It is always best to be sure the transmission control module has the latest software installed when any major transmission repair is performed.
2007 Volvo S60 Problem Reports
Most Reported 2007 Volvo S60 Problem Reports
It is not uncommon for the exterior light bulbs to burn out prematurely. No repair option has been reported other than replacing the failed bulb.
Front upper strut mounts may wear prematurely, resulting in loud noise from the front of the vehicle when going over bumps.
I have my 2006 Volvo s60 2.5t AWD serviced at the dealership per the recommended schedule in the Owner's Manual. Recently between the 37,500 and 45,000 mile service I noticed my "Coolant Level Low" light coming on about every 2 months but I park my car in a garage and have never seen any fluid leaking. I add the 50/50 coolant to the full level only to have to add it again in a few weeks. Today at my 45,000 service the Dealership tells me my ra...
The MAF sensors are prone to failing and turning on the Check Engine Light.
The anti-lock brake system (ABS) warning light and/or other dash warning lights may illuminate due to a failed ABS Control Module. Replacement of the failed module is generally required to correct this concern.
The upper engine mount may wear prematurely. Symptoms may include a harsh feeling when the transmission is shifting and roughness when the engine is idling. Worn engine mounts should be replaced as necessary.
The turbocharger return pipe seal may develop an oil leak. The leak can begin very small, but will eventually progress into a large leak. Our technicians recommend having this repaired at first signs of leakage.
Front and/or rear sway bar end links may wear out prematurely, causing a knocking noise from the front or rear of the vehicle when driving on bumpy roads. Our technicians recommend inspecting the links at each service, they should be replaced if any looseness is found.
Engine oil leaks from the PCV housing are common.
My 2007 S60 has had a few electrical problems that are quite costly. Last month the starter went out, before that it was the alternator. Today the key jammed and it will not turn all the way, car would not start.
Also, the seats are very uncomfortable during long trips and the turning radius on the car is very tight, parking and getting out of parking spaces is difficult. I love Volvos, this car will probably be my last one``

2003 BEST Furniture, Leather
The folks at Roche-Bobois take their leather very seriously. One sales associate advises massaging the surface with Lancôme moisturizer to keep it supple. "Of course," he says with a Gallic shrug, "baby oil works just as well." Just reclining on one of the buttery leather chaise longues or sprawling across a long, low-profile sofa can rouse a deep desire to stroke their skins. Roche-Bobois offers traditional designs that practically scream for a walnut-paneled library, as well as sparely streamlined contemporary numbers for the ultrachic loft. And the leathers come in a range of rich colors to match any room.

Top line feels it's still a work in progress
|10.01.10 at 11:30 am ET
BELFAST — The offensive lines, for all intents and purposes, seem to be just about set for when the Bruins begin the season next weekend against the Coyotes. Assuming nothing changes, the top line will be David Krejci between Milan Lucic and Nathan Horton, the second will feature Patrice Bergeron in the middle of Mark Recchi and Jordan Caron, Tyler Seguin will likely be in the middle of Michael Ryder and Blake Wheeler on the third line, and Gregory Campbell will center Daniel Paille and Shawn Thornton, with Brian McGrattan likely the 13th forward.
Time is running out for these lines to hit their stride and for players to get comfortable with one another. In Seguin's case, he's still picking up the little things needed to round out his game in his own end, plus there's the adjustment to a couple of new linemates in a new league.
Considering that each of the team's four lines has a newcomer on it, the line that has impressed most thus far in training camp has been that top line of Krejci, Lucic, and Horton. The former Panther in Horton has picked up a pair of goals so far in the preseason, and Krejci seems ready to shine as a No. 1 center. Factor in Lucic's aspirations to score at least 20 goals this season without losing his physical mentality, and the makings seem to be there for something special. Even with the promise shown, nobody is satisfied yet.
"I don't think we click together very well yet," Krejci said Friday. "I think we've had some good shifts, some good chemistry on some shifts, but I don't think we've brought it every shift. I believe that there is something and we're going to try to find it in each shift when we go out there."
Horton agreed. Though Seguin and Caron might not have gigantic expectations because of their age, Horton, 25, is expected to put up career numbers in his first season in Boston.
"I think we're getting better," Horton said. "Obviously, we need to get better, but we're just trying to work on things, getting used to each other's games. It will come, I think. We've got two more games to get ready for the regular season."
Asked if players can get by on talent alone in the preseason before having to show more cohesion with linemates when it counts, Krecji didn't feel the difference between an exhibition and a regular season game was substantial enough.
"It's not really much different than the [regular season] games," Krejci said. "Everybody works so hard, does the same things, but you've got to know how to use experience and buy some time. That's what happened when Horton scored that goal against Florida at home, so little things like that could help, and hopefully that's going to help us tomorrow and the first exhibition game in Czech. Then, hopefully we can carry it into regular season games."

Actor Anthony Mackie attend the Montblanc Madison Avenue store opening on October 22, 2013 in New York City. / Andrew Toth FilmMagic
Actor Anthony Mackie was arrested Saturday morning on two misdemeanor counts of suspicion of driving while intoxicated, reports AP. A criminal complaint says that Mackie, known for his roles in The Hurt Locker and Pain & Gain, had the smell of alcohol on his breath, bloodshot eyes and slurred speech.
The complaint also says Mackie told the officer he drank one beer, and he refused to take a Breathylyzer test..
He was pulled over in Harlem after police spotted him driving in a car with tinted windows.
Ironically, Mackie owns a bar in Brooklyn and is opening a second one next year.

Riding in Tuscany
View Single Post
Tuscan rider
Joined: Jun 2007
Location: Tuscany, Italy
Oddometer: 3,229
Day 4 Monday; Taormina - Noto (Sicilia)
(note the scale in the lower right-hans corner; it is different from the maps added for the previous days)
After the first day here in Sicilia that didn't go so well, the bitter cold combined with bad planning made the afternoon feel completely wasted, we woke up to new possibilities. I, for my part, was (secretly) happy. This thing is that Capa della Famiglia has problem with a hip. Thus there are two things she dislikes: Walking around for hours looking at things, and getting on and off the bike. The result is that when we arrive some place it is unlikely that I can manage to drag her around more than a few blocks. Second, there will be few pictures featuring the bike.
When I ride alone, part of the fun is to get off the bike, check if it will become a nice shot, move the bike a little, ride to the other side, and so on. With her that is not an option. Thus, there are less photos than what I usually hav in my reports.
For those who remember how Day 3 ended, we were cold, cold, cold, and lost, lost, lost, and having spend a long, long, long time in Lentini (not very attractive, to say the least), but in the end we sere saved by havin picked up a business card a bar in Taormina, thus we found
B&B Fontana Vecchia
, via D. H. Lawrence 8, 98039 Taormina (ME), phone +39 094224116, mobile +39 3398142283. Very nice!
Next day, day 4, after a nice and warm night, we return to
, in via Zecca 7, phon +39 094224663, for breakfast. The owner makes an above-average capuccino and offers fresh dolce.
As you can see, I have my riding jacket on (cold in the morning) but you can't see that I am wearing jeans. The thing is that Taorina was a little too touristic for our taste. But as we got back there anyway, I grabbed the opportunity to visit the large Greek theater. The Romans later added and expanded on it, but in general terms it is well over 2.000 years old. The shot above is a classic one, with the vulcano Etna in the background.
Here is another with some people to get the scale of things (check the red ring).
While I marvel at the Greek theater, Capa della Famiglia captures some houses and streets. Notice that on the house on the second picture, both the windows and the flowers have been painted on the walls!
We return to the bar Sunrise for espresso. There we are approached by a man, who asks if we are the Norwegians living at Vecchia Fontana. He is the brother of Enrico that we met yesterday. He tells us to just call him when we want to get the bike of of storage. Any time!
We enjoy the coffee, return to the B&B, change, and call him. He turns up in minutes, and we go in his car to fetch the bike. The garage is owned by his mother. So by sleeping there we haev met two brothers and used a favor of the mother. I love Sicilia!
We finally get going, and ride south along the coast. After having passed Catania, we arrive safe and well in Siracusa (wikipedia
). For me, it is sufficient to know the city was founded 734 BC. Here Bamsefar (that is the bike) was captures just outside the Old City. There is a nice bike-only parking there, down by the sea, on the south side. One can-not get in with a car and I think a lrage and heavy bike will be very safe there. We left the bike and went looking for lunch
We found a trattoria with full-size Greek men making up the scenery, but for some reason Capa della Famiglia foudn the place both more familiar-looking and inviting that I did
Anyway, there were noone else there so we walked on.
We found a nice bar on Piazza Archimede, but I have lost the receipt so I don't know the name. What looks like a dolce isn't, but rather filled with prociutto (one crudo and one cotto). It really Adds Life to sit on a piazza, surrounded by locals (but, alas, I couldn't understand a word - the dialect is simply too strong for my Tuscan ear), having lunch, in the sun, together with Capa delle Famiglia, on vacation. If you look closely you might notice I am waring a safety west. You are free to spank me for not taking it off when venturing away from the bike - ugly as Hell. Afterwards, while not having a sigarillo with my espresso, I write some postcards that will never be sent for reasons that will be explained later.
Because of our negative experience yesterday in Lentini, we decide it is time to pick another small town to visit. As our aim for the day is to get to Noto, we pick one at random. We ride up to Palazzolo Acreide. Founded by the Greek in 664 BC, it also sports a theater, a Necropolis, and so on. Never heard about Palazzolo Acreide? I haven't either, but even this village out in nowhere has more historical remains, including a nice Baroque church to make sure all important periods have left their mark, than more medium sized countries in the rest of the world.
Now, of all things, we stumble on Bonaiuto in the main street. It is a combined bar, and (hold you hat) a book-café. The styling is modern and light, huge windows, jazz inside, excellent coffe, afternoon dolce, and so on. If you are nearby, go there!
Parking on the sidewalk obviously isn't allowed, but as in Italy in general, if there is nowehere else to park... Noone seemed to mind.
We are going to Noto, for two reasons. First we want to see the Baroque city. Second, in our guide, we have found a B&B there. On the way we stop in Noto Antica (the Old Noto). It was a city well before the Greeks arrived (old, old, old) and situated on a easy to defend top of a mountain. The city was totally destroyed by the earthquake 11. january 1693. It was decided to rebuild the town closer to the sea, and thus this very large pile of ruins are left for us to see. It has been a Sicel town (wiki
), Greek, Roman, Arab and Norman. There is a 360 degree view from within the city. Worth a visit!
We ride down into the "modern" Noto. Just outside the historical centre we check in at
Villa Canisello
, via Pavese 1, 96017 Noto (SR), tlf +39 0931835793 (homepage
). The owner speaks English, and the picture above is the terrasse outside our room. The standard is good, there is even a radiator (!) and it is only ten minutes to walk to the historical center. Excellent!
We start with an apperitivo on the main piazza, after having visited the large Duomo. It is completely white on the inside (very un-Baroque!) but we learn that it collapsed in 1996 and was opened again after having being rebuilt as late as last year.
Then dinner in a small place with a lot of Italiand having dinner in two small rooms. The place is Trattoria ls Buca. I had lasagne while Capa had salsicce, then I had grlled pesce spada in maniere siciliana while Capa had minestrone. Wine and water. Less than 50 euro. The food is "richer", more tasteful than what we have in Toscana. I like it.
The picture shows a ADVrider after a long day and a very nice dinner. Ready for bed!
The last thing we do is to check that the Bamsefar is still safely parked. The parking is inside the gate and not visible from the street so it is not very surprising that it is still there.
After conjucal responsibilities has been taken care of (dinner and so on
) I lay in bed and think about what I have seen today. It strikes me that the single most characteristic thing must be the thousand of kilometers of white stone walls I have seen. When I think about it, the landscape is so full of them that I have failed to notice. They are just there. I must try to snap a photo of them tomorrow.
208 km on a very nice day. I love Sicilia.
Tomorrow, Day 5, we visit Modica, Ragusa Ibla, we meet a man from Milano in Comiso', we become depressed in Gela, and arrive in Agrigento where we meet an owner of a R1200GS.
208 km today. Thank you for your attention.

Eric and Robin with their lovely daughter Jiselle have owned and managed the Lake Como Beach Resort since 2007. They moved to Italy to raise their daughter in a beautiful, peaceful and stunning setting on Lake Como. Being here is living the Italian dream and we are blessed to offer our guests the opportunity, to share in it.

There is also private secure parking and balconies that overlook Lake Como off the master bedrooms. There is also outdoor seating with umbrella tables and chairs for al fresco dining in front of the villas.
There is also a lovely bbq area with outdoor seating. The Villa offers fre wifi and parking.
We are located within a 3 minute walk of the Lake Como ferry from the resort as well as restaurants, cafes and the grocery store.
We love living and working at the Lake Como Beach Resort and to offer our guests the same magical experience Lake Como has offered us through the years.
One can rent a motorboat right off our boat dock and have it delivered directly to our property at no extra cost. We also have kayak rentals and water toys for the children.
This is a great couples property, family or for family reunions. A unique property with many amenities.
We spent a week at the Lake Como Beach Resort. It was a very relaxing time.The service was great. Eric the owner made us feel very welcome, Everything you needed was supplied in the villa. The beds are especially comfortable after Italys' usually very hard mattresses.
If there was anything we needed Eric was available at the end of the phone. He even took us to the post office to help us send a parcel back to australia, our Italian was piccolo.
We would definately recommend a stay here. Our weather was'nt the best in early October, but we still had a great time. Some lovely restaurants to try and the ferry is 5 mins walk allowing you to visit all the surrounding towns on the lake. Would be even more special in sunny weather. Hello to Eric and family. The local people were very kind and made sure we were looked after. Made some lovely friends here.
· By Jeanie from Perth Australia on 10/29/2013 for a stay in 10/1/2013
Beautiful Lake Como area, with very nice accomodations right on the Lake and access by bus or ferry to several other spots. Great hosts that help you find what you looking for in the area. I would definitely return to the same resort
The weather in October was perfect for our two week Honeymoon on Lake Como.
Upon arrival to to property we were greeted by out wonderful host Eric who had a very exotic welcome basket awaiting us. A special request for our Honeymoon prior to arrival which was so kindly accommodated. Thank you Eric - my wife was delighted with everything from the flowers to the wine and chocolates. Feeling very much at home and so warmly welcomed, we did not want to venture out much and spent much of our time on the property and going out for a few lovely dinners at some local restaurants. Salice Blu was our favourite and a great recommendation.
We took a very romantic boat ride around the lake and did a seaplane tour of three lakes, was most exciting.
The property is most beautiful being directly on the waterfront with the most incredible unobstructed views of the lake. Very well maintained and fully equipped with all we needed as well as very comfortable and luxurious. You must visit the new lido in Bellagio while here for music and dancing in the evening.
We took the ferry from Pognana Lario to Bellagio and onto Varenna as well, lovely voyage. Having the ferry within walking distance made it very easy and fun.
Seeing all the gorgeous villas from the lake is awesome and George Clooney's villa is just across the water. You can even see it from the LCBR lido and balcony.
We had a memorable, wonderful romantic Honeymoon that we shall never forget.
We absolutely loved our stay and our accommodations and the owners were top notch. AAA Rated for accommodations and customer service. We would not have chosen or could not have chosen a better location and property!
Mr and Mrs. H.W from Austria
Our Holiday on Lake Como, was more than we had hoped for in October.
The weather was fantastic. We spent 10 amazing nights and visited many of the local popular sites which stay open until early November. The cuisine was phenomenal and we enjoyed every bite. We dined on local fish that was caught from the lake daily and grilled it on the bbq in the gardens overlooking the lake.
What a sight it was. The views are to die for. A true gem of a find. Our friends who originally made the reservation for us, had been here the year before. The LCBR for our 25th Wedding Anniversary, wa s great recommendation. Thanks Eric and Robin, who were wonderful welcoming hosts who helped plan our first trip to Lake Como and the surrounding area.
The property was incredibly beautiful and the villetta completely full of all the mod cons and very comfortable as well as cozy.
We could not have asked for kinder or more lovely owners who made our stay fantastic and most memorable.
Wonderful experience and recommended to all !
Michelle and Byron P. USA
We had a tremendous holiday here at the Lake Como Beach Resort for a week of sunning and relaxation on the waterfront.
The views from our balcony and bedroom as well as all over this property are much better than any picture could possibly take. Absolutely stunning views! Eric was a treasure and little Giselle a gem. Customer service was 5 star, unmatched. Eric, you are the best!
The villetta was impeccably clean and well equipped. The beds were so comfy and linens very high hotel quality (5 star quality ). Loved the loungers on the lido with cushy bedding on them. The colorful umbrellas and bbq area was used daily and loved every minute of it.
Gosh, we want to come back in Septemebr for another 10 nights- can't wait to get back here to paradise on Lake Como !
The gardens are beautiful from the time you get out of the elevator through the gorgeous gardens - wow.
Had a dinner cruise one evening on the lake which was great fun and is where I proposed to my finacee, Simonne. We rented a motorboat which was recommended by Eric for a few hours on the lake and went to Bellagio, Varenna and Sala Comacina. You have to see the villas along the lake shore, it is a must see.
Visit the Villa Carlotta, Villa melzi and the Villa Balbienello- the James Bond Villa !
We are looking forward to our retun to the Lake Como Beach Resort for our Honeymoon next year.
This is the place to get engaged or spend your honeymoon, anniversary or any special occasion as it is paradise on earth, literally.
We really enjoyed swimming in the lake right off the lido and beach, the water was crystal blue clear and clean.Refreshing !
Thanks for making our engagement so special. You will never be forgotten. We have already told all our family and friends about you and your wonderful resort. It is just the perfect size.
Ciao from London.
Until next year for our HONEYMOON ! :)
Ryan and Simonne
Our 20th Wedding Anniversary on Lake Como was heavenly.
My husband had everything pre-ordered ( wine, roses, Prosecco, grapes, swiss chocolate, prociutto and melon, cheese, mozzarella and tomatoes, fresh bread and the homemade food they make at the local market in Pognana and delivered to the Villetta Panoramica, which was the most romantic holiday we have ever had. I was so excited when we arrived and found the most stunning views over Lake Como we have ever encountered anywhere. We arrived with our own parking spot and elevator to the gardens. Greeted by Eric owner of the Lake Como Becah Resort, who was an amazing host throughout our entire stay. Helping from the boat rental to driving us to get food to dropping us off at the train station. Unparelled customer service.!! ACE! Never had we been treasted with such personal care. Thank you Eric for your hard work and heart in all you do. It really shows in all your properties.
The gardens were lovely and overlooking the lake. The entire property was just beautiful. We spent a lot of time on our balcony and in the gardens, on the lido and on the barbie.
The butcher shop within walking distance had wonderful grilled meats and fresh vegetables as well as all the basics you would need. You never really have to leave the property. We rarely left as we just wanted to relax and enjoy the lake as long as we could. Our stay was not long enough.
On arrival we were greeted with a wonderful bottle of wine and a tour of the property with all the great things we could do around the lake. We did take all of Eric's advice as he was full of wonderful information on what to do to get the most out of your visit. We used the ferry a lot to get around the lake which was a lot of fun. Went to Varenna, Bellagio,
Bergamo, Menaggio and Lugano. At the end of the day, coming back to the resort was the most relaxing and sitting with a glass of wine on the lido with my loved one.
Thanks to Eric, Robin and my wonderful husband John for making my dream of coming to Como and having a magical holiday come true. It was always my dream vacation.
The Villetta was very beautifully decorated with everything we needed and was very cozy and comfortable. The best nights sleep we have had in years we had at the resort. It cound not have been more perfect.
Don't miss this place, it is just as perfect as perfect could be !
It was the perfect location with the most stunning of views....
We will miss the Lake Como Beach Resort !
My husband and I got married near Florence in April. After the wedding, we went to Lake Como for our Honeymoon. We were so pleased with the Lake Como Beach Resort. Eric greeted us at the train station and even took us to the grocery store before taking us to Pognana Lario, where the beach resort is located. This place is so quaint with a little sandy area right on the water. We spent a lot of time there and on our little balcony attached to our room. There was a little path from the resort to the ferry stop, where you can ride to any of the other cute little towns along the lake. The only complaint we had was that the walls are quite thin in the rooms and we had a family with some rather noisy children staying next to us. However, all in all, I would certainly recommend this place to anyone who wants to experience the beauty of Lake Como

by, 30th May 2012 at 12:04 AM (376 Views)
So I went to a party on Sunday. Nothing much, just a couple of kids hanging out at a barbecue and sitting around the fire. Jumping on the trampoline, making s'mores, and all that stuff was included. Nothing too racy; for every kid, there was around five adults, so it wasn't out of control.
So, in an effort to escape the parental hovering, many of the kids left the house and headed to the park. We didn't have much in mind, so we just sat on the playground in boredom. We tried playing frisbee and basketball, but we soon found out that we sucked at both of those sports, so we quit.
About 15 minutes of boring passed before we actually started to do something. Half-sarcastically, half-entertainingly, we started a game of Lava Monster. You know, the one where you run around the play set trying to tag people with your eyes closed? Yeah, sounds like a great idea, right? WRONG.
For some reason or another, I kind of wanted to be it, so I was tagged on purpose. I wandered around on the ground, looking for a good place to crawl onto the play set (you can have your eyes open for this). Most of the people had made their way up to the highest tower, so I sighed, closed my eyes, and stepped on.
I knew that all the players were up a relatively short ladder, and, if I could get up there myself, I could easily tag a person. So, after several seconds of me slowly and carefully climbing the ladder, I got to the top step. Reaching around, I grabbed the handles with both my hands. I then launched myself forward, thinking that I would be able to touch someone before they pulled away.
And I launched myself --more specifically, my face-- right into a metal bar.
Obviously, the playground was built for children (what kind of playground is built for 17 year olds?!), so a metal bar would make sense. It would be able to give kids an extra place to hold onto as they were going down the ladder. But, for me, it was at just the right height to be able to smack the top of my forehead into it.
Of course, my friends freaked out, so they made me sit down for 10 minutes. I didn't feel funny or anything, at the time, so I didn't think much of it; I thought a girl just smacked her head. Yeah, it hurt, but nothing out of the ordinary was present.
We went back to the house about 15 minutes after I hit my head, and I was feeling just as fine as ever. I spent the rest of the night enjoying myself and forgetting all about the head injury. Even though I was a little wary, I went to sleep, which is a big no-no for serious concussions. None the less, I woke up feeling fine and went home right after breakfast.
It was only then, when I began talking to my dad, that I started to realize what had actually gone down at the playground. Apparently, I had called him about 4 minutes after I hit my head and had a conversation with him about when to pick me up the next morning. I have absolutely no recollection of this.
Then, when I started to think about it, I never remembered returning to the house. I just assumed that we walked back, but I have no specific memories of actually walking back. Everybody knows that I walked back with them, but I just can't remember it whatsoever.
So, after discussing with my dad for a little bit, I think I arrived upon some results.
What I had was a concussion. It was a rather minor one, but a concussion none the less. I then called my dad, had a conversation with him, and then hung up. After waiting for a couple more minutes, we walked back to the house where the party was at, and we continued on through the rest of the night as usual.
The things that I don't remember were filled in by my subconscious. Since I was not reminded of something that happened right after the concussion as the night progressed, I didn't fill in the blank, since I never remembered having it. Things like walking back home were simply assumptions made by my subconscious; how else could I have gotten back to the house? The rest, I just didn't need. My brain didn't know it was missing it, because it didn't know that it didn't know that it was missing it!
So what do you guys think? Do things like this really happen, or do I just not have a good memory whatsoever? Either way, I feel absolutely fine right now, so I don't think that it's going to affect me in the long run. I'm just a little confused, I guess. Will I ever be able to recover those lost 15 minutes of my life?

Bando Jonez ft. Twista, B.o.B. & T-Pain - Sex You (Remix)
Artist: Bando Jonez
Producer: Anonymous
Album: None (Promo Single)
Avg Rating: 3.5 ( 6 votes )
Bando Jonez clearly isn't the type to take things slow. This is our first encounter with the Epic Records recording artist, and he's already eyeing the bedroom door. Don't let the singer's forwardness scare you away from his debut feature, though, or you risk missing out on a dope listen. The official remix of promo single Sex You, the original version of which hit the 'net four months back, sees Jonez joined by a trio of heavyweight collaborators. Twista, B.o.B and T-Pain jump on Anonymous's synth-driven beat to deliver freaky guest bars. Was it as good for you as it was for Bando? If so, you'll want to keep your browsers locked for more from the rising R&B star.

Raft Inflatable
I sail Lake Michigan. I believe it may be advisable to purchase a raft in the event the boat became holed during a lake crossing. I have searched the web and more less settled on an Intex Seahawk II (supposedly seats 4 people and cost about $200). 99% percent of the time my sailing is solo or with one other person. The raft would have an electric DC pump. I have never seen this raft first hand so am interested in recommendations from fellow sailors.
You can get them for $125 on e-bay....
Only 3 air chambers rather than 5...
Better than nothing for last ditch effort, but not much for day to day dinghy/tender duty...
Raft Inflatable
Thank you...
Raft not intended for dingy use but just to add a little margin of safety.
It's cool, I have the little West Marine inflateable in a bag and DC air pump.. (Get a good pump from USA, much stronger/quicker than China made one)
More than likely you will never have the time to inflate your raft ! You would be better served in trying to keep your craft afloat,..........Dale
And the waves will wash it overboard and the wind will blow it away and it will be dark and your battery will be dead...http://www.heymow.com/Smileys/Pack1/willynilly.gif
Overall it's gonna be a "bad day" on the water....
One large bottle of helium & big bag of balloons...Dale
Once you boat batteries are submerged you will have no power to inflate your raft.
I think you would be much better off getting a good inflatable tender that you can tow.
After a lot of thought on what to do & knowing the water temp. 42 degrees on Superior I bought a Survival Products 4 man life raft off of Ebay ; Sent it out and had it re-tested! I think it good because it takes up so little space. I see on Ebay they have one listed under life raft. You can also rent from this company.Being made mostly for aircraft they are small packages...Dale
Stray thought: If you are planning to invest $200 in "safety", have you already purchased a PLB or EPRIB? Or a waterproof handheld VHF?
I ask because there's a good chance something else on your boat floats and can keep you floating (pfd, igloo cooler, cockpit cushions, five gallon water jug) and while floating is a good thing, you may not need to float as long if you have a distress beacon with you.

Sorry if the pic is kind of small. In the screenshot, at the bottom left there is a weapon silhouette. The silhouette shows a medium/long range optic on the weapon, but the weapon in the players hands has a short/medium range holographic optic on it. Could this be a nod towards more weapon customization along with a weapon skill tree? Discuss. Edit: I'm not talking about the gun, I'm talking about the OPTIC on the gun and the icon being different.
Hylebos6/18/2013 6:31:00 AM PermalinkThe MS Paint is strong with this one. You will go on to do many great things I feel.
Excal144Edited by Excal144: 6/18/2013 5:27:16 PM Permalink[url]http://imgur.com/3LmzPFc[/url] I think weapon customization will be a thing. The weapon in the boxes seem to be color-coordinated with the armor of the Titans. (Specifically the green one). Hopefully, we'll be able to add modifications like the -blam!-ING AXE in the red box!
Stunt Mercenary6/18/2013 3:47:56 AM PermalinkI think it will be more of a Borderlands style loot system, where the weapon drops have different parts every time. Having customizable weapons takes too much of the random factor away from looting.
Silent Spectre6/18/2013 5:28:10 AM PermalinkI would love to see attachments that fit the weapon as part of the weapon progression system they showed at E3.
Pinkpanther6/18/2013 3:41:27 AM PermalinkI just hope thee will be tons of different gun variety like in borderlands all the stats are the same but most of the guns look the aame
Devishten6/17/2013 8:42:08 PM PermalinkWith how much bungie has been talking about personalizing your adventure and growing as a character while coming to love your gear and playing the way you want to play I would double down on weapon customization. Even if it's not at launch you can bet your pretty floral bonnet it's in the cards
Psychotropic6/17/2013 8:14:23 PM PermalinkAs far as I know, you can assign attributes to weapons as you level them up. Or the attributes themselves just improve as you level up the gun. As far as full on parts customization, I haven't heard that's something you can do.
SoulWielder6/18/2013 1:00:02 AM PermalinkThat's actually a very good catch sir, nice eye. Hopefully it means something.
FoMan123Edited by FoMan123: 6/17/2013 8:55:47 PM PermalinkBungie has mentioned that customization will be good for making your weapon "yours" and making your friends jealous. I'll look for a related video and timestamp. EDIT: Found it. Video above: fast forward to 48:00 where they're talking about "modular design" and "mixing and matching" weapon parts.
iGraviton6/17/2013 8:05:46 PM PermalinkI doubt it. It's probably just the generic icon for all of that kind of weapon. Personally, I think weapon customization, as well as weapon crafting, are both very possible.

Sakharam Binder, the first play staged by Abhinaya Theatre Research Centre as part of the summer theatre fest, provided a perfect start to the three-day festival at the District Bank auditorium here on Tuesday.
The Malayalam adaptation of Vijay Tendulkar's Marathi play Sakharam Binder directed by M.G. Jyothish, despite a slow and monotonous narrative in the beginning, gathers momentum in the later stage. Presenting a slice of the human psyche through the two female and three male characters, the play pokes at the many established systems in society such as marriage and caste system.
The theme appears to be more contemporary now than when the play was first staged in the seventies, when caste system and the institution of marriage was deeply revered and respected. The typical rural life in north India a few decades ago would not find symmetry with our present day thoughts, though.
Moments of silence in the midst of some sequences are quite impressive as are the performances of each artiste. The bullying protagonist was safe in the hands of Gopalan as was the rude and arrogant Chemba in the hands of Surabhi Lakshmi. The play delves deep into the intricacies of human mentality, the pious yet selfish Lakshmi, the sixth woman entering into the deviant life of Sakharam, in contradiction to the accommodating yet rude Chemba. The anxiety of Lakshmi and the tragedy met with by Chemba in the final moments were performed to the hilt by the actors.
The stage turned vivacious with entry of Chemba, while the intermittent appearances of Mian and Shinde provided the needed respite from the sequences turning dreary. Shylaja P. Ambu played the role of Lakshmi and Srinivas V.S. and Pratheesh R.P. enacted the roles of Dawood Mian, (Sakharam's friend) and Shinde (Chemba's husband), respectively.
Irakalodu Mathramalla Samsarikkendathu, directed by D. Reghoothaman and M.D. Jyothish will be staged on May 16, the concluding day of the festival.

Writing in an Age of Silence
Posted October 2, 2011
"Silence does not mean consent. Silence means death," states Sara Paretsky, writing about post-9/11 pressure to withhold criticism or dissent. That this book was published 4 years ago and mine is the first customer review itself speaks volumes. As a memoir it exposes the writer's burden of self-doubt, created in part by a family and community that belittled her talent and potential. It would be convenient to dismiss her socio-political commentary on repression to lessons we've learned from our (albeit recent) past, but unfortunately that hasn't occurred, notwithstanding regime change at home. On the one hand, I find myself troubled by the book's lack of focus and lackadaisical editing; on the other, I'm ashamed that my own outrage at the conduct she describes has been limited to financial support of a few groups (such as the Freedom to Read Foundation) that continue to take civil liberties seriously.Was this review helpful? Yes NoThank you for your feedback. Report this reviewThank you, this review has been flagged.

The United Kingdom of Great Britain, unifying the crowns of Scotland and England, resolved centuries of rivalry between the two kingdoms that had been exploited by neighboring rivals, primarily France. After this time, the kingdom's foreign policy focused on overseas colonies. After losing the American Revolutionary War, the British developed their dominance in India. In 1801, acts of parliament unified the United Kingdom of Great Britain with that of Ireland, resolving further local disputes. The victory over Napoleon established the United Kingdom as the preeminent power in Europe, leading to a period called by some the Pax Brittanica. The British joined other European states in the rush to dominate as much of Asia and Africa as possible, eventually giving the unified kingdom significant control over Africa and broad control of southern Asia. By the end of the 19th century, the United Kingdom was considered the preeminent power in the world, its legacy left in the widespread use of English worldwide.
With the rise of European nationalism, the eruption of World War I exposed the United Kingdom to mass warfare on its home shores, beginning an extended period of close alliance with the United States. Despite the allied victory with France and the United States, post-war policies led to the more destructive and financially crippling Second World War, where the British would defend lines around the world and expend much effort to command the loyalty of colonized subjects in defeating the Axis Powers. Following the war, separatist movements in British colonies the world over gained strength as the British had difficulty sustaining the overstretched empire. Resolving to consolidate the country's reach, the United Kingdom withdrew from areas in the Middle East and southern Asia, leading to the independence of several new countries and a flowering of conflicts between rival groups in the British withdrawals' wake.
Despite this, British influence has remained strong worldwide. The British military is substantially strong and in a perpetual alliance with the United States. The United Kingdom, as one of the five official winners of World War II, maintains its own seat on the United Nations Security Council. Its enormous economy also makes it a prominent player on the global economic stage. Worker shortages and unrest in former colonial holdings led to a massive wave of immigrants from the former British subjects. The British have also joined several international organizations and alliances, mainly the European Economic Community, which became the European Union in 1992. The British also maintain a leading role in the North Atlantic Treaty Organization, a military alliance primarily led by the United States.
British foreign policy has been closely aligned with American foreign policy, occasionally causing tremendous domestic discontent in the United Kingdom. Since World War I, the two countries have maintained close military ties, which have been boosted by a common language and many would say a common culture. The two countries share military research, development and mutually buy and sell technology. The British armed forces have been the key ally of the United States in the wars in Afghanistan and Iraq. However, British plans to precede American withdrawals from both countries have caused ruptures in the relationship with both the White House of George W. Bush and administration of Barack Obama. Regardless of differences, the respective president and prime minister of both countries have developed close personal relationships in recent years, even when either office is vacated and a new individual assumes the seat.
The relationship between the United States and United Kingdom is considered the most important and to constitute a cornserstone of British foreign policy. It has been termed the "Special Relationship" following the words of Prime Minister Winston Churchill in 1946. It has been used repeatedly, especially by former British Prime Minister Tony Blair. The extent of that cooperation is seen to be based on a plethora of cultural similarities and common historical origins for the peoples between the two countries. The World Wars helped to solidify a military alliance that persisted through the Cold War. Going back to World War I, divisions in American society kept the country from pursuing a non-neutral policy. Political expedience led members of the government to support alignment with the United Kingdom, but established Americans also supported the British over the German-led alliance during the war.
Despite cool periods, the personal amicability between President Ronald Reagan and Prime Minister Margaret Thatcher indicated a reinvigoration of the relationship. The two states supported each other's controversial wars during that period, and the two have functioned more or less as a unitary force during the Afghan and Iraqi wars.

Just wondering what it could mean if my hands go numb quite often? Usually it's my right hand more than my left. Also it really hurts when I bend my fingers on both hands. It hurts where I bend them at the knuckles. The numbness occurs at night. I'll wake up and my right hand and sometimes half my arm is completely asleep and it takes a long time for it to wake up again. Feels like pins and needles. Or my hands also fall asleep if I'm sitting on the couch in a certain position. I'm sure it's all normal...but I also have pretty low blood pressure so maybe it is a circulation/blood pressure issue. Anyone else experiencing this?
Anyone have numb hands?

It sounds like carpel tunnel. I thought I had it because my left wrist hurts, but the dr said its not carpel tunnel because if it was my hands would be numb and tingly.
*Kate* Jacob Bryan *May 07, 2009*
On my way to being healthy! 0/30 lbs lost :)
I am, you know I am, I am Canadian!
I have the same symptoms. My doctor diagnosed me with pregnancy induced carpal tunnel syndrome. It occurs when the medial nerve (located in your wrist) gets pinched (from extra fluid) causing numbness and on bad days for me shooting burning pains up my arms. I have been wearing wrist support bands for the past couple of weeks, just so I can function somewhat normally. Mine are numb all day now. Numbness started about 2 weeks ago just at night. I hope yours goes away or feels better soon. I was told that mine will get worse until we have the baby and should go away by 6 weeks after birth!
I couldn't brush my teeth or butter my toast this morning because my hands were so swollen, painful and weak. :(
It sucks.
Good thing this baby is coming in the next couple of weeks. I don't know how much longer I can stand it.
Stepmom to Ben (11) and Rachel (8) and Mommy to Tristan Liam born 5.20.09 and baby Marjorie Diane born 6.23.11!
When I mop or sweep the house I get a pins and needles feeling. sometimes when I am writing too. You are not alone.
I get numb hands, fingers, and feet. It sucks! I never had that in my other pregnancies. I still can't get over how different each of my pregnancies have been.
I have that feeling and I hate it! I can't straighten my hair or peel potatoes or knead dough for more than 30 seconds. It doesn't help when they fall asleep while I am in a nice deep sleep and wake me up either. bleh!
Baby Boy TROY BARRET JOHNSON welcomed May 6th, 2009
