Here I sit at my kitchen table, which is pretty much my favourite place to be. Just got home from a bike ride… a bike ride in the snow. It was the perfect snow, the kind where there are flurries in the air, but they're not yet ready to stay on the ground. I brought some zines to a friend and he said, "You're having your magical winter moment." That I am. I like the first snow, I like the beginnings of a new season in general, but like I said to the postal clerk that I bought my stamps from this afternoon, « Après quelques semaines là je suis tannée de la neige. » Still, I am looking forward to this winter, oddly enough, and here is my game plan: eat well, read lots, stay cozy.
I just spent three weeks in my home province, more time than I've spent there since I moved to Québec nearly four years ago. I alternated between my mom's home in Fenelon Falls, Dave Cave's new house in Lindsay, and Maranda's place in Guelph. I had literally zero obligations while I was there, and spent most of my time reading books, writing in my journal, and practicing making comics. There were good thrift scores to be found, tasty food to be eaten, and many conversations to be had. (I know what you're thinking: But weren't you supposed to be in England?! Well yes, but there was a slight change in plans and I'M GONNA MAKE A ZINE ABOUT IT OKAY).
Dave Cave took care of me while I was in Lindsay. He greeted me in the mornings with lemon water and vitamins, then we'd make a to-do list for the day. When he came home from work, I'd say, "How was your day, dear?" and we were basically a married couple for the week. His dining room became my favourite place in Lindsay, more of a writing nook than anything else.
When I came home, Stefanie (my roommate-soulmate!) had hung a banner in my bedroom… actually she hadn't quite finished it yet. I walked into the house carrying a backpack full of zines, another one full of books and clothes, and a bag of cat ornaments and junk from various thrift stores and she said, "You can't be home yet!" So I waited outside the door and played with Sebastian and Thunder. Finally, she invited me in, and there it was: a handmade sharpie'd banner! Stefanie is seriously the most considerate and thoughtful person that I know. She's in the kitchen right now too, preparing vegan gluten-free pizza for our guests tonight. Tulip Farm dream life.
I'm still riding on the posi vibes that I picked up while visiting friends and family in Ontario. I'm spending my time doing the things that I always do: reading zines, writing letters, riding my bike. I feel optimistic about the upcoming winter.

2) Last month, I was interviewed by The Link about the Fight Boredom Zine Residency. Can't wait to have new residents next spring!
3) I'm tabling with the distro at a house show in Verdun next weekend, please stop by! The Facials and Vile Intent are so fucking good. Facebook event here.

Toyota Corolla Real World MPG
mcdawgg Posts: 1,668Well, if you look at Consumer Report's real world mpg test, it says that the Corolla is best in class, except for a hybrid and a diesel.
My experience is it is easy to get 37 mpg on the highway at a steady 70 mph, light winds, 40+ degrees F. If slower than 70, not a problem to get 39 mpg.
City - it does very well also, but it is too hard to compare one person's "city" with anothers. That's why I say compare Consumer Report's real world mpg. -
terceltom Posts: 1,017I currently have three Corollas, I have a 1992, 2001 and a 2009 and I never got better then 28 mpg with 90 % city driving on any of my Corollas. Highway is another story, I can easily get 38 with any of them with the A.C. on and cruising at 65 mph. That being said, I love all of my Corollas. The only other small car I would even consider would be a Mazda 3.
circuitsmith Posts: 117
janderson8 Posts: 30My Civic is a 2005. It is rated, I believe, at 29 city, but I have had no problem getting over 30 during the warmer months in city driving. (The same exact kind of driving got me only 18-19 in a 2000 Camry (rated at 23 city), so I'm wondering if Toyota inflates their mileage ratings or finds some way to list them higher. My Civic is a manual. The Camry was an automatic. Of course, a new Civic would probably cost $2000 more than the Corolla, which would compensate money wise for the extra gas but it wouldn't do the environment or our national oil consumption any good.
mcdawgg Posts: 1,668Toyota does not "inflate" their mileage ratings any more than Honda. They all are EPA ratings, not individual ratings, and all the makers try to score the highest possible on the EPA test. Did you check out Consumer Reports' real word mpg ratings?
For 100,000 miles, but the car costs $2,000 more, you would have to have much more mpg to make it worth it. For example, at 28.5 mpg a new Civic is 3.5 mpg better than a Corolla, but $2,000 more, then it is break even.= 25 mpg. At 34mpg vs 29 mpg, that is break-even. Assuming $4.00 per gallon.
I have no problems getting EPA or better on a 2010 Camry with a 6 speed manual, or 2010 Corolla auto. -
terceltom Posts: 1,017
dudleyr Posts: 3,464When I say beat them I mean by like 10 mpg. My '07 Accord stick is rated 31 highway and I have averaged 35 mpg for 160,000 miles. More than 60 tanks have been over 40 mpg. My '90 Integra actually gets worse mpg, but it is only rated at 26mpg highway. I very rarely have a tank under 30mpg in that car and it can get 40 mpg occasionally.
Never heard of an MT that could not easily beat EPA ratings. -
terceltom Posts: 1,017
oliver69 Posts: 1You may want to keep track of how much time you are spending at lights, in traffic, etc. Because, even though, you are not moving and clocking miles on your odometer you ARE burning fuel and that eats into your fuel economy.
My brother has a Honda civic hybrid with a readout that tells you the car's fuel economy in real time and we noticed that as we were stopped or in traffic the economy gauge would, fairly quickly, tick down from 45 to 42, 40, 38. This may be the reason why you are not getting the mileage you are supposed to.
Just an idea. -
tucson_mike Posts: 11Yup, right you are. I think I read if you are stopped longer than 15sec it pays to turn the car off which I do regularly on my route to work where I know the light will be long. Also a key thing on newer cars is if you know you are going to be stopping, just take your foot of the gas (stay in gear) and the injectors will shut off and your guage should shortly read 100MPG
hoopitup2000 Posts: 46I've driven quite a few 02-06 Corollas & noticed after idling for more than 10 or so seconds, the engine idle becomes a little rougher. I'm thinking the engine fuel mixture is intentionally leaned out to increase fuel economy? Any thoughts?
I moved a few month's ago & now sit in quite a bit of stop & go traffic on the daily commute. Even with the air conditioner on, mileage is still outstanding as long as RPM's are kept low. Running average (last 10 tanks) is 41 MPG & overall average is 39.6 since October 2012. (2005 -5 speed) -
dgcorolla96 Posts: 4
dgcorolla96 Posts: 4
hoopitup2000 Posts: 46The main thing to concentrate on is to PRESERVE MOMENTUM as much as possible. Look ahead for slowing traffic, curves, red lights, etc. & let off the gas to minimize brake usage as much as possible. Trying not to piss off people behind you while doing this may require somewhat of a compromise at times, so keep that in mind as well. Let's face it, MANY drivers are impatient & don't realize they will not get to point B any faster by driving like it is their last day on earth. They drive by the seat of their pants & use no common sense.
Try to not stop completely when approaching red lights as well. Starting up from a complete stop uses more fuel than a very slow roll. Avoid surging as much as possible.
Do not warm up the car more than 30 seconds, but do drive gently for the first few minutes to allow ALL the components of the car to safely warm up. Just sitting in the driveway waiting for the car to warm up only warms the engine, not the transmission & other vital components.
Turn off the engine if you will be idling for more than 3-4 minutes.
Unfortunately, the automatic can only yield impressive numbers (around 40 MPG) on the open flat road at speeds 65 & under. Add in some hills, or stop & go & you can only expect around 30 or so MPG.
The manual allows complete control over the engines pumping losses which can account for most the fuel conservation. Maintaining the lowest possible RPM's without lugging is the key to getting impressive numbers in stop & go driving situations. For example, when accelerating if the RPM's are kept BELOW 2500 with a medium to heavy foot, pumping losses are greatly reduced & less fuel is used. When climbing steep hills, only downshift if necessary & mash the accelerator to the floor if needed with the manual. I just traveled through the steep twisty Route 50 through West Virginia (never again) & managed an almost record 43 MPG on that tank. One incline was steep enough to require a downshift to 3rd gear & the accelerator to the floor for at least one mile. (Yikes) Keep in mind that the procedures explained in this last paragraph ONLY APPLY TO MANUAL TRANSMISSIONS. Heavy acceleration with the automatic will use MORE fuel, not LESS, as with a manual & proper gear selection. -
hoopitup2000 Posts: 46
kipk Posts: 1,576Good advice! I'm a bit confused about the heavy acceleration with manual trannys, but I no longer own one, and can't debate the issue.
There are times that things just don't go the way we want, but here are some thoughts.
I try to keep in mind that the main difference in highway mileage and city is the use of the brakes. Whenever brakes are used, we either just wasted gas or about to waste it. And the more frequent and harder the brakes are applied, the more gas we wasted.
Another common but not recognized waste of gas is accelerating on an incline. Much better to accelerate on a decline so gravity can help mileage rather than hinder.
But we have to use good sense also!
Kip -
hoopitup2000 Posts: 46Conventional "Otto Cycle" engines operate most efficiently at lower RPM's with the throttle MORE OPEN than closed. Therefore shifting as early as possible with a larger throttle opening maximizes engine efficiency during acceleration.
This is the why the manual transmission can far exceed a conventional automatic in city driving scenarios. The manual also wins out on the highway in hilly/mountainous areas. Automatics will downshift & jack the RPM's up to an inefficient level. (Higher RPM/ small throttle opening=reduced efficiency) With the manual, burying the accelerator & avoiding unnecessary downshifts is far more efficient, of course you don't want to lug the engine. (Lower RPM/wider throttle opening= higher efficiency)
Google "Pumping losses", Atkinson Cycle engines" & Diesel engines for a more thorough explanation. -

About Smus's Garage
About me and my passion for cars
I love cars. Whether it be a Honda or a Hummer, I find everything about cars interesting.
I Like my cars quick, but style is important as well, a good blend of "show and go" is fundamental in any car, ranging from the newest Import from Europe or Japan sitting in a parking lot, to a classic '55 Bel Aire crusing the strip, its important to look good.
My first car
My first car was a 2001 Pontaic Sunfire GT.
It's often refered to as a "girly car" but I quicky reply that it just means they are more willing to take a ride. Its got some guts to it, so it works for me.
Car I wish I still had
My Mazdaspeed Protege. Rare (#333 of 5000), it had a stick, the suspension was perfect, and if I would have fixed the issues that it had, I'd still be driving that car. It didn't have as much power, but it was more fun to drive I think. Granted, I couldn't do burnouts with it...hmm
My dream car
My List (In no order)
2007 Porsche 911 GT3 RS
1970 Pontiac Firebird Trans Am
1991 Mazda RX7 Turbo II
2003 MazdaSpeed Protege
2009 Mitsubishi Lancer Evolution X
1956 Ford F100
and last but not least
A Locost 7 (a Lotus 7 replica)

Find a Doctor
Bruce Bornfleth, MD
- ,
Specializing in Internal Medicine, Dr. Bornfleth earned his medical degree from George Washington University in Washington, DC. The events of September 11, 2001 occurred during his third year of medical school which led to some life altering experiences. Within days of completing his internship at Naval Medical Center San Diego in 2004, Dr. Bornfleth was on a plane to Iraq for his first of two deployments with a Marine Infantry Battalion based at Twentynine Palms, CA.
From clerkships to Battalion Surgeon, Dr. Bornfleth's experiences in military medicine introduced him to a wide range of patients: from those suffering from rare diseases to many others with common medical ailments. While in the military, he taught and oversaw the training of more than 60 Corpsmen in trauma and primary care. Additionally, he provided medical care to hundreds of United States and Coalition forces, Iraqi detainees and civilians — all of which served to strengthen his commitment to the practice of medicine.
Dr. Bornfleth has received a number of military honors, including the Navy and Marine Corps Commendation Medal, Navy and Marine Corps Achievement Medal, and the Military Outstanding Volunteer Medal among others. After his commitment to the military was completed, Dr. Bornfleth went on to finish his internal medicine residency training at UC-Irvine Medical Center.
"I believe Internal Medicine specialists are in a position to have an enormous impact on patients' lives. By knowing our patients on a personal level, we are in a unique position to make adjustments in the delivery of care to meet the needs of individual patients and families."

Defend The Motherland!
Announcing Fury of the Bear, an expansion for Tide of Iron |
Tide Of Iron | Published 15 April 2010 |
It is June 22, 1941...
Operation Barbarossa has commenced and the Nazi invasion of the Soviet Union has begun. Employing over 4.5 million troops, Germany's invasion spreads across an 1800 mile front. Pressing forward, the Germans seek to claim territory up to the Arkhangelsk-Astrakhan line. These two Soviet cities mark the proposed eastern border of the Reich. The Soviets, however, have no intention of going quietly.
Despite Soviet defenses, Germany continued to gain momentum from successes in other areas. Operation Typhoon began, targeting Moscow. But once again, Soviet defense forces pushed Germany back. A counter-attack would soon follow...
Fantasy Flight Games is pleased to announce Fury of the Bear, an upcoming expansion to Tide of Iron! Take command of the Germans or the Soviet forces as war on the Eastern Front begins.
The Fury of the Bear expansion for Tide of Iron builds on an already epic game experience by adding the forces of an entirely new nation, as well as new vehicles, winter terrain, scenarios, and more! Featuring nearly 100 plastic figures for the Soviet army, plus new German figures, tokens, cards, and 9 new Eastern Front map boards, the Fury of the Bear expansion will let you experience Tide of Iron in an entirely new way.
In addition, Fury of the Bear will also offer exciting new mechanics, such as a combined strategy deck, a system of counter intelligence known as subversion, and all-new specialization types! Keep checking back! In the coming weeks we will explore these aspects of Fury of the Bear with a series of previews leading up to its release.
With all these additions, not to mention the most tanks of any Tide of Iron release, Fury of the Bear will expand your options and challenge your strategies!
This summer, the invasion begins. Are you prepared to face the fury of a nation?
Tide of Iron is an epic board game of tactical WWII combat that grants 2-4 players control of either American or German military forces, pitting squads of fighting men and vehicles against each other in one of several scenarios.
Now that the Eastern European front has The Fury of the Bear, when may we look for a Tide of Iron Pacific game?
FFG, you cannot quit on TOI until you release the FOTB expansion. I promise to buy it, either at the game store or order it directly if necessary. If it is still in development, then please consider the comments made already about the T34 model turret not looking right. Maybe a different model should be used for casting, like the 43 version with the more hexagonal turret and gas drums on the side.
Other pieces I would like to see are: 122mm artillery, 76.2 AT gun, and a Katusha rocket truck. And armored cars, both Russian, and the German Puma would be great. I like that the 88 flak gun was added, but would also like to see the Whirlbelwind quad flak tank. The upgunned T34/85 would be nice too.
I like all the infantry figures in all the expansions so far, except that I wish the officer figures were a little more distintive. Please show the Fury of the Bear infantry figures as soon as possible. Maybe a jeep and an officer combo base?
I'm very intested in getting this expansion. My question to the powers that be, why no information or interaction on the forums???! After scouring the forms, and net, very little information has been provided in the way of updates to any shipping dates. If FFG was serious about it, it would seem it would do at least a little in the way of getting on the TOI forms and share some information. So, to FFG staff: Why do you not actively participate in the forums and at least generate 'some' interest by offering tantilizing tid-bits of information, hints, inuendo's, heck, ANYTHING? So, while very interested, I'm also very dissapointed.
It's been awhile since I've heard news but I'm still patient. Witness my patience (I've put money aside, I count it every day in honor of my patience!!), but c'mon already. I remember when Normandy came out. It was just at the shop one day, I felt like there was no warning. Maybe an article from Dana Lombardy.. a little teaser...
We go back to school next week. Summer 2010 is almost over. Fury of the Bear is not even on the "boat" yet.
Please, give us some update. Pictures of the maps, tanks, soldiers, something to keep us going, Please>
When is there going to be more news about this game?
I want to see hills that provide cover. I dont like how the only way to be on a hill and not be vulnerable is to have an entrenchment.
Im excited for some intense city fights and great tank battles.
Glad to see the Russian expansion and looking forward to the new combined strategy deck. Got to find where my game shop moved to so I can get this expansion. The graphics quality of this game is outstanding. Its a great game to leave set up and play at your leisure. With painted figures it becomes quite a nice layout and a good miniatures display.
Now you guys (FFG) have the chance to introduce TRENCHES javascript:void(0);/*1276848017405*/ To have my troops "standing" on a hill when defending seems really stupied... in real wars, if time is available, trenches is dig and the enemy then awaited.
Something news? Pleas, tell us some new details...
funny with a game expansion where you either play the bad guys or the badder guys. (won`t go into any discussion here). Anyway Eastern front is my favourite setting in all war games. The intensity and size of those battles cannot be compared to anything on the western front or pacific. Looking forward for this expansion. urrah!
well i guess i didnt count right, the germans have 7 tanks.
Im really curious about what german vehicles there will be. It seems like they already have all of their major tanks. I think the germans number at 6 tanks now if i counted right. Maybe they will be some of the earlier tanks since operation barbarossa started relatively early in the war still.

Some books we're in the mood for this summer.
We'll be honest, traditional, trashy, throwaway beach reads don't excite us very much. Our summer "must reads" are books we'd be proud to leave behind at the beach house for the next guest to read (but rarely do, because we find it too hard to part with them). You might not agree with all our selections, but we're fairly certain you'll find something here that interests you—unless you prefer shell collecting to reading. In which case, we'll understand.

Chicago is one of my most favorite cities in the world! It is diverse and has an enormous amount of character. For professionals who choose to relocate to the Windy City, here are a few tips that may help with your transition:
1. Chicago – like most cities – is a relationship-driven city. It is very important that you establish strong, healthy relationships with your peers, gain the respect of those your report to, and earn the trust of your direct reports right away.
2. Leave the inflated ego on the tarmac. A common mistake is to believe that your accomplishments somewhere else will automatically garner respect or favor here; nothing could be further from the truth. While you may be impressive, you have to earn your stripes. If not, you could be isolated and left to fend for yourself. Most of what you gain in Chicago is earned – good or bad.
3. Be mindful of your tone. It is not what you say but how you say it. Being aggressive and assertive carries the risk of sliding off the slippery slope. So when developing your network, relationships and reputation, make sure your tone is not condescending, critical and accusatory. Those three things will place you in the quarantine pool quickly.
4. Stay above the fray. Getting involved in gossip and having an opinion too soon often backfires, so hush.
5. Socializing is key to others getting to know you. You have to be someone that others know, like and trust. Connect with your peers and executives in settings that allow them to experience a more authentic back you.
Well, there you have it. Five tips that should make your professional transition to Chicago more pleasurable and successful. Welcome to Chicago and good luck!

The Global Intelligence Files
On Monday February 27th, 2012, WikiLeaks began publishing The Global Intelligence Files, over five million e-mails from the Texas headquartered "global intelligence" company Stratfor. The e-mails date between July 2004 and late December 2011. They reveal the inner workings of a company that fronts as an intelligence publisher, but provides confidential intelligence services to large corporations, such as Bhopal's Dow Chemical Co., Lockheed Martin, Northrop Grumman, Raytheon and government agencies, including the US Department of Homeland Security, the US Marines and the US Defence Intelligence Agency. The emails show Stratfor's web of informers, pay-off structure, payment laundering techniques and psychological methods.

Clashes shake Yemeni capital despite deal, 2 dead
By AHMED AL-HAJ, Associated Press a** 49 minutes ago
SANAA, Yemen (AP) a** Heavy fighting between government forces and
defected military troops shook the Yemeni capital early Friday, killing
two people in what could signal the start of a power struggle just days
after autocratic President Ali Abdullah Saleh agreed to end his 33-year
The clashes pitted Central Security forces commanded by Saleh's nephew,
Col. Yehia Saleh, against troops from the First Armored Division, headed
by Gen. Ali Mohsen al-Ahmar, who defected and joined the protesters in
March. The troops fired machine guns and mortars, some of which landed
on civilian homes and scarred the facades of buildings.
A security official said one soldier from each side was killed before
the fighting stopped around dawn. He spoke on condition of anonymity
because he was not authorized to brief the media.
The two units have clashed in the past, but Friday's fighting, near the
home of Vice President Abed Rabbo Mansour Hadi, was the first showdown
between military units since Saleh signed a U.S.-backed proposal
Wednesday in the Saudi capital Riyadh. Under the agreement, Saleh
transferred power to his vice president, who is to serve as acting
president and until early presidential elections within 90 days.
If the deal holds, Saleh would be the fourth dictator pushed from power
this year by the Arab Spring uprisings.
But Saleh's spokesman, Ahmed al-Soufi, added further confusion to what
exactly the agreement seeking to end the country's nine-month political
crisis means, saying Friday that Saleh has not given up his
"constitutional duties" and remains in power.
On Friday, tens of thousands of Yemenis returned to the streets across
the country to reject the power-transfer deal and call for Saleh's trial
for crimes ranging from corruption to lethal crackdowns on protests.
Yemenis first took to the streets in late January, inspired by popular
uprisings against dictators in Tunisia and Egypt, and have faced harsh
police action since. Hundreds have been killed.
The crisis has created a security vacuum across the country, leading to
clashes between armed tribesmen and government troops in a number of
areas. In the restive south, Yemen's active al-Qaida branch has taken
advantage of the vacuum to overrun entire towns.
Al-Haj reported from Cairo.
Yemenis stage rival Sanaa rallies amid violence
By Hammoud Mounassar (AFP) a** 3 hours ago
SANAA a** Opponents and supporters of Ali Abdullah Saleh held rival
rallies in the Yemeni capital Friday after pre-dawn fighting between
rival security forces dashed hopes an exit deal for the president would
end the violence.
Youth activists, who have spearheaded 10 months of protests against
Saleh's 33 year rule in which hundreds have died, are furious that the
agreement signed with the parliamentary opposition on Wednesday promises
Saleh and his family immunity from prosecution.
"The blood of the martyrs which has thrown you out of power, Saleh, will
throw you in prison," preacher Fuad al-Hanjari told tens of thousands of
activists after funerals for four out of five protesters killed by
plainclothes gunmen in the capital on Thursday.
"The squares will remain our homes until we accomplish our goals -- the
exit of all the regime's remnants and building a new Yemen," he said.
The activists said similar protests were held in 17 of the 22 Arabian
Peninsula country's provinces, including two of the most populous --
Taez and Ibb.
They say that Saleh's agreement to hand all "necessary constitutional
powers" to Vice President Abdrabuh Mansur Hadi with immediate effect and
hold office on an honorary basis only for the coming 90 days is not
enough and are demanding the departure of the whole regime.
"We did not start a revolution to keep half of the killers," spokesman
Walid al-Ammari said on the eve of Friday's rally, adding that Hadi, the
low-profile vice president for the past 17 years, is "just another arm
of Saleh."
Saleh, who was still in Saudi Arabia after Wednesday's signing of the
exit plan drafted by his impoverished country's wealthy Gulf neighbours,
condemned Thursday's violence by his loyalists and ordered an
The 69-year-old, who sustained serious blast wounds in a June bombing of
his residence and has already received extensive treatment in Saudi
Arabia, is to stay in Riyadh for medical tests, Yemeni Foreign Minister
Abu Bakr al-Kurbi told the kingdom's Al-Watan daily.
"No specific date date has been set for his departure, as this depends
on the results which will determine if he will be treated in the kingdom
or in the United States," Kurbi told the newspaper.
"If the results are reassuring, he will return to Yemen."
UN chief Ban Ki-moon, whose Yemen envoy Jamal Benomar was instrumental
in persuading Saleh to sign the Gulf transition plan after months of
prevarication, had said he expected the president to travel to New York
for treatment.
Tens of thousands of Saleh's supporters held a massive
counter-demonstration on the capital's Sabiin Avenue Friday demanding
change "only through the ballot box" -- a constant refrain of the
president during his long months of refusal to sign up to the exit plan.
But analysts said that the numbers taking part on both sides were down
on previous Fridays -- the traditional day of prayer and protest in
Muslim Yemen -- as the silent majority watched to see how the transition
deal plays out.
Fierce clashes erupted in the capital before dawn between dissident
troops of the First Armoured Brigade led by General Ali Mohsen al-Ahmar
and members of the central security services commanded by Saleh's nephew
Yehya, residents said.
The mortar and machinegun exchanges broke out outside the residence of
Vice President Hadi, who assumed Saleh's executive powers under the
transition deal.
The fighting, which spread to the heart of the capital, lasted more than
two hours. There was no word on any casualties.
Saleh's long equivocation over signing the transition deal, which the
opposition first signed back in April, saw the protests slide into
deadly clashes between loyalist and dissident troops and tribesmen that
have riven the capital and left the armed forces deeply divided.
Besides Yehya, the president's son Ahmed commands the Republican Guards
and Tariq, another nephew, controls the presidential guard.
But two major army divisions -- one in Sanaa and one in Taez -- rallied
to the opposition and have fought repeated battles against Saleh's
loyalists, leaving scores dead.
Under the Riyadh deal, Hadi is charged with forming a committee to
oversee the reunification of the security forces within 90 days, one of
the biggest challenges facing the transition.

Metabolic Syndrome
Related Media: What is Metabolic Syndrome?
The metabolic syndrome is not a disease, but rather a group of risk factors for heart disease.
Elevated blood pressure, abnormal lipid levels, large waistline and a high fasting blood glucose level are all risk factors that can make up metabolic syndrome. According to the American Heart Association, metabolic syndrome affects 35% of adults in the United States. It is important to be tested for these risk factors and have them managed because they put you at a higher risk for a number of serious conditions, including type 2 diabetes, heart disease, heart attack, and stroke.

In order to make the Best Products list, a moisturizer must NOT be packaged in a jar and have a state-of-the-art formula that:
Regardless of your skin type (more on that below) or texture preference, all of the moisturizers on the Best Products list meet the formulary requirements mentioned above.
What remains offensive, however, is that most of the moisturizer formulations don't warrant their outlandish claims, ridiculous prices, or your belief that you've finally found the fountain of youth. No moisturizer, regardless of claims will "eliminate wrinkle," "lift sagging skin," "restore youthful contours," or "make you look years younger."
What each will do, to some degree, is restore a healthy barrier (essential for allowing skin to repair itself and generate new collagen), reduce inflammation, help prevent (not completely eliminate) free-radical damage, restore vital elements needed to maintain healthy skin, and create a feeling of smoothness and softness that most will find aesthetically pleasing. A great moisturizer can do a lot to fight multiple signs of aging, but it cannot replace cosmetic corrective procedures or the need for daily sun protection, exfoliation, and other critical aspects of skin care.
Moisturizers for oily skin are difficult to evaluate. As a rule, if oily skin is not being irritated or assaulted with harsh skin-care products, it does not need a moisturizer. Lotions and creams in general can be problematic for oily skin; even gels and serum-type moisturizers can feel heavy on oily skin though without question these lightweight textures are preferred for oily skin.
Those with oily skin should stick with ultra-light serums, gel-textured moisturizers, or toners, which should supply all the hydration and important ingredients oily skin needs. Keep in mind that when a lotion or cream-textured moisturizer is labeled as being for someone with oily or combination skin, it is meant to be used only over dry areas, not over oily areas.
Packaging is a big deal for state-of-the-art moisturizers, and we're not talking about visual appeal (though this entices many a consumer and fashion magazine editor). Rather, we're referring to the need for opaque, non-jar packaging that demonstrates the manufacturer has made efforts to ensure the continuing potency of the key ingredients, particularly antioxidants and plant extracts, after you start using the product.
Almost without exception, antioxidants are prone to degradation when repeatedly exposed to light and air (the manner in which they work to protect our skin bears this out). It is thus very disappointing to report that hundreds of the moisturizers reviewed on this site did not make the Best Products list and were not rated a "Best" solely because of clear or jar packaging.
The other issue with using a moisturizer packaged in a jar is that you're repeatedly dipping your fingers into it, which isn't most hygienic way to take care of your skin, not to mention the bacteria transferred with each use further degrades important ingredients.
Lastly, keep in mind that the only difference between daytime and nighttime moisturizers is that the daytime version should contain a sunscreen rated SPF 15 or greater (and include one or more of these UVA-protecting active ingredients: avobenzone, titanum dioxide, zinc oxide, Mexoryl SX, or Tinosorb).

Finding Apartments for Rent in Washington, D.C.
Washington, D.C. is home to a varied and unique population that offers something for everyone. From the politicians to the local student populations, the apartment options are as varied as as the people who live in them. There are a number of different neighborhoods in the city, each offering an individual character and particular benefits. Apartment options range from studios to more luxurious suites with several bedrooms. In addition to standard apartment criteria, new residents should also investigate features such as parking or proximity to metro services and mass transportation, which can be very valuable in the city.
Top Neighborhoods in Washington, D.C.
Capitol Heights, which offers beautiful residences near the center of town, has a number of apartment buildings near the eastern portion of the neighborhood. It is near Union Station, which offers easy transportation throughout the city and even to the rest of the region. Petworth is another popular area, with plenty of family friendly parks, easy transportation, and new commercial development gives the area an up-and-coming feel. Cleveland Park is also popular. While the nearest metro is a twenty minute walk, there are plenty of bus stops and things to do in the area, including American University, the National Cathedral, and popular eateries. Venturing into nearby Georgetown offers plenty to see, eat, and shop as well.
Cultural Attractions in Washington, D.C.
As the nation's capital, Washington, D.C. offers a variety of cultural things to see and do. The Smithsonian museums are always free, and offer art, cultural history, national history, aviation, and more. Many visitors find they can return time and again to these museums and find something new. The National Zoo is immensely popular on nice days, and visitors love to try and see the pandas.
There are also the famous national monuments and landmarks, such as the Washington Monument, the Lincoln Memorial, the World War II Memorial, and the Jefferson Memorial. The Vietnam Memorial is famous for the the intense emotion it can elicit and the Korean War Veterans Memorial lends itself to reflection as well. Just outside of the city, visitors and locals alike will venture to Arlington National Cemetery to commemorate and thank the generations of soldiers who have passed while defending this nation. The Tomb of the Unknown Soldier continues to be regularly guarded.
The political sites of the capital city will take several days themselves to see. The Capitol Building and the White House are excellent photo opportunities. The National Archives house pieces like the Declaration of Independence as well. Those who look to spend time in nature despite being in the busy city can venture to the Botanical Gardens or the Arboretum for some time admiring more natural wonders. Throughout the year there are also various performances, from concerts to live performances, at the Kennedy Center. Living in Washington, D.C. means never having to struggle to come up with educational or enriching activities to do.
Dining in Washington, D.C.
Washington, D.C. is a metropolitan area with a diverse population, all of whom have brought their local cuisines to the area. The cultural landscape of the city includes a number of immigrants from Ethiopia, which means that the city and surrounding areas are home to a number of excellent restaurants that offer this type of food. Other popular types of food include India, found at places such as Rasika; Spanish food, which is found at a number of tapas restaurants and popular places like Estudio; and Chinese food, thanks to the area's Chinatown. The proximity to Maryland and the coast means that seafood remains immensely popular with the locals. City staples, like Ben's Chili Bowl, continue to be sought after for some hearty, delicious food. There are also a number of quality wine bars, steakhouses, and restaurants with a traditional American menu.
Transportation Options in Washington, D.C.
For those living within the immediate D.C. metro area, the city has a reliable metro system that stretches into neighboring areas, such as Silver Spring, Maryland, and Northern Virginia. It is worth noting, however, that the metro is only open from 5 am - 12 am during the week and 7 am - 3 am on the weekends, so those who work odd hours or are planning on spend the night on the town must plan accordingly. While the metro tends to be relatively convenient in the downtown areas, the further one gets from the center of the city, the more spread out the stops tend to be. This can make it difficult for some people to reach the nearest metro station without a second form of transportation. The city also offers a thorough bus system, which claims to be one of the busiest in the country. Often people who cannot reach a metro stop easily can use the bus to get where they are looking to go or use the bus to reach the metro station itself.
Those who live further from the city have the option of commuter trains. Union Station is serviced by Amtrak, Maryland's MARC trains, and Virginia's VRE. From Union Station, commuters can reach a variety of government buildings, or take the metro or buses that service the station. Those looking for a more personalized mode of transportation, can also use taxis. While many people do drive within the city, finding free parking spot is often impossible, and paid parking can get very expensive.

Not everyone is out with a good cause during the holidays and there are a number of ways for consumers to protect themselves.
Cleveland Police Chief Charles "Buster" Bingham said it all begins with self-awareness.
"During the holiday season shoppers need to pay extra attention to their surroundings," he said. "Usually around this time of year car and home burglaries increase.
"People need to remain aware to better protect themselves and their property."
Bingham said leaving valuables in cars should be a last resort and especially don't leave them visible.
"Park in well lit spaces and try to shop in groups when possible," he added. "If you see a suspicious person or vehicle, get as much information as you can — what clothing the person is wearing, height, weight, make, model, color and tag numbers."
The chief also recommended keeping keys handy before leaving the store for easy access to vehicles, protecting wallets and purses, not shopping with large wads of cash and not wearing expensive jewelry.
"There's no reason to draw extra attention to oneself while out shopping."
Here are a few more tips on remaining safe during the holiday season:
• Shop during daylight hours whenever possible. If shopping at night is a must, go with a friend or family member.
• Dress casually and comfortably.
• Even when rushed and thinking about many things, stay alert to surroundings.
• Keep cash in front pockets.
• Notify the credit card issuer immediately if credit cards are lost, stolen or misused. • Avoid overloading with packages. It is important to have clear visibility and freedom of motion to avoid mishaps.
• Beware of strangers approaching for any reason. At this time of year, "con-artists" may try various methods of distraction with the intention of taking money or belongings.
Bingham also said home burglaries tend to go up at this time of the year, and it takes a community effort to help keep these incidents down.
"It's a very good idea for neighborhoods to activate a neighborhood watch program," Bingham said. "It makes it a lot easier for the police department to be proactive and reactive.
"Criminals are less likely to commit a crime in a neighborhood where they know if someone sees anything out of the ordinary, they will report it."
Combating those with poor intentions requires a communal effort.
"If everyone remains vigilant and watches out for each other, we'll eliminate a lot of problems," said Bingham.
"And if you do run into a problem, notify the police immediately — don't wait two hours because you're hesitant."
For more information on starting a neighborhood watch, contact the Cleveland Police Department at 662-843-3611.

Train like an Olympian Tom Daley. The youngest ever British World Champion in any sport reveals his nutritional and training regime :: Men's Health
He is so cute!! Love him!!
Tom just tweeted he got his Olympic tattoo! A picture is on the way. Hope it's a tramp stamp! Lol
he said months ago that it would be the Olympic rings- his mom gave it to him as an 18th b'day gift- approval/pay for, to get after games.
Way too big thank God its inside the bicep thought he was gonna do a small one in colour, hope it doesnt spoil future photos
I agree its too big, but I don't think I'll notice it too much. I just get too distracted by his eyes, smile, tan, abs, ass, bulge, hairy legs, accent, laugh, etc. Did I leave anything out?
Such a nice ass & excellent hairy legs on such a cute lad ... Tom is perfection.
I dont think it is a permanent tatoo I think it is a transfer you can see a cling film type material on it... fakes were good, but knew he was holding the little towel thing they use and not his suit in them.... he seems to be a lovely fellow and I hope he never spoils and I hope the trolls say well clear of him, he does not deserve it...
he says on twitter it's a real tattoo- planning it since May
Hot but so very dull, such is always the case....
I love Tom Dale so much, he is such an inspiration! P.S he is never dull
he does seem to be getting more and more 'programmed' if you will- more posed than spontaneous.
^ I have to agree with that. Tom is my favorite human being alive, but he tends to answer questions the exact same. However, there are other videos of him acting quite spontaneous and random. His YouTube page tvtomdaley has a lot of fun videos of him traveling around the world for training and competitions. Granted, he's underage in almost every video there since he turned 18 like 5 minutes ago. But they are a lot of fun
@ #186
what does Tom say in that clip at 0.20?
from faraon
Hot fake
at 20 seconds he says , 'UR- The invite I got says smart casual...' if it's the ur you're talking about,,,either ur or wor/wol- kinda of a combo of well ah maybe... like the American, 'Ummm or Ahhh....'
Well the invite I got says Smart Casual, to be exact.

What does everyone think about about the latest buzz surrounding Tom and Kassidy Cook? I notice that Yahoo and MSM both carried this photo Photo by tomdaley1994 • Instagram along with editorial about them being a 'hot' celeb couple... Amusingly, many of the comments are along the lines of 'but I thought he was gay'...
Personally, I don't know if Tom is or isn't gay, but I'm hoping that this isn't Tom's management company going full tilt with some kind of Public Relations campaign following his mum's comment that "he's never had a proper girlfriend (that I know of anyway)." That said, Tom has always said that they're just good friends, and he doesn't strike me as being someone who would allow himself to be manipulated in this way. Thoughts?

Tom's managaement is based in the United Arab Emirates- not exactly a spot for liberal thought on being gay....neither Tom or Kassidy has never said they were a couple- Tom's teammate, Tonia Couch did...but Tom and Kassidy have been out and about a lot together lately- he said in ALL his pre Olympic interviews, he was too busy for a girlfriend (long held as closet double speak by most gays)...Of course, he could be denying/not talking about the realtionship as to not cause millions of 14 year old girls to slit their wrists....if you see pics of them together (not sure if can post- she may still be 17), anytime Tom has his arm around her, it looks awkward or posed...of course, he's spent the better part of the last POSING it may just be second nature by now....he DOES come off as gay- I say that using gaydar- not wishful thinking!!! Having a girlfriend at 18 isn't a big deal- A LOT of us gay boys- including myself had one- my prom date was a knock out!
christ, it's bad enuf he looks like my cuz w/o glasses, now the pix w/glasses!! now he looks exactly like my cuz.
yes, my cousin is gay...no, i have no desire to fuck him...but i definitely would boink TD!!!!

Hi, Ivor here.
I like to make mildly erotic videos about how great it is to get fucked.
I came (in more ways than one) across a VERY provocative photo that Tom Daley uploaded to Twitter.... and had to make this vid.
Hope u like
I'm glad he can have fun with his fame.. the kid is so good looking and he must have a good solid thick cock, would be my guess..I wish there were better close up pic's of his feet they gotta be cute..
HIs "I'm sexy and I know it" spoof is pretty good..
You cant change the way the wind blow's, but you can change the angle of your sail to take you somewhere else!!
Terrible and hilarious at the same time.
I'm kinda obsesses with Tom so obviously I found your video hilarious and amazing. Every time I see a pic of him, which is multiple times a day, I'm stunned at his beauty and charm. Off to go die in a hole because I'll never be with him...
VIDEO Made when Tom was only 17 and Jack Laugher (Blonde guy) was 16-

President/CEO, The Executives' Club of Chicago
When I read Nancy Drew books as a kid (I think there were 50), I was only interested in solving Nancy's mysteries. But her work ethic, curiosity and collaborative problem solving was unconsciously inspirational.
Years later, as I built organizational teams, I came to appreciate the importance of those qualities. I learned that hiring a candidate with the perfect résumé (years of work experience in the same job or industry) can be less effective than finding someone with an essential capacity to learn, grow, adapt and collaborate to reach goals. I often use unconventional interviewing questions to detect such attributes, and I've discovered some common traits of successful individuals in the process.
I ask: "Were you in Girl Scouts or team sports?" or "Have you ever played an instrument?" A high percentage of business leaders were Scouts, athletes or musicians, where they learned how hard work yielded results like badges, victories and beautiful music. Teamwork, discipline and follow-through don't come naturally. Only experience teaches the benefits of hard work and the satisfaction of achievement.
"What do you read?" gives insight to one's intellectual curiosity, scope and vocabulary. Many women leaders read Nancy Drew books as young girls. Perhaps the perseverance and problem-solving skills Nancy relied on to solve mysteries inspired those same traits.
Hiring the best talent does not ensure team performance. Organizational success requires collaboration – a recruitment of 'individual performers' who'll engage with their team and peers to achieve goals. Successful leaders in business, government and academia build collaborative cultures that appreciate the perspectives of their employees, customers, suppliers, community and even competitors.
When I worked in the high tech industry in the '80s at Arrow Electronics, UDS/Motorola, and SynOptics Communications, we embraced 'coopetition,' recognizing the need to simultaneously cooperate and compete with industry peers.
Collaboration is also required for good government. I was fortunate to serve in the U.S. Congress (2005-2011) during a briefly functional period in Washington. As a centrist, I was proud to work with Presidents Bush and Obama on issues of common ground and respectfully disagreeing in other cases. We worked to pass legislation of merit, not along party lines.
Few collaborative centrists remain, which contributes to the current ideological gridlock. If the electorate, particularly during primaries, were to make 'collaborative' a requirement for candidates they'd support, Washington would demonstrate greater respect and better results.
In sports, superstars like Derrick Rose can return from a long recovery to a 'still winning' Chicago Bulls because his teammates have followed his example of unselfish devotion to team success. Coach Thibodeau's team, especially the bench mob, is always exciting because you never know who'll be the star of the night. What you do know is there'll be more assists (and rebounds) than on other teams.
When I became the CEO of The Executives' Club of Chicago in 2011, we were celebrating the Club's 100th Anniversary. Few organizations have achieved that milestone, and I was proud to assume the helm of this venerable institution.
Reflecting on the long-standing mission of the Club to connect Chicago's business, civic and academic leaders, it's clear that collaboration of our executive membership has been the key to the Club's success. Our membership is comprised of leaders of multibillion-dollar corporations as well as emerging small and mid-tier entities. What they have in common is the desire to share best practices and thought leadership. They learn from one another and from global leaders like Condoleezza Rice. Our Club benefits from the talented executives who share their expertise, insights and personal stories. And Chicago benefits greatly from this collaborative spirit that makes our community stronger.

The Global Intelligence Files
On Monday February 27th, 2012, WikiLeaks began publishing The Global Intelligence Files, over five million e-mails from the Texas headquartered "global intelligence" company Stratfor. The e-mails date between July 2004 and late December 2011. They reveal the inner workings of a company that fronts as an intelligence publisher, but provides confidential intelligence services to large corporations, such as Bhopal's Dow Chemical Co., Lockheed Martin, Northrop Grumman, Raytheon and government agencies, including the US Department of Homeland Security, the US Marines and the US Defence Intelligence Agency. The emails show Stratfor's web of informers, pay-off structure, payment laundering techniques and psychological methods.
[CT] US/AUSTRALIA/CT - Secret document found in a gutter

Secret document found in a gutter
A SECRET booklet describing Barack Obama's Australian schedule down to the
minute, as well as the breakdown of his security convoy and the mobile
numbers of dozens of senior US and Australian officials, was found by the
Herald lying on a Canberra street yesterday morning.
The loss, a significant and hugely embarrassing security slip-up, will
leave a sour final note to what was an otherwise positive two days for the
Gillard government.
The booklet, Overall Program and Orders of Arrangements, for the US
President's visit, was found by this reporter in a gutter about 100 metres
from the entrance to Parliament House.
Advertisement: Story continues below
Program for the State Visit to Australia by President of the United States
Barack Obama.
The lost document ... slip-up.
Last night a top security analyst, Alan Dupont, said the find was far more
than embarrassing. It represented a significant security breach.
''If that had got into the wrong hands it would certainly put the
President and some of his entourage at risk, if someone could respond
quickly enough to having the information,'' said Professor Dupont, the
Michael Hintze Chair of International Security at Sydney University.
''Even if you were an ordinary crim, there would be a market for that kind
of book, so it's not good news.''
The 125-page booklet is classified ''in confidence'' and its cover states
its content ''is not to be communicated either directly or indirectly to
any person not authorised to receive it''.
More than 120 pages are dedicated to minute by minute descriptions of Mr
Obama's schedule, and even describe which limousine door the President
will enter and exit.
''On a signal from the presidential advance agents, the Prime Minister,
[the Australian ambassador to the US, Kim] Beazley and [US ambassador to
Australia Jeffrey] Bleich alight from their vehicles,'' the booklet states
for the event at the Darwin RAAF base yesterday afternoon.
It also lists the seating arrangements for the presidential
motorcade. It gives a breakdown of Mr Obama's secret service presidential
protective division, including its ''counter-assault teams'', a ''comms
vehicle'', an ''intel car'' and the ''hammer truck''. Hammer stands for
''hazardous agent mitigation medical emergency response''.
The Secret Service team provides emergency medical and chemical attack
treatment and keeps equipment used for forcing entry and for rescue.
The counter-assault teams, or CATs, are five-person units of men or women
with a military or police background. Their job is to use heavy weapons on
attackers and allow the president to escape with his suit-wearing secret
service agents.
