Just wanted to say hello.
Just wanted to say hello the the locals. Just got a 07 KLR and I am loving it looking forward to some trips. Dont really know what else to say. I live in the south Fort Worth area, about a week or two ago I saw an ADV group meeting up at waffle house on i 35 near Burleson. I rode right by on my new to me KLR and wanted to stop and say hi but was running a little late to work. Anyway whatever and HOWDY!:D
Hello and welcome to the forum.
Locals? DFW? Welp...that leaves me out! :rofl

UPTON, NY - Scientists at the U.S. Department of Energy's Brookhaven National Laboratory have identified key elements in the biochemical mechanism plants use to limit the production of fatty acids. The results suggest ways scientists might target those biochemical pathways to increase the production of plant oils as a renewable resource for biofuels and industrial processes.
"Now that we understand how this system operates - how plants 'know' when they've made enough oil and how they slow down production - we can look for ways to break the feedback loop so they keep making more oil," said Brookhaven biochemist John Shanklin, leader of the group publishing the work in the Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences the week of June 4, 2012.
Similar biochemical feedback loops regulate a wide range of metabolic processes in living things. They work similar to the way a thermostat maintains a relatively constant temperature in your home: When it gets too warm, the heating system turns off until the temperature falls to the set point, at which time it turns on again.
"There were hints that such a feedback system might exist for plant oil production," said Shanklin, who credits Carl Andre - a former postdoctoral research fellow now working at BASF Plant Science in North Carolina - with designing and carrying out the intricate biochemical detective work that uncovered the details.
"It's very difficult to work on developing oil seeds because they are very tiny," Shanklin explained. So the scientists performed their biochemical tests using a plant embryo cell culture to simulate what goes on in the seeds.
With assistance from the Radiotracer Chemistry and Biological Imaging group at Brookhaven (http://www.bnl.gov/medical/RCIBI/), Andre synthesized "labeled" forms of the fatty acids that occur as intermediates along the metabolic pathway that leads to oil production. He fed these, one at a time, to the plant cell cu

Audi "coup" by Thjnk
Rating: 5.0
By Loulla-Mae Eleftheriou-Smith, marketingmagazine.co.uk, Wednesday, 15 June 2011 01:51PM
Nick Lansley, head of research and development at Tesco, was one of the key speakers at the event, which championed the rise of mobile as an advertising platform.
Lansley was speaking in a "spotlight" session on mobile commerce.
He said: "A lot of our customers cannot afford smartphones," adding that the most popular mobile phones sold in Tesco "can only do voice and texting".
Lansley said: "They cost £18 or £19 and we sell them by the thousand. Those are our very basic phones.
"We should be creating a service for customers who can't afford anything better."
Lansley said Tesco needed to better target these consumers with enhanced services.
Commenting about the company's broader mobile strategy, Lansley said the development of Tesco's mobile and digital strategy had been to make online shopping "better, simpler and cheaper" for the customer.
Selling online grocery shopping was the "most challenging product you can sell on the internet," because it was "difficult to get excited about".
Lansley explained that Tesco had made a step-change in its online and mobile shopping processes, to create an "effortless" experience for the consumer.
He demonstrated the result of Tesco's current mobile marketing strategy by showing its "beeping' ad", which boosted the use of the mobile service "within seconds of the ad airing".
The ad demonstrates Tesco's iPhone app that allows consumers to scan products that they would like to add to their grocery basket.
Yesterday, Ian Carrington, head of mobile (EMEA), Google, told the conference that nearly eight out of 10 brands working with the search giant were not ready for the mobile explosion.

Political parties
The Pro Patria Union (Estonian: Isamaaliit, meaning literally Fatherland Union) was a national conservative[1] political party in Estonia. The party was founded on 2 December 1995 from a merger of the Estonian National Independence Party and the Pro Patria National Coalition.
On 4 April 2006, representatives of the Pro Patria Union and the representatives of Res Publica decided to merge the two parties. The merger was approved by the general assemblies of both parties in Pärnu on 4 June 2006. Although originally the name For Estonia (Eesti Eest) was considered for the united party, it was rejected. New party was officially registered on 15 October 2006 under the name Pro Patria and Res Publica Union.[2]
According to party statements, the programme was based on Christian democracy and nationalism. Together with its predecessors the Pro Patria Union was the main force behind the economic and legal reforms in the Republic of Estonia at the beginning of the 1990s.
In government and opposition[edit]
Mart Laar, a historian, former Chairman of the National Alliance "Pro Patria" and Prime Minister of Estonia from 1992 to 1994 was elected the new Chairman of the party on 24 October 1998.
The party was successful on the parliamentary elections of 1999, receiving 18 seats. Its leader Mart Laar became Prime Minister again. His coalition government was in office till 28 January 2002.
The Pro Patria Union was a member of the European People's Party (Christian Democrats) and European Democrats (EPP-ED). The party had one seat in the European Parliament, held by Tunne Kelam, the Chairman of the Pro Patria Union from 7 December 2002 to 16 April 2005.
In parliamentary elections in 2003 they won 7 seats in Riigikogu and joined the opposition. Tõnis Lukas was elected chairman of the party on 16 April 2005. Historian and archivist Aimar Altosaar was re-elected Secretary General in 2005, having served in the same position from 1996 to 1999.
The party had an official newspaper called "Tribüün" (The Tribune). It was established in 2001.
For the local elections in autumn 2005 the Pro Patria Union signed a cooperation agreement with two minor parties: Union of Farmers (Põllumeeste Kogu) on 6 July 2005 and with Estonian Democratic Party (Eesti Demokraatlik Partei) on 12 July 2005. The local elections on 16 October 2005 showed a growing support for the party. The presence of the Pro Patria Union grew from 0 to 7 seats in Tallinn City Council and remained the same (9 seats) in Tartu City Council.
In April, 2006, former party leader and twice PM Mart Laar was awarded the Friedman Prize for Liberty.[3]

This week's streaking and slumping MLB teams
By ASHTON GREWAL
Summer officially began over the weekend which means you can depend on a few season traditions: Unoriginal Hollywood-sequel garbage and the boys of summer dominating the sports pages.
Covers catches you up on all the latest betting up and downs in the world of big league ball.
Stats current through Sunday June 22.
Toronto Blue Jays
Don't worry Blue Jay backers you're not hallucinating. That really is Cito Gaston monitoring the field in the Toronto dugout. Yes, the same Gaston who was canned by the Canadian club in 1997 and hasn't managed since.
Gaston replaces John Gibbons who simply could not find an answer to the Jays' offensive problems. Toronto's 1-0 loss on Friday dropped the team's record to 10-19 in one-run games.
Before Sunday's 8-5 win, the Jays had lost seven straight. Overall Toronto has won just five of 19 in the month of June.
Arizona Diamondbacks
The D-backs still lead the National League West but things aren't going so smooth for the World Series contenders. Despite a red-hot start to the campaign, Arizona is now just two games above .500.
Many expected the Diamondbacks would not maintain their earlier productivity (28-16 on May 19) but few could have predicted this type of swoon. Arizona hasn't won more than two games in a row since mid May.
Quiet bats are the chief culprits for the slump. June hasn't been a kind month for talented players like Justin Upton (.109) and Chris Young (.231). The All-Star break can't come soon enough for the D-backs. Look for them to be recharged after the layoff.
Detroit Tigers
Maybe there's still some rock left in the city of Detroit after all. Two weeks ago the Tigers appeared to be an unmotivated group of underachievers. But after winning 11 of their last 14 some suggest the ballclub is hitting its stride.
Marcus Thames power surge has been a pleasant surprise for Detroit supporters. The left fielder has nine big flies in the last 15 days adding to a lineup already loaded with pop.
Perhaps the most promising sign was a strong start for staff ace Justin Verlander. The big right hander struck out 10 in five and 1/3 innings Sunday against the San Diego Padres en route to only his fourth win of the season.
Total trend
I was all set to write about how the Atlanta Braves' offense is muck. I had a beautiful paragraph ripping the preseason faves to win the NL East for an overdependence on 36-year-old Chipper Jones.
No sooner did have these wonderful pros lined up did I realize Mark Teixeira lit up the Seattle Mariners for three hits (all round trippers) and four RBI. Well one thrashing of the worst team in the majors isn't going to get the Braves off the hook.
Atlanta has played under the number in 11 of its last 16 contests thanks in large part to large total numbers. Oddsmakers have placed the total for Atlanta games lower than 9½ just six of the club's last 18 contests.

Chan's MLB money arms: Week of June 23rd
By DAVID CHAN
Our money arms have gone 7-2 over the past two weeks, proving that a little homework can go a long way when it comes to building bankrolls. It's the start of another busy week on the diamond and here are five starters that could earn you some extra loot over the next four days.
Josh Beckett, Boston Red Sox, Monday vs. Arizona
I'll start it off with a bit of a public arm. Josh Beckett always gets plenty of love from oddsmakers are well as the betting majority, but on Monday it's deserving. He doesn't lose many games at Fenway Park, but did come out on the short end of the stick against the Orioles the last time he took this mound. In his last start, he was masterful over seven shutout innings against the Reds. With the Diamondbacks slumping at the plate, Beckett will be able to extend his shutout streak, which currently sits at 11 innings. After a disappointing weekend against the Cardinals, the Red Sox will come out highly motivated on Monday.
Mark Buehrle, Chicago White Sox, Tuesday at Los Angeles
It took some time, but it looks like Mark Buehrle is finally settling in here in 2008. He has lasted eight innings in each of his last three starts, giving up a grand total of 18 hits and four earned runs. The Dodgers have hit lefties well this season, but in my opinion, this is an offense that can never be trusted, especially against crafty veterans such as Buehrle. The White Sox have been having a tough time finding the win column on the road, but that only serves to give us additional value on Tuesday.
Josh Banks, San Diego Padres, Wednesday vs. Minnesota
Banks got a taste of the major leagues with the Blue Jays last summer, and he's making the most of his second opportunity with the Padres. Ever since he worked six innings in relief of a marathon 12-9 18-inning win over the Reds, Banks has been in top form. Over his last 31 1/3 innings, Banks has given up 25 hits and six earned runs. He should be brimming with confidence after keeping his team in the game at Yankee Stadium in his last start. Now he gets the chance to silence a Twins lineup that hasn't exactly lit it up on the road this season.
John Danks, Chicago White Sox, Thursday at Los Angeles
Danks hasn't received a decision in his last five starts, but this looks like a good spot for him to get back in the win column. The White Sox have lost each of his last two outings, by no fault of his. Over his last 12 innings pitched, Danks has given up only 10 hits and one earned run. He has struck out 11 and walked only one over that period. In five of his last six starts he has given up two earned runs or less.
Rich Harden, Oakland Athletics, Thursday vs. Philadelphia
This might look like a bit of a no brainer, but we should get some value thanks to the Phillies standing as the superior team in the eyes of the betting public. Harden has still yet to lose a decision this season, posting a spotless 4-0 record through 10 starts. Go back over his last seven outings, and you'll be hard pressed to find a sub par effort. He has given up two earned runs or fewer six times over that span. The Phillies enter this series in a bit of a downward spiral, so it may be that Harden is catching them at just the right time. Chase Utley and Ryan Howard make this offense go, and they're both struggling at the plate.

Diamond Preview
By Matt Fargo
Monday, June 23rd
Arizona Diamondbacks at Boston Red Sox 7:05 PM ET
A battle of first place teams takes place on Monday. Arizona remains 3.5 games in front of the Dodgers in the National League West but it has been a struggle for the Diamondbacks. Since May 20th, Arizona is a dismal 11-21 over its last 32 games including a sweep at the hands of the Twins over the weekend. Boston avoided a sweep against St. Louis thanks to an extra-inning win on Sunday. Despite losing two of three, Boston still owns the best home record in the American League.
Tuesday, June 24th
St. Louis Cardinals at Detroit Tigers 7:05 PM ET
Interleague play continues including this matchup of teams trying to keep pace in their respective divisions. The Cardinals are coming off a big series win at Boston to remain 4.5 games back of Chicago while Detroit is playing its best baseball of the season with wins in 12 of its last 15 games. The Tigers are just five games back. The pitching duel should be great with the Cardinals going with Braden Looper and the Tigers countering with Kenny Rogers. Both pitchers have identical 1.23 ERA's over their last three starts.
Wednesday, June 25th
Cincinnati Reds at Toronto Blue Jays 7:05 PM ET
The best pitching matchup of the night takes place north of the border as Aaron Harang looks to turn things around while Roy Halladay is just happy to be on the mound. Harang is one of the better pitchers but is struggling with a 3-10 record to go along with a 4.33 ERA. Cincinnati has dropped six of his last seven starts. Halladay meanwhile is thankful after taking a line drive to the right temple, forcing him to leave his last start. Everything checked out and he will look to improve upon his 2.90 ERA which is 6th in the A.L.
Thursday, June 26th
Tampa Bay Rays at Florida Marlins 12:10 PM ET
The Florida rivals conclude their three-game set Thursday afternoon. The surprising Rays entered the week just a game and a half out of first place in the American League East while Florida remains just a game back in the National League East. Tampa Bay took two of three in the first meeting this season and this pitching matchup between Matt Garza and Mark Hendrickson is a rematch of the game 12 days ago. Both pitched well but it was Garza who got the win however he comes in 1-3 with a 6.25 ERA on the road.
Friday, June 27th
New York Mets at New York Yankees 2:05 PM ET
The final edition of the 2008 subway series starts on Friday. This game is a makeup of the rainout from May 16th and after this game, the two head from the Bronx to Queens to start the three-game set at Shea Stadium with gametime at 8:10. The Mets took the two games in the first series last month but right now it is the Yankees who are playing the best baseball. They have won eight of their last 10 games and are 21-10 over their last 31 games. The Mets are back to .500 but are still stuck in neutral

World markets up on latest batch of upbeat earns
nepal World stock markets mostly rose Tuesday as investors warmed to another batch of better than expected earnings and economic data, while the euro struck a 2 1/2-month high against the dollar before its latest effort to sustain a break above $1.30 faltered.
In Europe, the FTSE 100 index of leading British shares was up 56.29 points, or 1.1 percent, at 5,407.41 while Germany's DAX rose 46.72 points, or 0.8 percent, to 6,240.93. The CAC-40 in France was 60.74 points, or 1.7 percent, higher at 3,696.92.
In the U.S., the Dow Jones industrial average was up 39.36 points, or 0.4 percent, at 10,564.79 soon after the open, while the broader Standard & Poor's 500 index rose 4.73 points, or 0.4 percent, to 1,119.74.
Investor sentiment has been boosted this week by a run of solid earnings and corporate news.
In the U.S., chemical maker DuPont Co. became the latest company to easily top second-quarter profit forecasts alongside a bullish outlook statement, while the Standard & Poor's/Case-Shiller 20-city home price index rose by 1.3 percent in May, the second straight upbeat U.S. housing report in as many days.
In Europe, UBS AG and Deutsche Bank AG also delivered forecast-busting earnings in the wake of last week's bank stress test results. On the surface, the results showed the sector broadly strong enough to deal with any future economic and financial shocks - the Committee of European Banking Supervisors said only seven banks failed the tests and only needed to shore up their finances by $4.5 billion.
Meanwhile an upbeat survey into German consumer confidence from the GfK institute also added weight to the argument that Europe's largest economy is growing faster than most in the markets have been expecting.
The recent indicators of an improving economic picture may not be of the top tier variety, but they do provide investors with a snapshot of the global economy at a time when trading volumes drop as investors head to the beach.
"In an environment lacking in obvious catalysts it would be easy to slip into the doldrums, which so often characterises the market mood during the summer weeks," said Daragh Maher, an analyst at Credit Agricole.
"Yet, the nature of the market is that it will seek something out to latch onto, and it is possible that the improvement in risk appetite that has been evident in the market for a while will capture a market devoid of fresh impulse," Maher added.
BP PLC was also in focus Tuesday after the oil company said it was setting aside just under 21 billion pounds ($32 billion) to pay for the oil spill in the Gulf of Mexico. BP also confirmed that chief executive Tony Hayward would be leaving his post by the start of October, to be replaced by American Bob Dudley.
BP shares were steady even though the costs of the environmental disaster meant the company recorded a loss of $17 billion for the second quarter, compared with a profit of $4.39 billion a year earlier. It is the first time in 18 years that the company has been in the red.

Seattle Moves Fireworks Display Out Of Respect For Eaglets
By editor
Good morning. I'm Renee Montagne. Here are two great American symbols that don't always go well together: bald eagles and Fourth of July fireworks. A couple of eaglets are in a nest in a Seattle suburb, right near the spot where the city launches its Independence Day display. The local Audubon Society worried the pyrotechnics would startle the baby birds, still too young to fly. So organizers moved the launch site, plus say this year's display will use quieter fireworks. It's MORNING EDITION. Transcript provided by NPR, Copyright NPR.

Remedial teaching and training can be done after school hours to improve children's skills
CHENNAI: The need for early identification of learning disabilities among children and remedial training to enhance their skills was discussed at an awareness seminar on dyslexia organised at D.G. Vaishnav College here on Tuesday.
The seminar was jointly organised by the Department of Social Work of the College and Madras Dyslexia Association.
Inaugurating the seminar, V. Jayanthini, Additional Professor of Child Psychiatry Department, Madras Medical College, said about 10 to 15 per cent of children in India were affected by learning disabilities. However, many of them may have only minor problems that could be addressed in mainstream schools. The children may have difficulties in reading, writing and spelling words, but not thinking. The intelligence quotient of such children was above average.
Pointing out that a child's IQ is evaluated based on examination, she said the need of the hour was assessment of such children on their strengths. She cited a case study wherein a child, who had difficulty in writing, was now an MBBS student. Though the writing skills were not good, the student had acquired knowledge about the subject.
Ms.Jayanthini also highlighted various concessions given by the government to such children, including the one that allows teachers to read out questions during examinations. She insisted that awareness seminars be conducted for teachers and parents for better understanding of the issue.
N. Suresh Kumar of Department of Clinical Psychology, Sri Ramachandra Medical University, spoke about ways to recognise the symptoms of dyslexia.
Sangeetha Madhu, clinical psychologist at N.S.M.Centre, highlighted the need to counsel parents for recognising the potential of such children.
Lakshmi Lakshminarayana, special educator of Madras Dyslexia Association, spoke about remedial teaching and training that could be done after school hours to improve children's skills. Visual clues could be given to facilitate easy comprehension of words.
V. Sayee Kumar, faculty, Department of Social Work, D. G. Vaishnav College, said that about 200 participants, including school teachers and students of teachers training colleges, attended the seminar hosted by social work students. Similar seminars on various themes, including drug abuse, community health and AIDS awareness would be organised.

Re: Raritan toilet expertise sought.
I think the only difference between the PH II and PHE II is that the PHE has an electric motor to drive the pump shaft. The internals of the pumps themselves should be the same and therefore the parts completely interchangable. As Faster suggested, call Raritan for the definitive answer. The 1200 C parts kit may include the parts for conversion of the pump from PH to PHE???
With regard to the cracking.... if the heads in question are original equipment (1978) it wouldn't surprise me that they might be cracking here and there. I've had a PH II in service since 2001 and have replaced the base unit once and the pump housing once. I've rebuilt the pump probably 4-5 times over the years. You'd be surprised the difference a new pump housing can make in the power of the pump.
The cracking may be caused by age, or it could be the result of prior owners using strong acids to clean the system. I was once an advocate of using diluted muriatic acid to clean the scale off, but we had a catastropic failure of the base of the head after a few years of using the acid. I've heard that other cruisers have had the same problem, so I have now switched to vinegar and changing out pump parts and the hoses more frequently. Apparently the strong acid has some effect on the plastic that does not lead to pleasant outcomes.
If the hoses on your boat are original, replace them.

NEW YORK ( TheStreet) -- The major U.S. stock indices saw a selloff accelerate into the market close after Germany reportedly rejected parts of a European Union draft of solutions for the Continent's debt crisis.
The Dow Jones Industrial Average dropped 199 points, or 1.6%, to finish at 11,998. The S&P 500 was down 27 points, or 2.1%, at 1234, and the Nasdaq was off 53 points, or 2%, at 2596.
The draft, obtained by Reuters, proposed introducing the region's permanent European Stability Mechanism in July 2012, a year earlier than proposed; giving the facility a banking license; and having it run alongside the existing European Financial Stability Facility fund, which was supposed to be have been temporary.The draft said the ESM would have a capacity of 500 billion euros, according to Reuters. Germany rejected the proposal to give the European Stability Mechanism a banking license and issuing common eurozone debt, Reuters reported, citing a senior German source. The European Banking Authority said today that European banks must raise $154 billion in new capital by June 2012. Spain and Italy are the most capital-deficient and need to raise more than 26 billion and 15 billion euros, respectively. The largest banks in Germany face a 13 billion-euro shortfall, all the more reason for the ECB to try to restore confidence in the banking industry. Comments from European Central Bank President Mario Draghi had sent stock futures falling early Thursday. Draghi announced that the ECB would ease collateral requirements and provide banks with three-year loans for the first time, starting later this month. However, he hinted that the bank would not embark on quantitative easing, saying that "we have a treaty that bans monetary financing." He also dampened hopes that the bank would undertake aggressive bond buying to suppress soaring sovereign bond yields in the eurozone. "Draghi essentially said his hands are tied," said Marc Pado, U.S. market strategist with Cantor Fitzgerald. "I think he's holding back until the broader meeting between eurozone leaders this week. He's really putting the pressure on politicians to figure it out."

Recent Sea Point Reviews
This was a real getaway for me and my husband. The apartment is modern, stylish, cozy and cool. Not to mention it being very secure. Refreshing views of the mountains and ocean. Did a lot of exhilarating and engaging activities. If we had a choice we'd willingly oblige and stay longer. It was sad to leave but definitely our week-experience here was unanimously awesome.

Comment posted Council Elections: The count by newsroom.
All that we can think of here is that any comment you are aware of as unpublished may have been written without the 'Post comment' button being properly activated.
Two of us have been sharing the monitoring of comments over the life of this article and neither of us has blocked a single comment – something we have almost never had to do.
newsroom also commented
- Sorry Paula. That is flatly incorrect and you cannot therefore have any evidence for it whatsoever.
In our entire lifespan we have blocked fewer than 10 comments – and that's allowing for memory loss. They have been blocked because they were fully actionable, scatological or smearing for political advantage.
We have also banned one person permanently because he persisted in clear libel in what was clearly a personal obsession that had nothing to do with anyone else.
We sin-binned another for a period for an instance of outrageously poisonous manipulation.
If anything, we should arguably have blocked a lot more comments, not in our own interests – it is patently obvious that we let anyone say what they like about us – but to offer more protection to some individuals than we have done.
We have perhaps been overly tolerant in such cases because we prefer contributors to self-edit in the interests of observing a basic standard of civility and we believe that most people will do so.
- Thank you. It can, of course, be added at any time.
- Simon – just lose the blinkers and read what's being said. There was no suggestion that there is anything wrong with 'urban based' anythings.
This was a serious response to your comment. It's important to try the 'what ifs?' What if this is a serious matter and not a squib?
If it wasn't a serious point but merely another squib through our letter box, then there is no use trying to engage. Email your address and we'll send you a box of Bengal matches to play with.
- And we don't bother so much here about the state Iraq has been left in by our illegal intervention.
It's a matter of scale, Simon but it's the same thing.
We have all to try to understand the condition of the other.
If one is a townie or a teuchter – to use the pejoratives for both – one cannot 'know' what it is to be the other; but one can ask, discover and intuit.
The problem with the school closures was driven, in part, by the phenomenon you identify: urban-based councillors adopting a position on rurality with no experience or understanding of rural communities, the way they work and they way they can fail.
It was the complacent assumption that a position of ignorance was somehow a qualification for superior wisdom that was the can of petrol in this inflammation.
In this case, as you rightly say, the people of Helensburgh didn't and don't think rural schools lke Luss and Kilcreggan matter much. Campbeltown cared as much for Southend; Oban for Barcaldine; Rothesay for North Bute; and Dunoon for Toward.
Why should they. It's not their experience.
But that cannot be the basis for deciding, uninformed, on other people's lives – or for ganging up on them.
Yet each of these places unknown to townsfolk is a rich and individual culture, a living organism that keeps alive much of the country. If these places die, then alternative means and values for living die too.
It's not straightforward but it matters.
- We will publish an article on some of these issues later this evening.
The election is also not fully over yet. The Dunoon contest had to be postponed because of the recent death of Councillor Alister McAlistrer, who was due to stabnd in Dunoon.
That vote is being held on Thursday 10th May and Dick Walsh is one of the candidates. The overall picture will not be clear until that ward election is completed.

Land reform – however this version works out – can make little measureable difference to the Scottish economy; nor will it make a substantial measureable difference to the outward migration of the rural young.
Creating a Scottish container port and freeport – and in the Clyde – however, would be a massive injection of growth.
The economic case for HS2 is not particularly persuasive, even on its approved route. Frequent shuttle flights from London City Airport would make more sense.

Sunderland boss Roy Keane admits he could loan out striker Roy O'Donovan.
"Roy has had his year with us now, we're hoping he will kick on, it was hard for him last year because we were struggling to create chances and he'd had a tough season with Cork City," said the Sunderland manager.
"He's had a good pre-season and we're all delighted with Roy's attitude. There was an idea that he'd go out on loan - and I still wouldn't rule that out - but again, if Roy comes on and is lively and gets a couple of chances he'll score goals because he knows where the back of the net is."

Thank you (and everyone else) for speaking up about this. It means a lot to us.
Couple of things that (in my opinion) could've avoided this:
1) Get rid of the "Tier" boxes for the Omega conversions.
Make EDC's worth x amount, Rare and Prototypes worth x amount, and then give the players a direct conversion into the omega marks. I honestly don't even want to bother with raising my omega faction because all the stuff that I've earned has equaled out to the same thing getting paid out to someone else.
Just because you give them their marks and stuff doesn't mean you just graduate them to the tier for the stuff they have. You want them to grind out the faction that's one thing, but at least -give them- what they've earned off the bat.
2) Players want more -episodes-, so focus on that.
We want more content. While (IMO) New Romulus is awesome, players are wanting more than 5 to 7 episodes in the Klingon content. I personally would say forgo Season 8, and simply focus on putting in new episodes for the Klingons, and possibly new episodes for the Feds too. Need ideas for a storyline from a factional standpoint? Make a contest where the best storyline content from the Community gets a reward! (You may be surprised what comes out).
3) Dilithium.
I'm not sure what you guys are wanting with this one. You make unreasonable demands for fleet projects (200,000 dilithium is just stupidly obnoxious imo), make a small cap of 8,000 per day, and then actually reduced ways that players enjoyed getting it, while forcing players to do other things to get it.
Personally, on my days off of work, I spend about 90 minutes getting my 8k dilithium, and then I spend HOURS playing the game, having fun with my fleetmates, helping them, helping others, or just redoing episodes for either loot or because I think x-one is fun.
Season 7 basically tells me that if I don't spend my time grinding instead of helping my fleet mates with episodes, training them in STF's, or doing basically -not- having fun, because I want to eventually have 8k dilithium to refine so I can afford higher end fleet equipment one day, that I will go absolutely no where fast.
I like STO, but if you guys are trying to put more dilithium into the players hands, you're failing miserably. You want to put more dil out there? Then put it out there. Also, for the Fleet Events, you need to adjust it so that it's more inline about teamwork and not "who has the highest DPS / Healed the most" or whatever. Otherwise it's not about teamwork, it's about being better than that person over there.

Topic: Clicker Heroes / Is using an Autoclicker cheating?
It is not cheating at a certain point. Got 10m HS gained and decided to go away instead of using one, but no progress occurs after some point without one.
Unless this game gets an update to allow for progress to not stop completely there is a built in point where it seems your supposed to use one. Having started this game 67 days ago it is easy to assume non-aesthetic updates wont come since I've never seen an update like that before. At least from 1 person's viewpoint

TRS floor leader in State Assembly E. Rajender said that Minister for Information D.K. Aruna take responsibility if any untoward incident occurred during the 'Sadak Bandh' on February 24, in which lakhs of people would sit on National Highway 44 from Thimmapoor to Alampoor for 24 hours.
Addressing series of roadside meetings at Thimmapoor, Kothoor, Shadnagar, Balanagar, Jadcharla, Bhootpoor, Addakal, Kothakota, Pebbair, Yerravelli cross roads and Alampoor cross roads on Wednesday as part of a bus yatra to mobilise people for 'Sadak Bandh', Etala Rajender said that the people of the district would assemble in lakhs on February 24 to register their protest against the inordinate delay in taking a favourable decision to create Telangana State.
'Democratic protest'
"The police and government should understand and respect the feelings of Telangana people and their anguish and let them protest in a democratic way," he added.
He said that the people of Telangana were resorting to agitations such as the 'Sadak Bandh' only due to the indifferent attitude of the Central government and Chief Minister N. Kiran Kumar Reddy. Mr. Rajender said that D.K. Aruna was overtly pretending to strive hard for a separate Telangana State, but covertly was lobbying against it.
He alleged that D.K. Aruna had gone to Delhi to submit the progress report of Kiran Kumar Reddy and urge the Congress high command to continue him as the Chief Minister.
TRS MLA T. Harishwar Rao said that registering cases of bind-over would not deter them from undertaking 'Sadak Bandh'. He appealed to the people to bring their vehicles, tractors onto National Highway 44 to disrupt vehicular traffic for 24 hours on February 24.
He accused Chief Minister N. Kiran Kumar Reddy for trying to water down the Telangana movement. Another MLA of TRS, Yenugu Ravinder Reddy, said that the people of the district should turn up in lakhs for the 'Sadak Bandh' and wipe out the blame that the Telangana movement was weak in south Telangana.
TRS MLA Jupally Krishna Rao, TRS polit bureau member A.P. Jitender Reddy and other too spoke.

Hi, nice template.
i've a problem with contact form, it doesn't works, how can i fixed this problem?
Hi. Download the latest version of the template.
Love the template … having hard time getting head around "featured" can you explain that more.
Currently I am seeing "no categories" in the main nav what am I doing wrong
Send me pm – I'll take a look at your site. It's pretty simple to setup the theme. Be sure to read the help.pdf file that comes with the theme.
I'm assuming that if I purchase this theme that I can change the color to more accurately reflect my corporate colors? Not that yours aren't nice mind you
Also, what about fonts, I am assuming I can change those as well?
Hi. You'll be able to change whatever you want. The theme is highly customizable.
Can you please check your live preview? doesn't seem to be working and I'd like to review it so I can make a purchase decision. Thanks!
Not sure why live preview doesn't work for you. http://idealcorp.ya-webdesign.com/
Hi How do I not show the home page – just straight into the blog. I have set this in the settings but still not working.
Why is it the the blog sidebar widgets only show for the one blog category chosen?
Also doesn't outline what size the feature images should be?
There are 4 widgetized sidebar areas, so the blog widgetized sidebar differs from other page's widgetized sidebars.
The best results are achieved when using images equal or bigger than 256*256px.
Send me a pm, and we'll finetune the theme to meet your requirements.
Just purchased, what a great backend you created for this in WP. Question though as my WP skills are just starting out. I have read the threads about the top slider area but have another question.
Is it possible to get that top slider area to behave independently from the posts? I guess I could have it link to pages and just not show in the navigation, but basically I would like it to function as a "stand-alone" slider—I guess in the more traditional sense, whereby I can insert the image, the blurb and the link that would go to specific pages within the site, or to not link to anything at all if necessary.
I am mostly building a page oriented site with this so will use the navigation clues you posted about about pulling the posts out of the header.php file. But I don't know enough to see if I tried to adjust the slider text to make this work without breaking what you have in the header.php. Well, actually I tried that but I did break it.
WOuld you be able to help direct me on this?
Also, is it necessary to hit the save options button in the appearance theme area when I set this up? I am wondering if it would make it harder to implement since I know so little. For example, I don't have a contact page on this site and if I update that in the control area, do I have to then go back into the code and override?
Great theme! Liking it a lot. Thanks
Sure, it can be done. Send me a pm.
Looks great! Is there a limit to how many items I can add to the featured item slider on the home page?
There is no limit
When I add bullet or number lists to my POSTS they (the bullets/numbers) do not display – this only happens on posts, pages work fine?
Open style.css and add the following code to the of the file:
div.post ul { list-style-position:inside; }
The theme will be updated soon.
Hi, very nice business theme for me.
Some questions:
are all PSDs included for changing buttons header, category image etc?
are reset.css included?
are the thumbnails shown automatically under "latest posts" in the sidebar?
thanks a lot in advance
The answer to all questions is "Yes"
Hi there,
Loving this theme and the help file that has come with it. Only issue I seem to be having is with the blog category and how it displays in the main menu. There seems to be a gap between it and the home button and I would also like to move it's position. Any ideas?
Thanks, James
No problem, send me a pm and we'll work it out
I can't seem to get images to show up in the featured slider on the home page. I tried adding the image custom field with an image's url for the value and it doesn't seem to work?
Please, post your site url, so I can take a closer look. Btw, you can contact me through my profile page (http://themeforest.net/user/YA).
Is there a way to slow down the feature slider? I have changed the milliseconds in the theme options but that doesn't seem to change anything. I have tried everything from 5ms to 500000ms.
Open footer.php and change duration here: http://pastie.org/693294

Middlesbrough boss Gareth Southgate says Newcastle United do need to apologise for the behaviour of their away fans over taunts directed at Egyptian striker Mido on Sunday.
Southgate said: "When all players go on the field they know they will be goaded at some point but there's a line and I think it was crossed. It's very hard to control when people do it in that vast number. I thought Mido did everything he could for our team.
"He reacted a little bit but he's a human being, that's understandable. He got back in control of his emotions very quickly. His conduct since has been exemplary, I'm very much in his corner, he's gone about things the right way.
"It stepped over the line of banter. I don't think it's necessary for Newcastle to apologise. I don't think a club can always take responsibility for the actions of their supporters."

If ever we develop a DeLorean-based time machine, it would be handy to send information into the past revealing what kind of medical research to focus on.
For years, actor Michael J. Fox was on the front line of the US's "stem cell wars", arguing that embryonic stem cells could cure conditions like his own – Parkinson's disease.
Last week Fox revealed he now believes that other lines of research hold more promise. "There have been some issues with stem cells, some problems along the way," Fox told ABC News. "An answer may come from stem cell research but it's more than likely to come from another area."
Complicated business
The Michael J. Fox Foundation, based in New York City, is still backing stem cell research, says its chief scientific adviser, Gene Johnson of Washington University in St Louis, but has shifted its emphasis in recent years. "Using stem cells as therapeutic agents is a very complicated business," Johnson says.
Obstacles include working out how to get transplanted cells to integrate into the brain, and developing "off-the-shelf" cell lines that can be used for any recipient.
Meanwhile, other avenues are speeding towards clinical trials. These include neurotrophic factors – proteins that promote the survival of nerve cells – as well as antibodies that target the alpha-synuclein protein, which may be a cause of the brain damage seen in Parkinson's.

Community Board Backs 'Occupy' Protesters; Asks Them To Quiet Down
The local community board for the part of Manhattan where the Occupy Wall Street protests are being held voted Tuesday night to bless the occupation "within certain parameters," The Village Voice reports.
Among the things that Community Board 1wants in exchange for its continued support: a two-hour daily limit on drum circles — the "sound of the Occupy Wall Street" protests that, as we wrote Tuesday, has also become a highly contentious issue among both the occupiers and the people who live and work in the neighborhood.
According to the Village Voice:
"Drumming was the big issue of the night again. The question of whether the drummers can drum for two or four hours has turned into an increasingly large albatross, dominating negotiations with the Community Board at a series of meetings over the last few weeks."
It isn't clear at all whether the drummers will go along with the board's request:
"Elijah Moses, a member of the drumming working group Pulse, said that 'there have been some problems with you guys trying to control the drummers.' He held a pair of drumsticks while he spoke.
"He later told the Voice that 'If you keep telling me two hours, I'll keep doing four.' "
Some Occupy protesters, as we said Tuesday, fear that if the drummers keep up the beat too long that may lead to calls for authorities to evict everyone from the park.

There's really no other word to describe Dirk Nowitzki's performance in Game 1 of the Western Conference Finals. If we hadn't watched it, we'd be wondering how anyone can possibly score 48 points while taking only 15 field goal attempts. But seeing is believing. Nowitzki was 12-15 from the field, and set an NBA playoff record by making all 24 of his free throw attempts, as the Mavericks took Game 1 by a 121-112 final.
ESPN analyst Tim Legler just put it in perspective this way: The ball left Dirk's hand on the way to the basket 39 times in this game, and 36 times he made it. You can't do that alone in a gym.
Leading into Game 1, there was a lot of time to talk about how much rust the Mavs might have. Dallas did look a little clunky in the first half, but Dirk was so good it didn't matter. If there was a little bit of rust to shake off, the Mavericks were able to do it while not losing any ground (or the game) to Oklahoma City because of how good Dirk was.
In his post game press conference, Dirk was asked to compare his performance in this game against others in his playoff history. He said:
It's a win, really that's all I care about. It was a tough Game 1, and they kept coming, especially in the fourth quarter, I think we were up 10 and they kept making plays and Durant kept making tough shots. So they were always right there, and it was only like a four-point game there with a couple minutes to go. So the main thing is, we found a way to win and that's what it's all about. Numbers don't mean anything if you lose.
That answer says a lot about Dirk, a lot we already know. First of all, he didn't answer the question at all, but he didn't ignore it either. He deliberately turned it into a team-oriented answer, underlining his point at the end by saying Numbers don't mean anything if you lose. He's not interested in the past. He's not interested in his legacy. He cares only about doing what it takes to win a game, and doing that enough times to win a championship.
We have seen great things from Dirk throughout his career, but he has never looked more confident and in control as he does now. With the bench support he's getting, with Jason Terry finding a level of consistency that has previously eluded him, everything is coming together at exactly the right time.
