Your guide to the BMW M4's faces
Standard coupe, monster V8 DTM car and now MotoGP safety car: here's your complete guide
Posted: 10 Mar 2014
BMW M4 Coupe - the DTM car
The engine in the new M4 DTM car is codenamed 'P66', giving absolutely no hint at the fact it's a bloody great V8 with a lot of power. 480bhp, to be precise (though this is subject to an air restrictor as per the DTM regulations), all wrung out from a 4.0-litre, made up of 800 different components and 3,900 individual parts.
We're told it's both a sprinter and a marathon runner, and as such posts a claimed 0-62mph time of three seconds, running through a racing six-speed sequential gearbox. Torque? Around 369lb ft, all fed to the rear wheels via a multi-disc limited slip differential. There are double wishbone axles front and rear with pushrods and adjustable shocks, vented discs, and a carbon fibre monocoque chassis with an integrated tank and steel roll cage. All in, it weighs just 1,110kg, dry.
Oh, and it looks absolutely fantastic, too.

My Blue Jay of the Week is based on one game but thankfully that game lasted 16 innings! With a game that long lots of players had a chance to make an impact, so who stepped up in Cleveland?
This weeks Blue Jay of the Week is…. JP Arencibia! (@jparencibia9)
| 1 hit | 1 hr | 3 rbi | 1 run | 3 k's | .143 avg |
I can pretty much guarantee you this will be the only time all year that my Blue Jay of the Week only records one hit during the week.
It will also be the only time that the player strikes out more times than he has hits but JP Arencibia's 3-run home run in the top of the 15th inning was the game-winning blast for the Blue Jays. The game turned into a marathon after Indians starter Justin Masterson tamed the Blue Jays through 8 innings of 2-hit baseball.
JPA did much more than record his lone hit, he also locked down the backstop position by blocking a countless number of breaking balls in the dirt. Add to that a stellar defensive play on a pitch that bounced a few feet towards first base which caused Shin-Soo Choo to try and score from 3rd base. Arencibia pounced on the loose ball, ignored Ricky Romero who was running to cover home plate and dove back to a sliding Choo to make the tag on the foot and record the 3rd out of the inning.
JP has shown a maturity that continues to grow behind the plate and he proved last year that he swings a heavy bat.
Word in the off-season was that JPA didn't feel he received enough recognition for his very solid rookie campaign but I don't think he'll have to worry about people taking notice anymore. Not because he's my Blue Jay of the Week but because this was just the first of many games where he'll be making the difference when all is said and done.

National Strategy
National Military Strategy of the United States of America, 2011
The Joint Chiefs of Staff released this military strategy document on February 8, 2011. The 2011 version is the first update in seven years. In a press release, chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff, Mike Mullen, stated,
"Today, I released the 2011 National Military Strategy which provides a vision for how our Joint Force will provide the military capability to protect the American People, defend our Nation and allies, and contribute to our broader peace, security and prosperity.
While we continue to refine how we counter violent extremism and deter aggression, this strategy also rightfully emphasizes that our military power is most effective when employed in concert with other elements of power. This whole-of-nation approach to foreign policy, with civilian leadership appropriately at the helm, will be essential as we address the complex security challenges before us.
This strategy also acknowledges that while tough near-term choices must be made during this era of broader economic constraints, we will continue to invest in our people and our families. Working with our government and interagency partners, and our friends and allies, they, most of all, will bring this strategy to life as we meet our 21st century responsibilities in a dynamic, yet uncertain, future."

12 May - The Equator
RRS Ernest Shackleton Diary
Position at 1200 (UTC - 2 hours): 14° 50'6 South 030° 36'7 West
Next destination: Grimsby, Lincolnshire, England
ETA: Wednesday, 22nd May 2002
Distance to go: 2610.0 nm
Total Distance Sailed this Season: 28351.3 nm
Current weather: Bright and sunny but windy, so cool on decks.
Wind: Northerly, Force 7
Barometric pressure: 1013.0 mb and steady
Sea state: Moderate
Air temperature: 25.2°C.
Sea temperature: 23.9°C.
Current, frequent weather observations reported back to BAS Headquarters in Cambridge is used to plot the ship's current position and recent track. Meteorological data are also available from this page. The callsign of RRS Ernest Shackleton is ZDLS1.
The Week started out as all Bank Holidays SHOULD start out.....with rain. Monday was rainy, rainy, rainy. Tropical rain. The sort that never lets up and just keeps coming and coming. However, with the temperatures well into the high twenties, it was still pleasantly refreshing to have a drop of rain to take the 'stickiness' out of the air.
This meant that the painting program was put on hold outside and gave the FID's the chance they needed for a break, for a lay-in in the morning and a chance to nurse those late-night blues that the preceding evening had brought on. It was a Bank Holiday in the world, afterall. The previous evening - Sunday evening - had seen the first of the infamous Shackleton BBQ's on the helideck. It was a pretty sedate affair with a little light music, a little light lighting and a little light food - heavily burnt - on the BBQ. The BBQ as always was provided by the modified fuel drums - cut in half with back splash-guards and room for a grill on the top, and charcoal/wood fuel in the bottom. This simple, but effective means of incinerating the meat provided everyone with ample to eat after being 'flashed up' about 1600 hours and conversations around the 'dry' helideck going on well into the early morning.
Above: Images from the BBQ on the helideck. Click on the images to enlarge them.
So Monday 6th was a quiet day on board with FID's sleeping late and then the indoor pursuits were much in evidence in the late afternoon and evening. Scrabble, Chess, Some-game-that-I've-never-seen-before, and Bridge were all being played quietly in the Red Room. It is quite a nice ambience when groups are congregated in a silent room with nought but the click click of playing pieces on playing boards, or shuffle of cards being played out on the table. Restful. Better than Videos !!
But like all good Bank Holidays, they are over too soon, and the FID's were all industriously back at work on Tuesday morning , painting the railings, painting the superstructure, painting themselves, and covering the decks. A notable paint-job was that of Dr.Jenny who developed a nice ochre tan during the hours she was outside painting, but then when the layers of 'splashed paint' were removed, she revealed blotches of white all over her arms!!
The week then progressed apace, with nothing much to break the monotony of one day to the next, with the exception of a proliferation of fishing vessels on Tuesday, some diving 'Boobies' on Wednesday, and some inclement weather for periods again on Thursday. Other than that we progress in a northerly direction at best speed for the Grimsby tides on Wednesday 22nd. But operationally, the long journey home is giving us time to train in other aspects of the ship ready for the North Sea. On Thursday this week, we tested out the DP (Dynamic Positioning) Desk at the aft of the wheelhouse. During our Antarctic period, all the 'driving' is done from the front end of the bridge, as you would expect. But once on DP, the DP desk and all it's associated wizardry is located at the rear of the wheelhouse. So we had the chance to practice controlling the ship from the rear desk and lower the 'Azimuth' thruster and revolve around on all thrusters generally. There were snags at first but these will be ironed out by this time next month, and we will be using the Dynamic Positioning in earnest on Ernest !
Likewise, we do not receive too many visitations from helicopters when down in the Antarctic regions. So we started practising our 'helicopter' drills with an Helicopter Fire Incident Exercise on Friday afternoon. This is where the boys got the chance to dress up in the heavy protective gear of a Helicopter Fire-fighting team, and then use hoses and foam to 'put out' the pretend fire on the crashed helicopter on our decks. A crashed helicopter was hard to find at such short notice, so the make-shift swimming pool was drafted in as the 'stunt double' for the helicopter. All went swimmingly well - I say swimmingly, because Murdo on the highest mounted fire monitor (water gun), managed to give everybody a 'right good dousing' ! I do not know if the pretend helicopter was extinguished, but the fire crews certainly were!!

Wavey-Davey's Weekly Wit-spot
For days, now, Wavey-Davey has been wracking his brain to come up with this weeks offering. However, since he has been 'put under pressure' to come up with the goods now - his natural ability to rattle of inane jokes seems to have dried. He is hard pressed to come out with the classics now that they are expected of him ! Most of the funny ones - I am afraid - are 'unprintable'..... but I did like the one about the guy who went to the fancy dress party and......
So in an effort to print a little something more respectable :-
Davey says - "Did you hear about the cat who lost his coat, one morning the bald cat jumped on a bus ???"
"Oiy !" said the driver. " What about your fare ??? "
The biggest occasion, this week must have been the 'crossing of the line' in the early hours of Friday morning. It is customary for King Neptune of the Seven Seas to put in an appearance, (see 'Crossing the Equator' by Mike Gloistein, Oct'99), but I guess that due to the early hour and the fact that it was the weekend, he was late ! We did get the visitation, but not until the following day when on Saturday 11th May, the Public Address System broke into life to announce the arrival onboard of some rather important visitors !
The true and rightful monarch of all the oceans and of the creatures that dwell within, our King Neptune looked resplendent in his robes of finest squid, spun gossamer, his white beard and hair flowing behind him as if still moving under the influence of the mighty sea from whence he came. At his side the stunning Queen Clodapous still retained her water nymph grace upon the deck of the magnificent ship RRS Ernest Shackleton, although every step she took caused her exquisite pain - the price all mermaids pay when they trade their scaly tails for legs whilst out of the water.
Bit bloody small for going to the Antarctic in! Neptune mumbled under his breath, into the shell like ear of his Queen, who smiled in suppliance. With the vessel now in the NE Trade Winds, she bounces about like a child on "Charlie Chalk's" bouncing castle. The High Heed Yin of the ship, Captain Stuart Lawrence greeted Neptune with great warmth and affection as they had met several times during Stuart's illustrious time at sea. The Captain was captivated by the unearthly beauty of the Queen and could barely drag his eyes from her glowing features and gracious curves, for the remainder of the afternoon or was it that of King Neptune ???.
Neptune and his Court were here to have allegiance sworn to them by those who have never crossed by sea, that line - the Equator, which divides our hemispheres, and thereby to be allowed free passage for those he found truly pleasing.
Present at the Court were their Majesties Neptune and Queen Clodapous, the Judge to proclaim sentence, the Prosecutor, the Doctor to administer the medicine, the Barber-dentist for unprintable tortures and the merry band of policemen - whose vocation it was to seek out and find stowaways on the ship who had yet to swear allegiance to Neptune and be granted the freedom to pass, without hindrance, upon the Seven Seas and Five Oceans of our Planet. The large heavy cudgels and batons carried by these burly gents were used merely to 'tickle' their prisoners, until they may laugh....and laugh they did, both when it was their turn to appear before the court, and afterwards !
Jenny "say ahh" Dean was the first brought from her hiding place (under a pile of clothes in the hospital) to be presented before the Court. After prostrating herself in front of their Majesties, Jenny begged to kiss the right foot of Queen Clodapous, which by some cantraip sleight bore an uncanny resemblance to a kipper. Meanwhile, Mike P the policeman covered Jenny in squirty cream - a sight never seen before under the public's gaze. Forthwith, Jenny was ordered to the dock where her crimes both real and imaginary were read aloud. Such crimes as - not breathing on her stethoscope before use, having the blotchiest suntan on the ship when she should know better, and having an unhealthy interest in inventories and indents! Of course, she was found 'guilty' by the judge who banged his gavel loudly on the table, before passing the maximum penalty. A somewhat dejected prisoner was led from the docks, after surprisingly offering no defence whatsoever, to the chair.
Here the real Doctor was waiting to administer a very large syringe of pink blancmange in appearance, type-medicine. Where-upon, Jenny's face flushed with gustatory delight (oral being the preferred route of administration, in this instance) as the glutinous, gurnardesque gunk hit her tongue, firing off every chilli receptor in her brain. Several large ladlefuls of fermenting, textured brown gloop were then deposited over her head and into her lap to the raucous applause of the Court.
The prisoners debt paid and allegiance sworn to Neptune, Jenny was then invited to join the other noble and gallant mariners in the small green secret tradition, known only to those worthy of Neptune's secret. If I tell you, I'd have to.....
Above: Justice is a dish best served cold - like an old kipper ! Click on the images for a larger and more gruesome view!!
All too soon all ten stowaways had been discovered in their fetid little hiding spots, brought gently before the Court to be fairly tried and found 'guilty'. The prosecutor executing a wonderful performance in his curled wig, winged collar and cuffs (matching, I may add) large spectacles; despite his red suspenders and obvious orthodontic problems, orated magnificently.
Like the rainbows lovely form, vanishing amid the storm King Neptune, Queen Clodopous and his Court slipped over the wall and disappeared beneath the boiling green waves of the Atlantic swell, deep down into their watery Kingdom.
Listed below are those to whom the freedom of the seas has been bestowed.
Ian "love child of Chris Evans" Martin
Peter "kelpologist" Milner
Steve "ginger-beer" le Breton
Tobias "2 beers" Garstecki
Mark "booties" Jessop
Keith "two out of three aint bad dolly" Walker
Dafyd "twitcher" Roberts
Chris "aye man" Hall
Lucy "fishy" Conway
Jenny "say ahhhh" Dean
That's all folks, Reuters.
We'd heard the rumours, been wound up by our comrades, and scared into hiding by the mere mention of the word "equator", but now it was time to face the music for real.
An announcement had been made that King Neptune and his lovely wife were onboard ready to put to trial some criminals who had sneaked across this imaginary line.
After listening to the football on the radio in my cabin (more worried about Sunderland's fate than mine), myself and Keith (ex Rothera chef) were having a few beers watching the clock in a scene reminiscent to High Noon waiting for the door to go in, both of us mortified with the thought of losing our hair.....something we've nurtured over an Antarctic winter (or two!!!).
Tap, tap, tap on the door and the police waded in, batons an'all, we put up a fight, spilling out into the alleyway but we were no match for the beer bellied bobbies, they dragged us up to the Court of King Neptune.
Jenny Doctor had already been "sentenced" and Mark Jessop was in the chair receiving some medicine, which clearly wasn't doing him any good at all. Keith went next into the dock beaten to the floor and forced to kiss the kipper, then up to the pulpit to have his crimes read out ( I had to agree to the charge of his listening to country music...a heinous crime indeed). Keith was led to the chair and I'm thinking "it's me next".
The gavel crashed down and I'm up in front of the King getting whacked from all directions, forced down on to my knees to kiss some rotting fish on the foot of Neptune's wife.
My crime, - no sir I'm innocent,- but never-the-less I was branded a small time opportunist criminal and guilty of six offences and one of those for simply being a "Mackem". So to the chair, if the old wives tale is true about the more horrid the medicine the better it is, then I'll never be ill ever again....... chundersville!!!!! Time for the slops bucket, litres of it being poured over my head, I could feel my eyes stinging as the chilli powder worked its way in. Finally a good dowsing with the fire hose and that was it I could have a beer and be part of the jury watching the rest of the petty crooks being brought to justice, for crimes such as: wearing a baseball cap (Pete Milner), being an arsonist (Ian Martin), smiling too much (Steve L B), keeping fish locked up in a container instead of eating them (Lucy), an inability to spell (Daffyd), and for being....... German (Tobias) who was incidently found hiding in the courtroom, very clever.
Three people never brought to trial were Casson, Papa and Powell ( the Antarctic equivalent of Compo, Foggy and Clegg), they deserve a mention for all serving extra long Antarctic sentences, they've seen it all before many times. And who could forget poor Alan the second officer, well he got it anyway.
Chris Hall (Rothera 2000-2002) a sentence in it's own right!!
The evening, saw many of the FID's and Crew 'spent' after their exertions of the day. It's tiring work chasing runaway FID's to the four corners of the ship. So the planned BBQ that evening was a very sombre and sober affair with everybody just content to sit and eat their BBQ food, drink their drinks and watch the sun go down giving way to a very pleasant dusk and dark evening. It was overcast, so no moon or stars were evident, and many were just well-satisfied to stare into their beer glasses/bottles and contemplate the world at length.
Scientific update....The Intelligent Fish
Other important events not withstanding, science has once more significantly progressed on our research vessel this week. Recent work has focused on the discovery of a hitherto completely unknown degree of Intellectual Ambition (hereafter IA) in an individual of common flying fish (Cypselurus heterurus). This individual shown here was found reading Norman Mailers "History of Europe" on the Monkey Island of the ship, on May 12, 2002 at 13:30 local time. The exceptional degree of IA displayed by this individual is underlined by the facts that (1) it had to overcome a height difference of almost 15 m in order to reach the monkey island, and that (2) it was prepared to pay with its life for the relatively small knowledge gain afforded by the title page of the above mentioned book. The fact that it started reading the book from the title, however, shows an equally unexpected competence with written material which generally calls into question established views on cultural heritage in flying fish. Although admittedly anecdotal, the reported IA phenomenon clearly deserves further attention. Further results will be published elsewhere!
Forthcoming events: Journey onwards to Grimsby. N.B, An Azores 'high' is becoming an Azores 'low' but more on that next week when our resident weather router may be able to explain the sudden presence of Madeira Wine onboard !!! Watch this space.
Contributors this week : Many thanks to King Neptune and Queen Clodapous for their kind visit, to Penny 'Reuters' Granger for her on-the-spot account, and Chris Hall for admitting to his crimes. Also to Tobias Garstecki, for his brief encounter with an intelligent flying fish !
Diary 31 will be written on 19th May 2002 and should be published on 20th May 2002

Most didelphid marsupials can be fed dry or canned dog or cat food. Smaller species can be fed canned primate diet. Hard-boiled egg, green vegetables, carrot, sweet potato, apple, and banana can also be offered. Dasyurids (eg, marsupial "mice," native cats, Tasmanian devil) and bandicoots can be fed canned or frozen feline diet. In addition, crickets, mealworms, and mouse pups can be given to smaller species; larger species can be given mice and shank or rib bones. Wombats and the larger macropod marsupials can be fed a combination of large herbivore pellets, rabbit pellets, or special kangaroo pellets. Rat kangaroos will eat a combination of mouse pellets and rabbit pellets.
Green vegetables, carrot, sweet potato, apple, and banana can be offered to all herbivorous and omnivorous marsupials. For herbivores, greens should be added in limited amounts; these marsupials should be fed a good-quality hay. To prevent lumpy jaw, the diet of marsupials should contain at least 200 mg vitamin E and 0.2 mg selenium/kg dry matter. Currently, captive koalas can be fed successfully only on leaves of certain species of eucalyptus. Special pellets for koalas are being tested and may be available in the future.

MAKEUP: Lucia Pica for MAC Cosmetics
HAIR: Odile Gilbert for Moroccanoil
SNAPSHOT: Another Day in Paradise
THE SCOOP: For her Spring 2011 collection, Erin Fetherston channeled the effortless cool of a woman vacationing in the
Lead makeup artist Lucia Pica perfected a "hot flash look" by smoothing a brown cream onto the cheekbones and dabbing a glycerin spray on the cheeks, chin and nose. She made the pout pop with a matte orange lipstick coined So Chaud.
Inspired by the markings on tropical leaves, hairstylist Odile Gilbert created a clean, casual hairstyle. "I wanted to create an exotic look that had the mood of a woman on a tropical holiday, ready to explore something new after a morning on the beach," said Gilbert. "Her hair looks natural, healthy, straight and clean -- but I've given it a bit of subtle drama, with texture only on the top of the hair and back from the face. The rest of the strands fall free."
GET THE LOOK - MAKEUP: All makeup by MAC Cosmetics. Cover any blemishes with concealer. Curl lashes and coat top and bottom with mascara. Brush brows up and smooth on eyebrow gel. Slick Vaseline onto the eyelids. Apply a brown cream shadow to the cheekbones. Finish look with So Chaud lipstick and lightly brush on top a powder to matte it down. Use a Q-tip to soften the edges.
GET THE LOOK - HAIR: All hair products by Moroccanoil. Blow dry hair straight using Treatment or Light to protect and prepare the hair for smoothing with a flat iron. Create a deep side part and then lightly moisten top of hair from the forehead back to the crown with Hydrating Styling Cream, separating hair slightly with fingers. Spray Luminous Hairspray only several inches away from the hair. Separate strands with a comb to mimic a striated tropical effect. Blow dry the shaped texture and spray with Luminous Hairspray to hold. Finish by brushing the rest of the hair from back of the crown to the ends, letting it fall naturally and tucking the strands behind the ears.

The Opposition United Democratic Party, (UDP) held a rally at Ebony Junction in Serekunda on Saturday 9th February 2013. The Occasion attracted a crowd of over a thousand party supporters and interested persons some of whom were introduced as representatives from the provinces. The Rally was chaired by Mr. Solo Sanding who moderated the occasion.
The standard-bearer of the united Democratic Party Lawyer Ousainou Darboe, speaking after party supporters and leaders said among other things that it would have been better to be on the radio and television but since they can't access the state media, conducting it on the ground is the only option. He also went on to say that he has never seen a televised cabinet meeting except in the Gambia. He said they say that Gambia is a Muslim country, this he said is false, because section one of the country clearly indicates the Gambia is secular state. He said they can say that ninety percent of the population is Muslim and five percent is Christian which he said he can agree with. Darboe also added that the since Gambians love their religion, the first duty of a leader is to be truthful and honest. So they said the EU wants to protect homosexuals which he also said is not part of the EU's 17 points.
He said and even if it were the issue they should not make it a Muslim issue, because he said even the Christians reject it. Darboe also adumbrated that many are shouting 'No to EU demands' when they do not even have a clue about what the EU wants. But he said the unfortunate thing is that they are misled. He further questioned the arrest of Benedict Jammeh and Mambury Njie who he said they cannot even lay a charge sheet on him still and said this is what the EU does not like. He further said Imam Leigh did not observe the last "Gamo"because he is detained and added that the EU did not encourage gay marriage but wants them to conduct a moratorium on the executions. He further stated that the EU wants the media to be free and adhere to the laws but said they are claiming that the EU wants to recolonise Gambia which he said is incorrect.
He added that any grant or aid goes with conditions and further postulated that it's left to Gambians to see whether they should allow this regime to continue or to discontinue .He also argued that Gambians ratified and domesticated the treaties, so Gambia is bound by all the protocols it has ratified added the Majority leader Fabakary Tombong Jatta said that let the Leigh family sue the government to release Baba Leigh. He opined that this is the greatest embarrassment; that instead of urging them to release him, since the Gambia is hosting the African Charter on Human and People's Rights, now they are saying they do not know his whereabouts instead of conducting diligent investigations to secure his release.
Dabo also talked about the change of the working days and hours from Mondays to Thursdays and from 8am to 6pm daily which he said is not viable; that when schools are grappling with their syllabuses and they were told it was not viable so they excluded the schools while their supervisors at the regions do not work on Fridays. He said this does not make sense. He went on to say that the Gambia has a demoralized civil service while the banks operate and only the Vault section of the Central bank works on Friday which he said is not enough, because its role is more than that. He mentioned the Gambia revenue Authority which he said is under the Ministry of Finance and the ministry will not operate on Fridays.
This he said are all miscalculated. He further posited that they use the naivety of some religious fanatics O TALK ABOUT A Muslim state . He also went on to ask if the teachers are non Muslims since they would continue to working on Fridays. He said above all Yahya Jammeh must go and said that they would get rid of him in 2016 to end his senseless policies. He also added that they should strengthen the hospitals by providing the necessary medical equipment and medication to prevent people from travelling from the rural areas to Banjul. He finally criticised what he said are white elephant structures and concluded by emphasizing that Jammeh must go in 2016.
Mr. Omar Mballow, councilor for Kiang Berending Ward dilated that they need to look into the way the Gambia is governed, pointing out that they are not happy with the way this country is governed especially the local government. He also added that the situation of the local government is sad. He urged them to change, opining that if the UDP party assumes office the local government would be autonomous. He also urged the youths to come out in their large numbers and take up the responsibility, because the elders' time has elapsed. He also touched on the skyrocketing of the prices of basic commodities like palm oil and a bag of rice. He concluded by saying that, if the UDP comes to power they would reduce the heavy tax levied on basic goods and urged the populace to look at the way the country is governed and remedy the situation.
Mr. Edward Wilson, in his speech said, before he came to the rally, he went to one of his friends called Lamin and asked him to go with him to the rally, and Lamin yelled and asked: "Did you forget what happened to Kanyiba Kanyi in 2006?" He said his response was negative. He however said Lamin said he would vote for UDP but will not attend any rally. Mr. Wilson said he proceeded to another friend called Kebba and who reminded him of Deyda Hydara and Chief Ebrima Manneh. Mr. Wilson said he finally approached a third friend who also reminded him of Imam Baba Leigh, Ba Kawsu,the former Imam of GIA.
Wilson said he then headed for the rally. He said many now say that Gambians' eyes are open, but he Mr. Wilson is not agreeable to this, saying that it's only one of their eyes that's open, because he argued that Lawyer Darboe wants to eradicate poverty. He then asked the following questions to the crowd whether Gambians want the unemployment rate to be higher than mount Kilimanjaro? That whether they want to suffer from lack of transport forever. Whether they want to continue living from hand to mouth forever? And do they also want the journalists and Imams to be detained incommunicado without trial forever?
The crowd responded in the negative.
And Mr. Wilson concluded by urging them to fear Allah and not a President Jammeh, because he said if anyone dies for a human being instead of Allah that person would go to hell.
Mr. Lamin Barrow also a party militant said, since the coup d'etat in 1994, the APRC spoilt the Agriculture of this Country, because they spent only 10 percent of the budget on it, while arguing that the former ruling party, the PPP was spending 50 percent of the budget every year on Agriculture. He said the government is now asking tailors to pay one thousand seven hundred for a canteen at Farefenni which he said is unacceptable. He further stated that they said Lawyer Darboe wants to remove all Alkalos and Sefoolu in the Gambia, but he said Darboe is too civilized to do such a thing. He also went on to say that their mothers used to sell logs and supported the PPP until they freed the Gambia from the colonialists. He concluded by saying that there are many vehicles but fuel is too expensive. He urged everybody to rally behind the UDP.
Fatoumata Jawara, the leader of the female youth wing of UDP on her part said, spoke on corruption and alleged the high level of corruption in the APRC government which he opined is even felt by the suckling babies. She said in 1994, Jammeh said he needed only two years and within that period he amended the constitution to suit himself. She went on to say that anything that President Jammeh imposes on the people is seen to be destined by God and urged the people not be afraid . She also added that if Darboe comes to power, he would repeal all the draconian laws formulated by Jammeh and concluded by saying that Darboe taught them a lot about the love for peace and how to avoid violence but they would defend their rights, she posited.
Eliman UDa Nyang, the UDP KMC Committee Leader said they were gathered there to show their solidarity to Lawyer Darboe, because since 1996, Darboe was the only brave man to contest elections against Yahya Jammeh and added that Darboe sacrificed his life and property to rescue the Gambia. He went on to question the legality of the retirement age to vie for the presidency. He asked the crowd to go home and ponder what they are supposed to pay Darboe, because he opined that they cannot afford to lose him. He said that they are vehemently opposed to the 65-years age limit to run for presidency. He concluded by saying that if Darboe is in power a bag of rice would not cost more than one thousand dalasi and a box of matches would not cost one dalasi fifty butut.
Alhagie Sainey Singhateh, said everybody in the Gambia is suffering and also said that Lawyer Darboe is a learned person with a wealth of experience of every country in the world. He also questioned the disappearance of Imam Leigh and also added that their survival is not with APRC but with Allah. He went further to ask the Gambian women if they want to continue feeding their children from childhood to adulthood due to lack of employment? He calls on the good sons of the soil and disclosed that he was sent to prison for two years and six months without committing any crime and ended up accusing him with one Fodeh Makalo of being the drivers of Kukoi Samba Sanyang. He added that both of them did not even know how to ride a motorbike and questioned how they could drive a car. He went on to say that they were rescued by Lawyer Darboe and this is why he has dedicated his entire life to Darboe, he concluded.
Mr.Kemeseng Jammeh the UDP representative for Jarra West on his part said the European union is a twenty-seven member organisation that signed an agreement with African, Caribbean, and Pacific Countries to help them to develop, socially, economically and politically. He said and this was done in Cotonou the capital city of Benin. He said if the Gambia implements these proposals on Democracy, Human rights, press freedom and the rule of law, they would keep supporting the Gambia, he opined. He also emphasised that the press freedom is as important as the presidency or parliament. He pointed out a few things that the European Union did for the Gambia, such as the construction of Soma to Basse, Mandinaba-Selliti, Barra-Amdallai and so on. He also added that more than one hundred million Dollars were spent on water supply from Gunjur to Koina. So he said if they say the EU wants to re-colonise Gambia and called this amounts chicken change, that is unacceptable, he said. He further argued that they should ask themselves what the EU has been doing for the Gambia since independence, before embarking on demonstrations, he said. What the EU wants, he said, is for the government to conduct a moratorium on the death penalty, reopen TerangaFm, Daily news and the Standard newspapers and all these issues are to be discussed, because they want press freedom, human rights and good governance. He concluded by reiterating that if the UDP assumes office they would repeal the draconian laws. He also condemns the president for being involved in business. "The UDP will develop Agriculture and make sure a two-year term limit for any government will be instituted", Asserted Kemeseng Jammeh.
Mr. Lamin Dibba, Campaign Manager and propagandist of the UDP buttressed some of the issues highlighted by Mr. Kemeseng Jammeh, and said some Gambians do not have the interest of the country at heart and its relation with other countries, because he said they blackmail the populace. He also added that if, Gambia is to be at loggerheads with its partners it should emanate from the people but they should not to be misled. He also added that if they are in power, the media will be free because it helps other countries to know what happens in the country. He also went on to say that the APRC propagandists are deceiving the youth. He revealed that there are no medical equipment and school fees are unaffordable by parents, and described structures as white elephant buildings. He further disclosed that GPTC is defunct due to poor governance. He opined that the gutters in Banjul and roads are terrible and if the UDP is to steer the affairs of the state, they would build a modern capital city, because it's housing the seat of government. He also mentioned the desperate situation of the Banjul-Barra ferries and said they would also provide a ferry that would transport people from Banjul to Basse. He then urges everybody to rally behind UDP.
While Dembo Bojang alias Dembo by-force, the national President of the UDP on his part said Gambia is at a crossroads, argued that enough is enough for the APRC regime, because they cannot forget it. He also added that five people accused of plotting coup d'état in 2006 disappeared and it was said that they escaped, because their vehicle ran into a ditch on their way to Janjanbureh Prison. He went further to also reiterate the murder of Deyda Hydara and the disappearance of Ebrima Manneh and said once again enough is enough for Yahya and APRC. He also added that NCP, PPP, GPP and PDOIS agree to go by the ballot and Jammeh said no and then took the gun and overthrew the democratically elected government of the Gambia. Mr. Bojang also went on to assert that: "operation feed the nation means that APRC are not feeding anybody and everyone is hungry. "And operation Clean the nation" everywhere is dirty and to cap it all, it has resulted in the deaths pregnant women, and the increase of malaria and asthma which are all taking their tolls", He sloganised. He also added that operation bulldozer means leveling the ground and not the people.
The statements made by Mr. Dembo By-Force and Mr. Lamin Dibba, Campaign Manager will be published in our next edition.

Joseph Spelt Ale
There is no question that Joseph is a Belgian Wheat beer. This is obvious by its cloudy look, the way it feels in the mouth, and its aroma. However, the taste of this certified organic beer sets it apart from the commercially known Belgian wheat beers. Spelt is the ancestor of the wheat family (wheat is spelta in Latin). It's getting new attention nowadays, especially by people who like health food – non-processed, organic food. Contrary to regular wheat, spelt is pretty much still the same as it was many centuries ago. It's also called 'poor man's wheat', and it can grow on poorer grounds, such as the grounds that are patched in between the woods around Silenrieux.
The Joseph Spelt Ale is slightly fruity, and has a very pale color with a beautiful bright white head. Although you can pour a nice, clear looking glass of Joseph, it is recommended to roll or slightly shake the bottle before opening, to serve a more cloudy glass of this refreshing and unfiltered beer. Joseph goes very well with salads, and with seafood. It is light in alcohol only 5% alcohol by volume. A great beer to enjoy with lunch.

carring spare oil
I am planning a trip up to Cody Wyo and want to carry some spare oil to top up 2001 GS. I don't want to carry a partial Qt bottle of oil in my panniers. Is there holder that goes on the outside of panniers to hold an oil can??????????
Dunno about a holder, but I use an empty Nyquil bottle.
Option 1,
Mount it vertical.
Cap comes off, put aluminum drink bottle from Menards, Walgreen's, etc inside with oil within.
Works for me.
You can scrunch up a spare tire inner tube and cramb it into the inside of the cap, or eat your soup out of it.
Yes, those are all KLR tricks. But we would carry USED oil :evil
I always just take a partial bottle. Just make sure it is upright. I'm not sure why I bother though. I didn'T add any on my trip to hondurace last year and didn't add enough between changes on my 10K mile trip last month to make it worth it. My bike is an 01 with 74K on it. Lots of 90 mph days and high heat and no oil use.
I use a 500ml Nalgene bottle from REI or other sporting goods store. Made for lab chemicals original now used in mountain sports. The bottles are virtually leak proof. With my KLR and no my GS and have never had issue in panniers.
Partial bottle in a freezer bag.
Carry it in a 1 gallon plastic storage bag which folks use to store stuff in the fridge. Problem solved. Never leaked in close to 300k miles on my GS's. Throw in the tool for opening the oil fill cover and your all set.
I like to use fuel bottles because they don't leak. The bracket to mount them on the painnier comes from Touratech. http://i26.photobucket.com/albums/c1...ps9cfcd828.jpg
I don't know what route you're taking to Cody, but if you are absolutely against zip-locking a partial quart in your bag, there are always O'Reilly Auto Parts stores all along the major routes, they carry motorcycle oil.
My 2001 uses no measurable oil between changes (annually) regardless of miles (usually less than 10,000 miles). Yours should be about the same.
I would top off to the middle of the sight glass and not worry if it gets low on the sight glass. Remember, there are four quarts of oil in the engine. You can ride safely with 3.
You guys are seriuously contemplating pouring oil out of the bottle it came in and into another bottle for transport? People! Stop it!
carrying it is the easy part.
deciding which oil to take is the real issue here.
I prefer Royal purple.
+1 for the TT ... spendy system, but well designed.
I carried oil a long time ago. Then I discovered you could buy it nearly anywhere. The bike can safely run a quart low, so it is highly unlikely that you will "suddenly" fid yourself in the middle of nowhere in need of half a quart of oil.

With the holidays fast approaching, I wanted to help make people's shopping a little easier. If you have anyone on your list who eats food, I have a great idea for you: Hashi-A-Go-Go.
My friend Logan (another one of my girl friends who has a boy's name) is pretty industrious and she decided to apply her craftiness to make Hashi-A-Go-Go. You may have seen other versions of them around, but now you can get a home-made pair just in time for the holidays.
She is only doing a limited run for the holidays, so if you're interested, you'd better contact her to order yours, firstname.lastname@example.com. The price is $10 and you can see just what you get: a pair of chopsticks and a washable case for them.
Just look at what a great way this is to give something that keeps on giving…to our planet.
According to ecohashi.net (note that Hashi-A-Go-Go is not affiliated with Eco Hashi):
- More than 63 billion pairs of disposable chopsticks are produced each year
- That destroys 100 acres of forest a day
- That equals 25 million fully grown trees a year
Oh, and it's low-maintenance! Just wash the chopsticks in warm soapy water and air dry – that's it! And the cloth holder can be treated like any similar clothing item, washing it in cold water and hanging to dry.
So why not be kind to our environment by bringing your own eco-friendly set of chopsticks to your next meal?
No disclosure necessary. I get absolutely nothing for writing this post except the joy of spreading word about my crafty friend's creative endeavor.

Something truly amazing is happening right now before our eyes! What can only be seen as a sovereign work of the Holy Spirit is breaking forth as Christians around the world are working to restore the Hebrew foundations of Christianity. After being marred for more than eighteen centuries by Judaeophobia, anti-Judaism, and anti-Semitism, Christianity is being impacted by a revolution of restoration. Scholars, clergy, and laity from virtually every nationality, ethnicity, and denomination are reconnecting their faith in Jesus with its historical Jewish roots.
Those who are recovering the Hebraic heritage of original Christianity are working to restore an over-Hellenized, over-Latinized Christian community to the faith of Jesus and the apostles. This renewal is replacing the church's traditional Greco-Roman dualistic mindset with the biblically Hebraic holistic mindset in which the earliest church expressed their faith and devotion to God. As a result, the lives of thousands, perhaps millions of believers are being enriched as they become more truly Christian (Christ-like) by being more like their Hebrew Lord, the Jewish Jesus.
Hebraic Christian Global Community is an educational, publishing, and networking resource to the body of Christ that is designed to help promote and sustain this growing international phenomenon of interest in the Jewish roots of Christian faith. We are dedicated to research, development, and implementation of Christianity's Hebraic foundations. We are committed serving believers around the world who are discovering the profound implications that these historical and theological Hebraic truths have for the church's renewal and continuing vitality.
Our motto is "Sharing, Equipping, Serving." We share as a community of fellowship. We equip as a community of study. We serve as a community that worships God and ministers to humanity.
Our vision is summed up in this slogan: "Restoring Ancient Paths, Finding a More Excellent Way." By recovering the most Hebraic foundations of biblical faith, we discover the ancient paths "wherein is the good way, the more excellent way of love for God and love for humanity."
Our mission is this: "HCGC seeks to facilitate the move of God to restore the Hebraic foundations of the Christian faith to all believers without any distinction as to race, ethnicity, gender, socioeconomic status, or denominational affiliation. We seek to extend God's dominion through the interconnectivity of individuals, ministers, ministries, congregations, organizations, and denominations, demonstrating the practical unity of the body of Messiah by standing unequivocally for biblical truth, speaking with a community voice, and serving both the Hebraic heritage community and the church at large by means of corporate action, collaborative ministry, and strategic planning."
Our goal is this: "Restoring the Hebraic Heritage to the Christian Believer." We labor to fulfill this goal by connecting people with people and people with information in a global network of interconnectivity.
If you are one of the many believers around the world who are seeking to restore the Hebraic foundations of your Christian faith, you've come to the right place. Hebraic Christian Global Community (HCGC) offers those seeking a deeper understanding of the Jewish roots of Christianity a place to connect, grow, and serve with other believers who share their passion. We believe that restoring the teaching and practices on which Jesus and the apostles established the Christian faith is essential to the health and maturity of the worldwide Christian family in our post-modern world. As an international, multicultural, and transdenominational network, we welcome all believers to join us as we seek to encourage and support individuals, ministries, and faith communities everywhere in the quest to rediscover and restore the Hebraic roots of original Christianity.
We invite you to join us as we stand side by side, arm in arm, recovering and restoring the quality of community that Jesus and the apostles established.
Shalom & Welcome!
John D. Garr, Ph.D, Th.D.
Founder & President

Hip Hop Evolution
by Stacey Linehan
One Friday in mid-November 2011 Student Bridges hosted "Hip-Hop Evolution" at Peck Full Service Middle School. Student Bridges is a student-initiated outreach program that connects UMass students with local community-based organizations and schools in the Holyoke-Springfield area.
This event's purpose was to prepare and guide students into thinking about college and their options for college through break dance, poetry, rap, spoken word, and college positive workshops.
The College Concept fair was turned into a game; students were provided with a bingo chart that was to be filled out by all the students before they went to get their food, insuring that they visited various stations promoting education. These booths included high school and college topics and concerns such as, 8th grad transition, high school classes, college 101, where is the money, support resources in college, organizations in college, and careers.
Food was generously provided by Fernandez Family Restaurant and the long line that was waiting for the food proved its goodness. Rice, chicken, pork, plantains, and salad filled the stomachs of anxious performers and excited spectators before the show began.
The event featured performances by Peck Middle School students and college groups from the area including UMass. UMass' Insanely Prestigious Step team got the crowd amped for following performers with their powerful routine. The team sported their high school shirts or sweatshirts in spirit of the event. Later in the night UMass' Dance Dhadak performed a few dances and during their last dance the Bollywood vibe had the younger students next to me talking, "that's tight" one said.
Sam Del Pilar shared his "Sneakers for Success" plan. This idea uses "sneaker culture" as a way to try and keep kids in school. As an engineering major, Pilar was able to learn a lot of what goes into sneaker design and wants to give some of that inspiration to our younger generations. Through his innovative plan, he hopes to encourage them to pursue an engineering background as a basis for sneaker design.
There were raffles during the show and prizes were given away, including two pairs of brand new sneakers further promoting "Sneakers for Success". Other prizes included goodie bags and UMass apparel. The night ended well for both the audience and the performers and transportation was provided for those who could not get a ride to the school on their own.

Collision between USA and German players shows the fault in FIFA's concussion policyGraham Watson at FC Yahoo 15 hrs ago
One of the more brutal moments of the first half between the United States and Germany— other than Alex Morgan's finishing — came during a German free kick when USA's Morgan Brian and Germany's Alexandra Popp collided while Brian was attempting to head the ball out of the U.S. box.
Both players went down, Popp with a bloody head and Brian clearly dazed. Both players were down for several minutes before medical personnel helped them to their feet.
This would be a good time to revisit FIFA's concussion policy.
Oh, you're still waiting?
Well, there isn't really one, actually. After the FIFA Men's World Cup last year, there was a meeting and a proposal was made on enhancing the concussion protocol. Here was the recommendation:
And this is pretty much what happened. Brian walked around, said she was fine. Popp had some water squirted on her bloody head, said she was fine and they continued on like nothing happened.
Definitely not the best way to handle a situation that has been medically proven to have possible longterm side effects, but apparently soccer's concussion protocol hasn't caught up to the other football's stringent handling of concussed players. Yeah, the guys with helmets.
Report: Ole Miss' Laremy Tunsil was meeting with agents on night of fightGraham Watson at Dr. Saturday 21 hrs ago
The stepfather of Ole Miss tackle Laremy Tunsil alleges that his stepson was meeting with football agents prior to the incident that led to Tunsil's arrest for domestic assault.
According to The Clarion-Ledger, Lindsey Miller told sheriff's deputies on Thursday night that he and Tunsil's mother, Desiree Tunsil, were arguing about Tunsil "riding around with football agents."
According to the police report, which was obtained by The Clarion-Ledger, Miller told deputy Rudy Howell that "Tunsil and the agents" left in a yellow convertible.
Ole Miss has not yet released a statement about Miller's allegation of Tunsil meeting with agents, which would be an NCAA violation.
Tunsil voluntarily turned himself into police on Friday and did offer his own statement of events. That statement has not yet been released.
What to watch: Can the U.S. defense slow Germany's offense?Graham Watson at FC Yahoo 22 hrs ago
It's finally here.
The game many anticipated when the FIFA Women's World Cup started has finally come to fruition and it's going to be a dandy. Germany and the United States are ranked first and second in the world, respectively. They each have two World Cup titles and the winner of this game is considered the favorite to hoist a third trophy.
[Women's World Cup: Latest news | Scores and Schedule | Group standings]
But it won't be easy. These teams match up oddly well and tonight's game should be a hotly contested affair. It almost feels like a World Cup final and, rest assured, both teams will treat it as such.
Here are a few things to watch when the game kicks off at 7 p.m. ET.
Release Alex Morgan
Thwarting Germany's attack
In the meantime …
England boots host nation Canada from tournament with 2-1 winGraham Watson at FC Yahoo 3 days ago
England needed just three minutes of sustained offense to defeat Canada 2-1 and advance to the semifinals of the World Cup for the first time in its history.
Jodie Taylor kicked off the scoring in the 11 th minute when she stole the ball from Lauren Sesselmann, beat her defender and slid the ball past goalkeeper Erin McLeod. Less than three minutes later, Lucy Bronze headed the ball over McLeod to notch her second game-winning goal in as many days.
Bronze, a defender, had only two previous international goals coming into the tournament.
After that unexpected offensive flurry against a Canadian defense that had only allowed one goal in the tournament, the Lionesses bunkered in on defense like they have so many times this World Cup.
Canada dictated play, but didn't get many quality shots on goal. Striker Christine Sinclair cut the lead in half in the 42 nd minute when she corralled a rebound off goalkeeper Karen Bardsley and knocked it into the net, but outside of that, the quality chances were few and far between.
"The dream is over," Coach John Herdman said following the game. "Gutted, gutted for all of Canada. Christine (Sinclair) said sorry, but she can't say that.
Japan defeats upstart Australia 1-0 to close in on title repeatGraham Watson at FC Yahoo 3 days ago
World Cup reigning champion Japan wants everyone to know it's not going to give up its title without a fight.
It defeated Australia 1-0 with a late goal and became the third team to punch its ticket for the semifinals. Australia, who became the Cinderella of the tournament after a stunning upset of Brazil in the Round of 16, didn't have the same drive against a more structured and defensive Japanese team to move on.
This game was marked as potential upset because Japan had only played World Cup debutantes prior to the contest and because Australia had played three top 10 teams and defeated two of them. However, Australia's gameplan of putting high pressure on the Japanese defense was never executed.
Japan controlled the ball early and often and its suffocating defense stopped Australia's speedy offense from getting quality chances. Australia was forced to play Japan's game and never had the opportunity to be the aggressor in the contest.

Quarterfinals power rankings: Australia is everyone's favorite underdogGraham Watson at FC Yahoo 5 days ago
The quarterfinals of the FIFA Women's World Cup begin Friday, which means it's time to re-rank the remaining eight teams.
[Women's World Cup: Latest news | Scores and Schedule | Group standings]
The United States, despite all the criticism it's faced, actually moved up in the new rankings simply because of its schedule. Germany is still the team to beat and Australia is the team to fear. And if you're looking for the most boring game of the quarterfinals, Canada vs. England might be right up your alley.
Here's a look at the way the final eight stack up.
1. Germany How it advanced: Defeated Sweden 4-1 2015 World Cup record: 3-1-0 (wins-draws-losses) Quarterfinal opponent: France
Japan, the reigning World Cup champ, secures quarterfinals spotGraham Watson at FC Yahoo 7 days ago
The quarterfinals of the FIFA Women's World Cup are officially set.
Japan, the reigning world champion, secured the final spot Tuesday with a dramatic 2-1 win against Netherlands.
[Women's World Cup: Latest news | Scores and Schedule | Group standings]
The game was one of the more exciting of the Round of 16 simply because the two teams were evenly matched and both created a lot of scoring chances.
Japan struck early with a goal in the 10th minute and controlled the game through much of the first half. But in the second half, Netherlands seemed to settle. It mounted its best scoring chance in the 76th minute, which warranted a huge reactionary save by Japan goalkeeper Ayumi Kaihori.

Steve Spurrier tweets support for the removal of the Confederate flagGraham Watson at Dr. Saturday 7 days ago
A day after South Carolina governor Nikki Haley called for the Confederate flag to be removed from the statehouse grounds in Columbia, S.C., South Carolina football coach Steve Spurrier took to Twitter to say the governor had the full backing of the football program.
The South Carolina football team, players and coaches strongly support Governor Haley's decision to remove the flag from the capitol.
Spurrier is really the last major figure from the University of South Carolina to weigh in on the recent debate over the use of the Confederate flag. University president Harris Pastides, athletic director Ray Tanner and even basketball coach Frank Martin all used their Twitter accounts to stand in opposition of the flag.
Even former South Carolina quarterback Connor Shaw weighed in tweeting: "Any flag that contradicts everything our Country flag represents, it shouldn't fly. We ALL stand united."
Also, major distribution companies such as Walmart and Amazon have stopped selling merchandise with Confederate flags.
Lou Holtz's Florida home sustains extensive damage after fire (Video)Graham Watson at Dr. Saturday 7 days ago
The Orlando, Fla., home belonging to former ESPN analyst Lou Holtz suffered extensive fire damage Sunday following what fire officials believe was a lightning strike.
Fire officials were checking with meteorologists about lightning strikes in the area and believe that was the cause of extensive damage to the 11,000-square-foot home.
The home, which is reportedly worth $1.6 million, was engulfed in flames and took 60 Orlando firefighters to fight and more than three hours to extinguish. Two firefighters suffered minor injuries during the blaze, but there were not other reported injuries.
Holtz retired from ESPN in April after spending the past 10 years as an analyst. The Hall of Fame coach had several coaching stops during his career, most notably with Notre Dame where his team was a consensus national champion in 1988.

Michelle Akers questions Jill Ellis' coaching strategy in pointed interviewGraham Watson at FC Yahoo 8 days ago
It's easy for analysts, talking heads, folks on Twitter to sit back and criticize the play of the United States women's national team so far during this Women's World Cup, but when a former players does it — a player who has won two World Cups — it's time to listen.
Michelle Akers, who played 15 years as a midfielder/forward for the U.S. and was on the World Cup-winning teams of 1991 and 1999, had some pointed words for coach Jill Ellis following the Americans' 2-0 win against Colombia on Monday.
"If she [Ellis] is pleased with the way we played tonight then what the hell is she doing coaching our U.S. team," Akers said during a two-minute segment on Sirius XM.
Here's the entire segment:
Akers acknowledged that she's taken the less-than-exemplary play of the U.S. personally because she's a former player who feels a connection with the current players. But she, like many watching at home, also feels bewildered by the lineup choices and substitutions Ellis is putting on the field.
Akers backtracked a bit in a Facebook post on Monday evening:

Thanks, to all for input. Also....on thegsresources, I've already been there and it seems a wealth of knowledge. One question on their site though...why do the postings appear so that the most recent posting is on page 1 and on the top? Seems odd to have to go the bottom of the last page to find the OP. Did I miss a page layout option?
Seems the popular opinion is to get the T running with the donated ignitor box off the E for now and do some riding. I know I have a few other issues to deal with on the T, along with the usual tire replacement, but it seems a proper start.
My idea for getting the title for the E cleaned up seems to have merit, after a conversation with a friend in another state that has less "picky" titling procedures. I plan to proceed with my plan; perfectly legal, but maybe a bit unconventional.
I don't know exactly when I'll get started on the T. I should finish up getting my project bike R75/6 BMW back on the road (it's close) and repair an oil leak on the 944 Porsche I bought from my son. I must have a soft spot for mutts.
If there are other ideas for the direction with these two bikes, the suggestion box is still open.

Chinese media recently gained access to the set of Wilson Yip's IP MAN 2 in Songjiang Studio, Shanghai where production is wrapping up with stars Donnie Yen and Sammo Hung filming their first screen duel since SPL. Yip was on hand to discuss the film and touched on topics including Sammo's heart trouble, emphasis on drama in this sequel, actor Huang Xiao-ming's screen fighting skills, and Bruce Lee's first appearance in the trilogy. Thanks to translation from Wu-Jing.org, we're able to reveal the details on what is shaping up to be one of the most highly anticipated martial arts movies of 2010.
Donnie Yen and Sammo Hung in Ip MAN 2. (Sina)
IP MAN 2 is the first sequel in a planned semi-biographical trilogy on the life of 20th century Wing Chun master Ip Man. (AKA Yip Man), best known in the West as Bruce Lee's martial arts instructor. The first film was a Hong Kong Film Award-winning smash hit that focused on Ip Man's early adult life in Foshan where he struggled through Japanese occupation. Donnie Yen was nominated for Best Actor for his starring role while Sammo Hung and Tony Leung Siu-hung were jointly awarded Best Action Choreography.
The sequel puts Yen back into the role of Ip Man, this time as he settles in Hong Kong where he opens a Wing Chun school and comes into conflict with a local Hung Fist master named Hung Jan-nam, who is played by Sammo Hung. Although Ip Man is ultimately challenged by the British who rule the territory and their hired fighters, tensions between the two kung fu masters mount to where they are forced to duel.
According to Wilson Yip, the two actors had been planning this fight for a very long time. "I believe it will become a classic, surpassing the first IP MAN film as well as SPL," said Yip. "As the duel takes place on such a small area (a round table), there will be an emphasis on the adroitness, and [it] will be very thrilling."
While Yip has high hopes that this rematch between Sammo Hung and Donnie Yen will surpass their previous duel in SPL he has had to deal with serious concerns over Sammo Hung's health. It was reported earlier this year that during production of IP MAN 2, Sammo Hung had been admitted to hospital to undergo heart surgery after suffering chest pain while on set. Although the procedure was a success and Hung quickly returned to filming, Yip made efforts to accommodate concerns over Hung's health.
"We tried to shoot drama scenes first. In addition, we'd shoot action scenes in which he worked behind the camera first, pushing any action scenes involving him as an actor to the back," said Yip. "However, being both the martial arts choreographer and the actor, Sammo Hung's workload was still very [demanding]. Over the two, three months of filming, you cannot help but admire Sammo Hung's attitude and perseverance. He's always so full of zest when filming."
A big question on everyone's mind has been when audiences will first get to see Ip Man's famous student Bruce Lee. Jiang Daiyan, a 10-year-old actor was selected to portray the late martial arts screen legend following an extensive talent search that focused largely on finding someone who looked like a young Bruce Lee.
"When filming the first installment, I was already being asked about Bruce Lee, though eventually, we didn't have him," said Yip. "In this sequel, we looked for a suitable candidate, and have completed his scenes. However, in the current 2.5 hours cut, I still have little inkling of which part of the film to put his scenes, and for how long."
Regarding IP MAN 3, Donnie Yen suggested that he may not be reprising his role. "Because IP MAN 2 will incontrovertibly become a classic, bettering the first, I believe it's best to end something when it's at perfection, and leave behind a good memory," said Yen.
"A successful film is a successful commercial product, once it has reached a certain position, I'd rather let it be a classic forever, as opposed to taking the risk to attempt outdoing it yet again. It would be very difficult to do the third installment. Perhaps, after a few years, when the director finds a new angle, we could talk about it later."
Despite his misgivings about continuing this particular role and previous suggestion of an early retirement, Yen made it clear that he isn't ready to give up making action movies any time soon. He cited plans for upcoming films that include THE LEGEND OF CHEN ZHEN, which begins production later this month, as well as a sequel to Daniel Lee's upcoming martial arts actioner 14 BLADES.
"Every film I do is an actioner so after doing it I feel extremely worn out. At that time, I would often think of having an early retirement. But, after a bit of rest, I'd be raring to receive the next challenge, so, I [will] still be around for a while," said Yen.
IP MAN 2 is currently scheduled for release in the summer of 2010.

Well, this isn't a dumb horse ad, but I thought it was an okay one. This was taken from the local newspaper.
"Horses need new homes! Free to good homes: 19yr old QH gelding, red roan color, & 9yr old Welsh pony mare, bay color. Have to down-size herd! Will need references. Please call for more information. (***) ***-****."
The Welsh pony has apparently already been sold as it was crossed out in the ad, but why is the gelding free? Makes me wonder. I'm tempted to call and ask about him.
