This is actually one of the advantages of the Chrisitini system because it allows the bike to turn better with some rear wheel slip, until it needs the front assist.
And I don't understand why you think that the front wheel suddenly engaging will cause a crash?
In my experience it is just the opposite. When drifting the bike on a loose surface with the power full throttle and the back wheel begins to break away, the front begins driving and actually stops the bike from low siding. It doesn't really matter what you call it, it works!! I am in the process of gearing up the front drive to get more pull from the front tire sooner. I also have finished adapting my supermoto wheels to the bike, so it will be interesting to see how it works on pavement and dirt with street tires. Here is an article written by a World Supermoto racer who tested a Christini SM bike and liked it a lot:
Dude, you are on! Right on!
The only reservations I have is when you take away the larger front hoop that lets the over-run dis-engage and as you correctly say "allow the turn-in"...
Now replace the front with a diameter that closer matches the rear and technically the two will be fighting or close (in rotation) for drive, front V. rear...
No big deal, not pooing on Christini... I just think new pilots on Supermoto type rigs need to be aware of this before they get real aggressive in their backing-it-in.
It can be argued that hydroplaning has almost if not the exact effects (seat of the pants on the bike) as backing it in. In a straight line, you're golden.
Now introduce steering angle, a f/r traction bias... Now add power, and the results could be an offy.
If the Christini had a diff between the front and rear, transitions in traction and power would be seamless. But as said a wheelie would stop it... And a center ltd slip or Viscous coupler might not work out on a motorcycle.
Clarification: For North America, most of the Supermoto tracks are 100% paved. In Europe, it's prolly opposite.
Pavement only, I don't think the thing will work or be worth the money at all and I think it's popularity would be placebo.
Link backs up my opinion as well.
Everyday IS
Everybody's always talking out the side of their mouths about our "dependency on foreign oil", what about our dependency on cheap china crap? Who exactly again is killing our dollar?

As I reflect, I am appreciating that it has been a time of both tremendous change and challenge for the Little Company of Mary Hospital family. As we look back over the past year and realize that although many features of our physical facility have changed, these changes only serve to enhance what has always been at the core of Little Company's commitment to providing the best in compassionate, quality healthcare.
The ability to inspire others to be their best and effect change is one of the key qualities needed by those in positions of leadership. Sr. Kathleen McIntyre, LCM, was a leader who embodied those and many other characteristics. Anyone who met Sr. Kathleen was immediately enchanted by her keen wit and infectious spirit. Sadly, Little Company lost this great leader in April of this year and she will be dearly missed – yet Sr. Kathleen's legacy will live on for decades to come.
It was Sr. Kathleen's vision of what Little Company needed to do to keep itself at the forefront of excellent patient care that led to the comprehensive four-year process of campus transformation. I invite you to have a glimpse of our transformed campus and hear from those who helped bring the vision into reality. You will find a unique blending of our rich 85-year heritage and contemporary design – one that reverences all that came before, yet emboldens us to move forward into the future and embrace the ever-changing healthcare landscape.
Our Values.Vision.Innovation: Campaign for Little Company of Mary Hospital is now complete. We have surpassed our goal of $12.5 million and we have every one of you who made a gift over the past six years to thank. We could not have done it without you, and we are humbled by your unwavering support to see the campaign through.
On behalf of the LCMH Foundation Board of Directors and staff, I thank you for your continuing generosity in support of our mission and ministry.
In gratitude,
Brian T. Lepacek, MDiv
Executive Director, Foundation

Sofía, a 25-year-old woman who has applied for asylum and also requested anonymity, was held for two weeks.
"Maybe the lunatics really have taken over the asylum," one former Murdoch tabloid editor mused to me.
Upon entry, he walked up to the first immigration officer he saw, and asked for asylum.
early 15c., earlier asile (late 14c.), from Latin asylum "sanctuary," from Greek asylon "refuge," noun use of neuter of asylos "inviolable, safe from violence," especially of persons seeking protection, from a- "without" + syle "right of seizure." So literally "an inviolable place." General sense of "safe or secure place" is from 1640s; meaning "benevolent institution to shelter some class of persons" is from 1776.

An institution for the care of people, especially individuals with physical or mental impairments, who require organized supervision or assistance.

We are dedicated to providing marketers with actionable research and are the most trusted sources of timely and targeted information for marketers around the globe.
To accomplish this goal, we have recently made all of our articles open to the public. We also have a premium membership option that will add even more value to your marketing efforts, which also includes an automatic 20% off all publications, workshops and Summits.
With multiple research studies always underway at MarketingSherpa, sometimes certain topics deserve a deeper dive. Special Reports are an outgrowth of our Benchmark Reports and Handbooks and offer a more focused look at specific areas of marketing that cannot be covered as in-depth in our larger publications.
Typically fewer than 15 pages in length, these reports contain a lot of insights, yet keep it brief for the busy marketer. Our members get each and every Special Report for free (they are normally $97 in our store). That's over $970 worth of research included for free as part of your membership.
You wish you had an extra day in the week to read about the latest developments in marketing. But warping time and space is not in your marketing budget. MarketingSherpa alone releases over 20 different newsletters each month, so it's easy to get behind on your reading.
Our Quick Guides are the solution. About twice every month, we go through the most interesting material on a single topic, find additional information and resources, and publish a report that you can read over lunch with time to spare.
Information is power, and marketers spend thousands of dollars every year on MarketingSherpa publications, workshops, and summits. So the simple math is: if you were going to attend one of our Summits and buy a few books, this discount alone would pay for all the other membership perks.
This 20% discount can be applied to everything in our store, and applies in addition to any other promotions or discounts applicable at the time of purchase. However, with our training options (Summits, workshops, courses), if more than one ticket or course is purchased, only the members will receive the discount. Also, only two discounts can be applied to an order at one time.
It's easy to get mired in keyword search and be overwhelmed by all the case studies, how-to articles, print publications, newsletters and other research on the MarketingSherpa site. To help our members find the right resources and get the answers they need, we've added a new members-only Librarian service. Need to know about specific area of marketing? No problem...if we've got research on the topic, our experts will help you find it.
From time-to-time, we will inform you of special member-only perks things like special deals, member-only webinars, round-table breakfasts at summits and more. You are valuable to us and we'll show our appreciation with unique benefits just for you.

Muslim Public Affairs Centre, MPAC, has said it will engage all lawful means to frustrate the decision of the Lagos State Ministry of Education with respect to the recent ban on hijab, adding that it will continue to actively work with other Islamic organizations and stakeholders towards expanding the coalition to achieve reversal of the ban in the quickest possible time.
In a similar vein, the Muslim Rights Concern, MURIC, called the attention of senior citizens in Lagos, men of goodwill, the Nigerian security agencies, human rights organizations and the international community to wade into the matter immediately.
MURIC in its statement said: "Muslims are peace-loving people. They go their own ways until authorities push them to the wall. The Allah-given and fundamental rights of Lagos Muslims are being flagrantly denied today by the Lagos State government."
"Muslims are civilized and cultured people. We issue no threats, but let nobody make a mistake about our resolve to ensure that justice is done. Already, MURIC has reported this hijab case to some international and local human rights bodies so that the whole world will know what is happening here.
Letters have been forwarded to Human Rights Watch, Amnesty International, The Islamic Human Rights Commission, National Human Rights Commission as well as the House of Representatives' Committee on Human Rights in Abuja. This is just the beginning. All available legitimate options are on the table."
MURIC however urged the Lagos State House of Assembly to re-open dialogue on the demand of Muslims in the state on the use of hijab in public schools; and to put in place a public hearing on the matter that will be well publicised and attended by Islamic organizations. It also demand for investigation and sanction against the principal of Kadara High School who was reported to have caned Aishat Alabi, a JSS I student for wearing hijab.
In a seperate statement signed by the chairman of MPAC, Disu Kamor, the group expressed shock that the Lagos State Ministry of Education will prevent students in public schools in the state from using the hijab (the obligatory female Muslim head covering). The Commissioner for Education Mrs. Olayinka Oladunjoye had said last week at a press briefing in Ikeja that "usage of Hijab and other religious materials in public schools was against government's policy".
According to MPAC; "it is in flagrant violation of the religious and civic rights of the pupils. MPAC is shocked that rather than speak on behalf of the Constitution she swore an oath to defend, Mrs. Oladunjoye is taking the State in a course of confrontation and down the dead end of religious intolerance.
The Lagos State government should have seen the use of hijab in public schools in the state as an opportunity to reinforce common public perception of Lagos State as a melting-pot and a good example where diverse groups and ideas co-exist peacefully, thus upholding the democratic ideals of inclusion and diversity."
Reacting further, the association said this decision is capable of bringing Muslims who desire to obey the Qur'anic injunction of adorning the hijab in all public places into confrontation with the school authority as the hijab will continue to be used in schools and workplaces.
"One thing is certain, the decision of the Lagos State Ministry of Education, although shocking, will not prevent the use of hijab in public schools, or anywhere else. Rather it will strengthen the resolve to fulfil aspiration to obey the divine injunction, at all costs.
Everyone who holds dear the values of freedom and equality that the people of Nigeria have struggled so hard to establish over the years should also find the decision shocking- to witness the Ministry blatantly subscribing to this discriminatory policy and use of state power as a means of implementing tyranny emphasises the need to deepen our democracy through active political participation."
MPAC however stated that it awaits the position of the State House of Assembly on the issue just as it hopes that the lawmakers will show honour and courage to act on the side of justice and fairness. "Ultimately, it is the decision at the grassroots level for millions of Muslim women to wear the Hijab in all public schools and places of work which will prove official discriminatory policy not only unnecessary and ignorant, but also simply unworkable. MPAC will intensify campaigns for the rights of female Muslims to freely make their choices concerning hijab and their rights to implement that decision without threat of intimidation or persecution.
UNIFEMGA reacts
The Obafemi Awolowo University Muslim Graduates Association (UNIFEMGA) has also condemned the ban on the use of hijab by Muslim female students in all Lagos Public schools.
In a statement signed by its National President, Prof. Wahab Egbewole and Abdur-Rahman Balogun, National Public Relations officer, said such ban was a breach of the fundamental rights of the students to practice their religion.
Oladunjoye rather claimed in her press briefing that wearing hijab would cause confusion and break down of the law.
UNIFEMGA argued that hijab is part religious obligation of a Muslim woman that cannot be detached from her work or studies.
"If the Lagos state Government, or the Ministry knows that the affected students need to wear hijab when they go for prayers or read Quran, why would it be restricted," the group queried.
"It is unacceptable and laughable that wearing of hijab will create confusion and break down of law as claimed by the commissioner during her press conference."
"We want to say categorically that even in advanced democracy, this right is guaranteed to Muslim female students to dress in accordance with their faith".
As a Muslim alumni body, we have not heard of any state or public schools where wearing of hijab causes confusion or led to break down of law and order".
"It is actually an affront on our faith system to equate hijab with confusion or break down of law. It is also insulting to the collectivity of our faith to say that Muslims should send their daughters to private school if they want them to wear hijab," the group stated.

Harpswell mulls challenge to new federal flood map
HARPSWELL — The town may appeal new flood mapping by the Federal Emergency Management Agency that some people believe could impede land development or increase residential insurance costs.
FEMA's remapping follows a congressional mandate to reassess the 100-year floodplain for coastal areas. But the agency's effort is being met with resistance in communities where wider flood areas could lead to construction restrictions and force owners of existing residences and businesses to purchase costly flood insurance.
Earlier this month, Kennebunk and Kennebunkport residents hired a consultant to question the validity of the new flood models. South Portland, Cape Elizabeth and Falmouth have embarked on a similar effort. Portland, meanwhile, is hoping an engineering analysis by the city will convince FEMA to reconsider a flood designation that could stymie waterfront development.
In each instance, communities hired a consultant to challenge FEMA's mapping model. Harpswell may launch a similar effort, pending a decision by the Board of Selectmen and voter approval either at Town Meeting.
On Dec. 17 the Board of Selectmen heard a proposal from Bob Gerber of Sebago Technics, who projected a review of FEMA's preliminary mapping models would cost the town between $5,000 and about $17,500, depending on the depth of the study.
Gerber said his firm has already been hired by Falmouth, Cape Elizabeth and South Portland.
Gerber said municipalities have 90 days to challenge the new floodplain from the time FEMA enacts the new maps. After that, property owners will have to appeal individually.
The timing of FEMA's enactment is important because Harpswell requires voter approval for any expenditures.
The earliest FEMA can adopt the new floodplain is Jan. 1, 2010. Although Town Meeting, scheduled for March 13, would fall within the 90-day comment period, Gerber told selectmen he would need 45 days to complete the analysis.
Town Administrator Kristi Eiane told selectmen the town could schedule a special Town Meeting to hire Sebago Technics.
The issue has generated significant concern locally. Town staff gave selectmen copies of letters from residents appealing to FEMA to revise its flood models. Some argued that their properties had existed for decades without flood damage.
In a Nov. 19 letter to FEMA, Robert and Marolyn Bibber said their residence is 15 feet above the high-tide mark. The couple said FEMA's new flood mapping would elevate the plain to 25 feet above high tide. The Bibbers argued the change was unnecessary because their home is in an island-pocked bay and less susceptible to storm surge.
"Maine is not like the Outer Banks of (North Carolina)," the couple wrote. "We are in colder water making hurricanes harder to reach us. We are in a bay, not in the open ocean. Waves would have to go over 70-foot to 100-foot islands to reach us, then turn a corner."
Dr. Nelson Burton, of Cundy's Harbor, wrote that FEMA's new floodplain would change on his property from 12 feet to between 25 and 31 feet, thus requiring Burton to purchase flood insurance.
"There are far reaching consequences to such changes proposed by FEMA," Burton wrote. "Many Harpswell residents earn their living from the sea and therefore own waterfront homes, and it would be a shame if they were burdened with unnecessary expensive flood insurance."
Ronald and Marie Christensen, of Brunswick, said FEMA's new designation would limit their ability to build or rebuild on their their property off Route 123.
Gerber said the proposed floodplain could also hamper a $1.3 million renovation project at Dolphin Marina on Harpswell Neck.
"The new map puts them in a new zone that pretty much prevents them from doing anything," Gerber said.
FEMA's mapping effort has drawn attention from the state's congressional delegation. Rep. Chellie Pingree, D-Maine, along with Republican Sens. Susan Collins and Olympia Snowe wrote to FEMA urging the agency to reconsider the state map, which they said, is based on inaccurate data.
In October, Pingree told the Maine Public Broadcasting Network that the impact on the state's southern coast would be "devastating."
It's unclear how many properties would be affected in Harpswell. However, given the town's more than 200 miles of coastline, the effect could be widespread.
The Board of Selectmen will vote Jan. 7 on whether to ask residents to pay for the analysis to dispute the FEMA flood projections.

Pre-tournament favourite Rory McIlroy recovered from a stumbling start to overcome a series of challengers and clinch his fourth major title by a shot at the PGA Championship on Sunday.
A stroke in front of the chasing pack overnight, the Northern Irish world number one lost the lead but regained control after the turn, signing off with a three-under-par 68 at Valhalla Golf Club for a 16-under total of 268.
Phil Mickelson, the 2005 winner, birdied 18 to finish alone in second with a closing 66, with Swede Henrik Stenson (66) and American Rickie Fowler (68) a stroke further back in third.
"I didn't think in my wildest dreams I'd have a summer like this," British Open champion McIlroy told CBS Sports after being presented with the coveted Wanamaker Trophy, which he hoisted high in celebration.
"I've just played the best golf of my life and just really gutted it out today. It was a little different from the previous major wins that I've had and I think I showed a lot of guts out there today to get this job done."
Trailing by three at one point, McIlroy got within a stroke of the lead with a spectacular eagle at the par-five 10th where he hit his second shot from 281 yards to seven feet, before effectively sealing the title with birdies at the 13th and 17th.
In gathering gloom at Valhalla, where play was suspended for just under two hours earlier in the day due to water-logged conditions, McIlroy parred the last to win his third consecutive title on the PGA Tour, and his second major this year.
The 25-year-old, who won the 2012 PGA Championship at Kiawah by a record eight shots, became the fourth youngest player to land four majors, with only Tom Morris Jr., Jack Nicklaus and Tiger Woods ahead of him.
Mickelson, who had been bidding for a sixth major title, recorded his first top-10 finish on the 2013-14 PGA Tour after a disappointing season.
"It was good for me to get back in the mix and to feel the pressure and get in the thick of it," said the American left-hander. "I kind of ran out of steam there after 12, wasn't able to get a couple of birdies coming in like I needed to."
With birdies abundant on a receptive, rain-softened layout, the galleries were treated to a breathtaking display of shot-making in the final round.
However, the late starters faced a race against darkness in their bid to finish the 96th PGA Championship on Sunday.
Play was halted just before noon as heavy rain swept across the par-71 Valhalla layout, leaving rivers of water on several fairways and pools covering many greens.

Volleyball Nets Rowlett High School's Lauren Hawkins for 2011
Nov. 10, 2010
MEMPHIS, Tenn. - The University of Memphis volleyball program kicked off the early signing period by inking Rowlett High School standout Lauren Hawkins to a National Letter of Intent Memphis head coach April Jauregui announced today.
"Lauren (Hawkins) is a great kid with a solid work ethic and a desire to be the best she can be," said Jauregui. "That to me was one of the main factors in adding her to our program. It also doesn't hurt that she is 6-2 and has a heavy arm swing. I am uncertain at this point the position Lauren will fill. That is a positive since she can swing from all 3 positions on the court. Her strength lies in hitting fast attack options and she is a good slide attacker. I am excited for her to join our team and begin training. I feel there are a lot of things she can immediately add to our program."
A middle blocker/right side hitter, Hawkins has put together a decorated prep career at RHS. A four-time All-District 10-5A selection, Hawkins helped guide the Lady Eagles to District 10-5A crowns in 2007 and 2008.

On behalf of the International Society for Horticultural Science (ISHS), the Department of Agricultural and Food Science of University of Catania is pleased to invite scientists, professionals and business representatives with an interest in Brassicas to attend the ISHS Brassica 2012 Symposium.
Brassicas are widely grown around the world for many uses, as popular vegetable crops, oil production, and fodder, and their use is increasingly expanding to novel applications including nutraceutical, bioenergy, and biofumigation, among other uses.
There has been an increased interest in several species belonging to the Brassicaceae family and many researchers around the world are now exploiting Brassica genome information for crop development and improvement. The growth of genetic and genomic resources is supporting the improvement and diversification of traditional Brassica crops, with applications for specific traits as well as exploiting new species that can be introduced as novel crops.
The world economic crisis require new solutions for building up a sustainable new economy and in this sense brassicas could offer several options for processing and produce innovation by its large diversity. When I accepted to organize the ISHS Brassica 2012 Symposium I was sure Sicily would have been a great location to invite researchers involved in brassicas to discuss how to exploit the great diversity found around the world in general and in our islands in particular. The Brassicaceae diversity expressed in Sicily has recently interested researchers because it represents an important area of domestication in the Mediterranean region expressing a crucial primary gene pool.
I cordially invite all researchers dedicated to the exploitation of Brassicaceae genetic diversity to improve agricultural chains to actively attend the 6th International Symposium on Brassica and 18th Crucifer Genetic Workshop that will be held in Catania (Sicily) from 12nd to 16th of November 2012.
The historical, naturalistic, social and gastronomic aspects of Sicily will provide an interesting backdrop for discussions and debate towards individuating, delineating and consolidating new research directions for future agriculture innovation.
You are sincerely welcome and we look forward to your participation.
Ferdinando Branca
The convener

Yep, you will be able to see all the images of this beautiful young black teen on the website, by simply clicking on the images. All of them lead to the same area, and that area has thousands of pictures with such beautiful amateur girls. They are usually regular next door type girls, who never thought they gonna be on a porn website. But then, they decided that they have really beautiful bodies and wanna take some pictures. After they do that, well, it's already to late. At some point their devices will get hacked for sure, and someone will post the pictures online anyway. So a lesson for girl – never make a nude photoshoot of yourself. You will get caught eventually
For more girls like that, click here!
So there is a collection of ebony chicks that you are looking for. If you wanna get constant updates, beautiful girls and some really cute young black teens, simply obtain the password. It's only one dollar, and will give you many joys while you're there. You will shoot lot's of sperm, that I can promise to you, lol! Amazing how many girls are posing naked at home, and even more amazing that lot's of those pictures hits the internet.. But hey, you can find everything on internet anyway, right?
That girl in the bathroom is really sexy. I mean, just look at the size of her boobs. She looks amazing, and she needs to be praised. Look at the curves of her body.. She is slim, slick, sexy, busty and even more! Her face is so cute, I wonder if she is willing to fuck with her boyfriend every day, o just every other day? We could ask her, if we had her phone or facebook account, but sadly we don't even know her name. Let's call her Tanya, ok? Tanya is really beautiful! She is young, sexy.. and oh my good , look at those boobs. You need to see more, click on the picture!
Let's think where we could get more black teen girls. We could google again, and look for some videos or images there. The problem with google image search, there are thousands of viruses and malware. I can say, every other image will try to inject your computer with some kind of spyware. You better avoid it. Better go for the paysites, where you have to pay for the young black teens photos, but then you are hundred percent sure that there will be no viruses, and no harm to your computer or your data! simply click on the pics and start registration process..
Look at that ass again, bro.. (on the bottom pic). That girl looks like she is ready for sex, and for some long dick penetration! If you think you can start fucking her right away, well, close your eyes, take your dick and pretend that you are fucking her, while actually you are masturbating! I know you can do lot's of stuff regarding young black teens, and let it be one of those things, lol. Hopefully you will find some girl that will masturbate the dick for you..

Porsche Cayman Turbo to pack 350+ HP - report
Could debut in Frankfurt
Porsche just took the wraps off the redesigned Cayman, but that hasn't stopped rumors of an upcoming Turbo variant.
Slated to debut at the 2013 Frankfurt Motor Show, the Cayman Turbo will reportedly usher in the company's four-cylinder engine. Said to displace 2.5-liters, the turbocharged boxer unit will reportedly have an output in excess of 350 HP (257 kW) and 500 Nm (369 lb-ft) of torque - 25 HP (18 kW) and 130 Nm (96 lb-ft) more than the Cayman S. The engine could be connected exclusively to a PDK transmission, so expect the car to accelerate from 0-100 km/h in less than 4.9 seconds.
The engine could eventually be offered in the Boxster and 911, but nothing is official as of yet.

I already said it 2 weeks ago (Check the post about Cayman Launch), 2.5L turbo from TT-RS is going into the Cayman!

I don't think the cayman needs a turbo... The 3.8l 400hp from the new carreraS should be enought... if not, even the GT3 450hp could be even cooler than a turbo if you're so hungry for power :)
Dec 3, 2012 7:13 pm
But those are much thirstier than a little 4-pot would be. Plus a turbo car can be modified up past 400bhp more easily ;-)
Dec 3, 2012 8:56 pm
Joao Oliveira
This is suposed to be the top model, not a 4 cylinder eco model... This is the 911 turbo of the Cayman, and the 911 turbo isn't more fuel efficient than the Carrera
Dec 4, 2012 4:21 pm
OK then, how about saving weight for better cornering? A smaller, more compact engine would be better for that.
Dec 4, 2012 5:53 pm
If the engine is dropped in 911, will there be a Carrera Turbo and a 911 Turbo? confused......
Dec 3, 2012 3:14 pm
Why are you? The 2.5 turbo would never see fit in the 911, maybe the cayman and the boxster, but never the 911
Dec 3, 2012 5:15 pm
It won't go into the 911 because the 911 will always have 6 cylinders.
Dec 3, 2012 5:35 pm
I don't see them putting it into a 912 either, especially since there are now "affordable" Porsches.
Dec 4, 2012 1:19 am
Won't happen. The new 4 cylinder 2.5 will come to the facelift of the cayman in late 2015 as a replacment of the 2.7 and as a RS.
Dec 3, 2012 2:24 pm

Hey! Who decided to drop an Impreza engine in the cayman?

Kefalonia Holidays
Kefalonia Holidays – Mellow with the mandolin wind
Brought to international attention by Louis de Bernieres' novel Captain Corelli's Mandolin and the ensuing Hollywood film, Kefalonia is a beautiful laid-back place with a number of stunning beaches. Being the largest Ionian island, it also offers a good deal of variety and has the region's highest peak, Mount Enos, as well as a genuine working capital in Argostoli.
Perfect for family holidays, with its southern beaches such as at Skala and those near Lassi shelving gradually into the sea and thus being safe for kids, Kefalonia also offers a wide range of watersports, fine mountain walks, excellent restaurants and a smattering of culture.
When to go to Kefalonia
You can visit Kefalonia any time, even during the mildish winters, but you will find very few places open between late October and mid-April, apart from in Argostoli. Try to avoid the peak summer season of late July to late August, when both prices and temperatures soar. Easter is an atmospheric time of colourful processions and in the early summer spring flowers adorn the mountains and meadows, while the sea remains warm through September till at least mid-October.
The weather in Kefalonia
Kefalonia enjoys a standard sunny Mediterranean climate, meaning that daytime temperatures can reach 35ºC in July and August and 30ºC anytime from April to October. Fortunately, the hottest months are tempered by the brisk Maestro winds. Night time temperatures are in the 15–25ºC range during the summer and rarely fall below 8ºC, even in midwinter.
The Ionian Islands see more precipitation than most of the Greek Islands, especially during the winter months, though occasional showers can occur even in high summer. Still, with up to 13 hours average daily sunshine, you can rely on getting a tan.
Getting the best deal to Kefalonia
Despite the Captain Corelli boom, tourism still doesn't entirely dominate Kefalonia, so you can find good deals on accommodation even at relatively short notice, except during the peak season of late July to late August. Most package holidays are based in Lassi or Skala, while villas and apartments can be rented all over the island, the most upmarket being around Fiskardo.
The best flight deals to Kefalonia are to be had outside the UK school holidays but in winter you have to go via Athens. Look for our current best deals and last-minute offers. If you are looking to book early, take advantage of our low deposit scheme.
Airport and transport need to know
Kefalonia airport (EFL) has no bus service so you will have to get a taxi into Argostoli (€12/£9.50), from where the reliable if infrequent island bus service connects to all the major resorts. A taxi for up to four people direct from the airport costs around €40 (£32) to Skala and €50 (£40) to Fiskardo. Lassi is only about a €10 (£8) taxi ride from the airport and also has far more frequent bus connections to Argostoli.
Renting a car is a good idea if you want to see much of the island. You can reserve a vehicle at Kefalonia airport online with one of the multi-national rental agencies from around €25 (£20), depending on the time of year. In low season especially, you can get better deals from local agencies such as CBR (www.cbr-rentacar.com).
From April to October, Kefalonia has direct scheduled flights with easyJet from Gatwick and charters from Birmingham, Bristol, Cardiff, Manchester and Newcastle, as well as London airports. Scheduled flights via Athens operate all year.
The best beaches on Kefalonia
Kefalonia has the best selection of beaches of all the Ionian Islands. The most visually stunning ones are to be found on the west coast, where long stretches of mostly pebble and shingle strands nestle below steep cliffs, while milky turquoise waters blend into the deeper azure offshore. Those to the south and east are less spectacular but offer gentler swimming.
The two outstanding beaches on the west side are Petani, on the far side of the Lixouri (or Palliki) Peninsula, which has a couple of tavernas and some accommodation, and the oft-photographed Myrtos further north. The latter has several seasonal canteens but no rooms at beach level.
Of the south coast beaches, which are more suitable for children as they are sandier and shallower, the best are at Skala, also a busy package resort, Lourdata, which has a range of places to stay and eat, and Trapezaki, where there is only one taverna and much more chance of getting away from the crowds.
The pick of the eastern strands are at the port town of Sami, one of the largest settlements outside Argostoli, and nearby Andisamos, a splendid horseshoe bay where much of the Corelli film was shot.

The immediate goals of treating a dog with severe breathing difficulty as a result of brachycephalic airway syndrome (BAS) are to remove the upper airway obstruction and restore a patent airway. This can be done by intubating the dog and placing it under general anesthesia, with oxygen and anesthetic gas being provided mechanically to the animal through the endotracheal tube. An open airway can also be established through a surgical procedure called a tracheostomy. This involves creating an opening directing into the trachea through the neck and inserting a tube to facilitate the free flow of air. Tracheostomies can be performed on an elective or emergency basis. Another goal of treating a dog in extreme respiratory distress due to BAS is to reduce the animal's stress, anxiety and discomfort, which in turn will help minimize the risk of adverse secondary complications. The long term therapeutic goal is to remove the tissues or structures that are causing the airway obstruction through surgery.
The narrowed nostrils (stenotic nares) associated with BAS can be widened or opened surgically, either using a traditional surgical scalpel or using the more recently developed carbon dioxide laser. Basically, both of these techniques involve surgically sculpting the nasal openings to allow the free flow of air as a dog breathes in and out. An elongated soft palate can be shortened surgically as well, using either a traditional scalpel or a CO2 laser. Everted laryngeal saccules can be removed with a scalpel, a laser or scissors. Unfortunately, there is no reported surgical procedure or technique to correct an underdeveloped trachea or laryngeal collapse, both of which are often present in brachycephalic breeds.
Dogs with BAS should be kept fit and trim. Obese brachycephalic dogs usually suffer much more serious respiratory difficulties than do dogs kept in a good, normal weight. Because hot, humid environments exacerbate this condition, dogs with BAS should be kept out of areas with high ambient temperatures. They also should be kept as stress-free as possible.
Dogs that undergo successful surgical correction of stenotic nares and/or elongated soft palates at an early age typically have a good to excellent long-term prognosis, especially if they do not also have a hypoplastic trachea or secondary complications such as everted laryngeal saccules or laryngeal collapse. If the dog has an underdeveloped trachea, or if it develops secondary complications of BAS, it has a variable prognosis, ranging from poor to good depending upon the nature and extent of those conditions and the amount of upper airway obstruction that they cause. When a brachecephalic dog develops severe and acute breathing difficulties, the situation can rapidly become life-threatening. If that happens, the outlook is guarded. However, the dog may recover fully if medical treatment is sought and administered promptly to reestablish an open airway.

Original Post:
Everyone's stat weights and EP are different, and depend on their gear - why do you think anyone is interested in your musings about yours in particular? Also, why would anyone possibly care what life would be like without the 5% INT bonus? It exists, so we do all of our calculations with it. Are you certain that the stat weights that were calculated for you didn't already take the Wizardry bonus into account? (Hint: I doubt it.)
Don't forget that mages get +5% Int, and only Int, making an Int/secondary hybrid still a little better than a straight secondary (unless you really need the hit/expertise to reach hit cap).
Actually Crit sims to me for normalized 0.51.
Without those 5% id prefer flat Crit gems. Taking the Int from Wizardry into account, Id prefer flat secondary from 0.525 on.
So the value of a Potent Vermilion Onyx for me is 80 x 1.05 (wizardry) + 160 x 0.51 = 165.6
A Brilliant Primordial Ruby would net 160 x 1.05 = 168 for my current gear.
Unlike previous expansions, in MoP it appears that the best DPS outcome is to gem with hybrids in all sockets, as the secondary stats on gems are now double that of primary stats. Another option is to gem straight secondary stats, especially as your gear gets better, given that the value of crit increases as gear gets better. It is strongly recommended that you run your own sims to determine the best gemming options for your gear.
Seeing this I'd prefer pure Int.
Unless my thoughts werent totally wrong, it might be worth mentioning, that gemming pure Int is better up to a special point.

Khartoum — The spokesman of the Sudanese Armed Forces (SAF) denied the presence of Mali militants in Darfur, despite multiple eyewitnesses having confirmed their presence across the region this week to Radio Dabanga.
Various sources, including some Darfur rebel groups, allege that armed Islamic groups coming from Mali were seen in different parts of Darfur, particularly in Kutum, North Darfur.
Onlookers told Radio Dabanga that some of these militants have "long beards, wear outfits resembling those found in Western Sahara and black shawls". They added that a number of them speak French and most do not speak Arabic.
Colonel Sawarmi Khaled Saad told SUNA news agency on Wednesday that an undetermined number of South Sudan-based rebels had entered South Darfur. However, he affirmed "these forces have nothing to do with the claims from the Darfur movements".
According to him the central government ordered South Darfur security authorities to destroy the rebel forces, but he did not provide any further details about it.
"Formed by government"
Dr. Jibril Ibrahim, head of the Justice and Equality Movement (JEM), ridiculed the statements made by the colonel during an interview with Radio Dabanga.
Ibrahim, who is also vice-president of the Sudan Revolutionary Front (SRF), added Saad's main task is denying facts and stressed that these Islamic groups coming from Mali were initiated by the Sudanese government.
"The Khartoum regime released some prisoners from jail, gave them weapons, cars, equipment and sent them to fight in Libya under Gadaffi", he claimed.
Next, these militants went to Mali and are now coming back to Darfur bringing comrades along, Ibrahim was quoted as saying.
He said all of these militants were formed and educated by the Sudanese government and that their current locations are "very well known".
"Terrorism hotbed"
The accusations of some Western countries and of the international community that Sudan is collapsing and that it will become a sponsor and hotbed for terrorism are "completely untrue", Ibrahim said.
He urged the West to understand that the Sudanese regime is actually the terrorist, considering it is "building and exporting" such activities and providing it a breeding ground to further expand.
Sudan is the center of terrorism in east Africa, JEM's chief continued, "a connection between west and east [Africa]".
If the international community wants to solve the problem of terrorism, it must then help overthrow the regime of Khartoum he suggested. "If this does not happen, the world will regret", he warned.

Analysis: 3 Areas DoD Can Target for Cost-Cutting
January 20, 2012
The Defense Department is inching closer to a second round of spending cuts — up to $500 billion over ten years. Unless Congress comes up with another plan to avoid the automatic, across-the-board cuts (also called sequestration), DoD would start feeling the pinch in next year's budget.
Travis Sharp, a defense analyst at the Center for a New American Security, outlines three main areas where DoD could make cuts:
- Combat capabilities
- Personnel pay and benefits
- DoD business practices

For the interior, luck would drop a very interesting gift into their laps. A month or two after purchasing the car, Deacon and Richard were at a large swap meet and spied a pair of Recaro buckets for sale. They were being sold by a company that dealt with GM interiors. While looking at the seats, a matching rear seat that would fit the Nova was spied, and the whole package was purchased. According to Deacon, the seats had come out of a Pontiac concept car and were never used. A custom fiberglass center console was built and painted to match, and a set of Speed Hut Revolution gauges were installed to keep tabs on the LS1 and let the driver know how bad the next speeding ticket would be. Jim's Upholstery took care of installing a fresh convertible top.
Once finished, both Deacon knew his car could never be a daily driver-it was just too nice. So, instead the car gets driven regularly on weekends, for pleasure cruises, and to car shows where it never leaves the watchful eyes of father or son.
Through the build, many people helped out with build, including Frank Moe, who volunteered his lathe and milling machine for parts fabrication, Mark Ogden, who helped a ton with a lot of the fabrication and design of the custom parts on the car, and Wes Neely who sprayed the Nova's fantastic paint.

Mogadishu — At least five soldiers were killed and nine other people wounded in a battle among Somali government forces in the capital Mogadishu, Radio Garowe reports Sunday.
The fighting erupted at a checkpoint in the southern outskirts of Mogadishu, where a group of government forces attacked another group manning the checkpoint.
The checkpoint soldiers stopped a convoy of aid trucks and were reportedly demanding extortion money when a second group of soldiers attacked them, witnesses said.
" I saw five dead soldiers and many more wounded, " said a witness, who stated that the fighting erupted after a group of soldiers launched an "organized attack " on other soldiers manning the checkpoint.
Somali police officials have refused to speak publicly about the battle, which lasted for nearly two hours and wounded nine people, mostly soldiers, according to sources at Medina Hospital.
Separately, Justice Minister Sheikh Abdirahman Janakow survived a bomb blast when a roadside bomb missed his vehicle.
Witnesses said the minister was not hurt and the vehicle did not sustain any damage.
Meanwhile, hundreds of people protested along the road between Mogadishu and Afgoye, a district 30km south of the capital. The protestors, who fled the violence in Mogadishu to makeshift camps in surrounding regions, asked for international assistance as they lack daily needs like food and water.
Most of the protestors were women and children, according to witnesses.
Somalia's interim government is weak and controls pockets of Mogadishu, with Islamist hardliners controlling most regions in the southern and central part of the Somalia.
The ongoing insurgency in south-central Somalia, especially in Mogadishu, has killed upwards of 18,000 people and displaced hundreds of thousands of civilians from their homes.

Watch Carly Rae Jepsen Perform Acoustic 'Curiosity'
Posted: February 21, 2013
While in Tokyo recently, Carly Rae Jepsen tabbed guitarists Tavish Crowe and Jared Manierka to play a stripped-down version of the song "Curiosity" for Billboard.
The title track from her 2012 EP is typically an upbeat dance track, but this acoustic version quiets things down considerably. With an impressive skyline in the background, the trio certainly picked a picturesque place to film.
Watch the clip after the jump and check out Jepsen's official website for more information. (more…)

Sell used phone to enjoy "new era for mobile communications"
21 June 2010 — 11:53 AM
Consumers who sell their used mobile phone for cash could be at the front of the queue to snap up a device with technology that signals a "new era for mobile communications".
Orange is to trial its high-definition Voice programme on handsets across the south of England, enabling customers to enjoy crystal-clear sounds when using their phone.
If successful, the trial will be made permanent and could trigger a raft of new subscriptions to the Orange network, with those seeking the highest-quality calls signing up to the provider.
Tom Alexander, chief executive of Everything Everywhere, which runs Orange, says: "The trial of mobile HD Voice is a significant milestone in the new companys goal of delivering the best service in the industry."
The network believes its technology will help mobile phone users take part in calls that sound as if both participants are in the same room.
One handset people could choose to enjoy Voice on is the iPhone 4, which is to be stocked by Orange when it is released this week.

A surprise package
Some of the most interesting things happen in our beautiful wildlife gardens when we least expect them. On this particular day my brother and mom were moving some bricks to build a new flower bed. My mom found this odd-looking thing filling the gap between two bricks. On closer inspection we realized it was made from pieces of clover leaves wrapped together. Well, we can't resist a mystery so we took it into the house and gently removed the leaves one at a time to see what they were concealing.
A micro nursery
Once we peeled away the outside layer we discovered several individual chambers stacked end-to-end. Each one contained a layer of pollen pressed tightly on the bottom with a single egg poking out the top. Obviously we were dealing with some sort of bee. Research showed that we had discovered the nest of a leaf-cutter bee, and that the pollen is mixed with nectar by the momma bee to make the food supply for the developing larvae. It's amazing that each perfect little cell is made solely from circular bits of leaves.
A few days later the egg in each chamber hatched and the larvae emerged.
Each of the "bee babies" had plenty of food to eat and reached maturity with some pollen mush left over. It's hard to believe by looking at them in this stage of development that they will soon become bees.
It was amazing to watch their transformation. The eyes were the first features to become noticeable.
The legs and antennae were next to take shape.
And the wings were the last features to form.
The resulting bee is so tiny!
Mystery solved
For years I have wondered what sort of creature was making these round cut-outs in my plants. I've never once caught them in the act. But at least I know whenever I see these tell-tale signs, my yard is supporting the life cycle of such an important pollinator as the amazing leaf-cutter bee.

There are two common implementations of the API. The original implementation depends on Java Virtual Machine (JVM) class representation mechanisms and it thus only supports making calls from one JVM to another. The protocol underlying this Java-only implementation is known as Java Remote Method Protocol (JRMP). In order to support code running in a non-JVM context, a CORBA version was later developed. Usage of the term RMI may denote solely the programming interface or may signify both the API and JRMP, whereas the term RMI-IIOP, read RMI over IIOP, denotes the RMI interface delegating most of the functionality to the supporting CORBA implementation.
The original RMI API was generalized somewhat to support different implementations, such as an HTTP transport. Additionally, work was done to CORBA, adding a pass by value capability, to support the RMI interface. Still, the RMI-IIOP and JRMP implementations are not fully identical in their interfaces.
The package name is while most of Sun's implementation is located in the
sun.rmi package. Note that with Java versions before Java 5.0 it was necessary to compile RMI stubs in a separate compilation step using
rmic. Version 5.0 of Java and beyond no longer require this step.
A more advanced version of RMI in Java is Jini - it is similar but provides more advanced searching capabilities and mechanisms for distributed object applications .
