I studied Spanish for 5 years in high school, lived in Southern California speaking a lot of Spanish and spent 5 months in Spanish speaking countries and got to a very proficient level in Spanish. Then I went to Brazil and started learning Portuguese through total immersion. After two weeks in Brazil I became friends with a girl who spoke Spanish. I was horrified when I opened my mouth to speak Spanish to her and Portuguese kept coming out. For the next month, every time we spoke Spanish I would keep slipping up and using Portuguese words and pronunciation instead of Spanish. The words that gave me the most trouble were: el/ele, ella/ela, de, voy/vou, va/vai, olvidar/esquecer, recordar/lembrar to name a few. Even when I focused on it and slowed down my speach I still found myself making Portuguese instead of Spanish.
I'm really curious to see if anyone has any strategy for switching between Spanish and Portuguese, or between any two Romance languages. I think the biggest problem was that when I started learning Portuguese I stopped practicing Spanish so I got out of the habit of speaking it.

I wrote a blog post about this. 😉

"I think the biggest problem was that when I started learning Portuguese I stopped practicing Spanish so I got out of the habit of speaking it."
I think this is the crux of the issue. I've found the same problem, but with much less closely related languages like Urdu, Spanish and Serbian. I grew up speaking both Serbian and English, but after about the age of 5 we've spoke less and less of my mother's native language at home. It's hard to maintain in Australia after all, especially with a Pakistani-American father who doesn't understand the language much. Anyway, after I got to a conversational language of Spanish, I realized that I constantly wanted to use Spanish words in Serbian. I had trouble remembering Serbian conjunctions and adverbs, and I constantly said "sí" instead of "da". But now that I've made a real effort to speak Serbian at home (especially after my monoglot grandmother came to visit for a month or so), I no longer really confuse them.
Then, over the Christmas holidays I studied Urdu while visiting Pakistan. I noticed that I started confusing Urdu with both Serbian and Spanish. After some Skype conversations with my mother and one of my dad's Chicano colleagues this was solved. I've stopped studying Urdu actively (my plan is to get back into it in November) for Dutch. And now when I do short sentences in my inner monologue in Urdu, it all comes out in Dutch! It even takes me up to 5 minutes to actually notice 😛
So I agree, it's all about actually using the language. If you teach your brain to think that a certain language is only good for a certain situation (e.g. being in that country), then it'll take the easy way out and move vocabulary towards wherever passive knowledge is stored.

I agree with Saim. Well said. You have to push your knowledge to the certain level to stop mixing them. Or to make your brain think about what language to use all the time. Which is damn hard 🙂

actually while i was in Spain I was speaking mostly spanish, I had spent to weeks there, and didn't think a word of Italian or anything, and on my 11th day there, there were some italians on the beach chair next to me and I started talking to them, the only thing was I was speaking much slower than usual because I had to monitor and make sure what was coming out was actually Italian and not Spanish. (For instance I said Razone, which is a mixture of the words ragione, and razón, I also forgot the word to burn, which is bruciare, so I simply didn't say it, even though I must have used that word 1000 times.) but I find that if you just speak a little slower and stay calm then you will be fine, I also tend to imitate the accent of the language, that way using a spanish word would sound awkward cause I would have to change my accent
Yesterday I got back to new york and spoke Italian and after about 5 or 10 minutes I had successfully switched back into 100% italian, and didn't have to monitor my speech!

Demanding 'Justice for Trayvon' (Videos)
Posted on Jul 21, 2013
Exactly one week after a Florida jury found George Zimmerman not guilty of second-degree murder and manslaughter in the death of unarmed 17-year-old Trayvon Martin, demonstrators in more than 100 U.S. cities from Los Angeles to New York gathered outside federal courthouses Saturday to press the Justice Department to file civil rights charges against the former neighborhood watch leader and to call for changes to the nation's gun laws.
The teen's parents, Tracy Martin and Sybrina Fulton, attended and spoke at two of the rallies. Watch what they had to say below.

Three charged in Pettis County drug busts
Police report finding operations selling methamphetamine
SEDALIA, Mo. - Sedalia police arrested three people in connection with a suspected drug operation Thursday. Two were arrested Thursday morning, and the third was arrested late Thursday night.
Shortly after 5 a.m., detectives and officers with a K-9 unit searched a home in the 1000 block of South Carr Avenue. Officers say they found methamphetamine and materials to pack and distribute it inside the home. Police believe the drug was being sold inside the home.
Two people were arrested on suspicion of possessing meth and paraphernalia: Esther Dean, 35, and John Welch, 33. Because the home is within 2,000 feet of Horace Mann Elementary School, Dean is also suspected of distributing methamphetamine near a school.
While investigating the home, police identified the location where Dean's alleged supplier could be found. Working with the Mid-Missouri Drug Task Force, officers searched a home on Highway T in La Monte shortly before midnight Thursday.
Officers reported finding meth and cocaine, as well as materials for packing and selling drugs. Police believe drugs were being sold from this home as well. They arrested Michael Stewart, 52, on suspicion of drug trafficking, distribution of meth near a school (Pettis Co. R-XII Dresden), and possession of cocaine, meth, and paraphernalia.
All three were formally charged. Stewart is being held on $500,000, Dean on $50,000, and Welch on $25,000 and $2,500 cash or surety bonds.

The Ferris State University men's ice hockey team is ranked 39th in the 2007-08 Inside College Hockey (INCH) Power Rankings which were recently released by the online college hockey publication.
The Inside College Hockey editors and staff ranked the nation's top teams.
A total of 59 teams were ranked with North Dakota receiving the top billing followed by Boston College and Miami (Ohio) of the Central Collegiate Hockey Association (CCHA). The rankings among the remaining 11 CCHA teams were as follows - Michigan State (fourth), Notre Dame (sixth), Michigan (12th), Ohio State (19th), Nebraska Omaha (24th), Western Michigan (29th), Lake Superior State (31st), Ferris State (39th), Northern Michigan (41st), Alaska (44th), and Bowling Green State (52nd).
Along with the 39th-place ranking, the INCH staff made this statement about Ferris State - "The good news is that the Bulldogs have a reliable defense and strong goaltending. The bad news is you can't win games without scoring goals."
Ferris State, under 16th-year head coach Bob Daniels, was listed 30th in Inside College Hockey's 2006-07 preseason rankings.
The 2007-08 season represents the 30th anniversary for the Ferris State men's ice hockey program as a NCAA Division I level participant.
Ferris State, which is currently 0-2-0 overall for the 2007-08 campaign, will open the home portion of its season schedule this weekend (Oct. 19-20) taking on the Wayne State University Warriors in a two-game non-league series at FSU's Ewigleben Ice Arena in Big Rapids, Mich. The puck will drop for this Friday's (Oct. 19) opener at 7:05 p.m. (EDT) while Saturday's (Oct. 14) encounter will commence at 5:05 p.m. (EDT). Wayne State was listed 55th by the online publication.
Hockey reserved single-game tickets are currently on sale and prices are $12 (adult), $8 (K-12) and $5 (FSU students) for all games with the exception of the two premier CCHA contests against Michigan State (Dec. 7) and Michigan (March 1). The premier game tickets, which will be $16 apiece, will go on sale this upcoming Monday, Oct. 22. Six 2007-08 home contests have been designated as family nights and consist of four tickets to the game, four soft drinks and two popcorns all for only $32.
Tickets for all 2007-08 Bulldog Hockey regular-season home games can be purchased through an agreement with Star Tickets Plus and are available at all West Michigan Meijer stores, online at www.starticketsplus.com or by calling (800) 585-3737. In addition, fans can also contact the FSU Athletics Ticket Office inside the ice arena directly Monday thru Friday from 9 a.m. to 5 p.m. (EDT) at (231) 591-2888. However, phone orders for single-game tickets must be purchased through Star Tickets Plus.
Hockey season ticket information and prices along with a complete 2007-08 schedule of games is available online at www.ferris.edu/Sports/tickets.

Scotto departs NY1
Veteran NY1 political reporter Michael Scotto is leaving the station this weekend for a job with the Partnership for New York City, I'm told.
Scotto has been at NY1 for nearly a decade and was among those who hosted Inside City Hall while the station sought a permanent replacement for their departed anchor Dominic Carter. One of Scotto's most notable stories at NY1 was recording Mayor Bloomberg's uncharitable comments about recently-departed Dr. Atkins.
Scotto's first day at the Partnership is Monday.

I suppose the most surprising aspect of these gotcha upskirts from BBW turned MILFtastic fitness guru Jennifer Nicole Leeis the presence of panties. Not that I don't love those little cotton and silken thongs of joy, but this naughty mom seems like she might go to the mall in a short dress commando style every now and then as well. It's a great way for the kids to learn where babies come from, in the least.
As much as I do loathe the entire process of shopping for anything that isn't sold at Home Depot, I must admit, seeing hot moms walking about in short dresses, toned sweet ass cheeks, and pretty white panties would make the process ever so much more sufferable, if not sextastic. Hot moms, please pay attention to how JNL does it, then follow suit. Literally. Enjoy.

electronic bikes
Wonder if we might discuss 'e-bikes'
1 - modding the controller
2 - battery replacement
3 - charger replacement
4 - accessories
5 - brands
I have an e-bike - live in China - have some electronics background.
1 Attachment(s)
2) If you are presently using lead acid based batteries, going to LifP04 will be a huge upgrade. Very expensive, but considering the amount of charges they take, a better value than lead acid.
3) Lifpo4 are very sensitive to undercharge and overcharge, battery management systems should be employed to protect from over or undercharge conditions.
A charger specific to the battery type is required.
4) Accessories I plan to add are storage panniers.
5) I made my own:
Manufactured by Art Welter, Welter Systems Inc.
Motor: 24 Volt D.C. .8 horsepower American Lincoln Corporation
34 Amps, 1700 RPM, 50 Deg. Cent. Rating, Frame:56 5328D, Cat# 80059, Serial # 1063
Suspension and front wheel: 1977 Peugeot "motor driven cycle" number 768440
Front frame: Mountain bike
Rear wheel : Honda ATV
Rest of frame: 1/2 X1/16 square steel tube
Chain idler: Tracker skateboard truck with center channel machined, Peugeot chain guide
Gears: 13 tooth on motor, 60 tooth on rear wheel (55.5 inch circumference)
Curtis PMC 275 Amp Motor controller, model 1204-001
Batteries (Test runs): 4 PowerStar PS12-22W (12 volt AGM, 1 AH at 16.3 amp)
Batteries (Permanent): 2 GBS LFMP40Ah 8-packs (16 x 3.3 volts)
Bike lights run on 6 AA 1.5 volt batteries
Weight: 185 pounds, 70 front, 115 rear, AGM batteries 72 , motor 56
Weight: 163 pounds, 55 front, 108 rear, LiFePO4 batteries 52
Wheelbase: 49 inches
Length: 70 inches
Bike parts had previously been used on an electric trike built from 11/23/01 to 2/3/02, which took about 135 hours procuring materials, designing and building the frame.
The trike, weighing in at 550 pounds had to be geared for 5 mph going up the steep mountain hills to avoid burning the motor, the gear ratio only allowed a top speed of 15 MPH.
After it proved to be a road hazard, the electrical system was replaced with a pedal system for parade use.
After 10 years of parades hauling Santa playing a keyboard through loudspeakers, the trike was de-commissioned, frame cut out, and body put on top of a hill overlooking Madrid as a sculptural piece.
The electric bike was built from 11/10/12 to 12/1/12
It took 79.25 hours to design and get it operational, then another 32.5 to get it running smoothly.
Initially only two batteries in series were tried, but range was only 2.92 miles at around 12.5 MPH before the battery voltage sagged to the "limp mode", under 16 volts.
With 4 batteries, the speed was 15-25 MPH for 4.2 miles, voltage dropped to 47.8 (40% charge) recovering to 48.8v in an hour, more than 60% charge.
Climbing the hill to Wild Dog Road, a distance of 1.5 miles, voltage dropped from 50.6 to 48 @15 amps, then the amperage increased as the voltage dropped, by the top of the hill on the dirt road, the voltage had dropped to 19 @ 40 amps and speed was down to around 8 MPH.
Voltage recovered to 44 volts in a few minutes, but would sag again under load.
With the lack of hill climbing ability making the bike's range unusable in this mountainous region, decided to purchase two eight cell GBS 40 amp hour Lithium Ion Iron Phosphate (LiFePO4) batteries, costing $890 from EVolve Electrics, requiring a new charger and low voltage disconnect (LVD) costing an additional $188.
The batteries arrived in good condition, all cells between 3.29v and 3v on one pack, and even at 3.3 on the other, 26.3 and 26.4 pack voltage, 52.7 total, about 75% charged.
The battery research, covers, installation, charging, installing a speedometer and slow moving vehicle reflectors took another 38.5 hours from 12/7 to 12/20/12.
With the LiFePO4 pack put on 10.9 miles, up to Wild Dog Road, and down to Cerrillos and back. Cold ride, temperature around 32 degrees.
Popped the 60 amp breaker a few times, but at 19-20 MPH pulling about 40-45 amps uphill.
On the few flat parts of the road, it appears to draw just under 20 amps at about 21 MPH, par for the motor specifications and the gear ratio.
Down hill hit over 47 MPH, the CatEyeMate speedometer only goes to 47 :^).
Starting voltage was 52.8, immediately after the ride was 51.7, after about 1/2 hour voltage rose to 52. Next day brought up the level on three cells that were lower than the rest, started out with 52.3v, drove an additional 12.3 miles, for a total of 23.2 miles in 25 degree weather. Unfortunately, three cells had not been brought up quite enough to equal the others, and they dropped in voltage well below the others. Pack voltage dropped to a low of 34 climbing the hill back from Cerrillos, backing down on speed /amperage kept it around 40V, after the ride it was 44.1v, and rose to 46.37 in the next 75 minutes.
The chain was replaced with a heavy-duty BMX chain after another failure, then the front gear broke, so another cassette was fabricated using a 13 tooth front gear, taking another 9 hours between 12/22-31/12 including making an adapter to plug the charger in to the batteries, bringing the total hours of build time to 159.25.
On 1/11/13 the weather finally got slightly above freezing, the batteries were all individually topped off to 57.5 volts (3.59 each cell) and a 32.6 mile run was made at speeds of 17-25 mph. After checking battery voltage and finding it at around 51.2, (which I thought would be about a 50% charge), decided to ride fast, and did another 6.4 miles at 25-28 MPH, but then the voltage dropped rather instantly to the LVD point of around 40 volts, recovering to 43.58 volts, a total of 39 miles run in cold conditions. Perhaps a warm day on flat land could get mileage to the mid 40s.
So, unfortunately the bike won't make a round trip from Madrid to Santa Fe and back (50+miles) without opportunity charging there.
I'll be looking for outdoor AC outlets rather than adding more batteries ;).
Thank you very much for sharing your experience in writing and photos!
Are we talking about electrically assisted pedal
bicycles or electrically powered motorcycles ?
I'd guess the point of modding the controller
is the removal of the speed limiter for road
legal e-bicycles, but that is not difficult I
understand as off road models are not
limited in the speed they can assist.
rgds, sreten.
UK - a legal electric bicycle is supposed to
provide no assistance above 15mph, 24kph.
The ones here seem to 'fade' at moderate speed - lots of kick at accelerating from a full stop, but rapidly lose dv/dt - if that makes any sense.
2 - I am quite surprised that Li type batteries.........work. I had assumed they would not be good at handling the initial current rush (when accelerating from a full stop). Do they react any differently?
b - to me, yes
c - no-one in China really cares, though I would not be surprised to learn of such a statutory definition.
I'm no expert but that would make sense for bottom of the market
wheel motors for export. As the RPM's build the motors back emf
builds up reducing the motors power output. Effectively they self
limit to the sort of legislation I referred to. If that is the case then
no basic mods to the controller will help, its inherent in the design.
AIUI the best electric bicycles are crank driven, with a full gearset
(hub gearing usually) to get round that that very basic limitation.
rgds, sreten.
VERY few crank-driven e-bikes in China............wonder why! Can you say price?
So the only [practical] way to increase [the top-end] speed is to change the motor?
My old motor was designed for industrial use, scrubbing floors all day, using 24 volts. Going to 48 volts doubles it's top speed and is no problem for short time periods, but if I tried to maintain that speed the motor would eventually burn out, and of course I could be busted for exceeding the moped 25 mph limit. I'd have to license and carry insurance as a motorcycle, while mopeds are street legal here without.
In response to your previous questions, LiFePO4 can provide as much as 10C (ten times the rated amp hour rating) for short bursts, making them great for "off the line" performance.
Your reference to controllers: "The ones here seem to 'fade' at moderate speed - lots of kick at accelerating from a full stop but rapidly lose dv/dt" could be a voltage control time constant kicking in to protect the motor (and controller) from burning up, or Peukert's law, the lead acid batteries recover voltage when the load is removed, but voltage drops again after a while when demand is close to the AH rating.
The "puke out" syndrome was exactly why I paid the big bucks for better batteries, LiFePO4 are almost immune to Peukert's law.

Finding Nemo [Blu-ray/DVD] [Includes Digital Copy; 3D/2D]
5 discs
Region 1 USA/CA (
Co-helmed by WALL-E director Andrew Stanton, FINDING NEMO follows Marlin (voiced by Albert Brooks), an overprotective clown fish father, as he desperately searches the farthest reaches of the sea for his missing son Nemo. Marlin's journey leads him beyond the Great Barrier Reef into deeper and darker waters, where he meets Dory (Ellen DeGeneres), a forgetful yet optimistic blue tang, and a number of not-so-friendly--and often very hungry--aquatic creatures. Meanwhile, little Nemo finds himself in a dentist's fish tank in Syndey, Australia, along with other underwater captives, including Gill (Willem Dafoe), the group's scarred Moorish idol leader. As Nemo works with his new friends on a plan to escape their tank, Marlin and Dory swim closer, but they'll need more than just fins to get into the dentist's office.
This fifth computer-animated outing by Pixar continues the company's remarkable winning streak that began with TOY STORY. Like other Pixar films, FINDING NEMO features a story with heart--this time, a father-and-son tale--and thoroughly charming leads--in this case, Marlin, Nemo, and Dory. And, of course, there's an army of fascinating supporting characters, including Bruce (Barry Humphries), a great white shark on a no-fish diet; Crush (director/screenwriter Stanton), a surfer-dude sea turtle; Peach (Allison Janney), a stuck-to-the-aquarium starfish; and Nigel (Geoffrey Rush), a bold pelican. However, what truly distinguishes NEMO from even its CGI cousins is its stunning depiction of aquatic life, from the colorful creatures on a coral reef to a blue whale on the vast expanse of the open ocean. By combining the aesthetic of a National Geographic marine life documentary with clever jokes and Hitchcock references, NEMO succeeds in its bid to up the ante for animated films yet again. And be sure to watch the credits or you just might miss something!

There is proof the footage of the alleged chemical attack in Syria was fabricated, Mother Agnes Mariam el-Salib, mother superior of St. James Monastery in Qara, Syria, told RT. She says she is about to submit her findings to the UN.
Mother Agnes, a catholic nun, who has been living in Syria for 20 years and has been reporting actively on what has been going on in the war-ravaged country, says she carefully studied the video featuring allegedly victims of the chemical weapons attack in the Syrian village of Guta in August and now questions its authenticity.
In her interview with RT, Mother Agnes doubts so much footage could have been taken in so little time, and asks where parents of the supposedly dead children are. She promises to send her report to the UN.
The nun is indignant with the world media for apparently turning a blind eye to the Latakia massacre by rebel extremists, which left 500 civilians including women and children dead.
Russia's Foreign Ministry has called on the international community to pay attention to revelations made by Mother Agnes Mariam el-Salib.
RT: The United States has used internet photos and video footage of the supposed chemical weapons attack in Eastern Guta to build a case against the Syrian government. Have you been able to look at these files? What do you have to say about them?
Mother Agnes: I have carefully studied the footage, and I will present a written analysis on it a bit later. I maintain that the whole affair was a frame-up. It had been staged and prepared in advance with the goal of framing the Syrian government as the perpetrator.
The key evidence is that Reuters made these files public at 6.05 in the morning. The chemical attack is said to have been launched between 3 and 5 o'clock in the morning in Guta. How is it even possible to collect a dozen different pieces of footage, get more than 200 kids and 300 young people together in one place, give them first aid and interview them on camera, and all that in less than three hours? Is that realistic at all? As someone who works in the news industry, you know how long all of it would take.
The bodies of children and teenagers we see in that footage – who were they? What happened to them? Were they killed for real? And how could that happen ahead of the gas attack? Or, if they were not killed, where did they come from? Where are their parents? How come we don't see any female bodies among all those supposedly dead children?

Chavez overcomes infection, still having treatment
SANTIAGO/CARACAS, (Reuters) – Venezuelan President Hugo Chavez has overcome a respiratory infection, but is still being treated for breathing problems after cancer surgery in Cuba last month, a government minister said on
Official statements have sounded upbeat about the socialist president's condition in recent weeks, following rumors he was gravely ill in a hospital in Havana and might be unable to keep governing after being re-elected in October to a third term.
"(Chavez) has overcome the respiratory infection, although he still has a certain degree of respiratory insufficiency," Information Minister Ernesto Villegas told reporters in Chile, where Latin American and European leaders are meeting.
"Vice President (Nicolas) Maduro has estimated that Chavez could come back in weeks, but we haven't wanted to put a time frame on the president's recovery," Villegas added.
Earlier on Saturday, Maduro said Chavez, 58, was in his "best moment" since his operation 45 days ago.
"What we can share with you is that the commander is in his best moment that we have seen in all of these days of struggle," Maduro said in televised comments before dawn on Saturday, after returning from Cuba to meet with the president.
Chavez has not been seen in public since undergoing his fourth and most complex surgery to treat an illness that might jeopardize the future of his self-styled revolution.
He has never said exactly what type of cancer he has, only that the initial tumor found in mid-2011 was in his pelvic area and was the size of a baseball.
In contrast to Chavez's previous visits to Havana for treatment, officials have not published any evidence of his condition. In 2011, with great fanfare, they broadcast videos of him reading a newspaper, walking in a garden and chatting with his daughter.
In the absence of such proof this time, many Venezuelans are questioning the terse official bulletins that provide few details about his condition or treatment.
Maduro said earlier on Saturday that Chavez had ordered a series of economic decisions that would help boost Venezuelan exports, comments that came amid speculation the government was preparing a devaluation of the bolivar currency.
"He gave a series of orders that the economic team will share in the coming hours with the people of Venezuela, which are focused on building Venezuela's export capacity," he said.
He did not elaborate.
A Finance Ministry source who asked not to be identified said on Saturday the ministry was not planning on making any announcements right now.
Devaluation would make exports more competitive by lowering local production costs and spur domestic industries by making imports less competitive with locally produced goods.
It would also improve state finances by providing more bolivars per dollar of oil exports, following heavy spending in 2012 on homes for the poor and pensions for the elderly that helped Chavez win re-election.
But it would also push up consumer prices in a country that already has one of the highest inflation rates in the region.
A lack of dollars in recent weeks has left many businesses struggling to import the products they need. Some goods such as wheat flour and sugar have disappeared from supermarket shelves, partly because of import bottlenecks.

I thought that I should also replace the u-joints and drive shaft as well since NE Ohio winters and salt have rusted both. Can this all be done without opening up the differential cover? Thanks for the help, Tom

Ask an Eye Doctor and Get an Answer ASAP
I will do my best to assist you in answering your question.
In regards XXXXX XXXXX changes you have noticed in regards XXXXX XXXXX visual field, it maybe best to followup with your neuroopthalmologist so he canevaluate you for any changes that may have occurred since august
As far as the flashes of light ,these could be ocular migraines or due to a floater tugging on the retina which produce the flashes you are mentioning
An ocular migaine is a vasospasm of the vasculature of the eye that will produce flashes of light.These are usually benign and can be triggerred by caffeine or stress among some of the causing factors.
The floater is something you would want to have your opthalmologist dilate your eyes for so he can make sure that the floater is not tugging on the retina so much that it is causing a tear.
Should you see an increase in the number of flashes of light or floaters, wavy distorted vision, or a curtain like effect, you would want to be seen immediately by your opthalmologist.
In summary in your case ,it would be best to have your opthalmologist evaluate you with a repeat visual field test and to dilate your eyes to determine if a floater is tbe cause for the flashes of light you are seeing
Should you have anyother questions leave them in the box below.If this has answered your questions, dont forget to rate this session before you leave this website.
Thank you in advance and good luck to you.

Le Meridien Bangkok is our last hotel stop during our last trip to Bangkok. 🙂 Situated at a very strategic location, which is none other than Surawong area, and a stone throw away from the famous landmark for ping pong show. 🙂
This is the building day
And transform by night. 🙂
You know what I like about the hotel. I love how the hotel gives you the modern feel and yes simple but stylish. 🙂
Although there's no grand lobby to boast, but I love how the lobby looks so cool 🙂
Waiting Area
Clean & Sparkling *kilat kilat*
Then we manage to check-in to our room and it looks how a Meridien hotel should be. Comforting.
Personalised Welcome Message on LCD TV and CISCO phone 🙂
The window with the auto-blinds that I just couldn't stop playing with 😛
Meridien supports UNICEF
And the comfy bed. SEriously you will just melt and sleep on the bed anytime! 😛 Its so comfy especially the pillow!
The bathtub + shower place… see the above pic.. can see how you can make the toilet an open concept?
Shampoo, conditioner, lotion, shower gel are all provided and it smell quite nice too (although i still prefer Uma Sapna's shower gel smell 😛 )
Mineral Water: THey provide 4 bottles in a room 🙂
Or you can choose to drown yourself in the selection of alcohol *chargeable*
Or anything from the minibar *chargeable*
Oh, remember to wear the oh-so-comfy-robes while enjoying your drinks 😛
You know how Hotel always throw in some complimentary welcome drink? And chances are, most of the time they sucks cos they give you some cordial drinks or some syrup-filled drinks, right? But suprisingly in Le Meridien, you get a better treatment than that. First you get to redeem the complimentary drink from the nice bar called Bamboo Chic! So you take your voucher and head on to Bamboo Chic at your convenience from 730pm – midnight (not when you are rushing to put your luggage and you gotta rush to finish your drink)
And I'm impressed with the interior once more!
Take picture first *blurry blurdevil*
Nice right?
Even the Toilet also very nice le
Oh, I haven't even talk about the complimentary drink! Instead of syrup-cordial-punch-drinks, we get to choose from the menu on what we want to drink, for free la! ehhehe we got ourselves a pint of guiness and a glass of white wine. How cool is that? 🙂
The Spa, Fitness and Pool is situated on the 6th Floor. Nothing great to shout about but at least there's a swimming pool, right? 🙂
Spa (You gotta pay for it :P)
The comfy sofa near the spa, next to the swimming pool 🙂
ta-da, the swim area and the comfy day bed. 😛
Okie, hope you like the hotel as much as we did enjoy our stay there. The only set back was they didn't pay special attention to our remarks when we placed our booking, in which they did apologize through email after that. Don't get me wrong, the staff, from the receptionist to the door bell to housekeeping are very attentive and friendly. Just some minor stuff. But if you were to ask me, for the price you pay and the things you get, I guess you can consider Pullman, which is as comfortable as Meridien is. End of the day it depends on what you want. For example, if you are bringing your family to Bangkok, you might consider Pullman for Pullman is more like a resort, while Meridien is more like a hotel building due to limited space. 🙂
Anyway, if you are staying in Le Meridien Bangkok, you should walk around the area. Go opposite the hotel to tailor made your working clothes or suit in Excelsior (I thought they are quite good) or walk over to Patpong area to catch a ping pong show. 🙂 THere's a noodle cart (street food) right opposite Meridien, which I find its pretty nice (operate by a lady). Else along the street at night, there's plenty of street food 🙂 IF you want proper restaurant food, try out one of the Soi in Patpong, they have decent Italian restaurant there. 😛
Till then, blurdevil 😛

John, I am envious of your trip to White Sands. I spent a lot of time in and around New Mexico when I was stationed in El Paso. I really liked the Gila National Forest for camping and hiking, but never made to to White Sands. Have a great day!
More and more Texas
Loading Map
A great benefit of Texas' expansiveness is the ever-changing complexion of the surroundings while moving from one area to the next. For instance, shortly after getting on the road yesterday morning I passed through the town of Kyle. Very quaint with lots of trees and hills on the horizon. There I stumbled upon Kyle's Earth Day fair. Lots of barbecued meats (not for me, thank-you) local crafts and a live band. It was only ten o'clock in the morning, but there were lots of families, baby strollers, etc.
Then I was off to Pedernales Falls State Park. I'm posting several photos of the falls area, none of which are very impressive in themselves. That is mostly due to the very tame nature of the falls when I was there. However, on a fairly regular basis, rainstorms bring flash floods that boggle the mind. As the ranger explained to me, the water level can rise a HUNDRED FEET IN FIVE MINUTES during a flood. There are signs everywhere prohibiting bathing and warning visitors to get to high ground the moment the water begins to rise. The photos may give you some idea of how powerfully the water has shaped the surrounding landscape.
I only took one photo on the ride today. After traveling about two hundred miles through Hill Country with huge areas of bright spring-green mesquite trees and praries with grazing long-horn cattle, goats, donkeys, packs of feral pigs, some sort of wild cat and thousands of vultures, I realized I was out of hill country and in the land of the windmill. OMG, I've never seen so many of them before. In the fifty or so miles in which I observed them, I easily saw a thousand or more. Interspersed between them all were quite a few oil wells as well. At one point I chuckled with the thought "Texas should be rename the Energy State".
I'm hoping to make it to Alamogordo, NM, tomorrow or Tuesday with a visit to the White Sands National Monument.
My friends live in Marble Falls On LBJ lake. Sounds like you're covering a lot of territory. Be safe and enjoy.
I would love to show this to Ryan. This is his plan when he graduates high school. The only difference will be that he will be on foot and his travels will take a great deal longer. If only I could get him to understand that it makes more sense in retirement than in early adulthood... or does it? Who knows? Who am I to say? I'm just his mother. Maybe I should let him get in touch so you could help him figure it all out. In the meantime, I'm so jealous, I'm considering my own blog, the title of which will read in your inbox, "Carrie says Hi from the warzone {classroom]"

The evolutionary principle is a largely psychological doctrine formulated by anthropologist Claude Levi-Strauss[How to reference and link to summary or text] which roughly states that when a certain species is removed from the habitat which it evolved in, or that habitat changes significantly within a brief period, the said species will develop aberrant and maladaptive behavior. The evolutionary principle is important in neo-Tribalist and Anarcho-primitivist thinking.

sig Ultra Nitron vs Colt TALO New Agent
How well are they made and where are they made(Germany)? Any issues that I should be aware of? Seems like a no brainer. I own a Colt have have no complaints but I also dont just want to buy because its a Colt.
Last edited by cdiago; 07-07-2012 at 06:37 AM.
Sig = Cast Frame
Correct me if I'm wrong.
More mim parts in a Sig.
but who's counting?
Magazine Catch, Mag Catch Lock, Sear, Disconnector
Some have said the Extracters are also. So that would make 5 parts at a min.
I have looked at the new agent multiple times and never found anything that appealing for the price point. The idea of the trench sights really limits the use of the gun for me. If you want to compare it correctly you need to find another true 3" gun as the Sig is a 3.5".
If I had to go with a Colt in the 3" frame it would be the defender. If I did end up buying a 3" 1911 based pistol I would take a hard hard look at what Springfield offers. Their micro series pistols are very appealing with all the right features including Springfield's warranty.
A few others to consider.
Dan Wesson ECO
Sti spartan 3.0
Smith and Wesson pro series
and I hate to admit it, Kimber
Thanks for the suggestions, most other than the Spartan were over my budget +1000. Looking to stay in the 800-1000 range. The Sig Ultra just seems more attractive to me with great extras. Colt NA just looks too bland, my Government model wowed me but the NA just doesn't. I am counting on SIG being reliable as a carry piece.
Mim parts Sig vs Colt
The sample Sig I have here has the following MIM parts, as best I can tell;
Slide Stop
External Extractor
Mag Catch
Thumb Safety looks cast
Grip Safety - cast
Receiver - cast
Colt MIM parts are;
Mag Catch
Grip Safety on some models, (upswept)
Thumb Safety
Grip Safety - Standard models
Hammer - Anniversary Models only - Wide Spur
Slide Stop
Receiver, including aluminum
taloinc, where did you find this information? I was told by Sig that their frames and slides are forged and I was also told by Sig that the only MIM parts is the disconnector, slide stop, thumb safety, and grip safety. This is on a Sig 1911 Extreme, so I guess it could vary. I have already replaced the disconnector and slide stop with Wilson parts.
1-Magazine Catch
2-Slide Stop
4-Thumb Safety
6-Firing Pin Stop
7-Grip Safety
Then I just saw a recoil spring guide rod out of a XO that was mim.
I'd like to pull the extractor out and see the inside portion of the piece... I spy a dang circle inside there. Just suspect ....for now.
I agree with jeepman. I have the sig ultra two tone. Sig says forged slide and frame. List of mim parts agrees too. Don't really care tho becuase I don't buy into all the concerns for mim parts-- especially as used by sig. Almost 1000 rds thru mine, not even a hint of an issue. Added vz blk/gry operator II grips and bought a couple of stainles 8rd mccormick mags and added the x-grip pinky extension to make it match my sig p238 w ext 7rd mags. love this pistol, smooth as butter.
Any MIM part I can find on a factory MIM list gets replaced -- if I strongly suspect it is MIM and it isn't on the factory list I still replace it with something that has the words "CNC machined", "Cut from solid bar stock after heat treating", "forged" or the like --- if it is from a company that I have learned that I can actually trust with my ass and all of it's associated fixtures, "hardcore" or "bulletproof" might be close enough.
I don't care what company makes it, how many rounds the part has survived, etc. etc. -- not having to worry about a critical failure at a critical moment is worth more than the cost of a few damn-close-to-unbreakable machined, forged, bulletproof and/or hardcore parts. I'd feel like a complete idiot getting rolled into the ER with a bullet in me if my pistol failed because I went with a company that used MIM crap to save a production buck or, even worse, if I knew the MIM parts were in my gun and I did not replace them just to save a few bucks.
Just take a look at the parts that several companies throw into the "safe for MIM" category: magazine catch, slide stop, ejector, thumb safety, disconnector, firing pin stop. Hmmm...none of those are critical? You get into a self defense situation at the local convenience store at midnight and:
1. mag catch snaps - your mag drops out and you have one round in the chamber. Good luck with your single shooter.
2. slide stop, ejector, thumb safety, disconnector, FP stop, - all worse than a broken mag catch. pull any of the above out of your 1911 and see how many rounds you can get down range. The only one that might not cause horrific and complete failure (and it would be a matter of luck) would be the thumb safety. However, depending on where it snapped, the broken parts from a thumb safety could very easily block the sear making it impossible to fire the pistol.
carpe noctem.
Do you only buy cars with forged pistons? Under what you just said, you would need to tear the engine down and replace them as you could get stranded in the middle of no where do to a catastrophic failure.
I have heard that the process of MIM parts being produced varies in production quality solely on how the manufacturer creates the specific part. I have also come to the conclusion that some manufacturers like to label their products as "bullet proof" to sell parts...kinda like "tacticool" and in the car world "after market"
For every 1 picture of a broken MIM part on the internet, there are 1,000,000 of the same still up and running (caution, the previous sentence/s contains a/an exaggeration/s)

Comparing a car to a carry pistol is possibly the worst analogy argument in the history of man and dog. In any event, that argument fails on another point...my car actually has pistons which were crafted from 2618-T61 SRS forged aluminum. It is a fairly serious go fast toy.
The "bulletproof" or "hardcore" parts I use in my pistols are ones that I have verified are not MIM. When top tier custom 1911 parts manufacturers will verify in writing that none of their parts are MIM, that is not just marketing hype.
Furthermore, Ed Brown seems to agree that MIM sucks:
"Do Ed Brown handguns have any MIM (metal injection molded) parts?
No, we use no MIM parts in Ed Brown firearms. While the current thinking is that MIM parts are "good enough" for firearm applications, this thinking doesn't fit with our philosophy at all."
I'll stick with Ed's philosophy when it comes to gun parts as I am fairly sure he knows what he is doing when he avoids the use of any MIM parts in his firearms. If you want to use MIM, have at it - I seriously hope your pistol doesn't break when you really need it work correctly.

Good grief man, please supply your documentation of known catastrophic Sig MIM 1911 part failures. If not, its just your opinion. All were hearing is "the sky is falling" rhetoric. I want to see the "snapped mag catch", or any other late model Sig 1911 component..lol
Like UrbanSI said; MIM parts being produced varies in production quality solely on how the manufacturer creates the specific part.
Sig builds a bad ass 1911. Its has high quality manufactured components and first rate support.
Then compared to a Ed Brown, well it isnt. Its a $800 pistola that works great.
I'm with you on forged components. If you want to add them, great. If you want them exclusively in a 1911. Step up and purchase a different brand.
Welcome to the Sig area and enjoy your ATI.
Best wishs from a fellow 1911 enthusiast................................. Troll
lol - the ATI is my kick around pistol -- I bought it just to play around with. My carry Commander (about to add a pic of it to the 1911 pic thread if I can find the flash diffuser) is a customized Colt from circa '94 - no MIM parts - most certainly none by the time I was finished with it. It is a nice mix of Brown, Wilson, Cylinder & Slide and Nowlin components. For that matter, I have seven 1911 design pistols and there are no MIM parts in any of them. My current pistol collection is about 20 (10 of which are over $2k after custom work and parts) including Sig, Beretta, Colt, Para, Kahr, Ruger, S&W, etc. If you want a shoot off, I'll gladly put my $3.5k custom Colt Commander up against your Sig in a Ransom Rest or any other type of machine that tests the full ability of pistols against other pistols. I assure you, I already know which one will win. Okay, that is unfair - I have a modded $1,250 Brolin Pro-Stock that will kick the crap out of any production Sig 1911 if you want to use it for comparison instead (it holds tighter 5 shot groups at 50 than every LBC premier II I have tried against it - I got really lucky on that one)
However, I am not trying to knock Sig at all as they are one of my favorite firearms companies. My W. Germany P220 (modified) is one of my favorite carry guns. Also, most of the larger firearms manufacturers use MIM parts under the theory that they are "good enough". If anything, I am knocking the "good enough" philosophy. Good enough is an approach for workout t-shirts and shoes to wear while mowing the front lawn -- not for carry pistols for serious work. If you start with a Sig 1911, it takes what? maybe $150 to $200 at most to replace all the MIM with forged? That is a small price to pay for something on the verge of failsafe parts. If you can scrape together the cash for a Sig, adding the parts here and there is not that much of a financial strain. Also, I realize the use of MIM parts makes the pistols more affordable for most -- I most certainly do not want to imply that the least expensive pistol on the market should be something in the range of $2500. However, I think that anyone with any sense would conclude that if they are using a pistol as a defensive firearm it could likely be a situation that would very well be the difference between going home later or going to the morgue. Granted, maybe I am a bit of an extremist but it is an occupational hazard -- I deal with hostile psychopaths five days of the week...maybe if you are not in those shoes, buying gun parts made out of candy wax at Walmart sounds like a deal.
carpe noctem.
You still haven't provided any "proof" that MIM parts fail at a rate faster than non-MIM parts.
If it is your opinion that's fine, but it is just an opinion, no matter how loudly you scream it.
Google Search Bill Wilson, and Wilson Combat, along with MIM..nothing wrong with QUALITY MIM.
Bill Wilson contributed concept of external extractor in the Sig 1911.
Sig Ultra IMO is better weapon than the Colt.
IMO, Colt is largely responsible for the reputation of Micro 1911's being unreliable. They were the first, its taken some years to get it right.
Owner Polls for Kimber Ultra pistols has shown them to be reliable.
Kimber began using ramped Bull barrels, double spring recoil, and Alloy frames
under the heavier steel sides, to correct some of the timing issues.
I believe Sig "got it right" with Ultra pistols. Most threads and posts, owners are very pleased.
The shooter, or the magazine, or the ammo, will fail, before the MIM will fail.
If you can manage a Dan Wesson ECO, that is the one to get. Spend $$$ on the carry weapon, save on a range weapon, or camping gun.

We have to give goodbye kisses to my brother tonight.
That's not something I ever wanted to have to do.
I love you, Riley, we all do.
We will be purring tonight and tomorrow.
All our love,
Sophie and Zack, Harry, Jack, Enzo, Hannah, Stinky, Xerox, Angus, Annabelle, Cary, Kate, Queso, Copy, Sissy, Wally, Lily, Ivy, Charlie, Matilda, Bubba, Pete, Emme, Violet, Claire, Kira, DC, Lucy, Griffin, Larke, Dalton, Fisher, and Lizzy
This is a very important day to me.
It is a bittersweet memory of two years ago, December 1, 2007.
It's the day my beloved Wally made his journey to the Bridge after bravely battling illness.
The Bridge took him too young. We had planned a lifetime together.
Plans changed.
My Wally died, but our love did not. The wonderful giving and kind spirit of him lives on forever. Our love lives on forever. My heart is his forever.
To my Wally Bear...fly into my heart, fill it with warmth and love. Fill it with treasured memories. Fill it with a promise of eternal love. For I will never leave you, and you will never leave me, and one day we will be together again, for ever and ever.~Love always, Sophie
I have to write fast...mom is as busy as a bee today. No, make that as busy as a bee hive!
I have to say quickly that my page is filled with lovely gifts from my even lovelier friends!
Thank you all so very, very much. I will send everyone something purrsonal in the next few days.
Secondly, I got my birthday wish, if only for a half day. It cleared up yesterday afternoon, and the sun came out! Stinky was breathing better when mom & dad came home last night. He ate his dinner and took all his medicine without being forced. This morning he meowed at mom, which he doesn't do when he is sick. But alas, it began to rain in the early hours of the morning, and it is gray, and wet outside now. :(
We have had a drought this summer, so everyone wanted rain, just not all of it in only a few days.
Well, as my beloved Wally says, "Gotta fly".
I hope to be back later.
Love and kisses, Sophie
P.S. I bet you thought I forgot to tell you about my birthday present? It was a small feather boa like thing, on a stick, and I sit on my haunches and bat it endlessly! Mom will take a picture soon! ~xoxoxo Sophie

|2000 / Round: 1 / Pick: 29
|Career history
|Career NFL statistics
Rodney Jay Soward (born January 16, 1978) is a former gridiron football wide receiver.
College career[edit]
He burst onto the college football scene with a 4-touchdown game vs. UCLA in his freshman season with USC. Despite Soward's superior skills, he never reached his potential in his USC career, ending his tenure with 32 touchdowns in four seasons.[1]
Professional career[edit]
The Jacksonville Jaguars took him with their first-round selection (29th overall) in the 2000 NFL Draft. Soward did not take the pressure of being a first-round selection very well. "I think the hardest part for me was dealing with all the pressure after getting drafted," he recalls. "I didn't play well my first year so people were on me a lot. I wish I would have went to New Orleans in the second round. I wish I hadn't ever been a first round draft pick. I felt that New Orleans had a better staff to suit me at that time. I think being with those guys would have changed my future in the NFL."[2]
After wearing out his welcome with the Jags in training camp, before playing in his first game under head coach Tom Coughlin (who had gone so far as to send a limousine, at the team's expense, to pick up Soward every day for practice, just to make sure he would come), he was suspended several times by the NFL for violating the league's substance abuse policy. He has not filed for re-instatement since his last suspension. Though many media outlets attributed the suspension to marijuana, his suspension came as a result of alcohol abuse. "I can honestly say I was an alcoholic at that time in my life," Soward recollects. "That's why I'm not playing in the NFL, because I was an alcoholic at that time."[2]
After entering the NFL's substance abuse program, Soward was critical about its effectiveness. "It was horrible counseling. I've been in every rehab centre known to man," said Soward. "They even had the nerve to put me in rehab in Miami, the drug capital of the world. I don't really think the rehabilitation process is very good for players down there. I think it is more of a disciplinary kind of rehabilitation which doesn't teach anybody anything. For me, the more they took away from me the more it made me want to drink, the more it made me want to feel depressed, the more it made me want to feel bad about me."[2]
Soward ended his lone season in the NFL appearing in 13 games, and caught 14 passes for 154 yards with one touchdown.[3]
It was not until four years later that Soward's pro football career was resurrected in Canada. On May 18, 2004, the Toronto Argonauts signed him to a contract.
As an Argonaut, his primary role in the offense was as a fly route receiver that stretched the defense and whose long receptions usually translated into touchdowns. This was reflected in his touchdown to reception ratio of 10:39 (as of August 19, 2006). The only drawback to Soward's Argonaut tenure has been maintaining his health for a full season.
In his first year with the team, Soward went on to win a Grey Cup Championship.
In 2005, Soward and the Argonauts were unable to repeat as back-to-back champions, losing the Eastern Division Championship to the Montreal Alouettes. In that game, Soward was dubiously remembered for an overzealous touchdown celebration. After scoring a touchdown, he ran into a concession stand setup behind the end zone, grabbed a bag of popcorn, and shared it with a teammate and nearby fans. Though his touchdown helped to put his team up 14-0 after the first quarter, the Argos got outscored 33-3 for the next three quarters. That led many to believe that Soward's timing for his celebration stunt was not only premature, but a catalyst that fired up the Alouettes. "It was a very spontaneous thing and I apologize to the people of Toronto if they feel I took away our opportunity, but I was just making an atmosphere where people can enjoy the game and see something different."[2]
In 2006, when asked about the popcorn incident prior to a rematch against the Alouettes, Soward stated that he felt the criticism against him was unjust and that he would do it again if the opportunity presented itself.[3] He told Los Angeles radio station KLAC that he got the popcorn idea from seeing Keyshawn Johnson do it after scoring a touchdown when he was playing football for West Los Angeles College. During the East Division semi-final that year, Soward caught the game winning touchdown to help the Argonauts advance to the division finals which they went on to lose vs. the Alouettes in Montreal.
On December 15, 2006, Soward was released by the Argonauts. Since then he has been making a living in repairing televisions and working in a warehouse.[1]
For the 2011 season, Soward signed to play with the Ontario Warriors.[4]

What magical accurate QB is going to run this up tempo offense without turning the ball over 68 times?

What magical accurate QB is going to run this up tempo offense without turning the ball over 68 times?
Its going to be interesting to say the least.
God help Kelly in Filthadelphia though if the wheels fall off the cart and that offense falls flat on its face.
I gotta imagine its a toned down version of the offense he ran or its going to be a disaster with that stable of QB's
Eagles fan: "Hey Kelly, this isn't the west coast and this isn't college anymore ya jackass!"
Wish they would do Hard Knocks. Who's gonna hold the big cards on the sideline?
Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
Kelly should be thankful he landed in a such a mediocre division. Even if Philly gets blown out in Denver for a 1-3 start, it won't put them out of the running. Dallas hasn't convinced me they've turned a corner, the Giants are doing their usual Jekyll & Hyde thing, and Washington looks set for a reality check this year with a tougher 1st-place schedule - something they're not accustomed to. Anybody could win the NFC East.
Turnovers killed them last night, one pick six and dropped punt in the red zone, fumble in the red zone. You're not going to win games like that. Plus their longest drive was like 3 minutes and the D, which played well, had to be gassed.
Anyone hear the penalty "false start, everyone but the center" ?
It's not going to be any more difficult than it already is to find an accurate QB to run that up tempo offense than it would be to find a reliable QB to run any other offense. Didn't the Patriots average over 70 plays a game last year? I think Brady did just fine. The hard part will be finding a QB who can also be a run threat if they want to continue to incorporate that into the offense post-Vick. I'm not sure that is a requirement for Kelly since they drafted Barkley, who, well, isn't a run threat.
That's the questionable part of the offense to me, the whole read option thing. I think you already see that fad kind of flaming out, at least as a base offense like some teams seemed to use it as last year. Griffin got hurt and the Skins haven't done it hardly at all. Kaep through two games has hardly ran it at all. I don't think Wilson has either.

LSD/Headers/Cams Question
hey guys, I currently have a 2000 323ci, If I dont sell my supercharger to do a s54 swap I will strap my charger on and buy a LSD and headers and possibly cams... What diff would be perfect for a blown 323? If you have links I would apretiate it, also what about cams and headers what brands would you suggest and also post links if you have them... By the way I dont want ebay headers so dont post pics of those please... All quality parts please, Thanks..
Technik headers and Schrick or Technik FI cams.
ya I was thinking technick headers/cams as thats what my supercharger is but I am sending my ecu to be reprogrammed to AA so I may just buy active headers and skip out on the cams as there really pricey and exspensive to install, as for the LSD I have heard 3.46 diffs are best for my application, Do I just buy a stock used diff someone is buying and have it rebuilt or is there rebuilt diffs out there for sale? If so can someone send me a link I know Tunermotorsport sells them but I cant find one on the site for some reason lol..
Go with the Technik headers. Better gains.
I don't believe Turner is stocking limited slip units any more. Koala Motorsport, Performance Gearing, Diffsonline, and Metric Mechanic will build you a complete diff in whatever ratio you want. They'll ship you the built diff then you swap it in and return your old diff for a refund of the core charge.
hey thanks for the companys websites... I priced out a diff at diffsonlines website and a diff for my 2000 323 in a 3.46 ratio is 3800-600 core charge+shipping? Thats seems like alot I remember turner motorsport used to have a LSD for 1999 which I thought wasalot at the time but now that I have the money it seems to be even more?
hey alright I somewhat understand now... So diffs are over 3000$ your saying as there custom made and ready to swap right in? Thanks
Depends on a lot of things. I'd call Diffsonline and discuss what your options are.

United lures top fliers with promise of a hot meal
To win the hearts of frequent business travelers, United Airlines is going through their stomachs.
The carrier has been looking for ways to woo back some of its top fliers who defected to other carriers after a rocky merger with Continental Airlines. So, it's upgrading first-class food options and replacing snacks with full meals on some of its shortest flights.
The changes, announced Aug. 21, mean that instead of potato chips, chocolate chip cookies and bananas, passengers on flights of at least 800 miles will get meals such as chicken and mozzarella on a tomato focaccia roll and turkey and Swiss cheese on a cranberry baguette. Now, meals are only served on flights of 900 miles or more — trips that usually last close to two hours.
Passengers on 13 extra routes will be getting full meal service starting in February.
The move comes as American Airlines goes the other way, eliminating hot meals on most flights of less than 1,000 miles starting Sept. 1. The change — which upset many frequent fliers — is part of American's merger with US Airways and does expand meals to some US Airways flights that previously only had snacks. Delta Air Lines serves first-class meals on flights of more than 900 miles.
That means United will offer full meals on more short flights than its competitors, although each airline makes exceptions for some key shorter business routes like the 731-mile trip between New York and Chicago.
United already this month replaced two bland salad options with four heartier choices. Starting Sept. 1, three frozen and reheated sandwiches now served will be replaced by eight sandwich and wrap choices made daily. In the fall, it will add prosecco sparkling wine to its beverage menu.
In an industry known for its razor-thin profit margins, food has always been a target of cost-cutting. With U.S. airlines each year carrying 645 million passengers domestically, every little food decision had big implications. In the 1980s, then American Airlines CEO Robert Crandall famously decided to remove a single olive from every salad. The thought was: passengers wouldn't notice and American would save $40,000 a year.
It's been a decade since most airlines stopped serving free meals in coach on domestic flights.
United has been struggling since its 2010 merger with Continental. It lags behind American and Delta in the number of planes with Wi-Fi, its on-time performance slipped and a series of computer glitches have left passengers angry.

Good eveing
I have decided to plumb for the Chester marathon in October. Now that gives me just over 4 months training. I have done 3 HM's and my PB is 2hrs 30 sec. I haven't ran that distance for 10 months now, I am being crazy by thinking I could do the full distance.
I have started running again about 3 months ago and doing 5k in 25.46 and 10K in 51.42 and also doing 400m sprints 5 times on Tuesday nights
Can someone give me some guidance, I would love to do it in sub 4 hr..
I'm also doing the Chester marathon in October. Been training for 6 months or so, done 1 half marathon in 2hrs 8 mins, just done a 10k in 52:50. Best 5k of 25mins. Your times suggest that you need to do endurance training because a 10k time like you have is well on course for a sub 2 hour HM and around 4hr marathon.
However, I'm just a beginner on the journey training for a 1st marathon.
My advice, forget sub 4hr. It's not that you can't do it, or won't do it (although it is very very unlikely), but that having that in mind will disrupt a very achievable goal of enjoying the completion of your first marathon. (It is your first, right?) Off your present HM PB I'd think you'd be looking at 4:30 for the Full, so that's the kind of figure you have to get into your head and spend time on your feet preparing for.
There's a huge amount to learn from your first marathon (from every marathon really) and what you learn will tell you what you need for subsequent ones in which your goals can be more time oriented. Right now you need to gradually get used to longer and longer runs, to work your aerobic systems, and you only really have three months before you've got to be up to your longest training distance. So, for this one, run lots (gradually building up) and run slow (with a little speed lightly sprinkled in).
Just seen the replies chaps! so thankyou.. training is going well, was injured for two weeks but I've have just put in an 1hr 56 HM so well on course for 4hr 30 full.. cheers!
Just a slight word of warning on the HM to Marathon conversion Martin. I recently experienced this and was very confident of converting a sub-1.30 HM into a sub-3.15 full marathon however foolishly neglected to consider the difference in nutritional intake required for the two distances so make sure you try running whilst taking on energy drinks/sachets/sweets etc. as this is what I have found to be of the most importance when doing the full marathon distance.
To this into perspective, I clocked 2h29m at the 19-mile mark, which was obviously a pretty decent pace however at about the 20.5 mile mark I crashed well and truly due to glycogen depletion and struggled immensely thereafter with any energy I then took on not having the full impact. I finished in 3h40m so a pretty sedate last 7 miles!
Best of luck with the conversion!
Rhosddu I'm running Chester and plan to do 4:30 / quicker for my 1st marathon. I'm race no. 271. Message me if you fancy running along with me and we can get together. I did a 1hr59 HM over an undulating off-road course in J
Rhosddu I'm running Chester and plan to do 4:30 / quicker for my 1st marathon. I'm race no. 271. Message me if you fancy running along with me and we can get together. I did a 1hr59 HM over an undulating off-road course in July and have now done 5k parkrun (off-road) in 24mins, so ought to be at a similar level to you.
Hi Anthony
No worries, would be good to run with someone espically after the 20 mile mark lol (that would be new ground for me. I'm not sure of my bib number as yet... as soon as I know I'll message you my mobile if you want?
The 4:30 prediction was pretty much spot-on!

We all have in our circle of friends someone who "believes" to know everything about everything… Someone who gives his/her opinion about anything you're talking about… even (and especially) when you don't ask him/her… This person is usually an expert in politics, art, business, anthropology, astrophysics, finance, fashion, zodiac, poetry and even entomology (science that studies insects)… He/she even knows you parents better than you…
And it is funny how those people usually base their general knowledge on what they read on facebook or what they heard from other people … and what they heard becomes the truth, only the truth, nothing but the truth… without any references or any scientific proof…
I have the chance to be circled by many illuminated "friends"… so let me share with you the type of quotes I hear everyday:
- In Politics: ana 3am 2ellak jtama3o bi bériz, bas ma 7adan 3érif… wel "Cheikh El Me7ché" tara2o sa7sou7 lal "Captain America", w2allo 7arfiyyan: "men boukra ana bsir ra2is el le3bé"… 2allo l Captain America: "khalas singouf".
Question: if "ma 7adan 3erif" how do you know? And how do you know exactly what have been said?
- In art: Come on ma3roufé inno Mona Lisa kenit bento la DaVinci… ma houwwé Léonardo keno yghannjou "Mona" bi italia…. W Lisa ye3ne "bento la" bel telyéné l adim. Walaw chou 3am bet 3allemné? Ma ana artiste w ba3rif kif bi fakkro l artists… w aslan law byefhamo bi lebnen, kenet ana 3am bi3 aktar men Picasso….
Question: one mystery solved!... inno keno yghannjou Mona? Kifa Mona?
- Finance: Ana 3am 2ellak, europa badda tofrout wel euro baddo ysir arkhas mnel lira ekhir el séné… chouf chou 3am bi sir bel younen bta3rif… kella le3bit amerca
Question: inta bta3rif chou sar bel younen bel asses?
Anyways, yalla khallaset tonzir for today… let me end my post with a dedication to all my illuminated friends… a classic poetry verse by Abou Nawas:
فقل لمن يدعي في العلم فلسفة حفظت شيئا وغابت عنك أشياء
