How to Get in Shape 7 Minutes at a Time October 06 2014
It is difficult to budget time to a long workout or a trip to the gym each day. For people that are looking for a quick workout that they can do at home, High Intensity Interval Training (HIIT) can be a great option. HIIT is a popular form of exercise which pushes the body to maximum effort to achieve muscle fatigue and maximum oxygen use in a quick burst. Many popular HIIT workouts are designed to be completed in only 7 minutes. The great thing about these workouts is that users can choose to complete as many rounds as they want and no equipment is necessary. These workouts can be completed at any time, anywhere. This allows users to fit in a workout to even the busiest of schedules. One of the more popular workouts goes as follows:
The routine involves the following twelve exercises performed for 30 seconds each with 10-second rest/transition periods before the next move:
- Jumping jacks
- Wall sit
- Push-up
- Abdominal crunch
- Step-up onto chair
- Squat
- Triceps dip on chair
- Plank
- High knees/running in place
- Lunge
- Push up and rotation
- Side plank
Photo by Tallia22
This routine only takes 7 minutes to complete and intensity can be increased by performing more repetitions of some of the exercises in each time interval.
While you can track the time on your own. There are also free apps that help you keep track of time and lets you know which exercise is up next.
One app we have tested is for Android devices. It is called 7 Minute Workout and is available on the Google Play store: here
Enjoy your workout and let us know what you think!

Where to Rent Kayaks and Paddle Boards in Seattle September 05 2014
"My escape is to just get in a boat and disappear on the water." - Carl Hiaasen
Escape to the world of nautical adventures, calm morning waters, and the sticky salty air by testing your hand at Kayaking or chartering a boat. In a day where electronics, cellphones, and all things that go beep in the night take over our lives, immersing yourself in natural can be one of the most liberating experiences. Here in Seattle, there are a number of ways that you can become involved in boating.
Whether you are looking to Kayak, paddle board, surf board, or canoe, make sure you are prepared. JoeyBra is the perfect accessory to take with you when you are hitting the high seas. While we don't recommend putting items in the pocket that are water-senstitive and then going swimming, the pockets will keep valuables safe from gentle splashes, misting, and salt.

Review of Hiking Mt. Rainier's Skyline Trail August 27 2014
On August 18th, we hiked Mt. Rainier's Skyline Trail. Waking up at dawn to feel the warm glow of summer on your cheeks has to be one of the best feelings in the world. We stumbled out of Seattle at about 6:30am and cruised down I-5 for a few hours. Upon reaching the Mt. Rainier National Park, we paid for entrance ($15 for a day pass), and made our way to Paradise.
The resort and hotel are simply spectacular. While we didn't stay overnight, I would highly recommend booking a room for a few days so that you can check out all of the beautiful hikes in the area. One of the biggest challenges was actually selecting which hike we wanted to go on.
After reading hundreds of reviews, we decided to do Mt. Rainier's Skyline Trail which promises spectacular views, glorious wild flowers, mounds of snow, and an aerobic exercise that will get your heart pumping. We ended up having two take two trails to get to the start of Skyline Trail because the direct route was under construction. Most online sources note that the trail is about 6 miles round trip.
We started off our hike with two water bottles, a chocolate bar, sandwiches, and a small daypack to carry a first-aide kit and wind breakers. Most hikers recommend going around the loop clockwise. I would highly suggest this route as well. On our way up, we wandered though fields of wild flowers that smelled amazing. Within minutes we were both joking that we needed to produce a perfume that captured the Pacific NW wild flower scent. In August, the Lupine and Indian Paint brush are in full blossom. Some of the other flowers were a bit past their prime, but you will not be disappointed. We also spotted Eagles and a very relaxed looking Marmot.
When going clockwise, the path is very well maintained. The steep portions are punctuated with steps, so the hike is a bit less tough. Portions of the trail were wet due to snow melt, so be cautioned that it can get a bit slippery. The first vantage point is the Panoramic view spot. At this segment of the trail you can choose to either do the high skyline or continue along the main Skyline trail. We opted to hike up to a second look-out and snap a few photos before heading down the main Skyline trail. I must note that we selected this route because we love snow. The other route is probably safer and offers more expansive views, but we just couldn't help ourselves when we saw a giant snow field. We sloshed our way through the snow, which is pretty slippery in August, until we were on dry land again. The path meanders through wild flower fields, mossy tundras, and the alpine trees. After hiking a few miles on flat ground, there were two options 1) head directly back down to Paradise or 2) continue on a second part of the loop to Paradise. We opted for #2 and did a bit of trail running.
It's hot on the mountain. We were both scorched by the time we got back to the car, even with sunscreen. I would highly suggest bringing extra water and sunscreen. At the very end of the hike, we ran into a section of the trail that is filled with tourists. There is a waterfall and a few bridges, but it was packed. We decided to run through the crowds so that we could skip the traffic.
Overall, we hiked about 8 miles. It took us about 2.5 hours, and it was an incredible adventure! I would highly recommend the Skyline Trail at Mt. Rainier.
Have a safe and exciting hike!

The NW Women's Show May 01 2014
A few weeks ago, Kyle and I had the privilege of attending Seattle's NW Women's Show. We were both thrilled to be vendors at a show that was filled with energy, new products, and attendees from all over Washington state. The show was a place of discovery, where women could find products that were inventive and new to the market.
Putting together a booth for a trade-show is a ton of work. Kyle and I designed nearly everything you see below. Our booth featured informational posters, clean lighting to make our product pop, adorable chest of drawers to hold all of our product, and even a wood floor.
In addition, NW Women's Show offered an incredible array of shows and seminars. Everything from business 101 to how to sell soap. My favorite part of the show had to be the Drag Show, featuring the cast from Le Faux. The costumes were incredible, the music was vivacious, and the audience was on their feet with excitement. I highly recommend checking out the Le Faux show if you were unable to attend the NW Women's Show. I've included a few snapshots of the excitement below:
Here are a few quick tips for making the most out of the NW Women's Show:
- Get there early - Make sure that you plan your schedule so that you can arrive early. There are events throughout the day that you don't want to miss.
- Make a budget - Before you attend the show, make yourself a little budget for splurges. This show has all kinds of neat products, food items, services, and even places to stay. Give yourself a budget so that you can feel free to treat yourself without over indulging.
- Come back on Sunday - Was there an item that you really wanted, but weren't sure about? Come back on Sunday to revisit the vendors to learn more. The second reason to come back on Sunday is to check out the Salvation Army section. They were offering 50% off all products, including designer purses! Oh-la-la!
FDA clears up health concerns about cell phones April 28 2012
Do cell phones pose a health hazard?
Many people are concerned that cell phone radiation will cause cancer or other serious health hazards. The weight of scientific evidence has not linked cell phones with any health problems.
Cell phones emit low levels of radiofrequency energy (RF). Over the past 15 years, scientists have conducted hundreds of studies looking at the biological effects of the radiofrequency energy emitted by cell phones. While some researchers have reported biological changes associated with RF energy, these studies have failed to be replicated. The majority of studies published have failed to show an association between exposure to radiofrequency from a cell phone and health problems.
The low levels of RF cell phones emit while in use are in the microwave frequency range. They also emit RF at substantially reduced time intervals when in the stand-by mode. Whereas high levels of RF can produce health effects (by heating tissue), exposure to low level RF that does not produce heating effects causes no known adverse health effects.
The biological effects of radiofrequency energy should not be confused with the effects from other types of electromagnetic energy.
Very high levels of electromagnetic energy, such as is found in X-rays and gamma rays can ionize biological tissues. Ionization is a process where electrons are stripped away from their normal locations in atoms and molecules. It can permanently damage biological tissues including DNA, the genetic material.
The energy levels associated with radiofrequency energy, including both radio waves and microwaves, are not great enough to cause the ionization of atoms and molecules. Therefore, RF energy is a type of non-ionizing radiation. Other types of non-ionizing radiation include visible light, infrared radiation (heat) and other forms of electromagnetic radiation with relatively low frequencies.
While RF energy doesn't ionize particles, large amounts can increase body temperatures and cause tissue damage. Two areas of the body, the eyes and the testes, are particularly vulnerable to RF heating because there is relatively little blood flow in them to carry away excess heat.

Nikon Coolpix S1 review
Mark Peters : May 20th 2005 - 01:00 CET
Nikon Coolpix S1 digital camera review :
Nikon introduced a small digital design camera in the first quarter of this year: the Nikon Coolpix S1. This model is completely newly developed and has a very classy appearance. The Nikon S1 is available in the colours Pure Silver and Ebony Black. The material used for the housing of the camera is aluminium and is beautifully finished. The new Nikon Coolpix S1 has a very compact size and is ultra flat with only 19.7 mm. Despite its slim body, the camera is equipped with a 3x optical zoom lens that doesn't extend, like we have seen on other thin digital cameras. This means we find an internal zoom lens with a 3x optical range on this Nikon digital camera.
Nikon Coolpix S1 - Stylish design
I have to admit that it was love at first sight when I received the black version of the Nikon S1, because of its beautiful design. We were already impressed by the stylish Fujifilm FinePix Z1, but the Nikon Coolpix S1 adds a little something. The designer team of Nikon has really done a wonderful job, they have worked to the utmost to design a real eye-catcher and they did it! Beautifully curved lines, a sleek ebony black aluminium housing with nicely hidden covers, impressive!
Nikon S1 digital camera - User friendly
With the design of the Nikon Coolpix S1, Nikon entered the world of design again. And the emphasis on user friendliness and the user's convenience completes it. The Nikon Coolpix S1 is a suitable digital camera for those who want to take pictures in an easy way, and who want to take a camera with them everywhere.
Nikon S1 camera - D-Lighting technology
Despite the fact that the Nikon Coolpix S1 is mainly based on complete automatic operation, there are still some settings possible with which you can influence the end result. At first, when mentioning settings, you will think of aperture, shutter speeds, white balance etc. But Nikon tried something different, namely in-the-camera image editing by software. The exclusive Nikon D-Lighting technology is integrated in the S1 offering great ease of use. How often does it happen that an image is taken with shaded areas and bright areas in the same picture? D-Lighting function will correct these images automatically.

ARLIE D. QUIGLEY, PETITIONER,v.CALIFORNIA BOARD OF PAROLE AND HEARINGS, ET AL., RESPONDENTS.
Petitioner, a state prisoner proceeding pro se, has filed an application for a writ of habeas corpus pursuant to 28 U.S.C. § 2254 together with a request to proceed in forma pauperis pursuant to 28 U.S.C. § 1915. Petitioner has submitted a declaration that makes the showing required by § 1915(a). Accordingly, the request to proceed in forma pauperis will be granted.
28 U.S.C. § 1915(a).
The exhaustion of state court remedies is a prerequisite to the granting of a petition for writ of habeas corpus. 28 U.S.C. § 2254(b)(1). A petitioner satisfies the exhaustion requirement by providing the highest state court with a full and fair opportunity to consider all claims before presenting them to the federal court. Picard v. Connor, 404 U.S. 270, 276 (1971); Middleton v. Cupp, 768 F.2d 1083, 1086 (9th Cir.), cert. denied, 478 U.S. 1021 (1986).
After reviewing the petition for habeas corpus, the court finds that petitioner has failed to exhaust state court remedies. The claims have not been presented to the California Supreme Court. Further, there is no allegation that state court remedies are no longer available to petitioner. Accordingly, the petition should be dismissed without prejudice.*fn1 The court notes that petitioner has filed a motion in which he asks that this matter be stayed so that petitioner can exhaust state court remedies. However, the court cannot stay a petition containing only unexhausted claims. See Raspberry v. Garcia, 448 F.3d 1150, 1154 (9th Cir. 2006) (district courts lack discretion to stay petitions containing only unexhausted claims); Jimenez v. Rice, 273 F.3d 478, 481 (2001) (district court obligated to dismiss petition containing only unexhausted claims).
Good cause appearing, IT IS HEREBY ORDERED that:
1. Petitioner is granted leave to proceed in forma pauperis (docket no. 7);
2. Petitioner's request for a stay (docket no. 8) is denied;
2. The Clerk of the Court is directed to assign a United States District Judge to this case; and
3. The Clerk of the Court is directed to serve a copy of these findings and recommendations together with a copy of the petition filed in the instant case on the Attorney General of the State of California.
IT IS HEREBY RECOMMENDED that petitioner's application for a writ of habeas corpus be dismissed for failure to exhaust state remedies.
These findings and recommendations will be submitted to the United States District Judge assigned to this case, pursuant to the provisions of 28 U.S.C. § 636(b)(l). Within twenty days after being served with these findings and recommendations, petitioner may file written objections with the court. The document should be captioned "Objections to Findings and Recommendations." Petitioner is advised that failure to file objections within the specified time may waive the right to appeal the District Court's order. Martinez v. Ylst, 951 F.2d 1153 (9th Cir. 1991).

Don Carlos 2 Note Long Shank Rhodesian Pipe * Unsmoked * Coopersark No Reserve:
THIS IS A (10)TEN-DAY(10), , AND INTERNATIONAL COLLECTIBLE BRIAR PIPE sale.PLEASE CLICK HERE TO VIEW ALL OF THE OTHER BEAUTIFUL, NEW, OR FULLY RESTORED AND RECONDITIONED HIGH GRADE COLLECTIBLE PIPES THAT I HAVE LISTED FOR sale THIS WEEK ON !
Bruto Sordini was born in the small village of Cagli, Italy, where his world-famous Don Carlos pipes are currently being made. He's in his mid-forties, married with three children. He first got into pipe making about 25 years ago. At that time, he was studying law, but slowly and surely he developed a passion for the artistry of making a work of art out of a piece of wood. After having worked for years and years for major pipe making establishments in the area of Pesaro, Bruto decided to get more independent, but not before spending time carving for his long-time close friend Giancarlo Guidi in the early days of Ser Jacopo. After a few years, Bruto took off and started the Don Carlos Pipe Company.
Don Carlos pipes are completely hand crafted from briar wood which has been carefully chosen and seasoned outdoors. Bruto seasons his own briar in the grounds of his home and carves every pipe himself. The classic and free form shapes are always custom originals and bear homage to Brutos' high regard of a master Italian pipe maker from the early 1900's. Bruto Sordini's beautiful pipes have a huge following in the USA, Germany and in his native Italy. Bruto normally makes 1,500 pipes a year.
In November 2002 Bruto had near fatal motorcycle accident. He has recently returned to making pipes but his output is less than it was. So supplies are limited. He has still not completely healed and may need another operation. This has not diminished his love of pipe making or of opera.About this beautiful Don Carlos pipe: You are offerding on a NEW & UNSMOKED condition hand carved Don Carlos straight grain, "2 Note" graded "Long Shank Rhodesian" shaped pipe. The pipe possesses an elegant sterling silver shank inlay trim band.
The grain that surrounds the bowl is beautiful. This pipe possesses a fantastic hand feel and possesses a nice overall balance, and perfect engineering. A pipe cleaner will effortlessly pass to the bottom of the bowl. That mark that you see on the front of the bowl in the ring was a poiece of wax tat has since been removed.
Here are the dimensions of this gorgeous Don Carlos pipe: The length is about 6.50". The bowl height is about 1.875". The Tobacco chamber is about 0.90" in diameter and tapers down the bowl's 1.70" inner depth. Capacity is similar to that of a Group 6 size Dunhill pipe. The weight of this pipe is 65 grams. The original pipe bag is included.
Once again, this is a (10)TEN-DAY(10) pipe sale. I do not believe in "Reserve" or "Buy it Now" prices. I want the lucky high buyer to own and enjoy smoking this pipe and not have him frustrate himself with offerding on a pipe that is not attainable on a price basis! Just be the high buyer at the close of this sale, and you will win what could again prove to be the best pipe in your collection!
Please read and review my ratings and comments. Check out the "ME" section after my name "coopersark". I think that you will find this information very informative and telling! Please feel free to send me an e-mail with any questions that you may have about this pipe. I want you to offer with the highest of confidence!
The winning buyer will include an additional $10.00 for Priority Mail shipping, tracking, and insurance. (Foreign buyers will include an additional $45.00 for International Insured EXPRESS Mail shipping. Please note that this pipe will travel fully insured with it's full final sale value stated for customs, as per Pay Pal rules. NO EXCEPTIONS!) Thank you for your interest. Please do not forget to check out my other sales! Good Luck and Happy offerding!!!!

Hello! My name is John Snow. My foster parents came about fostering me by chance. My foster dad was working in the yard and a girl walked up and asked if he knew someone that wanted a puppy. She explained that I belonged to a friend and the friend's dad said she couldn't keep me. My foster dad looked in my eyes and knew he had to open his home to me. So here I am.
I fit in quickly with my foster sisters and brothers. I love to play and play and play. My favorite thing to do is give kisses. I'm not really scared of much and I like to show how brave I am all the time. I am working on learning to potty outside only but I am getting better about it every day. I sleep in a crate when my foster parents are away which has made it easier for me to learn to go outside to potty. I feel safe there.
If you are looking for a lot of personality in a small puppy, then I might be your friend! Thanks for considering a rescue dog!
The adoption fee includes vaccinations, bordetella, deworming, rabies, spay/neuter and microchip. There is an additional $10.99 fee for Home Again for a lifetime registration of the microchip. If adopting a puppy, the rabies and spay/neuter will be done at the same time by our vet once they are 4 months old and billed to us. It is against the law in the State of Texas for a rescue not to be sterilized so we have to make sure it gets completed and that we have record of it.

By kdeichsel on November 29, 2016 Dress Color: Ivory
This was my reception dress. It was sexy and flowy and gorgeous. I added a little sparkle to the waist band and felt like a goddess all night. When it arrived, it only needed minor alterations: hemmed by 2 inches, brought up the neckline about 1 inch, and took in the waist band by about 1 inch. I had lost a bit of weight since ordering, but because it was custom, i received full reimbursement for my alterations. For canadian buyers, please be aware that customs will run you about $30 - 35; however, for the dress, shipping cost, customs, and added embellishment, this dress cost me about $275 canadian dollars. I felt like a million. It also shipped incredibly quickly (under 3 weeks) and was constructed beautifully. Thank you for this amazing service!!! my only warning - ivory was a lot whiter than expected. My fascinator and veil is in ivory but the dress looks stark white in comparison. Perhaps choose the champagne or blush colour instead.
By Kvoigt88 on November 28, 2016 Dress Color: Ivory
Since my husband and I eloped last October, I ordered this dress to wear for the reception we held on our one year anniversary! Although it was listed as a bridesmaid dress, it was just the style I was looking for - light and comfortable material with relaxed sheer sleeves and knee length. I ordered it in the ivory which was absolutely perfect and the A10 size fit my 6ft tall body just right. I added a brown ribbon to the waist to give it just a pop of color. We had our reception at a roller rink so when my husband and I did our skate dance together, I felt so graceful and elegant as my dress was flowing while we glided. It was very comfortable and easy to skate in and I never worried that it was too short - I felt like a classy roller skating goddess and the amount of compliments I received were overwhelming! No complaints at all, I loved this dress very much and I'm incredibly glad I stumbled across it to wear for our special celebration! :)
By Shanda1182 on November 28, 2016 Dress Color: Grape
The dress option size ran larger than expected. I did have to see a seamstress, in which I added a few more inches for the heels in which I did not need to do because the dress was long enough. It was suggested by the seamstress to hem the dress so if I decided to take the shoes off at the wedding the dress wouldn't drag. Plus the seamstress stated that if someone was to step on the dress with their heels the dress will rip very easily because of the material. The dress also snagged very easily and you couldn't really pull the string because it would ruin the dress. The dress was very light and being busty the dress was padded in which was a good thing. You have to wear a backless and strapless bra because of the back dress being cut low. The color was beautiful and the whole bridal party was just amazing!!
By koreanchick1019 on November 26, 2016
THIS DRESS IS EVERYTHING. we gotten sooo many complement from the people at the wedding!!! including the professional wedding photographer (whom she went to million weddings). also this dress is meant for every body form! so all the bridemaids looked flawless. we got it costume fit but it needed bit of adjustment. we should have went to seamstress get the measurement instead of doing our selves :P thank you for the beautiful dresses, just waiting for my wedding to come to order here again ;)
By Jerrilynlanier on November 23, 2016
1st off the customer service with this company is amazing. My dress arrived with a stain. There was no time for me to get a new dress. They fully reimbursed my dry cleaning bill, no problems. This is my 2nd dress from this company. The dress is well made. The only problem I had was the zipper. The fabric was flowy and light. Loved the dress. I will order from this company again.
By babyruth on November 22, 2016
Hello, I just wanted to thank Azazie, their staff member Paulette and seamtresses on the work they did for my daughter's Junior Bridesmaid dress .My daughter is only 12 years old but is considered plus size for her age. The staff actually worked with me on a custom size dress for her in a junior bridesmaid pattern. Thank you so much ! This was important to me because I wanted an age appropriate dress where she could still retain her youthfulness . I rarely write reviews, but I'm very impressed on the service and professionalism of this company that I would like to share these photos with others.
By plewis12 on November 21, 2016 Dress Color: Burgundy
Thrilled with the dress. Had to trust the measurements as my niece (jr bridesmaid) was flying in the day of the event and having the dress delivered here. Only needed a slight adjustment that was taken care of with a safety pin. Would recommend this company to anyone looking for the special dress!
By Trina on November 21, 2016
I had all my bridesmaids in mulberry in this awesome dress. The color was perfect and the dress was high quality. The only issue we had was with the custom sizing. All my girls ordered with custom measurements and they all had to get their dress altered when they came in. The biggest problem was that they came too long. Other than that, they were gorgeous and flattering on all my beautiful bridesmaids.
By glamisfox1988 on November 15, 2016 Dress Color: Wisteria
The color matches quite closely to how it appears online. The dress arrived quicker than I expected and fit pretty well for the measurements I took (I was almost exactly a 10 per the AZAZIE size chart so I did not custom order); I really just need it hemmed as it is just too long regardless of the shoes I try to pair it with. The dress is of great quality and the back detail is just as cute as it appears!
By hbenn on November 15, 2016
I loved the swatches! i ordered dusty rose, mulberry, champagne and ivory as shown in the picture! they are a great size and you are able to pull them apart and layer as the dress that you may be interested in is made. the only thing i would change about this site is that some of the sample photos are on a white background and it would be more similar to the swatches maybe if it was on a different background as the white can sometimes wash out the color or yellow it. but other than that i absolutely love this site!
By jhena4 on November 06, 2016 Dress Color: Dusty Rose
I am very grateful Azazie has such a wide selection of dresses and styles at a reasonable price; finding a dress in the appropriate color and style was made simple. The dress arrived ahead of schedule (at least a week prior) in plenty of time to have the straps slightly altered. I am 5'4, usually a size 4/6, but a size 4 was loose on me, particularly concerning the straps. However, this was an easy fix and the resulting adjustments left a very comfortable fit. It may be best to customize your size (the dress is also quite long). Overall, I am very happy with my purchase.

Location: The Heritage Foundation's Lehrman Auditorium
In recent years there have been numerous news stories based on
leaked information. The intelligence community has become risk
averse. Politicians are using sensitive information to fight
battles on Capitol Hill. Congress and the intelligence community
need to find a balance between secrecy and oversight. A culture
against leaks needs to be nurtured and strong protections
implemented; however, these must take place in the context of
strong oversight mechanisms.

Few updates
So a few events have taken place and I think they deserve sharing.
I now rank support 10/10
I've been adding to the number of VPS's I have with weloveservers.com
We're up to 4.
The 4th VPS we ordered had problems. Packet loss was about 10%. I opened a ticket and in less than an hour got a response, went back and forth with the tech a bit and got this:
There appears to be a network problem on Node18 causing packet loss... it could be a loose network cable and we are going to have an onsite technician take a look later today. I have added a free month to the darwin VPS as our apologies for the troubles that you've been through on this new VPS - this is definitely not the usual here at WeLoveServers and it appears to be a one time isolated problem with Node18 which we are working to fix.
That was from Christopher B.
In order to avoid any further issues my VPS was migrated to another node while they looked at the problem and I was credited a free month. Woot!
Network problems happen, hardware fails at times, and nothing is perfect. Anyone who expects to be with a host that never has any problems has unrealistic expectations. Best you can do is run a tight ship and when problems do occur identify them, be honest about it, and get them fixed asap. We love servers definitely has that down. And for $10 a month I'm just blown away. Great value for the money.
Thanks for taking the time to take care of your customers, it's definitely been noted on my end and in return I'm taking the time to try and promote you a bit.

It may cost a significant amount of money to fix your Invicta watch if you take it to a jeweler or send it to the manufacturer, but with a little work, you can repair the watchband yourself. There are a few common problems with watchbands involving the links and the clasps, such as replacing them because of denting or scratching, that can be fixed without going to a jeweler.
Things You'll Need
- Spring tool or paper clip
- Cloth
Order the parts from the manufacturer or jeweler if you know what the problem is. Decide how many links you need to replace or if one or both of the spring clasps need to be changed. If you order from the manufacturer, it may take a week or more before the parts are available. A jeweler might have the parts on hand.
Detach the watchband from the main watch assembly by pressing the spring tool or paperclip end against the spring loaded section of the band. The spring will loosen the clasp to the watch and allow you to remove the band. Do this to both areas where the band connects to the watch. Set the band down on the cloth to keep it from scratching during repair.
Remove the defective clasp or segment by using the tool or paperclip to push out the pin that connects the link or clasp to the watchband. Once the pin is out, you should be able to remove the defective link segment or clasp. Repeat to remove any other problem links.
Replace the links with the working links or clasp assembly by placing them on the band and working the link pins into the holes using the tool or paperclip. Once the link pins are in, the links or clasp should be attached.
Reconnect the two segments of the clasp to the main watch assembly by using the tool or the paperclip to press the spring-loaded connector and place the band into the area designated for the clasp and release the spring. The band should now connect to the main watch.

PrideSports' patented Fast-Twist Insert System, the most popular cleat changing system in golf, was designed to make cleat changing quick and easy. A simple quarter turn of a cleat wrench deadlocks cleats into place with a double click, while a reverse quarter turn unlocks the cleats for quick changing. A patented "positive stop" lets golfers know when the cleat is fully installed.
PINS, Performance Insert System, was developed by Softspikes in 2009 to reduce height and bring golfers closer to the ground. This revolutionary new insert system provides golfers with the immediate feedback required to develop a more consistent swing.
The Fits Q-LOK Fastening System is an alternative to the traditional threaded system for locking cleats into place. The Fits Q-LOK Fastening System is quick and easy requiring only a quarter turn to fasten the cleat to the shoe. Cleats with this insert system can also be easily removed with a reverse quarter turn.
The Small Metal Insert System is a traditional threaded insert system. This insert system features a strong metal post that can be tightened securely to the shoe receptacle. Begin threading the small metal cleat into the receptacle by hand, rotating to the right. Securely tighten the cleat with the Softspikes Cleat Kaddy until the cleat is flush with the sole.
The Large Plastic Insert System is a variation of the small metal thread fastening system, and it features a weight-reducing plastic post. Thread the cleat into the receptacle by hand, rotating to the right. Finish installation by tightening the cleat with the Softspikes Cleat Kaddy.

Appeal from the Circuit Court of La Salle County; the Hon.
Fred P. Wagner, Judge, presiding.
Defendant Kenneth Zehr was indicted for home invasion, burglary, aggravated battery, and theft. After the theft charge was dismissed, the cause proceeded to a jury trial in the circuit court of La Salle County. Defendant was convicted of the offenses and received respective, concurrent sentences of 22, 6, and 3 1/2 years in the Department of Corrections.
The incident leading to defendant's convictions began the evening of October 27, 1980. Hazel Fox, the 68-year-old victim, was living alone as she had lost her husband a week earlier. According to her audio-visual evidence deposition, defendant and a companion came to her home wanting to examine an old car that was for sale. Speaking through her dining room window, she refused to show them the vehicle. The men then left and walked down her driveway toward the road. Fox did not see or hear any vehicle. She then watched television and fell asleep.
Around 11 p.m., she woke up and went downstairs to her basement to check the furnace. In the basement, Fox heard the rustling of a shower curtain in the bathroom, which was a few feet from the furnace. Two persons appeared in the bathroom doorway. After pausing a moment, one of the persons knocked the witness' glasses off, rendering her virtually blind. She was then bound, gagged, and kept in the basement for several hours. During that time, the attackers ransacked her home and returned to the basement several times to strike their victim. Fox later heard a truck start and drive away, eventually got loose, found an old pair of glasses, and called her cousin. Several items, which the witness said were missing from her home, were later in defendant's possession. Much additional evidence was presented, but as the sufficiency of the evidence is not questioned, we shall only consider that necessary for the resolution of the issues herein.
The first issue presented for our review is whether the trial court erred in allowing the victim's testimony to be recorded by an audio-visual device. Supreme Court Rule 206(e) (87 Ill.2d. R. 206(e)) provides in part that "[t]he testimony shall be taken stenographically or by sound-recording device, and upon agreement of the parties, or by order of the court for good cause shown, may be taken by audio-visual recording device." As there was no agreement of the parties, the question becomes whether "good cause" for the audio-visual deposition was shown. It should be noted Supreme Court Rule 206(e) (87 Ill.2d R. 206(e)) is a rule of civil procedure, not criminal procedure, although its general terms are incorporated into the criminal procedure by Supreme Court Rule 414(b) (87 Ill.2d R. 414(b)). At the time Supreme Court Rule 206(e)) was amended in 1975 to permit audio-visual recording of evidence depositions, the authors offered no comments or advice about the amendment. This is of special importance since it indicates there was no effort to fashion the amendment in any manner that would have significance in criminal proceedings.
• 1 The State contends that the "good cause shown" was the importance of the jury observing the witness' demeanor and remind us that this is the 20th century. The trial court specifically noted the century and the fact the videotape would show Fox' demeanor. We quarrel not with the chronometric reminder and observation regarding demeanor; however, we do not believe the legislature intended either to constitute "good cause" in the present context. Assuming the 20th century reminder suggests that available recording technology be utilized, the "agreement of the parties" and "good cause shown" limitations cause a rejection of the suggestion. As to the observation regarding demeanor, this is a factor which will almost always be present. If the observation of a witness' demeanor were to constitute "good cause," then such would be present in virtually every case. We therefore find no "good cause shown" and the use of the videotape to constitute reversible error.
We note parenthetically that the legislative limitations are not without reason. Historically, evidence depositions were not admissible in criminal cases. (People v. Malone (1976), 41 Ill. App.3d 914, 354 N.E.2d 911.) Even now, the circumstances permitting the use of depositions against an accused in a criminal case must be extraordinary (see 23 Am.Jur.2d Depositions and Discovery sec. 120 (1965); Annot., 41 A.L.R. Fed. 764 (1979) ("exceptional circumstances" under 18 U.S.C.S. sec. 3503), and statutes allowing such depositions are strictly construed (see 23 Am.Jur.2d Depositions and Discovery sec. 11 (1965)). Videotaped depositions, or televised testimony, present additional problems. Not only do they run the risk of prejudicing the accused by overemphasizing the witness' testimony, the formal court setting has an impact on witness performance in that it creates psychological compulsions, which may not be present when testimony is taken outside the courtroom, toward testifying accurately and completely (see Annot., 80 A.L.R.3d 1212 (1977), citing Burt, The Case Against Courtroom TV, 12 Trial Magazine 62 (July 1976)). It has also been said that the demeanor of a witness comes across differently over television than when a witness is in the courtroom. (See Kansas City v. McCoy (Mo. 1975), 525 S.W.2d 336, 340 (dissenting opinion).) All of these factors support the legislative limitations of the statute here involved.
• 2 As this cause must be remanded for a new trial, we shall address two additional issues likely to arise again. The first is whether the trial court abused its discretion by failing to ask prospective jurors the following supplemental questions provided by defense counsel:
"1. If at the close of all the evidence and after you have heard arguments of counsel you believe that the State has failed to sustain the burden of proof and has failed to prove the defendant guilty beyond a reasonable doubt, would you have any hesitation whatsoever in returning a verdict of Not Guilty?
2. If the defendant, Mr. Zehr, decides not to testify in his own behalf, would you hold it against him?
3. Do you understand that the defendant is presumed innocent and does not have to offer any evidence in his own behalf, but must be proven guilty beyond a reasonable doubt by the State?"
Each of these questions goes to the heart of a particular bias or prejudice which would deprive defendant of his right to a fair and impartial jury. While the scope of a voir dire examination is ordinarily left to the sound discretion of the court, counsel should be permitted to make any reasonable and pertinent search to ascertain whether the minds of the jurors are free from bias and prejudice. (People v. Carpenter (1958), 13 Ill.2d 470, 150 N.E.2d 100, cert. denied (1958), 358 U.S. 887, 3 L.Ed.2d 115, 79 S.Ct. 128.) While Supreme Court Rule 234 (87 Ill.2d R. 234) proscribes questioning jurors concerning matters of law or instructions, we do not so perceive the supplemental questions as concerning such, but rather see them as directly probing for bias and prejudice. We note further that if such a bias or prejudice is present, a jury instruction is hardly curative. (See People v. Newlun (1980), 89 Ill. App.3d 938, 940-41, 412 N.E.2d 1055, 1057 (concurring opinion), appeal denied (1981), 83 Ill.2d 573.) We therefore find the failure of the court to submit the questions to the jury an abuse of discretion and direct it to include the questions in its voir dire examination if they are again tendered. But see, e.g., People v. Lowe (1975), 30 Ill. App.3d 49, 54, 331 N.E.2d 639, 642.
• 3 The second additional issue likely to arise again is whether the trial court erred in denying defendant's request for an absence of witness instruction, Illinois Pattern Jury Instructions, Civil, No. 5.01 (2d ed. 1971). The witness in question was Terry Garrett, the co-defendant. It is well established that the State is not required to call all of the witnesses to a crime in proving its case (People v. Nowak (1970), 45 Ill.2d 158, 258 N.E. 313), and where a similar instruction was tendered and refused, no error was found (People v. Bracey (1981), 93 Ill. App.3d 864, 417 N.E.2d 1029). It further appears that Garrett was known and available to both defendant and the State. The court therefore did not err in refusing the instruction.
Accordingly, the judgment of the circuit court of La Salle County is reversed and this cause remanded for a new trial, with directions.
Reversed and remanded with directions.
SCOTT, J., concurs.
JUSTICE HEIPLE, dissenting:
I do not agree with the majority's conclusion that the trial judge erred in admitting the victim's videotaped testimony, nor do I believe that he abused his discretion by refusing the defendant's proposed voir dire questions.
The victim in this case was Hazel Fox, a 68-year-old woman with a history of hypertension and arteriosclerosis. The trial court ordered that an evidence deposition of her testimony be taken since the condition of her health raised the substantial probability that her testimony would be unavailable at trial. (Supreme Court Rule 414(a) (87 Ill.2d R. 414(a)).) This rule also provides that an evidence deposition in a criminal trial shall be taken in accord with Supreme Court Rule 206 (87 Ill.2d R. 206) which provides that a deposition may be videotaped by order of the court for good cause shown. The State argued that it was important for the jury to observe Mrs. Fox' demeanor. The trial judge agreed and ordered that the deposition be videotaped. At trial, a medical expert testified that Mrs. Fox' condition had not improved and that she would not be able to testify in person. Hence, the trial court admitted the videotaped evidence deposition over the objection of defense counsel.
In reversing the trial court, the majority does not challenge the appropriateness of an evidence deposition in this case. Rather, they feel that the State failed to demonstrate good cause for using videotaped testimony. Whether good cause was shown was a matter left to the discretion of the trial judge and he did not abuse that discretion in this case. While I would agree with the majority that the need for the jury to observe a witness' demeanor would not be good cause in every case, I do believe that it was sufficient under the circumstances of this case.
Good cause must certainly encompass the demeanor of the complaining witness when that witness is the only individual who can identify the defendant as the perpetrator of the crime. Clearly the trial judge did not err in finding that the demeanor of this particular witness was important to the jury in determining the defendant's guilt or innocence. Even the defense counsel would have preferred that Mrs. Fox testify in person and specifically referred to her demeanor during closing arguments. In view of the importance of her testimony, a videotaped evidence deposition was the next best thing to Mrs. Fox' presence at trial. It enabled the jury to better assess the credibility of this key witness than the reading of a deposition would have. However, the defense counsel argued that showing the jury a videotape tended to overemphasize Mrs. Fox' testimony. The majority agrees with the defense, adding that a videotape may not be an accurate reflection of the witness' true demeanor. It is my position that these alleged problems are not inherent flaws in all videotaped testimony but are factors which the trial court should consider on a case-by-case basis in deciding whether or not to use that method of recording. Annot., 66 A.L.R.3d 637 (1975).
The use of videotaped evidence depositions should be encouraged where good cause is shown. The majority opinion places an undue restriction on the trial judge's discretion in determining good cause, therefore, I dissent.
I also do not think that the trial judge abused his discretion in refusing to give the following supplemental voir dire questions tendered by defense counsel:
"1. If at the close of all the evidence and after you have heard arguments of counsel you believe that the State has failed to sustain the burden of proof and has failed to prove the defendant guilty beyond a reasonable doubt, would you have any hesitation whatsoever in returning a verdict of Not Guilty?
Supreme Court Rule 234 (73 Ill.2d R. 234) clearly forbids any examination of jurors, directly or indirectly, concerning matters of law or instructions:
"The court shall conduct the voir dire examination of prospective jurors by putting to them questions it thinks appropriate touching their qualifications to serve as jurors in the case on trial. The court may permit the parties to submit additional questions to it for further inquiry if it thinks they are appropriate, or may permit the parties to supplement the examination by such direct inquiry as the court deems proper. Questions shall not directly or indirectly concern matters of law or instructions."
Although the majority may correctly perceive the proposed questions as probing for bias and prejudice, the questions also have the indirect effect of examining the jurors concerning matters of law and instructions.
The agreed statement of the parties concerning voir dire examination indicates that the jurors were asked if they would follow the instructions of law given by the court even though they might personally disagree with the instructions. The questions offered by the defense were then incorporated into the pattern jury instructions given by the court. This procedure adequately encompassed the proposed questions while remaining within the bounds of Rule 234. To allow the defense to submit questions on voir dire which amount to jury instructions is to indoctrinate and pre-educate the jurors concerning matters of law and that is forbidden. People v. Phillips (1981), 99 Ill. App.3d 362.
I also note that the appellant does not claim that the jury selected was biased or unfair: "Where a voir dire examination — whether conducted by the court or by counsel — results in a qualified and impartial jury, no prejudicial error occurs in its selection." (People v. Carruthers (1974), 18 Ill. App.3d 255, 261.) For these reasons, I would affirm the judgment of the trial court.

Who out there has used "Canadian Green Grass" with success? Who has had problems?Hardiness Zone: 7aBrenda55 from Stanfield, NC
The grass does not stay green all year. We live in Idaho and it snows here a lot and the grass dies out under the snow. Hope it will come back in summer but don't know yet.

My 2010 Camaro had 25k miles on it so it was time for a filter. Research indicated the stock air intake box was nearly equivalent to all the fancy aftermarket Cold Air Intakes on dyno testing. So I thought I would just go with a high-flow high-quality air filter replacement. Appears to be of good quality and was a perfect fit.
Decided to ditch your stock air filter and upgrade to a lifetime reusable one? Great! But, now comes the tricky part. When it comes time to decide between K&N and aFe, make sure you have all the information you need to make an informed buying decision.
