when I do a long 12 or 24 hour mtn bike endurance, the next day I will usually end up with a big painful boil like zit between my ass and the top of my thigh any ideas on how i can prevent this from happening?
when I do a long 12 or 24 hour mtn bike endurance, the next day I will usually end up with a big painful boil like zit between my ass and the top of my thigh any ideas on how i can prevent this from happening?
title was a little too raw for BF, so I changed it to the name that everyone else uses for this phenomenon. I use triple antibiotic ointment as a chamois cream and after a long ride and it does seem to help. There are any number of chamois creams sold. If you aren't wearing cycling shorts with a chamois, that will probably help your problem.
Besides what's been said, try lowering your saddle a few mm.
This is the best stuff for everything skin issue, BAG BALM. They sell it at Costco even. Originally used for milking cows, but turns out good for alot of things, including saddle sores.
Above is all good. Three other things:
Every day and after cycling, use a dandruff shampoo on your crotch. I like Tegrin, green cap. Put it on first and rinse it off last.
Your saddle may be a little too wide right there. You may need a more T-shaped saddle.
Your shorts pad may be too heavy. Try a thinner pad. This is the same answer as the saddle answer really, just a different way of doing it.
You need to distinguish between an actual infection and raw skin. Sounds a bit more like the latter, which is a whole lot easier to deal with.
Recurrent infections (boils) usually drain pus and require drainage (cutting open) and perhaps, though not always antibiotics. They also
tend to occur in other places on occasion. Raw skin, abraded away by the friction between saddle/shorts/skin suggests you need a different
saddle, better shorts and some lubrication til this is sorted out. On a 12-24 hour ride periodic changing into dry shorts is a good idea, bag balm
is a good lube (basically it is petroleum jelly with a bit of menthol and something else innocuous and odorous thrown in-minimal antibacterial
capacity, but good lube). Tribiotic ointment is petroleum jelly contaminated with several topical antibiotics, one of which (neomycin) is a skin
sensitizer and can cause a poison ivy like rash if used too long. Polysporin is a better choice, but petroleum jelly works just as well for lube
purpose and is a lot cheaper. Raw skin will heal in a week or so, assuming you didn't rub through the dermis and expose fat, hard to do
unless you are highly pain tolerant, but that is the definition of a 24hr racer isn't it? Infections are a whole nother topic, especially in view
of the CA-MRSA floating around the past 6-8yrs.
1) Take steps to make sure your bicycle fits you property.
2) Get a decent saddle.
3) Get a decent pair of shorts (not necessarily padded)

screen has a command,
at, which lets you control other sessions by sending screen commands to them. Does
tmux have something like that? I tried
send-prefix and
send-keys, but those send keys to the process running inside tmux; you can't use them to control tmux itself.
Trying to send a control command by doing something like this:
send-keys -t main:1 "tmux select-window -t :1" ENTER
doesn't work if the inner process is something other than a shell. And it also fails if you're sending the keys from a linked session, even when the inner process is a shell. (In that case your current session is the one affected.)

The hypothesis that the degree to which parents control the mate choice of their children may explain differences in mate guarding across and within cultures was tested. Study 1, in a sample of 80 students from 30 different countries studying in The Netherlands, showed that the perceived level of parental influence on mate choice in a culture was associated with more mate guarding reported by individuals from that culture. Study 2, in a sample of 242 Argentinean individuals, showed that individuals who were more in favor of parental influence on mate choice did report more mate guarding. The effects remained intact when controlling for potentially confounding variables.

"Whose zoo? (excuse the pun)" Bristol Zoo Gardens Tip by themajor
Bristol Zoo Gardens, Bristol: 8 reviews and 14 photos
I know opinions are divided about zoos but if you're going to have them then the Bristol Zoological Gardens is one of the best. First founded in 1835 it is the fifth oldest zoo in the world but it hasn't stayed in the past. You get the overall feeling that the animals are well cared for and some of the enclosures - particularly the themed coastal one for the penguins - really are stunningly good. The regular talks on the gorilla family are well worth attending - ask for times when you go in - and the recently arrived baby is definately worth a peek. We also spent a very enjoyable 10 minutes watching the giant tortoises tussle with their large chums for sticks of celery. Obviously a bit of a delicacy as far as they're concerned!
UK VTers will remember the iconic 'Animal Magic' BBC childrens television programme from the 60s and 70s featuring the much missed Johnny Morris. Well this is where he filmed all his snippets in the guise of Keeper Morris. Curiously I didn't see anything reminding people of the fact - let's hope it's me missing it rather than an oversight on their part.
There is a restaurant/café on site with plenty of indoor and outdoor seating for all. It's actually much better than it looks and I can personally vouch for the splendid homemade cakes!

Teyana Taylor on "Sweet 16" in 2007, and now, rocking the red carpet at 22.
Flashback Friday alert! A former "Super Sweet 16" birthday girl is back in action, returning to the small screen on MTV2's "Week In Jams." Six years ago, Teyana Taylor made her MTV debut as a hip-hop singer with a memorable hairdo and high demands, but in the "WIJ" sneak peek below, Teyana shows us she's not only tamed her coif, but also her 'tude, and we get to see a more humble side to the Harlem diva.
In the clip, the show's hosts recall The-Dream's unforgettable Jay-Z/Grammys hat incident (when Jay jokingly called him cheap), and Teyana kindly empathizes with the super-producer. "I've been to the swap meet plenty of times!" she proudly admits. "I get my nails done at the swap meet." A far cry from the spoiled girl who requested marching bands and break dancers at her 16th birthday party!
Need a little reminder of Teyona's "Super Sweet" heyday? Check out a portion of the episode below, and don't miss "Week In Jams" this Sunday at 11/10c on MTV2!

Petri dishes for bioscience job growth
Northeast Pennsylvania has been locked in a classic vicious cycle. Unemployment remains a percentage point above the national average, forcing more talented young people to seek jobs elsewhere, diminishing the overall skill and diversity of the workforce, leading to an older workforce with out-of-date skills, fewer new opportunities and more unemployment.
There is no single answer to the problem. But two new initiatives are significant steps in the right direction. Just as fundamental economic problems breed more economic problems, the programs' success could breed more success.
Lackawanna County Commissioners Corey O'Brien and Jim Wansacz have established a $1.25 million economic development fund for next year that includes promotion of bioscience businesses. It includes an innovative effort to boost small business development that a Small Business Administration official described as the first of its kind.
The county will provide up to $400,000 to cover SBA loan fees for companies that secure the required bank financing and meet other SBA criteria. Since SBA makes loans of up to $5 million, the fee waiver program could make a huge difference to help companies and boost employment
That program applies only to Lackawanna County. The second is the Pennsylvania Regional Bioscience Initiative. Its objective is to nurture bioscience businesses, drawing an a vast array of resources from the Commonwealth Medical College, to science and innovation centers at the region's universities through existing bioscience companies like Sanofi-Pasteur, the big vaccine producer in Monroe County.
Both efforts are promising responses to the region's persistent, systemic problems. They hold the potential to help convert the vicious economic cycle into one of growth and opportunity.

There always comes a time when you hear a song, but can't figure out the name of it, or who it's by. Luckily, your Android phone's got you covered. Simply open up SoundHound, press the big orange button and presto: you're song, who it's by, where to find it, videos, lyrics, and even a link to the Amazon MP3 file are all available at your fingertips. My personal favorite feature has to be the 'Sing and Hum' recognition which means if you can carry the tune, then SoundHound can recognize it – now that's innovation! Another cool thing we liked was that it automatically saves any search you do within the app allowing for easy referencing if need be. Now, that's a lot of features, and to put the icing on the cake, the company has just released a free version which gives you five "ID's" to start with. If you feel like it, you can also earn more credits by Tweeting your songs, which we thought was pretty fair if you didn't want to pay $4.99 for the premium version. After the break are some screenshots, so be sure not to miss them. Free version: [Market Link | AppBrain] Paid version: [Market Link | AppBrain]

Android quick app: SoundHound
Shazam doesn't allow you to sing/hum to identify a song.
The free iPhone version of Shazam is limited to 5/month, which it states specifically here:
The Android FAQ, located here:
Makes no mention of such a limitation.
Good question...
Shazam doesn't allow you to sing or hum the song.
I haven't tried either, but people try to hum songs to me far more often than I unsuccessfully try to come up with a song title or artist off the radio.
Just played with it mostly worked good didn't recognize my singing and yes its that bad but otherwise worked great.
It actually works very well. I'm no singer, so I hummed a few songs and it recognized every one of them. I am quite impressed. I tried humming into Shazam and got nowhere.
I'm sold.
My vote is for Shazam way over this one. Unlimited & free. As for the humming thing? Rarely do I get a song stuck in my head. so not a problem. Usually tagging off the radio.
For those of you who think Shazam may work with humming - it won't. It doesn't listen to the actual music notes. It listens to an electronically transmitted song title (in audible to the human ear). You know those car radios that show the currently playing song title from the radio station - it listens to that signal. Most TV shows and movies retain that transmission and your computer broadcasts it, too. That's why Shazam won't work at a concert - it doesn't listen to what you can hear.
They had the devs of Shazam on NPR's science friday a long time ago. That's where I learned this.
That's not how Shazam works at all. If you heard it on NPR you may have misunderstood the "signature" they explained.
You can read about how it works here... http://www.slate.com/id/2232914
wrong wrong wrong. songs don't have an embedded electronic song title, radios receive that information over FM waves. shazam creates a song 'fingerprint' by taking around 3 samples per second, and matching that with the song you're tagging. the reason it won't work with live shows is because the acoustics of live performances don't match with the 'fingerprinted' acoustics of the recorded versions.
otherwise, how would it tag songs from the 50's or 60's? you think the beatles thought, 'oh, don't forget to electronically tag these songs so that our fans in 2010 can use their iphones to find out which one their listening to'? music wasn't even recorded digitally then! how would they insert inaudible electronic song titles?? try shazam-ing a vinyl record, it still works.
i can't believe you actually listened to the devs on NPR and COMPLETELY missed what they were talking about, then came here and shared your incorrect knowledge with us.
ps. I'm pretty sure your computer doesn't broadcast FM radio
Sell outs. I don't think so. Their keeping us informed of options in the android market. I like that they do this. I understand that many people including myself, think that Shazam is better (mainly because its free), but don't discredit this story just because they are trying to let people know about a legitimate application that works very well. Paid programs keep the android market growing and many people will find this humming feature to come in handy. I have in a few instances, but just not enough yet to buy it, but did did enjoy the free version.
Count me as an oddball, but I've been using SoundHound for a while now and LOVE it over Shazam. It not only picks up a person singing or humming a song (something that Shazam DOES NOT do) but you can also speak or type in a song or an artist, from there it will you show you every album or song by that person along with links to youtube AND lyrics to the song.
AMAZING PROGRAM! Give it a try before you write it off as another Shazam copy-cat.
Geese...some of you people are frack'n a-holes...If you would take your head out of your butts for 2 seconds you'd realize that, just because an app is free doesn't make it the best choice...SoundHound is a great app and I'd rather it over Shazam any day of the week...it's extra features are worth the price. Just because your are a cheap-ass please don't blindly disregard a paid app without fair comparison.
No offense to the AC bloggers, but I have to agree. I have noticed a few gramatical errors on the site as well. A wee bit of copy editing goes a long way and keeps grammar [insert your word here] like myself from going crazy reading something. We all make mistakes, but there have been a few more lately. You all clearly know BASIC English grammar, but it wouldn't hurt to scan over posts and make a couple of changes now and then. :)
While I share your frustration, since you bring it up, I must ask you whether someone's confusing "your" and "you're" is actually an error in grammar or spelling.
Just asking.

1. Salt must not be utilized which comprise sodium which can additionally harm your kidney. Food items like cakes, biscuits, cheese etcetera along with the bakery manufactured details that have sodium should be used at very low quantity.
five. Phosphorous is an additional mineral of renal diet. Rice, pasta, cereal, and so on have very low phosphorous so these is usually taken.

Hello! First of all, your guide is fantastic, and for the most part worked perfectly for me. The only issue I'm having is that my sprite isn't showing up correctly once actually embedded into the game. I followed your guide exactly, although I did notice one thing that I seemingly "did not have to do". The section using IrfanView, the background color is already the first color in the pallet so I don't have to do any color swapping. I'm not sure if that is why I am having this bug...Anyways. I'm attaching a screen shot that includes the test sprite I am trying to use, and what is actually showing up in the game. Hopefully you can help!

The Middle Ground: Indians, Empires, and Republics in the Great Lakes Region, 1650–1815
ISBN13:by Richard White
Cambridge University Press
Questions About This Book?
What version or edition is this?
This is the 2nd edition with a publication date of 11/1/2010.
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.
An acclaimed book and widely acknowledged classic, The Middle Ground steps outside the simple stories of Indian-white relations stories of conquest and assimilation and stories of cultural persistence. It is, instead, about a search for accommodation and common meaning. It tells how Europeans and Indians met, regarding each other as alien, as other, as virtually nonhuman, and how between 1650 and 1815 they constructed a common, mutually comprehensible world in the region around the Great Lakes that the French called pays d'en haut. Here the older worlds of the Algonquians and of various Europeans overlapped, and their mixture created new systems of meaning and of exchange. Finally, the book tells of the breakdown of accommodation and common meanings and the re-creation of the Indians as alien and exotic. First published in 1991, the 20th anniversary edition includes a new preface by the author examining the impact and legacy of this study.

UR, the amount of character you have been banning is despicable. I joined this game in 2009 and I had nothing. To earn clintz, you need good cards. If you don't have connections; you must invest. I have invested over 400 US dollars in credits and gotten packs- and for what?! ANY of the good cards I can use have been banned because people complain about them. And it's not so much that these cards get banned because they are unfair; players complain about these specific cards because it hurts their specific decks in which they use to get to the top of Elo. Other players get upset because either they can never beat them (simply because they have a poor ethic in pill usage) or simply because they can't afford it and see it is easier to complain about a card and have it banned than to learn how to play the game well. From packs, I have recieved more than 900 cards from packs and only a good chunk of them were good cards that could aid me in Elo. And little by little, ALL of them have been banned. But you guys don't ban the Cr's such as Kerozinn or Marlysa that are not easily obtained and only FEW players have the resources to obtain? COME ON! Admins are supposed to be looking out for the best interests of ALL the players; not just their own. Since when do beginners use DJ Korr Cr or General Cr??? THEY DON'T. But when they are able to work for months playing daily tournaments and busting their *** trying to save up enough clintz, then they actually buy the cards they need to get better scores in Elo and daily tournaments, you guys will ban those cards? Then what happens? Their entire decks become useless! Stop these ridiculous bans and allow the game to be played the way it was supposed to be played from the start: EQUALLY!!!!!
Vryer's Experiment Log:
Experiment #209
Though we(the GHEIST) relocate to my different bases from time to time, our positions are easily compromised and located. I mean, even though we are a secret crime organization, we're not that hard to locate. And as such, we have many (unwanted) visitors who seem to pop out of nowhere. As such, this presented a problem, and Toro ordered me to correct at once. I thought and thought of a way to come up with an experiment of sorts, until I spotted a spider crawling around on one of the pipes in our base. And that was when I had come up with the perfect idea.
After months of experimenting, tinkering, and building, I finally presented my idea to Toro. Arkn, a metallic spider with metal legs controlled by a rat's brain, with missiles as an added bonus. As I programmed them, I gave them all one simple mission: to search and destroy any intruders trying to sneak into the base. Ruthless, they do not hesitate to wipe out anyone they conceive as an enemy. Toro was very pleased.
Much to my pleasure, the Arkn have done a magnificent job guarding the base as the number of intruders have rapidly decreased. And even if they are destroyed(which sometimes they are), they can be easily replaced with many materials lying around the base. After all, supplies isn't that hard to come by. I truly am impressed with my invention. Sometimes, I amaze myself.

Arkn - "Low Pill "
Ability: subtracts 10 points from your Opp's attack to a minimum of 5.
+ -10 attack is wonderful in low pill battles.
+ 4 damge is very decent for a 2*
+ 2* is easy to fit into a deck
- 5 Power is low.
- SoA cards strip him of his potential.
- Some prefer Z3r0 D34d and his more stable power.
----5--- Power
---5---- Damage
------7- Ability
------7- Ability/bonus synergy
Overall: 8/10
Arkn is wonderful in the correct context. In low pill battles favourite artificial arachnid cleans up with his deadly -10attack. Unopposed and coupled with his clan bonus, Arkn can tear apart low pill defenses.
The real value of Arkn is his 4 damage. That's definitely a worry enough to want to stop. Throw him out with only a couple of pillz and many 8 star cards are going to need to pill one more to beat him. This makes using him as a no pill bluff very effective.
Also, because of his low power and weakness in higher pill situations, putting a few more pillz than normal into Arkn can sometimes work in your favour as your Opp will calculate the more obvious 2 pill cover. And even if you overpill a little too much, you still hit with 4 damge.
Arkn's minimum of 5 is often looked upon as a negative, however, as his power matches the minimum, his 2* count means that he'll almost always win in a stalemate attack situation.
Arkn is best suited to low pill scrims and bluff tactics, but he has the damage potential to risk higher pill investments (especially later in the game).
My issue with his ban is that it came out of nowhere. Players never voted to kick him out. I've never even played against him (though I played the card, hence my complaints.) It was never on the staff ban list until a week ago, and then suddenly he was perma-banned. I play GEIST and Nightmares, and it made sense to see, say, Toro and Ghumbo take the hit; they've been on those staff lists quite often, and it seems like the staff was preparing to axe them. But Arkn is just a rat brain in a jar that may or may not be any better than Z4r0 D34d, and was almost always less expensive.
I'm not going to beg for Arkn to be unbanned. I'd just like some good reasons why they did it so suddenly.

Plumes of Martian Methane Hint at Possible Underground Microbial Life: But Emissions Could Just Be Signs of Geochemical Processes
Cowen, Ron, Science News
No one is suggesting that Mars has flatulent cows, but a new study shows that the Red Planet, like Earth, spews methane. Researchers say it's possible that the gas could be generated by bacteria living beneath the Martian surface.
The methane emissions, observed over three Mars years (seven Earth years), come from three locations and vary with the seasons--strongest in Martian summer and weakest in winter, Mike Mumma of NASA's Goddard Space Flight Center in Greenbelt, Md., and his colleagues report online January 15 in Science.
Methane is a fragile compound, and the variations in its concentration indicate that methane in the Martian atmosphere lasts for less than one Earth year and is constantly being replenished, Mumma says. That suggests that even if the planet isn't biologically active, some unknown geological process is very much alive, continually releasing methane into the air.
To detect the methane, Mumma and colleagues monitored Mars from Earth, using three ground-based spectrometers to spread infrared light into its component wavelengths. Using a new algorithm that removed extraneous signals from Earth's atmosphere, the team detected three absorption features that conclusively prove the presence of methane plumes on Mars.
"Mumma and his team have been painstakingly careful," comments astrobiologist Christopher Chyba of Princeton University. "The reward is that we have observations of methane that show variations over season and by location."
The European Space Agency's orbiting Mars Express had previously found hints of methane, but the craft's spectrometer isn't sensitive enough to make a definitive measurement, says Jack Mustard of Brown University in Providence, R.I.
In 2003, when the observations began, one of the plumes released about 19,000 metric tons of methane. The plumes were detected over locales that show either evidence of ancient ground ice or the flow of liquid water, including the Nili Fossae region, an area east of Arabia Terra and the southeast quadrant of an ancient volcano called Syrtis Major.
Another team recently reported that Nili Fossae contains carbonates, which form only when liquid water is present. …

Out of the Box at the Queensland Performing Arts Centre is a biennial cultural and arts event for children aged eight years and under. Early childhood students volunteer at the festival and are assessed on their ability to engage with children in various community arts activities. Students practise what they learn in class while working with children in a fun, non-traditional environment. In alternate years early childhood students host a day of activities for young children at QUT.
You can apply for opportunities to gain valuable experience of education systems in other countries. For example, a group of education students spent two weeks in Malaysia. The students attended classes with Malaysian student teachers and visited a number of schools. They taught a 30-minute lesson about Australia using Australian storybooks, which were donated to the schools. In recent years QUT has also offered similar experiences in Bhutan and the USA.
As an early childhood specialist, you can make a significant and lasting difference to the life of a child. Each day in early childhood brings new challenges and opportunities to assist with a child's growth and love of learning.
Career opportunities in early childhood education are increasing and experts who can design early childhood programs and engage younger children in learning are expected to be in demand. At QUT we combine outstanding academic programs with the latest knowledge gained through leading research. You will be supported by specialist early childhood academics and you will experience unique, real-world opportunities that prepare you to teach in early childhood.
This course is designed to prepare you with the knowledge and experience to manage learning programs for students in a range of educational settings and to cater for the diverse needs of students.
QUT organises field experience placements to give you the opportunity to work in real school classrooms, kindergartens and early childhood settings, supervised by practising professional educators. At QUT you can also take advantage of opportunities to gain extra experience.
As early childhood specialists, graduates are prepared to work as qualified teachers in early childhood education and care settings, kindergarten, and Prep to Year 3 in primary school. Your qualification can also allow you to work in other locations within Australia and overseas.
This course meets professional teaching standards for the Australian Institute for Teaching and School Leadership, and Queensland College of Teachers and graduates are eligible to apply for teacher registration. Graduates are also recognised as qualified early childhood teachers under the Australian Children's Education and Care Quality Authority framework.
Students admitted with a completed Diploma of Early Childhood Education and Care, or an equivalent accredited qualification, will be automatically granted credit (advanced standing) of 96 credit points.

Khalid Mouaouya, Associate Professor
Khalid Mouaouya is Vaughn College's ambassador of math.
An associate professor in the engineering and technology department, he spreads the good word of mathematics to students all across the campus. Potential engineers, pilots, even would-be air traffic controllers ... they all need a solid foundation in this most intimidating academic discipline.
"If you're intimidated by math, it could be from the people who taught it to you," Mouaouya says. "You have to have the right delivery system. If you do, you will be eager to learn more."
A native of Morocco who came to the United States from Belgium, Mouaouya is one of several faculty members to have earned a bachelor's degree from Vaughn College or one of its ancestors.
He has done graduate work at Manhattan College and Columbia University in engineering, but remains one of Vaughn College's most astute mathematics experts.
In fact, each semester his students get a good dose of math, which Mouaouya believes is at the heart of any engineering curriculum.
"Not everyone who walks the earth will be an engineer," he says. "But for those who want to be an engineer, mathematics is the key. It makes the topic you are studying so much easier."
Of course, that often means demystifying math to those who have been intimidated by numbers, equations and the like. Again, Mouaouya says it's all in how it's delivered.
"Mathematics is an art," Mouaouya says. "If you can present a math equation visually, that's how people can get drawn into it."
Mouaouya has no problem drawing students into his classes; he is one of the most popular engineering faculty members on campus. He relates to his students evenhandedly, balancing the needs of gifted students with those who might struggle more.
"You always have to be aware of what the students need," he says. "You treat everyone equally and if they need help, you help them."

Criminal psychology, and its relationship to the practice of law, has become a topic of major significance over the last three decades. Psychologists play a key role in modern criminal investigation and are central to crime reduction measures such as offender profiling, delinquency prevention and tackling fear of crime. Contributors from North America, Europe and Australia examine this link, both adding to and drawing upon the pool of recent theory construction and empirical work in the following areas: * causes and prevention of offending * studies of crime and offenders * the victim's perspective * witnesses and testimony * studies of legal processes. These issues are studied from a 'local' perspective that recognises not only the need for cross-national comparative research, but also the generation of a corpus of scientific knowledge more representative of the complexity of criminal and legal investigation today.

One of the nation's largest office supply retailers plans to close dozens of stores.
Staples has announced that it will close 225 stores in North America by the end of 2014.
With nearly half of all sales generated online, and increased overhead costs, the big box store is seeking to aggressively cut costs.
Staples has 2,200 locations worldwide with 1,500 in the United States.
It is still unclear how many jobs may be lost or exactly which locations will be closed.
Experts say the recession has caused added stress to the industry, which is now under pressure from discount stores and online retailers.

Knowledge Accumulation and Industry Evolution by Mariana Mazzucato
Book DescriptionWritten by internationally acclaimed experts in the economics of innovation, this volume examines how the biotechnology and pharmaceutical sector is affected by the dynamics of innovation, institutions, and public policy. It contributes both theoretically and empirically to the increasingly influential Schumpetarian framework in industrial economics, which places innovation at the centre of the analysis of competition. Both quantitative and qualitative studies are included, and this varied perspective adds to the richness of the volume's insights. The contributors explore different ideas regarding the historical evolution of technology in the sector, and how firms and industry structure have co-evolved with innovation dynamics. Important policy questions are considered regarding the future of innovation in this sector and its impact on the economy.

How to Sell Diamond Rings
Diamonds are really expensive to buy and easy to sell if you find the right buyers. You can either sell the diamond itself or sell the diamond ring. However diamond rings are frequently used as engagement rings and most of the couples want to buy brand new diamond rings instead of a used diamond rings, so if the diamond rings are brand new, it will be 10 times more easier to sell than the second hand diamond rings.

1Make sure that your diamond rings look good, cleaned and eye-catching. Clean the rings each time you show them to customers.
2Don't be afraid to talk to the customers and if you see someone wondering and confused in front of the diamonds, be active and ask them what sort of rings they are looking for and say as much as advantages as you can and point out only a little disadvantages. Remember, always tell them that they can sell it in a better price after a few years.
4If you have friends that are dating, tell them you are selling the diamond rings and make sure to give them discounts, but not more than 10%. If they feel the service is good, they might introduce you to their friends and their friends will introduce you to more friends

Tian Long Ba Bu is a wuxia novel written by Jin Yong (Louis Cha). It was first published in September 3, 1963 on the Ming Pao newspapers in Hong Kong and Nanyang Siang Pau in Singapore. The novel became very famous and adapted into many Hong Kong and Mainland China movie and television series. The first television adaptation was 50 episodes produced by TVB, Demi-Gods and Semi-Devils (1982), and most famous Qiao Feng character was played by TVB actor Felix Wong.
Tian Long Ba Bu literally means 'The Deva, the Nāga, the Eight Sections', the major characters in the novel are based on the eight races of non-human entities described in Hindu-Buddhist cosmology, who are collectively known in Chinese as the Tian Long Ba Bu. The eight races are Deva, Nāga, Yaksha, Asura, Garuda, Kinnara, Gandharva and Mahoraga. The main focus of this novel is that Jin Yong incorporates Buddhist concepts with historical events. He is a very profound writer with a deep love for Chinese culture and history. Some real historical figure in this series is Duan Yu who was the 16th emperor of the kingdom of Dali between 1108 and 1147. Duan Yu's father, Duan Zhengchun, who abdicated and became a monk in 1108. Duan Yu succeeded his father as the emperor of Dali and renamed himself Duan Zhengyan.
Many of his famous novels include The Condor Heroes Trilogy, Fox Volant of the Snowy Mountain, Laughing in the Wind , and Demi-Gods Semi Devils. Jin Yong is one of the most prolific wuxia writer ever in history! and if not for him we would have not many wuxia dramas available today. This is one of Jin Yong greatest novel, so consider buying the DVDs for your collection.
If you have never seen Wallace Chung playing as the villain watch him in Nu Shui Han 2004. If you are familiar with Demi-Gods & Semi-Devil you will remember the part where Qiao Feng is met with Madam Ma (Viann Zhang) who try to seduce him.

Soldier Killed Near Hebron Hit by IDF Bullet, Palestinian Car
Unclear whether Staff Sgt. Eyal died from Palestinian cab's impact or gunshot wound to head.
The Israel Defense Forces said Tuesday that a reserve soldier killed Monday night at a roadblock near Hebron was hit both by a vehicle driven by a Palestinian taxi driver and a bullet from a gun belonging to one of his comrades.
An investigation showed that Staff Sergeant Tziki Eyal, 23, from Mazkeret Batya, had been struck in the head by an IDF bullet, although it is not clear whether he died from the gunshot wound or from being hit by the car.
The IDF is still investigating whether the driver, 30-year-old Iyad Dwek, had intended to kill Eyal or whether it was an accident.
Dwek was shot dead by other IDF soldiers at the roadblock. A preliminary investigation revealed that he had no ties to terror organizations, and no weapons were found in his car.
Prior to the incident, there had been no Israeli deaths in the territories for three months.
The incident took place close to 10 P.M. Monday night, at the Halhoul bridge. An armored corps unit on reserve duty put up a surprise roadblock on the bridge, which is used by Palestinian traffic. The roadblock was set up after soldiers at the nearby "pillbox" position reported hearing shots. The soldiers' intention was to identify the men who had opened fire.
The road below the bridge is used by settlers.
The reservists at the roadblock reported that the taxi was seen approaching, and a soldier stepped out to flag down the driver, who was alone, for inspection.
At first the driver slowed, but suddenly sped up and drove straight at the soldier, running him over and critically injuring him. The other soldiers then opened fire at the driver, who died instantly. An ambulance crew called to the site was unable to save the injured soldier.
The IDF has been on high alert in the vicinity of Hebron because thousands of Jews had been expected to visit the Tomb of the Patriarchs on Tuesday.
The IDF sent reinforcements to the area and together with the Shin Bet security force immediately began checking the background of the driver to establish whether it was likely that he had been involved in a terrorist act, as appeared from the incident.
They are also investigating other possibilities, such as that the driver did not see the soldiers in the dark, or was trying to avoid being checked for other reasons.

Press Release 11-190 Something Odd Is Happening With Namibia's Weather
Southwestern African country is no arid desert--this year
View photo gallery on Namibia's rivers.
Credit and Larger Version
September 13, 2011
Something's up with the weather in Namibia, say geoscientists Kyle Nichols of Skidmore College in Saratoga Springs, N.Y., and Paul Bierman of the University of Vermont in Burlington, Vt.
Nichols and Bierman should know. They're just back from the western mountains and coastal plain of this sparsely populated African country.
Usually, western Namibia is a dusty place where the stream beds are sand and the "lakes" are nothing more than flats of dried mud.
Not now.
This year, rivers with names like Swakop and Omaruru and Kuiseb flowed all the way to the sea--something they don't do often, "maybe once a decade," says Bierman.
The rivers didn't just flow for a day or two, Nichols and Bierman say, they ran from the desert to the ocean for weeks on end.
"There was so much water," says Bierman, "that people went swimming, they went tubing, and the desert turned green around rivers carrying so much sediment they were chocolate-brown."
The rains were unprecedented in both their intensity and duration. "There's nothing like this widespread, heavy rain in the historic record," says Nichols.
The two geoscientists have been working for more than a decade in Namibia, collecting samples of rock and river sediment and bringing them back for analysis at the University of Vermont (see Cosmogenic Nuclide Laboratory and Geomorphology Research Group's website).
Their goal is to understand how quickly Namibia's arid lands are eroding, "both the spectacular bedrock outcrops, and the landscape's drainage basins as a whole," says Nichols.
After the recent Namibian rains, the U.S. National Science Foundation (NSF) awarded Nichols and Bierman a rapid response grant to travel quickly back to the country last month.
There they collected river sediment and rock at many of the sites they had sampled in 1997, 2001 and 2010.
Their hope is to discover whether sediment carried by rivers in such "mega-floods" is coming from sources that are the same as those when sediment is transported by more "normal" events.
They work with collaborators at the Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory, counting rare isotopes, or sub-types, of elements formed in the mineral quartz. The results provide valuable information about the samples.
"The research focuses on the use of isotopes of the chemical elements beryllium, cesium and lead to measure erosion rates and determine sediment sources," says Paul Cutler, program director in NSF's Division of Earth Sciences, which awarded the grant.
"Techniques using these isotopes have become increasingly popular," says Cutler, "as ways of finding out the sources and ages of sediments and other rock deposits."
Bierman says that "there has been little testing of a fundamental aspect of the method, however--the similarity of isotope abundance over time. In Namibia we now have huge run-off and a chance to test this assumption of consistency."
It will be months before the geologists have the first results, but the effects of the torrential rains and floods in Namibia in early 2011 are clearly evident, they say.
Grass covers what should be barren stony desert, and there is water in streams, something Nichols and Bierman haven't seen before.
Namibia's rains stopped months ago, but the groundwater table is so high that there is still flow in some streams and rivers.
Almost every river crossing shows the effects--logs, mud and bridges torn asunder. In some streams, the scientists saw minnows and frogs stranded in pools. "They must have been delivered during the flood," says Bierman.
In a few places, water, road damage and stream beds laden with sediment kept the researchers from collecting samples from the exact same places as in previous years.
"The riverbed four-by-four truck tracks we needed to get to sample sites were sometimes gone," says Bierman, "replaced by truck-sucking mud and soft sand."
For 68 of 82 original sample sites, with the help of a GPS and maps and field notes, the scientists collected sand from within just a few meters of the original samples.
Their typical days involved getting up with the sun, says Nichols, eating a quick breakfast at a lodge, programming the GPS with the day's route, and driving off in their diesel four-by-four truck.
One day they left the lodge at 7 a.m., drove 700 or more kilometers, and finally collected their last samples using headlamps just before 7 p.m. Then, by dark of night across deserted Namib "roads," they drove 170 kilometers back to the lodge.
"As we were packing samples to ship home from Windhoek, Namibia's capital," says Bierman, "we watched the predictions as Hurricane Irene marched up the eastern U.S."
By the time Bierman had travelled 36 hours and arrived home in Vermont, and Nichols back in upstate N.Y., the region was reeling from the worst flooding since the epic floods of November, 1927.
"This could all be coincidence, but it's hard not to think that something's up with the weather," says Bierman. "A warming Earth equals a more intense hydrologic cycle, with repercussions for erosion rates, sediment redistribution and landscape evolution."
The riverbeds of western Namibia, land of arid deserts, are awash in water.
At least for now.

Points positifs: la localisation, le propriétaire est très serviable et donne de bon conseil de visite
Points négatifs: quartier assez bruyant et populaire, rester vigilant quand même, pas assez de vaisselle, et la douche est un peu bizarre.
Très bien accueilli par Serkan qui fait son possible pour nous faciliter la vie. Petit appartement fonctionnel, très bien situé.
Room in a very good location. Dirty cupboards, ants and leaking water in the toilet are the main drawbacks of this place. Nice host.
Serkan was very nice.
The apartment was big enough - but it could have been more clean when it comes to the inside of the cupboards in the kitchen. And it was not that near to the centre of the old village as it was supposed to be. There was no curtain in the bathroom (for shower).
The owner is very helpful and welcoming. Very good value for money. We stayed as a family and the building is pretty quiet. I really advice this property.
Serkan thank you.
Le propriétaire est très serviable et accueillant. Très bon rapport qualité prix. Nous avons séjourné en famille et l'immeuble est assez calme. Je conseil vraiment cette location.
Merci Serkan.
