The absolute best gear for hiking, golf, cycling.
Fit is great, fabric light and comfortable.
Men's shirt is nice for ladies, too
Okay, guys, maybe this isn't what you wanted to hear about this shirt, but the fact is, I'm a gal and I bought it and I love it. Ladies, here's the deal: Icebreaker has been making their women's shirts very stylish lately, with tight shoulders, short, capped sleeves, and tight fitting. That's fine and dandy for street wear, but if you want something serious for backpacking, you need a looser fit, longer short sleeves that will give you some decent sun protection, and shoulders that won't bunch underneath and will be comfortable under a pack. Years ago, IB made their womens' shirts with these features in mind, but no more. So I bought the men's size small, and it works great. The shirt has a deep front zipper for good ventilation, and the collar will lie flat if you open the zipper a little bit. There's a cool little pocket on the right seam, at the bottom, into which you could slip a key or bandana, and it doesn't interfere with a pack. The shirt has pointelle fabric (tiny holes) in areas of heat, which is very clever. I've used the shirt on two long backpacking trips, and it's wonderful--no smell, comfortable when wet/sweaty, but dries quickly. True, it's a bit manish in color and styling, but no one has called me "Sir" yet.
Can you tell me what weight this shirt is?...
Can you tell me what weight this shirt is? 200? 150? Thank you.

hi all,
i upgraded my dahon boardwalk crankset to a Shimano 105 54/39T chainring. it wasn't the easiest job as i have to resort to using my auto tools instead of the bike tools. the BB of my Dahon Boardwalk D7 is the cheap one that has unusual treading. i have to used my long nose plier coupled with adjustable wrench. while sticking the 2 ends of the plier to the notches of the bottom bracket, i have to crank it with an adjustable wrench. it took me more than an hour just to remove the BB bracket. once they're out it's pretty much an easy install of Hollowtech II BB and the 105 crankset (i attached a pic). now here's my problem. when on the 53T the gear shifting is ok but when i changed it to the 39T the chain slacks. it seems that the chain is too long. how can i fix this ?
thanks for the inputs,

The SPB16.3 release of Allegro Design Entry CIS (Capture) now allows you to browse power pins in your design. In Capture, most of the design's power pins are invisible, which makes it difficult to find power pins. The new "browse power pins" capability will help you find the pins faster and increase your productivity.
In Capture, power and ground supply pins are referred to generically as "power pins." Normally, power pins are invisible and global -- this means they are shorted by name or they are connected to like-named power pins, power objects, and power nets throughout the schematic. If you need to change the shorting behavior on the pins, you would need to make them visible and then work on the pin properties. Now, you can view the list of all the power pins in a schematic design and then edit the power names or define them as NC pins.

Additional Information
This is a Group Loan
In a group loan, each member of the group receives an individual loan but is part of a larger group of individuals. The group is there to provide support to the members and to provide a system of peer pressure, but groups may or may not be formally bound by a group guarantee. In cases where there is a group guarantee, members of the group are responsible for paying back the loans of their fellow group members in the case of delinquency or default.
Kiva's Field Partners typically feature one borrower from a group. The loan description, sector, and other attributes for a group loan profile are determined by the featured borrower's loan. The other members of the group are not required to use their loans for the same purpose.

Regardless of whether Kevin Love remains with the Timberwolves after Thursday's draft, NBA TV analyst Steve Smith says it's time for them to move on with the 13th pick.
"Need an insurance policy of a big (man)," Smith said in an interview with the Pioneer Press.
Smith looks at power forward Adreian Payne -- a fellow Michigan State alum -- as the safeguard to the Wolves' perilous future with Love, who has given no indication he wants return to Minnesota when he can opt of his contract next July.
Many teams reportedly are angling for Love, with some offering draft picks. The latest development Wednesday included Cleveland offering a deal that centered on the Cavaliers' No. 1 overall pick.
Love recently said that Cleveland has a "great, young foundation," but Yahoo! Sports has reported that Love would not sign long-term with the Cavaliers, effectively killing the proposition.
So if this saga stalls and the Wolves stay at No. 13, Payne could be the man.
Smith has known Payne since he stepped onto the East Lansing campus four years ago, so he has a thicker file on Payne than other draft prospects.
"A freakish athlete, works tremendously hard," said Smith, who played for the Spartans from 1987-91. "I like the balance in his offense, where not everything is a (three-pointer), not everything is a post-up. He spreads it out."
Although Payne, 23, is a few years older than most players in his class, Smith says the 6-foot-9 prospect can still improve.
"He played four years (at Michigan State) and wasn't very comfortable his first two years," Smith said. "And in his third year, it was the middle of the season where he had his confidence and he started to break out. We started to see a jump shot that we hadn't seen before."
Payne never shot three-pointers his first two years in college, but he averaged 1.2 attempts as a junior and 3.4 as a senior. His three-point shooting percentage increased from 38 percent to 42 percent over those seasons.
"He is really good at knocking down that three-point shot," Smith said. "With the new trends, new rules and new age of the NBA, you can't go wrong with a (6-9) guy that can shoot the basketball, rebound, block shots, and I guess, play the dirty-work role."
While Smith has Payne circled, ESPN's Jay Bilas says it's much more uncertain who will be available when the Wolves get on the clock near 7:30 p.m. Thursday.
"At 13, there are a lot of ifs in the draft as to who gets taken and all that stuff, so you don't really know," Bilas said in a conference call. "I'm kind of a best-available-player believer, so rather than go for a position or something like that, I think you go with the best available player."
The best available players could be Michigan's Nik Stauskas and Michigan State's Gary Harris.
"(The Wolves) need perimeter shooting," Smith said. "With the trend of the NBA, you need spacing, you need shooting -- as we saw with the championships with the Spurs. ... Both of those guys are shooting wings that can flat-out shoot the basketball."
Showing he's not biased, Smith singled out Stauskas.
"There are some guys that are catch-and-shoot guys, and there are some guys that can shoot it off the dribble. He is probably one of the elite players in this draft that can do both," Smith said. "I also like his size. Then I like his moxie."
Harris measured at 6-2 without shoes at the NBA draft combine, but Michigan State teammate Keith Appling said Harris makes up for that.
"I feel like his strength makes up for his size," Appling said. "He's a lot stronger than people give him credit for, or even what he looks like. His ability to shoot the ball and play defense on the other end is what I think will help him at the next level."
Another best available player might be Kentucky's James Young, but Smith sees him as another version of Shabazz Muhammad, whom the Wolves traded for in last year's draft.
"James Young is a slasher," Smith said. "He can obviously put the ball in the hole."
Wolves president of basketball operations and coach Flip Saunders said Stauskas and Creighton's Doug McDermott are the draft's best shooters, but both could be off the board when the Wolves are on the clock.
Saunders said most draft boards start to drift apart outside the top five, led by Duke's Jabari Parker and Kansas' Andrew Wiggins. That's not all bad, he added.
"I believe the draft, players taken 17, 18, 19, those players have the ability to be rotation players next year," Saunders said. "To play 15 to 18 minutes and to get that out of draft, you feel pretty good."

Ethanuel Williamson
- Filed Under
A 12-year-old Franklin boy wanted to try out for a middle school football team so much that he walked nine miles to get his chance.
The problem is that no one seemed to know where Ethanuel Williamson was, leading to a lengthy early morning police search Wednesday for the youth, who was found in good condition, according to South Brunswick Police Detective Sgt. James Ryan.
Ethanuel, who was last seen at about 1 a.m. at the Hotel Vincenza on Route 1 near Deans Lane in South Brunswick, where he has been living for the past two months, was found at about 9:45 a.m. at a relative's residence in Franklin, ...

Ogden firefighters rescue 2, douse apartment fire
Ogden firefighters were able to rescue two people and keep an early Wednesday morning fire limited to a single unit of a four-unit apartment complex.
Ogden Deputy Fire Chief Eric Bauman said the 3:33 a.m. blaze at 638 N. Evergreen Way was contained to the front porch and outside wall of the second-story unit where it began.
Firefighters arrived to find that two of the four occupants of the affected apartment were still inside the smoke-filled unit, but they were able to help them get out safely.
"All four occupants were medically evaluated by [paramedics] and did not require transport to local hospitals," Bauman said.
The Ogden City Fire Marshal's Office was investigating the cause of the blaze.
Initial damages were estimated at $10,000.
No injuries were reported.

WOW. I referred to reply on my post (long time ago but still valid nevertheless).
Sarcasm at its best from 'resort' manager. Last line was epic. No wonder this place has been voted the worst in Singapore.
I was shock of the bed = bug and bugs everywhere . The toilet, bed cover, rubbish and everything. This is the worst resort i ever stay. Staff was rude and service was really bad.
We visited this place for a 21st birthday party.
The service staff were very rude and they have strict guidelines such as no outside caterer furniture and they would make a scene in front of the guests instead of being nice and polite when they demanded that the caterer furniture be paid for per chair.
You cannot move furniture outside...
I booked this chalet for a gathering. Upon checking in and inspecting the place, I had requested staff to help clean up huge puddles of water in the duplex.

Don't stay at this hotel unless you want to throw your money down the drain ,or experience the worst service in singapore just so you have a good story to tell your friends!

Even though the resort has been renovated and the furnitures are new, the room is very smelly. Advise anyone planning to stay there to bring air-freshner.

Citation: (2004) Hormones Act in Concert to Direct Plant Growth. PLoS Biol 2(9): e299. doi:10.1371/journal.pbio.0020299

Anyone who thinks plants are passive inhabitants of their environment has never seen time-lapse footage of a seedling bursting from its protective shell or a climbing vine coiling around a tree. Such films dramatize a fundamental fact of plant life: survival depends on responding to environmental cues. Shoots grow toward light and against gravity. Stems and roots curl around obstacles that block their paths.
In plants, environmental cues trigger hormonal changes that in turn regulate cells' shapes and proliferation. In this way, subtle changes in the environment affect plant growth. Auxin, the first known plant hormone, spurs growth and shapes growth patterns in nearly every plant tissue throughout a plant's lifecycle. Brassinosteroids—a class of hormones chemically similar to animal steroids like testosterone—are linked to many of the same processes as auxin.
Early physiological and molecular experiments gave conflicting evidence about whether auxin and brassinosteroids had similar effects. For many years, biologists believed that these hormones acted through independent signal transduction pathways—chains of molecules that relay stimuli and elicit cellular responses, such as gene expression. But in the last few years, microarray studies, which can measure the transcription of thousands of genes simultaneously, showed that auxin and brassinosteroids do regulate expression of several genes in common.
In this issue of PLoS Biology, Jennifer Nemhauser et al. assay the entire genome of Arabidopsis thaliana, a favorite for plant genetics studies, for effects of auxin and brassinosteroids. The group's microarray analyses show that these hormones affect transcription of about 80 genes in common—including many known players in the hormones' signal transduction pathways. To see how this regulation could occur, the research team looked at the genes turned on by both hormones to find common promoter sequences—regions of the genome that do not code for protein but instead help regulate gene transcription. They used a new computational approach to tease out promoter regions that auxin and brassinosteroid pathways both act upon, showing how these hormones have overlapping effects on gene transcription.
The group also compared the effects of auxin and brassinosteroids on seedlings' stem growth and gene expression in a variety of mutant Arabidopsis lines. They showed that auxin and brassinosteroids greatly enhance each other's effects on stem growth, demonstrating that the interaction of these hormones is important for normal plant development. Mutants with a disabled auxin pathway don't respond normally to brassinosteroids, and vice versa. Also, mutants with abnormally high levels of auxin have a reduced number of genes that respond to brassinosteroids. Thus, these hormones act through overlapping, interdependent pathways—but they don't regulate each other directly. Instead, the researchers suggest, the pathways likely converge on the promoters of a few key genes.
It's still an open question why plants use these hormones with such redundant effects. Nemhauser speculates that—as is known to be the case in animals—by having dual, interdependent pathways, plants can finely tune how these ubiquitous hormones act in different cells and tissues to shape patterns of growth. By showing clearly that auxin and brassinosteroids act together and how they affect many of the same genes, Nemhauser and colleagues have set the stage for more detailed studies of how these hormones act in specific parts of plants to shape growth.

Notre Dame offensive lineman Christian Lombard is out for the rest of the season after undergoing back surgery, coach Brian Kelly told members of the media Thursday.
In Lombard's place, freshman Steve Elmer will start at right guard. The former four-star recruit came to Notre Dame as a tackle, but coaches have raved about his versatility to play any position along the offensive line except center.
Nose guard Louis Nix will not travel to Colorado Springs for Saturday's game against Air Force, as he's dealt with knee and shoulder injuries this week. Losing him could be a blow for Notre Dame, but holding him out against a team that would've consistently cut blocked him may be better in the long run.
[MORE: Notre Dame-Air Force all in the family for Rochell]
"Option football is not his cup of tea," Kelly said Tuesday.
Safety Elijah Shumate (hamstring) will travel to Air Force but won't start, with Kelly saying he could help the Irish in an emergency situation.
Lastly, quarterback Tommy Rees -- as expected -- is set to play Saturday after taking all of the first-team reps in practice Thursday.

We spoke to a number of people who had been on alternate tours of the city, some offered by Royal Caribbean and some that people had organized themselves. We were lucky to have chosen this tour as it was very good and we thoroughly enjoyed what we saw and where we we taken. I would recommend it to anyone.
My only recommendation would be to start the torus from the place where the ship docked, and not in the center of the city.

Were expecting a good experience from a DeVere Hotel, what a disappointment.
The welcome at reception was very lack lustre, at best doing her job. Rooms just about ok, clean but could have been better, try dusting skirting boards and cleaning windows. Food, well I can only compare it to motor way service stations, a very basic point - food cool, served on cold plates, no excuse for that. Location is fantastic, beautiful grounds and surroundings - so hotel a big disappointment, and it's not cheap.

MISSION VIEJO – Residents assailed a plan presented this week by the owners of Kaleidoscope shopping center to cover the retail site's exterior with eight giant electronic billboards, calling the proposal an eyesore with the potential to be dangerous to freeway drivers.
The billboards are part of a larger signage plan proposed as the next phase in rebranding Kaleidoscope as a vibrant destination along the lines of L.A. Live, The Grove in Los Angeles and Hollywood & Highland Center. The proposal includes amending city code to create a special district allowing the billboards.
After a presentation on the sign program, residents, business owners and business advocates came before the City Council to voice support or opposition. Of the 22 speakers, 15 opposed the idea. Of the 40 emails and letters the city received before Monday's meeting, 25 were in opposition, including one each from Laguna Hills and Laguna Niguel.
"Attractive signage has always been a part of the city's plans," said Millie Summerlin, a Mission Viejo resident for more than 35 years. "The proposed signs are garish. They're extensive and they could be dangerous. They're just not in keeping with the whole aesthetic and such of Mission Viejo."
Summerlin said flashy signs don't necessarily make a center more successful, noting the old Mission Viejo mall – now the Shops at Mission Viejo – required a lot of investment and new tenants to make it a vibrant center.
Business owners and advocates, including Buffalo Wild Wings franchisee Matt Dragas, were the primary speakers in favor of the proposal, which received support letters from a dozen Kaleidoscope businesses, a nearby auto dealership and the Orange County Business Council.
"Basically I think this boils down to not in my backyard," Dragas said, challenging the council to focus on the economic benefits of the proposal.
"Do we want to increase our business, do we want to increase our jobs, do we want to have a thriving economy?" Dragas said. "Or do we want to make this, as (a previous speaker) said, a place to come home to, a bedroom community where you can't do anything, you're just going to come home every night, nothing to do?"
Council members praised Kaleidoscope representative Colby Durnin for the efforts made since the center was bought in 2010 by Crown Valley Holdings to bring the retail site out of its previous funk. Operational, parking and aesthetic issues were addressed, LA Fitness was signed as an anchor tenant and several existing tenants made improvements or were moved into new spots.
Councilman Dave Leckness applauded the thinking and energy behind the plan, but declared it bigger than just a Kaleidoscope project. He suggested Durnin spearhead development of a broader plan with involvement of stakeholders from Mission Viejo and surrounding cities.
Mayor Pro Tem Rhonda Reardon zeroed in on the bright lights of electronic billboards. Reardon emphasized the council's desire to help the Kaleidoscope center be successful, but perhaps through different means.
"I think that there is probably a need for some improvement or some new things to look at for Mission Viejo sign code," she told Durnin. "I think the electronic stuff is a bridge too far. The size, all of that is just, it becomes overbearing."
Councilwoman Trish Kelley called the existing Kaleidoscope facade along Crown Valley Parkway "ugly" and recommended the council be open-minded – but in control of – options for a sign program.
"We're receiving criticism based on what might happen there," Kelley said. "But I think we need to take control of what might happen there and offer some viable solutions that are tasteful, that fit that Mission Viejo image and yet help our businesses."
Everyone agreed more public input would be essential before any plan is approved.
Dozens of studies have been conducted and reports written nationally and worldwide on the effect of electronic billboards on drivers. Some conclude the electronic billboards are no more distracting than traditional ones. Others say there is an impact on drivers, but the extent depends on multiple factors including time of day, brightness of the billboards at night, amount of information presented and how fast messages change.
The council voted 3-2 to reject the request by Durnin to draft an ordinance amending the city's sign code and instead asked staff to research options and standards for a sign program that may or may not include a sign district.
The council also asked for details on the electronic billboard/driver-safety issue. Council members Reardon and Cathy Schlicht voted no, with Reardon adamantly opposed to any consideration of electronic billboards.
Such consideration, Reardon said, is contrary to public input the council has received so far and inconsistent with what she said she was hearing from her council colleagues.
"I think what I heard ... is that we do not want electronic billboards for one reason and one reason only," she said. "We open it up and it is a floodgate that is open and we don't ever get it back."

The Singapore Food Festival (SFF) is an annual celebration of Singapore's best local food and culinary talents with events offering a variety of interesting and immersive experiences.
SFF 2015 - A Fresh Taste of Tradition
If there is one thing Singaporeans are truly passionate about, it is food, especially the delectable range of local delights. The Singapore Food Festival is an annual celebration of our local food culture. In its 21st year, this highly anticipated annual event showcases the richness and diversity of Singapore's culinary landscape.
In 2015, the festival, themed 'A Fresh Taste of Tradition', showcased both traditional favourites and modern spins on Singaporean classics. Celebrity local chef Justin Quek curated the signature event, STREAT, comprising 16 different vendors serving popular local and mod-sin dishes from some of the best hawkers and chefs in Singapore.
Fancy a modern take on familiar flavours? Chinatown Food Street's Mod-Local Fest had chefs combining the best of local and foreign flavours, while pop-up theatrical dinner STORIES wove storytelling into a 5-course Singapore menu.
Those with a yen for traditional favourites had a blast at the revival of Ellenborough Market, which was famed for Teochew delights. To add to the authenticity of the event, there were also Teochew Opera performances and Teochew cooking demonstrations. Fifteen of the 30 stalls showcased traditional Teochew delights, with others offering new creations by young hawkers, such as Truffle Wanton Mee.
Guests also noshed on Indian-inspired dishes at Suvai 2015. The event also broke two Guinness World Records for the "Largest Amount of Curry Cooked at a Single Time" and "Largest Cooking Vessel" with a record-breaking 11-metre curry pot. There were also the sold-out Living Culinary Treasures cooking workshops conducted by Violet Oon - the doyenne of local Peranakan cuisine - and kueh making demonstrations on Kueh Appreciation Day.
With a strong focus on local delicacies and the cultural heritage of Singaporean cuisine, SFF is the festival for Singaporeans to indulge, and for visitors to sample the wide variety of authentic local delights. Dig in!
Can't get enough of Singapore Food Fest? The next instalment of SFF will return in July 2016. Watch this space for more information.

One of the most recent uses falls into the more altruistic efforts, with researchers announcing they've successfully printed eye cells, something that could eventually lead to a cure for blindness. The work was done by researchers at The University of Cambridge, and was published in the journal Biofabrication.

Chappuis clinches Crystal Globe
Sat, 10 Mar 16:24:00 2012
American Bryan Fletcher took his maiden FIS Nordic Combined World Cup win and podium finish at the final event of the season in Oslo as Jason Lamy Chappuis did enough to claim the Crystal Globe.
Related links
Fletcher improved from third after the ski jump to first following the cross-country ski, topping the podium in a time of 28:48.7minutes with eighth place sufficient for Lamy Chappuis.
The Frenchman entered the final event with a 72-point lead over Akito Watabe with there the slightest chance that he might toppled him given his inconsistent form of late.
After ranking 16th to Watabe's ninth after the ski jump there was still hope he could surrender the Crystal Globe but Lamy Chappuis produced the second-best cross-country ski to make certain of it.
Watabe was the eighth fastest to rank seventh, one place ahead of Lamy Chappuis but remaining one place behind him in the overall rankings with 1238 points to the Frenchman's total of 1306.
Norwegian Mikko Kokslien ended third overall with 1061 points after finishing second for the second successive time in Oslo while Taihei Kato took bronze for his first-ever World Cup podium finish.

Other Scandinavian periods coming soon.........................................
"Gungstol" / Swedish
Rocking Chair
1830 Gungstol/Swedish Rocking Chair Later
"Köksoffa" / Swedish
Kitchen Sofa
How to tell when a chair /
Gustavianskt chair was made.
Sweden has a history of folk painting dating back over 100 years. In this section I will discuss antique Swedish folk & tole painting. Here are some facts.
Sweden has a long history of stiching, cross stiching, embroidery, lace working, fine Linen, etc. Here are some beautiful examples of antique linen and embroidery.
Made by a child in school in 1907
Cross stiching and lace edging on linen
Sweden has a long history of porcelain making to and below are some examples of it.
Part of a spice rack set
3 crowns Swedens national symbol!
Tips & Ideas:
Cleaning old white marble: Use bleach and water
to clean marble.
Cleaning Linen & Lace: use stain removers or try to get the stains out with soap or bleach, try lemon juice hand wash!
Reupholster furniture with antique embroidered linen: If furniture fits the style of the embroidery use it!
To make furniture look old fashioned: Use antique handles/knobs/painting effects like wax under an area before
you paint to get the distressed look. Use ageing solutionsor wood decorations that can be found at hardware stores.
"Cleaning sick glass": Use concentrated bleach or white vinegar, let set for a day or two
Definition of "Allmoge" - Swedish and Scandinavian Folk Painted furniture mostly produced in Sweden and Norway but can also be found in other Nordic countries like Denmark and maybe some in Iceland & Finland. This furniture was primarily painted by farmers and peasants during the Baroque & Rococo periods.
Definition of "Empire: Karl Johan:" - A period that was very much influenced by the french Napoleanic empire. "Jean Baptist Bernadotte" came to Sweden from France to become the next King of Sweden then changed his name to "Karl Johan"
Definition of "Gustavianskt" - Gustav III inspired antique furniture. He is the Swedish King that brought "true" culture to Sweden and was heavily influenced by the classical periods, the french style, and rococo.
At auctions if you see a tag that says "Gustavianskt" it means the piece of furniture is an original Gustavianskt but if you see a tag with "Gustavianskt Style" it means its a later copy of the original Gustavianskt style.
Types of wood in Sweden - (Skogsstyrelsen)
A lot of foreign trees can grow in Sweden but of
economical interest are
My favorite kinds of Swedish antiques: Kitchen sofas (köksoffan), Swedish rocking chairs (Gungstol), Swedish Grandfather clock (farfars klocken or Mora klockan)
Rococo 1740-80 foot made of wood or iron, colored and sometimes has flowers.
Gustaviansk Stil 1770-1800 either has white glazed tile or decorated with flowers
Late Empire Senempire 1840-70 white and clear glazes on the tiles.
New Renaisance 1870-90 usually nice white tiles
Jugend 1890-1910
National Romantic 1890-1920
1900 - Tal the crown and decor can vary
1900-40 inspired by the 17c. often white

How to create the look of the Swedish countryside style:Important fabrics are the checkered blue & white, gold & white, red & white, pink & white mixes along with the same colored mixtures but with stripes like a red and white striped or blue and white striped fabric. With these fabric color mixes you can create the Swedish country look quickly by covering chairs, making tablecloths, napkins, curtains, bed sheets, etc with the fabric. Striped fabric should have thick stripes!
How to create the Swedish country kitchen: Collect wooden spoons, scoops, rolling pins, copper pans and cake forms, copper coffee kettles. copper and tin spoons and hang them from the ceiling on a metal frame or place them on metal hooks in your kitchen. You can also hang porcelain on plate hangers or get a traditional wooden plate rack to display your porcelain.
To get the Gustavianskt look: Paint interior walls pale grey, pale blue, or pale yellow, if you can't find authentic Swedish or Scandinavian antique furniture use doweled country chairs and tables and leave them with a "light" wooden finish, white wash or just paint the furniture white because during the Gustavianskt period much of the furniture was painted greyish white.
Window treatments: Use white lace or light white fabric and swag it across windows.
