A Perth-based international adviser has survived months of extreme danger to try to rescue more than 270 schoolgirls kidnapped by terrorist group Boko Haram in Nigeria.
Stephen Davis, 63, has returned from a four-month sojourn with rare footage of the intense fighting in Nigeria's north-east, as Boko Haram stepped up efforts to establish an Islamic state.
When news broke about the girls' kidnapping, Dr Davis, who had recently moved to Perth from London, decided he could not sit on his hands.
However, the former adviser to two Nigerian presidents said he has realised the only way to stop the kidnappings is to stop the sponsors of Boko Haram.

Victoria has banned religious organisations from running prayer groups, handing out Bibles and delivering other unauthorised religious information sessions in state schools during school hours.
The directive has been issued by the Education Department under recent changes to the delivery of Special Religious Instruction (SRI) to students in public schools.
A government spokeswoman said the directive only affected activities that were run by unaccredited teachers or religious groups.

Recently, I've received several emails from chiropractors wondering how they can successfully market their chiropractic practice online.
One of the first questions I ask is do you have a blog.
Because like I've said many times before, your chiropractic blog SHOULD always be the hub of all your online marketing endeavors.
Having lead-generating landing pages with automated systems for email campaigns isn't enough for sustained growth.
Yes, it'll produce short-term gains but the real power lies in a long-term commitment centered around building your brand online through a blog.

How Manufacturers Can Create an Effective Brand NewsroomPosted by Casey Newman
While the words "brand newsroom" might conjure images of reporters furiously typing away to meet deadlines, today's brand newsrooms are anything but. They house an organization's publishing efforts and may be staffed by former journalists, marketing or PR folks. They may have a large staff or just a few people on hand. In fact, each newsroom will be staffed differently depending on a company's resources, size and priorities.
And brand newsrooms aren't just a place for press releases that inform the media anymore. The types of content within them can be used to expand on other content like whitepapers, webinars and tipsheets. And, perhaps most importantly, brand newsrooms have evolved into content hubs used to inform, engage and sometimes even entertain customers and prospects, who, with the internet, have direct access to the information.
So why should your manufacturing company create one? Having a brand newsroom in place allows your brand to connect with customers like never before by creating and publishing timely and original content.

Jennifer is human proof that women today may not be more monogamous than men. Since her lover moved away, she's been looking for a new sexual partner through an online dating service for spouses who want to fool around.
That's what keeps Ricci in a business that is growing.
When it comes to questions about sex during pregnancy, there are as many right and wrong answers as there are pregnant couples. What feels right for one couple may not work for another.
Some say sex during the second trimester is great.
"They say your blood is heavier down there, so I would recommend it for you during pregnancy. It might be better than before," one woman said.
But a dad-to-be sadly disagreed. "The myth for me was that sex would be great during pregnancy. That really didn't happen," he said.
But there is one old wives' tale about sex during pregnancy that ABC News' Dr. Timothy Johnson thought had been debunked for good: the idea that sex during pregnancy could harm the fetus.
It turns out 40 percent do have that fear, according to a poll by BabyCenter.com, the No. 1 Web site for expectant parents.
"I don't know that people are walking around on the streets saying, 'I'm concerned about this,' but when they're in their private moments, and they're faced with the situation in their home, I think they are really concerned," said Linda Murray, BabyCenter.com's executive director.
Some 80 percent of the people who answered the poll thought about the baby in some way when they were having sex.
"Some of them felt like maybe the baby could feel them or see them in some way," Murray said.
And some were very worried about physically hurting the baby, according to Murray.
Dr. Jacques Moritz, chief of gynecology at New York City's St. Luke's-Roosevelt Hospitals, gave us the bottom line about sex during pregnancy.
"There are some medical conditions that might preclude sex. But if your doctor gives you the green light and you feel like it, go ahead," Moritz said.
The biggest surprise in the BabyCenter.com poll: It's dads who say no to pregnancy sex -- 50 percent more than moms.
There's another pregnancy-related myth, that sex at the end of pregnancy can bring on labor. Some 50 percent of the couples in the BabyCenter poll admitted they had tried it. It turns out it may work. Hormones found in semen and hormones released by the uterus may stimulate labor when a woman is ready to deliver. At the very least -- it can't hurt.
"If you're waiting around and you have nothing else to do, you might as well have some fun," said Murray. "You're certainly not going to have sex for the next few weeks."
America is a country obsessed with size. From big buildings to big cars to big muscles, Hollywood has shown us that all American males want to measure up -- and that includes measuring up "south of the border," so to speak.
"Men have been assured that size doesn't matter, women have been told that they only have feeling in the first two inches of their vagina," said Joy Davidson, a clinical psychologist and sex therapist.
But according to Davidson, size DOES matter. "We've all been sold a bill of goods about sex and now it's time to tell the truth," she said.
According to Davidson, the notion that size doesn't matter ignores the anatomical facts. "The reason size matters is very simply that women do have nerve endings deep inside the vagina," she said.

Re: Advice/discussion - GTX 260
My 8800gts is the G80 - 640mb version. Well I did a lot of googling and came across a website that said you should try overclocking the card slightly if you think your temps are high. So I tried that using EVGA precision, leaving the fan on 40% default and was surprised that it actually worked, even my idle temps have dropped from 47c to 42c. I played crysis and the highest it went was 75c which is an improvement. Weird though as I would of thought oc would make the temps go up not down.
Has anyone with a GTX260 got Graw 2. If so what fps are you getting at 1280x1024 on the first level. I maxed everything out at a res of 1280x1024 with physx on extreme and I was getting between 79-40, but during the fire fights it was dropping down to 26 and causing stuttering. I would of thought the GTX260 could handle this game no problem.
I guess I was expecting a bigger performance leap over my 8800gts on every game, but some games don't seem that much better. Rainbow Six Vegas is no better than my 8800. During the casino level when you enter the man room the FPS drops to 26fps in places. It did the same on my 8800. Maybe this game is just badly optimised, it certainly seems that way.

Read Poems by
Roy Jerden
Midway upon the journey of our life
I found myself within a forest dark,
For the straightforward pathway had been lost.
Dante Alighieri -"The Divine Comedy, Inferno, Canto I"
Oh seed of Dante, does thy path
in mid-life's turning gone astray
upon a sylvan darkness hath
to tread a rut with feet of clay?
Wast thou that youth of virtue pure
who bargained not with Judgment Day
untempered green convictions sure
before life's tests induced decay?
Did compromise and circumstance
thy dreams of glory put away
to promise them a second chance
if thou but wouldst concede delay?
Rejoice upon thy wisdom learned!
With youth's illusions purged away
there's still a kingdom to be earned.
Persist, persist, and find the way!
(Iambic tetrameter)

Okay, maybe we didn't have everything explained to us crystal clear because we were trying to cover a large breadth of information. I still think I benefited from learning how to think scientifically.
Though, I don't think the concepts of evolution and creation are incompatible either. Personally, I don't know EXACTLY how God created the earth and all its inhabitants and I don't think there is anyone on this earth that knows exactly how it was done. I'm not ruling out anything...perhaps in fear of denying the beautiful harmonies observed in nature that are discovered by science, but created by God.
I see science as a pursuit of knowledge, truth, and intellectual enlightenment. However, in my opinion, truth and knowledge can not be truly appreciated until it is illuminated by the fire of faith from within.
Yes, "science" has had some mistakes, but so has organized religion, simply because as long as fallible men are involved, so will the organization be fallible. <= That is why we need to follow our own faith experiments and discovery to confirm what we are taught with revelation and confirmation from God.

You speak my language!
Though I wouldn't say that's a cut and dry definition depending on the timing, contracts, current obligations and contingent liabilities. It depends on the instance. For example if you are using cost recovery you can't recognize a gain or profit until cash is collected in excess of the costs. In the instance of an installment sale don't recognize a gain or profit until cash is collected, in which case you recognize the cash collected minus the interest expense and apply an amount of the remaining cash to differed gain in a manner proportionate to your gross profit percentage. And don't get me started on the percent of completion method of recognizing revenue (profit). In some cases, depending on engineer estimates in the percent of completion method, one year you might have a "profit" on the project but the next year you have to recognize a loss in excess of your profit from the prior year...which makes you wonder if you really had a profit anyway because your assumptions were wrong.

I think this piece is looks great, I'm always a sucker for a good Street Fighter painting.
A couple things look like they could use some a bit of tweaking. I think that the claw should stick out at more of a right angle to the hand instead of it pointing upwards. It might help to straighten out the hairline on the reflection of Vega too, right now it's at kind of a slant. it also looks like the metal around the mirror could use a bit more contrast, sometimes you can achieve this just by using the dodge tool in photoshop on the highlights. Lastly, the light appears to be coming from slightly behind Vega in the mirror while the Vega without the mask seems to be strongly lit from the front.
Overall though, I really like this pic and it does a lot right. Shoryuken!

Hey there! I agree with the above post, also the right arm that is being shadowed by the left arm with the claw, it seems a little flat as there is not alot of tonal range near the shoulder and muscles.
Hope this helps

hey there, Looking great! I also noticed that the claws are at a strange angle, the should follow the line of his arm.
Also I noticed a chandelier above Vega in the mirror image and there is some nice yellow splash light on his traps and shoulders but there is none of that light on him while he's wearing the robe. The chandelier would still be above him on both sides of the mirror right? might be nice to include some of that splash light on the green robe as well... looking great though!

Love the painting in the background, smart way to bring in some of his story into the image. There are two things that bug me:
1. The claw is still at a strange angle; I think it would look sturdier if it was more in line with the highlight in his arm.
2. Is there any particular reason you went with green candle light?

CARLSBAD, Calif., Aug. 24 /PRNewswire/ -- Life Technologies Corporation (Nasdaq: LIFE), a provider of innovative life science solutions and SG Biofuels, Inc., a bioenergy crop company, today announced they have completed sequencing the Jatropha curcas genome to 100x coverage, using the SOLiD™ 4.0 System by Life Technologies. The sequence significantly accelerates the identification of key traits for the oilseed-producing crop and advances its development as a high yielding, low-cost source for next generation biofuel.
Working in strategic alliance with Life Technologies, SG Biofuels will use the sequence to generate a high quality Jatropha reference genome. The genome will be compared to sequences generated from SG Biofuels' germplasm library of more than 6,000 unique Jatropha genotypes – the largest and most diverse collection of Jatropha germplasm in the world – to identify molecular markers and trait genes to accelerate development of elite cultivars with vastly superior yields and profitability. This work will also advance the introduction of transgenic plants with further improved traits.
Jatropha curcas is a non-edible shrub that is native to Central America. Its seeds contain high amounts of oil that can be used for a variety of bio-based materials including feedstock substitutes for the diesel, petrochemical and jet fuel industries. It can be effectively grown on marginal lands that are considered undesirable for food crops, making it a viable option as a new biofuel.

2010, yes...others....no. To me, old cake mix wouldn't be worth bothering with. I love cake! :)
I'd toss the 2008 and 2009 ones and have a party with the 2010 one.
If anything, the Nov '10 one. The others, no way!
Enjoy the cake :-)

Most likely, they are still perfectly safe to use and eat. However, the leavening agents (baking soda, or baking powder) may be too old to be effective at this point, and your cake wont rise properly.
I'd use the Nov '10 one without hesitation, but I wouldn't waste the other ingredients to test older ones out.
Just thought about something. Usually the date stamp is the "sell by" date, not the expiration which gives you a little extra time. I imagine the worse that would happen is the cake won't fluff up like it should. That's what happened when my self-rising flour expired. The yeast just kinda stops working as well over time.

Yes, we eat expired food all the time. It usually lasts way past the dates.

I might use the 2010 but not the others. I think they are probably safe but won't bake properly because of the old ingredients...

From experiance..LOL. what goes bad in a cake mix.. is Something gets a rancid taste.. Takes much more then a few years. .The leavening agent still will work well. in a 08,09 mix..
We lived with my grandma for a while.. (she had dementia) I cooked up a cake and forgot to check date.. it was prob.. 15 years old and NASTY.. BUT you could smell it. Cake looked pretty.. but did not smell good.Rose really nice.. NO we did not eat it and neither did the dog..LOL
Things last a LONG time longer then expiration date.. remember they have to honor it if it goes bad before that date.. So they want to make sure..A staple dry goods product over 5 years I think is Iffy..but as long as you cook it, and it smells good.. it probably is OK.

I will laugh until my sides turn red if blizzards new MMO is a sandbox and is a huge hit. First MMOs are for 'hardcore gamers only' and not casual gamers. Blizzard proves them wrong. Now its 'nobody wants to make a sandbox because casual gamers don't like it'... Prove them wrong Blizzard!!

I think that the OP predictions are also good. I think Titan will be announced 2013 but its possible they'll announce it late 2012.

WoW is not going anywhere... It will be around 2 decades from now, like EQ is. Hell EQ will be around 2 decades from now. :-) Might be free to play though, sometime before TItan is released!

And Star Wars: The OId Republic will own the year that is 2012 and will continue to be the one MMO to rule them all, The Chosen One. Plus there will be a new term called the TOR Killer, but one will not come for a long time. Yet there maybe one in the distant future. Maybe another Star Wars MMO or maybe the fabled Mass Effect MMO. Only time will tell. All this was foretold by the wise MMO Sages of old. The prophecy read that one day The Chosen One would come and will rule them all. And The Chosen One has come and The Chosen One was born on December 20th, 2011. Unto a virgin MMORPG developer named Bioware, who was without the sins of the Harlot MMORPG developer named Sony Online Entertainment. So it was written and so it has come to pass. Rejoice O' MMO Gamer, Rejoice. For we are now in a Golden Age of Online Interactive Entertainment. Oh Plus the prophecy as fortold that The Beast know as World of Warcraft will be cast in to the abyss in 2012, along with its evil creator named Blizzard aka Diablo himself. Freeing the poor WOW slaves from their bondage forever. Amen.
When we get back from where we are going, we will return to where we were. I know people there!

"I shall take your position into consideration"
All that follows are some random guy`s subjective opinions...so treat it that way. Its not supposed to be promoted as objective. Many ppl will disagree proly
1) SWTOR will be losing subs - the extent will determine if it goes F2P or not (my guess is not in 2012, but in 2013 for sure).
2) Secret world - There is not much known about this game yet and even though I would kinda like it to succeed, I am afraid that it will not become a major player on mmo field.
3) Diablo 3 - I expect success, I mean...its diablo, the game most of us have been waiting for for years now. Its from Blizzard, I dont really remember any major title from Blizz that failed. Also the beta reviews are more than positive. The release being in February is arguable...dont expect it to hit much later than that tho. Def not earlier
4) WoW - I am STILL an active player of WoW. However, I am really looking forward to leaving it for good once a new mmo that would be worth it hits the market. I hope it will be before the MoP since I personally do not consider the asian panda idea to be attractive. Also I do not see any major changes to the game itself. It will be like 5 new dungeons, 3 new raids, BGs, Arena, some pve games,...been there...done that...dont have the power to go through another expansion being entertained by the same stuff again.
5) GW2 - I agree that the gameplay is good, but I would personally consider this game to be obsolete even if it hit the market in 2011. I mean...I would expect the devs to do or at least try to do something revolutionary since the mmo community is bored being bombarded with the same stuff by every new mmo. In my opinion, it will not bring anything so spectacular to become a major mmo in the market. Its just...same stuff that we have seen before. Shouldnt this year be the year of transition between 2nd and 3rd generation of MMOs?The only thing that compensates for the lack of innovation is the fact that it will be basically F2P...so ye, nice new F2P game which, in my opinion, will not be able to compete with next gen P2P titles.
6) Titan - I expect we get some info on Titan in 2012. I also expect it to be a next gen mmo. If Blizzard wants to succeed...and by succeed I mean to create a successor of WoW that will become the new elephant in the mmo market, they have to bring something new, something amazing, something unprecedented.
7) Archeage - Now this game can be a big surprise of 2012. I was following some beta impressions and videos and read a lot about the content and the freedom given to the players. My personal feeling is that if it delivers all it includes in a way that can actually entertain people, it can easily beat all mmos like GW2, SWTOR, Rift, even Titan. At this point, it appears to be a next gen mmo.

But reality will be more like something e-sport/ladder kinda mmo me thinks.
They need something new to shine next to SC2 e-sports and wow pvp battlegrounds (hmm also e-sports).
They already showing (if you can listen closely in their interviews) that all their games (see also the upcomming D3) will include some form of e-sports.
I have nothing against this but it will always be TOO controlled by blizz......player content isnt under their controle and thereby will not happen.
So dont even think blizz will EVER make a sandbox.
My hopes are that Archeage will deliver some of the sandbox goods UO used to have.

Zenimax isn't actually developing an MMO, Interplay is. Interplay are the guys who first published Fallout in 1997 under Bethesda's banner. They just settled a law suit and its in question whether or not this game will come out. Makes #5 a 50:50

The thing that strikes you throughout the predictions is that they are so remarkably upbeat. MMO's just go from strength to strength each year. That would be so wonderful if it were not wrong.
10) Mobile MMO's are the latest in a long line of trends towards simplicity; they are on mobiles so they don't have the processing power. We saw what happened to MMO's when they started to be made for consoles as well as PC's, simplistic graphics, dodgy PC controls. I am not saying graphics have not improved, but they are improving at a console pace, not a PC pace. Worst of all though is the expansion of the player base. Consoles brought in loads of teenagers which made MMO's loose much of their maturity and finally be made for those less mature.
Now we have mobiles, wake up guys, what do you think is going to happen to MMO's now? What age group is on their mobile's all the time? What age group spends more money on throw away consumables than any other? MMO's will become even more the domain of the under 20's. But not only that, mobiles are not a gaming device, consoles are, MMO designers will do their best to be as inclusive of everyone who owns a mobile. The further influence of mobiles will be change the nature of what a MMO is, I really don't want to spend my MMO life looking after a farm.
9) Social media are taking over gaming, but that's not a good thing. Games were once made for gamers, now there is a shift to make them for Facepalm users and Twitless types. I do know gamers use these sites, maybe you do? But you are a minority there, the new games will move in the direction of the majority, business always goes where the money is.
8) I agree that there will be fusion between different MMO genres, but we have seen that before and it has not always been a resounding success. Here it's painted as if nothing can go wrong. We have already ended up with games that are a mish-mash of ideas pandering to everyone and satisfying no one long term. More of the same seems certain in the New Year.
7) The great hope is indie MMO's but MMO's started out as being rather 'indie' themselves. They were niche games made by newcomers as much as established gaming companies. Fifteen years later and they are totally corporate in outlook. How long before the indie companies are snapped up by the giants? EA, Sony, Times-Warner…there are some very big beasts out there who want a bite of every pie.
6 and 5) More hype on the way…yeah!
4) Breaking news…WoW will release a new expansion in 2012. This is wonderful surprise news for the MMO gaming community! Oh and more hype on the way!
3) More hype on the way…yeah!
2) More hype on the way…yeah!
1) The granddaddy of all Hype will begin as Blizzard announces their new MMO. More hype on the way…yeah!
In conclusion the 2012 MMO year will be one of little innovation, more easymode and the trend of MMO's to become designed for people who are not gamers will continue. Oh and one heck of a lot of hype. Yeah its going to be a real 'doozy'. :)

I would disagree with the conclusion. In my opinion, there is a revolution coming to the world of mmo. Devs realize that the traditional mmo`s will no longer attract enough players since we are all looking for a change, for something new. Declining WoW imo kind of proves that players are fed up with old, traditional ways of doing things. Consequently, little innovation would not really make enough profit. (Rift and SWTOR will fail because all they bring is the same old boredom)
I`d say that announcement of Titan (and maybe even ArcheAge) will bring a tremendous change to the MMO`s - so called NEXT GEN MMOs.

Nice one, but why not yet Reader's GOTY? Maybe because you cannot do EAWare SW:CRAP more advertising?
And, btw, still no innovation? Well, i still remain on F2P games. Call me when we should have a really innovative great game. Because grinding MMOs are boring, now and forever.

Power without perception is spiritually useless and of no true value
1. Anybody who believes SWTOR is going to go F2P this year I would like a wager. This is going to be the mmo that is going to win the most subs at the end of the year. Mark my words, no matter what you think of it, or what it needs it is going to win the most subs. Especially if they are on point with the expansions and new content patches.
2. TSW is going to set the standard for the niche AAA mmorpg. Yes Funcom messed up on the past on its mmos- before Ragnar was in charge. this guy being in charge of a mmo is a big big deal. The only reason this game is not going to be the high sub game is because its content is too high end intelligencia for the common mmorpg gamer, and I am glad its this way. I expect to see alot of whining posts about the game being boring by alot of the casuals or typical themepark crowd, or asking why the game doesn't have FFA pvp, and I am gong to smile because this is not the game for either one of those groups. This is the game for the old school PC gamers who enjoyed The Longest Journey and Dreamfall as well as games like Planescape:Torment. TSW is going to be the PC nerds mmo, and that is good in my eyes. It will have smaller sub numbers with a hardcore fanbase. Which is all that Funcom needs. Ragnar is not going to let his baby fail. I am willing to place a bet on that one. Any takers?
3. GW2 is seriously being overhyped by its fans, its also another mmorpg with the same tired old storyline the world vs the dragons- again. Haven't we seen this before? I mean hey I'm going to get this game because its B2P mainly but I honestly think that this and Copernicus and WoW being out at the same time is going to pretty much kill the Euro fantasy themepark mmorpg. If SOE- asses they are really make EQNEXT a sandbox they are going to clean house. The EURO fantasy AAA themepark is on its way out. Tired cliche storylines, tired cliche presentation of races is going to make this sub genre obsolete.
Zenimax IS making a TES mmorpg,and even if it has half the features its single player games have these other fantasy mmos are dead. Euro fantasy mmo developers really need to take a look at the stories they are providing- they are killing their own genre with their presentation and they need to leave the dragon thing along for a very very looong time. Golems, Demons, Vampires whatever, just please please stop it with all the dragons already, to a CASUAL mmo fan your game looks no different from WoW. Come up with a new big bad for once and leave all the typical ones alone, and please god some fresh new takes on races (how bout some damn evil elves for once eh? I mean you see them all the time in other gaming genres).
GW2 will be a good game, but it is not going to save the world and its not going to live to expectations because the expectations are too damn high right now and I will say it again, its PRESENTATION when it comes to world design (not gameplay features) does not set it apart enough for the casual mmo player. This is going to be a niche AAA mmo with alot of its box sales coming from the PVP crowd who brought the previous version, and those like myself who will buy it because its B2P and I do not see this game launching before TSW. I think its going to launch between June and September myself. I honestly think they blew it with the world design and the one thing that made GW ridiculously cool- its humans. By putting all the humans under one roof and basically one choice, they lost what makes them special. These guys really could have pushed their various human races in their advertising, because outside of fantasy nerds if you think Asuras or the plant elf race would be more popular than a seperate Canthan or Elonian race with their own starting areas then you are seriously mistaken. It was a mistake to focus on the non human races. The Charr is the only one worth mentioning, the rest are a bunch of tired fantasy cliches and the Asura is a bit to animeish for the typical western EURO fantasy gamer, yes I know you love it, but the average mmo player- esp casuals will not. Not having a focus on Cantha and Elona and letting them have their own starting areas from day one is a big big mistake. Seems like even in 2012 devs still have no idea of player race representation in their mmorpgs and how to cash in on this, and this is very very sad. If they focused on their various flavors of humans more and really plugged them they would be placed into a different category outside of WoW that B2P model would also reaaally help with this kind of focus. *Puts a niche AAA mmorpg stamp on this one.
4. Wildstar is not coming this year, but as more and more gets revealed about it its going to attract a very very interested fanbase. Personally I think this game if done as the devs say they are going to do it is going to set the new standard of the sandpark (themepark/sandbox) mmo. Which is going to be a damn good thing.
5. The rise of the Asian mmorpg in america- Archeage if picked up is going to also set some good standards, we wont see it till 2013 and it will never be the commercial hit that many think it should be, but it will also be a new entry in what I think will be another future mmorpg staple- the niche AAA mmorpg. I just hope that they can get the combat down right. Bad enough that they are going to have to deal with close minded racist americans who won't play an asian mmo because it looks "animeish'' *facepalms. Age of Wulin also looks promising with some of its features like your toon turning into an npc when you log off. Yes the game is gong to be niche, but it does have features that devs need to take notice on.
6. THQ is going to kill its own mmo with that damn two faction mess, especially with Planetside 2 coming out. I don't think these guys know what they have honestly. I want WAR 40k to do very well but I don't think its going to. Planetside 2 is going to strangle this game in the mmofps category because I have a funny feeling that THQ is not going to focus on the Warhammer fans more than they are going to focus on the fps fans.
7. Tera is going to be the fantasy DCUO with less subs, Lineage Eternal looks like its going to whoop the butt of Diablo 3, and GW2 will launch after TSW.
8. There will be one wildcard mmo announcement this year. I don't know what it is but I can feel it in my bones. Its going to be signififcant.

Design. The Backward Head design. The obverse is similar to the regular-issue 1839 gold eagles, with a rounded tip on the forward edge of the bust truncation and a pointed tip on the rear edge--but the entire head faces backward, right rather than left. Thirteen stars ring the rim, with date 1839 below. The reverse is from the regular-issue Seated Liberty die, Large Letters, of 1842-1853. Struck in copper with a reeded edge.
Commentary. Saul Teichman notes on USPatterns.com that he believes these are restrikes produced in the 1870s, and throws down the gauntlet challenging collectors to try to match the reverse die to a regular-issue proof. The present example weighs 174.3 grains according to the accompanying envelope, while Pollock notes that it weighs 172.0 grains--which we believe to be an error; see below.
Physical Description. Deep iridescent toning with emerald-green highlights predominates, against a shimmering, lustrous backdrop on surfaces that show almost no signs of contact for a coin of this vintage. A splendid, almost perfectly preserved pattern. NGC Census: one PR67 Brown (this coin). PCGS Population: one PR64 Brown, one PR65 Brown (10/08).
Census. Likely only three or four pieces exist. Tracing the pedigrees below was more than usually tortuous. As confirmation of our example's provenance, however, the Auction '81 cataloger noted that the weight was 174.3 grains, exactly the same weight as on the accompanying envelope, which also lists a provenance from King Farouk and Stack's.

UNIONDALE, NY - OCTOBER 21: Eric Staal #12 of the Carolina Hurricanes looks on against the New York Islanders on October 21, 2009 at Nassau Coliseum in Uniondale, New York. The Isles won the game 4-3 after a shoot out. (Photo by Jim McIsaac/Getty Images)
RALEIGH, N.C. -- Once Eric Staal and the Carolina Hurricanes got in a good offensive flow, they settled in to do what they do best. Staal's hat trick capped an offensive outburst for the Hurricanes in a 6-3 victory over the Buffalo Sabres on Thursday night at PNC Arena. "It felt a little better," Staal said. "I knew if I stayed with the game plan and we stayed with the game plan, we'd be rewarded." The Hurricanes, who managed a total of two goals across their first two games, scored four times in about a 13-minute span of the second period. Jeff Skinner scored two second-period goals as the Hurricanes won for the first time this season. Staal's empty-net goal with 1:28 left gave him his third tally. "Obviously we needed to be better (than the first two games)," Skinner said. "I think we learned. ... It's great to get that first (victory). You don't want to go too long without it." The Sabres (2-1), who were attempting to start a season with a 3-0 record for the fifth tim...

The idea of asking the Prime Minister to select a new Archbishop of Canterbury, as suggested by a former member of the Crown Nominations Commission yesterday, is absurd in both theory and practice. There was a time, not long ago, when the Prime Minister did do just that. But under a deal worked out between the Church and Downing Street, first with James Callaghan and later with Gordon Brown, the present convention is that the first name put forward by the Crown Nominations Committee is nodded straight in the direction of the Queen without any interference. The Church of England has the responsibility, for which it long asked, of selecting its own man. It cannot now abrogate that responsibility.

A Church of England vicar in Croydon this week persuaded half his congregation to join a Catholic order 500 yards up the road, explaining to his parishioners that the Anglican church was telling traditional worshippers to "bugger off".

The prospect of tax changes in next week's Budget is causing frantic manoeuvring within the Coalition. Leaks today suggest that Customs and Excise's study on tax revenues from the 50p top rate of income tax, due to be published next week, will show that the top rate on those making more than £150,000 brings in far less than hoped — hundreds of millions rather than billions of pounds. If true, that will bolster the Chancellor's case for a cut in the top rate. But it will also put him under further pressure from the Liberal Democrats, who will push for a quid pro quo in the shape of a "mansion tax" or some other measure targeted at the wealthy.

Molinaro kept letting Metcalf go upper body, you figure he would have learned after the first couple times
Too bad Suzie is not here to squelch this Metcalf love fest. She did have a way with reminding people of unpleasant facts.
Jacob Schlottke---Gone too soon, and the world is a little less bright because of it. RIP, brother.
One, two, Evans is coming for you...
I think that was the 4th or 5th TD Metcalf has given up this year, he is definitely more known for his dominating offense then his impenetrable defense.
One thing that surprised me was how small Frank looked compared to Metcalf. I always thought Molinaro looked like a pretty good sized 149er, but he definitely seemed a bit small and physically outmatched by Brent
Gold is an idiot.
Physically outmatched is right, my goodness. The poor guy got manhandled.
If BM is looking to wrestle freestyle sucessfully after college, he's doing the right thing by learning and employing some upper body techniques in addition to his regular arsenal.

Footwear Care:
For proper cleaning of your footwear to descrease the likelihood of spreading Aquatic Invasive Species, please reference our CleanStream™ page.
If using in saltwater always clean and rinse to prevent corrosion.
Use a brush to remove dust and dirt. Choose an old vegetable brush or toothbrush. For maximum thoroughness, remove laces prior to cleaning. Use specialized boot cleaner, saddle soap or maybe a mild dishwashing soap with luke-warm water.
Do not use bar soap or detergents.
Do not place wet boots close to a heat source (fireplace, campfire, wood stove, radiator, heater, sunny windowsill) as this can weaken adhesives and cause materials to become brittle or shrink.
Dry using natural methods (air dry) and try to keep them out of the sun for long periods of time. Boots dry faster when positioned upside-down. If desired, stuff a sheet or two of newspaper into each boot to absorb moisture. Change the paper each hour.
If you see any mold on your boots, brush in a mixture of 80% water and 20% vinegar.
Over time the use of leather conditioners may provide increased water repellency and can prevent cracking and drying of the leather.
Store footwear in a place where temperatures are stable and normal. Do not store footwear in attics, garages, car trunks or any unventilated spaces.
Never put footwear in washing machine.

- Please make a high top Review by Sinking
OverallWaded all day in these shoes along with neoprene socks and they were very comfortable. My only issue is when I ran into mud. I kept losing them and had to dig them out. Need a high top version!
(Posted on 6/16/15)
- These are HUGE Review by Fish101
OverallThese are absolute huge. Order 1-2 sizes lower. If you're an 11 order a 9. They are definitely made to have a neoprene booty inside, which is counter-intuitive with wet wading. Most people wet wade with no sock, or a thin sock; so these are sized WAY too big.
Otherwise, great shoe. Think Simms.. Think. Wet wading is with a thin or no-sock. Kinda common sense.

- I have two pair in reserve Review by Ralph
OverallI live in these things and burn through a pair and a half each season. I have two pair, unused in the closet in case they get discontinued or "improved"! I get blisters where the top of the heel rubs, but that is easily cured by wearing a pair of the thin Simms neoprene socks. They are flexible which at times make them more stable than cleated hard footbed wading shoes. Love them!

- Excellent shoe for saltwater wading Review by Mike
OverallI have had these shoes for 3 years and have used them extensively in Ascension Bay and Christmas Island and they have worked great! They work well with wet wading socks or bare feet equally. They are very quick to pull on if casting from the deck of the boat in bare feet and have to get out quickly to pursue a fish on a hard or abrasive/sharp bottom.
(Posted on 2/4/15)
- Love them Review by Paul
OverallI've had one pair for about 15 months, and have a new unused pair.
I really like them.
One thing that could use some work is the stitching around the foot opening. On both shoes of the original pair, it's come out. I fixed it with heavier thread and a sewing awl, but it would seem a simple factory fix to upgrade that stitching.

- Best summer water shoe ever Review by Dowizm
OverallI bought the Keen version of this and always filled with rocks. These keep the rocks out. I have a 17' skiff and go from beach to beach in the Puget Sound area and am always in and out of my boat. These grip great, feel great wet and are comfortable all day.
(Posted on 9/16/14)
- Great for wading! Review by Vince
OverallI used to wet wade in Keens, but I was constantly dealing with little rocks getting into the shoes. These are great because the mesh on the sides keeps all of the little rocks out. The Vibram soles grip great and they are super comfortable.
(Posted on 9/11/14)
- Awesome shoe that needs slight redesign Review by Lawrence
OverallI bought these shoes for wet wading in Oregon, Montana and Wyoming. I have used these shoes extensively for nearly two years and have always used them with studs. I have only felt the stud screws in the area of my big toes and mostly when walking on pavement (pullouts in Yellowstone park are paved). When walking on soil and river beds I don't really notice it. I believe that adding a rubber insole pad would eliminate this problem. I would highly recommend to Simms that you redesign the thickness of these soles to eliminate the issue of adding studs. These shoes could very well be the best ever designed if this issue were corrected. Other than the soles they are amazingly comfortable and snug which is necessary to eliminate your feet from shifting within the shoe on rocky surfaces.
[Response from Simms Customer Care Team]
Thanks for the review Lawrence. We have passed this along to the product team. We don't recommend putting studs in the RipRap since the retention plate was not designed for them. Glad that for the most part the studs are working for you.

- Pretty good wading shoes with a rub. Review by Anadromous
OverallI bought for wet wading with a 3 mill neoprene sock which when combined makes a "good"wading shoe. I thought that maybe I could get dual use out of them while kicking around on dry ground. One big problem...the heel cup seam has no covering to protect bare skin(Achilles) from rubbing raw. I was rubbed raw in a few blocks of walking and ended up cinching the shoe so tight it was very uncomfortable but it kept the shoe from rubbing. I must wear a sock with them to keep from blistering and a sock with open port sandals is defeating the cooling effect of the shoe. At 100.00 I feel like these shoes should have had seam covers in the heel cups. It renders them amphibious only unless you want to be the dork wearing socks with sandals. Bummed a bit at the terra firma side of these shoes but very satisfied with the wading aspect. With a bit more thought this could have been a great shoe instead of good.IMO.
(Posted on 7/29/14)
- Shoulda bought before now! Review by BadCaster
OverallJust spent my first day wet wading in these shoes. Performed flawlessly. Comfortable, grippy, keeps sand and pebbles out of your shoes. Way better than even the best river sandals for traction. Simms should market these to the whitewater raft, SUP and kayak crowd. Far superior traction in my experience than any of the high priced river footware you find at the whitewater outfitters. I'm going to buy a second pair to keep in reserve in case I can't get these in the future. I will be using them for fishing as well as rafting. Best thing ever!

Answer 1
try a new air filter, and some good fuel injector cleaner. Also if your gas cap is bad or not on tightly, that will cause the "check engine" light to come on. It has to do with emissions, I have heard that sometimes it is the oxygen sensor, but try the other things first. - adory719
Answer 2
you need a shop with a scan tool to pull codes from obd1 systems. once the code is identified, you can investigate the failed system to determine the failure. Roy - mastertech6371
