I found it interesting that the season finale (Introduction to Finality) takes place after summer break.
Are you sure? Jeff was going on and on about his biology final through the whole episode. Why would he be taking a final after the summer break? Or did they actually say it was after the summer, and I just missed it?
I did miss like the first minute of the ep, so that's possible.
Yea. Jeff has a line where he talks about having to have spent his entire summer making up this biology course which was why he just wanted to study for the final and not deal with anything else. You'd have thought the Dean after being freed from imprisonment by the gang could have floated them all a passing grade in Biology in the course that got canceled.
I loved the 8bit episode. So basically this season we had an episode almost entirely in claymation and another in 8bit style. Why I love this show.

While Super Bowl XLV was actually an exciting game, there were plenty of entertaining moments along the way for all of the non-sports fans watching. Some highlights included Bill O'Reilly asking Obama why people hate him so much in his pre-game interview, Christina Aguilera flubbing the lyrics to the national anthem, the Black Eyed Peas' Fergie and Slash making us all yearn for Axl Rose, and the post-game Glee "event" featuring a cameo by Katie Couric. Then, of course there were the commercials. Below are my picks for the top 10 funniest ads of the 2011 Super Bowl.
More comedy videos at: GotchaMediaBlog.com
The most talked about ad long before the game even started was this cute spot from Volkswagen featuring a pint-sized Darth Vader who gains the power to turn on a car using The Force.
Not so much funny as disturbingly offensive, Groupon made its Super Bowl debut with a series of ads (which also include Cuba Gooding Jr. going on a whale watch and Elizabeth Hurley getting a Brazilian wax) that compare global disasters to saving money on luxury good and services.
The best kept secret of this year's Super Bowl ads was Joan Rivers as the hot new spokesperson for Go Daddy's .co product.
Character actor Peter Stormare (of Fargo and Big Lebowski fame) has a star-turn in Budweiser's old west meets Almost Famous ad.
Richard Lewis stars in this year's Snickers commercial, which means 2011 just found its Betty White. Next stop, Saturday Night Live. With very special guest Roseanne Barr.
Ozzy Osbourne and Justin Bieber finally occupy the same space in this ad for Best Buy. Naturally, the spot ends with a bearded Bieber remarking that Justin Bieber looks like a girl.
Bridgestone recreates the feeling that pretty much anyone who works in an office has felt at least once.
There's something inherently funny about a car reading you a Facebook update from a first date who you're obviously not friends with yet or she wouldn't write "Best first date ever."
When in doubt, use monkeys in your Super Bowl ad. Works every time.
In the most nostalgic ad of the night, everyone's favorite sitcom characters demonstrate their love for football.

TV's are getting bigger and better every year, while also getting thinner and lighter. That's good, but even as resolution increases by leaps and bounds, there have been some trade-offs in performance. This year, though, a new tech with a name right out of science fiction — the quantum dot — is the buzzword promising to be the solution to that problem. [More]
Quantum Dots Are The Hot New Thing At CES. So What Are They, And Why Should You Care?
3D Printers: Should They Be In Every Consumer's Home?
It would be an understatement to say that 3D printing is a big draw at the 2015 CES. The industry is well represented with small startups and well-known companies shilling the latest and greatest technology for creatively minded consumers. But aside from jewelry makers, hobbyists and educational institutions, we're left wondering why would the average consumer want a 3D printer and what would they actually use it for? [More]
Is LG's Music Flow The Sonos-Killer It Could Be?
Over the past few years, Sonos has come to dominate the business of wireless, web-connected speakers, but the devices come at a pretty steep price with the least expensive Sonos retailing for $199, and the cheapest available full surround sound option running around $1800. But here at International CES, LG is showing off what it believes is a comparable set of speakers that the company claims will cost "significantly less." [More]
Samsung CES 2015 Keynote: The Internet Of Things Is Here And There's Pretty Much Nothing That Can Stop It
Here are the things we learned from Samsung's CES 2015 Keynote address Monday evening: CEO and president BK Yoon has a lot of executive friends, the Internet of Things is already here, soon our entire lives will be "connected" and Back To The Future II references are getting old. [More]
Volkswagen Unveils Smartphone-On-Wheels Concept, Integration of Apple And Android App Systems
Volkswagen's first ever appearance at CES press day culminated in the unveiling of the Golf R Touch, a highly intuitive, infotainment vehicle that sounds more like a smartphone-on-wheels than an actual car. [More]
Toyota To Offer Royalty-Free Use Of Fuel Cell Patents To Jump-Start Production Of "Hydrogen Society"
Toyota didn't exactly announce any new products at its CES press conference on Monday, but the company did give a gift to its competitors: royalty-free use of its hydrogen fuel cell patents. While some companies might feel the need to fiercely guard such game-changing technology, officials at Toyota say sharing the information could mark a turning point in automotive history. [More]

Monster Announces Waterproof, Floatable Speaker; Thinnest In-Ear Bluetooth Headphones
The Monster press conference at CES was filled with all of the things we've become accustomed to from the headphone and audio company, including celebrity appearances and new product unveils.

Netflix Announces "Recommended TV" Evaluation Program
Since its inception, Netflix has been trying to personalize content recommendations for users, but it's remained relatively neutral about which devices you should actually watch this content on. But today the company announced the launch of a "Recommended TV" program that will single out certain brands and models of smart TVs that Netflix believes offer the best options for viewers. [More]
LG Claims Its Newest Curvy Smartphone Is Tougher Than The First One
Last year, LG (or as I still call it, Lucky Goldstar) revealed its curved G Flex smartphone, which got some press but didn't help the company overtake Apple or Samsung in the market and didn't lead to a slew of imitators. But LG isn't giving in, launching the G Flex 2, which it claims is both curvier and tougher than its predecessor. [More]
LG Figures Out What To Do With Washing Machine Pedestals — Put A Small Washer In Them
For years, washing machine makers have been upselling consumers on pricey but pretty much useless pedestals to put under their front-loading machines. At best, these products have been expensive metal drawers that save your back by forcing you to not bend over as far. But this morning at International CES, LG introduced a novel idea — stick a smaller washing machine in the pedestal. [More]
Meet The Anti-Gas Baby Bottle, The Smart Flower Pot & The $40 Web-Connected 9 Volt Battery
Even though International CES — the mammoth electronics show that takes over Las Vegas every January — doesn't technically begin until Tuesday, a horde of appetizer-hungry press descended on the CES Unveiled pre-show on Sunday night for free food and beer, and to look at some new products. [More]
LG, Samsung Want Curved, Ultra-Wide Monitors To Be The It Thing For 2015
Shoppers who got a shiny new ultra-HD 4K TV this year may feel like they're on top of the tech trends, but that's so 2014. There is, of course, something new on the horizon. 2015 looks primed to be the year of curves: not just for your home-theater TV, but for your PC. [More]
If You Have $25,364 Lying Around, This Is What You Should Do With It
While navigating the madness of CES this week, Consumerist boss Meg encountered one particularly swanky PC gaming setup sponsored by (who else?) nVidia. [More]
Will I Be Able To Stream PlayStation Now Or 4K Video, And Will It Shatter My Data Cap?
Streaming media: ever since YouTube became the world's favorite source of cat videos, it's been the wave of the future. This year's CES proved no exception — between the idea of playing cloud-based console games on PlayStation Now and watching ultra-high-definition 4K TV on Netflix, streaming and cloud-based media are clearly still where all the tech companies want us to be. [More]
Here's A Fun Game: Spot The Counterfeit Canon Power Accessories!
Let's say that you've found a great deal on a brand-name accessory for your camera on eBay, on the Amazon marketplace, or even at an offline store. The deal seems too great. Suspiciously great. What's the catch? Canon wants consumers to know that you should watch out for electronics that claim to be genuine Canon accessories. [More]
3D TV Is Dead. Will Glasses-Free 3D Resurrect It?
Three years ago at CES 2011, glasses-free 3D prototypes were everywhere (though they were incredibly underwheliming). It was supposed to be the holy grail that would finally make it worthwhile to have a 3D TV at home. Since then, others have declared that 3D TV is dead. Some manufacturers blame the glasses for 3D's demise and are still hoping that glasses-free can breathe new life into the format. [More]

Leicaflex' prism becomes yellow due to "desilvering" and the only help is to have the prism replaced. I don't know if it's the same process that happens to old mirrors. Either way, no sunbathing will help.
edit: It's not (only) plastic lenses. 35/1.4 Nikkor (of NC Auto kind) often has a yellow tint, and its glass is real glass. Of very good radioactive quality.
There are several firms which will resilver prisms, first surface mirrors, etc. I believe Ian G knows of at least one. Since the "silver" is actually aluminium, it's doable at home with a vacuum pump, bell jar, car battery, and a bit of aluminium wire.

Series: Holmes On Homes
Holmes on Homes is a Canadian home renovation show following the adventures of Mike Holmes as he rescues homeowners from poor renovations done by third party contractors. A typical episode will feature Mike Holmes and his coveralls visiting a hapless homeowner, shaking his head at the poor job done by the previous contractor, and then ripping the whole thing out and rebuilding it. This will be followed by hugs and tears and a philosophical speech into the camera about how important it is to do the job right the first time.Succeeded by Holmes Inspection, which in turn has been succeeded by Holmes Makes It Right.
This show provides examples of:
- The Alleged Expert: The whole point of the show is Mike fixing what these guys did.
- The Can Kicked Him: This was one of the possible outcomes prevented by Mike when he inspected a house with a badly installed septic system. Methane gas was building up in one of the basement pipes and could have exploded, killing people. Mike safely vented the gas and fixed the plumbing to avoid this in the future.
- Captain Obvious: Some of his comments on the badly done work and the contractors that ran off are in this territory.
- Catch Phrase: "Make it right!"
- "If you're gonna do it, do it right the first time."
- "Unacceptable."
- Channel Hop: In America was originally on Discovery Home before HGTV picked it up when DH converted to Planet Green. Planet Green failed out of the gate and became Destination America on Memorial Day 2012.
- Older episodes are shown on DIY Network in the U.S.
- Crooked Contractor: Not always, but there are a few of these evident. Holmes makes the point that most screwups are from otherwise good contractors who tried something that was outside of their field of expertise, but you do get some who run the gamut from "bad at their job and unwilling to take responsibility" to "lying sack of shit".
- Curse Cut Short: Mike Holmes, astounded by the bad job a house builder had done, starts making a comment, and then cuts to Damon while he was in the middle of a sentence.Mike: Holy shi- (cut)Damon: ...ims missing from around the door like the shims missing from the window.
- Deadpan Snarker: Mike tends to snark when he finds something really dangerous.
- Early Installment Weirdness: If you're a fan of Damon Bennett but haven't seen any of the first four seasons, you'll be surprised to see that he's not even a part of the team until midway though season four. Shawn Morren, who left after season five, was the original construction supervisor. Bennett is introduced to the series — by Morren — near the end of season four episode "Window Well to Hell."
- Genre Savvy:
- By later seasons, (and in the spinoffs), whenever Mike, Damon, or the crew finds out there's something with the house that involves a finished basement and/or a garage, they expect to be gutting it. In fact, they're pleasantly surprised when they don't have to tear everything down.
- Also shown by homeowners in later seasons. In some episodes the homeowner has been the one stopping the prior (bad) renovation work or spotting the problems because more people know what to look for in terms of warning signs thanks to the show.

- Limited Wardrobe: The trademarked coveralls.
- Nice Guy: Mike. A Reader's Digest survey even named him the second most trusted man in Canada (behind David Suzuki).
- Oh Crap!: Damn near every show. There's the problem they've been asked to fix. And then there's the problems that come up as a result of the problem they were asked to fix. Or entirely different problems that need fixed because there's no point in fixing Problem A if Problem B isn't fixed as well.
- Sarcasm Failure: On occasion Mike, one of his crew, or one of his regular trusted subcontractors, come across something a previous contractor or builder did that is simply so absurd, ridiculous, dangerous, or just plain bad that they're rendered speechless.
- Screw the Money, I Have Rules!: Mike's devotion to making it right has led to him extending jobs by weeks or even months, even though it means he has to pay for it out of his own pocket. Mike has said that helping people feels better than getting paid.
- Serial Escalation: It's very fun to watch some homes get torn up to hell just for the homeowners, but the amount of work performed can get absolutely crazy. A 50+ year-old home in Holmes Inspection needed to be remade because everything was either wrong with the house or not up to modern standards.Holmes: (asking on basement) So, what are your thoughts on this?Inspector: Creative.

The Right-Hander That Time Forgot
ST. PETERSBURG, Fla.—Miguel Batista did not set out to be used like a piece of duct tape, patching up the cracks of a pitching staff as they emerge. No one does.
But in 1998, when Batista was with the Montreal Expos, that is how his manager, Felipe Alou, used him. "He put me in a spot where I'd start today, relieve tomorrow, set up for a week and then start in another two weeks," he said.
Batista did not know it then, but he was being groomed for a role that would extend his career longer than nearly every pitcher his age. A quarter-century after the Expos signed him out of the Dominican Republic and 20 years since his major-league debut, Batista remains the quintessential swingman.
The 41-year-old right-hander made the Mets' Opening Day roster as the long man in the bullpen. When Mike Pelfrey suffered a season-ending elbow injury, he moved to the starting rotation. Now, with the Mets' bullpen in disarray, manager Terry Collins said he wants to try Batista as a late-inning bridge to closer Frank Francisco.
"He's pitched enough years that I don't think he's going to be bothered by any particular situation we put him in," Collins said. "He's started. He's relieved. He's got a feel for both."
Most starters view a move to the bullpen as a demotion. And few relievers can be easily converted to starters. But in an era of bullpen specialization, Batista has made a career of constantly alternating roles.
Over the past two decades, many pitchers have been better. But few have been both as flexible and as durable.
Entering Wednesday, Batista had made 247 career starts and 393 relief appearances. Only four other pitchers in baseball history have made both as many starts and relief appearances, according to Stats LLC: Dennis Eckersley, Rick Honeycutt, Charlie Hough and Greg Swindell.
Batista's reward for being malleable is simple: He's still here. With Jamie Moyer in the minors and Mariano Rivera out for the season, Batista is the second-oldest pitcher on an active major-league roster. He trails only Toronto Blue Jays reliever Darren Oliver, who was born 136 days earlier.
The youngest player on the Mets, infielder Jordany Valdespin, was two months old when Batista signed with the Expos. But Batista said the young players around him make him feel younger, not older.
"I don't feel 41," he said. "When I go on the mound, I don't think about how old I am. I don't pitch with my birth certificate. I pitch with my arm."
Batista entered Wednesday with a 3.45 ERA in 17 appearances this season, including four starts, and had not allowed a run in his last 16 innings, dating to May 8. While many pitchers are forced to become craftier as they age, relying more on deception than power, Batista's arm remains strong.
His average fastball velocity this season has exceeded 91 mph, higher than all but two pitchers on the Mets' active roster.
"It's amazing, it really is," pitching coach Dan Warthen said. "This guy is still throwing 93, 94 at times."
That Batista is being considered as a possible setup man says more about the state of the Mets' wobbly bullpen than it does about him. His 1.15 strikeouts-to-walks ratio entering Wednesday was among the worst in the National League. The role would likely be only temporary.
But that's life for Batista, who has pitched for 10 different teams. Very little is permanent. The only constant is that he is still wearing a major-league uniform.
"I don't know how I do it," he said. "I just know I'm capable of doing it."

Followup: West Seattle Senior Center hires ousted director as consultant, 'evaluates relationship' with Senior ServicesAugust 25, 2014 at 11:15 am | In West Seattle news, West Seattle people | 8 Comments
Karen Sisson is back at the Senior Center of West Seattle – as a consultant.
As first reported here July 14, after 25 years as center director, Sisson was fired by Senior Services, the citywide nonprofit that provides staffing to centers including West Seattle, after sending an e-mail that expressed concern over possible operational changes SS was reported to be considering. SS would not comment on the reason for Sisson's ouster, but multiple sources attributed it to the e-mail.
Now, the Senior Center's board – which operates independently of Senior Services and its board – has hired Sisson as a consultant, and is demanding that SS reinstate her as center director. From board president David Robertson:
The Senior Center of West Seattle unanimously adopted a resolution endorsing Karen Sisson as Center Director and expressing its lack of confidence in Paula Houston, the Agency Director of Senior Services. A copy of the resolution is attached:
The Senior Center of West Seattle has hired Karen Sisson as a consultant to assist the Board in dealing with financial matters of the Senior Center of West Seattle as the Senior Center evaluates its relationship with Senior Services.
Unlike most of the Seattle senior centers that are staffed through Senior Services, the West Seattle center owns its own building. In addition to the board resolution, Sisson's firing also has sparked a community outcry, including a petition drive, and an earlier board "vote of confidence" in her work. Sisson herself hasn't commented directly on her firing but told WSB she appreciates the messages of support.
8 Comments
As a West Seattle Senior Center volunteer AND as a West Seattle senior citizen, I ALSO demand that Karen be immediately reinstated to the job for which she has constantly demonstrated not only wholehearted dedication but outstanding ability.
We are so much poorer without her at the helm.
I hope so much that the Senior Center of West Seattle is able to break away from Senior Services. Why would anyone want to be part of an organization with a person such as Paula Houston at the head? Who fires a remarkable employee – one who has served our community for a quarter century – without board discuss, due process, consultation ?? And who has repeatedly ignored the cries, pleas, and demands of many, many West Seattle citizens that Karen be brought back.
That she is back at the Center is good. But we need her back at the helm.. and the sooner the better!!

I am so glad to hear the board has taken a very strong stand in support of Karen. I hope her reinstatement happens soon.
Comment by dhg — 2:48 pm August 25, 2014 #
So often we see organizations cave to a power play because there is no stomach to dig in for what is right.
Kudos to the West Seattle Senior Board for having the chutzpah to call it like it is.
This entire community stands behind you.
Well done!!!
Comment by Pibal — 5:58 pm August 25, 2014 #
Am proud of the board. Fair, even handed, thoughtful. Nice to see.
As a West Seattle Board member I thank you for your patience as we have been in discussions behind closed doors.
We have several fundraisers coming up in Sept. in which the funds raised stay with the West Seattle Senior Center and DO NOT go to the larger Senior Services Org funds. Please see the centers website for details http://www.sc-ws.org/
There is a Paella Night, Drag Queen Tupperware Party and the ever popular Rainbow BINGO planned.
Again, money raised at these events stay in West Seattle supporting the West Seattle Senior Center.
Another way to show support is volunteer! We need extra hands in the café! Easy sandwich prep and soup serving….contact Deborah at the center to get set up to volunteer.
Thank you to your patience, support and please know we hear you and are trying to ensure the stability of the center for many years to come!

Good for them! And I hope the board dumps Senior Services. We've seen their true colors.
Comment by JoAnne — 7:34 pm August 25, 2014 #
Nichole, I am SO happy… both as a West Seattle Senior Center volunteer AND as a West Seattle senior citizen, to see one of our board members speak out on this issues.
We need to see MORE of this. We (and by 'we' I mean all the seniors of West Seattle) to see 'our' board voice their support of a woman who has dedicated her life to us. We support YOU in your wise decision to stand by Karen's side.
Please, board members… let your voice be heard!

GoPro cameras mounted inside the boats of Elite pros offer a unique perspective on the Bassmaster Elite at Lake Dardanelle. These are the best stills lifted from that footage.
2014 Classic champ Randy Howell has an interesting Day 3 at Lake Dardanelle.
When the 2014 Bassmaster Elite season comes to a close, we may look back and realize that this day – this fog shortened day on Lake Dardanelle – was the determining factor in not only the Toyota Tundra Angler of the Year title, but a multitude of Bassmaster Classic berths as well.
B.A.S.S. photographer Seigo Saito caught up with several of the Elites as they fished the first day of the Bassmaster Elite at Lake Dardanelle.
Take a look behind the scenes on Day 1 of the Bassmaster Elite at Lake Dardanelle.
B.A.S.S. photographer James Overstreet catches up with the Elite Series anglers as they take on Lake Dardanelle.
The pros get their game faces on before taking on Lake Dardanelle in Russellville, Ark.
Take time to look at the multiple events the pros have fished on Dardanelle so you can estimate who will repeat their good fortune.
Bassmaster Classic champion Randy Howell took the mound at a minor league baseball game Thursday night to cast the ceremonial first pitch.
Several pros aren't likely to draw lots of players' attention but could still rack up big Fantasy Fishing points.

COURTHOUSE Ś A Hatfield Township woman and former teacher at Calvary Baptist School in Towamencin has been taught a lesson by prosecutors Ś having an inappropriate relationship with a teenager leads to jail time.
Nicole Jacques, 27, of the 2000 block of Maple Avenue, was sentenced in Montgomery County Court on Friday to 11 Į to 23 months in the county jail, to be followed by three yearsÆ probation, after she pleaded guilty to a felony charge of corruption of a minor in connection with incidents that occurred between February 2011 and February 2012 with a 15-year-old boy she once taught.
ōJail time was important to punish her appropriately for what she did as well as to send a message to the community in general that you canÆt engage in sexual relationships with minors,ö said Assistant District Attorney Matthew Quigg. ōThis defendant engaged in a sexual relationship with somebody that she knew through her capacity of being a teacher. She knew that he was 15 years old at the time she engaged in this sexual relationship with him and thatÆs why she had to pay the price for it.ö
Judge Wendy Demchick-Alloy ordered Jacques to have no contact with the boy as a condition of the sentence. Jacques must report to the jail on Aug. 26 to begin serving her sentence, and she is eligible for the jailÆs work release program.
An evaluation by the Pennsylvania Sexual Offender Assessment Board determined that Jacques does not meet criteria under PennsylvaniaÆs MeganÆs Law to be classified as a sexually violent predator. However, Jacques, who was represented by defense lawyer Matthew Wilkov, will have to report her address to state police for 15 years to comply with certain provisions of MeganÆs Law.
ōBy virtue of this she will never be able to teach again,ö Quigg said. ōItÆs very important that she be put in a position where she has a conviction on her record that will make it impossible for her to ever have a job around children again.ö
Jacques met the 15-year-old youth through her former job at Calvary Baptist School, according to the affidavit of probable cause. She resigned her teaching position in 2011 but continued to communicate with the teenager, police alleged.
The boyÆs father contacted Hatfield police in February 2012 about the relationship between Jacques and his son, according to an arrest affidavit filed by Hatfield Township police Officer Thomas Starner. The father, after reviewing a cell phone bill, observed ōan excessive amount of texts and phone callsö coming from a land line phone and a cell phone linked to Jacques, according to the criminal complaint.
A Verizon statement showed 1,168 text messages between Jacques and the teenager between Jan. 23 and Feb. 9, police alleged. Thirty-seven phone calls between JacquesÆ land line and the boyÆs cell phone were also documented, according to court documents.
During an interview through the Mission Kids Child Advocacy Center, the boy revealed that he and Jacques had sexual contact about 70 times between February 2011 and February 2012, according to the arrest affidavit. The boy told authorities that he and Jacques ōwere involved in a romantic relationshipö during that time.
ō(The boy) stated that he and Ms. Jacques frequently spoke on the phone and also communicated via text message during this time period,ö police alleged in the criminal complaint.
The encounters allegedly occurred at JacquesÆ apartment, according to the arrest affidavit.
After leaving her teaching post, Jacques reportedly worked for a bank.
Other charges of involuntary deviate sexual intercourse, statutory sexual assault and unlawful contact with a minor were dismissed against Jacques at time of sentencing.

New York City Mayor Michael Bloomberg (I) is set to host a fundraiser for Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid (D-Nev.) in September.
Ira Stoll has a copy of the invitation, which lists Sen. Charles Schumer (D-N.Y.) as one of the guests. The event will take place in Bloomberg's home in New York Sept. 20. Tickets for the event start at $1,000 — raising $10,000 gets a donor billing as an event "chair."
Bloomberg and Reid are a bit of an odd pair, given that Reid recently broke with President Obama on his support for a planned Islamic center and mosque near Ground Zero in New York. Reid became the most prominent Democrat to say the project should be built somewhere else.
Bloomberg is one of the project's strongest defenders and has assailed opponents of the plan. Earlier this month, he said those who spoke out against the project should be "ashamed."
Bloomberg has endorsed and held fundraising events for both Republicans and Democrats this cycle. He is backing Sen. Michael Bennet (D-Colo.) and Rep. Joe Sestak (D-Pa.) in their Senate races. He is also supporting the Senate bids of Reps. Mike Castle (R-Del.) and Mark Kirk (R-Ill.).

The National Security Strategy
Foreign Navies
Vietnam has become a major customer of Russian naval equipment
Vietnam has become a major customer of Russian naval equipment
World Arms Trade Analytic Center
Implementing modernization program of its national navy, Vietnam has become one of the major customers of Russian naval hardware. Total cost of Vietnam's orders for Russian maritime equipment is comparable to current contracts with Indian Navy.
Admiralteyskie Verfi
shipyard conducted a keel-laying ceremony of the first out of six Project 636
diesel electric submarines for export. Officially, the orderer was not disclosed, although most likely that is Vietnam. It should be noted that the second of two
frigates was recently delivered to Vietnamese Navy.
At present, there is an obvious misbalance in the structure of Vietnamese Navy, because in contrast to surface ships, shaping of submarine fleet has been out of spotlight for a long time. With this in mind, it was not a big surprise that in May 2009 Vietnam declared it was on the verge of a contract with Russia for six Project 636
class diesel electric subs. It was also reported that the order would be executed by
Admiralteyskie Verfi
Late 2009 Russia and Vietnam tied a $2 bln delivery contract for six
class diesel submarines. Three months later, the parties initiated talks on construction of a basing site and appropriate infrastructure. Experts appraise financial component of this program as a sum comparable or even higher than the cost of submarines themselves.
Concurrently with shaping of submarine fleet, Vietnam fell into modernization of most surface ships and boats. Lion's share of Vietnam's upgrade programs in the area of surface fleet is also related with Russia.
In June 2007 Zelenodolsk Shipyard kicked off construction of two
frigates under a contract with Vietnamese Navy signed in December 2006. The first ship was launched in Dec 2009, the second one in March 2010. Delivery of the first frigate to the orderer was carried out in July 2010, another one on Aug 23, 2010.
Export variant of
frigate was developed on the basis of Project 11661. It is designed for search, tracking, and engagement of surface, underwater, and aerial targets both independently and within a task unit; escorting convoys; conducting patrols; protection of sea borders and economic zone.
for Vietnam was built under stealth technology. The ship is armed with SAM system
with new optical-electronic guidance system and
missile system. The project provides equipping the ship with deck-based helicopter
Negotiations are held with Vietnam on building of other two frigates
. It was previously reported that the contract would be signed in the current year.
In summer 2002 two Project 1041.2
patrol boats ordered by Vietnamese Navy were launched at
shipyard (St. Petersburg). Both of them were delivered to the orderer in January 2003. The construction was carried out under the contract signed by Vietnam and
in November 2001.
class boats are designed for protection of sea borders, littoral lanes, and anti-poaching operations. The ship is armed with two
gun mounts, and antiaircraft system
Then Vietnam expressed intentions to prolong
program and build a series of 10-12 boats for the national navy. This program evolved in 2009. Totally, four Project 1041.2
patrol boats were laid down by the order of Vietnamese defense ministry in summer 2009 at two Russian shipyards (shipbuilding firm
and ship-repair plant
Vostochnaya Verf
in Vladivostok).
Shipbuilding firm
plans to complete two boats in 2010.
Vostochnaya Verf
has not reported delivery terms of the ships so far.
In March 2010 Vietnam agreed to buy an additional patrol boat
from Russia.
Shipbuilding program of guided missile boats
is also continued. Four Project 1241RE
missile boats armed with
missiles were exported to Vietnam in 90's. In 1993 Vietnam purchased a construction license for Project 1241.8
missile boats armed with
missiles. Two boats of this project built in Russia were commissioned into Vietnamese Navy. Implementation of license contract with Vietnam on 10 missile boats
will last till 2016.
Besides, Vietnam made an official request for participation in joint designing of fast-speed patrol boats with displacement of 100-400 tons.
Mobile coastal missile systems (MCMS)
K-300P Bastion-P
will be exported to Vietnam this year. Having signed a delivery contract for two systems in 2006, Vietnam was the first orderer of MCMS

Taylor Armstrong: I Didn't Abandon My Daughter Kennedy to Go on a Date!
Taylor Armstrong wants to set the record straight about what viewers saw during the Feb. 18 episode of The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills. In the opening scenes, the 41-year-old widow called her costar Kyle Richards to inform her that she won't be able to attend Kim Richards' nose job unveiling party, which was already underway. The reason, Armstrong said, was because she was on her way to the airport to meet an unnamed man for a weekend getaway. "I'm so happy and he loves Kennedy," she slurred.
Armstrong appeared to be unaware that her 6-year-old daughter was at the event with Kyle. "Oh, you have Kennedy with you?" Armstrong asked as the Richards sisters look at each other in disbelief. "You know I trust you more than any person on the planet."
PHOTOS: Controversial celebrity moms
"Well, take her," Armstrong said after some back and forth. "I'm coming back for the white party." (Recovering alcoholic Kim, 48, later questioned her costar's sobriety while discussing the incident with her castmates.)
VIDEO: Kim Richards opens up to Us about her sobriety
Kyle, 44, was visibly stunned that Armstrong was unaware of her daughter's whereabouts. "Imagine my surprise when Taylor didn't know I had her! At first I felt like I had done something wrong!" she wrote on her official Bravo blog. "Taylor had arranged for Kennedy to go to her mom's for the weekend and had no clue the nanny had decided to let her stay and play with [my daughter] Portia. I thought I would be seeing Taylor at Kim's and that she would be happy I brought both the girls with me. Some of this was discussed, but not all of our phone conversation was aired."
PHOTOS: Real Housewives of Beverly Hills' biggest bombshells
The married mother of four clarified, "My family and I love Kennedy and treat her as one of our own. Kennedy is not with us all the time. However, when she is with us, Taylor knows Kennedy is happy and taken care of. Kennedy has gone through a lot and being in a house filled with kids is a happy environment for her."
Armstrong, meanwhile, blames editing for making her look like a bad parent. "Let's talk reality. I'm so tired of friends not standing up and supporting one another when they know the truth. This week' episode makes it look like I wasn't keeping track of my precious Kennedy," she wrote on her official Bravo blog. "Nothing could be further from the truth. And Kyle knows it."
The Hiding From Reality author explained that her daughter was meant to be spending the weekend with her grandparents in Orange County. "My nanny was instructed to stop by Kyle's house prior to meeting my mother to pick up Kennedy's iPad," Armstrong wrote.
PHOTOS: Real Housewives families
"When Kennedy and the nanny stopped by, Kyle suggested Kennedy go with she and Portia to Kim's event so they could play together," Armstrong added. "Kyle is one of my closest friends and she truly has been like a second mom to Kennedy. The nanny was very aware of the strong bond between our families and knew I would have complete confidence having Kennedy with Kyle and family."
Armstrong continued, "As you can imagine, I was shocked on the phone to hear Kennedy was at Kim's because that was not the specific instruction and plan we had for the weekend. I take my responsibility for Kennedy more seriously than anything. Kyle knows this well, and I am hurt she didn't communicate this and the facts of the evening when the girls were discussing it at the table at Kim's." She also blasted newcomer Marisa Zanuck for commenting on the situation during the episode, saying she "has no business talking bout my child."
VIDEO: The biggest Real Housewives feuds of all time
The single mother -- who admitted to being "tipsy" when she phoned Kyle -- also expressed her disappointment in costar Adrienne Maloof, who was told about the situation at Kim's unveiling. "I am not surprised considering her lack of support for both Kennedy and me over the last few years, just disappointed. . .again."
Costar Brandi Glanville -- who did not attend the unveiling but did watch the episode -- shared her take on the situation with Us Weekly before signing copies of her new book, Drinking & Tweeting: and Other Brandi Blunders, at Barnes & Noble in West Hollywood Feb. 20. "I just can't imagine that it went down exactly that way. . .Taylor is obviously a mess emotionally and going through a lot," the 40-year-old model said. "I don't know -- I feel like Kyle having that conversation about Taylor at a party with people that don't even know her that well, it was really not okay. It's not okay."
VIDEO: Taylor Armstrong tells Us she's ready to reconcile with Brandi Glanville
Glanville added, "If my best friend were going through something and she left her kid with me and forgot about it, or whatever it was, I don't think I'd tell anyone. I would be like,'"You know what, this kid is better off with me right now.' Would you rather have her with Taylor, who is a mess, or have her be happy with Portia?"

Welcome to EAHIL
Health and illness know no frontiers. The sciences that investigate them are perhaps the least affected by cultural variations. The systems for delivering health care in different countries of Europe have more common features than differences, despite political and economic influences. As a result European medical librarians and information workers have a great deal in common, regardless of the institution they work for or the country where they live. This realisation led to the formation of EAHIL to improve library services to the health professions by cooperation and shared experience across national boundaries.
Join eahil
Would you like to be a part of a European network of health information professionals?

I'm not going to argue on the tuning base for the Hartge F10 M5 other than just say that their car is awesome and seems to be quick
However I believe you forget Hartge's history with cars like the E30 H35 24V cars etc. Hartge is also classed as a manufacturer in Germany and have their own VIN numbers stamped on the cars. So I believe they are more than just wheels...
I know what they are and know their cars. They are primarily a wheels company. If you want a legitimate tune on an F10 get the PP Performance tune. When there is an F10 running the Hartge Piggy back tune for a decent length of time with no issues with the DME reverting to stock or shutting the car down then we will know. Right now I know no one who has one. I also cannot seem to find the Hartge tune actually offered for sale. I truly can only speak tot he tune that is on my car and of it's actual performance. I literally have a hard time keeping the tires down. It spins pretty much at will. Acceleration is far greater than it was in stock form. Be careful believing Dynos as discussed in prior threads ad nauseam. And we know trap speeds vary highly as well. On that note I guess I cannot verify first hand that they do not do their engine tune in-house but I find it highly unlikely. Would love to see proof of this somewhere and to also see the tune on someone's F10 M% and running for $3K miles or so without issue. My intent is not to be negative. There have been some attempts at piggybacks and they have not worked out. I just saw one "visible" tuner on here making claims about gains on the "tune" and then showing the car on the Dyno with the hood up. One of the most basic things you CANNOT do when performing a Dyno on an F10 M5. I can't imagine any of the precise processes for logging and comparing to tables were truly followed if they can't even remember the simplest thing like closing the hood. This is a different and very smart car. Gotta do things correctly or the DME will outsmart you.
