1938: Thurstone's Punched Holes task is developed as a cognitive test
2013: Speed Pack uses similar principles to challenge visualization skills
1900s: The go/no-go task helps psychologists evaluate impulse control
2013: Lumosity releases Robot Factory, based on the go/no-go task

Only the Hottest Man on the face of the Planet. Till Lindemann is a very talented Singer of the German Industrial Band, Rammstein. No, "Du Hast" does NOT mean "You Hate", it means "You have". And no, the song is NOT about baking a cake. He is a Beautiful, and Talented man, who any woman would be lucky to get raped by. He is NOT a Nazi, and he does NOT worship satan, and he is NOT a Wife Beater, as the German tabloids claim he is.
"Wow, did you hear why Susie isn't at work?"

One who's cock and usually balls, can withstand excessive punishment. In fact, they are so strong that they become the possessor's greatest offensive weapon.

"Why not?"

A man that is unusually phyically strong for his size because of lack of sexual activity. It is believed that sexual activity temporarily physically weakens a man. Professional athletes abstain from sex prior to an athletic contest. College coaches keep their athletes under wraps the night before a game because of this. Professional boxers abstain from sex during training before a fight.

I word originating in the 1980s in NC. Initally a nickname many people called a guy from Jacksonville NC. Use of the word originally was used to describe his feats of strength in the gym. Many people thought it had to do with his sexual aura,so the word has overtime developed a second meaning to refer to a mans vitality.
1) That guy is cockstrong! Did you see him lift the back end of that car?!
2) So much sex last night, glad I am cockstrong.

What applications and services are available in Creative Cloud for education customers?
Applications and services vary depending on your Creative Cloud licensing option. See the Education licensing overview for a comparison of applications and services.
What's the difference between a complete and single-app membership?
A Creative Cloud for education complete plan includes all the Creative Cloud apps. A single-app plan gives users access to one app, such as Photoshop CC or Illustrator CC. Single-app customers on a named-user license will also have access to 20GB of storage and services such as the ability to sync, share, and collaborate with colleagues and the ability to create a customized online portfolio with Behance ProSite.
What is the best licensing option for a primary or secondary school or school district?
The Adobe Education Enterprise Agreement (EEA) provides primary and secondary schools with an easy-to-manage licensing program that gives students and teachers access to Creative Cloud apps. Optional bundles for Adobe Captivate, Presenter, Photoshop Elements, and Premiere Elements are also available.The EEA is a buying program for primary and secondary schools.
This one- or two-year term-based licensing program allows for predictable budgeting under a single agreement. Based on estimated street pricing, most primary and secondary schools that need approximately 15 or more computers in a lab or classroom environment will find that an EEA agreement is a lower-cost option than a Creative Cloud for education plan, depending on the institution's FTE (full-time equivalent) staff/teacher count. Learn more about EEA ›
Is Creative Cloud for education appropriate for institution-wide deployment?
If you're looking for an institution-wide deployment that's customized to fit your requirements, you can purchase Creative Cloud for enterprise through an Enterprise Term License Agreement (ETLA). Primary and secondary schools and legal entities may also purchase Creative Cloud apps through an Education Enterprise Agreement (EEA).
Can nonprofit customers purchase Creative Cloud through education licensing?
Yes, nonprofit customers are eligible to purchase both Creative Cloud for education named-user and device licenses, and may also be eligible under the ETLA. Contact your Adobe sales representative for more details. Note that individual Creative Cloud memberships do not qualify for nonprofit pricing.

The Pin-Ups of Dan DeCarlo 2 | |
Written by Jacob Covey | Filed under new releases, Dan DeCarlo | 10 Dec 2007 11:35 AM |
The second book of Dan DeCarlo's pin-up work is heading to book stores. Like the previous volume, the material all comes from DeCarlo's work for the third-rate humor magazines of "a simpler time" (read: chauvanist gags that could conceivably be trumped by any six year old).
DeCarlo was a master and it's difficult to deny the adolescent joy of seeing page after page of Riverdale's nightlife, with statuesque Bettys inviting men up to their room, gal pals chatting away in their lingerie, and Veronica-esque strippers grinding in a burlesque show. Alex Chun has loaded the book up with several dozen originals and includes another 150+ pages of spot-colored magazine page reproductions. PLUS: The great Jaime Hernandez wrote an introduction accompanied by a pin-up of his DeCarlo-influenced character Vivian "Frogmouth." AND: Stan Lee wrote a cover blurb! Stan was The Man who hired DeCarlo for the pin-up magazine work. He also wrote any number of the book's gags. The, uh, better ones I'm sure...

The volleyball coach at my son Charley's game had warned me. No question. "You can't sit here," she said, "Families sit in the upper level out of harm's way." "I can see better here," I insisted. Then the volleyball hit me, and I was seeing stars. Face bleeding, nose smashed, lip cut, I tried not to cry. I collected myself in the ladies room. I considered leaving. But Charley wouldn't understand if he looked up and I wasn't there. As I opened the door I expected to see a volleyball game in progress. What I saw, I'll never forget. There, beside the volleyball net, was my son, surrounded by his team, and his opponents, too. He was crying, and his buddies had turned their attention from their own moment of glory to make sure Charley was okay. I walked over to him and he threw his arms around me and cried some more. I assured him I was okay, his teammates slapped him high-fives, the excitement returned, and the game resumed.Special Olympics is about sportsmanship and there's so much more to it than beating the other guy. It's all about the dream and the team. The dream to be a winner, and the team that loves the sport and loves each other. It's about helping a teammate find his smile so he can get back in the game. That's what it means to win. Isn't it ironic? Those who are often considered the least of us because of their special needs are often the ones who teach us the most.

Posted December 06, 2012
Hello everyone. I have been playing a lot of fighting games on my PC ever since GOG.com released Street Fighter Alpha 2 on their site. I am currently using a Playstation 2 fightpad with a PS2 to PC converter and find it to work quite well with fighting games, but I am wondering what other controllers people use and what ones they think are the best.

I'm there... I need some escapism every now and then.
Here is a new clip from A Good Day to Die Hard. With its exotic setting, the film seems to have more of a James Bond feel. At east that is what I see in watching this this clip. How will that translate for the Die Hard franchise? Time will tell.
The Plot: Iconoclastic, take-no-prisoners cop John McClane, for the first time, finds himself on foreign soil after traveling to Moscow to help his wayward son Jack--unaware that Jack is really a highly-trained CIA operative out to stop a nuclear weapons heist. With the Russian underworld in pursuit, and battling a countdown to war, the two McClanes discover that their opposing methods make them unstoppable heroes.
The film is directed by John Moore and features Bruce Willis, Jai Courtney, and Mary Elizabeth Winstead.
A Good Day to Die Hard arrives February 14th, 2013.
Ha that looks like a blast.
Willis/Sly/Arnie right now I'd have to put my money on Willis to trounce the other 2 in the box office. Figures the punier guy would win at the end :(

I would be so proud to be called lovalicious. I don't think most Mexican guys appreciate what it means. To me I would be honored to be referred to that way. I think perhaps the urban dictionary has failed us lovalicious types. Here is to all bad boys who love us and could not be what they are without us. We may be subjucated bitches but we have a place in this world. Our men will be sure to stand up for us. we love those who cannot be loved for what they do but we love them anyway. Isn't that what true love is? Unconditional?
Read it, you may understand! I hope so, if maybe you do there is hope. I am lovalicious and proud.

Jets GM John Idzik, on ESPN Radio's Mike & Mike on Tuesday, talked about drafting Geno Smith
Tim Tebow was cut after the NFL draft because the addition of Geno Smith in the second round nudged him out.
That's the way New York Jets general manager John Idzik explained his team's quarterback situation Tuesday.
"Obviously, we went into the draft not knowing what to anticipate as far as what positions we would come out with," Idzik said during an appearance on ESPN Radio's Mike & Mike in the Morning. "Drafting Geno in the second round, it became apparent we had six quarterbacks. Something had to give, and we felt it was appropriate at that time to release Tim."
BELL: Tebow might now like playing options
CANADA?: CFL spot not so easy, eh?
The something that gave could have been quarterbacks Matt Simms, Greg McElroy, David Garrard or Mark Sanchez. But no, the Jets decided to let go of Tebow, who has struggled as an NFL passer and didn't make an impact in his one season as a utility player for the Jets.
Idzik said he didn't speak to Tebow about lining up anywhere other than under center.
"No, we didn't," said Idzik, who was hired in January. "While I was here, he was slated as a quarterback here."
The Jets kept Tebow through the draft to see if maybe he could be traded. Idzik was asked about any discussions that might have materialized.
TEBOW: Where will he land?
'HIGHLIGHTS': The best of Tebow's time with the Jets
"I don't know if it was allowing him to seek a trade. The way we looked at it was we had a player on our roster we would want to allow to compete," Idzik said, adding: "I won't get into too much as far as speculative calls. Suffice it to say, especially during free agency and leading up to the draft, there's a lot of kicking tires. We'll field those calls, but if it's not in the best interest of the Jets, we'll just hold firm."
Idzik continued to say what he has said since he arrived and what he reiterated after the Jets selected Smith: It's an open competition at quarterback.
Sanchez remains at the front of that competition and received praise from his new GM for the way he has dealt with the Tebow situation, the Garrard signing and the selection of Smith.
"Mark has been very even-keeled and I told him that I really admire how he's handled some very difficult situations," Idzik said. "The same holds true now. He's involved in our offseason program and now we're into Phase 2, so we can actually throw. He's focused, he's energized and very positive."

- How to Read a Study Record
This study will inform international medical guidelines as to whether the Levonorgestrel intrauterine device (LNG IUD), a highly effective long-acting reversible contraceptive method, is safe and acceptable as compared to the copper intrauterine device (C-IUD) for HIV-positive women in Cape Town, South Africa. If the LNG IUD is found to be safe and acceptable, the introduction of this method to HIV positive women in developing countries could significantly reduce unplanned pregnancy and mother-to-child transmission of HIV, and confer non-contraceptive benefits to HIV-positive women in Sub-Saharan Africa.
Condition | Intervention |
Device: Mirena levonorgestrel IUD Device: Copper T-380a IUD |
Study Type: | Interventional |
Study Design: | Allocation: Randomized Endpoint Classification: Safety Study Intervention Model: Parallel Assignment Masking: Double Blind (Subject, Outcomes Assessor) Primary Purpose: Treatment |
Official Title: | Comparison of Two IUDs Among Cape Town HIV-positive Women: A Randomized Controlled Trial Assessing Safety of Registered Products in South Africa |
- change in plasma viral load and time to ART initiation between HIV-positive ART-naive women using the levonorgestrel IUD and those using the copper IUD over 24 months. [ Time Frame: 2 years ] [ Designated as safety issue: Yes ]change in plasma viral load and time to ART initiation between HIV-positive ART-naive women using the levonorgestrel IUD and those using the copper IUD over 24 months.
- change in genital tract HIV shedding (measured through viral load) [ Time Frame: 2 years ] [ Designated as safety issue: No ]
- IUD continuation rates between HIV-positive ART-naive women using the levonorgestrel IUD and those using the copper IUD over 24 months. [ Time Frame: 24 months ] [ Designated as safety issue: Yes ]

Detailed Description:
Design: Single site, double-blind, randomized controlled trial
Population: Antiretroviral therapy ineligible, HIV-positive South African women between the ages of 18 and 40 years
Study size: 324 women
Study intervention: Levonorgestrel intrauterine device (LNG IUD) or the copper T-380 intrauterine device (C-IUD)
Duration & Follow-up: Approximately 42 months in total. Recruitment will take approximately 18 months. After enrollment, each participant will be followed for 24 months.
Primary Objectives: To compare LNG IUD safety to the safety of the C-IUD by comparing HIV progression between the two study arms.
Secondary Objectives: 1) To measure LNG IUD safety with respect to genital viral load shedding, a surrogate for HIV infectivity, as compared to the C-IUD. 2) To measure LNG IUD acceptability through device continuation and other measures as compared to the C-IUD.
Primary Endpoints: HIV-1 Viral Load (VL) change, CD4 change, hemoglobin change, time to antiretroviral therapy (ART) initiation, incidence of sexually-transmitted infections (STIs) and pelvic inflammatory disease (PID)
Secondary Endpoints: 1) Initiation/acceleration of detectable HIV RNA genital shedding 2) IUD continuation and expulsion rates and acceptability measures through quantitative and qualitative methods

When playing Modern Warfare 2, and a game featuring a game-winning killcam is about to be won, a victory class is used to humiliate the other team, the reason being that the victory class is a random create-a-class, and usually consists of bad guns and throwing knives. This is not only embarrasses the other team, but provides an entertaining last kill of other players.
We're about to win, switch to victory class. I'm gonna humiliate these noobs.

A Chinese Instacart clone raises $100 million
Dmall takes grocery orders online and employs workers who buy the items in supermarkets and delivery them quickly to consumers.
The future of adoption may not be as reliant on NFC as some may think.
We've all read the predictions of how consumer adoption of mobile wallet, technology that allows consumers to make payments with their smartphones in lieu of credit or cash, is about to take off. In a few short years, with a mere swipe of our smartphones, we'll be able to swiftly pay for goods and services everywhere we go. We've seen Mobil's SpeedPass and MasterCard's PayPass provide the roadmap for that kind of future, and a recent eMarketer study predicted that retail m-commerce sales would reach $86 billion by 2016.
Yet in an age when consumers have demonstrated the propensity to adopt new technology quickly—think Pinterest going from unknown web site to social powerhouse in less than 12 months, or Groupon going from shopper darling to cautionary tale in the same timeframe—why has there been so little progress in advancing mobile wallet adoption?
Many experts blame the hardware manufactures. It's Apple's fault for not including a Near Field Communications (NFC) chip with their latest iPhone release. Near Field Communications allows two devices in close proximity to establish a connection and transfer data, in this instance your smartphone and a piece of hardware at the register. These same experts point to the next iPhone or Samsung Galaxy release as the tipping point. Once Apple includes the technology, mass consumer adoption will begin, as will the next wave of m-commerce. After all, we've already seen this model work at Starbucks, which processes more than two million mobile transactions per week through its mobile app.
This argument is legitimate, and may in fact be accurate. Yet as payment services like Google Wallet and Isis, a mobile wallet consortium led by three major U.S. wireless carriers, continue to invest in an NFC-based solution, mobile phone manufacturers have yet to play along. What's more retailers have been slow to invest in the receiver hardware they would need to install on their checkout counters to participate.
This begs a very simple question: What if the technology is the roadblock, not the handset manufacturers' willingness to outfit their devices or the consumer's receptiveness to a mobile wallet solution? What if our vision for a mobile wallet future is off?
The fact is the current roadmap requires a significant investment for all parties involved. Manufactures and retailers alike must invest in hardware upfront—a sunk cost with a short shelf life. Those who have been willing to invest, like Macy's through Google Wallet, have been left with nothing more than technological eye candy at their registers; an unused screen occupying valuable real estate at checkout while serving as a reminder to innovators that mobile wallet is "ahead of its time." Those who have succeeded, like Starbucks, are blessed with a closed system in which they own the hardware and software, a younger and more affluent user base, and a new set of purchase motivators that encourages prepayment.
So while Google, Visa, and others invest millions in perfecting a NFC-based solution, and the wireless carriers invest hundreds of millions in joint ventures in their quest to dominate any mobile payment system that emerges, there's another player lurking who's quietly winning, convincingly, already. More importantly, that player may be providing a truer roadmap for us all.
In 2012, eBay's PayPal handled $14 billion in mobile payment transactions, more than three times more than $4 billion in 2011. While a vast majority of these transactions are the result of a traditional e-commerce style purchase via mobile, it represents the foundation for how this transaction can work. More importantly, it demonstrates consumer trust in this service. PayPal already has deals in place with Home Depot, RadioShack, Dollar General, and about 20 retailers, so that consumers can now pay with PayPal at the checkout counters in some 18,000 U.S. stores.
So, to marry the points, as Google Wallet is testing NFC with a few select retailers, and Isis has struggled to effectively implement a two-market test, PayPal expects to process $20 billion this year in mobile transactions, establishing a confident user base ready and willing to engage.
Is the dirty little secret that the hardware costs on each side of the NFC equation are really unnecessary?
So how does the PayPal model work? Simply connect your existing PayPal account to your existing mobile device. In some instances, you don't need your smartphone at all. A recent activation at Home Depot leveraged the point-of-sale system already in-store, allowing shoppers to enter their phone number and PIN code to complete the transaction.
As I think about this example, I keep asking the same question; is it possible that our cloud-obsessed culture has ignored what's right in front of our eyes? Do we really need a smartphone in this equation? What if software investments with linkages to POS systems, complete with rolling upgrades and smaller sunk costs upfront ultimately win vs. the current roadmap of upfront hardware costs, short lifespans and short-term obsolescence risks?
There are still many questions we all must answer about the future of m-commerce and the mobile wallet; questions an entire industry seems to be struggling with… except maybe for eBay CEO John Donahoe, PayPal president David Marcus and their band of quiet pioneers at eBay and PayPal.

The Best Moustaches in Baseball: Part Two
One of the greatest forms of said facial hair is the moustache; and no group of warriors have displayed the characteristics of a fine 'stache better than the men (and occasionally hormonally imbalanced women) of professional baseball.
In honor of Movember in which men across the world unite in growing moustaches to raise money for Prostate Cancer, I have decided to delve into the art of facial hair for part two of The Best Moustaches in Baseball.
This year's version covers some 'staches that may have been omitted from last year's list or have just recently left their stamp as some of the best cookie-dusters in baseball.
Keith Hernandez
Before I knew Keith Hernandez the baseball player, I knew him as the guy who allegedly spit on Kramer and Newman. His two-episode stint on Seinfeld not only solidified himself as one of the coolest moustache-clad men in the majors who may or may have not banged Elaine Benes.
Sal Fasano
During his illustrious career, Sal played for ten different teams and along the way he made a lasting impression on almost every city that he played in. As Blue Jays fans, we had the pleasure of watching Fasano work his magic in a Blue Jays uniform during the 2007 season.
Al "The Mad Hungarian" Hrabosky
Not only was Hrabosky's facial hair mean looking, just take a look at his name. It's basically the baseball version of Vlad the Impaler or Atilla the Hun. Hrabosky followed in the footsteps of legendary closers like Rich Gossage and Rollie Fingers as having a badass 'stache.
Ross Grimsley
Grimsley is the whole package – sporting a moustache and an afro that would make even the Ladies Man Leon Phelps jealous, Grimsely wasn't just a looker. In 1978, his 20-11 record garnered him a seventh place finish in the AL Cy Young voting.
Jeff Kent
I've always said that if Jeff Kent could moonlight as a police officer if he ever felt the need to take up a second job. Now that he's retired, you just might see Jeff Kent responding to a domestic dispute, or making a cameo appearance in a Super Troopers sequel near you.
Reggie Jackson
Not necessarily most revered for his prowess in the facial hair department, Mr. October still contributed towards the moustache culture with his classic but cool addition to the list. Did his stache help him hit three home runs in one game? No - but he looked damn good doing it.
So there we have it folks - part two of the best moustaches in baseball. Feel free to cast your vote on your favourite soup strainer below. The wondrous thing about the world of moustaches is that just like the hairs themselves, the history of moustaches in baseball only continues to grow as the years pass.
20 comments:
Scott, I'm with you on this one - Hrabosky is my favourite on this round. He looks like somebody you definitely don't want to meet in a back alley.
Peter D, I have to plead ignorance on this one - but I've actually never heard of Sparky Lyle's stache until you mentioned it. He will certainly be up for consideration when I do Part Three.
eyebleaf, the cameo on Seinfeld brought the Hernandez stache to the masses. I don't think I would know about him otherwise.- AnonymousNovember 10, 2009 at 1:30 PM
No arguments with any of these, however Bill Buckner should get an honorable mention.
ReplyDelete Fair enough Ack, fair enough.
Now that you've mentioned Acker, I'm thinking there are almost enough players to do a list comprised entirely of Blue Jays moustaches.
That would include Rance Mulliniks, Cito Gaston, George Bell, Dave Winfield, and basically anybody else from the roster between the years 1980 and 1993.I may have noted in the past - watched a game once where Mulliniks spat and got some of it caught on his stache - it appeared then that he noticed it on the big screen because he looked up, stopped, and turned aside to wipe his sleeve across his face.
And check out the 82 or 83 Topps cards of Buck Martinez -- definitely worth including.Matthias, neither had I under I put together this list. Hrabosky is one mean-looking dude.
QJays, that's one of the side effects of sporting a stache - it's almost inevitable that something will get left behind. I can believe that actually happened to Mullinkis though.
Buck Martinez will also be up for consideration on the next list ...HLF, how can you not vote for The Mad Hungarian? His nickname enough convinced me to vote for him. I just realized he actually has a bar in St. Louis named after him too - Al Hrabosky's Ballpark Saloon.
Mattt, I'll get to some hot stove stuff later this week, but once in a while it's nice to take a break from all that free agent/trade talk and honour our moustache forefather's.- AnonymousJanuary 20, 2010 at 12:48 AM
definitely HERNANDEZ

Highly efficient, the 6 inch wide powered MEB160 can spin it's brush roller up to 5,000RPM to agitate upholstery and rugs, sweeping surface and embedded soils into the vacuums airflow. The MEB160 cleans all textile surfaces quickly and quietly using it's own low noise electric drive motor. Many times more efficient than an regular unpowered upholstery nozzle and much more powerful than turbo nozzles - even those that sell for a similar price - the MEB160 gives you strong brushing power with an independent electric motor that is powerful and quiet.
The brush system is driven by a non-slip geared belt for dependable performance that is not reduced when suction lowers, as in air-driven turbo nozzles. The MEB160QD connects directly to the Plastiflex Control Clean hose and is controlled by the hose's power switch. Highly efficient, the 6 inch wide powered MEB160QD can spin it's brush roller up to 5,000RPM to agitate upholstery, rugs or any textile, sweeping surface and embedded soils into the vacuums airflow. The MEB160QD cleans all textile surfaces quickly and quietly using it's own low noise electric drive motor.
Got pet fur? No problem for the MEB160QD. Dried chunks of mud or loose sandy gunk in the foot wells of the family truckster? MEB160QD will power those soils from the carpet fibers with high speed brushing action so your vacuum can easily lift it out of your car. Tired of trying to hold your power brush at just the right angle to vacuum a stair tread? Do you have trouble holding your vacuums powerbrush flat against your stairs vertical riser? Easy as pie with the MEB160QD. The Mini Electric Brush is lightweight, swivels 180° to lay flat and the brush opening tilts to clean at almost any angle. Vacuum your mattress?
Many of us are told to vacuum our mattress in order to remove dust mites and dust mite fecal matter which can cause or aggravate allergies. The powerful MEB160QD can help remove embedded soils not cleaned by suction alone without damaging your mattresses cover fabric like full size carpet nozzles can. The applications for the MEB160QD are nearly unlimited and using the powered brush will greatly increase your cleaning effectiveness and your efficiency which allows you to clean better, faster.
The MEB160QD (Mini Electric Brush), also known as the HEB160 (Hand Electric Brush) is produced in Germany at the main Wessel-Werk factory. While there have been powered hand nozzles before the designs were most always proprietary and would fit only a few portable vacuums (Kenmore PowerMate was a popular mini brush years ago). The Aspria Souverän attachment set uses the industry standard for tool connection and power. To use the MEB160QD you just attach it to the hose handle like any other vacuum tool and your ready to clean.
The MEB160QD features an articulating nozzle shoe. The nozzle shoe is the opening of the MEB160QD's vacuum area where the spinning brush makes contact with the area or object to be cleaned. The nozzles shoe is the part of the vacuum tool that controls airflow through the tool for proper cleaning and, in the case of powered brushes, prevents the object from being vacuumed into the cleaning nozzle. The MEB160QD's shoe is unique because it tilts. This allows the angle of attack to vary within 15° without losing full contact of the shoe, resulting in better brush and suction performance.
The MEB160QD's shoe also has side cleaning ports both front and back on both sides of the shoe. These holes in the side of the shoe bring airflow in from the side of the nozzle which does increase performance at the side of the nozzle, but more importantly provides airflow across the entire brush roller when it can not be pulled through the area being cleaned (such as rugs with sealed backing or glued down fabrics). The side cleaning ports provide important airflow relief for the nozzle so the tool is always easy to use and airflow is always moving through it for superior performance.
The MEB160QD's brush roller is filled with medium density polypropelene bristles that are designed to take the high speed usage of an electric brush. The medium density fill is softer than most full sized power carpet cleaning nozzles which allows it to be safely used on upholstery of all types, including micro fabrics and natural textiles, without the fear of damage or fuzzing that stiff bristle brushing may cause. Just as with full size carpet power nozzles the MEB160's belt drive system is protected from the incoming dirt and dust by a barrier that prevents dust from entering.
To keep something really clean you need to vacuum it, and this is what Wessel-Werk does for the MEB160QD internal components. A reversing clean airflow is pulled from the top cooling vent on the MEB160QD's hood, through the brush motor and geared belt system and into the nozzles intake orifice and carried away to the vacuum. The reverse airflow through the nozzle keeps negative pressure inside the motor compartment which prevents dust from leaking in and damaging the system. The airflow also provides cooling for the brush motor which allows unlimited and uninterrupted usage.
At the heart of the MEB160QD's powerful cleaning performance is a new high voltage micro motor with incredible speed and torque. AC voltage from the hose is converted to 120 volts DC for use by the Johnson Electric DF651 micro motor. Along with converting the power to direct current the MEB160QD's motor is protected from jams by an automatically resetting breaker.
Should an object be pulled into the powered nozzle and jam the roller the protector circuit will activate and shut down the brush motor instantly. When the jammed object is removed from the nozzle and the MEB160QD is powered up the circuit resets automatically. The Johnson Electric High Voltage DC motor is compact and quiet but very powerful. With a maximum 11,000 RPM unloaded the standard speed of the motor is over 8,000 RPM. Using a non-slip fiberglass reinforced cogged belt and matching gear wheels on the motor's drive shaft and brush roller the nominal brush speed of the MEB160QD is regulated at 5,000 RPM, equivalent to it's full size carpet nozzle cousins.
The brush roller deign is auger style which drives all debris to the center of the nozzle and the vacuums suction port. Along with it's high brush speed the Johnson DF651 motor provides exceptional torque which drives the brush through all fiber types, even thick or deep plush carpet without stopping.
Using the MEB160QD will dramatically increase your cleaning efficiency when vacuuming textile surfaces both above and on the floor. Reducing the effort and time required to vacuum as well as providing true deep cleaning performance in hard to reach areas are just some of the reasons to use the MEB160QD with your central vacuum. Pet owners will consider the MEB160QD their most important vacuum tool. The ability to quickly and easily erase all evidence of your pup or kitty lounging on your sofa or riding in your car is held within the powerful Mini Electric Brush. Finally a powered nozzle that delivers on the promise of pet hair and lint removal from all those areas that your full size powered brush won't reach or can not clean.
The MEB160QD is sold 1 each with proprietary quick release hose connector.

BULK RATE U.S. POSTAGE PAID ST. IGNATIUS, MONTANA PERMIT NO. 1 59865 VOLUME 8 NUMBER 7 FULL MOON OF THE HUCKLEBERRY AUGUST 1, 1978 —Kerr Dam Negotiations— Negotiations between Tribal Officials, Montana Power Co. and Federal Energy Commission i representatives on July 12th, on the Kerr Dam lease adjustment for the years 1969 to 1979, resulted in an "impasse", according to Council Chairman Thomas "Bearhead" Swaney. The meeting was held at Montana Power Co. offices in Butte and was reported to have been "cordial". There is a possibility that another meeting will be scheduled for further negotiations. If no agreement can be reached, the lease adjustment dispute will have to be settled by the Federal Energy Commission. One provision of the Federal Power Commission license for the 50-year lease between the Tribe and Montana Power, requires that MPC renegotiates it's lease of the Kerr Dam site every ten years. The Federal Power Commission increased the annual rental from $235,000 to $950,000 in a lease adjustment for the 1959 to 1969 10-year period,after the Tribe and Montana Power failed to reach an agreement in the late 1960's. Tribal Officials have remained silent on the sum they are bargaining for on the 1969 through 1979 lease adjustment. Should the settlement include an additional increase, Montana Power would be required to pay the adjusted difference, which would be retroactive to 1969. The Tribe and Montana Power Co. have both filed applications for the Kerr Dam operation after 1980, when the 50-year license issued in 1930, will expire. Remains Councilman Noel Pichette from the St.Ignatius District will remain on the Tribal Council. It was reported that Councilman Pichette tore up his letter of resignation, during the Executive session held just prior to the regular Council meeting on Friday, July 21st. Attention There will be a meeting at the St. Ignatius Community Center on Aug. 7th at 7:00 p.m. to discuss the Indian water and sewage for HUD housing. The public is invited to attend this meeting. -LONG JOURNEY IS OVER- "The Longest Walk" arrived in Washington D.C. on July 15th, after five months from its' starting point in San Francisco on February 11th. Protesting legislation that directly threatens and oppresses Indian rights established in treaties, was the main purpose for the walk. Some issues discussed during workshops were sterilization, genocide, sovereignty, education survival and legislative reviews. After a number of speakers were heard at Lafayette Park, a Native American Manifesto was presented to senators and congressmen. Proceeds from a benefit concert at the Washington D.C. Armory on July 23rd and a 10-round exhibition fight with ex-heavy weight champion Muhammed Ali participating, will be used to help finance the walkers return home. Three thousand walkers have taken an active part in the coast to coast journey.

[ Complete rules ] | [ Admins ] | [ Penalty points log ] | [ League statistics ] |
How to play custom maps
To play custom maps, go to create a custom game, and enter the name of the map in the search box in the upper right corner of the maps interface.Key Rules
Replays: Replays must be uploaded to the match page (not zipped) immediately after the match! You will receive penalty points for missing replays starting at the quarter finals!
Coverage: See the streams page for details
Server / Country Restriction: All players are allowed to play, but the matches will be played on the European Battle.net with a European Host.
Matches from quarter finals onwards need to be hosted by the matchadmin. In special cases and with the agreement of the matchadmin you are allowed to host and start the match by yourself.
If a match was played without the matchadmin or his permission, penalty points will be given and the match will be stated as invalid. The responsible matchadmin for your match will announce himself in the matchcomments, only contact this admin.
Match format
Best of 1 until the Quarter Finals. In Best of 1 the map is always fixed and shown on the match page (or below).
Best of 3 in the Quarter Finals, Semi Finals and 3rd Place.
The Final is Best of 5.
In Best of 3 and Best of 5 a map veto (removal and pick) system is used. The high seeded player (seeds are shown on the match page) decides who starts. Players take it in turn removing maps until only three remain, then each player picks a map. Maps are played in order they are picked. The remaining map is played last.
If there is a disconnect in the first 4 minutes of the game and there has been no contact between players, then the game will be restarted.
After this time, the match should be re-gamed unless one player had a great advantage.
If the problem occurs frequently then an admin should be contacted.
If a game is restarted players must choose the same races.
No shows
If your opponent is not ready to play, 15 minutes after the scheduled match time, then you should report that your opponent is a no show to an admin in the Cup Chat.
Protests must be raised to admins in the cup chat as soon as possible. Protests raised late, or through the website may be ignored.
