Stefano Venier achieved a few milestones on his latest motorcycle build, the Tractor 02. To begin with, it's the first project the Italian-born custom builder has completed entirely inside the United States, plus it's also the first brand-new motorcycle he's modified. Based on a 2013 Moto Guzzi V7 Stone, the Tractor 02 is inspired by one of Venier's previous projects, the V75, in which he transformed a '90's era Italian police-force NTX 750 into a militarily-styled scrambler.
The Tractor 02 sports a more aggressive, off-road worthy look compared to the V75 thanks to a pair of Continental dual-sport knobbies wrapped around the wire-spoked wheels of a V7 Racer. Venier shortened a set of Renthal handlebars for the 02 and fit a Legendary-Motorcycles GPS Speedometer and small, black LSL headlight.
Venier's New York-based client wanted the Tractor 02 to be comfortable for a rider and passenger, so he lengthened the rear frame and hand-made a custom seat slightly longer than stock. The tank is the same Venier designed for the V75, a set-up that incorporates the fuel-pump and which Venier describes as "my ideal Moto Guzzi Scrambler tank." The minimal front fender and tail section resemble those used on the V75, though the 02's front piece sits much closer to the tire, creating an almost seamless union of smooth and coarse textures.
He ditched the stock valve covers for a set with a more vintage look. At the end of the dual exhaust system are Norton Commando Megatons, which Venier feels "give some elegance to the build, I find the opposition of knobby tires with the Commando Megatons very interesting, elegance against roughness."
In terms of aesthetics, Venier is decidedly anti-flash. He decided to go with a combination of two glossy greys, separated by a gold pinstripe to accent the gold Venier Customs logo - one of the boldest uses of color on any of his builds to date.
Venier's love for Moto Guzzi runs deep, and there's no shortage of projects in the works. The 03 Scrambler, based on a V7 Classic, is currently in the build process and will feature many of the same aspects as the 02, though with some subtle differences. The California 1400 café project continues to move forward as well, though Venier says he's keen to move away from that vein of customization in order to not "follow the flow."
His work on various Guzzis over the years has attracted the attention of the Italian marque, and Venier is now slated to help provide input for new design ideas at the company's home base, Mandello del Lario, this summer.

CRASHLANDS. LANDS OF CRASH. CRASHING ON LANDS. My excitement knows no bounds. Good thing this game doesn't have any.ReplyDeleteReplies
Yes, it's JUST BIG enough to contain your boundless excitement!Delete
I demand a "Crushlands Saga" mod that turns the main character into a metaphor for our broken patenting system.ReplyDelete
Hoping for a full recovery this game looks amazing, and hopefully this won't be a big way to go out. But an exciting way to start the next chapter of your life.ReplyDelete
This comment has been removed by the author.ReplyDelete
It'll be one of numerous amazing and lasting games that you'll make! Quadropus and towelfight are still my two favorite android games. :)ReplyDelete
Eeeeeeeee!! I'm so glad to be going from "I know nothing about the next BScotch game" to "I know very little about the next BScotch game." It's infinitely more information than I had before!ReplyDelete
Quadropus is absolutely amazing.thanks for all the hard work.all my wishes for a speedy recovery so you get back to making kickass games!ReplyDelete
Please, please, please do not have numerous IAPs. One to unlock a full game is fine but don't ruin what sounds like a good game with a money grab. One price for a full game, this is what real gamers want.ReplyDeleteReplies
Sorry Thermoplastics, but we are forced to make it a free to play game with IAPs. We went the pay -up-front route with our first game and had over a 97% piracy rate and lost thousands of dollars. It nearly put our studio underground. We learned from that experience that very few people actually will pay up front, so we have no choice but to swim with the currents of the market.Delete
In fact, last year, 93% of all app-store revenue came from in-app purchases (across all games). As much as we'd like to make a pay-up-front game, it's just not something we are allowed to do by the market.
Hey, for what it's worth, I often hold Quadropus up in conversation as a great example of an ethically sound AND feel-good monetization model. I played without any IAPs down to 500 metres, having a blast all the way, and when I did decide to finally throw some dollars at the game, I felt great about it, and I thought the hammer of gratitude was a really sweet touch. Can't wait to play Crashlands! <3Delete
Thanks, fractalplay, I was wondering what this hammer is)Delete
To developers: have an interersting time with this project. Hope the health issues will be resolved.
Gonna be super hit as usual!ReplyDelete
Love all your games :)
I wish you the best of luck in your recovery. I have played Towelfight 2 and Quadropus Rampage, and they are both excellent games that you have made. It is unfortunate that this had to happen to you, and I look forward to your next game.ReplyDelete
I don't know why, but I feel like I was a bit too formal in that comment. For this reason, to alleviate this concern, I will now tell you that potatoes are delicious.

The hotel's light and bright breakfast room serves its guests a continental breakfast each morning. During the evening residents can eat at the L'Osteria di Oreste restaurant on the ground floor.

Great for airport, plus bus into Geneva city, breakfast OK, also parking available we had a hire car but used bus for city trip. Hotel on the right hand side on main road just pasted petrol station before airport turn off, coming from Geneva.

The hotel is old but everywhere is clean so it's enough to use this hotel as a airport hotel. And staff is friendly and very kind. Also breakfast service is very flexible that I've requeste them to have an breakfast around 5am, they could arrange it. So I'll use this hotel if I need to stay near Geneva aiaport.

Average hotel with good price (Geneva standard). Close to airport. Breakfast starts at 6:30 but it actually starts much earlier. The only reason to near in this area is to catch a plane, in which this hotel is good enough.

This hotel, cheaper than many others in Geneva, is very conveniently situated near the airport. It is on a busy road but quiet inside. It is clean and comfortable and serves a good breakfast and the staff are friendly and helpful.

From the outside the hotel looks a little run-down, but inside the room was spacious and comfortable. The room itself, and more importantly the fixtures, are a little tired and in need of a refurbishment, but the room and the bathroom were both clean. Breakfast was a bit of a letdown with very little choice. The reception staff didn't appear to be particularly interested, or communicative, and I would say this is the hotels biggest failing. Other than that, it is a convenient location a couple of bus stops from the airport or a 20-minute ride into town, perfectly acceptable if all you are looking for is somewhere to sleep for the night.Review by: Tom Butler

After reading both positive and negative reviews of this washer and matching dryer, we purchased them at the end of May,2012. We purposely waited two months before making a written evaluation. Both washer and dryer have been used several times a week and we are very pleased with both. While at the store, the saleslady mentioned several times to "follow directions in the owner's manual". This we carefully did and have had very positive results. The clothes are clean and the water usage is down. The dryer does a better job that our old electric dryer did when it was new. We can recommend this washer/dryer. Just remember that it is a little different technology so you have to actually read and follow the owners manual.
Doesn't wash your clothes if you put more than 2 sets of clothes or if you mix something different with them. Takes all day just to get 1/2 of your laundry done. It will stop in the middle of the wash cycle and you have to keep restarting it. Even on clean clean washer cycle it still stops in the middle of wash cycle. Not sanitary at all. Bought in Nov. of 2010 not happy from day 1. DON'T WAIST YOUR MONEY!.
Gibson City, IL
I waited to write a review on this washer. I followed the manual and also received great info from the tech that installed my washer and dryer. The new he machine sounds completely different than a traditional washer. The lid locks, unlocks, and then locks again when first starting the cycle and can not be opened to add clothes w/o pausing. Watch the "locked" light before trying to open the lid. Washing similar clothes and picking the correct settings is very important!!!! Also, learning how much soap to add is key. Always treat spots before washing. Finally, shake clothes out before placing in dryer to eliminate wrinkles. I love that the dryer can actual keep up with the washer.
Lakeville, MA
Thank goodness we purchased the warranty! Since owning this product, we've had to have it repaired twice causing a weekends of clothes building up and trips to the laundry mat. When it does work, my clothes come out clean, but I'd think again before purchasing a Kenmore product.
Pleasanton, TX
via kenmore.com
I'm from San Antonio, TX and was raised with Kenmore appliances. They don't make them like they used to. This machine has given me nothing but problems. I had to call repair man out after first month to repair sensor. It wouldn't run through a normal cycle without stopping. The washer would then just sit there and think and think. When it did go all the way through, clothes would come out still dirty and smell funny. Now the lid won't unlock and it's out of warranty. I refuse to pay Sear's or any repair service 75 dollars just to show up at my house before there's even any repair cost. This washer is going in the trash. Thanks Kenmore. You failed this time.
Titusville, PA
I agree this washer is different and you shouldn't over load it. Other than that, I think it works great. Saves on water and cleans very well. But you MUST read the instructions. It's not like old machines.
Syracuse, NY
Worst machine ever!!!! This machine is so bad that on the THIRD service call the repairman CALLED and said he wasn't coming because there was nothing he could do. Machine does not put in enough water to cover clothes - sometime I have dry spots - leaves soap film (I use HE soap and don't even use recommended amount) and leaves lint. You can watch your laundry by unscrewing the lock from the lid...you will need to insert it in to lock slot to make connection for machine to run (same as if it were still connected to lid) You will be amazed at how this machine operates - OR DOESN'T - . We purchase Protection Agreement and was told there was nothing that could be done to help us. Purchased 3/10/11. We are going to keep pursuing this to see if we can recoup any of our money and so should everyone else. THIS IS RIPPING HARD WORKING PEOPLE OFF!!!!!!! I went last night and purchased a new machine at *****'s - old style with agitator ( friends have and it works great actually WASHES.
Anchorage, AK
This washer is 19 months old and we have only had problems. It was only my husband & I the first 15 mths we owned the washer, so it got very little use. Then we had a baby and used it a bit more the last 4 mths. Now we are in the market for a new one because it doesn't even work. 1)it won't spin or agitate 2)It won't drain 3)The lid lock sensor freezes in blinking mode and sometimes it won't even start or sense a load. 4) Sometimes there wasn't even enough water to wet & wash all the clothes even small loads. 5)Powdered soap always just cakes into the clothes. 6) Even the Sears rep told me it will be better to just buy a new washer because if this one is already broken we are l going to keep spending money repairing it. 7) Seems like the control board/touch screen is fried. We are going to get an old school washer without electronics that can fail. Please save your money and don't buy this!
Chadds Ford, PA
I've had sears out 4 times in the past year. Problem still exists, never enough water, refuses to spin on rinse unless I slam the lid. Sensors have been replaced twice.
Minneapolis, MN
We bought this in 2011. We were very happy with it, other than the fact that it sounded like airplanes taking off over our house when it ran, until after just about one year (still under warranty) it made a horrific grinding metal on metal screeching sound and had to be fixed. Then, another year later, same thing. Then, a few months later, all of a sudden it quit draining. We're junking a less than two year old machine because repair costs would exceed what we paid for it.. This is a horrible product and I couldn't be more disappointed. DO NOT BUY THIS!
Denver, CO
only 2 years old, one person household, transmission broken already. Will not buy anything else from Sears....ever. Cost to replace almost same as new washer.
Norman, OK
We bought this washer in July, 2011. We were fairly satisfied with its cleaning ability and quietness. After only 20 months it ceased to spin clothes, leaving them wet after a rinse cycle. It appears the sensor control was defective and Sears wanted $320 for a replacement. Even then they would not guarantee that would fix the problem. Sears does not seem to know what causes the spin problem or if it can be repaired. The quietness of the machine is due to an underpowered motor. We are tossing it and replacing it with another brand. Over the years we have purchased several appliances from Sears but never again. They should be ashamed to sell such trash.
Coalinga, CA
This is the worst washer I have ever bought. It does not clean my clothes, and it transfers the dirt to other items in the load. I have to re-wash my jeans everytime. This is supposed to be a water saver and I have to re-wash my jeans everytime so how is this High Efficiency? With my old washer I was able to soak my jeans before washing, the sales person at Sears assured me that I would'nt have to do this anymore with this new washer, that it was a great machine. :(

This is the most frustratingly awful washer ever made. I have had it for over a year, and still feel so annoyed when using it. Can't soak, takes over an hour per wash, many times have to rehash, wringer does not always wring, door is a pain to open if you forget to throw something in, the efficiency part has me very puzzled...while the machine cranks and makes groaning sounds nothing is actually happening, no water filling..I could go on and on but I'm getting pissed off thinking about it....
Lenexa, KS
I've had this washer for 2 weeks now, and I can confirm mine is very quiet. If you've ever heard an ink jet printer, then this is what the washer sounds like. It's quieter than the old agitator style it replaced. After about 5 minutes, the sound is rather soothing to be honest. It can get a little louder during the spin cycles, but that's to be expected. As far as its cleaning features, I've had no problems. My whites are actually whiter (again, this is compared to the agitator style it replaced). I can also confirm my electric bill is going to be cheaper... KCPL allows you to see daily usage, and on the days I've done laundry, my kWh usage barely changes (+/- 1 kWh change). I'm very happy with MY unit, but I guess your milage will vary. The matching washer is also great... thanks to the washer really getting the water out during the spin cycle, the dryer doesn't work as much. Clothes are done very fast with this combination of machines. I hope this review helps you.
Gansevoort, NY
This washer does a lousy job, it doesn't get the clothes clean.Its also become a very noisy washer.I don't recommend this product at all.
Brookeville, MD
We bought this washer because of a tremendous Washington Birthday sale discount and then we were horrified after reading the negative reviews . Well after a month's use we found no trouble with its cleaning ability and no soap residue, noise or vibration problems , The lid is only slightly slanted and we can place all kinds of items includiing piles of clothes on top. I think the problem may be a failure to read and or follow the instruction booklet. However, it is too early to vouch for its durability. The companion dryer is just fine.
Merritt Island, FL
Bought my machine in Sept. 2011, am so disappointed in it overall. Cons: Clothes just dont spin dry & you can put it on heavy instead of normal and get a little dryer but not much.. Had repair man here says that's how it is. Dungarees constantly come out twisted & wrinkled even though they are evenly distributed. Washer still vibrates a lot even though it is balanced, again Sears repairman said "that's normal". Dark clothes come out with some white even though I use 2-3 tablespoons of detergent. Pros: Clothes do come out clean. I have been a Kenmore customer for over 45 years, but never again will I buy this washer. I strongly recommend another brand.
Norwalk, CT
If there is a spot on something, don't expect it to be gone. Dish towels come out dingy. So disappointed in this machine.
Orange, TX
This washer clean clothes very well. I do not like that the lid locks, have to pause cycle to put in another item. Also the beginning of wash cycle is VERY noisy and last a while.
The reviewer indicated they received a sample of this product.
Charlotte, NC
The control panel went out mere months after warranty expired - so I have to constantly stop/restart/stop/restart/stop/restart before it will begin washing. The fabric softener component cracked broke (I never use it) so I could never reattach it. For the past year, I can't even get through a spin cycle without it giving me an error. Terrible terrible terrible machine, I regret buying this. If I could afford it (I can't) I would have replaced it sooner. 5 years use for a washing machine (that worked terrible) SUCKS. I will buy another Kenmore, but NOT ANYTHING CLOSE TO THIS ONE.
Ramona, CA
I purchased this machine a year ago. Fine for a few months but then noticed that spin cycle was inefficient. Shortly before the warranty expired I called for service. Had to wait several days and then another week before parts arrived. To be without a washer for so long when I have a very ill husband who creates much laundry was not a good experience! Very frustrated that Sears offers no emergency service! Now, a month or so later, the washer keeps stalling early in the cycle and will not complete a wash on any cycle. This time I have to wait two weeks for a service call, and who knows how long after that for whatever parts might be needed. My previous Kenmore washer worked perfectly for almost 25 years with no service calls, but this new breed is already failing after 14 months. I am disillusioned and disappointed, to put it mildly. My advice to anyone contemplating buying this machine: Don't!!
Casper, WY
i have only had this washer for 2 years and wash maybe 4 loads a week- it no longer will spin all the water out of the clothes and i am having to use the spin cycle several times after the wash just to be able to place the clothes in the dryer. i do not suggest buying this one if it goes out after just 2 years.
Manassas, VA
I am totally disappointed with this appliance!!!! I was really excited to get an HE washer and go green, but this washer fails horribly at the job it's supposed to do. My clothes never come out clean and sometimes they even come out of the washer dry. The other comments are correct, the washer sucks! I wish I would have kept my 20 year old Kenmore washer. It did a great job, but the dryer was going so we thought we should buy a set if we were going to get a new dryer. We bought it February 2012 and I wish I?d had more time to pay closer attention to it (going to Afghanistan and starting a master?s degree really eats up your time) because now it?s too late to return it. I would just advise you to never, never, never purchase this piece of ****. You might as well just save yourself the money and hand wash your own clothes, because that?s essentially what you?ll have to do, since it can?t manage to wash anything sufficiently.
Marana, AZ
This machine is horrible! Do NOT purchase this item. The clothes do not get clean and it stains my clothes with blue Downy on every load. I have had sears repair out 5 times with no help! I am shocked at the poor service I have received and will never purchase another sears product.
Oceano, CA
via kmart.com
i have had this machine for a few weeks now, got it early for Christmas, and so far it's great. It took out some old stains that i had that did not come out in my old washer, i got this machine and my local Kmart store, it was lot cheaper in the store then the price online. I really like this machine it is different but it seem to do a very good job, and it's quite. This works for me.

I ordered the temp controller below off of eBay. It appears to be a copy of a stc 1000 I believe. I liked the fact it reportedly read in F and not C like many others eBay controllers. (The single stage does not bother me since I will not be heating and only cooling.) My issue and question is does anyone else have this controller and can you adjust the display to show 2 digits the same size? The picture below show the unit reading 48 degrees F which is correct but as you can see the number 8 is smaller than the number 4, like it should be a decimal point and not the primary number.
As expected the minimal included instructions are broken English and say nothing about the display. That may be why the eBay add does not show the unit with the display on.
That might be showing 4.8 degrees. If it's Celsius then it's about 40.6 deg. Fahrenheit.
That's one of the trade-offs with the single stage, farenheit, controllers. Given that it is spec'd for controlling up to 194degF with 1deg resolution, it needs three digits. The STC1000 reads in celcius and is spec'd up to 99degC with 0.1deg resolution, and it also needs three digits. It appears that most of the single stage controllers use the same front panel led module as the STC1000 like this CH54
However, there are singles stages out there with full size digits like thisNotice that the labeling on the bezels is different. This might be an indicator.
Thanks for the helpful information and pics. So far this unit is working fine and keeping the beer cold... That's what really matters, even with a odd display.

Old Town, Rhodes Town
Rhodes Town , Rhodes
Concierge.com's insider take:
This maze of lanes is the oldest inhabited medieval city in Europe. The Knights of St. John, a military religious order organized in Jerusalem to care for Christian pilgrims, used it as their power base in medieval times. Ippoton, the "Street of the Knights," is a long cobbled lane lined with inns, a separate one for Knights from each country. Rhodes was the warriors' last defense against the Ottoman Turks, but in 1522, they were crushed by Süleyman the Magnificent and his army of 100,000. The mosque built shortly after his victory stands at the top of Sokratous Street.

mwbutler (23rd October 2012)
@mwbutler - what other one? Missed the link out... regarding cards, though, this scatter graph is a good starting point - the closer the top left the better. Looks like the 7850 is a solid choice, but the 660 is worth the bump up if you can stretch to it. That graph won't necessarily be accurate this side of the pond, mind.
Last edited by sonofsanta; 23rd October 2012 at 09:18 AM.
Here's the link. I see the price difference isn't that much so I'll keep that in mind. Thanks!
The 660Ti is a better card than the 660 as well, FWIW - completely different class of product, but nVidia's naming scheme is idiotic - but the price difference is fairly significant, i.e. £170 vs. £235
Oh yes. At a quick glace I think Overclockers prices are better than Scans / Arias / Ebuyers for these graphics cards anyway so I think I'll get a card from there. Just need to decide on how much I want to spend now...I'll probably get the GTX 660 as the upgrade from the 7850 seems to be worth it for the extra £20-£30 or so. Thanks again.
I did that during the summer sales. Bought loads of games and I haven't touched most of them

Plenty of my friends are looking

Find a pet to adopt
My name is Cameron!
Facts about Cameron
- Breed: Domestic Shorthair
- Color: Gray, Blue Or Silver Tabby
- Age: Kitten
- Sex: Male
- Hair: Short
Cameron's Info...
I am already neutered, up to date with shots, good with kids, good with dogs, and good with cats.
I was rescued off the streets with my siblings (Emma, Liberty and Archie). We are all now waiting for our forever homes. Wont you give us a chance?
Other Pets at A Wing and a Prayer Animal Rescue
Why Adoption is a Great Option
Cameron, a Farmingdale Domestic Shorthair kitten was adopted! Here's how you can benefit by looking at adoption as an option to buying a Domestic Shorthair for sale in Farmingdale, or seeking a Domestic Shorthair kitten from a breeder in Farmingdale.
- Rescues and shelter volunteers in Farmingdale already know the personality and tendencies of their pets. This means they can match you with the right pet. That will makes it much easier transition to owning a pet for yourself and your new pet.
- On average adoption fees are much less than you'd pay a Farmingdale breeder, or pet store. Plus most often rescue pets have already been to the veterinarian for a check-up, had a round of vaccinations, and are spayed or neutered. That is a lot of savings!
- You will become a hero, and give a needy dog or cat a loving home. In fact, there are even Domestic Shorthair breeders who help with Domestic Shorthair rescue. One puppy or kitten adopted in Farmingdale paves the way for another one to be saved.

Supply Chain Tax Savings Emerge as a Result of the Downturn
10:32 AM MST | March 3, 2009 | Alex Scott
Chemical companies could be taking advantage of substantial tax savings as a direct result of changes in their supply chains brought about by the economic downturn, say industry tax experts at KPMG. Significant financial savings can be generated by effectively aligning tax strategies with supply chain restructuring initiatives, KPMG says. Savings may be achieved by implementing tax efficient supply chain management (TESCM), says Frank Mattei, head of KPMG's global chemicals tax practice, along with colleagues Thomas Zollo, tax principal for KMPG in the...

Embarrassing Family
Find a Conversation
|Thu, 04-03-2003 - 5:04pm
I am single female that is in a relationship, though not ready for the altar just yet. I recently went home for the holidays and to my horror (not necessarily my surprise) I really realized that I come from a family of slobs. Slobs is really not the word to describe it, but its the best I can do in this public forum...plus I AM talking about my own flesh and blood. In any case, Its not just my Mom, but my Grandma, my uncles. Their homes are junky, smelly, messy and dirty and falling apart. My sister and I are not at all like this. For years I didn't understand my sister's aversion to this side of the family. I just thought she was a snob. But it just hit me that I too am totally disgusted by it. How could I possibly bring even the most loving and understanding man around this. He'd be horrified. Mothers and grandmothers tend to be indicators of the inherent nature of their daughters. Although not always true, this tends to be the perception. I am in a very promising relationship and would want him to meet my family. What should I do?? Lying is not an option. But I'm afraid avoidance won't work either....
Your comments are appreciated
|Thu, 04-03-2003 - 5:16pm
If not, just prepare him for it. If he truly is the ONE, then it won't matter. By the time you do bring him to meet your family, he should know enough about you to realize this isn't you.
|Fri, 04-04-2003 - 8:03am
Sit down and talk with him. Tell him the things that you love about your family. Things that you have learned from them. Tell him about their accomplishments and about their disappointments. And then tell him that although you love your family and have become who you are because of them, you are embarressed by the way they keep themselves and their house up. Prepare him that they are not bothered by the clutter and the smell. They just live and are happy and don't even notice the condition around them. Tell him you hope that he will be able to love them in spite of the mess and that he will get to know them as people and not judge them by the condition of the home and clothes.
I also think having dinner somewhere else is a great first meeting. Save the house for later. Give him a chance to get to know them. But he should be able to get over all these things because he loves you and wants to be with you.
Are you planning on a meeting or are you just thinking ahead??
|Fri, 04-04-2003 - 9:04am
|Fri, 04-04-2003 - 4:26pm
I suppose there's no way of getting around it. I don't want to hurt my family, but I also don't want my Bf to think that I may one day revert to living like that once we're married. Right now I am just thinking ahead. My family knows who he is and has spoken to him several times on the phone. He has offered to come and visit my family when I've been visiting, but I always come up with a reason to tell him no. I don't think he has any idea why. Anyway, he's a nurse and his father was a physician and he's very neat and health/hygeine conscious, which is why I'm a lit more concerned about this than normal. I know that cleanliness is very important to him. But I suppose you're right that if he loves me he'll get over my family. But I can imagine it wouldn't be easy. But again thank you for you comments.

"We can confirm that to date, there has been no impact to our production from Banyu Urip Field in Cepu Block," Jeffrey Haribowo, a Jakarta-based communication adviser at Exxon Mobil Indonesia, said in an e-mailed statement yesterday. Banyu Urip field with a target to eventually produce 165,000 barrels a day, the company said in its website.
Protesting workers blocked road access to Exxon Mobil's production facility in Cepu since March 9, Gde Pradnyana, a Jakarta-based spokesman at the Indonesia's oil and gas regulator BPMigas said yesterday. The block now produces 22,000 barrels of oil a day, he said.
Mobil Cepu and Ampolex Cepu Pte Ltd. own 45 percent of the Cepu oil and gas block, Pertamina EP Cepu holds 45 percent, and the Cepu Block Cooperation Body holds the rest, the company said on its website.

Gerrard, Lampard call for Capello to stay
Associated Press
BLOEMFONTEIN, South Africa -- Fabio Capello has no plans to quit as coach despite overseeing England's most lopsided World Cup defeat.
England lost 4-1 to Germany on Sunday in a second-round match during which its defense was badly exposed.
Capello said he wanted to discuss his future with Football Association chairman Roger Burden soon, but the 64-year-old Italian made it clear he had no immediate plans to resign.
"We have time to decide," Capello said. "I need to know whether the FA have confidence in me or not ... I want to speak with the chairman and then we can decide my future."
In early June, the Capello signaled his desire to remain with England by signing a deal with the FA that removed an escape clause that could have let him leave after the World Cup.
Capello, who has coached Real Madrid and AC Milan, took over the England squad in January 2008 after Steve McClaren was fired for failing to qualify England for the 2008 European Championship.
Capello quickly transformed the England squad, imposing strict discipline and a no-nonsense approach. England's players responded, and the team breezed through World Cup qualifying by winning nine of 10 games.
Frank Lampard
, who thought he'd scored an equalizer before halftime but was not awarded a goal against Germany, sought to play down speculation about Capello's future. Lampard said debate over a coach's fate is routine after a dramatic World Cup exit.
"At the end of the day, when an England team gets knocked out of the World Cup there's question marks about managers and old players," said Lampard, who described Capello as a "top manager."
Steven Gerrard
also supported keeping Capello at the helm.
"I'd like him to stay because I think he's a fantastic manager," Gerrard said. "I'm sure he'll address his own situation very soon."
Capello's current contract runs through the 2012 European Championship in Poland and Ukraine.

Tsonga wins Marseille Open titleComment on this story
Paris – Frenchman Jo-Wilfried Tsonga saved a matchpoint before beating world No 6 Tomas Berdych 3-6 7-6 6-4 in the Marseille Open final to claim his 10th ATP Tour title on Sunday.
World No 8 Tsonga was trailing 5-6 in the second-set tie-break but hit back-to-back aces to push the Czech to a decisive set and eventually put an end to his losing run against the top-seeded Berdych.
Tsonga, who had lost their three previous encounters, the latest in the ATP World Tour finals round-robin in November, made the most of his chances in the big-serving clash.
The local favourite had two break points in the third set's third game and broke serve to clinch his second title in Marseille after his 2009 triumph. – Reuters

Thanks for the replies we currently charge £10 in advance £12 on the day, we only have a winners male and female prizes but do give a medal to all. My view is we don't need chip timing as per your comments but said I would canvas replies.
Hi all I help organise a fun run, we have 250 entrants across 10k and 3k runs .(charity fund raising)
is it worth £500 to have chip timing, will this increase the numbers or are runners happy enough with a stop watched time. (Never had any complaints) but we are looking to increase YOY
If I can persuade the family, Rome or Amsterdam seem like a good idea! Any you would recommend in the UK or abroad without the need to raise a lot for charity.
I just thought I'd update. I completed the Marathon in 4:33 so overall very pleased but very similar experience to daeve, In hindsight I didn't get enough long runs in only one 20 mile before the event. I got to 18 miles in 3 hours then it all went to pot 1:33 for the next 8 no injuries just dead legs, Great event Barcelona, Rome next!!
Some great comments and advice Thanks

Hi all!
Kind of resurrecting an old post here but I wanted to get my two cents in...
Sacul isn't too far away from Nacogdoches. In fact, its in the same county. I'm a founding member of the Nac Brew Club and our next meeting is on July 15th at 6:00PM. Its an open meeting and you're absolutely welcome to come check us out. We'll have bottles of the beer we made at the last meeting to sample and will probably make another batch of something else. We've been around for over two years now and just had our second annual Spring Brewfest. There's quite an active homebrewing community in/around Nacogdoches. Its how I really got into it.
Come see us if you can. We're on Facebook at: https://www.facebook.com/groups/179480935442962/ The link to the meeting info is about halfway down the page.
2nd, Nacogdoches has an outstanding homebrew group.
Damn, wished I still lived in Nacogdoches. Great town.
I'm in Wooodville. I'd love to come up and learn something with the Nac home-brew group.
Just tell me where and when.
