I don't doubt that overconsumption of dairy is not good for you. But overconsumption of anything is bad. I don't think the goal of that site is to take an objective look at the benefits and drawbacks of dairy consumption and I doubt they'd direct you to any studies that contradict their point of view.

I've found milk to be about a buck cheap at convenience stores these days. Whole Food and Trader Joe's also sell it cheaper than the regular supermarket chains.
I love the stuff, still put away at least two gallons a week. I drink 1% and have since I was in high school. Probably would have clogged every artery in my body years ago if I drank the high octane. Last cholesterol check I had was at 130 so I'm doing good on that front.
My personal "no way in hell I'd touch it" beverage is diet soda. I figure in the next 10-20 years we'll start to figure out what the nouveau sweeteners actually do to your body.

I'm about as common as they come, and I wouldn't be able to answer that question, because I don't drink the stuff. The concept is just too gross. It's like drinking phlegm

The best shoes for growing feet
These children's shoes easily combine science and style
I love shoes—shoes for me, shoes for my husband and now I'm extending my love for shoes to my children.
Finding outfits for them is never complete until I have found the perfect pair of shoes for them. However, it's easy to choose style over comfort, as I am guilty of doing this for myself. With children, it's important to invest in a good pair of shoes for their growing feet—unlike my already formed, calloused ones that can take a beating from six-inch heels every now and then.
Pediped is a brand of shoes I have found that combines good design with a lot of scientific research, and is endorsed by Harvard Medical school. Pediped conforms to the ideal design for good future foot health for growing children, such as a roomy toe box for little toes to wiggle, a flexible sole to move with the child's forming balance and gait, and breathability.
Pediped has several lines for parents to choose from, depending on their child's needs. The Originals and Grip and Go are lightweight and flexible for children still learning to walk, and will help them take their first confident steps.
The Flex line also shares the same characteristics as the Originals and Grip and Go, and are made with lightweight material for better breathability.
My favorite line includes the more fashionable designs that use the same technology but with an added edge. My daughter's first pair was a gold sandal with fringes that went with the gladiator trend. Parents can choose from a myriad of booties, ballet flats and sandals embellished with flowers, glitter and everything to complete your princesses' outfit.
For little boys, I was glad to see that Pediped had a range of little loafers I absolutely love. Pediped, of course, recommends that children start walking in their bare feet. But when it's time to dress up and strut their stuff, Pediped is there to offer the next best thing to bare feet.
Pediped is available at all Mothercare stores in Metro Manila.

500 Mexican villagers flee drug cartel violence
The Cuernavaca killings sparked protest marches in several Mexican cities to demand an end to drug-related bloodshed that has cost more than 35,000 lives since late 2006.
The killings of Sicilia and his friends caused outrage particularly because the victims appeared to have had nothing to do with the drug trade.
Luis Cardenas Palomino, a federal police regional security official, said Wednesday that two of people who were with the younger Sicilia at the time of the shooting had suffered "an assault or a scuffle" with cartel gunmen 10 days before and ran into them again at another bar.
"They were in the wrong place at the wrong time, and they ran into the same people they had had a disagreement 10 days earlier," Cardenas Palomino said.
Police said Radilla, a stocky 34-year-old also known as "El Negro," resisted arrest and shot at police in the Gulf coast city of Coatzacoalcos before his arrest.
Also Wednesday, the Mexican navy said marines had seized ranches, houses, weapons and drugs belonging to the Zetas drug cartel in northern Coahuila state.
The raids Tuesday netted more than a ton of cocaine, and marines arrested a half dozen men who were guarding the drug stash. At another property apparently used as a weekend getaway by the Zetas, marines discovered a 100-yard (meter) long tunnel that was apparently meant to be used as an escape route.
Other properties searched in the raid included buildings apparently used to store drugs and weapons and workshops allegedly used to weld homemade steel-plate bulletproofing onto vehicles.
The navy did say exactly how many properties had been raided or seized.

SACRAMENTO – For the past two years Californians have paid more on April 15, at the cash register and to the DMV. How much more? About $260 each per year, or more than $1,000 for the average family of four.
These increases in the income, sales and car taxes were sold as temporary pain that would be relieved once California's economic engine restarted and the state's monstrous budget deficit was tamed.
But neither has happened.
The economy remains sluggish and the budget gap stands at $26.6 billion over the next 15 months. The state's general fund is estimated to be about $85 billion next year.
So Gov. Jerry Brown is pushing lawmakers to ask voters to extend the taxes for another five years, with most going to selected programs.
Sound familiar? Then-Gov. Arnold Schwarzenegger and lawmakers submitted a similar plea in a special election in May 2009. Voters said no by 66 percent to 34 percent. In Orange County, Proposition 1A lost 74 percent to 26 percent in Orange County.
Brown insists times have changed enough to warrant a new "check-in with the people of California." But so far Republicans have balked at providing enough votes to secure the desired two-thirds majority to place the issue on a June ballot. Negotiations have been running hot and cold for weeks.
A Field Poll released this week showed that 61 percent of voters, including 56 percent of Republicans, want the state to have a special election on the budget. Fifty-eight percent of voters say they would favor extending the temporary taxes.
Pocketbooks as well as principles are on the line.
For example, those with a $20,000 car have paid an extra $125 annually in vehicle license fees. A $500 iPad rings up $5 higher because of a 1 percent sales tax boost. And come April 15, a California family with one child and a gross taxable income of $60,000 in 2010 will send the state $340 more because of higher income taxes and a smaller exemption for dependents.
Those extra taxes would bring in an estimated $9.25 billion, or more than 10 percent of the entire general fund, in 2011-2012, according to the state Department of Finance. The income tax extension and lower dependent care exemption would bring in about $1.9 billion for the current fiscal year, making the total tax package worth $11 billion.
Brown earmarks some of the money to guard against complaints that the new revenues would just fall into the Capitol's black hole. Brown proposes to set aside the increases in sales and car taxes for local governments as part of his plans to shift some state public safety responsibilities, such as parole services, to counties, although this shift won't save the taxpayers any real money. He would dedicate 6.5 percent of all net personal income tax receipts to K-12 schools and community colleges.
Brown and others have warned of even deeper cuts if the extensions are not granted.
Regardless of the tax increases, Brown is proposing to reduce grants for poor families, seniors and the disabled, reduce health benefits while charging higher premiums and co-payments to low-income people, impose deep cuts in university budgets, and roll back subsidized day care for children and the elderly.
The nonpartisan Legislative Analyst, responding to a senator's request, conducted a broad-brush look at how the state could slash the deficit without new taxes beyond Brown's already proposed $12.5 billion in cuts.
The analyst did not take sides. Rather, he outlined a list of possibilities that sweeps in schools, prisons, social services, environmental protection and general government. Combined the potential savings would approach $13.5 billion.

Best Generic jukebox New York 2001 - Cedar Tavern - CLOSED

New York, NY 10003
Feeding coins into CEDAR TAVERN's upstairs jukebox is the musical equivalent of playing sports: The overarching narrative is always the same, even as the details change. To wit: You may regard "Buffalo Soldier" (or "Heart of Glass," or "Going Mobile") as a home run. Naturally, about half of the drunken crowd agrees. There is a common bond thusly formed, although it could not exist without its opposition, Those Who Do Not Like Bob Marley. As if such an opposition were relevant in any way to Legend-soaked reality; as if it was not in essence arbitrary and ultimately meaningless. You can run, but you'll always come back home.

Subject: Fw: Solving the Middle East Problem by a Due
The Israelis and Arabs realized that, if they continued fighting, they would someday end up destroying the whole world. So they decided to settle their dispute with an ancient practice: a duel of two, like David and Goliath. This "duel" would be a dog fight.
The negotiators agreed each side would take five years to develop the best fighting dog they could. The dog that won the fight would earn its people the right to rule the disputed areas. The losing side would have to lay down its arms for good.
The Arabs found the biggest, meanest Dobermans and Rottweilers in the world. They bred them together and then crossed their offspring with the meanest Siberian wolves.
They selected only the biggest, strongest puppy of each litter, fed it the best food, and killed all the other puppies. They used steroids and trainers in their quest for the perfect killing machine. After the five years were up, they had a dog that needed steel prison bars on its cage. Only expert trainers could handle this incredibly nasty and ferocious beast.
When the day of the big dog-fight finally arrived, the Israelis showed up with a very strange-looking animal, a dachshund that was 10 feet long!
Everyone at the dogfight arena felt sorry for the Israelis. No one there seriously thought this weird, odd-looking animal stood any chance against the growling beast over in the Arab camp. All the bookies took one look and predicted that the Arab dog would win in less than a minute.
As the cages were opened, the dachshund slowly waddled toward the center of the ring.
The Arab dog leaped from its cage and charged the giant wiener-dog.
As the massive Arab dog got to within an inch of the Israeli dog, the dachshund opened its jaws and swallowed the Arab beast whole in one bite. There was nothing left but a small puff of fur from the Arab killer dog's tail floating to the ground.
The stunned crowd of international observers, bookies, and media personnel let out a collective gasp of disbelief and surprise.
The Arabs approached the Israelis, muttering and shaking their heads in disbelief. "We do not understand," said their leader, "Our top scientists and breeders worked for five long years with the meanest, biggest Dobermans, Rottweilers and Siberian wolves, and they developed an incredible killing machine of a dog!"
The Israelis replied: "Well, for five years, we have had a team of Jewish plastic surgeons from Boca Raton working to make an alligator look like a dachshund."

A FLOWER'S delicate fragrance is not just a come-hither call to insect pollinators. Some scent molecules act as deterrents to drive away blossom-munching predators.
Ian Baldwin of the Max Planck Institute for Chemical Ecology in Jena, Germany, and colleagues genetically modified petunia plants to silence genes responsible for producing specific scent molecules. They then tested how these altered plants fared in the presence of flower-eating beetles and crickets.
When the production of the scent molecules benzyl benzoate or isoeugenol was blocked, the insects ate several times more of the flowers than they did when they were presented with petunias that hadn't been genetically altered.
To confirm whether it was indeed the scent putting off the insects, the researchers placed vials of isoeugenol or benzyl benzoate next to the genetically modified petunias. Sure enough, the presence of the chemical was enough to deter the insects (Ecology Letters, doi.org/jv7).
The study is the first to demonstrate that scent chemicals are used by flowers to discourage and attract insects. The complex scents of other flower species probably also include repellent as well as attractive chemical signals, says team member Thomas Colquhoun of the University of Florida in Gainsville.

Bummer. I suppose One Bloor East is still an option.
Then again, the point about signing a NDA makes sense too. But you'd think even if that was the case all parties involved would 'no comment' rather than flatly refute the rumours.
Can someone remove the "Apple Store" in the thread title please?
It's gonna be a condo tower, right? Great Gulf?
A sleek Apple store at the site of the old Empress Hotel would be perfect, imo. If they can acquire the HMV building, then may be able to incorporate it into something larger.
A developer would need to acquire properties to the south and/or west in order to get a good sized tower for that corner.

Anything then a flat out refusal by Stollery's would be like coming out and saying yes the deal is done.
None of us are in the discussions of this deal. Say Apple is moving in next winter, what would Stollery's do if all it's employees walk out the door after seeing they won't have a job in a few months.
The store still needs to function properly until any announcement is made.
And there's no way in hell Stollery would make the announcement without Apple's ok.

The Delhi Police, it seems, are determined to highlight lapses on part of the Mumbai Police and the Maharashtra Anti-Terrorism Squad (ATS).
After shocking the Mumbai Police and state ATS with the claim that the recently arrested Indian Mujahideen (IM) operative and Pakistani national, Jia-ur-Rehman alias Waqas Ibrahim Saad alias Ahmed, was in Mumbai a few days before his arrest in Rajasthan, the Delhi Police have said it's no surprise that the two agencies missed him. And the reason given for it is that the photo of Waqas released by the Maharashtra Police doesn't resemble him at all, thereby making it easy for him to travel through the state and country.
"Asadullah alias Haddi, who we caught last year, had told us during interrogation that he and Waqas were involved in the JM Road blasts in Pune. He told us that while he was using the alias Ahmed, Waqas was using the alias Shakir. We then showed Haddi the photo of Waqas issued by a counter-terrorism agency and he said that wasn't Waqas," Delhi Police special cell chief SN Srivastava told dna on Tuesday.
"Waqas looks very different from the photo issued. He hasn't photographed himself since he has been in India."
Police sources also said it was very difficult to recognise Waqas from the CCTV footage procured from the Zaveri Bazaar blast site. "With no clear CCTV footage and a morphed photograph, it wasn't much of a problem for Waqas to travel from one place to another. Waqas had stayed in a Bandra lodge for a few days before boarding a train to Ajmer. In Mumbai, he didn't met anyone from his terror module," said a Delhi Police officer.
Waqas, who hails from Mustafabad in the Punjab province of Pakistan, is the son of a farmer. His great-grandfather had migrated from Amritsar to Pakistan, the police said. "Waqas has always had radical thoughts; his parents could never control him. In 2009, he met one Taj Mohammad from Lashkar-e-Taiba (LeT), who arranged for a 21-day terror training programme for him in Naushera, Pakistan," the officer said.
He added that Waqas not satisfied with the training as he wanted to learn more about assembling explosives. "He also didn't like the treatment meted out to him by the LeT men because he was a Deobandi and they belonged to the Ahl-e-Hadis sect. In early 2010, he came in contact with one Abdur Rehman of Jaish-e-Mohammad, who arranged a 25-day physical and religious training on how to make circuits and bomb for Waqas in Waziristan on the Afghanistan-Pakistan border," said another Delhi Police officer.
He added that after the training, Rehman ordered Waqas to do "action" against India. Waqas was asked to stay in a hotel in Karachi where he would be contacted by "someone". That someone was Riyaz Bhatkal, IM co-founder.
"Riyaz gave Waqas 50,000 Pakistani rupees and told him to go to Kathmandu. He reached Kathmandu on September 3, 2010, aboard Pakistan International Airlines. Interestingly, Haddi was on the same flight but they didn't know each other then," the officer said.
On reaching Kathmandu, Waqas called Riyaz, who gave him a mobile phone number. "It was of Tehseen Akhtar alias Monu, also a planter in the 13/7 case. Monu, who was in Kathmandu, received them and the three entered India via Darbhanga, Bihar," the officer said.

The legacy of Mandela and why it matters
Americans often believe we have more to share with other nations than they have to share with us. The life of Nelson Mandela, and his struggle against injustice, oppression, and socio-economic inequalities, however, demonstrates why we should question this assumption. His journey from revolutionary to president of South Africa to active citizen provides lessons for all of us who value democracy and who yearn for a more active, engaged citizenry.
After retiring from formal politics in 1999, Mandela continued to be an active citizen — focusing specifically on HIV/AIDS awareness and education. When it comes to education, during the past 20 years the government has failed to address the inequalities that exist in the current system. Simply put, a vast majority of nonwhite South Africans attend schools that lack quality teachers or basic infrastructure. Nonwhite South Africans also are less likely to pass their high school graduation exam or to attend university. What this means is that South Africa ranks 133rd out of 142 countries in terms of the quality of the educational system and policy experts have described it as being in a "state of crisis."
Educational inequality is the civil rights issue of the 21st century — not only for South Africa but also for all of us. The question is: what is to be done and what is the role of the ordinary citizen? In Mandela's South Africa it should not be surprising that citizens have taken action and are in the midst of a nonviolent campaign to force the government to meet its constitutional, legal, and moral responsibilities. What many Americans may find surprising, however, is that young South Africans — many of them high school students — are leading this effort.
For the past two years, I have been able to witness firsthand the nature of the education dilemma in South Africa as well as the responses to this dilemma. In 2012 and 2013, I took a group of University of San Diego students to the South African village of Makuleke. We partnered with a local nonprofit, Sharing to Learn, to participate in volunteer work. Makuleke is located in Limpopo province, approximately one hour from the Mozambique and Zimbabwe borders. It is a community that epitomizes South Africa's past and present in that it suffers from endemic poverty, high unemployment, lack of development services, and struggling schools. For example, although approximately 40 percent of those 20 years and older have earned the equivalent of a high school diploma or higher in South Africa as a whole, in Makuleke, only 9 percent of the population has done so.
Yet what Makuleke lacks in economic development and educational resources it more than makes up for with citizens who are committed to overcoming their socio-economic obstacles. Through a partnership with an organization called Equal Education, 15 high school students in this village have formed a group called the "Equalizers." Along with more than 4,000 active members throughout the country, the Makuleke Equalizers meet once a week to discuss the educational inequalities in their schools and to organize campaigns to raise awareness of these inequalities and to take action.

'83 R100RT'd
Snowbum has wiring diagrams of before and after fusing...might be a good thing to copy:
Kurt -- Forum Administrator ---> Resources and Links Thread <---
mine-ineye-deatheah-pielayah-jooa-kalayus. oolah-minane-hay-meeriah-kal-oyus-algay-a-thaykin', buddy!
Thanks Kurt. I only see a single fuse on Snowbums post. For some reason, I thought there were two like my '83 R100, no?
The reason I ask is because when I bought the bike the PO had installed the very cool looking but nearly useless (no, completely useless) mirrors in the headlight bolts. These mirros do not have a nut on the inside of the light, but should. He had inadvertently trheaded the right side into the metal bracket the has the flasher mounted to it and pinches the left turn signals positive wire. So imagine my horror when I got it over to a friends place, still on my trailer and we ran through where-the-heck-are-the turn-signals routine and I noticed the left barely working, then not at all ...and saw smoke coming from the headlight bucket! D'oh! Can't imagine why he wouldn't have removed the headlight to check things first, but he didn't and must not have used turn signals on his next ride. I've since cut down the threaded length of the mirror stem and put a rubber washer with a nut on the inside of the headlight as well as the chromed external nut.
Anyway, smoldered the ignition harness which doubles are the turn signal and brake light harness. So, $100 and 6 hours later, I was enjoying the bike. I'm thinking fusing would prevent the fire which surely would have happened in a rather unsavory, middle of nowhere location, had we not run through the switch locations. Yes?
I thought about PMming you or Mr. Strickland, but figured for the long haul, it might be better to have a searchable post. My searches turned up with a lot of false positives. So this will help.
'83 R100RT'd
plug it in to a high tension line, that will "fuse" the entire harness in no time!
(Please accept my apologies, but in my current mood, resistance was futile so I just went with the flow, not intentionally meaning to appear negative. Normally I am very well grounded but I was overcome by the electromotive forces at work in a moment of weakness; however I should recover in short order).
Kurt -- Forum Administrator ---> Resources and Links Thread <---
mine-ineye-deatheah-pielayah-jooa-kalayus. oolah-minane-hay-meeriah-kal-oyus-algay-a-thaykin', buddy!
A good general fusing for an early, unfused /5 would be to splice in an inline fuse on the wire that supplies battery voltage to the main switch in the head light shell. That is the trip point for all current distributed throught the electrical system.
Both of my /5's, being '73's, have 2 fuses incorporated in the original wiring scheme, in holders attached inside the headlight bucket. If you have access to a later /5 wiring diagram, it should be easy to trace down the points where they terminate and retro-fit accordingly.
Last edited by woodnsteel; 11-02-2010 at 03:31 PM. Reason: spelling
Thanks Jim. What sized fuse do you recommend?
'83 R100RT'd
I just checked the fuses in my white 750. They are rated 25amps. The main thing to consider would be that the fuse needs to be capable of holding up the lights without popping. You might be able to splice in a fuse holder on the small wire on the battery positive. The large positive cable delivers current, un-fused to the starter motor only.
best place for fuses is after the on/off switch in headlight bucket
not between battery and on/off switch
I would not fuse the headlight itself - I agree with older automotive
thinking - that is - when driving at night the headlight should never
suddenly fail because of a fuse - I would rather smoke the harness
and gradually go dim than suddenly go black and into the ditch
In the era of shunt dc generators no fuse was necessary because
if there was a short in the system the field would collapse and
the output decline - thus protecting the generator and wiring if
wiring was sized large enough
Early /5 had no fuses like the prior /2 models had no fuses

As many other posts have undoubtedly pointed out, you haven't paid for a single thing yet. Head Start is still free play and is still betaish in feel. At least they have a Que to let you know when you may get on. Other MMO's just lock you out.
I am sure that they are adding equipment to handle the high load. I think Cryptic wasn't ready for the amount of subscribers that STO has or the amount of beta/head start players. They will get it all sorted out soon, they have good hardware people working hard to fix it all.

Stefan Cox, Sacred Heart
6-3, sr., guard
Cox was the leading scorer for the Class 2 state champion Gremlins. He was one of the best 3-point shooters in the area, developed a mid-range jumper and became a force on defense. In only three years at Sacred Heart, he eclipsed the 1,000 career point total. This season, he averaged 20.3 points, 6.3 rebounds and 2.7 assists.
Chase Lyles
6-1, jr., guard
Lyles was the glue that held the Gremlins together. Whenever his team needed him, he was there. He helped out with his outside shooting, his ability to find the open man and his desire to create a turnover. He averaged 13.2 points, 3.9 assists and three rebounds.
Tanner Oelrichs, Cole Camp
6-5, sr., forward
Oelrichs remained the top big man in the Kaysinger Conference, averaging 19.9 points and 10.1 rebounds. However, he didn't repeat as the All-Area Player of the Year, partially because his team only won 11 games a year after winning 23.
Jacob Schowengerdt, Sweet Springs
6-3, sr., guard
Schowengerdt had another big season despite dealing with a foot injury much of the season. He showed improvement in scoring (25.5 points), rebounding (8.1) and assists (3.8). He helped the Greyhounds go from 18 wins in 2012-13 to 21-7 this season.
Randall Sherman, Warsaw
6-1, jr., guard
Sherman reached both the 1,000 and 1,500 career-point marks in only his junior season. He averaged 26.4 points, 6.1 rebounds, 3.4 assists and 1.5 steals for a Warsaw team that went 15-12.
Dane Apsher
6-1, sr., forward
Apsher was the Tigers' go-to player. He carried his team on his shoulders at times and was a big reason why the Tigers went from five wins in 2012-13 to 18 this season. He averaged 25 points, nine rebounds, four assists and three steals.
Cortlen Austin, Northwest
6-1, sr., forward
Austin was the 7-17 Mustangs' do-it-all performer. He played all over the court, contributing with ball handling, posting up inside, scoring from the perimeter and inside, and defense. He averaged 20.4 points, 9.6 rebounds, 3.1 assists and 2.4 steals.
David Barton, Knob Noster
6-7, sr., center
Barton was one of the top defensive big men in the area. He used his 6-7 frame and his long arms to his advantage, blocking and altering shots from inside the paint. He averaged a double-double on offense: 12.3 points and 11.9 rebounds. He also averaged 2.8 blocks for the 22-3 Panthers.
Dylan Cooper, Tipton
6-0, jr., guard
Cooper took charge of a team that lost the majority of its players from the previous season. He led his team in scoring and provided leadership. He averaged 18 points, 8.6 rebounds, 4.5 assists and 4.3 steals for a team that won its own tournament and the one at New Franklin.
Jimmy Villalobos
6-2, jr., guard
Villalobos put together solid numbers during the season, but his postseason play stood out. He would regularly take over inside and produced a lot of points by finishing his own offensive rebounds. During the regular season, he averaged 12.9 points, 9.7 rebounds and 2.1 assists.
Jacob Bergman, Smith-Cotton
6-6, jr., forward
Bergman gave the Tigers an inside presence this season, and he produced a number of outstanding performances along the way. He averaged a double-double with 11.7 points, 10 rebounds and 2.1 blocks per game. After playing for Applewood Christian, Bergman proved that he could hold his own in Class 5 basketball.
Axton Harding, Green Ridge
6-0, sr., guard
Harding was the Tigers' best all-around player, averaging 22.2 points, 5.7 rebounds, 2.6 assists and 2.7 steals. He led the Tigers in all four categories. Green Ridge went 13-11 this season and gave the state-champion Gremlins one of their closest games of the season.
Seth Johnson, La Monte
5-10, sr., guard
While the Vikings only won six games, Johnson continued to put points on the board. He has been one of the most prolific scorers the past two seasons. He averaged 22.1 points, 4.1 rebounds and 2.2 steals.
Brett Marsh, Knob Noster
6-3, sr., guard
Marsh was a perfect complement for Barton. Marsh, the Panthers' leading scorer, scored 20 or more points seven times, including 27 in a win over Concordia in early January. Marsh averaged team highs with 15.7 points and 2.1 assists. He also averaged 5.6 rebounds for the Panthers.
Keyaire Marshall, Sacred Heart
6-1, jr., guard
Marshall was known more for his defense, often guarding the other team's top player. He held Iberia all-stater Darian Dickey to 12 points in the championship game two days after Dickey had 30 in the semifinals. He had a flair for the dramatic, making key shots throughout the season and postseason. On offense, he averaged 8.4 points and 5.4 assists

It was a February morning in 1988 when a horrified India woke up to pictures of three sisters hanging in their home in Kanpur. In a chilling recall 26 years on, two sisters, this time cousins, were found hanging from a mango tree in Badaun, also in Uttar Pradesh, just a short distance away from Kanpur. Then, it was dowry and suicide; now, it is rape and murder. But the underlying story is the same — of oppression, extreme violence and societal acceptance of gender biases that go back generations and show no signs of ending.
The grainy black-and-white photographs of the 1980s blur into an uneasy haze with the sharp, digitalised colour pictures of today, the overlapping realities telling you that the story of India's women while different from each other is also an unchanging one in a changing India. The decades between the deaths of the urban literate women and the young Dalit teens fuse into one single reality. Society failed them all.
On the face of it, there are few similarities in the narratives — one unfolding in an urban household in Kanpur, the other in Katra Sadatganj village in Badaun district, less than 250 km away. The three sisters struck an anguished chord even before this era of 24X12 television. Unable to bear the humiliation over the dowry demands their father was being subjected to, the sisters, 22, 20 and 18, one morning served breakfast to their parents and siblings and then, after they had left the house, hung themselves from a fan and two hooks in the ceiling with their mother's saris.
"They have left me to live with the ultimate shame for a father....I could not marry them off," the father Gyan Prasad Sahu, an official in Life Insurance Corporation, had told reporters. The eldest, a postgraduate, had been paraded before at least eight suitors but repeatedly rejected, despite Sahu — who earned only Rs4,000 — upping the dowry to Rs80,000. "Stop showing didi (elder sister) around, they told me recently, but I did not know they had meant this," he said.
Their story was what my mind snapped back to as television and newspapers began reporting the rape and murder of two cousins in Badaun. The medieval barbarity of two Dalit girls, no more than children, being pulled out of their homes, raped and then strung up from the sprawling branches of the only mango tree in the village should have no place in a modern India.
But it does, dovetailing all too neatly with Uttar Pradesh's ruling Samajwadi Party (SP) chief Mulayam Singh Yadav's indulgent assertion that "boys will be boys" in reference to the gang-rape in Mumbai's Shakti Mills; in party leader Abu Azmi's statement that women who were raped should also be punished and in Chief Minister Akhilesh Yadav's irritable outburst to journalists following the Badaun incident, "You are safe, why do you worry?"
Uttar Pradesh, and indeed India with all its contradictions, has long been the playground of politicians who have exploited caste and religious fault lines, using the police and administrative machinery to further their ends. And this was once again demonstrated in that dark, powerless night, when three Yadav brothers allegedly dragged away the two girls who had stepped out to relieve themselves.
Their uncle Baburam heard their screams and saw the girls — one being dragged by her hair — being pulled away. But he could do nothing. Nor could any of the other villagers, or the fathers. Hearing what had happened, they had rushed to the house of Pappu Yadav, one of those seen taking the girls away. And the door was opened by the head constable, Chhatrapal Yadav. "When I asked where our daughters were, he said they were inside and that they would be sent back in two hours," the father of one of the girls told a reporter.
"I pleaded with them with folded hands... but he hit me, abused me and asked me to leave," he went on, replaying a scene that should rightfully belong only in a regressive Hindi film of the 1950s and 1960s. The paralysis — borne of years of caste brutality and active endorsement of those who police our systems – was complete.
And so they waited, the dark hours of uncertainty deepening their dread. Until there was a phone call informing them that their children were hanging from the mango tree, a favourite of the children in the area who would swing from its branches.
How could this play out with such impunity? The publicity and the outrage that followed led to five people, the three Yadav brothers and two constables, Chhatrapal Yadav and Sarvesh Yadav, being arrested. Akhilesh Yadav effected a bureaucratic reshuffle at the top and said he would call for a CBI inquiry. And Katra Sadatganj received a flurry of VIP visitors, including Congress vice president Rahul Gandhi. And even former Chief Minister and Bahujan Samaj Party leader Mayawati, who, if reports are to be believed, has not travelled to meet any individual or family since 2007. Could her decimation in the recent elections have anything to do with it?
Sulabh International has announced that it would construct toilets in the village. That would certainly make girls and women more secure, but do little to obviate the underlying contempt inbuilt into India's complex caste structure. Till that happens, girls and women from lower castes will continue to be vulnerable. There has been talk of compensation but the heartbroken father has said he wants nothing, only justice for the two children.
Where would the other despairing father, Sahu, be today, I wonder? Still in Kanpur, still mourning the loss of his daughters who took their lives in a fatalistic acceptance that nothing would change for them? What would his thoughts have been as he saw the lifeless bodies of the two cousins dangling from that tree as curious crowds hovered around, the TV visuals carefully pixelated so the horror comes home, but not quite?
The recall is instant. And how can it not... the chilling visuals of 1988 stayed in the mind, it needed just a quick Google search to fill in the memory blanks. And so will this.
Dowry is still a constant, and so is caste and routine violence against women, each incident following the other with sickening regularity. Behind the two images are the countless untold stories of suicides, aggravated sexual assaults, dowry deaths, murders and more. It should not need the violence of the visual for us to react as a society and individuals. This acceptance... it must stop.

By dinner Mr. Benjamin was sitting in awe
from Frank Ocean (Ft. André 3000) – Pink Matter Lyrics on Genius
André 3000's name is André Laurnen Benjamin. Here, 3k is really awed by the fact he really just let his girl get away from him without putting up a fight
This line may also be a reference to the 1981 film My Dinner with Andre, a movie dedicated to snippets of conversation in a restaurant. At the end of this movie the main characters argue about whether or not their lives are like other peoples' or if they lead dream-like lives

Up to Speed
After being released by the authorities I was slightly shaken, but couldn't help but have a big smile on my face. What a day.
I jumped on I-10, happy to just blast down a smooth interstate and thinking of the big margarita I was going to have in El Paso.
After an uneventful, but much needed no-tell motel I was clean, and ready to head west. My A.D.D kicked in - I decided I wanted a big change of scenery and time zone, so I set out for a buddy's house in Hermosa Beach, CA.
After riding west on I-10, I jumped off onto HWY 70.
I took a detour and checked out Coolidge Dam. The water was obviously very low...
As I rolled into Globe, AZ my rear tire went flat...
I stopped, found the hole, and put 2 plugs in it but didn't think it was going to hold...
Made it about 5 miles, stopped and put 4 plugs in to hole that was now much larger.
This one lasted less then 5 miles.
OK, time to stop being lazy, it wasn't going to get me anywhere...
I took the tire off the wheel to find a huge gash in the inside... not good. My largest patch barely covered it, and I didn't feel very confident about this either.
I did this work on the side of the road with lots of traffic, setting my Hi-Viz CamelBak 150 feet back propped up by my helmet to alert drivers.
I was surprised (kind of) how many Harley fucks rode on by and never stopped... I'm sorry but no matter what bike you're on when I see a guy by himself with his back wheel ripped apart on the side of the road I stop... but that's just me.
The patch lasted 10 miles or so...
Now I was stuck. I was near some campground and was pumping up the tire to try and make it there when this kind soul Mark stopped and asked if I needed help...
Yeah, we're going into Phoenix and can drop you at a hotel near bike shop".... Sweet!
They made room for my bike buy literally tossing one of their bike in the bed of the truck.
It was interesting because this guy was looking at me and talking about how lucky I was to have this freedom taking these kinds of trips, and I was looking at him out riding with his cool sons thinking of what I nice family he had.
I guess the grass is always greener on the other side right?
In the morning I bought a new (crappy Battleaxe) tire and was on my way.
A day on the freeway was boring, but gave me some spacing-out and thinking about weird shit time.
I was just west of San Deigo around sunset
After arriving in Hermosa Beach I went for sushi and drinks, and drinks, then some more drinks near the pier. Without disclosing the events of the evening, I ended up having a great time ( I think) and was very hung over. This hangover kept my in L.A. for another day...
[IMG]the%20GS%20had%20had%20new%20dents%20and%20scratch es,[/IMG]
L.A. to San Fan via 101
I stopped at the Fishermans Wharf and had some chowder and oysters for lunch...
After leaving San Fran I rode up the coast on 1 and camped in near Bodega Bay in the fog. Along the way I picked up some local grass fed beef for another great dinner... hmmm beef.....
It was 40º and sunny when I set out in the morning for a glorious day of riding along the coast.
I was so glad I had a A.D.D. moment in El Paso and rode to the coast when I did, as interesting as Texas was, the 100's of miles of the same brown ladscape and cold temps got real old pretty fast for me. This lush green scenery with the ocean backdrop was just what I needed.
After a great day of casual riding I set up camp at Big Lagoon county park near the ocean.
What seemed like days ago it was full and bright.
Morning sunshine!
Since I was here.... I had been saying I was going to go to Bend OR to visit a friend and today seemed like the day to do it... I get off of 101 onto 99 and head NE. Weather and roads are clear all the way supposedly.
It was so lush and bright green.. very beautiful.
I had studied the weather for some time, had talked to many people coming fro the North, and been in contact with my friends there. Yes, the roads are clear, yes you can make it over the passes.....
Since I was running out of daylight, I decided to take a shorter route over the Cascades to Bend, HWY 138. In hindsight it wasn't the best choice of roads....
The solid ice with gravel spread on top of it lasted about 70 miles.
The funny (now) thing was being terrfied and amazed at the beauty at the same time for so long. It took about 2.5 hours to get over the pass.
As the sun set I was coming down out of the mountains and the temps dropped fast, it was 22º. Again, not the ideal riding temp, but once again the landscape and colors from the sunset kept my mind off it. And the looks from the occasional 4WD truck with snow chains pulling snowmobiles.
Near Crater Lake.
This would be the cop who wrote me a ticket on HWY 97 - he was nice enough and went fast to get me on my way in the cold... not nice enough to just let me off though....
After the ticket I thought I was in the clear, only 60 miles to Bend, I had just enough gas, and was going to survive the cold.
Then came the freezing fog. The last 40 miles were brutal, with ice on my faceshield and very low visibiliy. I rode with my hazards on...
This is what it looked like when I finally arrived in Bend.
After I arrived in Bend and started to thaw out, my friend informed me that a friend of her's was coming to pick us up in his limo to go out.
I thought she was kidding... she wasn't, and I found myself here:
I'm still in dirty camping clothes, no shower to find myself at a swanky bar in Bend where they served Absynthe...
What a night!
I stayed in Bend for a few days and had such a great time, watched Obama take the oath, did some shopping, listened to a cool young band play, and replaced the shitting BT something tire with a Pirelli... I can't beleive I made it over the ice without falling on this tire.
It was nice, but cold in Bend
Though I really didn't want to leave, but there was a break in the weather and a snow storm coming in... time to get back in motion. With some routing help from some ADV inmates in a thread I posted in Regional, I headed south on 97, planning to get back into the Redwoods forest on the coast.
It was 40º when I left, and about an hour into the ride the temp dropped to 34º, ominous looking clouds and fog started to appear, and finally it started to rain.
Upper Klamath Lake in the rain.
The weather was completely shitty, cold and raining.
This whole time I still was amazed by the scenery, cloud formations, and times when I came around a curve, down a hill to a break in the fog revealing the wonderfully saturated countryside.
This was also one of the many moments I though about just how lucky I was to be in good health, live in such a great country where I have a great job, and where I can ride for thousands of miles through such great beauty.
Life is good.
I stopped for a light lunch and to thaw out.
I thought I was done with ice! Wrong.
I made it safely to Prarie Creek State Park, and found a campsite on the beach, after riding down the 6 miles down this snot covered, muddy road. It was worth it.
This campsite was too good to move so I head out unloaded to ride.
While out wandering in and out of Redwoods NP I found myself on this slick, muddy mountain road... where I had a few scary monents including almost going over the edge twice from sliding in the mud.
I stopped and thought about it, and thought about it some more. Time for a change, I'm really gonna hurt myself trying to ride the road bike where I really want to be half the time.
I looked on my phone, had service, called A+S BMW in Sacramento, got Ted on the phone, asked if they had a 800GS in stock, they did, and that was it. I was going to buy a GS.
Could I afford it? well..... I'm by no means wealthy and work my ass off so I can do things like this... but, I can swing it. if they finance me.
So that was it, I would leave very early am and ride on down to A+S....
The last night with the R...
Eating like a king!
I set out the next morning, determined to get to A+S before they closed.
It was wet, and lighty rained most of the way.
I arrived at 3:30, took a test ride, and at 7pm had this new bike, and made a new friend, Ted.
I can't believe I just did this!
I was going to go to a hotel and start working on installing the bags and transfer over my gadgets, but Ted Shred (ADV inmate of course) invited me to his house to work on my bike. Sweet.
We stayed up late getting the bike ready to tour...
The next moring Ted and I took a ride to properly break in a GS....
After a great first day on the GS I stayed at T S's house again, in good company.
The next day tragedy strikes...
After just leaving the dealer where they had adjusted the chain that had loosened greatly, this happened:
I was lucky being right down the street from Ted's, who was there in minutes with a trailer...
A+S did a wonderful job taking excellent care of the bike. Here's the thread so I don't have to get into it here:
Which leads me to the start of this thread.... I ended up putting my new bike on a trailer ( kind of weird for me, but they said the ride sucked this time of year and got nothin' to prove) down to Death Valley with a group of great guy, and met even more while I was there. We had a great time, and I will be riding with this group of guys again...
The Flying Duc !
Good Times.
I am on my way back to Sacramento with these guys to pick up some what are now the most expensive ADV stickers in the world that I've had shipped numerous time to try and catch up with me for the last 5 weeks...
I plan on heading back to coast the before heading south of the border, and then who knows where. I will try to update this as much as possible in the upcoming weeks while I continue the jouney on a 8GS!

Defense Industry Protection
Byline: William Hawkins, SPECIAL TO THE WASHINGTON TIMES
The Chinese National Overseas Oil Co. attempt to buy the American oil company Unocal had a happy ending, with Chevron winning control instead. But Congress is reviewing how foreign takeovers of U.S. firms are monitored and regulated.
Oct. 6, the Senate Banking Committee held a hearing on the Committee on Foreign Investment in the United States (CFIUS), a little-known group created by a 1975 executive order to review foreign transactions' effect on national security and the defense industrial base. Its powers expanded in 1988.
CFIUS is a rather unwieldy organization with 12 members: the Cabinet departments of Treasury, Commerce, Defense, Homeland Security, Justice, and State; and six from the Executive Office of the President, the U.S. Trade Representative, National Security Council, National Economic Council, Council of Economic Advisers, Office of Management and Budget, and the Office of Science and Technology Policy.
Like all bureaucracies, CFIUS has tended to grow as agencies expand their turf. CFIUS started with four members: Defense, State, Commerce and Treasury. With so many diverse constituencies represented, CFIUS has lost its focus.
The most problematic aspect is that CFIUS is chaired by Treasury. Sen. James Inhofe, Oklahoma Republican, has proposed legislation shifting the CFIUS chair to the Pentagon, to ensure national security is its priority.
Treasury's main concern is to support the dollar and maintain stability in financial markets. It thus favors anything that recycles the U.S. trade deficit back into the U.S. economy. If foreign consumers will not buy enough American products, foreign investors must be able to buy American productive assets to bring the dollars back home. Of 451 acquisitions referred to CFIUS between 1997 and 2004, only eight were investigated and only two sent to the president for action.
This inattentive record prompted Banking Committee Chairman Richard Shelby, Alabama Republican, to declare at the hearing: "We have enough insight ... from anecdotal information emanating from press accounts of individual cases, GAO reports dating from 1992, and committee research, to hold firm the belief that improvements to the current system are warranted." Mr. Shelby was unhappy that Treasury sent no one to testify, which lent credibility to his argument the process "is too opaque to allow for the appropriate level of congressional oversight into a process established by Congress with passage in 1988 of the Exon-Florio amendment to the Defense Production Act. That is why Congress has repeatedly tasked its investigative arm, the Government Accountability Office, to conduct studies on this subject. …

Travis Cooper & Justin Cross Pt 1
Justin Cross and Travis Cooper are here together to do a scene, straight to the point. I've had so many followers on Facebook and Tweet me about getting these two together, I figure it is "the season," so why wait. We're gonna have them start with some oral and then do anal. As they undress, we see Travis' new tattoo, the Nike swoosh. He says he got it because he likes Nike and the idea of something athletic appeals to him; note to self: become more athletic. Justin hasn't inked his body yet, but did get his ears gaged; must be a generational thing, guys getting both ears done. Oh well, this Straight Rent Boys video is fun, and as always, there's more "to cum." In their white undies, a personal favorite, I have the two sit and start by kissing. After a bit of lip locking, Travis says he's, "gonna do him first," and has Justin remove his tighty whities. Well, "ready to go," Justin sits back and enjoys "Travis' inhalations." As he watches Travis' head bob, Justin says, "it feel real nice

Any holiday will do. There are mattress sales for Valentine's Day and Halloween.
As PGroot said, almost every holiday is declared a reason to shop. There may be a little rhyme to their reason, though. Memorial Day falls near the end of Spring, a time when people traditionally do a lot of house cleaning and renovating for Summer. This may be when people take serious notice of the condition of their beds.
This is, also, the time of year when bed manufacturers start introducing their new models. So, retailers want to move out as many of the old units as possible.

I don't consider myself to be a "political person." I don't watch the presidential debates. I don't obsess over the polls. I don't hang on every word of the pundits. To be honest, I never give it that much thought.
In the past, I've picked up bits of information here and there and formed my opinions slowly. Often, I've made my choices the day before I cast my vote.
During the last presidential election, I couldn't make up my mind at all. I stepped up to the voting machine, closed the curtain and stared at the ballot. I was hoping for some last minute inspiration.
Taylor County property tax bills sent out last week contained an error.
According to Taylor County Sheriff's Office Manager Martha Cox, the due date is incorrect.
Cox said the date by which people can pay their bills and receive a discount was listed incorrectly. Residents may pay their bills up to and including Nov. 1 and still receive a discount.
For more information, call the sheriff's office at 465-4351.
As the proportion of older Kentuckians continues to grow, some seniors may find that additional income is necessary to meet financial obligations and rising living expenses.
Because of the work experience and skills needed in today's workforce, they may also discover it can be difficult for them to find good paying jobs.
The Senior Community Service Employment Program offers employment and job training opportunities to low-income Kentuckians 55 and older. SCSEP participants receive training in a variety of job fields through placements in community service settings.
Two Campbellsville residents have been charged with drug crimes in indictments recently unsealed by a Taylor Circuit Court judge.
A grand jury may seal an indictment if there is a possibility that the accused will try to evade police.
Steve A. "Boo" Pritchard, 34, of 630 Elmore Road was charged with selling marijuana within 1,000 yards of a school and being a second-degree persistent felony offender.

Dry is the keyword when describing this season's harvest in Taylor County.
According to the U.S. Drought Monitor, Taylor County is experiencing a severe drought, with virtually all of Kentucky's counties suffering some level of drought.
The lack of rain, coupled with last year's drought, is having an affect on crops, according to Taylor County Agricultural Extension Agent Pat Hardesty.

Removed the control panel, top and front panels to access the motor. Removed the motor and inspected. The motor looked fine. Leaned machine back and remove the brake cover following the directions posted by others on this website. Discovered grease and grime on the friction brake, which did not look right. The grease must have slung off of the transmission shaft. Wiped the brake clean with a dry rag and put machine back together. Machine did not run, motor only hummed. I replaced the motor only and the machine now works fine. My feeling is the grease caused the brake to stick and every time the motor started up, the sticking brake put a strain on the motor. Over time this cause the motor to burn up. Machine is only 6 years old. Sounds like a design flaw.

On a hot, greasy Mumbai afternoon at 12.26 pm to be precise a mail popped up in my mailbox from college titled "In the background of elections". Thinking it was just another guest lecture, I ignored it initially.
But on seeing my Facebook newsfeed full of notifications, I decided to read the mail. I still remember the non-chalance with which I thought it was just another piece on elections and said to myself that I'm not missing out on much because I read a lot of election pieces while working on an internship.
After reading the mail, I was a little surprised. As far as I knew, a college had never been so vocal about a particular issue. I felt a sense of pride, I don't know why. Perhaps, because I felt that it was good to know that the principal was open to debate and voiced his opinion.
One of the main pre-requisites of voting as a citizen in a democratic state is being informed. Self education is our duty and we all are free to form our opinions based on this. A deep analysis and assimilation of facts before forming an opinion is of utmost necessity and in a country like ours, we face a dire shortage of such thinking. Especially because, in a society we live today, we are unable to differentiate between what is the truth and what isn't.
Many of the posts published (regarding the mail) in various newspapers and on social media heavily lack in facts. Several news publications even using words like "slamming" in their headlines. The mail has been completely misconstrued as "bias".
Instead what the mail tries to do is make sure the reader makes an informed decision. After having read the facts, it is up to us to frame an opinion- something that Father Frazer even mentions in the mail.
Today, with hundreds of advertisements by political parties covering every section of the media from front pages to hoardings, we need to look beyond publicity skills. Because let's face it, this is not a "who campaigns better" contest. We need to look at what a party stands for, what it believes in, what are its long term plans. Let's make this clear, this piece is in no way whatsoever defending, supporting, attacking, "slamming" any party/candidate.
We as citizens need to look beyond ad campaigns which make a desperate attempt to cajole voters in their favour. In a country where news is sensationalised before being served to us, it is important that we make a decision for ourselves. It is fundamental to listen to everyone's views and opinions but at the end of the day it is for us to decide what kind of a nation we want to be.
If a person can be so easily influenced by a mail, I don't think they deserve the right to vote, especially in a country where we receive information which is misrepresented by political parties and their media.
Thus, stating that a mail creates a sort of compulsion on students and that this is a mere attempt to "colour the minds of first time voters" is extremely naïve and baseless. On one hand we have Sri Sri Ravi Shankar, Baba Ramdev, Lata Mangeshkar openly voicing their political choices, while when a principal of one of Mumbai's most prestigious college voices his opinion it suddenly becomes a problem. Why?
The mail in no way tried to show a bias or "influence" anybody's mind but was a mere attempt to voice an opinion. If a mail can discourage or encourage voters, all the videos, songs, parodies which have been published so far should be attacked in the same way. The fact that the principal being at such a position was able to voice his choice without out rightly dismissing someone else's is commendable.
