36 year old woman | Saint Albans, NY, USA | Seeking men 30-40 within 25 miles of Jamaica, NY
Hello, I am seeking a friendship that has the potential of becoming a long term, committed relationship.
If I am treated like a Queen then you will be treated like a King. Describing myself is complex because I am a healthy balance of modern and old-fashioned woman, I am tender, affectionate and Hardcore, lady and tomboy. Similar to a lion I am laid back having fun and when there are things to be done I get up and do it. I am mostly quiet and easy going, I don't bring drama or start fights/negative arguments however, I am not easily intimidated, I will speak my mind and deal with things appropriately. I have zero-tolerance for any short of abuse. I'm somewhat aggressive at times, fully independent, and confident without being obnoxious. My friends would say that I am sweet as brown sugar and down to earth. I love to draw and paint the human figure and I also enjoy photographing anything that interests me. Traveling to interesting places like Brazil and sampling different foods and shopping for that unique item are some of the things I love to do. The feature that captures my attention is his wisdom, stature, style and smile. I have no problem meeting men; however, I have not found the one yet. I am seeking a friendship that has the potential of becoming a long term, committed relationship. I believe that friendship first makes the best relationship. I want an affectionate, thoughtful, creative, honest, completely single, TALL MAN with a healthy mind and body that has the wisdom to understand me. I love when my man pays close attention to me and my desires. I enjoy a great sense of humor because I love to laugh and have a good time. However, he must know that there is a time and place for everything, and when the rules can be broken. In our free time, my ideal match and I would always find a way to have fun. Do you think you are the one? If so make it clear in an e-mail and if not happy hunting.

DEARBORN, Mich., Jan. 24, 2012 /PRNewswire/ -- Validation & Compliance Institute (VCI) announces a solution to the problem that all small Pharmaceutical, Medical Device, and Food companies are struggling with:
How can we prove to FDA that we have trained our employees, without breaking the bank?
Experts have found that the first step in driving behavior is to train and then test for knowledge retention. That way there are no excuses. Big companies have staff to accomplish this
But we are a small company. How can we afford to develop and maintain this capability?
Our answer is VCI's E-Learning Curriculum. It gives employees of smaller companies the same world class GMP training as the big companies, but at an affordable price.
What is VCI's E-Learning Curriculum? The product is a series of on-line GMP training courses that teaches employees of the Food, Pharma, and Medical Device industries how to comply with FDA regulations.
How can I access this training? The training is available to single users or companies on the VCI website at www.vcillc.com/e-learning.html. Class is in session whenever you're ready. It is available anywhere the internet is accessible.
Here's what one of our clients had to say. SIMCO Electronics' clients manufacture medical devices, drugs, food, and dietary supplements. SIMCO needed to make sure that its employees stayed current on the regulations that are required by the US Food and Drug Administration (FDA).
"VCI's E-Learning course, 'Calibration for FDA Regulated Industries' is ideal for our employees," said Lon Williams, Director of Corporate Quality at SIMC

Read/Write Splitting
The MySQL Replication allows to scale out read-load.
To use it nicely your application has to be aware of reading data from slaves and writing data to the master. Read/Write splitting wants to automate that process inside the MySQL Proxy.
- http://jan.kneschke.de/projects/mysql/mysql-proxy-learns-r-w-splitting
- http://jan.kneschke.de/projects/mysql/mysql-proxy-more-r-w-splitting
a Proof of Concept of that idea is presented.
There are a few problems left before that feature is in a acceptable state:
Connection State
Up to now the example script only knows about:
- transactions go to the master
- auto-increment INSERTs will wait for the next SELECT INSERT_ID()
- SELECT SQL_CALC_FOUND_ROWS will wait for the next SELECT FOUND_ROWS()
Currently most of the other commands that change the connection state are ignored.
- SET NAMES utf8
- SET @a = 1; SELECT @a;
- Stored Procedures
The rw-splitting.lua script has to be extended to track those statements and either:
- replicate the state to the new connection (SET NAMES utf8)
- don't switch the connection
Connection Pool
The MySQL Proxy maintains a connection pool if the scripting layer disconnects the backend from the client connection:
proxy.connection.backend_ndx = 0
The backend connection can be taken from the pool by other client connections afterwards.
For the R/W-Splitting you need 2 open connections for each client connection:
- one to the master
- one to the slave
As the authentication protocol never transmits the real password nor anything we can use to authenticate against another server, we need a internal storage of credentials to open connections to the backend-servers when we are short of connections in the pool.
That's currently missing.
Yes, we know that RW-Splitting is not for production use yet, it is a Proof of Concept. To keep track of the known issues:

The East-Kilbride based firm said it will recruit an additional 20 workers in coming months expanding the workforce to 60 employees, from 40.
The company has been awarded around £120,000 official funding under the Regional Selective Assistance programme towards the costs of a £750,000 investment in facilities and staffing.
Managing director Paul Davidson said it has been enjoying strong growth in business.
He said: "Every month it just gets better and better."
Demand from Scotch whisky makers has remained very strong and does not seem to have been affected by the clamp down on gift giving in China.
Glencairn supplies engraved bottles and decanters in which whisky firms can sell premium brands.
Mr Davidson said demand from makers of other drinks, including rum and port, is also strong as the company benefits from the broader economic recovery.
Mr Davidson said the corporate gift market is coming back. The tourist sector is also very good.
Glencairn Crystal grew sales to above £5m in the year to 30 April 2013, from £4.5m in the preceding year. It recorded a retained profit of £337,880.

Moong Dal
|Moong dal
|1 1⁄2 Cup (24 tbs), hulled and split
|2 Clove (10 gm), peeled
|Peeled ginger slices
|2 (1 Inch Square And 1/8 Inch Thick)
|Chopped chinese parsley
|1 Tablespoon (Coriander Greens Or Cilantro)
|Ground turmeric
|1 Tablespoon
|Cayenne pepper
|1⁄2 Teaspoon
|1 1⁄2 Teaspoon
|Lemon juice
|1 1⁄2 Tablespoon
|Vegetable oil/Pure ghee
|3 Tablespoon
|Asafoetida powder/Tiny lump asafetida
|1 Pinch
|Whole cumin seeds
|1 Teaspoon
Clean and wash dal thoroughly.
Put dal in heavy-bottomed 3-4-quart pot, add 5 cups water, and bring to a boil.
Remove the froth and scum that collects at the top.
Now add the garlic, ginger, parsley, turmeric, and cayenne pepper.
Cover, leaving the lid very slightly ajar, lower heat, and simmer gently for about 1 1/2 hours.
Stir occasionally.
When dal is cooked, add the salt and lemon juice (it should be thicker than pea soup, but thinner than cooked cereal).
In a 4-6-inch skillet or small pot, heat the vegetable oil or ghee over a medium-high flame.
When hot, add the asafetida and cumin seeds.
As soon as the asafetida sizzles and expands and the cumin seeds turn dark (this will take only a few seconds), pour the oil and spices over the dal and serve.
(Some people put the dal in a serving dish and then pour the oil and spices over it.) To serve: Serve with plain rice, Kheema, and a vegetable for a simple meal.
Most meat and chicken dishes go well with this dal.
Since some people like to squeeze extra lemon or lime juice on their dal.

YIELD: Makes about 36 cookies
In a bowl cream together the shortening, the peanut butter, and the brown sugar, beating until the mixture is light and fluffy, beat in the egg, and stir in the flour, the baking soda, and the salt. Form tablespoonfuls of the dough into balls, transfer the balls as they are formed to baking sheets, and with the tines of a fork flatten them, making a crosshatch pattern. Bake the cookies in batches in the middle of a preheated 400°F. oven for 8 to 10 minutes, or until they are golden, transfer them to racks, and let them cool completely.

"We also experienced a strong quarter with respect to new center development, as we added eight HeartMate II centers globally, including six in the U.S. and two internationally. As of the end of the third quarter, we had 280 HeartMate II centers worldwide, including 141 in the U.S. and 139 internationally, versus a total of 254 at the end of fiscal 2010," he added.
"Our continued growth is being facilitated by our market development and clinical education programs. In addition, the ongoing flow of data is demonstrating compelling long-term outcomes in HeartMate II patients, including data published recently in leading peer-reviewed journals," he said.
One of the recent data publications, which appeared in the October edition of The Annals of Thoracic Surgery, compared outcomes from nearly 1,500 commercial bridge-to-transplantation (BTT) HeartMate II patients with those of nearly 500 patients who participated in the HeartMate II BTT clinical trial. The findings included Kaplan-Meier survival of 89 percent at six months and 85 percent at one year for commercial patients. In addition, commercial patients experienced declines in most adverse events versus patients in the trial, with catastrophic events such as device replacement and stroke occurring in just one percent and six percent of patients, respectively. "This dataset demonstrates excellent and improving outcomes for HeartMate II patients in a real-world setting among a broad range of implanting centers," Burbach noted.
Burbach also commented on the company's acute surgical support franchise, including the acquisition of the Levitronix Medical business during the third quarter. The acquired business remains on track to add approximately $4.0 million of incremental product sales in 2011, including CentriMag® outside the U.S. an

. Especially in regards to what it is that Kirk wants most from life/death/retirement. That one seems to change from scene to scene. Knowing Kirk it sure as hell ain't making eggs in a log cabin.
Oh come on, "Generations" conveys it's message just fine. To paraphrase;
Everything comes to an end, don't dwell on it and enjoy the hand you're dealt while you've got it.
It's not some obscure hidden meaning, it's blatantly spelled out for the less astute of us at the end of the movie. Even 12 year old me could decipher that when I first saw it.
Within the context of the movie nobody cares about Kirk. He's not the protagonist, and Star Trek fans can't seem to get past that. The movie is about Picard, Kirk was only present to act as the wise old sage who can help Picard learn his lesson of the day.
There are real criticisms to be leveled at Generations, but that's not one of them.

31 year old man | Wall Street, NY, USA | Seeking women 23-31 within 15 miles of New York, NY
I got kicked off jdate because my gardener's name is Jesus.
My perfect match would be educated, physically fit, family and goal oriented, does not say "like" as every other word, genuine, funny, loves to dance and has a great sense of style, into sports (GO GIANTS, KNICKS, and METS) sarcastic, flirtacious, spontaneous, driven, does not drive along with a UHUAL of emotional baggage (check them with the flight attendant) I'm presently working in Finance with a firm in midtown, and I love every aspect of the city. It's true.. "these bright lights will inspire you".. I believe that a relationship is not about dependency. A person must be independent, but the other partner is there to complement their life and make it that much more special and enjoyable. I'm over the games, drama, and pettiness of the infantile dating scene for those that don't know what they want and are willing to settle for less than they deserve. I'm very pleased right now with everything I've worked towards, and now if someone came along for me to share it with then that's one of life's small miracles. I enjoy cooking and try to lead a very active and healthy lifestyle. I recently started capoiera classes and I'm trying to get my handstands down haha. I've never been much of a picture person. To me if you constantly try and "capture the moment" you're not enjoying the moment. My family is a very closely nitched italian family, and they mean the world to me. I've been fortunate to have a good upbringing surrounded by positive support throughout my endeavors. Message me if you'd like to learn more.

those unknown little food nitches in the city that no one knows until you've stumbled on it...I've always wanted to visit Italy (the homeland haha) but haven't yet. I've also always wanted to visit Costra Rica.
Villanova University, Villanova, PA
My favorite thing to eat would have to be anything italian and sushi. I listen to a variety of music from dance music to classical to rap and even country.
In my spare time when I'm not working I enjoy reading, watching movies, going out to bars/lounges, dancing, restaurants, anything outdoors that keeps me active.
I just finished a book called Portfolios of the Poor. It's a behavioral economist study of over a hundred different households in three third world countries and how they manage to survive on incomes of less than $2/day. Absolutely an eye opener.

Set of Gaming Pieces
The game of senet reflects the belief that the deceased encountered demons on the road to the underworld who blocked gateways. The Egyptian word senet means "passing," a reference to avoiding the demons when passing through the gateways. The game board represents the zones through which the deceased had to travel to reach the place of judgment. A New Kingdom text suggests the game was played between the deceased and an unnamed opponent, the stakes being the deceased's continued existence. But there is also evidence that senet was popular among the living.

Watch Royal Pains
Doctor Hank Lawson is a successful emergency medicine physician in a busy New York hospital until he makes a decision that the hospital board doesn't approve of. In his efforts to save two patients at once, a rich hospital beneficiary dies, and Hank loses his job. As if this isn't bad enough, his gold-digging fiancee dumps him when she finds out, leaving him alone and jobless, drinking beer in his underwear as his furniture is repossessed.
After allowing him to mope for a little while, Hank's accountant brother Evan pulls him out of his apartment and takes him on a forced vacation to the Hamptons. While at a party there, Hank correctly diagnoses a girl who has collapsed and saves her from receiving the wrong treatment from another doctor. The party's host, the rich and mysterious Boris, offers Hank a place in his guest house and a job as a concierge doctor to the rich and famous.
Hank is reluctant at first, but with some push from his brother, a new friendship with Hamptons Heritage hospital administrator Jill Casey, and a very competent physician's assistant, he and Evan set up the concierge medicine outfit HankMed. Thanks to Evan's business savvy and Hank's bedside manner, they are quickly a booming success, treating the rich, famous, and sometimes eccentric patients of the Hamptons. Hank is still Hank, though, and he makes sure to help out those who cannot afford medical care in his spare time.
HankMed understandably goes through some growing pains at times, as Evan and Hank figure out that being brothers in business together takes some doing. Physician assistant Divya Katdare deals with personal issues while working for the duo, and Hank enters a rocky relationship with Jill. Only time will tell what their further adventures in the Hamptons will bring.

Written in grease pencil on a tourist postcard, the lyrics are winsome and innocent. But for famous folk singer Peggy Muryan, who has moved recently to the rural community of Hamelin, Tennessee, they are a chilling reminder of a troubled moment in her past.

"A solid start to the series"
A little mystery with interesting characters that might be found in any small southern town. Interesting characters, a tie to events 20 years old, a class reunion, and small town crimes. A good read.
The female characters could be better created, but the main male characters are interesting. The narrative is set in the mid 1980s but refers to events of the mid 1960s and the Vietnam War.
I listened to it on audible. The narrator was pretty good. This is the first in a popular series that has at least ten books.

Researchers also found surprising results regarding the effectiveness of medicine in treating ADHD. In contrast to children in United States, youth in northern Finland are rarely treated with medicine for ADHD, yet the 'look' of the disorder its prevalence, symptoms, psychiatric comorbidity and cognition is relatively the same as in the U.S., where stimulant medication is widely used. The researchers point out that this raises important issues about the efficacy of the current treatments of ADHD in dealing with the disorder's long-term problems.
"We know medication is very effective in the short-term," said Smalley, who authored or co-authored each of the papers. "But the study raises important questions concerning the long-term efficacy of ADHD treatment. Here we have two different cultures and two different approaches to treatment, yet at the time of adolescence, there are few differences in the presentation and problems associated with ADHD."
Other findings from the wide-ranging study include:

[QUOTE=GuiltyParty;22060584]We took our time getting ready, we were in no rush. We were aiming for Karakol on Issyk Kul (a lake) but if we didn't make it no big deal.
The radiator fluid had dropped to the minimum level so I had to top up with some distilled water. As bit of a byproduct of the days I was riding the KLR I brought 1L of oil to top-up but have never needed it, and instead I should have brought a litre of the HOAT radiator fluid. It's only ever been at altitude the bike has needed it though.
Be careful when topping up radiator fluid if you mix coolants they can turn to a acidic fluid and make holes in your radiator and eventually the engine. I know this because I did it to a car. better to top up with distilled water or flush and refill.

You wouldn't read about it...
Leaving Almaty took some time because of traffic around markets on the north side of town. Out of town and finally on the open road a car flew up beside us beeping his horn, wedging us between his car and a truck as he overtook. Asshole. I had the satisfaction of watching him get pulled over by police as I rode past waving at him
The landscape was quite flat with sections of hills but nothing really worthy of a photo. The roads were surprisingly good though with a couple of dirt sections around roadworks. Way better than we expected.
Finding a camping spot was a little hard because it was so flat and open but eventually we found a track that led to some running water Camping beside running water makes all the difference. It's easier to wash dishes and we can give ourselves a quick wash. It adds a little bit of luxury to camping. It was a difficult spot to pitch a tent though - the ground had a layer of sand on top with rocks underneath so the pegs wouldn't go in. We made do by putting some rocks on the corners of the tent and around the guy ropes but it certainly wasn't stable - a fart would blow it over so we hoped we wouldn't get any wind during the night.
As the sun set and the stars came out I sat on a rock beside the tent and took it all in. I saw a meteor streak across the sky, a bright satellite slowly make it's way across the sky until it disappeared over the horizon and a dozen or so planes silently pass high above. A slight breeze picked up but the tent was sheltered behind a hill so it wasn't affected.
During the night the wind changed direction and picked up, blowing the tent all over the place. The rocks weren't big enough to hold it down and luckily it wasn't raining, so we just let the wind blow its course and let the tent fall around us. Rain and wind would have been a horrible combination but we were ok. Tying some ropes to the tent for anchors was added to the 'to-do' list. We ate dust for breakfast.
Not far down the road we stopped at a little shop for our favourite snack, iced tea and chips. The lady in the shop was really friendly and gave us a bunch of grapes and asked if we wanted to join her for tea. Of course we said yes.
We stayed for the next couple of hours chatting away in our bad russian and miming. We were tempted to stay the night, even though we were only 30 minutes down the road from where we camped the night before. As we were about to leave she took us around her vege patch and bagged us some tomatoes and apples. It was the best home vege patch I'd ever seen - we snacked on mulberries, and could have taken strawberries, potatoes and a bunch of other stuff. She had a rabbit hutch full of rabbits just for the pot
We weren't kitted out for all these soft fruits though with our soft panniers so we awkwardly attached it the outside of our bags while she watched on. 30 minutes down the road it all turned to juice.
We said our farewells and not long after we spotted two bikes heading towards us Seb and Kim had just come from Mongolia on two DRZ's and said "it was shit" - not the response we were expecting. Bad roads and rain.
Nothing out here but flat...and soon rain.
It was getting late and I could see Ayagoz appear on my GPS and I remembered the Russian lady that gave us the fruit saying something about Ayagoz being a nice town. About 15km out, a camping waypoint came up on my GPS. Must be a sign.
The track lead us to bit of a water crossing which looked too deep to cross so I stepped it out but it seemed ok and I decided to give it a go. There were some tracks that looked like they were recently used beside the main track that avoided some swampy muddy water. We used the side track, but on the approach the front wheel broke a rock away from the main track and the bike went over, sending Patty into the swmapy water. She was fuming and wouldn't get back on the bike for the crossing so I did it myself and she walked it.
We crossed from the other side.
The view at sunset was worth it...
...or so I thought.
The rains from the previous day had raised the crossing a bit as expected and it was starting to rain again.
We prepared ourselves for the crossing, and I gave Patty the heads up to help pick the bike up straightaway if it went over.
We entered the water and the bike held it's line, not bouncing all over the place on the rocks beneath the surface. The weight of the bike was helping keep it straight. We made it through the deepest section and had our sights firmly on the far bank. About half-way across the front wheel skipped off a rock and we momentarily lost traction - but that was enough. As the bike went over Patty ended up in the water, again, but she jumped to her feet to help pick it up. We picked it up and tried kicking it over but it wouldn't fire
We went into a panic mode and madly started unloading all the luggage to prepare it for a push. I said to Patty "this is bad, this is really bad" We dropped all the bags on the far bank. Heaving and frothing, yelling 1,2 3 we got the bike back to solid ground.
I feared the worst. The rain wouldn't let up so I couldn't take the tank off to do an inspection of the spark plugs and inlet manifolds. We pitched our wet tent and found the dryest clothes we could and sat in it, shivering. It rained, and rained, and rained and we started to worry the creek might actually cause the waters to rise up to the tent.
After a couple of hours of persistent rain we could finally see some blue sky on the horizon. Our spirits lifted, we couldn't believe it. The bike was in bad shape so we took the break in the weather and packed our bags and hid them behind a tree and headed for the main road, only about a 2km walk. We left the bike on the track.
I tried flagging down some cars for about 30 minutes but they all whizzed past and barely looked at me, so Patty thought she would give it a go. She stuck her arm out and the car practically locked on its brakes to pick her up
In Ayagoz 15km down the road we found a guy willing to help tow us into town but first we had to wait a couple of hours for his steering rack to be fixed.
Ayagoz town exists because of the military base, and as you enter town there is a checkpoint but normally they just wave you on. On the way out though our driver decided to check it was ok that he tow a motorcycle into town. The conversation went a little something like this:-
Inspector: no, no towing motorcycles in Kazakhstan, not allowed
Me: blab blab blab but I need to
Inspector: no, not possible
me: blab blab but my visa expires in two days
inspector: I feel like chai, showing Patty to the door
me: you want chai, you want me to go and buy you chai? The other inspector in the room laughs
inspector: no, I feel like chai, and pretends to sip tea and look away from the road
me: The penny drops. And I give him the equivalent of a £35 bribe
As we turned down the track to the bike I see fresh 4wd tracks and start to think the worst and sure enough the bike wasn't where I parked it. We drive a bit further and Patty is the first to point out someone towing my bike faraway in the distance and then drop it. I burst out of the car and run after them and catch up to them. Two guys start walking towards me, one wearing military gear the other wearing normal clothes. I start checking their hands for weapons but see nothing. They start saying something about taking the bike to military and I say I've just spoken to the military. They got back in their car and started to drive off in a hurry, a little too fast for my liking and I thought about the baggage so I yelled something out to them. One guy got back out of his car and opened the boot to show me he didn't have anything else so I let him go.
They broke the steering lock by force and I don't know how but they broke the front mudguard. The guy dropped the bike when I saw him because the brake cable got caught around the knobbies, putting the bike into a 15m front wheel lockup until he eventully dropped it.
We recovered our bags and got towed into town.
At the hotel I took the instrument panel off the bike and it was absolutely full of water. Not a little bit of water...a LOT of water. How could this happen on an adventure bike?! It amazes me the unit isn't a sealed water tight unit. It looked fried, and we left it overnight to dry. An electrician checked the other electrics and they seemed ok.
It was late so we hit the hay, devastated and exhausted.

There are a 100 roads and 100 ways to but you only choose one - Russian proverb
The next day we had to register our details at the local police station, which is required if you stay 5 days or longer. If you don't you can get big fines. It was our sixth day because we were supposed to do it in Semey on the day the bike went for a swim but it slipped our mind. Luckily for us though the hotel was run by the Lt Col of police's wife and she smooth talked her way out of a fine for us Finally something went our way.
The lady also stopped two motorcyclists on their way through town and they were waiting for us at the hotel when we got back from the police station. Markus is a german with a kiwi accent and Jim's a kiwi. They were on the Mongol Rally.
We got to work cleaning the water out of it. I took the airbox off and the filter was very wet and the cylinders had a fair amount of water sitting in them. The spark plugs were also wet.
We cleaned the water out from the cylinders by pouring a small amount of petrol down each of the cylinders and taking the plugs out and pushing the bike and dropping the clutch in second gear. I was the lucky guy to stand at the front and got the blow back of petrol in the face as it blew out of the cylinder head. We did it 4 or 5 times to get it all out then let it dry in the sun.
The looking glass for the oil didn't look milky so we left it, and also because there was no motorcycle oil in town. In hindsight we should have still dropped the oil
and replaced it with car oil for the time being.
With the fuel tank back on, a new air filter, and spark plug contacts dried and cleaned with sandpaper we tried firing it using the electric starter - nothing. We tried a bump start - nothing. It wouldn't fire.
I had a feeling the computer was looking for the instrument panel but Markus and Jim checked over everything else that could be a problem. Jim's an engineer on helicopters and Markus is an electric engineer and these guys know what they are talking about so I let them do their thing.
Using the circuit diagram on my laptop they tried shorting the connections in the instrument panel plug but that didn't work either.
We ran DealerTool and the only fault to come up was P1695 but it didn't give a description. I called two Triumph dealers and they hadn't heard of this fault, they could only come up with P1659 which was related to the battery. I contacted DealerTool and now know this fault code is a failure between the ECU and instruments.
While we worked on the bike the lady who ran the hotel went out of her way to help us. She gave us a free dinner the night before and knocked up a two course meal for the four of us. In case the bike didn't work the Lt Col of police looked for a vehicle for us to take the bike the 500km to the border - I think he just wanted us out of his town because our visa was running out.
We spent several hours looking over the bike trying to trick the ECU into thinking the instrument panel was attached but we couldn't do it. Eventually we had to give up and admit defeat - we loaded the bike into a van for the 500km, 12 hour trip to the border.
The driver took us through the Kazakh and Russian borders and dropped us on the Russian side.
The car trip mixed the water with the oil
We spent a couple of fruitless hours at the border looking for someone to take us. Ever tried hitchhiking? It can take hours. Now imagine hitchhiking with a motorcycle. We decided our best bet was to go to the next town (Rubtsovsk) 50km away and ask around.
We hitchhiked and a driver dropped us at a timberyard and the people went out of their way to help us. They didn't have a truck we could use but while they looked for one and we waited they bought us pizza and drinks.
They found us a truck and I made the trip back to the border to get the bike and we did the transition from one truck to another for the trip to Barnaul.
Sergei and Tanya insisted we stay the night but we really wanted to get to Barnaul to meet Jim and Markus who might be able to spend more time looking for a way to get the bike fixed.
Before we left though they invited us in for dinner in the timberyard office...and then the vodka's started We munched on various greasy meats with our fingers while 6 of us got sloshed on vodka. This was just the experience I wanted in Russia! The vodka's were flowing, we were serenaded with Russian anthems and we had grease all over our fingers. The urgency of fixing the bike slowly started to disappear as the 6 vodka shots took effect. I had to get out, this is going to end badly, probably involving me soiling myself in their office.
We said our sad farewells and promised we would visit again. Awesome bunch of people but unfortunately no photos because the camera was dead.
We now have the bike in Barnaul and the instrument panel is with a guy the local auto shop calls 'the master' and he's trying to get the signal working that goes to the ECU, even if nothing else works it doesn't matter. It's looking slim though so this is probably trip over for us.
We are feeling a bit defeated. We repaired it once and the bike was performing like new but now something as simple as an instrument panel is stopping the whole bike from running. It's left a bitter taste in my mouth. What should only be giving information like speed and mileage is a key component of the bike and has stopped us in our tracks, literally. It's surprising and disappointing to see that sort of design on an adventure bike. It survived falling 12 metres down a cliff but drop it in some water and the thing gives up.
Jack Lilley Triumph can't give me a workaround to avoid the instrument panel because there is a micro-processor in it and honestly I didn't think they would because it's really outside their expertise, I need Triumph Central's help on this one. There is a back order of new instrument panels until September so that's not an option....but buying a new one costs £600 + delivery so it's not really an option anyway. I've also asked if they can send me a remap of the ECU but it's unlikely they will. Last time they couldn't even respond to my emails so I don't expect any after-service support from Triumph anymore.
We're thinking of freighting it to Vladivostok where it will be shipped to Australia and we're contacting people on the Mongol Rally to see if we can join them.

Job in Congress a pay cut for Indiana's Bucshon
INDIANAPOLIS - Rep. Larry Bucshon is not doing it for the money.
The freshman Republican took a pay cut this year, earning a lower salary as a member of Congress than he did last year as a heart surgeon in Newburgh.
His $265,000 salary with Ohio Valley HeartCare, Inc. from 2010 easily tops the $174,000 in pay he will receive this year as a member of the U.S. House of Representatives.
Bucshon's earnings last year, as well as hundreds of thousands of dollars in investments, were detailed in the annual personal financial reports filed by members of Congress and made public last week.
Some lawmakers, including Republican Sen. Dan Coats, received extensions. Republican Sen. Richard Lugar's net worth is $2.2 million.
Former U.S. Rep. Baron Hill, the Seymour Democrat who represented Southern Indiana's 9th District for five terms before losing to Todd Young last fall, has a new job.
He will work for APCO Worldwide, a communications and public affairs consulting group, as their senior vice president in the government affairs division.
In a release announcing the job, Hill touted the "lasting networks" he built during his time in office, which he said would "enable me to better understand and serve complex client needs."
Robert Schooling, the company's president for the Americas, said Hill's experience on health care reform and climate change legislation — both of which he supported — qualify him for the position.
"Baron brings fresh insights from one of the most pivotal recent congressional sessions," Schooling said.
State Rep. Phil GiaQuinta, D-Fort Wayne, has already complained about the fines of more than $3,000 each that Republicans levied against Indiana House Democrats who spent five weeks in Urbana, Ill., during this year's legislative session.
State Rep. Bill Crawford, D-Indianapolis, added himself to that list of objectors last week when he filed a lawsuit in Marion County court.
His problem is not with the fines themselves, but to the way they were levied. House Speaker Brian Bosma, R-Indianapolis, ordered them taken out of Democrats' per diem paychecks.
Phil GiaQuinta's brother, Mark, is representing Crawford.

At a time when the business aviation industry is showing signs of recovery, you may be wondering whether it makes more sense to update a used airplane or buy a brand new one from a manufacturer. Some brokers, analysts and consultants say you're now often better off putting money into a good used aircraft-one you buy or one you already own-than opting for a factory-fresh model.

Paul Graham speaking to a group of Y Combinator companies in 2009. Wikimedia
The UpTake: Y Combinator almost didn't happen, said Paul Graham. But slow-moving VCs forced his hand, a good thing for the upstart economy.
Y Combinator in nine years has formed the mold for startup accelerators, helped to launch over 600 companies and has created more than $10 billion in value. But it nearly didn't happen, according to Paul Graham, who is stepping down as its leader.
It all began when a Boston venture firm was too slow to hire Graham's wife and co-founder, Jessica Livingston, as vice president of marketing.
"The VCs were taking so long to make up their minds that I said, 'F--- 'em. We'll just start our own thing,'" Graham said in an on-stage interview at the Launch Festival in San Francisco on Monday.
"If that VC fund had not been so typically slow-moving, Y Combinator would never have existed," he said and then offered a list of other "happy accidents" that shaped how the "Harvard of startup accelerators" became what it is today.
There has been an explosion of similar programs, each bringing together batches of startups for a few months and ending with a Demo Day presentation to prospective investors.
But much of that structure happened because it was modeled as a summer undergraduate student program that borrowed some ideas from Harvard's Society of Fellows program for exceptional students.
"It is three months long because that is what summer vacation is," Graham said about the first sessions in Cambridge. "Compared to a regular summer job it was a great deal. We got hundreds of applications."
The idea for weekly dinners where all of the founders get together and hear from successful entrepreneurs and funders comes from the Harvard program.
Demo Days are an idea that Graham and Livingston came up with part way through the first batch. "We realized that it would be good to have them present to potential investors at the end of the program."

The Washington Redskins will place defensive end Kedric Golston on injured reserve with a third-degree MCL tear and a partially torn ACL, and also will re-sign defensive end Darrion Scott, according to a person with knowledge of the situation. Golston suffered the injury in the third quarter of the Redskins 20-9 loss. The sixth-year pro out of Georgia, who has spent all of his career with the Redskins, had 16 tackles, 1.5 sacks and a forced fumble this season. Read full article >>

Rajon Rondo is back, and he's looking to provide a spark for the Boston Celtics. Facing the Minnesota Timberwolves is usually a good way for them to do that, but this time may be different. Rondo will try to help the Celtics continue their dominance in this series Wednesday night while the Timberwolves attempt to build off their most lopsided victory of the season. Boston (9-8) split two games without Rondo, who served a suspension for shoving Brooklyn's Kris Humphries into the stands in retaliation for a hard foul on Kevin Garnett during a 95-83 loss last Wednesday. The Celtics seemed to be cruising to a second victory without the All-Star guard on Saturday, but they wasted a game-opening 17-0 run and fell 91-88 at Milwaukee. Rondo, the NBA leader with 12.9 assists per game, is thrilled to be back and wants to help the Celtics, who have dropped four of seven and averaged 89.0 points over their last three. "It was difficult," Rondo told the team's official website. "I love being aro...

Welcome to CA!
You´ve been painting just a year and you can paint this? Man, great work, this should be interesting sketchbook.
Your sense for painting landscape and all the action in it is just great. Something I´ll be finding out for myself for a looong time.
The last one blows my mind, keep it up man!
July 8th, 2009 #3
Nice pictures, keep it up!
But I've noticed something with the image "LeVikings" - the hand of the viking holding the axe is a bit off. It's like he's holding the axe between his fingers, and not in his fist.
Other than that, great work - the last one is particularly nice.
"Never regret thy fall from grace, O' spirit of Icarian flight, for the greatest tragedy of them all to face, is to never feel the burning bright"

Thanks! I should have mentioned though, that a few of these images (like the sub) can't quite qualify as speed paintings. I like doing quick 1-3 hr works, and most of them here are, but the submarine, the post-apoc, and the first mech painting are hardly speedies, each taking at least seven hours. I hope I didn't bother anyone with the massive size of the images too.

The performance intake kit arrived promptly. The instructions were good. I installed it on a 1997 Mazda Miata. The performance boost with the intake kit was noticeable right away. The car pulls stronger from lower RPMs than previously and pulls right through the power range. There is also an aggressive sound that enhances the driving experience for me. Overall I am very pleased with the K&N product.

K&N replacement filter for my 2014 Camaro SS/RS/1LE. Perfect fit. Fast delivery. 100% satisfied.
October 13, 2014
Excellent upgrade. Good quality and so easy to fit with just the limited tools I had on hand. Probably took me 90 mins in total. I bought a K&N air filter for my very first car in 1980 and I would recommend K&N over any other product. On my Raptor it would appear I am now getting better fuel mileage with the K&N performance kit installed. Even though I am accelerating slightly more aggressively. Why? Because I can and it sounds great.

After installing the cold air intake for my 2011 Acura TSX 2.4L (201 HP) here are the changes I noticed: 1. Sound: I used direct air filters many years ago for a different car. I got more and better sound than expected. No difference in sound if you don't push the car, which is great about these filters; sound is on demand. 2. Power: My car had really low power in low RPMs. I know the HP/torque graphs on K&N website doesn't show much power difference in low RPMs for my car but I'm feeling a 5-10% improvement - of course this is just me saying it without an official measurement. In higher RPMs, the power is obviously feel-able. I can say the 7 HPs increase that K&N website claimed for my car is accurate, it may be a bit more than that. 3. MPG: In city, there isn't noticeable difference. However, on (mostly) highway I was making around 400 miles with a full tank. Now it's about 420 miles. So 20 miles more for my car/commute/driving, well, I'll take it.

Wow is all I got to say. When the car passes the 4.5k rmp mark it feels as if I have a turbo and the car accelerates insanely fast. I would recomend this to every Eclipse enthusiast. Installation took 2 hours. No hassle. Great product!

Had purchased a similar unit for my new 2002 Tundra. Just got this one installed in my new 2014 Tundra. Have noticed a significant acceleration boost when passing other vehicles, but not sure yet if increased gas mileage, although the average MPG has increased from 16.4 to 17 since installation. I'd LIKE to attribute this change to the K&N unit. Have also been using other K&N air filters for our other cars for many years. Really like your products.

Used this filter in my 2011 BMW M3 Convertible w/manual transmission. Replaced it at 22000 miles. Replaced the original without incident. It sounds great and runs real smooth in all 3 driving modes. I use these filters in all of my cars and motorcycles. I only wish I could get them for my Desert Aircraft 150cc and Valach 210cc RC giant scale airplane engines. It would be great to protect them also.

2014 Yamaha FZ-09 Installation was easy, minus the minor surgery of removing the side scoop covers and gas tank to get to the air box. (BTW, you don't have to disconnect the fuel line, only the vacuum hoses and electrical connector. Simply put a towel over the rear body work to prevent scratching, and you can turn the tank around 180 degrees to get it out of your way.)The filter slipped right into place and the cover went back on smoothly.
Upon starting the bike, there was a noticeable difference in sound (stock exhaust) which I didn't expect. It sounds a little throatier. On the first ride, the difference was definitely noticeable. The throttle response was crisp, and it pulled harder through the RPM range than stock. I recently had the stock ECU re-flashed by the dealer to the 2015 factory spec which still maintains all the emissions standards, but smooths out the herky-jerky first 1/4 throttle response, and the power delivery is that much more enjoyable, plentiful, and fun to ride. Standard mode feels more like A-mode, and A-mode is quite beastly now. With warm dry roads and weather, B-mode has not been tested yet. I would recommend this to anyone before spending a ton of money on an aftermarket exhaust. I would be interested to see dyno No.'s which I could not find on this site.

K&N has extended their industry-leading filter technologies to an often overlooked application the cabin filter. Road dust, allergens and engine exhaust all make their way to you vehicle's interior without a cabin filter. K&N has devised a washable lifetime filter that combats these pollutants leaving you vehicle cleaner with better quality air.

I've had a K&N short ram intake for almost 5 years on my 09 Civic Si. Never had a problem with it. I bought an extra filter to change out the other one when it became dirty. Can't be happier with the purchase. K&N makes quality products and no matter what car I have in the future, it will have a K&N intake on it.

I tried the drop in K&N filter in my 2014 dodge 1500 5.7l hemi and there was a noticeble difference in sound, pickup and fuel mileage , so i only lasted a week with it and bought the whole cold air intake system. I love the deeper sound and growl it gives, along with more power it has saved a noticeable amount of fuel. I was averaging 13L/100km highway. Now I am around 10L/100km highway. Great as I'm on highway each week. A great cheap and easy upgrade to make. Very easy to install and I'm no mechanic! Great product!

I did a feed back already to an independent company on your product I said that this product is a Definite Need to have for Anyone with any Respiratory Issues , from Severe Lung Killer Illnesses to lessor issues like chronic colds & sinus & asthma illnesses.
Personally , I could use a way more advantaged air filtering system for my car if K & N were to develop A MEDICAL GRADE AIR FILTRATION SYSTEM. More people die yearly from lung related illness than from breast cancer but little is being done about lung illnesses. I am not referring to Tobacco, Drug or Alcohol Related Lung Illnesses.

Installed a K&N filter on the 2nd day I bought my new 2012 Prius. I always get about 60MPG on the highway. Even city MPG is in the high 50MPG. I don't know what the original paper filter would have given me and don't really care. K&N air filters rule the road!

I'm impressed. Easy install. Now I'm getting even better milage. I got 41.3 mpg on a recent trip and had to take a picture of the read out and send it to my buddy. Note: I did wrap the intake with insulation.
Take that Toyota prius. 41.3 mpg ain't too shabby. I'll take my ford focus any day.

I have used K&N air filters for years. I just put this kit on my pickup. Already it idles smoother, starts easier, and there is a noticeable increase in get up and go when I hit the gas pedal. I wish I would have bought one years ago. This is my first performance intake kit installation and it couldn't have been simpler to install. My truck is already performing better than my buddies truck which is in better shape overall. Both trucks are the same make model and year. He will be buying one shortly. With this affordable, great looking, simple to use kit I feel like I just breathed new life into my truck. This kit goes beyond just upgrading the air filter to the legendary K&N performance filters. Thank you for making this elegant piece of technology affordable and so easy to use! What a difference!!!

The installation was easy enough and rather straight forward. Once installed the engine sounds really good. You can feel the difference in pick up immediately.
Is the second cold air intake I have purchased from K&N first one was for a Dodge Dakota R/T 5.9 ltr. Love them both.
Would recommend to everyone.

Absolutely fantastic replacement over the original paper filter... you can hear the difference! Car breaths better and has noticeable improvement in fuel economy (averaged 30-40mpg before, now more like 35-40mpg). Thanks.

My review is for K&N air and oil filters for Mercedes Benz AMG vehicles and BMW motorcycles. I've had extremely positive results using K&N filters over many years and highly recommend both K&N air and oil filters. K&N filters are a safe bet and worthwhile investment.

Just bought a 2004 Toyota Tacoma and installed the cold air intake and I feel that it gives a little more horse power and love the way it sounds. Not really a gas saver when you drive well over the speed limits though. I definitely would purchase another for my next Toyota.

Replaced OEM filter in about 2 minutes. 1.5 - 2 more MPG sounds throatier. Love it.

Growth remained slow at MI-Connection Communications System in the fiscal year that ended June 30 as continued expansion of the company's telephone and internet businesses was not enough to overcome a sluggish cable TV market.

Hi, just picked up one of these, hasn't arrived yet, but was wondering if anyone has any experience with this lens.
I want to use it on a Linhof Tech. V, if possible, with most likely a 6x12 back.I know it will be a pain in a#@e to see through, but I'll see how it goes.
If it won't go back far enough on the V, I can use it on a Kardon Color.
