dozen charges, the most serious of which were rape and aggravated incest.
Wendy Mette faced 11 abuse-related counts that were never as serious as those filed against her former husband and did not include rape nor incest. Moore said when the charges were dismissed that the actions of Schwab and Taliaferro could have clouded evidence in the case for the jury.
The therapist was once charged with Schwab and Taliaferro, but has since been cleared because authorities do not believe she knowingly shared false information with the grand jury.
Lori Ehlers, former Brown County chief deputy state's attorney who recently started working as a deputy state's attorney in Minnehaha County, said her first involvement in the Mette cases was in March 2011, just before Wendy Mette was charged. She said she was helping Taliaferro with the indictment against Wendy Mette and told him there was no evidence that Wendy Mette knew the girl was being abused. Shortly thereafter, perhaps the next day, Ehlers said, Taliaferro suddenly had information about Wendy Mette being in the room at the time the girl was abused. Ehlers said she found that hard to believe.
But Mike Butler, a Sioux Falls attorney representing Taliaferro, said a brother of the victim disclosed possible sexual abuse against his sisters in fall 2010. And, he said, the girls told authorities that Wendy Mette knew that Richard Mette inappropriately touched them.
It doesn't make sense that the Aberdeen therapist was swayed by Schwab and Taliaferro to knowingly lie to the grand jury, thereby ruining her career, Butler said.
Both Schwab and Taliaferro face three counts of subornation of perjury. That's procuring somebody to commit perjury. Schwab faces two counts, and Taliaferro faces one count, of witness tampering. All those charges are felonies. They both also face a misdemeanor count of unauthorized disclosure of child abuse and neglect information. Schwab is charged with misdemeanor false reporting, and Taliaferro is charged with misdemeanor obstruction of law enforcers.
On Monday morning, 14 jurors were selected, 10 women and four men. Two of the jurors are alternates, meaning they will be dismissed before verdict proceedings. Between 25 and 30 people watched the first part of the trial Monday afternoon, including representatives of the Lakota People's Law Project. The group has taken an interest in the case because it has ties to the Indian Child Welfare Act, a federal law designed to have American Indian foster children placed with American Indian families.

The global economy facilitates the fluid movement of products and services around the globe, a trend that has continued virtually uninterrupted since the end of World War II. It is unlikely that the architects of this system could have envisioned what it would become when they met in the
In the Beginning
The delegates from the 45 allied powers who attended the Bretton Woods conference in 1944 were determined to ensure that the second half of the 20th century would look nothing like the first half, which consisted mostly of devastating wars and a worldwide economic depression. The World Bank and the International Monetary Fund would ensure global economic stability. (For more insight, check out What Is The International Monetary Fund? and What Is The World Bank?)
In order to facilitate a fair and orderly market for cross-border trade, the conference produced the Bretton Woods exchange rate system. This was a gold exchange system that was part gold standard and part reserve currency system. It established the U.S. dollar as a de facto global reserve currency. Foreign central banks could exchange dollars for gold at the fixed rate of $35 per ounce. At the time, the
All Together Now
For a time, this seemed like a win-win opportunity. Countries like
In textbook economic theory, market forces of supply and demand act as a natural correction for trade deficits and surpluses. In the real world of the Bretton Woods system, however, natural market forces ran into the non-market exchange rate mechanism. One would expect the value of a currency to appreciate as demand for goods denominated in those currencies increased; however, the exchange rate system required the foreign central banks to intervene in order to keep their currencies from exceeding the Bretton Woods target levels. They did this through foreign exchange (forex) market purchases of dollars and sales of British pounds, German marks and Japanese yen. This kept the prices of exports from these countries lower than what market forces would predict, making them still more attractive for
A system like Bretton Woods relies on the willingness of the participants to actively support it. For the countries that had accumulated large holdings of U.S. dollar reserves, however, that willingness decreased as the dollar's implied market value eroded. If you are holding a large quantity of an asset and think the value of that asset is going to decline, you are not likely to go right back out and buy more of the asset - but that is precisely what the system mandated they do.
The system finally collapsed in August 1971, when U.S. President Nixon announced that foreign central banks would no longer be able to exchange dollars for gold at the fixed $35 per ounce level. Within two years, the fixed-rate system had been phased out entirely and the currencies of Europe and
However, fixed-rate systems never died out completely. The bureaucrats of Japan's Ministry of Finance and the Bank of Japan saw a weak yen as a critical element of the country's export-oriented economic policy. In the early 1980s, Deng Xiaoping, then leader of the Communist Party of China, exhorted his countrymen that "to get rich is glorious" and

Transporter material handling magnets line expands
IMI expands material handling magnet line, offering an electric-free means of movement
IMI has recently expanded their patented line of magnetic, Cylinder Actuated Transporters (TPCA) for use in place of vacuum cups or grippers when lifting and moving stamped, forged and hydro-formed parts, tubes, castings or complete parts assemblies in manual or automated applications.
Magnetic Transporters are reportedly designed to increase production, provide material handling safety and minimize shop air cost, while allowing effective operation in any orientation and the ability to grasp odd shaped or formed parts.
With the additional models, IMI can now provide a magnetic material handling solution for applications ranging from 26 ga. to 3/4" thick steel, with weights from 5 lbs. to 689 lbs., depending on the size and shape of the part.
Offering a slim profile, instantaneous pickup and release, and requiring no electricity, the Transporter Cylinder Actuated Magnets are ideal for lifting in and out of totes, bins, or other hard to maneuver applications such as, components for automotive, lawn/farm equipment, pumps, compressors or motors and fan assemblies.

Jefferson Starship
Jefferson Starship is an American rock band formed in the early 1970s by several members of the former psychedelic rock group Jefferson Airplane. The band has undergone several major changes in personnel and genres through the years while retaining the same Jefferson Starship name. The current Jefferson Starship, led by co-founder Paul Kantner, more closely resembles its original mix of psychedelic and electric folk music than the pop-driven tunes it was widely known for in the early to mid-1980s. It is not to be confused with Starship, a spin-off of the group featuring former co-lead singer Mickey Thomas that also periodically tours. The latter group is most frequently identified with the 1980s pop tunes of the Jefferson Starship.

A television writer is a skilled writer responsible for the developing, writing, and revision of scripts so that they are ready for the silver screen. They are responsible for creating all plot lines, characters, dialogue and situations. Episodic television writers also work as producers to oversee the budget and overall quality of production of a series. Television writers usually work as part of a group of writers to ensure that scripts are written well and meet strict deadlines.
Sokanu matches you to one of over 500 careers by analyzing your personality, interests, and needs in life. Take the free assessment now to see your top career recommendations!
Television writers are responsible for the production of a television series from the beginning processes of writing a script to the launch of a pilot episode. They prepare scripts for a wide range of television programs including soap operas, comedies, dramas and documentaries. A pilot episode may be "picked up" by a network for a contracted television series. Some writers also create ads for local sponsors, previews for upcoming shows and station announcements.
A major change has taken place in television production in recent years. No longer are studios spending millions of dollars on long-term development deals with writers in hopes that they will provide them with a hit show for the studio. More recently, studios engage writers to create or contribute pilot scripts to be considered for development. A pilot script, also known as a pilot episode or series premiere, is the first episode in a television series. Pilot episodes are created as a test run to determine if a television series will be well received on air. The studio is granted a number of options to involve the writer in the processes of writing and producing a script. The benefit to this is if the studio is not happy with a script, it can cut its losses early, while only having to pay the initial script fee. These deals, referred to as "one of's", are the dominant form of television series writing deals.
When a script is picked up for a pilot episode, the writer is involved in many aspects. He will be the one to hire the director of a given episode, work with a line producer to hire a crew, and supervise casting and post-production efforts. The head writer is also referred to as the "showrunner".
As with any career in the writing world, the way to gain experience and build a portfolio is to write. A television writer builds something like a portfolio called a "spec script". A spec script is a sample of writing that showcases a writer's knowledge of the craft and lets others know that he has an understanding of the format of television writing. It could be an original television pilot or a script for an existing show. A good spec will illuminate a writer's skills.
Once their foot is in the door, a television writer is under the gun to write shows that meet strict deadlines. When a writer is creating a spec script he can use as much or as little time as he/she needs. Working in television means a writer has to meet very short deadlines that may change day to day.
Television uses a lot of material. An hour long drama needs a new script every five to seven days. A typical TV deadline takes a week to go from an approved outline to a good first draft. A good writer should be able to accomplish it in four days, which leaves one day to fix mistakes. No one expects perfect work, but they do expect constructive work that can be built on. With such a demanding schedule, a writer is NOT allowed to have writer's block. It's just not an option. A schedule must be stuck to and a writer must be able to power through a script and make it happen.
The most negative thing a writer can do for a network is to deliver a show late. A network has a slot in their schedule for a show. If a show is late then the network will have to find something else to fill that slot with and that means money is lost and people lose their jobs.
Something else writers have to take into account is the internal structure of television. Because commercial breaks are the bread and butter of television, the story needs to be structured with cliffhangers to take place at the end of an act, so that the audience will want to return to the show once the commercials end. A studio's goal is to keep the viewer tuned into the show, and to make them want to return for the next week's episode. It's vital that writers structure episodes in this way to keep the audience interested.
Writing a spec script can take up as much time of a writer's schedule as he/she needs as it only matters when the script is complete. When a writer is working with a network, he/she is on a strict schedule. Writers are usually part of a writing team to ensure that the writing can be completed well and on time. The writing team may consist of anywhere between four to twenty (or more) writers. This all depends on the budget, show, and the preference of the showrunner. This may mean a room full of people sketching ideas and writing scripts, surrounded by pots of coffee to keep up their energy. What matters most in a writing team is that the work is done efficiently and well so that a show can air on time.
Under the Writer's Guild Agreement (which governs most television projects), the price for rendering a half hour script is $30,000 while an hour-long script is $43,000. For this price the studio will be entitled to a story, first draft and final draft of the script. In some cases, the studio will bargain for a story, first draft, two sets of revisions and a polish. Usually, the writer/creator will receive a higher pilot writing fee than mandated by the WGA. It may range from $50,000 (for a relatively inexperienced writer) to $250,000 for an experienced and established writer. This money only applies to the "one-of" deal.
In many cases, when a pilot is picked up and ordered to production, the studio will guarantee the writer employment as an "executive producer" of the pilot episode at a negotiated fee. The WGA does not govern these producing fees. A writer's experience and social influence are taken into account during negotiations. These fees for producing such services can range between $15,000 - $100,000. Here is a great link with specific fees based on WGA 2008 Schedule of Minimums. http://www.wga.org/subpage_writersresources.aspx?id=68

why , why , why ....are we getting more stupid ? the banners all ready a small !
It's not too bad, I'm actually digging it due to the fact that it takes less bar space but only down fall is it don't show much but it's good for me. I like this tweak and currently using it.
Not small enough. Stock notifications are alright, but I believe they can be improved upon so the notification isn't so thick to take up as much space as it does. I believe the banner should be as thin as the status bar along with some sort of icon, but that's just me.
It would be useful if it was like GRIP that worked on IOS4 (Growl-like notifications).
These, like GRIP, need to be expandable notifications to be useful. 1-2 words isnt useful. If you clicked it once and it expanded to read the full text, and double clicked to open the corresponding app, then I'd install this.
The second part of your comment makes no sense...
I think this is already available in Springtomize 2 wherein you can reduce the size of the banner.
It doesn't seem to work with BiteSMS, and my other notifications aren't working with it as well.
It doesn't work with Bulletin and BiteSMS and iRealSMS
I checked myself, and actually BiteSMS is compatible.

The Great Jedi Purge (better known as Order 66 or Operation: Knightfall) is a fictional major event in the Star Wars space opera series created by George Lucas. It is officially documented as a plot element in the 2005 film Star Wars Episode III: Revenge of the Sith, and is further referenced in the Star Wars Expanded Universe. In the film, the Jedi are nearly exterminated by order of the Sith Lord Darth Sidious to the Clone Army, with only Obi-Wan Kenobi and Yoda among a handful of others surviving. The first person to be issued this order was Clone Commander Cody (who until then was under the command of Jedi General Kenobi).

Order 66:
The text of Order 66 (as given in Chapter Twenty of the novel Star Wars Republic Commando: True Colors) reads:
In the event of Jedi officers acting against the interests of the Republic, and after receiving specific orders verified as coming directly from the Supreme Commander (Chancellor), GAR Grand Army of the Republic commanders will remove those officers by lethal force, and command of the GAR will revert to the Supreme Commander (Chancellor) until a new command structure is established.
The Purge begins shortly before the end of the Clone Wars, which had been conceived as part of a scheme by Chancellor Palpatine to eliminate the Jedi and establish himself as the Emperor of the galaxy.
At some point between the noted events of Episodes II and III, members of the Jedi council began to suspect Chancellor Palpatine was tied to Sidious and Count Dooku's Separatist army. In Revenge of the Sith, Jedi Master Mace Windu openly states to the Jedi Council that he no longer trusts the Chancellor; Obi-Wan Kenobi expresses similar misgivings.
Anakin Skywalker, the "Chosen One" of Jedi prophecy, finds out that Palpatine is actually Darth Sidious, the Dark Lord of the Sith for whom the Jedi have been searching for more than a decade. Anakin reveals this information to Windu, who then leads a small team of fellow Jedi Masters--Agen Kolar, Saesee Tiin, and Kit Fisto--to apprehend Sidious. In the ensuing lightsaber duel, Sidious quickly and almost effortlessly kills Windu's companions; Kolar, being the first killed by Sidious is effectively the first victim of the Great Jedi Purge, followed, in one move, by Tiin, and then, after a few moments of combat, Fisto.
Windu engages Palpatine in a furious battle, finally disarming him. As Windu reasserts Palpatine's arrest, Anakin suddenly enters the room while Palpatine pleads for his own life. Palpatine had long been nurturing the young Jedi's desire for power and had recently roused Anakin's fear for the safety of his pregnant wife, Padmé Amidala. Before Windu can strike down the Chancellor after fending off a sneak attack by the Sith, Anakin severs Windu's hand with his lightsaber. Sidious then springs to life and blasts Windu with a torrent of Force lightning, which throws him out the window to his death.
Though Anakin expresses deep remorse for aiding in the death of Windu, Darth Sidious persuades Anakin to join him as his Sith apprentice. It was mentioned by George Lucas in the Revenge of the Sith DVD commentary that Anakin thought he was doing the right thing saving Palpatine's life when he cut off Windu's hand with his lightsaber. However, Anakin did not think that Palpatine would kill Windu, and as a result of both his role in Windu's death and his wish to save Padme, Anakin joined with Palpatine.
Palpatine gives Anakin the Sith name Darth Vader, and orders him to exterminate the Jedi. He sends his new apprentice to the Jedi Temple along with the 501st Clone Trooper Legion to kill all of the Jedi there. Palpatine says that if Vader carries out his commands, he will be strong enough in the dark side to save Padmé, and so Vader complies without a second thought, even exterminating the many children under the Temple's protection. While the newly turned Dark Lord is completing this task, Palpatine instructs the clone troopers to carry out Order 66. Among the most notable Jedi killed at the very beginning of the purge are Ki-Adi-Mundi, Aayla Secura, Plo Koon and Stass Allie.
Returning to Coruscant, Masters Yoda and Obi-Wan Kenobi enter the Temple long enough to re-encode a secret retreat signal being broadcast by the in-house communications ordering all Jedi to return to the Jedi Temple, instead warning all surviving Jedi about the treachery and to take precautions. During a special Senate session, Palpatine declares the Jedi traitors, reorganizes the Republic into the Galactic Empire, and declares himself Emperor of the Galaxy.
Yoda and Obi-Wan Kenobi survive the initial purge and are picked up by Senator Bail Organa of Alderaan aboard his diplomatic cruiser Tantive IV. Organa, after witnessing the young Jedi Zett Jukassa being killed by clone troopers, has secretly remained loyal to the Jedi. Kenobi and Yoda then attempt to kill the Sith Lords, with Yoda engaging Sidious in combat, and Obi-Wan fighting Vader. Yoda fights Sidious into a stalemate and is forced to flee at the last moment and escapes; whereas Kenobi defeats and mortally wounds his former apprentice, leaving him to die; however, Vader is rescued by the Emperor and fitted with the black life-support suit he wears for the remainder of his life. Realizing they are in no position to oppose the Empire for the time being, Kenobi and Yoda go into hiding. Additionally, they decide that Luke and Leia, the children of Anakin and Padmé (who had died giving birth to them), would need to be raised separately and in hiding to protect them from Sidious and Vader. Bail Organa volunteers to adopt Leia with his wife on Alderaan. By Yoda's decision, Luke would be raised by Anakin's stepbrother, Owen Lars, on Tatooine, while Kenobi watches over him from a distance. Yoda, for his part, chooses exile on an uninhabited planet in the Dagobah System, where strong dark side energies would mask his presence from the Emperor.
Expanded Universe:
The Expanded Universe indicates that other Jedi also survive the initial stages of the Purge, though few of these Jedi live to see the fall of the Empire. Some Jedi leaders had no clones in their squadron, affording an easy escape. In some instances, clone troopers that had developed individual self-identity played a key role in the Jedis' survival. Survivors include Quinlan Vos, General Rahm Kota, Kazdan Peratus, A'Sharad Hett, K'Kruhk, T'ra Saa, Tholme, Jax Pavan, Corwin Shelvay, Kai Hudorra, Dass Jennir, Na Noirrah, and Kai Justiss. Shaak Ti escaped with some three-thousand boys from the Temple, eventually exiling on Felucia while the boys were disseminated and hidden throughout the galaxy.
According to Timothy Zahn's The Hand of Thrawn Duology, Palpatine begins killing Jedi before the Great Jedi Purge occurs. Shortly after the Battle of Naboo (depicted in Star Wars Episode I: The Phantom Menace), the Jedi Council approved the "Outbound Flight Project." A group of Jedi masters would travel to the edge of the galaxy and attempt to use the Force to punch through the hyperspace turbulence surrounding the galaxy, thereby allowing them to attempt contact with life in other galaxies.
The ship is intercepted on Palpatine's command and all hope of contacting life outside the galaxy ended. It is noted that the Chiss, one of whom would become Imperial Grand Admiral Thrawn, were involved in the interception of this ship. Further details of the Outbound Flight Project were elaborated upon in Zahn's Survivor's Quest and Outbound Flight novels.
One of those Jedi Masters killed by Thrawn is Jorus C'Baoth. His clone, which serves the Empire, is subject to fits of insanity and eventually betrays Thrawn in the Heir to the Empire series.
In the Coruscant Nights series, Jedi Knight Jax Pavan survives the Purge and goes into hiding in the seedier districts of Coruscant, where he begins operating as a private investigator.
X-Wing Rogue Squadron pilot Corran Horn discovers a museum chronicling members of the Jedi Order whom Palpatine had killed, filled with destroyed statues of former Jedi on Coruscant.
In the strategy game Star Wars: Galactic Battlegrounds, after crash-landing on the planet of Krant, Princess Leia Organa and C-3PO, along with a small group of rebels, discover a Jedi who survived the purge, Echuu Shen-Jon. He helps them win many victories on Krant, then travels with them to the Geddes asteroids to reclaim a Jedi artifact. When they land there, they are helped by a small army of Wookiees. In this mission, Shen-Jon dies at Darth Vader's hand, sacrificing himself so Leia and the other Rebels could escape. It is revealed in the expansion that he exiled himself to Krant after briefly succumbing to the Dark Side and killing Sev'rance Tann (a CIS general who had killed his padawan), at the cost of the lives of many clone troopers and Wookiees.
In the New Jedi Order series, Vergere is revealed as a Jedi Knight from before the Empire. She was sent on a mission to investigate the living planet Zonama Sekot, where she encounters the Yuuzhan Vong. Considering them to be a threat, Vergere convinces them to take her as an advisor and jester of sorts to their Warmaster, Tsavong Lah. The Great Jedi Purge takes place after she leaves with the Yuuzhan Vong. Her connections to the Old Jedi Order prove important in the training of Jacen Solo and allow her to provide Luke Skywalker with a small view of the old order. Before she can finish completely instructing them, she dies protecting Jacen from Tsavong Lah's forces.
In the Dark Times series by Mick Harrison, it is revealed that a never-before mentioned member of the Jedi Order, Dass Jennir, also survived and took refuge on the planets of the Nosaurians and helped them fight off Storm Troopers before helping his Nosaurian friend Bomo Greenbark find his kidnapped wife and child. Once in Dark Times, Jennir mentioned something about his escaping alive because his clone troopers did not receive Order 66.
In the video game Star Wars Battlefront II, some Jedi survive the purge and were sheltered on Naboo by the current Queen. The 501st Clone Trooper Legion then invaded the planet, killed the current Queen and 'adjusted' the government of the planet. All of the Jedi were killed in the invasion.
In the 2008 video game The Force Unleashed, it is revealed that several Jedi, including Jedi Master Shaak Ti, had survived the initial purge, only to be later killed by Vader's apprentice Galen Marek. However, in a deleted scene from Revenge Of The Sith, Shaak Ti was killed by General Grievous and another deleted scene that depicts her slain by Lord Vader in the temple. These scenes are, however, not canon as it depicts Anakin's first face to face meeting with General Grevious, which in the film happens later on the bridge of the CIS ship. The exact number of Jedi who ultimately survive both the Great Purge and Vader is not known.
In the Dark Empire II comic book, a pre-Order 66 Jedi, Kam Solusar, is depicted.

Dark Woman,

Item # IBS0006
2013 This model is no longer in stock.
Don't worry though, we have a lot more XC Bikes - Full Suspension in stock than that.
Ibis Mojo SL Special Blend Complete Bike $0.00
When searching for a sub $3K mountain bike, you're hard-pressed to find a carbon option. If you do, it's usually either some mystery off-brand, or the parts leave a bit to be desired. The last thing you'd expect to find is a highly refined Ibis residing in this category. Hell, the Mojo SL frame alone runs north of $2K. However, this Mojo SL Complete Bike with the Special Blend package sits comfortably below that magical price point. And, it does so with components from Shimano and Mavic, mixed with tuned suspension from the experts at X Fusion to create what might be the best grin-to-dollar ratio bike we've ever offered.
Trailside banter often includes discussion on which suspension brand is the smoothest, offers the most adjustments, and holds it line the best. While X Fusion may not be the first brand that gets tossed around during these pow-wows, it's well on the way to becoming a mountain bike staple. X Fusion has been supplying mountain bike forks and shocks worldwide for twenty years under other brands; In '99 it broke out on its own, launching with help from well-respected industry players.
After gaining positive market share with its premium OEM applications and establishing a global support network, X Fusion is expanding its line and has opened a state-of-the-art research and design facility in the US. This facility, located in Santa Cruz, California, allows them to not only tweak, test, and service products, it allows them to immediately try new concepts and ideas on local trails. Coincidentally, Ibis Cycles is located a leisurely 30 minute bicycle ride from this high-tech suspension R&D facility.
Working closely with each other (i.e. rubbing elbows on trails nearly every day) X Fusion and Ibis have seamlessly combined their products to reflect a undeniable passion for high-performance mountain biking. The 140mm-travel Velvet RLX fork with 15mm thru-axle and the O2 RCX rear shock spec'd in this Special Blend package feature fully adjustable, CNC-machined damping cartridges with aluminum knobs (you'll find a welcome lack of brittle plastic throughout the X Fusion suspension line). Both of these air-sprung pieces offer a lockout for enhanced fire-road climbing, and come with rebound and preload adjustments for fine tuning. With X Fusion's recent signing of the Mojo Master, Flyin' Brian Lopes, and highly decorated Anne-Caroline Chausson, we're looking forward to seeing more 'blends' from Ibis and X Fusion in the future.
If you're not familiar with the Mojo SL, it's the evolution of Ibis' return to mountain biking -- the lauded Mojo. When this model was released, it offered an unheard of balance of weight, strength, and performance. Sporting 140mm of DW-link suspension (the first time this system was used on a carbon chassis), the Mojo changed preconceived notions of what's possible in the mountain bike market. Fast-forward to the present-day version, the Mojo SL. Using a unique-to-the SL high-modulus carbon weave and Ibis' void-eliminating compression molding, Ibis was able to replace what were once alloy bits with carbon and Ti. These advancements left the SL tipping the scales at a feathery 5.3lbs with shock, while providing even more strength and stiffness than before.
Aside from the instantly recognizable organic shape, and industry-leading use of carbon fiber, what really makes the Mojo design shine is its DW-link suspension. Two links tie the front and rear triangle together, and their placement offers a finely tuned ride. Instead of squatting under power, the links counter chain torque to propel the rider forward while remaining active over both large and small trail imperfections. What you get is incredibly efficient power transfer and excellent traction when climbing, in a longer 5.5in travel package. From XC race to aggressive all-mountain, the Mojo's ready.
The Ibis Mojo SL Special Blend Complete Bike rolls on Mavic's straight-pull, bladed-spoke-equipped CrossRide wheelset with 2.1in Kenda Nevegal tires. Powerful Avid Elixir 1 hydraulic disc brakes with an oversized 185mm front rotor keep your speed in check. You'd be hard pressed to find a component group that can match the performance, price point, and reliability of Shimano's SLX parts, which makes it a perfect match to this build's purpose. For that reason, the cranks, shifters, and derailleurs are all SLX, and in a classic 3X10 format. An Ibis alloy stem, handlebar, and seat post, along with a WTB Rocket V throne comprise the cockpit. The Mojo SL proudly shows off its matte carbon finish, and is available in Small, Medium, Large, and X-Large.

Jim Therrien

You could probably get away with a medium, since you have a 30" inseam. But since you're only 5'3", you might feel a little stretched over the top tube. But there are ways to remedy that (a shorter stem to start). I would try to find an Ibis dealer, and actually sit on/ride the bike in a small and medium first.

Rated 3.6 out of 5 by 15
Rated 5 out of 5 by sodapop2424 great product
We have 5 people on our lease that use this product including myself. We had huge coon problems before but since we installed this product problem solved.
I would like to state I looked at the photos of the other reviewers. both reviewers installed the product incorrectly.
the first set of photos please note that there is some type of gap beween the product. Im not sure if its a pulley system but you have to use the full strip with no obstructions.. if you don't coons will have a place to grab.
The 2nd group of pics clearly shows were the shark teeth was cut in half.. again not using the product as it was designed.
If you correct these issues the product will work as expected.
With that said.. have I ever had coons make it past the shark teeth... Yes... but it is rare.. they usually give up after they cut their feet a few times. The product works GREAT... if installed properly.
Lastly.. I have used this product for about 4 years now along with the others on our lease.. it is one of the best deterrents on the market
December 7, 2013
Rated 4 out of 5 by QCKen It is a deterrent......
Before I Installed this product last weekend, The coon residency was 11. They would camp out under my feeder taking turns running up the pole and getting so full of corn when they left their bellies were dragging the ground. I do not mind telling you seeing the blood running down the pole gave me some satisfaction! After looking at my pictures for two days the coon population has gotten down to 2. My feeder is tall so I am thinking about getting another set to add. I will wait a couple of weeks and check the camera before making a decision.

Rated 1 out of 5 by laserdoc not good
As you can see by the picture the coons laugh at this product. Don't waste your money!!!!!
You would be better to sit and wait at the feeder and hunt coons at night with a gun!!!

Why eating at the wrong times is tied to such profound and negative effects on our bodies
Many of the body's tissues can tell time, and these peripheral clocks can be influenced by environmental cues, such as the timing of food consumption.
Evolutionary biologist Andreas Wagner argues that many evolutionary innovations may have non-adaptive origins.
Researchers find that reducing mitochondrial protein production in some animals can increase lifespan by activating a protective stress response.
A small protein produced by fat cells appears to regulate blood sugar levels, potentially revealing a new way to treat diabetes.
Flies turning blue help researchers link the deterioration of the intestinal barrier to age-related death.
Drosophila insulin-like peptides (dILPs) regulate part of the signaling pathway that helps keep organs growing in proportion during development.
During development, communication between organs determines their relative final size.
The eating schedule—and not the amount of calories—can make the difference between an obese, diabetic, sick mouse and one with a healthy metabolism.

Teacher quality
Principal leadership
Parent involvement
For the area, this is definitely the best school. We came from another state with a much better school. My daughters were both in accelerated classes but the schools here (Lummis & Becker) refused to test them, look at their previous scores, or put them in accelerated classes. As a result, my daughters have not been challenged to the extent they should/could be. Still, if one is going to live in Vegas, this is undoubtedly the best place to be. And the teachers, staff, parents, & kids are wonderful.
We love Lummis elementary school. I have 2 children attending Lummis who are very different in their talents and abilities. each one is challenged by their teachers and given the proper attention to maximize their learning. The gate program has been very good and the battle of the books is a fantastic program to encourage literacy. Lummis has been a wonderful school and We are very happy with the school, teachers and administration.
As a teacher and parent, I highly recommend this school and community to anyone looking to move to Las Vegas or within Las Vegas. The staff is amazing and the school community as a whole is so inviting. If you are looking for a school for your kids to feel safe, happy and receive an outstanding education, Lummis fits all the criteria.
I really don't know what the author of the June entry is talking about. My daughter so far has had an amazing K-3 experience at this school. Her kinder teacher hatched chicks, every year her class put on a play, teachers individualize instruction to meet the needs of each child, and school is fun! Her teachers were experienced, kind, and truly outstanding. Students are not allowed to push into the lunchroom, and it is important to note that it is a district-wide policy to play first / eat second. Students do need to eat rather quickly to finish on time, but that's everywhere. Pit bulls?!? Dogs are not allowed on any school campus in this district. The only comment I'd agree with is the one about the old copiers, which is really due to insufficient education funding, not the school itself. Despite budget cuts and increases in class size over the last few years, this school continues to be excellent thanks to the awesome PTA and amazing staff.
New to Las Vegas and read this was one of the best schools. It was the WORST experience for my family. The kids are mean, parents look like gangsters (comparing tatoos, bringing their pit bulls on campus) etc. I volunteered to help in my daughters class. Teacher was so disorganized. Only 1 copy machine out of 5 worked. My kids would come home starved because they would either not get enough time to eat or hot lunch ran out. My child was injured during a "push war" to get to the lunch room. This school has the most unfriendly front office staff. I guess this is a good school for Las Vegas standards but not mine. We pulled our kids out and put them in private school. Our family is happy again.
Lummis Elementary has a wonderful, caring staff that really meets the needs of the children. The extended day kindergarten was worth every penny. My child was reading within months. There are many extracurricular activities for the kids and a very active PTA. They host many events for families throughout the year. I was also pleased with the GATE program they offered.
Parent of 2 daughters that attend this school. We moved here from another state and I was worried to put them in public school. We love it! Organized school- fun activities.. the principal is fair-- and addresses any problems immediately and with care. Great kind teachers--good mix of kids! highly recommend. Everyone walks /rides to school-- fabulous neighborhood/easy playdates etc..
This is a wonderful school two of my children attended. We are moving out of state and are sorry to leave it. Teachers and all staff are great and really care about the kids and families. Great extracurricular activities,Great school!!
This is a wonderful, small school with great community involvement. Parents are encouraged to be invoved with the school and there is a ' flag ceremony' every Friday that involves the entire school and parnets may also attend. It is an excellent school with really caring, committed teachers.
Very nice school in Summerlin North. Next to park, play ground, pre-schools, middle school and community school. Good inexpensive onsite after school care (Safe Key). Our daughter was in 1st grade. The teacher and class were both very nice. Many inexpensive fun classes are offered by City of Las Vegas in the next door community school. The library and pool are both in a walking distance.
My son is in his 4th year at Lummis. We have been very happy with his education, the school's community involvement, the parental involvement, the after school opportunities, etc. The school had been a year round school until the begining of this school year. We are now a traditional 9 month school. My son was diagnosised with ADHD towards the end of 1st grade. The teachers have been wonderful with making slight changes that help him do his best. Example: spelling words on Friday so he has 2 days extra to study, seating him with students that won't distract him. I've always felt very comfortable communicating with his teachers. The courtyard at the school has several tortises, chickens, 2 goats. Learning about and caring for these animals is a big part of the fun for the children. They are learning and they don't even know it.
Both of my childeren attended this school, the youngest one for each grade (K-5). The classroom teachers that taught my kids ranged from very good to truly outstanding, each one of them was truly interested in my child's progress, and made sure I understood what was going on in class in general and with my child in particular. The extracurricular activities are all good, but the art and Gifted and Talented programs espcially stand out. The adminstration and office staff have been nothing but helpful. All in all, a shining example of what public education can be. My children came out of this school well prepared and with a love for learning.

(NEW YORK) -- New York Police Department Commissioner Ray Kelly dodged questions from the media about rape allegations against his son, Fox anchor Greg Kelly, on Friday. It was the first time Commissioner Kelly had faced reporters since the allegations surfaced.
At a press conference at Police Headquarters, Kelly told the press to refer all questions to the Manhattan district attorney's office.
Greg Kelly, co-host of Good Day New York, is accused of raping a paralegal in a Manhattan office; through his lawyer, Kelly denied the woman's claims.

Throw me a bone, Cingular
After telling you about Cingular Music two weeks ago, I was very excited to try it out. So when the new Samsung Sync (a.k.a. the SGH-A707) showed up in my mailbox, I jumped at the chance to give the service a thorough shakedown. But after pulling the phone from its wrapping, I noticed there wasn't a USB cable in the box. Considering the cable is necessary to use Cingular Music (wireless downloads aren't a possibility yet), and that the Sync is the launch handset for the service, I thought it might be a mistake. Yet a … Read more

That doesn't sound good. Did the email include a link to a new webpage? It could be a phishing scam. Time to check your credit card for unauthorized expenses... It's possible you just gave your login and password to a 3rd party and they have now locked you out of your own Apple ID.
It's also possible that it has nothing to do with it. You could also try deleting and then reinstalling the app.

In the late 1990s, MIT launched a project to study social interactions between humans and robots. Pictured here is Kismet with creator Cynthia Breazeal. With its human-like face, Kismet can express various emotions based on human cues. For facial dexterity, the robot was equipped with four separate motors on its lips, multiple cameras to enable peripheral vision, and a microphone in its ear.

Nike Air Max 1 Tape
June 3rd, 2013 by Aaron Hope | 3 comments
Last week, we got our first individual looks at Nike Sportswear's Air Max Premium Tape designs. Today we see the originator added to the list on this new Hyperfuse treatment, along with a hint of the camouflage graphics seen on the previous revelations on this new Nike WMNS Air Max 1. These don't have an explicit camo print, but the marbled greys along the tape sections have the same effect of adding tonal depth. These steely blue WMNS AM1 Tapes drop in July and you can pre-order today from Titolo.
