Similar Products Used: Just about everything. Yeti, Dean, Manitou, Pro-Flex, Trek Fuel, etc.
Bike Setup: Race Face LP ISIS Cranks, Manitou Mars Elite fork, Mavic Crossmax UST, Sram XO derailure and shifters, Avid Arch Rival Supreme brakes and Ultimate levers, Thomson post and stem. Easton carbon bar.
Date Reviewed: March 13, 2002
Strengths: The El Fuego is the best balanced, responsive and quickest technical climber and trials bike I have ever been on. This thing will clean anything with ease. I have muscled up 12 ft boulders and dropped 5 ft off the other side without so much as a wimper. The back fox shock and set up is a dream. It handles 6 ft drops without so much as a wimper. I love riding this bike so much it has made me a much better rider. Definitely worth the price!
Weaknesses: The bomber 80 mm front fork. Can't handle big hits. The bushings but they replaced them with sealed bearings and 3" of travel for 2002! Throw on a 100mm bomber and you've got a great bike!
Bottom Line:
But it will teach you how to ride technical and if your like me you will eventually surpass its abilities. I am looking at the La Bruza as an upgrade. They will give me $820 US for my El Fuego frame towards the new frame. Not bad for the amount of abuse my El Fuego took.

am comparing it to my Santa Cruz.It is quicker handling and

penny. Eddie.

Date Reviewed: September 7, 2000
Bottom Line:
Nobody ever looked closely to the welds of their bike anyway but now Gibson got a stiff one on his own welds and wanted to let the world know by putting these stupid `sex welds` stickers on his frames. Due to this sticker a lot of people are raving about Gibson`s welding `art`. I wonder if they have ever been outside.
The problem is, maybe for Gibson these welds are the top of his own capabilities but did he ever checked out the work of other bike welders? I can name a few like Frank the Welder (FTW), former Yeti frame builder. Leaves Gibson`s welds far behind. I did not hear him about his welds, I just knew.
Gibson`s welds are laying to much on top of the material, the end of the weld stops to far over the starting point which results in a thick part in the weld creating a stress point.
Cannondale does it right here by grinding and smoothing the welds but still your welds have to be perfect before you do this or the weld will be weak.
FTW`s welds are flat (smooth), good burn in in the material and good endings. And what about GT`s top framesets? Those are good welds too!
The thing is, I just wish Gibson would not try to show off while at the same time there are better welders out there. Ventana makes nice bikes no doubt, but the `Sex Welds` sticker is in my eyes too much about nothing.

light, stiff, quick handling
none yet
Bottom Line:
I needed another bike while waiting for the custom
Decided to get an ElFuego
well, it's a very fast bike, extremely stiff laterally, (and I hate to use this) corners like it's on rails, very precise handling, extremely nimble and quick
is it better than a Racerx?
no, not better, different
in the same league for sure, the Racerx is AWESOME and indestructible, I am having a custom made so I obviously love it...
This is as quick handling for sure, surprisingly so, not quite as stable bombing off of ledges as the Racerx but it may edge it out slightly in the climbing department, slightly, maybe...if you are in the market for an extremely fast and quick handling fs frame/bike and the Racerx doesn't grab you or the geometry doesn't fit you, look at the ElFuego
both are absolute topnotch

I have a 2002 El Fuego, still holding up great. Just had all my bushings (yes all) replaced. Cost about $70 which seems quite reasonable. By the look of it, the main pivot should be upgradeable to bearing. I asked Ventena about this but they did not reply. Any thoughts?Read More »

At 4.30p.m to take Liam's statement. I am cross it has taken this long as the robbery took place on Friday. But anyway what is the right etiquette for having the police round.
1) Should i sit them in the kitchen or the living room.
2) Should i offer hot or cold drinks.
3) Should i have baked a cake or just offer a plate of Tesco value biscuits.
I know this seems light hearted but i think humour is going to get me through . As hearing Liam recount the events is not something i am looking forward to.

I'm not planning on pulling out anything from my TSP/401 anytime in the next 18+ years.
I do plan on taking advantage of the next dip. It's gambling in slow motion. I understand that. I never bet more than I can afford to lose.

Belkin Modem Router F6D 4630-4 v2 Blinking internet light when not in use.

Please can anyone help me, I know nothing about routers. Why all of a sudden does my internet light on my modem flash orange when I have turned off my computer. I looked up in the manual troubleshoot section. It says the blinking orange light (which is normally steady green when in use) is trying to connect to the internet. I don't understand that when the computer is turned off. I am able to connect to the internet ok. To get rid of the flashing light I turn off the modem when I finish using the computer each time.

I have a Netgear DGN2200 (N300) and only upgraded from a Netgear DG834G which I used for well over 5 years because I wanted a better wireless signal. In my experience the Netgear routers are simple to set up and very reliable.

If you are a gamer that uses a headset, you know that it has to be high quality in order to be ahead of the game. You want to know which direction enemies are in, and you want it to sound like you are in the game. We are taking a look at the Altec Lansing AHS602i gamers headset, which includes many features that may appeal to the hardcore gamer.
What makes this headset special though, is the SRS 3D Audio technology. What this does essentially, is allows you the ability to play a game in surround sound, theoretically, with the headset. Generally speaking, this should make the games you play sound much better using Surround Sound, rather than choosing the regular Headphones option. This can be controlled via the remote that you see in the pictures. That control allows you to adjust the volume, and depth of the surround sound. Unrelated to the sound, the control also has a clip so that you can attach it to your shirt if need be.
Lastly, the control requires 1 AAA battery, which is not included. Now that we have got the specifics covered, let's jump into testing this baby.
I tested the AHS602i using Music, Movies and of course, Games. The sound card I am using is the Chaintech AV-710, which the headset will be directly plugged into.
Of course, this headset is being touted for gamers, so it only makes sense that we test it out using two of the most popular team based FPS on the net! In Counter-Strike: Source, I played a round through the cs_office level, using the "Headphones" audio selection, as well as the "5.1". In Battlefield 2, I played through the Dalian Plant map, and had selected high audio quality, plus EAX support. I did not have the option to use the Ultra High audio quality setting.
As much as I love CS: Source, it's not exactly a game that stands out in the audio department. Even so, a good headset should help you determine where the enemy is, as that's extremely important in this game. The headset performed greatly here, and the sound was crisp and clear, even at loud volumes. That's important.. it was so clean sounding that it didn't give me a headache like a previous headset may have. As for Battlefield 2, this is the type of game that this headset was made for! The tanks, firing and chat sounded incredible. Overall, the game was very enjoyable just because of this audio boost. It sounded great without the boost, but when it was enabled.. wow.
Regardless of what game you are playing, it should technically sound better using the booster. In CS: Source, I would have figured that the 5.1 setting would have sounded leaps and bounds better than the headphone setting, but I was wrong. The headphone setting sounded better and clearer, and also could reach higher volumes. So I guess it would pay to experiment with the settings in each individual game to see what sounds better with this headset.
I can't help but be very impressed with this headset. I have verified with my teammates, that I came in loud and clear. Since being able to communicate with your teammates is a top priority, you want to be clear enough so that they will understand… and the AHS602i delivers.

Who says seniors in high school take the easy way out?
Chelcie Swartwout, Chelsea Adams, Amber Rogers, and Justin Allen, all seniors at Eaton High School, embarked on a journey through Preble County's history which all began in Randy McKinney's History of Preble County class.
The Gade House, located in downtown Eaton, has been many businesses and a home to many people over the years, however, these teens believe it's time for the building to receive the recognition it deserves.
"They started working on trying to get the Gade house recognized with a State Historical Marker, and when they began the process, they called the State Historical Society which actually sent them an application to get it approved as a National Historic site," said McKinney. However, the Nnational application was sent by mistake, as the students noticed the application was more difficult than anticipated.
"We just gotta think of funding, because it's really expensive to get that accomplished. It's up to a six-month wait for approval once we submit it. I was hoping we could get it submitted like next week," said Swartwout. "And then we need to find someone for maintenance and all that stuff."
The student's next move is to begin asking local businesses for financial support.
The owners of the building, Rick Gade and Cathy Gade, contacted McKinney asking for his students to tour the building. "Mr. Gade offered us the opportunity to try to get it to become an Ohio Historical Marker. He offered the whole class, and nobody wanted to do it except us four," said Allen. "So then we took it on by ourselves."
The History of Preble County course, offered the first semester of their senior year, came to an end in December, however, the four students wanted to carry on their project into their second semester. "We went to the principal, Mr. Couch, and asked him if we could get into an Independent Study class so we could work on this, and he gave us permission to do that," said Allen.
The Independent Study class is seen as a "flex" credit, which students can only pass or fail.
"So we weren't forced to do this," said Allen.
"I'll be honest here, I took the class because I'm a senior. I don't have any other classes to take. It turned out to be a fun experience, obviously we're still doing it. We took interest in it and I'm pretty proud of us, too. We've come this far, why not keep going?," said Swartwout.
The History of Preble County course taught by McKinney was born five years ago and has been ever-changing since. "I thought it was a shame when I had kids in U.S. History and we would talk about a certain period in history and they had no way of connecting it to local history," said McKinney. "It's a self-directed, non-traditional classroom. I will give them things to give them a grade on, in terms of packets and this and that, and we'll discuss it; but a lot of it is self-driven and self-directed and that is what I was really looking for." McKinney explains that the four students are exceptional in their desire to take this particular history lesson even further.
"There have been a lot of obstacles, I'll be honest," said Swartwout. "Technical issues, snow days, where we have less and less time to get it accomplished." Adams explains the national application was a significant obstacle for the group, in that once they were told they were completing the wrong application, the group was close to giving up.
Rogers said she had been to the Genealogy room of the Preble County District Library, "They were very helpful. They helped me figure out a ton of stuff that we didn't know," she said.
"The Gades have been great because they offered an opportunity, and they've turned it into more than an opportunity for these guys and I'll say this now, I know Rick was kinda skeptical at first whether or not these guys were really willing to take it and do really what he kinda hoped they might be willing to do and has been really happy that they have," said McKinney.
To the Gades, Swartwout said, "Our goal was to get this done for you guys but at the same time, make sure everything was what you guys wanted. It's not about us, we're seniors, we're going to go to college and stuff, but at the same time, it's an experience of a lifetime for us we get to do this for you guys."
"It's a way to preserve history in Eaton," said Rick Gade.
Rick Gade, a native of Preble County, finds his passion in restoring older homes in the area. However, this specific building has proved to be far more interesting to him than the rest. "We've found a lot of Preble County artifacts," said Rick Gade. "And a lot Civil War artifacts," said his son, Ryan Gade.
"They have a very significant history. We're talking a U.S. President stayed overnight in the home," said Ryan. The home, located on the second floor of the building, housed William Henry Harrison for an evening.
Rick said the students' involvement in the project has inspired his desire to make the building a museum.
"I think maybe an old-fashioned General Store and museum would bring, keep the history alive. Some people may be interested in seeing parts of the building where President William Henry Harrison stayed and all the artifacts. Plus some people in the community might want to loan stuff for other people to look at," said Rick Gade. He also said his appreciation of the history of Preble County has increased since beginning his work with the students.
Since beginning his work on the building, Rick Gade has unearthed various artifacts including a trading card from one Preble County founder, Cornelius Van Ausdal's trading post. Other artifacts include a flier from Wounded Union Soldiers from 1863, newspapers from the era, and shoes. "I almost don't have time to work on [the building], I keep finding historical stuff," said Rick.
"The thing I've always heard about, when people find an old shoe in a house it's usually a single shoe, or boot, or whatever. I've always heard that's for good luck. They would throw one in the attic, or even in an old wall if they were repairing it and they would leave it there. Never two, never the whole pair, just one," said McKinney. "And we've never found both pairs," said Ryan Gade.
Cathy Gade explains that the group has found artifacts from the years of 1840 to 1870, and nothing further. Also recovered from the home years ago, was the first piano on the Western-side of the Allegheny Mountains, which now can be found in the Preble County Historical Society.
Finding it difficult to categorize his new building, Rick Gade said, "I found a zoning book from 1858 for the City of Eaton, so I'm going by those zoning rules."
Ryan Gade said he has experienced what could be believed as paranormal activity in the building such as doors becoming locked where there is no key to lock them.
McKinney is confident that the building will be acknowledged by the Ohio Historical Society.
Ways to donate to the project are to be decided.

Archaeology Colleges and Universities in the U.S.
Depending on the degree-level and specialization, an archaeology degree program can prepare a student to become a museum curator, preservation specialist, laboratory technician or researcher. Programs vary in the specializations, fieldwork and laboratory experiences they offer. Continue reading to learn more about how to choose an archaeology school and the available degree programs.
How to Choose an Archaeology Program
Students can find archaeology programs at 4-year colleges and universities.
Summary of Important Considerations
- Education and career goals
- Practical experience opportunities
- Course offerings
Education and Career Goals
Archaeology programs are offered at the bachelor's, master's, and doctoral degree levels and are often housed within anthropology departments. A student's education level and career aspirations dictate which program is most appropriate for him or her to attend. However, regardless of degree-level, students may want to consider attending a program that includes fieldwork, laboratory training and classroom-based learning to ensure that they receive exposure to all three aspects of the field.
Practical Experience Opportunities
Most entry-level archaeology positions require a bachelor's degree as well as field and lab experience. Students may wish to choose a school that operates an archaeology dig site to gain field experience and one that offers state-of-the art laboratory equipment to study excavated artifacts. Having field and lab experience may be helpful for finding an entry-level position after graduation.
Graduate students should also investigate whether a program offers coursework and field experiences in the specialty of their interest. This will ensure that they receive training and are prepared for employment in their specialization after graduation from the program.
Course Offerings
Bachelor's degree students without a specifically defined area of interest may want to choose a program that allows them to take courses in several different areas, such as ancient civilizations, art history or Eastern history. This type of program will provide a broad introduction into the different types of archaeology, and possibly help students identify their specific area of interest. It may also provide students with a broad base of skills that will appeal to employers seeking to fill entry-level positions.
Archaeology Program Overviews
Bachelor of Arts in Archaeology
Generally, an archaeology bachelor's degree program prepares students to work in a lab or to complete a graduate-level program in the field. Students in these programs usually must complete coursework in:
- Ancient civilizations
- Foreign languages
- Anthropological archaeology
Most programs also include fieldwork and laboratory components. A research project may be optional.
Master of Arts in Archaeology
Archaeology master's degree programs typically allow students to specialize in a specific archaeological field. Available concentrations may include African prehistoric archaeology, old world archaeology or new world historical archaeology. Most programs include comprehensive exams and require students write a thesis or complete a master's project. Graduates of these programs may be prepared for careers in museum curation or historic preservation. Courses found in a master's degree program might include:
- Politics and archaeology
- Biblical archaeology
- Greek archaeology
- Zooarchaeology
Doctor of Philosophy in Archaeology
Doctoral programs in archaeology train students to become researchers, educators or museum curators. Students in these programs complete courses, fieldwork and laboratory work in their specialties, and receive additional training in quantitative methods, biology and physical science. Students must pass qualifying exams and complete a dissertation. These programs take 4-6 years to complete. Coursework might include:
- Archaeological theory
- Research methods in archaeology
- Ancient urbanism

How weird is this- my best friend and I got pregnant on the SAME DAY. However, she is in the middle of a miscarriage. I don't know what to say or do for her. How awful is it to know that your BFF is still carrying while you are losing yours? Any thoughts??
BFF lost her June '13 baby... I'm still carrying

All I can suggest is be all about her for as long as she needs you to be, and try to understand if she needs her space from you for a little while, or equally she may want to be totally involved and included in your happy time...Really just accept whatever she needs from you, for as long as she needs it.
You stop and think about it a lot of things have to be right
To have a baby. My SIL and I found out we were pregnant at the same time last December and three of my close friends as well. I ended up miscarrying and it's hard, but be there and talk to her and listen. I felt like people felt like they had to hid their symptoms and excitement from me and that made me feel horrible. Also I hate when people told me my time would come or that I'm so young. It's frustrating and people usually don't want to hear it. Tell her how sorry you are and when she starts feeling better let her be apart of your pregnancy if she wants. I didn't go to my SIL's baby shower. I decided at the last minute it'd be too hard. And when I went to visit the new babies in the hospital it was hard. The whole month of September was hard for me but I promise it's okay to hurt for her and be there for her and it's okay to be excited about your baby. She will be excited for you too and just because she's hurting and probably will be for a while but she will be happy for yoU too. Hugs. Sorry to hear that. I wouldn't wish that on anyone.

Thanks!! I have been checking in on her. And told her yesterday that if she needed some space I TOTALLY understood. She had tried hard for this one, and it was really easy for me. I just hate it!! I don't know what to say to her, but don't want her to suffer alone....

She called me the day after the mc and asked if she could come over and spend time with me. All I could think of was not wanting to her about her pregnancy and so on. I told her I would rather her not. 45 min later I was wishing otherwise. She texts me shortly after asking if she can come over and that she really feels led to.
She came over and just sat and watched movies with me. She was wonderful. She has never mentioned her pregnancy once around me unless I asked. She knows the pain I suffer in a different way. For 4 years her doctor told her she had no hope because of her epilepsy. God cured her.
Just be there for her. Don't bring anything up unless she wants to talk about it..your pregnancy or her miscarriage. My sil never asked about my miscarriage, she just offered prayer. I coulnd't be more thankful for her support.
Also..don't feel the need to offer advice. There is not one thing you can say to heal her hurt. Some people said the stupidest things to me. I'm sure they just thought they were helping and trying to make me look to the "bright side", but there is no brightside to a miscarriage. The support from other women who went through a loss didn't even help. Christ and my dh are my rocks. Just remember that.
My close friend and I were pregnant at the same time 5 years ago and I miscarried. It was really hard. She was trying to make me feel better but made me feel worse by saying things like "well at least it was early." I was really hurt by her seemingly flippant attitude, even though I know you just don't know how it feels until it happens to you. You just have no idea how much emotional pain something like that can cause.
Different people grieve differently and I needed space, particularly after the way she initially reacted (she did apologize later when I told her how much that hurt). Yes you have every right to be happy and not feel bad, but she has every right to be upset and not want to talk about what she lost. Unfortunately that might be tied in her mind to what you are gaining. I just couldn't do it - I couldn't bring myself to ask about or talk about her pregnancy for months, but my friend and I did end up making it through. I eventually could talk about it a little and was one of the first people who got the phone call about her son. She had her baby on my due date when I still wasn't even pregnant, so I sincerely congratulated her and then hung up the phone and cried for myself. I love her son but losing a baby you really wanted is really hard and not being pregnant again yet really hurt. I did get pregnant with my younger daughter that next month though, and all that stuff is just water under the bridge now.
Just try to be there for her in the way she needs. Yes my friend had a bad first reaction but she never pushed the fact that I couldn't talk about her pregnancy, which was being a good friend. In return, I attempted to push through my pain to talk about her pregnancy to be a good friend to her. Someday, I'm sure this will just a bump in the road. Hugs to your friend.
May 2006, April 2009, June 2013
It happened to me and my BFF ended up taking the name I had picked for my baby (I was the one who miscarried). If she is a good person, she will understand and will be happy for you. I was. (But must confess DH wasn't too happy about the name stealing).
Encourage her to try again soon and understand that m/c happens! Good luck, I'll pray for her.
Me (28) + DH (34)
Two m/c at 5weeks (2009) :(
Rainbow baby EDD 6/7/13 (6+7=13!)
I spoke with her today and she offered details, and that was that. Maybe because she knows I wont BS her and say stupid things often?
She's going to have a memorial tattoo of this baby (she's an ink chick) and I think it's awesome. And jealous because no ink for me right now!
I had a fair bit of grief after her son was born because she had healthy baby and my 1st is very ill. So hopefully we will just pull back together again. I just need her to tell what she needs from me.

Jefferson Elementary bomb threat came from overseas IP address | News
From Pullman Public Schools:
Jefferson Elementary was temporarily evacuated this morning after a reported bomb threat was heard in a phone message left on the Jefferson Elementary School main phone voicemail on Wednesday evening.
The caller indicated the school was unsafe and mentioned a bomb in the building. After hearing the message around 8:00 A.M this morning, school staff immediately evacuated the school and called the police. School buses had not yet delivered students so they were diverted to the high school until a decision could be made about the school day.
Teachers and other staff did a wonderful job keeping the several students who had already arrived at school away from the school building and calm. The police did a thorough search of the school followed by each teacher check their room for anything that might be out of the ordinary.
At approximately 9:30 A.M. the police turned the school back over to the school district with confidence that the school was safe. Students were invited into school and the teachers and staff did a fabulous job making the rest of the day as normal as possible.
In a follow-up with the Pullman Police Department, the District learned that the call came from an IP address overseas. It is most likely that the information the caller had regarding the school was found on our website and that there is no actual threat.
The District is grateful for the professional expertise shown by the Pullman Police Department and for its immediate response and assistance. Principal Craig Nelson and the Jefferson staff reacted professionally and effectively to take excellent care of the students. The transportation department was very helpful as busses were diverted to Pullman High School until the school could reopen. We appreciate the patience, flexibility, and cooperation shown by impacted families as Jefferson was evacuated and later re-opened this morning.
As always, the safety of all of our students is of primary concern to us and we will continue to review safety and crisis plans on a frequent basis.

Illumination of the Check Engine Light can be caused by a loose or worn gas cap.
2001 Chevrolet Lumina Problem Reports
Newest 2001 Chevrolet Lumina Problem Reports
The intake manifold gasket may develop and external engine oil or coolant leak. In some cases, an internal coolant leak may occur causing coolant to mix with the engine oil. Our technicians tell us that operating the engine with a coolant/oil mix can result in internal engine damage. Replacing the intake manifold gasket should correct these leaks.
The crankshaft position sensor, ignition module, and/or powertrain control module (PCM) may fail resulting in illumination of the Check Engine Light with ignition system related fault codes stored in the PCM. Patience is necessary when dealing with this specific situation as normal diagnostic procedures are not effective. In many cases, the best option is to replace parts, one at a time until the fault is corrected.
Corrosion may develop at the connection between the ignition coil tower and spark plug wire resulting in an engine misfire. The Ignition coil and spark plug wire should both be replaced to correct this condition.
An engine oil leak may develop from the rear of the engine. This is commonly caused by a failed oil pump drive o-ring seal. The leaking o-ring should be replaced to correct this concern.
The catalytic converter may become plugged resulting in loss of engine power. General Motors has extended the catalytic convertor warranty on some models to 10 years or 120,000 miles. Please contact your local GM dealer to see if your vehicle is included.
The display on the heater and AC control panel may become dim or go completely blank. Our technicians tell us the control panel must be replaced to correct this fault.
The upper intake manifold gasket and/or a PCV vacuum lines/hoses can develop vacuum leaks with age. This type of leak can result in a higher that normal or rough idle.
Acid may leak from the battery at the cable connections, resulting in corrosion on the battery cable ends and in the battery tray. A Leaking battery should be replaced and the cables thoroughly cleaned or replaced if necessary.
The transmission pressure control solenoid may fail causing erratic shifting. Our technicians tell us that partial dis-assembly of the transmission is necessary to replace a failed pressure control solenoid.
The fuel pump may fail causing engine to stall and not restart.
A coolant leak may develop from the water pump. The engine may overheat as a result of the coolant loss. A leaking water pump should be replaced.
The steering may develop a clunk type noise from the upper intermediate steering shaft. Our technicians tell us that you should check with your local GM dealer to find out what the latest repair is for this condition.
The high pressure power steering hose will commonly leak fluid; it should be replaced.

07 October 2013 15:58 [Source: ICIS news]
BERLIN (ICIS)--Demand for petrochemicals and investment into the sector is set to rise as Egypt's political turmoil normalises and international confidence grows in the country, an industry executive from Cairo said on Monday.
"Petrochemical future is very bright for Egypt," Maged Shafick, Managing Director, Life Chemical Group, - a leading petrochemical distributor in the country - told ICIS on the sidelines of the 47th annual European Petrochemical Association (EPCA) meeting.
"Tourists are back, which means confidence is returning. This will lead to investments," Shafick said.
Egypt underwent a revolution in January 2011 resulting in the end of a near 30-year rule of president Hosni Mubarak.
Shafick said the petrochemical sector had suffered tremendously over the last couple of years because of political upheavals, protests, lack of security, infiltration of subversive elements in the country from neighbouring states, the escape of 25,000 prisoners and a complete breakdown of law and order.
However, things started improving after the military overthrew the government of Muslim Brotherhood President Mohamed Morsi in June this year in the form of a second revolution, Shafick said.
"They [the military] now have a plan to move Egypt forward," he said, adding that the incumbent government wants to attract investments and normalise the currency, which has fallen by almost 30% against the US dollar in the last couple of years.
Factories were being restarted and the country was being rebuilt, he said.
"For the last five months things are moving in the right direction."
Shafick's business group also has plans to go into manufacturing in a joint venture with a state-owned holding company to make ethyl acetate but he said it was too early to give any details. "It is not a fixed plan," he added.
The EPCA meeting is being held on 5-9 October in Berlin.

|Do you need child care a couple of times a week, but different days each week? Or only a few times a month? Or maybe you need care a lot at times, and not other times at all? Or just whenever the need arises? Or would you rather not have to drive so far to find routine care?
If a day care center is not for you, but you need care day time / week day hours when the average babysitter is in school …
Let's talk. No set schedule required (but they are ok, if that is best for you), no minimum hours expected – we just need to agree in advance as to days and times, so we can both plan our time accordingly.
Personal home-based child care for those less than full time needs is now available in the ----------- area.
I am a mid-30's, college educated, SAHM with two young children and would be interested in providing your child or children in my home.
I am not looking for a house full, I want to give each child the same attention I give mine.
"Child care facility" or "facility" means a child care center, a preschool, or a registered child development home.
"Child care home" means a person or program providing child care to five or fewer children at any one time that is not registered to provide child care under this chapter, as authorized under Iowa Code section 237A.3.
"Child development home" means a person or program registered under this chapter that may provide child care to six or more children at any one time.
Age Range Ratio For Family Child Care
All ages (1:6)

Sewage gushing out of manholes, a perennial problem
KANCHEEPURAM: Sewage gushing out of manholes and flowing on carriageways has become a perennial problem for the residents of Olimohammedpet, entry point to the Kancheepuram Municipality from Vellore.
Two years ago, people entering the civic body limits from Vellore through the Kancheepuram-Vellore Road were greeted by a foul smell of sewage that gushed out of manholes and stagnated on the roads. Several persons belonging to the area took ill and cases of fever and diarrhoea were reported. Water supply to the area was suspended for a few days and underground drainage network cleaned by the civic body authorities on a war footing. Regular drinking water supply was then restored and the situation improved.
However, for the past six months, residents of Varadappamudali Street have complained of sewage overflow from manholes and drainage outlet channels in some of the houses.
Raising the issue at the recent municipal council meeting, ward councillor Ponmozhi said that sewage overflow from the mains had become a perennial problem in the ward.
More than half of the sewage pipelines were clogged and had not been desilted properly.
Replacing the existing pipelines with bigger ones alone would help to find a lasting solution to the problem, she said.
Meanwhile, enquiries revealed that existing sewage network was created in 1978 and pipelines laid to a length of 78 km, covering the old town area, with two pumping stations and a 9-million-litre capacity sewage treatment plant at Nathapettai.
In 2005, underground network extension project was taken up to cover extended areas of the town. It was decided to lay underground sewage pipelines to a length of 47.75 km, with two new pumping stations. It was also decided to enhance the treatment capacity of Nathapettai plant from 9 million litres to 14.71 million litres and the project was being implemented, sources said.

Potential first boat purchase

Thanks: 0
Thanked 3 Times in 3 Posts
Rep Power:
I'll take a bit of a contrarian view here. What I would do is go and buy a boat in the 30-32' range that is stable and accomodating for the family and will be MORE stable than the smaller boats AND easier to handle...(I know that sounds strange but the bigger the boat the EASIER it is to handle since the added weight makes it handle bigger seas and heavier winds without stress). The only thing that is MORE difficult about handling a bigger boat is coming into the dock UNDER POWER and that just takes practice.
Next I would HIRE a captain to go out with you a few times until you feel comfortable with the boat. This is better than learning on a small boat and then having to re-learn on a larger boat.
You can easily get a NICE Catalina 30 for about $20K which is way under your budget and another grand for a captain to teach you how to sail YOUR boat and work all the systems is a great investment. When you're through, you'll have a nice boat for local cruising with the family with a real head and galley and even air conditioning and a dockside electric system so you can spend weekends aboard in comfort.
Of course...fit out the boat for single-handing and get an auto-pilot etc. ...but don't be afraid of starting on a larger boat.

Not surprisingly, the answers were all over the map, from brown-nosers singing their managers' praises -- and wanting me to mention their "Best Boss Ever!" by name -- to people who'd been burned by a specific male or female manager and had written off working for the entire gender for all of eternity.
There were also the usual charges -- from women and men alike -- of female bosses being hormonal, wishy-washy, manipulative, vindictive, passive-aggressive, micromanaging psychotics.
And while it didn't surprise me that a number of women and men sang the praises of the "communicative," "super-supportive" female bosses they'd had (or their "direct," "drama-free" male bosses), I wasn't expecting to hear so many men lament that their male managers were overly arrogant and territorial.
"The guys I've worked for worked hard each day to prove that they were the leader of the pack," said Eddie Brown Jr., a communications director in New Orleans. "They also spent a significant amount of time bullying others or throwing their weight around."
Craig Huffstetler, an online marketing professional in Medford, Mass., said, "Male bosses feel distant, remote and seem to have an 'alpha male' issue and be very competitive, as if we were playing basketball on separate teams. Woman bosses have more compassion and understanding."
In addition to female managers knowing how to put the T and A in "team," there's mounting evidence that the more women occupy top management roles, the better it is for the women who report to them.
A 2007 study based on data from the 2000 Census and published in the American Sociological Review found that when a company employs more high-profile female managers, the wage gap between women and men shrinks.
As study co-author Philip Cohen explains it, female managers play an active part in reducing the wage gap.
"This could be directly influencing policies and practices, hiring and firing decisions and promotions," said Cohen, associate professor of sociology and director of graduate studies at the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill, "or it could be indirect, through providing contacts, mentoring, role models and support."
"This undermines the myth of the Sigourney Weaver character from 'Working Girl,'" he added.
Case in point: Brenda Christensen of Thousand Oaks, Calif., who's held executive positions in two different software companies and hasn't had many women working above her. Rather than slam the door shut behind her, she's gone out of her way to help other women get a leg up on the corporate ladder.
"I received a resume from a young lady," Christensen said, "and she was shocked when I called her and told her that although I had no positions available at the time, I would be happy to refer her to some of my contacts. She told me no other woman had assisted her as much as I had."
None of this is to say that one sex is better equipped to play boss than another. As far as I'm concerned, the only thing that makes someone a good boss is knowing how to motivate and manage others (although knowing how to order your own latte is a big help, too).
"My best boss was a female. My worst boss was a female," said Sydnye White, a television producer in Upper Marlboro, Md. "I don't know that being a female had anything to do with it."
This work is the opinion of the columnist and in no way reflects the opinion of ABC News.

Anyways I'm excited to see what gets shown, had lots of fun with my 360.
My prediction- theres supposedly different controllers one thats been said to be rather flat and small, The always online will be for their cable/TVstreaming station that Microsoft bought and xboxmini. O and backwards compatibility with the 360.

EDIT: Oh whoops you said Grand Theft Auto 5. I don't think they've announced it for next gen consoles yet, but there's a decent chance that they will.
All I care about seeing from the XBox reveal is the new games, and their policy for used games.
May 21st, 2013 #183
Reveal is online at http://www.xbox.com/en-us/hub/reveal.
Best sentence so far:
"Xbox One, go Home"! :'D
May 21st, 2013 #184
Yikes. That was awful. I like the look of the controller and hardware though.
May 21st, 2013 #185
Is it already over?
I quit the stream because it was lagging every minute :/
Even though, what I saw made me confident about my new graphics card buy for my pc, lol. Money was good invested after seeing this conference.
May 21st, 2013 #186
I did'nt watch it because i was out all day but was the conference that bad? did MS announce any new games or ip's.
edit: Okay looked up the info seems good albiet looks very pricey, also worried about the kinect and voice controls they're probbly able to be turned off but even so I can see alot of problems happening with them.
but while the console looks good only having one exclusive is pretty laughable.

Funny the source i read from did'nt mention any of that but okay that sounds awful.
And while they say they're intentionally making it underpowered the kinect and voice controls being packaged in sounds like it'd boost the price considerably for features no one cares about.
May 21st, 2013 #189
It's basically going to be for guys who want to watch ESPN and then play CoD.
May 21st, 2013 #190
Sounds it, I don't want to make judgements to soon but i'm thinking this may be a war between ninty and sony after all.
Microsft seems to mostly be doing they're own thing, seems more like an all in one media centre then a games console.
Most of these features can be used on a cheap pc or laptop and i'm fairly sure not many people are gonna buy this for kinect and voice controls.
May 21st, 2013 #191
I think the Tivo on steroids approach seems like an attempt to save cable. It could bring in new gamers. Which is smart. I still don't want anything to do with the Kinect. Not just waving my hands in the air like I just don't care, but I can see talking trash with my friends about a show and it changes the channel to whatever it is I'm trash talking. The whole thing is intrusive, annoying and counter productive.
I'm looking forward to hearing about the new IPs but they didn't show anything too impressive.
COD looks modestly better than normal. But mostly more of the same. The frostbite 3 engine does more for the big picture. I'm impressed by the writers resume though. Maybe it'll be better than it looks.
The biggest disappointment was the Remedy soap opera. Didn't they get the memo FMV sucks. And the production value in their show is sub par to today's standards.
The worst news is you can't just play 2nd hand games. So they decided that I'm getting a PS4. Heres an article on the confusing issue.
May 21st, 2013 #192
The fee for activating a used game is the full price of the game.
All games must be authorized with an internet connection before they can be played.
Both confirmed by Phil Harrison. Holy shit. Worst case scenario come true.
May 21st, 2013 #193
May 21st, 2013 #194
Also you must be online at least once a day. Absolutely absurd.

I also read that if you want to have the game on several different accounts on your own console you have to REBUY THE GAME FOR EACH ACCOUNT.
Qoute "Any additional accounts using the same disc would have to pay a fee."
...just wow
Remedy makes great games i'm pretty sure ms wanted them to do this because of the popularity of they're alan wake live action trailers so i'm sure despite the weird fmv's the game will be good maybe even great, but remedy makes niche games this isnt gonna be a systme seller.
*sigh* too bad remedy's talent is wasted on fucking microsoft.

My point of view is pretty simple.
They have all of these new restrictions and things that may or may not affect users to some degree, but where is all of the benefits that justify them?
For me, it's all about the games. Whichever system (even if it's both) has great games, I will want to own. But I'm also moving into a point in my life where I don't need EVERY CONSOLE. So I will decide the system that has the least amount of resistance and/or the best features.
These things they announced yesterday don't come off as great features that I will benefit from, so I don't see a reason to put up with the BS.
My choice is easy.
May 22nd, 2013 #201
I'm at the point where even if MS shows lots of great games at E3, it still might not be enough for me to support their anti-consumer policies. I already know based on the last 3 generations that Sony will have a great library on PS4. I've never had enough time to play all the games I want from a single console anyways, so even if MS were to have slightly more games it might not make any difference (however I doubt this will be the case since they never have had the best library, and now seem less focused on it than ever).
Also: Digital Foundry estimates PS4 is 33-50% more powerful than XBO. http://www.eurogamer.net/articles/di...lysis-xbox-one
Which would be okay for XBO if that lowered the price a lot, but I'm worried the very advanced Kinect will keep it too close to PS4. I'm also worried that 3rd party games will all be brought down because they have to work on XBO. What could possibly happen is that PS4 will get higher frame rate versions of multiplatform games.

As much as I dislike the xb1 it is dreamcast proof. The sports fanboys will pick this up no matter what. Not just gamers. I think even news junkies, day traders and gossip buffs will adopt it sooner or later once content is provided for it. If it didn't play games I would want it. Imagine watching a movie and have the ability to open the storyboard for it or what that song is. Blending internet with cable is a no brainer. Microsoft knows what they're doing. They know they're giving up the savy base consumers in exchange for dudes that just play 2 or 3 multiplayer games a year.
XB1 is going to get the online multiplayer audience and ps4 is going to get the single player crowd. PS4 has a simple PC architecture, so by nature it'll get more games. XB1 is going to load extra horsepower from the cloud, so it's going to unlimited capabilities eventually.
I wonder if gamestop is going to carry the xb1. The console really seals their fate. The disks are kind of pointless.

Soo not a totally great reveal, I get why some/a few/a lot/ quite a bit of people are put off, I'm gonna hold off on a complete judgment of the X1 till after E3 since it hasn't really seemed to answer any questions. Looks like the wiiU and the X1 have their work cut out for them the next few years.
Can't say I've jumped ship yet though, I've had too much fun with my xbox with the halos/forzas. Lets see what they have to show at E3 and what gets elaborated on. PS4 looks like a strong console this time around, not too much of a PS fan, but perhaps I'll pick one up eventually.
Still betting that M-soft unveils an even smaller console at E3. for just the cloud services.

From an objective point of view I think xbone's short game is going to fail, but the long game strategy is going to pan out. I can see offloading horsepower is going to give it lasting power.
The biggest turn off is is the Kinect can't be turned off. Hand gesture controls are a bad idea and voice controls are a worse idea. Logging on with facial recognition is asking for trouble. I DO NOT WANT TO LIVE WITH HAL 9000. The Kinect puts the K in Phillip K Dick. You couldn't pay me to use it.

Cloud powered games are not going to be viable for a while. Most people do not have very good internet.

As for kinect I really get a lot of the concerns the always on eyes and ears can be a problem, butt watching some tech demos its rather impressive and I do believe it will push some small innovative features in games. Take biometrics in games for instance. How cool could it be to have the video game soundtrack tied to your heart beat? sports games, racing, action, shootersit gets to a point where its just slightly silly because you know right when the music starts the whatnots going down. That and the horror genre has been garbage lately (yes,no I wouldn't really know) I can easily think of prolly 50+ ways the kinect could be utilized to a more immersive experience. .
Anyways Kinect doesn't bother me toooo much, used games, the online requirement I think those are the 2 bigger deals for people and it really sounds like Microsoft doesn't even have that figured out yet. I continue to see stories of conflicting information coming out from the M$ so more time will tell? Ill be excited to see the E3 though I really believe that if they are serious in keeping some of these policies they have a few aces up their sleeves.

The XB1 announcement boosted wii u sales 875%.
If you think about it like a chess game, the xb1 is an expendable piece to get them in a better position next round. A catalyst to build a powerful service. Once they build up a decent service they'll take over. Imagine hooking up a cheap PC to your TV that can run ANYTHING. You could be running photoshop, flash, maya and zbrush on your xbox live account. That's why getting a head start building a cloud service is so smart. Even if they get some egg in their face. They'll wipe it off and move forward.
DEMO-Nobody can say the kinect isn't innovative, but so was the clapper, that doesn't make it more useful than annoying.

If I don't know any better, I'd think that someone is sabotaging Microsoft from the inside with just how much of a trainwreck their Xbox One has been so far.

MS officially posted their policies. Important stuff:
24 hour check-in required. If you bring a game to play at your friend's house, 1 hour check-in is required.
You may give a game to someone who has been on your friends list 30 days. You transfer your rights to them. After this transfer, the game may not be transferred again.
Games can only be traded in at participating retailers, and publishers can choose to not participate. This basically means used games on Amazon, ebay and smaller pawn shops will no longer be available.
No renting. No loaning (unless you are present with the game). No private sales.
Family members can play the same game without extra fees, even if there are multiple XBoxes in the same house. This policy is not yet clear but I'm guessing you need to be on the same IP.
