Criterion, the makers of the popular video game series Burnout, will be taking the helm for the next installment of Need for Speed in 2010.
Frank Gibeau, president of EA Games, confirmed that development has already been going on for some time. He admitted that the quality of newer NFS games had suffered due to inadequate resources behind them.
Many NFS fans have long felt the game needed a change, will Criterion bring that to the table?

What the heck you mean inadequate RESOURCES? Are you guys trying to say you don't know what you're doing? Or did not have enough resources? Haaaaa that's a good cover-up. NFS will continue failing until FRANK GIBEAU realizes NFS needs to go back to ol school style. For one he can start off with porsche unleashed, 2nd highstakes onto ps3 with shift graphics.
NFS Fan said:
NFS is great, my most favorite game(s). Resources are things such as people or technology like software developers, compilers, graphics developers or enough people to write code. Etc. I am looking forward to the next installment of NFS. I love you guys. If you don't know what a word means get out a dictionary once in a while.

Four-Step Strategy Aims to Put Iron City on Top
Togneri, Chris, Tribune-Review/Pittsburgh Tribune-Review
Tim Hickman leaned against a crate of beer in the Iron City brewery warehouse last week and with a sweep of his hand gestured to the thousands of cases stacked to the rafters.
"Two months ago, this was empty," said Hickman, the new president of the new Iron City Brewing Co. "We could have played a football game in here."
The brewery was bankrupt and unable to pay for ingredients, halting production for five weeks in the fall, he said. Company officials were forced to send letters to regional beer distributors explaining why they could not replenish sold-out supplies of Iron City and its other products, including Iron City Light and Augustiner.
Part of a new ownership group that took over the historic Lawrenceville brewery in September, however, Hickman has settled with creditors, cut costs and re-started beer production.
He also has overseen the development of a marketing strategy that he believes will help the 147-year-old brewery turn a profit for the first time since the turn of the century.
To do so, Hickman said, he must convince the beer-drinking population that Iron City's product has not declined, despite its persistent financial problems.
"The quality of Iron City has not changed. It is and always has been a premium beer," he said. "But the perception of the beer during the bankruptcy deteriorated. The consumer assumed that the quality of the beer was going down."
To convince beer-drinkers otherwise -- and to assure continued profitability and stability -- Iron City will make four major changes:
Upgrade the facility on Liberty Avenue to assure consistent production.
Lila Prezioso, a South Side marketing consultant contracted by the brewery, said market research shows that regional beer drinkers want the brewery to succeed.
"But they don't want to be guilt-tripped into buying the product," she said. "They want a consistent product. They want the price to be stable, and they want to know that it will be in the store."
Iron City expects to produce more than 233,000 barrels of beer in 2008. Last year, the brewery turned out about 172,000 barrels. The 2008 projection would be the most beer brewed at Iron City since 2004.
Stop competing with beer-producing giants.
"We can't compete with them, so we won't try," said Tony Ferraro, vice president of sales and marketing. "We're a regional beer."
That means Iron City will no longer try to match the prices of, say, Budweiser, Miller and Coors. In the next few weeks, drinkers will pay $1 to $1.25 more than they do now more for a case of Iron City, Ferraro said.
In addition, Iron City will launch a new marketing campaign in 2008 tied closely to the celebration of Pittsburgh's 250th birthday. The goal is to promote Iron City as the "beer here," Ferraro said.
Saturate the bar scene.
Iron City struggles to get into many local bars because they use outdated Hoff-Stevens kegs, Ferraro said. Bar owners prefer the more modern Sankey kegs, in part because they are slimmer and can more easily fit under the bar, Ferraro said.
The brewery is investing $1.4 million to replace its 15,000 kegs. The new kegs will be in bars by April, Ferraro said. The goal is to have Iron City flowing in every bar in the region.
Redesign packaging and labels.
That means out with the old -- and "ugly," according to Ferraro - - blue-and-gold Augustiner boxes, cans and bottles, and in with an amber-colored scheme similar to its original design.
In addition, the retro silver-dominated label of Iron City Light will be replaced with a more modern black-and-gold color scheme and design.
One thing that won't change, however, is the "iconic" red and white logo of Iron City beer, Hickman said.
But the label will get a new slogan: "The official beer of the Pittsburgh Nation. …

this product works beyond expected for me. you will know the difference from the hardness, volume, surge and pleasure you get. since it works from the very first dose, you don't even need to take it every day. 2 pills 1 hour before activity is all you need. you need to find the right amount for you. 4 pills is too much for me, 2 pills works wonders. on a scale of 1~10, I rate it 11. :-D BTW , I take Testojack 100, 2 pills a day alongside.
Works for me
Posted by Reviewer2306051 on Sep 27, 2013
For me it does what it's supposed to! It's not Viagra, but it has the best effect yet from pure natural libido enhancer of the many I've tried. It seems to build up a bit of a tolerance though, so I don't recommend it for daily usage for best effects. I've also found sometimes 2 capsules does better job than 4. Haven't figured out yet what affects this.
Very satisfied

The Amazing Race: Kris And Amanda Discuss Being Eliminated First
March 02, 2011 11:30 AM by Allyson Wells
Kris and Amanda had the unfortunate honor of being the first team eliminated on The Amazing Race. The engaged duo were eliminated as a result of a U-Turn in their first season. History repeated itself again in the Unfinished Business season, and the pair could not catch up after having to complete a double U-Turn. The positive pair recently discussed what they think of the U-Turn, what it was like to run into Margie and Luke again, who they hope to win, and their wedding plans.
Question: How did the experience of racing a second time, with all returning teams, compare to your first time on The Amazing Race?
Kris: It was incredible yet a completely different experience this time around. This was everyone's second shot so we were all there to put up a fight to win. Also, many of the teams were our past cast-mates so it was really cool to experience this all over again with some people you consider friends.
Amanda: Well all the teams of Unfinished Business are experienced and very competitive racers. Van Munster even said in previous interviews that one of the number one things he was looking for when casting this season was the most competitive teams. No teams were weak links this season!
Question: The show made it look like it was a pretty close finish between Ron Hsu and Christina Hsu and yourselves at the second Pit Stop. Was that actually the case — do you have any idea about how far behind them you got to the Pit Stop?
Amanda: I was just going to say we were three minutes or we were five minutes, something like that.
Question: What was your reaction when you saw that Margie Adams and Luke Adams, the team that ended your first season when they U-Turn'd you, were one of the other teams that were brought back?
Amanda: It's not like we haven't talked to them since they U-Turn'd us two years ago. We had seen them around at different functions and parties and watching episodes and things, so we definitely are friends with them. But seeing them at the starting line, as well as the other teams from our season, it was surprising how many people they took from our season. We were just lucky and happy that we were one of them, and if anything, it helped us out a little more in a sense that we knew them really well rather than just watching them. So, we really felt like we were going up against people we knew a little bit better than some of the other teams that weren't on our season.
Kris: We were thinking, 'Hey, maybe we can U-Turn them this time.'
Amanda: Oh we were definitely thinking that. I'll admit that.
Question: Out of the 10 other teams that were there, were there any that you were surprised to see?
Kris: We didn't really know what to expect, but it was a surprise to see so many people from our cast, definitely. But it wasn't a shocker like, 'Oh my gosh, I didn't think they'd be on it,' or anything like that. I mean, it was all people that, most of them we've met before too, yeah.
Question: You guys got off to a rough start in Palm Springs and were shown getting pretty stressed out and acknowledging you were clueless about the answer until Kris seemed to have an epiphany that Qantas was the answer. How did you finally get the answer and about how long do you think it took you guys to finish that task?
Kris: You know what, that time frame, it was so muddled that it went by in a flash. You got everybody running around and you're trying to focus on what you need to find, and so I really have no idea how long that took. But I did kind of have an "A-Ha!" moment after everybody had kind of gone away and then I really thought about the clue. I then put the letters together and went, 'Oh my God. It's Qantas.' So, little bit too late though.
Question: What did you think about the fact that the first Pit Stop didn't have a rest period or elimination? Were you frustrated that you ended up being the first team eliminated instead of Jet and Cord, who managed to survive despite getting to the first Pit Stop way behind everyone else?
Kris: It was a bummer. That would have changed the whole game right there if they got sent home then and who knows what would happen. But, we were tired and we'd been traveling for — I mean, literally over a day — running miles and miles and we were hot and sweaty, so to hear Phil say, 'Okay, you guys are still going!' Was like , 'Oh, really?'
Amanda: I actually almost threw up in a bush like five minutes before we checked into Phil, so hearing him tell me that we had to turn around and go all the way back, I wasn't too excited.
Question: Can you discuss the "Natural World" task because a little of it was shown and you were the only team who attempted to do it. Did it take you very long to complete and what did that paint taste like — I'm assuming that must have been some kind of natural, non-toxic paint, right?
Kris: It felt like you were in kindergarten again — eating mud you know?
Amanda: It tasted like dirt. It was actually clay powder and then you added water to make it clay-water, I guess.
Kris: Yeah, you had to get the clay and the water mixed together at the right consistency, so it wasn't like you were just spewing water. It was more like a misty dirt.
Question: About the kangaroo suits, how would you describe that part of the challenge. It was a lot of fun to watch!
Kris: Let's just say I think your spot on the couch was probably more fun than being in that thing! You get so hot! Also, having red clay in your teeth and hopping around a town in a kangaroo suit was just a little embarrassing. All I can say is wow!
Amanda: Oh gosh the suits! That's Amazing Race for you though- they always have at least one challenge every season where they just make the contestants look ridiculous! It was also strenuous though- it was pretty hot out that day and we had to go a ways to get to the next clue, everything always looks so much easier and FASTER on TV! I was actually hoping that there would have to be more tasks after the detour though. There wasn't enough activity after the detour for Kris and I to catch up! We just got in our suits, ran a few blocks to the clue box and then went straight to the pit stop. It was funny to watch! I didn't know until watching it that Margie dropped part of her costume. The clue actually specifically read that you had to check in with all the pieces of your costume. I knew we were in last place but I was hoping that someone dropped or lost part of their costume. Watching Mel hand Margie her costume just made me do more of the "what -if" thinking. I think Kris and I just must be meant to have Unfinished Business!
Question: You guys are in a unique position given the U-Turn has booted you out of the game twice essentially. So what is your general opinion about the U-Turn feature at this point, do you think it's a fair part of the game or do you think it's something that should be done away with?
Amanda: Well you know, it's part of the game and they want to make a TV show out of it. If by throwing in the U-Turn it helps make people change places, as far as the placement they come in and the order, it makes for good TV when someone goes from first to last. So, I don't think it's anything that they're going to get rid of. It is part of the game, so it's fair play. We can't complain.
Kris: We wish it didn't happen of course. If that didn't happen it would have changed the whole thing for us, but it is what it is.
Question: Do you think this season's use of it — where it was something the last team to finish the first task got stuck with — is a fairer approach than your first season, where another team got to decide?
Kris: I liked it better when you had another team decide rather than just right off the bat. Especially for us going into it, that was the one thing that we were looking forward to — was to be able to really play the game — come out and not have to do a U-Turn. But sure enough, right off the bat, we screw ourselves and we start off with a U-Turn. So, it was just a big bummer.
Question: Have you set a date for the wedding yet?
Kris: I proposed to her this July and we got the call asking us to be on this season literally two weeks later. At first, we were starting to make wedding plans but we decided that with having to prepare for the race and working full time we should push it off until 2012.
Amanda: Initially we attempted to plan our wedding and prepare for the race, while both working full time. Let's just say we realized quickly that it would be impossible! Prioritizing, we chose to put the wedding plans on the back burner so that we could focus on the race. We decided to
get married sometime in 2012; this way we can take our time planning and enjoy the ride!
Question: Any other teams you're rooting for? Anyone you're rooting against?
Kris: There is no one I am rooting against but if I were to pick a team that I would like to win I would have to say Gary and Mallory. They are just so down to earth and fun to be around.
Amanda: Kris and I really got to know Gary and Mallory well since we were on the same flight to Sydney with just them and Kisha and Jen. We were also with them on the Ferry to Ocean World and then met up with them again while searching for "To Sail To Stop". We were also rooting for them on Season 17! They're really sweet and honest people with big hearts! We were rooting for them as well as Mike and Mel, our friends from Season 14.
Question: Do you still feel like you have "unfinished business"?
Kris: Well yeah! Lol. Of course I will always wonder what would happen if things played out differently but what an amazing and fun ride both these experiences have been! I just feel so fortunate and lucky to have done this again.
What did you think of Kris and Amanda's comments? I was bummed to see them go first, as they seem to be a fun and positive pair that plays fair. I love that they are rooting for two of my favorite teams: Gary and Mallory and Mike and Mel. We'll have to keep watching The Amazing Race to see if they keep racing.

Valdosta, GA -
Valdosta's mayor John Gayle took part in a national reading campaign this morning at Sallas Mahone Elementary School. The program is called Read for the Record and connects millions of people that come together to read the same book. It's meant to put a spotlight on the importance of literacy. This year the book was called Otis and the mayor read it to a kindergarten class. The event has raised more than eight million dollars for early education programs.
Mayor Gayle said "I just appreciate the job that all these teachers do in trying to teach the kids to read and they need to learn to write too. You know that's one of the things that kids have a hard time doing now a days cause they're always on computers and looking things up but reading is so important."
Last year two point three million people participated in Read for the Record.

I am humbled and inspired by the men and women of the United States military whose service and sacrifice work to preserve freedom and ensure our national security. I believe we must honor their service by providing our soldiers the best medical care possible and securing their hard earned benefits upon returning home. Meeting this vital commitment to veterans here in the 7th Congressional District and across the country remains one of my highest priorities.
I am concerned with a number of pressing issues facing veterans: modernizing the way veteran health care is delivered and benefits are administered to boost access and efficiency; improving mental health, PTSD, and Traumatic Brain Injury, and Spinal Cord Injury care for soldiers and veterans; meeting the unique needs of the growing population of women veterans; and easing veterans transition to life at home by bolstering access to higher education and high quality jobs.
As your Representative I will prioritize the following key issues:
1. Construction of the new VA Medical Center in Aurora.
- This facility will replace Denver's aging VA Hospital with a new stand-alone, state of the art Medical Center that will provide a full range of medical, laboratory, research and counseling services, including care for spinal cord injuries, PTSD, and other disabilities. Construction is underway, and I am committed to the completion of this project which will provide quality comprehensive patient care to hundreds of thousands of veterans in the Rocky Mountain region, as well as thousands of good-paying jobs in our district.
- For the most current information regarding the new VA Hospital in Aurora please visit the Project Eagle web site by clicking here.
2. Accelerate the U.S. Department of Veterans Affairs claims processing times.
3. Ensuring timely access to benefits for veterans is a national responsibility.
- Reducing the back-log of claims can be accomplished by hiring and training additional VA staff and transitioning to all-electronic records to increase efficiency.
4. Improving health care coverage for National Guard and Reserve military members and their families.
5. Supporting national, state and local efforts to address the needs of homeless veterans and their families.
6. Ensure full concurrent receipt of benefits for eligible military retirees who were disabled in service to our country.
7. Ensure adequate training, equipment and rest prior to deployment for troops who are sent into harm's way.
Military Issues
One of the most serious responsibilities I have as a member of Congress is to ensure the national defense. To maintain our military dominance worldwide, I am committed to keeping US forces the most well-trained, well-equipped, well-paid military in the world. Colorado has a strong military presence which is highly integrated into our quality of life and our economy. I work with military and civilian leaders in Colorado and the Pentagon to assess what our current and future threats are, and work with them to responsibly allocate the appropriate resources to meet those needs.
Air and Space
The Air Force is an essential part of our Colorado heritage. With several Air Forces bases in Colorado, I work to provide the resources and tools necessary for these airmen to achieve their mission. This includes investments in strategic space hardware and ground support systems which monitor the world and know instantly of any ballistic missile launches. It also involves providing the resources to help the Colorado National Guard patrol and protect our skies from unknown aerial threats. I also fight to ensure Colorado military bases have the resources to build and improve their facilities to maximize productivity and security.

New exhaust!!!
Well yesterday I went to Kinney's in Fort Worth and got my exhaust done. I went with true duals. He used a dual in and out Flo Pro muffler left the resonators and changed to 5in rolled edge tips. Sounds awesome.
Thanks Kirk!:smileup:
PS if someone could tell me how to post pics I wil be glad to share
i have a photobucket account that i use to upload them and use the links and codes to post them. cant wait to see
could you post a sound clip too?
So when you say 'true duals' you have separate left/right banks from the headers all the way to the tips, right?
grubrunner, the Y pipe was cut out and separate pipes ran in to a dual in dual out Flo Pro muffler and reused my factory tail pipes
FeedMetal, thanks for the info.
I was gonna get that same setup done to my truck. I live right ny kinneys... how much did that setuo run you???
That's basicly what I did with my 05 Ram but I used a magnaflow dual in dual out with X pipe inside, loved it and will most likely do the same with my 13 :smileup:
RAMinator13, it was $595.00 out the door. (special price) because I send him so much business.
Sounds like I need to head up there! Did you notice any performance gain from going with tru duals???

DEVIER, Jeweler,VACCINATION, RE-VACCINATIONUurged as the Only Preventive Against Smallpox and Requests Co-Operation With Health Board. To tho Editor of the Daily News: Sir: In complianco with your request that I give, for publication, Bomo suggestive viows with regard to tho present danger of smallpox and how best to meet it, tho following is submitted, not as individual opinion merely, but as convictions based on data no one can suoessfully contradict. 1st. The only provontive agaiust smallpox is proper vaccination, and re-vaccination. Vaccination in childhood as a rule protects until adult life, re-vaccination thon, and ovory five years thereafter is wise. If not effectual on first trial in childhood, ro-vacoination should be done until successful. 2nd. Varioloid is a modified or mild form of smallpox in ono protected by vacciniation. A caso of varioloid can communicate genuine smallpox to tho unvacciuated, but only varioloid to the vaocinatod; varioloid is not often fatal, and if all were vaccinated could not bo a menace to tho public. No individual properly vaccinated need, therefore, have any personal dread of smallpox. It is tho legitimate duty of every trained mind to lose no favorable opportunity to advise and actively co-operate with the County Board of Health in securing not only now but at all times the vacoination of all in common. 3rd. In like manner at tho present time, tho beBt way to secure tho best protection with least cost to the county is to follow tho advico and actively to co-oporate with our competent Board of Health in doing what it should deem necessay to bo done for the welfare and common interests of the whole county. J. H. NEFF, M. D.Capt. Hobson Resigns. Naval Constructor Richmond P. Hobson, one of tho horoes of the Mer-rimac in the Spanish war, is no longer an officer of the navy, having voluntarily relinquished his connection with that branch of the military sevice. Captain Hobson wrote from Now York, under date of February 5th, to the Seoretay of tho navy: "Department's telegram recommending reconsideration of decision to resign is received. I deeply appreciate tho department's action and its gtfhorous expressions, but my decision is final." Seretary Moody today sent the following to Captain Hobson: ''Sir: The department acknowledges reoeipt of your resignation, tendered January 29, 1903; also your telegram, February 5, 1003, declining to reconsider the same. Your resignation from the United State navy is acceepted, to take effect from this date, February fl. 1903." Now Haven, Conn., Dec. 2«, 1902. Mr. Geo. G.

" fi2.BADLY FRIGHTENED.Mrs. John Begoon, of Goods Mill, in a Serious Condition at Hor Homo. Mrs. John Begoon, who resides near Goods Mill, recolved a fright Wednesday morning which, after a time, caused her to lose consciousness and oven threatened to cost her her life. Sinco the death of her husband a number of years ago she haa lived alono much of tho timo and personally attended to such stook aa it was neces-ssary for hor to koep about tho place. Wednesday morning early she wont out to tho stablo to food and care for tho stock. When she roturned to tho liouso sho was surprised to And both tho front and tho side door standing wido open. On entering tho hall sho heard a noise somowhere inside tho houso which convinced her that a thiof had intruded during her nb-sonco and was still secreted somewhere within hor homo. She at onco fled from tho place and sought refuge at tho homo of her neighbor, Mr. John Good. Hor oxcitomont and fright at tho thought of having been alono in tho houso with a burglar was bo great that aftor communicating to Mr. Good tho cause of hor alarm she beoamo uuconscioua, and it was not until tno lapse of many hours that tho physicians summoned to hor aid were able to rovive hor. Mr. Good went to Mrs. Bogoon's homo as soon as oircumstances would permit and mado a thorough soaroh of the placo. Ho was nnablo, how ever, to find any traco of an intruder. Tho causo of the noises which so torri-fled Mrs. Bogoon romain, thoroforo a mystery. Mrs. Bogoon was removed from Mr. Good's residence to her own homo late Wodnesday ovoning and is being cared for thero by her neighbors and friends. Her condition is still regarded as critical. Sho is considerably advanced in ago "and her torror was bo great Wednesday morning that it is regarded as difficult to foretell •what the result will bo.Entertained Friends. On the evening of the 5th Mr. and Mr. Geo. D. Flory ontortalnod a number of their friends at their rosi-denco noar Froidens Church« Tho ladieB present were, Misses Olie Root, Flora Rodger, Bessie Slusser, Lottio Showalter, Daphne Rhodes, Germio Gangwer, Joy Hulvoy, Alpha Argen-bright. The gentlemen were, Prof. Thoma Rawley Sandy, Messsrs. C. L. Rodgers, Chell Rhodes, "Doo" Hul-vey, George and Will Argenbright, J. Brown Trobaugh. The evening was spent in singing and converation, until 10 o'clock, when supper was announced and all wended their way to tho dinning room, where toothsome dainties wero served in tho most dainty mannor. Miss Minnio assisted her sister, Mrs. Flory, in recoiving tho guests. Mrs. Flory is a charming liostoss, and to say that Mr. Flory knows how to mako you feel easy and at homo is putting it vory mildly. All enjoyed themselves hugely and expressed the wish that such a gathering might bo repeated in the near future. February Gth, 1903. W. D. J.Immune From Smallpox. Wlion Drs.. Jones, Brewer and Fahrney uiado an examination yesterday of the smallpox situation at Mo-chanicsville they found thoro ten per-ons ill with the disease. Most of them belonged to one family. Ono whole family, with the exception of the father, was stricken with the di-seaso. Tho father had been vaccinated and ho therefore, proved exempt. A strict quarantine was directed of all persons suffering from tho disease, and it was further ordwed that all others who had come in contact with it should be quarantined unless they had been properly vaccinatcd or else would be vacoinated at onco. We are glad to be advised from there that tho people of tho infected locality are, aa a rule, availing themelves of the service of their local phyicians to be promptly vaccinated. It has been our aim to make our new line of Wash Dress Fabrics notable both in selectness and comprehensiveness. Comprehensivo, in embracing in the largest variety all the popular branda, and select in offering only the choicest productions of textures that the market affords. We would liko to have you call and examine thom while the assortment is complete. W. A. MESEROLE & BRO. HOY/ ABOUT IT ?The Question as to Tolephono Rates Discussed. That tho tolpliono system of tho town is a monopoly, dominated by ono or two individuals, is tho belief of perhaps nino-tenths of the 'phono holdors of tho town and county. Wo never hoard of a moting of any company of stockholders or board of directors to regulato charges for 'phono sorvlco, oxtonsion of sytem or other important matters partaining to it. Without any notice in advance rates aro increased 50 per emit., not by ordor of a board of directors, but by W. O. Switzor, managor. That notico, issued and sent out on tho 3d, was to roach back nnd bo in effect from tho 1st. If wo submit now to have our hands tied and tho yoke put upon our nei-kf), what may wo expeot in tho future? Lexington, Staunton and Winohoster rates are sot bofore us as tho standard, tho maximum being $21 and $30 a 'phono. Submit now, and you will soon have that rnto. One man may own and ninnago tho 'phone system of our town, but can ho dominato absolutoly its patrons? Wo think uot. Lot 'phono holdors, both residence and business, stand together as ono man, and if Mr. Switzor can show by bis books to a committee to bo appointed by us, that tho old ratos are not adequate to maintain tho systom and pay interest on tho capital invested, then wo aro willing to moot him in tho spirit of houost fair dealing and pay such rates as will bo just to him and fair to us. If Mr. Switzor will not do this, thou let all phono holdors discontinuo thoir 'phones at a given time, say Fobruary lfifch. 'Phones are a con-vonionco as woll as a luxury, but thoy aro not an absoluto neoessity. Bo-sides, if wo withdraw our united support from this monopoly it won't bo long till a way will open for connection with county linos by other means than Mr. Switzer's system, whoso sorvlco with county linos has not boon first-class in tho past. JUSTICE. Hon. Geo. E, Sipe arrived here Thursday from Richmond for a few days' visit.From the Wandcror^. Alloghany, Pa,. Fob. 5.—It Booms a long timo since our friends in old Rockingham liavo had any nowa of hor boys in this oity through the columns of tho Nows, our ever-wolcomo visitor.

Air conditioners greatly improve the comfort level in a home, especially during scorching summer days. With many options on the market, you can find the right type of air conditioner to suit your needs, and the information below will help you pick one to cool a single room or your entire home. Find out what kind of air conditioner is best for your space before you begin to shop.
Most new air conditioners are built to run more efficiently than older models. These new units can help you save on your energy bill.
There are many different types of air conditioners available that suit various spaces. A mini-split wall-mounted unit can cool several rooms, or a portable air conditioner is perfect for a small space.
New air conditioners include convenient features. Some units have improved air filtration or alert you when it's time to change the filter, and some have timers so you can schedule when they run.
Portable air conditioners are mounted in the window and can cool a single room or the entire floor of a home, depending on the home's layout and the air conditioner's power.
Portable air conditioners are best for...
Apartments and other rental spaces: If you rent your home, you may be unable to undertake a major renovation like adding a central air system. A portable air conditioner allows you to cool a rental without damaging or modifying the space.
Allergy sufferers: Mold, mildew and dust mites thrive in overly humid environments. Portable air conditioners help remove moisture from the air, limiting the growth of allergens and relieving allergy woes.
Hot rooms: A portable air conditioner can cool down a single room that has higher temperatures than the rest of the house, like a room that gets a lot of sun or has many running appliances.
These units are mounted in the window and can cool a single room or the entire floor of a home, depending on the home's layout and the air conditioner's power.
Window air conditioners are best for...
Affordable cooling: Window air conditioners are relatively inexpensive to buy, install and maintain. If you want to cool your home while keeping to a budget, a window air conditioner is the best option.
Those who prefer low-maintenance appliances: With other types of air conditioners, you may have to clean ducts or drain water containers. Window air conditioners simply require changing the filter about once a month and sweeping any dirt inside of the unit.
Rental spaces: Because window air conditioners can simply be placed in most windows without modifications to the frame, they're a good option for adding cooling options without modifying rental spaces.
These air conditioners are built into the wall and provide ample cooling power without taking up window space. Some wall-mounted models use a mini-split installation while others are through-the-wall units.
Wall air conditioners are best for...
Homeowners: Installing a wall air conditioner takes some minor renovation work, like removing part of the wall, cutting out studs and securing brackets to the outside of the home. Since many rentals do not allow these kinds of alterations, these air conditioners are best for those who own their home or apartment.
Older homes: Some older homes would require the addition of significant ductwork to accommodate new central air conditioners. With wall air conditioners using mini-split or through-the-wall installations, no extra ducts are needed.
Maintaining window views: Wall-mounted air conditioners offer an alternative to window models that can block the view and reduce the amount of light coming through a window.
Home air conditioners come in a variety of styles and can fulfill practically any cooling need. Consider the size of your home, the area you want to cool and your price range before making a purchase. If you own your home, a wall-mounted air conditioner will save space and cool a large area. Renters may want a portable or window-mounted model depending on their preferences. It's important to choose the right air conditioner for your needs. A model with too little power won't effectively cool a room, and a unit that's over powered compared to its space will waste energy and cost more to run. Choose the right model to find an air conditioner that's truly tailored to your home and stay comfortable during warm weather.

Flor De Maria
Update on Flor De MariaFlor, a humble 50-year-old woman, is a Kiva borrower who is a businesswoman. She works selling food and groceries. She is very grateful because her first loan was very helpful. It came to her in the moment she needed it most because she was able to invest more in her business, buying products that her customers want the most, like soup, juice, detergent, rice, sugar, oil, corn, and vegetables. She is very happy because she has been able to increase her sales and get better profits. She is why she needs a second loan: to continue expanding her business, buying products that she doesn't already carry, like sardines, beer, crackers, soda, and canned goods like tuna. One of her goals is to keep expanding her grocery store and improve her family's quality of life.
Una de sus metas es seguir creciendo en su pulpería y mejorar la calidad de vida de su familia.

Additional Information
Concurrent and Successive Loans
Our Field Partners often work with borrowers over a series of loans as the borrowers build credit, take out bigger loans, and expand their businesses. In order to make it easier for our Field Partners to post loans for borrowers who have been listed on Kiva before, we allow them to post successive and concurrent loans for their Kiva borrowers. This means that our Field Partners are able to post a borrower's second, third, etc., loan on Kiva without having to re-enter all of the borrower's information.
This borrower has been listed on Kiva before, so you'll see an updated loan description, as well as excerpts of the original descriptions from earlier loans. Most borrowers take out loans consecutively, meaning that they receive a second loan after having repaid the first. However, sometimes our Field Partners give out concurrent loans, allowing borrowers to take out one primary loan and a secondary "add-on" loan along with it. These "add-on" loans are typically smaller than the borrower's primary loan and serve a different purpose. Because Field Partners can now post loans as successive and concurrent loans, you will be able to track borrower progress over time and see the various ways a borrower is working with our Field Partners through funds from Kiva's lenders.

From behind the camera to in front of it, all for the love of cinema. Indian directors are increasingly donning the greasepaint and taking on roles for a friend's film or just to satisfy that creative urge - mostly to great success.
Multi-tasking is in. And how. Tigmanshu Dhulia of "Paan Singh Tomar" fame made a successful debut as an actor in Anurag Kashyap's hit two-part saga "Gangs of Wasseypur". Anurag, in turn, played the sexually abusive stepfather in Onir's critically acclaimed "I Am".
Writer-director Amol Gupte stepped in front of the camera for Vishal Bharadwaj's "Kaminey", most effective as the menacing villain, and Farah Khan did so too with the main role in the romcom "Shirin Farhad Ki Toh Nikal Padi".
Not to forget Farhan Akhtar who turned actor with National Award winning film "Rock On!!" after directing hits "Dil Chahta Hai" and "Don - The Chase Begins Again" and hasn't looked back since.
From playing side roles to lead characters, they are doing it all.
In Tigmanshu's view, the awareness about the nuances of acting makes directors a better option.
"If a director feels that another director suits a character, then why not? Even though as a director, you don't act, but you are aware of how it is done. So obviously it becomes easier for you. It is better than taking a newcomer who is completely unaware of how it's done," Tigmanshu told IANS.
Not many know that Tigmanshu trained as an actor at the National School of Drama (NSD) and returned to acting almost after 20 years.
"I specialised in acting. I was acting after 20 years; so that was a little difficult. But I was under no pressure," he said.
That Anurag was a friend helped. "I was very comfortable with Anurag. He is a good friend of mine."
Farah, director of hits like "Main Hoon Na" and "Om Shanti Om", says she enjoyed her acting stint in Bela Sehgal's film.
"At first, I thought both Sanjay Leela Bhansali and Bela were pulling my leg, and the moment I would say yes, they would come out with their joke. I thought they had approached me to choreograph a song. I never thought in my weirdest dreams that they would offer me a role."
But it was a reality and what fascinated Farah was the script as she was able to relate to certain parts of the film.
"As the film was being produced by Sanjay, I was sure that it would be aesthetically done instead of being a tacky, cheap film. It also happens to be Bela's passion project. So I thought let's give it a shot; who gets a chance such as this otherwise? It's still surreal for me," said Farah.
While Farah and Tigmanshu clearly enjoyed their acting stint, Anurag has a different story to tell.
"The films I acted in happened a long time ago. I only take up acting when I feel I can do the part. I have been an actor and I was fascinated with acting but not any more. I am better at making films than acting, but still there are a lot of things to learn," he said.
In the past too directors like Nagesh Kukunoor tried their hand at acting. He was seen in his directorial debut "Hyderabad Blues" and Sudhir Mishra acted in "Traffic Signal" and "Raat Gayi Baat Gayi".
For some, the acting bug has bitten in earnest.
Farhan, who has been acting in many films, will be seen next in the title role in "Bhag Milkha Bhag" and will romance Vidya Balan in "Shaadi Ke Side Effects", a sequel to "Pyaar Ke Side Effects"
Prawal Raman's "404" saw Nishikant Kamat, who directed "Force", showing his acting skills. He will be acting in Rohit Jugraj's next film.

Hey, Crimson!
Cool story! I enjoyed the plot and how it takes place in the future. Apart from simple grammatical and spelling errors, it really was a great story which flowed smoothly.
Maybe you could add more detail to spice it up a bit and make it more interesting? Maybe around the battle scene? If not, that's fine. It's still good!
Also, how are you planning on continuing the story?
Great job!
