Comment: Great vest, much cooler then leather. good quality liner. ordered on friday received on monday. i would buy it again.
Comment: Great service two day arrival! Vest is high quality. The size chart needs to be adjusted though. Add one size to your order
Youngstown, Ohio
Comment: Looked at several. The size chart was helpful in getting the rigth size. CMA colors require the American flag be worn on the left breast and this was the only vest I found that did not have a pocket where the flag goes.

Comment: I ordered the black vest and got it the very next day. Put it on and sat down and ordered the blue one. This is a GREAT VEST. Would like to see it in tan or light brown. Then I would have to order them.

Alamo, TN
Comment: BETTER THAN EXPECTED . WOULD RECCOMMEND THIS TO ANYONE LOOKING FOR SOMETHING LIGHTER THAN LEATHER.
Comment: The one pictured is either been washed many times(nicely broke in) or it is manufactured that way. The one you will receive is brand new denim. WHAT A VALUE, just as described, lots of pockets a nice wicking material (mesh liner). I really dig mine. Don't forget to order a size larger as they recommend. I would highly recommend this item to anyone lookin' for the vest look and lots of pockets
New Mexico
Comment: I ordered the blue vest. The picture showed a light blue denim i received a darker blue. Still a great vest, fits great, and looks good just wanted a light blue denim.
Comment: Nice vest, well pleased with construction and
fit. Would recommend
Fort Wayne
Comment: I have order two vests from this company. Pleased with both of them. I belong to 5 different clubs so wear a vest for each one. I love the Demin cause I can glue the patches on and they stay. I have two leathers vest and the cost for each patch to have sewed on was 5 dollars. I have 22 patches on my Vest. So saved lots of money. Will order again from this site.
Comment: Nice vest. Comfortable wear and convenient pockets. Only complaint is the sizing chart. My chest is 46 inches and it says to go one size bigger. 3X was unavailable so I ordered a 2X and its still too big. I suggest going one size down. The sides are adjustable so if my advice doesn't work you can simply let it out at the sides.

Dave Clarke
Tavares, Florida
Comment: Fits great, well made. I had ordered two others, and returned them due to fit and workmanship. This if perfect in all ways, plus received it fast. Will be a repeat customer should I need anything else in this linel. Best of luck, great job!
Tom Shelar
Ellendale, Delaware
Comment: The vest looks great and fits great. The only reason I rated it a 3.5 is the color in the picture is way off. I really wanted the lighter blue but it comes in a dark blue vest. I'm trying to fade it but not working so well.
Comment: just what I was looking for and it fit the first try.
Comment: Was much darker than pictured, order the size they tell you or one size bigger than they say. made very well. I would recommend it , great value.
Comment: This is a great vest. The fit is good and the sizing chart is true. Measure chest and use that size.
Comment: Bought the MV103 Denim and Leather vest and must say, I am truly impressed with the quality of both. For the price they can't be beat!!!!!! Excellent products!!!!!

Montegut. LA.
Comment: I like this vest perfect fit , its darker than pic but I like better, love the gun pocket hides it good. Another good purchase from you guys.
R James
Nolanville TX
Comment: This vest is heavy-weight denim, comes in dark blue denim ( not faded like the picture), and seems to run just a little large by size. I ordered 2XL for a 46" chest but probably could have taken an XL just as easily. Otherwise it is a quality garment and certainly worth thesale price!
Comment: Can't believe it arrived so fast. Nice quality, looks good. Wish they would make one out of a soft mesh material to wear on those hot summer days.
Karin Duncan
Peoria, IL
Comment: The service & product is great. However, the color is much, much darker than the photo in the ad.
North Carolina
Comment: Real nice vest. Heavier than I expected which is a good thing. Love the gun pocket. Shipped quickly. Feels great while riding.
Comment: Out of the zens of vests I have owned, this is hands down the bet. Quality, price, etc.
Round Rock, TX
Comment: Quality looks good for the price, look forward to a lot of years wear. Service of order was great and delivery was equaly as fast.
Tinley Park, Il.
Comment: I am impressed with the vest, the weight of the material and the way it fits. I also like the built in holsters. Warning, the denim is pretty thick... I've sewed a couple of patches on by hand, and you have a real job on your hands. Using a machine for the back was no problem. But because of the pockets and holsters, the front bottom 3/4 of the vest will have to be done by hand. Heavy needles and something to push the needle through besides the palm of your hand. It's a great vest, I wish they had a lades version like it for my wife to use.
Clarksville, Tennessee
Comment: I love this vest, I would have have it 5 stars if it was the same color as the picture. But after spraying it down with clorox clean up I got the look that i wanted. Excellent quality
Tooele Utah
Comment: Great vest do'nt carry a gun but, smoke a pipe so the holster work good for my pipe & tobacco. All pockets are good. buy it you like it.
Burbank CA
Comment: Great vest for the money. The only thing I see different from the advertisement is the color - the vest is a brand new denim (dark blue) that I'm sure will fade with repeated washings. Great pockets and adjustable straps on the sides.
Ron Raizis
Jacksonville, Florida
Comment: This is a quality vest. The inside pockets are a real plus. It is a heavyweight denim. I am more than happy with this choice. I recommend it to anyone looking for a good alternative to another leather vest.
Burning Stogie
Comment: Nice vest. Good fit. Transaction was fine.
Comment: Nice quality, excellent fit!
Comment: Great Value.Fits perfectly. Looks fantastic with sew-on patches. Will Buy again
Hans Hartmann
Fredon, NJ
Comment: I like the quality of the vest. Light weight but sturdy. I would not call the gun pocket a HOLSTER, though. It might be okay revolvers, but not autos. I'm going to see about getting a real holster put into it.
Comment: This is a quality vest. Too heavy to wear here in Mississippi this time of year so cannot wait for cooler weather. Thought the shipping cost was a bit high but still worth what I paid for the vest. Very fast delivery.
Bill Nomad
Gulfport, Mississippi
Comment: Better then I expected. I really like this denim vest and love the gun pockets. The size (large ) was a perfect fit for me. The quality of the demin is great. I'll be buying more stuff here later. Very satisfied
Pasadena, TX
Comment: Well made, fits true to chart. Love all the inside pockets. Color is darker than shown, but wasn't an issue with me.
Cuba, MO
Comment: I belong to the ALR and needed a vest, however I did not want leather, due to the hot weather in the summer. This vest was exactly what I wanted, enough pockets and really well made. Thanks Jafrum was my first purchase from you but probably won't be the last.
C. Koenig
Crofton, Maryland
Comment: I'm very happy with the vest and the fit. The price is very reasonable and it cooler than leather.
Pat Boltz
Comment: As stated, the color is darker then in the picture and thanks to someone's review I ordered one size bigger then normal and it fits perfect.
Lakeville, MN
Comment: It is definitely a new blue color vice faded. I'm really impressed with the quality and the cargo pockets on the inside. Not much you can't carry.
Kansas Spyder
Comment: Very nice vest! Ordered this as an alternative for a summer vest. It was a warm summer in Colorado this year. I received my vest in a timely manner and am only disappointed by one thing, the color. The image in the picture is of a lighter blue denim, and I received one that is a dark blue denim. Other than that, very satisfied with the product I received.
Denver, CO
Comment: Excelente artículo. Buen vendedor. Translation: Excellent article. Good seller
Comment: Does the job,can carry a lot of stuff except a fire arm, too small to. But will hold other things. Good vest.
Comment: Would love it if this came in Womens!
Comment: Very nice vest. I was surprised at the quality considering the low price. I would recommend ordering at least one size larger than usual.
Comment: Fits great, rugged, and looks good too! Awesome product for the price.
James Carlino
Comment: Excellent vest,will hold a PT92F,but a compact pistol won't "print" as easily.
Comment: Much better quality than I expected - very heavy weight and multiple layers where the pockets are. "Holster" pockets aren't very secure, lean over and your pistol may fall out.
Comment: I bought it as a gift for my husband. He seems to like it. The pockets are roomy..He can't wait to use it riding next season.. The Color was darker than shown. The overall fit is good.
Barre VT
Comment: I'm quite satisfied with both my new vest and the prompt next day delivery of it. I ordered per the size chart and the fit was fine. The color was darker than the website's pic, but that's no big deal for me. Thanks Jafrum
Florence, SC
Comment: Fitment of the vest is good. The color is misleading in the ad. Way too dark.
Comment: The fit is excellent and I am looking forward to using it as the weather gets warmer. I really like this vest because I have a lot of ride pins which if you put them in leather leave a hole if you have to relocate them. Also, the amount of pockets is FANTASTIC! Lots of place to store things. Once my order was shipped it was about a week to arrive at my door with standard shipping.
Eric P.
Space Coast, Florida
Comment: Good product. Fast shipping. I'm a happy biker.
Comment: As it starts to become summertime here in Florida leather vests are just too hot. This one is much lighter and keeps ya cooler. Plus there is a TON of pocket space. I especially like the gun pocket but be aware it doesn't work for smaller handguns,
Central FL
Comment: Very nice vest great price.
Comment: This vest is one of the best I have. light blue not so it's Dark blue I like the vest and color.
Richmond VA
Comment: Great fit, fast shipping. Vest is 2-ply, well made and the side pockets are even lined. Great Product at a great price.
Comment: 100% pleased. Darker blue like some have mentioned but it will lighten with use. Great quqlity that can't be beat.
Washington state
Comment: Great quality, fast shipping, should order next size up. Will be back when I need gear.
Ed Jaworski
Silver Springs, Fl.
Comment: I had already purchased the black denim vest and loved it, put my patches on that one but wanted the blue denim vest for everyday. I wear a large size t shirt but because of comments on the reviews I ordered a 2x it fit fine. But even with sides loosened became a little tight when carrying concealed and there was a signature outline of my pistol. ordered a 3x on the blue denim and this solved the problem. Very happy with both of my vests.
Comment: as advertised and reviewed
Comment: Was looking for a denim vest for a while and found these . I bought one and like it alot .Probably will be buying another in the near future
harry kern
Comment: Very good Vest for the price. Strongly made and I like the built in holster on the inside pocket. Several of my friends have already ordered vest's for themselves. Also all of us have ordered the Black Vest also.

Comment: nice quality vest, fits well. liked it so well I ordered the black one also. love the cell phone pocket and built in holster. fast delivery
william bean
groves, TX
Comment: THE VEST I ORDERED WAS VERY WELL SIZED, COMFORTABLE, AND FIT MY 44 DDD GREAT!!! ALSO HAS OODLES OF POCKETS FOR ANYTHING AND EVERYTHING
Comment: Like written elsewhere, I mainly bought this for the Texas summer. Gets hard to wear black leather when it gets over 100 degrees. So far the vest has worked perfectly. Also, much easier to sew patches on.
Detroit, TX
Comment: Quality of vest is great, size was just as stated. Looks great. First ride everyone was asking about where I got the vest so I'm sharing the web site
Steve Standefer
Pikeville TN
Comment: Vest is very good quality and fits good. A little tight with the concealed waepon, but I have vest extenders, whicj makes it more comfortable. Will buy from Jafrum again.
Comment: I love all the pockets--very good quality--cooler then leather--really like the denim look!!!
Don C.

Comment: Product was exactly what I was looking for. Great description. Fast shipping and great quality.
Rochester, NY
Comment: Bought this vest for my summer vest and its perfect. Sized correctly and well made. Showed it to the Motorcycle Club and several members were interested.
Comment: This is truly a great buy for the quaity of jacket you are getting. Well made,nice denim material made into a nice style jacket
Comment: I was surprised and please when I received this vest. I thought for the price it would be thin and light. How wrong I was. It is thick and sturdy. Very well made. Plenty of inside pocket room where your valuables can be carried safely. I am female and like to ride without a purse, but we ladies need our "stuff". This vest did not disappoint. Great fit for a lady too!!!
Comment: This vest is top notch and looks great. I sew patches on it and it look great.
White Oak, Texas
Comment: I think this is a great vest.
The shipping was very fast.
The only thing I have to say bad about this
vest is that the size is small, so if you need an X-Large order a XX-Large.
I think you will be very happy .
Mike (Samurai) Stabile

Comment: I am happy with the vest.A little darker than what I wanted but it will work.Thanks to another review I ordered a size bigger and it fit great.Hopefully it will be cooler than my leather one. Does'nt matter I'll still ride.
Truman Lake area, Missouri
Comment: Measure your chest, go by the chart, get a great fit!
The quality exceeds expectation.
Excellent delivery.
Middletown, Indiana
Comment: Better than I expected, very well made. I ordered another as a gift and some of my rideing friends are also ordering same product.
Tony Smith
Brenham Texas
Comment: Heavy duty. I Love the quality!
Denim days at work. Use the vests always.
Will sleep with it if I have to.
Rick Kieselowsky
Moscow PA
Comment: Very well made. I don't care for the "new" blue denim color and I immediately bleach it out to a lighter "used" look. It holds up well. This is the second vest I've purchased: one with patches and one to remain plain.
Charles Ferguson
Beaumont, CA
Comment: I order this vest for myself. It looked great but. After washing it shrunk. Gave it to a buddy have not seen him he did not have it on. Order it large it will shrink
highland springs
Comment: I love this vest but if you're gonna buy it cuz you think its cooler than leather, think again. With all the inside pockets and the lining in back its just as warm. Also, these vests aren't tapered at the sides. They fit well across the chest and at the hip but if you have a waist and don't have a big belly to fill it in on the sides, they don't fit right. They need to be tapered a little at the sides. Tightening the "strings" at the sides doesn't help. I have mine tightened all the way and it sticks out on the sides. Even washed it in warm water to try and shrink it a little didn't help either. Just sayin'...............
St. Louis
Comment: Very nice light weight vest with nice gun pocket with elastic to hold magazines. Extra pockets on the inside are nice.
Paul Shaffer
Charleston WV
Comment: Don't be like me and ignore the commits from others to go up in size when ordering. I had to do just that. if you have a gut, go up two sizes.
The vest itself is very nice and it is what I was hoping for. It has the single panel back which will make it perfect for sewing patches on.

And just cause I love this photo, here's a pic from H2O
I just have 2 question. Regarding the plate lights, is it a regular bulb with blue tint, or LED? Did it throw any bulb out message on the dash when you put them in? And how is the ride? I live in NYC where potholes look more like meteor strikes and like how the car rides and takes the bumps the way it does now.
First thing I did was put 4300k HID's in which light up the road awesome. The plans I have are throwing a Thule rack with fairing on the roof, to lower it an inch, inch and a half, yellow fogs, to throw 18 inch VW Spokane's on it, and whatever else I like that comes along since our cars are still new. Keep posting! Once again the car looks awesome and you have me extremely jealous. I'll drive my girlfriends 2009 E350 4Matic, wait, make that my 2009 E350 since I bought it for her and we are in the process of breaking up because I can't drive my Passat looking so stock. I'm going to order fogs now.
wow soo clean!!
Wheel Specs?
Opinions on tinted windows? I want to put a medium tint on it since I have a tan gut, and everyone else thinks I should keep it fish bowled it. Opinions on tints? From anyone?
I decided to add some color to my winter wheels
At ride height:
All down:
better pics soon
damn it looks hot with the BBS's
Looks minty for the winter.
Looks great Matt. You and Jose have the nicest winter wheels around!
A decent picture...

#1 Limestone Doubles Up Men's Lacrosse 10-5 in 2011 Title Game; Kirk, Lamarca and Rose Named to All-Tourney Team
April 17, 2011
Story Courtesy of Queens Sports Information
CHARLOTTE, N.C. Limestone College defeated Pfeiffer University by a score 10-5 Sunday afternoon in the 2011 Conference Carolinas Mens Lacrosse Tournament championship game at the Queens Sports Complex. The Saints remain undefeated on the season with the win at 14-0 while Pfeiffer drops to 10-5. The Falcons will have one more regular season contest Saturday traveling to Mars Hill.
The first quarter of play was all Limestone as the Saints outscored the Falcons 4-1.
Pfeiffer came charging back in period two notching three goals to Limestones one giving the game a 5-4 score at the break.
The third quarter was quiet as each team tallied only one goal making it a tight game heading in to the final quarter.
With the Falcons on their heels, Limestone was able to score four straight goals in the fourth clinching the tournament final victory.
Limestone outshot the Falcons 38-to-31, while Pfeiffer scooped up 23 ground balls to the Saints 20. Pfeiffer also won 11 of the 19 face-offs.
Thomas Langan led the Saints today with a hat trick while Shayne Jackson and Jackson Decker each found the back of the net twice. Jackson and Decker also recorded two assists apiece. Steve Gartelman took the win in goal after collecting 14 saves.
Justin Rose led the Falcons with two goals. Billy Rawson won all 11 face-offs for Pfeiffer. Hayden Kirk took the loss in goal after getting 16 stops.
All Tournament Teams were announced following the game. The team members are as follows:
Nick Boylan - Belmont Abbey
Matt Spivey - Belmont Abbey
Brandon MacKnew - Queens
Dane Blodgett - Queens
Riley Loewen - Limestone
Hayden Kirk - Pfeiffer
Spencer Wims - Limestone
Anthony LaMarca - Pfeiffer
Shayne Jackson - Limestone
Justin Rose - Pfeiffer
Jackson Decker - Limestone (MVP)


text: There are a couple of tricks when it come to changing bar tape. How much to bar tape overlaps as you wrap it is crucial. Too much and there won't be enough when you get to the end and too little and the tape will separate when it gets warm. The amount of bar tape that you leave at the end of the bar is important so that you have enough to hold the bar plug in. Don't forget your electric tape when changing bar tape so that you have something to anchor the shifter cables before you wrap the bars and also to anchor the end of the bar tape closest to the stem. Lastly you will need some scissors in order to cut the the end so that the bar tape runs parallel with the stem.

About the Rowing Club
This is a message to individuals on the Alcaltraz Invitational Waitlist.
We recently released 40 spots into the race. Participants have 48 hours to respond to the entry into the race. After that your registration link expires.
We may release another batch of tickets in the future, however I wanted to explain to you how the waitlist will work on race day.
The South End will open SAME DAY REGISTRATION, and I mean "SAME DAY REGISTRATION" on Sunday, September 29, 2013. After we check in all the swimmers we will release any spots of the "no-shows" to same day registrants. We will give preferance to swimmers on the waitlist, in order they are on the waitlist.
While you might think showing up for packet pickup on Saturday, September 28 might help you with this process, it won't.
Same day registration is issued on the same day of the race.
Hope this help answer a lot of questions I have been receiving.
Ann Turtle
Race Director
Dear Waitlisted Swimmers -
As it stands now we have over 100 people on the wait list and while we will take same day registration for waitlisted folks once we find out how many no-shows we have, there is NO guarantee that you will get a slot.
I know you've been practicing and want to swim this Sunday so one guaranteed alternative is to sign up for the RCP Tiburon Mile swim (actually 1.2 miles). This well-run event goes from Angel Island back to Tiburon and proceeds go to support Hospice by the Bay a non-profit who provide care and support for those in the final stages of life.
Registration will be open only through 11:59 tomorrow evening Thursday September 26, 2013 so don't delay. You can register at
Enjoy this great alternative BUT please remember to sign-up early for the 2014 South End Alcatraz Invitational.
Ann Turtle

OXFORD, Ohio – Riley Barber and Austin Czarnik posted three points apiece to lead the No. 12 Miami hockey team to a 4-2 win over Denver at Steve Cady Arena on Saturday night.
Barber had a hand in the RedHawks' (9-7-2, 3-5 National Collegiate Hockey) first three goals (1g, 2a) while Czarnik finished with two goals and an assist in their final regular season game of the calendar year.
One night after getting just one power play, Denver (8-6-2, 4-3-1-1 NCHC) got its first chance with the man advantage just under six minutes into the game. That power play lasted 58 seconds until Denver committed a penalty of its own, evening the teams at four aside with 13:14 remaining in the first period. Miami got 58 seconds to play on the power play itself, but only took one shot on goal during its special teams try.
The RedHawks appeared to be going back to the power play with 7:30 left in the stanza when Czarnik took a check from behind. However, Miami got whistled for a five-minute major and a game misconduct in retaliation, negating the chance to go up a man. With the teams playing 4-on-4 again, the Pioneers were caught with too many men on the ice at the 13:47 mark, giving the RedHawks a 4-on-3 power play.
While Miami technically went empty on the power play for the second time of the period, it got on the board just as the penalty expired. Czarnik one-timed a feed from Barber with 5:30 remaining in the period to give the RedHawks their first lead of the weekend. Kevin Morris also picked up an assist on the goal after digging the puck out of traffic.
After its second minor expired, DU went on its second power play of the game, but was unable to get anything past Jay Williams. The Red and White created some more chances thanks to a late power play, though it ended up settling for a 1-0 lead after 20 minutes of play. Miami outshot Denver 9-7 in the period.
Denver appeared to tie the game up midway through the second period when Trevor Moore beat Williams with a delayed penalty in progress, but officials waved the goal off on account of a DU player interfering with Williams in his crease. The RedHawks' penalty kill stood tall and killed off the ensuing power play without allowing a shot on goal.
Czarnik had an opportunity for his second of the night with under five minutes to play in the second when he forced a turnover at the blue line and skated in for a breakaway, but Sam Brittain made the save to keep it a one-goal game.
With 3:13 left in the second, the Red and White got another chance with the man advantage, though the power play lasted only 1:03 as DU's Grant Arnold drove to the net in transition and fired a point blank shot that Williams stood tall and stopped. A scuffle after the whistle resulted in coincidental minor penalties and one extra minor on the RedHawks, evening things at 4-on-4.
Once again, MU's special teams were just that, posting another perfect penalty kill without yielding a single shot attempt and maintaining Miami's 1-0 lead after two periods.
The RedHawks broke things open early in the third period thanks to two goals in a 2:11 span. Anthony Louis blocked a shot and Barber gathered the puck at the Miami blue line to break down the left side. The sophomore forward wristed a shot far side for his 11th goal of the year to make it 2-0 just 1:30 into the final period.
The RedHawks' pressure forced another Pioneer penalty, putting the Red and White back on the power play. It took only 10 seconds for Miami to solve the nation's top penalty killing unit as Sean Kuraly blasted a one-timer past Brittain at the 3:41 mark to make it 3-0. Barber and Czarnik each assisted on the play in a crisp passing display.
Denver would not let its seven-game unbeaten streak end without a fight and with 5:55 remaining, Matt Tabrum scored after a neutral zone turnover allowed him to skate into the middle of the ice and beat Williams.
Even with the goal, it appeared the RedHawks were well on their way to a win until they were whistled for a penalty with 29 seconds remaining on the clock. A cross-crease pass by Gabe Levin found Quentin Shore at the opposite side for a quick shot that Williams made an acrobatic stop on, but the rebound was sent in to cut the MU lead to 3-2 with five seconds left on the clock.
With the Denver net still empty, Czarnik won the faceoff forward and the puck rolled into the net for the captain's second of the evening, capping the scoring.
The RedHawks outshot the Pioneers 32-21 on the night and went 1-for-8 on the power play. The Pioneers went 1-for-7 with the man advantage and only took four shots on their power play.
Jay Williams earned the start in goal for Miami, stopping 19 of the 21 shots he faced while Sam Brittain made 28 saves on 31 shots.
The RedHawks are off until they play the USA Under-18 National Team in an exhibition on Dec. 31. That game starts at 4 p.m.

Starting Oct. 1, 2013, Washington state residents were eligible to enroll in health-care coverage through the Washington Health Benefit Exchange (Exchange). The program gives individuals and families the ability to choose a health insurance plan that best fits their needs and their budget. The state has seen more than 55,000 enrollments during the first month.
Swedish is proudly supporting the Exchange and the implementation of the Affordable Care Act in our state. We are working to inform our patients about Exchange options and to direct them to resources to access these new benefits. We are also sharing these best practices with other caregivers.
While we are collectively moving in the right direction, a transition of this scale is never seamless. That is why we strive to be a trusted resource to help our patients navigate these changes. Most recently, our patients have told us that there is confusion around which Exchange health insurance plans cover care at Swedish. As of Nov. 1, 2013, Swedish is a part of the following Exchange plans:
- Community Health Plan of Washington (CHPW)

- High Potency
- The Clinically Proven Choice
- Dietary Supplement
- World's Most Researched Fish Oil
A pioneering clinical study involved 30 subjects to assess the impact of NutraOrigin Fish Oil High Potency in alleviating symptoms associated with lack of sleep. In addition to the many well-known benefits, results in new areas proved astonishing.
Effects attributed to the NutraOrigin product, versus a placebo (identical capsules filled with olive oil), included:
- Improved emotional and physical well-being,
- Reduced anxiety,
- Reduced drowsiness,
- Improved accuracy on tests, and
- Improved reaction time.
Unlike most brands, which rely on anecdotal evidence, NutraOrigin's fish oil is the world's first line of supplements subjected to the same kind of rigorous clinical trials as are leading pharmaceuticals. See the enclosed insert for a full reprint of the study.
Omega-3 fatty acids have remarkable potential to improve human health and are recommended by most health-care professionals. Some benefits have been proven through placebo-controlled clinical trials of NutraOrigin products, and other benefits are still under study. NutraOrigin is the only brand of Omega-3 products tested in extensive clinical trials, thus the only brand that can guarantee benefits.
Manufacturers of fish oil supplements are only required to conform to Good Manufacturing Practices to insure the quality of their products. However, GMPs fall well short of the rigorous processes employed in pharmaceutical development and placebo-controlled trials — the processes employed by NutraOrigin to unlock the full potential of Omega-3 fatty acids for the human body.
In a groundbreaking double-blind study of NutraOrigin supplements, subjects in two groups were tested for reaction time, sleep deprivation, ability to focus, and other indicators. One group took NutraOrigin Omega-3 Fish Oil High Potency, and a second group took a placebo (identical capsules filled with olive oil). In the NutraOrigin group, test subjects demonstrated a significant improvement in all factors across the board. Please see the enclosed leaflet for a reprint of this study.
This product is the results of years of clinical research, development, and novel manufacturing techniques that establish a new reference for purity, potency, bioavailability and quality.

I recently downloaded the 2013 update and I've noticed it seems to take a good deal longer to do a scan of my hard drive than the 2012 version. The older version would scan between 10-15 minutes. Any idea why the newer version takes 30 minutes or more? Thanks

The athletes have their own Commission whose role is to make sure their interests are protected.
In 1981, the then-IOC President, Juan Antonio Samaranch, created the IOC Athletes' Commission. Its creation was confirmed by Rule 21 of the Olympic Charter.
The Commission, which meets once or twice a year, serves as a consultative body and is the link between active athletes and the International Olympic Committee (IOC). The Commission represents athletes within the Olympic Movement and also upholds the rights and obligations of the athletes.
Members of the Athletes' Commission are involved in the IOC's main commissions and working groups. The Chair of the Athletes' Commission serves as a member of the IOC Executive Board, and the Commission makes recommendations to the IOC's executive bodies.
The Athletes' Commission also works in liaison with commissions of the Continental Associations, individual National Olympic Committees and the International Sports Federations.
Every two years the Commission also organises an Athletes' Forum, where athletes from around the world and representatives of the International Federations of Olympic sports and the five Continental Associations of National Olympic Committees meet to discuss topics of direct concern to them.

Well to respond to the fellow who thought I was overreacting on account of the other upgrade cards that might be added in the set, these cards are only applicable to units that can take them. Not to standard, non-unique TIEs who Assault Missiles would hurt most. And yes, three TIE Advanced or four A-Wings all with Assault missiles would be a devastating force in the present tournament environment. Some lucky rolls give a player the opportunity to level an entire squadron in one turn's shooting with either of those builds.
As for why it couldn't be photocopied and sleeved, please refer to the tournament rules,
"Proxies are not allowed during tournament play, each player must use only the components included in official X-Wing products. Each ship must have the official ship base, official Ship and Upgrade cards and the correct, official ship model."
That pretty clearly details why you can't bring Assault Missile proxies to a tournament, which is the only environment these will be a problem in anyway… as when playing with your friends you can just house-rule Assault Missiles as you like to keep your game's balance somewhere near where it is now. I certainly won't use them in friendly games because I think they're an addition to the game that only limits options instead of expanding on them, in that it severely limits the effectiveness of swarm armies, Rebel or Imperial and makes already questionably costed characters like Howlrunner never worth their entire points value.
As concentrating fire in a tight formation is right now the only thing that really makes an Imperial swarm work, I question the wisdom of a single 5 point upgrade card essentially removing a themely and interesting build from competitive play entirely… which severely frustrates me even moreso because I've been running a seven TIE list, not because 8 TIEs is the flavor of the month, but rather because I think it fits well with the theme and I enjoy the imposing look of having many ships on the table. From a game-design standpoint, one should not even CONSIDER adding a silver bullet counter of that power until the competitive metagame has had time to evolve and a strategy has proven completely unbeatable without it.
As I mentioned in the other thread, this isn't a CCG where the threat of that counter will limit someone's strategic options. In order to limit your opponent's deployment, you also have to be using Assault Missiles. That's what renders swarm lists unusable. If you do not pack them yourself, your opponent can deploy to maximize their fire and take out a ship in the first couple turns for an early advantage that will remain all game. Your only recourse is to take assault missiles as well to force your opponent to also deploy spread out so you can have a game on even footing.

Improving Convergence of Multiphysics Problems
Walter Frei | December 23, 2013
In our previous blog entry, we introduced the Fully Coupled and the Segregated algorithms used for solving steady-state multiphysics problems in COMSOL. Here, we will examine techniques for accelerating the convergence of these two methods.
Load Ramping and Nonlinearity Ramping Techniques
As we just learned, the fully coupled approach to solving a steady-state nonlinear problem actually uses the exact same damped Newton-Raphson algorithm used to solve a single physics nonlinear problem. Although this algorithm does converge well for many cases, it can fail or converge very slowly if the choice of initial conditions are poor. It should come as no surprise then that the techniques we have already looked at, such as Load Ramping and Nonlinearity Ramping, are just as valid when applied to a multiphysics problem. In fact, there is really nothing to add to these techniques — they can be used equivalently.
Ramping Multiphysics Problems
There is one new variation of the nonlinearity ramping technique, and that is to ramp the coupling between the physics. Numerically, it is in fact identical to the nonlinearity ramping technique already discussed, but conceptually it is the magnitude of the couplings between the physics that is ramped up, rather than the magnitude of the nonlinearity in a single physics. The only difficulty is choosing, and implementing, the term that should be ramped. Luckily, most multiphysics problems have quite obvious couplings between the physics, which can be found simply by writing out the governing equations and boundary conditions and examining how the material properties and loads are dependent upon the variables being solved for.
The most important thing to remember is that the underlying algorithm used to solve a fully coupled multiphysics problem is exactly the same as the algorithm used to solve a nonlinear single physics problem. Keeping this in mind, you will find that fully coupled mutliphysics problems really do not pose any additional conceptual hurdles beyond understanding how the physics in the model interact with each other.
On the other hand, the segregated approach can lead to a variety of different solution strategies that can greatly accelerate solution convergence, and significantly affect the amount of memory needed to solve the problem. To understand this, let's make a flowchart of the different multiphysics solution techniques. Consider the same problem from our previous blog post about a busbar that heats up due to current flow and experiences thermal stresses.
Fully Coupled Approach
First, the fully coupled solver starts from an initial guess and applies Newton-Raphson iterations until the solution has converged:
When solving such a problem, you will get a Convergence Plot, which shows the error estimate decreasing between Newton-Raphson iterations. Ideally, the error should go down monotonically if it does converge, then start investigating ramping the loads, the nonlinearities, or the multiphysics couplings. This approach will almost always require a more memory-intensive direct solver to solve the linear system of equations in each Newton-Raphson step.
Segregated Approach
Now, compare the fully coupled approach to the segregated approach, which solves each physics sequentially until convergence:
You will get a different kind of convergence plot for such a problem, one that shows the error associated with each physics you are solving. Each of the physics can use the optimal solver, either the direct or the less memory-intensive iterative, to solve the linear system of equations. Each segregated step can be a nonlinear problem on its own, and can be solved to a desired tolerance, and with custom damping, as appropriate for the particular combination of physics problem being solved.
With this solution method, you will get at least two convergence plots, one for the iterative solver(s) possibly used within a segregated step, and a second for the overall convergence of the segregated approach:
The above plot shows the decrease in error for each physics. Although more iterations may be required for the same problem, each loop through the segregated solution approach can be much faster than the Newton-Raphson step required for the fully coupled approach. You can also get a little bit more information out of this, if only one or two physics are not converging, then you will want to check the set-up of these first.
Sequential Solution Step
One thing you may recall about this problem is that the temperature change is driven by the resistive heating from the current, and the current distribution depends upon the electrical conductivity, which is temperature-dependent. That is, the voltage and temperature solutions are bi-directionally coupled. On the other hand, although the thermal strain and the Young's Modulus are dependent upon temperature, the voltage and temperature solutions do not depend upon the displacements or stresses. That is, there is a uni-directional coupling from the thermal problem to the structural problem. We can immediately see that there is an even more efficient way to solve this problem. We can solve the voltage and temperature problem first and subsequently solve for the displacements:
So, we can see that there are (at least) three different ways of solving this problem: fully coupled, segregated and assuming couplings between all of the physics are segregated, or with a sequential solution step to take advantage of the uni-directional coupling between temperature and displacements. When solving a multiphysics problem, COMSOL will assume coupling between all physics, and try to choose the optimal fully coupled or segregated approach, based on the physics and the problem size. Of course, it is always instructive to go into the solver settings to see what settings the software has chosen.

Austin Dillon has been racing on the dirt quite a bit the past few years.
When not on the road competing in the Truck and now the Nationwide series, he takes a spin at places like 311 Speedway, Cherokee Speedway and Carolina Speedway in a dirt late model.
Team Dillon Racing, which includes Austin, his brother Ty Dillon, veteran racer Dale McDowell and his brother and crew chief, Shane McDowell, competes against the top drivers in the Lucas Oil, World of Outlaws, Carolina Clash, Ultimate and similar series.
Dale McDowell finished fourth and sixth in the two late model features at Eldora Speedway last week and was there to witness Austin Dillon win the inaugural Mudsummer Classic. Dillon started 19th and took the lead from Kyle Larson on lap 89. He held off Larson and Ryan
Newman, who battled behind him for the second spot. Larson finished second while Newman, Joey Coulter and Brendan Gaughan rounded out the top five.
"This is one of the biggest wins of my career," said Dillon, who got to take a shovel and dig in the dirt on the front stretch, an Eldora Speedway tradition. "I want to thank all the fans for coming out. I hope you enjoyed the race."
Ken Schrader became NASCAR's oldest pole award winner, posting a fast lap time of 19.709. Jared Landers, who holds Eldora Speedway's late model lap record with a time of 14.922, was second fastest with a 19.804. Heat winners were: Schrader, Kenny Wallace, Timothy Peters, Jeb Burton and Landers. Brennan Newberry won the Last Chance race and fan favorite Norm Benning raced his way into the main event.
"I was here for the Dream last year," Kings Mountain resident Richard Carroll said. "I like true racers, someone like Ken Schrader who comes to Carolina a lot. And I was a Stewart fan anyway; now I'm a bigger fan."
Carroll, who attended the race, is also a former crew member for Carolina Speedway racer Greg Barker.
Quotes from the Mudsummer Classic:
"It was a really great race all night. Tony did a great job. And I can't say enough about all these fans." -- Richard Childress, who celebrated his grandson Austin Dillon's at Eldora win
"Not having any laps on dirt hardly, we had to take everything into consideration and my guys made a couple of changes that we think are best for tonight. I need to kind of digest on what I need to do and hopefully we'll get a good lap and good starting spot. It's definitely different here and our team excels at change and challenge. Our goal tonight is to complete all the laps and come out of here in one piece and protect the points that we gained in Iowa." -- Timothy Peters, before he qualified third, won his heat and finished 6th in the Mudsummer Classic
"It's amazing, these fans. Getting here yesterday and practicing, they get here and when the gates open up, they're all running to put out their chairs. It's amazing to see all the people and how friendly they are. I just found out they've only had seven full-time people working here, so hats off to all the volunteers who come help Tony run this Eldora race. Tony's gonna make a heck of a lot of money-- everybody out there is buying either an Eldora hat or a shirt." -- Ron Hornaday Jr. on the excitement surrounding the inaugural Mudsummer Classic
"To have a chance to be in the last chance race and go ahead and win that was exciting. We had to race our way through the heats. I'm honestly glad we got to run those last 15 laps because we changed something with the truck and it was excellent. I worked so hard and wanted to be in this race more than anything. To come to Eldora and be part of the inaugural Mudsummer Classic on Dirt, that means the world." -- Brennan Newberry

The industry of hospitality is growing fast owing to many social and economical reasons in the modern world and this has brought up different career opportunities in the industry. Barista, Bar attendant, Chef, Concierge, Food and beverage manager, Hotel Service supervisor and waiter are only a handful of the career opportunities out of the endless list.
If you are interested in shaping your future as a barista, you will be glad to know that more than 2 billion coffee cups are made around the world in a day. According to payscale.com, the average hourly salary of a barista in Australia is $17 which can vary from $12.15 to $21.43 and qualifications and experience can boost it.
The term barista refers to a professional coffee maker but the obsession for coffee of a barista cannot be limited to a single term. It is an art that has to be nurtured with passion for coffee and this art can polish up the skills of a barista to make and serve coffee.
In the early days, the position of the barista was restricted to a qualified few who did not wish to share the techniques and tips of coffee making and therefore the occupation was dominated by particular set of families.
However in the modern world, these traditional techniques as well as new innovative tips and methods can be learnt by barista courses. The key tasks that are focused in coffee training can be summarized as –
- History of coffee and coffee making
- Coffee styles
- Selecting and grinding coffee
- Extracting coffee
- Operating the coffee machine
- Texturing milk
- Pouring patterns
- Roasting and blending
- Serving and presenting espresso
- Coffee presentation
- Cleaning, proper use and maintenance of equipment
Apart from the above mentioned tasks, cooperating with team members, greeting customers, taking orders and operating the cash register are also skilled in these courses.
In order to become a barista and work in a restaurant, the passion for coffee making is not sufficient. Formal qualifications play a significant role in fine tuning the skills and present you as a professional barista.
Unless you are learning to make coffee to impress your friends at the next dinner party, getting your hands on a recognized and legal document that certifies you as a barista is absolutely valuable. In Australia, Certificate III in Hospitality produces a qualified waiter and the same certificate is applicable to become a qualified barista.
There are many barista training schools that offer various types of certificates and the outcomes of each course, duration and course fees may vary. Most of these courses are offered by institutes that are linked to cafes, coffee shops, restaurants and hospitality training schools. With the advance of technology, online courses too are available but I doubt the efficiency of these courses since coffee making involves physical training.
The most important aspect to consider is the correspondence of the certificate with your expectations and it is wise to do a little personal research before deciding on the course you wish to join.…

Comments about Ergon GP5 Performance Comfort Grips 2014:
All is good, no downside for my riding. Wrist strain? Gone. Change hand position on bars easily, confidently. Easier to ride uphill, off the saddle, with these new grips. Haven't had to modify them to make them work like they should.

Comments about Ergon GP5 Performance Comfort Grips 2014:
I generally use a roadbike for commuting, so I'm used to the drop bars. Also, I had some wrist pain issues with my other bike (which has flat bars) a while ago.
This is why I've installed a pair of these grips on my winter commuting MTB. The installation proved to be a bit of hassle, since I didn't follow the instructions at first. :) However, when I was done with installation and fitting them at the angle that is right for me, they have shown to perform extremely well. That is, no pain!
Best Uses
Comments about Ergon GP5 Performance Comfort Grips 2014:
I was getting wrist pain from my old grips. With these grips, my hands feel great. The large surface area that bears the weight of the hands spreads the weight. They are extremely comfortable. I will never ride without Ergon grips again.
I also like this model, which has the bar ends. They are adjustable to any angle. For the first few rides, I would carry a 5mm key so that I could adjust the bar ends along the way. Now I have them exactly where I want them.
Note that these bar ends are not metal, so they cannot have a mirror mounted on them. If you want a mirror on the end of the bar end, then try the GP1, which does not have bar end. Mount the grips slightly inboard from the end of the bar, so that there is room for a regular bar end.
For the GP5, I drilled out the end of the left-side grip (it's just plastic), and mounted a "3rd Eye Bar End Mirror". It works great.

Your guide to the holiday movie season
Focus Features, Laurie Sparham
Keira Knightley plays the title role, a Russian aristocrat, in Tolstoy's "Anna Karenina," which opens Nov. 21.
Focus Features, Nicola Dove
Bill Murray plays President Franklin D. Roosevelt in 1939 in "Hyde Park on Hudson," opening Dec. 14.
Paramount Pictures, Karen Ballard
Tom Cruise plays Jack Reacher, based on the character in the Lee Child books, in the crime drama "Jack Reacher," which opens on Dec. 21.
Paramount Pictures, DreamWorks Animation
A scene from the animated "Rise of the Guardians," an adventure with Santa Claus, the Easter Bunny and other mythical beings battling an evil spirit. It opens Nov. 21.
Two principles are at play: It's a lucrative time to open new movies, and it's a chance to get attention for those offbeat films that need awards to stay alive.
How can you tell the difference? Well, in November, a movie about our 16th president will be somber and slow and contain an astonishing performance by Daniel Day-Lewis. In summer, Abraham Lincoln is a vampire hunter.
Steven Spielberg's "Lincoln" opened last week, in competition with that other perennial movie hero, James Bond (in the blockbuster "Skyfall"). This weekend the Big One is the final chapter in the "Twilight" phenomenon, and they'll come in a flood after that.
So we've got some animation for young folks, a big Tom Cruise action flick and some distinguished-sounding performances that will surely be flirting with Oscar. Quentin Tarantino is back, and so is Alfred Hitchcock (in a way).
Abe Lincoln won't be the only president in the awards derby; Franklin Roosevelt also makes the scene, in the person of Bill Murray. And who would've predicted that, in the days of "Meatballs"?
There'll be a huge, splashy musical in the form of "Les Miserables," which is something of a gamble, and a throwback to an ancient form of special-event moviemaking.
But when it comes to reading the anticipation meter, these movies frankly pale next to a little thing called "The Hobbit." The success of Peter Jackson's "Lord of the Rings" trilogy guarantees a monster audience for this prequel to the J.R.R. Tolkien saga, and it's another trilogy in the making, as Jackson has divided the novel into three pictures.
So let's sort through the next few weeks (with the usual warning about release dates changing at the last minute). Here's the season, and pass the gravy: Click here to see capsules and premiere dates.

Cat Addisons Disease
Cat Addison's Disease (Feline Hypoadrenocorticism)
Addison's disease or hypoadrenocorticism is a disorder of the endocrine system due to insufficient production of the adrenal gland hormones. Addison's disease affects young cats, although it is a relevantly rare disease. The condition is very treatable but can be fatal without proper veterinary care.
The most common cause of Addison's disease in cats is the destruction of the adrenal tissue, mainly due to the over active response of the cat's immune system, causing it to attack and destroy its own tissues. Other causes that can also cause the condition are diseases of the pituitary gland, adrenal gland infiltration due to lymphosarcoma, and certain infections. In rare cases, the cause can be due to an abrupt discontinuation of a steroid medication.
Therefore, cats that have been on steroids for any condition over a long period of time should always be weaned off of them slowly so as to avoid Addison's disease.
Signs and Symptoms
The signs and symptoms of Addison's disease in cats are often very vague and usually mimic other diseases. The clinical signs to watch out for may include vomiting, weight loss, dehydration, excessive thirst (polydipsia), lethargy, poor appetite, weakness, excessive urination (polyuria), low heart rate, shaking, and low body temperature.
The signs and symptoms of the disease are most commonly misinterpreted as an infection of the gastrointestinal tract (bacterial, viral, or fungal), cat Kidney Disease (pyelonephritis or acute kidney failure), inflammatory bowel disease (IBD), neoplasia or cancer of the gastrointestinal tract (adenocarcinoma or hymphosarcoma), hypercalcemia-causing diseases (parathyroid gland disease and cancer), urinary blockage, and pancreatitis.
Because the disease can mimic other diseases, it is necessary to confirm the diagnosis. This can be done by undergoing clinical tests such as a complete blood count (CBC), physical examination, complete medical history, urinalysis, and a blood biochemistry profile.
One of the best methods of diagnosing Addison's disease is through an ACTH stimulation test. This is a timed blood test administered by a veterinarian, which measures the functionality of the adrenal glands.
Depending on the clinical symptoms, some veterinarians may require a possible abdominal ultrasound and radiographs (x-rays) of the chest and abdominal areas in order to rule kidney disease and other urinary tract issues, as well as to determine the size of the adrenal glands.
The treatment for Addison's disease in cats usually depends on the severity of the symptoms and conditions.
For the acute phase, also known as the Addisonian crisis, usual treatments include the administration of intravenous fluids in an attempt to raise a cat's sodium levels and lower it's potassium levels; mineralocorticoid and corticosteroid replacement therapy, and monitoring of electrolyte and acid-base balance. Treatments for the chronic stage include daily salt supplement and mineralocorticoid and corticosteroid replacement therapy.
Glucocorticoids such as methylprednisolone acetate, prednisone and dexamethasone are indicated during the acute state and can be used as a long term therapy, depending on the case. Mineralocorticoids, on the other hand, are available in oral form (Florinef) and in an injectable form (desoxycorticosterone pivalate or DOCP). This treatment is usually given for the entire lifespan of the cat.
If your cat is receiving steroid medication, it is never recommended to stop the medication abruptly as it can cause Addison's disease. Other than that, there are no measures that can prevent the disease.
Home Care
At home, it is necessary to continue any medications that are prescribed by your veterinarian and remember to closely observe your cat's appetite, water intake, and activity levels. Signs that need to be immediately reported to your veterinarian include weakness, vomiting, change in appetite and diarrhea.
To monitor your cat's response to treatment and improvement of the condition, it is necessary to have regularly scheduled visits to your veterinarian.
It is also a good idea to either avoid or prepare for any circumstances that may cause your cat any undue physical or emotional harm or stress, such as strenuous exercise, surgeries, or a sudden change in your cat's normal daily routine or their environment. It you do foresee any stress in your cat's immediate future, you should consult with your veterinarian so that they may adjust your cat's treatment accordingly.

I use this on very snowy days, when I know my vehicle will be sitting out doors for long periods of time. It is great because it only takes a minute or two to use. The sewn in magnets place securly to the frame or window in seconds. Although there is a little cleaning of hard ice off the cover when removed,... which takes only seconds to slide right off,this is much better then scraping the whole window!
