Like a few guys mentioned both the Squadron and Squadron XL use the same LED the Cree XML2 LED the main difference is the size of the housing allowing us to use the high speed spot reflector. This is the same reflector that we use in the High Speed OnX LED Light Bar. Therefore even greater distance can be achieved.
The smaller Squadron is a 3x3" and the Squadron XL is a 4.5 x 4.5". We also have new lenses for the XL to change the different beam patterns since the high speed spot reflector is used in each pattern. There is a clear lens for all spot, a half n half lens( half clear and half wide-cornering) this is the driving/combo, and there is an all diffused wide-cornering light.
The Squadron XL also has a built in 50% mode which will take place of the dimmer. We are working on a wiring adapter to utilize your stock hi/lo switches to activate the 50% and 100% modes.
We also have version of the Squadron for the 2008-2013 KTMs and a version for the 2014 as well. Retail pricing is $374.95 before the ADVrider discount.
Hope this helps let me know if you guys have any questions
Having recently bought the Squadron and dimmer kit.. ugh. I've not even installed mine, all of it is still in box/bags. I wish I'd known you were working on a kit that had a built in dim capability.

Open source syncing, simplified
Keeping contact and calendar data in sync across devices and applications is not a new problem, but it is still a problem. Funambol offers an open source syncing solution.
Funambol is enterprise-level open source software that provides an elegant and powerful syncing solution. To demonstrate what Funambol can do for you, I'll look at an example scenario in which I use a combination of the Mozilla Thunderbird mail client and Lightning calendar module as my primary tool for managing contacts and calendar data on a desktop machine or laptop. While on the move, I'd like to access this data on my mobile phone via its built-in address book and calendar applications.

Re: Paella recipes
Outstanding christian....... thanks.
I suppose we should also mention that a paella pan requires somewhat even heat along a big flat bottom. On a BBQ or woodfire is pretty cool, but I haven't tried one like that yet. It may be neat to try on a beach sometime, but its a lot of ingredients to bring to shore.
A 12 person pan is approx 20" across the bottom and a 20 person pan must be well over 2 feet!! Beautiful, but perhaps impractical aboard.
My little 13" pan works great on the boat galley stove. I was thinking of trying to fashion a larger burner for the rail, but it would be tough. For my bigger pans at home, I have a propane paella burner, which has concentric flame rings to heat the larger bases. I think my burner will hold up to 22". At home, I put it on the stove top and run the propane hose across the counter. Probably a code violation of some kind.

SkiFreeSep 17, 2008 Full Version 7 comments
This is the latest version (1.04) compiled for 32-bit Windows, which should also work on Wine and 64-bit Windows.
SkiFree is a computer game created by Chris Pirih, who was working as a programmer at Microsoft at the time. The object of the game is simple: ski down a seemingly endless slope and avoid the obstacles.
Pirih had created SkiFree in C on his home computer for his own education and entertainment. The game eventually attracted attention of a program manager for Microsoft Entertainment Pack when he noticed Pirih playing it at work, leading to the inclusion of the game in the next Entertainment Pack release under Pirih's consent.
Since then, this wonderful title has been ported to many other platforms including the GameBoy Color. Don't let SkiFree become just a memory - download it today and show the love!
This is the latest version (1.04) compiled for 32-bit Windows, which should also work on Wine and 64-bit Windows.
This is the voice of the Abominal Snowman from SkiFree. It is an Easter Egg that many people have never heard, but the coder wanted everyone to hear.
Oh yeah. I remember this one. I was ****** of by that yeti, or what.
Greatest game ever, to be bundled with a Windows system.
Took me some time to figure out there was no way to bypass the damn snowman. :D
NUUUUUU nuuuu nu nuuuuu >_< You did a spoiler that I never noticed D: .....

Compatibility is defined as similarity in architectural style, quality of workmanship, similar use of materials, color and details. DRAWINGS AND PHOTOGRAPHS. A graphic description should be provided and may be in the form of manufacturer's literature or photographs as well as freehand or mechanical drawings. The amount of detail should be consistent with the complexity of the proposal. Relationships of major architectural features such as existing and proposed roof lines, window sizes and alignment, building heights, roof slopes, exterior elevations for the proposed structure, plans or provisions for landscaping or grading, etc., should be shown as they affect the applicant's house, and neighboring homes. In any case, the sketch or photograph should be accompanied by a written description. The AECC evaluates all submissions on the individual merits of each application. The characteristics of the house type and the individual site are taken into account when evaluating the particular design proposal. LOCATION AND IMPACT ON NEIGHBORS. The proposed alteration should relate favorably to the landscape, the existing structure and the neighborhood. In addition, the proposed alteration should not adversely impact surrounding neighbors. The primary concerns are access, view, sunlight, ventilation and drainage. The architectural control form requires the signature of adjacent Lot owners.

Tough stance in view of overloading
Officials told to start seizing the lorries
Now, even quarry owner will be made respondent
VIJAYAWADA: The Transport Department has decided to initiate tough measures to deal with the problem of overloading of lorries by seizing the erring vehicles and also prosecuting the drivers, the vehicle owners as well as the quarry owners.
Transport officials say that the tough stance has become necessary in the wake of owners continuing to resort to overloading despite high compounding fee imposed by the department. It has been observed by the authorities that the owners are not caring to pay the compounding amount and they do not want to lose quick money that comes in the form of overloading.After noticing the continuing problem, Transport Commissioner Poonam Malakondaiah has instructed the officials concerned to start seizing the sand lorries if they are found overloaded and send the vehicles and the load to the court. The decision has been taken as the collection of compounding fee is found to be of "no use".Deputy Transport Commissioner T. Raghunath said on Thursday that once the vehicle was found carrying an overload, the driving licence of the driver would be cancelled as a mark of tough measures adopted by the department. The driver and owner would be made respondents in the case.
Mr. Raghunath said that the latest instruction was that even the quarry owner would be made a respondent in the case pertaining to overloading and even his quarry lease licence could be cancelled if he was found violating the rules. The Mines and Geology Department was being involved in the overall drive to contain and prevent sand lorries from creating road traffic problems and also damage to roads, he added.

Flora Nocturne is an analysis that compares and contrasts two visual constructs; objective poetic transformation and abstraction. Objective poetic transformation is not a new idea and derives from photographic statements and criticism from the twentieth century. Practitioners from Alfred Stieglitz to Edward Weston to Minor White were pursuant of purity, objective observations and gateways. The construct of abstractions came from painting and influenced not only photography but the art world as a whole in the twentieth century. The theme of this collection explores the tension between representation and abstraction, real and unreal, reality and imagination, leaving the viewers to question, reconcile, and manifest.

 The photographic works in this survey entitled, Constellations, Destinations and Other Meditations, contains approximately 233 photographs from out of 1,794 photographs which were taken over 35 years and spanning 9 geographical locations. The references in the work can be biographical, social and contextual in nature, however, the approach to image capture is mostly purely incidental, intuitive and by chance. In this book three photographic ideas are presented in which the categories such as traditional landscapes, social landscapes and experimental landscapes are explored. These photographic explorations are in the romantic tradition of photography whereas sense of timeless beauty and melancholy are representations and testaments lionizing the end of the last century and the beginning of this present century with the past.

 American Dreaming is a meditation and an exploration of traditional American landscapes. Echoes of the romantic tradition of photography whereas the beauty of nature becomes a transformational state; color, patterns and shapes become experiences that are analogous to another gateway, like the language of music; rhythm, tone and tempo. Classical composers like Ludwig van Beethoven, JS Bach and Ralph Vaughan Williams are few who understood this transformational relationship with nature and who were inspired by the beauty of the natural world in their own compositions. The book design is simple with bookend quotations from Ludwig van Beethoven; Observations of transcendental beauty of nature and the muse of the human spirit. What I call American Dreaming.

Every energy technology has associated risk
Researchers at Durham University have published a major report looking into the dangers of fracking. They say fracking, which involves fracturing rocks to release shale gas, is relatively safe. But drilling boreholes, whether for fracking or not, is potentially dangerous.
Richard Davies from Durham University says there is some sort of risk with every energy technology.
Fracking report released
Researchers at Durham University have published a major report looking into the dangers of fracking.
They say the process, which involves fracturing rocks to release shale gas, is relatively safe.
But they warn that drilling boreholes, whether for fracking or for any other reason, is potentially dangerous.
Full report: Is fracking coming to Teesside?
The issue of fracking is being highlighted on Teesside after it was confirmed that the process could take place there, as well as in parts of North Yorkshire.
Shale gas is present beneath western Redcar, covering South Bank and Grangetown, as well as in Stockton.
Unsurprisingly, it has caused controversy, with some saying fracking is not welcome in the North East, while others claim it could be the boost needed in areas of high unemployment. Our Teesside Correspondent Rachel Bullock reports:
The facts about fracking
Prof Richard Davies of Durham University has been conducting independent research into the controversial drilling technique.
- Richard Wilson
What is fracking?
As fracking, and the controversy which surrounds it, moves a step closer to the region, many people admit that they are still unsure what it means.
So what exactly is fracking and why does it generate such strong feelings both for and against?
Richard Wilson has been looking at the science behind the controversial mining technique.
Fracking: The six approval stages
The licences granted for areas of potential fracking do not give consent for drilling.
Companies then need:
- Landowner(s) agreement
- Planning permission
- Environment Agency permit
- Examination from the Health and Safety Executive
- Consent from the Department of Energy and Climate Change
Teesside fracking: Full statement
Christopher Massey, Cabinet Member for Environment and Rural Affairs, has explained how energy companies would have to go through many stages of permission before they would be able to carry out fracking on Teesside.
Government grants stage-one access to Teesside for fracking
The Government has granted access to land stretching east of Middlesbrough to the western edge of Redcar, covering South Bank, Grangetown and north of the River Tees for the purposes of extracting oil and gas.
Before anyone does that, they must also approach Redcar & Cleveland Borough Council for planning permission.
The council has not received any enquiries from energy companies about fracking.
Howell's U-turn: Your Twitter response
Peer U-turn over "desolate" North East
Lord Howell says he didn't actually mean the North East when he said it had "desolate" areas which would be good for fracking.
He now says he meant "unloved" areas of the North West.
Lord Howell said that the North East of England was not "in his mind at all" and he meant "more the drilling going on off the Lancashire coast".
The Tory peer was forced to apologise on Tuesday after saying in the House of Lords there was "plenty of room" for controversial hydraulic fracturing drilling to take place in the North East without affecting the environment.
He's now says: "What was in my mind was much more the drilling going on off the Lancashire coast. But it came out of my mouth as the North East, which you can blame me for rightly. And that has created a great furore. The North East wasn't in my mind at all."

I'm three weeks and 2 days and its been driving me crazy too. I've been wondering about it because it is not getting any better, if anything it is happening more often. I'm used to getting dizzy from standing up or something, but this is kind of weird because it will just hit me when I'm sitting still or even lying down.

I was going through my file cabinets this week and ended up going through my high school memories too. I think the reason we keep old junk isn't because we need the junk but because we like that it triggers memories that we haven't accessed for years. At least that's what happened to me when I found a folder full of the stuff I had on a bulletin board in my room back in high school. Among the items was a She-Ra mobile, a signed photo of Lisa Loeb, and the nicest rejection letter I ever got.
The rejection letter was sent by Louisville magazine in 1997 when I was a 16-year-old junior in high school. I'd written a personal essay for English class which had Louisville as a focus, and my teacher suggested I send it to the magazine since she'd heard they were interested in submissions from people my age. You can click on the image of the letter below to read it, or you can read the transcription below that.

"So what do you do for a living?" asks a woman I've just met.
"I'm a web site developer." I reply. "I specialize in WordPress sites. What do you do?"
"I'm a writer. I've been doing a lot of advertising copy and ecommerce stuff lately."
"That's cool." End of statement. I do not mention that I'm a writer. I do not mention that I have written two books published by traditional publishing houses. I do not mention that my old blog was so popular that at one point that it was covering my rent every month. I sit down and check my email and wonder, why do I still have such a problem introducing myself as a writer?
One problem is that if I tell people I'm a writer then I have to tell them what books I've written, which means we'll have to have a conversation about my chronic headache and my lifelong struggle with weight. Then come the headache remedies and diet suggestions and oh-my-God please shoot me. This is […]

You may have noticed I've been blogging more frequently. (Please tell me you've noticed I've been blogging more frequently.) I'd like to say this is because I've felt particularly inspired and productive lately, but mostly it's because I don't want to pay my friend Shauna five bucks every week.
Back in December, Shauna posted an entry that mentioned (in parenthesis) that she wanted to "get back on the writing wagon." When I read that I thought, I want to get back on the writing wagon too though not literally because it would be hard to write on a wagon. That's when I proposed the idea that we mutually extort blog entries from each other, though I think I phrased it as "being accountable to one another." Accountability was an important part of my weight loss success when I was actually losing weight, so I hoped it might work as well with writing goals as it did with weight-loss goals. The best part is that once you've written something you can't un-write it, unlike weight loss […]

I stared at many blank Word documents. I spent a lot of time going through my big list of blog ideas thinking, No. Nope. Not that either. That one will take too long. I don't want to spend time thinking that one through. I have no idea what that one even means. When I did pick a topic I would type and then hammer the backspace key into oblivion. Writing is hard, even when you know what you want to say, even harder when you don't. I often wanted to abandon an entry, but would finish it off because I had to meet that damn daily deadline.
Despite all that, or maybe because of it, the experience left me feeling really fulfilled. After I've been writing for a few hours, I get a happy, feel-good buzz in […]

I've gotten thousands of nice comments on my blog entries over the years, but it's the mean comments that I remember best. Fortunately I don't get many nasty comments, but when I do they get stuck to my memory with super glue, whereas the nice comments are attached like Post-It notes, easy to peel off and forget. I tend to be a positive person who focuses on the good things in life, so I've often wondered why the negative thoughts are the ones that get imprinted so deeply. I'd prefer to erase them like an Etch-a-Sketch, but shaking my head back and forth like that only gives me whiplash.
I've got a hunch about why this happens. It has less to do with my attitude and more to do with biochemistry. Research has shown that you make more vivid memories when you are emotionally aroused, and reading an unexpectedly mean comment definitely arouses my emotions. The only time a good comment has created that same passionate response in […]

Possible fleet formation
This is a just a thought and to gather interest. Been playing for awhile and was thinking of forming my own fleet. It would consist of role play, making new friends ( obviously), team play such as missions, fleet actions stfs etc. Now for role play I wanted it to be around the next generation show. Ive seen fleets focus around the 23rd century so was thinking of doing a TNG style role play.

BHUBANESWAR: For many parties fighting the coming Lok Sabha and Assembly elections in Orissa, it is now time to garner votes by promising to provide rice to the poor at a throwaway price.
The Congress joined the bandwagon on Saturday by assuring that if it was voted to power in the State it would provide rice at Rs. 1 per kg. to families living below the poverty line.
Releasing the party's manifesto for the State, Union Minister for State for Coal Santosh Kumar Bagrodia and Pradesh Congress Committee president K.P. Singh Deo said the rice at Rs. 1 per kg. scheme would be applicable to all the families in the backward Kalahandi-Bolangir-Koraput region.
The Congress also promised that the poor families would be provided pulses, salt and onion at a reasonable rate.
In fact, both the Congress and the Bharatiya Janata Party are trying to counter the Biju Janata Dal as the Naveen Patnaik government was already providing rice at the rate of Rs. 2 per kg. to the BPL families.
The BJP promised in its manifesto that if it formed the government in the State, it would provide rice at Rs. 1 per kg. to the poor families. It also assured to provide salt to the BPL families for free and pulses at Rs. 5 per kg.
Both the Congress and the BJP have improved upon their election manifesto for the Lok Sabha polls in the country. While the Congress had earlier announced to provide rice at Rs. 3 per kg. if voted to power at the Centre, the BJP had on Friday assured to give rice to the BPL families at Rs. 2 per kg.
Samruddha Odisha, a regional party fighting the polls for the first time, has also promised rice to the farmers at Rs. 1 per kg.

The breakfast was excellent and more than enough. Staff was very friendly. However the location wasn't very convenient - one need to climb uphill for about 10 minutes or take taxi/mini-bus/bus. Total walk from metro Rustaveli was about 25 minutes. There was a smell of cigarette smoke in my room and I am a non-smoker and can't stand it.

Wait, What? ' The Humble THQ Bundle
I was incredibly tempted to begin this post with a joke about how the charity slider on this Humble Bundle is redundant, because THQ is already basically a charity. That would be mean, though, so I opted to' oops, I already did it. Hm. Shame backspace was never invented. Anyway, the latest bundle of densely packaged humility puts the spotlight on a decidedly non-indie THQ, but oh well. Indie's a pretty terrible word when it's used to write off great games because they weren't coded by a half-person team in a garage-bedroom constantly beset by subarctic winds and ravenous wolverines. So, right then, let's take a look inside.

Michigan Ends Tulsa's Run In NCAA Second Round
May 15, 2011
ANN ARBOR, Mich. - The University of Tulsa women's tennis team saw its season come to a close Sunday afternoon as the Golden Hurricane fell 4-1 to No. 10 Michigan at the Varsity Tennis Center in the second round of the 2011 NCAA Division I Women's Tennis Championship.
No. 22 Tulsa had its 21-match win streak snapped and finished the year with a 26-3 mark. The No. 10-ranked Wolverines (24-4) advance to the Round of 16 and they will face Miami (Fla.)
This was the fourth time Tulsa had participated in the second round, and the Golden Hurricane has never advanced to the Round of 16.
The season finale also saw the end to the careers of Alexandra Kichoutkin and Jo-Anne Karaitiana. Kichoutkin leaves Tulsa with the school record for career doubles victories (91) and she finished just six shy of the all-time record for career singles wins (109).
Michigan won the doubles point by picking up victories at both No. 1 and No. 2. Kichoutkin and Karaitiana fell at the top of the order to the No. 8 pair of Denise Muresan and Brooke Bolender. The junior tandem of Anastasia Erofeeva and Ewa Szatkowska lost 8-1 to the No. 64 duo of Whitney Taney and Rika Tatsuno.
Junior Bonny Davidson and freshman Sam Vickers were able to push their win streak to nine matches when they defeated Mimi Nguyen and Sam Critser 8-5 from the third spot.
The Golden Hurricane was unable to halt the Michigan momentum in singles play.
The Wolverines pushed ahead 2-0 after Szatkowska lost 6-1, 6-4 to No. 82-ranked Taney from the third position.
Vickers got Tulsa on the board with a 6-2, 6-1 triumph over Tatsuno from the fifth position, and she picked up her 19th-straight victory.
No. 8 Muresan defeated No. 109 Kichoutkin 6-3, 6-3 from the top of the lineup, and UM won the team competition when sophomore Michelle Farley lost 6-0, 6-3 to No. 67 Critser at the fourth spot.
No. 81 Bolender was leading Erofeeva 7-5, 3-0 at the second position, and Nguyen was leading Karaitiana 6-4, 5-0 from No. 6.

My partners and I decided we would purchase a home and furnish it just for folks coming to vacation in Albuquerque. We had such a good response that we have since purchased two other homes in the same town house community (listing #'s 180129 and 203791). New Mexico is such a great place to live that we were excited to share to others. Thanks for checking out our properties!
Robert Klumpp purchased this townhome in 2006
We had a demanding list of requirements: - We wanted a home that was convenient to some of the best that Albuquerque has to offer. Great restaurants, shops and museums. - The home had to be convenient to get to (close to the Interstate). - The home had to be in a friendly neighborhood that was quiet and safe. - The floor plan had to provide easy access and sufficient privacy. The Pueblo del Norte town house community perfectly filled all these requirements.
My partner Jana is a great decorator. She has created some marvelous living spaces. The pictures tell the story. Plus, since the home is within walking distance to some of Albuquerque's best restaurants, a great winery and a Starbucks, what more could I ask for?
I enjoyed a wonderful stay for the month of March. The townhouse is lovely, very comfortable and convenient to the Best of Albuquerque. It was a perfect place to relax and take in Old Town, the near-by museums, the Aquarium and Botanical Gardens, and the Rio Grande Nature Center. The unit was cozy and well equipped for all my needs and the owner was quick to respond to any questions. While the garage was a tight fit for my car and access to northbound Rio Grande could be tricky, with practice both were easy to navigate. This is an ideal location for anyone visiting Albuquerque. With the privacy offered by two master suites at opposite ends of the house it is a superb choice for two couples or families with children.
The property was located in a very quiet location. The people who lived in the development were very friendly. The condo was very clean and well cared for. I would recimmend this property to anyone. I hope to go back to stay there again.
We enjoyed staying at the property. It was tastefully decorated and had excellent amenities. We enjoyed watching cable television on those days that were too cold to go outside and chose to sleep in. The kitchen was very useful for making dinner and sitting around the table and talking. The weather was really cold during our stay so we were not able to take advantage of the courtyard and sitting outside.
The master bedroom was a bit cold on the night we stayed there. The heater was running and making the front room uncomfortably warm and our room was cold. It could be an imbalance in the HVAC or it could be air leakage around the external doors. It's an easy fix but it was cold a few nights.
We would definitely recommend the property and will likely stay there again in the future. Thank you for opening your home to our family.
In overall very nice place to stay, clean, enjoyable. The owner easy to communicate. We were happy to stay there. If we go back to visit, will consider again.
We are Albuquerque natives, but have since moved to Phoenix. We still have family in Albuquerque and were visiting for Thanksgiving. This was so much better than a hotel for our needs. My parents were able to come and stay with us while we were visiting the in-laws. We were able to cook and relax in between our visits. And we brought both of our fur babies! They are small so the little courtyards were great for them. I really liked the floor plan. It was perfect for us. As far as Albuquerque goes,you can't beat this location.
My mom and I booked this property during the balloon festival and had a great time. The whole unit was very clean, great amenities, great location and there were a lot of recant up to date brochures and pamphlets about Albuquerque which we appreciated immensely. The only thing is, is that the garage is very tight and at an awkward angle to park our rental car so we had to use the parking lot and the garage door remote opener didn't work. Other than that everything was superb and I would definitely stay here again!!
Ski: Take the scenic Sandia Peak Tramway (the world's longest; about 10 miles away) and ride to the top of Sandia peak for a day of great family skiing. --- Want more? --- Ski Sante Fe (about an hour's drive), visit Taos, Angel Fire or Red River (about 3 hours north) or Ski Apache (about 2 hours south). New Mexico offers some of the best skiing in the country, but don't tell anyone, we like to keep it a secret!
