- Obama sees opportunity in crisis. In his first address to a joint session of Congress, Obama framed the economic crisis as an opportunity to solve some of the nation's problems, including overhauling the banking and health care systems. Though he acknowledged the heavy costs the country is paying during the current recession, Obama tried to change the tone of his message, reassuring listeners that "we will rebuild, we will recover, and the United States of America will emerge stronger than before." All the rebuilding and recovery carries a price tag, however, and Obama signalled more taxpayer money will be needed to pull the country out of the credit crisis. (Read Obama's remarks)
- Banks bounce on Bernanke comments. Bernanke helped give bank stocks a boost yesterday after making the strongest comments yet against nationalizing U.S. banks. Speaking to the Senate Banking Committee, Bernanke said he doesn't "see any reason to destroy the franchise value or to create the huge legal uncertainties of trying to formally nationalize a bank when that just isn't necessary." Looking forward, Bernanke held out hope for an economic recovery by 2010 but said recovery depends on whether policymakers can break the 'destructive power' of the interconnected crises in banking and the broader economy.
- Merrill's larger-than-expected loss. Merrill Lynch reported a Q4 loss of $15.84B, around $533M more than estimated by Bank of America (NYSE:BAC). Merrill also revealed material weaknesses in its controls over financial reporting as of the end of its fiscal year in December 2008. The larger-than-expected loss is unwelcome news for Bank of America as it tries to integrate Merrill and prepares for a government 'stress test' set to begin this week.
- AIG asset sales unworkable. Sources say Edward Liddy, CEO of AIG (NYSE:AIG), has concluded that selling assets to repay government loans is not a viable plan. AIG has lost more than 85% of its market value in the last five months, the price it can fetch for many of its units has fallen dramatically and fewer companies are in a strong enough position to bid on AIG's assets. In addition to an earlier idea of converting the government's preferred shares into common stock holdings, one alternative under discussion is for AIG to hand over some of its non-U.S. life insurance businesses to the government in return for forgiveness of part of the loans.
- Ballmer reaches out to Yahoo. Microsoft (NASDAQ:MSFT) CEO Steve Ballmer defended the company's investments in research and development, despite a gloomy financial outlook. Expected to total $9B during the current fiscal year, Microsoft's R&D spending is a sore point among some investors who would like to see a quicker payoff, especially from money-losing units like Microsoft's internet search business. Ballmer also reiterated that he's interested in speaking to new Yahoo (NASDAQ:YHOO) CEO Carol Bartz about how the two can become stronger competition for Google (NASDAQ:GOOG) by reaching an internet search deal. Shares fell 2.7% after hours when Ballmer failed to announce any acceleration in cost cutting.
- SF Chronicle joins the endangered list. In a further sign of the deterioration of the news industry, Hearst Corp. has said it will close or sell the San Francisco Chronicle unless it can rapidly cut costs. Hearst will dramatically reduce the Chronicle's work force of 1,500 but if its cost-saving target isn't reached 'within weeks,' it will try to sell the paper. Since few investors are willing to make such purchases in the current economic crisis, Hearst said it will close the paper if it can't find a buyer. The Chronicle is the 12th largest paper in the U.S. and the largest daily in Northern California.
- Biogen sets sights on new MS drug. Biogen Idec (NASDAQ:BIIB) is reportedly in talks to buy Acorda Therapeutics (NASDAQ:ACOR) in order to gain access to an experimental pill for people with multiple sclerosis. Acorda announced that the drug, Fampridine, helped MS patients walk and Biogen, the world's largest maker of MS medicines, is in talks to buy the marketing rights to Fampridine as well. MS is currently managed by injecting medicines, so Biogen faces competition from firms like Merck (NYSE:MRK) and Novartis (NYSE:NVS) to produce the first MS pill.
- U.K. economy shrinks... The U.K. economy contracted the most since 1980 in Q4 as corporate and consumer spending plunged. GDP fell 1.5% from Q3, with consumer spending -0.7% and fixed investment -2.3%.
- ...while falling pound causes trouble. EU officials are concerned the pound's slide to a record low against the euro could destabilize the British economy. According to a document prepared last month by officials of the European Commission and EU finance ministries, the pound's 'very rapid' drop 'raises questions about the financial stability of the British economy,' and is a 'source of concern for the euro area.' The report also contradicts a claim by U.K. Prime Minister Gordon Brown that a weaker currency helps the economy more than it hurts it.
- Retail sales rise. Retail chain store sales rose 0.6% from a week ago, ICSC said, and declined 0.8% Y/Y. "Sales improved again this past week and extended its non-negative trend to four weeks - a welcome sign for retailers." According to Redbook, national chain store sales rose 0.9% in the first three weeks of February, better than the expected 0.5% bump. Sales -1.5% Y/Y.
- Home prices at new lows. Home prices closed out 2008 at record lows, S&P/Case-Shiller reported, with its 20-city composite index dropping 18.5% vs. a year ago in December. "There are very few, if any, pockets of turnaround that one can see in the data," index chairman David Blitzer said.
- Mtg. apps decrease. Mortgage applications fell 15.1% from a week ago, MBA reports, while 30-year fixed mortgage rates increased to 5.07% from 4.99%.
- Consumer confidence falls. Conference Board's Consumer Confidence Index fell to a new all-time low of 25.0 from January's 37.4. Expectations dropped to 27.5 from 42.5. "Not only do consumers feel overall economic conditions have grown more dire, but... they anticipate no improvement in conditions over the next six months."

More animals are being saved now at the Tallahassee-Leon County Animal Service Center than ever before, yet nearly half admitted are still killed.
The region's only full-service shelter is in a constant battle for space. Last year, 8,922 animals were admitted and 53 percent were adopted, returned to owners or transferred to another rescue shelter to find a home. That's up from a 52-percent live-release rate in 2011.
Staffers are encouraged to see an uptick. More work is needed to cap the volume of cats and dogs coming in, including a community-wide spay and neuter campaign. A high-volume, ...

I love Dock's Café! It's centrally located near the river 'De Schelde' in the heart of Antwerp. The interior is just as fine as the food they serve. The interior was designed by a Portuguese architect and is worth a visit on its own.
Dock's Café is famous for it's oyster bar. They have a wide selection of oysters, a delicacy which I'm very fond of. When we get a restaurant voucher from aunts or uncles, I like to pay a little bit extra and order 3 or 4 courses with selected wines. It's really worthwhile but you can just as easily go for a fixed price lunch menu.
They have a set amount of dishes on the menu, which is a guarantee for fresh food. I like to start out with oysters or some other seafood. Then maybe a starter like marinated salmon. As a main course there are a couple of meat or fish dishes to choose from. Not so expensive and quite tasty are the dishes with Bresse chicken.
For dessert, I'll have a 'Dame blanche' ice cream. Quite simple but Dock's serves theirs with homemade ice cream, chantilly cream and top quality chocolate for the sauce. Heaven!

To the OP. Slow down. Read your wiring diagrams. They tell you everything you need to know.
It would not stop defrosting if the timer motor stopped while in defrost yes but most systems have a heater hi limit to stop a melt down form happening. Also if you fan delay/defrost termination failed in the termination mode, it would trigger the defrost solenoid taking it out of defrost mode as soon as it went in.
im going to guess the unit your working on is a very old semi hermetic compressor with weak valves. Let us know what you find Roy
as it turned out we changed the defrost terminators and the contactors. i think the contactors were sticking keeping the compressor running when it should have shut off
Well on some larger systems the heater won't energize till compressor shuts off. Heater relay off aux contacts on compressor contactor. Your post #13 is a good starting point to check.
Guages and electric meter will tell your problem.
So,,,,you changed the DFT, the contacter, and the time clock,,,,,,Which part was faulty, or were all three bad??? I'd have a hard time billing a customer for parts that weren't needed, or maybe that's just me,,,,,,,,
Naw, it's not just you. :putergreet:

Because at the time, the Nets were in a miserable tailspin, and the Thunder, even without Russell Westbrook, a heavy favorite. Keep Reading…

Clearly her game has some areas that need to be fixed but it doesn't sound like she spent much time doing that. Of course it is important for her to be fit but shouldn't she also be working on her serve, return, forehand, volleys, drop shots, slices et cetera? After both 2010 and 2011 I was disappointed with the lack of growth and improvement in her game and it looks like this could be more of the same.
Yah, those are pretty dissapointing comments from Caro.
Caro's fitness isn't gonna win her matches against the top 20 on the occasion that she plays them as most of them are in good physical shape.
If everyone knows every shot, then can why can't Caro hit a decent/solid forehand on a regular basis, for example?
Is she really blind or in denial of her technical weaknesses? Surely she's noticed her forehand not working the majority of the time or her serve giving her few free points. I don't understand this reluctance to spend time working on technique. She puts in time on her fitness so it doesn't seem like it's an issue of being unwilling to work hard.

One of the advantages of being a locally owned, not-for-profit utility is the ability to work directly with customers in the community and for Sturgeon Bay Utilities, that means working with customers to make payment arrangements.

At Disc Doctor Records we are celebrating our 10th birthday (2003-2013). During this time we realized how stupid is to describe house music with text, so we stopped trying to do it. In other words: Disc Doctor Records does not need to convince you that this track is good with stupid hyped text. You don't need to read it either cause, thanks God, you have born with a pair of ears. So no hype, no bullshit, just listen and let the music talk.Does anybody read this shit anyway? LOL

Customize spaces between subplots in a figure
| Watch this File
Matlab's standard "subplot" function leaves large blank spaces around the plot boxes and gives the user no control over them. Spaceplots is an elementary function to get control over these spaces. I wanted to save space by making tight subplots, so I wrote this function. Thought it will be useful to others too.
>> Create your figure first, and then use spaceplots. It is a very non-intrusive function.
>> Works well with all subplot arrangements (including a mixture of large and small plots)
>> Preserves the axes line-up in the grid by manipulating insets properly
>> Does not work with multiple plots created in a figure by any function other than the Matlab default "subplot" function.
I hope the function is simple enough for anyone to rectify errors or make changes that suit them.
This file inspired Subtightplot.
Unfortunately spaceplots is no longer useful due to it's incompatibility with R2015a. Would love to see an update for it as it was fantastic for earlier versions of MatLab
Ditto the issues of Matt Rippa and Emma before. Would be nice to have this updated for R2014b (or I guess even 2015a, now...)
I had the same problem as Matt Rippa.
Hello. It looks like subplot packaged with spaceplots_v3 is not compatible with R2014b. Works really great with R2014a!
No constructor 'handle.listener' with matching signature found.
Error in subplot>createListeners (line 495) list = [...
Error in subplot>addAxesToGrid (line 549) createListeners(p,handle(list));
Error in subplot (line 467) addAxesToGrid(ax,nrows,ncols,row,col,position);
Error in Main (line 45) subplot(NPlots,2,ax);
Is there a way to connect different subplots, as in subplot(4,2,[1,3,5])?
Hello! I would like to report a bug. In some case of figure deleting one get the error in function "removeAxesFromGrid(p,ax)" at command "rmappdata(p,'SubplotListeners')" -- this field does not exist. So, I propose to add a verification via "isappdata".
With v3.0, the earlier errors with legend and colorbars will now disappear!
For those who get the error "Attempted to access GridLeft...index must be a positive integer or logical", you need to call spaceplots BEFORE changing axis ticks, or adding colorbar, etc... For example for the colorbar, try
a1=subplot(2,1,1);scatter(rand(10,1),rand(10,1),5,rand(10,1)) a2=subplot(2,1,2); scatter(rand(10,1),rand(10,1),5,rand(10,1)) spaceplots axes(a1); colorbar axes(a2); colorbar
When I use image or imagesc with a colour bar I get the following error:
Attempted to access GridLeft(0,4); index must be a positive integer or logical.
Error in spaceplots (line 228) axLeft = GridLeft(r0,c0) + InsetLeft(r0,c0);
Try this code as an example:
figure; for i = 1:8 subplot(2, 4, i); imagesc(rand(100, 10)); colorbar; end; spaceplots([.01 .01 .01 .01], [.02 .02]);
With the axis ticks disables (set(gca,'xtick',[],'ytick',[])) I receive an error in spaceplots 228: "Attempted to access GridLeft(0,12); index must be a positive integer or logical.". Does anyone know how to fix it? I want to have all the plots directly adjacent without any visible axis or ticks in between.
Thanks a lot man :-) I really need this function, the sapce between subplots was only wasted space!!!
Excellent! This is a very useful function. Note that, to save the figure exactly as it appears on the screen, you need this extra line:
Thanks a lot Aditya for taking the vodoo out of subplots! ;)
Excellent !
Works very good. Thanks!
Hi Ralph,
Thanks for your feedback. I've updated the file with your suggestion and a couple of minor fixes.
I'm curious though, I've never had the problem you mentioned during my use. Comparing floats is bound to crash when you are comparing values of two variables that have been computed. But in this case essentially it is the exact same value assigned to the variables being compared, in which case there should be no problem.
Great function. I like the idea of simplicity and non-obtrusiveness. On first use, it failed on my system (therefor four stars instead of five). This was because of this condition evaluating to false where it should have been true:
if axPos(4) == defAx(4)
Comparing floats can be a dangerous thing. For improved robustness you might want to consider rewriting this into
if abs(axPos(4)-defAx(4)) < eps
The same holds for the similar check a couple of lines below.
1. Fixed the issues occurring in successive uses of the function on the same figure.
1. Fixed issues arising from successive uses of the function on the same figure.
v3.0: Uses undocumented Matlab property 'LooseInset' which makes the function much simpler and cleaner.
Included subplot.m for v3

Francisco was great and easy to work with! No complaints, and thank you for your help with resolving the created problems with my pick up location.
just great!
It was not easy to find. The street number was hard to find from my car because of the awning out front and the trucks are way in back and not visible from the streets.
Nice friendly people made it easy to do business with them.

Is it bad to for ur eyes if u open them under water?
i just got back from the pool and i did not use googles and both my eyes are really blood shot
Is it bad to open your eyes underwater in a lake/ocean/pool?
yes, but not too bad, try to use goggles because the chlorine is a poison and can eventually damage and dry out your eyes... this is coming from a swimmer, water polo player and lifeguard, i live half of my life at the pool and my eyes have long since dried outIs it ok not to be able to swim?
Chlorine and salt water will dry your eyes out. Just get some eye drops and put in to replensih the moisture. No permanent harmyeah it is. try using visine. chlorine is not good for your eyes at all.
Anyone like to learn to scuba dive? heres a video-> http://livedigital.com/content/756790/?
Well the chlorine in the pool has obviously irritated your eyes.it might hurt a little bit but eyedrops help. but it doesnt harm your eyes because synchronized swimmers have to swim there routines without goggles and with there eyes open.
it happens because of chlorine...but u should really open them underwater..it's necessary...try eye drops helps with d itching!!
Is there anyone else here who is an adult but cant swim ?
NoWhen to use shock in your pool. I a new at this pool stuff. Thanks for any help..?
yes getting pee-water mix into your eyes is no good.What is the difference between dry suit and a wet suit?
Not really. Chlorine does make your eyes very red and stings at first (and at least I get little rainbows around every darn source of light) but there isn't a big problem with permanent damage. Sometimes it does dry out the eyes, but not unbearably. I find that this new chemical-- I think it's called bromide, or something-- doesn't sting half as much initially, but it feels like there's sand in my eyes for days. Yes, your eyes will be bloodshot. Your eyes will also be bloodshot after you cry. And if you get an eyelash in your eye. And if you rub them incessantly. So just because your eyes are red doesn't mean you're experiencing the onset of permanent damage. If it makes you feel beter, just use an eyewash.As for the urine in the pool, that's what the humongous filters and jets and chemicals are for. For crying out loud, they don't let the water stagnate.
What is the national record for the 100 meter breaststroke for girls?
well yeah if the water is clean but if the water is dirty or salted it will hurtMore Questions & Answers...

text: Our Garmin Zumo 220 GPS shipped with MapSource as the routing software to accompany it. Garmin has since abandoned MapSource and began using its own software, BaseCamp, which is available for free as a download. The idea with BaseCamp (and was with MapSource) was that you could create a trip or a route on your computer, transfer it to your GPS and then load the route on your GPS and follow it. It is nice to do. By default BaseCamp checks for updates every time you load it. In BaseCamp you set options for profiles such as motorcycling, driving, hiking, etc.. With the options for each setting you can set the profile to not route you on things such as toll roads, dirt roads, avoid u-turns, highways and many more things. I noticed a feature in the motorcycle profile that I don't know if it's new or I've been missing it all this time. It's a "curvy roads" routing feature. That's right, curvy roads for a motorcycle! Who would've thought that motorcycles would like curvy roads? Well it's an option I'm going to start playing with and see what results I get.

Wiggins started eight games last season as a freshman, leading the team with two interceptions and making 19 tackles.
He was booked into the Clarke County Jail at 10:30 p.m. Sunday and released on bonds totaling $2,000 at 12:09 a.m. Monday.
Wiggins was pulled over after being clocked driving on College Station Road near the Barnett Shoals intersection going 52 miles per hour in a 35 miles per hour zone, according to police.
"As (the officer) ran his driver's license doing a check, it returned for a failure to appear so he arrested him for that," said Hilda Sorrow, Athens-Clarke County police spokeswoman.
Wiggins' license was suspended for not appearing in court but she could not provide details on the previous charge or which court it was.
Wiggins, who played at Sandy Creek High School, is unlikely to face any suspension for the arrest. Defensive lineman John Atkins was arrested last June for driving only with a learner's permit and coach Mark Richt handled the discipline internally.

A while back I wrote an article entitled Ten Great Hikes in Ohio. As a follow-up I'd like to recommend another ten great hikes. Some may be familiar, some more obscure, but if you like spending time in the outdoors amidst interesting scenery, you'll enjoy these excursions.
Two Loop Hikes at Burr Oak State Park
Burr Oak State Park straddles Athens and Morgan County. It has camp sites, cottages to rent, and a recently renovated lodge. It has 30 miles of hiking trails and even more hiking in the surrounding Wayne National Forest.

Gofraid of Lochlann
Gofraid | |
The viking raven war standard shown on a penny minted in the reign of Amlaíb Cuarán.
King of Lochlann (more...) | |
Reign | pre-849 – 873? |
Predecessor | Unknown |
Successor | Ímar |
Spouse | Unknown |
Issue | Amlaib Conung Ímar Óisle |
House | Pre-Uí Ímair |
Father | Ragnall? |
Gofraid, King of Lochlann was a key figure in the emergence of Norse influence in Scotland and the likely progenitor of the early Kings of the Isles and of the Uí Ímair that dominated the Irish Sea and environs in the early Medieval period. Very little is known of him, including his origins and the nature of his kingdom, although his descendants are well attested in the Irish annals. Speculative connections between these historical figures and characters from the Norse sagas have also been made.
The Fragmentary Annals of Ireland record of Amlaib Conung[Note 1] that in 871 he:
went from Erin to Lochlann to wage war on the Lochlanns, and to aid his father Goffridh, for the Lochlanns had made war against him, his father having come for him.[2][3]
Frustratingly, the text continues:
Since it would be lengthy to tell the cause of their war, and since it has so little relevance to us, although we have knowledge of it, we forego writing it, for our task is to write about whatever concerns Ireland, and not even all of that; for the Irish suffer evils not only from the Norwegians, but they also suffer many evils from themselves.[4]
These annals also note that in 849:
the sixth year of the reign of Máel Sechlainn, Amlaib Conung, son of the king of Lochlann, came to Ireland, and he brought with him a proclamation of many tributes and taxes from his father, and he departed suddenly. Then his younger brother Imar came after him to levy the same tribute.[5]
This source is then clear that Amlaib is the son of Gofraid, who is the king of Lochlann, although the location of "Lochlann" is the subject of some dispute.[6] This word is often translated as "Norway" although Ó Corráin (1998) argues that Lochlann "is Viking Scotland and probably includes Man" at this time and suggests an early date for an organised Kingdom of the Isles.[7]
The Fragmentary Annals record little else about Gofraid's life but report of 873:
Ég righ Lochlainne .i. Gothfraid do tedmaimm grána opond. Sic quod placuit Deo. (The death of the king of Lochlann i.e. Gothfraid of a sudden and horrible fit. So it pleased God.)[8][Note 2]
However, according to Downham (2007) "none of these details can be relied upon"[14] as "there is no contemporary evidence to support the statement that [Amlaib's] father was called Gofraid"[15] the Fragmentary Annals having been compiled at an uncertain date, possibly as early as the 11th century. Neither is the dating of the Annals definitive. Nonetheless, Ó Corráin (1998) argues of 873 that "this is no chronological impossibility: his sons first appeared in Ireland 25 years before, very likely in their twenties or younger, and we may infer from this that he may have been in his sixties when he died."[16] He also states that "it is likely that the father of Amlaíb (Óláfr) and Ímar (Ívarr) is Gothfraidh (Guðrøðr) and that he is a historical person and dynastic ancestor."[17]
The Fragmentary Annals note of a date c. 871-872 that "In this year, i.e. the tenth year of the reign of Áed Findliath, Imar son of Gothfraid son of Ragnall son of Gothfraid Conung son of Gofraid and the son of the man who left Ireland, i.e. Amlaib, plundered from west to east, and from south to north."[18] This suggests an ancestry for Gofraid but according to Ó Corráin this reference to "his genealogical ascent is a construct without historical value"[17] and attempts to link the Kings of Lochlann with historical figures in Norway have not proven to be satisfactory.[19][20]
Alfred Smyth identifies Amlaib as Olaf Geirstad-Alf of Vestfold, which would make Gofraid identical to Gudrød the Hunter, grandfather of Harald Fairhair.[21] However Ó Corráin maintains that there is "no good historical or linguistic evidence to link Lothlend/Laithlind with Norway, and none to link the dynasty of Dublin to the shadowy history of the Ynglings of Vestfold."[22]
In addition to Amlaib Conung, Gofraid had at least two other children, Amlaib's brothers Ímar, the eponymous founder of the Uí Ímair, and Óisle. The Annals of Ulster also note that there was a king of "Laithlinne" whose heir, Thórir, brought an army to Ireland in 848 and who died there in battle.[24] Although there is no specific suggestion that this king was Gofraid this is only the year before the Fragmentary Annals first record of Amlaib as the king's son.
According to the Fragmentary Annals c. 867:
There was an encounter between Óisle, son of the king of Norway, and Amlaib, his brother. The king had three sons: Amlaib, Imar, and Óisle. Óisle was the least of them in age, but he was the greatest in valor, for he outshone the Irish in casting javelins and in strength with spears. He outshone the Norwegians in strength with swords and in shooting arrows. His brothers loathed him greatly, and Amlaib the most; the causes of the hatred are not told because of their length. The two brothers, Amlaib and Imar, went to consult about the matter of the young lad Óisle; although they had hidden reasons for killing him, they did not bring these up, but instead they brought up other causes for which they ought to kill him; and afterwards they decided to kill him.[25]
When Óisle visited Amlaib the former said:
'Brother, if your wife, i.e. the daughter of Cináed, does not love you, why not give her to me, and whatever you have lost by her, I shall give to you.' When Amlaib heard that, he was seized with great jealousy, and he drew his sword, and struck it into the head of Óisle, his brother, so that he killed him. After that all rose up to fight each other (i.e. the followers of the king, Amlaib, and the followers of the brother who had been killed there); then there were trumpets and battle-cries on both sides.[25]
In 870 Dumbarton was besieged by Amlaib Conung and Ímar, "the two kings of the Northmen", who "returned to Dublin from Britain" the following year with numerous captives.[26] Gofraid may have been succeeded briefly by Ímar who also died in 873. His death is recorded in the Annals of Ulster: Imhar rex Nordmannorum totius Hibernię & Brittanie uitam finiuit (Ímar king of the Norwegian Vikings of the whole of Ireland and Britain ended his life.)[16] Amlaíb died either the following year campaigning in Scotland,[15][27] or perhaps prior to 872.[28] The matter of Gofraid's descendants and antecedents is subject to some ambiguity based on differing interpretations of these siblings and their connections to legendary figures from the Norse sagas.
The descendants of Ímar include his grandson Ragnall ua Ímair, who was a ruler of Northumbria and Mann,[29] (and who may have been the historical prototype of Rognvald Eysteinsson of the Orkneyinga Saga),[30] Sitric Cáech (d. 927) who was a King of Dublin and of York, his successor Amlaíb Cuarán and probably the later Crovan dynasty of Mann[31] and thus of Clann Somhairle, the rulers of Argyll[32] and their descendants the Clan Donald Lords of the Isles.[33]
Ímar has also been identified as the saga character Ivar the Boneless.[34][35] The latter is referred to in late 11th century Icelandic saga material as a son of the powerful Ragnar Lodbrok.[Note 3] This Ivar had 11 brothers including Halfdan Ragnarsson and Ubba (but not including an Amlaib or Óisle) and is also believed to have died childless.[37] Nor is there any indication in the Irish annals that Ragnar Lodbrok had any Irish connections.[38]
Amlaib had two sons, Oistin (d. 875) and Carlus (d. 868).[15] Unlike Ímar, no later descendants are recorded but like his brother, he has also been identified as a saga character — Olaf the White.[1][39]
This Olaf married Aud the Deep-Minded, daughter of Ketil Flatnose and they had a son, Thorstein the Red,[40] whose name is similar to the Irish "Oistin". However, Aud does not appear in the Irish sources and there are various problems with the connection. For example, the Landnámabók has Olaf killed in battle in Ireland, but no Irish source refers to the battle and the Chronicle of the Kings of Alba has Amlaib dying in Pictavia at the hands of Causantín mac Cináeda.[41] The connection has "frequently been proposed and frequently been rejected".[42]
- Notes
- ^ The name "Conung" is from the Old Norse konungr and simply means "king". [1]
- ^ O' Corrain (1998) concludes on p. 37: "This much-emended entry appears to be the death notice of Gøðrøðr, king of the Vikings in Scotland."[9] This is supported by the 1977 CELT translator who offers "The Norwegian king, i.e. Gothfraid, died of a sudden hideous disease." [10] However the Gaelic is translated as simply "The King of the Lochlanns died of an ugly, sudden disease." by O'Donovan[11] and James Henthorn Todd believed this entry referred to the death of Ímar in his translation of Cogad Gaedel re Gallaib.[12] The entry "has caused a great deal of trouble for historians".[13]
- ^ "The most cruel of them all was Ingvar, the son of Lodbrok, who everywhere tortured Christians to death. This was written in the Gesta of the Franks."[36]

How do you transfer phone numbers from old sim to new micro-sim??
Ok i got my new micro-sim from O2 and want to setup my new sim card. I want to know how do i take the contacts stored on my sim and put them onto my new sim card so that i can still use my new micro-sim with an adapter in other phones and still have my contacts with me!?
I know itunes will prob sync contacts to my new iPhone 4 but want to have them on my sim. Just afraid that when i activate micro-sim and the other one is dead then i will lose all my sim saved numbers. Basically i want all my numbers to be on my new sim card so that when i go out i can take my card out of my iPhone and into my spaer w800i phone and still have all my contacts phone numbers rather than a blank sim..please help as i'm sure others may want to know the same. |

Save the contacts onto the phone itself and then from your phone onto the SIM. I know you can do that with a 3GS, so I don't see why you can't with the MicroSIM. Although it may be possible you can't.

I'm now putting my sim card into my sony Errickson and going to copy numbers to phone and then when my new sim card is activated, put it in my sony erikson and copy them over to new sim card. Though some of the newer numbers will be lost that have been added with iPhone, it may preserve some for my nihts out. I smell Apple did this so that we buy Apple mobile me. |

How did you get your micro sim? Were you a "lucky" one chosen by O2 and it just arrived in the post? Thanks - D |

Hi there sorry for late reply. I got my sim as i sent my mum down to the O2 shop with a printout of my recipt saying that i had bought a sim free iPhone. They took my full name and address and gave my mum a envelope with the full sized sim card with the micro sim in the centre...No sim adapter though to make bigger again so will have to get one of these seperate.

Some bad info here.
You can NOT save contacts to the iPhone sim, period. You can put a non-iPhone sim into the previous iPhones and import contacts, but for the 4, you'll need to sync your non-iPhone to either Outlook or Address Book somehow to get your contacts to the iPhone (or via online). |

Put old iPhone sim card into Sony Erikson (SE) phone and merged everything in the SE memory contacts also into windows contacts. Then using SE software have synced all contacts from windows to my SE phone. Then saved all contacts on SE phone to Sim card So now i have all contacts from both iPhone and SE phone on my old sim card. Double chacked this by putting sim back into iphone, going into contacts/mail settings and pressing on import from sim, then resynced everything to windows to make sure everything is on this sim card. Now what i hope to do is once O2 have cut service to my old sim and activate my new micro-sim(waiting for this to happen now, says could take up to 24hours) is put this in iPhone to make sure card works. Then i will put it into SE phone and import all contacts onto the new sim. Hopefully then i will have ALL my numbers back onto my new iPhone sim. Unless of course they have totally changed the way sims work in last 2 years then yeah maybe won't work. Will post my findings tommorrow and see if i can explain my method a bit better if it does work and this is hard to follow, just getting tired now. |

The Blonde's Naked Men!
A blonde's car breaks down on the Interstate one day.
So she eases it over onto the shoulder of the road. She carefully steps out of the car and opens the trunk. Out jump two men in trench coats who walk to the rear of the vehicle where they stand facing oncoming traffic and begin opening their coats and exposing their nude bodies to approaching drivers...
Not surprisingly, one of the worst pileups in history of this highway occurs.
It's not very long before a police car shows up.
The cop, clearly enraged, runs toward the blonde
of the disabled vehicle yelling,
"What the hell is going on here?"
"My car broke down," says the lady, calmly.
"Well, what are these perverts doing here by the road?!" asks the cop...
And she said....
(This is good...)
(Remember, she's a blonde...)
"Those are my emergency flashers!" she replied.

Doers anyone have any info on the new Tiffin Allegro Breeze which was awarded Best of Show at US National RV Trade Show... I understand that it is 28ft with an weight of 21,500lb and a 215hp V8... Not really much else.. the Tiffin site has some pretty duff fotos but??? At 28ft I think the house amd children will be sold :biggrin:
Additional Fotos Fotos of Prototype being painted at http://www.rvcruzer.com/breeze.php Fotos of both sides, front & back on stand at http://www.rvbuddiesonline.com/tag/allegro-breeze/ or http://www.flickr.com/photos/tiffinmotorhome/show/
Mikamada, We actually saw the Tiffin at the trade show back in Dec. It is very nice, no MRSP has been annouced but you can bet it will ALOT more than the Tiffin RED. Tom, Signature
I know this is an old post but I have a brochure for the breeze In my hot little hand, the reason is I have just returned from Florida (Lazy Days ), they say they had the first 10 off the line and sold them like hot cakes. 28ft pusher air suspension and brakes the new maxforce 7 V8. looks good anybody wants the brochure I will send it on Loddy :thumbup:
Hi Loddy Interested in brochure and already wondering what it costs (and what it will cost in a couple of years!) and sure there will be others too. Wondered if it could be scanned in for emailing if several members wanted? I have the facility at work and could do this if wanted. Would just need the brochure and a list of email addresses? Can return the brochure if required or post on if anyone wants the original? Thoughts please.........
I don't need it as I have set my heart on a Four Winds Serrano 31v. PM me your address and I will send it on, you can do what you want with it Loddy :001_smile:
Breeze Hi Don`t fancy it, it has a front bus door which I personally do not like. Now a MID entrance version??? Pete
Loddy Thanks really appreciated, will PM you:thumbup: If any one wants an emailed PDF version, then please PM me with your email. Or let me know if you want the original after I have taken a look.
Change of Mind Just seen a Serrano on a US E-Bay, now that I do fancy especially the 31Z!! try E-Bay 2011 currently asking @$108K dollars.(approx £69K) at today's exchange rate. pete
No bids on them go for it, I was driving one last week out of Lazy Days, very good torque figures and a good turning circle Loddy
Hi Loddy Thanks for posting the brochure to me. The address I gave you is my office address as full timing and only went into work today after a long weekend off, hence the delay in getting back to you. If anyone would like me to post it on to them, then please pm me your address and I would be pleased to forward. Thanks again Loddy, really appreciated.
Hi All Just to let you know that the original brochure has now been posted on to member Uncle Pup.:thumbup:
Must admit these do look nice, any one have gross weights and towing weights, also any price yet, just curious. All the best Rick.
Close inspection of the Allegro Breeze specification on Tiffin's website shows single glazed glass as standard with double glazing not an option. Having been in single glazed coaches and seen the condensation in the winter time a price of $150K (Lazydays) seems a lot to pay for a coach without double glazing.
Brochure just arrived in the post :thumbup: It's a real beauty :biggrin: First time I've even thought about replacing our RV! Just need to start saving and start persuading my better half. The brochure will help alot. Thanks Lee (RV USA) for posting it on and thanks Loddy for picking it up from Lazydays. It's like christmas has come early :001_rolleyes: It reminds me how lucky I am to be a member of this forum and how fortunate I am to have discovered this hobby/lifestyle/way of living. Much appreciated, Andy
Uncle Pup I'm glad you enjoyed it, and it's so refreshing to get feedback. Whilst we were at Lazydays the salesman said they had just sold one, he then proceeded to drive around the site looking for it in a golf buggy, it took us ages but we couldn't find it , the conclusion was the customer didn't stay over and left the site early, so we didn't get to see one in the flesh. Loddy
Took the brochure to bed with me yesterday :biggrin: It really is a ground breaking RV. I never thought they would do a diesel pusher of this size. The nearest I'd seen to this was the 34 foot Newmar Ventana 3434. Even Tanya was impressed by the brochure, although she did point out that the cream leather (leatherette) would soon get dirty with me around!!! :001_rolleyes: I read somewhere that it's not available in double glazing. Our Gulfstream doesn't have double glazing and although we don't seem to have a condensation problem (probably because as we have the maxxair fitted we can keep our vents open all year round), I know many people who believe that without double glazing condensation is always a problem. I must admit it does get a tad cold in the winter, but that just means we have to go to bed early :wink: . Tanya loves our electric blanket !!! :thumbup:
