Lease a Brand New 2011 Toyota Rav 4
36 Months | $229 Per Month | Zero Down
(Excludes Local Taxes, $650 Toyota Bank Fee, Motor Vehicles, and Local Taxes)
Toyota RAV4 Review – What the Auto Press Says
The 2011 Toyota RAV4 ranks 1 out of 23 Affordable Compact SUVs. This ranking is based on our analysis of 76 published reviews and test drives of the Toyota RAV4, and our analysis of reliability and safety data.
Reviewers call the 2011 Toyota RAV4 one of the most practical and family-friendly SUVs you can buy. While the interior feels cheap compared to the competition, the RAV4 makes up for it by offering seating for up to seven and a powerful V6 engine option.
While Helen of Troy had a face that launched a thousand ships, the Toyota RAV4 has the combination of size, fuel economy and utility that launched a thousand compact SUVs. Most reviewers regard the RAV4 as the model that took compact SUVs from a niche product for off-road enthusiasts to family-friendly station wagon alternatives. The 2011 Toyota RAV4, reviewers say, continues that tradition.
"Spacious, comfortable and easy to drive, the 2011 Toyota RAV4 is a top pick for a small-to-midsize crossover SUV, especially if you want a V6 or a usable kid-size third-row seat," says Edmunds. While some reviewers say its design is starting to date (a redesign is rumored for 2012), most agree that the RAV4 offers some features competitors can't match. In particular, reviewers like the optional V6 engine. It's more powerful than most other engines in the class, but still gets pretty good fuel economy. The optional third-row seat also helps the RAV4 stand out. Reviewers say it's cramped and best for kids, but it does give the RAV4 a leg up on the competition when it comes to carpool duty.
- "Available with the most powerful engine in the compact-SUV class, seating for seven, and impressive cargo room, refinement, and road manners, RAV4 is an easy choice. Toyota's reputation for resale value is another asset." — Consumer Guide
- "The RAV4's combination of compact size, plentiful and practical interior space, excellent powertrains, solid and substantial feel, and fine road manners makes for a sensible real-world SUV. The fact that pricing starts at barely over $20 grand is just icing on the cake." — Car and Driver
- "The RAV4 is among the most versatile compact crossover-type SUVs." — Truck Trend
- "It's very much in tune with what buyers now expect from any new utility. That is the biggest possible versatility in the smallest, most efficient package possible." — Motor Week
- "Its size makes it a great errand runner, even if the rear cargo door opens from the wrong side for a U.S. audience. There is the Toyota promise of quality construction and long life. Plus, if you can hold the line on options, you can get one for a reasonable price." — MarketWatch
While the RAV4 launched the segment, the competition is starting to catch up. Several other options in the class offer nicer interiors, more interior features and lower prices. If you like the RAV4, reviewers say you'll likely be happy with it. Just make sure you shop the competition as the RAV4 is no longer the only compact SUV game in town.
Other SUVs to Consider
The RAV4 is most often compared to the Honda CR-V. While the CR-V doesn't have an optional third row, it does have a nicer interior. Plus, reviewers say the CR-V's cargo area is easier to access. If you're considering the V6 RAV4, note that the CR-V doesn't have a V6 option. Hovever, compared to a four-cylinder RAV4, the CR-V is tough competition.
Though it starts at about $1,000 more than the RAV4, many reviewers say the Chevrolet Equinox is worth the extra money. It beats the RAV4's base highway fuel economy and has a more up-to-date interior, with more standard features. Like the RAV4, it has optional all-wheel drive and an optional V6 that's good on gas – if V6 power is a priority, make sure you check out the Equinox.

BOSTON (AP) — Convicted murderer Michelle Kosilek fought for more than a decade before a federal judge in Massachusetts ordered prison officials to allow her to have a sex-change operation.
Mass. transgender inmate fighting for electrolysis
Kosilek is still fighting, this time for electrolysis treatments, another step she says she needs to complete her transformation into a woman.
Kosilek's lawyers will be in court Monday to ask U.S. District Judge Mark Wolf to order the state Department of Correction to provide the hair removal treatments. The department is appealing his ruling ordering sex-reassignment surgery.
Kosilek was born male but has received hormone treatments and now lives as a woman in an all-male male prison, where she is serving a life sentence. Kosilek was named Robert when married to Cheryl Kosilek and convicted of murdering her in 1990.
Kosilek, now 63, received seven electrolysis treatments in 2008 to remove facial and chest hair. The DOC discontinued the treatments after finding she had already received significant hair removal and saying her remaining hair could be removed by shaving or using depilatories.
Her lawyers declined to comment on the electrolysis request but argued in court documents filed last month that the DOC provided electrolysis for a limited time "to keep the issue from being fully litigated at trial, showing further indifference to Kosilek's serious medical needs."
The DOC also declined to comment but argued in court documents that Kosilek is attempting to get treatments that have already been denied by the judge.

Former Newcastle United star Andy Cole has urged fans to understand the culture shock that hits new players arriving on Tyneside.
Cole told the Evening Chronicle: "At the end of the day I was just a normal boy who came up from the south.
"I had been at Arsenal and then Bristol City, but for me Newcastle was a goldfish bowl.
"Being young, I found it difficult to handle.
"I wanted to do very well for the team, but the city breathes football and that is the only thing people want to talk about, which is fine.
"But it's a shock when you aren't used to it.
"In most places people want to chill after football but Newcastle was special and that's just the way the Geordies are."
Cole added: "The Toon Army were brilliant then and they still are now.
"Regardless of what people have said about me since, I had a brilliant time at Newcastle.
"And I'll never forget my time at the club – the fans were always first class with me."

OSO LOCO!! KTM 990s attack Colorado, Utah, and the best of the TAT
View Single Post
You can do it!
Joined: Aug 2009
Location: behind BigWan, trying to keep my feet tucked in :)
Oddometer: 1,780
Day 1: 8/1/13
Reno to Ely, NV 453 miles
Well, considering that everyone was still up at 1am,
it's not surprising that we didn't make our 6am departure time...
But, we were heading out by 7. Not bad!
Hmm. No breakfast pics.
I guess I wasn't fully committed to doing a ride report yet!
I do have a tire pic, though.
So, Bartek had showed up with a TKC80 rear.
It made everyone very nervous - they all said, "TKC80? oooh."
Scott offered one of his Motoz Tractionators (and matt was willing to put it on...)
But, Bartek declined. He said he would be fine.
(edit - that linkie didn't seem to be working right - it was the worried marge simpson noise)
here's the face:
The schoolbus.
Looking very schoolbus-y
Last one out is a rotten egg!
(oh wait, looks like was us!)
Everyone had fueled up on the way to Scott's,
so we were able to head right into the dirt
A map would be nice here, but I don't really have one.
Oh, here's what our proposed tracks were going to be.
Matt had routed some pavement in there, just because we had so many miles to cover.
But, with Scott's local knowledge, we ended up doing a lot more dirt than this shows.
It was mostly fast dirt...
With the occasional gate.
We had some moments of confusion...
But made decent time.
A lot of the route was un-tested.
But we lucked into some good stuff.
The guys seemed to have fun...
In the vastness of Nevada.
Here's a short video to give you an idea of Day 1...
(HD if you want it)
The music was Radek's suggestion - thanks, Radek!
I didn't even know they did that song.
It was perfect.
Goggles Pizano was pretty thrilled to show off his backyard -
thanks, Scott!
There were plenty of opportunities to let the big gals stretch their legs...
Our first stop was Lovelock.
Fuel for the bikes, then fuel for the riders...
And, some minor repairs...
Bartek's Touratech GPS mount had broken.
Electrical tape and zip ties to the rescue!
Radek said, "What are you even doing with that thing?
Friends don't let friends buy Touratech sh*t!"
Matt and I usually have Interphone f5 headsets, but for this ride we got Senas.
Lica, Radek and Bartek already use Senas and Lica was bringing 2 extras for Ceasar and Scott.
He said that with Senas, we could all link together and talk.
It was a splurge, but Matt and I got smh10s so we wouldn't be left out
It didn't always work out, but when it did it was fantastic.
More about that later...
Here Lica is getting Osito hooked up.
OK, Scott - lead the way...
More untested tracks...
There were many lessons learned on day 1...
I don't think any of us were used to riding in a large group.
Having to space out for the dust and having untested GPS tracks made for some hiccups.
We got separated a few times and we had to work out some ground rules.
At this point, I think it was just us and Lica...
This road was super fun, but it turned out that we were off track.
Eventually, we met back up with Radek...
and Osito.
We figured we'd find the rest in Austin.
and we did.
Gassed up the bikes
And gassed up the riders.
It was after 3pm and I don't know if we were even at the halfway point....
Oso far to go...
Oso bored? you can find the rest of our ride reports
make stupid your favorite!
LittleWan screwed with this post 08-23-2013 at

Israel fears 'flood' of migrants threatens state
Haifa University geography professor Arnon Soffer estimates that if the current pace persists there will be approximately 500,000 illegal migrants in Israel within 15 years. He called the influx an "existential threat" to a country of just 7.6 million people.
To be sure, Israel is not alone in confronting the issue.
Greece, which accounts for 90 percent of the European Union's detected illegal border crossings, has asked for emergency help from the EU in patrolling its border with Turkey. Italy, with its long and loosely guarded coastline, has become the destination of tens of thousands of would-be immigrants a year, most from Libya.
The Africans have found pockets of sympathy in Israel. Human rights groups and high profile figures like Nobel laureate and Holocaust survivor Elie Wiesel have urged the government to offer a home to Darfurians escaping genocide.
The Africans describe harrowing journeys, fleeing persecution at home and making their way through Egypt, where human rights groups say border guards have shot and killed 85 Africans trying to reach Israel since 2007.
In Egypt's Sinai desert, the migrants pay thousands of dollars to Bedouin smugglers to get them across the border and are often held hostage by the smugglers who extort their relatives for more.
The Israel branch of Physicians for Human Rights has collected dozens of accounts from migrants describing abuse at the hands of Bedouin traffickers. According to the testimonies, smugglers routinely rape migrants, subject them to electric shocks, burn them with iron bars and lock them in sweltering containers without food or water.
"Five or six men raped me multiple times, I'm not sure how many times. They also beat me many times. I felt like I was going to die," according to a testimony from an Eritrean woman, identified only as H.A.S.
Abdul-Rasul, the Darfurian who arrived in 2007, is one of the few who has earned legal status in Israel.
He works in a computer goods store in south Tel Aviv. His children now all speak fluent Hebrew, and his 17-year-old daughter - who survived a gunshot to the head in Sudan - is thinking of joining the military in Israel.
But he doubts he would repeat his journey today, saying it would be far too dangerous.
"I was one of the lucky ones," he said.

nvaudio.o insmod failure
1 Attachment(s)
Now that i have nvnet working, i'd like to get my sound drivers running just as well :).
Running Mandrake 9.0.
Attached is a list of hardware i have, you can see is the lines
have you enabled the sound card support in the kernel?
I haven't made any changes to the kernel. I believe it comes configured with everything needed to support sound cards. The other computer i installed mandrake on works fine with default kernel.
Is there anyway to specify an IRQ setting with insmod or modprobe? the manpages weren't clear enough on this point. They seemed to suggest that these options are module specific.
BTW, did i post this in the wrong forum? I hit the post new topic button off of a post i found from the search function, and thought i was posting in "Linux and Nvidia Graphics". Maybe some kind moderator could move the thread there?
i have exactly the same probllem
when i try insmod nvaudio i obtain this :
Using /lib/modules/2.4.21-0.25mdk/kernel/drivers/sound/nvaudio.o
Oct 23 18:34:25 localhost modprobe: /lib/modules/2.4.21-0.25mdk/kernel/drivers/sound/nvaudio.o:
I need help ....
Emit >> what is your mobo ? me epox 8rda+
epox 8rda
i had the same message. i got mine working in redhat by going to the /etc/modules.conf file, and erasing the sound entry the install put in, making sure the "alias nvaudio" entry was there, then rebooting. i had to put the "option nvaudio spdif_status=0" option in also, because the audio on flash animations was stuttering. now, my sound dies after running certain apps, or leaving the computer for extended periods. i can only fix it by rebooting.
insmod failure
Me too.
I got it working *partly but without full duplex.
Is full duplex possible ???
Anyone done it?
Ensure that you don't have any other sound modules loaded. Run an 'lsmod' to see what modules are currently loaded in your system. As well, if your distributions comes with a ready-made kernel, it may have sound compiled directly into the kernel (which i doubt).
If you find any sound modules there, say i810_audio, remove them from the running kernel with "rmmod -r i810_audio", and then insert the nvaudio drivers with "modprobe -v nvaudio".
But, it does sound to me like there's already drivers loaded, so, run through your lsmod and make sure.
ill persist now I know it can work
I temporarily put in a SB live becuase I need the full duplex for VoIP.

MIT Big Data Initiative at CSAILMember Workshop"Big Data Analytics: Challenges in Big Data for Data Mining, Machine Learning and Statistics"
Extracting useful information from very large data sets is challenging. In this workshop, we will focus on the challenges of applying machine learning, data mining, and statistics to massive-scale data sets.
Date: MARCH 26, 2014Location: MIT CSAIL, Stata Center, Bldg 32, Student Street 1st floor, 32-155Cambridge, MA 02139
"In the past, we've focused on scale, but over the last few years, the big new problems have been about variety," says Sam Madden, professor of electrical engineering at the MIT Computer Science and Artificial Intelligence Laboratory (CSAIL). "Big Data is no longer just about processing a huge number of bytes, but doing things with data that you couldn't do previously. Increasingly, data is coming at you really fast, and it's much more complex. It's not just tabular data you can easily stick into a spreadsheet or a database."

Comparatively, the 112th Congress had 4.2 percent of introduced bills enacted into law in the second session.[6] The Senate confirmed 13,949 out of 18,323 executive nominations received (76.1 percent). For more information pertaining to Cantwell's voting record in the 113th Congress, please see the below sections.[7]
National security
John Brennan CIA nomination
Cantwell voted for the confirmation of John Brennan as Director of the Central Intelligence Agency. The nomination was confirmed by the Senate on March 7, 2013, with a vote of 63 - 34. Most Democrats supported the nomination, while Republicans were somewhat divided with roughly one-third supporting the nomination.[8]
Farm bill
On February 4, 2014, the Democratic controlled Senate approved the Federal Agriculture Reform and Risk Management Act of 2013, H.R. 2642, also known as the Farm Bill.[9] It passed the Senate with a vote of 68-32. The nearly 1,000-page bill reformed and continued various programs of the Department of Agriculture through 2018. The $1 trillion bill expanded crop insurance for farmers by $7 billion over the next decade and created new subsidies for rice and peanut growers that will kick in if or when prices drop; however, cuts to the food stamp program cut an average of $90 per month for 1.7 million people in 15 states.[10] Cantwell joined with 46 other Democratic senators in favor of the bill.
2014 Budget
On January 16, 2014, the Democratic-controlled Senate approved H.R. 3547, a $1.1 trillion spending bill to fund the government through September 30, 2014.[11][12] The Senate voted 72-26 for the 1,582 page bill, with 17 Republicans and 55 Democrats voting in favor of the bill.[12] The omnibus package included 12 annual spending bills to fund federal operations.[13] It included a 1 percent increase in the paychecks of federal workers and military personnel, a $1 billion increase in Head Start funding for early childhood education, reduced funding to the Internal Revenue Service and the Environmental Protection Agency and left the Affordable Care Act without any drastic cuts. Cantwell voted with the Democratic Party in favor of the bill.[11][12]
No Budget, No Pay Act of 2013
Cantwell voted for H.R.325 -- No Budget, No Pay Act of 2013. The bill passed the Senate on January 31, 2013, with a vote of 64 - 34. The purpose of the bill was to temporarily suspend the debt ceiling and withhold the pay of members of Congress until a budget could be passed. The vote largely followed party lines with Democrats overwhelmingly supporting it and many Republicans in opposition to the bill.[14]
Temporary Debt Limit Extension Act
Cantwell voted for Bill S 540, and on February 12, 2014, the Temporary Debt Limit Extension Act passed in the Senate with a vote of 55 - 43.[15] This bill extended the debt limit of the federal government until March 15, 2015 in order to allow the federal government to meet necessary obligations. The House of Representatives had passed the bill on February 11, 2014 with an amendment, and the Senate approved the amendment and passed the bill on February 13, 2014.[16]
Government shutdown
- See also: United States budget debate, 2013
During the shutdown in October 2013, the Senate rejected, down party lines, every House-originated bill that stripped the budget of funding for the Affordable Care Act. A deal was reached late on October 16, 2013, just hours before the debt ceiling deadline. The bill to reopen the government, H.R. 2775, lifted the $16.7 trillion debt limit and funded the government through January 15, 2014. Federal employees also received retroactive pay for the shutdown period. The only concession made by Senate Democrats was to require income verification for Obamacare subsidies.[17] The final vote on H.R. 2775 was 81-18, with all 18 votes against the bill from Republican members. Cantwell voted with the Democratic Party for the bill.[18]
Mexico-U.S. border
Cantwell voted against Senate Amendment 1197 -- Requires the Completion of the Fence Along the United States-Mexico Border. The amendment was rejected by the Senate on June 18, 2013, with a vote of 39 - 54. The purpose of the amendment was to require the completion of 350 miles of fence described in the Illegal Immigration Reform and Immigrant Responsibility Act of 1996 before registered provisional immigrant status may be granted. It would also require 700 miles of fence be completed before the status of registered provisional immigrants may be changed to permanent resident status. The vote followed party lines.[19]

Violence Against Women (2013)
Cantwell voted for S.47 -- Violence Against Women Reauthorization Act of 2013. The bill was passed by the Senate on February 12, 2013, with a vote of 78 - 22. The purpose of the bill was to combat violence against women, from domestic violence to international trafficking in persons. All 22 dissenting votes were cast by Republicans.[20]
Previous congressional sessions
Fiscal Cliff
Cantwell voted for the fiscal cliff compromise bill, which made permanent most of the Bush tax cuts originally passed in 2001 and 2003, while also raising tax rates on the highest income levels. The bill was passed in the Senate by an 89 - 8 vote on January 1, 2013.[21]

Social issues
Washington Redskins
Cantwell joined Rep. Tom Cole and called for the National Football League to back a name change for the Washington Redskins, saying the name is offensive to Native Americans.[23]
In a letter to NFL Commissioner Roger Goodwell, Cantwell, chair of the Indian Affairs Committee, and Rep. Cole, member of the Native American Caucus, wrote, "Saying the Washington football team 'honored Native Americans' perpetuates a charade that dishonors Native people and their governments and erodes the reputation of the National Football League...We believe that the fact that this term does not honor — but rather disparages — Indian people and tribes is what will and should guide federal policymakers," they wrote in the letter, which they plan to send Monday.[23]
Cantwell won re-election in 2012.[1] Cantwell and Michael Baumgartner advanced past the blanket primary, and Cantwell defeated Baumgartner in the general election on November 6, 2012.[24]
Cantwell had a $4.5 million advantage over her challengers during the 2012 election.[25]

How to put your own power
Today I played against a pusher, you could say. It wasnt very bad. He was very consistent but not that kind of pusher you loose your mind though.
I lost but the thing that caused me more trouble wasnt that everything came back, it was that his shots had nothing on them. Deep, but ver slow.
When I tryed to accelerate the ball normally it would sail long. I hit the ball and try to play within my comfort zone, but i HIT the ball. But against this type of players that just give you junk I seem to have trouble.
I am a 3.5 player. I can hit the ball with some power and good spin. At the end of the match the guy told me I should have won.. but made lot fo stupid mistakes.
What to do in this situation? In one part of the game I was hitting more flat taking the ball with a compact stroke (à lá Tomic) and the worked. I won 8 / 10 points.. but then I stoped doing it.
Thanks in advance

LUMBERTON — The director of the Robeson County Board of Elections is pretty sure that a good number of Robeson County voters will participate in the upcoming Democratic and Republican primaries on May 6.
"I believe there is going to be a real good turnout for early voting and on Election Day," G.L. Pridgen said. "There is a race for sheriff this year and that usually brings more people out to the polls."
This year, candidates will be vying for their party's nomination for federal, state and county offices, including county commissioner, sheriff, clerk of Superior Court, district attorney, judges, state senator, and state representatives. Non-partisan school board candidates will also be elected to the Public Schools of Robeson County Board of Education during the primary.
In 2010, the last primary that was held that did not include a presidential race, about 18,000 ballots were cast, representing about 27 percent of the registered voters.
Early voting for both party primaries begins Thursday and continues through May 3. Four polling sites will be open throughout the county.
"We are opening early voting sites at locations throughout the county where we think the heaviest voter turnout will come from," Pridgen said. "These sites may be different for future elections."
In addition to the Board of Elections Office at 800 N. Walnut St. in Lumberton, voters can cast their ballots at the senior center in Fairmont, and at the Maxton and Pembroke public libraries.
Polling sites and hours are as follows:
— Board of Elections office: Weekdays from 8:15 a.m to 5:15 p.m., and 8 a.m. to 1 p.m. on May 3, which is a Saturday.
— Fairmont, Maxton and Pembroke: Thursdays and Fridays (April 24 and 25, and May 1 and 2), 9 a.m. to 5 p.m.; and on May 3 from 8 a.m. to 1 p.m.
Because of new election laws, voter registration no longer is permitted on the days of early voting. The last day to register to vote in the May 6 primary was April 11.
According to Pridgen, as of Friday the Board of Elections had sent out 202 ballots to voters who have requested to vote absentee. The last day to request an absentee ballot is April 29. The request must be returned to the BOE office or postmarked by 5 p.m. April 29.
"The staff has been working very hard to get all absentee ballot requests mailed out on the same day we received them," Pridgen said.
Pridgen said that another new law requires that all voters cast their ballots in the correct precinct in which they reside. Precincts will have only their registered voters listed in their books, and will not have the correct ballots for anyone but their registered voters.
Although they will be asked if they have a photo ID when they go to the polls, Pridgen said voters will not have to show an ID in order to cast their ballot.
"A new law states that voters will have to show a photo ID at the polls beginning in 2016," he said. "We are just asking voters now if they have an ID so that if they don't, we will give them information to help them get one before 2016. We do not want anyone left out that wants to vote."
Voting on May 6 will take place from 6:30 a.m. to 7:30 p.m. Polling sites will be open in all of the county's precincts.
Pridgen said that with the new election laws in place, as well as training given to all poll workers, he doesn't see there being the number of voter irregularities that have occurred in Robeson County elections in the past. He said Friday that there have been some cases reported of election rules and regulations not being followed.
"We do get some reports of zealous campaign workers doing things that are not legal," Pridgen said. "When we get complaints that warrant it, we just pass that information on to the state or give the person making the complaint the number they can call to log their complaint with the state. It is hard at this (county) level to decide if certain complaints are valid."
According to Pridgen, there are currently 52,900 registered Democrats, 8,700 registered Republicans, and 12,700 registered unaffiliated. Those voters registered unaffiliated can participate in either the Democratic or Republican primary.

Out of the Mire
Art Print | by Mollie Everett Field | #256623
I was amazed when I first heard about Land Rovers and The Camel Trophey The men go through very difficult challenges to prove they have the staminer to stay the course. I couldn't resist painting these men to try to get the 'feel' of the mud and sheer hard work. Plus the good old Land Rover never let them down.All images contained on this website are copyrighted property of their respective owners. All rights reserved.

We partner with the world's top museums and galleries to bring you exclusive prints of the highest quality. Our teams of designers ensure the colours are accurate, papers are well suited and the best frames are suggested.
In the printing room, artworks are printed on state-of-the-art machines with a team of technicians checking colour and quality every step of the way.
After being cut down to size, our team carefully finish any stray edges, check measurements and prepare the prints for mounting and framing.
We have a team of master framers who work with high-quality, responsibly-sourced wood to create our vast range of framing combinations - each frame is bespoke and made to order for every print.
Our selection of hand-finished frames are painted or stained by hand in a variety of colours, and finished with a layer of wax - the end result is a uniquely crafted, beautiful frame that is made to last.
In this workshop everything comes together - the print, the frame and the glass - in a seamless and stream-lined process.
The artwork is carefully mounted in preparation for framing.
Once mounted, the print is ready to be covered by glass or perspex - a delicate procedure but expertly done with not a fingerprint in sight.
After a final, thorough check, the framed print is ready to be carefully packaged up and shipped to the customer.
For those who order their art as canvas prints, the same amount of attention and care goes into the process. Here, the print is being transferred to a wooden frame.
As with the framed prints, our canvases are all hand-finished in the workshop - a labour of love from start to finish.

Tamil Nadu Fire and Rescue Services personnel on Wednesday conducted training in fire fighting techniques and rescue strategies to hundreds of employees of a jewellery shop on Oppanakkara Street.
Talking to The Hindu, Divisional Fire and Rescue Services Office N. Subramanian said that knowledge on fire fighting and rescue measures is a must for people who work in special buildings and multi-storied structures. The Department has been offering similar training to a number of commercial establishments, hotels, shopping complexes in a bid to reduce loss of human lives and minimise damages in the event of a fire accident.
The employees were given a demonstration on rescue using snorkel, ladder and rope, how to put out the fire on materials and also on saving people. Any private establishment interested in equipping their employees with this life saving skill, could approach the Divisional Forest Office on State Bank Road near Coimbatore Railway Junction, he said.

In doubles, I regularly play with 4.0 guys at my club and hold my own. I would rate myself as a high-level 3.5 at doubles. I am in pretty bad shape, so 3.5 singles is tough unless I am blasting a lot of winners (it happens, but not often enough).
USTA bumped me down to 3.0 this season because I went 0-4 last year. At first I was a little sore, then mostly just incredulous. I would play up, but there's only one 3.5 18+ team at my club, and they aren't accepting new players (they go to sectionals most years). So I am a 3.0C this season.
Undefeated so far, and I don't see myself losing a match. The guys I play against must think I am the biggest sandbagger ever. So basically, I am
Like I said in one of my replies, the guy did not come off as malicious so sandbagging may not be the right term but I think he could be playing below his level. I didn't yell at the guy and would say my tone was more puzzled amazement than anything. I have had my fair share of losses but the turn of events in the second set just puzzled me.

WR250R or TE511? or something else?

I have legitimately researched KTM's, they are far more expensive new and secondhand than equivalents here (e.g. wr450f etc.). Secondhand condition of available ktms are questionable. Also cost for parts in Australia for them are very high. Even husky parts are relatively cheaper, and i would expect the BMW motor would need far less in hard parts than a katoom. They're a rich mans bike here, and i just can't see the justification to pay more for what they offer. So whilst it's great if they suit you, i have checked them out for myself, and for my circumstances they do not suit.
IF i did have that sort of cash i would get two bikes, but neither would be a ktm. maybe a YZ250?
Buying a bike from another state unseen is just asking to throw money away, i don't know how trustworthy americans are, but you can't trust an aussie to advertise something honestly.
Changing oil is not expensive, or difficult. to me its a complete non factor when differentiating between models. No matter what bike i have i always change the oil very often for peace of mind.
Maybe if you were looking at this scenario as if all bikes cost the same to buy and maintain. But this is not the case. I can and do ride aggressively, i love riding high performance bikes. But you can't ride all hipo bikes to and from trails. And i'm sorry but from my personal experience with ktm i would not say they are nearly as durable as the equivalents available here. I wouldn't expect a 525 to last more than one season of my use without a rebuild.
You need to work on your research skills.
Going by what you have posted here, stick with the WR, or look at a DR650.
I don't think you should be moving to an open class enduro just yet.

Navy Communications Team recognized by CMAs
Naval Surface Warfare Center (NSWC) Port Hueneme's Command Communications Audio Visual team received recognition by the 2011 CHINFO Merit Awards (CMA) for their "Change" video which placed second under the Command Information Campaign category.
Created for a Juneteenth presentation given by Capt. William DeBow, NSWC PHD commander, the 9-minute video demonstrates the value of diversity in an organization, raises awareness of African-American history and ties the captain's family legacy back in to NSWC Port Hueneme and to the overall success of Americans.
The CMAs recognize outstanding media products created by professionals within the NAVSEA community that best represent the organization's mission to support the Navy. This year, more than 450 entries were reviewed across 45 categories in both print and broadcast.
"This competition is not just about excellent individual and unit performance," said Rear Adm. Denny Moynihan, U.S. Navy chief of information. "It's about leadership and initiative, inspiring your people to better perform and show pride in their work, and letting them see you admire their work."
NSWC Port Hueneme is a field activity of Naval Sea Systems Command and provides the United States Navy global fleet with weapon system in-service engineering, logistics, and test and evaluation. NSWC Port Hueneme is located at Naval Base Ventura County, Calif., where it employs more than 1,900 personnel.

May 20, 2015
Best hotel in Oak Harbor by far. Rooms far exceed other hotels and the staff is on the ball and very quiet and comfortable even with lots of guests.
Ideal accomodations
May 11, 2015
I was pleased with the room and the overall accomodations. The room had a sweep on the bottom of the door and curtains that did a good job of darkening the room; the fan on the air conditioning ran constantly, which I like - I hate hotel rooms where I can hear every noise in the hall when the fan cycles off. Loved the free laundry - it will let me travel lighter and I don't have the hassle of running back and forth and checking a dryer and feeding it more quarters. Staff was very friendly. I will keep the pet-friendly policy in mind when I travel for pleasure.
Great Service

The management and staff are top-notch. I wouldn't stay anywhere else in the Oak Harbor area.

Final Score: Anaheim 2, Ottawa 1 (SO)
Ottawa, ON (Sports Network) - Bobby Ryan notched the winner in the shootout as Anaheim clipped Ottawa, 2-1, at Scotiabank Place.
Ryan ended the second round by beating Brian Elliott with a quick forehander. Erik Karlsson then fired a wrister on Jonas Hiller, but he stopped the chance with his pad to end the game.
Corey Perry tallied in regulation for the Ducks, winners in six of their last eight games. Hiller ended with 39 saves.
"It's always nice to win on the road no matter how you get the two points. Not every game is a masterpiece," said Ducks head coach Randy Carlyle.
Mike Fisher provided offense for the Senators, who have lost three in a row and nine of 10. Elliott made 26 stops.
"It seems to be the same tale. We did all of the things we wanted to do today except score more than one goal," said Ottawa's Chris Kelly.
Perry opened the scoring with 5 1/2 to play in the first period, when Perry's second-chance rebound of a Ryan point shot slid home.
Fisher finally equalized for the Sens at 18:19 of the second when he followed up Milan Michalek's backhander in the slot and beat Hiller with a shot inside the left post.
Game Notes
The Ducks improved to 3-2 in shootouts this season and the Senators fell to 0-3...Perry has scored three times in his last four games, and has picked up five points in that span...It was the 27th time this season that Ottawa has scored two goals or less.

In first phase of local body elections in Tirunelveli
TIRUNELVELI: The first phase of civic polls held on Friday has once again categorically proved that people living in rural parts, with limited facilities, are keeping the democracy alive by casting their votes, while most of the voters from educated population continue keep themselves away from the poll process even though there was no trouble on the polling day.
According to the statistics made available to the media after the end of the first phase of the local body elections, 71.26 per cent voters living in village panchayat and panchayat union areas and 70.40 per cent voters of town panchayat areas exercised their franchise.
Only 60.33 per cent electors in third grade municipalities of Ambasamudram and Vickramasingapruam and 60.41 per cent voters living under Tirunelveli Corporation have cast their votes.
Agonising aspect
The most agonising finding of election held for Tirunelveli Corporation is that ward 27 (NGO `A' Colony and adjoining areas) of this civic body registered only 46.49 per cent though it houses well-educated population with 10,487 voters.
Similar trend could be seen in other `educated areas' such as ward 17 (KTC Nagar and Rahmath Nagar - 48.38 per cent), ward 20 (Maharaja Nagar - 49.45 per cent) and ward 26 (Anbu Nagar and Perumalpuram - 46.78 per cent), all having educated population.
On the contrary, 74.10 per cent voters of ward 45 of Tirunelveli Corporation (Malayalamedu and adjoining areas), mostly housing the deprived living with limited facilities and poor sanitary conditions, have cast their votes.
Limited facilities
"I just can't understand this agonising situation. While more than 70 per cent of the voters living in poverty with limited facilities exercise their franchise in all elections without fail, people living in posh localities with all facilities adamantly refuse to come to the polling stations to discharge their democratic duty," said a professor of Manonmaniam Sundaranar University.
"However, this highly fortunate lot regularly reads a minimum of two newspapers and mail or e-mail their opinions and suggestions on various public issues," the professor said.

Used during colonoscopy, the Third Eye Retroscope is an auxiliary imaging device that provides retrograde illumination and visualization of the colon for diagnostic purposes. Developed by Avantis Medical Systems, Inc. of Sunnyvale, Calif., this innovative new endoscopic device is passed through the instrument channel of a standard colonoscope until it extends beyond the tip of the colonoscope. As it emerges, the device automatically turns around 180 degrees to provide a continuous retrograde view while the colonoscope is being withdrawn.
Colonoscopy is widely regarded as the "gold standard" for detection of abnormalities in the colon. However, previous research has revealed that 12-24% of polyps and a significant number of cancers can be missed during colonoscopy, especially if they lie behind folds in the colon wall. [1],[2], [3] This new device is designed to solve this problem by allowing the physician to view the opposite side of those folds during the procedure.
The study (which is still active) has found that, in combination with a standard colonoscope, the Third Eye Retroscope detected 13.3% additional polyps, and 12.4% additional adenomas, compared with the colonoscope alone. Polyps detected with the Third Eye were comparable in size to those seen with the colonoscope.
"Our investigators are finding that the Third Eye Retroscope is a promising new technology for improving visualization during colonoscopy," continued Dr. Waye. "During the study, the Third Eye revealed areas that are often hidden from the forward-viewing colonoscope, and it allowed a significant increase in detection of adenomas and other polyps."
In the 214 patients studied to date, 203 polyps were identified with
the standard colonoscope. With the Third Eye Retroscope, an additional 2

A wonderful mod.
- 5 Unique Factions to play with (Federation, Klingons, Romulans, Borg, Dominion+Cardassians+Breen
- Well balanced mod experience.
- Vast graphical improvements and high quality models+textures.
- Lovely music remastered out of other former Star Trek games, very fitting.
- The spiritual successor to Star Trek Armada2.
- Hero units + their voices included such as Picard, Sisko, Martok, Locutus of Borg, Sela etc.
- Many custom maps.
- Fully working AI support.
- Custom Ui.
- Custom Cinematic
- Basically all stock Soase things have been replaced with things based on Star Trek.
All in all is this a very well made fan modification for Soase Rebellion based upon Star Trek and you really feel the love the devs have put into their creations. Probably one of the best Star Trek games to date. It's very recommendable.

Stating that Narendra Modi was an "ambassador of development" and not a "symbol of fear", BJP Vice President Mukhtar Abbas Naqvi has hit out at "vested interests" for claiming that the party had not done justice to the Muslim community in handing out tickets for the upcoming Lok Sabha polls.
The minority community needs all-round progress through social and political empowerment, Naqvi said as he assured that once it came to power at the Centre, BJP would "compensate for the alleged losses with enough and judicious interest".
"Muslims need development in multiplied quantum to enter the election arena.
"(Some) political parties no doubt hand tickets and opportunities to Muslims, but they are not true to their intention of bringing in a system which would enhance the community's social, economic and educational situation," Naqvi said here yesterday.
"We have launched a movement to (help) those sections who were separated or got annoyed due to certain misconceptions with the hope that they (minorities) would come two steps forward in response to our four steps," he added.
He further condemned Congress, Samajwadi Party and BSP and accused them of painting a false picture of Modi after they had seen the writing on the wall about a BJP victory in the upcoming polls.
"Modi is not a symbol of fear, but an ambassador of development," Naqvi said while expressing confidence that BJP would capture over 50 Lok Sabha seats in Uttar Pradesh.

It was a proud moment for Ravikiran Rangaswamy, a former student of photography at the National Institute of Design (NID), and his mother, Sapna, when writers and littérateurs across the city appreciated their books at a literary interactive session organised at the Ahmedabad National Book Fair on Sunday.
The session was organised to review the three books released by Ravikiran and Sapna. Out of these, '46+14=06, A Story of a Genius', is the first book written by a mother and son which also featured in the Limca Book of Records 2013.
"My son is my best friend and I wanted to give a precious gift to my son. Hence, I have penned down all our experiences and the most memorable moments so that we can cherish the love of a mother and son throughout our life," said Sapna Rangaswamy.
Besides, the work 'Camera & Conversations', written by a mother and son, is the first book on fiction-photography and is a visual treat for all. The book revolves around several strangers whom Ravikiran met for his final photography projects.
Another work, 'The Dance Company' is based on Indian classical dance which deals with love, lust, passion and romance. "The story revolves around a dancer who in search of Lord Krishna meets other artistes and how they found out Krishna," said Ravikiran.
The books were also acknowledged by the visitors present at the session.
