Don't worry though, we have a lot more Brake Levers & Integrated Shifters in stock than that.View Similar Products
SRAM Red 22 Shift/Hydraulic Brake Levers - Rim $0.00
In addition to Red 22's new gearing configurations made possible by its 11th cog, we would argue that the biggest impact of the new group comes from the introduction of integrated hydraulic brakes. Just as the 11th gear marks a first for its road groupsets, SRAM's integrated hydraulic road braking options mark a first for any of cycling's major component companies. Both of SRAM's Hydraulic Road Rim (HRR) and Hydraulic Road Disc (HRD) options were engineered to complement the new 11-speed Red 22 drivetrain, and they both use SRAM's newly designed levers and hood bodies to produce more braking force, with less hand effort, than any mechanical system.
Upon first glance, you'll notice the Hydro R hoods look substantially larger than Red's Ergofit bodies. In reality, this boxy-looking hood shape is only slightly taller than the mechanical hoods, but the master cylinder head unit lends itself to the more prominent appearance. However, with all of the hydraulics housed within the hood, SRAM's able to keep its comfortable Ergofit hood feel with the new shifter construction. Like the Ergofit design, the padded, textured rubber and narrow profile carry over to enhance grip and reduce hand fatigue. Moving down from the hoods, you'll notice the front half of the levers keep the contoured shape of the Ergofit bodies, but the pivots have been lowered to accommodate the newly designed hoods. The back half of the levers remain unchanged, providing you with the same large carbon shifting paddles and crisp DoubleTap mechanism found in the mechanical bodies. Similarly, the independent reach-adjustment screws are still conveniently located on the inside of the levers. Cable routing, however, for both the shifter and brake is restricted to the inside of the bars.
For the Hydraulic Road Rim Calipers, the overall system is not overly complex. As you pull the lever, the plunger within the master cylinder moves upward and directs oil straight into the hose. At the single pivot caliper, fluid enters, makes a U-turn, and pushes a small piston up to engage your brakes. This minimal movement of the piston becomes the key to the HRR's incredible modulation. With just a couple of millimeters of piston travel, the wheel will lock up. But this action only occurs deep into the lever's pull, providing you with fine control over how much power you put into the brakes. In other words, this system provides a large amount of movement at the lever compared to the small but powerful movement at the caliper. Additionally, because it's fully closed with no cable friction, it's incredibly smooth and requires just a light amount of pressure to rapidly scrub speed.
The HRR calipers' appearance doesn't deviate too far from the Red's Aerolink design. They're still very svelte and lightweight, and they are compatible with standard pads, frames, and wheels (up to 28mm rim widths). At the top of the calipers, you receive a barrel adjusters and quick-release levers. The large barrel adjuster works just like a cable-actuated lever and provides you with a large range of adjustment, making it easy to control how much pre-movement you prefer before the brakes engage.
Like SRAM's Avid brakes, the Hydraulic Road line uses DOT5.1fluid and uses Avid's bleed kit. The bleed port is located at the top of the master cylinder, and it's kept separate from the brake fluid's normal path. SRAM's new Connectamajig (yes, you read it correctly) is the coupling hose that makes initial setup easy, as it easily pushes in and twists into place. With this Connectamajig, you can now recouple the hose after running it through the frame, without the need to fully bleed the system. And because hydraulic hoses are easily swapped out, SRAM gives you the option of running standard and "moto" (left hand brakes the rear wheel) setups.

Hi all,
I have opened a similar thread about RC1 previously already.
Now I have uninstalled RC1 and installed the latest version (build10580) and wanted to let you know that I am still not able to run ZD2 (I have seen some posts in other forums with the same problem).
I am trying to run zdrun.vbs from the folder:
C:\Program Files (x86)\Zimbra\Zimbra Desktop\win32
But after some time I get this error message:
A script on this page may be busy, or it may have stopped responding. You can stop the script now, or you can continue to see if the script will complete.

jflanigan mentioned in a reply last week: "It could be that jetty is not starting correctly."
Any ideas?

HAFTR Highlights
Charting a course toward college
1 2 3 Next page >
For Hebrew Academy of the Five Towns and Rockaway (HAFTR) High School juniors, college is just around the corner. Most students are quite uncertain where they will be applying. The school's April 17 College Fair was a big help.
The night began with a panel of six college admission representatives from Barnard, Baruch and Queens colleges, New York, Stony Brook and Yeshiva universities. Lyle Scott Wind from Stony Brook University moderated. Wind provided an excellent overview of the college admissions process. The panel then reviewed hypothetical applications from three HAFTR students, looking at the students' transcripts, resumes, SAT/ACT scores, teacher recommendations, and personal statements. Each student had unique qualities, and each member on the panel discussed whether or not the student would be a good candidate for their university and why.
During the next phase of the program, students and parents had the opportunity to select three meetings (20 minutes each) to attend. At each, the university representative described campus life, tuition costs, and unique courses the school offers. With the chance to attend three different sessions, students were able to get a feel for college life; they really began to understand what specific characteristics — size, location, and private vs. public — they preferred.
Afterwards everyone proceeded to a large room where they had the opportunity to confer with any representative they wished. This experience was of unparalleled assistance to juniors who really did not know where to begin. It gave them direction, and helped them decide which college path they wanted to pursue. "Do I want a big school or a small school; city or urban? After tonight, I can give a more definitive answer. I now know what type of things I am going to look for in my quest to find the perfect college," said one student.
Thank you to the HAFTR College Guidance office for arranging this worthwhile evening, which will assist students on their path to composing a list of appropriate college matches.

Moscow:Ukraine must pay us the $2 billion for gas deliveries
Newscast Media MOSCOW—The head of Russia's state-run energy company Gazprom
said Friday that Ukraine has stopped paying for Russian gas supplies, which could
trigger a repetition of 2009's so-called "gas war" between the two countries.
According to Alexei Miller, crisis-hit Ukraine owes Russia about $1.89 billion in unpaid
natural gas bills after failing to pay for February supplies.
"This violates our contract and international trade practices. We cannot supply
natural gas for free," Miller told reporters in Moscow. CONTINUE TO FULL STORY>>

Pope Benedict XVI has given his pontificate's final Sunday blessing from his studio window to the cheers of tens of thousands of people in St. Peter's Square.
Benedict says even though he's retiring on Thursday from the papacy, the first pope in 600 years to do so, he's `'not abandoning the church."
Instead he says he'll serve the church with the same dedication he has till now, but will do so in a way `'more suitable to my age and my strength."
Benedict, 85, will spend his last years in prayer, meditation and seclusion in a monastery on Vatican City's grounds.
He has one more public appearance, at his weekly audience on Wednesday in the square.

Costa Rica Helsar de Zarcero Villa Sarchi
Helsar de Zarcero represents the combined efforts of Ricardo Perez Barrantes and Rodriguez Villalobos. Their farms are on a high ridge in the area of Alajuela, in the coffee areas of both Zarcero and Naranjo. This MicroLot represents all the Villa Sarchi on their farms. This is a very clean and mild coffee, and we wanted to see if we can pull more dimension out of it by blending 2 roasts. We roasted half the coffee to a very light 428 f, a City roast, and then the other half to 435 f, City +. We blended them evenly. It's too early to cup the results, but we hope to get the clean peach and mild citrus of the light roast with some additional mild chocolate from the C+ roast. I'll update the post or make a comment after cupping in a couple of days. -Tom

Note: You may notice these things when you first begin taking a stimulant medication. Until you know how the medication will affect you, you should avoid driving, operating machinery, and doing hazardous activities.
- Sodium oxybate (Xyrem)
Sodium oxybate is used to treat cataplexy. It is a drug that can be abused, so it is a controlled substance. Abuse can cause serious problems, such as trouble breathing, seizures, loss of consciousness, coma, and death. Abuse can also lead to dependence, craving, and withdrawal symptoms. If you are prescribed sodium oxybate, you will have to get the medicine from one central pharmacy. It is not available anywhere else.
Sodium oxybate can reduce the number of cataplexy attacks. But, it must be taken exactly as prescribed. The medicine works very fast, so you need to take it only when you are ready to fall asleep. Sodium oxybate must be taken in two doses each night. The first dose is taken right at bedtime and the second dose is taken 2-1/2 to 4 hours later. You will probably need to wake yourself up to take the second dose. The most common side effects are nausea, lightheadedness, headache, sleep problems, confusion, vomiting, and bed-wetting.
Do not engage in activities that require alertness, such as driving, for six hours after taking the medication. Do not use alcohol or other sedatives while taking this medicine. Your doctor must instruct you in the safe and effective use of this medicine.
Common names include:
- Imipramine (Tofranil)
- Desipramine (Norpramin)
- Clomipramine (Anafranil)
- Protriptyline (Vivactil)
You may be given a tricyclic antidepressant if you have symptoms, such as attacks of weakness, hallucinations as sleep begins, or sleep paralysis. To avoid stomach upset, take your tricyclic antidepressants with food, unless your doctor has told you otherwise.
Possible side effects include:
- Dry mouth
- Lightheadedness, drowsiness, or blurred vision
- Low or high blood pressure
- Constipation
- Increased effects from alcohol, sleeping pills, tranquilizers, or sedatives
- Sensitivity to sun
- Blood sugar changes in people with diabetes
- Hyperthermia—elevated body temperature
- Risk of severe mood and behavior changes, including suicidal thoughts in some patients. Young adults may be at a higher risk for this side effect.
Common names include:
- Fluoxetine (Prozac)
- Paroxetine (Paxil)
- Sertraline (Zoloft)
You may be given an SSRI to treat weakness, hallucinations as sleep begins, or sleep paralysis. If this medication upsets your stomach, you can take it with food.
Do not take monoamine oxidase (MAO) inhibitors:
- During SSRI therapy
- For two weeks prior to starting SSRI therapy
- For five weeks after stopping SSRI therapy
Serious side effects of SSRI antidepressants include:
- Anxiety
- Mania
- Serious weight loss
- Weight gain
- Seizures
- Low blood sugar in people with diabetes
- Lightheadedness, drowsiness, or blurred vision
- Arrhythmia
- Risk of severe mood and behavior changes, including suicidal thoughts in some patients. Young adults may be at a higher risk for this side effect.
Note: You may notice these symptoms when you first begin taking a medication. Until you know how the medication will affect you, you should avoid driving, operating machinery, and doing hazardous activities.
Special Considerations
If you are taking medications, follow these general guidelines:
- Take your medication as directed. Do not change the amount or the schedule.
- Do not stop taking them without talking to your doctor.
- Do not share them.
- Ask what the results and side effects may be. Report them to your doctor.
- Some drugs can be dangerous when mixed. Talk to a doctor or pharmacist if you are taking more than one drug. This includes over-the-counter medication and herb or dietary supplements.

Jupiter was showing its 'boring' side, which didn't seem all that boring to me. One of the first features to catch my attention was the very white ovals in the NEB. The first one was very prominent but the second one took a bit more effort to confirm. The NEB also seemed to display quite a bit of texture, indicating a lot of activity. The SEB was much more uniform and bland looking. When I observed the NTB It appeared bold and rough. There must have been quite a lot of swirling going on. The STB was quite the opposite, appearing very thin and light. The band along the equator had a ghostly character to it, appearing momentarily and mostly only showing one part or another. The NPC appeared bland and lighter than I have observed it, and I'm not sure if this was due to the observing conditions. The SPC was very light, so much so that one edge seemed to disappear at times. I did catch the dark partial band in the SPC, as well as the slight light streaks along both polar caps, especially the SPC.
Any color appearing in my sketch is due to scanning and posting. As noted, I could not see any color last night due to light pollution and humidity.

NORME: I logged on after finishing my sketch and happened to see your latest Jupiter post. Although your sketch is in a class of its own, the similarities between your sketch and mine are pretty apparent. You and I observed the same side of Jupiter, although I'm sure it was 10hr or 20hr apart.

Sleep... What sleep?!
There is no shortage of super helpful people who take some sort of pleasure in telling you how little sleep you are going to have once your twins arrive. Sadly they were all correct!
My name is Marcus Wild. I live in Raumati South, New Zealand with my beautiful wife Sarah and lovable Labrador Poppy. I am a Video Channel Manager at Xero and very recently found out my wife is expecting... twins!
I'm going to share my experiences becoming a first time father, all the ups (and downs!) of our journey towards becoming parents and the roller-coaster adventure once they arrive.
Marcus will be using a duet once the babies arrive.
Sleep... What sleep?!
There is no shortage of super helpful people who take some sort of pleasure in telling you how little sleep you are going to have once your twins arrive. Sadly they were all correct!
Home sweet home!
This title is the best possible summary I can give of our time in the neonatal intensive care unit or NICU - it is simply said, a place that changes lives forever.
I am glad to say that for us, it changed our lives for the better.
Birth is nothing like they depict in the movies and TV shows, as much as that sounds obvious and something we all know, it is worth reminding yourself in the last days and hours before your baby or babies arrive.
Please remember, this is my birth story - not Sarah's and also not one of those horrible stories you simply should not read before your birth. Birth for a father is a life changing experience and not just because you end up holding a bundle of joy and life long commitment :) This blog is a bit photo bare, this is due to me not wanting to share some of the moments that are special to just us. I hope you understand.
The last weeks and days leading up to the girls' birth were the most testing - this statement is no longer true but how was I to know the blur that would overcome us once they arrived!
This is not a typo - not this time. But the first time it was... or perhaps Apple had nailed the auto correction on the iPhone this time and had it right?
Rewinding a little here, we had signed up for our local (correctly spelt) antenatal classes. I know it seems that there is a recurring theme in my blogs of me having no idea of what I'm doing, and I'm sure I still don't, but I promise our twins will be quite safe - Sarah knows what she is doing.
I know that shopping and showers isn't your normal mix - unless you are doing up your bathroom, and let's face it, if you have a baby on the way, that is the last thing on your mind! But this mix is one of the most important for a parent to be.
Once the initial excitement of finding out we were having twins subsided I was left with a sudden sinking feeling. It first started as we drove home from our three month scan - questions swirling in my head like 'will we need a bigger car?' 'how will we know what car seat to put in?' 'how will they both fit inside Sarah for that long?', and the all important recurring question 'will I be a good father?'

While diligently working on a very productive Friday afternoon (seriously!), I ran into an old friend online. I know what you're thinking, "Jen's been wasting time on Facebook again." But it's not like that, ya'll. While planning out a strategy for Pulse 2010 communications, I decided to try and get to know some of the new friends that www.facebook.com/ibmpulse has made lately. It's important to know your audience before blasting off something awkward in social cyberspace that provokes an encore performance from Keyboard Cat.
One of the new Pulse friends had posted a really neat little video that sings the praises of Geekdom called I AM A GEEK by the Society for Geek Advancement. Now, I'm not exactly sure when it became cool to be a geek, but the tables have indeed turned. Never mind snarky little Mac commercials that pick on poor old beige PC. Those, IMHO, are so 2000-late.
As I watched this video, I was filled with pride and an instant kinship with the geeks it profiled. If I hadn't been so distracted by my growling tummy, I would have even gotten a little misty [enter Keyboard Cat].
Only a geek can understand how I became BFFs with pals I met online. And not just because they read the same mystery series I read, but specifically because we share the same favorite character in that series. I suddenly felt like Rudolph and Hermey (You know! That elf that wanted to be a dentist?) when they landed on the Isle of Misfit Toys.
After the video, I wanted to peruse the sponsoring website www.geekadvancement.com. There, I noticed that I was encouraged to purchase a T-shirt that says, "I AM A GEEK" so that I can "be the geek that keeps on giving." Wha . . . ?
Maybe the cool geek thing was wearing out it's welcome a leeeeeettle too fast. I was just about to blow that popsicle stand when I noticed some barely readable text that sent my heart a pitter-pattering as it once again filled with that warm and fuzzy feeling of familiarity. Next to the graphic of the T-shirt I was solicited to buy were the words:
"All proceeds go to Room to Read, building schools and libraries for children in developing countries around the world."
Pulse 2008 veterans, it's pop quiz time! Who is the founder of Room to Read and what high paying gig did he walk away from to change the world through literacy?
A. Lance Armstrong
B. Hootie and the Blowfish
C. John Wood
Click the following video for the answer, kids:
I still think I'd rather donate cash to Room to Read than buy a shirt with that kind of proclamation.

This new procedure was approved with fairness to all library customers in mind: materials that are not returned may not be checked out by other customers. In addition, money taken from the library's budget to replace non-returned items could be better spent purchasing new materials. The use of a credit reporting agency is known to effectively encourage all library borrowers to return items by the date due.
Anoka County Library will continue to let customers know if their materials are overdue with ample time to respond before their account is turned over for credit reporting.
Want to avoid the hassle of an overdue headache?
· Return library materials on time, in good condition or renew items before they are overdue.
· Pay fines or make payments within a reasonable amount of time.
This new policy will not affect the vast majority of ACL customers who return their materials on time.
Most library items can be renewed in person, by phone or online. Please note that items with holds or rental DVDs may not be renewed. Bookdrops for returning material after hours are conveniently located at all branches.
Access your account 24/7 through the website at anokacountylibrary.org. If you have any questions about your account, please contact your local library.

The Murder of Civilisation
An Englishman lost in afternoon tea,
Memories of a lotus flower love
Rajas and elephants in Delhi
Livingstone the explorer
Religion to convert
Laurence of Arabia
A leader of men
The Boers and the Zulus
Gordon and Khartoum
These are the things that shook the world
Silk and Cotton,
The wealth of Empire
Earl Mountbatten our man in Burma
The cry of Bombay and Ceylon
Oblivious to a young man's dream
England was the world
Her Empire was great
For the sun never did sett
On her wealth
The jewel in this noble crown
Yet History was not kind
Exploitation her crime
Though civilisation came hand in hand
For Freedom we planted
Democracy you chanted
The union jack you did burn
And what have you learned
Greed breeds poverty in silence
Sectarian dogma your anthem
Murder by the chosen few
How flourishes your tree
When your morals all flee
With bombs in the souk
And murder by troops
Education restricted
The poor evicted
To make way for corruption
And tyrants consumption
Look to the horizon
For there lies Britain
It's empire gone
But our pride lingers on
Can your freedom say the same?
Or is oil to blame?
Who shall we accuse?
For your freedoms abuse?
Not the British
Love us or hate us
England brought you civilisation
And civilisation lives on
In this green and pleasant land

Local institutions help navigate college financial aid options
By Michele Dotson
On Saturday, February 20, college bound teens and their parents converged on local public institutions offering help in deciphering the first step in getting financial aid; the Free Application for Student Financial Aid (FASFA).
Both Hickory Grove Public Library, and the State Employees Credit Union in Mint Hill (and all across the state) were open and staffed with volunteers to help take that first, vital step.
All students are expected to contribute towards the cost of their college education. But how much a student and his family will be expected to contribute depends on individuals' financial situation. […]

Staff Report
Published Dec. 6, 2012
U.S. Sen. Jim DeMint said today he will resign from the Senate in January to become president of The Heritage Foundation, a conservative think tank in Washington, D.C.
Gov. Nikki Haley will name a successor to fill DeMint's seat until a special election in 2014, the same year U.S. Sen. Lindsey Graham faces re-election. DeMint's term expires in 2016.
Sen. Jim DeMint
"I want to make two things clear from the outset. No. 1, I will not take the appointment myself," Haley said in a statement emailed to the press. "No. 2, I will appoint a person who has the same philosophy of government that Jim DeMint and I share. With all the challenges we face as a state and nation, it is essential that the next senator from South Carolina be dedicated to the principles that our state most values."
DeMint, a conservative Republican from the Upstate, was first elected to the Senate in 2004, after serving three terms in the U.S. House of Representatives. He was re-elected in 2010.
"I'm leaving the Senate now, but I'm not leaving the fight. I've decided to join The Heritage Foundation at a time when the conservative movement needs strong leadership in the battle of ideas," DeMint said in a news release. "No organization is better equipped to lead this fight and I believe my experience in public office as well as in the private sector as a business owner will help Heritage become even more effective in the years to come."
At the nonprofit foundation, DeMint succeeds Ed Feulner, who helped develop the conservative advocacy group in 1973.
"I couldn't be more pleased with the board's selection," Feulner said in a news release. "Jim DeMint understands that conservative principles and values advance the interests of all Americans — regardless of age, gender, wealth or race. He is firmly committed (to) Heritage's immutable mission: to build an America where freedom, opportunity, prosperity and civil society flourish."
Said DeMint: "I'm humbled to follow in the footsteps of Ed Feulner, who built the most important conservative institution in the nation. He has been a friend and mentor for years and I am honored to carry on his legacy of fighting for freedom.
"My constituents know that being a Senator was never going to be my career. I came to Congress as a citizen legislator and I've always been determined to leave it as citizen legislator. South Carolina has a deep bench of conservative leaders and I know Gov. Haley will select a great replacement."
Haley released a statement lauding DeMint's service.
"U.S. Sen. Jim DeMint has served South Carolina and the national conservative movement exceptionally well. His voice for freedom and limited government has been a true inspiration. On a personal level, I value Jim's leadership and friendship. Our state's loss is the Heritage Foundation's gain. I wish Jim and Heritage all the best in continuing our shared commitment to America's greatness."
Republican Rep. Trey Gowdy called on Haley to consider S.C. congressmen Tim Scott, Mick Mulvaney, Jeff Duncan or Joe Wilson for the post.
"I know Gov. Nikki Haley will make the decision that is best for South Carolina, and I pray the Lord will give her wisdom," Gowdy said. "There are scores of talented women and men in South Carolina who are qualified to be considered. I hope she will consider my four congressional colleagues Tim Scott, Mick Mulvaney, Jeff Duncan or Joe Wilson."
Scott, a Lowcountry Republican, said: "I first want to thank Sen. DeMint for the tremendous work he has done on behalf of South Carolina and the nation. His commitment to conservative principles leaves a true legacy, and I have greatly enjoyed getting to know and work with him over the past two years. Looking forward, Gov. Haley will now appoint a new senator, and I know she will make the right choice both for South Carolina and the nation."
DeMint was elected to the U.S. House of Representatives in 1998 after owning an advertising and market research company for 20 years. DeMint left the House after limiting himself to three terms.
"One of the most rewarding things I've done in the Senate is work with the grassroots to help elect a new generation of leaders who have the courage to fight for the principles of freedom that make this country so great. I'm confident these senators will continue the legacy of conservative leaders before them," DeMint said.

I'm not a fan of using JuCo players for more than a (very) occasional stop-gap. Even Gilstrap, although he was better than the typical JuCo kid, did very, very little for us as a program.
Admittedly, I don't know much about McRoy, but at first glance, I think Hoiberg could have done better here.

He's just upset that KU lost to yet another low seeded mid major. Screwed up his bracket. Let him enjoy the feeling that he knows something about basketball by not being impressed with an assistant coach hire.
"Blamo"! The new CF approved swear word.

Does this open up a spot for Mike Leach???

You just have to stretch first to warm up. That's how I keep from injuring myself anyway.
In his interview before the season I got the impression that he doesn't do much other than recruit. And he hasn't been the lead guy for any of our best recruits so this doesn't surprise me much.
Interesting. McRoy came to us after he spent very little time at Arkansas State and now leaves us after one year. Was this a case McRoy is moving to a better position/situation for him or is it one of those "both parties felt it was best" things?

We try and hunt Northern California Xzones Nevada and Idaho routinely and would like to get some quality binos.
I know you get what you pay for but Swarovski and the others that are $1000 and up just are not in the cards right now. I know some of the upstart companies have some good stuff as well as some that have come out with some budget minded stuff made with cheaper labor
I am thinking I want 10X42s
Highly considering ZenRays, The new Zeiss and anything else in that $400 price point

The top management of ATP are always think(ing) about continuing playing more and more tournaments in this kind of surface. I think it's not a good way, because if I look the locker room and you look in the trainers' room, everybody have problems, no? On the knees on the foot, every player, no, here (pointing to the hip). So I think it's not the good way. It's the hardest surface for the body, that's for sure.
One major factor weighing in hardcourts favor, though, is the low cost of maintaining the surface which certainly makes sense when considering the number of tournaments around the world. Plus, it gives a true bounce which most ballers enjoy.
I don't see this changing in the near future. But if it did, I'd give my vote to more grass.

Dickerson to play in Rising Stars Game
Kansas City prospect Joe Dickerson, an outfielder for the Surprise Rafters in the Arizona Fall League, has been selected to play in the league's Rising Stars Game.
Dickerson, 22, earned Carolina League Postseason All-Star recognition in 2008 after batting .297 with 5 home runs and 45 RBI for the Wilmington Blue Rocks. Dickerson finished second among Carolina League players with 10 triples and in a tie for eighth with 24 stolen bases despite missing the last six weeks of the season with a broken index finger.
The Rising Stars Game is scheduled for Friday, October 24 at 7:15 p.m. at Surprise Stadium, the spring training home of the Royals. It's an off day from the World Series, so if you're a Royals fan living in or around Surprise, stop by and cheer for Joe!

128-Voice Synthesizer Module
A.The maximum sampling time of each model is:
Approx. 107 min. (in monaural), 53 min. (in stereo)
Approx. 104 min. (in monaural), 52 min. (in stereo)
Approx. 102 min. (in monaural), 51 min. (in stereo)
The maximum sampling time is achieved with the DIMM memory fully expanded
(512MB DIMM plus the built-in memory).
A fully expanded Fantom-X has such a long sampling time that it can actually be used as a digital RAM recorder.
For example, you could start a song using the Fantom-X's sequencer, and then use the sampling function to record a vocal and/or guitar part along with it. Then you could re-sample the entire song through the built-in Mastering Effect, capturing your mix as a .WAV or AIFF file. From there, you could use the Fantom-X's USB connector to export that file to a USB-equipped computer for CD burning or further editing.

This is a call for entries for the RRIIPC that will be happening in my living room at some point in the future. Forget all those other important photo competitions. This one is more important because there are not one, but two "really's " in front of the name!
The entry fees range from $65-$1200 depending on my mood at the time.
Rules: All entries become my property to do with as I see fit. Once per year you will be allowed to display your image ( which is now mine) for your own personal benefit. Any financial benefits though will be paid directly to the RRIIPC.
There will be a cash prize, and dont forget, you can tell all your friends that you won a contest. In fact everyone who enters will be declared the grand prize winner.
Hope to see your entries soon.

A recent survey by the Dutch Gazelle bicycle company among 800 people asked what their motives are for cycling. For short trips of around 4 km 88% uses the bike instead of the car. The main reasons: 70% said 'it's good for my health', 40% opt out of the car 'because it's good for the environment' and 35% prefer the bicycle 'because it's faster than by car'. This is common knowledge, it confirms many other surveys and research papers. I'm more interested in what follows:
66% said 'cycling clears my mind', 60% uses their time on the bike 'for deep thoughts' and 44% find it perfect 'for day dreaming'. Good, good. Here comes the kicker: it also revealed that 27% regularly flirt while cycling. Powerful. It speaks volumes on how comfortable it is to cycle in the Netherlands. Based on just this, I can easily back up what I say on a regular basis: here, cycling is like walking, a faster way of walking. It's that accessible & easy. Not just that, it's by far the most sociable mode of transportation. It confirms the fact that, particularly over here, people don't have to change into a different mental mindset when they hop on a bike. And we also know that the particular bikes we use allow us to maintain that posture in a practical sense. 'Upright is right', as it's often coined.
Flashback: Jasmijn Rijcken of Van Moof visited the New Amsterdam Bike Show in NYC almost two months ago, just like I did (on which I'll post soon). We briefly met and talked, a real pleasure. Like me, she got around town on a bike (why change a habit). All good. You'd think. A few weeks later she shared what happened to her on that day (April 30th) with Joanna of New Amsterdam Bike Show. She got stopped by a cop:
Our friend Jasmijn was stopped in SOHO by NYPD for riding in a skirt! The officer said she could distract drivers and cause an accident...and should go home and put pants on.
Outrageous, of course. Hence, this news traveled fast. I mean, real fast & around the world. I read about it first on Lovely Bike. Not surprisingly, New Yorkers on two wheels could relate to this feeling of harassment, as the NYPD has been notoriously cracking down on people on bikes for the most frivolous things, ranging from handing out tickets for having a bag hanging from the handlebar, for speeding in Central Park, to fining people for not riding in the bike lane (which resulted in the video 'Bike lanes' by Casey Neistat, that subsequently went viral worldwide).It's the infamous & flawed 'cheat sheet' at play here. So, back to skirts. Followers of this story quickly started to doubt it, as Jasmijn works for a bicycle company & she's actually responsible for its marketing efforts, viral marketing efforts. Controversy was born. Streetsblog dove into it, and they confirmed what I thought initially: if this was a stunt, it's a pretty bad one when it comes to aiming to sell bikes. It's far too risky to make it up, the backlash would destroy sales. I'd also e-mailed with Jasmijn & couldn't imagine her playing along with it off the record.
Doug Gordon of BrooklynSpoke asked if someone would be willing to organize a protest ride. Liz Patek had already been contemplating organizing 'Fancy Rides' to get more people on bikes in the Broadway bike lane, so she volunteered & combined the two: the 'Short Skirt Celebration Ride/Love The Broadway Bike Lane' for June 15th was born, with a little Facebook & blog help from Copenhagen Cycle Chic.
This is not about teaching NYPD a lesson. This is about normalizing the idea of people on bikes here in NYC. I repeat this is NOT about teaching the NYPD a lesson. If you plan on shouting or carrying protest signs, please do not join us. No silly antics or street theater please. I do welcome my friends in the Broadway community to please join us. I will send you off at 7pm so you can make your call times. This is NOT a protest; this is a Celebration of People on Bikes.
Maureen, aka @InspiredCyclist, captured it for prosperity & shared her experiences.That was Volume I.
Volume II is happening this evening. Joanna is organizing 'Skirts on BIKES: The Official NYC Ride - Celebrating Freedom and Fashion'. Initially, she had coined it a 'protest' ride, but it's good to see Liz's smarts rubbed off on her ;). The 'official' part, take it as you want. In the end, it's all about the right intentions.
Jasmijn is in NYC right now & she will be participating. I'm looking forward to hearing from her afterwards. Have fun, #BikeNYC, we'll be riding in spirit with you. (Message to #NYPD: people on bikes, get used to them, embrace them...or at least shed those inhibitions; flirt with them. You'll feel so much better.)UPDATE: Julie Hardee, aka @juleskills participated in last night's Skirts On Bikes ride and took great pictures! Looks like they had a great time celebrating. And the pictures of Jasmijn retelling her story 'on stage' are priceless :).UPDATE II: Jasmijn's company Van Moof recorded the ride, here's the result. Lovely.

Cream Cheese with Fun
Everything starts with an 8 ounce brick of cream cheese, unwrapped, room temperature, centered on a pretty plate.
Pour a small jar (about a cup) of one of the following over the cream cheese and serve with crackers:
-Jalapeño jelly or Pepper jelly (the greens and reds are very festive)
-Raspberry Chipotle Sauce
-Cover cream cheese with 1 can of drained shrimp or shredded crab, and then pour on shrimp cocktail sauce.
-Extra chunky salsa
-use that pretty little plate, that's generally too small to be the center of attention!
-do put out a butter knife, or one of those little cheese spread knives to make serving easier. This doesn't "dip" well.
-my favorite crackers for most things are Wheat thins, but have fun. Little crackers, make for lighter nibbles!

The new iPad version of Uplink appears to be using some newer saving mechanic than the PC/Mac version. Macs and PCs use the REDSHIRT format, but the iPad appears to instead be using
SAV62 at the start of saves, instead of
REDSHRT2 or something. Also, the iPad version is partially in plain text, and the rest is encoded. And if you modify any of the plain text, the save file corrupts when you try it in uplink (crashes the game). However, if you take a iPad save and put it on the PC, it runs perfectly and then saves a REDSHIRT version of the file.
Does anyone know how to decrypt this kind of encryption?

Rip the whole mountain comfortably.
XC and all-mountain riders spend as much time in the saddle as they do standing up on the pedals. For that reason, a liner short with a chamois is essential. The Alpinestars Drop Shorts incorporate a removable liner with a chamois to reduce fatigue by absorbing shock and vibration. The chamois also pulls moisture away from your body to keep you dry and comfortable.
built the Drop Shorts with strategically located stretch and vent
panels. On the back and in the crotch, spandex panels stretch for an
unlimited range of motion. This also adds
to the shorts' durability, because it stretches rather than wearing. The
synthetic fabric pulls moisture away from your body to keep you dry and
comfortable, even in the heat of the summer. Alpinestars also added zippered mesh vents on the thighs that push hot,
stale air out and allow fresh, cool air to flow in and around your body. Stretch ripstop reinforcements at the hem add durability.
A removable liner with a chamois absorbs shock and vibration to reduce fatigue. It also manages moisture to keep you dry and comfortable. The liner can also be worn with other shorts, so you can transform any of your other shorts into bike shorts. Alpinestars also included hook-and-loop waist adjustment straps that allow you to perfectly dial in your fit, and flat side pockets provide comfortable, convenient, secure storage while you ride.
Alpinestars Drop Shorts come in Black/White, True Red/White, Bright Green/White, and White/Black and are available in even sizes 28 to 40.
- Stretch inserts at back and crotch
- Zippered mesh thigh inserts
- Removable chamois liner

Reviews & Community
These shorts rock!
- Familiarity: I've used it several times
- Fit: True to size
- Size Bought: 34
These shorts are lightweight, stretch in all the right places, and are still durable enough to hold up through my first few crashes in them. These shorts fit a little snug around the thighs, and since I prefer a baggier fit I went up a size and am not disappointed, as the velcro waist adjustments on either side make for a perfect fit every time! I highly recommend these shorts!
Great shorts!
- Familiarity: I've put it through the wringer
- Fit: Runs small
- Size Bought: 36
Taken a few spills on these things and they're still holding up. They run a bit small, but then again, I have big thighs. I've always loved alpinestars and they never let me down.
Nice Shorts! Run Small
- Familiarity: I've used it once or twice and have initial impressions
- Fit: Runs small
These are nice shorts with good ventilation. I was hoping to use these for DH or Enduro riding, but I am afraid a crash would tear up these pricey shorts. I would suggest ordering a size up, especially if you ever wear hip pads. I am a size 32/33 waist in most jeans. But a 34 was way too snug in the legs and butt. Ultimately went with a 36.
Light and Durable!
- Familiarity: I've put it through the wringer
- Fit: True to size
After riding these for a season, I have to say its one of the best pairs of shorts I've ever owned. I've ridden lots of shorts from Maloja, Fox, One Industries, and TLD, but always choose these. Light enough for hot summer trail rides, and durable enough for lift serviced shredding. Fit is true to size, and there are good vents and pockets for the necessities.
Worth every penny !
- Familiarity: I've put it through the wringer
- Fit: True to size
The fit is great , pockets galore, strong ,
Going to buy a second pair .
Rear View
See what these shorts look like on a real man - and BC employee!
He models these rugged shorts to perfection.
Fit like a glove!
- Familiarity: I've put it through the wringer
- Fit: True to size
AMAZING fitting riding shorts, stretchy lightweight fabric feels like im wearing compression. but since i dread wearing spandex these are the next best thing! NOT skin tight these are normal riders shorts. they fit true and look awesome. The Chamois is a little snug but overall awesome product!
Great shorts
- Familiarity: I've used it several times
- Fit: True to size
I've used these x3 since I've gotten them. They fit true to size, not loose as the tech specs state. Great material with good breathability. It has plenty of vents and pockets. Only drawback that I can find is the chamois. A little short on the thighs, but breaths great and doesn't get annoying after a long ride. Has plenty of padding that extends into the inner thighs not just the crotch area. Definitely worth the discounted price.

CSA: Shipper Challenges and Opportunities
Most industry observers agree that CSA will dramatically affect the motor carrier industry—but what will it mean for shippers? Find out what CSA is designed to do and how it could impact you.
Request a copy today!
April 18, 2011
Most industry observers agree that CSA (Compliance, Safety, and Accountability, formerly known as CSA 2010) will dramatically affect the motor carrier industry in the United States. Its implementation is currently slated to begin in late 2010, with further rules going into effect over the next 12 to 18 months. This white paper looks at what CSA is designed to do, how it differs from the former safety program, and how it could potentially impact carriers and shippers. It's important to note that CSA has not yet been fully implemented. For now, shippers should learn about the proposed rules and consider their options, then be flexible to make the appropriate changes to their supply chains as the final version of CSA goes into effect.
Compliance, Safety, and Accountability (formerly known as CSA 2010, and now referred to simply as CSA) is a Federal Motor Carrier Safety Administration (FMCSA) initiative designed to assess and improve the safety performance of motor carriers and drivers so there are fewer crashes, injuries, and fatalities. Through CSA's new enforcement and compliance model, the FMCSA and its state partners intend to contact a larger number of carriers earlier in order to address safety problems before crashes occur.

can i come hunt on some of your secret spots in arkansas for whitetails?
Have watched over the years. It seem that the nonresident hunter is losing his right and they is no one to stand up for the nonresident hunter.
The Lobbyist, outfitters are make the rules. The rules say they are no tags in this unit for you!! But will let you apply for this (one) only.
But yet, we as nonresident supply a larger % of their annual budget.
Is there an organization that represents the nonresident hunter?
If there is an organization I would be glad to donate, in the interest of the nonresident hunter. As nonresidents we need to buy our own lobbyist that represents the nonresident hunter is the only way changes will be made.
For instants (the old )to hunt the wilderness Wyoming you must use an outfitter.
Also that can not apply for this tag, in most states 10 % in few units.
In most cases those tags are issued are used on federal lands money.
There's a large %of the nonresidents Hunter's out there that would like the opportunity to hunt some of these units. We all want the same thing the chance to hunt.
can i come hunt on some of your secret spots in arkansas for whitetails?
As far as Wyoming is concerned, a non-resident hunter must be with a 'guide' only in areas designated as wilderness. An 'outfitter' and a 'guide' are classified as two separate entities per statute. Basically, any resident with knowledge of the area to be hunted can get a guide license from the local game warden and accompany a non-resident to be within the realm of this rule.
What if you don't know anybody in Wyoming?
I was just pointing out the fact that a non-resident doesn't necessarily have to employ the services of an outfitter, if he/she has some connections, in order to hunt wilderness. If a non-resident doesn't know a resident that has familiarity of the area to be hunted, then yes an outfitter would be required.
This issue is what's got Colorado DOW in a bind. Federal money and NR hunters pay the majority of the revenue for the DOW (I think 65%). However, they have zero say in how the Federal lands are allocated. They are losing NR participation and it's killing their bottom line. However, they will not stand up to the locals.
When it was 60/40 for draw units, I thought that favored the NR's to much. They then went to 80/20 which was to much the other way. The locals scream like gut shot yotes anytime you mention changing it to some thing like 70/30. The point creep is more than 1 point a year for NR. That's why you are seeing more tags being allocated to the landowners in an attempt to get more tags in the hands of NR without changing the to percent allocations.
The Western DOW's need money to operate. The majority of the funding comes from Federal Grants and NR fees. They're going to do whatever it takes to maximize these revenue streams. The residents don't want the NR to have anymore tags so the DOW's get more
tags to the Landowners so they can get them to NR and get the revenue. It's simple economics.
Unfortunately, unless the residents are willing to share a larger percent of the tags with NR, you are going to see more and more tags go to landowners. It follows the money.
The nonresident has no one to represent him. The nonresidents need representation in the legislation and we need lobbyists to do that. There should be some way to organize the nonresidents.
Just think you might spend a couple hundred dollars less and have more opportunities on tags.
And I'm just not talking about Wyoming there are many Eastern states to.
Since there is no organization like this once needs to be started.
Thanks you for my Wyoming bull moose tag, 27 encounters seen 19 bull, had fun and it sure is good eating.

The issue of non-resident hunting opportunities comes up a lot in Alaska. Many residents push for a 10% cap on N-R allocation for all of the main species. We have a 10% cap for some hunts already.
Certainly our tag fees for the non-res are higher than a resident pays, but they are less than in many states that I have looked at. Black bear-$225, Moose-$400, Caribou-$325, Deer-$150.
Alaska requires non-res to be guided for Sheep, Brown/Grizzly and Goat. I have seen several residents push for moose to be a "guide required" animal as well.
What do you all think is reasonable and fair. What does your state allocate for the non-resident?
I seldom hunt out of Alaska except for upland birds. I do buy points in a couple states for the future. I hope to be able to hunt big game in the "lower 48" again someday but I expect to hire a guide or pay a property owner. It's tough to pre-season scout from here!
The only way to increase your chances to hunt, is to continue to support groups like the RMEF, DU, Pheasants Forever, etc... As herds increase, so does your probability of hunting them. Poaching opportunity from the people that make their living in the state really isn't the answer.
My mind is a raging torrent, flooded with rivulets of thought cascading into a waterfall of creative alternatives.
The wilderness area in WY requiring a guide/outfitter is a safety issue to protect the NR Hunter. As far as federal land, yes we all pay federal taxes. Just remember the wildlife belongs to the state. Wyoming is generous to the NR, that is why continue returning every year.
"Only two people have died for You and I, The American Soldier died for Our Freedom & Jesus Christ Died for Our Souls!" I thank GOD for them! GOD BLESS AMERICA!

I have been using zimbra for a couple of years and I want to PAY to be able to upgrade to be able to sync my mac and push email to my palm 700wx.
Here is the problem.
I have only one domain and I only need mail for my wife and myself, so two accounts. I have been running my own servers for years.
Now that zimbra has mac sync and support wm5 push, I am willing to pay for it.
Here is the problem.
I would prefer to get out of the home hosting businees and pay for a couple of mailboxes. But the existing providers are in the two categories.
1. Good prices but minimum users requires - Like 5 or more...
one provider I check wanted 7.95 a box, full features, So @5 boxes, my mrc is $39.75 totalling $477 year
2. Per user, but ala carte for the features.
Two boxes, one with mac sync the other with wm5 sync. $32 a month, 384 a year.
At those prices, I would rather buy a license and go from there..
The problem is that zimbra is sold only in 25 license blocks.
So the network edition is $700 a year.
Now here is the intersting part. For a small business or prosumer user.
Microsoft Small business server is actually cheaper.
New Egg has a OEM 2003 smb server with 5 cals for $450 no annual maintanace.
Trust me I hate Microsoft, but that is a reasonable price.
I really want to run zimbra and have no problem upgrading from my opensource version to a PAYED version.
No matter what, Even if it is a token amount of money, lets say individual mailbox pricing at $35 or $40 a year is more money than nothing.

SkyWatcher AZ-EQ6 GPS Module
Posted 23 December 2012 - 12:44 PM
I received my SkyWatcher GPS module from KSTElescopes yesterday and I connected it to the SynScan. The SynScan initialized, found the GPS unit and after a while the controller asked for the time zone and daylight or standard time. So I assumed it was working properly. Later that day, I went to try it out again. The SynScan went to initializing and never progressed. The instructions say that the initialization process should only take 2 seconds. After about 5 minutes, I shut down the mount, removed the GPS cable from the SynScan and started up the mount. All worked fine.
Today, I took the GPS and SynScan outside. I left the mount inside. I attached the GPS module to the SynScan, applied power, and the controller stuck in the initialization mode. I disconnected the power, disconnected the GPS module, powered the SynScan up and it worked properly.
Is there an issue with the GPS module? Does it need a firmware update? I updated the mount to V3.32.

Posted 23 December 2012 - 05:09 PM
When I first tried mine, it took quite a while for the GPS to get its info. I was doing it inside, so I figured it would take some time plus the manual says the first time would take a while. There is no update for the GPS that I am aware of. Mine came with three different cables. Not sure why. There was one with the RJ-11 and a female mouse connectors. This is the one I used. A second had RJ-11 and male mouse connectors, and a third had a female mouse and USB connectors. Not sure what the second one was for. The third one might be for updating the GPS. Sounds like you might have a defective mouse or cable?
Posted 23 December 2012 - 08:43 PM
Try installing the software that came on a mini CD along with the GPS. See if that can communicate with the GPS module. There is an instruction manual that comes on the CD that explains what all the cables are used for and how to use the software.
Posted 23 December 2012 - 09:35 PM
I installed the software onto my desktop PC and when I try to sync onto the unit, it failed. I will try tomorrow on my laptop as maybe being indoors caused the failure. I did have the GPS module near a window though.

I had the Baud rate set to 4800 and I had the correct COM port picked as well. I will try it again outide today.
Posted 24 December 2012 - 09:27 AM
I can live with it as long as it works with the HC by itself. no need to have it hooked up to the mount as it hold last location entered into it, and HC port could be used for something else when needed..
Posted 24 December 2012 - 09:54 AM
Brian at KWTelescopes is checking to see what the issue may be.
Posted 24 December 2012 - 11:06 AM
maybe try a reset then go outside.. its just a thought!
as I said, with mine it will not work whan hooked up to the mount but does work stand alone with HC.. maybe its a firmware problem in the HC. anybody know if that would be the problem..
Posted 24 December 2012 - 11:14 AM

Hello to those that got here! :)
I'm Jenni Ryder a.k.a. Raven form North Carolina.
I lived in Austria for some years - bad decision - moved back home.
Well, I am a music-addict..That's why I'm playing guitar since I was 5 years old. (I hope this doesn't sound pretentious :D)
I do have many favourite bands but some of my absolute god damn favs are of course Papa Roach, A7X, BFMV, Trivium and Parkway Drive.
To boot I'm a really freaked out person ..so I'm definitely not normal but in a good way :D
Some consider me as childish (I don't think so) but for me nobody should lose his desire to act a little daft sometimes ;)
I don't know what else to tell...just ask if you wanna know more about me :)
And for those who already know me I'm now back from my 'journey' and going to be online frequently.. just if you wanted to know :)
I haven't added this to my profile yet
There is nothing to display yet, check back soon.
There is nothing to display yet, check back soon.
Well,thank you,episodes can change you into. Also if I don't say it so often *laughing*
Just that I back from school and it's fight between stress,music and feelings to be happy for few and angry for back. I still don't get a solution of those problems,hope to find one sooner...
You? :)
Happy New Year in.... late :D
Poet? Well,maybe I try to keep it alive as "real" emotions. Masks are always on,obviously as now. I can be the sweetes or the worst person on the Earth too *laughing* The thing that makes me disappointed is how much people are superficial when they say " Friendship with me"
Concept of friendship is different from one to one,I have mine too.
But if it means just talking on myself or herself/himself, you wronged person. I like also to listen what they have as problems,thoughts and ideas. I'm not mature for be really a person,I'm still 16 and half. It's just the begin of a painful fight between my mind and actions. I still think at what happened 4 nights ago. I wish I didn't wrong again... But if it would be so,I'll try to reflect on and find a solution,if it's possible.
*Laughing* Well,mine mens a change into the person dear. Nothin' in plus, it's always hard to get on,you know? People who are around me go and back and there's who disappears. I really don't know who is really "true" , recently I had to fire many who tries or tried to make me feel an idiot,such if I was the fool of situation. I often ask myself where's the good and the worst in my actions. I had to tear apart the feelings of many, it's the worst thing that I hate to do. Neither if the friendship was a really one; to hear always that she didn't have a problem with me and when I go out of school,somebody told me that she has indeed.
Tell me if it's a joke,useless to say that I was a beast; she avoided me every time I saw her for discuss on and well... I had to write on FB and call her.
Result: " You're arrogant,you always want to have raison if you don't have.... come on I care for you!
You care? Really you do? You're always talking on yourselves and you don't give a shit on me,you don't know what I'm passing this period! You DON'T right?! Every day I see flames through my eyes and you really understand me? NO! You did when I told you about my loss for my teacher? None! And shut up! Shut! I know that you have your problems,I'm sorry for it,but if it was never a really friendship,it's unsense to work on. "
After crying crying,blame herself... I won't go back,I'm like iron.
Plus last night was an heavy one,my drummer is a big mess and I'm doing all for be nea at her. Heart,passion and soul. But I'll talk better about it tomorrow.
It's much what I put down in those moments. Tell me what you think and I'll continue. Happy New Year in plus!!
Music? I discovered and still I am discovering many many bands: The Cure,Three Days Grace,H.I.M. and more stuff about Avenged Sevenfold,but the old. I don't like the new,seems too poppy and I miss the heavy times and rythims. It's business I think.
My relantionship with drummer gives me other time to plunge into really old punk's stuff: The Cure and The Clash. Holy ghybellin,I freakin' love both of those bands; plus Robert Smith is really a great musician. I always say that the best is the past,in the music: 80s,70s,90s.. I didn't get wrong,seems.
I had to change my teacher of guitar after 3 deep years: it was really fucking painful and it leaves me a big hole in my life too. I still miss her and nobody can give me back the feelings that I have with her. She was my 1st mentor,the one who really believes in myself and let me to vent my real myself,out of my mask.

Meeks Cutoff
Meeks Cutoff SynopsisThe year is 1845, the earliest days of the Oregon Trail, and a wagon train of three families has hired mountain man Stephen Meek to guide them over the Cascade Mountains. Claiming to know a short cut, Meek leads the group on an unmarked path across the high plain desert, only to become lost in the dry rock and sage. Over the coming days, the emigrants face the scourges of hunger, thirst and their own lack of faith in one another's instincts for survival. When a Native American wanderer crosses their path, the emigrants are torn between their trust in a guide who has proven himself unreliable and a man who has always been seen as a natural born enemy.

Light and tight
- Familiarity: I've put it through the wringer
These are hand's down the best. <90gms and solid. They have large, sweeping levers that tuck in nicely. Longer levers help make install easy, unlike some super light weight ones that crush your hand :) No brainer - my daily drivers.
Is the rear skewer 130 or 135mm?
Is the rear skewer 130 or 135mm?
They are 135. Salsa recommends chopping off a bit if you use them on a road or cross bike. I have a set on my cross bike (130 spacing) and ran some on my road bike for a while, but haven't bothered to chop them.
Have been using these on lots of different bikes over the years. Bought the red Ti set to add some color to an all black carbon road race rig. Great finish and solid. No complaints, very satisfied. Price here was cheaper than what people on eBay were selling them for. Get some!

Bridge's Future Now in Question
July 18, 2013
It may be that Lee and Krystal Chaklos have gotten in way over their financial heads with the Bellaire Bridge....
The bridge could have been torn down but Horsemeat was not satisfied.
You see, nothing happens in Buttwood without the approval of Idi-Amin Horsemeat-the Boss Hogg of Buttwood.
Horsemeat has no particular qualifications but he does manage to be the "spokesman" and "director" of dozens of departments.
The so-called "independent third party" was nothing of the sort. You see, Horsemeat & Co. have been keeping a $500,000 secret, too. That third party who was going to hold the money was, in fact, in cahoots with Buttwood all the while.
The feds should seize the bridge, hire a contractor, tear it down, use the scrap to repay the bonds and leave Horsemeat slobbering in his Undo's pasta dish, wondering how he missed out on the shakedown of a lifetime.

Well, when you name a card table you bought at a yard sale "KDC Investments" this is what happens. A rousing "Bad job!" to all those who failed to do their due diligence, and I'm sure they know who they are.

While the immigration reform debate in the House of Representatives appears to have come to an impasse—due to the departure of Rep. Raul Labrador from the House committee responsible for drafting reform legislation—the discussion in the Senate seems to be moving along slowly but surely.
Sen. Kelly Ayotte, R-New Hampshire, announced her support for the Senate's bipartisan immigration reform bill on CBS' Face the Nation on Sunday, calling it a "careful, thoughtful, bipartisan solution to a tough problem."
Ayotte became the sixth Republican senator to endorse the bill, bringing the number of senators who support it closer to 60—the number needed to achieve a simple majority and avoid a filibuster from the GOP opposition.
The New Hampshire lawmaker cited mostly economic reasons when explaining why she decided to endorse the reform bill, such as the proposed increase in H-1B visas that would make it easier for the tech industry to fill some of the estimated 600,000 vacant STEM-related jobs; and the provision that would expand the use of E-Verify to all employers over a five-year period.
"Our immigration system is completely broken. … We have a legal immigration system that isn't meeting our needs to grow our economy. I looked at … the E-Verify [system] to make sure we control who's getting a job in this country, and also making sure there's a better legal immigration system bringing the high-tech workers here to make sure we can have the best and the brightest here to grow our economy," she said during her Face the Nation interview.
The Senate is expected to have its initial round of voting on the bill June 11, according to a CNN report. And several more votes on 300 proposed amendments are expected to follow. It's likely the bill will be finalized by the Senate within the coming weeks, then moved to a vote, where it would be likely to pass sometime this summer.
However, Sen. Rand Paul, R-Kentucky, was quoted in the LA Times saying the Senate's reform plan has "zero chance of passing the House."
