The Alpine Luxury Gourmet & SPA Hotel in Tyrol
Relaxed exclusivity. Exquisite enjoyment.
When do you define an experience as being complete? Or a trip unique? It is surely when harmony pervades the entire experience, when real people display genuine hospitality, and when senses are excited that are normally reserved only for really special things. With strong links to the locality, down-to-earth, cosmopolitan and international, exquisite and tasteful, every room of this Alpine Luxury Hotel is a unique example of fine Alpine architecture. Atmospheric, spacious, and surrounded by picturesque scenery with a magnificent backdrop and uninterrupted views of the impressive Zugspitz massif.
Luxury Hotel & Scenic Hideaway
Naturalness and quality are the benchmarks of true wellbeing with tradition, and openness and good-humoured charm are the foundations of the delightful atmosphere here. Whether you experience this in the guise of a tasteful hideaway in the 4*-Superior-Hotel Post or as a pleasant stay in the Post Schlössl, you come face to face with your hosts' Angelika & Franz Dengg vision of a luxury hotel in Austria: a symbiosis of classical noblesse with playfully refined joie de vivre. Discover it for yourself.
On the 8 December 2006, the Luxury Hotel Post, a hotel with a history stretching back 450 years, reopened after successful building expansion, and has since then been continuing to attract guests with its refined accommodation in 59 selective suites from 40 to 75 m² and a 127 m² Penthouse. Award-winning cuisine is served in the culinary hotspots, such as the "Post Gourmet Stube", der Alten Poststube, dem Saal Tirol, der Kaminstube, der Fürstenstube, der Jagdstube und der Zugspitzstube, in welchen Kulinarik auf Hauben-Niveau geboten wird. Entspannt wird an der Hotelbar & in der Cigar-Lounge, auf der Sonnenterrasse mit einem der schönsten Panoramen Tirols, dem 2.000 m² großen Post Alpin SPA with its indoor and outdoor pools, 9 different saunas and baths, rest and fitness rooms, and the picturesque panorama garden.

Former Jacksonville 'occupier' lashes out over FBI probe
Homeland Security considered group a 'potential terrorist threat'
In northeast Florida, the Occupy Movement was targeted as part of an FBI investigation. Now, a former "occupier" is lashing out.
For weeks, Bill Guerrant and others camped out at Jacksonville City Hall. Internal documents reveal Homeland Security deemed the group a "potential terrorist threat."
"Well I think it's ridiculous," said Guerrant. "I think it's ironic that the FBI would be concerned about a homegrown movement, that is, Americans that care about our country, care about our system."
Guerrant said he's troubled that counter-terrorism agents monitored protests across the country, even holding a briefing in Jacksonville to recommend setting up trip wires with Occupy event organizers.
"I mean it was all right there in front of them," said Guerrant. "There wasn't anything hide, and to put a trip wire down when they're streaming all over the united states, that's just a waste of money."
The FBI released a statement saying it recognizes the rights of individuals and groups to engage in peaceful protests, but must also take precautions. Something Channel 4 Crime and Safety Expert Ken Jefferson believes is understandable.
"If they get a notion, an intuition, a lead or just a thought that these groups could be more radical than they think, then it becomes the FBI's responsibility to act on that no matter how they receive it," said Jefferson.
Some civil rights groups are still upset calling it a violation of the constitution. The FBI stands behind the decision to deal with any potential threat of violence.

Product Name: |
Aspire One AO722-C62kk Netbook
Product Type: |
Bought this for my daughter for an overseas trip. We picked this netbook since it runs a full version of Windows 7, has 4GB RAM, and a 500 MB hard drive. The processor is not very powerful, but these make up for it. She only needs it for skype, office apps, and surfing. Everything you need is pre-loaded. Some other netbooks were a bit smaller, but much less powerful. If it had a bigger processor I would rate it as Excellent.
It is compact and easy to tote. Windows seems to have problems, but that is another story. I do get a warning window that tells me acer is not compatible with a program in Windows 7. But, I cancel the window and Windows continues without a problem.
Nice computer with a little more specifications than other netbooks.
I wanted a computer with Windows 7 that I could take on trips. My 17 inch laptop is too big and bulky for travel. This netbook fits the bill perfectly. I find it to be the right size and weight for traveling and the screen is very clear. Glad I found such a good bargain at overstock.
My main objection is how heavy it is compared to my previous 2 Lenovo netbooks. Runs yet another version of Explorer. Easy to set up and get started. Keyboard allows for easy typing (ie, keys not too small). Screen is bright. I'm hoping I'll get used to it and love it like my previous purchases. Good value pricewise for sure. I'm torn if I could recommend this but it wouldn't be the worse thing you or a friend could buy.
Excellent product at a great price point on Overstock. The shipping was very fast, as well. I would certainly purchase this Acer again. Highly recommend!

Bitter Competition: The Holland Sweetener Co. vs. NutraSweet (A), Spanish Version

The NutraSweet Co. has very successfully marketed aspartame, a low-calorie, high-intensity sweetener, around the world. NutraSweet's position was protected by patents until 1987 in Europe, Canada, and Japan, and until the end of 1992 in the United States. The case series describes the competition that ensued between NutraSweet and the Holland Sweetener Co. (HSC) following HSC's entry into the aspartame market in 1987. Describes the subsequent move and countermove in both the marketplace and the courts. Also, discusses the business "game" that takes place at both the tactical and value levels. Ends with the final countdown to the expiration of NutraSweet's U.S. patent.
learning objective:
To examine a game in business that takes place at two levels: the surface game of tactics and the underlying game of value. At the tactical level, there are various points at which NutraSweet or HSC made a move with a view to shaping the perceptions of the other player. Turning to the underlying game of value, there are the actions that NutraSweet took during the period of patent protection. These actions served to maintain NutraSweet's added value in the post-patent game, and to deny added value to challengers.

Anyone ride a fatbike.Anyone ride a fatbike.Hi,
I am after any info on Fatbikes such as Pugsley or Mukluk and your experiences with this type of bike. I intend on buying a fatbike for touring offroad and Mtbing around Perth Hills and coastal areas. If anyone has built a fatbike from a conventional Hardtail or FS MTB can you please provide details. Thanks
Re: Anyone ride a fatbike.There's at least one on here - take a tour through the "Post your ride" thread and it'll be there.
Re: Anyone ride a fatbike.I don't ride one, but after seeing the Pug and the Moonlander, I'm wondering if a phat might be my second bike... there is something intensely cool about them, if you don't want to go fast you might as well be AWESOME
Re: Anyone ride a fatbike.If funds and wife would allow it, I would have one in a heart beat.
Would be great for riding along the beach with. Not sure about riding in the water though.
Re: Anyone ride a fatbike.Well I'm convinced, Stockton Beach plus Fatbike equals cycling heaven
Re: Anyone ride a fatbike.Salt water + (any metal <> stainless steel) =
Re: Anyone ride a fatbike.
That's why God invented the tap to produce another invention, fresh water I think the assault on the bike would be worth the fun of flogging a Moonlander down Stockton Beach for a week
Re: Anyone ride a fatbike.You could always spray WD40/RP7/Lanoguard/Inox/Lanox or similar on all non-brake parts you think need protection from corrosion/electrolysis.
Re: Anyone ride a fatbike.And then worry about the fine sand that gets through everything. Rode in a bit of soft sand near Yeppoon and realised quickly how much of it gets thown up into the chain etc. Luckily it was my old beater.
Re: Anyone ride a fatbike.If people are prepared to take 80 thousand dollar Landcruisers down the beach, a 2000 dollar fatbike is hardly out of the question.
I do accept that it would be advisable to have a completely separate groupset for dedicated beachriding, or better yet, have a second bike that isn't going to go through the sand, but I still reckon this would be fun. I'm actually toying with the idea of getting a fatbike for my second bike to go with my Kona road bike. It's a completely different ride, I reckon it would be lots of fun, and would be good to ride with the kids when they are old enough to get on a BMX, with the super low gears.
Re: Anyone ride a fatbike.You could always try wax. http://www.ecovelo.info/2011/10/10/chain-waxing-101/
Re: Anyone ride a fatbike.Elvis (the Dirtworks guy) on Rotorburn has one. Some info here he has also posted pictures of one of his rides on MTBR i just can't find it at the moment.
Re: Anyone ride a fatbike.You'd think a good coat of paint would offer protection too.
Even with copious quantities of fresh water and/or oil-based protectants, you're still gonna destroy your bike in short order from corrosion. Just seeing what salt air used to do to our powder coated alloy window frames and sliding doors that were supposedly warranted against corrosion when we lived at Dee Why was an eye-opener.
Re: Anyone ride a fatbike.As for paint, you're not going to be able to paint the inside of the frame easy, so you'd want to seal the seatpost with grease pretty well and drill a hole in the BB shell. My Surly CC came with a hole in the BB and I drilled one in my MTB. You'd probably need to pay a fair amount of attention to the headset area too. You may be able to use a sacrificial anode if your bike gets wet enough on the beach. May not work in dryer conditions. Chances are though that the people that have the extra funds to ride a fat bike on the beach also have available funds similar to you (and most people here) for bikes and therefore it won't matter too much if they need to replace a frameset every 5 years or so.
Re: Anyone ride a fatbike.Interesting point there... if I thought I could brutalise the bike and just have to replace the metal bits every 5 years, I'd still go for it. The parts on all the fatbikes are fairly low spec, it's just the unique nature of some parts which pushes the overall cost up. I mean, even at a RRP of 2000-2250 bucks, that's probably 1000 bucks of replacement parts, and that's only 400 bucks a year. The Carbon Crew are killing a LOT more cash than that. Plus these things aren't running Zipp 404s etc - it's not like you'd suffer catastrophic failure without seeing it coming.
If I bought a new car, I'd have just as easily bought half a dozen Moonlanders and gone riding with friends
Re: Anyone ride a fatbike.I'm in the market for a hardtail to replace my aging Giant Yukon; was thinking of getting the Pugsley frame and then just sticking 26ers in it till I build up a set of fatties and want to take it somewhere stupid. Added bonus that it would look proper naff with the small wheels on.
But I don't think they're suspension corrected unfortunately Do or do not. There is no try
Re: Anyone ride a fatbike.
Saronmcm I have a Mukluk built relatively light weight and can help you if you have specific questions. The Mukluk is an alloy frame and is symmetrical but being 6061 alloy, it's a bit stiff - certainly stiffer than the Pugsley steel. I couldn't do a Pugsley's asymmetry though. A relaxing touring bike because you can take your eye off the track ahead to look around without having to worry about the track surface irregularities that do upset a 26" or 29" regular MTB. Converting to tubeless is a must though if you're heading anywhere with thorns. It climbs well and rolls well on the flat. Takes six or seven good prods on the pedals to get it up to speed - unlike a regular hard tail that needs two or three. Once rolling though it's pretty good at maintaining speed. A bit of a handful in the rough because the bike wants to pogo about and once bouncing it'll go wherever it wants to. Can be scary around a fast bend. You'll have to learn to corner again because of the substantial change in turn radius as you lean the bike but after a bit it feels completely natural. Hard to go back to a normal bike again though. You'll be falling into turns. The hardest thing about riding a fat bike is that everybody and I do mean everybody will want to stop you and chat or comment on the bike. If you're in for the ride or using it for training then the constant interruption is a hassle. It's a bike that will beg you to ride coastal tracks and to ride long distances. I think that the area from Perth down along the cape(s) will be sensational on a fatty. The sandy trails near the caves is just drop dead fantastic on fat. Wax based lubricants are best in sand and don't worry about rust. Just keep a light film of Bel-ray grease on the head stem - the fork is steel. Heaps of braze on fittings for just about anything you want to bolt onto the frame for touring. The only problem I have is that I enjoy riding the fat bike more than my other mountain bikes and I'm slowly losing my technical abilities and confidence when tackling tough tracks. It's also a hoot to get out on the road, mix it with the road cyclists and listen to that glorious tyre roar when you get it going fast. It's also pretty cool with that fat front tyre always in your preripheral vision..... George from iSi Advanced Bicycle Carrier Systems
Re: Anyone ride a fatbike.if you've got 2k to throw at a novelty bike like that, corrosion is not going to worry you too much
Re: Anyone ride a fatbike.I wouldn't say novelty bike. People tour on them
Re: Anyone ride a fatbike.
It's a special purpose bike. We (fat bikes) took out most of the top placings in this year's Simpson Desert challenge. Hey Mugglechops, how good are those fork mounts for biddons! George from iSi Advanced Bicycle Carrier Systems
Re: Anyone ride a fatbike.
I would have liked a fat bike when I attempted the Simpson Challenge in 2000. I would like one now but I just got a 3rd bike past the wife yesterday. 4 would be pushing it a little
Re: Anyone ride a fatbike.Just found another use for fatbikes courtesy of Rotorburn.
Re: Anyone ride a fatbike.
That highlights an issue with fat bikes. When they land, they go THUD and it's tough on the body. Well tough on this weary old body at least. George from iSi Advanced Bicycle Carrier Systems
Re: Anyone ride a fatbike.
Oh I assumed that one was yours.... If you got a 3rd bike past the wife then there's hope for four bikes. There you go, challenge is out there on you. You know, they aren't that expensive. I purchased the frame, light weight rims, hubs and crankset - which are all special on a Mukluk's symmetrical frame. The rest was parts I had buried away in the parts drawers at the factory.

I write about people, technology, and the worlds they make.
I'm a senior consultant at Strategic Business Insights, a Menlo Park, CA consulting and research firm. I'm also a visitor at the Peace Innovation Lab at Stanford University. (I also have profiles on Linked In, Google Scholar and Academia.edu.)
I began thinking seriously about contemplative computing in the winter of 2011 while a Visiting Researcher in the Socio-Digital Systems Group at Microsoft Research, Cambridge. I wanted to figure out how to design information technologies and user experiences that promote concentration and deep focused thinking, rather than distract you, fracture your attention, and make you feel dumb. You can read about it on my Contemplative Computing Blog.
My book on contemplative computing, The Distraction Addiction, was published by Little, Brown and Company in 2013.
My next book, Rest: Why Working Less Gets More Done, is under contract with Basic Books. Until it's out, you can follow my thinking about deliberate rest, creativity, and productivity on the project Web site.
The Distraction Addiction
My latest book, and the first book from the contemplative computing project. The Distraction Addiction is published by Little, Brown and Co.. It's been widely reviewed and garnered lots of good press.

I've now been riding my SOLO for a year
- Familiarity: I've put it through the wringer
I've been riding the trails near my home in NC for nearly a year and it rides like a charm. I had been riding a Blur LT and had way too much travel for the terrain around here. The SOLO climbs like a mountain goat and is equally nimble on the descents. I have had a few rolls over logs where the lower bottom bracket took a brush. I think that was more an issue of me getting a sense of the geometry and now I'm able to hop over most obstacles.
I also have a 29er hard tail, but 650b really is the best of both worlds. I
Good 650 b
- Gender: Male
- Familiarity: I've used it several times
i had a chance to ride this bike over a long weekend. My initial impressions of this bike are good. The 5 inches of travel and steeper head angle (68 degrees) makes this bike a nice choice for longer,epic type rides vs the Bronson.The bikes geometry is very comfortable and I found the sizing (large) to be perfect for me,being 5'11. The bikes handling as very good as it performed well in tight single track,moderate jumps and ledges (nice platform for landing) and great acceleration. It was a little sluggish on climbs but the bike is a little heavier than my current rig.The Xo-1 set up is really nice and quiet on the trail and you don't have to worry about throwing chains with it. All in all the bike performed well and I would recommend it.
I'm a sales rep for Competitive Cyclist so if you have questions contact me direct at 801.736.6396 x 4074 or email firstname.lastname@example.com

Not My Favorite 650b But Still Solid
- Gender: Male
- Familiarity: I've used it once or twice and have initial impressions
Needless to say I was incredibly stoked to throw a leg over the 5010 for the first time. After setting up the suspension and biking around the neighborhood dialing in the bike I was ready to rip the next day.
The Climb: I took this bike up the Glenwild trails (a trail system I am very familiar with and have ridden many different bikes on). On the way up, I felt that the VPP system kept me a little lower in the travel than what I am used to on my Yeti SB66. I kept the CTD float in the Descent mode the whole day so I could really get a feel for what the suspension system was doing. By raising the seat a little higher than I usually do, it compensated for sitting lower in the travel and I didn't feel like my efficiency was getting 'robbed,' as much
compared to the Ibis HDR which has similar amount of travel and utilize the DW-link suspension system, the 5010 did not climb as well as either of these bikes.
The 5010, however, did perform incredibly well on technical climbing section and kept traction very well.
The Descent: After an 8 mile climb I was very ready to point those tires downhill and see what they could do. My initial impressions were that the VPP system performed very well in keeping the bike grounded. It kept the rear wheel from skipping as I hit the notorious blind switchbacks. This bike held traction in corners great as well. I felt that I could lay the bike down with more confidence that I wouldn't slide. The downside of the descent was that the VPP system made the bike feel as though it was glued to the ground which made it more difficult to utilize the suspension to help me jump over obstacles and move the bike around in the air. Compared to the HDR, which is incredibly playful on the descents. With my riding style, where I like to make the most of natural features on the trail this bike wasn't for me but it would be excellent for someone who likes to rip but keep their tires planted firmly on the ground
I couldn't disagree with you more on the climbing comparison to the HDR. Your shock settings must not have been right. I own a HDR and the 5010 Easily Eats It Alive on the Climbs! It made my $9000.00 HDR feel like a Big Slow Pig on the climb up Mac Ridge. The HDR is more for those who aren't in a hurry on the climbs. On my 20 plus mile test Loop in Fruita I posted over a Dozen PRs on the Low end Aluminum 5010 that was bone stock and Easily 2-3 pounds heavier than my HDR. Up, Down, and Across, I was faster on the 5010. You can't cheat the clock. I'd also say its more playful as well. The 5010 in My opinion is the Most balanced Trail bike I have ever ridden. I just wish the Large had a 24.5" top tube.
After riding this bike I sold my almost new HDR.
Nate Margolis
I agree that I don't think I set up my suspension correctly. I should have brought a shock pump with me, the suspension was sitting me a little lower in the travel than what I like. That definitely makes a huge difference in how the bike rides.
Adam D
Not just the Bronson's little Brother
- Gender: Male
After taking this bike for a spin in the Wasatch Mts around SLC, I was thoroughly impressed. After riding Bronson, which caters to the lift service rider, I found the 5010 to be what everyone was hoping for in the Bronson- a fast, nimble trail bike longing for a day of climbing and descending. I'd rate the Bronson 80% down and 20% up but the 5010 definitely splits the ride more evenly without sacrifice - maybe 55%/45%. Tweener wheels, welcome to the stable!

Chester Community Chorus to offer winter concerts Dec. 3 - 5
The award winning Chester Community Chorus will present three winter concerts in the Lake Almanor Basin during the first weekend in December.
Titled "Many Sounds of Christmas," the concert will include, according to director Elsie Wesley, "a wide selection of holiday music featuring full harmonies, foreign languages, the humorous, the exciting and the enjoyable."
"It took me about three months to choose the music after a review of over 200 choral pieces," Wesley said.
She said that among the special numbers would be a Haitian carol, two baroque musical pieces, a vocal solo by Josh Huddleston and a cello solo.
The musical selections to be performed are Schubert's "Ave Maria," three Spanish carols, "A Caribbean Christmas Holiday," "A Swinging Gloria," "White Christmas," "Sing We Joy! Alleluia," "Haitian Noel" and "O' Holy Night."
She said the chorus, The New Chorale, The Kindred Spirits women's group and The New Gen children's group would each perform.
New for this season, The Quartet will debut. Natalie Kepple, who plays with the Reno Symphony Orchestra, and Basin resident Jeff Bryant will join the performers.
Concerts are open to the public and though there is no charge for the performances, donations would be appreciated.
"At this time we want to let everyone know the Chester Community Chorus is on its own since Feather River College cut our grant due to government financial setbacks," Wesley said.
The CCC board of directors is working hard to keep the 21-year fixture in place and has hired two grant writers.
"I am personally appealing to all our patrons, donors, benefactors and friends in the community to please continue to give financial assistance to keep the chorus going and free concerts in the community," Wesley said.
"There was a rumor going around that the Chester Community Chorus is at its end. While it is true that we are in a financial crisis, with continued support from the community we can rise above this difficult situation," added Wesley.
Performance schedule
Evening performances are Friday and Saturday, Dec. 3 – 4, at 7 p.m. The closing afternoon performance is Sunday, Dec. 5, at 3 p.m.
A Patron's Night reception will follow the Friday, Dec. 3, concert.
All performances will be at the Chester Community United Methodist Church, on Main Street (Highway 36) at Glenwood Drive, in Chester.
For more information about the upcoming concerts or the Chester Community Chorus, call Trina Woods at 259-2551 or Elsie Wesley at 284-1750.
About the director
Wesley comes from a background that includes academic as well as musical instruction. Experienced in the field of music production, she is a native of the Philippines.
She first became involved with music when she began piano lessons at age eight.
"It was a continuous lesson that didn't stop until I earned my bachelor's degree in music education in 1974," she said.
Wesley, hired in October 2006, participated in three months of on-the-job training. At the completion of her local familiarization program in January 2007, she picked up the baton as the official director of the Chester Community Chorus.

To those on the outside, copy is an enigmatic art form, the artist who, for all practical purposes, is invisible. But written copy is everywhere. It's as prolific as sand in the Sahara and Starbucks on a city street. From ads sprawled across buses to bylines in magazines, a branded t-shirt logo or a memorable movie quote; every single word that enters the public arena has been chosen with utmost precision for one very specific individual: you.
There are two ways to dissect the aforementioned skill. On the one hand, copy is a marketing tool, one that not only entices its audience but also builds a loyal following. On the other hand, it tells a story and links the consumer, knowingly or unknowingly, to a product or a service. This is why your copy should work towards a goal: To form an emotional connection that resonates long after the words are no longer visible. When good copy is out of sight, it is very much still on the mind.
But how does one go about generating this written form of time-tested communication, and why is it such an indispensible commodity for any business?
These questions can easily be plugged into a search engine, but what you'll dig up is an endless list of dotcoms offering "the top ten," or better yet, "the top eleven" tips for success. And like most Internet searches, the secrets divulged from one website to another will not differ dramatically.
What you won't find is that quality copy is as much about what you shouldn't do than what you should. So rather than reiterate the already accessible steps to creating effective copy, we're providing novel notes on how to avoid a copy catastrophe.
1. Don't rely on a thesaurus. It's obvious when an overwrought word has muddled the meaning of a sentence. If you're unsure, just maintain a simple, conversational tone. Reading out loud, as if you were speaking to your audience, can be tremendously valuable.
2. Don't fall back on hackneyed manners of expression, as clichés have been called the compost of art. You will get greater feedback for describing why a deal is good than suggesting, "It's like stealing candy from a baby." That is, unless you are trying to promote for Milton Hershey.
3. Don't market anything that you are unfamiliar with. Know the product like the back of your hand. (Did you catch that? You should not say, "Know the product like the back of your hand.") Dishonest writing tends to be unclear, and if you don't believe what you're writing, how will the customer? Ample research should precede the task at large.
4. Don't write boring sentences. Just as you don't always start sentences with the same word, neither should copy. Avoid beginning with "the" or "it" too often. Do vary sentence length and structure. It will engage the reader. It will give you a distinct voice. It will get a positive reaction. (See? Boring.)
5. Don't be vague. Since the online and offline market is so enormous, it's rare to come across an idea that's wholly unique. Do use specific details to differentiate your product from another, and use these descriptions for promotional means. Gertrude Stein may be famous for scribing, "A rose is a rose is a rose," but yours should be long stemmed, have burgundy petals, and a fragrance that would make a skunk blush.

Tanoshinde kudasai ne! 楽しんでくださいね! Enjoy!
Read more…Our restaurants in Sacramento (midtown and Arden Fair), Roseville (Eureka Road and The Fountains), Elk Grove, Davis, Fair Oaks, and Northstar all promise the highly original Mikuni brand of culinary excellence. Whether you like your fish raw or seared to perfection…whether chicken or beef strikes your fancy…this is where you'll find the best of the best.
Want to learn more about sushi? Read on!
You may have wondered about the person who first pulled a wriggling fish out of the ocean, cut it open, and decided to eat it raw. Was he in too much of a hurry to cook it over an open flame? Was he so hungry that he couldn't wait to get a fire going? Or did he simply take a leap of faith and sample a bite out of curiosity? Whatever the reason, we at Mikuni are glad he decided to try something different, and we're grateful for the discovery of this amazing cuisine.
These days, we think of sushi as a raw-fish delicacy, but that's not actually the case. Technically, sashimi is raw fish, while sushi means "vinegared rice." In fact, depending upon how you interpret the kanji symbols that make up the word "sushi," it can also translate to "delicious fish." If you've spent much time in Japanese restaurants, you know that sushi isn't necessarily raw at all, since many rolls and nigiri-zushi are made with cooked foods, such as shellfish, eggs, seared tuna, and eel.
The exact history of sushi is unclear, and claims of its origin date back as early as the 5th century BC. It is a commonly held belief that it did not originate in Japan, but likely got its start in Southeast Asia or China. Wherever it began, we're delighted to bring it to you right here in California!

2010? Sounds very creepy to me, time to wake up.
Phoronix: Mandriva 2010 Alpha Brings Plymouth, New Features
The first alpha release of Mandriva Linux 2010 was released on Sunday. This development update brings a number of core improvements to Mandriva such as a faster boot time, Plymouth integration for enhancing the boot process, Tomoyo for providing the security framework, Moblin packaging, and various other improvements. In this article we are taking a brief look at Mandriva Linux 2010 Alpha 1.
2010? Sounds very creepy to me, time to wake up.
I started out on Mandrake 9.0 after a stint on Red Hat.
the Mandriva Control Center is so good, I am so surprised other distro's don't have something similar [besides Suse that has YaST]
I have come back to Mandriva on 2009.1 and I am loving it. It boots so fast on my desktop and EEE PC. Stable and snappy and with the MCC, all power is given to the users.
Top work Mandriva!
Can you guys post a boot up video showing difference b.w plymouth and splashy /

The Husqvarna F 635 is a blade for cured concrete with medium–hard (granite) to hard (quartz) aggregate. The Husqvarna F 640 is a blade for cured concrete with soft (limestone) to medium (granite) aggregate.
Because of the high power of the machine, the blades are fitted with narrow water slots that give a wider segment and longer service life.
The shape of the segment means that you get a smooth and free-cutting start when applying a new blade in concrete.
To prevent undercutting, all diameters are equipped with a guard in the form of a support segment or recessed drop segment.

Meaning & Origins
Anglicized form of Gaelic Brighid (pronounced 'breed');. This was the name of an ancient Celtic goddess, which in Gaulish would have been Brigindos, meaning 'the exalted one'. St Brigid of Kildare (c.450–c.525) is one of the patron saints of Ireland. Very few facts are known about her life. She founded a religious house for women at Kildare, and is said to be have been buried at Downpatrick, where St Patrick and St Columba were also buried. Many of the stories of miracles told about St Brigid seem to be Christianized versions of pagan legends concerning the goddess. The popularity of the name was further reinforced throughout Europe, especially in Scandinavia in the form Birgit, as the name of the patron saint of Sweden (1304–73). She was a noblewoman of Irish stock who, after the death of her husband, founded an order of nuns, the Bridgettines. Later she went to Rome and attempted to introduce religious reforms there.

BPKI Enrolment Process
- BPKI Enrolment Process
- How to request a BPKI certificate
- Accepting/reject a BPKI request
- Invitation to request your BPKI certificate
- Invitation to request your BPKI certificate
1) Introduction
A BPKI certificate, also known as a client X.509 certificate, is used to identify a user or a client. They are meant for authenticating a client to a server. In case of AFRINIC, the client certificate delivered will hold your NIC-HANDLE as Common Name (CN). You must be an authorised contact of your organisation to obtain a BPKI certificate. A BPKI certificate is needed to access the following services:
- Electronic Voting
- Resource Certification (RPKI).
2) How to request a BPKI certificate
To request a BPKI certificate, connect to https://my.afrinic.net and navigate to "My Account > BPKI".
2.1. Administrative contact
If you are an administrative contact, you will have to send us your identification information:
- Full name
- E-mail address
- Organisation's name
- Scanned copy of an official Government/State-issue ID, passport, driver's license or company'ID card.
2.2. Non-administrative contact
If you are a technical, billing, abuse or general contact, you will be asked to request a BPKI certificate by clicking on the "Request BPKI certificate" button.
Your request will be sent to all the Administrative contacts of your organisation. You need to follow up with them to know the status of your request.
3) Accepting or reject a BPKI request (for admin contacts only)
An email is sent to all admin contacts of an organisation when a non-admin contact makes a BPKI request. Below is an example of an email sent to administrative contacts.
To accept a BPKI request made by non-admin contacts of the organisation, navigate to "My Account -> BPKI". The system will grant you access to this section only and only if you (as admin-contact ) already have a valid BPKI certificate. If not go back to step 2.1.
You can then accept or reject a BPKI request of somebody from your organisation.
4. Invitation to request your BPKI certificate
Once your BPKI request has been approved either by the Hostmaster (for admin contacts) or by your organisation's administrative contact, you will receive an email like the one below:
5. Enroll your BPKI certificate
To enroll your BPKI certificate you will have to connect to the External RA(Registration Authority) service. This service allows you to generate BPKI either by:
- Creating a browser certificate (Generate a keypair in the browser and get a certificate for this keypair directly from the browser)
Currently the only supported browser for key generation is Firefox. For any other browser please refer to step 5.2 (the manual process).
- Creating a certificate from a CSR (Create certificate from a Certificate Signing Request in PKCS#10 format)
5.1) Create a browser certificate (automatic process)
You need to input the credentials you received in the invitation email. Then click on "Send Certificate Request" to retrieve your certificate. You will see a message saying "Key generation process may take some time…", after that your certificate will be installed in your browser.
5.2) Create a certificate from a CSR (manual process)
Some browsers do not support key generation and therefore you will have to carry out the key generation process yourself. To be able to generate a key pair, you need to have OPENSSL installed. *nix platforms are usually bundled with OPENSSL, for Windows please visit click here
- Generate a new private key and Certificate Signing Request
openssl req -out CSR.csr -new -newkey rsa:2048 -nodes -keyout privateKey.key
Please fill out the information requested for the CSR.
1) The Common Name (e.g. server FQDN or YOUR name) should be (i.e the username received in the invitation email)
2) You have just generated a private key for your BPKI certificate. Please keep it safely and back it up. In case the key is compromised, please send an email immediately to
, we shall revoke your certificate.
3) You should leave the challenge password blank otherwise the system will ask for the challenge password everytime the certificate is used.
- Next, navigate to https://externalra.afrinic.net/externalra-gui/facelet/enroll-csrcert.xhtml
Input the credentials received in your invitation email and click "browse" to select the CSR freshly generated.
Make sure you select "PEM" and click on "Send Certificate Request". A certificate in pem format will be downloaded. Save it to the same folder as the CSR and private key generated under the name .pem.
Convert the PEM certificate into a PKCS#12 format (p12). To be able to do this, you will need to have the CA certificate of the client certificate. Copy and save the memberca certificate as "memberca.pem" under the same folder as above. And execute the following command:
openssl pkcs12 -export -out .p12 -inkey privateKey.key -in .pem -certfile memberca.pem Output: your certificate in p12 format .p12
- Now you need to import the certificate in your keychain or browser certificate keystore. To import a certificate in your browser:
- For Firefox:
- Linux: open Edit -> Preferences -> Advanced -> Encryption -> View Certificates
Windows: open Tools -> Options -> Advanced -> Certificates -> Manage Certificates
MAC: open Firefox -> Preferences -> Advanced -> Encryption->View Certificates - click import and enter the filename (mycert.p12 or mycert.pfx on a MAC)
- Linux: open Edit -> Preferences -> Advanced -> Encryption -> View Certificates
- For Chrome:
- Go to preferences
- Select "Show advanced settings" and under HTTPS/SSL click "manage certificate".
- Import the certificate into your login keychain.
- For MAC Safari open a Terminal
'open' mycert.pfx
Open recognizes either the .pfx or .p12 extension and will open the keychain so you can import the certificate.
Import the certificate into your login keychain.
Even though you can import you certificate to a series of different browsers, the only currently supported browsers to access BPKI-restricted sections of MyAFRINIC are Chrome and Firefox.
Bravo! You now have a BPKI certificate installed in your browser and you can now securely authenticate yourself to MyAFRINIC.
