Most of us have kids. And obviously we like mountain biking. So how and what can we do to get them interested in the social and health benefits that riding a mountain bike can bring? After all, we need the next generation of 30-something riders to start somewhere!
And who's that sniggering at the back, when I say social and health benefits in the same sentence as mountain biking?
A while back I was asked by Louis (aka Uncle Riotous) for advice on this very subject (sorry for the slow response Louis). This week I had another email, from a mother who's 14 year old son is keen to get out there, looking for organised mountain bike rides — i.e. a challenge for him, but with support there if needed.
What to do?
Well first of all, who am I to advise? My own son said to me after my collarbone accident 'Daddy, when I grow up? I'm not going to ride a bike!' Sobering I can tell you — now I know my riding doesn't just affect me…
So take this advice in the spirit it's intended and use it as a pointer to further discovery. It's not definitive but just covers a few of the points that seem obvious to me. Remember, you're responsible for your kid's safety, not me!
First off, I'll assume your child actually wants to ride with you. If they don't, forget it because pushing them to try it when they don't want to is just going to end in tears — yours or theirs. The best you can do in that circumstance I would suggest would be to ride easy paths with them, down the park for example or across somewhere like Bookham Common which is flat and gives the sensation of being in the wilds without actually being far from civilisation.
If you get on fine with that, try somewhere further afield like Alice Holt Park near Farnham. We've been and not only are there loads of trails in the woods and a basic visitor centre with loos and refreshment but there's loads of climbing frames and 3D sculptures littered every 500 yards or so along the trails for kids to clamber over and keep them amused for hours. Recommended.
As your kids get older I guess you can gradually introduce them to more arduous challenges. Remember though that kids get tired very quickly doing this sort of thing. Not only is the terrain hard work but many kids bikes are either unsuited or hopelessly heavy to manhandle across rough ground. Keep things short and fun!
Personally, although my own kids are quite young I've realised that no matter how enthusiastic I may be it will be some time before they're showing me up off-road, assuming they want to do it at all, as my son's comment illustrates.
But what about that email from the mother who has reached the point where her son is ready to head off under his own steam, either alone or with company? She rightly wants to make sure he's in safe company but at the same time knows he is ready for the challenge.
Well, organised rides are an option but the problem really is lack of them. Actually, the problem is more like one of liability I think when it comes to organised rides. We are not a club ourselves, just a group of riders heading roughly in the same direction at roughly the same time. By no means are our rides organised. But to offer to take someone under the age of 18 out for a ride is a whole different ball game and we would have to walk away if the situation arose for fear of legal repurcussions if the worst happened.
It's a very sad world unfortunately but that is why I think there are so few organised rides available. What options are there?
Well, here's a few suggestions:
- There are lots of 'off-road' rides organised by charities such as the British Heart Foundation which might be of interest even though they may not offer much of a technical challenge. But they are properly organised and supervised which is a start.
- Why not try getting in touch with an organisation like the Scouts or some of the bike advocacy groups like the CTC, who at least might be able to point you toward further help?
- Contact local bike shops for advice — Cycleworks or Head for the Hills spring to mind, again they could give useful pointers.
- Investigate companies that offer MTB courses where they show you around an area for a day and teach you bike skills etc. OK, it's a one off event and costs money but it could prove an invaluable source for a young rider.
- Learn basic bike skills — a cheap source of info here is bike magazines, both real (print based) and online. Learning how to brake, balance and turn your bike sounds basic but are skills which you will never be sorry you learned properly.
More general advice for kids getting 'in' to mountain biking applies equally to adult beginners too:
- Learn basic bike maintenance. You should know how to mend a puncture, fix a chain or make minor adjustments in case the need arises and it's best to know beforehand than to find out 'as you go along'.
- Carry a hydration pack with a good supply of water, snacks, multitool, puncture patches and pump plus lights if there's the slightest chance of you returning in the dusk/dark.
- Wear a helmet that fits, clear sports glasses to protect against mud and unseen branches and gloves to protect the hands — not just for warmth but in case you fall off! It's a small thing but ripped hands are easily avoided and will make any situation much more serious if they are.
- Never ride alone. I found out the hard way how potentially life saving that point is.
- Remember that mobile phone reception is unreliable (putting it politely) in the Surrey Hills. It may not be the get out of jail card you think it is.
- If you're unsure of a section you are about to ride, get off and survey it or walk it — better that than a pointless accident.
- If your friends mock you, find different friends. Until you reach our age, by which time our friends have earned the right to make whatever unhelpful comment springs to mind first.
I don't want to overplay the perception of danger though. Mountain biking is a fantastic sport which brings you into contact with all sorts, nearly all of whom are decent, helpful and friendly. If you take the trouble to ask, someone will take the trouble to help. Mountain biking will keep you fit or get you fitter, you'll discover some amazing places right on your doorstep and you'll never look at mud the same way again!
Thanks for reading and I hope this has been of some use. Have fun!!

Vivica Fox picture (via)
Vivica Fox Sex Tape Video Scandal! Actress Vivica Fox is the second person in 2008 hit by the infamous sex videos right after Chua Soi Lek, the former Malaysian Health Minister. But now like Chua who fell down to be a victim of the political sabotage when being filmed by the spycameras, Vivica Fox was taped using a handphone by the man who had sexual activities with her. Excerpts from this post on SandraRose.com
There are strong rumors about a real sex tape floating around featuring a well-known actress (not Ciara) giving head to a male friend. Certain well-placed sources in Atlanta have seen the tape and a copy of it is currently in the hands of the Atlanta police.
The B-list actress does not live in Atlanta but she spent time here recently. And word is she may have been drunk when the tape was made. I'm told the B-list actress is pulling out all stops to make sure this tape does not hit the Internets. The problem is, the police are emailing the tape to each other and to friends against department policy.
Excerpts from another post also on SandraRose.com
#Tags: vivica fox, sex tape scandal, chua soi lek, sex scandal
It was a tough decision for her to make, but V-103's Porsche Foxx confirmed that Vivica Fox appears in a controversial sex tape that is currently making the rounds.
In the tape, an apparently inebriated Vivica can be seen on her knees servicing a male friend who surreptitiously taped the encounter on his cell phone. Allegedly the man, who lives in Atlanta, emailed the tape to friends who emailed it to Vivica. She quickly forwarded the tape to a friend at the Atlanta police department.
It isn't known if Vivica filed an official complaint with the police or if she asked her police friend to handle the situation privately. At any rate, men tattle worse than females - especially here in the ATL - so the tape got out.

Solid Pine with a classic floating baffle allows this cabinet to resonate in harmony with your speakers. Huge warm tones, even at lower volumes!
Solid Pine:
A word about Vintage Fender Cabinet Construction. Info by Greg Gagliano. (Amp Historian)
"From circa 1972 to the early 1980s, the cabinets were no longer made from solid pine boards, but cheaper laminated, multi-piece pine boards. Each side of the cabinet was made from several pieces about three or four inches wide, glued side-to-side, to make up a plank the depth of the cabinet. These laminated cabs were not finger joined, but rabbet joined. The baffle board on these rabbet joined cabinets was mortised into the sides and bottom (i.e. - not removable) to hold the whole thing together. That's why these post-1972 cabinets have the grill cloth stretched across a frame that is attached by a velcro-like system to the baffle. CBS almost certainly went to this construction method to save money, though at the expense of overall quality."

Start to finish a 5-star experience. Great communication. Efficient process. All materials are top-of-the line. Cabinet design, workmanship, and tone are the best.
Posted by W. Marsh on 5th Apr 2013
After looking for a month to find someone to build me a custom 1x12 cabinet for my vintage Bandmaster head, Paul was the only one I could find who would do it at a reasonable price. Not only that, but he offered free shipping and didn't charge any extra to change the dimensions.
Paul was great with communication. He always answered my emails right away and kept in the touch throughout the build. He even sent me a few pictures before shipping it.
Upon receiving the cab, I was pleasantly surprised at how light it was, even with a speaker in it. Very easy to carry from gig to gig. This cab was exactly what I was looking for. It sounds and looks GREAT. The wood even had and still has that fresh cut smell. Wonderful! If you're looking for a practical, affordable solution to your custom cabinet woes, Rocket Cab is it! After gigging with it for the past few weeks, I am even more pleased and have gotten many compliments on the look and especially the tone of my rig. Very happy!
Posted by Bluzcat on 5th Mar 2013
I ordered this cab on a recommendation from a friend, who like me is a complete tone snob. I got the cab, and it looked great, but was missing one of the options that I had ordered. I emailed Paul and let him know, and he showed why he has a good reputation. He made things right, and then some. It's great to see that there are still some people that put customer service and satisfaction over all else! I equipped the cab with two Warehouse Guitar Speakers 10C/S speakers, and the cab sounds great. Not too boomy, great mids, and crystal clear highs. Can't wait till the speakers are broken in. The craftmanship of the cabinet looks great. I ended up replacing the wiring that ships with it for some higher grade audio cable, but I'm sure the standard cables are good enough for most discriminating ears.
Posted by Unknown on 12th Mar 2012
I love this cab. I have 2 WGS C10/s speakers in there for a 4ohm load at 150W handling capacity. Running a Dual Showman or a Two-Rock (85 – 100 watts) through it.
It sounds huge and takes pedals very well. The cab is lightweight and a perfect high wattage solution without being too big and heavy. Thanks for the good communication and for meeting your quoted lead time.

For a while now, lots of preachers and pundits have been lamenting the feminization of the church. This begins with demographic studies that reflect a greater female participation than male, and continues with a condemnation of the broader "Omega male" culture that is giving men the permission to stay passive - and stay home on Sundays. Some prominent churches and ministries seem entirely predicated on the mission to draw men back into the fold by reinforcing "biblical" male roles and r … [Read more...]

Conceptual Framework
Theme: Empathic Facilitators of Learning
The College of Education at Central State University is committed to the preparation of teachers who are effective in serving as empathic facilitators of learning for diverse students. They understand the value of education, and appreciate the diligence required to develop the competences they need to become teachers who can function effectively as empathic facilitators of learning. We believe that a teacher who vicariously experiences students in their situations would be in a vantage position to more sensitively and successfully facilitate learning.
The programs within the teacher education unit are undergirded and oriented by a Conceptual Framework. The theme of the Conceptual Framework is "Empathic Facilitators of Learning". The theme is infused in the programs within the unit. Pre-service teachers are systematically oriented to deeply appreciate the foundational importance of empathy in teaching. Empathy enables them to appreciate that the impact of psychological, cultural, social, and economic factors on students and their readiness for learning is not merely academic. They understand, in more realistic or existential terms, the influence of these factors on students as individuals, and as a collective. Empathy is vicarious experiencing that moves one to take action. Empathic facilitators of learning do not merely cognitively identify with or affectively relate to students, they actively care –– to the extent that they take professionally necessary or appropriate action. Candidates are guided to develop a level of empathy or action-oriented compassion that inclines them to go beyond tokenistic sympathy for students to taking appropriate action necessary for addressing a situation. The teacher preparation community at Central State University believes, for instance, that the stubborn challenge of "closing the achievement gap" requires teachers who have developed a level of empathy or actionable compassion that can move them to take constructive actions designed to result in meaningful learning gains for students. Within the College of Education, empathy is emphasized in order to obviate the preparation of teachers who are academically competent, but may be insouciant or even self-absorbed, egoistic, or alexithymic.
However, for teachers to be effective in facilitating learning for diverse learners, they need more than empathy. Hence, the Conceptual Framework of the College of Education has five Elements that serve as programmatic pillars in our teacher education: Knowledge, Pedagogical Skills, Dispositions, Diversity and Critical Reflection. Guided by the Conceptual Framework, programs are designed to prepare candidates to be effective in serving as empathic facilitators of learning for diverse students.
Elements of the Conceptual Framework
Each program within the teacher education unit is designed to provide learning experiences that enable candidates to develop the knowledge they need to be effective as empathic facilitators of learning. Candidates are guided to develop knowledge through four main areas of learning experiences: liberal arts, content studies, foundations of education, and pedagogical content knowledge. The broad suite of courses in liberal arts enables candidates to develop competences in reading, writing, speaking, mathematics, natural sciences, social and behavioral sciences, health and physical wellness.
The liberal arts component of each program affords candidates opportunity to develop critical thinking skills and broaden their social and cultural perspectives. It also provides opportunities in which candidates learn about issues in environment, economy, technology, multiculturalism, globalization, and social responsibility. Each program provides opportunities for students to develop a strong content knowledge of the subject for which they seek licensure. Candidates systematically participate in learning experiences that enable them to enhance their knowledge of the theories, principles, and methods of inquiry associated with the subject area. Also, candidates are provided opportunities to broaden and deepen their knowledge about the foundations of education. They learn about the history and philosophy of education, and about the goals and structure of schooling, as well as the principles and research that provide insights about the nature of learners and learning. Through the learning experiences in foundations of education, candidates develop a useful gestalt of education, as well as working knowledge that helps to prepare them for service as empathic facilitators of learning. In addition, each program within the unit provides opportunities for candidates to develop pedagogical content knowledge – the knowledge that informs and guides planning and implementation of instruction, and assessment of learning. Candidates develop capabilities for identifying the learning needs of students, for assessing their own abilities to meet the needs, and for coordinating resources necessary for addressing the needs.
Pedagogical Skills
Programs within the teacher education unit are designed to provide structured and systematic opportunities through which candidates develop a rich repertoire of teaching skills. The programs provide varied learning experiences that enable candidates to develop strategies for diagnostic and responsive teaching. Candidates learn strategies for simultaneously situating teaching in local and global contexts. Cognizant of the reality that technology is ubiquitous, and an integral part of culture, programs are designed to expose candidates to emerging technological tools for teaching and learning. The programs provide opportunities for candidates to develop capability for integrating technology creatively and competently in instruction. Each program emphasizes assessment and evidence-based decision-making in teaching, as a hallmark of empathic facilitation of learning.
The teacher education unit regards dispositions as a fundamental professional ethic for empathic facilitators of learning. Programs in the unit provide opportunities for candidates to develop dispositions they need to function as empathic facilitators of learning. Candidates learn to work with students and colleagues in a fair and equitable manner. They are encouraged to develop a habit of mind that inclines them to believe that they can make a positive difference in the lives of students, as well as in their communities. They develop appreciation for the principle of meliorism – that communities and society generally can be improved through human effort. Consistent with the melioristic principle, candidates subscribe to the belief that all students can learn, and they demonstrate the self-efficacy needed to put the belief in practice. Programs in the unit provide learning experiences that enable candidates to develop ethical and legal consciousness, and demonstrate a commitment to the tenets of professionalism. They develop an orientation for lifelong learning and continual improvement, and learn to carry themselves with decorum in their interactions with students and colleagues.
Programs in the unit provide a variety of learning experiences designed to prepare candidates to be effective in working with diverse students. Student diversity manifests in a number of ways, for instance, race, ethnicity, socio-economic status, culture, age, gender, aptitude, interest, learning style. Opportunities are provided for candidates to develop a healthy sensitivity and responsiveness to diversity. They learn strategies for designing and implementing culturally responsive and developmentally appropriate learning experiences for students. Programs within the unit take full advantage of the geographically strategic location of our university to provide field and clinical experiences that prepare candidates to be effective in working with students from rural, suburban, and urban milieux.
Critical Reflection
The teacher preparation community at Central State University conceptualizes critical reflection as the process by which empathic facilitators of learning identify the assumptions on which their professional actions or behaviors are based; question the historical and cultural bases of the assumptions; consider the appropriateness or quality of the assumptions; and develop alternate lines of action that may be more effective or more fair. The overarching purpose of critical reflection is deepening of personal or institutional learning, and improvement. We believe that the ability to meaningfully engage in critical reflection is necessary for effective work as empathic facilitator of learning. Programs in the unit provide opportunities for candidates to develop critical reflection capabilities. Candidates develop the habit of situating and evaluating professional practices in historical, cultural, and organizational contexts. They learn to examine personal, ethical, and political dimensions of teaching with a view to exploring possibilities for improving practice. The Central State teacher preparation community believes that critical reflection enhances the deliberateness, thoughtfulness, and quality of professional decisions or actions.

I just picked up a bottle of OGD 114 for $20. I'm wondering, how does it stack up to my daily pour of EWB NAS 86? The EW is my go to bourbon during frugal times. Never had the OGD.
Also, would you consider $20 a good price for that bottle?
Wag more.
Bark less.
"Every bottle is its own learning experience." -- Sensei Ox-sama
One thing to remember about NAS products, especially good ones, is that they typically contain whiskeys of several different ages. Because it is a straight and NAS, everything in the bottle must be at least 4-years-old, but mixed in could be some 6, 8, 10, 12 -- who knows?
That's an example of blending as an art, but we don't want to call it 'blending' lest it be confused with GNS-packed 'blended whiskey.' Brands like OGD can do this better than Jim Beam white because Jim Beam white is so huge, it's inevitably mostly 4- to 5-year-old, with a dollop of older stuff here and there.
My sense of Beam, and Daniel's the same way, is that pretty much they have to start dumping on the whiskey's birthday. They have some wiggle room to let some age a bit longer, but not much.
Because they don't make much OGD, they probably make it infrequently. My guess would be once a year, and they might make two days of it, maybe three. Then they spend another three or four days making all of the rye whiskey for the year.
In both cases they don't want to make too little so they tend to make too much, which means they always have some to keep aging at the end of the year.
Setting up the distillery to make a different recipe is like a car factory re-tooling for a new model. They don't want to do it any more often than they have to. If they're running OGD and the rye more than once year then it's once each season, i.e., twice a year.
OGD is a win-win. It's a good value for us but it's actually very profitable for Beam. It sells for more than Jim white, is maybe slightly more expensive to make, but they spend zero on marketing it. Obviously they make a lot more on Beam because of the volume, but OGD has a better margin.

Thanks for the responses. Here's the deal. I gave up bourbon for Lent (partly as a sacrifice and partly just to prove to myself that I could) and have been stocking my bar with a bottle a week for my Easter Sunday tasting. The OGD 114 was this past weekends addition.
Man this is a long Lent this year.

If you grew up fat like I did, very likely there are things that you missed out on due to weight issues. Now is the time to replicate your missed experience. Didn't get to go to prom? Buy yourself a lovely gown, get an elegant hairdo, and have a night to remember on the town! Couldn't wear a fashionable bathing suit? Go ahead and splurge on bikini. You deserve it!!
Work outs go faster and are fun
When I haven't seen the scale move in a while I kick up my work outs adding two or 3 extra a week
I work out 4 times a week with my Wii active or my Wii active active more work outs

Let's put this out there right now: Governor Arnold Schwarzenegger loves to fly in private jets. Even before he made California history as 'the most travelling governor", flying almost twice-weekly to Sacramento and other locales, his movie fame and association with the Kennedy family made such luxuries a weekly occurrence. According to the site TerraPass, Schwarzenegger and his crew could dump as much as 8,700 pounds of carbon dioxide into the atmosphere for a single one-hour flight from Santa Monica to Sacramento. Granted, the guy has security needs that most of us would never dream of — but the fact is , if you're going to take a green position, you better back up your talk with some action. As Al Gore found out last week, there are always people watching ready to jump at any opportunity to discredit your leadership.
In light of this, the Governor is readying plans to offset his jet travel. From the article,
"Spokesman Aaron McLear said the governor is developing a program that would calculate his carbon emissions from Jan. 1, 2007, forward. Cal-EPA says the governor will work with the Pacific Forest Trust to calculate the cost of his carbon emissions, including the damage associated with the crew, staff and anyone else traveling with him. The Pacific Forest Trust is included in the California Climate Action Registry. The cost of Schwarzenegger's travel then will be "annually invested" in sustainable forest management projects, starting with the Fred M. van Eck Forest Foundation, which has 2,100 acres in Humboldt County."
Whether you think this is enough, or that the man is over-reaching his use of such transport, at least some recognition and addressing of the impact is occurring. It would behoove other people in a position of using private jets for travel (ahem, Trump, Travolta) to follow a similar program. Offsetting is a good start, Arnold. Now let's see if you can find a way to reduce your travel needs as well. Be the change.

Re: ahh..****..fedor signed a $5,000,000 contract with heros?
Its obvious some people don't have a concept of national pride. Would you guys give up something you believe in just to please a bunch of foreigners that will have neither positive nor negative effect on your life?
Do you guys realize that the world is much bigger then just the US? Do you think that in Fedors world he will not be respected and admired and looked upon as a legend? How ignorant can we americans be?
He wants to Represent HIS country in HIS sport (Combat Sambo) obviously that is too much for the UFC, so as anybody would do, he will go else where to do business. Its logical and makes business sense for Fedor.
Get over it, if you are mad write Dana and tell him to accept the terms. Why should Fedor bow to Dana? Because he is the UFC? Stop. It sucks but thats how business is, if it don't make sense don't do it. Bottom line.

On The Street……..Meatpacking District, New York
CommentsClose comment
24 comments
Yawn. I saw this outfit on the train about 5 times this morning. The subject is very attractive but I dont think her style is that different from most 20 something women in New York.
What a hottie.
I don't care if what she's wearing is designer or not…every thousand girls who shop at old navy and the gap look like this.
i like that . . lovely
Great legs – boring outfit.
Nice glasses
She somehow manage to wear short shorts with flat sandals. It must be the legs;)
Why do they call it the meatpacking district?
Well, until this season, the rule was that the shorter somehting is, the flatter the shoe must be. I was pretty shocked to see heels with shorts become so commonplace this summer.
I agree with the chorus. Fairly plan and common looking. Sunglasses are nice, tho. I know it's hot and nasty outside, but she looks a little cold.
It used to be literally a district where they had meatpacking plants, but now the real estate value has gone through the roof and people like Alexander McQueen and fashionable flats are opening up there; it is the new Soho I hear. Her outfit is kinda boring; I wear it to class everyday, but give her a break, its hotter than it is in Texas right now!
Love the blog – agree with the other posters. This girl looks cute, but eh – nothing special.
I really wish you'd feature more women in professional clothing. Most of the women you shoot are casual, wearing things that would absolutely not pass muster in my office. They're lovely, but I'm always looking for inspiration for office clothing.
I agree, this isn't a very unique outfit. But to anonymous, there's nothing wrong with GAP!
She looks like any anonymous trend follower. I live in Alabama, and there are throngs just like her here. I see no personal style in her outfit. I do like the shades, though, as I am always enamored of a great pair of aviators.
She looks like most Australian girls who live on the coast. And no matter what they are wearing, flip-flops (thongs to us) seem to go with it.
flip flops are the worst
She is very cute, she is nicely put together, maybe not different, or trend setting but most people aren't. She is cute, has nice legs, nice smile….looks good in shorts and I love her top….so why not just say, she is one of many and those many sure do look nice.
meh. i'd probably wear it but i wouldn't expect to get attention.
She looks very Swedish. And being from there, I would know.
I agree. She looks Swedish to the extreme.
She is swedish for sure. Evry girl in sweden looks like that and dresses like that.. Sooo…
modern, and the most important thing: simple! I like very much the combination of two t-shirts.
The most important thing is her attitude! so fresh and young!
She looks like a typical it-girl, whether she's American or wherever she comes from, they all look like that. Much too tan to go with their blonde hair, aviators, boy shorts, etc etc etc.
I love many of the people you've photographed, but some of them I just can't see anything special with.
beautiful super

How to Find North Dakota Death RecordsEdit This Page
From FamilySearch Wiki
How to Find United States Deaths North Dakota Deaths
North Dakota received statehood in 1889, and was created from Dakota Territory. In 1893, the government passed a law requiring registration of deaths. This law was later repealed and then reenacted in 1899. General compliance began in 1923, making registration consistent.
Next Step: When did the death occur?

In 1889, North Dakota was created a state from Dakota Territory. From July 1, 1893 thru 1899 records may be available at the County Clerk District Court offices. Search for death information in other records.
- 1899 - North Dakota law required counties to record deaths, this law was repealed and in 1923 registration of Deaths became consistent
- 1899 - North Dakota law required counties to record deaths, this law was repealed and in 1923 registration of Deaths became consistent
Deaths from 1899-1923
Statewide registration of deaths began in 1923. All copies of prior (1923) death records were required to be sent to the State Department of Vital Records. Many counties retained a copy of the records.
- 1899 - North Dakota law required vital records to be filed with township clerks.

Nokia prepping gaming phone for Monday?
updated 02:00 pm EDT, Fri October 10, 2008
Nokia N-Gage Teaser
Nokia is potentially gearing up to launch another device at the start of next week, a new teaser shows. The page shows an image of what appears to be a 7610 Supernova but says the device will "unlock" by about 8PM on the 13th, suggesting an evening phone launch. Some members of the online media have also received an invite for a similar timeframe and have been told the event relates to N-Gage, though a series of promo videos connected to the event (shown below) don't mention the Nokia gaming service.
Speculation suggests that the phone may be a full Symbian Series 60 (S60) device rather than one of the company's regular, S40 devices, though the 7610 shown in the image is a standard S40 phone. Nokia has so far focused N-Gage on S60 handsets.
No recent leaks have pointed to an imminent Nseries phone launch. [via The Nokia Blog]

|Personality related effects of nicotine, mode of application, and expectancies on performance, emotional states, and desire for smoking.
MedLine Citation:
|PMID: 9489934 Owner: NLM Status: MEDLINE
|Three separate factors relevant to nicotine effects have been investigated in this experiment in combination: the experimentally induced expectation about receiving a sham or a nicotine cigarette, the mode of application of nicotine by a tablet, by a cigarette or not at all, while the belief of receiving the nicotine via smoking was held constant in each condition (by nicotine or sham smoking), and the personality factors of extraversion or neuroticism, respectively. Ninety-six healthy female student smokers were tested in a 2 x 3 x 2 factorial group comparison design with respect to critical flicker fusion and reaction time performance as well as to self-ratings on emotional and cortical arousal and ratings on desire for further cigarettes (satisfaction from smoking a single cigarette containing either 0.8 mg nicotine or a sham cigarette). In each case, a tablet containing either nicotine or placebo was administered together with the cigarette. The results showed that performance is sensitive to interaction effects of instruction and mode of application. The instruction of sham or nicotine assignment when applied with a congruent treatment (sham with a sham cigarette, or nicotine with a nicotine cigarette) both increased performance, while groups with discordant information showed worse performance. The administration of nicotine by tablets or by smoking differs considerably, nicotine cigarettes causing a stronger increase in emotional arousal, tablets rather a decrease or no effect, while the true placebo condition increases arousal due to deprivation effects. This leads to an enhancement of the nicotine effect with real smoking and to reactive increase of effort when sham smoking. The instruction affects alertness, the nicotine illusion leading to a lower reduction in subjective reports of alertness and concentration than that observed with the sham instruction. Neurotic subjects become more anxious and tense with nicotine cigarettes than stable subjects. This effect is less pronounced or even reversed with tablets. No interactions with instructions are observed with neuroticism. Extraverts tend to show a decrease in performance but an increase in alertness with the instruction of receiving nicotine as opposed to the sham expectation, whereas introverts behave the opposite way. Subjective ratings on arousal seem to follow the law of transmarginal inhibition, with extraverts being pushed from low arousal to high and introverts vice versa by the mere expectation.

NEW YORK, N.Y. - U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) today returned cultural artifacts to the Government of Egypt. The 79 ancient artifacts came from a region in Egypt known as Ma'adi, which is an archeological site in Egypt identifying an ancient civilization dating back to 3,900 - 3,600 B.C.
The objects were returned in a repatriation ceremony this morning by Peter J. Smith, ICE special agent-in-charge in New York, and were received on behalf of the Egyptian Government by the Honorable Ambassador Hussein Mubarak, Consul General for Egypt in New York, and Mr. Attiya Radwan, the Head of the Central Department for Upper Egypt Monuments.
In October 2006, ICE received a tip from the Art Loss Register, a London-based company with offices in New York, about the sale of the Ma'adi artifacts to a U.S. antiquities dealer. A subsequent ICE investigation resulted in the federal criminal conviction of Edward George Johnson, who pleaded guilty to the charge of possessing and selling stolen antiquities.
"The Egyptian stolen artifacts, regardless of its money value, have always been important to the Egyptian people because they form a part of their culture and identify as well as its role in the effort to unravel and piece together some of the mysterious parts of the ancient Egyptian history and civilization which is part of the common heritage of mankind," said Ambassador Hussein Mubarak, Consul General for Egypt in New York. "Egypt is grateful to the U.S. government for the repatriation of the Egyptian stolen artifacts."
The items returned were seized by ICE in a 2006 investigation, and are among 370 pre-dynastic artifacts discovered missing from the Ma'adi museum in Cairo during the summer of 2002. The theft, from one of the museum's storage magazines, was reported to the republic of Egypt's Supreme Council of antiquities (SCA) and to police worldwide.
The ICE investigation revealed that the Ma'adi artifacts were fraudulently sold by Edward George Johnson, who was an active duty Chief Warrant officer in the U.S. Army assigned to the U.S. Embassy in Cairo, Egypt in 2002. He brought the items to the U.S. and sold them to a dealer claiming that they were family property dating back to the early 20th century.
In 2003, the owner of Sands of Time Antiquities, then located in Atlanta, Sue McGovern, purchased approximately 100 Egyptian antiquities from Johnson, who said he had inherited the large collection from his grandfather who had worked in Egypt in the mining industry in the late 1920's and early 1930's. In fact, Johnson had used his diplomatic status to illegally ship the Ma'adi artifacts he had acquired in Egypt to the U.S., in violation of Egypt's export laws, diplomatic protocol as outlined in the Vienna Convention, and U.S. law for smuggling the artifacts into the country.
On buying the collection, McGovern discovered inside some of the pieces, paper from a 1932 calendar with markings and numbers indicative of excavation notes (plot numbers, etc.).
In 2004, she sold some of the pieces to other antiquities dealers in New York, Holland and London, where an expert on the Ma'adi excavations recognized that the story behind their acquisition was false and notified the dealer.
In July 2008, Johnson admitted that his story about his grandfather was false and pleaded guilty to a misdemeanor charge of possession and selling of stolen antiquities. He was sentenced in September 2008 to 18 months probation and was ordered to make restitution to the antiquities dealer to whom he sold the artifacts.
ICE's Office of Investigations works to identify and return items of cultural and historical value to their countries of origin under the Cultural Heritage Program. In 2007, ICE officials returned an antique vessel in the form of an alabaster duck to the Egyptian government. The vessel, which is over 4,500 years old, had been stolen from the Egyptian Antiquities Inspectorate in 1979.

Papercut just came out with a new collection, and it's free shipping until mid-December.
Covent Garden Collection
ooh yay yay! After sewing their Ooh La Leggings something like 6 times (and running a full marathon in one pair), I'm VERY excited to see some new patterns from them.
I'm finding the collection really confusing to browse (where do I see the line drawings?), but I love love love the Peter & the Wolf Pants!
I found it easier to browse in the "shopping" section. I just ordered the Peter and the Wolf pants pattern. Expensive, but my husband can give it to me for Xmas. At least it is free shipping until mid-December.
Edited to add: Line drawings are now up on the website. -- Edited on 12/10/12 2:16 PM --
My pattern arrived today! I love the Peter & the Wolf trousers even more now after seeing the tech drawing inside the pattern! Looooooove!
Bah, I tried to link to the image but failing on mobile devices right now, but I tweeted it earlier here: http://twitter.com/fehrtrade/status/277111339288244224/photo/1

TOPEKA, Kan. (WIBW) -- Republican legislative leaders are confident that the House and Senate can pass a balanced budget that reflects additional cuts to the Kansas tax rates.
Both chambers are preparing to debate their budget bills. The bills outline how they propose to spend some $14 billion, including $6 billion from the state general fund.
Legislators built the budgets to further reduce income tax rates, though the House version doesn't keep in place a 2010 increase in the state sales tax rate scheduled to expire on July 1.
The Senate keeps the sales tax rate at 6.3 percent, instead of allowing it to slip to 5.7 percent.
The Senate has passed its tax plan, while the house has yet to vote...

Benjamin Trail NP XL 1100 : GRT-III Trigger Upgrade Installation
People Who Liked This Video Also Liked
Did this video help you?
davcharest7: The most simple way and FREE, it's of removing the little tensioner spring
on the the trigger...huge difference...
sscooterManicZZ: Can you do this on the crosman nitro venom?
Smallmouthchaser: Hello I read some of the comments on here and just want to make sure I heard you right...So simply taking off the stock trigger and replacing it with the CDT trigger voids the warranty?? If you had a warranty issue in the future couldn't you just put the stock trigger back on the rifle?? I was going to order one of the CDT Triggers but I don't want to have to do any filing or worrying about the gun not roostering right or any problems because my 17 year old son is going to be the main operator of the gun....I thought that it was just a simple replacement trigger without any modifications to the gun at all...Can you install the Custom trigger without any modifications to the Rifle what so ever?? Thanks.
TheStupidMonkey007: The barrel shouldn't snap shut while roostering and loading. If it does, it means that you have to fix the bear trap lever which I will answer in your following comment.
gdoginthehood: On a chart of difficulty 1-10 What would u say it is to install
usarmy1221121: Does the barrel snap shut if you don't hold it while loading the pellet after installing this?
skydive14: all is well with bear trap and trigger is a dream come true. (ben elite has kick) I wonder how often I'll be re-sighting in
TheStupidMonkey007: No matter what you do to the factory trigger you won't be able to get it smooth or to function as nice as a CDT GRT-III trigger. I worked on my factory trigger before replacing it and I got it to where it was "tolerable", but still left me guessing as to when it would fire sometimes. With the GRT-III I always knew when it would fire. My recommendation is save yourself some frustration and just order a CDT GRT-III Trigger. :)
Miner Apple: Got the new trigger today and I watched your video again as a refresher. I had it installed in 5 minutes! Thanks again for your video.
TheStupidMonkey007: Thanks, I'm glad you liked the video. Sorry about the focus, I wish I had an HD camera for better clarity, but that will have to wait. Concerning the breaking of the action, I just found that I couldn't remove the e-clip on mine without doing so. You may be able to remove with out breaking the action, I just found it easier to remove that way. Either way, as long as you get the same result in the end your gun will be better with the new trigger.
blackandsmart: Very detailed video, made my job so much easier! During my installation a small cylindrical pin fell out, I don't know what it is. It has the same diameter as the narrow part of the pin that goes in the bear trap, and it is 1/4" long. Do you know this part?
Tristen Naquin: sorry i wasnt paying much attention to the beginning of the dis assembly i heard you say something about removing the screw behind the trigger and i thaught you were talking about the entire trigger guard. i understand what you mean tho thank you. but i did see another video where the guy had to remove his trigger guard. i just wanted to clarify by watching your video. sorry for wasting your time. il use this video to install mine when i get it
TheStupidMonkey007: It is a simple Phillips screw driver. Locate the screws on the rifle to see what type it has and use the appropriate type (usually Phillips).
TheStupidMonkey007: @skydive14 , When setting up your scope, make sure to put Loctite 242 on all fasteners on rings. Tighten then down snug, but not too tight. You don't want to strip out the screws. Then let it sit the alloted time the Loctite 242 package recommends. I had to use this on both my Gamo and Trail NP XL and since then I have not had any problems with scope slippage.
nowthisisfishing: where did you get the trigger?
Kuo Zhao: great, great,great..I feel uncomfortable with my NP's trigger, and I found this video..by the way, where I can buy the trigger you showed in the video?
TheStupidMonkey007: To fix the bear trap lever you have to remove it & there is a little tab on it (see my video on the GRT-III Trigger update (one of the last videos I did before I got real busy). I show in that video what the bear trap lever is & what you will need to file or sand down just a little to fix the issue. If you don't fix the issue it will create an unsafe condition with your rifle and will either result in you or someone else getting injure or your barrel getting bent. Check out that video for help.
TheStupidMonkey007: If I remember correctly is was $32 shipped to your door.
TheStupidMonkey007: I personally feel that the money was not wasted. The GRT-III trigger is a better trigger made out of solid aircraft type aluminum, it is lighter and the GRT-III trigger actually has adjustability where the original factory trigger does not. I'm glad you were able to modify it yourself to work to your satisfaction and that you are happy with your modification. Perhaps you would be so kind as to make a video of what you did to help others to be able to make their Benji Trail NPs shoot better. :)
TheStupidMonkey007: If it is the part I'm thinking of, it is a plastic bushing/roller that keeps the roostering are moving smoothly within the stock. If it is ruined, I would suggest calling the Crosman Service Center (you can find their number on the website) and as for Jan. Let her know what model/make air rifle you have and she'll be able to direct you in the right direction to order a new part. Since you disassembled it, the warranty is void so you'll have to pay for the parts.
fowlsin: i will, when my crosman venom get's here, i hope i get it this week or next week, but i will show you guy's how easy it is and how safe it is.
TheStupidMonkey007: Thanks! I'm glad you enjoyed the video and I hope all works well with your trigger installation when it arrives. Have fun!
Simolious1: Well I did it. The small plastic part you described at 3:40 in your video must've got out of position and went un-noticed. It was crushed beyond use when the gun was roostered. It's not on the parts list. Could you describe what it's purpose is and tell me how to get another? My rifle is the Nitro Venom Dusk but appears to be the same as yours.
skydive14: well, I installed the trigger. getting the main pin through while fighting the triggers tension was a rodeo but all went thru very quick. Due to it being a Christmas gift, I rewrap and boxed it til the 25th, shooting the 26th. my Ben Elite NP XL 1500 will be worth the wait.
A Qu: I just installed the trigger on my trail NP, gun won't stay roostered. can you post video where exactly to file down? Thanks.
TheStupidMonkey007: No problem. It's not a waste of my time to help out other fellow air gunners, it is my pleasure to help out. I just wanted to make sure that we were talking about the same part of the rifle, that was all. Have fun and shoot safe. :)
TheStupidMonkey007: I'm sure what you are talking about. In the video (the very beginning of the video) I never mention having to remove the trigger guard. There is a screw in the back end of the trigger guard that must be removed in order to take the action out of the stock (and I mention this), but actually removing the trigger guard is not necessary. Perhaps you are trying to describe a different part of the trigger assembly. Can you clarify it so I can help give you a proper answer? Thanks. :)
tykee19: oh ok thanks i really apriciate it and im sure others will to but i havent goten it yet i will be getting the btrlxl 1100 for christmas hopefully was thanking about it for my bday which is 4 days till now but i decided not to and thanks again
TheStupidMonkey007: You can go to google.com or any other search engine and type in grt-III or CharlieDaTuna and you will find a link to his website.
TheStupidMonkey007: @tykee19 , You are very welcome. I thought it would help other Trail NP XL owners to see the benefits of the trigger replacement. One thing the video does not show, because it was a couple of days later, is that I had to file down the tab on the Bear Trap Lever (small tab on the lever that passes over the pin that is in the Bear Trap). Make sure that the tab on the lever will clear past that pin or you will have problems with the gun not staying roostered and you could get injured. (See Comments)
TheStupidMonkey007: @tykee19 , I'm going to make another video showing this rifle shooting at 10 and 20 yards with this trigger. I'll also point out the additional modification that I had to do so others will know what to look for when changing out the trigger.
335iBimmer: I got this trigger today and installed it in 10 minutes, took it out to shoot and no!! I got a hair pin trigger. Is there any possible way to fix it?
AWD Spitfire: Is it possible to make the Benjamin trail xl 1100 a hair trigger? or is this only to make it a smoother trigger?
TheStupidMonkey007: @tykee19 , No problem. If you get one, do the trigger mod and you will really like the rifle. I went from liking this rifle to really, really liking to shoot this gun. The trigger upgrade/replacement really helps with accuracy.
RedE2Rok69: Great vid. Liked the detailed info. Wish you had better focus. The instructions don't call for you to break the action to remove any parts, so why did you? Saw another vid where the guy didn't do that and he completed the replacement. Was is really necessary?
andrewg367: I just installed the same trigger on the same gun. It is such a slight pull to fire the rifle that I am not sure if it is working properly. Seems to be no first stage at all and fires with the trigger moving less then a 16th of an inch. Perhaps I am just used to the super long pull of the old trigger, but I have only put maybe 40 pellets through it before installing this trigger.
skydive14: I'll check that when I get off duty at 7am (Wife would flip if I tested it in the garage while SHE was home)
TheStupidMonkey007: Thanks! It would be nice to see how someone has figured out how to make these glitchy factory triggers work like they should. :) I look forward to seeing the video.
TheStupidMonkey007: Tigers2012ACC, from what I understand a hair trigger can occur and not ever air rifle of the same model reacts the same to the GRT-III Trigger. On the Charlie Da Tuna website from what I can remember it said to put the old trigger back in immediately. You might try looking at the Charlie Da Tuna website or sending him a message about your issue. My particular Benji Trail NPXL did have the hair trigger issue. I wish I knew more.
TheStupidMonkey007: It took about a week and arrived in a bubble pack envelope.
Oxgangs1966: I bought the GRT III and its hardly made any difference :(
Max Moffitt: how do u fire each shot so fast when its a single shot gun cause i have one and i cant fire it that fast
TheStupidMonkey007: Thanks for the compliment. :) Concerning the part that seems to have fallen out... I'm not sure without seeing the part. However, you can go to Crosman.com and at the bottom of the main web page there is a link to Downloads. Click on that, then click on the appropriate brand you have. Next pick the model number of the particular rifle/gun you have. Download the exploded parts view and the parts list. That should help you to find what the part is and where it goes. I hope this helps out.
TheStupidMonkey007: I'm glad the video was helpful to you. Thanks for watching and commenting. I hope you have allot of fun with your NPXL. :)
TheStupidMonkey007: By installing this trigger, there is the chance that your particular Benjamin Trail NPXL can become a "Hair Trigger" or unsafe. They specify this directly on their website as a disclaimer. I would recommend contacting the manufacturer of the trigger, they will be able to answer questions better than a person like myself. I don't even own this particular air rifle anymore.
fowlsin: hey dude what much did you waste your money on that trigger, for me i just put a longer screw where the adjustment screw is,you can get the screw from any toy or something that use's small screws as long as you have the screw 50 to 75% longer than the screw that came with it and the safe and fire trigger also works but don't screw it in too much because your gun won't rooster at all, just change the screw nothing else
John Doe: How much does that trigger cost?
Tristen Naquin: thanks
tykee19: omg i am so glad someone put the video up of changing the trigger thanks man
TheStupidMonkey007: I'm glad it was helpful for you. Have fun and shoot safe. :)

What is the long term picture as it stands now for ICG. Meaning what do you see them accomplish in 2013 and 2014 ? I mean they have gone through about 5 years of structure and a drill program with the SP to what it was when it had no money pumped into the asset and it was just an idea.
One thing I learn long ago is, with TSX V listed companies, there usually is some concern when a plan of attack takes place and come 4-5 years latter , PP are being done at the same price that pre date back 5 years .
And from my eyes then , what has been the progress from year 1 to now if paper is still being issued at prices from the past. Now the last PP in a good market with gold at 1600 is what it is pre roll back 3.2 cents and I said De Jong must have looked high and low and thats what he got 3.2 cents a share and I dont blame him or management, but blame the data of what is being accumulated to encourage such a PP and SP
Marine your dedicated to this and that can be seen clear, but your missing the big picture on one thing, no matter what NR is released nothing affects the SP, the volume is not encouraging in a good safe market, PP are given away notwithstanding TSX going up and gold above 1600 ... I think in your case you have dedicated so much cash , your at the point of no return , meaning if what you said is true on your entries your bordering being an insider almost and you cant turn back and this asset is making you look bad on just about every wait and see news that comes about.
Did you everything that just maybe your wrong and its time to think about shorting to see if you can see a exit or a ROI or is this going to go down to the end...For now my way to make money will be in hopes a RB comes about so I can short and this way I dont have to make endless entries to lower my average to hold only paper...
Last and my guess is you will not answer this , but I will give it a shot. Rollback do you see it coming ?

Michael Hill closes one US store
Brisbane, Australia-- Michael Hill International Ltd. now has eight stores in the United States instead of nine, the Brisbane-based chain retailer reported in its fiscal-year results released Friday.
According to the company's results for the fiscal year ended June 30, the ninth store closed sometime between June 30, 2012 and June 30, 2013.
During the period, same-store sales in the U.S. market increased 6 percent year-over-year. Total sales (in local currency) reached $10.3 million, up 7 percent from $9.6 million in the prior fiscal year.
Earnings before interest and tax (EBIT) shrunk as a percentage of revenue, from 28 percent in 2012 to 23 percent in 2013.
Total sales for Michael Hill increased 7 percent year-over-year while net profit after taxes was up 10 percent.
All of Michael Hill's U.S. stores are in Illinois, with the company's U.S. headquarters in Chicago. The market represents just 2 percent of its total operations.
According to the presentation released Friday, Michael Hill does not have plans to open any stores in the U.S. through 2016, though the company stated that "experimentation and testing" of the market was among its priorities for the fiscal year that began July 1, 2013.
The company opened a net of 15 stores in fiscal year 2013: 10 in Australia and Canada but none in New Zealand or the U.S. Michael Hill said it plans to open 20 new stores in the coming fiscal year and re-launch its e-commerce website.
