Hi, I'm thinking about how to design the best Folding Bike.
So, what terms and standards should be considered?
Any advices would be appreciated.
Hi, I'm thinking about how to design the best Folding Bike.
So, what terms and standards should be considered?
Any advices would be appreciated.
Hiking and having fun!
Oh, yeah!
It should ride like a Swift, fold as small as a Brompton, fold as fast as a tikit, weigh less than 10kg, last forever, and cost less than $1000.
My folding bike photo essays www.dekter.net/
Most desireable folding bike is one that uses as much standardized bike parts as possible so upgrading/customization would be made effortless and cheaply. This makes the Swift the best for me b/c of it's use of standardized parts. Although I will never own a aluminum version one after reading of frame failure.
It would be a full ti Brommi.
"When man first set woman on two wheels with a pair of pedals, did he know, I wonder, that he had rent the veil of the harem in twain? A woman on a bicycle has all the world before her where to choose; she can go where she will, no man hindering." The Typewriter Girl, 1899.
"Every so often a bird gets up and flies some place it's drawn to. I don't suppose it could tell you why, but it does it anyway." Ian Hibell, 1934-2008
Foldiness, Ridyness and Portability are the three factors you need to balance.
This is a bit like the performance triangle for tanks (mobility, armour, firepower). Good ones have a bigger triangle, special requirements need an odd shaped triangle. There is no one BEST solution, depends on your requirements.
There are so many foldy bike around that you will have to come up with something pretty special to compete. You also need to factor in cost and manufacturability, hence no full-Titanium Brompton on the market.
You gotta balance all the following:
Ride quality
Folded size
Ease of fold
Luggage carrying space
killer looks
1) There is no one single bike that is the best in all classes. Even a $6,000 carbon fiber road bike will not be "best" at doing all things. I.e. refine your scope.
2) Spend a few months owning and riding all sorts of folding bikes.
3) Learn how to build bikes.
Is this helpful?
It should fold as small as a Swift, have the standard parts and gearing options of a Brompton, be as stiff as a tikit, ride as sporty as a Strida, cost as little as a Moulton, have the beauty of a Mezzo, fold as cleverly as a Dahon, and have the all-terrain handling of a Carry-Me, the durability of a Citizen, the elegance of a Worksman, the packability of a Montague, and the customer support of a Go-Bike.
People own folders for different reasons, to design the perfect folding bike you need to know who you're aiming at:
People who want very small folding bikes for commuting using public transport for part of the journey?
People who want a bike that rides well but don't have storage for a full sized bike?
People who have contracted mild folderitis and just want a cool folding bike?
People with Severe folderitis who want a rusty old Raleigh twenty to spend a fortune doing it up?
Any of these groups will give you different priorities for how to make the perfect folding bike (the last group are too far gone and you will never be able to make them a perfect bike). Folding bikes are no different to normal bikes in their variety. No-one has ever made the perfect bike. You wouldn't take a carbon framed road bike to pop to the shops, you wouldn't want a childs tricycle to do downhill mountainbiking (hmm or would you? ) and a tandem would be rather a poor choice to take on a skate park ramp.
Before you do anything else you need to decide what the folding bike will be used for and by whom?
I am in the process of designing and building a collapsible bike... getting it built so that it weighs less than 10 kg is one of my goals and aside from being light it also needs to be stiff, strong, and offer an outstanding ride.
I am not asking for much here.
I also have folderitis severitis... have put an inordinate amoount of work into my P20 and figure it is one of the more heavily modded out 20's out there but have not spent a fortune doing it unless you factor in the hours I have spent modifying things.
I have the answer to your question, however I am wondering what the salary for a consulting job of this nature would be ?
Len Rubin has tried, so far missed the price target discussed here by 9000, though,
and still hasn't gotten the funds up [just writing software]
for a manufacturing start up, past, so far, making of more than a couple prototypes..
get your order deposits in early.. it's still pre-production early, from what I gather.. ..
Although I was initially attracted to folders b/c of portability, I gravitate to them because of their maneuverability. I guess I would like to try a mini velo out. However, no lbs around me carries them.
IMO, the frame and fork doesn't have to last forever. They just need to last for a decade or so, but not be difficult or expensive to replace, should they break. And when they do break, they shouldn't break catastrophically.
Think modular frame.
Food for thought: if you aren't dead by 2050, you and your entire family will be within a few years from starvation. Now that is a cruel gift to leave for your offspring. ;)
I don't know about the suspension part.
20" wheels have a distinct disadvantage in tire selection compared to 26". Sure, the wheel is stronger, but the drive train sits lower than MTB, which, to me, sounds like snapping metal bits.
I was thinking of a general purpose rear triangle that will cover commuting, cruising, touring and light off road. Then there will be the longtail attachment, which can be used with other folding bikes as well. Obviously, room for 20x2.0" tires with fenders and proper mounts so that you can use caliper brakes with ISO451, V-brake/canti with ISO406 and disc tab for both sizes. The long tail would only have disc brake mounts.
The front end, which should be cheaper to make, can have a few different lengths and head tube angles, which should give a good selection for proper fit. Two things that the folding bikes have a problem with, are accommodating a variety of sizes with proper fit and steering stability. Lots of people complain about how twitchy a folding bike can feel at first. For me, I think there's a bit of a problem with the telescoping parts designed to fit a variety of rider sizes, because the top tube length doesn't scale too well at the extremes.
The fork can be off the shelf, but the main problem with the newer forks is the rake it offers, so having a slack head tube to adjust for a good caster angle is nice to have.
now getting a general purpose frame or bike under 10kg can be a bit of a challenge, so I suppose a lighter version with a slightly more aggressive geometry should be offered.

Bike friday seasons tikit with alfine 11 and gates belt drive. The only downside, the price! If it was 2500 with the hyperfold included- my order would be in already. Damn I want that bike!
Tikit w/ rohloff already sold. That was quick! 2300 was a good deal considering the price of a rohloff.

part one of the serial - Rebirth
A forced landing is a pilot's worst nightmare. The forced landing of an airliner, on the frigid wastes of Antarctica, is unimaginable. As winter draws its white cloak over the continent, rescue becomes impossible; hope slips away, and the ice entombs its victims.

We've been discussing design of a data warehouse strategy within our group for meeting testing, reproducibility, and data syncing requirements. One of the suggested ideas is to adapt a NoSQL approach using an existing tool rather than try to re-implement a whole lot of the same on a file system. I don't know if a NoSQL approach is even the best approach to what we're trying to accomplish but perhaps if I describe what we need/want you all can help.
- Most of our files are large, 50+ Gig in size, held in a proprietary, third-party format. We need to be able to access each file by a name/date/source/time/artifact combination. Essentially a key-value pair style look-up.
- When we query for a file, we don't want to have to load all of it into memory. They're really too large and would swamp our server. We want to be able to somehow get a reference to the file and then use a proprietary, third-party API to ingest portions of it.
- We want to easily add, remove, and export files from storage.
- We'd like to set up automatic file replication between two servers (we can write a script for this.) That is, sync the contents of one server with another. We don't need a distributed system where it only appears as if we have one server. We'd like complete replication.
- We also have other smaller files that have a tree type relationship with the Big files. One file's content will point to the next and so on, and so on. It's not a "spoked wheel," it's a full blown tree.
We'd prefer a Python, C or C++ API to work with a system like this but most of us are experienced with a variety of languages. We don't mind as long as it works, gets the job done, and saves us time. What you think? Is there something out there like this?

The Coach Flagship Store in Tokyo stays true to brand identity as the brand expands into the Japanese market.
Leather goods retailer Coach boasts a success story in marketing affordable luxury. Keeping in mind the brand's tried-and-true approach to design, along with the bespoke artisan nature of the company's history, architectural firm OMA has created a retail space that entices.
According to Share Design Inspiration Blog, the architects "have re-designed the linear timber display system that was central to their early retail stores of the 1940s." This is complemented by an intricate glazed facade that boasts a maze-like linear design. The Coach Flagship Store in Tokyo exhibits dynamism, making for a retail space that allures consumers with clean design and embodies brand identity.

The RSX is based on the GeForce 7800. It shouldn't be too hard or take long to adapt Nouveau (the Linux nVidia drivers) to work with it.
The RSX is based on the GeForce 7800. It shouldn't be too hard or take long to adapt Nouveau (the Linux nVidia drivers) to work with it.
I haven't tried this version but I'm assuming it's the same where you have to modify it to load linux from your nfs share? It's an interesting project but it's mostly for devs at this stage.
Yay, !
Want to see the 2 Tux's on my TV, again. Like 3 years before with Yellow Dog.
What I wonder, will you have just as much memory available as with OtherOS or is the GameOS also loaded.. Ofcourse it would be great if it would be possible to start the already installed Yellowdog using asbestos..
And as someone else already mentioned, the RSX is based on an nvidia chipset for which already an opensource driver exists, it shouldn't be hard to get that driver compatible with the RSX (Remind you, the RSX is more than a GPU alone).
In theory, with access to an lv2 dump and the SDK, we have everything we need to figure out how the RSX works. But, it would be a case of compiling something using the SDK and seeing what code it generates and how that interacts with the kernel. In all probability, it'd be quite a slow going project...

This is one way to make new friends on holiday - it always works for us!!! We park our little Smart car by a sightseeing area and people come up to take its photo and get chatting. It is like taking your dog for a walk everyone stops you tp chat. We actually only really stopped here for a coffee and a photo of th name and there is not much else to do in this place... but a postcard withthe name is a fun thing to send to people.
- Pros:you just have to see that name
- Cons:there is just the name and the station
- In a nutshell:whats in a name?

Good that they give some help about how to say the name of this town. But actually I think I would go there because of the castle, not the name.
Margaret, lovely little page here. At least I once came through Llanfair PG by train on my way from Llandudno to Anglesey.
I've been her too!!! Was a long time ago and I didn't dare trying to spell it on my pages, ha ha :-) You really should visit the Isle of Man one day - you would love it.
Now are you sure you've spelt it right hahaha, it's a long time since I visited there.
A place I must visit someday. The longest named place I've found in the U.S. is Chargoggagoggmanchauggagoggchaubunagungamaugg Lake in Massachusetts.
Is this place for real?
LOL... funny to see how most people who have been here will end up at this very same spot!croeso y llanfairpwll...gogogoch (-:

Karyotype Test
Karyotype Test
Test Overview
Karyotype is a test to identify and evaluate the size, shape, and number of chromosomes in a sample of body cells. Extra or missing chromosomes, or abnormal positions of chromosome pieces, can cause problems with a person's growth, development, and body functions.
Why It Is Done
Karyotyping is done to:
- Find out whether the chromosomes of an adult have a change that can be passed on to a child.
- Find out whether a chromosome defect is preventing a woman from becoming pregnant or is causing miscarriages .
- Find out whether a chromosome defect is present in a fetus . Karyotyping also may be done to find out whether chromosomal problems may have caused a fetus to be stillborn.
- Find out the cause of a baby's birth defects or disability.
- Help determine the appropriate treatment for some types of cancer.
- Identify the sex of a person by checking for the presence of the Y chromosome. This may be done when a newborn's sex is not clear.
How To Prepare
You do not need to do anything before you have this test.
Talk to your doctor about any concerns you have about the need for the test, its risks, or how it will be done. To help you understand the importance of this test, fill out the medical test information form (What is a PDF document?) .
Since the information obtained from karyotyping can have a profound impact on your life, you may want to see a doctor who specializes in genetics (geneticist) or a genetic counsellor . This type of counsellor is trained to help you understand what karyotype test results mean for you, such as your risk for having a child with an inherited (genetic) condition like Down syndrome . A genetic counsellor can help you make well-informed decisions. Ask to have genetic counselling before making a decision about a karyotype test.
How It Is Done
Karyotype testing can be done using almost any cell or tissue from the body. A karyotype test usually is done on a blood sample taken from a vein. For testing during pregnancy, it may also be done on a sample of amniotic fluid or the placenta .
Blood sample from a vein
The health professional drawing your blood will:
- Wrap an elastic band around your upper arm to stop the flow of blood. This makes the veins below the band larger so it is easier to put a needle into the vein.
- Clean the needle site with alcohol.
- Put the needle into the vein. More than one needle stick may be needed.
- Attach a tube to the needle to fill it with blood.
- Remove the band from your arm when enough blood is collected.
- Apply a gauze pad or cotton ball over the needle site as the needle is removed.
- Apply pressure to the site and then a bandage.
Cell sample from a fetus
For this type of test, cells are collected from the fetus using amniocentesis or chorionic villus sampling .
For more information about amniocentesis, see:
Cell sample from bone marrow
Bone marrow aspiration may be used for a karyotype test. To learn more about how this test is done, see the topic Bone Marrow Aspiration and Biopsy.
How It Feels
Blood sample from a vein
You may feel nothing at all from the needle puncture, or you may feel a brief sting or pinch as the needle goes through the skin. Some people feel a stinging pain while the needle is in the vein. But many people do not feel any pain, or have only minor discomfort, once the needle is positioned in the vein. The amount of pain you feel depends on the skill of the health professional drawing the blood, the condition of your veins, and your sensitivity to pain.
Blood sample from a vein
There is very little chance of a problem from having a blood sample taken from a vein.
- You may get a small bruise at the puncture site. You can lower the chance of bruising by keeping pressure on the site for several minutes.
- In rare cases, the vein may become swollen after the blood sample is taken. This condition is called phlebitis. You can use a warm compress several times daily to treat this.
- Ongoing bleeding can be a problem for people who have bleeding disorders. ASA, warfarin (Coumadin), and other blood-thinning medicines can make bleeding more likely. If you have bleeding or clotting problems, or if you take blood-thinning medicine, tell your doctor before your blood sample is taken.
Karyotype is a test to identify and evaluate the size, shape, and number of chromosomes in a sample of body cells.
Results of a karyotype test are usually available within 1 to 2 weeks.
What Affects the Test
If you are being treated for cancer, the results of a karyotype test may not be accurate. Chromosomes may be damaged by some types of cancer treatment.
What To Think About
- If the results of karyotype are abnormal, other family members may be advised to have the test.
- A sample taken by gently swabbing the tissues inside the cheek (called a buccal swab) sometimes is used for a karyotype test. But results from buccal swabbing are less accurate than other types of karyotype tests.
- Sometimes a karyotype test is combined with other genetic tests to provide more specific information about genetic problems. To learn more, see the topic Genetic Test.

'Cosmos' is back with new host for new generation
It was Seth MacFarlane, the comic mind behind "Family Guy" and other projects including Fox's "American Dad!" and the movie "Ted," who got the network involved in the project. MacFarlane, a fan of the original "Cosmos," also turns out to be a Tyson admirer. The two met through a group that connects people in science and entertainment for the exchange of ideas.
MacFarlane told reporters in January that he "wanted to sit down and ask him (Tyson) a whole bunch of nerd questions, and so I asked if he wanted to have lunch, and astonishingly he said 'yes.'"
They became collaborators on "Cosmos," with MacFarlane an executive producer. The project has the look of a costly sci-fi film, reflecting what Tyson called a budget "commensurate" with its scope as well as the participation of top entertainment industry talent such as Bill Pope, director of photography on "Matrix" and "Spider-Man" movies.
Patrick Stewart, Richard Gere, Kirsten Dunst and other actors give voice to the scientists whose achievements are part of "Cosmos."
Adding to its pedigree: Sagan's widow, Ann Druyan, who wrote the original series with Sagan and Steven Soter and who joined again with Soter to craft the second.
She's also an executive producer on the series, which she said avoids duplicating its predecessor aside from a few elements, such as the Ship of the Imagination and the Cosmic Calendar, and the audacity of its vision.
"Yes, it's the same in that intersection of emotion and solid science and fabulous facts and animation and drama and history," she told a news conference. "But it's completely new."
For Tyson, the series is a means to connect viewers to the "awe and wonder" of the universe and the role of science in helping them "become a better shepherd of this world."
"We have huge issues confronting us in civilization today, in energy and transportation and health and asteroid risks and viruses, and all of these require scientific insights to address," he said.

Grove residents urge school officials to rethink policy on Gideons International's Scriptures
GROVE — School officials were urged at a Tuesday school board meeting to rescind a new policy prohibiting the distribution of Scriptures to fifth-graders.
Gideons International has given the pocket-size New Testament, which also includes the Psalms and Proverbs, to Grove students for decades.
About 100 people turned out for the meeting in support of allowing the group to continue that tradition.
The Rev. Tony Wisdom and lawyer Robert Plunk urged the five-member school board to rethink the ban, which was approved this year after complaints and threats of a lawsuit from parents.
Gideons International was founded in 1899 and distributes Bibles in 190 countries, according to the group's website.
Plunk told the board that the Rotary Club gives dictionaries to third-graders, and that the Scriptures can be offered as long as it is done in the same manner.
The board did not address the policy during the meeting and took no action.
Wisdom, who spoke to thunderous applause, said students should be given access to "the greatest book ever written."
The minority should not override the majority, he said, adding that other religions also should have the right to give out materials.
Students are not forced to take the New Testaments or other religious literature, Wisdom said.
School board President Jim Rutter said the district had received several complaints in the past when the Scriptures were given out.
"There were people that wanted us to lose our jobs for allowing the Gideons to pass out Bibles last year," Superintendent Sandy Coaly said Wednesday.
"We were told if we allowed them to be passed out, the school would be sued," Coaly said. "If it was me personally, we would have them (Bibles) in our backpack and read them 30 minutes a day."
Ken Black of Gideons International said, "We are working with the school to work out a compromise not to break any laws."
"I have a child in Jay Middle School, and I see nothing wrong with the Gideon's offering Bibles on campus," resident Leanna Buske said.
Buske said it would be OK for other religions to offer reading materials. Students are free to take the material or not, she said.
"I am for anything that puts morals and character back into our schools," Buske said.
Amie Harrison of Miami, OK, who has two school-age children, approved of the Scriptures that were given to her children in previous years.
"As a parent, it is my responsibility to teach my children what I hope they will believe and follow," she said. "So when someone hands them something, they will have the ability to decide if they want to accept it or not."

The editors of the journal PLoS Medicine today published an editorial, "The Paradox of Mental Health: Over-Treatment and Under-Recognition." Excerpts:
"On the one hand is over-treatment and over-medicalization of mental health issues, often fueled by a pharmaceutical industry interested in the broadening of the boundaries of illness and in the creation of more and wider diagnostic categories and thus markets for selling sickness. On the other hand exists profound under-recognition of the suffering and breadth of mental health issues affecting millions of people across geographies, which is a global problem.
Over-diagnosis in mental health risks unnecessary tests and treatment, the stigma associated with being labeled mentally ill, and the considerable costs of testing, treatment, and wasting resources that could be better utilized elsewhere
The recent DSM-5 (psychiatry's Diagnostic & Statistical Manual) process is a lightning rod for these concerns: this month's update of the psychiatric diagnostic manual has been widely criticized for continuing the tradition of broadening diagnostic categories and adding new conditions that redefine more people as having mental illness and in need of pharmaceutical treatment. That decisions about DSM-5 categories are made by experts with financial ties to the industry that benefits most from a widened patient population, is particularly worrying."
The piece lists ongoing efforts to address the topic:
It concludes:
"The largest challenge may be to recognize and prioritize mental health globallywith the requisite political visibility, funding, research, and attentionwithout reducing it to an object for disease mongering, pathologizing, and harmful over-treatment."

The facility is located near the interesection of Mortensen Road and South Dakota Avenue. The land was donated to the Iowa State University Foundation for the facility by local developer Dickson Jensen. The facility is tenatively scheduled to be completed in Sept. 2009.
Basketball Practice Facility Update: May 7, 2009 - Iowa State University Athletics Official Web Site - www.CYCLONES.com - The home of Iowa State Cyclone Sports
That is a big facility
It is really starting to take shape. I am going to be up in Ames tomorrow to walk through it with Ryan. I will post some more pics this weekend. I bet the players and coaches are getting excited for it to be completed.

EBook: Six Tips for Using Supply Chain Modeling for Trading Partner Collaboration from Experts at Unilever, Cardinal Health and CHEP
EBook: LLamasoft Supply Chain Guru vs. Spreadsheets—Top 8 Reasons Why Modeling Technology Beats Out Spreadsheet-Based Solutions
EBook: 10 Tips for Elevating Supply Chain Design from a Project to a Differentiating Business Process
Globalisation has delivered some expected and unexpected benefits and challenges: Supply chains are more dynamic, more complex and carry more risk. Leading companies are scrutinising the performance of each node in their supply chain to ensure internal and external targets are met.
An optimized supply chain is not necessarily a resilient one. You can use modeling technology to accurately identify and quantify potential supply chain risks and their corresponding costs, and develop mitigation strategies through scenario optimization and advanced analytics to build resiliency into your operations. Recovery Time Time
How do you recruit for and continue to develop your valuable supply chain staff and keep their job satisfaction and performance increasing? Supply chain design teams require the right people, skills and organizational relationships to thrive. Here are some ideas to consider, and how LLamasoft can support your efforts.
A well-developed business case provides the motivation, alignment and commitment from organizational leadership to pursue an effort with sufficient monetary and resource support for it to be successful. Here are some tips for how to bring together the information, resources and motivation to win them over.
The more complex the supply chain, the greater the risk, and the automotive supply chain is as complex as it gets. Supply chain design technology enables automotive manufacturers to model, optimize and simulate supply chain network operations, transportation routes and inventory levels, leading to major improvements in cost, service, sustainability and risk mitigation.
From long-term and strategic initiatives to short-term and tactical planning, this white paper describes nine ways food and beverage companies can use modeling technology to tackle industry challenges and drive competitive advantage, including establishing manufacturing strategy, production capacity modeling, ensuring product freshness and sales, inventory and operations planning.
Supply chain design technology enables companies to model their supply chains, evaluate alternatives, optimize the network structure and simulate multiple scenarios in order to predict the resulting operational performance of the merged organizations. Learn how to utilize supply chain modeling across all stages and types of M&A activity.
Discrete event simulation is a unique form of analysis that truly factors time and variability into each individual transaction, decision and movement throughout the supply chain. Learn simulation creates a detailed model of the end-to-end supply chain that incorporates variability into elements such as demand, sourcing lead times, transport times, handling and production.
Much like that money in your coat, there are numerous supply chain cost saving opportunities that are hidden just below the surface at most companies, and you can utilize supply chain modeling technology to uncover that money. Read this whitepaper to learn the four key modeling techniques used by many leading companies to "find" money in the supply chain.
Many of the world's best known companies' supply chains grew from a series of historical accidents rather than intentional design. By creating living models of the corporate supply chain, companies can examine how their supply chains will perform under a wide range of market conditions and assumptions and analyze the trade-offs of cost, service and risk.
How can you design a transportation network that can achieve its full potential? Only through computations that isolate your legacy infrastructure and model the data with a 'what if' freedom. Transportation network design is a rapidly-growing analysis approach that enables companies to create digital "models" of their end-to-end supply chains to evaluate new strategies and identify break-through performance improvements.
Many of the world's leading retailers have dramatically increased their profitability by designing the optimal supply chain to achieve the desired (highest) customer service level at the lowest cost. Read this whitepaper to learn supply chain design strategies used by the world's leading retailers to achieve maximum profitability. These strategies include: Omni-Channel Fulfillment, Supply Chain Segmentation, Right-Sizing Inventory, Product Flow-Path Optimization and more.
Many of the world's leading companies have found that modeling production footprint, operations and capacity as part of their end-to-end supply chain design practice can be the key to outperforming the competition. This article highlights five production modeling initiatives, along with real-life examples, of how some of the world's leading companies have leveraged production modeling to drive true competitive advantage through better supply chain design.
By creating living models of the end-to-end supply chain, companies can examine how the supply chain will perform under a wide range of market conditions and assumptions, and analyze the trade-offs between cost, service and risk. These companies are able to mitigate business risk through the engineering of their supply chain operations. This whitepaper highlights three key elements of supply chain risk mitigation: Visibility, Scenario Analysis, and Rapid Response.
There is a strong and ever-increasing trend of companies making supply chain design a core business function, and using this competency as a competitive weapon for their business. They are using modeling technology to continuously optimize the end-to-end supply chain to improve service levels, identify major cost savings, reduce risk and stay ahead of other companies in their market. Here are three tips for how to create your own COE.

Wouldn't it be cool to play with your own miniature sized replica and imagine that you were actually shrunk to several millimeters height by a giant x-ray? At least that's what came into my mind first when I saw this amazing project done by Omote3D. The principle is borrowed from ordinary photo booths, the only difference is that you are photographed with a three-dimensional camera and the result is a custom miniature action figure of you!

When Raike didn't answer right away, Kerin went back to searching for Marisa. With his eyes and provided she moved around frequently, he would be able to find her. Unfortunately for him, she was as stealthy as she was tiny and his brief search came back fruitless. He worried about her, and he worried about what Ryuu was going to do with her when they were chained. He wouldn't kill her, because then he'd have to carry her around (the thought of Ryuu pulling around Marisa's dead body made him grit his teeth together) unless... he broke her hand off (and that thought made him even more angry). He'd keep her around until he found out a way to separate the two of them, but the way Marisa talked about it... how were they connected? Handcuffed, wasn't it? What would happen if the cuffs were weak and easily breakable or if Ryuu was disgusting enough to pull... to p-pull off Marisa's arm? Kerin wouldn't let that happen. Whatever happened to him, he'd find Marisa no matter what. Speaking of Ryuu, where did he go?
When he came back to the world around him, he had just enough time to realise that there was that angry, teenaged demon he was wondering about running at him with a manic grin on his face. Kerin blinked once in surprise then darted to his left out of the way, just missing the brute force of the demon and letting Ryuu run into whatever was behind Kerin. What the hell?! Kerin wasn't a tree! Though, he felt a little like a bullfighter thanks to the way that Ryuu had ran at him.
"What the hell?!" Kerin looked back at the demon, his own face tangled into one mixed of confusion and surprise. "What was that for?!"

Usually Ships in 1-5 Days
Selected by the Modern Library as one of the 100 best novels of all time
From the Modern Library's new set of beautifully repackaged hardcover classics by William Faulkner also available are "Snopes, The Sound and the Fury, Light in August, Absalom, Absalom , "and "Selected Short Stories"
One of William Faulkner's finest novels, "As I Lay Dying, " originally published in 1930, remains a captivating and stylistically innovative work. The story revolves around a grim yet darkly humorous pilgrimage, as Addie Bundren's family sets out to fulfill her last wish: to be buried in her native Jefferson, Mississippi, far from the miserable backwater surroundings of her married life. Told through multiple voices, "As I Lay Dying" vividly brings to life Faulkner's imaginary South, one of literature's great invented landscapes, and is replete with the poignant, impoverished, violent, and hypnotically fascinating characters that were his trademark. Along with a new Foreword by E. L. Doctorow, this edition reproduces the corrected text of "As I Lay Dying" as established in 1985 by Faulkner expert Noel Polk.
About the Author
William Faulkner was an American writer, Nobel Prize laureate and Pulitzer Prize winner. A prolific writer, Faulkner is best known for his novels and short stories, including The Sound and the Fury and As I Lay Dying, which are set in fictional Yoknapatawpha County, and the Snopes trilogy which includes The Hamlet, The Town and The Mansion. Along with Mark Twain, Truman Capote, Tennessee Williams and Harper Lee, Faulkner is considered one of the most important writers of Southern literature and is known for his experimental style, including the use of stream of consciousness. Faulkner died in 1962.
Edgar Lawrence Doctorow is an American author known for his works of historical fiction.
Praise For…
"For range of effect, philosophical weight, originality of style, variety of characterization, humor, and tragic intensity, [Faulkner's works] are without equal in our time and country."
--Robert Penn Warren

An Interview with Yotam Ottolenghi
Is there any cookbook more popular right now than Sami Tamini and Yotam Ottolenghi's Jerusalem? With their previous book Plenty also remaining in the spotlight, the folks at 10 Speed Press have rereleased a US edition of Ottolenghi: The Cookbook, the very first Ottolenghi cookbook which was previously only available in its original UK edition.
Read on for our interview with Yotam Ottolenghi on this first cookbook, his latest favorite ingredients, and what he's cooking in his kitchen right now!
Balaboosta by Einat Admony
New Cookbook
Balaboosta translates literally from Yiddish to "perfect housewife." For Einat Admony, restaurant-owner and survivor of Food Network's Chopped, this idea has nothing to do with keeping an immaculate house or having dinner ready by 5:00. To her, a balaboosta nourishes with laughter as well as with food, cares for family and friends not out of expectation but out of deep love, and perhaps most of all, cooks from the gut. This cookbook is both her ode to the modern balaboosta and her handbook for how to be one.
Recipe: Iranian Jeweled Rice
Recipes from The Kitchn
I recently spent a few days with Najmieh Batmanglij — known to many as the Queen of Persian Cooking — who opened me up to the cooking of her native Iran, and in particular to a rice dish called Jeweled Rice, or Javaher Polow.
When I took my first bite, I almost cried from a near overload in flavor, fragrance, balance and a notable infusion of love in the grains of rice, tart little barberries, and strands of candied orange peel.
Summer Salad Spotlight: Fattoush
It's easy to make a pretty basic salad with lettuces and summer tomatoes this time of year. Produce is at the height of freshness and if you're using sweet, juicy tomatoes they often need very little dressing. But when you find yourself inspired to go beyond basic greens, fattoush is a fresh, filling salad that celebrates summer tomatoes like no other.
Delights from the Garden of Eden by Nawal Nasrallah
New Cookbook
Set aside the afternoon and make yourself another cup of coffee because this book on Iraqi cuisine by Nawal Nasrallah will draw you in so completely that you won't realize the hours have passed. Part cookbook, part history book, part bedtime story (at least for me!) — Delights from the Garden of Eden is a veritable encyclopedia of anything and everything having to do with Iraqi cuisine.
Recipe: Heirloom Tomato Salad with Pomegranate-Sumac Dressing
Recipes from The Kitchn
You'd think I didn't like fresh tomatoes, the way I avoid them most of the year. Yet it's precisely because I love tomatoes — ripe, juicy, just-plucked and not shipped-around-the-world ones — that I wait until summer. At last the season has arrived, filling my dinner plate with colorful rounds of heirloom tomatoes. Here's one way I like to serve them: a simple salad with a sweet, tangy pomegranate and sumac dressing and a handful of fresh herbs.
How To Make Hummus from Scratch
Cooking Lessons from The Kitchn
I'm fairly convinced that hummus is some of the best stuff on earth. It might look beige and boring in the bowl, but this blend of soft chickpeas, olive oil, tahini, lemon juice, and garlic creates a dip that is so much more than the sum of its parts. Skip the store bought stuff — making it yourself is so easy and will be far tastier than just about anything from the deli section.

Ramadan Food: When And What To Eat
Ramadan (in Arabic: رمضان, Ramadān) is the ninth month in the Islamic calendar. During the whole month, faithful observers of Islam fast from sunrise (Sahour) to sunset (Iftar). During the fast, no food or drink is consumed, and thoughts must be kept pure. Followers of Islam believe that fasting helps the Muslim learn patience, modesty, and spirituality. Meals are served before sunrise and after sunset, and eaten with family or with the local community.
How to Make Baklava
Cooking Lessons from The Kitchn
Baklava is one of those desserts that has a reputation for difficulty, but is actually surprisingly easy to make. I suspect this is because working with phyllo dough always seems tricky, but if you follow a few very simple tips, it's really not — and the results are addictive. Read on for how to make a pan of sticky, sweet, buttery, flaky, nutty baklava!

I believe empty CO2 cartridges can be recycled as steel, but can they be refilled?
I have not yet converted to CO2 but the convenience factor makes them mighty attractive. It just seems like a waste to recycle the empties, considering the all the energy used to crush, melt and reform the steel. Sure recycling is better than burying in a landfill, but if the empties can be refilled, that'd be better.

Great fit, but be careful of bleed
By juliebooly
from New York, NY
About Me Classic
I love the fit and look of these jeans. They are great for spring and I've received tons of compliments.BUT...be very careful what you wash them with. I completely ruined a cream top (and had to rewash some socks) which turned a light version of these jeans when I had them in with a few lighter items. I would definitely only wash them with dark colors the first few times!

Review: "The Hobbit" by J. R. R. Tolkien
This book is about a hobbit named Bilbo Baggins. What is a hobbit, you ask? Well, they are little people smaller than dwarves. They are rather fond of food, eating at the least six meals a day, which leaves them rather fat. They wear bright colors yet seldom wear shoes, for the soles of their feet are hard and leathery. Another important fact is this: they scarcely ever leave their village. Yes, hobbits are not really the type of person you would choose for an adventure. But, there is one family of hobbits that can't resist a good adventurer: the Tooks. Now we come back to Bilbo. Bilbo is part Took. This is why Gandalf (a mighty wizard) came to call on him one fateful day. Before he knew it, Bilbo had 13 dwarves eating his food and speaking of gold, and Bilbo's new career… a robber. And that is how Bilbo came to be traveling without even a pocket hanky off in search of dragon gold.
"The Hobbit" is fascinating. With songs and riddles, the vivid descriptions replace all need for illustrations. I would recommend it to anyone looking for an exiting, funny, adventure story.

Does anyone suffering from this kind of crash? Please help me to fix it.
