Try to keep the bike balanced in the air otherwise you fall off the bike, costing you several precious seconds. There are Star Power-ups located around the city. These Power-ups add 30 seconds to your time. Keep collecting them to increase the timer at the top of the game screen.
The game ends when you cross the finish line or the timer runs out. Keep exploring the city to find new hidden ramps, there are so many to choose from! If you find a particularly tricky ramp, reverse and get a good run up to increase your chances of scoring big.

BeschreibungThis practical guide for teaching philosophy brings together essays by two dozen distinguished philosophers committed to pedagogy. Addressing primarily practical issues, such as how to motivate students, construct particular courses, and give educational exams, the essays also touch on theoretical issues such as whether moral edification is a proper goal of teaching ethics.
PortraitTziporah Kasachoff is Professor of Philosophy at the City University of New York and the editor of the American Philosophical Association Newsletter on Teaching Philosophy.
PressestimmenThis book's comparative loneliness already marks it out as significant: it is one of the very few works that explicitly deal with the practical task of teaching philosophy in contemporary universities. The book's contents, moreover, mark it out as extremely useful: all teachers of the subject will have something to learn from it. -- Steven Tudor, University of Melbourne Australasian Journal Of Philosophy

Posted: May 18, 2010 in ACE Press Releases
SAN DIEGO (May 18, 2010)—The American Council on Exercise (ACE), America's leading authority on fitness and the largest non-profit fitness certification, education and training organization in the world, today unveiled the findings of an exclusive study on the Slendertone Bottom Toner, an electronic muscle stimulation (EMS) device designed to tone the buttocks. The study, which was conducted in conjunction with the exercise and health program at the University of Wisconsin, La Crosse, concluded that, while the Slendertone Bottom Toner may be effective at improving buttocks strength and endurance, it does not offer the overall health benefits of regular exercise.
"While in-home EMS products have improved in recent years, many of these devices still offer consumers the promise of improved muscle tone and appearance without exercise," says ACE's Chief Science Officer, Cedric X. Bryant, Ph.D. "With this in mind, we set out to determine the relative effectiveness of the Slendertone Bottom Toner compared to a traditional exercise for the glutes."
EMS technology, which consists of placing electrodes on the skin that deliver electrical impulses to the muscles below causing them to contract, has existed for decades. The manufacturers of these devices have marketed them as an exercise-free method of improving muscle tone and overall appearance of frequently cited trouble spots like the abdominals, triceps and buttocks. ACE first examined the efficacy of EMS in early 2000, when it sponsored research with the University of Wisconsin, La Crosse, on an EMS-based device promising rock-hard abs, which found the products to fall short of their promises. According to ACE, the Slendertone Bottom Toner has proved more effective than its earlier counterparts, delivering on its claims to improve buttocks strength and endurance.
For the study, a team of University of Wisconsin, La Crosse, researchers, led by John Porcari, Ph.D., Stephanie Tepper, M.S., Mary Patrek, M.S., Josh Wilson, M.S. and Sarah Horlitz, M.S., recruited 72 healthy women from 20 to 60 years old who were not engaged in any lower-body training in the previous six months as test subjects. Participants underwent a series of assessments, including questionnaires, a buttock circumference evaluation, muscle tone test and strength and endurance assessments, to form a baseline assessment for buttocks strength and endurance.
Following six weeks in which one group participated in conventional exercise and one participated in stimulation with the Slendertone Bottom Toner, the study revealed that the device was as effective as a regular regime of conventional quadruped hip extension exercise in terms of buttocks strength and endurance. Although there were no meaningful changes in body weight, BMI or hip circumference, both groups showed significant improvement in buttocks strength (9 percent for the exercise group and 15 percent for the stimulation group) and endurance (26 percent for the exercise group and 29 percent for the stimulation group). Further, both groups reported improvements in positive feelings on buttocks firmness, strength, tone, shape and appearance.
While the ACE study supports the Slendertone Bottom Toner's claims in ability to improve buttocks muscle strength and endurance, Bryant cautions against equating the benefits of the device with the overall benefits of regular exercise.
The stimulation group spent significantly more time using the EMS device than the exercise group spent working out (30 minutes vs. 5 minutes). "If the individuals in the exercise group devoted an equivalent amount of time to traditional exercise as the individuals in the stimulant group did to using the device, their results would have likely exceeded those of the EMS device," says Bryant. "People often cite lack of time as one of the chief reasons they don't exercise, but if you can find 30 minutes a day to shock yourself, you should be able to find 30 minutes a day to engage in physical activity that will provide you with all of the benefits of exercise that an EMS device can't offer, including improvements in overall health, reduced risk of disease, reduced stress, enhanced mood and weight loss."
A full study summary can be found on ACE's "Get Fit" Web site, designed to inform, inspire, educate and motivate people to become fit and lead a healthier, more active lifestyle, located at www.acefitness.org/getfit/research.aspx.

The seaside resort of Weston-super-Mare has earned a new accolade as the UK's divorce capital.
According to figures published by the Ministry of Justice, only Birmingham with population more than 10 times that of Weston, registered more divorce applications last year.
The official list of divorce numbers by population centre was released as part of a Government drive to encourage couples to make use of new publicly-funded mediation services.
In total there were 2,437 applications for divorce petitions at Weston-super-Mare County Court in the 12 months to September 2012, compared with 2,799 at Birmingham Civil Justice Centre.
This has left local lawyers and officials scratching their heads as they have not seen a marked increase in the number of people visiting their offices.
However the answer to this conundrum lies at the door of the UK's largest online divorce company who have been using the court at Weston-Super-Mare for 2 years to file the majority of their divorces cases, which come from all over the country. So Government statistics are not all they seem.
Of course we have contacted all the national and local media outlets in Somerset to inform them of the reason for the massive divorce spike.

Fast Retailing Shares Fall After Uniqlo Sales Plunge on Japan's Hot Summer
Fast Retailing Co., Asia's largest listed clothing retailer, fell the most in four weeks in Tokyo trading after its Uniqlo chain posted the biggest drop in monthly domestic sales in more than seven years.
Fast Retailing declined 1.8 percent to 11,560 yen on the Tokyo Stock Exchange, as of 9:12 a.m., after earlier today dropping 2.7 percent, the most since Sept. 8. The benchmark Nikkei 225 Stock Average slipped 0.5 percent.
Sales at Uniqlo stores open at least a year in Japan plunged 24.7 percent in September from a year earlier, the Yamaguchi, Japan-based retailer said yesterday. That's the biggest decline since February 2003, according to company data.
Demand for jackets, long-sleeved shirts and other autumn apparel was "weak" last month because of the hot weather, said Daisuke Hase, a company spokesman. The average temperature in Tokyo was 25.1 degrees Celsius (77.2 degrees Fahrenheit) in September, 1.6 degrees hotter than the seasonal norm, Japan's weather agency said on its website.
Uniqlo's same-store sales surged 32 percent in September last year.
Apparel retailer Point Inc. and Japan's second-largest department-store operator J. Front Retailing Co. also said the hotter weather reduced demand for warm clothes last month. Point said last week that sales at stores open at least a year slipped 13 percent, while J. Front said sales fell 3.7 percent.
Fast Retailing in Osaka last week opened its first flagship Uniqlo store in Japan as part of a drive to operate bigger outlets in its home market. The company's chief executive officer and biggest shareholder is Tadashi Yanai, who was named Japan's richest man by Forbes Asia magazine in its January issue.

Does your business have a bad reputation?
Fix it the right way.
Corporate Advocacy Program™
This place is an absolute rip off. I have tried business with them on three occasions and each time it is worse. They are selling obsolete junk at a high premium that they run around and buy from people on CL and locals and buying in bulk on pallet toss buy outs, clean it up and resell for 2,3,4 times the price that they paid for it. with bad ram sticks, hard drives with sector failures, to monitors with burnout spots. They are not a respectable business, and their ETHICS are highly suspect. Selling ink refills that bleed out and destroy a printer and then tell you its not thier problem, selling laptops with non OEM hardware and telling you its refurb'd and covered under warranty. If you deal with this guy, get EVERYTHING in writing and DO NOT pay cash, used a card so you can be protected. This is the same guy selling crap at saturdays market flea market. Buyers Beware! Take the time to research ANYTHING this guy sells and price check it, and or take someone with PC knowledge along to save you time and money!

What Really Happens
SUBMITTED: Sunday, December 29, 2013POSTED: Sunday, December 29, 2013
Since the customer didn't mention anything in particular and talked about random things, I presume he is the competition since he had a bad experience why did he keep coming back and how many people know what a computer sector is or that some computer stores buy computers by the pallet.
Well sell laptops and desktops in all price catagories, we would like to sell only $900 computers, but the market doesnt allow it, so we sell 6 year computers that sell for around $99 to $499 for a new computer, We run diagnostics and replace any parts that failed with OEM or compatible. Our prices are based on Ebays prices, very competitive, ALL computers carry a WARRANTY, ALL hard drives, memory, lcd screens carry a WARRANTY, if the customer had a problem he didn't bring it to our attention with in the warranty terms.
Our ink refill business is big, we offer the first refill FREE, just so the customer can see if a refill will work in their printer, some do, some don't, but it cost nothing to find out, we clean the nozzle and simply fill the reservoir and make sure the ink travels from the reservoir to the nozzle, we don't touch the computer chip or contacts, in the 3 years of doing refills we have had only 2 customers that had leakage, the cartridges were replaced.
We do not sell at Saturday Market or any other flea market, we do not buy bulk computers from the state surplus or recyclers, ALL our computers are purchased from customers who sell them to us or trade them in to us or we buy from electronic distributers. The seller may have us mixed up with someone else.
We advertise on Craigslist like all computer stores do, We also advertise on Facebook, is this a bad thing? we advertise to buy and sell all electronics, not just computers, we currently sell cellphones, camera's, GPS's, audio systems, mp3 player and much more, they all carry a WARRANTY. Is there going to be problems? of course, we are dealing with electronics they have a mind of there own, but we try our best to offer trouble free products.
We are a family owned and ran computer store, we opened in 2004 and since then our customer based has grown making us the largest computer store on the hwy. 230 corridor.
Are you an owner, employee or ex-employee with either negative or positive information about the company or individual, or can you provide "insider information" on this company?
Advertisers above have met our
strict standards for business conduct.

While shale gas advocates hoped the 5-day Reclaim the Power camp was a flash-in-the-pan, Balcombe fracking opponents are "upping the ante" for Cuadrilla's final 28 days of drilling, announcing a rolling blockade of the frack site starting September 1st.
"The government may be allowing [Cuadrilla] to drill but they have no social licence from the people of Balcombe to frack their land and threaten their water supply," said organisers. "Now it's time to up the ante."
Their instructions for participants wanting to be a part of the blockade are simple. According to a release from local organisers:
"We invite groups from around the country to come and play a part in a 28 day rolling blockade.
Think creatively and act responsibly. Pick a weekday before September 28, gather friends and useful kit [and] get yourselves to Balcombe."
As was the case with the range of non-violent direct actions taken during Reclaim the Power, small affinity groups are free to organise themselves to take whatever peaceful actions they feel will help to stop trucks from reaching the drill site.
Further details from the organisers are as follows:
* People are reminded that this is a peaceful blockade and that the Balcombe camp is alcohol-free.
* For further information please contact firstname.lastname@example.com
* Follow us on Twitter (@28_dayslater) and like us on Facebook (https://www.facebook.com/28dayslaterrollingblockade)

Cohabiting Before Marriage Shouldn't Be About Sex or a Ring

I'm not personally a proponent of cohabitation before marriage. If you asked for my advice, I'd tell you not to. There's plenty of empirical research out there to suggest that it might not be the greatest idea. But you don't need to reduce men to sex-starved lunatics (or women to desperate shells who will whither and die if they don't get a ring) to get your point across.

19 Composers on What Makes Kronos Kronos
Over the course of 50+ recordings, countless international appearances, 800 commissions and arrangements and 40 years of music-making, the Kronos Quartet has worked with a list of composers and musicians more mind-blowingly diverse than perhaps that of any other ensemble. Their collaborators range from Chinese pipa virtuoso Wu Man, to Serbian composer Aleksandra Vrebalov, to West African kora virtuoso Foday Musa Suso, to contemporary icons Steve Reich and Osvaldo Golijov, to the growing society of their Under 30 Project including Felipe Pérez Santiago and Mary Kouyoumdjian.
In order to gain a better understanding of what makes Kronos so distinctive and how it maintains this blistering pace of discovering, nurturing and presenting new music, we spoke with 19 composers who've worked closely with the quartet. Whether it's those who've been with the quartet since its beginnings (Terry Riley, Ken Benshoof), to those prominent artists who've been drawn into their orbit (Kevin Volans, Donnacha Dennehy), to the youngest generation of emerging voices (Alexandra du Bois, Dan Visconti), everyone below contributes something to the understanding of what makes Kronos so unique and so special.

Track & Field's Akerstrom In Action At World University Games Wednesday
July 10, 2013
University of Cincinnati student-athlete Frida Akerstrom (Nynashamn, Sweden/Nynashamn Gymnasium), competing for her native Sweden, threw 14.78m (48-06) in the shot put Wednesday inside Central Stadium at the 27th World University Games in Kazan, Russia.
Akerstrom placed sixth in qualifying group A with her best effort of 14.78m, just missing the fifth and final qualifying spot. Russia's Olesya Svirdova threw 14.95m (49-00.25) on her final throw to out-distance Akerstrom for fifth.
Akerstrom improved on each throw, opening up with a toss of 14.30m (46-11), followed by an effort of 14.64m (48-00.5) ahead of her best toss of the day on her final throw, 14.78m.
The rising senior holds a career-best mark of 15.55m (51-00.25), thrown at the 2012 Big East Conference Outdoor Championship. Her 2013 season-best toss of 15.13m (49-07.75) came via a second-place finish at the All-Ohio Outdoor Championship. She took sixth place in the shot put at the Big East outdoor meet and qualified for the NCAA Championship preliminary round.

She Said Yes, by Misty Bernall, explains through details of a worried parent about how kids problems can be solved through a different environment, even if you question. Cassie's death was not pursued but an unlucky chance that out of everyone who was in the library cramming in their studies, two men on a killing rampage, picked her. They asked a serious question. Did she believe in God? No, you live, yes, you die. She answered yes, with all the strength that was in her mind and soul of repeating that same question at home. Through the story Misty explain her life before the tragedy up until the morning of. After the shooting at Columbine, Misty and her families struggles after the incident are printed as if we are right next to them.

text: I think most parents will agree that there are good travel days with kids, and bad travel days. Some trips go so smoothly you want to pinch yourself: your kids entertain themselves nicely in the backseat, barely argue, and you and your spouse manage to have some good chunks of meaningful (or not even meaningful) conversation along the way. It's so great to have older kids, you tell yourself, remembering those painful trips from years ago when you had to contort your body in extreme ways in order to nurse your unhappy infant while she was still buckled into the car seat. But then there are those road trips that just don't go as well. On the way up to Maryland on Friday nothing went right for L. from the minute we left. The car was too cold; no, too hot. He couldn't get his MP3 player to work. The laptop crashed. He wanted T. to be absolutely silent. Her doll was too close to his seat. Her sandwich smelled. He wanted a charger cord from the back of the car and wouldn't rest until we pulled off some country road to look for it. Then it didn't work. When we finally pulled up to my brother's house at 10:30 that night I couldn't get out of the van fast enough. On the way back on Sunday both kids were exhausted from late nights and too much excitement. While I would have given anything for someone to strap me into a car seat with a good book and a soft pillow, neither T. nor L. wanted anything much to do with that. I still think there is little more painful and frazzling then being stuck in a car in highway traffic with fighting/whining/unhappy children while you spend your time--contorted, of course--over the back of your seat while you try and do damage control. There were moments, I confess, when I wondered to myself (and perhaps at one point out loud, I'm afraid to say) whether or not it really was worth it. All the wear and tear for a whirlwind weekend--travel on Saturday, then one day, then travel back; school on Monday for L., exhausted parents at the start of the week, was it really worth it? Of course it was. I got to see my brother and sister and their families, and spend some time with all of them again, after what felt like a long, long summer away. We had the privilege of witnessing a marriage, and being a part of something big and importantl. Despite the trials and tribulations of the getting there part I have yet to experience travel so bad that it wiped out the good parts. Sandwiched in between the painful rides this weekend were many wonderful moments--the moments I know we'll remember long after the headaches, and spent nerves have faded away. In the end the getting there part isn't always the important part at all; it's what happens when you get there--that's the stuff of memories, what you hold onto, long after the trip is done, and you find yourselves back home again.

I had A breast augmentation and my white strips ripped before they were ready and caused a small opening it became infected my doctor said that if continue to smoke and anti botiocs dont help ( my second round) he remove my implant is smoking the only reason ??? and how much does it cost generally to take implant out and put back in ? and is this really All my fault
I Had a Breast Augmentation and my Stitches Are Infected is This Only Because I Started Smoking Again?

Smoking delays healing
Smoking Compromises Ability To Fight Infection After Breast Augmentation
Web reference: https://www.edelsteincosmetic.com/
Smoking and breast surgery
Smoking has many detrimental effects on wound healing. Surgery and smoking really do mot mix well. Listen to your Doc.
You might also like...
Smoking Underestimated after Breast Augmentation
Smoking after any surgery leads to reduction in blood flow and compromises healing. The cascade is very complex and not appropriate for description in this forum but smoking should be stopped to ensure the best outcome. The next step is to remove the implant and possibly replace it in 3 to 6 months provided the infection is properly treated and the smoking has ceased.
Healing and Smoking
First step is to stop smoking while you are healing. Impaired wound healing is one of the side effects we mention to our patients if they choose to smoke during their healing period. Speak with your surgeon about your costs and options of healing or removal of implants.
Wound dehiscence after breast augmentation
Smoking and wound healing problems
Smoking definitely effects healing after surgery especially when large areas of skin are undermined such as with an abdominoplasty, breast reduction and facelift. While we are always concerned about smoking it is not as important with breast augmentation. You would only need to have the implant removed if the implant itself becomes infected. An infected implant will cause the breast to be very sore, tender in all four quadrants and red. You may only have a small suture infection or superficial wound separation but in any event you need to be checked again.
Surgery and smoking
The nicotine in cigarettes can cause blood vessels to constrict and decrease blood flow to an incision site. While this may delay the healing process and decrease your ability to ward off an infection, it really doesn't have anything to do with causing an infection. That would be the result of bacteria in the wound. My suggestion would be to do exactly what your doctor recommended. Keep the area clean with soap and water and apply antibiotic ointment to the wound. Stopping your cigarette smoking at this point really won't accomplish much.
Smoking and Breast infection
I am not sure how much you can be blamed for smoking since I am not aware since how many years you have been smoking what is your age and how much you smoke now. Smoking reduces the blood supply to the entire body and thus does not help in healing. However infection of suture line is sometime caused by sutures ( specially Vicryl ) which is sometime not as good as expected by the surgeon since the hospitals purchase the cheapest qualities in general and that can be the source of wound openings and infection. If your PS is already telling you to replace the implants the situation is bad enough and you need to listen to him. Wish you good luck

It's Kickstarter time again, only instead of bringing you the strange fruits of amazing amateur inventors, this gadget comes from a pair of seasoned toy designers.
The Air Guitar Move for iPhone is a guitar pick that plugs into your phone. Inside the pick is an accelerometer, so it knows just how hard you are thrashing. A pair of companion apps work with the accessory to actually give it some functionality.
First, a "free play" app lets you finger chords on the touch-screen, whilst you strum them with the pick. You can also shake the iPhone around to vary the sound, much like bending the neck of the guitar. The second app is a Rock Band-like game, and the pick and screen become the controllers.
Air Guitar Move is just one of many app-accessory combos that turn a smartphone into a musical instrument. Several app makers in years past have created apps that replace turntables, flutes, electric guitars and other instruments. A few bold musicians, such as the Gorillaz and iPad DJ Rana Sobhany, are already experimenting with music apps on mobile devices as cheap, versatile replacements for the traditional recording studio.
The brains behind the Air Guitar Move are Colin Karpfinger, who previously came up with Thumbies, an iPhone controller sold by Best Buy, and Ronald Mannak, inventor of the V-Beat AirDrums and V-Beat AirGuitar (a toy guitar with a body you clip to your belt and a neck and headstock you hold in your left hand. Suffice it to say, Mannak likes air guitar).
To get an Air Guitar Move you'll need to pledge $39 or more. It already looks like the guys will make it: They already have alomost $7,000 of their $25,000 goal, and there are still 20 days to go.

Next Episode of Monster Musume no Iru Nichijou is
not planed. TV Show was canceled.
Monsters—they're real, and they want to date us! Three years ago, the world learned that harpies, centaurs, catgirls, and all manners of fabulous creatures are not merely fiction; they are flesh and blood—not to mention scale, feather, horn, and fang. Thanks to the "Cultural Exchange Between Species Act," these once-mythical creatures have assimilated into society, or at least, they're trying. When a hapless human named Kurusu Kimihito is inducted as a "volunteer" into the government exchange program, his world is turned upside down. A snake-like lamia named Miia comes to live with him, and it is Kurusu's job to take care of her and make sure she integrates into his everyday life. Unfortunately for Kurusu, Miia is undeniably sexy, and the law against interspecies breeding is very strict. Even worse, when a ravishing centaur girl and a flirtatious harpy move in, what's a full-blood

The charges are among several explosive allegations the man in the center of the BALCO scandal made in a wide-ranging interview in the upcoming issue of ESPN The Magazine. Conte's claims include:
He personally gave "The Clear," an undetectable steroid, to Bonds' trainer.

help with wiring diagram
2 Attachment(s)
Hi There.
I'm in a situation where I currently have a hexagonal box, that has a configuration (see diagrams below). This box has it, so that the power comes in from the main circuit breaker (power), then also has a wire coming in for a light fixture, and finally, there is another one coming in for a switch that controls this fixture.
Essentially, what I want to do is run power THROUGH this hexagonal box so that I can use the power from the circuit breaker in another box elsewhere, and have the switch only control the current light fixture that it switches on/off in the current box.
I mainly wanted to do this, because the circuit only has this one fixture on it, and I figured I could use it for a few more lights in my basement, without fear of any circuit being overloaded with too much.
I'm not a 'professional' by any means, but I have done wiring of switch boxes and so on, but I don't think I've encountered this situation before.
Can you provide me with some guidance about this diagram and tell me if this is proper or if there is an easier way?
Thanks in advance for your help!
P.S. Apologies for the cryptic diagrams...I'm limited in my paint skills!
Electrically your diagram is correct; though you don't need multiple wire nuts for the same purpose. Just use one per wire function (hot/neutral/ground). In other words, where your hot power is fed into the box, use one wire nut to join the incoming power, the power out to the switch's white wire, and power out to the new additon. Do the same for the incoming neutral as well, only you would tie the incoming neutral with the light fixture neutral and the new addition.
Also, by code you must color code the white wire to the switch with either a black or red mark in either tape or a marker (sharpie). This must be done at both ends of the wire to indicate the white wire is a current carrying conductor.
Thanks for your quick reply.
The only reason I tried to 'pigtail' the hot/netural ones is that I wanted to ensure consistent power to the cable that will supply power to the other box. If I remove the pigtails, won't that make it so that the switch will control the other power box too?

This will help
Thanks for your help!
Thanks - this is just what I needed.
I had previously come up with a wiring that made the switch give power to both the light fixture and the new unswitched power source, but I now realize my mistake before was that I used a wire nut to join the light fixture's hot, the switch's hot (black) and the unswitched power's hot. By simply moving the unswitched hot and connecting it to the hot incoming power source, it solved the problem!
Many thanks again.

Re: Football teams you love, like and hate....
Will always have a soft spot for Man Utd, given I was brought up following them and have some great home/away memories, but ever since early 2010 my support for FCUM (FC United of Manchester) developed from respecting their desire to break away from Man Utd and form their own club, to an active following of them in their stance against modern football and the sweeping commercialism which has rooted itself in the game.
Cheap affordable football with one of the best supports in the country, a good laugh with people watching football in a relaxed and jubilant fashion rather than worrying about promotion not looking likely, exactly how it should be.
Never been a fan of other clubs, always been 'Big United' or now 'Little United' but I've usually had respect for a lot of other managers and therefore I've not exactly rooted against their teams, although I'd fall well short of actually 'liking' and having a proper interest in any other team, people like David Moyes, Alan Pardew (at Newcastle), Curbishley in his Charlton days, Martinez at Wigan etc. Good, respectful managers who've done excellent jobs on shoe-string budgets and generally come across as more respectful and humble than other personalities in football.
As for teams/fans I dislike/hate:
Man City. Should be obvious. Their fans are without doubt the worst to be subjected to when you're losing to them, whether they were the annoying obsessive twats back in the days when they were a mid-table club, constantly clinging onto the deluded belief that no-one in Manchester supports United, or that they were a people's club and took pride in not being a money spending monopoly like Chelsea or United (HA), or as they are now as the arrogant and annoying tits now suddenly abandoning all their past grievances at how United, Chelsea and others spent obscene amounts of money, taking pride in having a worldwide following when they used to chastise United, Liverpool, Chelsea and others for this etc. Words cannot do justice to them.
Leeds. Fuck 'em. I grudgingly respect their support and the fact they managed to get insane numbers in the League 1 days, but still the Leeds/Man Utd rivalry is well documented and I loathe the horrible bastards. Everything from constant paper aeroplanes at our games, vandalisings the toilets in OT with Munich abuse (particularly when Leeds Rhinos in the Rugby League play in the Grand Final at OT) to jeering during a minute's silence for Matt Busby shortly after his death. Tbf United fans are just as bad with the Istanbul banners and chants, so I have no mither with Leeds fans hating us, but still, fuck 'em.
Liverpool. Much like Leeds and City, horrible set of fans with their Munich abuse ensuring constant Munich/Hillsbrough chants dominate any fixture between both clubs. Attacking Alan Smith's ambulance after his leg break at their ground in 05, stanley knives slashing fans up and down the country in the 70s/80s and occasionaly 90s, obsessed with some FA conspiracy that they're always hard done by etc. Always good for a laugh, but christ when things actually do go their way only City are worse for having to stomach their jubliation. Oh and who can forget bottles/cups of piss/excrement being launched at us in numerous games at Anfield.
Stoke. Fans are absolutely obsessed with us and have been trying to make the annual Stoke/Utd matches at the Britannia stadium feel like something special every year when its not even on Utd fans' radar. Munich abuse to try and spite United fans, constant chants about them being a primarily local support despite averaging pitiful attendances in the Championship days and only getting close to sell out games when they got promoted etc etc. Pulis is generally an alright bloke from the little I follow of him, but their fans are just something else. You can say the same for Bolton, though with them its more a pocket of fans (about 500) in the far corner of the ground who have this hilarious obsession with United and City/Liverpool year on year.
Millwall. Not much needs to be said to anyone who's heard of them. Vile set of creatures and despite them being a throwback to the 80s in terms of suppport and atmosphere, a lot of their fans are just infinitely hateable. Constantly trying to bait Leeds, Cardiff and Livepool with respective tragedies in the hopes of sparking some violence. Hate them.

By: Margaret A. Hamburg, M.D.
Physicians who work at FDA have typically trained in one or more medical specialties — areas of concentration which shape their interests and inform the regulatory work they do here to protect and promote the public health.
In my own case, I earned a degree in internal medicine and then focused on infectious diseases, eventually advocating for reforms to confront the dangers of modern bioterrorism, and looking for ways to counter the threat of naturally occurring infectious diseases, such as HIV, pandemic flu, and drug resistant TB.
So, too, it is with the inimitable Janet Woodcock, M.D.
Dr. Woodcock first joined FDA in 1986, and in her years at this agency has served in numerous capacities, including FDA deputy commissioner and chief medical officer. Today, she is director of the agency's highly-respected Center for Drug Evaluation and Research.
At its recent annual Advocacy Summit, the Arthritis Foundation presented Dr. Woodcock with its Floyd B. Odlum Making a Difference Award, which honors an individual, organization, corporation, or government agency that has helped to make a difference in the lives of people and families with arthritis.
Striking one in every five adults, arthritis is the nation's leading cause of disability. And it's not just a disease of old age. Two-thirds of people with arthritis are under the age of 65, including 300,000 children.
Those numbers are not lost on Dr. Woodcock, who began her medical career as a rheumatology specialist, and ever since has been helping to shape and inform the advancement of arthritis treatments.
Dr. Woodcock has been a key figure in the revolution of rheumatoid arthritis therapies, from drugs that broadly address arthritis inflammation to today's highly-effective, targeted, treatments. She is also helping to shape FDA's regulatory framework for an abbreviated path to market for biosimilar drugs, those that are shown to be, among other things, highly similar to an already-approved biological product.
Once these drugs become available, they could increase choices for patients and reduce what those patients pay for certain arthritis therapies. Throughout her tenure, Dr. Woodcock has been an active liaison with the rheumatology community, crafting guidance on the development of arthritis medications, partnering on ways to measure a product's safety and effectiveness, and studying products once they go to market.
In ensuring that safe drugs continue to be developed and become available to the many arthritis sufferers across the country, Dr. Woodcock has remained constant in her dedication to alleviating the pain and suffering of arthritis patients, and so many others. She has insisted upon scientific rigor in the work FDA does.
She has herself said, "I am continually challenged to make sure that FDA's regulatory process remains the world's gold standard for drug approval and safety."
Those who know Dr. Woodcock would agree with me when I say she is a force to be reckoned with. We thank her for that, and along with the Arthritis Foundation, we salute her for all that she does to advance public health.
Margaret A. Hamburg, M.D., is the Commissioner of the Food and Drug Administration

A family of four caught on a river snag; one was rescued
CHICO, Calif. - A family of four had to be rescued from the Sacramento River in Butte County earlier Friday afternoon after their canoe and inner tube that was tied together got caught on a snag forcing rescuers to work quickly and rescue one of them.
The Collins family was the ones that caught got on a snag just south of Scottie's Landing.
Rescuers were called out around 5:30 p.m. after they got a call of a canoe and a inner tube that were tied together tipped over.
Don Collins was with his wife Edie and their two boys Nathaniel and Eric. Three of which were in the canoe and Eric was the one in the tube.
Once the boat and the tube tipped over, Eric jumped out and Don then went after him.
"I went against my better judgment and still tethered on," said Don Collins. "It happened so fast. Anyone who has been around water knows that it's powerful and you don't mess with it. The strength of the current just took us out."
Luckily no one was hurt and rescuers were able to get the boat and the tube back to the Collins.
Firefighters want to add that if you planned to go out to the river to cool down from this heat wave we are having, it's best to be careful and look out for those snags.

HEAD COACH Jim McElwain
General statement
"I can't tell you how proud I am of our guys. You have to invest on a daily basis to get what you want. Those who invested are with this program. I'm really proud of those guys; I'm really proud of the way they hung in there. We did not play a good football game by any stretch of the imagination. Plain and simple we have a long way to go. At the end of the day as good as it is for Colorado State, for our students, our faculty, our fans its great but its one game. As excited as I was for them, they have to realize we have a long, long way to go before I consider us a decent ball squad. My hat is off to the guys we played. They played their tails off. That's what a rivalry should be. Those who weren't here missed a heck of a ball game."
On Jared Roberts
"He did that all spring. He did it in the fall. The reason you're a kicker is your supposed to make it and he did it. One of the things we preach to our guys, just so everyone understands, is do your job. I don't care what your job is; just do it. That's with everyone who touches the organization, whether you're in the academic department, whether your in the training room, whether you're in the equipment room; do your job and be excellent at what you do. That's just a thing that we have."
On the muffed punt at the end of the half
"I tried to screw that up too. There again it goes back to win this play. Whatever you do win this play. Don't worry about anything else. The people who look at the scoreboard are the guys that are getting run over. It's something pretty simple. Don't worry about what happened just win the next play."
On how surprised he was CU didn't attempt a field goal in the fourth quarter
"I wasn't because you have half a yard to go. They're big guys, bigger than we are. I wasn't surprised by the call at all. I was thankful that they reviewed it because the ball was over the plain before it probably crossed the plain. That's what I'm saying. Win that play; our guys won that play.'
On the decision to run the ball on 3-and-10 prior to the Rams' final field goal
"It's one of those deals when we were in that range. Let's face it we weren't throwing the ball well. It's not like Joe Namath was out there slinging it around. Garrett (Grayson) did a great job. He did a great job of managing the game. What we ask our guys to do it let the people around you help you be successful because of how they're playing. We just felt right there our defense was playing pretty darn good. That look in their eyes I felt really comfortable with our defense."
On the team's increased confidence
"That's something that we've been preaching. Let me explain, the investment that these guys have put into what we've been doing and the foundation and through this process is something that I am very proud of. They believe. They believe in each other. Somewhere along the line you're going to stumble but the one thing that is constant is your family is always there to pick you up. These guys have done a great job of taking care of each other. Not caring what their area code is. When they get here they are Rams."
On the enhanced defensive pressure
"Part of getting after some guy is you're going to have to bring pressure from somewhere. I really thought our game plan going in was not only very sound but our guys did a great job of formation recognition and personnel substitution. They were responsible both physically and mentally to know what to anticipate. I thought the way our guys played defensively they were pretty good."
On if he was surprised with CSU's success at stopping the run
"Shocked might be a better statement. We preach gap control. You have to preach trust. To have a great defense you have to know that the defensive lineman is taking care of his responsibility so I can scrape to my responsibility. I thought our guys played very solid gap-control defense."
On Donnell Alexander's 37-yard run in the third quarter
"We knew that they were going to go start corners over and play man because they needed to get back into it. It was a great call by Dave (Baldwin)."
On CSU's young players
"All I heard about was how young the other team was. I never heard about how young we were. I was really proud of our guys because our young guys really stepped up and made some plays."
On penalties
"We had too many penalties. The things we didn't have were unforced errors; the illegal formations, offsides and all that kind of stuff. Obviously, two critical penalties in the special teams. Pass interference is going to happen; we'll take a look at it. If it was, it was. "
On his first win as a head coach
"It's been 27 years. The one thing you learn is it's never about you. I give up myself so others can get better. That's just who I am and how I've always been. I'm disappointed in how we played. I'm disappointed we didn't play crisper and execute how we should. I'm never satisfied that's just how I am. I'm sure 20 years from now when we look up and someone has a picture of the scoreboard I'll think 'that's pretty cool.' Right now I have to get this thing graded because we have a long way to go."
On Grayson
"I thought he got rid of it a little quick, which when they're bearing down on your I used to do the same thing. It'll be interesting to see. It'll be a great learning experience. The scheme they played against today has NFL written all over it. He was calm. I liked his eyes on the sideline. The game was not too big for him."
On the decision to go for it on fourth-and-one
"Stupidest decision ever. My dad was looking down and saying 'boy Jimmy you messed that one up.' The biggest thing is showing faith in your guys. I have faith in them. I told the defense if we don't get it I have trust in you."
On Chris Nwoke's injury
"There's nothing broken or anything like that. The guy has a bad ankle. Someone else has to step up. That hurt us a little bit because he's a good football player. He wanted to be out there."
QB Garrett Grayson
On the call to go for it on fourth down
"I was excited about it. We figured when we were going empty they were going coverage zero, every time we went empty."
On WR Joe Hansley
"What you guys saw today is what he's been doing all camp. We're going to use him in all different ways. We're all excited about him and he has a bright future here."
On the win and Coach McElwain
"It is a huge win. And it's a huge win for Coach Mac. First coach in CSU history that's ever beat CU in their first game. Knowing that, that brings more confidence out in us that we've got this coach here and he's with us. He's been coaching for 27 years and this is his first head coaching job so to have him be with us, we're behind him."
On his confidence
"I'm more confident than I ever have been before. I told everyone before the game that I've been playing football since I was four and I've never felt like I've had these brothers. And I go out there and I play for them and they play for me and I'm confident in them 100 percent."
LB Shaquil Barrett
On finishing the game strong
"That's what we've been working on a lot this spring, and this fall, and the summer too. Just finishing the fourth quarter. At halftime they said, we're gonna win this game in the fourth quarter. The coaches said, as long as we believe in each other and they believe in us, we're gonna pull it out.
On the change of culture because of this win
"It's a big step forward. I know everybody, like, we had like some incidents off field last spring, and we probably lost a couple fans that week, but Coach Mac has been instilling "do what's right" and we've been working on that since he's been here. That was the first thing he told us, to do what's right. On the field, off the field, go to class, do what's right. It's general, but it's specific too. You want to sleep in, but that's not doing what's right and Coach Mac's going to find out and you're going to get in trouble. Just do what's right."
On the difference between the feeling of last year's loss and this year's win
"It's a great feeling. I don't remember the last time I had this feeling because we went on a losing streak last year and it's been awhile. The emotions in the locker room were great, everybody had high energy, the scouts gave us a great look in practice, they did a real good job. Everybody's just real happy right now."
CB Momo Thomas
On what CSU did better in the second half to slow down CU's pass game
"We just came in at halftime and the coaches made some adjustments. We just played faster and harder and we were able to slow it down a little bit."
On the muffed punt before halftime
"It was a big momentum changer. Coach Mac just preached 'keep pushing, keep pushing' and we're going to fight through adversity. We did that a lot better today and we came away with the victory."
On winning the showdown
"It means a lot. The last four years we haven't won at (Sports Authority). It's just a great feeling. It means a lot to come out here and beat CU."
On the attitude of the locker room
"Everyone is really excited to get this first win and start 1-0. Coach said we have seven hours to enjoy it and we have to come back and play a really good team next week in the (D1-AA) national champions.)
C Weston Richburg
On what didn't work in the running game
"We have to stay on blocks longer. We'll be fine. Donnell (Alexander) did a great job today. He came in and really played well. Once we get more reps and get more game experience we will be fine."
On Donnell Alexander
"We saw him in the scrimmages over fall came and that guy can do it. He and Chris (Nwoke) can do it. I think we'll be fine."
On Garrett Grayson
"He's always poised. That guy isn't going to show any emotion or anything. He did at the end of the game but that is just because we were really excited. He's a cool customer in the huddle."

Kaspersky Anti-Virus 2012
REVIEW DATE : August 15, 2011
PROS: Very high ratings from independent testing labs. New File Advisor feature reveals file reputation. Fixes insecure Windows and Internet Explorer settings. Cleans up traces of computer and browser activity.
Designers at Russian security giant Kaspersky Lab decided to give their products a thorough facelift for 2012. Kaspersky Anti-Virus 2012 ($39.95 direct, $59.95 for three licenses) looks very different from the 2011 edition. As far as capabilities and test results go, though, it's déjà vu all over again. Just like last year's model Kaspersky's antivirus got great marks from the independent labs, but it didn't do as well in my hands-on tests.
Kaspersky's new look drops the familiar tabs-at-left format, opting instead for big buttons across the bottom. The recently-released BitDefender Antivirus Plus 2012 ($39.95 direct for three licenses, 4 stars) also got a complete makeover, and its layout is rather similar to Kaspersky's. Both even use a smartphone-style dot-slider to bring additional icons into view.
The big difference between the two is BitDefender's new "silent security" initiative. When its AutoPilot is turned on, it takes care of everything it can without involving the user. Kaspersky still pops up plentiful queries asking the user just how to handle certain threats. On the other hand, Kaspersky still has a relatively small footprint while BitDefender's new features made it so large I had to delete programs in order to fit it on my virtual machine test systems.
Proud of the Cloud
The new File Advisor feature gives users a direct view into what KSN knows about a file. Invoked by right-clicking the file, it shows the file's reputation and the number of Kaspersky-equipped computers where this file has been found. An expanded view also shows when the file was first sighted and details about its worldwide prevalence, among other details.
Kaspersky's URL Advisor browser plug-in has gained new flexibility. You can now set it to mark up out-of-domain links on all Web pages, not just search results. In addition, hovering the mouse over the red or green icon brings up a window that shows how Kaspersky has categorized the site.
This popup window also has a link for additional information. I expected that link to open a page of detailed information about the specific site in question, the kind you get from Norton Safe Web. Alas, it just brings up a description of the Kaspersky Security Network.
Successful Installation, Troubled Cleanup
Kaspersky got right to work. On half of the test systems it popped up a malware detection warning and offered to run a "special disinfection" process as soon as the installation finished. After special disinfection it rebooted the system and automatically ran a full scan. Several other systems got the special disinfection offer at the end of the full scan. Cleanup took quite a while, due to these multiple scans.
On one test system Kaspersky very visibly failed to remove a particular rootkit. It offered special disinfection over and over, endlessly. I used a built-in tool to create a Rescue CD and booted from that. The rescue CD scan detected the same threat and claimed to remove it, but on rebooting back into Windows the problem was unchanged. I went back and forth with Kaspersky support for days, running scripts and special tools and sending them logs, but they never did manage to remove it.
Something similar happened during my review of Kaspersky Anti-Virus 2011 ($59.95 direct for three licenses, 3.5 stars), though a different threat was involved and tech support did eventually delete the infestation. I don't know how many users would have the patience to work this hard with an antivirus product that clearly didn't do its job.
Unimpressive Malware Cleanup
Worse, Kaspersky didn't do a very good job removing what it found. Its score of 5.7 is just average. These figures are marginally better than last years's Kaspersky antivirus, which detected 74 percent of the previous malware collection and scored 5.6 points.
Kaspersky fared poorly in my breakout tests for specific malware types. Four products have detected 100 percent of the rootkit samples in my current collection; Kaspersky detected 71 percent. Two of the rootkits were still running after they were reportedly removed. Kaspersky's rootkit score of 3.9 points isn't the lowest among recent products, but it's plenty low.
Six products have detected 100 percent of the scareware samples in my current collection, and five of them scored 9.5 points for scareware removal. Kaspersky detected 75 percent and scored 6.3, sharing the lowest recent score with Outpost Antivirus Pro 7.5 ($29.95 direct for three licenses, 3 stars).
I was surprised at these low scores and asked my Kaspersky contacts if perhaps some settings should be different. They offered a complex set of instructions for scanning in Safe Mode and changing eight settings to enable a deep scan. This, too, is something that happened during the review of the previous version.
I ran a deep scan on each of the test systems, with disappointing results. Kaspersky didn't detect any additional threats. Its overall malware detection score rose to 5.9. Given that the average user won't go through these elaborate steps, I elected to stick with the original scores. For details on how I derive these scores see How We Test Malware Removal.
Kaspersky Anti-Virus 2012 malware removal chart
Average Malware Blocking
Kaspersky detected 91 percent of the threats. Looking just at products tested with my current malware collection, only Outpost (94 percent) and TrustPort Antivirus 2012 ($39.95 direct, 3.5 stars) (97 percent) have detected more.
Kaspersky's overall score for malware blocking is 8.2 points, which is about average. G Data AntiVirus 2012 ($29.95 direct, 3.5 stars) also detected 91 percent of the threats, but it came away with the top score of the current group, 9.0 points. The difference is that several of the threats Kaspersky detected managed to install and run despite antivirus protection.
Looking specifically at threats using rootkit technology, Kaspersky joins the 100 percent club. Of all the products tested using my current malware collection, only Panda Antivirus Pro 2012 ($49.99/year direct for three licenses, 3 stars) failed to detect 100 percent. Kaspersky's score of 8.9 points for rootkit blocking is quite good.
As for scareware (rogue security software), Kaspersky detected 80 percent of the threats and scored 8.0 points. ZoneAlarm Antivirus + Firewall 2012 ($59.95 direct for three licenses, 3 stars) detected 100 percent of the scareware, as did G Data, Panda, and Trustport.
Overall Kaspersky's malware blocking performance was decent but not outstanding. For details on how I derive malware blocking scores see How We Test Malware Blocking.
Kaspersky Anti-Virus 2012 malware blocking chart
High Praise from Independent Labs
AV-Test.org runs a certification test each quarter, cycling through Windows 7, XP, and Vista. Kaspersky scored 16 out of 18 possible points in the most recent test, beaten only by BitDefender with 17 points. Over the last three tests Kaspersky averaged 15.17 points, once again beaten only by BitDefender, which averaged 16 points.
AV-Comparatives.org tests each antivirus program's ability to clean up malware on demand. They also run a separate test that deliberately uses outdated malware signatures, in effect testing the product's handling of unknown threats. Kaspersky scored ADVANCED+, the highest rating, in the latest runs of both tests. Avira also aced both tests.
The following chart summarizes lab test results. For details on how I derive the ratings see How We Interpret Antivirus Lab Tests.
Kaspersky Anti-Virus 2012 lab tests chart
Limited Phishing Protection
Granted, this score is better than Kaspersky Internet Security 2011 ($79.95 direct for three licenses, 4 stars) and Kaspersky PURE Total Security ($89.95 direct for three licenses, 4 stars), which lagged behind Norton by 70 and 80 percent respectively. My advice; leave Internet Explorer's SmartScreen Filter turned on. The combination of Kaspersky and IE came in just 15 percentage points behind Norton. The article How We Test Antiphishing explains exactly how I derive these scores.
Kaspersky Anti-Virus 2012 antiphishing chart
Additional Scans
Its vulnerability scan doesn't bother to look for missing Windows patches, since those are handled by Automatic Updates. Instead, it looks for incorrect settings in Windows and selected applications, settings that could expose your system to attack. You can click a button to fix Windows problems. For problems like outdated browser plug-ins Kaspersky offers a link to instructions on fixing the problem.
Kaspersky's browser configuration check specifically looks at Internet Explorer, not at other browsers. Like the vulnerability scan it reports on insecure settings and offers to fix them.
The Privacy Cleaner tool offers to protect your privacy by erasing browser traces and other data that might reveal more than you wish about your activities. Like the other additional scans it includes an option to roll back some or all of its actions.
Plusses and Minuses
And yet, its ratings in tests from the independent labs are among the very best. Many of those tests simply involve static detection of inactive malware, but some challenge the product to clean up infested systems. Kaspersky's 3.5 star rating reflects these various plusses and minuses.

So I hear the forty whiners have some nutjobs claiming Jacobs is a double agent. Can you imagine if this is true? Imaging jacobs purposely messing up the practice squad/scout team with mis information.
Hey you. You run a 4.4 right? Your going to play manning, number 10. Now manning when he gets out of the pocket he usually tucks the ball and runs.
Or you Your bear pascoe. Just think Jason Whitten with hops like Jordan.
Your going to by hynoski. Very illusive, sometimes lines up in the slot or as a wide out.
Now the giants very often use trick plays, reverse, flee flicker, be ready for that stuff.
Now remember. If you ever see Bradhshaw single back on a long third down, watch out for eli to run the option right they NEVER run a draw.
The giants D is mostly a 3/4 do not run Osi's way he is like the great wall of china. great inside bull move as well.
Now the giants play very conservative. Most of the passes are going to be less then 10 yards like chad pedington.
Victor cruz is a lot like wayne Chrevet.
Ahmad Bradshaw is blind in his left eye. blitz from that side he wont see you coming.

Discussion in 'Chevy Silverado Forum (GMC Sierra)' started by RedTruck!, Apr 23, 2013.
Right from my 2010 1500s owners manual 140ft/lbs
You are good with 120-140ftlbs on the wheels and for the drain plug i just go snug plus a little more. as for using Air tools on wheels you can use them on alloy wheels or steel and if done correctly with the proper sockets and torque sticks you should have no problem removing the lug nuts with hand tools. I do it on my truck at the shop all the time and have no problem removing them with a breaker bar or a longer 1/2in ratchet
our biggest problem is service managers were never wrench turners,just quick on the keyboard to keep the money flowing!i owned a garage for quite a while and fixed many a problem from them,i.e. retorqeing wheels to clear up warped rotors,thank god for the help rack for oversized drain plugs,they have the diagnostic ability with g.m.,ill leave it at that!
drain plugs shpuld never be put on with an impact! i have done wheel lug nuts with a impact to take them off, then back on, but i use the lowest air settting just to get them started, then i get the torque qrench out and torque to 135....
never had an issue.
alright for all the Impact haters out their this is what i use(not same brand) I have never had a problem with wheels coming off or being overly tight, i have even checked them against a torque wrench and have always been withing 2-3 ftlbs using the highest setting on my impact
I guess that I will be torquing them to 120 from now on.
