Recycling / disposing of my old tyres - what to do?
Previous Forum topic
Next Forum topic
Liability in collisions should lie with the biggest vehicle - Vote
Dear all,
I have a quick question one of you might be able to answer.
I recently bought a new set of tyres. I've replaced the rear one, and the front is soon to follow.
However, what should i do with the old tyre? It's badly worn, I wouldn't want anyone to ride it 2nd-hand.
Apparently car tyres can't go to landfill, but must be recycled / properly dealt with. The ban doesn't apply to bike tyres - but does anyone know how i can do the right thing anyway?
the local recycling center here* (or 'tip' as it used to be) now has a section for tyres, car and bike so you may find your local place has this also..

Great idea, always wondered if you could recycle tyres.
I like my bike but it needs a hidden 25cc motor

A repository of extensions for GIMP, the FREE and Open Source image manipulation program.
This plugin does a pretty good job of eliminating shadows and highlights in photographs. It gives you two layers that basically act like adjustment layers, and changing the opacity will alter the effect.
Simulate a B&W infrared image
Updated to work with Gimp 2.8.
Implement a DRI (Dynamic Range Extension)
Input image with three layers:
Upper layer: Darker Image ((under)exposed for highlights)
Middle layer: Correctly exposed Image
Lower layer: Lighter Image ((over)exposed for shadows)

"There are desperate housewives who play WoW, who are so much better than you (and me)"
If you know any, be a pal and do the introductions. :)
Of course games require skill, this is a thread about what skill is and it does not mean the same thing to all people. I regard a FPS shooter as taking more skill than a typical MMO. But that "skill" may be just finding a good hiding place to snip from or upgrading your weapon so you can shine a flashlight in someone's eyes and bind them in daylight (B3). Alternatively it may be good marksmanship; both types of "skill" are to be found.
MMO's tend to rely on memory more than a FPS, you need to know how to do things more than practice them to be perfect. Not so much as being able to do something in game better, but knowing the best way to attack, to even shop!
But in life you will find some people are better at some things, that's the way it goes. Being great in games wins kudos from your mates. Being great in business, science or art will take you much further. So I suggest you get your "skills" spruced up in those rather than just games.
^Actually this is a thread for the OP to vent a bout my defintions of true skill in another thread (or most likely). And again, I'll state, skill required in video games is a joke compared to any real sport, my own passion is in motorsports on 2 wheels. In video games you don't have to worry about dying lol

I agree. But that also brings us back around to something which, I know, is a bit of a different topic, and pretty sure has been debated on these forums in the past:
How do your "skills" in a game transfer into the real world. Especially when it comes to children playing games, and developing certain skills that may help them in the future. And what types of games can help develop which skills?
Some are pretty obvious, like:
RPGs (at least ones with lots of min/maxing and tweaking builds, major economics, lots of calculations, etc such as DDO or EVE) helping improve math skills.
RPGs with lots of story in the form of text improving reading skills.
FPS and to an extent RTS games improving quick thinking / reflex, and coordination / precision.
What about some other things though?
Does playing MMOs and interacting with people the way we do, especially in games with lots of political stuff in them help or hinder social skills in children? Do these things help or hinder not just normal social skills, but social skills as it applies to the business world and managing / leading a company or department?
What about overall application of logic & problem solving skills?

Just one point here. Actually what most studies have found is that you cannot train reflexes. The biggest delay in reflexes is the cognitive component, the ability for the person to realize what is happening, understand it and make a decision. The rest is simply speed of neural abilities.
When people appear to get get at reflexes all that is happeneing is they are in a situation that is familliar to them, aka they allready have a schema developed for this situation or a situation like this. Here they are bypassing a huge portion of the cognitive component, they are predicting what is going to happen and getting various responses ready.
When placed in a new situation that they do not have a schema for the response times are normally the same.
Quit worrying about other players in a game and just play.
^You sure? Stunting is reflex based. Please don't tell me you don't know what stunting or gymkhana means
If everyone is given the same gear/stats/consumeables, then I could see skill being a factor in an MMO. Classes may not always be evenly matched 1v1, but knowing your weaknesses is just as important as knowing your strengths.
The problems I see are when people sit there claiming to be more skilled than someone else, without recognizing the fact that they have much better gear. If you bring that little point up, then they say something like "I put in the time for this gear" which has nothing to do with skill.

Yep definately. Both those activites are completely reflex the first time, however over time you develop pattern recognition and can predict what to do. The course may change but the object of jumping, or 180/360 turns on their own or around objects are not significnatly different from each other as to require a completely new new pattern of thought process or muscular recruitment. So they saw the what was required, they allready have a plan in place for how to do it, they now execute the plan.
The persons reflexes did not get better, their ability to process and respond to new information did not change. What did change was their ability to predict based on pattern recognition.
A completely new act, with objects/activities that are not similar to old ones that requires a new thought pattern and pattern of motor recruitment would be reflex based.
For those who don't know:

I agree that thepart in red is always a factor. Poor balancing in classes can be a major factor. But as you mentioned, knowledge of both yours and your enemy's strengths and weaknesses would be where "skill" in the form of wisdom and experience comes in.
You run into this in games like WAR a lot. Several years later, and they still havent managed to balance classes even remotely in some cases. But I typically like to play an underdog, so I also tend to roll the current "gimp" class ofen just to prove the point that even an inferior class can still win if you learn how to use it properly.
I used to also do stuff like go into T4 RvR zones at level 32 / RR 60ish just to fight level 40s with much higher RR than me. Just found a lot of the fights vs people in the same tier as me very dull since it usually took several enemies + me making a lot of mistakes for me to actually lose fights. Kiting RR90+ tanks to death with my level 34 SW was lots of fun. Took forever, but it was entertaining watching them run in circles trying to catch me because their too stupid to just cut me off instead of following me around in a loop. Same fun with a 35 WH ganking 90+ healers because theyre too slow / stupid to use their detaunt on me instead of trying to heal immediately.

Thats what skilled people play. they play the underpowered and gimp classes. the better you do as that class, the more awesome it feel.
Ever play a Ret Paladin in TBC WoW? What about a Druid in Rift? so much fun when you beat others.

There's no "True Skill" IMHO. What kaiser3282 said is entirely true. You need differents skillsets in every game type. Some skills will transfert from one game to another but usually not with the same emphasis. But to say that "There is no difference in "player skill" in a game like Counterstrike or Starcraft than any other video game." is just plain wrong IMO. You know what skill ceiling is?? Games like Counter-Strike and Starcraft have such a high skill ceiling that the "player skill" will make the difference between a good and a decent player. Also playing at a high level in a game that have a high skill ceiling with a large number of good players will improve the "player skill" A LOT more than playing a game with low skill ceiling with a small amount of good players. As someone who played a lot of CS 1.6 in the past, I can tell you there's a big difference in "player skill" in CS compared to Call of Duty. So its completely true to say that someone who played high skill ceiling games at a high level will be better than someone who doesn't. Its also true to say that someone who played high skill ceiling games at a high level will play better and develop his "player skill" faster than someone who don't play a high skill ceiling game. I've yet to see the day that someone who's good at call of duty will be able to beat me in CS or even in QuakeLive, because the skill ceiling in CoD isn't the same as CS or Quake.
edit : Its like saying you're better than me in CS just because you're one of the top player of a random shooter that nearly no one plays. I really really doubt it could happen, but the other way around is plausible. Someone who played a high skill ceiling shooter will usually have no problem at all to master a low skill ceiling game in no time, but someone who is not used to play high skill ceiling shooter will have a really hard time to master it.

"True skill" isn't just excelling at one game - that's called practice - it's being able to go and play multiple games and be good at them.
I consider myself to be in a top tier of gamers, no epeen intended, but definitely not on esports level, I don't have the time to dedicate to that. "Skill" to me is more than 'zomg 360 no scope headshot' and more along the lines of theory crafting, being able to take things that weren't meant for that purpose and utilize them effectively, etc. Its also knowing your limits and knowing when to turn tail and run, I see too many people in shooters online go kamikaze for a single kill and brag "see that, it was me against the entire other team and I still killed one" when they could have been more effective by falling back and waiting for them to separate.

In the context of PvP Eve Online (presuming one has sufficient skill points to live in null sec):
Time you are willing to 'invest' > 'true skill' > skill points
The biggest problem with the best games is that they can waste a huge amount of your time - particularly if you want to be any good at them.

Anything in life that involves large numbers of people competiting on an even playing field, to rise to the top and standout amongst peers, requires skill.
WTF is true skill? How is that defined? Twitch, memory, strategy, etc.
Different games require a different skill set.

If you play only an hour a day, or even less, but during that hour fill the role of a competent FC you will be able to attract enough friends to fight, scout and give assistance for you to stand a very good chance at winning against any fleet you wish to engage and avoiding any fleet you do not wish to engage.
Even filling another role within your alliance of corporation that's needed, regardless of actual time investment, will likely get you enough respect from your fellow pilots for them to assist you in your battles and stand a much better chance at winning.

East Bay Foundation on Aging
The East Bay Foundation on Aging (EBFA), a supporting organization at The San Francisco Foundation, is a grantmaking partner committed to improving the lives of vulnerable and marginalized seniors in Alameda County through grants to nonprofit organizations. Founded with the proceeds from the sale of the historic Matilda Brown Home for Elderly Women in Oakland, the East Bay Foundation on Aging is now entering its sixth year of grantmaking to East Bay organizations serving seniors with programs that promote aging in place and improve access to healthcare for older adults, as well as supporting caregivers, including nurses, family members, and home health workers.
In 2014, EBFA increased its grantmaking to $354,000, funding 12 organizations. 2014 grantees are:
- Alameda County Meals on Wheels
- Alzheimer's Services of the East Bay
- Bay Area Community Services
- Crisis Support Services of Alameda County
- DayBreak Adult Care Centers
- J-Sei
- ReCARES
- S.O.S Meals on Wheels
- Senior Helpline Services
- Senior Services Coalition of Alameda County
- St. Mary's Center
- Vietnamese American Community Center of the East Bay
As one of the fastest growing states in the nation, California is experiencing profound demographic shifts. Among these is a growing elderly population, increasingly diverse in ethnicity and income levels. In the Bay Area, people aged 60 and older make up an increasing portion of the total population. Even today, Bay Area residents are already older on average than people in other parts of the country. In addition, as the economy worsens, there is a growing number of urban elderly poor. California leads the nation with the most elders living in poverty. Approximately 400,000 Californians 65 and older live in poverty, the majority of who are women and people of color. Oakland, in Alameda County, has the largest population of impoverished seniors in the state. These trends, combined with increases in chronic illness, the need for long-term care, and a financially constrained healthcare system, underscore the critical need to address the impact of these changes on Bay Area communities and on nonprofits serving senior populations.
Goal and Objectives
Founded in 2009 with the proceeds from the sale of the Matilda Brown Home for Elderly Women in Oakland, the EBFA has assets of approximately $10 million and an annual grantmaking program for this year of $354,000. Northern California's oldest nonprofit, The Ladies' Home Society of Oakland, ran the Matilda Brown Home from 1928 to 2007. Due to financial, infrastructure, and emerging issues related to the changing demographics and needs of seniors, the Society sold the facility and created a grantmaking entity that will continue the legacy of service to seniors.
Goal: Improve and maintain the physical and emotional health of older adults by supporting culturally competent programs that promote independence and provide services to seniors living in Alameda County.
Grants will be considered for applicants that address this goal by focusing on one or more of the following objectives:
Objective One: Expand and strengthen services that promote aging in place.
- Support safety net services, including food security, adult day services, and other social services for vulnerable seniors.
- Support and strengthen organizations that offer training and support to caregivers, including nurses, family members, and home health workers.
- Support and strengthen organizations that offer supportive services, such as transportation, shopping, meal preparation, housekeeping, and other services to maintain independence.
- Support policy and advocacy efforts that improve service delivery and enhance coordination between the nonprofit and public sector.
Objective Two: Improve access to healthcare services for older adults.
- Support access to healthcare services with an emphasis on chronic disease management that links medical care with health education, healthy eating, and physical activities.
- Support and strengthen community-based organizations that provide access to an array of health and social services designed to improve health and well-being and reduce social isolation.
Select organizations serving seniors in Alameda County have been invited to submit an application.
Call for Applications
Organizations invited to apply received information on January 5, 2015.
For more information regarding the East Bay Foundation on Aging, please contact Barbara Jwanouskos at firstname.lastname@example.com.

Mendenhall Glacier Rafting Tour from Juneau
- 3.5-hour rafting tour of Mendenhall Glacier from Juneau
- See the glacier from a totally unique perspective
- Your rafting guide will lead you through Class II and III rapids, making for a fun and exhilarating experience
- You choose if you'd like to help paddle or just sit back and enjoy the ride
- Alaskan-style snacks will be provided
- Suitable for all ages and no prior experience is required
- Hotel pickup and drop-off included
Recent Photos of This Tour
What You Can Expect
Your tour begins with a scenic drive up Mendenhall Valley. When you reach the shore of Mendenhall Lake, don protective raingear and a lifejacket, and board your raft. Each raft holds up to 12 and is rowed by an experienced guide. If you're looking for a hands-on experience, you may join a paddle-raft team.
Glide across the iceberg-studded lake, marveling at the 1.5-mile-wide (2.4 km) glacier, and set course downstream on a connected river. The 6-mile (9.6-km) route combines winding stretches of water with Class II and III whitewater rapids. The rapids are perfectly safe – exciting for beginners and experienced rafters, and appropriate for all ages.
During the journey, encounter river features such as Tourist Trap, Moon Flats and Pin Ball Alley. Watch for the photographer on shore who will snap your picture, capturing the thrill of your adventure. The raft lasts approx. 1.5 to 2 hours.
When the river feeds into the lake and the rapids end, soak in the views of the riverbank, lush forests and 7,000-foot (2,134-meter) mountains rising above the valley floor. Learn about the natural history of the river, and keep your eyes open for bald eagles, birds nesting in rocky cliffs, black bears, otters and seals, and salmon during spawning season.
At the finish point, celebrate with an Alaskan-style snack and toast your adventure with a cup of Martha's Mendenhall Madness (a strong wine cocktail) or hot cider. You can purchase the action photo of yourself as a lasting memento of a trip you'll never forget.

We had the best float trip ever. Beautiful scenery and amazing guide. We felt the tour people really talk care to see we were well taken care of. We will do it again. It was amazing
September 2014
Terrific experience with my 8 year old granddaughter - you put in at the lake close to Mendenhall, not right in front of it, but you still get gorgeous views. The short time on white water rapids was very fun. Our guide was terrific and knew a lot about the geography of the area. Customer service was outstanding - we accidentally got on the kayaking tour and missed our rafting tour. A rep from the company came to the rafting site, took us back to the ship, showed us exactly where to be to pick up the rafting tour and got us on the next one. I was so impressed that they were so accommodating and kind. Highly recommend.

There are many paths through this life.
PATH 1: It was the idea that inspired a book, and the book that inspired a movie. It was the movie that inspired a video game, and a video game that inspired a theme park. It was the theme park that inspired a different theme park, and it was that different theme park that inspired the first theme park to file a lawsuit against it for copyright infringement, so they broke even on the end of that one.
PATH 2: It was the idea that inspired a book, and the book that inspired a movie. It was the movie that inspired a board game, and the board game that inspired group of obsessive fans. And it was that group of obsessive fans that inspired the casual fans to go back and reconsider whether or not they were ever really fans to begin with.
PATH 3: It was the idea that inspired a book, and the book that inspired a movie that was so unlike the book that they had to change title before releasing it. It was that movie that inspired people to say, "They ruined the book!" and it was the people saying that the movie ruined the book that inspired the people who liked the movie to start running their mouthes. We stopped paying attention after that because those conversations are the worst, right?
PATH 4: It was the idea that would have inspired a book, had it occurred to a writer. But since it occurred to a dog, nothing ever came of it.

Ducks hold off spirited Stars comeback, take 1-0 series lead
Apr 17, 2014, 1:08 AM EDT
At the 30 minute mark of tonight's game, the Ducks looked like they'd cruise to victory.
But that's why they play the whole 60.
After building up a four-goal lead, the Ducks held on as the Stars rallied to come within one before ultimately losing 4-3 in Wednesday's series opener at the Honda Center in Anaheim.
Through the first half of tonight's game, the home team dominated. Anaheim scored three times in the opening frame, the first coming just 1:23 in when Kyle Palmieri put a backhand past Kari Lehtonen. Ducks captain Ryan Getzlaf made it 2-0 at the 12 minute mark, and Mathieu Perreault pushed the lead to three with just 30 seconds remaining in the frame, scoring the first of two Anaheim power play goals.
The second period started much like the first, as Matt Beleskey scored with the man advantage to make it 4-0 Ducks — but that's when things got interesting.
Dallas started to push, and was rewarded when Jamie Benn scored his first-ever playoff goal at the 16:36 mark. Less than two minutes later, Colton Sceviour scored to cut the Ducks lead to two, and the Stars went into the second intermission full of life, determined to push forward in the third.
And push they did.
Dallas scored again with just under seven minutes remaining in the game, as Tyler Seguin tipped home a Trevor Daley wrister to cut a seemingly insurmountable lead to just one. That led to some furious action down the stretch in which the Stars looked for an equalizer, but were unable to convert.
The frantic action at the end did come at a cost, though — Getzlaf was struck in the face by a Seguin shot with 16 seconds remaining. Bloodied, Getzlaf immediately left the playing surface and there was no immediate update as to his condition.
- pitpenguinsrulez - Apr 17, 2014 at 1:14 AM
I'm thinkin Getzalf just might have a broken jaw. Losing him would really benefit the Stars.
- stakex - Apr 17, 2014 at 1:55 AM
Wow, I had turned this game off after the first half because it was turning into a slaughter. Good for the Stars showing some fight like that, but you can't play that awful for the first half of the game an expect to win.
- ibieiniid - Apr 17, 2014 at 8:19 AM
I didn't stay up to watch this one (watched the other two though). Any Ducks fans with insight on how Andersen did? Weak goals, or no? Are you comfortable with him the rest of the way?
- flash8910 - Apr 17, 2014 at 11:10 AM
In general, I thought he did pretty good.
The first goal was a gift. It was a result of a pretty weak "too many men" penalty while the Ducks were already short handed. Even then it took a fortunately bounce where the puck bounced across the crease, and right on to the stick of Benn for a 5 on 3 PP goal.
The second goal wasn't the greatest, but the fault goes to several parties. It was a quick shot, but not the strongest. Freddie could have easily stop it. First of all, the D left a man open at the circle. Second, there was a D right in front of Freddie so I am not sure if Freddie even saw it.
The third was a good mid-air tip by Seguin. I don't think Freddie had a chance. Robi was able to tie up Seguin.
- ibieiniid - Apr 17, 2014 at 12:11 PM
thanks for the insight. are you a Ducks fan? if so, are you comfortable with him for this postseason, or at least this series?
I only ask because I've been a huge fan of his in Norfolk, but don't often stay up til 1AM on work nights. Rooting for Freddy big time.
- areaman714 - Apr 17, 2014 at 2:40 PM
The Hiller-hater type analysis would be "He gave up three softies"
- flash8910 - Apr 18, 2014 at 3:48 PM
I am absolutely comfortable with Freddie in goal. Hiller has always been tricky to deal with. He can be absolutely brilliant. Then he can let in ridiculously soft goals. Personally, I would rather stick with Freddie's consistency.
- areaman714 - Apr 17, 2014 at 2:38 PM
He played well. Stopped a lot of shots, left a couple of rebounds that didn't come back to bit him . . . made a few very good saves. He faced a lot of shots but wasn't really tested. In summary, he played well enough to start game two. I was at the game four rows from the ice.
- billiam55 - Apr 17, 2014 at 8:21 AM
impressed that dallas came back to within 1.
- tfilarski - Apr 17, 2014 at 8:54 AM
hopefully was just nerves for the stars in that first 30. looking to see a competitive series
- fpstratton - Apr 17, 2014 at 2:12 PM
Overall, the Ducks can't be too happy with this game. As talented and gifted as this team is, it just seems to lose concentration and focus. It barely allowed them to get past the eighth-seeded Stars in this game, but should it happen in the next round against, say, The Blackhawks or Avalanche, you can kiss the season good bye. Of further concern are the injuries to Beleski and Getzlaf. Game 2 should be captivating TV because the Stars seemed to figure a few things out the last period and a half. Lindy Ruff-coached teams don't quit, and this one didn't either.
- areaman714 - Apr 17, 2014 at 2:43 PM
Maybe. If it wasn't for a flukey high stick by Robidas and a very nebulous too many men call, the Ducks win that one going away . . .
- darksidecowboy - Apr 17, 2014 at 6:24 PM
With the majority of the Stars roster playing in their first playoff game it was no surprise they came out without the fight and intensity it took to get to the playoffs. The Ducks did the opposite and crushed the Stars in the first period. I like most fans thought game over, and contemplated Fridays game. However with Jamie Benn scoring his first playoff goal he led the team back within inches of an upset. I think with the new game jitters out of the way they'll rebound and pull off a much needed win. Friday game 3 – 2 Stars. This series will go to seven games, whoever has the momentum from game six will win this thing, GO STARS!!!

Amazing ocean views, elegant rooms and an attractive pool area make this 25-story tower a good choice for business travelers and vacationers alike. Every room ends in a wall of windows with views of the Bay of Panama, the skyscrapers of Punta Paitilla, and the Casco Viejo. The rooms are sleek, with white-marble floors and dark hardwood furniture, but can be rather cold. The top five floors hold 20 suites and the executive rooms, which share a lounge and business center. There is a bar on the fifth floor and a spacious restaurant near the lobby that serves an excellent breakfast buffet. The large pool next door, surrounded by tropical gardens, is a pleasnt spot to soak up the sun. It's a bit isolated, on busy Avenida Balboa, but offers easy access to the Cinta Costera.

This is an attractive hotel with large modern rooms with comfortable beds but overly heavy comforters (which we removed). The hotel is centrally located -- only a short cab ride to shopping malls or Panama City's tourist areas. The only minor negative was slow elevator service.

Interesting character. The only thing I would say is that his knees are strange. People don't stand like that - try it out yourself. It looks strained.

A banking relationship manager is an important liaison between customers and their institution. They must establish new client relationships and maintain existing relationships. Daily responsibilities for the banking relationship manager are as diverse as the customers being served. They typically handle customer issues with accounts, investment offerings, and loans; these issues require the manager be knowledgeable of their bank's products and services, as well as those offered by competitors. The banking relationship manager also performs a number of managerial responsibilities. They must accurately portray customer relations to their supervisors, research customer trends, and report these findings to the bank president or general manager.Read More...
In addition to these responsibilities, relationship managers often organize and make presentations at community gatherings to showcase their institution and its products; this helps generates awareness among potential new customers and conveys to current customers the bank's commitment to community involvement. These managers primarily work in banking institutions during regular business hours. A relationship manager may also be employed in various financial investment organizations, which may be subsidiaries or extensions of a home bank.
This position generally requires a bachelor's degree in banking, finance, management, or a related field. Previous employment in a related environment, often as a bank teller or in another entry-level position, is needed as well. Ongoing training and professional development may also be required.
Survey takers who work as Banking Relationship Managers typically report just a few professional skills. Those familiar with Financial Analysis, Sales and Customer Relationship Management will likely experience a boost in pay, earning between 6 percent to 19 percent above the national average. It is often found that people who know Customer Relationship Management are also skilled in Sales.
Median of all compensation (including tips, bonus, and overtime) by years of experience.
The average beginner in this position makes around $65K, but folks who have been around for five to 10 years see a markedly higher median salary of $87K. On average, Banking Relationship Managers make $92K following one to two decades on the job. Banking Relationship Managers who have racked up more than two decades of experience report lower incomes overall; the average sum for this crowd comes out to only $85K.

How Do Different Models Of Foreign Exchange Settlement Influence The Risks And Benefits Of Global Liquidity Management?
Date Added: Aug 2009
Format: PDF
Large, international banking groups have sought to centralize their cross-currency liquidity management: liquidity shortages in one currency are financed using liquidity surpluses in another currency. The nature of risks to financial stability emerging from global liquidity management depends on how these foreign exchange transactions settle. The authors analyze these risks in a game of asymmetric information. The main result is that the transition from local to global liquidity management, and better co-ordination in settlement of foreign exchange transactions, has two effects. On the one hand, the likelihood rises that payments are delayed beyond their due date. On the other hand, solvency shocks are less likely to be passed on to other banks.

HTC One mini 2Compare8 reviewThe One mini 2 sports a much smaller chassis than the One (M8), housing a 4.5" display with 720x1280 pixels of resolution. The rest of the specs make it a decent midranger, too, as the munchkin sports a 1.2 GHz quad-core Snapdragon 400 processor, 1 GB of RAM, and 16 GB of internal storage (12 GB user-available). This time HTC has provided a microSD card slot, too.

The handset comes with a 4.3-inch display with a resolution of 540 x 960 pixels (qHD). This might sound low on paper, but on this small screen, it works out to the very sharp pixel density of 256ppi. Best of all, the Moto E runs on the latest Android 4.4 KitKat. The little new Moto features a Snapdragon 200 system chip with 1.2GHz dual-core Cortex A7-based processor and an Adreno 302 GPU. There's 1GB of RAM, and a scarce 4GB of internal storage (only 2.2GB available to end users!) that you can, luckily, expand via microSD cards.

Samsung Galaxy K zoomCompare8 reviewThe Samsung Galaxy K zoom has drawn inspiration from the Galaxy S5 as it features the flagship's distinct perforated pattern and shimmering finish. What's new, however, is the dedicated camera button on the side, which is a must-have for any camera-centric handset.The screen on the Samsung Galaxy K zoom measures 4.8 inches in diagonal. It is Super AMOLED with resolution of 720 by 1280 pixels. Under the hood of the Samsung Galaxy K zoom beats a hexa-core SoC – an Exynos 5 model featuring a 1.3 GHz quad-core Cortex-A7 setup handling lighter tasks and a 1.7 GHz dual-core Cortex-A15 CPU which kicks in when extra power is needed. Two gigs of RAM have also been thrown in for good measure. On-board storage capacity is limited to only 8 gigs, but a microSD card slot allows that to be expanded with cards of at least 64 gigabytes. As for the most exciting part of the equation – the device's camera – Samsung has chosen to go with a 20.7MP BSI CMOS camera sensor that is 1/2.3" in size. Furthermore, the Galaxy K zoom packs a powerful xenon flash accompanied by an assistive LED light, just like its predecessor.+ View Specs

these paddles are great, but I personally with I would've gotten a bigger size. They're not too much bigger than my hand, so do not pull as much water and i would like them to. However, great quality and work great.

What A difference!
Terrific paddles! The versatility and design are well-thought out. Pulling back and breaststroke is more fundamentally sound than with other "standard" paddles. Getting them for my wife and kids.

Love the tech Paddles
These paddles allow a quicker better grab of the water for steady resistance pulling. I really enjoy using them.
swim paddles
They help with my "grabbing"the water. If you have bad hand entry, it can pull you off balance. I do recommend using them.
new swimmer
Breaststroke paddles
I bought these paddles only to use with breaststroke pulling drills. They appear not to distort the natural pulling motion of the stroke. They are a little thicker than I thought they would be, which may restrict the feel of the water. Overall, very happy with the paddles.

IM Tech Paddles
I have used these paddles extensively in all four competitive strokes. They improve the catch very well in freestyle, backstroke and breaststroke. They also help improve distance per stroke. The only drawback I see is the difficulty in performing the butterfly. Make sure the paddles are tight to your hands. I would highly recommend these paddles for competitive swimmers.

Glorified Hand Paddles
These aren't anything new. Hand paddles with a new name doesn't excite me or make me want to buy a set. So what, they are interchangeable, what good will this do me? I suppose if I somehow get inverted while swimming, I will stay on course.
Size: Feels too small

Mesolift is composed of over 54 ingredients including:
When can I see the results?
The improvement is progressive and cumulative. The result is visible from the first session: the skin is more hydrated and toned. However, more treatments are required to maintain the skin. Mesolift is performed in an initial series of two - four treatments spaced four weeks apart. After that, one treatment every three - four months is recommended. Effects are cumulative.
What are the side effects?
You may experience some bruising and swelling as well as some soreness in the treated area for up to 48 hours after the treatment.

6 Celebs You Don't Want Crashing Your Wedding
What do Justin Bieber, President Obama, Taylor Swift and Queen Elizabeth II have in common? They have all made headlines this year crashing weddings. While many brides wouldn't be angry if these celebs crashed their wedding day — check out our list of celebrities that you don't want showing up unannounced at your wedding.
Microphone-Stealing Kanye WestIf Kanye West crashed your wedding, your dad better hold on to that microphone a little bit tighter during his toast. Kanye could try and grab it from him -- just like he did to Taylor Swift in 2009.
Tom Cruise Jumping onto Your Sweetheart TableJust what you and your new hubby want -- Tom Cruise jumping on tables during your five-course dinner or his Scientology crew joining in on the dance floor. Well, maybe that would be funny to see.
#Winning Charlie SheenYour day does not need Charlie Sheen announcing he is #winning all over your reception. Charlie, you can't win at everything.
Take the Keys Away From Lindsay LohanIf Lindsay showed up at your wedding, it's immediately time to light those sparklers for your send-off. Just make sure your chauffeur is not LiLo -- she doesn't have the best driving record.
When Shaun White Celebrates -- He Pulls Fire AlarmsShaun White was arrested this year after getting out of control celebrating with family and friends in Nashville. You don't want the fire department to show up when Shaun pulls all the fire alarms! (Well, maybe your bridesmaids would want this).
Simon, Don't Judge Me!Simon Cowell would make his opinions known on everything from your wedding dress, to the band. Let's be honest, he'd probably even find something wrong with the candy bar.
