Dimitar Berbatov scored on his return to White Hart Lane as Fulham secured a famous 1-0 victory over Tottenham Hotspur on Sunday afternoon.
Following a largely uneventful first half, the Bulgarian finished neatly from Sascha Riether's cross on 52 minutes to earn his side a well earned three points in North London.
Martin Jol's team were organised and disciplined throughout, with Spurs' attacking threat well neutralised, while they were also threatening going forward, with Ashkan Dejagah and Damien Duff each putting in a tireless shift on the flanks.
The home side twice came close to an equaliser through Jermain Defoe, only to find Mark Schwarzer in inspired form as the Whites held on to move back into the top half of the Barclays Premier League table.
Jol named an unchanged side from the one that drew 2-2 with Sunderland more than two weeks ago, while Eyong Enoh made the matchday squad for the first time as he took his place on the bench.
Spurs kicked off and within the first minute Gareth Bale capitalised on a piece of miscontrol from John Arne Riise, but Brede Hangeland got back to deny the in-form Welshman a shot on goal at the expense of a corner.
The home side were enjoying plenty of the ball and came within a whisker of taking the lead in the seventh minute when Bale's header from a Gylfi Sigurdsson corner was headed off the line by Riether.
Tottenham were looking to play everything through Mousa Dembele in the middle of the park, with the former Fulham favourite at the heart of most of their play. The Belgian was proving difficult to shrug off the ball and Dejagah was shown a yellow card for his efforts to do just that on 16 minutes.
Neither side was having much luck creating chances, with wild efforts by Bale and Steve Sidwell both flying over the crossbar in a first half low on quality in the final third.
A pinpoint crossfield pass from Giorgos Karagounis on 43 minutes found Berbatov down the right flank and the former White Hart Lane hero's centred ball almost caught Hugo Lloris out, but the Frenchman cleared it at the second attempt after spilling initially.
Sigurdsson went as close as anyone to scoring as stoppage time approached but while his shot was hit firm and true, it was never likely to trouble Schwarzer as it flew high and wide.
Andre Villas-Boas made an attacking alteration at half-time, with the familiar face of Clint Dempsey taking to the field in place of captain Michael Dawson.
The first shot on target of the second period came on 51 minutes as Schwarzer comfortably held Bale's low drive, before Fulham immediately went up the other end to open the scoring.
Dejagah played in Riether - who had made a trademark run in behind – and the German slid the ball across the face for Berbatov to tuck home an effort beyond Lloris and inside the far post. Our top scorer's celebration was muted in respect to his former employers.
The goal seemed to inject a huge confidence boost into Fulham's play. First, Sidwell's deflected effort from distance needed two attempts from Lloris to claim the greasy ball, before Hangeland headed marginally wide following a corner.
Villas-Boas made another positive change shortly after the hour mark as Defoe came on for Sigurdsson, before another substitution was made on 67 minutes in the guise of Tom Carroll, with Dembele the man replaced.
Defoe had a great opportunity to equalise on 70 minutes when the ball fell to him inside the penalty area but his shot was too close to Schwarzer who blocked magnificently. Then, neat footwork from Carroll saw the youngster evade two challenges 40 yards from goal which gave him the space to play Bale in. Luckily for Fulham, Schwarzer read the situation impeccably and was out quickly to smother.
Jol then played his first card as Enoh was given a debut as he took Karagounis' place in the Fulham engine room.
The game was almost won for the away side with five minutes left but Dejagah couldn't get enough of an angle on his header having risen well to connect with Bryan Ruiz's cross. He got it back across the face with Lloris stranded, but it was lacking the diagonal trajectory required to find the net.
Fulham were holding firm but it required a world-class save from Schwarzer to deny Defoe once more on 90 minutes. Bale had broken with pace before squaring to the England man who looked certain to score only for the Australian custodian to deny him superbly.
A few more valuable seconds were then taken up as Ruiz made way for Urby Emanuelson and Fulham saw the four minutes of added time come and go to secure a huge three points.

Using eCigs to Quit Smoking, or the umpteenth nic replacement...Successful?
My true adventures of quitting smoking using eCigs. Started with Blu disposable regular, just started maintenance with White Cloud Fling lite. After careful consideration, ordered a starter g6 kit from halo, along with 4 mini tanks, and 3 supplemental juices of differing strengths.
GOAL: quit smoking, vape down from 24 to 18, using 12mg maintenance. Eventually vape down to 6mg, and mix in some flavored 0mg. When only vaping 0 mg, plan to wean off vaping altogether. (I know that's not everyone's goal, but it's mine).

Corning tm glass lenses.
These glasses are the smallest, most compact and durable "portable" reading glasses I have ever worn. A bit pricey, however, the cost becomes irrelevant considering their excellent quality and size. The case, however, is another story. It is made of plastic. The spring and hinge mechanism in the pop-up lid is poorly constructed and easily broken. The case should be made of a more durable component, such as aluminum. Otherwise, I am extremely happy with the product and recommend it to anyone looking for a portable pair of reading glasses.
I love these glasses for being small, durable, travel glasses, they are by far the smallest ones I have ever found and being about the size of a key fob they fit nicely into my front pocket. and yet when fully opened they fit comfortably allowing me to see whatever I'm reading. I have recommended these to my family and friends and would recommend them to anyone who asked. Mark
Optically spot-on, very small and secure in any pocket, the best quality reading glasses I have ever owned.
Very neat, good quality reading glasses. Take up very little room in your pocket. The optical quality of the lens make them ideal for reading a menu in low light. Overall very pleased with these folding glasses.


text: 13 Oct 2013 07:30 Etihad Cargo, part of UAE flag carrier Etihad Airways, has posted record monthly uplift figures for September of 45,175 tonnes, a 42 per cent increase on the same month in 2012 (31,826 tonnes). Etihad Airways' Chief Strategy and Planning Officer, Kevin Knight, said: "This is the biggest monthly tonnage Etihad Cargo has ever carried across its network, and that's a reflection of improved capacity utilisation on our freighter fleet, more cargo in the bellyhold of our passenger aircraft, greater synergies with our global partners, and, importantly, a well-performing charter business." The carrier flew 77 charter missions in the month, up 185 per cent on September 2012 (27 charters). Notable charter operations included routing 200 tonnes of humanitarian and food aid from Abu Dhabi to Ouagadougou in West Africa, and transporting racing cars and spares from the United Kingdom and Italy to Singapore, then onwards to Seoul, South Korea. The airline also performed a number of VIP cargo charters. Strong demand out of Hong Kong, China, India and Germany played a role in Etihad Cargo carrying the record loads to and from its Abu Dhabi hub. Mr Knight said: "A key driver in cargo continuing to perform well is down to us getting closer to our customers, understanding their challenges, and coming to them with competitive solutions, on routings they want, while adding value to their businesses." He added the Q4 2013 outlook was positive, helped by the integration of subsidiary Etihad Airport Services – Cargo into the business, which would continue to deliver benefits for Etihad Cargo as well as other new freighter operators through Abu Dhabi. Mr Knight concluded: "Looking ahead to the end of Q4, we expect to see higher than average seasonal load factors." Contact Us As a truly international airline, we have a genuinely global presence.

Power Flowers to domesticate wind turbines
Article Summary
Arguments still rage on, but it's generally accepted that we need to roll out more sustainable power solutions and break away from our reliance on fuels that are going to disappear one day. As advances in solar, wave and wind technologies gather pace, Dutch design house NL Architects has been looking at ways to bring wind turbines closer to where the power they produce is needed, instead of being located on remote hillsides. Inspired by a vertical-axis turbine called Eddy, the team thinks the answer may lie in tree-like creations named Power Flowers.

Bummer. A guy who has always been great to me personally and a critical part of my Little Brown Jug research. One of my favorite photos, here�s Falk smiling as he�s grabbing the key for the case holding the jug at Minnesota last year:
Via U-M Media Relations:
Equipment Manager Jon Falk Announces Retirement Following 2013 Football Season
ANN ARBOR, Mich. — Longtime University of Michigan equipment manager Jon Falk announced Monday (July 22) his retirement effective at the conclusion of the 2013 football season. Falk will complete 40 years of service to Michigan Athletics and the U-M football program.
�I remember the day that Bo Schembechler interviewed me and said that working at the University of Michigan would present great opportunities for my career,� said Falk. �He offered me the position but I decided that staying home to care for my mom and grandmother was more important. My mom woke up at 4 a.m. and came to me with tears in her eyes and said, �Jon, you are going to Michigan. Bo and the University of Michigan are going to take care of you and this will be a great career move.� As I reflect on my nearly 40 years at Michigan, I have been fortunate to work with some great coaches, administrators and thousands of players. After talking with Dave Brandon about my retirement, I realized that Bo and my mother were right. Dave and Michigan have taken care of me. I�m appreciative of all that I learned, was a part of and contributed to at Michigan. This is a special place and I will always love Michigan and Michigan Football.�
�Jon has given so much of his life to Michigan Football and we are all grateful to him for his dedication, passion and loyal service to our championship culture,� said head coach Brady Hoke. �He is a big part of this program and his colorful personality will be missed around Schembechler Hall, Michigan Stadium and on the road in opposing venues. We are happy that Jon will be able to enjoy retirement with his wife Cheri and family, but that is on hold until he helps us chase another Big Ten Championship this fall.�
�Jon�s four decades of service to Michigan Football and our department is unprecedented and has been matched by only a few former employees,� said Dave Brandon, the Donald R. Shepherd Director of Athletics. �His stories are legendary and Jon�s passion for his job and the sports equipment industry will be missed by many of those in and around our football program. Jon has been the one constant around our program when all former players, coaches and administrators come back to visit. We wish Jon a wonderful retirement � but only after he completes his 40th season helping equip our student-athletes and coaches.�
Falk is responsible for the overall budgeting of the athletic department�s equipment needs with apparel providers. He oversees a staff of three full-time assistant equipment managers and a large group of student workers.
Falk was honored for his dedication to the athletic department in 1994, receiving an honorary �M� from the Letterwinners M Club. In addition, the U-M Club of Greater Detroit established the annual Hatch-Falk Scholarship for a Student Football Manager in 2000.
Falk authored a book, �If These Walls Could Talk,� with long-time Detroit Tigers PR Director Dan Ewald in 2010. Falk also made speaking engagements to U-M Alumni groups about his career behind-the-scenes with Michigan football.
A native of Oxford, Ohio, Falk graduated from Talawanda High School (1967) � where he was inducted into the school�s Hall of Fame in 2012 � and earned his degree in physical education from Miami University (1971). He worked as a student manager at Miami in football and baseball as an undergraduate. After graduation, Falk accepted an assistant equipment manager position at Miami before head coach Bo Schembechler called and offered Falk his current position at Michigan in 1974.
One of the most respected equipment managers in the nation, Falk was executive director of the Athletic Equipment Managers Association (AEMA) for 24 years and was one of the organization�s founding members. He named the association�s 2001 Glen Sharp National Equipment Manager of the Year award and received the organization�s Lifetime Achievement Award in 2005.
Falk and his wife, the former Cheri Boychuck of Ann Arbor, reside in Pinckney. They have three children, Joe Winkle, Nicki Pfefferle and Katie Falk, and two grandchildren, Joey Winkle and Abby Pfefferle.
Falk will remain in a consulting role following the season until a successor is determined and transitioned into the position.
Following are additional comments from those who worked closely with Falk during his long and storied Michigan career:
Jon was an outstanding equipment manager. He was well-organized, extremely well-prepared and on game day he was an advantage for Michigan.
What I appreciated most however was his presence and his voice in the locker room. His mantra was �the best (championship) ring is the next one,� and that message resonated with the Michigan teams down through the years. – Lloyd Carr, U-M Football Coach (1995-2007)
Jon has been a great friend to Ann, myself and the entire Moeller family.
I think that Jon was the most knowledgeable equipment manager in the profession. He was the person that his peers across the country would lean on and ask questions of because Jon knew the answer. Jon knew how to handle the job and his responsibilities. You only had to tell him once and it was taken care.
Jon was great interacting with all of the coaches and the players on the football team. He cared about everyone that was associated with the program, treated them with professionalism and always helped Michigan football be the best.
Jon provided 40 years of great service and will always be remembered as a great Michigan Man. – Gary Moeller, U-M Football Coach (1990-95)
Jon is the last of the Bo era, forty years is a long time to be associated with something that you love. I know that Bo thought the world of Jon. They worked so well together and were best of friends. No one told a Bo story better than Jon. I'm happy for Jon and I know that Bo was always proud of Jon. Jon and I cried when he told me but I'm happy for Jon and his family … he will be able to enjoy his retirement. – Cathy Schembechler, Bo�s Widow
It is virtually impossible for any former Michigan football player from the past 40 years to talk about Michigan football and not have the name �Big Jonny� pass their lips. He's easily the most important guy at Schembechler Hall that you can talk to today if you want to know about Michigan tradition. One of my favorite things to do when I go back to Ann Arbor is to sit in Big Jon's office and listen to him tell stories … Bo stories especially. Even though I think he's softened up just a little over the years, he's still a man whose respect you have to earn, no matter who you are … and he's loyal to a fault. His impact on and contributions to Michigan football will never be forgotten. – Desmond Howard, U-M Heisman Trophy Winner (1989-91), ESPN College Football GameDay Analyst (2005-current)
When Jonny was hired by Bo back in the early 70′s from Oxford, Ohio … he immediately became committed to Michigan. He tells the story about his mother coming into his bedroom, late at night and telling Jon that he should take the job at Michigan because she felt strongly that Bo would take care of him. Jon was not sure he was going to take the job because it meant he would have to leave his mother in Oxford. After she told him it was the right thing for him, tearfully, he took the job and the rest is history.
In all the years I've been around Michigan football I'm not sure anyone other than coaches have had more impact on the Michigan football player than Jon Falk.
He is a legendary equipment guy. Not only was he great at Michigan, but across the country, his peers in the same capacity looked up to him, and sought him out for advice.
Jon loved Michigan football. When he first hired on, I can guarantee there wasn't anything he wouldn't do to make Michigan football better. He protected it like a mother hen. He promoted it like he was the CEO. It was his family, and he made sure he let anyone who came through the doors know it should be just as important to them.
Jon is part of the fabric of the Michigan tradition. He traces his roots back to Bo Schembechler. He is as Michigan as the winged helmet. An unforgettable character. A professional who changed the perception of the job. A good friend.
Through five football coaches and seven athletic directors, Jon has been as solid as a rock through all the change. He's been in the engine room of Michigan football and he's kept it running without a hitch since the day he arrived.- Jim Brandstatter, Former U-M Offensive Lineman (1969-72), U-M Radio Network (mid-1980s-current), U-M Football Coaches Show (1980-current)
Big Jon has been Michigan football for the past 40 years. He has served four decades of players and coaches at every level. From welcoming every new class of freshmen football players to Michigan to working with Bo, Mo, Lloyd, Rich and Brady, Big Jon has touched them all.
I had the pleasure of being around Jon for five years as a player and three as a young coach. Big Jon was always so much more than just our equipment manager. He was a friendly face who you could always get a straight answer from – whether it was about football or life. From playing the old Bob Ufer tapes in the locker room Ohio State week, to making sure you kept your locker clean (or you got wet clothes back the next day), Jon was always teaching. He talked to the players about championships and rings (his next one was always his favorite one) and demanded excellence in the locker room. He always had a feel for the team's pulse and knew how to relate to all the different personalities. He had a special relationship with all the quarterbacks over the years and I was lucky enough to be part of that club. My best summer job ever was working for Big Jon the summer I was rehabilitating my knee. I didn't get much work done but I got my Masters in Michigan football from being around him.
Big Jon has been the one constant who has always welcomed the former players back to Schembechler Hall with open arms and a big smile. It was like you never left.
Big Jon has been a legend in the locker room and a great ambassador for Michigan in the college football world. He is a true Michigan Man. Thanks for all the years and sacrifices you gave to our program. – John Wangler, Former U-M Quarterback (1977-80)
When Jon Falk retires after this Michigan football season, it will be an end of an era for so many student-athletes and friends that have known him. He is a storyteller extraordinaire that worked every day of his professional career doing his best to help Michigan win championships. Jon will always bleed Maize and Blue. – Bruce Madej, U-M Associate Athletic Director (1978-current)

The company announced several months ago that they were in trouble and cuts had to be made. There is plenty of blame, but the unions are a piece of the puzzle. They very clearly said they had to shut their doors if a deal wasn't made by Thursday and that is what happened.
+1All employees at all levels have one thing to bring to their employer: value.
The market place decides the level of value by how many people can bring a certain skill set to the table. At the hourly wage level, the employee brings time to the table. The problem is, there are one helluva lot of people willing and able to barter their time for pay. There are fewer who can manage an entire department. There are fewer who can manage an entire plant. Likewise an entire division. Likewise the whole enterprise. The fewer there are to fill a critical slot, the higher the pay goes. With that higher pay goes lost weekends and holidays when there are power outages, labor unrest, product rollouts, machinery upgrades, etc. But at the bottom, where the pay is less, so is the responsibility less. Come what may, the day shift clocks out at 3:00 pm and need not reappear until 7:00 am the next morning. -
+1From the research I just did showed that the workers at the factory were making an average of 17.60 an hour. I hardly call that minimum wage. The company could not sustain them and asked them to take an 8 percent cut which is still well above minimum wage. I hate to say it but they should of taken a temporary (yes temporary because that is what the company said) cut in pay versus nothing at all.

18,000 people lost there jobs because 5000 bakers would not take a pay cut of 8% for the 1st year in turn for a 2% raise the next year, 3% the 2nd year, and 7% the 3rd year.
So instead of a 4% raise in 3 years they get a 100% pay cut now.
Yeah those Unions really know how to support their members/

Top Definition
A popular 1977 Romantic Comedy film directed and co-written by Woody Allen. Won 1977 Oscars/Academy Awards for Best Actress (Diane Keaton), Best Director, Best Screenplay, and Best Picture. The movie llustrates the ups and downs of a relationship between an adventurous wannabe-singer (Keaton) and an introverted cynic (Allen). Sort of like "When Harry Met Sally" but better.
That Annie Hall movie makes me feel all warm and tingly inside.

Ambassador - Permanent Representative: H.E. Andrej Logar
New York, 18 October 2011 – Ms. Simona Leskovar, Deputy Permanent Representative of Slovenia to the UN addressed the UN General Assembly Sixth Committee on the issue of the law of transboundary aquifers.
In her statement she stressed that the Republic of Slovenia welcomes and supports the efforts to build on the existing international legislation on water protection with topics addressing transboundary aquifers management in greater detail. Although major progress has been achieved in cooperation on joint surface water management in many parts of the region, there is a noted lack of transboundary cooperation and adequate solutions for managing joint groundwater aquifers.

Golf is a fun game to play that is challenging. However, it can also be a frustrating one. It seems like the better you get, the more serious you take it. Well, I do anyway.
This website is dedicated to the golfer. Newbie beginner, junior golfer, women golfers and advanced golfers. Hopefully there is content on this website which can help any golfer.
There are a lot of things one needs to learn about playing golf.
Build a Foundation by Learning Golf Fundamentals
First, every sport has it foundation. You can't start playing the game without knowing the fundamentals. Fundamentals are a lot more important than you may think. To start, a proper stance and grip are needed for a good golf swing. Instructions, reading or videos can help give you basics to help develop your golf skills
Golf is a Mental Game
Golf is a lot more than club clubs, golf balls, and beautiful golf course with its green fairways. To play golf to its fullest, the game requires strategy and cunning. Making mental calculations before even hitting the golf ball is necessary prior to making those great golf shots. In addition, the golfer needs to, keep a calm and cool head. Your mental game will help you to maintain concentration on the golf shot you will need to make and help you not to be distracted.
Course Management is About Knowing the Golf Course
So what do we mean by course management? Well it mainly means a good golfer must be able to adapt their golf game to the unique aspects of the golf course they are playing. Knowing how to play a golf course in the most efficient way you possibly will help any golfer to acquire a good golf score. A golfer should always have a plan the golf course and the round which they are playing. Even more importantly, for every shot, the golfer needs to have a plan and a target in mind.
Common Problems When Playing Golf
Needless to say, golf certainly is not an exact science. The vast majority of serious golfers have practiced for years in order to perfect their golf swing and to improve their golf game to the next level. But, as in any sport, problems do occur. Forgetting the basic fundamentals and golf mechanics is the primary problem encountered. When this happens their golf game becomes erratic and sloppy. Going back to the basics, getting instruction, reading a golf book or viewing a golf training video may help address the more common problems golfers may face. Correcting these mistakes is possible and will help a golfer to get back on the path toward playing better golf again.
Knowing the More Common Golf Mistakes
All golfers know, that sometimes it is just difficult to hit a good golf shot. Sometimes a golfer just hacks away at a golf ball wishing they will hit a good golf shot and be happy with the results even if only for a few minutes until the next shot. However, if the golfer knows the most common golf mistakes people make playing the game, the golfer can take action to fix the mistakes and have a more satisfying and rewarding golf game.

Maurer set to make leap in Major League debut
If Mariners prospect Brandon Maurer needs a blueprint for his Major League debut Thursday against the Athletics, he won't need to look any further than opposing starter A.J. Griffin.
Griffin, 25, started last season in Double-A before quickly bursting onto the scene with Oakland, winning his first six decisions en route to a 7-1 record and 3.06 ERA over 15 starts in a dazzling rookie campaign.
Maurer is looking to make a similar jump this season -- albeit while skipping a "minor" step.
The 22-year-old will take the hill in the 12:35 p.m. PT series finale without ever having thrown a pitch at the Triple-A level. After being named the Southern League Pitcher of the Year with Double-A Jackson in 2012, Maurer earned a spot in the Mariners rotation with an impressive Spring Training in which he went 3-1 with a 1.50 ERA over seven appearances.
"I'm getting excited," said Maurer, who will have the support Thursday of 24 family members and friends driving up to Oakland from Newport Beach, Calif. "I think it's helped to [be here a couple of days] to kind of get comfortable."
Griffin's rise to the Majors a season ago also seemed to come out of nowhere, with A's manager Bob Melvin even admitting he couldn't have picked the right-hander out of a lineup prior to his midseason arrival.
"I didn't know anything about A.J. Griffin. I didn't know him in Spring Training, couldn't tell you what he looked like until he got here," Melvin said. "Now I know quite a bit about him. He just loves to pitch."
Called up in mid-June due to injuries at the big league level, Griffin made immediate contributions to Oakland's surprise postseason run. Along with his impressive regular-season resume, Griffin turned in a respectable performance in his postseason debut, allowing just two runs over five innings against the Tigers in his lone American League Division Series start.
"From the moment he got here, he was pitching in high-pressure games," Melvin said. "He's not afraid to pitch in those types of situations. He's just a big leaguer now, and I think he gained a lot of experience because of it."
Mariners: Shoppach to start finale behind plate
Catcher Kelly Shoppach, the lone Mariners position player not to appear in one of the team's first three games, is expected to get the start Thursday behind the plate.
Along with giving Maurer the benefit of working with a veteran catcher in his debut, manager Eric Wedge wants to make sure his bench players stay fresh without the daily at-bats they were getting in Spring Training.
"Working off Saturday, that was the last time everybody played in that exhibition [in Salt Lake City]," Wedge said. "We don't want too much time between now and then, [we want to] make sure we keep 'em sharp and get everybody in there."
Athletics: Sizemore makes long-awaited return
Starting at second base on Wednesday, Scott Sizemore was just happy to be back in a Major League game for the first time in a year and a half. Lining a double down the left-field line in his first at-bat just served as an added bonus.
Sizemore, who missed all of last season after tearing the ACL in his left knee on the first day of spring workouts, finished 1-for-4 on Wednesday. The 28-year-old earned a roster spot out of Spring Training, playing his way into a platoon situation with Eric Sogard at second base.
"To get through Spring Training when you still have trepidation about an injury and get out on the field for a regular-season game," Melvin said, "it's got to be rewarding for him, for a guy that put himself in this position again."
Worth noting
• Maurer is the first Mariners pitcher promoted directly from Double-A to the Major League rotation since 1993, when Mike Hampton and John Cummings both made the jump.
• In two starts against the Mariners last season, Griffin went 2-0 with a 1.64 ERA while striking out 11 batters over 11 innings.

Wikipedia: The Yuma Territorial Prison was a prison in the Arizona Territory in the United States. Located in Yuma, Arizona, the prison accepted its first inmate on July 1, 1876. For the next 33 years 3,069 prisoners, including 29 women, served sentences there for crimes ranging from murder to polygamy. The prison was under continuous construction with labor provided by the prisoners. In 1909, the last prisoner left the Territorial Prison for the newly constructed prison located in Florence, Arizona. It is now operated as an historical museum by Arizona State Parks as Yuma Territorial Prison State Historic Park, a state park of Arizona.
The United States is one of the most diverse countries on earth, jam packed full of amazing sights from St. Patrick's cathedral in New York to Mount Hollywood California.The Northeast region is where it all started. Thirteen British colonies fought the American Revolution from here and won their independence in the first successful colonial rebellion in history. Take a look at these rolling hills carpeted with foliage along the Hudson river here, north of New York City.The American south is known for its polite people and slow pace of life. Probably they move slowly because it's so hot. Southerners tend not to trust people from "up north" because they talk too fast. Here's a cemetery in Georgia where you can find graves of soldiers from the Civil War.The West Coast is sort of like another country that exists to make the east coast jealous. California is full of nothing but grizzly old miners digging for gold, a few gangster rappers, and then actors. That is to say, the West Coast functions as the imagination of the US, like a weird little brother who teases everybody then gets famous for making freaky art.The central part of the country is flat farmland all the way over to the Rocky Mountains. Up in the northwest corner you can find creative people in places like Portland and Seattle, along with awesome snowboarding and good beer. Text by Steve Smith.

Speedo dominate competitive swimming with a staggering history in relation to the Olympic Games. Since the 1950s Speedo have had a powerful connection with Olympic athletes, culminating in the Beijing Olympic Games where 92% of all swimming medals were won by athletes wearing Speedo swimwear.
Speedo use the ground-breaking technology they develop for athletes in their commercial ranges to give you a competitive edge and a more enjoyable swimming experience. For example, the Endurance range is developed to be chlorine resistant so you won't have to replace your swimwear time and again.

What is the maximum speed for timing pulleys/belts (r.p.m or meters per sec) Thanks |
Admin (Admin) Board Administrator Username: Admin Post Number: 461 Registered: 10-2004 |
Hi, Our supplier does not specify a figure so we would not recommend a speed of greater than 80m/s for our range of timing belts and pulleys. |

Can you source double sided timing belts (5mm pitch)? |
Admin (Admin) Board Administrator Username: Admin Post Number: 501 Registered: 10-2004 |
Ewan, Not currently but we are looking to extend our range of timing belts and pulleys in the future including double sided belts to allow a third pulley to be used i.e. as a belt tensioner. |
Robin Fryer Unregistered guest |
Can you tell me if how one of your aluminium timed pulleys might fit onto a shaft, does it have its own method of axial location? Also i saw that there was no pitch specified for the belts or the pulleys, how can i tell if they match? |
Admin (Admin) Board Administrator Username: Admin Post Number: 576 Registered: 10-2004 |
Robin, The timing pulleys fit onto a shaft using the supplied grub screw and hex key. The shaft hole is pre drilled but can be enlarge within limits as required. We only supply one pitch of timing belts and pulleys but a good question, they are T5 pitch. We will update the site to reflect this. |
R.Kenward Unregistered guest |
Have attempted to use Aluminium timing pulleys and toothed timing belts to drive the x and y axes of my Chester mill (stepper motor drive, cnc control). Initially the pulleys were separated just enough to put a slight tension on the belt, but in use the belt rose up on the pulleys and jumped one or two teeth per rev. I increased the belt tension with a brass wheel in contact with the outer belt surface on a hinged sprung mount to give adjustable belt tension, and increased the tension until the belt no longer jumped, and this appeared at first to solve the problem completely, however after a few days use, the belts have stretched resulting in tooth jumping all the time. I have thought about a possible remedy and wondered if instead of increasing the tension I place an idler wheel in contact with the back of the belt at the point at which it makes contact with the pulley, so as to physically prevent the belt from rising and so stop tooth skipping. Do you think this would work or do you know any alternative remedy? |
Admin (Admin) Board Administrator Username: Admin Post Number: 607 Registered: 10-2004 |
Hi, Belts rising up over the pulley flange is where they are not correctly tensioned. Stepper motors are really harsh on belts, the pulsing nature of stepper motors with the fast acceleration / deceleration can put stresses on the belt than exceeds its performance rating. You could try slowing up the ramp times but it is quite possible that you need stronger belts. Unfortunately we do not supply any other versions of pulleys and belts although we are looking to source them in the future. The ones we supply are T5, AT5 are stronger or you could use wider belts or thicker belts. |
Dvg (Dvg) Member Username: Dvg Post Number: 2 Registered: 3-2008 |
can I glue timing belts to make them longer and (even if you do not advise) what glue shall I use. What are they made of? |
Admin (Admin) Board Administrator Username: Admin Post Number: 746 Registered: 10-2004 |
As you did not leave an Email address, we cannot reply personally to you. Our timing belts cannot be cut and glued as they contain a number of steel wire strands for strength. |
alan battersby Unregistered guest |
I want to get a 6:1 ratio with 10mm timing pulleys without having to make a compound. I see that you do not specify a 60 teeth pulley in your stock list. Have you any thoughts about where I could get such a pulley? |
Admin (Admin) Board Administrator Username: Admin Post Number: 819 Registered: 10-2004 |
Alan, Our supplier does not produce anything larger than this so sorry we are unable to help. |
Martyn Anthony Stevens Unregistered guest |
I need a toothed belt, 5mm pitch, but only 15cm in circumference. Is it possible to cut and rejoin a larger belt? |
Admin (Admin) Board Administrator Username: Admin Post Number: 937 Registered: 10-2004 |
Martyn, The smallest belt we stock is 165mm in circumference. Our timing belts cannot be cut and glued as they contain a number of steel wire strands for strength. |
Michael Watts Unregistered guest |
Hello, I recently ordered some timing pulleys, they were on the order number MA76AE20013798. Your website specified that the parts 4620-110, 4620-120, would not be bored through, however when they arrived we discovered that they had been bored. Therefore they are not ideal for the purpose we require them for. This has caused an inconvenience because we would have to fabricate sleeves to rectify this problem. Regards, Mike Watts and Colleagues |
Admin (Admin) Board Administrator Username: Admin Post Number: 1051 Registered: 10-2004 |
Mike, Apologies for that. It appears that despite the manufacturer quoting exact dimensions, they now advise that dimensions are subject to change. We have resolved this with the manufacturer to prevent this from happening again. We will quite happily replace your pulleys if you can return them and we will of course refund the 1st class letter post cost as well. |

Are MFA timing pulleys compatible with synchroflex timing belts and vice versa? Is the toothform identical between MFA and synchroflex products? Is it so that the synchroflex belts are less likely to stretch compared to MFA belts because of the steel wiring? |
Admin (Admin) Board Administrator Username: Admin Post Number: 1138 Registered: 10-2004 |
Hi, MFA timing belts and pulleys are T5 profile so any of the T5 Synchroflex range can also be used with MFA products. Both MFA and Synchroflex belts incorporate steel wires for tensile strength. |
Paulsc (Paulsc) Member Username: Paulsc Post Number: 1 Registered: 11-2009 |
what is the diameter of the boss on the 44teeth MFA T5x10mm? what is the price for the 48 teeth Timing Pulley Synchroflex T5x10mm? Do you have in stock? If no how much will it take? thanks Paul Scicluna |
Admin (Admin) Board Administrator Username: Admin Post Number: 1150 Registered: 10-2004 |
Paul, We tried to answer your Email but it kept bouncing back. Here is our reply: The 44T pulley has a boss of approx 15mm The price of a T5 x 10mm x 48T are £9.12 each excl VAT and carriage. Please also note that this size does not come with flanges. |
John Lukey Unregistered guest |
Hi, Are your Synchroflex T5x10mm x 32 and 36 tooth timing pulleys available in Execution 2? thanks. Also price for each of these. Thanks, John. |
Admin (Admin) Board Administrator Username: Admin Post Number: 1153 Registered: 10-2004 |
Execution 2 is only available for sizes above 42T. We may be able to get specials made for you but there would be a minimum order quantity that may not be of use to you if you only need a few. |

CARLOS SANTANA to cover The Beatles, Def Leppard, AC/DC & more on new album
by admin on Jun.25, 2010, under news
Carlos Santana was initially intimidated by mentor Clive Davis' pitch for his next album — another "Supernatural"-style all-star collaboration, but this time on a collection of iconic rock songs by the likes of the Beatles, the Rolling Stones, Led Zeppelin, AC/DC and others.
"I was like, 'No, I don't know if I want to do this one, Clive. This one's a little challenging,'" the guitarist and bandleader told Billboard.com.
"And he would stay on the phone for at least 45 minutes to an hour, three times in one year, and I was like, 'Oh, lord…' But then I started realizing that someone with that intense passion of commitment couldn't be wrong, so I had to trust him. And it was incredible."
The album — Santana's first since "All That I Am" in 2005 — is due out in September and is not yet titled. The track list is being finalized as well, but during sessions Santana reunited with "Smooth" partner Rob Thomas on Cream's "Sunshine of Your Love" and worked with Joe Cocker on Jimi Hendrix's "Little Wing," Scott Weiland on the Rolling Stones' "Can't You Hear Me Knocking," Chris Daughtry on Def Leppard's "Photograph," Soundgarden's Chris Cornell on Led Zeppelin's "Whole Lotta Love," Papa Roach's Jacoby Shaddix on Deep Purple's "Smoke on the Water" and rapper Nas, who lays down rhymes on AC/DC's "Back in Black."
Santana chose half of the songs while Davis, Sony Music's chief creative officer, picked the other half. Davis, who originally signed Santana in the 1960s, masterminded his 1999 comeback "Supernatural," a worldwide smash that also garnered nine Grammys.
"What I brought to the table is my heart, knowing that I complement, I don't compete," Santana said of the recording sessions. "I brought my heart, trusting that there's enough in me of purity and innocence and genuineness that I couldn't possible, excuse the expression, fuck it up. I know Eric (Clapton). I know Jeff Beck. I know Jimmy Page. And they know me. I have supreme certainty and confidence that they're going to say, 'Hey man, I love what you did with my song."
While he considers every song "incredible," Santana said his very favorite is the Beatles' "While My Guitar Gently Weeps," which he recorded with India Arie and cellist Yo Yo Ma.
"I sent the song to George Harrison's widow, Olivia, and I got back an email that says, 'Carlos, I listened to the song and I started crying and jumping with joy at the same time. And I want you to know that George really loved you, because he understood your passion for compassion.' And I was like, 'Bam!' that's like George Harrison himself, through his beautiful wife, validating my existence and what I did with that song."
Santana plans to preview some of the covers during his upcoming summer tour with Steve Winwood, which gets under way June 30 in Saint Paul, Minn. He also plans to have Winwood "join my band" for collaborations he hopes are "totally different" than what fans might expect.
"I would prefer not to do Steve Winwood or Santana songs with him," Santana explained. "I would like to go to the Bob Marley repertoire or Marvin Gaye or African music by King Sunny Ade or really, really obscure other-side-of-the-tracks. So I'm crossing my fingers."
After the summer tour with Winwood, Santana is returning to Las Vegas in August for his second residency at the Hard Rock Hotel. Santana is touring Europe in September and October, including a stop at London's O2 Arena.
Santana has another album ready to go as well, an all-instrumental set called "Shape Shifter," which he recorded with his band and he plans to release after the next album has run its course.

DHS, NIST lynchpins helping cyber order succeed
Thursday - 2/14/2013, 6:24am EST
Jason Miller discusses his article on the Federal Drive
The White House's much anticipated Executive Order on cybersecurity depends on a simple premise: How well can the Homeland Security Department and the National Institute of Standards and Technology work with industry. DHS and NIST are the lynchpins to the collaborative effort to create voluntary standards and increase information sharing as called for in the new order and Presidential Policy directive.
Michael Daniel, the White House's cybersecurity coordinator, said the order calls for a "whole of government approach" to securing the nation's critical infrastructure. But DHS and NIST will do the heavy lifting across all three major sections of the strategy.
DHS will have an expanded role, but in many ways it's in addition to what it has been doing for a number of years as opposed to doing new stuff.
"One of the key tasks that need to be done, that is a heavy lift, from a difficulty standpoint, is the identification of critical infrastructure," said Bruce McConnell, a cybersecurity counselor for the National Protection and Programs directorate at DHS. "Section 9 of the order says identify those critical infrastructure entities who own systems and assets which if they were disrupted by cyber attack or incident would create a catastrophic event. We have a list of systems and assets today that we've done for other purposes, but not really focused on the cyber piece of it."
McConnell said a DHS led task force will talk with the critical infrastructure sectors and find out what they think their most critical systems and assets are and how are they being protected today.
DHS is facing several deadlines in the next six-to-eight months and already is hitting the ground running.
Among the requirements for DHS in the EO are to:
- Develop a description of the relationships in the federal government with the critical infrastructure security and resilience in 120 days.
- Complete the assessment of public-private partnership model and recommend ways to improve it in 150 days
- Develop a situational awareness capability for critical infrastructure in 240 days
- Update national infrastructure protection plan in 240 days
One area where the agency has begun work is around the expansion of the cyber information sharing program, now called the Enhanced Cyber Services program, instead of the Defense Industrial Base (DIB) pilot.
The order stated the goal is to share classified and unclassified cyber threat information with the private sector.
Jane Holl Lute, the deputy secretary at DHS, said the cybersecurity framework NIST will develop is an important piece to the expanding participation in the cyber threat information sharing program.
"These baseline security improvements will better position many firms to participate in the information sharing programs," she said. "For example, we've already begun with the Department of Energy a dialogue with the electricity sector and we look forward to continuing this effort. Similarly, we've been working with the Department of Treasury in the financial sector. And we will continue to work with all of the sector specific agencies and sector coordinating councils that represent industry to develop programs to assist companies with implementing the framework and identifying incentives for its adoption."
Ball in industry's court
McConnell added the information sharing program is open to all companies and DHS will help speed up the security clearance process for people in the company who will receive the information from the government.
"I think we are starting to see interest among the non-Defense industrial base companies in the [information sharing] program," McConnell said. "We are in the early stages, but expressions of interest have been quite positive." NIST and DHS also will work together to create the broad cybersecurity framework to secure critical infrastructure systems . Patrick Gallagher, the director of NIST, said the two organizations signed a memorandum of agreement earlier this week to ensure their efforts are aligned. NIST will continue to act as a convener and use a collaborative approach to pull together the best practices from across the community. The goal is to create a voluntary cybersecurity framework.
"The whole idea here is to empower industry to be responsive. So you have to put the performance goal out there and basically the ball goes entirely into industry's court," Gallagher said. "The extent to which they can provide a very robust framework will provide I think the best answer because it could minimize the need for additional regulatory action or other sort of unilateral action. It could enhance the fact this is being done as broadly as possible so the markets are wide open. So I think in some ways this is the most empowering way I could envision stepping out on this issue."

The extraordinary Swildens desk recreated
Article Summary
The Swilden desk - a flourish of metal in which the desk surface winds in on itself to become the chair - was originally commissioned in 1966 for the foyer of the then new Peugeot head office in Paris. Three desks were created and three receptionists were each seated at their very own work of art. Since they were decommissioned, the three extraordinary industrial chic desks have been so sought after at auction, that French furniture designer Furdess has negotiated with the original designer, Ben Swildens, to create a limited re-release of eight desks. Only three are still to be sold, with an asking price of EUR65,000 (US$87,000) a piece.

Comments: I was in the market for some good cheaper popping frogs and these seem like they would fit the bill. I was wrong these things suck. all of the ones I had sank after 3 casts and then I had to squeeze out the water and then in another 3 casts same thing so don't get these get the booyah ones they are so much better and they don't sink.
From: Luc: sharon pa
Comments: I bought two, Midnight and Moss yellow.Haven't tried them on the water but my first impression of them were bad. The frogs were smaller than what i expected and it seem like right out of the box the eye of the hook is crooked and at a angle from the mouth (maybe they did this to walk the dog better). The mouth of the frog "the popping part" is really small so it seems like it wouldnt put out much water.

Comments: Don't waste your money. Bought several and they all sink.
