THE Tanzania Zambia Railway Authority (TAZARA) has received four cranes and six forklifts worth more than 70 million US dollars from the People's Republic of China.
Addressing journalists shortly after accompanying the visiting Chinese Vice President Li Yuanchao on a short Tazara train ride to Pugu in Dar es Salaam, the Minister for Transport, Dr Harrison Mwakyembe, said the assistance is part of China's pledge to help improve TAZARA.
"TAZARA has received four large cranes, forklifts and other rail spare parts, which is part of the yearly assistance promised by China," Dr Mwakyembe explained.
He said Tanzania continues to appreciate assistance extended by China at present and in the 70s when Tanzania really needed a friend.
"The saying to the effect that a friend in need is a friend indeed was truly reflected in the assistance provided by China 40 years ago in building the railway line when Tanzania was working to liberate Zimbabwe (Southern Rhodesia) and other Southern African countries," he explained.
The Transport Minister said the 500 million US-dollar TAZARA project, was the largest single foreign aid project undertaken by China 40 years ago and built in the highest standards, whose infrastructure are still in good shape 40 years later.
Dr Mwakyembe said the Chinese vice-president was impressed with the TAZARA infrastructure being in good shape since it was built 40 years ago during the ride to Pugu, which was more of an inspection of the infrastructure. The delegates, from China and Tanzania, rode in the Tazara VIP carriage.
Earlier after the short train ride to Pugu, Mr Li commended the authority and its workers for maintaining the infrastructure, including the 1,800-km long railway line from Dar es Salaam to Kapiri Mposhi in Zambia in good shape despite being built four decades ago.
The Chinese leader promised to hold in-depth discussions with his counterparts when he goes back to China to find more ways to help the railway authority.
TAZARA has also been receiving various assistance packages under the 15th Protocol of Economic and Technical Cooperation signed by the governments of China, Tanzania and Zambia on March 2012, valued at 270 million Yuan, approximately 40 million US dollars.
The protocol covers procurement of 18 passenger coaches and accompanying consumables, supply of four new main line locomotives, two shunting locomotives, two rescue cranes and various lifting equipments.
Others are a track trolley, assorted spare parts, 230,000 pieces of wooden sleepers, and training of staff and attachment of Chinese Railway experts to TAZARA over a specific period.
So far, the authority has received financial support to the tune of more than interest-free 2.5 billion Yuan loan, including the construction of the railway line.
The railway line was constructed for five years -- between 1970 and 1975, work for which was done by the China Railway Construction Corporation (CRCC), a subsidiary of China Civil Engineering Construction Corporation, which was born as the result of TAZARA construction.
In the 1970s, Tanzania and Zambia had resolved to build the joint railway line but lacked funds. When several Western countries were first approached for assistance, they rebuffed the idea, insisting that the project was not economically viable, a view also supported by the World Bank.
However, China, under the leadership of Communist Party Chairman Mao Zedong, saw the wider necessity of the line and offered to finance it as a turnkey project.
The rail project, set up under the aegis of the Tanzania-Zambia Railway Authority, connects landlocked Zambia with Tanzania and also serves as an alternative export route to destinations like Zimbabwe, South Africa and Mozambique.
Aside from the transport links it provides, it is also an example of how Chinese investment has helped transform the lives and economies of Africans.
Meanwhile the Vice-President, Dr Mohammed Gharib Bilal, has praised China for recording improved economic growth owing to hard work and innovation of its people unlike most other developed countries that have made progress by exploiting others.
"Historically, the majority of developed countries have attained wealth by ruling and exploiting other countries. But the situation is different for China, which has managed to prosper through determination of its people," Dr Gharib remarked.
Dr Bilal made the remarks while officiating at the joint conference of Confucius Institutes in Africa held at the Mlimani City Conference Centre in Dar es Salaam on Tuesday, which drew participants from across the continent.
The vice-president challenged African countries to emulate China's path of development, noting that the Asian country has gone through the same economic hardships that African countries are currently facing.
"I, however, believe that through Confucius Institutes in Africa, we would be able to be more innovative and lead us to productivity," he observed. The VP added that Africans don't have reasons to start thinking of flying rockets to the moon. "Africa can start by producing commodities it needs for its people and export surplus," he suggested.
Dr Bilal observed that Africa can learn many things from China, which is now the second best economy in the world, since the two have long-standing historic relations which can be used to spur economic growth.
Speaking at the occasion, the visiting Chinese Vice-President, Mr Li Yuanchao, said he was confident that the Confucius Institutes in Africa would promote cultural exchange between the continent and China.
Mr Li, however, urged the institutions to support communities in areas they operate through provision of occupational and vocational training to the people.
"You should not only teach Chinese language and culture in the African continent but also support the communities to attain development just as the Chinese saying that you should not give fish to a friend but teach that friend how to fish," the Chinese VP remarked.
He also urged the young generation in the continent to continue strengthening Sino-Africa ties, describing them as "the future hope of friendship between the two."
Speaking during the occasion, the Vice-Chancellor of the University of Dar es Salaam (UDSM), Prof Rwekaza Mukandala, said his institution plans to start offering Chinese language courses to education students who will later teach the language in secondary schools countrywide.
"With the joint efforts of local institutions and Confucius Institutes, our people are offered the opportunity to learn Chinese language. "This is an opportunity that has made significant contributions in the business community, which is actively involved in trade with China," Prof Mukandala said.
He added that as both countries mark the 50 years of Sino-Tanzania diplomatic relations, they should take pride of the fact that efforts have been made through the Tanzanian government for successful establishment of Confucius Institutes at the University of Dar es Salaam and Dodoma."
Prof Mukandala noted that the institutions were instrumental in offering cultural exchange and Chinese language learning as an effective approach to further development of Sino-Africa ties.

I don't have my Halloween decorations up yet, but I do have all of my October displays out.
I love my displays so much more now that I'm doing the signs in color. And work has been so great this month, I'm tackling a ton of projects that are so satisfying. My brain is working pretty well during the 2nd trimester, so I'm taking advantage before it turns to mush again in a couple of months. I've totally revamped the Battle of the Books program at school, I've got the schedule finished for the library moms, I put in another great book order, I finally tackled the filing system my predecessor left behind, and all my lesson plans are written through the first week of November.
Other BEA posts: BEA 2009, BEA 2011 Pt. 1.
Let's just take a moment to breathe this in, shall we?
63 books. Sixty-three glorious books. In TWO DAYS.
And yet the more I read about BEA, the more I feel I need to do differently next year. People seem to have the science of BEA-going nailed down to precise Swiss-inspired movements, but I stumble around from booth to booth gawking at beloved authors and grabbing bags. And donuts. And posing with Elephant and Piggie.
Don't get me wrong, I brought my "A" game this week. But I've only been to BEA once before, and that was 2 years ago. I'm out of practice, and I haven't perfected my technique. Tickets to great signings were not obtained, video cameras were forgotten at home, and I didn't believe in the sweet relief of bringing an empty suitcase until Day 2.
This was the day we went into Sheffield to see where Adam grew up and to meet up with his friends.
I wanted to go to Cromford because I'd read there was a quilt shop there. On the way we stopped at Caudwell's Mill and Craft Centre.

I've done a lot since my Back to School List, and I've updated that one with all the things I've gotten done. But I've got all new things juggling in the air now that the holidays are approaching. I have so few free weekends left in 2010, I've really got to get myself organized. October has sailed by in this haze, I'm not sure exactly how that happened. But now it's time get serious!
Some of the boys at school kept asking me where the gun books were, and after weeks of protesting that this is a school library and we wouldn't have books about weapons, I figured out what they were talking about.
It's from 1963. I actually found a stockpile of books about weapons from the 50's and 60's. They were added to the pile of goodies in the "yard sale" I had in the library this week.
My first month in my new job is now officially on the books. It's been a really exhilarating, exhausting, exciting experience. (I love alliteration). I'm getting a handle on things, I have lots of ideas for my new library, my books and supplies are ordered, and I'm getting to know all the people at school. But I'm glad that tomorrow is October. I've put life on hold a little this month while I immerse myself in work. And also in looking fab in a different outfit every day this month.

Product Website: http://www.trafficandleadstrainingacademy.com
Bonus Included: My Special $4000+ Bonuses + Unannounced Bonuses
Traffic and Leads Training Academy is aimed at building an online business, as it helps the business owners generate traffic to their websites and further convert them into quality business leads, who are willing to pay for their services and products. The academy offers a step-by-step training that is understandable by everyone, thus leading the business owners to solid online income.One of the most distinctive qualities of this program is that, the users are told before hand that in order to attain success in the internet market, they need to put their best foot forward, by putting in the required efforts. The detailed training is easy to follow and is based on two internet marketing concepts namely Traffic generation and Lead Generation.
How To Get Massive Amounts of Free Traffic From Google
In order to have a successful online business, one needs to have traffic on their websites, that is one of the reasons why the business is not generating any sales. Traffic generation is basically a marketing strategy meant to attract the audiences to the online website. The traffic is then converted into business leads and clients for the business owner to start earning by commission.
The academy provides the students with an insight on how traffic can be generated on specific websites. Almost all the strategies that are talked about are available everywhere, but the academy provides them in a sequence, so as to yield the best results. It offers a live training program with weekly training webinars live for the first eight weeks along with updates after that.
The lifetime access to private membership website where the students will be able to access the content throughout the day, which also includes access to the training modules listed below:
1. How to build a bigger list…Faster!
Once the students understand how to generate traffic to their websites, they graduate to lead generation. The academy teaches the students how to turn all their new traffic into red-hot leads and "ready to buy" customers for their online businesses. The maximum the number of leads increase the chances of having customers and converting them into income.
2. YouTube Marketing Master Class
YouTube is rated as the second most popular search engines and no website trafficking is complete without marketing on YouTube. The academy offers about 150 videos, actions and cheats sheets that are designed for the purpose of making the business rank higher on both Google and YouTube.
3. SEO Optimization
No marketing strategy is every complete without proper SEO, as it plays a major role in generating leads to the business. The academy tells the users about the proper selection of keywords, how to generate high-quality links, size up the competition and make the website rank the highest Google search engine.
4. Turning Your Leads into Customers…And Money
With the help of this program the generated traffic will be taken to a capture page and an e-mail list on that page will be shown to the user. Once the users hits the substantial amount of subscribers on the list, e-mails relating to business products and affiliates can be sent, that will indirectly yield commission.
5. Dirt-cheap Paid Traffic
If you were thinking that paid traffic is risky and expensive- reality it, it can be. Nevertheless, the academy has been driving leads for less that most of the people who generate clicks. How is that possible? They have generated pay per click networks to negotiate clicks as low as $0.05.
How to leverage the viral marketing power of social media to build your Brand or Business? Social Media is one of the most common means to connect with family, friends and acquaintances. Most of the consumers tend to believe that the information posted on social media is authentic and testified by the people added in their list, which is one of the reasons why the sharing chain grows and goes viral in a few minutes. Websites like Facebook, Twitter, Instagram, Pinterest, and Google+ are a great way to target audiences.
Plus, much, much more!
The name says it all "The Traffic and Leads Training Academy" is one of the most effective ways to enhance an online business by offering insightful knowledge on generating traffic and leads to the business. The course is simple, and even people with limited knowledge will gain from it, as the steps are explained in detail.
Another advantage of this training would be that it puts all focus on generating maximum traffic. Many people may have complained that it has not worked for them, which is probably because they did not follow all the mentioned steps. The training however, needs to be continuous as you will be updated with all the latest marketing strategy skills.

BP Boosts 2030 Energy-Use Estimate, Cuts 2015 Renewable Forecast
Jan. 18 (Bloomberg) -- BP Plc raised its estimate of global energy demand in 2030, while cutting its forecast for renewable power consumption in 2015 by 3.6 percent.
World energy demand will jump 39 percent in the next 20 years, with the expansion coming almost entirely from developing nations, to 16.63 billion metric tons of oil equivalent, the London-based company said in its Energy Outlook 2030 report. That's 1.2 percent higher than last year's estimate of 16.43 billion tons.
Oil, the world's leading fuel today, will lose market share, BP said. Still, demand for hydrocarbon liquids will rise 18 percent to 103 million barrels per day compared with 2010.
Renewable-energy consumption will be the equivalent of 264 million tons in 2015, a lower forecast because of reduced use mainly in North America, according to the BP data.
The outlook for demand shows the world needs open, competitive markets to satisfy demand at low cost and provide secure supplies, Bob Dudley, BP chief executive, said in a statement. "It shows there are things we can't change, like the underlying drivers of energy demand, and things we can change, like the way we satisfy that demand."
The growth of so-called unconventional energy supply, including U.S. shale fuel, Canadian oil sands and Brazilian deep-water fields, will help rich nations become almost totally energy self-sufficient by 2030, BP said. The rest of the world, particularly Asia, will depend increasingly on the Middle East for its growing oil requirements, it said.
Emissions May Peak
"Improvements in fuel efficiency, including hybridization of vehicles, will partly offset continued strong growth in vehicle sales in emerging markets," the company said.
Global carbon dioxide emissions will rise by about 28 percent, slower than the 39 percent growth in energy demand, according to the report.
A year ago, BP said emissions would advance 27 percent through 2030. The company said increased use of renewables would slow the pace of emissions output. "If more aggressive policies than currently envisioned are introduced, global CO2 emissions could begin to decline by 2030," it said.
"One thing which is striking to me is until about three years ago, when I would give presentations, two out of three questions were about climate change," BP's chief economist Christof Ruehl said at a presentation in London today. "Now, almost nobody raises them anymore, which to me reflects a sense of frustration."
Imports to Rise
Use of renewable energy including biofuels will increase at more than 8 percent a year in the period, outstripping the 2-percent pace of gas, the fastest growing fossil fuel, BP said.
By 2030, nations buying energy from other countries will need to import 40 percent more than they do today, the oil producer said. "In North America, efforts to reduce dependence on foreign supplies should show impressive results in the next couple of decades," it said.
Supply growth from biofuels as well as unconventional oil and gas will reverse North America's energy deficit and turn it into a "small surplus" by 2030, it said.
In contrast, Europe's energy deficit will remain at current levels for oil and coal, but will increase by some two thirds for natural gas, supplied by liquefied natural gas and pipelines from the former Soviet Union, BP said.
China's energy deficit across all fuels will widen by more than a factor of five and India's, mainly of oil and coal, will more than double in the period to 2030, it said.

Debian 3.0 / NVidia 2960
I've recently installed Debian 3.0 and I'm now trying ot get the 3d Accellerated NVidia drivers to install. I downloaded the tarballs, extracted them, and when I try to "make" inside the NVIDIA_kernel folder, I get a "nv.c:22: linux/modversions.h: No such file or directory" message. Before when I got this, I tried installing the kernel sources. This fixed this error, but brought up another. (I reinstalled last night.) I'm wondering if there is a way to get this to work hopefully without recompiling my kernel. Thanks in advance for help.
Find out what kernel version you are using, using: uname -r.
Then download the kernel headers: apt-get install kernel-headers-(kernel version)
Then in the end make a symlink /usr/src/linux pointing to /usr/src/kernel-headers-(kernel-version) after that compile the module and it will work fine.
Im using kernel 2.4.18 I installed the kernel source. Is the kernel source different then the kernel headers?
Yep, big difference
The kernel source package is the linux kernel sources for your distribution, AND the precompiled binaries for your kernel
What this does is that when you go to compile a linux hardware driver, it uses those binaries to correctly build your driver for your specific kernel.
The headers on the other hand are just a collection of *.h files that are also needed to compile drivers. Those header files give information to the compiler when compiling your binaries.
So yeah, make sure you have both installed on your system, and that the package version of both the kernel sources and headers are the same as your kernel version.
I'm getting the same error now as I did last time (after I recompiled my kernel last time). I installed the headers, and it found the file it was missing before. But now I get:
depmod: *** Unresolved symbols in /lib/modules/2.2.18-bf2.4/kernel/drivers/video/NVdriver
make: *** [package-install] Error 1
Wooooo... hold on a second... you seem to have another kernel (2.2.18-bf2.4) running. Are you sure you're running 2.4.18 here? check to see in lilo.conf if you're booting into a 2.4.18 image, and not an old 2.2.18 kernel.
The Nvidia drivers are built using the 2.4.18 headers and sources, but then you're trying to install them to the running kernel, which is a much older series.
I think that what's happening is that you are running a 2.2.18 kernel, but you've got the kernel-sources and headers for a 2.4.x kernel, so it's not building properly.
Check out your lilo.conf file, and post it if necessary, to find out which kernel you're running!
- Fred
er, no... sorry, I made a typo.
I'm positive I'm running 2.4.18 (the bf version)
Ok, I finally got it! Thank you all for trying to help! :)
Just out of curiosity...
Could you let us all know how you fixed it... it could help any one else searching for answers on this forum :).
Thanks and Good Luck,
Fred Hernandez
I installed the kernel headers for my kernel (apt-get install kernel-headers-2.4.18-bf2.4) and then made a symlink to them in /usr/src (ln -s /usr/src/kernel-headers-2.4.18-bf2.4 /usr/src/linux)

I got my note in December 2011. Now I get maybe 1.5 hours of battery life of on screen time. That's with stock battery and two other hyperion batteries.
Can someone explain if that is just batteries getting old or is it the ROM?

Recent Little Bitterroot Lake reviews
"We spent a week here the summer of 2013 and we were lucky enough to rent this beautiful cabin for another week this summer. The photos accurately reflect the interior and exterior of the property. We love the location as we have relatives with summer cabins on the same side of Bitteroot Lake. In fact within walking distance of this one. The owners of this cabin are very kind and helpful. We did a day trip to Whitefish but didn't have enough time there. Maybe next year we'll do it again. We always visit McGregar Lake Lodge for "happy hour," as well as the Marion Bar and Grille. Also, about 16 of us (our local Kalispell cousins and their family's) went to Moose's Saloon in Kalispell for pizza and beer. It's another "must do when we're there." We don't know the dates of our annual Montana vacation for next summer, but we're hoping this cabin will still be available for rental."Guest: Mel & Nancy Date of Stay: August 2014 Review Submitted: August 19, 2014View listing

CHARLESTOWN — Megan Moynihan and Andrew Baer are developing strategies for designing buildings that can better withstand the threats posed by climate change.
Moynihan, an architect, and Baer, a project manager, are a husband and wife team who moved to Charlestown from Manhattan to live in Baer's family summer house on a nearby salt pond. They co-founded the Oyster Works design firm in 2008, and have since been recognized for projects such as the Charlestown Wine and Spirits package store on Old Post Road, with its geothermal heating and cooling system and other energy-saving features.
In the small, open space inside a building on Old Post Road that was once Charlestown's one-room school house, the couple designs and builds residential and commercial buildings that are not only environmentally sustainable, but produce real savings in operating and maintenance costs. Moynihan and Baer call their approach "sensibly green."
"We want the measures that are taken to improve energy efficiency to provide a return on investment," Baer said.
Models of several proposed buildings sit on tables throughout the room. One is a daycare center and another is the new home of the Tomaquag Museum, the location of which has yet to be determined. There are also a couple of houses. One, to be built in a zone prone to storm surge, is elevated far off the ground.
"The top of the first floor is 19 feet above the base flood elevation," Moynihan said, noting that with municipal zoning regulations limiting the height of the building to 35 feet, designing this home was a challenge.
"How do you make a two story building look nice and still look beautiful in the context of all these pitched and gables roofs, when, as you can see, they don't have height to have a two story building and a gabled roof," she said.
In addition to incorporating more conventional mitigation measures such as elevating buildings off the ground, Moynihan and Baer also focus their attention on a lesser-known but equally important measure: helping water-soaked buildings breathe.
Problems occur during heavy rainstorms, when water soaks a building, but is prevented from running out. To make matters worse, building materials such as paper-backed sheet rock encourage the growth of mold, a common and dangerous problem that can cost thousands to remove.
"What we're really looking a lot at is how you can build with materials that when they do get wet, they can dry out without creating either structural damage or unhealthy conditions in a house, which we see a lot," Baer said.
Believing that trying to completely waterproof a building is futile, Oyster Works uses a technique called a "rain screen system," a breathing wall that lessens the damage from water entering a building by giving it some place to go back out.
"It's going to get through. It's a simple fact. The force of the rain, the capillary action, the pressure differential is going to pull water into the building," Baer said. "A rain screen system basically recognizes that, and creates a cavity behind the siding, before the wall, so that when the water gets in, it drains out… It's something that we feel is important, so we're incorporating this in all the buildings that we're doing around here."
Oyster Works also uses landscape architecture techniques that improve storm water drainage and help prevent erosion.
"I think how we deal with the landscape can really help mitigate the damage caused by climate change, especially with rising sea levels and these catastrophic storms," Baer said. "Where we see an opportunity to do that, we really embrace it. It's cost-effective over the long term, because you're not constantly battling having your shoreline disappear."
At the new YMCA sailing center at Camp Fuller in South Kingstown, the firm will restore the badly-eroded shoreline using plants such as native grasses to help stabilize it.
"It's not simply decorative, but it's meant to be restorative in that we will, over time, get rid of the invasive species, bring back native non-invasive species and stop the erosion," Baer said. "This will help stabilize the shoreline, and by controlling the storm water, we will again be stabilizing the shoreline, because we will be reducing the runoff."
Moynihan noted that the addition of designated pathways would reduce foot traffic in other erosion-prone areas.
"We've connected the buildings with a series of either wooden or gravel pathways that will keep campers more on the path and less on the ground surrounding it, so less erosion," she said.
The sailing center has been elevated to nearly 14 feet above base flood elevation. Also incorporated in the design are foundations that will allow flood waters to pass underneath without hitting and damaging the buildings. Construction is expected to begin in the fall.
Moynihan and Baer traveled to Florida and New Orleans to see how those flood-prone areas had modified their building codes and practices to produce buildings that would better withstand storms and flooding. They have incorporated many of those building practices into their Rhode Island projects, all of which are now designed with climate change in mind.
"We understand there's the chronic effects of sea level rise, then there's the effects of the catastrophic storms, so we get it," Baer said.

you slip 2 stitches from the left needle over to the right as if you are going to knit them. Then, take your left needle going in through the 2nd stitch knit the 2 stitches together. It is used for a decrease. Hope this helps.

Extended Deadline:
June 12, 2105 CLOSED
Winning art will be featured in North Light Books' hardbound showcase of the best in contemporary drawing. From quick contour sketches to carefully rendered drawings with a full range of values, North Light Books will showcase the best of the best in a variety of styles and subjects. The theme of Strokes of Genius 8 is Expressive Texture.
Artwork Eligibility
In drawing, the diverse range of available drawing materials, coupled with techniques as varied as artists themselves, adds up to almost endless possibilities for textural elements. These include replicating natural or man-made textures, creating imagined textures or trying to interpret emotions in a way that includes texture. All of these and more are valid interpretations of our theme Expressive Texture.
Some words that can define texture are surface quality, feel, grain, character, finish,weave, personality, nature, makeup and appearance. We will be looking for excellence and originality, as well as a variety of styles and subjects. If selected, you will be asked to write about texture in your drawing: how you created it, what it represents to you, how it works with your overall composition, or the like. Artwork can be in any dry medium that would be traditionally considered drawing. This includes—but is not necessarily limited to—pencil, charcoal, Conté crayon, pen and ink, scratchboard, silverpoint, colored pencil, pastel and even some wet paint mediums if used in a linear or sketchy manner. Final judgment on whether a work of art fits into the "drawing" category will be determined by the editors.
A range of mediums will be included. At least 50% of the book will be black-and-white artwork.

41 year old man | Hancock Park, CA, USA | Seeking women 28-38 within 500 miles of Koreatown, CA
My homage to all the women with warm heart, strong will and open mind.
I'm a hard worker who will do all that is necessary to provide my family with their needs. I consider myself as an honest and reliable man and always try to improve myself and my surroundings, so honesty is something that I value highly. I love to share my free time cooking at home with family and my desire is to be a good and responsible father and husband, if I find that special person. Spending money unwisely is not something that I'm big fan of because I know how hard a person need to work to earn that. I don't have any specific ideal woman because I strongly believe that every woman is beautiful in their own different ways.

A group of mining investors including an envoy were on Wednesday denied access to the limestone-rich Ngaie Hill in Kyuso district, Kitui county.
A group of youth who were said to be armed with machetes and sticks used thorny bushes to block the convoy's way.
The group was driving in a car with private registration plates.
Mike Muli who was part of the team, the group said was visiting a 100-acre plot whose owner Muithya Musyoka, was willing to sell at Sh300,000 an acre.
"Since Musyoka land is within the limestone rich area, we were surprised when our way was blocked by youths who were armed with pangas and sticks. We had no choice but to turn back," he said.
He said the team that included a Nairobi lawyer, did not protest the residents' action.
Kyuso deputy county commissioner Peter Maina said he was aware Ngaie residents sent away mineral prospectors who had attempted to enter the limestone area unannounced.
He however denied knowledge of their identities.
"I do not have a detailed account of what exactly happened. I was not even aware of any ambassador coming to my area," Maina said on the phone yesterday.

Overview Of Nike Air Jordan Shoes
The Nike Air Jordan footwear are named after the famous athlete. Production began in 1984 when an endorsement deal was signed with the basketball player. They are generally classified by their models and releases. The Originals, Retros, Retro are the most common models.
The Air Jordan 1 footwear were the first to hit the marketplace. Unlike their counterparts at the time which were mostly white, these had a distinct, bold, red and black styling. As a result, they were banned from the NBA, attracting fines running up to four figures whenever they were worn inside a game. . The controversy generated fuelled the hype which made the shoes the common household name that they now are.
The familiar jump-man logo that is certainly currently featured on the line-up sport was adopted after the 1986-87 slam dunk competition. The lineup was also revamped at the release of the Air Jordan III. The design featured a basketball shoe using a three-quarter cut. They were also made of high good quality materials which were lighter than conventional ones. This non-traditional approach produced the footwear skyrocket in popularity.
Until late 1997, the shoes were part in the larger Nike family. This changed when the enterprise unveiled a brand new advertising and marketing plan which saw the lineup break away to grow to be a sub-brand on its own. This was marked by the release from the AJ XIII, AJ Team and AJ trainers. From this point onwards, the footwear dropped the name of its parent corporation as well as the Swoosh logo.
Some with the most current releases include things like the AJ 7 retro. This model functions polytutherane-coated leather which is fast-drying. It protects the surface and gives it a longer lifespan while maintaining the new-leather shine. You'll find perforations throughout the surface to provide breathability.

F800GS: rebuild top end
Well, bad luck I guess.. after just over 80'000 km my engine's started to belch a big white smoke, and eats oil like there's no tomorrow. Turns out compression on one cylinder is dead. The ever helpful (sarcasm included) BMW rep tell me I should repair the whole top end, replace pistons, rods, all valves, etc.. Sure, easy for them. But: Big job = big $ - a no go for me right now.
So I'm willing to open up the beast and have a look at the internals, and rebuild what needs to be rebuilt. E.g., if it's just the rings that broke but the pistons are clean, than why replace them, right ? so I've got a few questions for you:
- who's done this before, any major issue ? special tooling ? reports ? I'm not a great wrench but I can get help.
- isn't 80k a bit early for that kind of issue ? it's just less than 3 years old (a 2010 model). Granted I've brought it all around Africa, but that was a lot of long stretches at moderate speed.. Ok, I guess it could happen at any time. I should be happy it's happened at home and not in the middle of Congo :wink:
- what parts would you repair anyway once the engine's open, knowing the mileage ?
PS: can somebody share a copy of the factory repair DVD to get me a head start ?
Big Can o Worms
Well, sorry bout yer luck. At least you had a good time with it first.
Where are you located? This will help with getting help. If you were my neighbour I'd work for beer.
Of course the Dealer will recommend everything. Lets not call 911 when you may just have a boo boo. The way to troubleshoot the problem is to pressurize the bad cylinder at top centre of it's compression stroke with shop air pressure. Bike in first gear with rear brake full on. Now where is the air going? Out the exhaust? Bad exh valve. Into the airbox? Bad int valve. Into the crankcase? Bad rings. Into the radiator? Bad head gasket. Etc.
Sounds like a head gasket to me. There was another guy here with the same problem but under warranty. He was in SA travelling I believe. Got a new head gasket.
There's no point removing the engine until you properly diagnose it first. Then, evaluate the damage step by step as you remove parts. Stop disassembling when you find the smoking gun. Look in the valve adjustment threads for detailed information on disassembly. Paying for the Repair CD would be worthwhile for a mechanic friend to browse the night before.
There was also a near new engine for sale in the Flea Market I think went unsold. It was a 650 twin but over 90% of the parts are the same. You could throw it in "as is" or swap the cams over. A detailed look in the parts fiche would tell you the differences. http://www.ascycles.com/Illustrated_...catname=Engine
It would be cheaper and faster this way. Then sell or repair the blown engine.
You have options. Troubleshoot further before shooting the horse. :D
I've rebuilt mine...
PM sent
Thanks for the tips. I'm based in Southern France so yeah, any help is welcome. Beer is aplenty..
I've 'found' the factory repair manual, it helps. Gee, taking apart all these connectors is a chore. On my '84 Tenere there were just a couple of those to undo and that was it :wink:
Now I need to find an anchor point to lift the frame, and a way to hold the engine in place once it's off.
I'll keep you posted on how it goes.
Asianrider, my cam chain thread will get you through engine removal.
The top end will need someone else to assist but but once you can get the engine on a bench you will be 80% there. Granted the last 20% is significant, but the labor should be straight forward.
Good luck!
Looks like you have plenty if help with disassembly, so instead I will posit a guess at what's wrong. Eating oil and lots of smoke. Piston LAN fracture, with likely subsequent bore scoring.
Hope not but its what I've most commonly seen
Just my .02, but if I have an engine torn down, I'm going to put all new stuff in. If you're doing it yourself, then the cost difference shouldn't be too great just freshen it all up.
Damage assessment
Hi all,
eventually I got it all in pieces. To cut a long story short here's the culprit :
No surprise here. Unfortunately the broken ring pieces have slightly scratched the cylinder surface :cry
I have no idea how bad it is, really. To the touch it doesn't feel like much but I'd need a specialist to know more. I've called BMW to know what they would do but over here they're clueless (or they don't like people doing their own mechanics, whichever. Maybe both). For sure they don't carry oversize pistons so I guess the cylinders aren't supposed to be rebored ?
So has anybody direct experience with this, how does one fix the cylinder surface ?
Hi Laurent,
You should be able to get the cylinder replated with Nikasil or a similar coating to get a uniform surface in the bore again.
If anything else is damaged beyond repair I have lots of used parts in very good condition from a F650GS twin - everything except the camshafts is exactly the same as the F800GS.
thanks for the tip. I'm looking for some information on who could do that over here in France. But I'm not sure I understand, is the nickasil plating going to "fill" the scratches ?
One thing for sure, BMW isn't selling any oversize piston. How would they fix it ? throw the whole engine away ? (sorry but as usual the BMW retailers here are extremely unsupportive).
I would imagine that in Europe, you will be able to procure replacement cylinder barrels (from a used or crashed bike) more cheaply than you will be able to repair your damaged part.

Not bad for the first few tries. But you need to get back to the basics. There are problems with your digital painting that have nothing to do with digital painting. Like the light is all over the place -- the plants and leaves show that the light is coming from behind the frog but then the front of it is all lit up, and from different directions at that. Then you're just guessing at things like colour and texture, especially on the tree trunks. Going by your blog you take a lot of photographs. So why don't you use them as reference? Go and photograph the trees in your area and see what the bark looks like under different lighting conditions.

Hi, thank you very much for watching and commenting my paint.
You're right, the lights are all wrong my big mistake was starting from a photo (the frog is copied from a picture) and not taking care about the lights!
I'll try to redo the entire painting copying colors and lights. And I'll take some pictures of trees


text: officer involved shooting Cincinnati Mourns Officer Kim: "Your Dad Was The Good Guy; The Hero Of This City" By Howard Wilkinson • Jun 26, 2015 Glenn Hartong / Pool Photographer A city overwhelmed by grief but inspired by his service and courage came together Friday to lay fallen Police Officer Sonny Kim to rest. The funeral service for the 27-year veteran of the Cincinnati Police Department drew about 7,000 people - including hundreds of police officers from around the country - to the Cintas Center on the Xavier University campus to remember a loving husband and father who took on a dangerous job that, in the end, cost him his life. Details of officer-involved shooting emerge By Ann Thompson • Mar 2, 2015 Ann Thompson / WVXU The Cincinnati Police investigation of an officer-involved shooting in East Price Hill continues. Detectives are trying to trace where Christian Jackson got the shotgun he allegedly pointed at officers. They are also enhancing the police video shot at the scene. At a Monday afternoon news conference police detailed the chronology of events leading up to the shooting on Fairbanks Avenue, near Warsaw, after midnight. Chronology of events: Body cam appears to corroborate Cincinnati Police shooting story By Ann Thompson • Sep 15, 2014 Ann Thompson / WVXU Cincinnati Police Officers, in the midst of a 30-day trial for body cameras, recorded an officer involved fatal shooting Sunday, helping to back up the story told by police and witnesses. At about 6:45 p.m. Sunday officers went to 379 Rosemont Avenue in West Price Hill for a report of shots fired. That's where they found 37-year old Christopher Mitchell with a gun to his head. Reportedly he had threatened suicide earlier in the day and pulled the trigger of another gun he held to his head, but it didn't go off. Friends say he had a history of depression and substance abuse. Cincinnati Police release details about fatal officer involved shooting By Jay Hanselman • Jul 25, 2013 Cincinnati Police Department Three separate investigations are underway after Cincinnati police officers were involved in a deadly shooting incident Wednesday afternoon in Clifton. The situation started with a 911 call from a mental health care provider. The caller requested officers respond to Clifton and Ludlow Avenues for a person with mental health issues who had a gun.Interim Police Chief Paul Humphries said 5 officers eventually encountered 32-year-old Roger Ramundo on the back deck of Arlin's Bar and Restaurant on Ludlow near Clifton.

So innovative and luxurious, how do you categorize the 400? Express Cruiser won't do because no other 42-footer offers a coupe top, cockpit air conditioning or a hydraulic swim platform. Conversely, there isn't a yacht afloat that has the sporty style and incredible appointments accented throughout the 400 Premiere. Think of the 400 as old-world craftsmanship wrapped in its most modern form. From the incredible helm electronics, to the televisions, to the sound system, every component is beyond state-of-the-art. At the helm, prepare to discover the difference that makes the 400 Premiere like no other. Powered by a revolutionary IPS propulsion system, this wide beam Sport Yacht maneuvers as easily as our 20-foot bowriders. With it's intuitive Joystick control, even the most dicey docking situations are aim and go. When evening arrives, the excitement only increases with a full LED lighting system that sets the mood for dockside parties. In the cabin, we take full advantage of the possibilities our Wide Tech hull design unveils. Full length hull windows and overhead skylights provide a window to the world and allow natural light to come in.
The heartbeat of the 400 is luxury. In every way. Just think of the things you can do at the mere flip of a switch: adjust the bucket seats, fold out the transom seat or retract the island berth. Options that work with fingertip control include a waterproof flatscreen TV in the galley, the sunroof and the swim platform. The Premiere's coupe design gives you climate control in the cockpit and the cabin. You never have to contend with canvas as you enjoy the quietest, most quality ride on the water today. Stainless steel steps lead to the finest engine room in this class. Brilliant white finished gelcoat creates a clean environment. Gray water is routed through a sump in the engine compartment, not under the cabin, minimizing the need for thru-hull fittings on the hull side.
Handcrafted real wood cabinets and blinds are a cut above. All of the raised door panels and frames are walnut. Even the switch plates and outlets have a satin nickel finish. To keep you tuned in the cabin features an LG 1000 watt home theatre system. Cedar lined clothes closets can be found in both the forward and mid staterooms. Overhead LED lighting is controlled with a dimmer switch and even the floor storage areas are illuminated. A central vacuum system and a leather salon sofa are optional. Even the wooden cabin entry steps have stainless steel supports. Storage space never ends and the Premiere logo is etched into the beveled mirrored headboard. If your travels take you to faraway ports, high definition satellite television can be beamed in as optional equipment.
