Microsoft to Reveal Internet Explorer Mobile Plans
During the CES, one of the audience members has asked Microsoft's Dean Hachamovitch about the future of IE Mobile and whether they plan to bring new features, such as HTML5 anytime soon.
Although he wasn't very eager to reveal any specific plans, Dean Hachamovitch said: …we will be talking more about our mobile browser very soon…
If rumors are to be believed, then the upcoming Windows Phone 7 update (codenamed Mango) will include HTML5 and Silverlight support.

Unwanted Firefox Plug-Ins
Asa Dotzler, the Director of Community Development at Mozilla Corp. has raised a fair question:
Why do I have these plug-ins in Firefox? I don't think I ever asked for any of them
There are quite a few plug-ins that make little to no sense, for example:
Why would Firefox ever need a Google or RockMelt Update? Furthermore, why is it okay to install all this malware for the big guys like Apple or Google?
P.S. They are enabled by default.

I dont like the name much. Why they took so long to reveal a name? Over-hyped!
these ppl are attention seekers .. it took them 4 months to reveal the baby's name .. LIKE SERIOUSLYY.. i know for suree they named her the day she came home but wanted to gain attn and so took FOREVER in telling her name :S
maybe they diddt for pub. or not dont know. but it takes long to name a baby, my sister had no name for 3 months... we called her baby, junor, and all kinds of names that we forgot then next day. untill my parents settle for a name but took us 5 months to adjust to that cuz it was so long.
nice name but still it took them this long to name her :O
too much hype in my opinion.. just gathering publicity.. why couldn't they have named the baby earlier? and if they did, then why not just disclose it.. imagine not naming a baby for 4 months.. that's silly.. what would they be calling her then? just baby?
The perfect name for a little princess!
Aaradhya Bachchan! So cute!
Aradhya...That's a nice name
Hey its a g88888888 name. Congratulation.

He's just an average guy who doesn't get along with his father, has thirty sisters to protect, and writes really bad poetry. If he doesn't learn how to be bad soon, if he doesn't figure out how to become the Evil One, then everything and everyone he loves is doomed.

External Hard Drives & Internal Hard Drives are a necessity for modern Video & Audio workflows, and Markertek carries Solid State and HDD from the leading manufacturers. Hard Drives come in an array of transfer rates & protocols, as well as storage capacities. Connectivity protocols include USB, FireWire, Thunderbolt, Ethernet, eSATA just to name a few. Most drives can be used as standalone storage, mirrored or RAID configured.
SSD (Solid State Drives) store data on flash memory, while HDD (Hard Disk Drives) use a mechanical, arm to write data to a spinning metallic "platter." HDD come in varieties that spin at different rates, and the faster they spin, the higher the data transfer rate. Early NLEs relied on 10,000rpm drives for video transfer. SSD offer even faster transfer rates and are much more stable in mobile environments, and are widely used in laptops and video field recorders like the Atomos line. Both types of drives can be used internally or externally, but unlike HDD, SSD won't break or corrupt data if jostled or dropped while writing files.
Markertek is proud to carry ruggedized external hard drives for mobile use, desktop and RAID solutions from brand like LaCie, Glyph and G-Technology just to name a few. Contact us today and let our representatives guide you to External Hard Drives & Internal Hard Drives you can depend on.

If ever we develop a DeLorean-based time machine, it would be handy to send information into the past revealing what kind of medical research to focus on.
For years, actor Michael J. Fox was on the front line of the US's "stem cell wars", arguing that embryonic stem cells could cure conditions like his own – Parkinson's disease.
Last week Fox revealed he now believes that other lines of research hold more promise. "There have been some issues with stem cells, some problems along the way," Fox told ABC News. "An answer may come from stem cell research but it's more than likely to come from another area."
Complicated business
The Michael J. Fox Foundation, based in New York City, is still backing stem cell research, says its chief scientific adviser, Gene Johnson of Washington University in St Louis, but has shifted its emphasis in recent years. "Using stem cells as therapeutic agents is a very complicated business," Johnson says.
Obstacles include working out how to get transplanted cells to integrate into the brain, and developing "off-the-shelf" cell lines that can be used for any recipient.
Meanwhile, other avenues are speeding towards clinical trials. These include neurotrophic factors – proteins that promote the survival of nerve cells – as well as antibodies that target the alpha-synuclein protein, which may be a cause of the brain damage seen in Parkinson's.

Supplies of the Apple iPhone 4S are likely to be constrained in the near-term by "low yields on a key component," Rodman & Renshaw analyst Ashok Kumar asserts in a research note this morning.
Weirdly, and irritatingly, Kumar never says in the note what component he means; I've asked the question and will update if/when he responds.
Kumar says that overall iPhone shipments in the December quarter could come in around 30 million units, or below Street estimates.
Meanwhile, he also thinks that the company needs to focus more on the lower end of the smartphone market, rather than the high-end.
"iPhone share in the premium smartphone segment, 85% at price bands above $500, has likely peaked," he writes, apparently referring to the unsubsidized cost of the device. "With volume growth slowing in the high end segment, Apple's overall share could possibly decline. Most of the forecasted smartphone growth is expected in the value-priced segment. The share of lower priced segment, $200-$300 price band, is forecasted to increase from 25% to 30% over the next 2 years. Repositioning the legacy 3GS at the entry level buys Apple time, but it is a dated product with limited shelf-life. A purpose build lower end SKU is key for Apple to grow share."
On the other hand, he notes that troubles continue at most of the company's rivals. "Nokia appears to be struggling with its recently launched Windows phone. The sell through of the Lumia 800 has thus far been underwhelming. RIMM, HTC and Motorola are all treading water with a lackluster product lineup. Samsung appears to be the primary vendor in the Android ecosystem which continues to grow share with a comprehensive product portfolio and aggressive pricing."
AAPL is down $1.57, or 0.4%, to $374.55.

It has been over a year since the earthquake and community groups like the Organization of Farmers from Besi and Klona (OPBK) have been working hard to recover. The ox-plow service has allowed farmers in the community to more effectively plant and harvest their crops. Increasing food productivity was a critical priority following the earthquake – most household sizes in rural Haiti doubled after earthquake survivors fled Port-au-Prince to live with family and friends. Growing more food and increasing opportunities for income was an essential way to provide for these earthquake survivors.
Watch the video below as Lambi Fund partners discuss the impact of Lambi Fund's emergency earthquake relief program.
An Earthquake Survivor's Story.
Members of OPBK and farmers throughout the Haiti are currently preparing for the upcoming planting season. They need continued training in sustainable agriculture methods and hope to reach even more farmers by expanding their ox-plow service capabilities. Your support in helping farmers achieve bountiful harvests and reliable incomes is very much appreciated! Please consider sharing this project with family and friends so that communities can prepare for the planting season. Planting now will play an imperative role in farmers' harvests and incomes later on in the year.
The first stop in an itinerary that took us from Port-au-Prince to Haiti's most Northwestern town, Mole St. Nicholas, was at the Center for Plantain Propagation where we met with members of two partner organizations, Peasants Organization of Gwo Mon and Peasants Organization of Sél (AGPGM and APS). The meeting's agenda as set by the organizations included discussions about Lambi Fund's emergency assistance campaign and the work implemented at the Center.
As anticipated, we were all touched by moving accounts of earthquake stories shared by all. We heard of the tears shed over fallen relatives and neighbors.
We were all moved by the narratives of solidarity and mutual support extended to total strangers who walked into their lives traumatized, wounded and seeking support. Our partners told the stories that we would hear along the way. Stories of communities overwhelmed by refugees, men and women eager to help but wondering how they would all survive with their meager supplies of food and water, in the absence of any type of assistance.
Mr. Josephat, a member of APS recalled tearfully:
"I had 21 people, strangers staying with me and my family. We did not think twice about welcoming them, but we had not yet figured out how they would be cared for or how they would be fed.
When we heard about Lambi Fund's program to help impacted families, I was so happy that I cried. I cried because I was touched and shocked that people who had been at the center of this disaster had the time to think about us.
I was so proud to be a member of a strong organization, and I really deeply understood why being organized is the path to a better life. We would have been left to our own devices without Lambi Fund's support.
The government never came and the NGOs which did drop by brought free food supplies and their methods of distribution stripped us of our dignity."
"I had 21 people, strangers staying with me and my family. We did not think twice about welcoming them, but we had not yet figured out how they would be cared for or how they would be fed.

The government never came and the NGOs which did drop by brought free food supplies and their methods of distribution stripped us of our dignity."
His sentiments were echoed throughout our visits in the Northwest. Haitian peasants continued to reiterate that Lambi Fund delivered aid respectfully through the direct engagement of partner communities.
Reports from all communities visited confirmed that the second phase of Lambi Fund's emergency assistance program focusing on food production and food security was a total success. Nearly all farmers from Gwo Mon to Gwo Sab shared their success stories of fast growing cultivation within two months of the earthquake. Thanks to Lambi Fund's support, partner communities generated bountiful harvests of peas, vegetables and corn for consumption and sale at local markets.
In Mawotyé, farmers were less successful with the Emergency Fund's second phase because they purchased most of their seeds from a government agency which was selling hybrid seeds donated by the international community. This unfortunate deviation from their tradition of acquiring local seeds proved very costly. According to disappointed farmers, with the exception of corn cultivation, the harvest for peas, okra, millet and other vegetables was dismal. The farmers said that they have learned their lesson and will return to purchasing local seeds.
In all communities visited, farmers reported that their ongoing projects were now proceeding on-course following justifiable post-earthquake interruptions. In Gwo Mon, activities related to plantain production, sale and processing were going strong.
"I was so proud to be a member of a strong organization, and I really deeply understood why being organized is a path to a better life."
Members of KFTK-NW in Remon, spoke of the importance of the Lambi Fund's support immediately following the earthquake and the Second Phase of assistance focusing on food security and sustainability. In Gwo Sab, farmers, fishermen and market women thanked Lambi Fund for its support of their efforts to modernize their fishing practices and to capitalize the women's microcredit fund. Members enumerated in very somber tones the names of all the men who perished at sea in the past - victims to the elements and the rudimentary boats they used for fishing. Gwo Sab's collaboration with Lambi Fund has resulted in the purchase of new motor boats, is saving lives and helping build a more sustainable future for their community.
This trip into the Artibonite and Northwestern parts of Haiti illustrated the undeniable fact that Haiti's farmers rightly reflect the post-earthquake psyche of those in urban communities. Haitians, throughout the entire country, are all overcoming the immense trauma of January's earthquake.
Like their urban counterparts in Port-au-Prince, Haitian farmers are determined to be part of their country's reconstruction. Lambi Fund is proud to be a tool which will assist them in the realization of these dreams and visions for a stronger Haiti. In addition to continuing our support of sustainable economic and environmental activities, Lambi Fund has pledged to amplify these voices and their determination to be included in this historic moment for nation building in Haiti.
Working towards food security is more important than ever following January's earthquake in Haiti. Thanks to humble donations like yours, members of OPBK have purchased 4 oxen and plows and are in the middle phases of launching a community ox-plow service.
Prior to owning the oxen, OPBK members had to rely on private ox-plow services that were unreliable and costly. Many times, crops would be planted late as they waited for an ox-plow to become available.
To date, 29 members have completed Lambi Fund workshops covering organizational management, credit fund management, operating an ox-plow service, financial management and evaluation. Armed with these important skills, the organization launched their ox-plow service and has plowed 33.14 hectares of land. This means that many members in the community have benefited from this affordable ox-plow service. More land is tilled and crop production is increased.
Please consider continuing support for this project as members of OPKB state that demand for the ox-plow service exceeds current capacity. With continued funds, they hope to purchase more oxen and train more members on how to operate an ox-plow service. As OPKB's ox-plow service strengthens, the entire community benefits from more plentiful crops and greater food security.
Thanks to your generous support rural families in Haiti are beginning to recover since January's earthquake. The use of oxen are proving invaluable as farmers have begun planting for the season. As oxen cultivate the land much quicker than the use of a hand-plow ever could, 100's of farmers are planting more and expanding their crops for the future. This is hope that Haiti can really hold on to.
Please read the Lambi Fund of Haiti's Spring 2010 newsletter for the most recent updates from earthquake relief and recovery in the field. You will learn about Lambi Fund's work to date and our plans for the future:
PROGRESS AMID THE CHAOS:Lambi Fund Responds to the Earthquake Disaster in Haiti
On January 12 the ground shook. It trembled like never before. In just a few horrifying moments, a massive earthquake destroyed Port-au-Prince, Haiti's capital, and major provincial cities like Jacmel, Léogâne, and Petit-Goâve.
The world watched in horror as the toll on human life unfolded. Never before, declared UN Secretary-General Ban Ki-Moon, has a natural disaster been so devastating.
The Presidential Palace crumbled, UN headquarters were destroyed, building after building collapsed like pancakes.
Unbelievably, 250,000 residences were destroyed or rendered uninhabitable.
The horrible stench of death lurked in the city for weeks afterwards. Over 200,000 people were killed. More than 150,000 individuals injured and left to live life as amputees. In the blink of an eye, nearly 2 million Haitians were rendered homeless.

Responding to such a catastrophe has not been easy. Through the rubble, roads were impossible to navigate and trying to coordinate the influx of international donor agencies was declared a logistical nightmare.
Earthquake survivors left with no homes, no food, and no jobs quickly realized that aid distribution would be slow and unreliable.
Thus over 500,000 affected residents caught the first bus they could find to live with family members and friends in the rural provinces of Haiti.
This massive migration of internally displaced persons has wreaked havoc on already impoverished rural communities, where the average person still survives on less than $2 a day. Some rural populations (so much as) doubled overnight.
Keeping with the Haitian tradition of peasant solidarity, rural communities have been quick to take in quake survivors and have shared with them everything they have. The 80-year-old mother of the field monitor for Fon Lanbi Pou Ayiti has taken in 39 people in her small house.
Christianne Adrien, a street vendor, and her husband Ilson, a farmer, took in 18 members of her extended family. "If it were for the money, we would never have done it."
After the earthquake, more than a half million people fled Port au Prince and relocated to rural areas.
They, along with thousands of peasants throughout Haiti have spent what little they have on clean water, medical supplies, clothing, bags of rice, and cans of beans for their new neighbors. Peasants have slaughtered precious cows to bring meat to patients at local hospitals.
Christianne continues, "We did this because we wanted them to have a life. If God saved the life of some people from a catastrophe of that size, it's so that we can protect the life of others. People have to live; you have to receive them."
It is here, through fellow Haitians and local grassroots networks that earthquake survivors are receiving the aid that they so desperately need. Resources are tight, but the spirit of sharing stays strong.

Upgrading Cylinder Heads - Stepping Up To The Port - CNC Twisted Wedges
Out Of The Box Isn't Just Stock At Trick Flow Anymore. Now It Offers CNC Twisted Wedges, And We Tested Them
In 1995, Trick Flow debuted the much-anticipated Twisted Wedge small-block Ford cylinder head. With a low intro-ductory price and a revolutionary combustion chamber design, the Trick Flow Twisted Wedge head broke new ground. It was like a bomb going off in the 5.0 Mustang world as the level of cylinder head performance offered to the aftermarket performance public took a huge step forward. Ten years later, Trick Flow is back with its next ground-breaking design-a CNC-ported version of its landmark Twisted Wedge head that is sure to give the competition something to worry about while providing small-block Ford junkies a whole new horsepower fix.
The timing of this new release comes as several companies-both established and new-are moving into the high-performance Ford market with competitive cylinder head offerings. We lost count years ago of how many heads one can choose from when it comes time to build your next motor, but there are at least 40 different heads out there. It's no surprise Trick Flow has more competition today than in 1995, but until now it has never offered a factory-ported version.
"The market is driving us to do this head," says Charlie Schmidt, Trick Flow's lead sales representative. "It's gotten to the point that we were forced to offer the CNC port work from the factory. Brodix, Dart, AFR, and Edelbrock all have their version of a CNC-ported head, and we had to offer this head as well."
We first learned about this head at the PRI show, and anxiously awaited its release while we picked up information on final details. Trick Flow worked with its own engineers to design a ported version of the Twisted Wedge that would emphasize mid-lift numbers-already a strong suit with the stock castings. The ported versions include a full port of the intake and exhaust ports as well as a completely worked combustion chamber. The heads will come in 205cc and 185cc versions (stock intake runner volume is 173cc). And the combustion chamber size grows from 61cc to 65 cc.
As tested, Charlie quoted us the flow numbers that were up 7 percent at 0.300, up 14 percent at 0.400, up 17 percent at 0.500, and up 21 percent at 0.600. The heads will come assembled with Ferrera valves (2.02/1.60), ARP studs, rocker plates, and dual springs for cams of up to 0.600-inch lift. We've included our own measured flow numbers, which are right in line with what Trick Flow is claiming. The current trend in the 5.0 hobby is to build even more powerful 5.0 and 5.8 engine combinations than when the first Twisted Wedge head hit the market, and it looks as if these Trick Flow CNC-ported heads will fit right in.
As Charlie tells us regarding the goals of this project, "The customers we are after are the guys who may already have a set of Trick Flow heads and are looking to step up. They're looking to pick up 50-60 more without having to go through the hassle of sending their existing heads out to someone and not knowing what kind of work they'll get in return for their money. Of course, we also want the serious street 5.0 guys who will spend the money up front for a killer set of heads. It's going to be hard to improve on these things."
By the time you read this, Trick Flow will have CNC-ported Twisted Wedge heads on the shelf and ready for delivery, something it believes gives the company a leg up on the competition's lead times. The cost is $1,995, or around $800 more than the base castings. Considering what you get out-of-the-box without the hassle of involving a head porter, we think Trick Flow has made the decision easy for many small-block Ford engine builders. Also in the works are CNC-ported versions of the timeless Trick Flow Street Heat head due out by mid-summer. By SEMA and PRI, look for a killer set of CNC-ported Trick Flow Twisted Wedge R heads ready to bolt onto your favorite race car. It looks as if Trick Flow has stepped up its game, have you?

With the 2015 US Open next month we are quite literally salivating at the exciting prospect of seeing some more terrific golfing action. All the action will take place on Chambers Bay in University Place, Washington and marks the 115th time that the event has been held. The tournament is watched by millions around the world and many believe it to be the ideal course for Tiger Woods to once more tackle to help him claw his way back to his golfing best.Follow paulmbanks
2015 US Open: an Inside Look
Tune Your Technique: Indoor Golf Drills to Do at Home
It's time to get back into the swing of things, but before you hit the links, you need to practice a few shots. What's a golf enthusiast to do? Get out your clubs and run some drills at home. Unless you live out in the country, you probably don't have a lot of space to drive a ball or practice putting. But, what you can do is mow a small section of your yard and set up a net to catch balls.Follow paulmbanks

The Master's are a tradition unlike any other. As we're currently in The Master's mania, you want to look knowledgeable regarding golf terms. If you are planning to go on a golfing holiday or simply play the sport for the first time, the terminology used can be quite mystifying.

However, the letter said the pics of Phelps getting off the plane were taken by his girlfriend Win McMurry; so thus ends the speculation about the status of Phelps and McMurry.

Alabama Shakes lead singer robbed in Nashville
The Associated Press
NASHVILLE, Tenn. (AP) -- Brittany Howard of the Alabama Shakes is unharmed after being robbed at gunpoint over the weekend.
RELATED: Grammy couples
Nashville police say Howard and four others, including members of the Brooklyn-based band Clear Plastic Masks, were robbed Sunday night in east Nashville by two unidentified teens wearing hoodies.
Howard and the Shakes are up for three Grammy Awards in February, including Best New Artist, after releasing their debut album "Boys & Girls" earlier this year. A spokeswoman says the 24-year-old singer from Athens, Ala., has no comment.
The thieves were both armed with handguns and stole cellphones and a small amount of cash, but didn't harm anyone before taking off. Some of the items were found a short time later at a nearby park.

Originally written on Bloguin Best | Last updated 6/5/12
When news came out that Terrell Owens had left agent Drew Rosenhaus in favor of Jordan Woy, an agent based out of Dallas, I had a couple of thoughts. First, Drew Rosenhaus is probably thrilled that he doesn't have to represent Terrell Owens anymore. Rosenhaus can't exactly make a lot of money when his client isn't getting any job offers. Frankly, if I was Rosenhaus, I would throw Owens a going away/retirement party to celebrate the event. My second, and admittedly more serious thought, is that the move does nothing to get Owens back on the field. The message Owens is trying to send is that he's not demanding big money or anything resembling big money. He just wants back on the football field with an NFL team. Unfortunately, teams aren't exactly interested in bringing him into their locker rooms. It's hard to tell how many millions of dollars Owens' attitude and actions have cost him over the years. My gut feeling is that he has enough left in the tank to make a significant differenc...

Study: one-third of new iOS game submissions are 'Flappy Bird'-alikes
updated 01:32 am EST, Fri February 28, 2014
Original developer plans to introduce new titles to App Store
Despite efforts by Apple to prevent some of the more brazen clones of the popular-but-pulled iOS game Flappy Bird, a recent sampling of new iOS games released in a 24-hour period has revealed that one-third of them are either direct clones with different artwork and names, or at least use the same gameplay mechanic to the point that they are obviously borrowing the concept.
Flappy Beard Hipster's Quest
According to report from UK newspaper The Guardian, 95 of the 293 games studied by the paper were direct or indirect copies of Flappy Bird, with titles like Buffalo Wings, Flappy Beard Hipster Quest, Flappy Bee and more. The latter game was actually pulled by Apple over its use of stolen artwork assets from the original game, but was returned to sale after it removed the stolen artwork and changed the title back to the original name (Jumpy Bee).
The original game Flappy Bird hit upon a simple concept that players found overly addicting: a genuinely difficult maze and coordination-challenging, retro-style casual time-killer that offered unlimited lives to try, try again. Users became so addicted to the game that the developer, Doug Nguyen, pulled it voluntarily from the App Store, saying its success and the enormous feedback from users had taken a toll on his previously "simple, quiet life." Those who originally had a copy of the game can continue playing it; such is the interest in the game that iPhones with the game installed have been spotted for sale as high as $1,200.
Tappy Bieber
Since the game was pulled, and endless series of clones with the word "Flappy" or some similar derivative have flooded Apple's app submissions, to the point where the company is no longer automatically dropping any title with word "Flappy" in it. The maker of rip-off clone Flappy Bee hinted to The Guardian that his title had been making over $10,000 a day -- the original game was generating $50,000 per day in ad revenue alone before it was pulled.
For his part, Flappy Bird creator Nguyen says he has no plans to return the game to production in the foreseeable future. He does, however, indicate that he wants to develop and distribute new game apps for future sale. In the meantime, fans who want to get the Flappy Bird experience continue to have plenty of wanna-be candidates to pick from.

My Classy (And Gassy) Father's Day Gift
Sunday, June 16th, 2013
2 years, 7 months.
Dear Jack,
With today being a special day, Father's Day to be exact, Mommy decided to make our family some of her magical vegan cupcakes.
You got lucky. She let you lick the cake batter from the mixing bowl.
To keep the chocolate "mud" from getting all over your clothes, Mommy and I decided it was best that we strip you down to just your diaper.
Immediately afterwards, Mommy went upstairs to fold the laundry.
That meant it was just you and me.
That's when things got weird…
You placed the mixing bowl in the middle of the kitchen floor, then begin circling it while holding your spoon to your forehead. (Technically dangerous, though things often are when you're on my watch.)
It didn't help that you were by that point "toddler drunk" from the mix of the sugar and the missed nap.
I had a feeling I needed to capture this on video. I couldn't have known what was about to happen during those 38 seconds I recorded you.
So, actually, here ya go…
Watch the clip of what happened:
That's right. In the middle of your ancient tribal dance, you gave me the gift that keeps on giving… as you put it, "It was a gas!"
Thank you for my coffee cup. Thank you for my new swim trucks and t-shirt. Thank you for the cool dinosaur Father's Day card you picked out especially for me.
And while I'm at it, I guess I might as well thank you for the… hilarious memory, too!

The 12 Stupidest Ways People Died (Thanks to Going to the Bathroom)
Subscribe to our newsletter
Death is always watching, and always waiting. Yes, always. It doesn't matter whether you're watching TV on the couch, or putting up some new shelves, or feeding the cat, the claimer of souls always has your back. And no, we don't mean in the 'Bad Boys' Martin Lawrence/Will Smith bromance kinda way either. He's going to reap you whenever he damn well feels like it. Even if you're on the can at the time, as these twelve horrifying tales show...
Anonymous Man from Johannesburg
In May 2002, a 74-year-old man from Johannesburg bled to death from cuts received when he fell on shattered porcelain from a toilet bowl that had collapsed under his weight.
Jane Runchman
Jane Runchman, a 48-year-old woman from Louisville, Kentucky, died in March 1986 after slipping from a toilet with a broken seat. The primary cause of death was an injury sustained to the head, but she also suffered a broken leg and wrist.
The problem we can see with this, however, is why was she sitting on a broken seat to start with? Which psychotic thinks to themselves "Yes, this busted piece of porcelain which has the capacity to become very sharp in the time it takes me to finish this sentence. That's where I want to place my ass".
Anonymous Burglar
A burglar attempting to rob a home in Los Angeles in 1992 died when he slipped on the floor, after entering through a bathroom window, and fell headfirst against the toilet.
Laurence Baker
On 1st January 1997, convicted killer Laurence Baker died while serving a life sentence in a Pittsburgh prison. He was electrocuted by a fault in his homemade earphones as he watched a portable TV on his cell's metal toilet.
Wait, in prison you can watch TV on the can? Where do we sign? Although, that said, we'll bring our own headphones thanks.
Kenneth Matthews
Kenneth Matthews, a 58-year-old man from Moss Bluff, Florida, was beaten to death by housemate Franklin Crow in February 2006. The reason for the violent attack, according to Crow, was that there was "a lack of toilet paper" in the bathroom they shared.
Man, we would have hated the see the fight that would have erupted had either of them completed the crossword without the other knowing, or if any ...ahem... organic matter remained in the bowl after flushing.
Anonymous Driver
A flatbed truck carrying several toilet bowls and tanks swerved to avoid a trashcan that had been rolled into the road in Clackamas County, Oregon. This led to several toilets falling from the vehicle onto traffic behind it. One toilet bowl smashed through the windshield of a car, leading to a crash that killed its driver.
Anais Gloreaux
The ironic machinations of Death combined with the inherent perils of alcohol seem to have played a part in the freakish demise of 33 year old Anais Gloreaux. The woman, who hailed from the northern Belgian town of Pulle, had spent a Saturday evening in 2005 out drinking at a variety of bars with several of her closest friends. On her way home, she decided to take a short cut through the town's cemetery.
Needing to answer an urgent call of nature, Gloreaux crouched down between the gravestones to relieve herself, whereupon she was suddenly attacked by a plague of the undead, who were no doubt desperate to find out why this drunken woman was pissing all over their final resting places.
Nah, only joking. As she tried to stand up after finishing the deed, she lost her balance and seized hold of one of the tombs to stop herself from falling. Unfortunately the tombstone she grabbed worked its way loose and collapsed on top of her. According to the public prosecutions office, which originally investigated the death and subsequent discovery of Gloreaux's body as a possible murder, she died of suffocation after being unable to lift the stone off from on top of her.
Anonymous Camper
In 2001, a 32-year-old male camper died in Montabaur, Germany, when the campsite toilet he was using exploded due to a build-up of leaking gas from a septic tank.
Michael Anderson Godwin
Murderer Michael Anderson Godwin spent several years fighting the sentence of death by electric chair while being held in a South Carolina jail. In March 1989, he was sitting on a metal toilet seat on his cell as he attempted to fix his small TV set. He bit through a wire and was fatally electrocuted. What is it with prisons, toilets and TV's?
Jacques Soulet
In 1956, Jacques Soulet, a Frenchman of restricted height (which we guess is a fancy way of saying, 'a short ass'), was visiting New York on theatrical business. He died from complications of a genital injury sustained when the toilet lid fell down whilst he was urinating.
Seven People. We Repeat: Seven Goddamn People
Tragedy engulfed a small village in the Surkhonaryo province of Uzbekistan in August 2005. A father and son digging a 23ft overflow pit for an outdoor latrine fell into the sewage as the sides of the pit collapsed. Five neighbours and relatives who rushed to their aid died from inhaling poisonous gases after they lowered themselves into the sewage to try and rescue the men.
Ramonito Yuson
Ramonito Yuson, a 37 year old taxi driver from Manila in the Philippines, got a fatal shock when he made an illicit stop to answer a call of nature. Pulling up in a quiet street in the Intramuros district in the early hours of a Saturday morning in 2002, Yuson ignored local bylaws preventing public urination and began to piss against a lamppost.
Unfortunately for him, there was an exposed live wire at its base and electricity from the lamppost arced along the stream of his urine and electrocuted him. A local police spokesman commented that the death should serve as a warning to all those that pee in public places, which to be honest, is a bit fucking harsh.

I am assuming that a liquid cooled version would retain much of the camhead design, including shim type adjustments. If liquid cooling stretches that adjustment interval to 26k or something in the range of competing bikes then I personally would be much more interested. I still don't like the idea of being at the mercy of being able to get the right shim when I need it. I am guessing that after some time it will probably be the exhaust valves that tend to tighten up a bit, and carrying a couple of likely shims may not be that big of a deal. If the adjustment interval goes up significantly in my mind it would be an okay trade-off.
Liquid cooling on its own won't change anything regarding clearance checks. The valve train is also not the same as the twin cam as it will be pure bucket and shim with no rockers as it is now. This should stretch the checks out although to what is anybodies guess. I would also think that the water Cooling and new valve gear could shave a bit off the width but they might have done other things like increase the stroke to widen it again.

I'm a news junkie, I like to keep up with politics and current events. I do like to read biographies as well as fiction novels in my spare time.
I like a variety of activities from playing tennis to watching football and basketball games (especially when the eagles and the Sixers are winning). I like museums, movies, and travel also.
