Certificate in Entrepreneurship and Innovation Student to Appear on ABC's 'Shark Tank'
September 25, 2009
WEST LAFAYETTE, Ind. - Sawyer Sparks, a senior in the Purdue University College of Agriculture and creator of a soy-based modeling dough, will appear on the ABC show "Shark Tank" in an attempt to convince a panel of judges to financially back his invention.
The episode of the show featuring Sparks will air at 8 p.m. EST on Tuesday (Sept. 29).
Soy-Yer Dough, the first and only patented wheat-free modeling dough, was inspired by one of Sparks' favorite Purdue professors and her daughter, who both suffer from Celiac disease, a wheat allergy.
Sparks participated in the Certificate in Entrepreneurship and Innovation Program at Purdue's Burton D. Morgan Center for Entrepreneurship.
"This professor had been an inspiration for me," said Sparks, an agricultural economics student from Bloomfield, Ind. "I set out to help her child, who could not play with the famous modeling dough that we all grew up with. The leading modeling clay, which contains wheat, causes children with an aversion to wheat to feel completely left out."
The dough created by Sparks is colorful, gluten-free, non-toxic and scented. And for those who have soy allergies, Soy-Yer Dough also is available in a soy-free version.
A few months back, Sparks, who creates Soy-Yer Dough in his mother's kitchen, received an e-mail informing him of a casting call for a new reality TV show called "Shark Tank." The premise of the show is for entrepreneurs to pitch their business ideas to five well-known, self-made millionaires.
"I received the information about the show on a Thursday, and the casting call was that Saturday, so I didn't have much time to prepare," Sparks said. "I had no idea what the casting call would be like. I just guessed it would be like 'American Idol' or something. It turned out to be a ton of fun. I met several business owners from all over the place who came because this was the last chance for their businesses. For me, however, this was just the beginning."
After a few agonizing days of anticipation, Sparks got a phone call asking him to appear on the show.
"I couldn't wish for anything better," Sparks said. "I've had the mindset that no matter what happens on 'Shark Tank,' I will always be an entrepreneur and I will always continue striving for my goals. I still have that mindset today."
Soy-Yer Dough is already available to the public. It is being used in many schools and also is available for organizations to use as a fundraiser. The product can be purchased for $2 at http://www.soy-yer.com.
"This just inspires me more to have my own commercials advertising my business so that every household, daycare and school can experience the benefits of choosing Soy-Yer Dough, allowing every child to finally create their own imaginary worlds," he said.

Dear members,
Thank you, NarutoBase Staff
Look at the mangastream translation. They were sensing Naruto's chakra.
How can it be Naruto? So you're telling me Naruto's the one who knows everything? No way man. Naruto doesn't know shit, plus he would've just said Naruto, and not beat around the bush.
It was Narutos Chakra that they felt - Kurama told Naruto that he "CHANGED" Narutos chakra. and Since Hinata was already in contact with Naruto, she instantly felt it, and after Narutos clones came into contact with a ton of other Shinobi, it made the Chakra mass even more large, and thus - Orochimaru and Sasuke & Company was able to feel it.

Like I said, look at the mangastream translation. The chakra they sensed wasn't from the person they are looking for. What they were surprised was that they could feel Naruto's chakra that far out and that it was in fact Naruto's.

" Derp derp Deeerp Sasuke Derp"
The chakra of an entirely different shinobi or entity
Why does this thread even exist? It's so incredibly stupid. Orochimaru straight up says right in our FACES "Everybody senses the incredible chakra, it's annoying Sasuke... Naruto-kun..." OROCHIMARU SAYS THIS. Now shut this f**king thread down right now please.
[QUOTE=Miyata;9898965]{SPOILER} I BELIEVE THAT SASUKE AND OROCHIMARU WAS sensing Naruto's Chakra :D.... what do you think?
Mangastream translation says it's Naruto's.
yhr power of the juubi or Naruto
I think they felt Naruto's (Nine Tails) chakra as well. Think about it Naruto basically just gave the whole army Kyubi chakra not much else could compete with that.
seriously guys...sasuke n oro r headin to e 1 who 'knws it all'...wel i tik its frm wher dey r goin n i tik it wil b samtn abt e 1st hokage
This is valid or maybe juubi's chakra is starting to resonate :D
Well i will wait 2 know
i though it was obviuse that it was narutos chakra why els would saskue get annoyed
:y, Sasuke's gonna get pummelled :rofl:
Does it need to be clarified 100 times that the chakra was Narutos?
I cant understand how blind and senseless human beings can be from the day they where born.
Insight and observations skills are neccesary to even start reading a Manga.
Without these skills reading a Manga can become boring and even confusing at some times.
The current problem we are facing over here is :
I read the Mangapanda version before Mangastream one.
But it took me 3 seconds to understand that it was Naruto mentioned there since the page after that - Is orochimaru ending hes sentence = By the Idea being , that Sasuke is Disturbed by Narutos Overwhelming Chakra wat is felt practically hundreds of miles away.
But I find it strange why this Thread excist?
Since this Thread brings about a large confusion and senseless bashing on NB members and in the end the Thread will be like a messed up LSD trip talking to flowers in the Garden or something like that.

DISGRACE: Ethelda Burke, the Tukwila School District Superintendent, resigned after nine district employees filed racial discrimination complaints against her. Two staff members at Showalter Middle School accused Burke, who is black, of referring to them as "slaves" while another employee said she criticized him for turning the district into a "ghetto" by hiring too many black staff. The allegations carry a lot of weight because the accusers include vice principals, teachers and dispatchers in the Tukwile School District, located near Seattle, Washington.

Slimmers' Scrambled Eggs
Serves 2
|2 eggs, lightly beaten
|2 tablespoons milk
|1 level tablespoon fresh snipped chives
|salt and freshly milled black pepper
|Oven temperatures and Conversions
|Click here for information
|Equipment: You will also need a Delia Online/Silverwood Little Gem 'Sauce' Pan (heavy gauge aluminium) or similar
This recipe is adapted from Delia's Complete How To Cook
First the pan goes onto a medium heat.
Season the lightly beaten eggs with salt and pepper.
Then add the milk to moisten the pan, whirling it around the edges.
Add the eggs and, using a pointed wooden spoon, briskly stir backwards and forwards through the liquid egg. Keep on scrambling until three-quarters of the egg is a creamy, solid mass and a quarter is still liquid.
Now add the chives and continue to scramble, then remove the pan from the heat and continue scrambling until no liquid egg is left.
Serve immediately, as the egg will continue to harden.

because I can move the main app to SD to save space without losing the widget -- BUT, while I'm sure the fact that the widget is standalone is great for some (like anyone who can't pay for the main app), it also means the widget is a space hog too! Why not add an option or separate version that lets the widget use the crystal data and pictures from the main app? (And, as others have mentioned, use

Unplanned, Unforgettable Moments in Peru/
By Leah Crowe, SEEtheWILD Intern
I am a graduate student in the Global Field Program (GFP) and am required to participate in three Earth Expeditions (EE) field courses located in conservation hotspots across the globe. My most recent experience was in the Peruvian Amazon, where I joined more than 20 other students, instructors, guides and experts at the Casa Ita research station along the banks of the Madre de Díos River.
While our itinerary was planned far in advance of our arrival, we were still blessed with the unexpected on a daily basis. While participating in a lesson to learn how to identify and count birds by their calls, we were interrupted by noises high up in the canopy. Expecting to see a bird or monkey, we were delighted to see an arboreal anteater (Tamandua tetradactyla) searching for breakfast high above our heads. Needless to say that our lesson was put on hold for a few minutes as we gazed and awed at this, dare I say "extremely cute", creature until it ambled higher into the canopy and out of sight. The best thing about this experience is that it was okay for the entire class to be distracted by something wonderful and our distraction only helped to enhance our experience.
One evening, while hanging out in the common room, our guides beckoned us outside. A rainbow boa (Epicrates cenchria) had ambled into our camp. It was a gorgeous snake and it allowed us to take many pictures before sliding off into the night. This moment was completely unexpected, yet it still resonates in my memory as one of my favorite moments of the trip.
A few days into our Amazon experience, we got up very early and traveled down river for an hour or so. We exited the boats at a rather non-descript section of the river bank. An informative, wooden sign told us that the property that we were entering was nationally protected land, the famous Tambopata National Reserve.
We began to walk down a well-worn path and onto a well-maintained boardwalk that stretched over an expanse of marshland. Above our heads, red howler monkeys (Alouatta seniculus) followed us high above by moving from branch to branch. For many of us, it was the first time we had seen an primate in the wild and this experience was almost surreal. They were much larger than I had expected, deep red, and very graceful for their size. I was mesmerized and could have watched them for hours, but we had a long journey to complete to reach our destination, the amazing Lake Sandoval.
Lake Sandoval is an oxbow lake, formed when a tight bend in the river becomes blocked which causes the water to back up and form a lake. Over time, the lake will become cut off completely from the rest of the river and form a natural lake. According to the sign and the start of the path, we had four and one half kilometers to hike before reaching our destination. However, it would not be an easy hike. The path was covered in mud in many places and this mud was very sticky. Several of my travel companions slipped in and lost a shoe or boot in its muddy grasp which required quite a bit of finesse to retrieve.
However, in spite of the heat and the difficult terrain, there were amazing sites around every bend: Giant ceiba trees with trunks that looked like they were formed from cement and tops that stretched unbelievably high; the glorious morpho butterfly whose deep blue color stood out in stark contrast to the crimson hues of the muddy trail; and the endless calls of birds that watched from the trees high above our heads.
By the time we reached our final destination or at least, what we thought was our final destination, we were hot, tired and dusty, yet we were in for another amazing surprise. What awaited us was like something from a story book. In a shady corner of the trail, across from a tree full of tiny, chattering monkeys, alongside a sturdy dock, were long narrow boats, each with its own "boatsman" waiting to take us to our hotel where we would spend the night. Throughout the hours of the hike through the jungle path, I had no idea that our hotel was located across the great lake and a lovely boat ride awaited us to take us there. Even though this was technically planned in advance, it was unexpected to me and what a joy in turned out to be!
We entered our boats and quietly began to make our way through the shaded, jungle mangroves. All of a sudden the jungle undergrowth cleared and before us stretched the magnificent waters of Lake Sandoval. It was an awe-inspiring sight. To the right we saw the palms that are home to the most famous birds of the area, the macaws. You could hear their chatter as the wind carried it across the smooth water as to our left a huge shore bird took flight without making a sound. It seemed as if we had entered paradise.
I would love to tell you all about our amazing experience at Lake Sandoval, but that story warrants a blog entry of its own. There were so many amazing experiences throughout my time Peru that I will highlight in future blogs, but the lesson I learned from this adventure is one of the most valuable of my life: "Don't get angry or frustrated when your carefully laid plans are interrupted. Enthusiastically embrace the unexpected and enjoy the moment. You never know when an unexpected moment will turn out to be your favorite memory."

Product Description
Drawing from his published works, series editor Henry French here selects 40 inspiring passages from Palmer's writings that reflect Palmer's spiritual journey and invites readers to explore their own spirituality under the guidance of this noted author, educator, and activist.
When the 40-day journey is over, it will no longer be the guide's description of the journey that stirs the reader's longing for God, but rather the reader's experience of the journey that grounds her or his faith and life.
40-Day Journey with Parker J. Palmer opens with a short introduction to the life of Parker Palmer and then offers forty chapters, each of which includes a reading from his writings, related Scripture passages, questions to ponder, journal-reflection exercises, and a prayer. The book also includes helps on how to use the book and hints on keeping a journal along with ideas for further reading. Each chapter in the book includes space for notes.

Medal Count for Openly Gay & Lesbian Athletes
August 13, 2012 by Maureen McCarty, HRC Associate Director of Digital Media
Of this year's 23 openly gay and lesbian Olympians, 10 took home seven medals.
Here's the breakdown:
- Seimone Augustus of U.S. Women's Basketball team
- Carl Hester of Great Britain's Dressage team
- Marilyn Agliotti, Carlien Dirkse van den Heuvel, Kim Lammers and Maartje Paumen of Netherlands' field hockey team. (These four players' medals are counted as one in the overall medal count.)
- Megan Rapinoe of U.S. Women's soccer team
- Judith Arndt of Germany's cycling team, who was the first of the 23 to medal.
- Edward Gal of Netherlands' dressage team
- Lisa Raymond of U.S. tennis team
LGBT Olympians are teammates and competitors first and foremost, but they are also highly visible role models who send a powerful message to LGBT youth and all who watch the games that LGBT people can compete, win and inspire just like anyone else.

Gas or electric hedge trimmer
I have a need for a 30" hedge trimmer and have looked at the Little Wonder electric model. I can buy it for $249.
I am concerned that electric might not be powerful enough but they did not have a gasoline powered unit in stock.
Is there much difference in power between these units? Either one would be acceptable if the power is equal.
Any other brand would be OK too but so far, all I have looked at with a 30" blade is the Litle Wonder. Home Depot has some to but their blades are much shorter.
Little Wonder trimmers have long been considered the way to go for commercial users who need an electric. Most electrics have very small teeth to prevent overloading their weak motors. You'll notice the Little Wonder has gas powered sized teeth and that's because they can handle it.
Here's another perspective/experience. As a home owner, over 5 acres and at least 3 acres that get some attention I have three hedge trimmers. One 18VDC and one 115VAC, and one gas, 2-cycle, powered. I don't have more than $200 invested in the whole set of three. Now none are commercial units, but so what? I'm not in the business of trimming hedges, and estimate the units sit in the garage/shed 99% of the time. Hum, lets see if that's a reasonable estimate: that computes to be about 80 hours per year, so the units sit on the shelf much longer, more like 99.9% of the time. I expect they'll last several years each.
I have 115VAC exterior outlets front and back of my house, so with an extension cord of about 50' I can reach everything around the house, that's the most of it. I then go to the 18VDC for light work away from the house, and go to the gas unit for heavy work (e.g., cutting into old wild rose bushes, and the like). So, my recommendation is for residential private use I'd spend under $200 and get both electric (either of both DC/AC) and gas powered.
I have been using a "commercial" electric B&D for several years and it is just not strong enough for my needs. I have to cut heavy branchs with a pruner frequently in order to be able to finish my cutting.
The point about how often these things sit unused is a good one and is a good reason to consider a cheaper cutter if I can find one that cuts heavy branches.
I personally think dragging a cord is troublesome. I have not use electric lawn stuff, I use a lot of power tools. It was so inconvenient to drag a cord that I switched to all battery tools. A cord can catch on something and you have to stop all the time to unjam!!!
I would get commercial grade tool. My experience is they are a lot easier to use, last longer. If weight is a concern, there are two ways, 1) Look at Redmax CHT2200 less than 10 lbs. Stihl HS81 11.5 lbs. etc.
Or the second way...Start pumping weight!!!!!!
I have used a Little Wonder electric trimmer for many years. It certainly has all the power you would need from the motor. Because my hedges got to be 12 feet high, I finally had to buy a STIHL KM110R powerhead to drive an extended trimmer. This way I an reach to the top while standing on the ground. I still use the Little Wonder for my smaller shrubs. I don't think you can find a better electric one. Charles Ranheim
Could look on the web I suppose, but I ask here for general interest use: cranheim, who makes "Little Wonder", not a name I recognize.
My 18VDC unit is Homelite, seems pretty good, but the OEM battery was short lived, maybe worked for part of a second year. Happily the Roybi (spelling) battery is the same physically (suppose the same mfg) and they are available from Home Depot for something like $20 each in pairs (two packs). I don't remember the exact cost, but it was low enough for me to scrap the idea of rebuilding the Homelite OEMs.
My 115VAC unit was purchased from Walmart, a B&D I think. Nothing fancy, but works fine for me, but neither will cut a stem over about 1/2", I haven't tested but know/remember that I am limited in how deep I cut because of the branch size. My gas unit will cut larger stems, haven't given it a maximum size test, but suppose it'll go to 3/4" or a bit more.

And there is an excellent thread here http://forum.xda-developers.com/show....php?t=2684188 about a great app that can fix it.
However, whether you fix your permissions manually, or using this app, there is still a very subtle difference.
I've been using rsync for Android for several years. I have a central Linux server at my house, on which I keep all my files, and I periodically rsync FROM my server, TO my Android Device (in this case, a Galaxy Note 3 SM-900 4G running 4.4.2) to a structure on the external SD card. That way I can keep a local copy of my files with me at all times. I pretty much fill a 64GB SD card this way.
Under 4.3 and earlier, I used /storage/extSdCard (or /mnt/extSdCard ) as my mount point to access my external SD card, and everything worked fine.
However, under KitKat, rsync was having a very strange issue. Attempts to rsync a file would result in:
rsync - failed to set time on file
for any file that it tried to transfer. It seemed like it was transferring the file, but was unable to change the timestamp on the file.
The solution turns out to be visible if you run Android Terminal Emulator and look at the output of the mount command. Tracing through that, I discovered that there is also a less-obvious alternate mount point, which is:
And, indeed, using that as an rsync target solves the timestamp problem.
Felt this should be posted somewhere, hope this is the right place.

Yoshi 3DS XL Confirmed for North American Release
There are no wails of Baby Mario to turn you off from this version of the Nintendo 3DS XL system featuring the Mushroom Kingdom's lead dinosaur.
There are no wails of Baby Mario to turn you off from this version of the Nintendo 3DS XL system featuring the Mushroom Kingdom's lead dinosaur.
We get a sneak peek at three new tracks for Mario's anticipated return to the asphalt in Mario Kart 8.
Nintendo is spreading the Pocket Monster love by offering free downloads of Pokemon X and Y as bonus for buying a Nintendo 3DS along with a specific 3DS title.
Good Smile has long been a favorite of collectible importers here in the States. The company's line of Nendodroids and Figmas are among some of the most desirable at specialty shops, and Good Smile's penchant for dipping into obscure properties (at least in the U.S.) has always made devout fans happy. However, this year, Good Smile is continuing its trend of bringing big time properties to life with new additions from Nintendo and Konami.
The sequel to the Nintendo DS' Pokemon Trozei is shaping up to be quite the candy killer.
The launch trailer for Donkey Kong Country: Tropical Freeze has arrived and it's looking pretty epic.
This sequel to the original Steel Diver is going to be hitting the market sooner than you expect. Even better, it's going to be available for free.
PokeMasters who want to store all of the 3,000 total Pokemon in existence can now do so online and use the Poke Transporter to move their favorite Pokemon of old into Pokemon X/Y.
Everyone has hobbies. Some knit or cross-stitch. Others may like to make model planes or make remixes of their favorite songs. Me? I love to play video games. It was a life-long dream of mine to be featured in a Nintendo game and I can happily say that, after so many years of video game playing, I have one I can call my own!
The Nintendo 3DS had a hell of a 2013, and Nintendo expects 2014 to be just as strong, if not better. With the early release calendar showing some strong titles like Yoshi's New Island, we're inclined to believe they hype.
You thought the Princess of Hyrule would miss out on another big battle in the upcoming Super Smash Bros.? As if.

Top students completing acts of kindness will also earn extra recognition by the Milwaukee Bucks with a free ticket* to the Feb. 9, 2013 game with a special halftime recognition. Please note families will also have the opportunity to purchase additional tickets at a significant discount.
We look forward to working with your school and your students to make the world a kinder place. Remember, participation is limited, so contact us today.

We found this place recommended by TA. Good choice on a Saturday night. The ambiance was was warm, the hostess was very pleasant. We shared calamaris and I had a delicious veal piccata with red wine. My wife enjoyed her salmon salad.
Pizza slices were huge and so delicious. My husband had steak & cheese sub which was good enough to go back for it next day. This will be our regular place to eat
This restaurant is located on West Main Street at the intersection of Wildwood Road, within a half mile of Interstate 81 – Exit 137. I have Lunch here a couple of times a month and have always been pleased with the food and the service. Mama Maria's features a lunch buffet consisting of a typical salad bar, various pasta dishes,...
Great place for pizza by the slice, a calzone, stromboli, and my favorite mussels marinara. Salads are good, and proportionate. Wish they would bring back the pepperoni garlic knots!
Real garlic and oil spaghetti just like in New Jersey and my wife's stromboli was most excellent. It's no garlic power sprinkled here - but sliced and saluted in virgin olive oil and served browned and crispy. Going back this weekend. Service was great and the food was prepared fresh. Going back this weekend!
Went with a group of four this Saturday evening. After a weekend of VA Tech graduations we needed a little later nourishment. Mamas was across the street from our hotel. My wife and I split a Greek salad, and a small prosciutto , mushroom and garlic pizza. One member of party had a Stromboli and the other two had eggplant...
The food here is some of the best Italian I've ever had. It's absolutely amazing. I would recommend this to anyone. Enjoy!
-I go here every week for lunch! Its the best!
-best wings I've had
-nicely priced
-great pizza! My fave is a slice of white (veggie) with a side of sauce

I was so delighted to have found this hotel, which really made my trip,
and I would recommend it to anyone. Perfect location: in a beautiful
area of Venice. Very close (2 mins walk) to vapouretti stop on Grand
canal. Short and lovely boat trip to St Marks Square. So can easily pop
back to hotel during day if need anything. The facilities are very good
- en suite and shared bathrooms spotlessly clean. Shower was good. Beds
are made, which was unexpected, for the price which is very reasonable

Service, service, service! I thought this hotel was a little pricey for what we got (room-wise), but the service was outstanding.
I can honestly say that the coffee & croissants they served were the BEST I've ever tasted, and that includes in Paris. The breakfast room is quite small, but they really make sure you have everything you want, from juice, coffee, toast, fruit, yogurt, etc. to fresh-baked croissants and pastries. Really felt very welcomed and appreciated as a guest.

Social mobility
Historians once believed that the post-Gupta period brought greater rigidity in the caste structure and that this rigidity was partially responsible for the inability of Indians to face the challenge of the Turks. This view is now being modified. The distinctions, particularly between the Brahmans and the other castes, were in theory sharper, but in practice it now appears that social restrictions were not so rigid. Brahmans often lived off the land and founded dynasties. Most of the groups claiming Kshatriya status had only recently acquired it. The conscious reference to being Kshatriya, a characteristic among Rajputs, is a noticeable feature in post-Gupta politics. The fact that many of these dynasties were of obscure origin suggests some social mobility: a person of any caste, having once acquired political power, could also acquire a genealogy connecting him with the traditional lineages and conferring Kshatriya status. A number of new castes, such as the Kayasthas (scribes) and Khatris (traders), are mentioned in the sources of this period. According to the Brahmanic sources, they originated from intercaste marriages, but this is clearly an attempt at rationalizing their rank in the hierarchy. Many of these new castes played a major role in society. The hierarchy of castes did not have a uniform distribution throughout the country. But the preeminent position of the Brahman was endorsed not merely by the fact that many had lands and investments but also by the fact that they controlled education. Formal learning was virtually restricted to the institutions attached to the temples. Technical knowledge was available in the various artisan guilds. Hierarchy existed, however, even among the Brahmans; some Brahman castes, who had perhaps been tribal priests before being assimilated into the Sanskritic tradition, remained ordinary village priests catering to the day-to-day religious functions.
The local nucleus of the new culture led to a large range of religious expression, from the powerful temple religion of Brahmanism to a widespread popular bhakti religion and even more widespread fertility cults. The distinctions between the three were not clearly demarcated in practice; rites and concepts from each flowed into the other. The formal worship of Vishnu and Shiva had the support of the elite. Temples dedicated to Vaishnava and Shaiva deities were the most numerous. But also included were some of the chief deities connected with the fertility cult, and the mother goddesses played an important role. The Puranas had been rewritten to incorporate popular religion; now the upa-puranas were written to record rites and worship of more-localized deities. Among the more-popular incarnations of Vishnu was Krishna, who, as the cowherd deity, accommodated pastoral and erotic themes in worship. The love of Krishna and Radha was expressed in sensitive and passionate poetry.
The introduction of the erotic theme in Hinduism was closely connected with the fertility cult and Tantrism. The latter, named for its scriptures, the Tantras, influenced both Hindu and Buddhist ritual. Tantrism, as practiced by the elite, represented the conversion of a widespread folk religion into a sophisticated one. The emphasis on the mother goddess, related to that expressed in the Shakti (Śakti) cult, strengthened the status of the female deities. The erotic aspect also was related to the importance of ritual coition in some Tantric rites. The depiction of erotic scenes on temple walls therefore had a magico-religious context.
Vajrayana Buddhism, current in eastern India, Nepal, and Tibet, shows evidence of the impact of Tantrism. The goddess Tara emerges as the saviour and is in many ways the Buddhist counterpart of Shakti. Buddhism was on the way out—the Buddha had been incorporated as an avatar of Vishnu—and had lost much of its popular appeal, which had been maintained by the simple habits of the monks. The traditional source of Buddhist patronage had dwindled with declining trade. Jainism, however, managed to maintain some hold in Rajasthan, Gujarat, and Karnataka. The protest aspect of both Buddhism and Jainism, especially the opposition to Brahmanic orthodoxy, had now been taken over by the Tantrists and the bhakti cults. The Tantrists expressed their protest through some rather extreme rites, as did some of the heretical sects such as the Kalamukhas and Kapalikas. The bhakti cults expressed the more-puritanical protest of the urban groups, gradually spreading to the rural areas. Preeminent among the bhakti groups during this period were the Lingayats, or Virashaivas, who were to become a powerful force in Karnataka, and the Pandharpur cult in Maharashtra, which attracted such preachers as Namadeva and Jnaneshvara.

Most new cars today are already install with an automatic transmission but there are still a lot of vehicles today that operates manually. And there are some motorists who still prefers driving a stick shift. The only difference between a VW automatic and manual transmission is the clutch. Basically, the clutch allows engine power to be applied gradually when a vehicle is starting out and interrupts power to avoid gear crunching when shifting. Engaging the clutch allows power to transfer from the engine to the transmission and drive wheels. Disengaging the clutch stops the power transfer and allows the engine to continue turning without force to the drive wheels. To fully understand how the clutch works, one needs to know the basic VW clutch parts. They are the flywheel, clutch disc, pressure plate, throw-out bearing and linkage. The main function of the flywheel is to transfer engine torque from the engine to the transmission. It also has teeth along the circumference, allowing the starter motor to contact when turning the engine over. The VW clutch disc is basically a steel plate, covered with a frictional material that goes between the flywheel and the pressure plate. In the center of the disc is the hub, which is designed to fit over the spines of the input shaft of the transmission. The VW clutch disc directs the flow of power between the engine and the transmission along with the pressure plate and the flywheel. Regular clutch discs are lined with asbestos, the same material that is used in brake shoes and pads to achieve friction. This special facing enhances the grip between the flywheel and the disc. A pressure plate on the other hand, is a spring-loaded clamp which is bolted to the flywheel. When the clutch pedal is depressed, the throw-out bearing moves toward the flywheel, pushing in the pressure plate's release fingers and moving the pressure plate fingers or levers against pressure plate spring force. This action moves the pressure plate away from the clutch disc, thus interrupting power flow. It is recommended to check the clutch. Although VW clutch disc are durable, they are still prone to wear out. Problems usually persist when most of the friction material of the disc is gone, it eventually won't transmit any power from the engine to the wheels. Resulting to poor driving performance. When the clutch doesn't fully engage then the VW clutch disc is bound for replacement. Another sign to notice clutch trouble is when the clutch engages and disengages close to the floorboard or the transmission grinds when shifting. Sometimes when the clutch pedal move easily but the transmission will not go into gear, the clutch linkage has become disconnected or a clutch cable has snapped. When you experience clutch chatter or jerking a replacement is needed. This chattering is often caused by an overheated clutch or from oil on the clutch disc. Since VW clutch parts are made from better materials chances are the vehicles will get faster and harder launches, quicker shifts and much better durability. Still, these clutch parts' performance will be dependent on the driver's usage and maintenance. So when one notices some troubling signs, it is suggested to replace the clutch immediately.

Cow "emisssions" are more damaging to the planet than CO2 from cars!
A United Nations report has identified the world's rapidly growing herds of cattle as the greatest threat to the climate, forests and wildlife. And they are blamed for a host of other environmental crimes, from acid rain to the introduction of alien species, from producing deserts to creating dead zones in the oceans, from poisoning rivers and drinking water to destroying coral reefs.
nice, you think they`re gonna blame cows for making dinosaurs extinct too?
and see im doing my share to protect the world!!!

lol, yeah ^^
but what's funny is that politics never speak about it... why ?? because they would lose electors :p
and anyway, i need my steak for me to ride my bike or walk
is it me or is CPR a little high on life today...
today ?... as today only ????
i saw nothing abnormal lately :p
yeah...they are trying to find ways to use the poop...ahaha. i think i read recently that the japanese were able to abstract vanilla from cow poop. ( i think). ahahha..if i remember correctly it was easier to get vanilla from the poop than from vanilla plants. somethin like that...ahahaha.
Cow poofs will be the end of us all!
It's dinner time.
That's insane. I love my milk, though. Clearly we need to handle how and where we raise cows better if we're going to keep up the numbers.Quote:
Cows also soak up vast amounts of water: it takes a staggering 990 litres of water to produce one litre of milk.
Heard about this a long time ago.
