SHAPED To Serve God
Introduction "Elvis never came to terms with who he was meant to be, or what his purpose in life was. He thought he was here for a reason: maybe to preach, maybe to serve, maybe to save, maybe to care for people. That agonizing desire was always with him, and he knew he wasn't fulfilling it. So, he'd go on stage and he wouldn't have to think about it."

Now, it should be noted that the max rating quoted above is achieved with the Ford F-450. The 2015 F-350, which is perhaps a better comparison to the Ram 3500 HD pickup that claimed the towing crown in 2013 at an even 30,000 pounds, is capped at 26,500 pounds, either with a gooseneck or when towing a fifth-wheel trailer. In any case, it's going to take a load the size of Godzilla to make any of the current crop of fullsize heavy-duty pickup trucks break into a sweat. For those keeping track, Chevy rates its 2015 Silverado HD at a maximum of 23,200 pounds.
Ford's newfound pulling power comes courtesy of a larger turbocharger for its in-house Power Stroke engine, new fuel injector tips and, we'd assume, retuned computer controls. Besides the engine enhancements, the F-350 gets a wider front track for 2015 and new front springs, while the F-450 gains commercial-grade 19.5-inch wheels and tires, new rear U-joints, leaf springs, stabilizer bars and shocks. The steering and brake systems have also been upgraded.
A full press release announcing the Super Duty changes and specifications for 2015 can be found below.
• Second-generation 6.7-liter Power Stroke® V8 turbo diesel boosts horsepower to a class-leading 440 horsepower; torque to class-leading 860 lb.-ft. for all models
• F-450 chassis upgrades raise maximum gooseneck trailer towing capacity to class-leading 31,200 pounds, fifth wheel towing capacity to class-leading 26,500 pounds, and gross combined weight rating to a class-leading 40,000 pounds
• F-350 available with maximum towing package that increases fifth-wheel/gooseneck trailer towing capacity to 26,500 pounds, and raises the gross combined weight rating to 35,000 pounds
HOUSTON – March 5, 2014 – Ford F-Series Super Duty reinforces its leadership in the heavy-duty pickup truck market with engine and chassis upgrades for 2015 that together deliver best-in-class horsepower, torque and towing capacity.
Ford's second-generation 6.7-liter Power Stroke® V8 turbo diesel now boasts 440 horsepower, up from 400 horsepower, and 860 lb.-ft. of torque, up from 800 lb.-ft, across all Super Duty models from F-250 to F-450.
The 2015 F-450 tops the F-Series Super Duty pickup truck lineup with maximum towing capacity increasing to a class-leading 31,200 pounds, a gain of 6,500 pounds. The truck's gross combined weight rating increases to a class-leading 40,000 pounds, a gain of 7,000 pounds.
F-350 increases maximum towing capacity as well, to 26,500 pounds, from 23,200 pounds, and the gross combined weight rating goes up 5,000 pounds to 35,000 pounds.
The improved ratings are a result of designing and engineering the truck as an integrated system. The approach enabled Ford engineers to optimize performance across the full Super Duty lineup.
"Our chassis people work in unison with our powertrain people to develop more than a great truck, it's a machine engineered for work," said Doug Scott, Ford Truck group marketing manager. "We're the only manufacturer that develops and builds our own powertrains in this class and when you combine that with a chassis that's purpose-built for best-in-class power and torque, you can feel the result in the way it drives, especially when towing big loads."
"Our chassis people have worked in unison with our powertrain people to develop more than a great truck – it's a machine engineered for work," he adds.
Power Stroke Engine Improvements
The 2015 Super Duty achieves best-in-class towing performance with a second-generation 6.7-liter Power Stroke V8 turbo diesel engine that was further developed to provide more power, torque and efficiency.
"The 6.7-liter Power Stroke was already a stout engine," said Robert Fascetti, Ford vice president powertrain engineering. "The improvements we've made essentially give Super Duty customers an engine designed for our larger F-650 and F-750 trucks. They may not realize how tough this engine really is."
Key innovations on the 6.7-liter Power Stroke V8 turbo diesel are its compacted graphite iron engine block and reverse-flow layout. This segment-exclusive design places the exhaust inside the engine's V-shape, with while the air intake positioned on the outside resulting in a variety of advancements:
• Shorter airflow from the exhaust system to the new, larger turbocharger sitting between the engine's cylinder banks improves turbo responsiveness – key to providing torque quickly to truck customers when they need it most
• Positioning the turbo inside the engine's valley helps isolate the engine's hottest temperatures, improving performance and efficiency, while also reducing noise, vibration and harshness to improve driver comfort
Enhancements include a larger turbocharger for faster air displacement resulting in more power. The engine block is made of compacted graphite iron, which is stronger yet lighter than cast iron, is more wear-resistant and has enhanced sealing properties.
"The designers of the original 6.7-liter Power Stroke V8 turbo diesel predicted that it would eventually need to be upgraded for higher output," said David Ives, Ford Power Stroke technical specialist. "They designed it in a way that made it easier to add a larger turbocharger, increasing airflow and creating more power for dramatically improved performance, yet we haven't lost any efficiency."
New injector tips spray a finer mist of fuel into the cylinders which provides a more complete burn and helps reduceing noise, vibration and harshness. Other benefits include lower emissions and less fuel deposit buildup on the intake valves over time.
The engine enhancements give the Power Stroke engine a class-leading maximum output of 440 horsepower and 860 lb.-ft. of torque.
Chassis improvements
The F-350 is available with a high-capacity towing package that includes new front springs and a wide track axle, increasing the gross combined weight rating with the 6.7-liter Power Stroke engine from 31,900 pounds to 35,000 pounds.
Improvements to the F-450 that allow it to handle the increased tow rating include commercial- grade 19.5-inch wheels and tires; upgraded rear U-joints and suspension components, including new rear leaf springs; front and rear stabilizer bars; and shocks. The steering system has stronger gears and linkages and the fifth-wheel/gooseneck has an increased towing capacity. The brakes are larger brakes and feature new antilock brake calibration for enhanced braking performance.

A Journey in Other Worlds HTML version
swamps to the south!" exclaimed Col. Bearwarden. "The Lake Superior mines and the
reclamation of the Florida Everglades would be nothing to this."
"Any inhabitants we may find here have so much land at their disposal that they will not
need to drain swamps on account of pressure of population for some time," put in the
"I hope we may find some four-legged inhabitants," said Ayrault, thinking of their
explosive magazine rifles. "If Jupiter is passing through its Jurassic or Mesozoic period,
there must be any amount of some kind of game." Just then a quiver shook the Callisto,
and glancing to the right they noticed one of the volcanoes in violent eruption. Smoke
filled the air in clouds, hot stones and then floods of lava poured from the crater, while
even the walls of the hermetically sealed Callisto could not arrest the thunderous crashes
that made the interior of the car resound.
"Had we not better move on?" said Bearwarden, and accordingly they went toward the
woods they had first seen. Finding a firm strip of land between the forest and an arm of
the sea, they gently grounded the Callisto, and not being altogether sure how the
atmosphere of their new abode would suit terrestrial lungs, or what its pressure to the
square inch might be, they cautiously opened a port-hole a crack, retaining their hold
upon it with its screw. Instantly there was a rush and a whistling sound as of escaping
steam, while in a few moments their barometer stood at thirty-six inches, whereupon they
closed the opening.
"I fancy," said Dr. Cortlandt, "we had better wait now till we become accustomed to this
pressure. I do not believe it will go much higher, for the window made but little
resistance when we shut it."
Finding they were not inconvenienced by a pressure but little greater than that of a deep
coal-mine, they again opened the port, whereupon their barometer showed a further rise
to forty-two, and then remained stationary. Finding also that the chemical composition of
the air suited them, and that they had no difficulty in breathing, the pressure being the
same as that sustained by a diver in fourteen feet of water, they opened a door and
emerged. They knew fairly well what to expect, and were not disturbed by their new
conditions. Though they had apparently gained a good deal in weight as a result of their
ethereal journey, this did not incommode them; for though Jupiter's volume is thirteen
hundred times that of the earth, on account of its lesser specific gravity, it has but three
hundred times the mass--i. e., it would weigh but three hundred times as much. Further,
although a cubic foot of water or anything else weighs 2.5 as much as on earth, objects
near the equator, on account of Jupiter's rapid rotation, weigh one fifth less than they do
at the poles, by reason of the centrifugal force. Influenced by this fact, and also because
they were 483,000,000 miles from the sun, instead of 92,000,000 as on earth, they had
steered for the northern limit of Jupiter's tropics. And, in addition to this, they could
easily apply the apergetic power in any degree to themselves when beyond the limits of
the Callisto, and so be attracted to any extent, from twice the pull they receive from
gravitation on earth to almost nothing.

Martin Chuzzlewit HTML version
Chapter 38
In walking from the city with his sentimental friend, Tom Pinch had looked into
the face, and brushed against the threadbare sleeve, of Mr Nadgett, man of
mystery to the Anglo-Bengalee Disinterested Loan and Life Assurance Company.
Mr Nadgett naturally passed away from Tom's remembrance as he passed out of
his view; for he didn't know him, and had never heard his name.
As there are a vast number of people in the huge metropolis of England who rise
up every morning not knowing where their heads will rest at night, so there are a
multitude who shooting arrows over houses as their daily business, never know
on whom they fall. Mr Nadgett might have passed Tom Pinch ten thousand
times; might even have been quite familiar with his face, his name, pursuits, and
character; yet never once have dreamed that Tom had any interest in any act or
mystery of his. Tom might have done the like by him of course. But the same
private man out of all the men alive, was in the mind of each at the same
moment; was prominently connected though in a different manner, with the day's
adventures of both; and formed, when they passed each other in the street, the
one absorbing topic of their thoughts.
Why Tom had Jonas Chuzzlewit in his mind requires no explanation. Why Mr
Nadgett should have had Jonas Chuzzlewit in his, is quite another thing.
But, somehow or other, that amiable and worthy orphan had become a part of
the mystery of Mr Nadgett's existence. Mr Nadgett took an interest in his lightest
proceedings; and it never flagged or wavered. He watched him in and out of the
Assurance Office, where he was now formally installed as a Director; he dogged
his footsteps in the streets; he stood listening when he talked; he sat in coffee-
rooms entering his name in the great pocket-book, over and over again; he wrote
letters to himself about him constantly; and, when he found them in his pocket,
put them in the fire, with such distrust and caution that he would bend down to
watch the crumpled tinder while it floated upwards, as if his mind misgave him,
that the mystery it had contained might come out at the chimney-pot.
And yet all this was quite a secret. Mr Nadgett kept it to himself, and kept it close.
Jonas had no more idea that Mr Nadgett's eyes were fixed on him, than he had
that he was living under the daily inspection and report of a whole order of
Jesuits. Indeed Mr Nadgett's eyes were seldom fixed on any other objects than
the ground, the clock, or the fire; but every button on his coat might have been an
eye, he saw so much.
The secret manner of the man disarmed suspicion in this wise; suggesting, not
that he was watching any one, but that he thought some other man was watching
him. He went about so stealthily, and kept himself so wrapped up in himself, that
the whole object of his life appeared to be, to avoid notice and preserve his own
mystery. Jonas sometimes saw him in the street, hovering in the outer office,
waiting at the door for the man who never came, or slinking off with his
immovable face and drooping head, and the one beaver glove dangling before
him; but he would as soon have thought of the cross upon the top of St. Paul's

The Neighborhood
This location is in the heart of the entertainment, artistic, designer areas where an international and national array of creatives mix and create or enjoy the simply incredible weather of Los Angeles, which has a virtually perfect climate. Never too humid or too hot or too cold. Just right. But remember, Los Angeles always cools in the evening...so remember a sweater at night. Lots of movie theaters, clubs and entertainment nearby.
Lots to see and do, whether intellectual, physical or artistic or emotional. Gyms to work out, or take a walk/hike in Runyon Canyon in the Hollywood Hills and hobnob with stars doing their daily walk, with or without their dogs. Take Vista north to the entrance or Fuller north to the entrance. See the best view of Los Angeles from downtown to the ocean as you walk Runyon...or choose between 3 different walks in that famous canyon.. An oasis in the heart of the city.
Visit Griffith Park and see the newly remodeled observatory or ride and/or jump horses at the L.A. Equestrian Center. Head out to the beach by driving west on Sunset to the end. You'll pass by Beverly Hills, the campus of U.C.L.A., Bel Air, Brentwood, Holmby Hills, Westwood, Pacific Palisades until you get to Will Rogers State Park and Will Rogers state beach. But beware of when you travel. Traffic in that part of town can get difficult.
Great location and lovely apartment.

The apartment was very nice, clean and very close to the places of interest of Los Angeles. Duke and his wife are wonderful hosts and very helpful persons. We would recommend them and the apartment for every person, who would experience one of the beautifulest cities on earth. Thank you so much!
Thank you Duke for a wonderful stay and all the great restaurant recommendations, many of which we tried and enjoyed very much!
The apartment was perfect for us. Spacious, very clean and equipped with everything we could possibly need during our stay. The benefit of a bathroom per room is amazing. The location in west hollywood is perfect, we were able to get most of the places we visited within minutes. One day we even walked from hollywood walk of fame within 5 to 10 mins.
There is also a supermarket (Ralph's) a few minutes walk away which was very convenient. I would highly recommend this apartment for your stay in LA.
Very nice place. Conveniently close (15 min walk) to metro, which is a good idea as traffic is horrible in LA. Spacious apartment with all the necessary stuff. Duke and his son Dennis take good care of matters. We would certainly book this place again.
Just Got back from a stay at Dukes Place it is in a perfect location less than 5 minutes from Hollywood boulevard, in fact you can see it from the balcony. the apartment is clean, quiet and secure. And it has everything you would need and more. Both Duke and His son Dennis are really nice guys If I ever get to Hollywood again Duke will be getting a call from me !!!
The apartment was very nice, clean and very close to the places of interest of Los Angeles. Duke and his wife are wonderful hosts and very helpful persons. We would recommend them and the apartment for every person, who would experience one of the beautiful cities on earth. Thank you so much, to enable this great time. We definitely see us again!
This suite was perfectly located close to Hollywood boulvard, the suite was nice ! The kitcken was well equiped with everything we needed, the garage was also easy to entrance both from the suite and from outside. The host Duke was nice to talk to and very helpful. Best recommendations !!!
First of all we would like to thank Duke who was very kind and helpful for all types of questions and needs - this is much more than you can expect!
The apartment was perfect for our 10 days stay in LAX with our two kids (15/13): a one minute walk to Sunset Blvd., 10 minutes to Hollywood Blvd. (Walk of Fame), 20 minutes by car to Universal, and so on. The photos really present the apartment like it is: spacious, clean, a quiet house. The only thing you hear is the traffic from La Brea Av. but never annoying.
We definitely recommend this apartment. Thank you very much Duke, hope to see you again!
My stay in Los Angeles with Duke was perfect.
Apartment as described, great location and very kind.
I recommend to all of Wimdu. Five stars .... Thanks Duke ...
We stayed in the 3 bed apartment and it was fantastic! The place is very clean and we looked after it just like our own home. We were very sad to leave the place. Duke & Van are very helpful and gave us tonnes of pointers with where to go, what to look out for. The recommendations were brilliant for food, trips etc.
Excellent location and will be back in LA for sure! Amazing communication from Duke with fair and reasonable house rules just like you would in your own home.
BIG THANKS to Duke & Van. See you again soon.
David, John, John & Jack x
The 1 bedroom in the heart of Hollywood is in a perfect location. Duke is an angel who goes out of his way to help and make sure everything is ok. The unit is comfortable and clean. Would definitely stay here again.

Ms. Lee of California (for herself, Ms. Edwards of Maryland, Mr. Rush, Mr. Grijalva, Ms. Bordallo, Mr. Frank of Massachusetts, Mr. Hinchey, Ms. Norton, Ms. Speier, Mr. Deutch, Mr. Stark, Ms. Woolsey, Mr. Rangel, Mr. Johnson of Georgia, Ms. Baldwin, Mr. Polis of Colorado, Ms. McCollum, Ms. DeLauro, Mr. Cohen, Ms. Roybal-Allard, Mr. Serrano, Mr. Conyers, Mr. Meeks of New York, Mrs. Christensen, Mr. Payne, and Mr. Ellison) submitted the following concurrent resolution; which was referred to the Committee on Energy and Commerce, and in addition to the Committee on Foreign Affairs, for a period to be subsequently determined by the Speaker, in each case for consideration of such provisions as fall within the jurisdiction of the committee concerned
Supporting the goals and ideals of World AIDS Day.
Whereas the Joint United Nations Programme on HIV/AIDS (UNAIDS) estimates that since the identification of AIDS in 1981, more than 60,000,000 people have been infected with HIV, and nearly 30,000,000 people have died of AIDS worldwide;
Whereas in 2009, UNAIDS estimated that 33,300,000 people were living with HIV around the world, 1,800,000 people died of AIDS-related illnesses, and another 2,600,000 people were newly infected;
Whereas 260,000 children under the age of 15 died from AIDS in 2009, while 2,500,000 children were living with HIV, 90 percent of whom reside in Sub-Saharan Africa;
Whereas each day over 1,000 children under the age of 15 become newly infected with HIV, and worldwide 53 percent of pregnant women in low and middle income countries receive services to prevent HIV transmission to their newborns;
Whereas the proportion of women living with HIV has remained stable at slightly less than 52 percent of the global total;
Whereas developing countries continue to bear the brunt of the AIDS pandemic with Sub-Saharan Africa accounting for 68 percent of all adults and children living with HIV, 60 percent of whom are women and girls;
Whereas people living with HIV/AIDS are frequently susceptible to other opportunistic infections, and according to the World Health Organization, in 2008 approximately 1,400,000 people living with HIV were also estimated to be co-infected with tuberculosis;
Whereas the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) estimates that in the United States, more than 1,100,000 people are living with HIV, and 21 percent do not know they are infected;
Whereas a total of 597,499 people have died of AIDS in the United States from the beginning of the HIV/AIDS epidemic through 2007;
Whereas each year 56,300 people become newly infected with HIV in the United States, and on average, an individual is infected with HIV every 9½ minutes;
Whereas at the end of 2007, African-Americans represented 48 percent of all people living with HIV in the United States, Whites represented 33 percent, Hispanics represented 17 percent, Asian-Americans and Pacific Islanders represented 1 percent, and American Indians and Alaska Natives represented less than 1 percent;
Whereas men who have sex with men (MSM), particularly young MSM of color, have represented an increasing share of new HIV infections over the past decade and in 2008 MSM accounted for 54 percent of all new infections;
Whereas men account for 73 percent of all people living with HIV in the United States, and women represent 27 percent;
Whereas in the United States, African-American women are 18 times more likely to become newly infected with HIV than White women, and Hispanic women are 5 times more likely to have AIDS than non-Hispanic White women;
Whereas 5,259 young people aged 13 to 24 were newly diagnosed with HIV/AIDS in 2006, representing about 14 percent of all new diagnoses in the United States during that year;
Whereas in the United States as of November 2010, approximately 4,157 people across 9 States have been placed on waiting lists to receive AIDS treatment through the AIDS Drug Assistance Program authorized through the Ryan White CARE Act;
Whereas in order to address the HIV/AIDS epidemic in the United States, the Ryan White HIV/AIDS Treatment Extension Act of 2009 was enacted into law on October 30, 2009, reauthorizing Federal HIV/AIDS care and treatment programs for 4 years and making funding available to United States metropolitan areas, States, and service providers to assist affected families and persons living with HIV/AIDS with healthcare and support services;
Whereas to further focus attention on the HIV/AIDS epidemic among minority communities in the United States, in 1998, Congress and the Clinton Administration created the Minority AIDS Initiative to provide funds to State and local institutions and organizations to best serve the healthcare costs and support the needs of racial and ethnic minorities living with HIV/AIDS;
Whereas Congress provided $1,400,000 for the Office of National AIDS Policy (ONAP) within the White House in the FY2009 Omnibus Appropriations Act and the FY2010 Omnibus Appropriations Act in order to develop a National AIDS Strategy to better coordinate and guide the Nation's response to HIV/AIDS;
Whereas ONAP conducted a series of town halls across the country to solicit feedback directly from communities impacted by HIV/AIDS in order to provide a basis for developing a National AIDS Strategy;
Whereas, on July 13, 2010, ONAP released the "National AIDS Strategy for the United States" along with an accompanying "Federal Implementation Plan" to achieve the goals of reducing new HIV infections, increasing access to care and improving health outcomes for people living with HIV, reducing HIV-related disparities and health inequities, and achieving a more coordinated national response to the HIV epidemic;
Whereas, on April 7, 2009, the CDC launched a new communication campaign, "Act Against AIDS", to facilitate awareness, public education, health literacy, health care provider marketing, and highly targeted behavior change communication objectives in the fight against HIV/AIDS;
Whereas to address the global HIV/AIDS epidemic, in 2000, Congress passed the Global AIDS and Tuberculosis Relief Act, providing the first contribution and the founding framework for what became the Global Fund to Fight AIDS, Tuberculosis, and Malaria, which provides grants to developing countries to combat the 3 diseases;
Whereas since the Global Fund was created in 2002, donors have pledged more than $30,000,000,000 in funding, including $9,547,000,000 by the United States, of which more than $5,130,000,000 has already been donated;
Whereas as of December 2010, the Global Fund has supported treatment to over 3,000,000 people for HIV/AIDS, directly observed treatment to 7,700,000 people for tuberculosis, and over 160,000,000 insecticide treated-bednets to fight malaria, saving an estimated 6,500,000 lives;
Whereas in order to further address the global HIV/AIDS epidemic, in 2008, Congress reauthorized the President's Emergency Plan for AIDS Relief (PEPFAR) through the Tom Lantos and Henry J. Hyde United States Global Leadership Against HIV/AIDS, Tuberculosis, and Malaria Reauthorization Act, authorizing $48,000,000,000 over 5 years to combat the 3 diseases;
Whereas, between fiscal years 2009 and 2013, PEPFAR programs aim to support care for 12,000,000 HIV-affected people, including children orphaned by AIDS, support the prevention of 12,000,000 new HIV infections; and help at least 4,000,000 people receive antiretroviral treatment;
Whereas, as of September 30, 2010, PEPFAR had supported the treatment of 3,200,000 people and in FY2010 alone supported the prevention of mother-to-child HIV transmission for more than 600,000 HIV-positive pregnant women, allowing more than 114,000 infants to be born HIV-free, while directly supporting care for 11,000,000 people, including 3,800,000 orphans and vulnerable children;
Whereas, between 2004 and 2010, Congress provided approximately $31,385,000,000 to combat global HIV/AIDS through PEPFAR and the Global Fund;
Whereas as a result of these and other efforts, the rate of new HIV infections has declined by 19 percent since 1999 and the number of AIDS-related deaths has declined by 19 percent between 2004 and 2009, due in part to the expansion of HIV/AIDS prevention and treatment programs;
Whereas since the availability of effective HIV/AIDS treatments and the increasing availability of treatments to prevent mother to child transmission of HIV, approximately 5,200,000 people are currently receiving antiretroviral therapy, an increase of 30 percent since 2008, and the number of children infected with HIV through mother to child transmission has been reduced by 24 percent since 2004;
Whereas in 2001, representatives and heads of state of 189 countries, including the United States, convened at the first-ever Special Session of the United Nations General Assembly on HIV/AIDS and unanimously adopted the Declaration of Commitment on HIV/AIDS;

Whereas in 2006, the United Nations General Assembly convened a High Level Meeting on AIDS, pledging to move toward the goal of universal access to comprehensive prevention programs, treatment, care, and support by 2010;
Whereas in 2008, the United Nations General Assembly convened a second High Level Meeting on AIDS to review progress towards achieving the goal of universal access and the Declaration of Commitment on HIV/AIDS;
Whereas the concept of World AIDS Day originated at the 1988 World Summit of Ministers of Health on Programmes for AIDS Prevention and was established to focus attention on the HIV/AIDS pandemic;
Whereas December 1 is now recognized as World AIDS Day and has been taken up by governments, international organizations, and charities around the world; and
Whereas the theme of World AIDS Day 2010 is "Universal Access and Human Rights" and is intended to focus attention on the goal of providing universal access to HIV/AIDS prevention, treatment, care, and support programs and the fundamental need to support and protect human rights for all people, particularly vulnerable and marginalized populations, in order to achieve this goal: Now, therefore, be it
Resolved by the House of Representatives (the Senate concurring), That Congress—
(1) supports the goals and ideals of World AIDS Day and recognizes the 22nd anniversary of observing this day;

(9) supports the goal of protecting human rights for all people, including vulnerable and marginalized populations such as men who have sex with men, injecting drug users, and sex workers; and

Inside and Outside Gresham's Law
By JOHN CANADAY ();
November 03, 1968,
, Section ARTS AND LEISURE, Page D31, Column , words
CHECKING against the Columbia Encyclopedia to be sure I had it right, I discover Gresham's Law stated thus: "When depreciated, mutilated, or debased coinage (or currency) is in concurrent circulation with money of high value in terms of precious metals, the good money automatically disappears."

2010 For the Fans: A Small Update
GTAGaming.com - Community News | @ 02:05 PM MDT | By Ash_735
As most of us know Rockstar is busy with Red Dead Redemption and it's DLC along with a load of other projects that still need to come out, such as L.A.Noire and Max Payne 3, so news and announcements regarding Grand Theft Auto are a bit on the slim side. In that case this post is to just highlight some of the fan videos that have been posted on our forums.
First up we have a new machinima posted by Slapdown called "Two Steps Ahead":
Here we have a couple of videos by forum poster Big Fella, who goes under the name DanK in his videos, giving us a stunt montage and trying something different with a sky diving video:
To end the fan videos off here is a short and sweet NRG stunt montage video by ucantrunaway:
We do appreciate the video submissions on the forums and look forward to what new and interesting ideas you guys can come up with! Just as a reminder, Rockstar Games are hosting another Multiplayer Event for the Xbox 360 version of Grand Theft Auto: Episodes From Liberty City on the 30th of September 2010 between 4pm and 7pm EST. Also, there is little over a month left to cast your vote in the 28th Annual Golden Joystick Awards, voting ends on the 25th of October 2010. As mentioned in a previous news post:
This year Grand Theft Auto: Chinatown Wars appears in both the Downloadable Game of The Year and the Portable Game of The Year categories. Grand Theft Auto: Episodes from Liberty City makes an appearance in the Soundtrack of The Year category and Rockstar North shows up as a contender for the UK Developer of The Year.
Of course Rockstars latest game Red Dead Redemption has managed to get into the shortlist to, appearing in the Action Game of The Year and the Ultimate Game of The Year categories.
To wrap things up, nestled between all the Red Dead Redemption posts on News Wire, Rockstar are currently holding a small video editing competition, this one being titled "Fight Club", where the winner will receive a custom built "Liberty City Cage Fighter" PC:
You can read more about that and the Rules over on the Rockstar News Wire page.

CON EDISON DENIES LACK OF PLANNING CUT DOWN POWER; Tells P.S.C. Labor Shortage, Peak Use and Construction Delays Were Factors Con Edison Denies Lack of Planning

I am Thor Astrup Pedersen, a danish software engineer and Tricking practitioner.

But!.. I am not just a passionated programmer, I am also a really passionated Tricker. I learned of Tricking in january 2006, but had at that point

Today i run (and started) the Aarhus Tricking team/family, based in the VIK gym in Aarhus, Denmark, where we are around 20 trickers.

Enriched Google online experience now available in every new BMW
September 20th, 2010 | Published in Google Earth
Google is working with the automotive industry to bring Google innovations and services into cars, and to give our users access to relevant information while driving. BMW has always been a pioneer in this area, and well known for its Internet-connected cars and ConnectedDrive product.
Today, we're happy to announce that in a joint effort with BMW, we have renewed the package of Google services that come with BMW's ConnectedDrive service. As part of this major update, if you're a ConnectedDrive customer in Germany, Austria, France, Italy and the U.K., you'll have access to several exciting Google services you've never before experienced in a car.
BMW is introducing these services in every new car equipped with a professional navigation system as of September 2010.
So what's new?
Firstly, we're introducing search suggestions for Google Local Search.
We know that input mechanisms in your vehicle are sometimes limited and time-consuming. To enter a search query, you often need to know exactly what you're looking for.
To address this challenge, cars with our new service package will provide suggested results after you enter the first few characters - similar to what you're used to on Google's desktop web search. Suggestions are based on your location and will surely speed up your search. Once you've tried this in your car, you'll never want to leave home any other way!
With only a couple of characters, you'll be guided to the information you want that has been fully integrated in your navigation experience. How about finding the nearest hotel with only a few keystrokes and a bit of "jog-wheeling"?
Secondly, we're beefing up the usefulness of your results via a "pictures at your destination" service that gives you much richer details about the location you've entered into the system.
For each search result, Google Local Search already provides helpful information such as a place's address, phone number, ratings, reviews, various business attributes, etc.
But we get that you might want even more, and are now enabling you to have an advance look at the destination you're going. "Pictures at your destination" is a new service that combines images of your destination from various online sources. Where available, you'll see satellite imagery, user generated photos from the Panoramio community, or even Street View imagery that gives you a sense of what you can visually expect when you get to your destination.
Have a look:
Thirdly and as always, we're continuing to make improvements to our Local Search offering. Google Local Search is already available in many cars worldwide and has become a very useful complimentary service to static-only point of interest (POI) searches from DVDs or hard drives. By taking advantage of the rich information and fresh data this technological integration allows, we hope searching for places in your car makes it faster, easier and more exciting for you to get where you're going.
Enjoy your connected drive, and stay tuned for more great car services from the Google automotive team and our partners!

Gulfstream Park: Cigar Street wins Skip Away and boosts Mott barn
HALLANDALE BEACH, Fla. - Cigar Street thrust himself into the picture in the handicap division while at the same time salvaging what had been up to that point a disappointing day for the Bill Mott barn when he rallied to a two-length victory over Take Charge Indy in Saturday's $100,000 Skip Away at Gulfstream Park. The win was the fourth on the card and third graded stakes tally on the day for jockey John Velazquez.
Cigar Street remained perfect in three starts since being transferred to Mott's barn last season by co-owners Jake Ballis and the Miami Heat's Rashard Lewis. A son of Street Sense, Cigar Street won a pair of allowance races in impressive fashion earlier in the session to earn a berth in the Grade 3 Skip Away.
Cigar Street was forced to race a bit wide around the opening bend of the one mile and three-sixteenths Skip Away while kept within easy striking distance of pacesetter Take Charge Indy. Cigar Street engaged the leader three wide nearing the quarter pole, forged to command in early stretch, and gradually edged away through the final furlong.
Take Charge Indy, winner of the Grade 1 Florida Derby here a year ago and third in the Grade 1 Donn Handicap earlier in the meet, held on gamely after being displaced on the lead by the winner to be second best. It was another 6 3/4 lengths back to the pace-pressing Pants On Fire, who weakened steadily to finish a distant third.
Cigar Street paid $5.60 after completing the distance in 1:56.84 over a fast track.
"It saved the day for us here, I think," said Mott's assistant Kenny McCarthy. "It was a little rough watching Dubai earlier today, and then a couple of our fillies here didn't maybe perform as well as we'd thought."
McCarthy was referring to Royal Delta, who finished far back in the Dubai World Cup and both Emollient and Starformer, who were off the board in the Gulfstream Oaks and Orchid, respectively.
"It's nice to see this horse run like that," said McCarthy. "We'd always thought a lot of him. It was great to see him do this today. The race set up pretty much like we'd thought. Johnny said he was going to let him run a little bit out of the gate figuring (Pants On Fire) might show some speed. He backed off him a little bit, and once he did he settled in nice and kind of went from there."
Good win by Cigar Street but I'm still very happy and proud of TAKE CHARGE INDY. He's game, he's got heart and is a true out an out battler. Proud of you Indy. That's why your record is 11-2-4-2 which means you did not finish in the top three in all but three races and I'm well aware that 6 of those races were grade one races. I believe the best in the USA in the grades are how we judge them. Your close to earning a million. Your dad was HOTY. Your mom was a grade one winner. Your a grade one winner.Keep going INDY. Winners never Quit.
JV 's day. Orb.

The home ministry has processed Parliament attack convict Afzal Guru's mercy petition and is ready to put up the file for minister Sushilkumar Shinde's formal recommendation within the next fortnight.
The move comes as Congress leader Digvijaya Singh joined the BJP-led chorus to hang Guru, who this week completes 11 years in jail, 10 of them as a death row convict. "I am in favour of the execution of capital punishment to Afzal Guru," PTI quoted Digvijaya as saying.
The BJP that has been campaigning for Guru's hanging kept up the pressure on the government.
BJP spokesperson Shahnawaz Hussain said the mercy petition should be rejected to "put a balm on the wounds of the people".
President Pranab Mukherjee had returned about seven mercy petitions including Guru's file to the home ministry to seek Shinde's views afresh.
Chidambaram had recommended rejection of Guru's mercy plea.Shinde — also the leader of the House in the Lok Sabha — has made it clear that he hasn't had time to study Guru's file due to his preoccupation with Parliament.
Guru was arrested within days of the December 13, 2001, attack and was convicted.
He and his wife filed mercy petitions to the President days ahead of being sent to the gallows in late 2006.

Ripoff Report
Infinity Credit Services, Inc.202 West Knox Ennis, Texas USA
Infinity Credit Services, Inc. - firstname.lastname@example.com - Green Dot SCAM Infinity Credit Services uses Backpage and Craigslist to propagate fraud using Green Dot Ennis Texas
Does your business have a bad reputation?
Fix it the right way.
Corporate Advocacy Program™
INFINITY CREDIT SERVICES uses Backpage and Craigslist, promising guaranteed credit cards and trade lines that will report to the credit bureaus. If you are reading this, you probably had the same thoughts, too - how can anyone simply force an approval with Citibank, U.S. Bank and other major financial institutions? Short answer: you can't, unless someone is working on the inside and taking a kickback.
Note that misrepresenting applications to obtain credit, or posting tradelines to your report without the express written permission of the account holder, is illegal.
This is for The Mail Box in Ennis, not any redeeming office:
Support Team & Sales
Infinity Credit Services, Inc.
202 West Knox
Ennis, Texas 75119
(214) 716-7746
This is for a virtual office rental /corporate office (nothing distributed, except for fraudulence):
Distribution Center
6130 Stone Ridge Mall Road
Pleasanton, CA, 94588
Finally, this is their 'corporate office', realistically out in the middle of the road just before the Dallas Parkway exit:
Corporate Offices
14100 Dallas Parkway
Dallas, Texas 75254
Here's your 'board of directors', email and contact information:
Mike Ward, Principal
Steve Peterson, Sales
Lisa Myers, Support Team
The scam is simple, people: you pick a 'credit package' which offers you tradelines (stolen or placed on your credit report without permission), credit cards (underwritten by rogue financial superiors at the aforementioned banks or simply non-existent) and other 'perks', where applicable. You simply purchase yourself a Green Dot, Vanilla Visa or similar reload, send them the pin, then grab your proverbial ankles.
Do NOT victimize yourself to these frauds. There are many more companies just like them, and they'll take payment via PayPal, too (which is considered a virtual service and offers YOU, the buyer, ZERO PROTECTION.
Anything offering a guaranteed approval of credit is illegal, and goes against our financial institutions' standards of practice. If you have poor credit, you will NOT get prime credit on a 'guaranteed' level. If you have good credit, you probably don't read these ads, anyway.
**Attention Citibank, US Bank and other institutions: an email has been sent to your fraud departments to investigate this. It would behoove you to monitor unusual credit lines or red flags in your system (and read Backpage every now and then, or purchase a package to 'test' these idiots out).
Consumers, you have been warned.

This Snickers Super Bowl Ad was voted the funniest commercial to run during the game, and with good reason. Any commercial that has Betty White running around a field with a bunch of guys 50 years younger playing tackle football is comedic gold.
I have incredible respect for Ms. White who, at 88-years-old, can even run at all, never mind being thrown to the ground (though I'm pretty sure that's not her).
The Snickers Super Bowl commercial definitely made me LOL.

Kaiser Permanente invites you to a day long Food for Health Forum on Saturday, October 16, at the Mission Bay Conference Center at UCSF in San Francisco.
Join well-known authors Michael Pollan and Mollie Katzen, food system experts, and Kaiser Permanente leaders for an in-depth discussion of the ways in which the health care sector can help improve public health—as well as the health of our environment—by fostering the availability of more sustainable food for families, patients and the community.
Kaiser Permanente recognizes that eating good foods and being active are crucial components of a healthy lifestyle. The need to support good food has taken on added urgency with our increased understanding of the nation's obesity epidemic, as well as the impact of environmental toxins on health.
Join us on October 16 to learn how physicians, caregivers and others involved in health care can work together to promote a healthier food system for healthier people and a healthier planet.
This forum is by invitation only (your invitation is non-transferable) and offered at no expense to attendees.
Space is limited, so register today!
If you have any questions about this event or your registration, contact Michelle Soo Hoo at (510) 268-4300 or email email@example.com.

3rd October 2007, 06:48 AM
A friend was looking at this (http://www.trademe.co.nz/Trade-Me-Motors/Cars/Audi/auction-120464534.htm) one. Was garaged for 5 years one year prior to now. The current owner seems to have ironed out any problems from the garaging (new headliner, starter etc.). Was owned by a pharmacist and has a full service record. Might make a good family car for him. I dunno. Certainly seems pretty tidy with relatively low mileage for it's age.

Hi everyone. I just took a few quick videos of my 2007 V. Not soon after I bought the car I was wanting a more aggressive exhaust sound so I went to a shop and had a muffler delete done with 3.5" stainless tips. Just thought I would share a few of my sound videos.
If you've got a computer with good speakers you'll appreciate these a lot more. They don't sound very good on my laptop but the desktop with good speakers really illustrates the sound well. Videos were taken with a gopro. Sorry for the weird aspect ratio.
Here's one flat out from a near idle launch.
Here is what it sounds like just driving around with shifts about 2-3k but not higher than 3k.
Hope you enjoy and if there is an exhaust sound thread point me in the right direction so I can add them in there.
Thanks for looking

We are on the last legs of our trip and getting anxious to get home. Yet we want to spend an extra night at another one of our favorite Oregon state parks. The roads leading to home is 500 miles long about half are windy country roads. So 250 miles towing a big trailer on windy country roads is slow going. We'll take our time and be safe.

The trail was all downhill, 8.5 miles into Sierra City, which is at 4200 feet elevation. It definitely felt warmer/hotter down here. I arrived here by 11:30ish.

Print Interview
You did not exactly have a conventional childhood. What would you call it?
Gore Vidal: Well, it was conventional in the sense that I was at the Republican Convention that nominated Wendell Wilkie in 1940. I was at two other conventions, Democratic, since my family was Democrat. It was very conventional in that sense. If you mean it was like the boy next door, no.
How would you describe your childhood? What was it like growing up in Washington?
Gore Vidal: It was wonderful. Family life was fraught. It's never pleasant to have an alcoholic mother. I don't think many children enjoy that, but you survive it somehow.
I lived mostly with my grandparents, Senator and Mrs. Gore. He was blind from the age of ten, and I was precocious at reading, thanks to his brandishing his cane at me. So I would read to him. I was the only nine-year-old probably in the United States who understood bimetallism; he was on the Finance Committee of the Senate. I would often act as his page, take him onto the floor of the Senate, and they were giants in those days. Everybody thinks that about their childhood, but they really were. There was Huey Long, who was the funniest man that ever lived, and Borah of Idaho -- "the Lion of Idaho" -- they were all such performers! They were great actors. If you just studied them, it was like studying at the Old Vic or something. I really wanted to be a politician, but unfortunately, I was born a writer. When that happens, you have no choice in the matter.
That's a rarefied atmosphere for a ten-year-old.
Gore Vidal: Yes, it was, but there was one ten-year-old who certainly appreciated it.
I was fascinated by politics, and the Senate was the engine room of the country. Roosevelt was President during most of my childhood, still President when I went in the Army at 17, and he was the main political fact of the country, but the Senate, full of prima donnas, and each one saw himself as very much the equal of the President, if not his superior. So there was this tug of war going on between the executive and the legislative. We are getting a small, corrupt version of it (now), as everything we have today is small and corrupt, but we are seeing a bit of that, where the House of Representatives is telling the executive, "Go get lost. We are an equal power here, and you don't just break into one of our offices." Let's say I never had to take a civics course.
What were you like as a kid?
Gore Vidal: Mean. I was brought up by Senator Gore. I was more of a Gore, which was my mother's side, than a Vidal, who were rather pleasanter people from the Italian Alps.
My father was a great athlete and a great designer of airlines. He started three airlines and Roosevelt made him Director of Air Commerce, and while he was Director of Air Commerce, he got me to fly when I was ten years old. You can get the Pathé newsreel footage to add to this portrait of me at ten, getting into a plane and taking off at Bolling Field in Washington in 1936.

We spent 3 nights at Sven's early in our trip to Alaska, staying in the Tipi. It gave us a well needed chance to recover after flying in from the UK and a good base to explore from before we moved onto our next place to visit.
Sven and Rachel made us feel really welcome and I've no doubt we'll stay again in the future sometime (our two week trip seemed to fly by so we hope to come back for a longer trip some day).

I came to Svens Hostel in Fairbanks, just to stay there for a few days.
But the place and the people around were so amazing, that I left after moren then 10 days....
I've seen lots of hostels but this one is outstanding. Clean, friendly andlike a small paradise within the city.
This is the one and only 10/10 hostel I have seen so far. Thanks to Sven and Rahel for having such a great time at the basecamp.
I will be back !

Hello, I am the one in that slept in my purple car! I made it to my destination (Utah) 4,659 miles later. Had a great trip and it started at your hostel! Thanks for the great stay and friendly experience. I was wondering if there is a chance of getting a copy of the photo you took, since it was the first photo of my trip? If not, that's ok, but it never hurts to ask. Is your sister still there with you? She was such a sweet girl. Anyway, you folks take care and enjoy your day.

I am on a Motorcycle trip and found out about Sven's via the tourist info.
I am in heaven here! there is plenty to do and lots of interesting people to meet, if you want a quiet corner to read you can find that to.
I never stay more than 2 nights in a campsite but today I booked a 3rd.... that says something :-)
Thanks Sven for providing a lovely little hideaway to recharge my batteries

Hallo Sven, vielen Dank nochmal für die Hilfe am 7.Juni 2013, als wir die Niederlassung von "GO-NORTH" gesucht haben. Wir, meine beiden Jungs und ich, hatten eine wunderschöne aber anstrengende Alaska-Yukon-Rundreise.
Wir hatten ein super Wetter auf der ganzen Tour. Wir sind seit dem 23.Juni zurück in Deutschland. Dies war mein 18. Alaskabesuch, und nicht der Letzte!!
Also viele Grüße aus dem Ruhrgebiet senden Dir Karl-Günter, Frank und Mark Lange
