No mud on my face Recently fitted one of these to my Trek Fuel ex bike and hit a very wet and muddy Mabie forest trail. Did an amazing job at stopping mud from flying into my face. Such a simple and fresh design and so effective. Each to fit and remove and keep clean. 10 March 2011
Everyone should have one Can't believe something this simple is so effective. stops 99% of spray coming off the front wheel and landing on your face. every mtb rider should have one of these on their ride. 06 March 2011
Probably the best thing any mountain biker can buy for winter riding. This simple little idea does such a good job of stopping mud and spray from getting in your face. It took a bit of try and error to get it fitted right but not complicated at all. Make sure you get the right size and if your fork is on the borderline choose the smaller size as to big may catch on the tyre. Super value for money! 03 March 2011
Blimey it works!! Looked at these for weeks getting a wet and muddy mush, checked out all the alternatives, not a fan of steerer tube mounted guards as I have had a lot of bad experiences with them. So it was either Crud Catcher or this (both would be a good combo, but not tried it yet). I am amazed at just how much this actually works, if you have any doubt try one, you won't be disappointed the only downside is the price but once you've had it for a while you'll forget about it. 01 March 2011
Great little product I have one of these on each of my mountain bikes and I see a lot of them out on the trails. There has to be a reason for the popularity of this product. This product does not replace a down-tube mounted mudguard, but it does stop mud from flicking forwards and up into your face. Easy to fit, Easy to clean. Make sure you pay attention to the size guide. My 100mm Sids take XS and my 150mm Fox forks take a S. 24 February 2011
Fantastic, but a bit costly I know you can use an old inner tube and cable ties to achieve the same results, but would you really want to bung that on an expensive set of Fox, Rockhsox etc. forks? I've now bought one of these for both my bikes as they look ok, and are fantastic at keeping all that mud and crud out of your face. Work a treat on wet roads too. Also I hate wearing cycling glasses as they're always misting up, but since having this on I've had so litle splatter on my face I've not had to wear them as much. Only downside is they seem a bit expensive for what is a chunk of neoprene and velcro, but as I went out in the snow and mud last Sunday and only got a face full of muck when I fell off, it's worth the cost 22 February 2011
Wrong Move I bought this at the same time as a new set of tyres. I went for 2.4" Nobbly Nics and then found that there isn't enough clearance between my tyres and Reba Race forks to fit the NeoGuard. For that reason I can't comment on the performance of the product but the quality of the material seems good although the printing isn't quite level. The price is far too much for what it is but it would depend on how much you value the performance. I have fitted it to my wife's bike for now but I can't see it getting used much! I will put it on my bike when I put my road tyres on and see how it helps the spray on a wet road. 20 February 2011
wow I can see again! I have ridden with this mounted to my forks in really muddy rainy weather and it works amazingly well. I have tried other products but this is the best one for stopping the spray getting in the face when riding fast in wet weather. Easy to fit and the size chart helped getting the correct one for my bike. (small fits the Fox 150mm talas for perfectly) 18 February 2011
mud guard i bought this item as i found it hard to find a decent front guard and this product has stopped over 80 % of the mud flip up and spray.it allso looks cool and dos not take any of the great looks away from my cube ams pro 100. 18 February 2011
It really works I ordered the xs size based on their size recommendation, however I use RockShox Recon and there is very little clearance between the fork and the tyre. When fitted the Neoguard rubbed so I had to cut away the bottom with the velcro straps and use cable ties. It still looked great and it really does work, I went on a ride round Bedgebury and it was very muddy, however I had only 1 or 2 spots of mud on my face unlike my friends who did not use a Neoguard. A top quality product yet a simple idea that really works !!! 18 February 2011
Simple and effective Simple design, easy to fit and does what it says. Keeps most of the mud, spray and grit out of your face. Washes easy too - top product. 04 February 2011
Mud Off Looks awesome, lightweight, doesnt get soggy at all' very durable & certainly does the job. The only cons I can say are that in the thickest clay mud I have to release the bottom straps to allow the mud to clear as it does pile up. I have even used a 2nd one as a mudguard to my Genius Shock fits perfectly & now prevents the mud from dumping onto of it. 27 January 2011
splash guard you know when its one of those days its raining hard all the water and mud flying up into the face you cant see where you are going well dont dispare rapidracer neoguard stops 99% of that its great product and for the price just try it its great 18 January 2011
A stroke of genius Many people create themselves imitations of these out of tyres or inner tubes to save money, but ultimately end up buying one of these. They really work to stop water and mud thrown forwards by the front wheel ending up in your face. I find they also stop grit and things being thrown up into your eyes in the summer. The only problem is that mine seemed to be too big for the size stated. 16 January 2011
excellent quality excellent product and quality used soon as it arrived excellent price and delivery as always 03 January 2011
Dose exactly what it says on the tin what else is there to say Very good 14 December 2010
Great Buy Quite simply a great buy. With the ever increasing amount of mud on the trails I finally decided to get a NeoGuard, having seem how effective they were on friend's bikes. Only (small) issue is that the sizing chart recommended a Small for my 110mm gap and I think an XS would have been a better fit. Very happy with the product ... does exactly what they say on the tin. 10 December 2010
have recentley fitted this product to my down hill iron horse with boxer forks and found the large one to be a little to large so check the size guide ane think about the smaller option. other than that really good 05 December 2010
RapidRacer NeoGuard I have bought a considerable number of high spec products to improve the ride on my mountain bike. A smooth ride on a light bike is nothing if you can't see the trail ahead. The winter month temperatures combined with your body heat tend to fog your glasses especially on the slower parts of your ride. This simple piece of neoprene means you can ride without the need for glasses (all the time) and without fear of catching a large lump of mud in your eye. Very easy to fit, different sizes to fit your forks, and machine washable. Pound for pound this is the best value product I have bought, if you don't have one on your bike whilst out riding this winter, you should! 24 November 2010
I can now see where I am going in the wet This product works. Buy one but ensure you get the right size to fit your forks. 10 November 2010
Great product This is a great product It really keeps the mud off you face :) 09 November 2010
It satisfies it. There is retractility, and detaching is also easy. Because it is also possible to wash even if dirty, it satisfies it. 23 October 2010
Almost perfect One of those ideas that's so simple, yet so effective. Wish I'd had one of these years ago. 07 October 2010
great purchase A very simple cure for that age old problem of mud being slung off the front wheel and heading straight for your face 24 September 2010
Does Not Work I fitted this to my trek fuel out on the trail. It was obvious after a few yards that it was never going to work. It caught on the tyre although this may be due to the large tyres I am running. Unfotunately I could not return it ad it was covered in Welsh mud! 21 July 2010
Get one If you do XC, downhill, freeride get one of these mudguards, if I was asked what bit of kit I have bought this year that has made the difference to my riding, then this has to be it. No more mud or whatever flying into your face. Couple it with a Crud Catcher Front Mudguard and you will have to apply your own mud pack. 03 May 2010
Simple but effective I purchased this due to the oversize frame on my Scott MC40, quick to fix to the forks and amazingly effective. Plenty of room for the adjustable fork range and very discreet too. BUY THIS PRODUCT, YOU WILL NOT BE DISAPPOINTED 21 April 2010
Just the Job Does exactly what it says on the tin. Not cheap but it saves pressure washing your teeth after a muddy ride. Make sure you get the right size for your forks. 26 March 2010
Works well, looks OK As a way to stop water/muck/sheep effluent etc being thrown in front of your bike ready for your face to go through it a millisecond later it works very well. Combine with a downtube mounted "crud" type guard and it seems to stop 90% of liquid. 08 March 2010
I have crud catchers fitted to my bike but was always getting my face covered at speed. This stops that and it works really well. Sure you could use an old inner tube to do the same job but it wouldn't look as good would it. Get one if you want to see where you are going at speed. 19 February 2010

Answer:Probably not unless your cyclocross bike has suspension or if you have a fork bridge/brace below the top of the legs then it would possbily fit. Needs something to attach to below the crown and above the wheel.

Additional information about Oggy could not be loaded.
Answer:I don't see how it would fit to a rigid fork as it needs to stretch between the fork brace and around the crown. Rigid forks don't have a brace.
On a cyclocross, you'd be better off with a fork mounted guards similar to those you'd put on a road bike. Something like the sks chromoplastic guards. Guys I know who ride cyclocross use these.

Answer:My rear mudguard is currently jerry rigged bits of bedroll, works well. I imagine something similar could be zip tied to rigid forks in about the same place as the neoguard to achieve the same function. Might not be pretty, and might wear out faster, but inexpensive.

Answer:No, you need a suspension front fork for it to attach too. For that reason it won't fit on rigid mtb forks either.

Now that the 2014 World Cup is over, its time to move on…and write about the 2022 World Cup (sorry 2018 World Cup, I promise I'll catch up with you later). The 2022 tournament is currently scheduled to occur in Qatar. I say currently because allegations of rampant bribery in connection with Qatar's bid to host the tournament may find FIFA moving the tournament elsewhere, most likely to Australia or the United States. But assuming FIFA maintains its traditional stance towards bribery and corruption–i.e. doing absolutely nothing about it–the tournament will likely go forward in Qatar in eight years' time.
And when it does Qatar, like all host nations, will receive an automatic bid into the 32-team tournament. This isn't a big deal when a country like Brazil plays host because their team would have qualified anyway. When we're talking about a country smaller than Connecticut that is covered mostly in sand and has no real soccer history to speak of, things get a little dicier because the last thing anyone wants to see is some overmatched host country get destroyed in front of the entire world (insert your own joke about Brazil's performance here).
As the New York Times recently reported, Qatar has turned to Africa to help bolster its team. According to Qatari officials, the nation has recruited talented but unknown African teenage players to move to Qatar to train against the Qataris who hope to represent Qatar in the 2022 World Cup. In exchange, the players are given room, board, access to state of the art practice facilities and coaching, and $5,000 to send back to their families in Africa each year. The Qatari officials explained that the competition presented by the African players would raise the play of the Qataris, hopefully to a level where they could compete against the world's best by 2022. Anyone who is not a Qatari official saw exactly what was going on–Qatar was going to move these promising African players to Qatar at a young age, naturalize them as Qatari citizens, then trot out a team of African-born, Qatari-trained players for the 2022 World Cup.
Critics have decried Qatar's "exploitation" of the African teenagers it has recruited over the last few years and pushed for rules that would prevent Qatar from continuing its plan. This struck me as an odd position. There is no evidence that these players or their families were forced to do anything against their will. Rather, they simply accepted an offer they believed would be beneficial to them. Conceptually, I don't see this as any different than a college football player from Minnesota who decides to play for Florida State because Florida State has an exceptional program, a lawyer from Missouri who works in Dubai because it pays three times as much, or an Australian who decides to move to rural Wisconsin because…hey Mom, why did you ever do that?
I certainly recognize the problems associated with human trafficking, especially when the people involved come from third-world countries. But in this case where everything appears to be on the up-and-up (except for the issue of whether these African players should be considered "Qatari" enough to play for its national team), I don't have a problem with it. These kids and their families were given an opportunity that they otherwise would not have had at home and they decided to take advantage of it. Sounds like one of the perks of globalization to me.

Here in DPE we love to get together with other developers and code. It is a great way to learn new technologies and have a lot of fun doing it.
So last weekend's hackathon with Facebook and Microsoft wasn't really out of the ordinary — but we're pretty excited about the results.
After some nice work by both teams getting Facebook Login running on Windows and Windows Phone in the early fall — it was time to sit down with developers and crank out some code enabling socially connected Windows and Windows Phone apps. So on Jan. 17 about 75 people were greeted by developers from both companies at Facebook's headquarters in Menlo Park.
Facebook's Peter Yang kicked it off by explaining how the Facebook Login can improve the monetization and conversion rate for your app.
As you can see in the following video, Dhiren Patel gave a broad overview of the architecture of the Facebook Login, and provided some best practices on using it to maximize the chances of users logging into the app. He also highlighted the differences between the Windows Phone 8 and Windows Store Facebook Login technologies.
Sanjeev Dwivedi from my team covered the opportunity offered by the Windows and Windows Phone platforms and then walked everyone step-by-step through using the Facebook Login within Windows and Windows Phone apps.
As well, Nokia's Paras Wadhera talked about Nokia's DVLUP program, which offers a variety of benefits to developers who are building Windows Phone applications. When the talks concluded, the floor was opened for people to get cranking on building their apps.
There was a good mix of developers with various skill levels, all the way from people who were novices to Windows and Windows Phone to those who were longtime, hard-core systems developers. As the evening progressed, it was great to see developers building applications solo, or collaborating with perfect strangers to form a team. And with about an hour into the hackathon, people were heads down on hacking.
When finished, all the teams presented their apps, and here are just a few of the interesting apps that we created:
This was a great time, and we hope we'll get a chance to code with you at a future event. In the meantime, keep hacking and building great apps!

Morning ladies,
Nasomatto Pardon
Amouage Epic Man.
I don't know much about medicine, but I know what I like. -- S.J. Perelman
Grogeous sample that's just arrived from TPC - Keiko Mecheri's Attar. Think I may have to buy an FB. Strictly for rose maniacs like me.
Good Morning,
Its Friday. Hooray!
Musc Ravageur for me today.
Best to all.
Rive Gauche Pour Homme Intense
Guerlain Samsara
Hi all. For synch Friday (an ornate scent) I'm going with Cacharel LouLou. A utilitarian bottle carrying a complex heady scent - part oriental, part floral, part gourmand, with a rough undertone. Cheap as chips too. What's not to like?
Belated congratulations to Quarry and Mr Q for your anniversary yesterday. Hope you had a lovely day.
Have a good Friday all.
Good morning! Have a fine Friday!
Le Parfum de Therese by Edmond Roudnitska, from a sample.
G The La Pavoni machine is great actually. The ritual of filling, tamping, fixing, twisting, pulling levers and turning cogs to open steam valves to froth milk can be really satisfying. Great when you have your pals round. But what a palaver when you just want a coffee!! Yeesh! Think I am going to have a Nespresso one right enough Push a button, et voila!

Happy Anniversary Week to Sir and Madam Quarry
Continuing my research of Lyric Woman...also fits nicely into the synch theme today, imo.
"Like a lobster with a pearl in its claw, the beet held the jasmine firmly without crushing or obscuring it. Beet lifted jasmine, the way a bullnecked partner lifts a ballerina, and the pair came on stage on citron's fluty cue. As if jasmine were a collection of beautiful paintings, beet hung it in the galleries of the nose, insured it against fire or theft, threw a party to celebrate it. Citron mailed the invitations." Jitterbug Perfume by Tom Robbins p. 189
What I am loving right now: Shalimar vintage extrait, Chanel Bois des Iles, Chanel no. 22, Le Labo Iris 39, Guerlain Iris Ganache
A belated but heartfelt Happy Anniversary to the Quarries!
Jon - that's wonderful news, thanks for letting us know!
SOTD is L'Artisan Parfumeur Nuit de Tubereuse
Wish you all a happy Friday!
"I felt something so intense, I could only express it in a perfume." - Jacques Guerlain
Synching today as promised in Bois d'Encens by Armani Prive. Only 1 use left in the sample at a guess so going to have to bite the bullet and purchase as I adore it so much
Will be in Paul Smith Rose this evening... Ornate again on account of the packaging and printing

Good morning, good smelling people!
The end of my sample of Neil Morris Storm. It is raining today and this smells so good. I am torn between this and SSS To Dream for a FB. They aren't similar but they sort of fill the same category in my wardrobe, I love them both. It may hinge on who does a sale first.
Good morning!
Petruccijc, how is the Turquoise, with the turpentine top note? I've always wanted to try that one.
For sync Friday I'm joining Devilcat in LouLou.
Top notes: Bergamot, black currant buds, green leaves, marigold, mandarin
Middle notes: Jasmine, heliotrope, mimosa, tiare, ylang ylang
Base notes: Tonka bean, incense, iris, musk, vanilla, sandalwood

Good evening friends. I wore Violet Blond Blond this morning and I'm in narcosis inducing spray amounts of N'Aimez Que Moi Parfum extrait. The boutique doesn't have Extrait in stock, only the EDP and spray tester of the extrait.
As promised here are pictures from my brother in law's future wife's back yard lol. It's an hour and a half north of Dubai in case anyones interested.
I had intended on taking more and better pictures but , alas , even though my car is an all wheel drive , it's not the kind that can climb sand dunes.
My brother in law was so shy, thinking about it now, my constant teasing may have caused some of the shyness, lol.*
Mr.camel basking in the *rays of the setting *sun.
And just for fun, a silhouette of Dubai city skyline. That's Burj Khalifa, tallest man made structure in the world.
I am wearing L'Heure Bleue today in respect to jujy54. She and FrouFrou have had to face the loss of family members this past week. Hugs to all in need.
If I had to chose my most ornate scent for Friday sync, it would 24 Faubourg, but I wasn't in the mood for it today anyway. It is definitely full of notes, volume, phases, and fringed with sillage.
Warm thanks to anniversary good-wishers. You guys are as sweet as American chocolate. Kumquat, your quarry reference is especially appreciated and put a smile on my face!
Welcome waves to cestrum nocturnum ... and anybody else I've missed.
While it's TGIF for many of you, it's the start of a new work cycle for me as three customers have erupted into demand mode. Now, can I maintain my Kindle Zen or will I fall back into a harried mindset? Sister PerfumedLady, is there an app for that?
Hedonist, your photos continue to slay me. What a beautiful landscape. And I love the new measurement: "Narcosis-inducing spray amounts."
In a world where 6 million people are added each month, every landscape matters.
Great pics Hedonist! Thanks for sharing those.
Chanel 31 rue Cambon for today, a few more sprays than usual for work, so I'm loving the smell of myself today.
Most likely not in synch, but maybe close.
SotE - Bond No 9 Bleecker Street.
Great pics Hedonist!!!
Wall Street by Bond No.9

L'Heure Bleue seems right for today...
in sync with
with a few extra sprays. hehe
Wearing Molinard Nirmala.
(((Hugs))) to Jujy, FrouFrou, and to those who are mourning Theo Angelopoulos. I was going to wear L'Heure Bleue, too, but I haven't gotten around to it. I must have set aside at least ten decants that would work for today's scent sync, but I'm just not in the mood for "ornate". Maybe later this evening. At the moment I'm wearing some very neroli'ish/cologny scent from a mystery decant. I don't know what it is but I like it. I've been trying to get the jumble of fragrances in my linen closet organized today.
Hedonist they are envy inducing photographs again. Especially as today it was cold and raining slush in Yorkshire with the cross Pennines roads closed due to snow already with more due.
Good Evening,
I am joining in the unofficial, l'heure bleue mini-synch tonight. For the occasion, I've dug out a sample of some vintage EdC that a generous soul sent me a while back.
Thank you *Dora* for the clip.
Best wishes to those mourning the passing of loved and admired ones.
Thanks for these fantastic pics, hedonist. The skyline, sunset and the pic itself is a stunner!!! Looks great to me on this icy cold evening... all ovens at full service... house twin with hedonist (they shall get a baccharat fountain for you, hedonist!) in Tabac Blond. Funny, not having worn it for two weeks, it always seems we have to re-arrange our relationship from scratch after an absence! But falling in love anew is fun
I'm wearing Haiku by Avon now.
Yuzu, pomegranate, fig, lily, muguet, jasmine, tonka bean, sandalwood, musk
I love the camel!
Today it's 40s and rainy here-- a bit raw but still quite mild for January. The snow is all gone.
I'm wearing Bois de Paradis. I bought this bottle a couple of years ago at Aedes, loved the scent, but found it overwhelming to spray on. It more or less sat in my fridge unused the past few years.
Finally last week I bought some more 1 ml steel rollerballs from Accessories For Fragrances so I could decant my heavy hitters into them, and dab instead of spraying. Dabbed on wrists and base of throat, I can finally enjoy Bois de Paradis.
Also into the rollerballs went my decant of Carnal Flower, Coriandre (parfum), Une Rose, Wrappings, YSL Paris, Ambre Soie and Amouage Gold. My husband used one for his decant of Amouage Tribute.
The advantage of these tiny rollerballs is that even though skin cells accumulate inside the perfume (as with any rollerball scent), you use it up fairly quickly and can clean it before refilling with more of the same scent.

Happy Friday Everyone!
Hedonist, great pics again! I love that adorable camel!!!
Thanks for the welcome, Quarry! This is such a lovely group, I do so appreciate the kindness.
I didn't know about synch Fridays, but I am wearing vintage Caleche, which is rather more interesting than the new version, though not exactly ornate!
Alfarom, I meant to say earlier that I love, love, love that bottle.
Hedonist, I'm a fan of Mr. Camel, too. What are the animals in the enclosure behind him? Could they be emus?
Camels, Violet Blonde and Dubai - oh my! It looks HOT - it was warm here in Miami too. Not the best weather to be rockin a multi-layered, floral attar IMO, but I pulled it off nicely.
Now, all of you ladies got me in the mood to wear L'Heure Bleue tonight. Hmm...
For now, I have the very last drops of this all over my arms:
Violet Blonde by Tom Ford
The top notes make my mouth salivate, they smell so much like violet candied mints. I need a bottle. Yep.

I am wearing Infini.
I was wearing PG Cadjmere during the day, and it has been TDC Jasmin de Nuit tonight.
Lauder for Men tonight. THIS is nice!
These things cannot be long hidden: the Sun, the Moon, the Truth--Buddha
I'm wearing Angel today.
I've trademarked the color bleu
Don't even now what the theme for the sync was, started in Sample B, finishing in Mauboussin.
Loved the pictures, Hedonist. Agree with L. about your personal baccarat fountain. We, in our Winter Wonderland, would like more pictures of how everybody lives.

Organization and Officers
The Washington College Academy of Lifelong Learning (WC-ALL) was formed in 1992 by a group of interested residents of the Chestertown area with the active encouragement of the College administration. It is designed to provide non-credit courses for continuing education and to act as an interface between the College and the Community. The concept of peer education as it developed in the Elderhostel Institute Network is a main feature of its organization, although WC-ALL is not a part of that network.
Washington College recognizes WC-ALL as a non-credit educational program consistent with its own educational objectives and provides WC-ALL with office and classroom space. The Academy is an autonomous organization, however, that is supported by its own membership fees and contributions, and has its own governance. It operates within the general policy rules observed by the College, and its status is determined by the College's status as a non-profit educational institution.
WC-ALL is governed by a Council of directors elected by the membership, with directors serving for a three-year term, for a maximum of two consecutive terms. A senior official in the College Administration is also member of the Council. The election of Council members occurs at WC-ALL's annual meeting in May.
All who participate in the activities of the Academy are volunteers. Instructors receive an honorarium for their services. Funds in excess of the support needs of WC-ALL activities are earmarked for scholarships for Washington College students.

As some of you may know, I'm a web designer. I'm not the best at icons/logos, and therefore I require some assistance. A friend of mine wanted me to design a logo for his video production outfit. If you could, please take a look at the logo and let me know what you think. Thanks.
Hi, I like the idea behind the logo. My suggestion would be to use the coffee mug and saucer but add your own creativity to it. I know that it's commonly used, but the bean just doesn't stand out enough. Maybe a coffee mug with a pile of coffee beans in it or a box with a pile of beans in and the logo coffee box on the box or you could just give the bean more details…. Just some ideas.
Like the font – like the bean – it says more than a cup of coffee would anyway. Less is more – almost every time when your talking about logos. What I don't like: colors – and the bean shape itself – you could remove that "shine" line, that in my opinion is totally useless. Also the distance between the elements is a bit off I think – the text should be moved a little downward.
That's about it for now… hope it helps.

This unusually action-oriented addition to Telegame's successful "Ultimate" line for GBA features generic versions of familiar games from the arcade's Golden Age. The included games, titled "Asteroid Mine," "BeeKeeper," "ChipBot," "FlipSide," "Galaxy Hero," "Gridlock," "Highway 51," "Merchant Galactic," "Milk Run," "Omega Force," "Rubes Cubes," and "Treasure Hunter," each play within the realm of a familiar coin-op genre. For extra fun with the theme, the games allow high-scorers to enter their initials, and the cartridge records statistics concerning which games are played, how much time is spent on each game, and how many medals have been earned.

My cousin and I are still trying to unravel the story of my 3rd great-grandfather. Family legend says that he was a Cherokee Indian that was given to a White family as an infant. He was raised by that family in Ohio, enlisted in the Civil War, and eventually settled in Illinois. Our next step will likely be D.N.A. testing to see if the legend of his Cherokee heritage is true.
Delighted beyond words. Kim [kimstankiewicz] treated my family as her own. Highly recommended and very pleased. THANKS KIM!

It looks like the sagging automobile industry will cost more Norwalk residents their jobs.
Pat Norris said the Norris Auto Mall in Medina, a dealership in Norwalk and two dealerships in Burbank, Ohio, are all for sale. Though no official number of layoffs has been released, it is estimated 25 to 30 people worked for the Norwalk dealership, which sold Chevrolet, Chrysler, Pontiac, Cadillac, Dodge, GMC, Jeep, Hyundai and Buick vehicles.
Norris told the Plain Dealer he is looking at several options, including the sale of all dealerships, the sale of one or two locations or staying on as part of a partnership.
Though the auto industry is clearly not booming, we hope someone can come in and find a way to preserve the Norwalk dealership and, more importantly, the 25 to 30 people it employs.
While it is bad enough that jobs could be lost, the abrupt end to the dealer's run in Norwalk will leave a bitter taste. The sudden slamming of its doors was a surprise to city leaders, as no one from the company reached out for help. The lot was cleaned out over the weekend and that was that. Now few employees remain, just trying to "tie up loose ends."
Norwalk Mayor Sue Lesch said if someone from the company had been upfront with them, the city could have gotten Job and Family Services on the case.
"It's certainly a shame for the community and the employees when they don't get a fair notice," she said.
The best way to remedy the situation would be for another dealer to buy the lot and rehire all the employees. That might be nothing more than a pipe dream. We will all just have to wait and see.

Dust Storm in Texas
April 24, 2013
The same weather system that brought snow and ice to the American Midwest just after Thanksgiving 2005 also kicked up significant dust in western Texas and eastern Mexico. The winds associated with this cold front also fanned the flames of grass fires in the region, adding smoke to the mixture of aerosols. The Moderate Resolution Imaging Spectroradiometer (MODIS) flying onboard the Aqua satellite captured this image on November 27, 2005. In this image, the most obvious dust cloud is a pale beige dust plume swirling through Texas and Mexico. However, a second, more orange-colored cloud of dust blows across northern Texas. And in New Mexico, a bright white patch of ground—White Sands, New Mexico—is giving off a streamer of dust that blows southeast. According to TimesRecordNews.com, the temperature change from this cold front was extreme, and such big temperature changes often mean severe winds. Parts of northern Texas saw wind speeds around 100 kilometers per hour (60 miles per hour). Resulting dust storms reduced visibility to just 4 kilometers (2.5 miles) in some areas, and swamped local fire departments with calls regarding both fires and downed power lines.

Djokovic Starts Quest For Fourth Miami Crown; Plays Mayer In Third Round
Miami, U.S.A.
by ATP Staff|
Three-time former champion Novak Djokovic overcame Jeremy Chardy on Friday 6-4, 6-3 at the Sony Open Tennis as he started his quest to capture a second Indian Wells-Miami title double. Last week's BNP Paribas Open winner will next challenge No. 30 seed Florian Mayer, who defeated Ivan Dodig 6-3, 6-2 in 66 minutes.
Djokovic won both ATP World Tour Masters 1000 titles at Indian Wells and Miami in 2011. Seven players have achieved back-to-back success at the tournaments, including Jim Courier (1991), Michael Chang (1992), Pete Sampras (1994), Marcelo Rios (1998), Andre Agassi (2001), Djokovic (2011) and Roger Federer (2005-06) – who is the only player to have done it twice.
"It's obviously different conditions that I'm playing in here in Miami [compared to] from Indian Wells," said Djokovic. "So that's why the first matches are always tricky."
Second seed Djokovic served for the set at 5-3, but was broken by Chardy. He responded immediately, with a break to love, to clinch the 41-minute opener having committed 13 unforced errors. Chardy required treatment for a right ankle injury after Djokovic broke for a 5-3 lead in the second set. The encounter lasted 85 minutes.
"It's a straight-sets win, and when I was supposed to play my best and come up with some good serves and good shots, that's what I did in both sets," Djokovic said. "[That's] what matters the most to me."

Watch Live Online | TV Schedule | Buy Tickets
The 26-year-old Djokovic has a 27-5 record at Crandon Park, venue of the ATP World Tour Masters 1000 hard-court tournament. He took home the silverware in 2007 (d. Canas), 2011 (d. Nadal) and 2012 (d. Murray). This week, he is bidding to capture the 43rd trophy of his career.
Indo-Pak Express Surge Into Second Round
No. 7 seeds Rohan Bopanna and Aisam-ul-haq Qureshi defeated the Italian duo of Simone Bolelli and Fabio Fognini 6-3, 6-2 to advance to the second round in Miami. Qureshi is eyeing a title defence after prevailing alongside Jean-Julien Rojer last year.
The Indo-Pak Express will next face the Colombian tandem of Juan Sebastian Cabal and Robert Farah after the Rio de Janeiro champions outlasted Marcel Granollers and Marc Lopez 1-6, 6-4, 12-10 in a Match Tie-break.
Also moving into the second round on Friday were third-seeds Ivan Dodig and Marcelo Melo, 1-6, 6-1, 10-5 winners over Julian Knowle and Vasek Pospisil, and the all-American duo of Ryan Harrison and Jack Sock. Harrison and Sock defeated countrymen Deiton Baughman and Martin Redlicki 7-5, 6-4.

Canopic Jars
There are one hundred Canopic Jars scattered across the Red Light District in Festival of Blood. Though most of them can be found on the map below, three are in the underground Catacombs which have no accessible map. We've detailed their locations as well.
Jar Locations
Catacomb - Jar Locations
Jar #1
When you enter the Catacombs in "The Barbed Cross" the Canopic Jar should be on the floor directly in front of you.
Jar #2
Still following the trail of the thieving Firstborn in "The Barbed Cross" mission you should come to a point in the Catacombs where you need to jump up to a secondary level. Once up there you'll be attacked by a trio of Vampires. Immediately following this you'll come to a ladder at the base of which is a Canopic Jar.
Jar #3
During the "Secrets" mission you'll enter the Catacombs. As you near the end of the Catacombs on your way to the Coven Room you should see a Canopic Jar on the right hand side of the tunnel.

Assembly Bill (AB) 327 took effect in California at the first of the year, giving the California Public Utilities Commission (CPUC) authority to expand the State's 33% Renewable Portfolio Standard (RPS). This week, the CPUC extended its RPS proceeding to determine, before February 2015, how to implement the new law. AB 327 provides that the CPUC may require the State's investor-owned utilities to procure renewable energy in excess of 33%, but the law does not mandate an expansion of the RPS. As the utilities have almost filled their procurement needs to meet the 33% requirement, the market for utility-scale renewable projects in California will likely continue to shrink without an expanded RPS. The CPUC's ruling left the scheduling of the work to implement AB 327 to the assigned ALJs and Commissioner. We will be alert for opportunities to participate in the CPUC's further proceedings to implement AB 327. In the short term, there is an opportunity to comment on the CPUC's consideration of the Renewable Auction Mechanism (RAM) program. Any comments are due January 30th. The fifth, and presently last-scheduled, RAM auction is to occur no later than June 2014. Expect a Proposed Decision from the CPUC on the fate of the RAM in 2Q 2014.

'Birdman' Trailer: Michael Keaton is Losing His Mind and It Looks Great
The new 'Birdman' trailer only confirms what we thought after the first preview from a few months ago: this is going to be one of the strangest movies of 2014 and we can't wait to see it. Not only does it feature the great Michael Keato
'Into the Woods' Trailer: The Beloved Musical Gets a Non-Musical Sneak Peek
'Into the Woods' isn't just Disney's big Christmas Day release this year and it isn't just one of the more impressive ensembles assembled for a fantasy film. It's the long-awaited big-screen version of Stephen Sondheim's beloved musical of the same name ... which makes it all the more baffling that the first 'Into the Woods' trailer does everything in its power to hide the fact that this movie is a musical. There is not a single sung word in all 107 seconds.
The Wrap Up: New 'Into the Woods' Photos Show Off a Crazy Cast
ScreenCrush wraps up the latest in movies and TV you might have missed. Today, new images from 'Into the Woods' are revealed, James Gunn teases 'Guardians of the Galaxy 2,' and Simon Pegg plays coy with those 'Episode 7' rumors.
Jamie Foxx Will Play Mike Tyson in a New Biopic
Mike Tyson is one of the most controversial and bizarre figures to emerge out of the sports world in the past few decades, so it's not surprising that a biopic about his life is finally being made. What is slightly surprising is the amount of talent backing the project. Oscar-winner Jamie Foxx signed on to play the former boxing heavyweight champion and Terrence Winter, fresh off an Oscar nomination for writing 'The Wolf of Wall Street,' is set to pen the script.
The Wrap Up: Zoe Saldana Chats About the 'Avatar' Sequels
ScreenCrush wraps up the latest in movies and TV you might have missed. Today, Zoe Saldana talks about the lengthy shoot for the 'Avatar' sequels, 'Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles' releases a very unfortunate poster, and a key 'Die Hard' actor passes away.
The Wrap Up: Quentin Tarantino Confirms 'The Hateful Eight,' Teases a Science-Fiction Idea
ScreenCrush wraps up the latest in movies and TV you might have missed. Today, Quentin Tarantino confirms his next project, 'The Jungle Book' casts two noteworthy actors, and Homer Simpson himself appears at Comic-Con.

'Game of Thrones' Season 5: Why George R.R. Martin Won't Be Involved Much
One of the reasons fans of the original books have been so cool with the major deviations 'Game of Thrones' made from the novels has been the direct involvement of author George R.R. Martin. As a producer and writer on the series, he's been present to give his blessing to the showrunners and wag his fingers at aggressive fans, but not this year. Martin will be sitting out 'Game of Thrones' season 5 altogether to finish writing the sixth book in the series, 'The Winds of Winter.'
'Sin City 2′ Red Band Trailer: Black and White and Red All Over
With all of the big news coming out of Comic-Con this year, Robert Rodriguez and Frank Miller's 'Sin City: A Dame to Kill For' seemed to get lost in the shuffle. Perhaps that's why the extended red band trailer that played in Hall H has made its way online, giving us our best look yet at the decade-in-the-making sequel.
Weekend Box Office Report: 'Lucy' Takes Down the Mighty 'Hercules'
This weekend saw two movies named after their lead characters go head-to-head. In one corner, you have 'Lucy.' In the other, 'Hercules.' If you asked the average person who would win in a battle between Dwayne Johnson and Scarlett Johansson, most would probably side with the guy whose nickname is "The Rock." But the box office this weekend went in a completely different direction.

Who we are
Just Gene Therapy has been established by Rosie Barnes in conjunction with Professor Eric Alton and the UK CF Gene Therapy Consortium (see www.cfgenetherapy.org.uk) to raise funds for the continuation of the gene therapy research programme for cystic fibrosis (CF).
Gene therapy for CF
There has been considerable research into gene therapy for CF since the faulty gene which causes CF was identified in 1989. It has now reached the stage where a potentially effective product is in a double blind randomised multi-dose trial. Other gene therapy products are almost certain to be needed, to improve efficacy and to benefit more patients.
Latest news
The Wave 1 clinical trial (CF gene delivered by liposomes (fat)) is now complete. Results are being analysed and the findings will be announced at the North American CF Conference, being held this year in Atlanta on 9-11 October. An update will be posted here afterwards, once it is available.
"The Wave 2 product (CF gene delivered by a virus) is now progressing rapidly. … Following discussion with the regulatory agencies we are now embarking on a formal 16 month toxicology programme and aim to be in a first human clinical study in early in 2017."
—Professor Eric Alton, UK CF Gene Therapy Consortium
For more information, see the UK CF Gene Therapy Consortium site page.
To ensure more progress can be made, further funding will be needed to take Wave 2 through to clinical trials.

Step 7. A new feature called Panorama adds a twist to bookmarking. You can create groups of tabs for visiting later. This helps keep the tabs area clutter-free and organised. Tap the icon on the right of the tab bar, then choose Tab Groups. This will display all your open tabs and let you organise them in different ways.
Step 8. To form a new group, drag any tab out of the main group and drag other tabs on top of it. To leave Panorama mode, simply click on a tab. The tab and all its associated tabs will launch, but none of the others will. To open another tab group, re-enter Panorama mode and select a new tab.

I love a good project recipe and this one did not disappoint. The texture was superior to our usual pre-cured brand, and the spice mix had a more interesting flavor. Am betting the leftovers will make terrific hash!
Excellent I'll never buy a store bought corned beef again. I cut down the the dry brine step to 5 days as well. Next time I'll try the 10 days.
My first time making house-cured corned beef, and this recipe was fantastic! I only brined the briskets (I did two 5-pound briskets) for 5 days, then the dry rub for 5 days, due to time constraints, but the result was superb! I will be doing this method again.

Our Bayou, Prairie and Forest are awesome outdoor classrooms where hands-on learning is inspired by nature. Come join us by signing up for one of our many activites and let ABNC inspire you to get outdoors!
Visit this astonishingly beautiful part of the Texas Gulf Coast and "reconnect with nature". Become aware of how Armand Bayou Nature Center (ABNC), nestled in the Clear Lake Area, is working to preserve the wetlands prairie, forest and marsh habitats surrounding Armand Bayou. Visitors can learn about our plant and animal inhabitants, bird-watch, hike on the Nature Center's trails or view our live animal displays of snakes, alligators, turtles, hawks and bison. A visit to the Center's Martyn Farm will take you back in time to late 1800's farm life in Texas. Before you leave, make reservations to see the beauty of Armand Bayou on the "Bayou Ranger", an electric pontoon boat, or on a guided canoe tour. In order for ABNC to continue to preserve this "Natural Place", please consider becoming a member.
Preserve Watch
We are excited to announce a special new EcoExplorations program for adults which showcases the unique beauty and fragile ecology of this urban wilderness. These are "behind the scenes" adventures led by Stewardship Coordinator Mark Kramer. Each experience begins with a lecture in the Auditorium at ABNC and is followed by a field trip.
Show or Hide the Event Details
For over forty years ABNC has been a leader in preserving and restoring these vanishing habitats and now we'd like to share some of its most seldom seen areas and rare wildlife treasures with you. These behind the scenes adventures will deepen your appreciation for the richness of life that exists right here in your own backyard. Panoramic viewscapes, iconic apex predators and a spectacular assembly of nesting birds highlight the adventures.
The experience will begin with an introduction and lecture in the Auditorium and concludes with a field trip. Most activities last approximately 2-3 hours. Space is limited and reservations are required. Minimum age is 18.
Rookery Tours
Colonial nesting water birds occur along the length of the Texas coast. Every spring and summer these birds gather to raise their young, typically on nesting islands or within wetlands.

Approximately 2500-2700 km in Norway in 6 days on different, mostly small and badly damaged roads.
DR did fine, except that cheap bolt I used to tie gear lever on shaft snapped and I lost gear lever somewhere on German motorway 300 km from home. That'll teach me to watch what materials I use when working on bike. Replaced with more-less suitable gear pedal from Kawasaki dealrship nearby...lost 2 hours.
And another thing - for some reason this time my DR used a lot of oil for 5000 km. Was not the case right before, but before I did not ride it 2-up + 30 kg luggage for 5000 km. Not sure why. No smoke, no loss of power, no nothing...not sure where oil goes. Perhaps a lot of lane splitting in still traffic in Germany to blame. Now bike is at 86000+ km on the clock 10 000 + of which are mine. Going to monitor it a bit. Next time we will go straight to northern Norway as this time we rode lots of roads just up to halfway between Bergen and Trondheim. In a word: it was great and I like northern and mountain parts better than fjords.
Im very Jelious , would be cool to see some pics,
You didnt happen to change the brand of oil you used before you left.

Therapeutic horticulture gives people a sense of control and comfort. From what I can tell, it is partially because the brain can recognize certain patterns and repetition, which is easily and presently found in nature. Pattern is a system that is based in memory (Think of how children can pick up on memory/matching games with flashcards), and can help with healing processes of the mind. Pattern is also something that has been present in every culture, yet unique to each one. Here is an amazing experiment done with sand, and the vibrations of sound (this process is called Cymatics, a brief summary can be found here). The patterns correlate with so many things and nature, and a vivid reminder of how everything is so interconnected. Some of these patterns of sand can be seen on the shells of tortoise,and follow the rules of the golden ratio.
Be sure to turn the sound down before you watch the video...Some of the sounds can be really loud!!

A rule proposed by the U.S. Department of Labor would extend the protections of the Family and Medical Leave Act (FMLA) to all eligible employees in legal same-sex marriages regardless of where they live. The FMLA allows eligible employees to take protected unpaid leave for specific family and medical reasons.
A Department of Labor press release indicated that Secretary Thomas Perez proposed this rule in light of the U.S. Supreme Court's decision in United States v. Windsor, in which the court struck down the Defense of Marriage Act provision that interpreted "marriage" and "spouse" to be limited to opposite-sex marriage for the purposes of federal law.
The rule would change the FMLA definition of "spouse" so that an eligible employee in a legal same-sex marriage will be able to take FMLA leave for his or her spouse or family member regardless of the state in which the employee resides. This is in contrast to the current definition of "spouse" – which only applies to same-sex spouses who reside in a state that recognizes same-sex marriage. As such, the new rule would create FMLA eligibility based on the law of the place where the marriage was entered into. The Department of Labor indicated that the purpose behind this new rule is to allow all legally married couples, whether opposite-sex or same-sex, to have consistent federal family leave rights regardless whether the state in which they currently reside recognizes such marriages.
While the rule has only been proposed, all employers should revisit their FMLA policies and ensure that they are up to date and are ready to be revised to adapt to this rule when it is implemented.

BMW integrates GoPro action cam into its infotainment systems
By C.C. Weiss
June 18, 2014
Twisty roads through wooded forests, speed-optimized track laps, leisurely drives along the breezy coast – whatever your daily or weekend commute looks like, it might be the perfect subject for an HD video. BMW is making it easier to use the popular GoPro action camera to capture such driving moments. It has worked with GoPro to integrate camera control into its infotainment architecture.
In a move that it calls a "first ever," BMW is integrating GoPro control into its BMW Apps and Mini Connected systems by way of the GoPro iPhone app. The app pulls basic control from the GoPro hardware to the car's color display and iDrive controller. Drivers can mount a GoPro anywhere on the car, inside or out, and enjoy more intuitive control.
"GoPro is a natural fit for BMW enthusiast drivers," says Phil Johnston, head of BMW Group AppCenter USA. "The power and flexibility of the BMW Group App Integration Platform coupled with GoPro's advanced camera technology brings new, safe, and engaging experiences to the enthusiasts that were previously not possible. When the camera is connected to the car, it allows GoPro's app to present context-appropriate presets that allow the enthusiast to capture the perfect shot."
The driver can turn the camera on and off, start and stop recording, switch between video and photo modes, and select from six drive-specific camera modes: leisure driving facing out, night driving, sport driving facing out, drive camera facing in, winding road time lapse and straight road time lapse. The car's display shows the camera's battery life, remaining storage space and strength of its Wi-Fi connection. When the car is stopped, the screen displays a preview image, which the driver can use to reposition the camera for the best view.
Starting in July, BMW will be adding GoPro app compatibility to all 2012 and newer models with BMW Apps or Mini Connected. The app is designed for iPhone 4 and later and GoPro cameras equipped with Wi-Fi (Hero3+ and later). The iPhone, which is connected to the BMW by USB cable or snap-in adaptor, bridges the wirelessly connected GoPro and car's infotainment system. The updated GoPro app is available in the iTunes Store now.

With the growing 'sport' of faking accidents in order to claim on the insurance I would like to have a built in, i.e. not nickable, wide angle cameras mounted front and rear with the usual save instruction that keeps the previous few minutes in the event of someone throwing themselves at the car. (Watch YouTube videos for examples). This save function could even be automatic on detection of a significant lateral 'g' input into the vehicle, indicating a collision of some sort.
Such a system could also act to some extent as a 'black box' by recording speed etc. for use in court. I imagine that would reduce insurance premiums quite a bit. Whilst these BMW/GoPro cameras could record events, they have to be set up each time you start, unless you leave them stuck on the windscreen and like having to replace your door glass - and them - on a regular and frequent basis.Mel Tisdale

Sweden Industrial Output Unexpectedly Expands as Orders Rise
Dec. 10 (Bloomberg) -- Swedish industrial production unexpectedly rose in October, easing pressure on the central bank to cut interest rates this month.
Industrial production rose 0.5 percent in October, after declining a revised 4.2 percent the previous month, Stockholm-based Statistics Sweden said today. Production was estimated to be unchanged, according to the median forecast in a Bloomberg survey of nine economists. Output fell an annual 4.4 percent.
The central bank has signaled it may cut its benchmark rate later this month, after three reductions since last year to 1.25 percent. Swedish growth is slowing amid falling export demand from the debt-riddled euro area.
Industrial orders rose 1.6 percent in the month and were 2.1 percent lower in the year, Statistics Sweden said. Export orders rose 3.2 percent, while domestic orders fell 0.5 percent.

Cats require exercise for mind, body
There are many people who believe cats are the easiest pet to maintain and can pretty much live without much human interaction. However, cats are complex animals and have a long list of requirements to live long, happy and healthy lives.
Animal Services has three shelter cats who reside full time there. Harvey, Bubbles and Moxie have the staff well trained for their morning treats and games. They provide a great distraction to stressful days sometimes. As their caretakers, we try to keep their environment enriched so they don't get too bored.
Cats of the wild spend the majority of their day hunting, exploring and scavenging for food. Our domesticated household cats do not lead lives nearly that exciting. Living the life of Riley, lounging on couches and beds, does not make for a very exciting life. But there are some things we can do to add to our cat's enrichment.
First of all provide your cat with plenty of kitty-safe toys. Cats can be particular so it may take time to learn what type of toy your cat prefers. Some prefer toys they can toss around themselves. Others enjoy interactive toys their owners get to play with also. Toy that stimulate your cat's hunting instinct are always a hit.
Toys for our feline friends come in a huge assortment. Toys that hang on doors or walls, bounce around and that go in circles are just a few. Toys made of fuzzy feathers, real bird wings or tinsel can be enticing. Just be sure your cat cannot tear off pieces and ingest them. Be sure to rotate the toys to keep your cat's interest. I have a friend who rotates her pets' toys every Thursday. The current toys go up and new toys come out. These "new" toys aren't necessarily brand-new toys but ones that have been put up for a while.
There are even laser pointers designed with cats in mind. Use caution with those types of toys and do not shine the laser in your cat's eyes. It may do damage. Some owners may want to play with their dog with a laser toy also but be ever more careful since some dogs can get extremely obsessive and develop behavior issues. One of my first border collies quickly became obsessed with a laser toy, other shiny objects and all things red. It was definitely an unwanted behavior and one that took much time to extinguish. It only took a few play times to develop.
Next, be sure to provide items that your cat can explore. It doesn't have to be anything expensive. An empty cardboard box or even a paper sack will work. Our shelter cats love paper sacks. They can spend a lot of time jumping in and out and rolling around with a sack. Our shelter bunny also has a grand time with a paper sack. It's pretty cheap entertainment.
Cat condos can be made or bought at pet stores and have various levels where a cat can climb, hide or just sprawl out. Just make sure you supervise carefully and ensure that the object isn't a danger.
An aquarium with real fish or even fake ones can also provide hours of entertainment for a cat. If you choose to have live fish, make sure your cat is not able to access the fish themselves. Keep both your fish and cat safe.
Some cats also enjoy the commercial videotapes made especially for cats. These are hours of entertaining cat television such as close-ups of birds and fish.
If you have a backyard haven for birds, allow your cat to have a perch in the nearest window so that he can watch the birds feed and fly around your yard. Moxie has a special spot where she watches the birds in our flower beds every morning. She spends a lot of time "talking" to them and watching them hop around. Placing a feeder for squirrels, birds or hummingbirds in view of a window provides easy and cheap entertainment for your cat.
