HELP! Wilson Amplifeel 6.1 95 vs BLX, one year later
Ok six one lovers: it's been (almost) one year since the release of the new six one 95 from Wilson. So I figured enough people have used it to comment on how it differs from the 2010 BLX model.
I've been using the two frames for the past two months, and just can't decide which one I like most. Please help me figure out the pros and cons. Here's what I noticed about the new one (Amplifeel, 16x18):
-It has a bit narrower head, and slightly better control.
-The static and swingweight are the same, but feels different. It feels lighter than the BLX when you hold it in your hand, but not that much when playing.
-Wilson put less weight in the throat of this racquet. That explains the impression of lower swingweight, but it also makes for a less solid (stable) stick than the BLX. Especially at net on hard passing shots, and when returning heavy serves.
-It has a bit less spin potential than the BLX, but amazing control. That is by far it's best attribute.
-Power is pretty much the same with both racquets -- a lot.
Have you had the same experience? If you played with both, which one do you prefer?
the i prefer the new open pattern 6.1 to the previous blx one. i felt it far more maneuverable and didn't find any stability issues whatsoever. i found it to have power rivaling the k factor open pattern version and overall i'm a fan. the 18x20 version i didn't like as much . for some reason i preferred the previos blx version. it seemed a bit more crisp
What you're probably noticing are differences in factory specs, which Wilson are notorious for. I've owned probably eight or nine 2010/2012 6.1 95s, and there can be massive differences between the same 'model' of racquet. I've seen 7g weight differences between the same model, 3-4 point balance differences, and that's even before we even get into different distributions of mass.
That said, the 2010 and 2012 models do 'feel' different in terms of construction and feedback. The 2012 feels more 'direct' in terms of feedback, the 2010, more 'diffuse', though neither feel uncomfortable. As to which one you prefer, its just a matter of personal preference.
Thank Torres. But don't you feel any difference in terms of solidness or stability? I feel the BLX has an edge over the Amplifeel. I reached this conclusion after practicing A LOT my volleys recently, with a coach that was throwing me rockets at the net.
There are differences in solidity and stability but there can be differences between the two racquets of the same year, so I'd be reluctant to say that 2012 feels more solid than 2010 or vice versa.
I used to have a 2010 95 which felt like a tree log (360g), and currently two 2010 95s which handle beautifully and are fast feeling, and even at 354g and 355g feel lighter and infinitely easier to swing than my BLX Juice Pro at 346g. Neither are ultimately as solid and stable as other 95s I've owned, but I chose a faster feeling head over ultimate mass.
But assuming that the frames are perfectly matched in every way including strings and distribution of mass, it shouldn't be a detriment or certainly not a difference you couldn't adjust to. Personally, I prefer the 2010 6.1s but as I mentioned earlier, its just personal preference, probably influenced by the fact that I've playing with them for the best part of 3 years.
I think finding a 6.1 that matches the specs that you want is more important than whether its a 2010 or 2012 model.
I used the BLX 6.1 for about two years. I loved everything about it except that I had trouble getting it around as well on serve due to the weight. The new 2012 6.1, on paper, seems to be exactly what I would want. When I tried it, over a few months, I felt I could swing it easier than the 2010, but I did not feel it to be less stable, just more maneuverable and thus, easier for me to swing on serve. I would totally have bought it, but the demo bug got me hooked on the new Yonex frames and I fell for the new EZone Xi 98. Alas, I still feel like I should get a 2012 BLX 6.1.
I am demoing the team version and think it plays very good. Even though it is pretty light it still plays pretty solid, and with the terrible inconsistencies in wilson QC you can weight it to the specs you want.
It is more flexible than the six one, and with Amplifeel the comfort is second to none. I only tried the 18x20 (in Canada), and didn't like the string pattern for spin. But maneuverability, control, even stability... a very good racquet. Probably Wilson's best update in 2012.
I play the 2012 version and like many have said it drives me absolutely crazy the spec differences between the racquets. I recently ordered one more and now it has a slightly different paint job as the ones from last year. Has anyone else seen this? I will post a pic if I get the chance.
I think it is in the Amplifeel. I have used the BLX 95, New BLX 95, and both of the new blades with Amplifeel. The Ampifeel models seem stiffer and lack feel. Could be the fiber strips in the handle, but I switched back to the older version. Seemed to have more touch and feel. I know Ampifeel was designed to reduce vibrations, but for me it lacks feel and seems stiff.
Also purchased an 16x19 blade and it felt the same way. For some strange reason came out of my hand several times during a match. I never lose a racket during play, plus had a sore forearm. Something different for sure!
Best 6.1 ever was the Red one, still have a few of them.
I guess I'm lucky. I've got three BLX 2010 and they all weight 348 with a OG and a dampener. The 2012 I have weights 356.
It really helps to put a 18 gauge string in these racquets. For example, you can lower the weight as much as 7-8 grams just by switching from a 16 gauge poly to a 18 gauge multi (RIP control being the lightest). You also gain more headlightness and maneuverability.
I took delivery of mine this week. Unfortunately it weighs 350gms strung, without my obligatory overgrip. :-(
The 2012 team edition is much better than prior 95 team versions. Anyone looking for a easy to swing spin friendly racket with excellent control should give it a try.

By Michael Springer- August 19, 2008
Two weeks ago, we told you about some upcoming Fall tool releases from some of the biggest brands that will be profiled in the September/October issue of Tools of the Trade. Since then, we've found a few more launches that we can reveal.
Milwaukee started two new lithium-ion cordless tool platforms last year but only had one tool in each. The 12-volt subcompact line featured a lone driver, and the compact 18-volt line had one drill/driver. Milwaukee has expanded those two lines with a dozen new tools. The M12 subcompact tools include an impact driver, a mini-Sawzall named the Hackzall, and an innovative motorized copper tubing cutter. The M18 line features both the original compact battery and a new full-sized 18-volt battery. New tools include a Sawzall, circ saw, drill/driver, and impact driver, among others.
Panasonic has an entirely new voltage coming out for their new drill/drivers--21.6-volts. These lithium-ion tools will be the first in a line that will see additions next year. Panasonic's well-established 14.4-volt lithium-ion line also has several new tools coming including a rotary hammer/driver, jigsaw, grinder, and metal-cutting circ saw.
Craftsman has news with the introduction of their 12-volt lithium-ion NEXTEC line. These subcompact tools will start out with a drill/driver, worklight, and combination recip/jigsaw. A cordless nailer will be unveiled soon after. This interesting little tool is said to work like a palm nailer, but is shaped like a 90-degree drill.
Be sure to check out the September/October issue for all the details.

In theory, the amount of heat and gravitational pull from a star, even one that size, would be enough to pull in and vaporize the water around it. We should have seen a very large column of steam rising out of the river, but it is a detail that was probably over looked or not even considered.
Basically, there are three different cuts available throughout the world. First of all there is the well-known theatrical version (1) that has been altered prior to the British cinema release by Sony and unfortunately found its way to nearly all PAL-DVDs (2): One headbutt has been replaced with a normal punch. The US-DVD is uncut. You can find a detailed comparison with pictures here. Then, just in time for the theatrical release of Spider-Man 3 an Extended Cut (3) has been released to the home media market that runs approx. 8 minutes longer than the theatrical version. This extended version features several different kind of new scenes: story extensions, romance, action but in principle this extended version is only worth for the die-hard fan. A detailed comparison between the theatrical versiond and the Extended Cut can be found here. And by the way, the European versions of the Extended Cut are still altered in the same way as the theatrical version, thanks to the BBFC and Sony.

PORTLAND Two men conned a North Portland business owner out of thousands of dollars in a fake Chinese gold scam, police said.
The two suspects came into the Vieng Lao Oriental Food Center at 1032 North Killingsworth on Dec. 21 looking to sell Chinese-style gold ingots for cash, said Sgt. Pete Simpson with Portland police.
The owner negotiated a price with the suspects who provided a sample made of real gold. The victim bought the ingots and took them to a jewelry store only to learn they were fake.
The owner lost thousands of dollars in the rip-off and wants others in the Chinese community to be on the lookout.
The suspects were described as well-dressed Chinese men around 38 to 45 years old with short black hair. They were both around 5-foot-4, weighing 150 to 160 lbs. Both men spoke Mandarin Chinese with a Hunan accent, the victim told police.
Anyone with information was asked to call police at 503-823-0272.

Belgian GP: McLaren's Jenson Button takes pole position at Spa
Belgian Grand Prix 2012, day three
- Sunday, 2 September: Race build-up 12:10 BST; BBC One, BBC One HD and online (video and text). Race live: 13:00; BBC One, BBC One HD, online (video and text) and BBC Radio 5 live. Highlights 19:00 BST BBC Three.
Jenson Button took pole with a dominant performance in Belgian Grand Prix qualifying to head a topsy-turvy grid.
McLaren's Button headed Sauber's Kamui Kobaysahi and Williams' Pastor Maldonado, who was later demoted to sixth for impeding another driver.
Jenson Button
"It's been quite a long time since I got my last pole position in Monaco. It's been emotional"
Lotus's Kimi Raikkonen was fourth ahead Sauber's Sergio Perez, Ferrari's Fernando Alonso, Red Bull's Mark Webber and Lewis Hamilton's McLaren.
World champion Sebastian Vettel was down in 11th in his Red Bull.
But while the championship front-runners struggled, Button was in a league of his own throughout.
He produced three separate laps all within about a tenth of a second of each other and all well out of reach of his rivals.
The 32-year-old, whose last pole position was at Monaco in 2009 when he was driving for Brawn, ended up 0.298 seconds faster than Kobayashi.
"It's been quite a long time since I got my last pole position in Monaco," he said. "It's been emotional. Sundays have been good the last few years, but Saturdays have not always gone perfectly.
"It's so important to come back after the long break and have a good result. This is close to winning a grand prix for me."
Button admitted he had no idea why he was so fast.
"I really don't know," he said. "All day the car has been reasonably good, and on both tyres the car felt good.
Qualifying results
1. Jenson Button 1:47.573
2. Kamui Kobayashi 1:47.871
3. Pastor Maldonado 1:47.893
4. Kimi Raikkonen 1:48.205
5. Sergio Perez 1:48.219
6. Fernando Alonso 1:48.313
7. Nico Hulkenberg 1:48.392
8. Lewis Hamilton 1:48.394
9. Romain Grosjean 1:48.538
10. Paul Di Resta 1:48.890
"It's difficult to get a lap together this year with these tyres and even with the pole lap it still doesn't feel that great a lap. It's very difficult to do a perfect lap, which is something I struggle with with the way I drive."
The pace of the Williams and Sauber cars was a huge surprise - although they have showed strong pace during the season, they had seemed in recent races to be slipping back behind the established top teams.
Sauber's Kobayashi said: "We had good confidence in [our chances at] Spa. We expected a good weekend, but not to be second in qualifying. We expected a strong result, so we have a good chance in the race."
Raikkonen, who was a strong tip for victory after good recent form, ended up 0.632secs slower than Button.
Alonso, the world championship leader, was a further 0.1secs behind and narrowly ahead of title rivals Webber and Hamilton.
The surprises continued with Vettel, third in the championship behind Webber and ahead of Hamilton, struggling to 11th place.
Vettel did not look quick all day and he was unable to find the pace in his Red Bull to make it through into the top 10 shoot-out. He has a higher downforce set-up on his car like Hamilton, hoping it'll be better for tyre degradation in the race.
It is not the first time Vettel has struggled to make it into the final part of qualifying this year - the team admit that he has not been as comfortable with the car in qualifying trim than during his dominant title season in 2011.
Mercedes driver Nico Rosberg was the big early scalp, qualifying only 18th and being knocked out after the first session.
The German had had a troubled run-up to qualifying, missing three-quarters of the morning session - and therefore his only dry running of the weekend following Friday's rain - with a gearbox problem.
The team needed to replace his gearbox, which earned him a five-place grid penalty and a demotion to 23rd place on the grid.
The stewards found Maldonado, who finished third fastest, guilty of impeding Force India's Nico Hulkenberg in the first part of qualifying and handed him a three-place grid drop as a result.

well done JB but has he sorted his problems or is this another one off 'sweet spot' race? if LH gets his head straight I still think he will score more points in the remaining races than JB
Comment number 57. Posted by john yendleyon 3 Sept 2012 09:48
Yet another action packed GP and JB kept the lead all the way, makes you proud to be british. However , all of the respect for the way JB won the race got a little spoilt when he got out of the car and walked straight passed the man in the wheelchair who just wanted to shake his hand . He strecthed his arm out fully and got ignored. Not good JB.

Belting lap.
Comment number 55. Posted by Kingfisherphilon 2 Sept 2012 13:50
Well done JB! What a circuit! The Spa circuit is a real test, the way Kimi passed Schummi said it all, I sometimes doubt F1 in terms of appeal compared to Moto GP, today F1 redeemed itself,,,,,,,,,BRILLIANT!
Comment number 54. Posted by steve bon 2 Sept 2012 13:33
@53 would be pretty stupid and dull to watch Button passing backmarkers and doing nothing else , plus , the bbc are not in control of what's shown from frame to frame - you'll find exactly the same pictures on Sky during the race.
Comment number 53. Posted by funkymc1on 2 Sept 2012 12:40
Nice of the BBC to ignore the race leader Jenson Button.......joke Corporation
Comment number 52. Posted by nicgm10on 2 Sept 2012 11:58
Wow that's who you want behind you when you qualify pole, what are they odds on Button not making it past the first corner with Maldanado and Kobayashi behind him!
Comment number 51. Posted by steve bon 2 Sept 2012 11:38
The last time so many Germans drove this slowly through the Ardennes , France ended up occupied.
Comment number 50. Posted by Rach1985on 2 Sept 2012 11:24
@46 are you aware that Channel4 wanted the F1 but BBC didn't want that so went to bed with sky instead. You should be blaming the BBC not sky.
@47 yes maybe a little harsh on Koby, he has certainly improved but I'm not forgetting his move on Massa on Valencia, that was koby of old. But yes Maldonado is just a law unto himself.
Comment number 49. Posted by Paul-HalfDegreeC-by2100on 2 Sept 2012 11:13
Raikkonen for me.
Wait `till he presses that "DRS and a half" switch and sails past Button!
Button won`t find a way back past him, fast though he was yesterday. Kimi is the King of Spa!
Comment number 48. Posted by Dr_Adson 2 Sept 2012 10:19
I'm happier when F1 is on Sky, not because of a fan of it - but because it gives me an excuse to watch the races in a pub with a beer or three...
MUCH more enjoyable than giving Murdoch any money!
Comment number 47. Posted by Bungabineon 2 Sept 2012 10:01
also @38 that's a bit harsh in koby, he's a class act who is more often than not very clean whilst being adventurous, unlike Maldonado who is erratic! But he's further down now anyway so hopefully will just impede Vettel a bit!
Comment number 46. Posted by Riggadonon 2 Sept 2012 09:58
"I think it a bit late for that! - I can't imagine there are any serious F1 The BBC would do better to drop the TV Coverage altogether and really work to ace their web coverage, that is where Sky are very weak. The TV war is lost."
There was a TV war?That was no war, that was a one sided massacre perpetrated on the poor by those who have obscene amounts of money. There was no war about it.
Comment number 45. Posted by Bungabineon 2 Sept 2012 09:46
Sky is un-interrupted, but it's also sterile and boring! MartinBrundle is the only good thing they have (and Georgie Tompson obv) but what I never understood was how it went to pay tv when the concord agreement states it must be on free to air??? Did I miss something? Or is the bbc's minor coverage all that's required? I'm trying to get over it but it gets me so annoyed!! Well done JB btw!
Comment number 44. Posted by specialk69-lufcon 2 Sept 2012 09:43
Some of you actually prefer Sky's coverage? Really? The ads during the free practice sessions, Crofty's over excited high pitch screaming, Brundle's cliches and don't even get me started on Simon Lazenby. BBC's coverage may have it's faults, but I still find it to be far superior to anything that Sky has produced this season. and on a far less a budget.
Comment number 43. Posted by Bogdanon 2 Sept 2012 09:40
Benson..how can you put Nico Hulkemberg in 7th place? He didn't even make it to Q3. It should be Webber there. Attention to detail mate...
Comment number 42. Posted by fatClydeon 2 Sept 2012 09:29
Good qualy by Button with his low aero setup, but if it's cold and wet today (could be) he's going to be going backwards at a rate of knots :)
Comment number 41. Posted by coupedevilleon 2 Sept 2012 09:21
Brilliant qualifying by Jenson. Nice to see the form that has eluded him of late return, and show what a world class driver he is.
Comment number 40. Posted by LJon 2 Sept 2012 09:04
@JUANCOLINA Sky don't run ads during the race or Qualifying. They only run ads before and after these events and during Free Practice sessions. I like Sky's personnel a little better than the BBC's, but it costs too much to get the Sky F1 package as thats the only channel I would be watching.

Disappointed....big time
By Goldie
from Moose Jaw, Sk.
I ordered this bag in Vino...loved it at first but sent it back. After 2 weeks of use the shine came off, it turned dull. like it had been through the wash cycle & all the bare leather showed through where the dye came off. I expected so much more from Elliot Lucca. Thank god I did not pay full price for this. Even the reduced clearance price would be too much.
Bottom Line No, I would not recommend this to a friend

Olio di jasmine shine spray - 5 oz
1 Recommendation
Sephora's recommendation
What it is: A spray version of Oscar Blandi's famed Jasmine Oil Serum. What it is formulated to do: This lightweight, easy to use styling spray provides instant moisture and frizz control, thanks to Italian olive oil. Just like the Jasmine Oil Serum, Shine Spray protects hair from environmental damage while strengthening the hair shaft, but it's even more convenient due to it's hands-free application. And with natural ingredients, such as vitamins B5, E, and rice bran oil, you know that the luster and shine you see is the result of deeply nourished hair.

Wasteland 2Wasteland 2 is the direct sequel to the first ever post-apocalyptic computer RPG.
Wasteland 2 Summary
Wasteland 2 Review
It's been a long time coming, but does inXile's post-apocalyptic RPG earn its Ranger badge?
Latest news
Wasteland 2: GOTY Edition will feature 20 different character "Quirks"
A free Game of the Year Edition is coming to PC owners of Wasteland 2 later this year, and it brings with it new voicework, a number of changes to the post-apocalyptic RPG's visuals, most notably a switch over to the Unity 5 engine, and some neat additions to gameplay.
One notable new feature is a number of new Quirks, talents that let players add a bit more flavour and customisation to their group of travelling badasses. Developer InXile has gone into more detail over on the game's Kickstarter page.
Wasteland 2 Game of the Year Edition features "over 4000 new voiced lines and it's still growing"
This summer inXile Entertainment will be releasing the Game of the Year Edition for Wasteland 2, and the PC version is being upgraded for free to this superior version. It's got some serious mutations on the way.
Already revealed is an upgrade to Unity 5 and fancy PBR effects to the environments for better lighting, but the studio is also "redoing all" humanoid models. There's also the new 'Quirks and Perks' trait system.
Wasteland 2 being upgraded to Unity 5 codebase by inXile, allows "better tools for modding"
An apocalyptic landscape is inXile Entertainment's forte, and they're still working on Wasteland 2 with ambitious plans. The team continues looking at balancing issues, but they've got big things in mind.
Wasteland 2 is migrating to the new Unity 5 codebase, which means things previously tied to Unity 4.x Pro will be opened up freely to modders under the new engine. The game is also "getting a facelift."
Wasteland 2 receives "absolutely massive" Patch 6, inXile fix "couple of critical quest bugs"
The latest patch for cRPG Wasteland 2 is available and it's another huge list of changes from inXile entertainment. Steam Achievements are now a thing for Mac and Linux.
Don't worry, you're contracted STD in Arizona will now count properly, and there's now a "large rolling gate" in the Prison HQ to stop accidentally breaking quest sequences. Practically everything's been tweaked.
Huge Wasteland 2 update adds faster travel, memory optimisations and more
There's a pretty hefty new update out for Wasteland 2. Summarising every aspect of it would take me three or four years, but one key change to note is a large amount of memory optimisations which should improve performance on lower-spec machines.
InXile has also added a faster travel option for the world map. Now they add it. After I've spent forty hours or so trudging about the desert at roughly the same speed as a sloth with a sprained ankle, they add it now.

Here are several stories I've been following this week — straight from my social-media feeds.
Net neutrality gets a bump
In mid-May I wrote about the Federal Communications Commission's proposed net neutrality rules and the possible effect on Internet use. If I had waited, I could have just posted a transcript of John Oliver's explanation of things.
Oliver is a comedian, satirist (and Jon Stewart protégé) who worked on "The Daily Show" prior to getting his own HBO show in April. His take on net neutrality, which aired during his show Sunday, is 1) hilarious; 2) totally on point and 3) a perfect example of the power of politics-couched-in-comedy.
Oliver urged viewers (and Internet trolls) to let the FCC know how they felt. When video of the segment went viral (it's closing in on 2 million views on YouTube), it caused so much reaction that the FCC's comment site slowed to a crawl.
The full video is posted on our blog site at Fresnobeehive.com.
A digital swearing-in
Those fearing that e-readers will one day replace books outright got a taste of the coming bookpocalypse (a term I coined just now) last week when Suzi LeVine was sworn in as a U.S. ambassador to Switzerland.
In a first for a U.S. government official, LeVine swore her oath on a digital copy of the Constitution she had loaded on her personal e-reader. (No, it wasn't any sort of super clever product placement.)
LeVine gave several thoughtful reasons why she chose to go the digital route before heading off to her post, the least of which being: "It was what I had."
I lived through the transition from VHS tapes to DVDs and from DVDs to streaming media. This kind of technological evolution shouldn't be shocking. It should be (and is, I suppose) exciting and full of potential.
Still, I'll stick with the cat-chewed copy of David Byrne's "Bicycle Diaries" that I'm reading now.
Side note: The Tower Free Library project will soon have eight "little free libraries" placed outside businesses and residences in the Tower District for those who like analog reading. The bird-house-like boxes will be stocked with "free" books to borrow and return.
Downtown eats
Well, this is something new in downtown eating — options.
A half dozen new restaurants and cafes are open or plan to open on Fulton Mall in the next few months. That includes a crepe place, an Indian restaurant, a burger joint and and a quick-to-go pasta shop.
Downtown revitalization is happening.
Here is proof that there is interest in Fulton and entrepreneurs willing to place a bet on its potential, even against people's negative perceptions.
Still, it points to a major unresolved issue that is key to true revitalization — keeping people downtown after dark and bringing them on weekends.
The majority of these new businesses will cater to the many government and office workers, operating limited hours and only during the workweek.
That makes practical sense.
But it's frustrating for those of us who live (and work and play) downtown and are eager for a vibrant, urban community that includes life after 5 p.m. on Fridays.

Johnny was accommodating when I had trouble making the reservation on Airbnb. The home was warm and cozy. The pics are true to the place. The furnishings were comfortable. The neighborhood was active during the holiday weekend and everyone was friendly. I would stay again on my next visit to the area.
Quick and efficient booking and check-in. Well located to the river and to the Roadhouse Inn. Balcony and grill very convenient!
The place was thoroughly filthy when we arrived. Johnny appeared very concerned, however, and did offer better accommodations and recompense, so I can't fault his concern for guest well-being; his housekeeper, though - not so much. The place was fairly recently renovated and would be plenty comfortable, if it underwent a deep clean. Note that the neighborhood is not the finest in Russian River: we were kept awake by live music at the road house next door, and at one point by what sounded a whole lot like a gun shot. Still, this is a fairly reasonable deal for the area, and certainly close to Guerneville and Armstrong Redwoods.
Johnny made my first Airbnb experience an extremely positive one. He was polite in correspondence, and gave detailed answers to every possible question.
The place is a stylish getaway off the beaten path. It is equipped with wifi, cable, and some good books on the shelf too. The Rio Nido Roadhouse is within walking distance, and they have great bar food and a warm, comfortable atmosphere. I highly recommend spending a day or two here.
Johnny's place was perfect for a winter getaway. A lot of the places in Guerneville have inadequate heating since the area is geared more towards summer vacationers, we were pleasantly surprised to find out this wasn't the case at Johnny's! The kitchen shelves were fully stocked with all the necessities so it made our trip to safeway even easier (Safeway is a 5 min drive away anyway). The bathroom was also nicely stocked, with fresh towels + other necessities. The space is great for a couple, but still big enough to host a few more (we had a few friends come over for lunch and it worked out perfectly). Johnny was was great at communicating and so was Shannon. Overall it was a perfect, stress free getaway!
The reservation was canceled the day before arrival. This is an automated posting.
Great little place a bit off the beaten path. A few delicious spots to eat 5 minutes away in town. Shannon was very helpful & patient guiding me in through the recent rainstorms.

The Central line is a line of the London Underground and coloured red on the tube map. It is a deep-level "tube" line, running east-west across London, and has the greatest total length of track on the Underground. Out of the 49 stations served, 20 are below ground. It is the second busiest line on the Underground.
The railway has had a chequered history. Although the tunnels were bored with the unusual diameter of 3.56 metres (11 feet 8¼ inches), they were not well aligned and it was discovered that the rolling stock, which was already smaller than would be expected for this size of tunnel, would not fit. It is rumoured that the engineers forgot to take into account the height of the rails above the tunnel floor. The problem was remedied by a combination of replacing the bullhead running rails with lower profile bridge rails, and shortening the springs on the rolling stock. The locomotives caused considerable problems with vibration as they weighed 48 long tons (49 tonnes), most of which was unsprung.
In the late 1930s the tunnels were expanded and realigned and the stations lengthened. In 1940, the line was converted to the standard tube four rail electrification. Because of the manner in which tunnel had been enlarged, it was no longer round and for clearance reasons the positive rail within the original tunnels had to be of an unusual shape with the top contact surface 40 mm (1½ inches) higher than normal. This is still the situation today, and the extra height can be observed at most deep-level stations, where the insulating 'pots' stand on small cement mounds. Trains between Liverpool Street and White City must have special positive collectors that can lift higher than normal. In turn the current Central line stock cannot run on any other line, partly because they are operated by Automatic Train Operation have no trip-cocks, and would interfere with other signalling equipment. There are also clearance problems with the gearboxes.
One legacy of the line's building is that the sections under the City were built to follow the geography of the streets above, rather than underneath buildings, to take advantage of the free wayleave offered by the government. As a result there are many sharp bends and curves between St. Paul's, Bank and Liverpool Street. At Bank station, the Central line platforms are so tightly curved it is not possible to see one end of the platform from the other and the traditional "Mind The Gap" message is particularly stressed here.
For several years from the outset a uniform fare of two pence was adopted: the railway was popularly known as the "Twopenny Tube". In July 1907 graduated fares of two pence and three pence were introduced: a one penny fare was added in 1909.
A heritage passenger service started operation in October 2004. A train runs between North Weald and Ongar (not stopping at the old Blake Hall station, because it is in private residence) on Sundays, with a possible extension to Epping in the future. At present, a bus service provides connections between trains and Epping.
A more minor derailment occurred on a set of points at the London end of the westbound platform at White City on May 11 2004, but there were no reported injuries.
London Fire Brigade sent 14 fire engines to the scene, including four urban search and rescue vehicles. The line was closed between Liverpool Street and Leytonstone and re-opened on July 7 2007.
By the 1920s the rolling stock was in need of modernisation or replacement. Given that the then-new Standard Stock was too large to work in the line's tunnels, it was decided to modernise the existing fleet. The end gates were removed and replaced by an extension to the passenger accommodation. Two air operated single-leaf sliding doors were inserted into both sides of each carriage. Reconstruction work was carried out by the Union Construction Company at Feltham.
Additional trains were purchased for the opening of the Wood Lane to Ealing Broadway extension in 1920. These were also temporarily used on the Watford extension of the Bakerloo line.
The 1900/03 stock and 1920 stock were finally withdrawn from service in 1939. With the enlargement of the tunnels and modification of the electrical supply, Standard Stock (displaced from the Northern line by new 1938 Stock) was operated - eventually as 8-car trains following platform extensions.
The Standard Stock became increasingly unreliable during the 1950s. Some had been stored during World War II pending the opening of extensions. Plans for replacement (using a production version of the prototype 1960 Stock) were abandoned; new trains of 1962 Stock (virtually identical to the tried and tested 1959 Stock) were ordered instead. These operated until their replacement by 1992 Stock in the early 1990s.
The Epping-Ongar branch was not electrified until 1957, prior to which the service was operated on behalf of London Transport by British Railways using steam hauled coaches. Upon electrification, two-car sets of 1935 Stock were initially used, later replaced by 4-car sets of 1962 Stock specially modified to cope with the limited current. The section closed in 1994 - see Epping Ongar Railway.
In common with virtually all other Underground lines, the Central line is worked by a single type of rolling stock. The 1992 Tube Stock was introduced gradually from April 1993 to February 17 1995, and was the first in London to introduce automated announcement of the next station and connections available. The 1992 stock is painted in the standard red, white and blue Underground livery and runs in 8-car sets.
In 1996 the line was fitted with Automatic Train Operation, and this was brought into service in sections over the next few years.
The TFL line diagram is available online.

The Greater London boundary with Essex is at Grange Hill
Terminates at Woodford [see Ongar Branch] (except for rush hours)
The Greater London boundary with Essex is between Woodford and Buckhurst Hill
Note: the remaining stations to Ongar were served by a shuttle service from Epping.
If the Chelsea-Hackney line is built then it is intended that it will take over the Epping branch of the Central line. Current hopes are that this will be completed by 2025.
It would be possible to provide an interchange with London Overground at Shoreditch High Street station which is due to open in 2010 but current thinking is that the disadvantages to existing passengers outweigh the benefits.
On the 11 May 2008 a petition for the government to fund London Underground for the re-extension of the Central line to Ongar via North Weald opened. Proposals for the stations to bring more revenue are in planning. The deadline for signing the petition is the 11 December 2008. It is available to sign online

Well I didn't get to mine before it installed the update. Noticed no one talked about what it actually did. Quick look shows there is more to the "more" menu now. Now in settings you also see sounds, Display, Restrictions (what is that about?), wireless network, keyboard. Think these are all new but not sure. Under device, there is now a seperate bar for app storage and internal storage. Seems like Market is not working and root is gone.

Michael Healy-Rae
|Michael Healy-Rae
|Teachta Dála
|Assumed office
February 2011
|Kerry South
|Personal details
|11 January 1967
|Political party
Michael Healy-Rae (born 11 January 1967) is an independent politician in Ireland. He was elected at the 2011 general election to the 31st Dáil Éireann as a Teachta Dála (TD) for Kerry South.[1] Prior to entering national politics, he was involved in local politics in County Kerry and pursued business interests.[2]
Family life[edit]
He is the youngest son of Jackie Healy-Rae, who was a TD for Kerry South from 1997 to 2011, and a brother of Councillor Danny Healy-Rae who represents the Killarney electoral area on Kerry County Council.[3] His mother, Julie Healy, was born in Wilmington, Delaware, but grew up in New York City.[4]
Local politics[edit]
Healy-Rae is a former member of Kerry County Council, and was first elected to the Council at the 1999 local elections, representing the Killorglin electoral area.[5] He retained his seat with an increased vote at the 2004 local elections.[5][6]
Reality television[edit]
In Autumn 2007, Michael Healy-Rae took part in the reality television show on RTÉ called Celebrities Go Wild set in the "unforgiving landscapes" of Connemara. He emerged as the winner having received the largest number of votes from the "viewing public". In June 2011 news broke of a voting scandal, for which journalist Senan Molony received the award for "Scoop of the Year" at the National Newspapers of Ireland's Journalism Awards.[7][8] It was revealed that Healy-Rae had received 3,636 votes from a phone in Leinster House at a cost of €2,600 to the Irish taxpayer, the premium-rate calls being charged on a tariff designed to raise money for charity.[9] Only limited information was available as to how the calls were made. Speculation that an automated dialler had been employed, was discounted by the Irish Independent which suggested they were made over 31 hours using "redial" .[10] The Ceann Comhairle Seán Barrett described it as "an outrageous abuse of facilities", while the Taoiseach Enda Kenny said the money spent on the calls should be paid back.[11] On 29 June 2011, Healy-Rae said that while he was not involved in the calls, he would pay the money back.[11]
National politics[edit]
Healy-Rae was elected in the Kerry South constituency at the 2011 general election when his father Jackie retired from national politics. Along with Michael Lowry and Noel Grealish, he is not a member of the Dáil Technical group.
He was appointed to the board of the Citizens' Information Board in April 2009. He was asked twice to resign his position from the board because of a conflict of interest between his subsequent membership of the Dáil and his membership of a body advising the Minister for Social Protection. After he refused to resign, the Minister dismissed him in July 2011.[12][13]
Healy-Rae missed two-thirds of votes in his first Dáil term, despite being signed in for his expenses on each day a vote was taken.[14]
His political platform includes opposition to tighter controls on drinking and driving.[15] His father and brother have also expressed similar views on such legislation.[16] In January 2012, Healy-Rae proposed changing Ireland's number plate system so that the supposedly unlucky number 13 would be dropped for the year 2013 to "save" the Irish car industry.[17][18]
Healy-Rae has raised The Hum in Dáil Éireann after witnessing it himself while meeting some of his constituents who were "nearly gone out of their minds" with it. The official response he received, was described by Healy-Rae as "away with the fairies gobbledygook."[19]

ISIS is a threat to the world security. Wahhabi extremists such as ISIS brutally kill non-Wahhabis and seize the victims' properties. They are a threat to both Shias and Sunnis. Wahhabi hatred for Shias is well known. However, the majority of their victims in Iraq have so far been Sunnis who refused to convert to Wahhabism or submit to Wahhabi demands.
Despite posturing in Washington against Iran by some politicians who play on the voters' emotions, the United States and its allies cannot alone bring stability into the region. If the invasion and bombing could bring peace, they would have brought peace to Afghanistan and Iraq. After years of Western intervention, both countries are still embroiled in division and conflicts. American warmongers fear peace far more than war for peace might threaten their political standing. To defeat ISIS, the United States has to work with Iran.
ISIS also threatens Iran. For that reason, Iran was the first nation that provided weapons and military advisors in the support of Iraq and its Kurdish region to combat ISIS. Iranian leaders realize that Iran by itself cannot defeat ISIS for the United States and its allies in the region could undo any Iranian victory. Unless the Iraqis rise to the occasion, Iran needs Western cooperation in defeating ISIS.
Evidently, the Iranian policies differ from those of the United States on many fronts. However, one thing is clear that ISIS threatens both countries. The mutual threat to the United States and Iran opens a door for cooperation. And, the success in Iraq might open the door to resolve the Afghan and Syrian conflicts, as well.
Meanwhile, American Arab allies in the Middle East still allow individuals and media through press, television, and internet to inspire, promote, and support organizations such as ISIS. The United States could ask these countries to pacify the provocation emanating form their territories.
Mending the relationship between the United States and Iran is necessary in improving global security. Let us support President Obama's approach to Iran!

I currently have the Tasco OS54 with compass,the Fuji 7x50 with compass, the Steiner III w/ compass, and the Steiner Firebirds.
The Tascos are great with good optics and a nice bag. A little heavy but tough as a brick. I agree that the compass is *very* useful in all sets. It''s unfortunate that these are no longer available. I''ve had mine for about 7 years with no problems.
The Fujis are great probably the lightest weight of any. A pleasure to use even if one wears them all day. Again, get the compass.
I paid about 160 for mine. A great value in my opinion. I wish they had come with a bag.
I got the Steiners to see if they were significantly better.
The Firebirds are nice, 7x30''s, smaller and lighter than the 7x50''s, mine fogged up on one side and Steiner replaced them at n/c.
The Commanders are pretty awesome. They are pretty new so I can''t report on longterm service. They are quite clear and bright in low light scenarios, built like a brick house, excellent compass, no bag and around $800 buckaroos.
Obviously I''m a bino freak. For coastal cruising a good set of binocs and a Garmin 76Handheld have served me well.
Do you have to spend 800 smackers to get a good set. I don''t think so. Should one compromise on quality? Nope.
Get the best you can afford.
Honestly the Fujis'' with compass are probably one of the best values around.
Hope this helps.

So how hard is the story mode/how long to complete?

A garbage pod!? Its a smegging garbage pod!
extremely simple, bonus missions are the only frustrating things at times, but they aren't necessary to complete the story. i think i cleared story mode in half a hour to about two hours, but i did skip most of the cutscenes because it was an absolute snoozefest
I was a little confised by what I was meant to do in spots....the part about hitting both mid punch and adding a command to get some kind of special attack...(forget the specifics)...but there is only one punch button so how the hell do I hit two mid hits at the same time?
Pretty easy mode though. They could have actually used more logic to the story line. Other game companies from Japan manage to do that. DOA seems to have 7th graders writing the stories still IMO.
long and hard!
Oh no! My http://www.gamefaqs.com/boards/570198-basketball-nightmare/ ! :o

about three hours watching cut scenes and such. A little bit longer for you are attempting to do all bonus missions.
JUS FC: 2921-4559-2925 DS Name: moosequito
its not that hard, its more or less an introduction to the game itself. if you've played other fighters or aren't extremely stupid its pretty fun.
GT: Extract Hz
Pretty easy, as for the length, I've yet to finish it yet.
It's hard to sit through, that's for sure. It's like a soap opera written by insecure phallophobic forty year olds. Sponge Bob has more depth.
Martyrdom is the only way in which a man can become famous without ability.

Lol, that pretty much sums it up. Really, save yourself the trouble and skip the cut-scenes, you can finish the whole thing in a couple hours probably if you ignore bonus missions.
That said try to do the easy ones at least, they are all worth titles which are needed for Alpha-152 so you will have to come back to most of them eventually...
lol @ people who don't skip the cutscenes. Seriously the story is absolute garbage and the VA is even worse. How can anyone sit through that crap. This game has a great fighting system but shame about everything else.

40 year old man | Fullerton, CA, USA | Seeking women 27-38 within 20 miles
I want a girl with shoes that cut and eyes that burn like cigarettes.
Writing about myself doesn't come easily, just ask my grant writer who is still waiting for my bio. :) So who am I? Well I am a father of two beautiful girls. That is the most important thing in my life right now, but I also need to find conversation that doesn't center around the escapades of Selena Gomez. Who else am I? I am a lover of music. I could spend every free night in a coffee shop, dive bar or concert hall. There is just something about live music that makes me feel very much alive. I also love a good book, but a fair to mediocre book will do as well. As long as the vampire don't sparkle ;). And with that I have to say that I am also a lover of horror movies :) What do I do? Well the dry answer is that I am a data and support analyst. I spend my days slogging through databases and resetting passwords. The answer that makes me go to work everyday is that I work for a non profit that provides support for homeless support providers county wide. I didn't know how much this would affect me at first, but the longer I work there and the more I learn, the more I want to do. What do I want from all of this? Honestly, I don't know. Probably not the best answer for this kind of site, but I am trying to be honest. I can say that I want to find someone interesting to have fun with. To find someone to talk to, to walk with along new trails, to sing at the top of our lungs to our favorite songs, hmmm... maybe I do know.
Book club , Coffee and conversation , Dining out , Fishing/Hunting , Movies/Videos , Music and concerts , Exploring new areas , Playing cards , Political interests , Shopping/Antiques , Travel/Sightseeing , Video games , Watching sports
Basketball, Cycling, Martial arts, Soccer
I exercise 1-2 times per week.
I like Birds, Dogs, Exotic Pets, Fish
I love dogs, like cats (but I am allergic), and find a definite zen appeal to a nice fish tank.
Middle of the Road
Chain Reaction, The Wiltern, The Glass House, pretty much anywhere I can catch live music.
University of California, Los Angeles, Los Angeles, CA
Photography. Reading. Movies. Music. Life has a soundtrack and I enjoy finding that perfect song. Some bands I like: PIXIES, REM, The New Pornographers, MF Doom, Vampire Weekend, Nick Drake, Brand New, Kevin Devine, Manchester Orchestra.
In my free time, I love to see a good horror movie, or check out a new band, or just sit and read a new book.
Lots... Some authors I follow: Clive Barker, Elmore Leonard, James Elroy, Max Brooks, Neil Gaiman, Warren Ellis, Nick Hornby, Chuck Palahniuk, Christopher Moore...

Minister for Forests B. Ramanath Rai told the Legislative Assembly on Monday that an expert committee will be set up to study the extent of deemed forests in the State. The government will then file an affidavit in the Supreme Court based on the committee's recommendations.
In reply to C.T. Ravi of the Bharatiya Janata Party during Question Hour, Mr. Rai said the government would protect the interests of the poor and the farmers while determining the extent of deemed forests. Earlier, BJP and JD(S) members demanded withdrawal of a list declaring 10.11 lakh hectares deemed forests across the State.
The Department of Forests has declared Kans, Kumki, Bane and Kharab lands as deemed forest and thousands of famers would lose their lands if the list is implemented, said Jagadish Shettar (BJP), K.G. Bopaiah (BJP) and B.S. Yeddyurappa (Karnataka Janata Paksha).
In the Legislative Assembly on Tuesday, Mr. Rai said a revised affidavit would be submitted to the Supreme Court. Wherever required, lands which do not come under natural forest category would be left out and if necessary alternative land would be given to the Forest Department.
Speaker Kagodu Thimmappa, who hails from forest-rich Shimoga district lent support to the debate. He said "kaanu" land, which is used either for agriculture or buildings would have to be declared as deemed forest, if one goes by the affidavit. The members alleged that the Forest Department had prepared the list of land to be included in the deemed forest in their chambers, violating the procedure.
Mr. Rai said Forest Settlement Officers would be appointed in each district to settle all such issues.

NEW YORK (AP) — Sean Hannity's cable television showdown this week with a Democratic congressman has become more than just a verbal schoolyard brawl. It's an opportunity — for money, attention and ratings.
Minn. pol's TV spat a chance for money, ratings
Democratic and Republican advocates are using Tuesday's Fox News Channel appearance by Minnesota Rep. Keith Ellison for fundraising, even as the newly minted feud continues. Hannity continued a discussion about Ellison's career on his show Friday.
Ellison opened his appearance on Tuesday's show by calling Hannity "the worst excuse for a journalist that I've ever seen," and their discussion descended from there. Hannity, who accused the congressman of "ranting," ended the gripping back-and-forth after eight minutes because "our audience deserves better."
The congressman appeared upset by a Hannity commentary just before his appearance that ridiculed President Barack Obama's speeches about fiscal negotiations.
Video clips of the confrontation spread online, and it swiftly became a partisan talking point. Conservative blogger Michelle Malkin tweeted that Ellison, the first Muslim elected to Congress, waged a "verbal jihad," or holy war, against Hannity. Martin Bashir, on his liberal MSNBC talk show, called the appearance "the utter evisceration of Sean Hannity on his own broadcast."
The lobbying group Progressive Change Campaign Committee sent out a solicitation to its supporters, urging them each to donate $3 to Ellison's campaign account or send him a thank you note. By Friday afternoon, the solicitation had raised $21,600, co-founder Adam Green said, with an additional $3,000 for a foundation supporting liberal congressional candidates.
Another liberal group, Democracy For America, also sent out an email to its supporters seeking donations in Ellison's name, spokesman T. Neil Sroka said.
"If you attack a hero of our movement, we're going to come back even stronger," Sroka said.
Meanwhile, the Minnesota Republican Party posted a clip of the appearance on its website and asked for contributions. According to the website, nearly $47,000 of a fundraising goal of $50,000 had been pledged.
