Hey, this is a quick demo on the famous big jump over the left side of the big Brooklin style bridge. There is a map in the video showing the spot. I used both Vito and Jimmy to make the stunts. Even Joe was here, but I had to cut him, he was screaming too loud... There are a few hidden jumps all over Empire Bay, will you find them all ?

Top seed Little Falls got a four-hitter from Tyler Baumeister Wednesday and defeated Dolgeville 10-0 in the Mohawk Valley Babe Ruth League's "A" Division championship game at Veterans Memorial Park.
Top seed Little Falls got a four-hitter from Tyler Baumeister Wednesday and defeated Dolgeville 10-0 in the Mohawk Valley Babe Ruth League's "A" Division championship game at Veterans Memorial Park.
Baumeister walked one batter, hit another and struck out seven in six innings. He also singled, doubled, drove in a run and scored twice as the team's cleanup hitter.
After Johann Doerrer set Little Falls down in order in the first inning, Baumeister started the second with a double and the helped his team open a 3-0 lead. Jon Willman's two-out triple brought home the game's first run. Doerrer hit Andy Mucica with a pitch and two more runs scored on a Michael Luppino single.
Little Falls added two runs in the third inning and three in the fifth. One run came home on a ground out in the sixth inning and Baumeister scored on a wild pitch to put the 10-run rule in effect and end the game.
Dolgeville had its leadoff batter reach base twice in the first three innings and left five runners on base in that stretch. Baumeister retired 12 of the final 13 Dolgeville batters, including seven in a row after Josh Gross singled with two outs in the fourth inning.
Reid Johnson's one-out single and a walk put Dolgeville runners at first and second in the first inning. Dakota Walrath started the second with a single and was left at first base. Baumeister hit Matt Holt leading off the third and Johnson followed with a single; Baumeister got out of the inning with two strikeouts and a pop fly to first baseman to Theo Wind.
After working out of the jam in the top of the third inning, Wind led off the bottom with a triple and scored on an error — the first of five — on Baumeister's ground ball to shortstop. After a walk and an out at the plate, Willman added an RBI with his second hit of the game.
Luppino added three runs batted in while Wind, Michael Izzo and Mucica all scored twice.
Dolgeville had come from behind against Canajoharie earlier in the evening to earn its spot in the championship game. Trailing 5-1, Dolgeville rallied to win 12-7.
The "B" Division semifinals and final will be played Thursday in Little Falls. Top seed Fort Plain meets Frankfort in one semifinal and Herkimer takes on Poland in the other. The semifinals will be played at 5:30 p.m. on the stadium field and the Babe Ruth field. The championship game is slated for a 7:30 p.m. start.

Yes, it is possible to have multiple carousel groups on one page, as long as they are the same type (either responsive or non-responsive). There is no limit as to how many can be placed on a page, though the page may eventually take longer to load, depending on how much content there is.

Powderhounds rejoice, your day has arrived. Mother Nature heard our snow blessing and brought six inches of snow to kick off the storm cycle. Today marks the first official powder day of 2012 and more is on its way. In fact storms are stacked up through the beginning of next week.
It was a delight to wake up to a snow covered historic Park City. We can't wait to see how much snow these storms deliver. To see more photos from this morning, visit our Photo Gallery and watch the video below filmed this morning.

M&S launches cheapest energy deal on the market
The energy provider's revamped 'Fix & Save' plan is now the least expensive tariff available in the country
by Michele Martinelli on
The new tariff will cost consumers £1,139 a year and is a fixed price contract which will end in September 2014. This means customers who switch to the tariff will not be affected by any price rises throughout the duration of the plan.
The contract includes a cancellation fee of £50 which would be charged to anyone looking to leave the plan ahead of its end date.
The new tariff is likely to positively impact sales following recent allegations that M&S Energy was mis-selling deals to customers.
'The most competitive deal on the market'
Tom Lyon, energy expert at uSwitch.com, says: "With M&S Energy hitting the headlines for all the wrong reasons this week, it's good to see it starting to return to its consumer-friendly form by giving its Fix & Save tariff a face-lift, making it the most competitive deal on the market.
"Consumers should think seriously about taking advantage of this plan which offers the best of both worlds. Not only is it the cheapest deal on the market – which will appeal to consumers looking to tighten their purse strings – but it is also fixed until the end of September 2014, so it comes with added peace of mind. However, any takers should be aware that there is a £50 cancellation fee attached.
"With hints of energy price rises this year, fixed price plans are an appealing option. And with many making it into the energy 'best buy' tables, consumers don't need to pay a premium for this protection. As ever though, consumers should always compare prices based on their own circumstances and individual needs before signing on the dotted line – this way they can be confident of getting the best deal."

How does this compare to the Co-Op to which I've just switched?
Bad move. They have just put your prices up.Should have gone with M&s.
I just switched last month to EDF Blue and it has a standing charge plus is 2p per Kw more expensive so I'm switching to the M&S one. Loads cheaper!
http://uswitch.com/ Dew Alam
The M&S offer on our site is currently the cheapest energy deal on the market. Check it out- http://www.uswitch.com/gas-electricity/guides/cheapest-gas-and-electricity/
If I'm a sse customer can I still sign up to the m&s deal???
Michele Martinelli
Hi Stewart,
I believe you should still be able to switch although you need to get in touch with M&S Energy
keith Hanson
Am I right in thinking the price is set no matter how much fuel you use?
http://uswitch.com/ Dew Alam
Hi Keith, as the article states, the new tariff will cost consumers £1,139 a year and is a fixed price contract which will end in September 2014. This means customers who switch to the tariff will not be affected by any price rises throughout the duration of the plan.
Michele Martinelli
Hi again Keith,
The price is based on the cost per average user – consuming 3,300 kWh of electricity and 16,500 kWh of gas a year paying by monthly direct debit (averaged across all regions).
Sorry for any confusion.
keith Hanson
You still didn't say it is regardless of usage the total price remain s the same
Michele Martinelli
Hi Keith,
You can find more information on how fixed rate plans work here – http://www.uswitch.com/gas-electricity/guides/fixed-price-energy/
I am moving house in next few months, can I just take this offer with me to a new property or will I have to cancel pay £50.00 and then start again with M & S
Michele Martinelli
Hi Dee,
According to the plan's terms and conditions:
"If you leave the Address to which the Fix & Save tariff applies you will usually be able to transfer the tariff to another property."
So it shouldn't be a problem.
ding dong
Better idea,
Transfer the address to the next door neighbour and he will be lumbered with the bill.
I am with nPower, Do other companies including M&S honour "Feed-in Tariff payments"?
Michele Martinelli
If you is already registered for FITs with SSE and sign up for a M&S Energy tariff, then SSE will continue to honour your FIT agreement.
If you are not with SSE for your FITs and want to change to M&S Energy for your energy and FITs, then you will need to complete your energy switch first with M&S energy and then contact the FIT Bureau on 0845 076 7634 to arrange to move your FITs to SSE from your current FIT supplier.
Hope that makes sense!
We want clear pricing.Not gobbledegook .e.g total price per unit including all their add on;s
Michele Martinelli
Hello IB,
Total price per unit varies depending on your postcode. If you send an email with this information to email@example.com I can let you know.
Dew Alam is at best disingenuous and at worst, legally , arguably fraudulent. U-Switch can no longer be trusted as a website its' priorities being so biased in favour of the advertiser ( as opposed to the consumer) as to render its' recommendations meaningless.
Which company is behind M&S Energy, i.e. who is actually supplying the energy??
Michele Martinelli
Hi jc,
That would be SSE – you can find more details here http://www.uswitch.com/gas-electricity/suppliers/m-and-s-energy/
How does it compare with british gas
Michele Martinelli
Hi Ellie,
This really depends on your personal circumstances. the easiest way to find out which plan is best for you is to run a comparison – http://www.uswitch.com/gas-electricity/
How do I switch
Michele Martinelli
Hi Donna,
You should find everything you need here – http://www.uswitch.com/gas-electricity/
Feel free to get in touch if you need any help!
I used 24181 kWh Gas and 4523 kWh electricity last year. Will I be able to join this plan @ £1139.00
Michele Martinelli
Hi Mick,
The average bill size is based on the average usage of 16500kwh/pa gas and 3300kwh/pa electricity. Your usage is higher than this so your bill size will be different. Prices also depend on your postcode so I would suggest running a quick comparison here – http://www.uswitch.com/gas-electricity/ – to find out what plan is best suited to your needs.
J Lewis
We have been with M & S energy since they first went in to the stores asking for people to switch from SSE. Do we qualify for this fixed price
Michele Martinelli
Hi J Lewis,
You are eligible, however, you would have to apply directly through M&S energy.
if it is such a good deal why the £50 fine for early exit ,customers would not leave a good deal
Neil S
Currently I am using about 7000kWh of Electricity and 15000 kWh pa of gas for which I am paying £145 pcm. (£1740pa). with Southern Electric. I have been on uSwitch in the past and could save at most less than £200 by switching. Surely I cannot switch to paying only £1139 – the £600 difference (hopefully less) must be recovered somehow?! A lump sum payment? Also I have just revisited USwitch and this M&S deal does not appear?
Michele Martinelli
Hi Neil,
Afraid I can't answer this without knowing your postcode. Easiest way to find out how much you can save is to run a price comparison – http://www.uswitch.com/gas-electricity/
For the most accurate results you should do this armed with a copy of your latest bill.
As IB said lets have the actual tariffs ie pence /kilowatt and standing charge per day and if the rate is held for the term of the contract. Show us you are not really in collusion with the suppliers.
I want the tariffs for Economy 7 or equivalent for the Eastern Region. Never mind the wine or the hype people. Don't sign up for this unless you get the actual tariffs and do the calculation on your existing bill or future offered tariffs.
Michele Martinelli
Hi DC,
The rates for your household will be displayed when you run a price comparison here – http://www.uswitch.com/gas-electricity/
M&S Fix and Save rates for eastern region economy 7 electricity are:
Unit price(pence per kWh)
First 2464 kWh
13.062p incl. VAT
Remaining 3012 kWh
6.153p incl. VAT
Standing charge
£84.01 incl. VAT
How does this compare with Blue as I fixed until 2014?
Michele Martinelli
This really depends on your personal circumstances.
I would suggest running a comparison to find out which plan is most suited to our needs – http://www.uswitch.com/gas-electricity/
You also need to decide if you are more interested in a longer term fixed price deal or simply a cheaper price. You can find more information on the pros and cons here – http://www.uswitch.com/gas-electricity/guides/fixed-price-energy/
Only energy prices are fixed until Sept 2014 but Standing Charge is not fixed and can go up at anytime. Is it still worth changing?
Michele Martinelli
Hi L.T.
The Standing Charge on this plan is fixed.
Gail T
I take it this includes both the gas and electric.
Michele Martinelli
Hi Gail,
You are correct – the plan covers both.
Dave Robins
I signed up with USWITCH for a gas/electric contract with M&S Energy at a very good price, but the contract supplied by M&S Energy came back at a far higher cost to what USWITCH advertised, so beware.
I have just seen on U.Switch news, there is E.D.F. fixed price unti 2016, but I can't find anything abot it anywhere else. at the moment My plan with E.D.F. finishes September,
what are their rates for Dual fuel supply, on this much talked about plan? I cannot find it here?
Michele Martinelli
Hi TP,
The plan coves gas and electric.
Gas and Electric Legend
This is not strictly true… Scottish Power are very similar in price and don't have a cancel fee…. you apply the cancel fee and SP would be cheaper… WHY CANCEL FEES????? not confident in the rates???????
I'm with Atlantic, they seem pretty cheap, is this better?
Michele Martinelli
Hi David,
This plan is the cheapest on average so may not actually work out as the cheapest for you. The best way to get an accurate overview of the market is to run a price comparison here – http://www.uswitch.com/gas-electricity/.
Just swithched from Eon and saved £250 per annum, thanks for the tip to monitor the end date so we don't roll over onto a higher rate
Michele Martinelli
Hi Lynne – delighted we were able to help!

Michele Martinelli
Hi terence,

Little Bill
If the quality of their energy is anything like their underpants then stay well clear.
My latest Y fronts began to sag alarmingly at the back after only a couple of wears.
You have been warned!
what gets me they are making all this money the price rise and they make a standing charge the government should outlaw this my standing charge is allways more than my bill
I'm with Southern Electricity and suffer from pay as you go meters. They have now changed the way we pay and the standing charge has been introduced at £100 per fuel "to make our pricing structure clearer". As a low user, this means the advertised 8.2% increase is more like 33% for me.
Mark Mcnicholas
Why can't the UK leave all of these "green" agreements, open up open caste coal mines and burn coal in well filtered power stations. We could manufacture gas as well. I am sure greater efficiency (like ground source heat pumps, or local or home solar cells) added to the exploitation of our natural resources like coal, with all this green tax nonsense abolished would see a drop of 50% in bills before 2020. You know it makes sense.
Susie Q
Is there an Energy Company which gives an allowance for having to use more electricity due to medical conditions, i.e. having to use a CPAP machine every single night (otherwise my husband would stop breathing).?
I would be surprised if there was a company that gave such an allowance given that they are only in it for profit. Companies don't give discounts unless they get something out of it e.g. holiday companies and restaurants sometimes have kids go free deals because it's worth paying a little subsidy when they are about to make a huge profit out of the family. They only ever use subsidies as an enticement to get more out of people e.g. laughably small discounts for pensioners visiting tourist or cultural sights. A few trendy clothes shops and cinemas give tiny discounts to students because they know they'll get more out them that way than not having their custom at all, especially when they know young people are usually very interested in clothes and have less experience comparing prices and value. There are never any subsidies for unemployed or sick because companies don't see themselves getting anything out of them in the short or long term. The best you could hope for with an energy company is that they have a two tier system where the first few units consumption is very high but anything over that is very cheap so the more you use the better value you get, but as it's all so expensive these days, whatever you do is going to be poor value. The government should give people with extra fuel needs an allowance for this. They used to have this a long time ago but did away with it. It sounds as though your husband would at least be eligible for so-called Personal Independence Payments or PIP, the replacement for DLA. I hope at least he's claiming PIP as it sounds as though he would be eligible for high rate.
The government are making extra revenue on all these price hikes from the vat on the increases. Domestic energy should be vat free. it is as vital as food to the vulnerable in our society. Why is no one raising this with the government,
I seem to remember some time ago there was a huge outcry about standing charges being levied by the utility companies and, as a result, they were dropped. Now they are once again being levied which can add a considerable amount to one's bills. Why is this being allowed to happen? Will no-one look after the consumers' interests?
Sharon Calladine
the price rises in energy prices was down to the tory goverment every year they would raise the energy componays green taxes and the energy comps would pass that rise in taxes to us the public then the torys would raise the energy componys taxes the next year then the big 6 would put that tax rise on to the publics energy bill again and so on and so on it shouldent have been allowed if there was more transparency between customers and the energy comps it would never have gone this far the tory goverment should have been more transparent to hiding huge tax rises on energy seems like the torys were in cahoots with the energy companys on highering the energy prices so they would both benefit out of a rigged marktet

Just did price comparison and M&S was dearest!!!

Hi Ian,
This article dates back to 9 August – best to run a price comparison to find out what the best tariff for you is now – http://www.uswitch.com/gas-electricity/

But how long will it be the cheapest for??

I'm afraid it's been withdrawn from the market – you can find the cheapest plan for you by entering your postcode here – http://www.uswitch.com/gas-electricity/

When someone talks about The Catechism, they probably mean The Catechism of the Catholic Church, which is the official and most commonly used catechism of the Catholic Church. It is used by clergy and laypeople alike to answer questions about Catholic beliefs and doctrines. It not only reveals the official interpretation of the Bible, but also covers Catholic traditions, proclamations of past Popes, and liturgical texts.
Although The Catechism is the official, definitive catechism of the Catholic Church, it isn't the only one out there. The Catechism outlines the doctrine of the Church, but it doesn't restrict how that information should be organized or presented. You can find Catholic catechisms in different translations (the definitive Catechism is written in Latin), for different age groups, and with a particular focus.
Catholics don't have a monopoly on catechisms, either. Other Christian denominations use a catechism to pass on their beliefs about faith and morality for generations.

Shihan Prather has been inducted twice into the US Martial Arts Hall of Fame, published and featured in both U.S. and Japan's most prestigious martial arts magazines, and his books and DVDs sell worldwide. Shihan Prather was awarded a second Shihan rank by Soke Hatsumi in Shinkengata (real life combat) and has been awarded the prestigious Dragon Gold Medal by Soke twice. All ranks and certificates come from Hatsumi Soke and the Hombu in Japan.
30 years after becoming Soke's personal student, Prather Shihan returned again to Japan to visit his teacher and longtime friends. Please visit our photo gallery to view some highlights of his trip!

CEDAR RAPIDS - Mary Lou Thornburg underwent rapid recovery total knee replacement surgery on Wednesday morning. You can watch the entire surgery by clicking on the links to the left.
Arthritis can mean pain while walking or climbing stairs. And for some with arthritis of the knee, it even means feeling pain while sitting or lying down.
One Independence woman is hoping a high-tech surgery will help her to get moving again.
Mary Lou Thornberg is in her late 50's, and is by all doctors standards healthy. Her knee is the exception. She has suffered from painful osteoarthritis for years. It's gotten to the point where it's holding her back from things she likes to do.
"I should've had this done probably 6 years ago, cause I kept putting it off," Thornburg said. "I garden I flower, I do everything. I still do it, but it takes me a little longer."
After being injured at work, the workwell doctor asked her how she could stand the pain. He told her "your knee is a mess.". She agreed. And so she decided to go ahead and have a total knee replacement surgery.
Dr. Jeffrey Nassif will be performing Mary Lou's knee replacement surgery. He says they make smaller incisions, and cut less tissue than just a few years ago.
"We remove all the arthritis that's in there, we place caps on the end of the bone that are made out of metal," Nassif said. "There's a plastic bearing surface in between."
Getting rid of the arthritic surface on her bone should help reduce pain. Thornberg says on a scale of 1 to 10, with 10 being the worst, her knee pain is at a 9.
"At night I can't sleep because it's like electric shock, that's what it feels like."
According to the Mayo Foundation for Medical Education and Research, more than 95% of patients who have a total knee replacement surgery report significant reduction in pain, better mobility, and a better quality of life. Thornberg is hoping she's part of that 95 percent.
Wednesday, April 1st at 9 a.m., she will have her knee replaced at St. Luke's Hospital.
"A lot of it is mind over matter," Thornburg says. "I didn't 'want to have surgery. I thought, I'll just keep going as long as I can. After surgery they said a couple hours and I'd be up and moving. I said that's fine with me!"
She's ready to move on and hopefully be pain free.
So at what point to doctors recommend you consider a total knee replacement?
If you're having severe knee pain that limits your day to day activities like walking you should consider it. Docs say if your knee is bowing in or out or If you're seeing an inability to bend or straighten your knee if might be time. And finally, if other therapies didn't do the trick, things like rehabilitation and cortisone injections, surgery may be for you.

In our marine toxicology work, we seek to understand how toxic a chemical is to a marine species and amphibians in an effort to understand how environmental pollutants might be endangering them. We focus on damage to DNA, since this type of damage can interfere with the ability of these species to reproduce and the ability of their offspring to survive. Thus, our hypothesis is that environmental contaminants are decreasing the reproductive success of marine species.
Current studies of metal toxicology in marine species and amphibians in the Wise Laboratory of Genetic and Environmental Toxicology include:

|Bowhead Whales
|Marine Invertebrate Studies

FORT WALTON BEACH — City Manager Michael Beedie knows the old sewer plant like the back of his hand.
Point to a building and he can tell you when it was built and how it was used before the facility shut down in 2009.
Beedie, who is a licensed engineer, agrees it's an unusual place to put a homeless shelter, but he's backing a plan to do just that.
"It's still a good, solid building — cinderblock, built in the late 70s," he said during a recent tour of the property. "There's still a lot of clean up that needs to be done."
The Fort Walton Beach City Council has agreed to lease a portion of the property, located in a wooded area off of North Beal Extension, to local nonprofit Community Solutions for $1 a month.
Using grant money and donations, the group plans to use the property first for cold night shelters and free meals. Its long-term goal is to establish a one-stop-shop resource center that provides job training and other assistance.
"This is the step we've never taken before," said Beedie, who also serves as Community Solutions' treasurer. "We're really hoping the community steps up to help."
Homeless sound off on new shelter
'They're just like us': Residents weigh in on nearby homeless shelter
The 18-acre plant sits on a small, secluded pocket of city property surrounded by Eglin land to the north and a smattering of businesses and quiet neighborhoods to the south. The shelter project will use about 8 acres along with multiple buildings.
The buildings are old but sturdy and largely empty, with only a single sewer crew using the warehouse for repair work.
Patches of green grass are scattered about the property where the homeless might be allowed to pitch tents.
Beedie said the chain-link fence topped with barbed wire that surrounds the plant will remain in place for a while even after Community Solutions takes over.
The first phase of construction targets the former coil filter building – a large L-shaped cinderblock structure where chemical processing took place.
Today it's filled with old equipment, furniture and piles of trash, but the plan is to renovate it for use as a shelter, kitchen and cafeteria.
"They'll have to sanitize it," Beedie said. "We've got to bring the whole place up to code."
The building's outer shell and foundation might be the only portions used in the rehab, he added.
"It will be a major renovation to outfit this building to be an inhabitable shelter, but it is definitely something to work from," Beedie said.
The other building to be converted to a shelter is a pole barn that currently houses equipment.
Beedie said the group must find enough shelter space to accommodate women and children separately from the men.
One challenge that will have to be met is securing the giant above-ground sewer tanks that sit on the property so that they don't pose a risk to guests, particularly children.
The second phase of construction will turn the main office building into a resource center where community providers can hold office hours and serve clients.
Beedie, who wears two hats in this venture, is overseeing the lease negotiations with Community Solutions.
"It's great that we took this step, but I'm trying to keep from going too fast," he said.
The top priority is making sure the city avoids any liability, Beedie said.
"There is a role for the city and it's not financial," he said. "As long as I am here, I will never recommend that we use taxpayer money here."

The $1,099 Sony VAIO T Series 15 Touch Ultrabook combines fast performance in a portable design. Its design stands out from the crowd, but still exudes a level of sophistication that will appeal to both student and mobile professionals. The full HD touch-screen display is beautiful, but the battery life and mushy keyboard leave something to be desired.

Intel HD Graphics 4000: Processor graphics card in the high end Ivy Bridge models. Offers a different clock speed in the different CPU models (ULV to desktop quad core) and therefore a different performance.
Modern games should be playable with these graphics cards at low settings and resolutions. Casual gamers may be happy with these cards.
» Further information can be found in our Comparison of Mobile Graphics Cards and the corresponding Benchmark List.
Intel Core i7: The Intel Core i7 for laptops is based on the LG1156 Core i5/i7 CPU for desktops. The base clock speed of the CPUs is relatively low, but because of a huge Turbo mode, the cores can dynamically overclock to up to 3.2 GHz (920XM). Therefore, the CPU can be as fast as high clocked dual-core CPUs (using single threaded applications) but still offer the advantage of 4 cores. Because of the large TDP of 45 W / 55 W, the CPU is only intended for large laptops.
3537U: Fast Ivy-Bridge-based ULV-CPU in Q1 2013. Offers a core clock of 2.0 - 3.1 GHz and an HD 4000 GPU (350 - 1200 MHz). The TDP is rated at 17 W.» Further information can be found in our Comparison of Mobile Processsors.

text: i like this blog a lot, hit certain things. I honesty think hulk hogan should go back to television and movies and when he is at radio stations tna should pay him only if he plugs certain things about tna, but hogan should be on a sitcom, this can garner new fans. the second show should be on saturday nights and should be knockout matches and x division with new wrestlers. They should create some story lines there and that would lead to impact. the second show could be matches from either house shows or impact zone, but if tna wants to get it bigger, they should let that b show be for the impact zone and impact show should go live and maybe hit up madison square garden.

12:00 AM — When Harry Potter first burst onto the scene and all those columnists in the newspapers began churning out ream after ream of gushing praise for the wonderful originality and depth of J K Rowling's contributions to fantasy fiction and children's literature, the few dissenting voices most often brought up C S Lewis' Chronicles of Narnia as a prime example of a classic children's book series that had done it all before.

WOW That is one sweet M23 !!!
It's more the engine capacity.
I am actually not sure if the frame is the same. I know I have an article that compares the two models but I will need to dig for it.
The Mk 2 has a slightly larger wheelbase of 1315 mm vs 1305 on the M8
" " heavier at 102 Kilos vs. 97 Kilos "
Both are the same height at both seat and bars.
It is surprising how much beefier the Mk2 feels next to the M8 looking at those #'s, but the Mk 2 definitely feels bigger.
I am 5'6 155 and the smaller bike fits me like a glove.
PSchrauber has good reason to have issues with the Metralla as despite the simple design they can be finicky.
I have been chasing small problems since I got it.
I would not feel comfortable riding a long way on it not only for the mechanical/electrical gremlins but because they vibrate like crazy.
You need to keep the torque wrench ready and the story goes that with the Mk2 you had to carry a pocketful of plugs and tail lights.
But I love it none the less.

It is this which produces bitterness and strife between brethren and friends; which causes treacherous murder and desolating war. Care and sorrow, weary days and sleepless nights, are its attendants.

What happens when your child doesn't make the team, or get that part in the school play they wanted so badly?
My three kids have competed against their peers many times, sometimes successfully, many times not. Whether they win or lose, there's always something to learn from it, and it's not always good.
When kids win, they feel guilty - "I won, and they didn't." They worry it will affect their friendships in some way.
When they lose, they're sad, confused, and sometimes feel like giving up. I can tell you that's happened in my family. My youngest daughter made the school baseball team in Grade 5 and 6, but was a "spare." Her teacher/coach rarely called her to play. She, and a couple of other girls who were also spares went to every practice and every game, and then sat and watched their team mates play. After a couple of years of that, she refused to try out again.
She also played flag football for one year, but didn't make the team the next year. Her friends who did felt badly for her. They all wanted to play together, because at their age, it was mainly a social activity. My daughter has now refused to try out for anything at school.
I feel sad for her. She wasn't the best player around, and I'd be the first to admit that. But now she's not a player at all. And she's 12. She's not running around on the field with her friends, she's not getting the exercise, and worst of all, she feels she's not very good at sports.
Why does elementary school sports have to be so competitive? Why can't the "team" play for fun, learn the skills together, get the exercise they need? And what are we teaching our kids when we say, "Some of you are good, and some of you are not"? Or, is this one of those inevitable life lessons that we all have to learn?
Check out our show on competition on Your Voice, where we'll ask our experts, "Should Kids Compete?"

A US man who hid in the tank of a portable toilet to spy on women at a yoga festival has been jailed for three years.
Luke Chrisco was arrested at the event in Boulder County, Colorado, in 2011 after a woman noticed something moving in the tank below her.
She then saw a man covered in faeces emerge from the toilet and sprint off.
Police said Chrisco was also suspected of hiding in other public toilets in the area to spy on women for his sexual gratification.
The 32-year-old, originally from Grand Junction, pleaded guilty in July to attempted unlawful sexual contact and two counts of burglary.
Prosecutors dropped six other burglary charges and one count of criminal invasion as part of a plea bargain.
After the time he has already spent in custody, he may be released from prison in the next few months.
The Boulder County District Attorney's Office said after he is freed, he will be put on probation for 10 years and undergo mental health and sexual offender treatment.
Deputy District Attorney Catrina Weigel had asked for him to be jailed for eight years, saying there was a high risk of him re-offending.
Chrisco told police shortly after his arrest that he had spied on women in toilets across the US and Europe, she added.
Matt Connell, the fourth attorney to represent Chrisco in the 24 months since his arrest, argued that his client has been taking medication for his mental health issues, and is unlikely to receive proper help in prison.
"The acts that he committed were gross. They were disgusting. They were repulsive. I understand that, but he was in a delusional state of mind. He was psychotic. He was hallucinating," Mr Connell said.
"He's sick in a sad and pathetic way and he needs help, and that can best be delivered through probation."

There are new reports about a sophisticated phishing message that purports to come from "New York University District Information technology Service ( ITS )". The message claims that ITS is "undertaking some essential, but extensive, maintenance to improve our webmail this week" and requests your password, name, and other personal information to avoid shutting down your NYU email account. The fraudulent message requests that the recipient reply back to non-NYU email accounts, and in this case, a "@upgrade.com" and "@yahoo.com" email addresses.
NYU community members should NEVER REPLY TO ANY email that requests the recipient's email login name and password. Instead, forward phishing messages as an attachment to our email filtering account email@example.com. Doing so trains our email filters to prevent such types of spam from arriving into inboxes.
Please note: It is very important to forward the message as an attachment, otherwise our email filters will not be able to parse through the message correctly.
As a reminder of better security practices, always remember that:
- No NYU community member will ever ask for your account password, especially not over email.
- Do not reply back to emails from unidentified, untrusted sources.
- Forward all phishing messages as an attachment to firstname.lastname@example.com. This helps train our email filters to block such messages in the future.
- Messages that request personal information over plaintext email should be regarded as being suspicious. If it is spam, forward it to firstname.lastname@example.com. When in doubt, do not reply and contact email@example.com.
- If a message informs you of an impending "account closure" unless you comply with its demands, it is often a sign that the message is a phishing scam. Do not comply with its requests.
The following sites also provide several useful tips on defending against these types of phishing attacks:

Equity and Well-Being
Measurement and Policy Practice
By Hyun Hwa Son
Routledge – 2011 – 254 pages
Routledge – 2011 – 254 pages
Equity is an abstract concept covering philosophical issues such as fairness and social justice, making its definition and measurement complex. This volume tackles these complexities head-on. The book is enriched with many empirical analyses and provides a comprehensive analysis of equity ranging from concepts and measurements to empirical illustrations and policy implications.
After an extensive discussion on equity in the introduction, this volume begins with a chapter on well-being where the concepts of functioning and capability are discussed. This is followed by a few chapters on what an equitable distribution is and how equity can be measured. The volume then provides a definition and a methodology to measure equitable growth, examining the relationship between growth, inequality, and poverty. It also presents various empirical illustrations and country-specific experiences with three country case studies which assess whether publicly provided health and education services are equitable in developing Asia, examining the extent to which these social services favor the poor as well as the policy challenges to a more equitable delivery of these services. Finally, these country studies provide evidence–based policy recommendations to improve equity in social service delivery in developing countries.
Achieving social equity has long been an important policy goal. There are relatively few studies on equity. This book aims to help fill this gap with an in-depth analysis of the issues associated with equity, covering its concept, measurement, and policy practices and implications.
