For these bugs, walking on water is easy
A "meniscus"–the crescent-shaped and barely visible slope literally at water's edge–can mean life or death to an insect the size of a speck of dust. Water bugs that tiny must summon the energy to "surf" themselves up the problematic interface between liquid and solid in ponds and other wet places to escape predators or reproduce.
Menisci are all around us, "but we don't notice them because they're so small, only a few millimeters in height," said mathematician David Hu of the Massachusetts Institute of Technology. "But if you're a creature that's much smaller than that, those slopes "are like frictionless mountains," said Hu. "Plus, it's slippery."
Now, Hu and coworker John Bush have done the math to explain how nearly weightless water walkers find the traction to ascend a wall of water several times their height. Such obstacles, which are almost invisible to humans, may surround a leaf floating in a stream or a stone on the riverbank.
An article on the work appears in the Sept. 29 issue of the journal Nature.
According to Bush, the study, which was funded by the National Science Foundation, may be "of interest to people working in nanotechnology,

Todd Kessler, "The Voice" Contestant Talks "The New Folk"
in Music
Todd Kessler, Season 3 "The Voice" contestant joins Mary E.. Kessler is the front man for The New Folk, a band out of Chicago. They are getting ready to appear on the Bud Light stage at the annual "The Taste of Chicago" July 13th.
The New Folk celebrated the release of their debut album, Sea Fever, with an August 2012 "Practice Space Presents" residency at Schuba's Tavern, but the story behind The New Folk began in 2005 as singer/songwriter Todd Kessler went in to the studio to record his debut album. That album, entitled We Are The MusicMakers, was released in 2006 and with the backing of his original band helped Kessler to make his name in the local Chicago music scene. In 2007 and 2008, in the midst of touring the Midwest, Kessler teamed up with Producer Greg Magers to record his next two albums, the Veronika EP and Boomerang, only garnering him more praise and recognition on the road and at home. It was while recording Veronika that The New Folk began to take root with the addition of Bob Parlier on drums, Sam Smiley on guitar and Graham Burris on bass. The quartet began playing out in 2008 in support of Boomerang, still under the name of Todd Kessler, but it was during the next two years and the addition of a string section (Elana Hiller and Chris Bauler), a horn section (David Ben-Porat and Ben Bell Bern) and a second vocalist (Molly Parlier) that the band began to make waves with their signature alternative folk/pop sound. 2009's double-single release "Golden Bird," along with headlining shows at Schuba's, Lincoln Hall, Double Door and Millennium Park, solidified the band's place as a respected group in Chicago, and in 2010, the band began playing shows under the name Todd Kessler and the New Folk.

Which Crysis config do you prefer?
I'm going to play around with Crysis again in anticipation of Crysis Warhead next week. However I haven't played around with Crysis configs in 10 months now and I can imagine that other people have been perfecting formulas and making progress the past year.
I've been around a bit and as far as I can see the two biggest are the CCC Config and Mster Config (currently at version 2.21 and 3.1 respectively).
So cast your vote: CCC, Mster or other :)
Re: Which Crysis config do you prefer?
other... i prefer my own tweaked very high config...
Re: Which Crysis config do you prefer?
Two different shadow settings.
Extras: UltimaRage ToD, Assassins's AI tweak, Doomlord's AI tweak.
What do you pick? I'm thinking about going lvl5, realistic shadows, +ToD, no AI tweaks.
Re: Which Crysis config do you prefer?
I haven't tried the CCC one but I thought the Master config actually made the game look worse. What I mostly prefer is just the standard DX10 very high settings but, now with the new monitor I'm going to have to save some of my spending cash for about 2 months so I can go Tri-SLI and enjoy the 1920x1200 goodness.
Re: Which Crysis config do you prefer?
I'm installing the CCC right now on my laptop, DX9 Lvl 5. I have it installed on my main rig right now too. Dx10, Lvl 6 CCC is where its at for people who don't want to make their own config.
Re: Which Crysis config do you prefer?
Other - Natural Mod :o
Re: Which Crysis config do you prefer?
I used to use Mster config, but now I use CCC @ lvl 5, it looks great imo.
Re: Which Crysis config do you prefer?
hp's is good, ccc is ok but mster's offers the best looks and performance by leaps and bounds.
Re: Which Crysis config do you prefer?
In general, is there any problem in installing and then uninstalling any of the configs if you would want to try the out one by one? I see that some of them also overwrite some level files, that's why I'm wondering..
Re: Which Crysis config do you prefer?
Sure, mster cuts back details on the little things that you don't really notice unless you start playing screenshot jockey and start nitpicking.
In all reality, I think the Mster config is the best because it gives a good FPS increase (I'm rocking 40 FPS benchmarks) and I don't visually say to myself during playing that it looks any worse than the high end visual configs. And I think we can all agree that that's the name of the game.
All other configs only give me 30fps at most during GPU benchmarks and after loading any of them then to EITHER mster config (as both performance and visual config files yield much higher FPS) I honestly see no negative impact on the visuals.
I've stared at the graphical details in crysis more hours than I can count and though I can see little things here and there once I stop to scrutinize the surroundings, during game play, between the high end graphical configs and either mster config, the only difference I notice is the extra 10 fps when using the mster config.
When you stop judging these mods from the pics and just load em up and play, that's when you'll come to a much more meaningful conclusion on which you like better.
one thing I do think everyone should get down on is the Rygel texture mod. It'll make any graphic config better.
Re: Which Crysis config do you prefer?
Ok I guess I'll have to try them both out then..
Ah this one? Haven't seen that anywhere else!
Does it conflict with any mod in any way?
Re: Which Crysis config do you prefer?
I need to play though Crysis again with either CCC or mster + rygel textures.
In CCC installation is there any good explanation what all those settings do?

World's uneven economic recovery tops Davos debate
DAVOS, Switzerland The risks of an uneven global economic recovery - powered by a booming China and held back by unemployment in the U.S. and other wealthy nations - dominated the agenda Wednesday as the World Economic Forum opened in the Swiss Alps.
The five-day gathering of movers and shakers was assessing a host of issues facing the planet, from disaster aid in the aftermath of Haiti's devastating earthquake to reforms aimed at preventing another financial markets collapse.
But the most pressing concern was steadying a shaky world economy that is likely to face tough challenges in 2010 as rich world unemployment remains high and governments are forced to pull back from lavish bailouts and stimulus packages that have propped up banks and other industries.
"China alone cannot be the only engine of global economic growth," warned economist Nouriel Roubini, who gained prominence as a soothsayer of the current economic crisis. "In the first half, you are going to see the effects of the fiscal stimulus ... in the second half of the year you will see a fall in the U.S., Europe and Japan."
Some 2,500 participants - from presidents and CEOs to philosophers and artists - will debate economic recovery, job creation and the way forward in this picturesque Swiss resort, celebrating its 40th birthday as host of the world's pre-eminent forum for economic and political brainstorming.
French President Nicolas Sarkozy will formally open the event later Wednesday, with other headliners including Presidents Luiz Inacio Lula da Silva of Brazil and Jacob Zuma of South Africa. Former U.S. President Bill Clinton will encourage big business to support Haiti's reconstruction, while "Avatar" director James Cameron and classical pianist Lang Lang are the event's top cultural representatives.
While in the past Davos has often been a key site for diplomacy, the focus of this year's meeting was clearly the economy and how to rebound from record unemployment.
The U.N. labor agency said 27 million people lost their jobs last year, with almost half of the losses in North America, Japan and Western Europe. The agency predicted an additional 3 million people in the rich world could lose their jobs or fail to find employment in 2010.
Dennis Nally, global chairman of PriceWaterhouseCoopers, said he was "cautiously optimistic" about growth this year. But, he warned that a number of problems remained, not least the stubbornly high unemployment in the United States and other industrialized economies.
"It's not a robust recovery from a job creation standpoint," he said.
Roubini, once dubbed "Dr. Doom" for his grim economic assessments, saw some scope for optimism despite crunched credit markets and constrained banks.
"Obama's proposals on banking regulation are finally going in the right direction ... but they are not enough," he said Wednesday. "We should separate commercial banking from investment banking."
Roubini also warned against a return to the "business as usual" approach that created the crisis, but the chief executive of Britain's Standard Chartered Bank said his industry has been "fundamentally changed" by tighter regulations and supervision.

Arla Skyr "the messenger" by Wieden & Kennedy London
Agency: Wieden & Kennedy London
Rating: 5.0
By Matthew Chapman, campaignlive.co.uk, Tuesday, 15 May 2012 10:50AM
The press activity is headlined 'E.ON guarantees not to increase home energy prices in 2012' and continues the brand's animated style it uses in television advertising.
British Gas owner Centrica put out a statement on Friday (11 May) warning that wholesale costs will be around 15% higher this winter, which could result in a further £50 added to household bills.
Creative by DLKW Lowe states that E.ON has promised to "protect its home energy customers by not raising their prices in 2012" despite the overall trend of wholesale energy price rises.
MediaCom is handling the planning and buying for the tactical press campaign.
The campaign launched today and comes the day after E.ON promised not to raise residential prices in 2012 for its five million existing domestic customers in an attempt to be "fair and transparent".
Tony Cocker, chief executive of E.ON, said: "I want every family in the UK to know that we will always do our best to be fair and act in the best interests of our customers."
E.ON ran an ad campaign in October that sought to build trust, knowledge and engagement among customers as part of its Energy Fit Plan, which offers customers two months' free energy.
The current press campaign is driving home the message of fairness by saying it "always wants to be fair and clear" before citing a disclaimer.
Its disclaimer states "only customers on a fixed term deal that ends this year, or who are using more energy than last year, may see an increase".

"Hey Kevin! I know you were at TechEd US 2008 IT Pro last week. Where are your blog entries about it?"
Well.. yeah.. It's a really busy week! Those of you who have followed my blog for the past couple of years know that I like to keep a diary of sorts about my daily activities at TechEd. But this year I had to scale back, due to my commitment to the TechEd Online team to do video interviews and podcasts for their site. (You may see some of my interviews up there already. More will be posted in the coming weeks. I'll link to them in upcoming blog posts for those who are interested.)
The good news, however, is that I did take my video camera along for capturing a few video tidbits that I'm compiling into my usual Video Diaries; just like I did at my HHH Launch events. Video does take some time to edit and render, however, so I wasn't able to post these every night after the day's activities as I would have liked. But I do have at least 4 video diary entries in the works. You'll see them over the next several days.
So.. without further delay; here is video diary number 1:
Dear Video Diary,
Travel day! The opening title screen background on the video is of the departing flight status board at MSP. Flight was a little late getting out of the gate, and we had to circle Orlando for about 30 minutes to allow a storm to pass on through. I'm glad my teammate/friend/roommate John Baker was patient and waited for me.
"I thought you were the one who had the rental car, Kevin."
Yeah.. he didn't have much of a choice, did he.
Anyway.. we got to the hotel, went on a quick shopping trip to a nearby grocery, and then went to the convention center with more of our team to get registered.
The bulk of the video is a kind of "unpackaging" video of the TechEd 2008 bag and its contents. It's probably one of the nicest bags we've gotten at any TechEd; though mine is already starting to rip towards the top of the right shoulder strap.
Here's the video. I hope you like it.
(Don't forget to double-click to see in all its HD glory)
"Kevin... What is that music you're using in your video?"
Like it? It's my brother Carl! Actually.. the music over the title sequence is the band he's in (Bat Makumba) and a portion of a song entitled "Quiero" off of their 2003 CD. And the music during the fast-motion scan of bag contents is from Carl's solo album "Explanation Point". The song is "At the Club". Carl is an amazing Bass player, and is also a gifted record producer.

Bolts Acquire Downie and EmingerSubmitted by timothy on November 7, 2008 - 20:35
The Tampa Bay Lightning have acquired defenseman Steve Eminger, right wing Steve Downie and a fourth-round pick in the 2009 NHL Entry Draft from the Philadelphia Flyers in exchange for defenseman Matt Carle and San Jose's third-round pick in 2009 (previously acquired) today, Executive Vice President and General Manager Brian Lawton announced.
Downie, a 5-foot-10, 192-pound native of Newmarket, Ontario, has played in six games with the Flyers this year, recording 11 penalty minutes. He has played in 38 career NHL games, all with Philadelphia, recording six goals and 12 points. He also has one career shorthanded goal and one game-winning goal. The 21-year-old played in 190 career junior games with Windsor, Peterborough and Kitchener. He amassed 82 career goals and 234 points. He also appeared in 43 OHL playoff games, recording 18 goals and 53 points. Downie was originally drafted by Philadelphia in the first round, 29th overall, in the 2005 NHL Entry Draft.

Lethbridge Deals Fadden to Tri-CitySubmitted by chad on November 5, 2008 - 19:17
(WHL Release) Lethbridge Hurricanes General Manager, Roy Stasiuk and Tri City Americans General Manager, Robert Tory jointly announced a major trade today which sees high scoring forward and Lightning prospect, Mitch Fadden and defensemen, Cam Stevens and Brock Sutherland moving south in exchange for defenseman, Eric Mestery and forward Drew Hoff.
The two GM's made a huge splash two years ago when high scoring forward (and former Traverse City Lightning member), Colton Yellow Horn was moved to the Americans in exchange for a first round draft pick. Yellow Horn went on to become one of the more prolific scorers in the WHL and the Hurricanes' secured scoring prospect, Mark Reners in the 2007 WHL Bantam Draft.
"Mitch Fadden is an incredibly gifted, talented and exciting player, however, our biggest need right now is a solid top four defenseman and Eric Mestery fits that bill." said Stasiuk, the Canes' GM added, "With Luca Sbisa remaining with the Philadelphia Flyers, we had to use some of our offensive depth in order to address a more pressing need. Cam and Brock will both have more opportunity to develop in supporting roles with the Americans and Drew Hoff is expected to inject some energy into our forward groupings."
Jung Traded ... AgainSubmitted by chad on October 22, 2008 - 13:17
The goalie no one in the WHL wanted now suddenly is in high demand.
For the second time in a week, Lightning prospect Torrie Jung was traded. This time, Lethbridge dealt the netminder to the Edmonton Oil Kings, who were unhappy with the inconsistency of veteran goaltender Dalyn Flette and need healthy options in net.
Lightning Claim Pettinger; Lose KociSubmitted by timothy on October 21, 2008 - 13:35
It was a busy morning on Channelside today as the Tampa Bay Lightning claimed veteran forward Matt Pettinger off of recall waivers from the Vancouver Canucks. Pettinger, who was acquired by the Canucks at the trade deadline last February from the Washington Capitals in exchange for Matt Cooke, failed to make the Vancouver roster out of camp and was assigned to the AHL Manitoba Moose. Pettinger had 3 goals for Manitoba in 2 games, and has 56 goals, 105 points in 354 NHL games with the Capitals and Canucks. The Canucks are on the hook for half of his $1.1M contract, and he is expected to join the Lightning instead of being reassigned to Norfolk.
The Lightning also placed reserve forward Jason Ward on waivers today, presumably ahead of a possible signing and activation of veteran defenseman Marek Malik.
It was also announced by the NHL that enforcer David Koci was claimed off waivers by the St. Louis Blues. Koci was waived on Monday ahead of an anticipated activation of foward Ryan Craig off of IR. Tampa will have the first option to reclaim Koci from the Blues if he cannot maintain a roster spot with St. Louis, and would be free to be reassigned to Norfolk by the Lightning.
Jung Joins Fadden in LethbridgeSubmitted by chad on October 17, 2008 - 07:56
The Kelowna Rockets have announced they have officially traded goaltender Torrie Jung to the Lethbridge Hurricanes for a sixth round Bantam draft pick in 2010.
Jung joins fellow Lightning prospect Mitch Fadden in Lethbridge. He had been staying at his Nanaimo, B.C. home waiting for a trade. Jung was expected to be Kelowna's No.1 goaltender this year, but a pre-season trade for a more experienced No.1 changed things for the former seventh round pick.

Foreman finally at peace with loss to Ali
"Thirty-five years ago I walked off that canvas thinking I was dead," Foreman said. "Turns out I hadn't even begun to live."
Ali had said he was going to retire after the fight, and Kilroy pleaded with him to do it. But he liked the idea of being heavyweight champion once again, and soon there was an offer of another $5 million to defend against Joe Bugner in what would be little more than a glorified sparring session.
Ali is muted now, his once magnificent voice not heard publicly in years. He lives mostly in Arizona with his wife, Lonnie, and, though Parkinson's Syndrome has taken a terrible toll on him, still travels frequently.
Foreman and Ali became friends over the years and until recently would talk on the phone. If there's a rumor about Ali's health, one of his daughters will call Foreman to reassure him that things are fine.
He hasn't seen him in a few years, but thinks it could be time.
"He's always coming to you, but he's not getting around well these days," Foreman said. "I guess I will have to go to him. This will probably push me out the door to find him."
Foreman knows that he will always be defined by what happened in that faraway ring, but that's OK now, too. He understands that maybe he was just a part of something with Ali that was much bigger than either of them could understand at the time.
Yes, he lost to Ali in the ring, but in the end he may have gained even more.
"I don't call him the best boxer of all time," Foreman said, "but he's the greatest human being I ever met."

Two up - Going down +1: South America Bound
Like most of us here at ADV Rider, I have ridden through a fair amount of North America, but I have always wanted to travel far and wide on my motorcycle. It seemed as though I was doomed to ride only as far as my three-week vacations would allow.
When my friend Dan mentioned that he and his brother-in-law were planning a trip to South America, I was envious. Man, I really wanted to go with them.
Dan works at a sawmill, and has saved enough time to take ten consecutive weeks off. Not really enough time for a leisurely one-way ride to Tierra del Fuego, but it is better than nothing.
As it turns out, Dan's brother-in-law is not able to get the time off. That is the rewards of being in management, I guess. It sucks for sure.
As for me, after 16 years with a natural gas utility company, I was bumped up to 5 weeks holidays per year. I wondered if I would be able to take two sets of holidays back to back, or maybe even get a leave of absence. I figured it couldn't hurt to submit a formal request and see what the response would be.
A month later, I found out: "Ten weeks of holidays (07-08) have been granted as long as you remain in your current position during that time." No problem!!!
Now the only other real hurdle was my wife. Well, maybe "hurdle" isn't the right word. Let me say the only other concern was my wife. I knew that Conchita would have no problem letting me go on my own, but I just didn't think that was a fair thing to do. She loves to travel as much as I do, and the facts that we would be going to Latin countries, her ablility to speak the language, and her growing up in the Caribbean (Curacao) meant that the only choice we had was to do the trip together - two up on a 2006 GS 1200 ADV!!!
Conchita was not as fortunate as I was in the holiday department. She is a teacher and taking the months of October, November and part of December off just did not fall into that schedule. So she did the next best thing - quit!!! She doesn't seem too upset about it either - imagine that!!!!
C and I get along great, and I think it is fantastic to do a trip like this with my partner. Of course that has brought up some gear, space and weight (the gear-not us, well maybe a little "us") issues, but so far I think we have it figured out. Our 10-day trip to Silverton, Colorado, for a Horizons Unlimited meeting was a good test run. Turns out Conchita's riding gear was way too hot, and we need to find her some good mesh stuff.
So, the big day is Sept 28th, 07. We will be leaving our place in northern Alberta, and heading down to Waterton/Glacier National Parks. Then we will ride highway 93 south into Las Vegas, where we will be getting a new set of Tourance tires put on the bike (BMW of Las Vegas possibly??). Dan on his KTM 950 will be leaving a few days after us, and we will hook up with him in Tombstone, Arizona, on Oct 5th.
After that, the only plan we have is to hit the Copper Canyon in Mexico, and then head south - hopefully updating our blog and this thread at least once a week. We had hoped to visit "the Striking Viking" on our way through Mazatlan, but it sounds like he may not be around at that time. Too bad, I was looking forward to meeting him. Maybe his schedule will change by then?
I am curious to see how the two bikes compare to each other as far as maintenance, etc. It may be a bit of an unfair comparison, as the GS will be carrying more weight.
As far as planning goes:
We are bringing a spare key antenna (the bolts have already been drilled out for a roadside repair if required), alternator belt, bulbs (headlight, brake light and signal lights), brake pads, and I am seriously considering having a spare ceramic clutch with me as well. I will Not be bringing a final drive (watch that be the thing that craps out on us)!!
Sockets and ratchet drive to remove both front and rear wheels. Torx sockets for all bolts. Tire repair kit with cycle pump and pressure gauge.
Tire irons. Pliers, vice grips, spark plug tool with cap puller. Emergency head repair kit (condom type looking thing). Mechanics wire, duct tape, electrical tape, zip ties and jumper cables, etc.
This Coors Light cooler bag seems to work perfectly as a spare parts and tool kit, not to mention the obvious use. It will fit right into the bottom of the case and has a bit of padding. Might work.
(I cannot figure out how to embed the link in the photo - seems flickr and ADV are not good friends. Believe me, I tried!!).
Tent: el cheapo, a bit iffy in the wind, but we got lots of binder twine!!
sleeping bags, sleeping pads: we decided to take only the down-filled (grey) bags. They are plenty warm and pack fairly small.
towels: super absorbant and almost dry when wrung out. Well, I don't plan on showering too much really anyway.....:huh
Powerlet heated liners
First Aid kit and all sorts of pills.
Drugs: Lots-O-drugs!!
Yellow Fever (done)
Typhoid Fever (done)
Hepatitis A/B (done)
Tetanus (done)
Rabies (2 out of three so far):
Rabies vaccine was $625 for each of us. Interestingly enough, it is exactly the same shot you would get for free if you happen to be bitten by a dog!! Had I known a little earlier..........??? Hey, there is still time to convince Conchita!!
Malaria pills galore!!
(1/day x2 and 4 weeks after returing home-150 pills. If the Malaria doesn't kill you, the drugs will!!!!)
Pills to prevent altitude sickness.
(La Paz in Bolivia is over 12,000 ft)
Pills to deal with altitude sickness if you do get it.
Pills to stop diarrhea.
Allergy Pills.
Foot powder(stinky feet is bad).
Photocopied drivers licence for the "nice" police people.:wink:
Let's hope it all posts....seems these photos are not grooving the whole process. It worked in the preview finally .....I am crossing my fingers.
Lucky guy to have such a supportive wife, quitting her job to go on this adventure of a lifetime!! :thumb
Best wishes for a great and safe journey.. :pope
If you plan on camping along the way, I wouldn't go with the cheapo tent... get something good...
Keep us posted if you can
:lurk :lurk
Not 100% sure about tenting ALL the way. Many have said that the lack of campsites and the fact that hotels are so cheap (with secure parking) are great reasons NOT to camp. May end up shipping the camping gear home at some point.
On the other hand, 300 bucks for a good tent in the scheme of things isn't THAT much. It would be smaller and lighter too, I suppose.
You might be better off leaving all the camping gear home, and plan to hotel it.. from what I've heard there isn't much in the way of secure camp site and with all your gear on the bike, you want it parked in a secure location, such as what a small hotel could offer. Check out the horizonsunlimited.com site for regional specifics.
I wonder...
The bike:
I am sure you all know what a GS looks like...if not, here it is!!
Notice I have a new set of Anakees. Well, they aren't new anymore!! I have about 7000km on them, and it looks like the back only has about 3000 more. I am hoping I make it to Vegas with these. I think they are fantastic tires!! Better than the TKC's in all aspects, except all out mud or soft sand. I just need a little more life for this trip.
Installed some Rox Risers. They are great!! Way more comfortable for me. If finding a tank bag that fits was a problem before, now it will be real hard.
Touratech Crash Bar Bags. They help get some of the weight up front.
Standard height Sargent seat: approx. 1 1/2 inch lower than stock and way more comfortable. No complaints about the seat from Conchita. The stock passenger seat would have never cut it.
$150 BMW stick-on backrest. I don't recommend it at all. It's cheeeezy!! Conchita doesn't find it all that bad. It's not like she is putting all her weight on it.
Rad protection and headlight cover.
Garmin Etrex legend. It's nothing fancy, but it sure does the trick!!
My wife - Conchita
I should introduce you guys to my riding partner...
Guys....this is Conchita
Conchita....this is the guys (and girls, I suppose).
Conchita will be the unofficial camera person for the trip. Any bad photos can be blamed on her!!!:lol3
Just arrived in Mazatlan. Local tel: 044 6691587195 Don't leave messages--system is down. email is better: firstname.lastname@example.com
Take Glen up on his generous offer, give him a call, he's the guru of south American travel, and he's been around the world on his bike. Check out his thread Striking Viking Bumming the World on this forum, if you haven't seen it already.
Whatever Glen tells you, accept it as gospel and follow his advice. Read his book too: Two Wheels Through Terror. It has a lot of tips about travel through the areas you're going through.
Also, the title of your thread doesn't really reflect the greatness of this adventure.. if you'd like me to change it to something more eye catching, let me know.
Does your wife speak Spanish? That would come in handy.
Hi Conchita!! You lucky gal!! Take lots of pics!!
Ecuador Colombia Peru
You pm,ed me a while back mate,glad to see you,re getting underway.I,ll be keeping an eye on your thread,so just give me a shout about anything you might need.your friendly local bar owner The Turtles Head:freaky
This is going to be great to follow!
Wish you two a great time!
Im hooked. You too have a safe and memorable journey.
Speaking of Dan, here he is (far left) ....two years ago with Dave, his brother-in-law that unfortunately cannot make this trip. There is Conchita with my old FJR before we got smart and bought the GS.
Conchita is Portuguese, but speaks fluent Spanish. Actually, she is in Portugal right now on the beautiful island of Madeira visiting her parents. She will be reading this thread from there.
Great biking roads in Madeira!!
That's a nice setup you got there.

As seems to happen every few years, there's another report out from a federal agency urging the U.S. to withdraw $1 bills from circulation and replace them with coins. The arguments are always the same: Coins last longer! We'd save a bunch of money! Everyone else is doing it!
Switching to dollar coins is a dumb idea, and I'm glad to see that a member of Congress has finally, succinctly explained why. The AP reports:"Rep. Lacy Clay, D-Mo., said men don't like carrying a bunch of coins around in their pocket or in their suits."

From the article: Overcoming Resistance to Content Management
Did your company try to install a CMS and fail or have many problems? I worked at one company where it took us three tries before we could get a CMS installed on our website. Many of the problems were technical, but many were also personnel related. What problems did your company experience when installing a CMS?
I don't recommend using CMS's
- I use ModX exclusively when a customer wants a CMS. I know html,css,php and such. I don't recommend actually using them at all. Most are bloated and slow. Learning html css and some php would be about a hundred times better for everyone involved.
- —Guest Matt M
Nothing to it.
- I do a buisiness where all sites I create using Joomla exclusively. Church Sites that allow the owner to change the content are impossible to create from scratch, especially when you require the client to get his own web hosting. Joomla can also be run locally with many open source programs. You can transfer the site you build offline to live servers by intalling it online, and then uploading all files, and importing the sql file. But how else can you allow the client the ability to adjust and add conetent to their website, without you coding it each time yourself. That is expensive for the client, and a church website may want to change their content every week. The learning curve is not on the creation side, but on the client's end. I use instruction videos and large help files to help them accomplish this.
- —Guest johnemurphy
CMS Analysis
- I have been investigating CMS packages for a client that has a 7000+ page static site. When I first started this analysis, I was pretty certain they would need to migrate to a packaged CMS and I was focusing on Wordpress, Joomla!, and Drupal for open-source. I also looked into Sitefinity, Sharepoint, and Autonomy (aka TeamBuilder). After alot of research, I've changed my mind and am recommending this client build their own backend applications to update the content. Though they have alot of pages, only about 20 of them are being updated frequently and the manual CMS process they have now just isn't going to work in the future. BTW, I found a help doc for Joomla! that showed 19 steps to convert a static web page. Wow, multiply that by 7000!
- —Guest Bill
A bit to learn but worth it
- I use Joomla and Drupal for client web sites. I couldn't disagree more with Matt M's comment about not recommending using CMS. I find both performance and features are great (assuming you have a good service provider!) and I spend more time developing what the client wants rather than creating back office functionality or even having to forfeit client requirements. I'm a PHP developer but I've created many CMS sites without having to do any coding but knowing how to code is certainly a good step as it allows you to further customise functionality. Drupal looks very basic out-of-the-box but stick with it and get a theme going, then you find it is a fantastic CMS framework. You will find it is lacking until you install some modules; you _must_ install some modules to get those great features working!
- —Guest Neil
Resistance is futile
- I couldn't resist, but seriously, this is about resistance and everyone is responding with developer take. The biggest resistance is enduser use. If they don't use it for whatever reason it won't work. You can say that is a management problem until the cows come home, and I've heard it before, but in some cases people just don't use it and it dies. And this goes for software developed, or off the shelf or custom, it is upto us as developers to make the end product intuitive, and then we have to sell it as a value to peers, management, and the end user. You must be able to step away from the end product and let it live on it's own as well...if you are in a constant state of development and bug fixing it will either die, or hurt your credibility - even if you know the fault of the problems does not lie with your code.
- —Guest eCylk
CMS Made Simple
- This is a fantastic open source cms-- simple to customize, VERY easy for clients to use, and great forum support. {JK added: Here's the URL: http://www.cmsmadesimple.org/ }
- —Guest wolphgirl
My Custom CMS
- All I can say is Joomla is complicated and takes time to grasp the functionalities. Oh and several of the features are not needed. Thats why I am building my own CMS. And its really going great. Its also more user friendly than Joomla. Its I think 50% complete and I used PHP, JQuery n some other cool stuffs.
- —aminiasitk
- I tried several content management systems as a non-programmer and miserably failed to install most of them. Looking back, I know it was a CHMOD thing and some other small details. However, I did manage to install PHP-Fusion from my first attempt, which made me feel great I'm that stupid I cannot install a web platform. A year after that I started reading the code, trying to understand what's behind, so I can tune it up to my needs. It took me a month to add something new but it was my code. Today, reading other CMS' code I see a huge difference. PHP-Fusion's code is written very nice, being relatively easy to understand even if you don't have a rich programming background. One year later I had my own components written from scratch and now I am even able to create websites based on 5% of PHP-Fusion's capabilities - basically around it's core file and registration system. I can now build my own but it's unnecessary because the PHP-Fusion core is already secure. That's it! :) I'm happy.

a simple DIY CMS solution using PHP
- Many website owners only need access to specific text areas of certain pages. One very easy way to offer this without a formal and involved installation and configuration of a CMS system is: Take the text areas of the pages and cut each out and paste them into a separate .txt file. Where you cut out that text put a PHP statement of include("pages_name_1.txt"); Simple so far. Next just create a change page, only available to those authorized, that has a select field to pick the txt file they want to edit, and a textbox box that will display that text so they can make changes and save it. You can jazz up this editing page with a preview link that will pop up a window with how the page will look if changes are saved. If you need to put the include statements in a non .php page just set .htm and .html pages to be parsed by PHP by adding a line to the .htaccess file that is in the same folder or parent as the web pages. (ADDTYPE application/x-httpd-php .phtml .phtml .php .txt .htm .html)

Joomla vs Drupal vs Wordpress
- I've found the newer versions of Joomla difficult to configure and lacking in good SEO compared to Drupal and WordPress. Wordpress used to be just a blogging CMS, but it is so popular that many free plugins are available that you unzip, upload the folder to the plugin folder and the site changes from a blogging centered site to a regular website. Add a plugin that will display a horizontal menu with drop downs when wanted, and one of the good SEO plugins, and a theme you like (or create your own) and you can quickly create a site that is easy for the company to maintain. Wordpress is also easy to install and some hosting companies will do it for you or have online apps that walk you right through the install.

- You should check out these two. The admin interface is beautiful on both and they are super easy to learn. At the moment they are both targeted towards small to medium sites but they are growing and seem to have decent teams backing the project. Check em out.

Custom or open Source?
- I have previously built custom cms' in php and have recently started experimenting with Wordpress and Joomla, although the easiest cms I have found for simple sites so far is cushycms (www.cushycms.com). This can be embedded into a site using a simple css class. Go to the site, set up some basic details, create editors and set their access. Jobs done. Well worth a look.

Installing CMS
- We installed on our server, no problems at all, currently using version 1.5.9. You can view my Joomla website at www.andibradley.com/trains - I would appreciate any comments. We have a local copy of Joomla too, so I can 'play' before uploading to the live website. Best wishes, Suzanne (Lincoln, England)

Joomla 1.5.7
- I started using Joomla about 2 months ago. I am creating a site for me and my company at the same time. At my work I just doing it offline as they want a complete web site before uploading it. My personal one can be seen here at www.k9huey.com there is really nothing there yet except for a couple of harmless jokes. I had a little trouble installing Joomla at first but most of the problem was me being nervous. I am still a little confused on how to structure the site because there are only three levels and I feel the need for more. I am reading a bunch of forums to help understand this better. I like it so far!
- —Guest k9huey
- I have installed Joomla 1.5.7 for my website at my web hosting site. Then I uploaded a Joomla website template - so far so good. I had no problem. At present I am building the website. I am absolutely new to CMS. So I am taking my time, but I find it very interesting. Joomla help files are really easy to understand. My hosting company is equally helpful, although I only have a free subdomain with them.

Black screen with SGI F180 display
1 Attachment(s)
I installed the Nvidia 1.0.9755 driver on a system with an NVidia Quadro FX 1500 card using an SGI F180 LCD display. When I try to startx I get a black screen with occasional flickering (synchronization problems?). If I use a different LCD, e.g. Samsung 931BF, I can start X. If I then switch screens,
I can see X on the SGI, but if I restart X or reboot using the SGI screen, X hangs again. I can use thsi SGI screen without any problems on another Linux machine which has an Nvidia GeForce 6600 card. I did startx -- -logverbose 6 and then ran nvidia-bug-report.sh via a remote shell (while the SGI acreen was black). I attach the log file.

BJP chief Rajnath Singh today came out in defence of Narendra Modi on the snooping row saying while the Gujarat CM himself has ordered a probe into the matter, a "depressed" Congress is busy leveling baseless allegations.
"Congress leaders are giving wayward statements under depression. Their national president Sonia Gandhi terms BJP as a party of poisonous people and its Vice President (Rahul Gandhi) term it as thieves. This is the result of their depression," he alleged.
Rajnath said Modi himself has constituted a commission to probe into the snooping charges.
On a political debate on Article 370 in Jammu and Kashmir, an issue raised by Modi in his Jammu rally, Rajnath said the principles and ideologies with which BJP started politics still stand firm.
Rajnath said NDA will ensure 33 per cent reservation to women in the Parliament and state Assemblies once it comes to power.
When asked about 'Bharat Ratna' to former Prime Minister Atal Bihari Vajpayee, after it was conferred on cricketer Sachin Tendulkar he said, "There should not be a demand for Bharat Ratna, as Atalji is an international ratna."

I bought the Epson Stylus NX420 and was surprised at how well it works. I followed the instructions to setup the wireless capabilities and immediately started printing. I wanted to scan a 6 page document and it kept scanning each page into a separate file. Then I had a 'LIGHT BULB MOMENT'. I went to the Epson website and checked to see if there was an updated printer and scanner driver AND THERE WAS!!! After downloading the updated drivers, my scanner is now scanning multi-page documents into one file! I have been an EPSON customer for many years and they have never let me down! :-)

I purchased this unit based on Epson's reputation for making outstanding printers. To that end, I was not disappointed. Scanner quality is also excellent. That said, there are also drawbacks. Let's examine both: PROS: Excellent print quality. Excellent scanner quality. Affordable price. CONS: Drinks ink. I've only printed maybe a half dozen text pages and one small photo, and already my black cartridge shows as half empty. WiFi problems. The WiFi feature was easy to set up, and the unit worked wirelessly with no problem - but it caused the loss of my internet connection. I can only connect to the internet if I connect the unit via USB (which thankfully I was able to do). By far the worst drawback is the fact You cannot use the unit if any of the ink cartridges are empty. Meaning if Your blue cartridge is empty, You cannot even print a black text document. You also apparently cannot scan. It appears the entire unit goes into lockdown if any cartridges are empty. This is a VERY disturbing caveat that I hope Epson will rectify with a firmware upgrade in the near future.

great printer for price
By jazzy
from Colorado, USA
I have had this printer 4 years and have had no problems! Printing out picture with great quality and dosent seem to use alot of ink.
We have three of these printers
By beancounter
from Daytona Beach, FL
Our office recently suffered a fire and we lost one of these printers. After surfing the web I was able to find a replacement -- these printers work perfectly with our programs. It's almost impossible to find new printers that are backfed and print face up. It does everything else we need specifically scanning and has a port for photo and data drives. I was lost without it!
Good Overall
By Robotman
from Nashville, TN, USA
I have had several Epson printers. Only had fair experience with the CX series but once I got to the XP 4** series that all changed. They seem to work better if you use them on a regular basis like 2-7 days per week. I don't and sometimes that causes printing issues and I need to run the head cleaning function. Other than this waste paper, time, and ink it usually works. I love the individual ink cartridges. I also like that I can order them from Epson for a just a little less than going to the store plus I usually get free shipping so no wasted gas for me. One of the things I found is that it is best to use the higher capacity cartridges. The other is that many people complain about ink usage. I found that the low ink warnings are just that for the first 2 warnings. I always wait until the 3rd warning before I change a cartridge unless I have a lot of printing to do or if it's after the 2nd warning and I need to run a head cleaning cycle. At that point I go ahead and change the cartridge since it will run a cleaning cycle as part of the ink charge cycle. The printer doesn't like cold very much. Most of my issues happen in the winter months when I keep the house cooler (68 degrees or less). The other is really low humidity. I lived in a very dry state and had to run the head clean function fairly regular. Since I have moved to a state with a lot more humidity this doesn't seem to happen as often. The scan feature is great albeit a little slow if you want to scan a lot of photos or documents. I have to admit that I do use a very old laser printer for most of my B&W only documents, such as tax documents, since it is cheaper to print just B&W with the laser printer.

I think this printer is quality for price. Its not too loud, not to slow, not blury in any way, the only thing not so wonderful about this printer is the fact it goes through ink much too fast. But the new ink cartriges are inexpensive... but in the long run with the speed it goes through them, its about the same as any of the higher priced printeres anyway. So if you really dont need to print that much, its a STEAL!!

I use my Epson NX420 ...
By Anonymous
from Margaretville, NY
I use my Epson NX420 daily and I have not experienced any printer problems. I had one problem with the Epson ink however, it caused a problem and it required me to run the clean function several times to get my printer to work correctly. . It was a bad ink cartridge. I do believe the ink replacement cartridges are over priced. They are not worth the cost at all; however, what choice do I have. I had problems in the past with generic inks and re-fill kits and it cost be a printer.
Thumbs down
By Bobbi
from GA
I have become very frustrated with ink cartridge replacement method with this printer. Twice I have replaced genuine Epson cartridges and keep getting the the message "Ink cartridges not recognized." In fact I'm having that problem now. I've following the instructions to no avail. About ready to toss this printer on the junk heap!
Bottom Line No, I would not recommend this to a friend
NX420 All-in-One
By AIAonA1A
from Florida
I have used this printer for several years for printing (wired and wireless), scanning, and copying. I am generally pleased with all. I would like to see certain features adjusted. Scanning should retain the color adjustments set when other features are adjusted (such as cropping). Loading paper into a partially full tray requires putting new pages behind existing to avoid traction issues. Ink cartridges 125 cannot be substituted with large capacity 126 even though they look identical. Ink usage is a large cost factor.

Have you taken Animal Stak or M-Stak?
I am going to purchase either M-Stak or Stak. As I understand it neither one is hormonal. Is Stak really anything more than trib and milk thistle? Does M- Stak genuinely do what it says. Which is going to render better results? Let me know if you have taken both or either. What is the best way to take these? I searched. Any info is appreciated.

Makani was born on Feb. 14.
SeaWorld San Diego said nearly 12,000 Facebook fans voted.

Debt-laden Essar Steel is looking to turn profitable at net level in the current fiscal by doubling capacity utilisation of its 10 million tonne Hazira plant, reducing interest costs and focusing on higher margin sale of value-added products and commissioning of its slurry pipeline.
"We are targeting to double production as compared with the last fiscal. Added to it two vital things are in place -- one is the slurry pipeline in Odisha coming onstream next month and Vizag slurry pipeline, which is already in operation. That is a big booster. We are looking to get profitable at net level," Dilip Oommen, CEO and MD of Essar Steel, told dna. The 255-km long slurry pipeline, which will connect the company's beneficiation plant at Dabuna to the pellet plant at Paradip, Odisha, has been delayed by almost two years. "Apart from reducing freight cost, the slurry pipeline will also improve the availability of material for pelletisation, which in turn helps the downstream. We expect to have more than enough of pellets at a very competitive price. If there is an excess availability of pellets it will be sold in the market as well," Oomen said.
The company's operational cost is likely to come down with the commencement of slurry pipeline. Apart from this, it now has access to coal-based power and national grid, which will also bring down its power cost. And last, fall in interest cost on dollarisation of debt; all these three factors would help the company to turn profitable this fiscal, he said. Last two fiscals have been extremely tough for the Ruias-owned company as its debt ballooned to more than Rs 31,000 crore in last fiscal. The company has been since then trying to turn around operations through various measures, including dollarisation of debt.
Mahadev Iyer, director-finance and chief financial officer of Essar Steel, said the company at present has a total debt of Rs 35,000 crore, which includes Rs 29,000 crore long-term borrowings and Rs 6,000 crore working capital. The company has so far dollarised (which essentially means conversion of rupee debt into dollar debt) $1 billion worth of loans, while it plans to complete the process by dollarising the remaining $2 billion by June. In fiscal 2013, the company's interest cost had swelled to Rs 2,955 crore.
Through dollarisation, Essar Steel has been able to save Rs 400 crore of interest in fiscal 2014, and it expects to save Rs 800 crore in fiscal 2015, Iyer said. During 2012-13, Essar Steel posted earnings before interest, tax, depreciation and amortisation of Rs 1,822 crore, according to its annual report. But it incurred a net loss of Rs 2,785 crore on a total income of Rs 19,190 crore. The unlisted company is yet to report earnings for the last fiscal.
The Hazira steel plant, which mainly produces flat products, has been operating at an average 40% capacity in fiscal 2014 following cash crunch, short supply of raw material and overall slump in steel demand within the country. The company, however, hopes to double capacity utilisation in current fiscal and produce around 7 mt of steel. India's steel consumption grew by just 0.6% in 2013-14 fiscal, its lowest in four years, to 73.93 mt. Oommen expects some revival in steel demand post elections.
"We have a wide range of products and our quality is very much appreciated and commands premium today, so pushing products into the market is not a problem. Our base quality (basic steel like hot-rolled coil) is very good but we are trying to maximise our niche or specialised steel production so that our base grades in the market are minimised." "We have primarily three avenues; OEMs, retail and exports, so it is not one market where we push all the quantity. We are port based, so exports to many countries work out cheaper than domestic freight also," he said.

Bourbon balls are a classic American holiday candy. Vanilla wafers are combined with pecans, powdered sugar and cocoa powder. Corn syrup and authentic Kentucky bourbon and then the mixture is chilled for a couple of hours. Traditionally, bourbon balls are rolled in powdered sugar but you can also cover them in granulated sugar, chopped nuts, cocoa powder, or even shredded coconut. Bourbon balls make a great homemade gift.
1 cup fine vanilla wafer crumbs
1 cup pecans, finely chopped
1 cup powdered sugar
2 tablespoons unsweetened cocoa powder
1/4 cup bourbon
1 teaspoon tablespoons plus 1 ½ light corn syrup
1 cup powdered sugar
In a deep bowl combine crushed vanilla wafer crumbs, chopped pecans, powdered sugar, and the cocoa.
In a separate bowl, blend the bourbon and corn syrup.
Pour the bourbon mixture into the dry mixture; blend well.
Cover and chill for 3 hours.
Shape small bits of the dough into balls and roll them in the powdered sugar. Store in refrigerator over night in tightly covered containers.
You can also make these a few days in advance for best flavor.

HG primer, doesn't break me out, doesn't feel weird and fake and slippery. Nice, light, fresh, brightening, and keeps my foundation locked to my face all day (even when it rains!) Definitely worth the money. Gives a poreless effect to Nars Sheer Glow.

I love this primer it is the first 100% HG foundation primer for me, I first tried it in the May glossybox and at first I dismissed it due to the smell a few weeks later I was cleaning out my stash for spring/summer cleaning and I figured I would give it a fair shot. I used it and I felt it held on my MUFE HD foundation really well I was impressed and day by day I went threw my foundations and only found that my two BB creams it was a tad to much with them but I can use this year round in the summer I skip morning moisterizer and use this in its place, then in winter I use this and moisturizer also in winter I can use this with BB creams which is nice. It is thin but not greasey I really enjoy it a lot. Though pricey at $48 it is in clearance at my ulta a lot so when I saw it last time I bought two for 52.31 tax included but I would for sure buy this sale or no sale.

I really love this primer because works really well. It's a hydrating primer and has the consistency of a thin lotion and is very similar to Embryolisse Lait-Concentre, except less greasy-feeling. I love the Lait-Concentre, I even bought another one, but the NP is in ways better. It also smells really similar to the lait-concentre.
This does a great job at hydrating your skin and KEEPING it hydrated. Sometimes, in the past, I've felt a bit tight around my face after awhile but with this primer I feel amazing and moisturized all day.
It's an expensive purchase and I got two of these sample sizes, but I'm definitely going to have to dish out some money on just a primer. I highly recommend this!

I got a sample of this product in the May Glossybox Subscription. I used this under my makeup the day I received it because I was super excited to try it, as I am a primer junkie. Didn't think much of it when applying it as I usually wait a little bit after I apply my primer to start my foundation. My makeup lasted it's normal wear so it wasn't something to write home about. The allergic reaction, on the other hand, was HORRENDOUS. My skin can take a beating without getting any type of allergic reaction to products. Under my makeup, my skin so raw. The skin under my eyes and around my mouth were red sore blotches. UGH so disappointed. **PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE test this product out on a place other than your face before purchasing!!!** You face will thank you!!!

Stay away from this product! I found that it did not help my makeup smooth on any better and it certainly did not help my makeup stay put- in fact after 3 hours I had to reapply my foundation again. Far too expensive for what you're getting- I was very disappointed. Wish I never bought it

This is a very silky and elegant primer. It is lightweight, and almost like a gel-cream texture. It goes on skin very easily with a lot of slip, and feels light and breathable. It does a great job of priming skin, and really helps makeup last longer. It also blurs pores and adds a light softness to skin.
It is not silicone-y, greasy, heavy or thick. Once you put it on, it feels light as a feather. But I can definitely tell when I don't wear it .... my pores look more obvious and my makeup doesn't look as fresh after several hours. So for as light as it feels on skin, it still creates an effective base for makeup.
It's not oil absorbing though. So if you need oil control you will have to use the NP Oil Control Powder or another oil control product on top.
Overall, I really like it. I like how light and breathable it feels on my skin, and how soft and silky my skin feels after I put it on. I use this primer along with the Napoleon Perdis Foundation Stick (which is *awesome*!), and the finish is as close to perfect as my skin is ever gonna get! :)

Love this primer! It gently moisturises your skin making it soft and a perfect base for makeup. I will definitely recommend this to all my friends!

This primer is amazing WHEN USED RIGHT. I use about the size of two peas for my whole face and it gives my face a healthy glow as well as keeping my makeup on longer. My skin feels smooth and it doesn't break me out which is amazing. I also mix it with my foundation for more sheer coverage.

I'm really indifferent about the effects of this primer. It doesn't make my skin look amazing nor does it make it look or feel any worse... The tube is a good design, nice and hygienic. As for the price I understand the price is a little higher as napoleon is a reputable brand, I just don't think this product is worth dishing out for.. All in all wasn't good wasn't awful I'll keep looking for a primer I like.

And I mess up hairdo's like it's a pair of shoes

He goes through girls (messes up their hair during sex) as fast as he goes through pairs of sneakers — very rapidly! We know how big of a sneaker fanatic he is.
