It signs with IDOTTV to introduce tawarruq trading in personal financing scheme
KUALA LUMPUR: Malaysia Building Society Bhd (MBSB) signed a four-year licensing agreement with Sedania Corp Sdn Bhd's unit IDOTTV, to use the latter's Islamic banking platform to promote its personal financing-i scheme.
IDOTTV is the developer of the Islamic banking Tawarruq trading system As-Sidq, a system which uses telecommunication airtime as the commodity.
MBSB retail business senior vice-president Azman Aziz said the group migrated from Bai Al-Inah to Tawarruq concept because it was encouraged by Bank Negara and it was most acceptable in the Middle East countries.
"Furthermore, the As-Sidq transaction would increase our efficiency in corresponding with customers through the usage of short messaging system or SMS, which is the primary mode for the akad transaction.
"This new platform will also enable us to reduce operating costs and contribute towards a green environment, as the whole process is almost paperless," he told a press conference after the signing ceremony yesterday.
Meanwhile, Sedania founder and group chief executive officer Datuk Azrin Mohd Noor said the deal with MBSB would be the key for the group to grow their market locally, before exploring other countries.
"To further enhance our presence in the country, we target to partner with at least one local bank per month and we are in discussion with two banks currently," he said.
IDOTTV is one of the leading solution and content providers in the country and specialises in integrating mobile technology into each solution. - Bernama

Originally written on Awful Announcing | Last updated 11/14/14
When the Bruins defeated the Maple Leafs in overtime on Patrice Bergeron's goal, completing an epic Game 7 comeback in the first round of the Stanley Cup Playoffs, my first thought was this: I wonder if Jack Edwards survived. The Bruins play by play man is a little crazy (he even admits to that in his Twitter bio) and a Hawk Harrelson level homer. Sometimes his craziness leads to WTF moments like comparing Matt Cooke of the Pens to Sirhan Sirhan, but other times Jacko strikes just the right balance between genuine excitement and genuine craziness. I knew Patrice Bergeron's game-winner would produce something memorable from Edwards, and I'm willing to wager no Game 7 winning goal has been called like it was a valiant hero slaying a monstrous dragon: "With the point of the dagger at their throats, they rip it out of Toronto's hands and kill the beast!!!" The beautiful part about this call is I can picture Jack Edwards in the booth taking his pen and trying to stab his statistician in the heart in a fit of jubilant rage.

Canon USA has announced two new high-speed color production format printers: the imageProGraf iPF825 and iPF815. Designed for the AEC, CAD, GIS, reprographics, and other technical-document markets, both models feature five colors (CMYK + matte black) and are capable of printing two D/A1-sized (23.4 x 33.1 in.) images in less than one minute.
When we founded our company in early 1994, we were simply a print provider. The prints we provided were digital, large-format inkjet. In those days, just printing in high resolution (300 dpi) and large format (up to 36-inches wide) was a big deal. It allowed us to more than double our sales annually for four consecutive years. There are still and may always be many large-format digital printing companies that are first and foremost print providers. Some continue to be very successful at it.
Digital Juice has released Juice Drops Collection One: clearIntent, the first in a series of new layered Photoshop graphics collections. The clearIntent collection, comprising more than 400 original customizable images in a text template format, features royalty-free layered backgrounds and illustrations that are customizable. Each background is a finished complete graphic, delivered with all the original layers intact for easy customization for any type of design use — from billboards and packaging applications to Web pages, motion graphics, and print advertising.
LexJet has updated its Sunset Photo Paper line, including the Sunset Photo eSatin, Sunset Photo Gloss, and Sunset Photo Semi-Matte papers. All of the papers are now thicker, heavier, and optimized for the latest inkjet printer technology from Canon, Epson, and HP, the company reports. Sunset Photo eSatin (featuring a satin finish similar to E-surface papers used in traditional darkroom printing) and Sunset Photo Gloss (high-gloss for maximum impact) now weigh in at 300g and are 11.5-mils thick; Sunset Semi-Matte (smoother finish than eSatin) is 270g and 10.5-mils thick.
Kapco Graphic Products has debuted three new media for solvent printers: PSA Satin White Vinyl with high-tack permanent adhesive; Blockout two-sided scrim banner; and Mesh Banner with PVC liner.
The Satin White Vinyl, 3.75-mil, is suitable for indoor and outdoor signage printed with OEM and mild-solvent inks. It features an aggressive permanent adhesive for bonding to hard-to-stick, low-energy, plastic, and textured surfaces in cold temperature environments. Available in a 54-in. roll x 150 ft.
InteliCoat Technologies has introduced Magic DMBL5, a 6.5-mil, satin, instant-dry film that's ideal for indoor and outdoor backlit applications. Water-resistant, DMBL5 features a satin print surface that allows for maximum ink density, vivid color, and high image resolution, the company reports. Magic DMBL5 is designed for water-based pigment ink systems compatible with pigmented inks. Available in 24-, 36-, 42-, 50, and 60-in. widths.
Ultraflex Systems has introduced a new 15-oz smooth, scrimless, blockout banner material that is PVC free and 100% recyclable. Engineered primarily for indoor use, the media is compatible with eco-solvent, solvent, UV, latex, or screen-printing; it features a no-curl formula and lay-flat appearance. Ideal for pop-up or scrolling banner stands, tradeshow and events graphics, P-O-P and any hanging banner or sign, says Ultraflex. Available widths are 38, 54, 63, and 86 in.
Metallurgy in the UK has announced a new inkjet-printable metal on a roll. Designed for water based inkjet printers, the highly reflective metal has an inkjet receiver topcoat and comes with a permanent adhesive backing. The product is compatible with water-based inks and many types of large-format printers including Epson, HP, and Canon .
Graphics One has launched the GO FlagMaster Series of direct-to-fabric dye-sublimation printers engineered specifically for the flag and soft-signage market. Available in 44- and 64-in. models, the 4-color FlagMaster models feature print speeds up to 185 sq ft/hr and a maximum resolution of 1440 dpi.

Residents in various parts of the city came to the streets on Sunday demanding immediate solution to the drinking water crisis.
People gathered at Anna Nagar, under the banner of 'Naanal Nanbargal', and sought the intervention of the Corporation and the district administration in solving the problem. The areas they focused, during their token fast, were Melamadai, Anna Nagar, Vandiyur, Yagappa Nagar, Gomathipuram, K. K. Nagar and Maanagari.
"Steps have to be taken on a war-footing to solve the drinking water crisis in our areas. We want at least one public tap for every 40 houses and water should be distributed," they demanded.
Speaking on behalf of the protestors, M. Thamizhthaasan and V. Karthikeyan, both coordinators of Naanal Nanbargal, said that the Corporation should take steps to desilt Vandiyur lake instead of promoting it as a tourist spot.
"We want water and tourism is not our concern. Authorities should revive the lake which has got dried up. Despite our appeal, the administration is not responding," they accused.
The residents also urged the officials to make rainwater harvesting and tree plantation mandatory for all buildings. They also criticised the corporation for not undertaking a scientific assessment before digging bore wells. While demanding a white paper from the State Government on the measures taken to overcome severe drought, the protestors said it was time a concrete action plan is evolved to increase the groundwater table.

Demand growth will outpace any new capacity expansion, which will help improve the global supply/demand balance
Global growth rates for styrene monomer (SM) will be conservative relative to GDP in the coming years, a major styrene player said on 21 November, while supply will face constraints from growing derivative demand.
With a global growth rate between now and 2020 projected at under 3%, Torrez felt that the industry was still reeling from the wider economic downturn of 2008.
This global growth will be driven by northeast (NE) Asia, with both the US and Europe likely to remain flat in the coming years. Over 50% of SM growth in 2012 came from NE Asia, Torrez added.
Finding the balance
Capacity expansion will be limited in the near-term, with no active build period on the horizon, and primarily focused in NE Asia. However, demand growth will outpace any new capacity expansion, which will help improve the global supply/demand balance.
Torrez pointed out that operating rates for SM will have to reach 90% and over to maintain pace with demand growth, and that smaller, fragmented plants are at risk of under-running.
He noted several key drivers of capacity under-utilisation - limited feedstock access and non-integrated units, as well as geopolitical constraints. It is these very challenges that mean NE Asia is likely to remain a net importing region of SM.
In the case of Europe, Torrez highlighted the importance of PO (propylene oxide)/SM production, to which the European market is highly leveraged, with around 40% of regional styrene capacity as opposed to 21% in North America and 15% in NE Asia.
"This could make things interesting in Europe for styrene, given developments in PO and its derivatives," Torrez said, noting that there are multiple routes to PO outside of PO/SM which are often favoured by the PO market.
The US market will expand as an export hub for styrene, with the ethylene advantage remaining the key driver. Torrez predicted that up to 30% of production output will be exported from the region to Asia, South America and Europe.
In terms of future challenges to styrene, Torrez identified the polystyrene (PS) and polypropylene (PP) differential and possible product substitution, as well as increased regulatory pressure on the market.
With regards to the latter point, he said: "We as an industry need to be more cognisant of this, and promote the safety and benefits to long term societal goals."

Knoxville, Knox County want to diversify airline offerings
Introducing another airline to McGhee Tyson Airport could help drop the costs of flying out from one of the country's most expensive departures, maybe even bring jobs here. according to Knoxville and Knox County mayors.
Together, they pledged $370,000 to help lure a low fare carrier to the airport. Knoxville Mayor Madeline Rogero posted $170,000 in her 2013-14 budget recommendation; Knox County Mayor Tim Burchett pledged $200,000 in his.
Among the country's 100 busiest airports for domestic passengers, McGhee Tyson's fares were the seventh highest in the third quarter of 2012, according to figures from the Research and Innovative Technology Administration in the U.S. Department of Transportation.
The country's average fare was $367, Knoxville's was $460.
Such high fares hurt job growth potential here, according to several local officials.
"Over and over and over, we would hear that it's too expensive to get here," said Eddie Mannis, deputy mayor to Rogero. "For our employees, our executives, it costs a lot to fly to Knoxville. And our convention attendees say it's expensive to fly here."
Budgets for both Knox County and Knoxville first must be approved before the money is officially available. Mannis said details on how it will be spent should become clear by mid-May.
"We are not close to signing a deal with an air carrier," he said. "We're just trying to put the initiative into place."
It's not uncommon for a city to put together incentive packages to lure airlines. Charleston officials used incentives to draw Southwest Airlines to its airport.
"A lot of municipalities have tried a lot of things, most of which have not worked, but some have," said Mike Edwards, president of the Knoxville Chamber.
A case study
To increase its airline options, Charleston officials in 2009 passed a standing package of incentives that it could offer, according to a report from The Post and Courier in Charleston.
"It takes an awful lot of work," said Rebekah Beaman, public affairs director for the Charleston airport. "We had a lot of support from the state tourism office, and you've got to have a really good air service consultant."
Armed with a good package to offer, the Charleston process became about finding the right fit for its community.
"You gotta pick the airline that offers the flights to the cities you need," Beaman said.
The incentive package that the aviation authority used with Southwest included up to $150,000 in redeveloping a terminal area, $10,000 for marketing the new airline and waived landing fees based on the amount of flights at the airport, according to the Charleston Post and Courier newspaper.
in Knoxville
The need in Knoxville, according to those close to the planning for an airline, is diversification of carriers. A new low fare airline here would foster competition, they say, and encourage other airlines to drop their ticket prices.
"I will tell you this," Edwards said, "Do not undervalue the coverage we have. We can get anywhere in the world with one transfer."
But how much that flight out of here costs is his and others' concern. And the potential lowered airfare would be used to attract businesses here.
"It deals with, mainly, recruiting a major industry to the area," Burchett said.
He added other governments in the region will be invited to participate in the plan by giving money.
"It's important that we all work together in the region," Burchett said, "because we all benefit from it."
He added that, for example, he knows of Knoxville residents who drive to work at the Clayton Homes headquarters in Blount County.
Officials from Blount and Roane counties have said they don't plan to contribute to the low cost carrier effort. Messages from the News Sentinel to Anderson County and Oak Ridge governments were not returned by Friday.

Stagecoach Festival Lands Reba, Paisley and Chesney
- Kid Rock, Reba McEntire, Brad Paisley and Kenny Chesney signed on to headline next year's Stagecoach festival in California. Billboard has a list of other initial performers that includes Jerry Jeff Walker, Miranda Lambert and Dale Watson.
- In her appearance on Ryan Seacrest's radio show yesterday morning, Taylor Swift revealed that she was, in fact, dating Joe Jonas of the Jonas Brothers and that he broke up with her via a 27-second phone call. That's not all, Taylor wrote a song about the incident, "Forever & Always," which is included on her new album due out next Tuesday. That should net her a few thousand extra album sales.
- Patty Loveless revisits the recording process for Sleepless Nights in her interview with Roughstock's Matt Bjorke.
- Shelton "Hank" Williams III is not shy when it comes to sharing the shortcomings of his newest album and the process behind its recording, nor does he hold back when Americana Roots' John Walker asks about recording for Curb and his future plans.
- HoustonPress's William Michael Smith published a brief Q&A with Rodney Crowell, who has a memoir due in early 2010 that deals with his Houston years, but not his music career.
- A tribute CD honoring Chris Gaffney–co-founder of the Hacienda Brothers who passed earlier this year from liver cancer–is scheduled for a March 2009 release and features Dave Alvin, Tom Russell and Joe Ely among its impressive lineup.
- People is giving away 11 songs from the likes of Lee Ann Womack, Little Big Town and Patty Loveless. (via NashvilleGab)
- The Dallas-based Tejas Brothers (MySpace) play a brand of country inspired by Hank, Cash and Merle and the Tex-Mex of the Texas Tornados, but they didn't get their break until Eleven Hundred Springs pulled the fledgling band "out of obscurity pronto." Vocalist and accordionist Dave Perez explains:
"(Bassist) Steve Berg found us surfing on MySpace and liked what we're doing. He's from San Antonio, so he understood the sound pretty quickly," Perez said. "Those guys took us under their wing and exposed us to every fan they have around Dallas and Fort Worth. They doubled our fan base at every show."
- Ninebullets.net posted a new Ben Nichols song titled "Hey Darling, Do You Gamble," which he explains was inspired by a Townes Van Zandt quote, as relayed by his third wife, in the documentary Be Here to Love Me.
- Music Tomes' week long celebration of Douglas B. Green's new book Classic Country Singers continues today with a giveaway. You need only to leave a comment for a chance to win. The celebration will wrap up tomorrow (I think) with an interview with "Ranger Doug" himself.
10 Comments
Thanks for the plug! It was a fun interview.
Thanks for the "People" downloads link.
The initial line-up for the Stagecoach Festival in Billboard looks very promising.
Stagcoach is my kinda festival. Great acts fill the early time slots and smaller stages, so I can avoid the mind-numbing crowds that gather at night for the lame-a** headliners….
Two things of note from the People link. First, a free Trailer Choir song is still overpriced. Second, James House is 53?!? Holy crap. I remember how happy I was when he finally got a hit song after a couple of good albums went completely unnoticed. I hope he gets some new music out soon.
I just mentioned James House last week! ya know, there aint nuthin' wrong with "This is Me Missing You"…..
Speaking of 1100 Springs, they will be back in Los Angeles this month at The Redwood Bar in downtown. The interesting Sunday "Americana Brunches" line-ups this month include:
November 9th: Featuring Jessie Dayton (hey, where's Brennen Leigh?), The Railbenders, Mike Stinson and West of Texas
November 23rd: Featuring Eleven Hundred Springs, The Palominos, and Sarah Gayle Meech
For Details: http://profile.myspace.com/index.cfm?fuseaction=user.viewprofile&friendID=203611808&Mytoken=45A12730-1D47-42CE-B769C583E101C817131455077
At People.com I was really hoping that the song from Sarah Buxton would be "Space" and not an oldie off her digital EP. Also, the picture they have with the Patty Lovelss song doesn't even look like her!
A Hank III interview will never be mistaken for Carrie Underwood…..
Is it me or the photo of Patty Loveless on the People Magazine's download not Patty Loveless? Looks like Jamie O'Neal. Nevermind…it is Jamie O'Neal – same photo that is shown for her a few clicks over.
I bought the Hank III album last night and have to say that I've let it whirl around several times listening to it. There are some good tracks on there and some you have to go "why did they do that?" Great article to read on him.
Cool link for all the free songs! I love "Like A Woman" by Jamie, I heard it on the radio a few weeks ago, and I'm glad to have it, along with the others, on my ipod.
I downloaded some of the songs from the 'People' link … I think "All The Crap I Do" Mark Wills, is now my new favorite song. (For the moment anyway) :-)

Luray On Mountain Stage
Originally published on Thu June 19, 2014 2:44 pm
Luray makes its first appearance on Mountain Stage, recorded live on the campus of West Virginia University in Morgantown.
The Americana collective is led by banjo player and singer Shannon Carey. Based near Washington, D.C., Carey comes from a musical Wisconsin family: Her brother Sean is drummer and supporting vocalist for Bon Iver.
Originally conceived as a bluegrass group, the ensemble evolved to incorporate a broad palette of instruments, including washy keyboards, pedal steel, drums and electric guitar. Luray's latest, The Wilder, was produced by Sean Carey. She's joined here by husband Gabriel Wisniewski on guitar, CJ Wolfe on drums, bassist Brain Cruse and keyboard player Sarah Gilberg. This set includes the song "The Reins," which was not heard during the radio broadcast.
Set List

So what we have is a lot of newly created Klingons attempting to level up through PvP and having no one to fight. Throw in the exp nerf and they are going to spend even longer at the lower ranks fighting to reach the next (and hopefully more populated) tier.
Honestly the best advice I can give you is stick to the expanse and stay queued while grinding that. And if that becomes to monotonous for you, I'd recommend playing on the test server to get a look at the new Klingon content, or just flat out wait to level one when the new content goes live.
Ah so there was more experience at one point.
Anyways, I enjoy the pvp, I just wish I could get to the infected storyline before there is nobody to do it with.
I thought about waiting for the actual content but thought that pvping forever would make me a better Klingon

From the guidelines ( http://www.shapeways.com/materials/strong-flexible-design-gu idelines), it appears that the maximum cantilever (free end) wall length/thickness ratio should be at 166:1. I have a wire supported on each end that will be a length of 242mm and diameter of 1.44mm (just about at 166:1). I am ok if it is flexible, but don't want it to easily break. Any expert opinions with this material would be greatly appreciated!]]> bcheplak 2013-02-17T16:43:45-00:00 Re: Wire slenderness http://www.shapeways.com/forum/index.php?t=rview&goto=62274&th=12900#msg_62274 AAE video and see if you can decide for yourself.

If these rules could be more readily available within the CAD software or better yet pops up a warning when a design rule has been violated the creation process would be improved. ]]> UniverseBecoming 2013-02-21T18:37:18-00:00

In order to determine whether the different rates of change in NO concentration in the bags stored at 4°C related to smoking category are explained by the differences in initial concentration, the subjects were limited to non-smokers and ex-smokers whose initial FeNO levels were similar to those among current smokers (< 30ppb). In this case, FeNO levels among non-smokers (n = 14) in the bags stored at 4°C were 98.4% ± 5.3% and 113.8% ± 9.1% relative to the baseline values at 9 and 168 hours, respectively, and the values among ex-smokers (n = 4) were 97.0% ± 2.0% and 105.1% ± 7.4%, respectively. These values were smaller than those among current smokers (n = 6). However, the differences were not significant, because of the small number of subjects.

- Senate Democrats have abandoned a $1.1 trillion omnibus bill. It would have funded federal agencies through fiscal 2011. But nine Republicans who had pledged support for the bill, withdrew yesterday. That prompted majority leader Harry Reid to give up on it. Opposition centered on the bill's 6,000 earmarks, and minority leader Mitch McConnell objected to the rushed approach. To avoid a weekend government shutdown, the Senate and House must agree to a third continuing resolution before midnight Saturday.
- The Senate passed a bill Thursday to increase transparency and cost-savings. The Government Performance and Results Modernization Act would require each agency to designate a Chief Operating Officer and a Performance Improvement Officer. Agencies would have to put performance data online. Also clearing the Senate is a bill to increase oversight of government acquisitions. The Federal Acquisitions Improvement Act would ensure more consistent acquisition workforce training.
- The Postal Service and the American Postal Workers Union agreed to keep negotiating a new contract. The current agreement expired last month, and has been extended twice. The two sides agreed to keep extending it day-by-day. GovExec reports, both sides also agreed to suspend employee reassignments based on workload requirements until a new agreement is reached. USPS is working on several avenues to reduce its multi-billion-dollar losses.
- President Obama has named Washington lawyer Carolyn Lerner to head the Office of Special Counsel. Lerner is a partner at the law firm Heller, Huron, Chert-kof, Lerner, Simon and Salzman. It specializes in civil rights law. If confirmed, Lerner would fill a job vacant since 2008, when Special Counsel Scott Bloch resigned. Bloch's stormy tenure included an attempt to remove as a prohibited practice, discrimination based on sexual orientation. Bloch was also accused of retaliating against whistleblowers.
- Xe Services, formerly called Blackwater Worldwide, is about to be sold. The New York Times reports founder Eric D. Prince has agreed to sell the company to a group of Los Angeles investors. Prince is said to have close ties to the group. Xe provides protection to American officials overseas, often using former armed services members. It became controversial in 2007 after a gun battle in Bagdad killed 17 Iraqi citizens. The sale comes after the State Department threatened to stop awarding contracts to Xe Services as long as Prince owns it.
- Earlier this month, the Securities and Exchange Commission said it had reported 600,000 square feet of excess space at Constitution Center to GSA. Today, the General Services Administration says it hasn't spoken to the SEC. Spokesman Mike McGill tells the Washington Business Journal that the SEC has not approached them to report the extra real estate. But the SEC maintains that it did have the conversation back in November, but it was only a consult. No leases were transferred. So the bottom line, according to the story in the Washington Business Journal: the SEC reported the space. The GSA won't release it for the agency. The SEC will have to figure out what to do with it.
- A federal "do not board" list hasn't always stopped travelers with serious, infectious diseases from taking flights. The list is like the "no fly" list, except it is designed to stop sick travelers from boarding flights and spreading their illness. USA Today reports that from January 2009 until this past August, nine infectious people on the list tried to board flights. The list stopped six of them. Officials with the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention say no one was sickened by the three travelers. A Transportation Security Administration spokesman says the loopholes that allowed them to travel have been fixed. The CDC provided the data to Republican staff on the House Energy and Commerce committee.

Thank you for all the assistance with the booking of my stay at Holiday Inn Express Umhlanga.
My Wife and I enjoyed every moment and were very impressed with the hotel. It was an excellent choice.
We look forward to future stays and will definitely recommend this hotel to family and friends.
Once again, thanks and have a good day.
Ravi Padayachee
The stay was lovely, I just don't understand why the hotel has no wardrobe or somewhere to put clothes, it is not like there is no space.
In fact the style of furniture in the hotel is deliberately not catering for such space. I was there for 4 nights and my closes were a mess.
Also think of a small hotel shop which would sell ornaments and goodies as well as chips and snacks.
The staff is lovely and friendly.

The new domestic terminal at Chennai airport saw its first set of passengers on Thursday afternoon, as part of a trial run before its commissioning next week.
At 12.50 p.m., over 90 passengers who arrived from Port Blair on a GoAir flight, walked into the new arrival hall straight from the airplane, via the newly-installed aerobridges.
Most of the passengers were quite surprised to find themselves at the swanky new terminal. Anima Das, who arrived for treatment at a hospital here said, "The journey was quite comfortable. After we disembarked, I used the lift to get to the ground floor."
Some of those who had come to pick up passengers were also taken by surprise, as they continued to wait near the old arrival hall.
The trial run was conducted to give every airline an opportunity to get familiar with the facilities at the new terminal, said an Airports Authority of India official.
"On Friday, two SpiceJet flights will arrive from Delhi and Port Blair and will use the new terminal. Similarly, Jet Airways and Indian Airlines will be given opportunities on March 23 and March 25 respectively," he said.
For weeks now, the arrival hall of the new domestic terminal has been plagued by a problem with a baggage ramp as battery-operated tractors were not able to transfer baggage from the basement to the ground level. The ramp was later modified.
Airport director, H.S. Suresh said, "All the problems relating to the ramp has been resolved." Departures from the new domestic terminal may still take a while as more work needs to be done before shifting operations from the old terminal can begin, officials said.

I grew up around there. My #1 son was born in Mountain View. I am surprised La Honda Road is unchanged. Haven't ridden it in 30 years.
I know those silty trails around Mono Lake too. I knew you would get stuck when I read what you were attempting. In 2005 I rode my KTM 950 from Boston to Monterey for MotoGP. I spotted a similar track that appeared to lead to the Mono Lake shore. I got stuck a mile in. Not only that, but I couldn't put the side stand down or even get off the bike because of the tall duffels and all. Plus I was solo as my partners went on up the road to Hwy 395.
Sheesh...what now?
Well, I knew enough not to spin the tire deeper so I gently rocked the bike out using the clutch. Turning around was about as much fun, but I was able to get back to tar eventually.
I was told later in that part of the country the dirt all lava cinder or something like that. It's not really soil or sand. I agree, it is bottomless, whatever it is.
I have a hard time imagining you were stepping out the back end of that 500lb monster like a dirt bike, but hey...you're young and foolish. It took me years of dirtbiking around those parts to learn to slide a motorcycle and none of them weighed more than 250lb!
Looking for more updates. I am most interested in your take on the country once you begin your eastern path home. Hope you get a chance to ride parts of the CDR, but I think you'll need tracks for that. It's a good route for the big bikes.

Antibacterial surfaces such as silver and copper coated areas reduce risk of bacterial growth considerably. In this study, wire arc spraying has been utilized to produce an antibacterial copper coating with ultrafine microstructure on stainless steel substrate. The chemical composition, microstructure, and surface morphology of copper coatings were characterized with x-ray diffraction and scanning electron microscope. Determination of thickness and adhesion of the coating were investigated. The antibacterial property of copper coatings was analyzed by both gram negative Escherichia coli NCTC 10418 and gram positive Staphylococcus aureus NCTC 11047. The antibacterial performance of coatings was compared to that of stainless steel 316 and a micrograin structure of the commercially available copper. Results indicated that the as-sprayed copper coatings have excellent antibacterial behavior compared to stainless steel and micrograin copper, which can be attributed to the presence of the ultrafine grain size, micropores, and crystallographic defects in the microstructure.

On newly-leaked mixtape cut In Your Arms Tonight, the artist pulls off a similarly innovative transformation, using '80s rockers Cutting Crew's (I Just) Died in Your Arms Tonight as a springboard for a heartbroken ballad of his own. Featuring the piano-led production of Kerry "Krucial" Brothers, this moody selection is just one of many quality cuts to be found on Mateo's Love & Sadiums mixtape, released in March and available here for free download.

Shut the water off to it. Carefully moved the refrigerator away from the wall to avoid damage to the copper piped water. Removed the cardboard cover at the bottom and rear. Layed a towel down to catch water. unscrewed the copper water line from the leaky double valve unit. Removed the old double valve unit by unscrewing the single support screw. Installed the new unit in reverse order without following the directions that suggested using the old support structure. Took the opportunity to vacuum the cooling coils while back there, but broke an impeller on the cooling fan which is requiring further maintenance. Be careful!

The man, who identified himself as "Dave", was admitted to

Last night, upon arrival at hospital, he could only utter his

Brazier said. The circumstances surrounding his condition
were not being treated as suspicious.
