KLM Royal Dutch Airlines, Boeing 777-200ER, returning home.
Arriving in Istanbul was less chaotic than I had anticipated. The flight arrived about 30 minutes early, which allowed me adequate time to get my visa, go through immigration, pick up my luggage, hit the ATM to get money and then find my airport taxi to my hotel. In all the process took about 40 minutes, which is not bad at all. Once known as Byzantium and Constantinople, Istanbul has had a very long and colorful history. First known as Byzantium in 667 BC, the city-state of Megara was named after their king Byzas. In 330, after the Roman emperor Constantine the Great made the city the new eastern capital of the Roman Empire on 11-may-330, the city became widely known as Constantinople and on 28-march-1930, as part of the Turkish Postal Law, the city was officially named Istanbul. The city is home to over 12 million people, which puts it currently at the 4th largest city in the world. Though it is not a city in the same sense of modern cities. However, the people here are really quite friendly and welcoming. Though they can be a bit abrasive when it comes to selling their carpets and other wares -- I was methodically lectured in agonizing detail about every nuance of carpet making, for which I have about as much interest as a mouse has for being interviewed by a cat.
The Hagia Sophia at Night
The Hagia Sophia at Night
The first two days were completely miserable, weather wise. It was cold, it was rainy. However, with the right materials (coat & umbrella) it was time to set out on my quest. Sunday I walked all around the city and eventually got myself lost. We're not talking a little lost, we're talking lost-lost. It took me over an hour just to find my way. But I saw some interesting parts of the city to say the least. Monday I ended up at Topkapi Palace, which is now a museum, which for 400 years of their 600-year reign was the official and primary residence of the Ottoman Sultans. The initial construction began in 1459, which was ordered by the Sultan Mehmed II who conquered the Byzantine city of Constantinople. The palace is a complex made up of four main courtyards and many smaller buildings. At the height of its existence it was the home to as many as 4,000 people. After visiting the palace, I wandered down to the Grand Bazaar which is one of the largest and oldest covered markets in the world, with more than 58 covered streets and over 1,200 shops; selling everything from spices, jewelry, pottery, carpets, tacky tourist souvenirs, pottery, children s toys, clothes, etc. The Grand Bazaar opened officially in 1461 and was vastly enlarged in the 16th century and then in 1894 underwent major restoration after an earthquake damaged most of it. It is definitely a spectacle to see and wandered around for about 8-hours over the course of two days.

There is an ever growing number of people eagerly awaiting the news of an Apple HDTV release. The Apple TV set, we believe, is the product that Apple is working on to help them in the process of taking over the worlds living rooms. Though there are many who doubt that Apple will ever make this leap, Apple fans, and investors alike, are following this story with great interest. Thanks to the folks over at CNN NEWS, we were able to get some information found in a note to clients, Morgan Stanley's Katy Huberty, issued Tuesday about what she calls "iTV." Note the difference between an iTV (a TV set) and an Apple TV (current set-top box).
The Wall Street Journal reports that Apple it testing several TV-set designs. According to WSJ, "officials at some of Apple's suppliers" said the company has been working on testing a few designs for a "large-screen high-resolution TV":
It is a well known fact that Apple integrated some form of Bluetooth in its Apple TV 2 and its Apple TV 3. For those of you who have jailbroken your Apple TV, you may have already played around with this functionality using some of the tools in nitoTV or other Apple TV hacks. Well, it is now Apples turn. As of the latest beta builds, being released for these little black boxes, 9to5Mac revealed that there have been reports of Bluetooth functionality being enabled, by Apple! So, what could this mean? What is Apples plan? Is this a "game" changer? Needless to say, officially enabling Bluetooth is a fairly BIG DEAL either way.
The Apple TV 3 jailbreak isn't out yet, but FireCore, the maker of Seas0nPass jailbreaking tool for Apple TV, has just shared some info on the status of this jailbreak:
Rumors have been swirling for nigh on a year now about what would come to pass when Apple finally delivers its television. Not that the Apple TV is any slouch mind you, but visions of a fully integrated Apple HDTV have had experts and fanboys alike drooling. News about a possible release schedule and what could be expected of this hardware has been slow to nonexistent in recent months leaving many people filling that informational void with speculation. One particularly juicy daydream was just delivered by our friend over at The Verge and we simply had to pass it on. So here is one die-hard's dream of the perfect Apple TV.
Tech bloggers, including ourselves, have been buzzing hard about the hush development of an Apple television set for quite some time now. While the Apple TV set top box has been quite successful, it still requires a non-Apple piece of hardware to operate. Well, according to some whispers overheard on Barrons, those days may be drawing to a close.

Ten Crises
ISBN13:by Montiel; Peter
Nonspecific Binding
Questions About This Book?
What version or edition is this?
This is the 1st edition with a publication date of 10/25/2013.
What is included with this book?
- The New copy of this book will include any supplemental materials advertised. Please check the title of the book to determine if it should include any CDs, lab manuals, study guides, etc.
Although the financial crisis of 2008 and after appeared in many ways to have sprung from nowhere, its genesis possessed strong antecedents. In this book, Peter Montiel analyzes ten case studies of crises that have occurred in a diverse set of countries (including industrial, transition and emerging-market economies) over the past thirty years. The examination of these experiences is conducted within a common analytical framework guided by the three "generations" of crisis models that have been developed by economists to explain currency crises. The crises are "financial" in the sense that, while they are all considered major currency crises, they combine to varying degrees elements of banking crises as well as sovereign debt crises. They have been selected not only for their importance in terms of the size and prominence of the countries involved and the severity of their impacts on the relevant economies, but also because of the lessons that, both individually and in comparison to each other, they provide. The specific crises covered are the 1981-82 Chilean crisis, the 1992 ERM crisis, the 1994 Mexican crisis, the 1997 Asian crisis, the 1998 Russian crisis, the 1999 Brazilian crisis, the 1999 Ecuadorean crisis, the 2000 Turkish crisis, the 2001-02 Argentine crisis, and the 2009 Icelandic crisis. The historical timeline presented provides essential pointers to the world's current predicament.

Social Impact Bonds (SIB), also known as "pay for success" loans, are a novel form of financing social service interventions, including education initiatives. First piloted six years ago in the United Kingdom and now making their way to the United States, SIBs aim to leverage private funding to start new programs or scale proven ones. Broadly speaking, the instrument works like this: Private lenders and philanthropists deliver dollars—the bond—to a nonprofit provider that, in turn, implements the intervention. A government agency pays back the bond principal with interest, but only if the program achieves pre-specified results.
In its ideal form, an SIB has the potential to be a triple win: Governments receive risk-free funding to test or expand social programs that could help them save money; investors reap a financial return if the program works; and providers gain access to new sources of funding. To ensure that the deal will benefit all parties, due diligence occurs on the front end, including selecting a program provider, estimating government savings, and developing an evaluation method.
To date, the discussion on SIBs has been largely conceptual, engaging both supporters and skeptics alike. But a fascinating new report written by MDRC President Gordon Berlin provides a first-hand...
In recent years, a few early childhood advocates have blasted the Common Core State Standards for their "harmful" effects on kindergarteners, particularly in reading. While a careful examination of the standards reveals this claim to be overstated—and overheated—the notion that we are killing kindergarten was gaining traction long before Common Core came onto the scene. Until now, this narrative has been informed largely by anecdotal evidence, idealism, and good old-fashioned nostalgia. Noting that "surprisingly little empirical evidence" has been gathered on the changing nature of kindergarten classrooms, this paper attempts to fill the void by comparing kindergarten and first-grade classrooms in 1998 and 2010—capturing the changes in teachers' perceptions of kindergarten over time.
Using the Early Childhood Longitudinal Study, researchers compared survey response data from public school kindergarten teachers in 1998 and 2010 to investigate changes across five dimensions: teachers' beliefs about school readiness, curricular focus and use of time, classroom materials, pedagogical approach, and assessment practices.
Overall, researchers found that kindergarten has indeed become more like first grade. When asked to rate the importance of thirteen school readiness skills, 2010 teachers tended to rate all of them as more important than their 1998 counterparts had. This was true for academic skills (identifying letters,...
A recent study released by NCES compares the competencies and skill levels of U.S. adults to their counterparts in foreign countries. The study relies heavily on the Program for the International Assessment of Adult Competencies (PIAAC), which tests three "domains": literacy, numeracy, and problem solving.
Researchers looked at data from 2012 and 2014 on a representative sample of 8,670 U.S. households—including PIAAC test scores, educational attainment, employment status, and more. They split the sample into three subgroups: unemployed adults (ages 16–65), employed young adults (ages 16–34), and employed older adults (ages 66–74).
Analysts found that, compared to people in other participating countries, U.S. adults between the ages of 16 and 65 have lower average PIAAC scale scores in numeracy and problem solving. American young people are less ready for college and career, and larger percentages of them scored in PIAAC's lowest level in literacy, numeracy, and problem solving.
Moreover, compared to the international average, U.S. students who graduate high school typically only possess reading, math, and problem solving skills needed to complete brief and simple tasks in the workplace. And 69 percent of unemployed young adults in the United States scored at PIAAC's lowest level in problem solving. That's far...
Allow me to let you in on a little secret from deep inside the nation's policy making machinery: Policy elites view the rise of Donald Trump—the candidate and everything he stands for—with equal parts alarm and revulsion. That's probably not much of a secret. A campaign that draws its oxygen from anti-elite sentiments probably doesn't expect much attention or affection from think tanks and serious people in education reform. Not surprisingly, there hasn't been much.
But it's well past time to start thinking seriously about education reform in the Trump era. Even if 1600 Pennsylvania Avenue becomes the one piece of real estate destined never to be festooned with the candidate's surname, the restive 2016 campaign should serve as a wake-up call. Broad swaths of Americans feel disconnected from public institutions and are convinced that policy makers don't understand or much care about them.
Education policy has done little to bridge that divide. When downwardly mobile white, working-class Americans hear us talking about education reform, it's a fair bet they don't think we're talking about them and their children. And they're not mistaken. The priorities and language of reformers—achievement gaps, no-excuses schools, social justice, and the "civil rights issue of our...
Policy wonks and political prognosticators have begun to forecast the collateral damage that is apt to follow if Donald Trump manages—in spite of himself, and notwithstanding his Wisconsin setback—to win the Republican nomination, damaging not only GOP prospects for retrieving the White House but also the party's odds of prevailing in innumerable races for Congress and for state (and even local) leadership. Following in the wake of those generally dire prognostications are early conjectures about the policy shifts that may ensue in sundry realms both international and domestic if Democrats are positioned to chart the future course.
For education reformers parsing this prospect, it's useful first to recall the many worthy changes that followed the GOP's 2010 sweep of a galaxy of state and federal offices (obviously omitting the one that's ovular). Though nothing in the list below is (from my perspective) perfect, it's hard to picture many—perhaps any—of these things happening had Republicans not been in positions of influence:
How often have you heard, "Gifted students will do fine on their own?" This is just one of the many myths that become barriers to properly educating millions of high-potential students. The following is a list of the most prevalent myths in gifted education, accompanied by evidence rebutting each of them. (For a student's perspective, watch The Top 10 Myths in Gifted Education, produced by teens in the Baltimore County Public Schools for the Maryland State Department of Education.)
Myth 1: Gifted students don't need help; they'll do fine on their own
Would you send a star athlete to train for the Olympics without a coach? Gifted students need guidance from well-trained teachers who challenge and support them in order to fully develop their abilities. Many gifted students may be so far ahead of their same-age peers that they know more than half of the grade-level curriculum before the school year begins. Their resulting boredom and frustration can lead to low achievement, despondency, or unhealthy work habits. The role of the teacher is crucial for spotting and nurturing talents in school.
Myth 2: Teachers challenge all the students, so gifted kids will be fine in the regular classroom
Although teachers...
It should be great news: Graduation rates for Minnesota's black and Hispanic students—which have long lagged the rate for white students—are on the rise.
But how much do these new graduates actually know? What skills have they mastered? In other words, what is their high school diploma really worth?
MinnPost.com recently profiled a new "Spanish Heritage" program at Roosevelt High School that Principal Michael Bradley credits with helping to boost the school's Hispanic graduation rate by about fifteen percentage points in 2015. The program features "culturally relevant pedagogy" and focuses on developing Hispanic students' sense of "cultural identity."
What precisely do students learn in the Spanish Heritage program? The article explained that students "see themselves in the curriculum," "find their voice," and "become their own advocates." But it says little about whether they acquire the knowledge and skills necessary to become well-informed, productive citizens.
Why is this important? In searching the Minnesota Department of Education's website, I discovered a disconcerting fact: Though Roosevelt's Hispanic graduation rate increased to almost 75 percent in 2015, only 6 percent of the school's Hispanic students were proficient in reading and only 10 percent in math, as measured by state tests.
MinnPost's profile concluded with ...
As a parent of three young children in Chicago Public Schools, I'm starting to get nervous.
Luckily, my family can afford to live in a neighborhood with one of the city's few higher-performing elementary schools that aren't governed by selective enrollment. But in the upper grades, even Chicago's best neighborhoods have almost no high-quality options unless you can afford a private school.
So we've begun the effort to get our kids tested to see if they can be among the lucky few to gain entry into Chicago's selective enrollment schools. Because the system is point-based, families strategize on how to get their kids into these coveted programs. Parents in the know find tutorials online. Some even spend hundreds of dollars for test preparation.
Recently, as I sat in a testing center waiting for my son to finish his exam, I looked around and saw a lot of affluent parents like me. I wondered, what about the children without parents to advocate for them? What about those families without social capital or financial means—do they even know these gifted programs exist?
Gifted schools and programs are supposed to be for all students with unique abilities, but as I sat in the...
Despite the continued controversy surrounding Common Core, the vast majority of states that originally adopted the standards have chosen to stick with them. But the same can't be said of several new standards-aligned assessments.
Developed by two state consortia, the Partnership for Assessment of Readiness for College and Careers (PARCC) and the Smarter Balanced Assessment Consortium, these new tests offered member states shared ownership over common assessments, significant cost savings, and the ability to compare student performance across states. Despite this initial promise, however, membership in PARCC (and, to a lesser degree, Smarter Balanced) has been dwindling for some time now. But is this attrition due to the quality of the tests, as some claim?
To inform states about the quality and content of PARCC and Smarter Balanced, Fordham conducted the first comprehensive evaluation of three "next-generation" tests this past summer, recruiting reviewers who examined operational test items from PARCC, Smarter Balanced, and ACT Aspire. We also evaluated one highly regarded existing state test, the Massachusetts Comprehensive Assessment System (MCAS). Our team of rock star reviewers, comprising educators and experts on content and assessment, judged these tests against benchmarks based on the Council of Chief State School Officers' (CCSSO's) "...
Even a careful observer of education policy could wonder, "Who's actually in charge of public schooling?" That is, at which level of government does the buck stop?
The long shadow cast by NCLB and all of the attention paid to ESSA might convince you that the feds are in control. We also know from experience, though, that local school boards and superintendents make the lion's share of key decisions. And aren't state departments and boards of education also important?
It gets even more confusing when there are public disagreements between these different government entities. States and districts routinely quarrel about funding levels. There's a battle now in Illinois about local and state oversight of charters. In Michigan, there's a clash over a new state body that could exert control over Detroit's schools. Uncle Sam infamously got involved in Common Core, which raised state and local hackles galore. Thanks to Pierce, there are also the constitutional rights of parents limiting the authority of all levels of government. The list goes on and on.
The simple (if messy) answer to the basic question of who's in charge is this: no one and everyone. Like much else in our constitutional system, powers are distributed in a layer-cake or marble-cake...

2008 Power Tour Behind the Scenes - Before the Big DayWritten by on June 7, 2008 HOT ROD Editor-in-Chief Jerry Pitt shows you what's going on the day before the 2008 Power Tour begins.
There's no doubt I pinch myself every time I head out the door for Power Tour(r). I mean, is this really work?
I get to meet all the greatest car people in the world, and when I left for Little Rock on Tuesday, June 3 (I think it was June 3rd...), I knew that this year would be no exception.
So rather than give you all the sordid details of no sleep, early morning promotional efforts, and having to make sure Kinnan has finished releasing the September issue, I'll go straight to the photos. Embarrassment for all involved is expected and anticipated.

No embarrassment here, many thanks to Diana McClung of the Angela Rogers Group and Carol Dolan of the Little Rock Convention and Visitors Bureau who were my hostesses, chauffeurs, and proof that the South will always be the most hospitable place on the planet.But I also love Bill Holt's car as well. Both were at the press conference on Wednesday announcing the Friday night Cruisapalooza and the kick off of the HOT ROD Power Tour.Gwatney Chevrolet served as our point of pickup for the three vehicles that the HOT ROD staff will cover the event from.

The Nutcracker: English National Ballet (ENB)
Journey back in time with English National Ballet to a frost-covered, gas-lit world and join Clara, her Nutcracker doll and the magician Drosselmeyer in this traditional, festive tale for all the family.
In a world of Edwardian elegance, The Nutcracker brings to life the eternally popular Tchaikovsky score featuring the Dance of the Sugar Plum Fairy and the Waltz of the Flowers.
On an enchanted Christmas Eve, under the heavy boughs of the candlelit tree Clara battles with the Mouse King and falls in love with a handsome prince. As the air grows colder and snowflakes begin to fall, Clara and her valiant Nutcracker take a hot air balloon ride across the frost-dusted London skyline to the glistening Land of Snow where her adventure really begins.
This classical production is a magical, memorable and unmissable Christmas treat.
Please note that no under 5s will be admitted to this event.
English National Ballet (ENB)
English National Ballet is one of the world's great ballet companies. The original 1950s vision for the Company - to take classical ballet of the highest quality to the widest geographical audience, at a price everyone can afford - remains the cornerstone of the Company's philosophy today.

Unit 28 hosts Blessing of the Animals and Easter Egg Hunt
A beautiful day brought a large crowd to the American Legion Auxiliary Unit 28's Blessing of the Animals and Easter Egg Hunt. More than 25 animals, among them a rabbit, were blessed by Pastor Judith Moller-Gavlick of the Grace of God Lutheran Church. Moller-Gavlick also provided crosses for the animals' collars.
More than 50 youngsters ages 2-12 scattered for plastic filled eggs in each of three baskets supplied by the auxiliary, as well as gift certificates.
Shown with Easter treasures are in back (l-r) Zoe Downey; Jackie Rooney, Auxiliary Children and Youth chair; and R.J. Clark. In front are K.J. Gibbs, Brian Alfonso, Ian Hicks and James McGovern.

The city of Seattle has agreed to pay $812,250 to settle a race-discrimination and harassment case brought by a former City Light employee.
The city of Seattle has agreed to pay $812,250 to settle a race-discrimination and harassment case brought by a former City Light employee.
The settlement was revised from $503,000, the amount a jury awarded the employee, Mattie Bailey, after a six-week trial in 2007. Bailey argued she'd been underpaid since the mid-1990s.
The city appealed the 2007 verdict. Higher courts subsequently upheld the harassment verdict but threw out the damage award because the statute of limitations had expired. The state courts overturned the pay claim after a U.S. Supreme Court decision that held, under federal law, that the statute of limitations begins to run when the first paycheck is issued, rather than when the plaintiff learns she is being underpaid.

The case was sent back to Superior Court, but the settlement was announced Thursday before the case went to trial, according to Bailey's attorney, Jack Sheridan. About $300,000 of the new amount will go to legal fees, Sheridan said.
Jean Boler, an assistant city attorney, said the city decided to settle the case to avoid incurring additional legal costs.
Bailey, who is African American, worked for City Light from 1981 until her retirement in 2008. She was a manager and head of City Light's communication division until City Light hired Gary Zarker as director. Zarker reorganized Bailey's division, took away her responsibilities and gave them to white employees, Sheridan said.
Bailey was removed from most of her managerial duties and given clerical work, Sheridan said, and she suffered racially motivated comments from her superiors.
The jury found Bailey endured workplace hostility because of her race and was not paid equitably for her work.
The jury verdict found City Light discriminated against her and another long-term employee, Phi Trinh, a hydroelectric-power supervisor. The city paid Trinh more than $1 million in 2007.
Bailey's 2007 jury award marked the fifth time in a decade City Light had either settled or lost a racial-discrimination case.
"Mattie was a great manager," Sheridan said, "and the city wasted her as a resource because it allowed the good old boys to run the utility instead of awarding jobs on merit."
Bailey now teaches civil-rights classes at Central Seattle Community College.

Who Donates Better Blood for You Than You?
Thompson, Richard C., FDA Consumer
The AIDS epidemic that first appeared in the United States in the late 1970s has had a great many consequences, few of them positive. But one favorable result has been increased use of a transfusion procedure by which persons facing elective surgery can donate their own blood to themselves before that surgery.
The procedure is called autologous (awtol-o-gus), meaning "related to self," donation. It is based on the fact that receiving your own blood during and after surgery is better and safer than receiving someone else's blood. (Blood intended for use by someone other than the donor is known as "homologous.")
Volunteer blood donations in the United States are now tested for the presence of such contaminants as the AIDS virus. Where these are found, the blood is discarded. This makes the risk of transmitting the virus through a transfusion almost nonexistent. Nonetheless, there are advantages to donating one's own blood for later use.
These include: * reduced risk of a transfusion reaction, * more rapid replacement by your body of blood lost during surgery, since the bone marrow where blood cells form has already been activated by the process of donating blood, and * less demand on the community blood supply.
When autologous donation is suggested, the patient's physician will make arrangements with the local blood bank. It's likely that iron supplements will be prescribed to help build up the number of red blood cells to avoid anemia.
In autologous donation, a person can give one unit of blood a week for up to six weeks, depending on the anticipated need. Each unit is just under a pint and is about 10 percent of the body's total blood supply.
As the blood is taken, it is labeled for that patient's use and kept ready at the hospital for the operation. The last donation is usually made no closer than three days before the scheduled surgery. This allows the body time to replenish the fluid volume that has been removed.
Conditions that might prevent someone from donating blood to others do not prevent autologous blood donation. People who have had hepatitis, for example, and who may still be carriers of the hepatitis virus, can give blood to themselves. This is also true of people who would be ineligible to give blood because they are on medication.
Nor do age limits and other restrictions on blood donors apply to autologous blood collection. The major consideration is simply the health of the patient. Taking blood for autologous transfusion is considered safe even for children and pregnant women.
Occasionally, some people may not be able to donate enough of their own blood to meet their needs. But even partial use of autologous blood will reduce the chance of an infection or adverse reaction from a transfusion of blood from other donors.
A study of 180 patients scheduled for elective surgery at a Boston hospital found that most could donate a unit of blood a week without becoming anemic. When the study was completed, it was found that a third of the patients had required no transfusions at all during or after their surgery, and another third had used only their already donated blood. Only one-third of the patients needed blood donated by other persons.
Despite the advantages of autologous transfusion, a 1987 study reported in the New England Journal of medicine found that only 5 percent of some 5,000 eligible patients at 18 hospitals nationwide had stored their blood in advance of planned surgery. Dr. Pearl Toy of the University of California at San Francisco and a coauthor of the report said that was surprising. "We had thought people would be donating blood for themselves because of newspaper stories about the risks of transfusion."
Toy pointed out that "it's safer if you use your own blood. It eliminates the chance of hepatitis and transfusion reactions, which are the two major risks of blood transfusion, and it also releases blood supplies for emergencies. …

Let's hope that Ponder continues his improvement, and gives the Vikings D something to play for. RG3's been better, but it sounds like his game is not all the way back which gives the Vike's D a chance to stop him. Another competitive game, Vikes by 3.
I like it. I'll be at BDubs in CF to watch.
Oh boy, Ponder regressing back? INT on the first 3rd and long of the game.
"We didn't block anyone, but we made up for that by not tackling.", paraphrasing John McKay, former Tampa Bay Buccaneers head coach.

Excellent goal line stand by Vikes D on the one yard line! Redskins lead 3-0.
'Skins kick short on kickoff, avoiding Patterson, and start on own 35 yd line. Looks like the kickoff strategy for the 'Skins.

Is anyone seriously watching this game with four of the top 10 teams in the nation playing tonight???
9 yd TD for the 'Skins. Vikes D makes it easy for them.
'Skins lead 10-7
Would love to see Peterson go off tonight. He's due.
TD for Patterson! Ponder 6 for 6 in the drive. Vikes lead 14-10.
The Vikings are making up for their success by not tackling again.

Hello everyone, I'm back, genuinely down to the reason that I finally know what I'm going to do in the wonderful world of cycling.
Here are a couple of examples, it saves me explaining it and getting it wrong .
These to lovelies: http://fixedgearbikes.blogspot.com/2...ags-fixed.html
and http://fixedgearbikes.blogspot.com/2...m-man-who.html
Now my BMX is sitting in the garage so this is what I'm doing to it. Getting that seat up high (No slouching now) and getting some proper handlebars and maybe a new paintjob.
Though obviously the point of the post is what parts, I want a new sport seat and some handlebars.
I don't want to spend more than £20 on each (I'm only fifteen remember) though I can get these: Saddle: http://www.gooutdoors.co.uk/raleigh-...saddle-p137428 and handlebars: http://www.gooutdoors.co.uk/outland-...25-4mm-p136997.
Hopefully this will piece together though obviously I want your opinions. I might leave the saddle for a while as the stock BMX one is rather comfy and very broken in. Also, I'm thinking of cycling on the road (to and from places) generally using the bike as much as possible, but I have a fear of going on the road, is this normal?
I look forward to hearing from you all.

Well guys and girls, its dead and a little part of me too. My newly built up Colnago ( Candy Blue Colnago )
has bit the dust or road. I was able to ride it three times at least I was driving to my GF's house and I loaded it onto the roof rack like I have done with all my other bikes hundreds of times before. I was 3 min down the highway when I heard a clunk, looked in my rear view mirror to see a ball of sparks as it rolled onto the asphalt at 70mph. I cant even begin to describe my reaction. Im still not sure how it came unhooked, but Im never using a rockymounts again! Thank the gods that it was late and no one was in back of me. I recovered it off the highway quickly and took the corpse home. Fork was destroyed, top tube has a big enough dent that it bowed the whole tube. The rear wheel was destroyed along with the saddle. At least the campy drivetrain was spared. Just a little road rash, nothing a little polish couldn't rub out Now Im on the hunt for a new steel frame. Any suggestions?

Definition of Granulomatous colitis
Granulomatous colitis: Crohn's disease of the colon (the large intestine).
Crohn's disease is a chronic inflammatory disorder, primarily involving the small and large intestine, but which can affect other parts of the digestive system as well. It is named for the doctor who first described the disease in 1932.
The disease is usually diagnosed in persons in their teens or twenties, but can occur at any point in life. Crohn's disease can be a chronic, recurrent condition or can cause minimal symptoms with or even without medical treatment.
In mild forms, Crohn's disease causes small scattered shallow crater-like areas (erosions) called aphthous ulcers in the inner surface of the bowel. In more serious cases, deeper and larger ulcers can develop, causing scarring and stiffness and possibly narrowing of the bowel, sometimes leading to obstruction. Deep ulcers can puncture holes in the bowel wall, leading to infection in the abdominal cavity (peritonitis) and in adjacent organs.
Crohn's disease has many forms: Involvement of the large intestine (colon) only is called Crohn's colitis or granulomatous colitis, while involvement of the small intestine alone is called Crohn's enteritis. The most common part of the small intestine to be affected by Crohn's disease is the last portion, called the ileum. Active disease in this area is termed Crohn's ileitis. When both the small intestine and the large intestine are involved, the condition is called Crohn's enterocolitis (or ileocolitis). Other descriptive terms may be used as well.
Abdominal pain, diarrhea, vomiting, fever, and weight loss can be symptoms. Crohn's disease can be associated with reddish tender skin nodules, and inflammation of the joints, spine, eyes, and liver. Diagnosis is commonly made by x-ray or colonoscopy. Treatment includes medications that are anti-inflammatories, immune suppressors, or antibiotics. Surgery can be necessary in severe cases.
Crohn's disease is an area of active research around the world and new treatment approaches are being investigated which have promise to improve the lives of affected patients.Source: MedTerms™ Medical Dictionary

I am starting this thread over here so that we can list some games and software which are compatible with windows 8 x64 to be run on the computer. I am sure that this thread will be helpful to all the other users who are searching for the same.
I am starting this thread over here so that we can list some games and software which are compatible with windows 8 x64 to be run on the computer. I am sure that this thread will be helpful to all the other users who are searching for the same.
Almost all the softwares which are compatible with the Windows 7 will be compatible with the Windows 8 as well. I don't think that there will be any problem to run those softwares on Windows 8. I have not started to use the Windows 8 by now but I am thinking to install that with a dual boot with Windows XP. If you face any problem in installing or running any of the softwares in Windows 8 then you can surely post that over here and we will try to get that solved.
One of the things that Microsoft has tried to ensure in recent years is the backward compatibility of their platforms. Of course, the result has been far from perfect, and there is a huge list of hardware and software has stopped working from a Windows to another. However, in regard to general applications, it is common to find good results, although the current state of Windows 8 is very elementary and users should expect to encounter some problems. On this occasion, I have chosen to download some copies of popular freeware to see how they react during installation and operation in the new environment.
The spearhead within the maintenance facilities was our primary reference for obvious reasons. There are issues through Temporary Registration as well as purge which are still exists within the Windows 8 but we are glad that CCleaner was installed and functions without any problem. The single asterisk on the record is not recognized Internet Explorer 10 between applications but that should be relatively simple to fix in future releases.
I have also installed the Windows 8 to my computer and have used many of the software with this and none of those software shows me any issue with that.
We could have installed the Windows Live Messenger here, but the idea was to prevent native Microsoft software (with the exception of the same Windows 8, of course) and working with code developed by third parties. I would like to tell you that the Pidgin needs GTK as well as the package to function, ideal for studying closely the working of the Windows 8 at the time of download, install as well as configure. There is no problem with Pidgin and that functions worked so well as normal.
I wish to give some highlight detail for 7-Zip that is to be run in Administrator mode if you want compression extensions associated with this program. This happens in Windows 7 and found exactly the same restriction on Windows 8, although this led us to discover something: Running a program within the administrator mode is very inconvenient under Metro. You can choose the application and then click "Advanced" and select the choice available to execute through the advance privileges.
I think that Windows 7 will also include the Internet Explorer 10 but you must try with some of the other available browsers to test that once if it is running properly or not.
The best option for Windows 8 is obviously a dedicated PC that allows you to take advantage of hardware acceleration. Alternatively, you can create a dual boot system by following one of the many guides found on the Net. A virtualization software requires more hardware resources, so you may want an Intel or AMD recently, at least 4 GB of RAM and enough space on hard disk (16 GB for 32-bit version, 20 GB for the 64 bits). The software is compatible with Windows 8.
List of Compatible Softwares:
- Resource Hacker 220.127.116.11
- Bitche 1.0 build 60
- Tim Cotter Wave MT835UP
- Game Maker Pro 8.0
- Audacity 1.3
- Next Opera 11:50
- IrfanView 4.28
- VLC Media Player 1.2.0
- Opera Mobile 10
- Maxthon 220.127.116.110
With problems
- Blusoleil 8 (a sudden system crash)
Not compatible (at least on my PC)
- Microsoft Office 14 (installation error)
- Microsoft Expression Studio 4 (installation error)
- Jad Maker 1.21
Users can also access Windows 8 titles for the Xbox 360. Console to run programs, players must put the message loud the DVD into the drive of your PC, but also be a member of a paid online service that will probably be some connection to Xbox Live.

Morgan Freeman 'doing very well' following hospital release
Submitted by Nina Sahu on Fri, 08/08/2008 - 06:25
Washington, Aug 8: Oscar winning actor Morgan Freeman has finally been discharged from the hospital where he was recovering from injuries suffered during a car crash.
Freeman had met with a ghastly accident while driving with co-passenger Demaris Meyer and suffered a broken arm, broken elbow and damaged shoulder.
The 'Dark Knight' star had been admitted in a Tennessee hospital.
"I left the hospital today just after 12 noon, Memphis time, I'm doing very well, I feel real good, I just really, I thank the staff at ''Elvis Presley [Hospital]'' and many, many thanks to my many well-wishers, It''s great to know people care about you," People quoted Freeman, as saying in a statement released by his representative.
"He''s recovering nicely at home, and his career will continue as planned," said Freeman's representative Ken Sunshine.
Meanwhile the 71-year-old actor has announced his divorce with Myma his wife of 24 years, from whom he has separated since December.
"And for legal and practical purposes the pair have been separated since December 2007," Freeman's lawyer Bill Luckett said. (ANI)

Is it just me or are there other first time mommies on this board scared of labor. I'm so scared of the pain and not being able to make it. I plan to share this with my doctor on my next visit to see what he can recommend. Even though I have 8 months to go...my thoughts are constantly on the unknown factors of delivery. BTW, due date is 1/15/12 and I'm currently 7 weeks. Thanks in advance for support/advice.�
Labor scares me...
What I discovered when I had my son in 2005 was that as long as the labor was doing what it was supposed to be doing (i.e. I was progressing), I could totally manage the pain. However, I stalled at 5cm for four hours and that was it for natural. I got my epidural and I'm very happy I did. Still going to try to go natural this time. But with the same caviat.
I postponed getting pregnant for that reason. I have had nightmares about it! However, as soon as I found out I was pregnant, I started watching people walking on the street and thought: everyone here was a baby and all these women gave birth... Millions of people do it everyday, everywhere, and are just fine. I also think about the women I know whom I consider physically unfit and weak, and that are moms. They went through labor and are here to tell the story... so I tell myself I can do it too.
i haven't read all the posts, but just thought i'd add my two cents.
I loved both my labours and deliveries. They were both very different. One was 28 hours with very mild easy contractions and delivery was vacuum assisted. The second was 2.5 hours with very intense contractions where i hardly had to push because she just came out so fast. Both I only had a very mild pain reliever (which really, didn't work...) but the moment that that child was born it was the most rewarding experience of my life. I actually look forward to labour and delivery. I see it as a challenge that I know I can meet and succeed in. It is exciting, and at the end you will be holding your precious child and all that pain won't even matter any more. Have confidence in yourself! You can do it!!!
My three girls are pretty cool!
You know come to think of it I was so clueless my first birth I had not idea I was in labor. I walked in my doctors office feeling a little bit "crampy" upon examination my shocked OB said I was dialted to 7 and to rush my butt to the hospital. LOL. the more you focus on the pain, the worse time you will have becasue you will clench your muscles up. Just realx. Birth is not a scary thing its natural and lovely!
Crunchy mom to 6, soon to be 7.
with my first i think i spent the whole time scared to death about the labor/delivery.....only to find that by the time i was 9 months pregnant and miserable i would have pushed her out my eyeball just to be not pregnant anymore.....trust me....when the time comes u wont care if someone tells u its gonna feel like being stabbed in the heart...u will beg for it
i was terrified of labor too. i actually ended up not even thinking i was in labor even though i was because i was convinced it was going to be this terrible, horrific, excruciating pain. my husband forced me to go to the hospital, and i ended up being 6 cm already. my daughter was born two hours later. it honestly wasn't that horrible. the contractions started to hurt the further i got along, but it wasn't horrific until about halfway through pushing. even then, it only lasted a few minutes and was over.
my two girls: 04/03/2010 and 07/20/2012

Products Featured in this Video
Today on this 2004 Saturn Vue we are going to install part number 18002 from Tow Ready. On this vehicle we are going to attach it to the factory tow package. We will get in the back of the vehicle. The tow package is located inside the vehicle on the driver side behind and below the jack storage compartment. Then we will remove the jack itself. Follow this wiring harness down a little ways. You can see the tow package wires themselves. There will just be bare ends of wires right here. 00:33
When you pull out the tow package wiring you are only going to get these five loops right here. The black color is going to be your ground, the green is going to be the right turn signal, the brown is going to be your running lights, yellow is going to be left turn, and the light blue wire is going to be reverse lights. We are installing a 4-pole flat so we do not need reverse lights so we will just take that and put it out of our way. If you want to verify the functions of the wires which is always a good idea. 00:58
We are going to take a light tester and verify the running light circuit first. That is the brown wire so you have got that turned on. So we know that is our running light circuit. On the 4-pole flat it is going to be nice that the wire code is almost identical. Brown is going to be the running lights, yellow is going to be left turn, and green is going to be right turn. However for ground that is going to be white but we are going to run that down to the black wire. Or what might be better is attach it to the sheet metal on the inside of the vehicle for ground. We will make our connections first for our running light circuit. That will be brown to brown. We are going to be using the provided quick splices to make the connection. Just put them side by side and then just squeeze them together with some pliers. 01:47
Now we will double check ourselves with the left turn signal. That is yellow so the left turn on our 4-pole flat will be yellow also. Now test the green so we know that is the right turn so the right turn on the 4-pole is going to be green also. On our white wire we are going to just use a good old ring terminal that we got separately. We are just going to attach it to the sheet metal using the self tapping screw. We have got the hole started. Now lets snug it down. We will hook up our tester to this ground now since we grounded to the sheet metal right here and we have got our right turn still working so we will test that. We are good there so that tells us our ground is good and we have got right turn. Then we will try left turn. Then we will go back to our running light circuit and it looks like we are good there too. At this point we will just tuck our wires back out of the way, reinstall our jack, and when we are not using our 4-pole harness we can keep it in the jack storage compartment. When you are ready to use the 4-pole flat wiring you can just pull off the cover, pull out the harness, and just pull out what you need. You can also put your compartment door back too if you would like. It just snaps into place. Then just shut your door and stay away from the latch and pull out what you need. The door seal is plenty thick where it is not going to hurt anything to shut the door on it. Then you can pull this down to your trailer. With that, that will finish our install of part number 18002 from Tow Ready.

Trailer Wiring Harness Installation - 2009 Saturn Vue
Today on this 2009 Saturn View we'll be installing a Curt T-Connector Vehicle Wiring Harness with 4-Pole Flat Trailer Connector part number C56026. We'll glue the fastener at the bottom of the inner cargo pocket. Using a flat blade screwdriver go ahead and twist out the plastic cap nut. Once we have all of the fasteners out of the corner panel we'll then go ahead and remove the corner pocket. The corner pocket has a push pin fastener in the bottom, so we'll get underneath it and gently pull it up until it releases. To remove the corner pocket I'm just using a plastic pry tool.
TowReady Taillight Converter Hardwire Kit Installation - 2007 Saturn Vue
Today in this 2007 Saturn Vue we're going to install part number 119178KIT. This will actually be easy install. This will use a tow package that's already existing in the vehicle. We need to open up the back hatch and get access to jack storage compartment. We'll open up the door, and we'll go ahead and remove the jack tools. Towards the bottom of the pocket you'll see some loops of wires. We'll go ahead and free those wires up to get better access to them. These wires are in a continuous loop so it's just as well just to leave them like they are, just work out the electric tape to make sure you've better access to them that you can work with. At this point we can go ahead and start taking our converter and attaching it to the tow pack. This will almost be color for color wiring. We'll take our green wire from our converter box and match the green wire on the tow package on the car. We'll do the same thing with the yellow wire and also the brown wire. To make our connections we'll be using the quick splice connectors. Put our quick splice connector on the wire, then slide a new wire next to it and the slowly press down on the metal part in the middle with a pair of pliers to make our connection.
Trailer Wiring Harness Installation - 2009 Saturn Vue
Today on our 2009 Saturn Vue will be installing Tow Ready T-One Connector, part number 118443. Now to begin our installation, we'll need to open the rear left gate, remove the threshold plate, the trunk floor panels and the spare tire tray from the vehicle. Now on the driver side of the vehicle, we need to remove the fasteners that hold the black Styrofoam tray where we can then carefully pry the black tray out from the underneath the side panel. We'll next locate the plastic side pocket inside the driver's side trim panel. We also need to remove the screw here, slowly pull up on the tray until it pops out of the panel. This will expose our wiring that are T-One Connector will tap.
Trailer Wiring Harness Installation - 2003 Saturn Vue
Today on our 2003 Saturn Vue, well be installing the Tow Ready T1 Connector, part number 118418. Before we begin the installation, weve gone ahead and raised the vehicle and removed the rear wheels.

Once we have the assembly loose, well go ahead and unlock the wiring connector that runs to the assembly and disconnect the wiring. Repeat the same process on the passengers side. Well now move to inner wheel wells.

I just had a bike built up by a (for now anonymous) local bike shop. They have a good reputation, but I've not used them before.
Took it out for the first time and found two problems:
1) The rear skewer was loose by almost a full turn I discovered this as I pushed off; the wheel pulled into the stays and I ground to a halt. Good job I wasn't on my downhill start as this might not have happened immediately, but at 40mph in traffic.
2) The cassette had not been tightened. When I handed over the components, I told them I'd put it on by hand, but the mechanic said he'd make a note and that the bike would be tested anyway.
Needless to say, I was mad , but the shop is closed, so I fired off an email asking for an explanation.
Maybe they'll come back very apologetic, but how would you feel and what would you do in this situation?
