Ordinarily a dual point ignition does something different. It makes the points last longer and work better at higher RPM. They do this by have one set of points handle the function of closing and the other set of points handle the function of opening. Mallory still makes V8 distributors that have dual points. Had them on a pair of Ford 427 motors in a boat a few years ago.
Not sure what's being said here but British twins typically use/used two sets of points. Later BSAs used 12v coils and independent systems giving a long dwell time for the coils to energize. Some Triumphs used 6v coils in series with a wasted spark meaning that each cylinder could be timed independently but both would fire each revolution.

Hello, dzu! I liked almost all of them very much. But the most interesting for me are two paintings : 6 and 9.
6th: I love the expression of the face, a personality and how you did it. The hands look too small for me, in my personal opinion, you need to put highlights on them. But I think it's great portrait anyway.
9th: I think it's a charming image of a young woman. I like her light glowing hair and the whole evening calm mood.
So thank you for the lovely images,

When I start talking to people about the caching functionality that is part of Windows Server AppFabric I am usually asked "What is the AppFabric Cache?" The MSDN page at http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ee790954.aspx provides a great overview (below) as well as additional information. The Cache is defined as:
"Windows Server AppFabric caching features use a cluster of servers that communicate with each other to form a single, unified application cache system. As a distributed cache system, all cache operations are abstracted to single point of reference, referred to as the cache cluster. In other words, your client applications can work with a single logical unit of cache in the cluster regardless of how many computers make up the cache cluster. "
When you develop against the AppFabric Cache you utilize the cache-aside pattern. This pattern outlines the steps in which the application will first check to see if the data is in the cache. If not, then query a database (or other data source), load the cache, then return the value. The idea is that the cache will be populated over time as instances of the application call for data. The AppFabric Cache comes with a number of options around how long data should remain in the cache and provides you the flexibility to tune the performance to your needs.
One thing that the cache-aside pattern doesn't provide for is the pre-population of data in the cache. This entry will walk through how we can provide this functionality.
The first thing we need to do is to create the cache. I outline how to create a cache in .NET code in my previous entry. You can check that out but I will also include the code in the sample below. As you go about creating the cache you also need to decide if you want eviction to occur and if so how long the data will stay in the cache until it is evicted. For this example I am going to setup the cache so that eviction is turned off (Expirable is set to false). Since I am preloading the cache I want to the data to remain in the cache. If I read your mind, the next question will be how will the code handle when new data is entered into the database. Through the use of the SQL Dependency functionality we can setup an event handler to respond when an event is raised when there is a change at the database layer. Once this event is caught we can empty the cache and reload it. We could also add code to take advantage of the cache-aside pattern and if we don't the data in the cache then query the database and populate the cache on demand.
As we look at the code example below lets jump directly to the PopulateLookUpCache method. The first part of this method sets up the database connection, the SQL Dependency and loads the data into a dataset. The second part of the method focuses on the loading of the cache. This is the part that we will focus on.
Before we can use the cache we need to create an instance of the DataCacheFactory. This object requires configuration information. This can either be through entries in a config file as shown below:
or through code by creating a DataCacheFactoryConfiguration object and passing it to the DataCacheFactory as shown below:
var config = new DataCacheFactoryConfiguration();config.Servers = new List<DataCacheServerEndpoint> { new DataCacheServerEndpoint(Environment.MachineName, 22233)};DataCacheFactory dcf = new DataCacheFactory(config);
We can now call the GetCache method which will return a cache object based on the name of the cache that is passed into the method. The Cache object has a number of methods which allow us to interact with the cache. I use the Put method as the Put will add or replace an object in the cache whereas the Add method only adds an entry. If there is already an object in the cache it will return an exception.
In the code below, I loop through the DataSet and call the Put method to populate the cache. The Put method takes two parameters. The first is the key that will be used and the second is the value. In this case, since I am using the AdventureWorks sample database, the Products table contains the product id and the product which works very nicely for this example.
Once the loop has been executed and the data is now in the cache we can double check that the cache has been populated through the use of a PowerShell cmdlet. Switch to a PowerShell command window and type in (without the quotes) "Get-CacheStatistics -CacheName <your cache name>" and hit enter. This will return a list of attributes related to the cache and will show you how many items are currently in the cache.
We now have a populated cache and a now can use the GetLookUpCacheData method to read data out of the cache for our application. Take a look at the code below to see how all of this was done as well as how to setup the SQL Dependency code to get events. As always this code is provided as is and there are a number of places that should be refactored - such as the repeating DataCacheFactory objects.

The current parliament of Nepal is the 2nd Nepalese Constituent Assembly. The former Parliament of Nepal was dissolved by King Gyanendra in 2002, on the grounds that it was incapable of handling the Maoist rebels. The country's five main political parties have staged protests against the king, arguing that he must either call fresh elections or reinstate the elected legislature. In 2004, the king announced that parliamentary elections would be held within twelve months; in April 2006, in response to major pro-democratic protests, it was announced that Parliament would be reestablished.[1]
On January 15, 2007, the old parliament was dissolved and replaced by the 330-member interim legislature of Nepal.[citation needed]
During the time the 1990 Constitution was in effect,[when?] Nepal had a two chamber Parliament (Sansad):[citation needed]
- The House of Representatives (Pratinidhi Sabha) had 205 members elected for five year term in single-seat constituencies.
- The House of the States (Rashtriya Sabha) had 60 members, 35 members elected by the Pratinidhi Sabha, 15 representatives of Regional Development Areas and 10 appointed members.
After the success of the April 2006 people's movement, an Interim Constitution was promulgated and a constituent assembly election was held in April 2008. The 601-member assembly on 28 May 2008 abolished the 238 years old monarchy and declared the country a republic. The parliament cum constituent assembly, which was initially given two years to draft a new constitution, was dissolved on 27 May 2012 after its failure to draft a new constitution due to differences over restructuring the state. Nepal now has no parliament and is ruled by a caretaker government led by Prime Minister Baburam Bhattarai, a UCPN (Maoist) leader. Nepal's Interim Constitution did not foresee that the constituent assembly would fail to promulgate a new constitution. Now in the absence of parliament it has become constitutionally impossible to amend the constitution to hold new parliamentary or CA election. Also, bitter wrangling among the political parties has prevented various key appointments including in constitutional bodies and prevented the Maoist government from unveiling a full fiscal budget.
Women's Representation in the National Parliament[edit]
Women's representation in the Parliament of Nepal has increased in the Constituent Assembly, which will have immense role to draft the future constitution of Nepal.[1]

land animals need, how quickly their populations grow, and how many young they produce.
The ecological importance of body size makes it of practical as well as academic interest. To conserve a species, we need to understand it. As the biologist William Calder wrote: "A conservation biologist trying to prepare a protection plan without data on the species' biology is like an insurance underwriter issuing a policy in ignorance of the applicant's age, family status and medical history." Yet conservationists often work in almost perfect ignorance of what they are trying to save. It is likely that at least 90 percent of species, and possibly a much higher proportion, have not yet been discovered, described, and named. And our knowledge of most of those that have stops with their existence—we have only a pressed leaf or a bug pinned out in a draw. No one knows how widely they are spread, how great their numbers are, what they eat, what parasites assail them, how many young they produce and how often, what foods or habitats they prefer, or how they behave. Of the species we do know something about, the majority are birds, mammals, and flowering plants. Of the most diverse groups, such as insects, fungi, and bacteria, we know practically nothing. Most species live in tropical forests, through which it is difficult to travel and in which it is difficult to spot things. The number of biologists and the resources they have to fund their discovery and description of species are both limited, particularly in tropical countries, which tend to be among the poorer nations. Our destruction of biodiversity outpaces our knowledge of it.
We need rules of thumb that, in the absence of detailed knowledge, can help us predict which species are most vulnerable to threats such as habitat destruction or hunting and so which are most in need of conservation. Rules based on body size have two great advantages. Size is informative, and it is easy to measure. Even if we know nothing else about a species, we almost always know how big it is. It's been said that ecologists report body size in the same way that journalists report their subjects' ages—practically as a reflex. It takes only a moment to weigh an animal; taking such a measurement requires little equipment or expertise, its accuracy can usually be trusted, the animal doesn't have to be alive to be weighed, and if it is, you don't need to interfere

- " This is a standard busy inner city London hostel with no personal touch. Location is good and easy to get everywhere in London from there. Kitchen is standard fridge, microwave and hot plate only. Rooms are big enough for the 16 and 20 bed dorms but they are in desperate need of ventilation. One small fan and one small window makes it horrible to spend any time in there. This is a pay for extras hostel. Pay for lockers in your room, towels, pool table, etc which is always annoying. Great staff. "
- 03 Jul 2015 Anonymous Australia
- " The French girl at check in was very friendly and helpful. It was a pleasure talking to her. The Arabic/Indian guys who worked there seemed a bit rude and off putting, not very helpful. "
- 26 Jun 2015 Anonymous USA
- " It was cheap so I did not expect that much. It is just an average hostel, so far so good. I stayed in a 12 mixed dorm and that is the first time I saw a triple bunk bed. You need to pay an extra money for the locker. Breakfast is simple but enough (toast and cornflakes) It is just a 5 min walk from hyde park and you can take the central line by walking to Victoria Station for 3 mins. If you have a low budget, you may give this hostel a shot. "
- 26 May 2015 Anonymous Hong Kong
- " Hair dryer is always unavailable for us to borrow, no lift even there is 4 floor. We have booked a room with two single separate bed, but eventually it becomes bunk beds. Exhausted fan is not strong enough to keep the bathroom dry, also you can not keep it on when you leave the bathroom. I have come to London 3 years ago and stayed in Smart Hyde Park View Hostel, which is only few streets away. I would rather stay there if I can choose again. "

Why is it that "the one that got away" sometimes intrigues us more than the one that didn't? Sara Anderson, a kindergarten teacher engaged to handsome young minister Daniel Parker, faces that question when she is called for jury duty and discovers that an old flame is the prosecuting attorney. During a week-long jury trial, Sara faces a torrent of emotions – betrayal, bitterness, fear, and worry – all the while listening to the evidence in the case at hand. Sara suspects that there is more to the story than meets the eye, but she isn't prepared for the answer to be so shockingly close to her own heart.

Colts Head Coach Chuck Pagano with Offensive Coordinator and Interim Head Coach Bruce Arians I thought I saw an inspiring and heartful performance on Saturday night. Watching an emotional AJ McCarron bring the Alabama Crimson Tide back to beat the LSU Tigers in "Death Valley." And it was. A strong, coming of age performance by a young quarterback and his team. Then I watched my Indianapolis Colts on Sunday. And then I saw Coach Chuck Pagano's locker room speech afterwards. Have there ever been more tears shed in one weekend of football? No wonder I'm emotionally drained. Vince Lombardi must be rolling over in his grave. I bet he's smiling though. Sunday was truly a special day. Coach Pagano, who was diagnosed with leukemia during the Colts bye week at the end of September, returned to the team for the first time. He surprised players in the locker room before the game and joined them there after to celebrate their 23-20 win over the Miami Dolphins. Yesterday was more than a win though. It was a turning point for the team. The Colts have gone from "the worst team in the NFL" to "that team." That team that's dangerous. That team that's on a playoff run. That team that's playing for more than football. And led by Andrew Luck, the young quarterback who now owns the rookie passing record. Luck passed for 433 yards and two touchdowns, passing Peyton Manning and Cam Newton along the way. And speaking of numbers…check this out. As of week nine, the Broncos sit at 5-3. Peyton Manning has passed for 2,404 yards. The Colts are also 5-3. Andrew Luck has passed for…2,404 yards. Look it up, people. It's true. And eerie…in a divine kind of way. Yes, after all that second guessing…we're going to be just fine. Better than fine. We're going to be great. Coach Pagano, who starts another round of chemotherapy this week, will overcome. He said it himself Sunday, "It's already beat." The Colts will overcome. Overcome illness, injuries, mistakes. Throw anything at them. They will find a way. Because this team is building more than a team, more than a monster. They're building character. And that's the most dangerous thing of all. Because if you have character, no one can beat you. Ever. The post Colts are building more than a monster appeared first on The Blue Mare.

Mommy to Nevaeh (ASD, ADHD, SPD). Born 10/11/08. Forever a family 7/14/10. She doesn't have my eyes or smile, but the moment we met she had my heart
Worst episode ever....it better be a dream or something....I can not believe they killed Lexi and it was like 2 seconds later it didn't even matter anymore....I am so disappointed. And there was literally only 5 minutes of show and then 4 minutes of commercial every segment, there was only like 25 minutes of actul Grey's
Married to my wonderful hubby in April 2010...
Mommy to Ryan Michael 7/26/06 and Abigail Blake 12/09/11

Very sad Lexi Died

Mommy to Nevaeh (ASD, ADHD, SPD). Born 10/11/08. Forever a family 7/14/10. She doesn't have my eyes or smile, but the moment we met she had my heart
Proud Mommy & Wife!
Anthony- 3/2/10 & Alexander-2/17/12
I hated it. I really thought that Hunt was going to off himself after he fired Teddy too. It was so sad about Lexi but I saw it coming.
I SOBBED through Lexi's death. I seriously can't believe it. :( The episode was 42 minutes long but it seemed like SOOOO many breaks and stops.
And HOW CAN THEY END THE SEASON LIKE THIS?! I can't believe we have to wait all summer! That's just mean!!!!!!! Lexi was one of my favorite characters! :( I'm seriously heart broken.
I'm betting Derek loses his hand and can't operate any more. Then Meredith will stay at Seattle Grace and we will still see her, but Derek will be a SAHD. April will take Lexi's place (blah I really don't like April). I'm kind of glad Teddy is leaving. And I really wish Hunt were too. George can come back from the dead. And Izzy can make a few appearances. That would make it all better...
Angee - Mommy through Adoption
Grace (5/4/10) and Joseph (12/4/11)
That's exactly what I think... get rid of Hunt and make Bailey freakin' chief already! Jeez!
I'm so disappointed... it should've been a 2-hour episode.
Goodbye Lexi.
Gigi 01/23/2012
I sobbed as well.... as soon as I saw Lexi I knew she was the one. I REALLY REALLY hope its a dream too! She was one of my faves and I was rooting for her and Mark to get back together. I was actually pissed too that they ended it like that. I really hate cliffhangers, but this one just seems especially mean. September can't get here fast enough!

An Albuquerque woman who killed one person and injured multiple people in a November 2013 suspected drunken driving crash was indicted by a Bernalillo Co. grand jury Thursday.
26-year-old Crystal Vanchaik is charged with homicide by vehicle, two counts of great bodily injury by vehicle and DUI.
According to police, Vanchaik was driving westbound on Zuni when she failed to yield on a turn and was hit by an SUV, injuring all three passengers in her vehicle. One of the passengers later died.
Vanchaik was driving with a suspended license at the time, stemming from a 2011 DUI arrest.
The District Attorney has issued a bench warrant for her arrest, along with a $250,000 bond.
Her arraignment date in District Court has not yet been set.

Webvideo Deluxe: Miro 2.0
A new update has vastly improved the stability of version 2.0 of the webvideo player Miro and the project website has counted its first 1.000.000 visitors.
In a message on his blog, Jesse Patel says he was delighted when he discovered that for the first time, the website miroguide.org was visited by over one million users in one month.
The numbers were supplied by Google Analytics. Patel is sure that 99% of viewers came through the Miro client which, regarding quality, has lately taken a huge leap forward. While overjoyed at the amount of feedback, the project is still looking for sponsors and independent filmmakers in need of an outlet.
Version 2.0.2 of the software has fixed numerous bugs and translates the graphic interface into new languages. Improvements include support for Libtorrent 0.13 and 0.14 and that Miro no longer wrongly displays non- UTF8 figures. The developers have also extended their search for four new video websites, including Vimeo.com.

"Just Another Man"
He looks in the mirror every morning and night,
Does he see what I see, it would be nice if he might.
He sees a rude man as he stands there,
I see someone who needs someone to care.
He sees a mean man, because he has to be tough,
I see someone who deals with more than enough.
He sees how he tries not to cry and feels he has no heart,
I see someone who has to keep his feelings and work apart.
He sees a murderer because he shot someone last night,
I see someone who saved someone else from a fight.
He sees a failure because he did not arrive in time
I see someone who did his best and needs peace of mind.
He sees just another man as he enters the day,
I see a special man who does his best in every way.
For all the years, he has put on the uniform of blue,
He has never realized how much he protects me and you.
But, as he starts the day again, I just wish he could see,
What he really is and how much he means to you and me.

Hooks Institute conference to examine human, civil rights in 2012
Former NAACP chairman Julian Bond calls the state of civil rights in 2012 a "day by day phenomenon."
Daphene McFerren, executive director of the Benjamin L. Hooks Institute for Social Change, compares it to a diet. "It's just like weight loss. You've got to keep at it. It's like a maintenance plan."
The latest step in the plan opens Wednesday with the Hooks Institute's annual conference on civil and human rights, "Toward a More Perfect Union: Civil Rights, Human Rights and Creating a New Age of Social Responsibility."
The three-day conference, most of it in the Michael Rose Theatre at the University of Memphis, looks at civil rights activism and human rights in a global economy, and as part of a tenuous balance that can be thrown off kilter by a single act.
The fatal shooting of Trayvon Martin, a black Florida teenager, was like "removing a scab from a wound that never healed," said McFerren. "It's very clear that race in America remains very material to life in America."
And, because of globalization, life in America can affect life in any other part of the world. "We realize there is a shared responsibility to ensure the economy functions," says Kevin Cassidy, head of external relations for the International Labour Organization of the United Nations. Cassidy will talk at 5 p.m. Wednesday about "The Quest for Social Justice."
The free conference is named for Hooks, who worked as a child in his father's photography studio on Beale Street. He attended LeMoyne-Owen College and Howard University in Washington. To become a lawyer, he had to leave the South, earning his law degree at DePaul University in Chicago.
When Hooks returned to Memphis in 1949, he was one of only two black lawyers in a city where he couldn't join the bar association, use the library or use the restroom that other lawyers used. He was appointed an assistant public defender, then was appointed as a Criminal Court judge.
Hooks, who died at 85 in 2010, overcame a fear of public speaking to become minister of Greater Middle Baptist Church in Memphis and Greater New Mt. Moriah Missionary Baptist Church in Detroit. During the civil rights movement, he served as a board member to Dr. Martin Luther King Jr.'s Southern Christian Leadership Conference. In 1972, he was named the first black member of the Federal Communications Commission and, in 1977, became national executive director of the NAACP.
Bond, founder of the Student Nonviolent Coordinating Committee and chairman emeritus of the NAACP board, will be keynote speaker for the conference. He said Hooks "devoted all of his professional life in one way or another to fighting for civil rights." Bond said he is still thinking about what he will say, but, "I don't think I'm going to talk about him (Hooks) much. I guess I want to talk about the work he gave his life to -- civil rights advocacy."
"One of the best things you could say about it is that the state of civil rights activism is not as great as it once was. It could stand to be improved and more people could become involved. I think people tend to think that someone else is going to do this. In years gone by, they would say, 'Oh, Dr. King will take care of this.'"
Bond's keynote address will be at 6 p.m. Thursday following a talk by Yale history professor George Chauncey about the history of gay people in America. The talk is called "From Sodomy Laws to Marriage Amendments: The History Shaping Today's Debate over Gay Equality."
Among the focal points for Cassidy of the U.N. are international effects of the economic crisis.
"Work is a very important part of our social fabric. Globally we have lost upwards of 29 million jobs that are directly related to the crisis itself," he said. "As we've seen in the Arab Spring, youth is a very important part of the problem. This (lack of jobs) causes a dislocation and a frustration. People can't get married, have children, buy a house or have a normal life."
The job losses come when older workers, who have lost pension benefits and 401k savings, are "realizing they can't quit working."
When people become desperate for jobs, they are more likely to become victims in human trafficking rings in which they sign contracts committing themselves to low wages and poor working conditions, he said.
Morning sessions on Friday will move to U of M's FedEx Institute of Technology, where panelists will discuss corporate responsibility and human welfare.
Conference, film, theater details
A complete schedule of the three-day conference, "Toward a More Perfect Union: Civil Rights, Human Rights and Creating a New Age of Social Responsibility," is on the website of the Benjamin L. Hooks Institute for Social Change at conference.benhooks.org.
The conference is free, but the "red carpet premiere" of the documentary film "Duty of the Hour," will be a fundraiser for the institute at the Orpheum theater at 5:30 p.m. Friday. Tickets cost $125.
A separate theatrical production, "Who Will Bell the Cat?" will be staged at 6:30 p.m. Wednesday at University Center Theatre by Hattiloo Theatre. The $10-a-ticket performance portrays Hooks telling his story through a series of pivotal life events.

Mixing Alcohol With Diet Soda May Make You Drunker
Originally published on Mon February 11, 2013 4:36 pm
Looking to cut back on the calories in your cocktail by mixing, say, diet soda and rum? Well, get ready for the buzz.
According to the results of a new study, this combination will leave you drunker than if you'd mixed the liquor with a sugary, caloric mixer.
"Alcohol, consumed with a diet mixer, results in higher (BrAC) Breath Alcohol Concentrations as compared to the same amount of alcohol consumed with a sugar-sweetened mixer," says Cecile Marczinski, a cognitive psychologist who authored the new study.
Why? Turns out that sugar slows down the absorption of alcohol from the stomach to the bloodstream.
"In other words, it is not that diet soda accelerates intoxication. Rather, the sugar in regular soda slows down the rate of alcohol absorption," explains Dennis Thombs, a professor at the University of North Texas Health Science Center in Fort Worth. He published a paper with similar findings.
So what was the motivation for the new study? "I wanted to know if the choice of a mixer could be the factor that puts a person above or below the legal limit," writes Marczinski, who's a professor at Northern Kentucky University.
And it turns out, diet soda might just push you past that tipping point. Marczinski's study found that the average BrAC was .091 (at its peak) when subjects drank alcohol mixed with a diet drink. By comparison, BrAC was .077 when the same subjects consumed the same amount of alcohol but with a sugary soda.
"I was a little surprised by the findings, since the 18% increase in BrAC was a fairly large difference," Marczinski tells The Salt via email.
Marczinski says she also wanted to determine if the volunteers in her study (eight women, eight men) would notice any differences between the two mixers. Not so much, it turns out.
The subjects didn't report feeling more impaired or intoxicated after drinking the diet soda mixer, compared to the sugary soda. Experts say this may put them at an increased risk of drinking and driving.
The study is being published in the April issue of the journal Alcoholism: Clinical & Experimental Research.
