Hello everyone.
The federal census of 1940 has solved the problem of Faye Pepitone.
She was the sister of Celia (Cohen) Frecentese.
Faye, Sara Cohen and Celia were daughters of Abraham Nana Cohen and of Jennie Adel Talmod.
Abraham was born in Syria and moved to New York before 1917.
Faye (Fannie) was born in Pittsburg, Pennsylvania December 18, 1921, Celia (Sylvia), born in Brooklyn, New York April 28, 1924.
Faye (Fannie) married Pepitone.
Faye died in January 1995 in New York at 326 Cross Bay Blvd, 11693 Far Rockaway, Queens..
I'm looking for the heirs of Faye.
I try obituary of Faye (Cohen) Pepitone.
Who are the children of Faye?
I ask for help!

|Relationship between repetitive behaviors and executive function in high functioning children with autism

autism spectrum disorder
executive function
cognitive flexibility
inhibitory control
|University of Missouri--Columbia
|It has been theorized that impairments in executive function may contribute to the repetitive behavior symptomatology associated with ASD. This study further elucidates the nature of the relationship between ASD-related impairments in executive function and the manifestation of repetitive behavior. Specifically, we evaluated the hypothesis that the relationship between repetitive behaviors and task performance would be more evident in the presence of multiple executive demands (i.e., inhibitory control & task switching). 22 children (mean age: 14.4 years) with high functioning (IQ > 70) ASD performed an antisaccade task which assessed inhibitory control and cognitive flexibility concurrently and individually. The Repetitive Behavior Scale (RBS), a parent questionnaire that addresses the occurrence of a wide range of repetitive behaviors within the past month, was used to assess repetitive behavior symptomotology for this study. Hierarchical regression revealed significant relationships between repetitive behaviors and performance on conditions of the eye movement task which placed demands on multiple executive abilities. Conditions that required only a single executive ability were not significantly related to the RBS. The relationship between repetitive behavior and executive dysfunction appears to depend critically upon the introduction of multiple executive demands. Within this context however, increased task difficulty may also play a role in strengthening this relationship. Investigating this relationship is one future direction of this line of research.

Monte Vista soph a semifinal surprise
Poway coach Wayne Branstetter, who lost 10 wrestlers to graduation last year, called it a tribute to this group that they are in contention.
"Character, that's what this group is about," he said. "In my 36 years, I don't think I've ever had a team that I enjoy coaching more. I'll take character over talent any day."
If Poway wins the championship, it will be a true "team" title. All 11 Titans who qualified earned team points – even freshman Josh Miranda (103) and Jesse Taylor (119). Taylor dropped his first match, then won three in the consolation brackets. Alex Brown (171) also lost his first match and won four straight.
"It becomes about the team," Taylor said. "We all want a chance to be champions."

The Aam Aadmi Party, which bagged four out of 13 Lok Sabha seats in Punjab, today said its campaign against drug and sand mafia worked effectively in the state.
The Arvind Kejriwal-led AAP, a new entrant in the political sphere, thanked the people of Punjab for supporting its campaign focused on drug, sand mining mafia, women's safety and graft. "The people have shown a way to counter the decadent political culture of our region. It is a truly humbling occassion for us to dedicate ourselves to their democratic aspirations," said Sumail Singh Sidhu, convener, AAP campaign committee, Punjab.
"Our candidates everywhere in the state have received creditable number of votes with four of them winning in Sangrur, Faridkot, Fatehgarh Sahib and Patiala," he said. The AAP would build a strong organisational structure in Punjab and involve people in decision-making process, Sidhu said.

3:20 pm Apr. 10, 2012

5:46 pm Mar. 10, 2012
It seems likely that Patric Young will return to Florida for his junior year than enter the upcoming NBA Draft, but he has not made it clear what he intends to do.

The art and grandeur of burlesque is at its best when it's "classy," when sexy ladies in illustrious, vibrant costumes can entertain and entice you, as the world of the mundane drifts far into the background. That's the impression given by Gypsy Louise, burlesque legend, hall-of-famer, and performer in the 7th Annual Southwest Burlesque Showcase at the Kimo Theater this Friday and Saturday night.
"My favorite thing about it is the way the girls look," Gypsy said. "You know, they put on their makeup and they're beautiful, the way they walk, the way they move. You know, it's sensuous, it's sexy, it's classy."
The annual event, spearheaded by performer Kitty Irrevent and raconteur and Alibi film editor Devin D. O'Leary, prides itself on being part of the decade-long run of an entire neo-burlesque movement.
"The Showcase started out as a way to get us all together and to invite regional performers to come to New Mexico and join us on stage."
In reference to how different burlesque is now than when it first came about, burlesque legend and Miss Nude Universe 1975 winner Tiffany Carter says, "I danced in the '70s until 1989, and left [burlesque] until 2006. I came to the first Burlesque Hall of Fame show here in Vegas! Wow! That got me started again, so in 2008, I was onstage for the first time since then.
"There were a lot of changes. In the early years, you had to have the great body, the big breasts, no tattoos and no body piercings. Your acts were more of a great tease, but also fun shows and comedy.
"Today, it has gotten mixed up with some shows that are what I call 'too dark,' which I don't care for. Also all sorts of body images, lots of tattooed people, and the styles of some gowns or costumes have more of a variety in some shows."
But, to Carter, that's not necessarily a negative attribute to burlesque today, just a whimsical surprise in comparison to the showgirl, gogo-inspired good old days.
"I do feel for the change that all sorts of women (no matter what size) can perform because they are beautiful people, and it helps them to feel better about themselves. I also love the group, duo and more men in shows today. So, for the most part, it's a good thing!"
Featuring the talent and mastery of such performers as the aforementioned ladies, along with dancers like Angi B Lovely, Friday night headliner Jo "Boobs" Weldon, Cora Vette (who is the guest emcee for Saturday night), Cha Cha Velour, Tito Bonito and Albuquerque's own Burlesque Noir, the showcase is a chance for audiences to not only see beautiful women in gorgeous costumes shake a tail feather, but also to see the legends who started it all.
If that sounds like too much to handle, the Launchpad is hosting a Pre-Show Party on Valentine's Day at 9 p.m. to get you into the swing of things with some ease … well, maybe not with ease. But then again, where's your sense of adventure?

- Introduction
- Agriculture and economic development
- Land, output, and yields
- Efforts to control prices and production
- The organization of farming
The U.S. approach
Since the enactment of the Agricultural Adjustment Act of 1933, the United States has had programs designed to limit the production of major farm crops through restrictions on acreage. Since that date it has also offered price supports for major crops such as wheat, feed grains, rice, tobacco, peanuts (groundnuts), and cotton, as well as for manufactured dairy products. It has not had price-support programs for perishable crops or for major livestock products except for a few years during and after World War II.
The price-support method most widely used has been the nonrecourse loan made by the Commodity Credit Corporation (CCC): the farmer may repay the loan by delivering his produce at the support price or "redeem" it in cash if the market price is higher. The amount of particular crops offered for price-support loans has varied greatly from year to year, as have redemptions.
Most of the farm products given price supports were crops normally exported by the United States. Until the mid-1960s the price supports were above the export prices. Unless export subsidies were paid to make up the difference between domestic prices and the prices foreign buyers were willing to pay, exports became impossible. Export subsidies were accordingly paid on such farm commodities as cotton and grains. In the 1960s the support prices for the major export commodities, except tobacco, were established at levels near or slightly below world prices to permit market forces to manage the distribution of supplies between domestic and foreign markets. The lowering of support prices was accompanied by a substantial increase in the size of direct payments to farmers. By the end of the 1960s such payments had come to constitute a high percentage of the cash receipts from farm marketings: in cotton, 60 percent; in wheat, 40 percent; and in feed grains, 30 percent. These payments fell sharply in the late 1970s, largely as a result of increased demand.
In order to receive payments, farmers had to agree to limit the acreage devoted to specified crops. At the beginning of the 1970s the various programs had resulted in the diversion of approximately 20,000,000 hectares of land from the production of major farm crops. The number of acres diverted from cultivation fell sharply, however, in the late 1970s and early 1980s.
A major component of U.S. farm price policy since World War II has been the disposal of surplus produce abroad through the economic aid program. This began as an outgrowth of wartime Lend-Lease, and food exported from the United States made a major contribution to the postwar recovery of western Europe. The Agricultural Trade and Development Act of 1954 provided a base for continuing such activities, and gradually the emphasis shifted from western Europe to the developing countries. One of the important effects was to dispose of farm products that could not be sold either domestically or in regular commercial foreign trade. Without this the farm income and price objectives could not have been achieved except by more stringent output limitations, lower farm prices, and larger direct government payments.
The British approach
Efforts to control agricultural prices go far back in English history, although the early objectives were quite different from those of more recent times. The Corn Laws of the 15th century were designed to prevent prices from becoming too high; restrictions were imposed on the right to export corn (wheat) when the domestic price exceeded a specified level. In 1663 the laws were revised to prevent prices from falling too low, by including import duties when the home price did not exceed a specified level. The general trend, until the Corn Laws were finally abandoned in 1846, was increasingly toward ensuring higher prices for home producers through the payment of export bounties and by the restriction of imports until prices reached specified levels. After 1846 the British followed a free-trade policy for agricultural products but moved to the protection of agriculture and the establishment of minimum prices for certain farm products during the depression of the 1930s. Protection was expanded after World War II by legislation in 1947 and 1957 which sought to support farm prices primarily through deficiency payments to farmers, covering about 95 percent of total output. In most cases the domestic price was free to vary with changing demand and supply conditions; local products competed with imported supplies that were generally subject to relatively low tariffs. The farmer was reimbursed for the difference between his average realized price and a guaranteed price. The Agricultural Act of 1957, which gave the government the right to limit the amount of agricultural output on which deficiency payments were made, was designed to reduce the cost of the program and to encourage domestic production.
The British system of supporting farm prices, while allowing consumers the lowest possible food prices in the world market, was gradually abandoned during the late 1960s as the United Kingdom prepared for entry into the European Economic Community (EEC). When the United Kingdom entered the EEC in 1972, its agricultural prices began to rise to the much higher level prevailing within the EEC. The United Kingdom, moreover, imports more food and live animals from EEC countries than it exports, leading many British to question the value of membership in the EEC.

A study conducted by scientists at the Royal Botanic Gardens, Kew (UK), in collaboration with scientists in Ethiopia, reports that climate change alone could lead to the extinction of wild Arabica coffee (Coffea arabica) well before the end of this century. Wild Arabica is considered important for the sustainability of the coffee industry due to its considerable genetic diversity. The Arabicas grown in the world's coffee plantations are from very limited genetic stock and are unlikely to have the flexibility required to cope with climate change and other threats, such as pests and diseases. In Ethiopia, the largest producer of coffee in Africa, climate change will also have a negative influence on coffee production. The climate sensitivity of Arabica is confirmed, supporting the widely reported assumption that climate change will have a damaging impact on commercial coffee production worldwide. These are worrying prospects for the world's favourite beverage the second most traded commodity after oil, and one crucial to the economies of several countries. The research is published in PLOS ONE on 7 November 2012.
The study, which uses computer modelling, represents the first of its kind for wild Arabica coffee. In fact, modelling the influence of climate change on naturally occuring populations of any coffee species has never been undertaken. Surprisingly, even studies on plantation coffee have been limited, despite the concerns of farmers and other industry stakeholders.
The researchers used field study and 'museum' data (including herbarium specimens) to run bioclimatic models for wild Arabica coffee, in order to deduce the actual (recorded) and predicted geographical distribution for the species. The distribution was then modelled through time until 2080, based on the Hadley Centre Coupled Model, version 3 (HadCM3), a leading model used in climate change research, and the only one available that covered the desired ti

Wall Street analysts have had a tough time keeping up with Intercept Pharmaceuticals Intercept Pharmaceuticals this year and their job didn't get any easier Tuesday as the stock raced out to another 30% gain.
Positive data in a clinical trial for the biotech company's liver disease drug OCA prompted the surge in Intercept's shares and left analysts scrambling to update price targets and praise the results.
"A big deal no matter how you slice it," wrote Citi's Jonathan Eckard, citing the drug's positive results in reversing liver fibrosis and improved safety data in the Phase 2 trial. Non-alcoholic steatohepatitis (NASH), the condition that the drug attempts to treat, "remains possibly the last untapped mega-blockbuster commercial setting, with an elusive drug eluding large pharma for decades," he added.
Nomura upped its target price on Intercept to $456, from $323, following Monday's announcement, and analyst M. Ian Somaiya projected the stock could climb as hihg as $633 in a best-case scenario assuming approval of the drug in 2016, three years ahead of the firm's prior estimate.
The clinical trial results triggered the massive 30% rise in Intercept shares to $308.63 Tuesday morning and at a market cap of about $6.5 billion the company could certainly prove appealing to bigger pharma giants with a hunger for potential blockbusters if its drug pipeline keeps exceeding expectations. The accompanying quarterly loss Intercept announced Monday was ignored by investors with visions of wild success for the company's drug prospects.
It's worth remembering though, that biotech stocks are fickle by nature, often surging on positive clinical data only to give up those gains in subsequent days, weeks or months. But when positive data come through consistently, the launching pad climbs and each surge starts from a higher base.
Intercept itself is a prime example, having enjoyed an incredible 281% gain in a single session on January 9 when a previous batch of positive results were announced, with shares leaping from $72.39 to $275.87 in a single session. The stock has spent the past seven months consolidating those gains until Tuesday's fresh breakout above its 50-day moving average for the first time since late June.

SOUTH BEND, Ind. — The College of Charleston men's golf team shot 7-over in Tuesday's final round and placed sixth at the eighth annual Fighting Irish Gridiron Classic held at the Warren Golf Course.
Charleston carded a three-round score of 297-287-291—875 (+23) behind an even-par round from John Jonas and 2-over rounds from Alex Ellis and William Rainey. The Cougars finished six strokes better than Notre Dame (+29), who hosted the two-day event at their home course.
Houston, the only team to play under par for the week, won the team championship with a tournament-record score of 847 (-5).
David Denlinger shot a team-low 79 in the final round of the Rees Jones Invitational to lead Charleston Southern at the Haig Point Jones Signature Course on Daufuskie Island as the Buccaneers finished 12th overall.
Denlinger finished 44th overall in the tournament standings. CSU finished up the tournament with a team score of 950, 86-over par, in finishing behind tournament champion Kennesaw State, who surged past South Florida and South Carolina to take the team crown.
The Citadel golf team completed the final round of the Myrtle Beach Invitational, hosted by High Point, with top honors on the team going to Eraina Manor, who fired a 160 and tied for 16th place.
Manor had rounds of 83 and 77. The Citadel's Kellie Anderson (79-84—163) joined her teammate as the only Bulldog to fire a round in the 70s, tying for 21st. The pair led the Cadets to a team score of 669 (342-327).
The host Panthers earned the team title with a score of 602 (299-303; +26) followed by Gardner-Webb (618; +42) and Winthrop (619, +43).

The place must be run by a Nazi accountant. The need to look the word "service" up in the dictionary.
I've been there a handful of times, and given the hoopla, it should be better. Still like the deli, although I miss the original version when it was just a four table place in the original brick building on the corner.
Also, Steve's Lunch was great for a Bibimbop. RIP.
I think the worst might be the Brown Jug. It might have good college ambience, but I remember the nachos as having slices of barely melted jack cheese on top of stale tortilla chips. Maybe it's gotten better.
I loved that place. Ate lunch there 2-3 times a week. "B-three, brown rice, kimchi, soup" I never ordered anything else.
I love the Gandy Dancer. A little on the pricey side, but they have a sunday brunch for $20 and it is completely worth it.
my personal favorites - sort of hidden gems:
- the #44 at amer's. best sandwich i've ever had. get it every time.
- the grilled cheese at red hawk. best grilled cheese i've ever had. last year my friends said that no grilled cheese could be that good that it's worth ordering. they then had it and ordered it right away.
i think the posts above canvassed the rest of the good eats pretty well.
There's a pulled pork sandwich at red hawk which is DELICIOUS
Seconding Red Hawk
I've had some darn good food and brews there.
Anybody have thoughts about good sushi? I've been to Miki's downtown, and thought it was alright, but wondered if there were other spots that were worth checking out?
I like Yotsuba a lot. It's on Washtenaw and Carpenter. Good Udon, too.
I'm going to have to try those fish tacos.
Oh my gawwwd you have to go to SaDAHko we have it delivered every Sunday since our chef doesn't cook for us on the weekends!!
/overdramatically heavy LawnGUYland accent girl impression
I am by no means a sushi connoisseur but I do like Sadako's Fireball roll, tempura fried.
Sadako is absolute garbage. I would not recommend for anyone to go there.
Totoro is not only the best sushi restaurant in Ann Arbor, but it's the best one I've ever been to period.
The best sushi place in Ann Arbor is Totoro IMO. Get the Yam Yams they are delicious
Nothing beat's the Michigan roll. Man, I miss that place.
Cafe zola is my favorite by far
Worst (most overrated): Palio
Actual Worst: Manchu Wok at Briarwood
i don't think manchu wok counts as ann arbor food anymore than burger king. there's a manchu wok in virtually every airport in this country.
west end grill is my #2 after cafe zola
No love for Backroom Pizza?
It was awesome in the 90s, but not now. After over 10 years, the price of the slice is still 1 dollar. Common sense says something has to give.
It was awesome in the 90s, but not now. After over 10 years, the price of the slice is still 1 dollar. Common sense says something has to give.
Aha! Cheese slice is now $1.25!!! You have exposed!!!
Seriously, though, for the price you can't find a better slice of pizza in AA. At 2am or for lunch if you're in the math/psych/social work/education departments, that's a decent and very cheap deal.
How is it that noby has mentioned Mr. Spots? Their wings (and waffle fries) were an away game staple when I was in AA (94-98).
Also, pretty hard to beat the unlimited food at mongolian BBQ. I went there for their grand opening and have loved it ever since.
For breakfast, Angelo's is awesome. Great raison bread, great chocolate chip pancakes.
Mmmmm . . . wings (and fries), BBQ and pancakes . . . this thread is making me hungry, as well as nostalgic for AA.
Cheesey waffle fries from Mr. Spots!
Mr. Spots is ridiculous. Their chicken sandwich is amazing too. These days it seems like Quickie Burger 2 doors down gets most of the business (another reason I try to boycott that place as much as I can). Rod's Diner, right next door (mostly known for its Collider's) is also an incredible restaurant which serves some of the best Korean food I've had in Ann Arbor.
good call on spots. can't believe i forgot to mention. wings are great and don't miss the cheese fries. wings may be the best in AA.
There is a Cuban restaurant on Liberty (I think), but I can't remember the name. I went with my girlfriend one time and we both enjoyed it. I had never had Cuban food, but I found it to be an interesting mix of seafood and mexican type dishes.
Right by the blue tractor
Cafe Habana
EDIT: CH is on Washington.
I'm surprised there's been no mention of Pizza House. I've been loyal to their chipatis since college, when it was mostly a take-out place. It's nice now and it's a place we love to take our boys on occasion.
I also love the original Cottage Inn on William and Casey's (yummy BLT)!
I miss Ann Arbor...
Jerusalem Garden (falafel plate)
Amadeus (goulash)
Taqueria la Fiesta (anything+horchata)
Northside Grill (kitchen sink)
Bagel Fragel (multigrain bagel w/ habenero cream cheese)
when i was in school the bagel fragel was a deep fried cinammon raisin bagel dipped in cinammon suger. 3 for $1.00- it was awesome- i still think of bringing it to chicago 25 years later. i miss the bagel factory.
i also miss great places in ann arbor like:
steve's lunch
pizza bob's
del rio
I'm glad Steve's lunch is still there. I used to love the food there, perfect for student budgets.
gone gone.
My aunt and her friends named the fragel and got free bagels for a while. true story
When I go usually I love to hit up Angelo's with my parents as they remember when the owner's parents ran it, and its still just as good. I love a Pizza House pizza on game day. And I still love Charlie's, probably cause of the memories of me and my friends going there in college to order "The Duece".
Very overated and terrible service. Always enjoyed the Earl and Gandy Dancer.
Place is hilarious, actually its usually ok. Definitely not saying it is great, but managers seem to always be cool with something that is wrong and just comp stuff. Also, usually have good drink specials.
Only go there for the bar food though, don't think of it as a great eatery.
It has to be Mr. Spots. Philly cheesesteaks that rival Pats in Philly.
That is truly hilarious. I've never gotten Mr. Spots, but I think I may have to get it someday soon.
I miss the Gargoyle.
I went to the Jolly Pumpkin for the first time not too long ago and it was really good. They have an interesting selection of food too.
Makes the best rouladen I've ever had.
That place was good!
It just moved out to Dexter (well, Scio Township). It is on Zeeb Road right off of the I-94 exit. Still good German food, still lots of beer (including a special 1-liter glass boot of beer for ~$27 [you keep the boot]).
I think it was closed for late 90's through 2001ish.
Now I want some weissbier. Or maybe Dinkelacker Dark. Or Weihenstephaner. Oh sweet nectar...
in august, but I don't think it's actually in Ann Arbor, just near it... personally I wouldn't know, I'm from Dayton, Ohio and I went up there for Fan day.
Experience is LeDog during the seven and one half days it is open.
unusual hours and only take out, but Le Dog soups are very good.
When the weather is right the best meal one can have in Ann Arbor is a double scoop of the Michigan Black Bear at Washtenaw Dairy.
Old guy picks: The Earle (timeless), Knights (townie heaven) and Frasers Pub (fun). While I'm at it, places I miss terribly: The Del Rio (all time favorite hangout) and La Pinata (now a bank)

UWRF Students Receive MNLA Scholarships
FEB. 11, 2007--Three students in the horticultural studies program at University of Wisconsin-River Falls recently received scholarships sponsored by the Minnesota Nursery and Landscape Association (MNLA) Foundation. Scholarship recipients are Brandon Lowry from Oakdale, Minn., Amanda Reckner from West Bend, Wis., and Brandi Werstovshek from Loyal, Wis.
"The UW-River Falls Horticulture program feels very fortunate that the MNLA is a regional organization and supports both Minnesota students and Wisconsin students," said Terry Ferris, professor of plant and earth science at UWRF. "It's a great opportunity for both students and co-sponsoring businesses because many of the scholarship winners go on to provide quality labor for MNLA members."
The MNLA scholarship program recognizes superior students enrolled in horticultural, nursery or landscape studies programs at several area colleges and universities. The scholarships are designed by MNLA and its member companies to help grow future leaders in the nursery and landscape industry.
Three MNLA member firms co-sponsored the scholarships for UWRF students. Bailey Nurseries, based in St. Paul, sponsored the scholarship for Lowry. Law's Nursery Inc., based in Hastings, Minn., sponsored the scholarship for Reckner. Linder's Greenhouses Garden Center Flower Marts & Landscaping, based in St. Paul, sponsored the scholarship for Werstovshek.
To be eligible for an MNLA scholarship, applicants must possess a "C" grade average or better, present letters of recommendation from instructors and employers, and submit an essay stating their career goals and objectives.
The Minnesota Nursery and Landscape Association is the state's largest green industry trade association with more than 1,500 member companies. Members include nurseries, garden centers, landscape contractors, landscape designers, irrigation contractors, commercial flower growers, tree care specialists, professional gardening services, and turf and landscape management professionals.

Trip around Europe
Hello inmates,
I´ve been a lurker of adv forums for some time now, my name is Isaac, I finally registered a few days ago, I´m planning my trip around Europe in October 2014.
Let me tell you a little about myself, I live in Central America, Costa Rica, been here all my life expect for a few months in Austin TX, California and Florida at different times over the past 10 years due to work.
I´m turning 30 in Oct so this is going to be my gift hahahaha, I´ve ridden bikes since I was 12, started with small bikes, scooters, did some motocross then going up to custom choppers and Harleys, I have ridden in the US whenever possible but almost always big cruisers and here in Costa rica to Nicaragua and Panama and all around my country.
I was planning on renting a bike but once I found wheatwhacker service I will definitely be buying since I will be there for 22 to 30 days or more, and will probably sell it back once I´m done or ship it back if I get too attach, I´m also still not sure of what brand or model of bike to buy, I think I want to spent around $2000 to $2500, I want something around 400cc to 800cc nothing too heavy, my idea is to camp around 30 to 40% of the nights while the rest of the days staying at friends or small hotels things like that.
As for the bike I think I will be buying it around July-August so I will be reaching out to wheatwhacker around those dates to get the bike.
I wanted to throw the routes and time-frames I´m thinking about, I´m a big soccer and racing fan so I want to visit a few stadiums catch a game or two, and a couple of race tracks as well, and this is sort of what I had in mind.
Start at wheatwhacker place, drive to Dublin then ferry to Liverpool, from there to Manchester spent 1 night there, then down to London, 1 night there, from there to Paris, stay 1 or 2 nights, then off to Madrid stopping in the middle or at the boarder for 1 night to rest, once In Madrid stay 1 night, then to Valencia 1 night, then to Barcelona, here I want to stay 2 or 3 nights, then off to Monaco going along the cost line, stay 1 or two nights, from there to Milan 1 night, Zurich 1 night, Munich 2 nights, Prague 1 or 2 nights, Berlin 1 night, maybe if time permits Copenhagen, Nürburgring, then Amsterdam here for 2 nights, then Brussels and off to Calais to catch the ferry back to the UK and Dublin, .
I know the amount of nights will probably change depending on many factors while I´m on the road but I want to get a sense of the time frame, does this look doable? or is it too much?

Seems like you're doing all the big cities. Lot's of ringways and traffic congestions. Big cities are more expensive. Don't forget all the splendid countryroads, little mideaval villages & scenery. You must see Europe on the backroads unless you like driving straight on highways between 1 million trucks. My opinion: going from Dublin to Valencia, France, Italy up to Prague in 33 days on a bike? No thx

If you're mentioning the cities as a way to lay out a route, okay. But as Bart says, the best bits are in the countryside.
You could do that trip but IMO you'd be better served to cut it in half or even less. My mantra is to stop and smell the roses, don't roll more than six hours a day unless necessary. The ride IS the destination.

If you want to see the cities, the bike is for sure not the greatest way to do it. Its a waste of money and time. In the capitals parking the bike will cost you as much as I spend max for a room. Use low-cost airlines and or trains.
If riding is the purpose, stay in the mountains or at least on secondary roads. Much more fun.

It sounds to me that you have more or less a city-trip in mind. Going by motor-cycle is for sure not the best way to do this. Have you ever thought of going by train? There is the oportunity to by a Eurail ticket. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Eurail
I do not know the actual offers since they changed a lot in recent years but they had great offers in the 1990is.
You like race-tracks and football? Well, there should be plenty of oportunities to watch one of the big european teams (Madrid, Barca, Chelsea, Munich) and on November 9th there will be the season final of the 2014th MotoGP in Valencia, Spain, which might be worth watching.
If you name the cities just to show a brief direction and you do not want to visit all the cities, I would agree with RTlover, cut it in half or less and focus on just two or three countries.

"High school football, 16 games, that's out of control," he said. "It was 18 weeks for us because we had a scrimmage and a bye. That's a lot, and not just the physical, but the mental to be ready for this."
The second thing? Three years ago, Bosco was just a small Catholic school in Bellflower, modestly successful but basically an afterthought compared with other private school programs.
The comparison that works is Mater Dei. The Monarchs once were a small school in Santa Ana, a city block in the middle of a very urban area, and now they play and win in the highest levels in all sports.
Bosco is a small school literally on a major thoroughfare, Bellflower Boulevard, in a nondescript city on the wrong side of State Route 91, upwind from Lakewood and Cerritos.
Several years ago, Bosco had the chance through CIF-SS releaguing to move out of the tough Trinity League – all those private schools in Orange County playing in the highest division – to the slightly less oppressive Serra League (Loyola, Bishop Amat) or even the Mission (Serra, St. Paul).
They chose to stay.
"We liked the high competitive level, and the kids wanted it, too. To get to be the best you have to play the best," Athletic Director Monty McDermott said.
"This team has swagger, but it's a good swagger, one built on confidence and respect."
The kind of swagger that can be upfront and understated at the same time. Twice during the game, Sean McGrew, the dynamic sophomore scatback who is all of 5 feet 7, was tackled by the Spartans' Kahlil McKenzie, all of 6-3 and 316 pounds. McKenzie tried to make a point by lifting McGrew and body-slamming him to turf. The De La Salle fans loved it, but the first body slam came after a 7-yard McGrew gain and the second after McGrew got a first down. McGrew got up each time and simply said, "More, please."
That, too, is delicious.
Negro caught himself in a moment on the field when he said, "It's great to win the last game in America (this season) against a storied program."
And so did Wadood, in the quieter concourse outside the locker room.
"I will remember this for the rest of my life," he said. "My team. My brotherhood."

... or have sales been slow the past few weeks?
I know people post these types of threads all the time, and sales have been fine for me but up until about 2 weeks ago, haven't got a single sell. Just wondering what it's like for everyone else the past few weeks. Thanks!
My sales have been terrible. But according to TF it's another record breaking month – I don't really see anything selling in any quantity to be honest. Could be like this at this time of year – I dunno as I haven't been selling for a year yet. Some say it's because more themes are added and the same sales are being shared – but I see so many uploading and then some get zero sales and others are just so slow.
I dunno – wait and see I guess.
It's been one of my best months so far, I don't sell a lot in overall but this month has been great for me.

Wolverine & The X-Men #37 [Mavel Comics] Review
Posted on October 29, 2013 AT 08:31pm
It's almost time for the finale of Battle of the Atom! With this issue comes the majority of the ending conflict between the X-Men of all timelines, finally battling it out the way only mutants can: with powers, conflict and angst. With Xorn and the future Brotherhood enacting the last parts of their plan to change their own futures, the future X-Men, original X-Men and the current roster (which includes a rare team-up between Wolverine's team and Cyclops' Uncanny group) are working together to put a stop to the plot and find out how to fix the timeline insanity that has been unleashed through Beasts' bringing the original team to the present.
This is an insane plot helmed by X-writers Brian Bendis, Brian Wood and Jason Aaron, with Aaron taking a turn here in his book. There's been no real discrepancy between the titles during this event, however, with the plots melding into one major arc. This issue brings the final moments of the Brotherhood's plan into play, with the original plan to nab the original kids and send them back to their own time failing. This leads to their Plan B, which so far has not quite been revealed, established or confirmed.
Aaron is doing a great job of moving things seamlessly along with the rest of the books, and his Logan-centric team book has been on great ground in comparison to the rest of the titles helmed by Bendis and Wood. This issue has more action than any other issue, and bringing this into a visual form and still keeping the coherent plot is an impressive feat. The issue did seem a bit sped up though in terms of plot flow, however, since the middle portion of this event have kind of dragged along.
The art team of Giuseppe Camuncoli, Andrew Currie, Matt Milla and Israel Silva have really produced a good looking issue, though. The lines are crisp and clean, the colors look great and it keeps the consistency of the styles in the other books to really keep it a coherent title. This mimicry is much harder than it seems, and all of the art teams lend themselves into this huge event.
Summary: With Battle of the Atom nearly over, the massive amount of X-Men are all coming together and melding into a mass of mutants that all want to beat the hell out of each other. There is a lot of terrific artwork and some of the best characters the X-universe has to offer, but it does feel a bit rushed given all the build-up between the last few issues. With the last issue coming in the titular series, this ends the crossovers for the main books. The repercussions, however, will be felt for much, much longer.
Pros: Great artwork, lots of action.
Cons: Rushed plot.
Grade: B+

China could conduct a maiden flight for the developmental AVIC TA-600 amphibious aircraft in 2015.
According to a report in the People's Daily quoting Fu Junxu, an executive of China Aviation Industry General Aircraft (CAIGA), the design of the four-engine flying boat has been completed, with the aircraft set to enter trial production at Zhuhai in late 2014 or early 2015.
The aircraft, to be powered by four turboprop engines, will have a maximum takeoff weight of 53.5t and a range of 5,000km.
The People's Daily report indicates the TA-600, which was formerly designated the Dragon 600, will be used for passenger transport, maritime patrol, and search and rescue. It adds that the aircraft will be larger than Japan's Shinmaywa US-2, which has a MTOW of 47.7t. The TA-600 will accommodate 50 passengers in the search and rescue role.
If the TA-600 is deployed with the Chinese navy or paramilitary forces, it would also improve access to remote atolls in the South China Sea's Spratly Island chain, a region claimed by several nations including Vietnam, the Philippines, Taiwan, and Malaysia.
The People's Daily story does not specify the power plant the TA-600 will use, or if it will have a boundary layer control (BLC) system similar to the US-2.
The US-2 has four Rolls-Royce T56 turboprops in addition to a CTS800 engine located inside the fuselage just aft of the wings. Originally designed for the AgustaWestland AW159 Wildcat helicopter, the CTS800 is used for the aircraft's BLC system.
The US-2's BLC sits just behind the wing in the fuselage and facilitates the type's short take-off and landing performance capability by generating compressed air around the flaps and control surfaces that allow them to be flown at higher angles of attack. This enables the aircraft to operate in rough seas of up to 3m

Press release from Business Wire
Ad Agency Campbell Mithun to Hire Interns Via "Dear New Twinkies Owners…" Application

 Internship applicants to generate Twinkies ideas as Hostess Brands Inc auctions off the brand

Friday, March 01, 2013
Ad Agency Campbell Mithun to Hire Interns Via "Dear New Twinkies Owners…" Application08:31 EST Friday, March 01, 2013 MINNEAPOLIS (Business Wire) -- Minneapolis ad agency Campbell Mithun (NYSE: IPG) will hire its summer Lucky 13 interns via an online application soliciting brand-engagement ideas for taking the iconic Twinkies brand into the future. Applicants must submit an idea and "Dear new owners of Twinkies" statement; Twinkies is scheduled to be auctioned due to bankruptcy to a new owner on March 13. Twinkies and Campbell Mithun go way back: Campbell Mithun originated the "Where's the cream filling?" tagline when Twinkies was a client nearly 20 years ago. The "Dear new Twinkies owners…" application occurs during Campbell Mithun's 80th anniversary year (and Twinkies were born in the '30s too). Twinkies' parent company, Hostess Brands Inc., recently declared bankruptcy and received approval from U.S. Bankruptcy Judge Robert Drain to auction off assets including the Twinkies brand. (Flowers Foods announced yesterday that it was declared highest bidder for Wonder and other bread brands.) The Twinkies auction is scheduled for March 13; bids will likely be approved at a March 19th sale hearing. Updates are posted at www.hostessbrands.info "So many factors aligned to bring Twinkies into our application process," said Debbie Fischer, director of human resources at Campbell Mithun, which used a Twitter-based application for hiring interns the past two years. "We wanted our process to go beyond Twitter, this marketing case study is unfolding in real time, and the new Twinkies owner will likely be named at a March 13th auction – we take the number 13 very seriously around here." Campbell Mithun will share publicly the Twinkies recommendations submitted by the thirteen finalists selected to interview for the final 2013 Lucky 13 internship positions. Details about the application can be found at www.lucky13internship.com and via #L13 on Twitter. The application process The Lucky 13 Internship application process opens March 1 on www.lucky13internship.com. Applicants must be a college student with a graduation date between fall 2012 and summer 2014. Deadline is 11:59 pm (CDT) on March 29. In 2013, interns will be hired in the following discipline areas – account leadership, media strategy and media negotiations. Creative interns will be provided via the agency's partnership with Miami Ad School, which selects students to place on site at Campbell Mithun quarterly. To apply, applicants submit the following via online application: URL address for their Twinkies recommendation (presented via blog, YouTube, SlideShare, etc. – wherever it lives on the Internet) A "Dear new owners of Twinkies" statement A "Dear Campbell Mithun, hire me because…" note Resume Finalists will be invited to the agency for in-person interviews or interviewed via Skype (for out-of-market applicants), and intern selections will be announced in April 2013 – Campbell Mithun's 80th anniversary. About Campbell Mithun's Lucky 13 Internship Some believe that 13 is an unlucky number. But as Ray Mithun, co-founder of Campbell Mithun once said, "If thirteen is unlucky for some people, it must be lucky for someone else." The Lucky 13 internship program seeks those individuals who can be someone else -- those who have the courage to go against the grain and to believe in original ideas and creative solutions. The interns do real work for real clients, alongside real professionals, earning a real chance to start their careers as full-time members of the advertising community. About Campbell Mithun (NYSE: IPG) Since its founding in 1933, Campbell Mithun has established a national brand-building reputation in the consumer packaged goods, retail, healthcare, financial services and telecommunications sectors and serves clients including General Mills, Land O'Lakes, SuperValu, Chipotle, Great Clips, Schwan's, Popeyes and Toro. Its Compass Point Media unit, established in 1976, makes connections in all the right places with strategists and negotiators who maximize media impact and minimize costs for both media-only and shared Campbell Mithun clients. Campbell Mithun has created client marketplace success for 80 years guided by Ray Mithun's founding philosophy: create client success by making Everything Talk at each point of customer contact.

"I thought I was dreaming!!"
From the moment I arrived in this magical place I knew my last minute weekend plans had been a success. The warm welcome I received from everyone at Villa Michaela made me feel part of the family straight away.
Delicious food (and lots of it!), decedent accommodation, fine company and gorgeous surroundings...what more could you want!? Perhaps a laid back swimming pool, tennis court above the house and freedom to roam the countryside - or indeed nearby historic walled city Lucca - if you so wish? It's all there.
I can't wait to go back, already rounding up my friends and family to join me next year! x

i visionRead MoreIt was Scott Catton?s father who opened the first two-for-one optical store in Ontario in 1989. It was called Wholesale Vision, and the glasses sold there were crafted at the lens-manufacturing facility onsite. The company may have changed its name to iVision in 2000, and it may have a new president?Scott?but it still offers two-for-one specs, perfect for those who misplace things or for for people like Superman, who need to completely change their identity in a hurry. iVision also still manufactures all of its lenses in-house. These lenses go on to fill regular frames as well as frames from designer brands such as Ray-Ban, Hugo Boss, Prada, and Gucci.900 Maple AvenueBurlington, ON CA

Armed with science fiction-grade technology, the friendly technicians help their clients escape the aesthetic unrest caused by excess body hair, unwanted tattoos, and talking cellulite.

Progressive Sports Medicine TorontoRead MoreThe registered massage therapists of Progressive Sports Medicine have worked with numerous athletes from the NHL, AHL, CFL, and NLL, but athletes aren't their only clients. They also treat individuals who have undergone repetitive strain injuries, back pains, and headaches, which the clients perhaps received by working in office jobs or straining too much to lick jam off their elbows. The clinic's team—which includes chiropractors, a sports physician, and a physiotherapist in addition to massage and athletic therapists—doesn't just address injuries that have already occurred. They also attempt to prevent these injuries from happening in the first place, in both sports and everyday life. They work with individuals to identify issues in workout regimens or lifestyles and to head the issues off with massage therapy, custom orthotics, conditioning, and acupuncture.1179 Northside RdBurlington, ON CA
HealthSCANRead MoreNot knowing what's going on with your body can be daunting and stressful. At HealthScan, physicians and certified clinical thermographers strive to ease this burden by providing non-invasive digital infrared thermographic scans to detect early signs of disease and prevent further issues from arising. These scans test physiology rather than anatomy or structure, enabling physicians to gauge the presence of inflammation, infection, or illness. The scans are quick—usually 15–20 minutes—and painless, so they do not affect the patient's routine or ability to go back to swinging from the trees.2400 Brant St.Burlington, ON CA
Rejuvederme BurlingtonRead MoreClients can make fresh starts with noninvasive cosmetic procedures under the guidance of a cosmetic physician. The doctor meets with clients for complimentary consultations to determine skincare needs and possible treatments.

David Dallas - T.S.T.S.
Artist: David Dallas
Producer: Fire & Ice
Album: Unreleased
Avg Rating: 3.0 ( 7 votes )
Sometimes you make a new song because you have a crucial message to get across, because you want to try something no one's ever tried before, because you have something to say and the world deserves to hear it. And sometimes…f**k it, you just want to rap for the sake of rapping. David Dallas' new joint T.S.T.S. is one of those times. For the international emcee's latest release he takes a hazy, rattling beat from Fire & Ice and amplifies it into an opportunity to flex some of his microphone skills. Never fear my serious hip-hop heads, Dallas will undoubtedly be back with some seriously minded, work, but for now, just enjoy a new loose track. Because sometimes you just want to listen to rap for the sake of listening to rap.

Originally written on Pro Sports Daily | Last updated 11/9/14
Rookie center fielder Adam Eaton showed enough in his September immersion with the Arizona Diamondbacks to draw praise from manager Kirk Gibson. "I'd say overall, a huge success in the time he was up here and encouraging what his future is, what he could do for us," Gibson said before the D-backs fell to the Chicago Cubs 7-2 on Sunday. Eaton will miss the final four games of the season after suffering a broken left hand when he was hit by a pitch in an 8-2 victory over the Cubs on Saturday, but he provided a spark at the top of the order in his 26 days after being promoted from Class AAA Reno on Sept. 4. Eaton hit .259 in 85 at-bats, with three doubles, two triples, two home runs and two stolen bases. He also drew 14 walks and was hit by three pitches, giving him a .382 on-base percentage. Catcher Miguel Montero's .394 on-base percentage is the highest on the team. "He makes some young mistakes, yet I like his drive, his determination, the different things that he can do, th...

Thanks you both for the recommendationas on the Alpenglow. I have done some research and like the hi/ low white feature with the warm white. (500/300 lumens) also with the hi low reds for nighttime. I want to use it as the main cabin lighting. Is it overkill to have two of the units. Haleakula is similar size to both of your boats.

In general, what are the pros and cons of a parallel shaft, helical gear design gear reducer (e.g. Chemineer MR or Lightnin Series 98) versus a right angle, helical/spiral bevel design (e.g. Chemineer HT or Lightnin Series 70)? My application is for a top-entering mixer in a vertical batch reactor mixing low to medium viscosity liquids with a maximum output speed of 68 RPM. The reactor is fully baffled with dished heads.
Topic: What are the advantages/disadvantages of a parallel-shaft vs. right-angle gear drive?20 August 2012
Have an insight or suggestion?
Dave Dickey Forum Moderator 300 Posts
Re: What are the advantages/disadvantages of a parallel-shaft vs. right-angle gear drive?20 August 2012 at 3:52pmThe advantages/disadvantages of a parallel-shaft vs. right-angle gear drive are more practical than technical.
The parallel-shaft drive is taller than the right-angle drive. Therefore, the parallel-shaft drive will require more headroom above the mixed tank. The right-angle drive, being shorter will fit with a lower ceiling or roof height.
The right-angle drive covers more of the top of the tank, surrounding the mixer. It the tank had many pipes and sensors in multiple nozzles on the top of the tank, the more vertical parallel-shaft drive may be better.
On the technical side, the parallel-shaft drive may be less expensive for the same amount of torque because helical gears are typically less expensive than spiral-bevel gears (for a right-angle drive). The output shaft speed should be possible with double reduction in either parallel-shaft or right-angle drives. Both types of gears are efficient, so you have little advantage or disadvantage between those choices. Right-angle, worm-gear drives are typically less efficient than the other two types of drives, but not with any problems for the output speed.
If you are dealing with high pressure in a closed tank, bearing design becomes more important, but most pressures can be handled with either drive type.
The right answer probably gets back to the question of space and access to the mixer, not the gear drive features.
The answers by this expert are based on the best available interpretation of the information provided. The consequences of the application of this information are the responsibility of the user. If clarification is needed, please submit a further question.
