April 2012, Louisville KY:
In an effort to bring the Volkswagen/Audi community, as well as our current and future customers, the best possible products and software, we felt it was necessary to invest in a new Mustang Dynamometer for more in depth tuning capabilities. For the last few years, we have been using a Dyno at another shop next door as well as a couple others around town. This has worked for a while but after a fantastic season last year and what seems to be a growing interest in performance/motorsports over the past 8-10 months, the idea of getting a development tool in-house began to take shape. The decision became much easier at SEMA late last year once we had the opportunity to sit and talk with the guys from Mustang Dynamometer and learn more about the capabilities of this amazing tool as well as what it could help us bring the community.
It became very apparent that the best way to provide and develop quality, in-depth tunes to our customer base was through the purchase and utilization of a dyno in our facility. With it being late January and wanting it to be operational before May, it was time to start planning.
The challenge then became: where are we going to put this thing? With the dimensions of the dyno at 11.5' wide x 25' long (with ramps attached) and plans already set in place to go All-Wheel Drive with the dyno within the year, we had to find a space in our facility long enough to house the monstrosity and accomodate for further expansion. Challenge accepted.
Towards the rear of our facility, there was a large room, more long than wide, with a smaller room attached to it. It had been used for miscellaneous storage and appeared at first glance to be ideal for a dyno room. Tape measures came out and after much deliberation, we decided to get the ball rolling with demolition and construction plans. It seemed at first like an insurmountable task considering this room had remained untouched for AT LEAST 10 years (honestly, it looked like a century) and looked like an episode of Hoarders thanks to the landlords.
Time to do work.
The next day, a plethora of calls were made to start the project. A dumpster was ordered, a shipping container was delivered as temporary storage for the room's contents, and a local construction company was contracted to start on the room within the week. It wasn't long before the sounds of sledge hammers, saws and hammers began to ring in our ears as we spent our days working and periodically going back to check on the destruction at hand. In what seemed like a couple days, the dividing wall was knocked down, the whole room was stripped and it was fully framed and ready for drywall. Days turned into weeks and before we could blink, the room was dry-walled, spackled, and ready for paint. A good coat of floor sealant was applied, electricians came in to finish up the wiring and just like that, the room was ready for its new resident.
That same week, we received a call from Mustang saying our dyno was finished and ready for delivery. Needless to say, we started to really get excited as what was once a dream was slowly becoming a reality. With the lights wired, walls painted and floor dry, we were ready.
On April 20th, the beautiful "Mustang Sally" was delivered to our facility and in little to no time, she was already off the trailer and being carefully moved into her new room (now she's just waiting for her big screen and decorations to be hung on the wall). It wasn't as easy task, by any means, but she was completely settled in less than an hour.
The following Monday, a representative from Mustang came by to show us the ropes and after a day's worth of training, we were ready to go. A 2010 2.5L Golf (a customer from TX who is our Mk6 Turbo Kit test car) was promptly strapped to the dyno and as of Tuesday, we are already doing development on Mk6 2.5L N/A, SRI, Turbo, and SRI Turbo software.
For over a decade, C2Motorsports has placed a HUGE emphasis on delivering a quality, well engineered product combined with exceptional customer service to an ever-evolving car scene. This dyno is insurance that our business model will stay that way as we develop more and more superior products for you, our customers.

Just about everyone born before 1969 remembers watching Neil Armstrong take his first steps on the moon.
Six hundred million viewers were glued to their televisions for the momentous event but what few people know is the pictures came courtesy of a radio telescope in the middle of a field in rural Australia.
The observatory, near the small town of Parkes in New South Wales, was built in 1961 and spent its first eight years listening to the stars. But in early 1969, Nasa asked it to perform a more glamorous task: to receive signals from the first men on the moon and beam them to mission control in Houston.
As they prepare to mark the 40th anniversary of the Apollo 11 landing next Tuesday, Parkes' locals still recall the sense of anticipation in the town.
The press had descended, as had four Nasa engineers. "We'd been preparing for weeks," says Neil "Fox" Mason, who operated the telescope on that crucial day.
Parkes seemed the perfect choice: its dish, 64m wide, was the largest in the Southern Hemisphere and it was relatively free from radio interference. That was the theory, at least. A week before take-off, the observatory director, John Bolton, said: "Perhaps our biggest weakness is the weather."
His words proved prescient. But it wasn't only the weather that proved problematic. Armstrong and his fellow astronaut Buzz Aldrin were scheduled to rest for six hours when they landed but they were too excited and decided to leave the lunar module straight away.
The moon had not yet risen over Parkes. It looked as if the telescope's starring role - which later inspired a whimsical Australian film, The Dish - would instead go to Nasa's tracking station in Goldstone, California. Mason, retired and still living in Parkes, recalls: "Armstrong threw a spanner in the works". But the pair took so long to don their spacesuits and depressurise the cabin that the moon was just emerging when they finally appeared. David Cooke, the senior receiving engineer that day, says: "The timing was remarkable".
For the first nine minutes, Houston switched between Goldstone, Parkes and another Nasa station at Honeysuckle Creek, near Canberra.
But Parkes' pictures were far superior, so for the remainder of the 2-hour broadcast, it was their images that were transmitted around the world.
Then the weather changed. "This great storm front came through and caught us all unawares," Mason says. "It was pretty hair-raising. All the alarms were ringing and the control tower was shuddering and swaying."
The wind was well outside the safety limits, but Bolton chose to continue anyway.
Mason remained at the controls of the 1000-tonne dish, which was tipped to the ground, in its most vulnerable position.
"You just hoped the thing wasn't going to come crashing down on top of you," he says.
When Armstrong stepped on to the moon, one of the American engineers observed laconically: "How about that". '
In 1970, the telescope helped astronauts aboard the stricken Apollo 13 return to Earth and it has supported a string of missions since, including Galileo's probe of Jupiter in 1996. It has also made numerous discoveries.
Over coffee in the nearby Dish Cafe, John Sarkissian, the observatory's operations scientist, ticks them off: "We discovered the magnetic field of the Milky Way galaxy. We identified the most distant objects in the universe, the quasars.
"We've discovered more pulsars [spinning cores of collapsed stars] than all other radio telescopes combined. We've mapped the distribution of hydrogen in our galaxy to over 300 million years distant."
Mason often harks back to that day in 1969. "I still think about it a lot. It was the time of my life."

A security guard who plunged 350 feet to his death from a City skyscraper was "destroyed" by the break-up of his marriage, an inquest heard.
Officers investigating Kevan Ward's death discovered a number of texts in which the father-of-one told of the "horrendous" time he was having.
Mr Ward, 46, fell from a roof terrace of the Willis building, the London HQ of the global re-insurance giant where he worked as a security supervisor. In a message sent to his girlfriend Michelle days before his death on September 12, he wrote: "There is so much to tell you about the horrendous last five months such as ill health, not sleeping properly, various depressions but most of all, I'm scared."
City of London coroner's court heard that in another message to Michelle on September 11, Mr Ward wrote: "I don't think you would have wanted my company today. I didn't want my company today. I just want one thing and that is to sleep tonight."
The inquest was told how the security guard had been depressed following the break-up of his 16-year marriage to wife Nicola. He had moved into the spare room of his sister's flat in Grays, Essex, after the split in June and was looking for a flat near his family in Essex.
Pc Kim Vandermark, one of the officers investigating the death, said Mr Ward had received messages of support. "There was a text saying 'Remember you are not alone'," she said. "There was another one on September 11 at 8.33am from his sister Colleen saying
'I hope you feel better. Just remember, these feelings will go away.' "
Lee Koch, regional manager for Mitie security, said he had offered Mr Ward a promotion and spoken to him "four or five times" about his marriage problems and offered to help. However, he conceded that he did not refer him to the occupational health therapist.
The coroner adjourned the inquest until January 16.Reuse content

Rupee can weaken further against the US dollar: Latha Venkatesh
CNBC-TV18's banking editor Latha Venkatesh joined IBNLive readers for an interaction on Indian Rupee vs US Dollar.
The US dollar's drastic gain on the Indian Rupee will make imports expensive and exports cheaper. But what effect will it have on inflation and on key sectors like manufacturing, technology and tourism? What will be its domino effect on employment numbers? If FIIs (Foreign Institutional Investor) pull out their money, FDI (Foreign direct investments) is also going to be affected. CNBC-TV18's banking editor Latha Venkatesh joined IBNLive readers for an interaction on the issue.
Q. Is the Exchange rate mechanism purely driven by supply and demand position? Any scope exists for manipulation by vested interests? Asked by: sundar1950in
A. It is largely driven by supply and demand. On occasions there can be excessive speculation. Manipulation is difficult. It's quite a large market. No one player is so significant. Sometimes the RBI (Reserve bank of India) can manipulate it, by selling or buying dollars. But even their power is limited.
Q. Who is to blame RBI (Reserve bank of India) or government? Asked by: Shyam Vadalker
A. For what?
Q. This time around RBI (Reserve bank of India) has not done much of intervention to arrest the slide, which has been steep ? Asked by: sundar1950in
A. Yes. The RBI (Reserve bank of India) seems inclined to let the market correct itself.
Q. It was being told for past few days that Rupee has been over living it's existing value and it is supposed to fall to 70 per dollar. How far is this correct? What are the factors which can drive it? Asked by: Thumma
A. It is tough to give a correct value like 60 or 65 or 70. The rupee can weaken a little more from current levels of 60, but experts mostly believe rupee will veer back to 60 on an average this year. Factors which drive the rupee are exports, cost and amount of our imports, FII flows etc.
Q. Ma'am is fiscal deficit and rupee value directly related? If so, the populist schemes are government are also partly to blame for the Rupee fall? (in general if not at the current moment of this steep fall). Asked by: kartheek
A. You are 100% correct. Populist schemes funded by printing money increase purchasing power and lead to higher consumption, and higher imported goods consumption. Higher fiscal deficit increases inflation, makes Indian exports uncompetitive; higher inflation means rupee buys fewer goods in India and fewer dollars as well.
Q. Is it not natural for Rupee to depreciate by the difference in rate of inflation in USA and India? Asked by: Sameer
A. Yes. But not just US. It is Indian inflation versus the inflation of its 6 major trading partners. This covers about 90% of the import-export transactions.
Q. How do you see the Indian economy's position right now? Do we have adequate reserves? It was also pointed out by Raghuram rajan that with too many regulations investors are not satisfied. Asked by: sree
A. Yes Rajan has a point. Our rules, sometimes unnecessarily harasses foreign investors. A lot of files move only on bribes. We do have decent reserves. But that is not a permanent answer to supporting the currency. Ultimately, our exports have to be more than our imports. For that we have to be competitive. We have to produce goods more efficiently than others.
Q. What will be the impact on CAD (current account deficit), Fiscal Deficit, FIIs (Foreign Institutional Investor), FDIs ( Foreign direct investments), GDP and more importantly Inflation. Governments promises of bright future just remained a promise. What concrete measures should government take to regain the hopes of double digit growth rates? Asked by: Thumma
A. Growth comes from honest sincere work, from governments not spending more than they earn by way of taxes, from clearing files quickly and honestly, from the judiciary clearing cases quickly, form politicians, bureaucrats and citizens being uncorrupt. This is at once easy and difficult to achieve.
Q. How do you explain that US which has printed trillions of dollars in a scheme called "Financial easing" is still able to keep its currency stronger and inflation lower where India's currency is going down the drain and inflation running rampant? Asked by: pirabukannan
A. Very good question. India also prints a lot of money. We don't openly call it quantitative easing. We call it OMO (open market operations). Secondly, US dollar printing will also lead to inflation the moment bank loan growth and economic growth picks up. That is why the US Fed is talking about ending quantitative easing.
Q. Ma'am, Is it time to agree that bad politics are pushing our economy down and ask our politicians to help in building our country? Asked by: Independent
A. That's perennially true. They have been asked a million times. They don't oblige.

News Release
Council Roundup: Light rail report headed to Sound Transit
Also, future Bel-Red arterial discussed
The city council on Monday voted to cut short further work by a consultant hired to study a light rail route from Interstate 90 to downtown Bellevue and send a final report to the Sound Transit Board next week.
The report, by Arup North America Ltd., had been scheduled for completion in late July. Council members wanted to move up the date so the information would get to the Sound Transit board before the board voted on its preferred alignment for the East Link light rail project. An interim report was presented to the council on May 16; that work will be the basis of the final report.
Also expedited was a third and final public meeting on the B7-Revised Alternative Analysis Report. The event at City Hall will now be on Wednesday, June 29, with a presentation from 5:30 to 6 p.m. and an open house from 6 to 7 p.m.
Along with the report, council will send a letter to Sound Transit highlighting the benefits of the B7-Revised route -- including fewer traffic impacts and better ridership -- and asking the board to consider the route as the agency completes its final environmental review.
The Arup report compares a light rail alignment (called B7-Revised) the council designated for further examination with a similar route studied by Sound Transit (B7) in a draft environmental review of the East Link project. Arup found the B7-Revised alternative is a feasible alternative to B7 -- with improved ridership but a slightly higher cost.
Both B7 routes roughly follow a path east along Interstate 90, then north along the western edge of Interstate 405 to downtown Bellevue. Both alternatives studied connect to a downtown tunnel, but at different locations.
The final cost of the truncated report will be $700,000, slightly higher than the $670,000 originally budgeted, due to several changes made since the work began in January.
For more information, see the council agenda item at http://www.bellevuewa.gov/pdf/City%20Council/PacketExtendedStudySession6-13-113c.pdf; the city's light rail web pages or Sound Transit's East Link project pages.

Also, future Bel-Red arterial discussed The council reviewed details for a new arterial through the Bel-Red area intended to be the anchor for redevelopment of the corridor.
The 1.5-mile east-west thoroughfare will be Northeast 15th Street part of the way, then bend north to become Northeast 16th Street. Plans call for the arterial to enhance Bel-Red's transformation from a 900-acre mostly light industrial area to a mixed-use, transit-oriented development with restored streams and new parks.
The future East Link light rail line will run along part of the new arterial, and two light rail stations are proposed -- at 120th Avenue Northeast and 130th Avenue Northeast, with a park-and-ride proposed at the 130th Avenue station.
The position of the rail line, the area's topography and varying levels of anticipated development mean the arterial will not have the same features the whole way. The number of vehicle lanes and features including on-street parking, bike lanes and landscaping will vary.
The council had reviewed plans for 15th/16th Street in October and again in March. Recommendations from the Transportation Commission were presented last night.
The council had a lengthy discussion about the project, and some members expressed concern about the cost of the westbound lane of 16th Street being elevated when it crosses the light rail tracks when it bends southward. Several questions were raised about costs and timing of the whole arterial project with the construction of light rail through Bel-Red.
The council also got an early look at stormwater management for the Bel-Red area, with plans aimed at addressing stormwater flow, treatment and wetland enhancements from a broad framework accounting for all projects in the area. Several creeks flow through the area.

Moscow-based photographer Alexander Khokhlov and makeup artist Valeriya Kutsan have teamed up to create an amazing series of portraits, using the natural lines of models' faces to create illusionary forms.
The series is cleverly called "2D or Not 2D" and is designed to make the faces look like 2D images when viewed in real life.
"Valeriya used different techniques of face painting so you can see a lot of variations – from sketch and graphic arts to water-color and oil-paintings," Khokhlov said. "This is a combination of interesting make-ups, studio photography experiments and careful retouching."

Dude… It's just a corset.
That is not what I got from that at all. I thought it represented the idea that we are all locked up in corsets, which control what we say and do.
Are you serious? It looks like a corset or lace-up boot. Plus, you know the image has been converted to black and white to enhance the contrast between light and dark right? I believe you are reading far too much into it.
I guess that's just your interpretation. I don't see it that way at all. Would be interested to hear if others see it the same way you do.
Cocaine is a hell of a drug
You're a troll, aren't you? It doesn't even look like skin. I'm pretty sure it's light hidden under darkness but not about literal complexion.
I don't think that was the intention, you are racist for suggesting it. RACIST!
Then it would have been symbolized by a zipper, and not a corset…? I think it's purely fashion and art.
thosequietmoments you're a moron and it's dangerous comments like that that cause more offence than the thing you're moaning about in the first place. Not for one second did i think that was the message and I think you're looking for something that isn't there just to say you saw it. The colours used aren't even possible skin tones of humans, they're absolute blank and white – also used in the 3 pictures before as well. Are you not u[set they're implying we're all circuit boards as well? THINK!
it's a corset, silly (or hockey skates, or anything else you need to lace up). It's about seeing a 3D face as a 2D picture of something else. Everything doesn't have symbolize something else.
huh? i didn't get that from the picture at all. i thought it just looked like a corset with eyes. Kind of like "wanna take a peek?" I didn't see it a racial thing at all. 🙁
art is in the eye of the beholder, if you're seeing some racial undertone, it's likely you with the issue, not the art. the work is amazing on all the faces!!
Or it could simply mean that there is light and dark inside everyone and that's what balances life
As a person sharing the same heritage as the artists in this post, I can assure you that thought would have never crossed their mind. Come to think of it, there is probably only a handful of people in the world that could make that connection. It would be like saying that the artist meant to say all people are really green pigs or everyone is a square. It's art, don't superimpose an issue that is troubling you onto everything you see.
Which is not unlike the chinese yin yang symbol
Calm down
Or it's just a corset.
Wow. That's racist. No I'm pretty sure it's about facades n clothing. I didnt for once think race and black or white people. You racist…
I think you are thinking too far into it.
They are merely optical illusions, and with your kind of thinking one could say the same of such mundane things, like ink on paper being inherently racist. Perhaps one perpetuates the struggle of humanity by fighting for distinction, as oppose to assimilation.
Google translate?
Thosequietmoments… I think that means you're racist..
Funny – I got out of it a woman breaking free from her bonds. To each her own 🙂
I'm pretty sure that's a stupid interpretation.
Haven't any of you ever been taught the meaning of art?!?!? It's goal is to get you to think about something in a way that's not obvious. Assumed simple pieces are often the most loaded with meaning. By saying this makeup artist spent hours "just painting a corset" is saying that none of this is art. You are suppose to interpret it. Art is not some passive form of entertainment that encourages you to be simple minded. THINK ABOUT WHAT THE ARTIST MAY BE TRYING TO COMMUNICATE! She didn't just waste her time reminding you what a damn corset looks like. Why don't you all try to contribute by sharing how you interpret it??? I was hoping more people would be interested in discussing the artful meaning of this woman's work rather than just drooling stupidly at the screen saying "Cool!" and moving on.
Thanks for sharing a real interpretation instead of trolling good people you don't even know. I appreciate that and find that idea to be really interesting! Makes me wonder about the irony here, using makeup (something meant to cover and hide the truth) to expose this reality of people living with a facade… I wonder…
I believe you are not reading enough into it. This woman is clearly a talented artists and artists never create pieces without instilling meaning into it. Artist don't just want to entertain you, they want you to think about something differently, find meaning when it's not apparent. Art is only art when it is jam packed with meaning up for interpretation. It's suppose to challenge you to think… Why don't you look at it again and share with me what it makes you feel and think about? Honor the artist with your willingness to give her work a second thought.
Wow, you made a HUGE jump there. Education (both institutional and life) will teach you how to stop believing you know everything about everyone and everything and help you to use more than 1% of that huge brain in your scull. This made me laugh, thanks.
My bad, I forgot you owned the internet.
E.G.O= Everyone's Greatest Obstacle
…Good luck…May the odds be ever in your favor…
"I didn't once think." Great observation, I couldn't agree with you more.
I see that too! Just wondering what was the artists intent behind the color choices and how that helps her communicate her message because both layers could have been any color.
Wake up.
In mimicry of your condescending tone: As an educated person, I can assure you that the whole point of art is to communicate meaning up for interpretation. Art is not your TV, a form of passive entertainment. It's meant to get you to think. The hyperbole of green pigs and squares to resemble the nature of interpretation of this art piece is so arrogant. Careful, your ego seems to be getting in the way of your logic…
Besides that obvious fact, how the hell do you have the audacity to speak for everyone of your "heritage." This comment is unbelievable and incredibly concerning. I didn't know sharing heritage gave you a shared consciousness, I thought individuality of identity and beliefs was a thing. My mistake.
You've clearly got a lot to learn in this life. You can't have wisdom with that sort of arrogance.
For someone who claims to be smart, that's an interesting post.
I do think you may be reading too much into it. Most of the other ones are about creating illusions. Black and white are good contrasting colors and is used in the 3 pictures above that one without such a meaning
Yeah, I think it's suppose to symbolize entrapment of expectations; that underneath, your dreams and personal goals are still there, trying to bust out of the ever tightening vice of society. I don't think it was meant to be about racial differences. I think the black and white symbolize "dark" and "light" / "sad" and "happy" / "evil" and "good", you know?? The "evil" being the burdening expectations and the "good" is your true self shining past all of it. That's what I got from it.
A racial interpretation? That's more of an insight in to your mental process and it speaks volumes about were your subconscious thoughts reside…… considering that's what YOU got out of it.
Wow!!! that's so wonderful!!!
"Haven't any of you ever been taught the meaning of art?!?!? It's goal is to get you to think about something in a way that's not obvious."
Possibly racist but definitely patronising!
Isso que dar fumar crack e depois vir ver as imagens. Deixa a pessoa embaraçada mentalmente.
Amazing art. Specially I liked the black and white dual face…
Pingback: maillot psg beckham
Not all artists, including make up artists have an 'underlying meaning' to their work.
I can tell you that the last 3 images are a theme of 'monochrome'. Painting black and white on the face is a VERY difficult task in itself, and the mua has perfectly executed this. And what someone has pointed out before 'the corset is an optical illusion' is correct too.
If you were well enough educated in interpreting art you would understand that your OPINION is YOUR reaction to the work of art not everyone else's.
So stop patronising others about their views, and maybe take a reflection onto why you have your own?
Oh and your condescending language doesn't make you appear more educated in art. It just makes you look like a twat.
– We'll take that as an educated guess, maybe? 😉
These are perfectly executed pieces of work, the mua has amazing talent! The photographer is fantastic too how they haven't over-done or under-done the 2d effect to the images! – A real inspiration
I think your all rasist and shood get a life
In Russian culture, they often use the color black as the "every person" color when cartooning abstractions of people. Thus, with the source of this art being Russian artists, your interpretation is very likely nowhere near what was intended by the artists.
In addition, the rude manner in which you tell everyone else they're wrong only makes *you* look as ignorant as you're accusing them of being.
This thread, and the reactions you received might be a good wake up call to take a look inside yourself, as well as at the culture you are surrounded by, to consider why you reached that interpretation to begin with. You're right, art is intended to make you think, so take this as a chance to think about yourself given the reactions you've received.
Alternatively, if this actually was a Troll, I have to say well played. You did an effective job of summoning a mob.
Any kind of art can be taken for face value or dissected into bits. Ultimately, I think that what will cause either interpretation would depend on the individuals current interest in the art genre, how intellectually stimulating based on interests or fascination the art may cause that individual and of coarse the current emotional and mental state of the person. If you connect with what your seeing, you will most likely read into more than if you don't. Also, I personally enjoy looking at art work and dreaming up a million possible interpretations. My partner on the other hand is extremely intelligent and so logical in his thinking that most often he will interpret an art piece in a "non dissecting the crap out of it way" and it will make just as much sense and is just as fascinating. Looking at all the different ways people see things is the journey of learning and finding true wisdom.
Sometimes a cigar is just a cigar…
Or it looks like a corset? May be that your mind is the one making horrible subconscious assumptions.
You lost me when you said "Retouching." So in other words, this is Photoshop….
It conveyed a corset to me. Don't know where you got that one from.

Mexico's Biggest Stumbling Block: A Leader Who Doesn't LeadGeri Smith
Is Mexico headed for another meltdown? Certainly, confidence in President Ernesto Zedillo Ponce de Leon's economic management is in free fall. The latest blow to presidential credibility was the 1996 budget, announced on Nov. 13. It assumes a peso averaging 7.7 to the dollar, 20% inflation, and 3% economic growth. All are now considered unrealistic goals, following the peso's recent 15% plunge to nearly 8 to the dollar.
The markets were not impressed. After the announcement, the government intervened to shore up the peso, which is heading for 9.5, Goldman, Sachs & Co. predicts. Because of the jitters, the government is forced to pay nearly 60% for 28-day bills--nearly double the rate of six weeks ago. "They overpromise and then underdeliver," complains Mitchell E. Sahn, managing partner at Latin Tactical Trading Group in New York.
LOW PROFILE. Until recently, Mexicans were remarkably patient with the career technocrat who was unexpectedly thrust into the presidency after the assassination of the ruling Institutional Revolutionary Party's first candidate, Luis Donaldo Colosio. But now, Mexicans are wondering if Zedillo is ever going to get the hang of his job. That's why the markets gave some credence to rumors of a military coup in early November--even though the Mexican armed forces' tradition of staying out of politics makes such an event extremely unlikely.
Zedillo suffers from two basic weaknesses: a woeful inability to sell his programs and an apparent unwillingness to exercise Mexico's strong presidential powers. Since the crisis erupted last December, he has largely shut himself in the presidential residence. When he meets with delegations of businesspeople and foreign diplomats at the palace, he presents convincing arguments for his policy decisions. But most Mexicans don't see that side of him.
Zedillo's advisers argue that he is purposely keeping a low profile as his contribution to a redistribution of political power. But his reticence has cost him credit for real achievements. His administration has met the major requirements of the $50 billion international bailout led by the U.S.--a balanced budget, strict limits on monetary growth, and draconian fiscal constraints. He managed to negotiate a pact with business and labor, agreeing on moderate wage increases and goals for inflation and growth in 1996. And he submitted to Mexico's Congress a proposal for sweeping pension-fund reform that could give a big boost to the nation's savings rate.
None of this has calmed the markets, which "are not being guided by the economic fundamentals but by a lack of leadership and long-term economic strategy," says Denise Dresser, a political scientist at Mexico's Autonomous Technological Institute.
That absence of leadership is feeding the rumor mill. One rumor predicts the appointment of an "economic czar" to boost the government's credibility. Candidates mentioned include former Finance Secretary Pedro Aspe Armella and Jesus Silva Herzog, Mexico's politically savvy ambassador in Washington. A former PRI secretary-general proposed that if the peso hits 10 to the dollar, Zedillo should make way for a "government of national salvation."
But the most likely scenario is that Zedillo will continue to preside over an economic mess. Bad loans are rising, inflation is higher than expected, and the recession is turning out to be far deeper than most economists forecast. The government now admits that with the rise in interest rates, efforts to bail out the banks and consumers will cost $11 billion, or 5.1% of the GDP, much more than originally predicted. Zedillo's performance threatens to drag the whole country down.

How nice was the weather on the weekend???
So beautiful, perfect to hang out with friends at the Fifties Fair.
And eat fairy floss.
And pose with your hot friends in front of their hot car.
Only minimal sunburn too (thank goodness for the umbrella). Dress came out really well, and i'd definately use the pattern again. I'll have to get the Cowboi to take a better photo.
Fair Day Haul included new (vintage) white gloves, new pink vintage-style glasses, red chiffon scarf and the best diamante 50's brooch.
Still hunting for some vintage dotty scarves and a nice pair of vintage cats eye glasses - the prices at the Fair were crazy ($130? really?).
What did get to me is the stall holders and price gouging. Selling a 70's brown vest (missing a button and stained) for $75 - wha? Just because its the Fifties Fair doesnt mean people are going to pay whatever you ask. There is too much competition to be selling things at those prices. I've seen the prices get higher and higher every year, and while the quality is getting better too there are definitley sellers who bank on people not knowing what things are worth.
Kudos to the stall holder selling cute vintage hats for between $20 and $70. You made it worthwhile to come! (too bad none of your hats suited me, but I had fun trying them all on hehe).

Very solid 05/16/2007
This review is from: AMD Athlon 64 X2 3600+ Brisbane Dual-Core 1.9 GHz Socket AM2 ADO3600IAA5DL Processor
Decent OC - got it stable to 2.4 GHz (can't go higher, don't know if due to CPU or MB, probably MB) @ stock voltage (higher voltage didn't seem to help). Very capable, runs pretty cool with Freezer Pro 64/Arctic Silver 5 - about 32-40 C non-load/load, faster than my C2D loading Windows and startup apps, MUCH faster than Athlon 64 4000+ it replaced, overall VERY capable and a GREAT value for the price.
Not as fast as my C2D running games and high end apps, OC not nearly as good as C2D although some others have had better success w/ a better MB than mine.
Other Thoughts:
Make sure you go to AMD and install updates or you won't be able to play games. Remember this is a relatively new core - make sure your MB supports it, inherently or with bios update. Also, if you want good OC get a good MB.

Hot Potato Cafe, whose slogan was "Where Philly Comes to Eat Potatoes!," was best known for being featured on Gordon Ramsey's show, Kitchen Nightmares, in January 2009, only to shut their doors less than two years later.
A liquor license application was spotted their old space this week at 529 E. Girard Ave, made out to Deuces Place Inc. Finding out information on the new owners is proving a little tricky, but we're fairly confident that the new concept will bear no relation to Deuces Bar at 201 W Westmoreland St. in North Philly.
Mike Stollenwerk, who arrived on the local scene in 2007 when he took over Little Fish, has been moving at a frenetic pace recently, opening Fish and Fathom Seafood House in the past two years, and apparently opening a larger Fish in the near future. He has another project coming down the pike, and this time he'll be making his magic happen in Brewerytown. The new space at 2617-19 W Girard Ave. is gigantic- you could probably fit five Little Fishes in the first floor of the building. Stollenwerk will be executing two concepts here- one side will be a sit-down BYOB, and the other side will be a take-out prepared foods market. If this sounds a little high-end for Brewerytown, it's because it is. There's nothing like it in the neighborhood, but Stollenwerk is betting that it's going to work.
He's getting nothing but encouragement from the developers of the property, MM Partners, who have been extremely active redeveloping properties in Brewerytown over the past several years. Most of their past projects have similarly been rehabs of buildings on Girard Ave., but they've more recently begun working on individual new construction houses as well as larger-scale modular development, like the upcoming North 28.

A huge number of women have always yearned for fit and flat stomachs for an endless variety of reasons. Aesthetically, people that have flat stomachs look better than those who don't. They can dress easier, not needing to conceal or camouflage their 'flabby' truth. Health wise, on the other hand, recent studies show that bigger stomachs have been linked to various ailments and complications such as heart disease, asthma and even cancer.
In reality however, finding the motivation and initiative to exercise is challenging. A lot of factors kick in – too lazy to dress and go to the gym, no budget for expensive fitness centers, hectic schedules – these are just a few of the common excuses that women give themselves. These are also the reasons that led to the creation of these simple lower abdominal workout exercises for women – exercises so simple you won't need complicated machines. You can even follow them in the comforts of your home.
Ab Crunches / Sit Ups
· Lie down on your back with both hands at the back of your neck. This will be your starting position.
· Fold your knees while keep your feet spread out on the floor. Make sure that both feet are parallel to your shoulder's width.
· Exhale, and then slowly raise you upper body (waist up) to reach your knees. This position is called a 'sit up'.
· Go back to the starting position slowly, inhaling on the way down.
· Repeat this for at least two sets of 20 sit ups.
Reverse Crunches
· Lie down on your back and place your hands either beside you or behind your head.
· Keep your body flat by straightening out your knees.
· Bend both knees to form a right angle. Make sure that your legs move as one the entire time.
· Exhale and slowly bring your knees close to your chest while lifting your hips.
· Inhale and slowly put your feet back on the floor.
· Repeat this for at least 10 times and gradually increase the count as your body gets used to the level of difficulty. Reverse crunches are one of the hardest yet most effective ab workouts.
· Lie down on your back with your legs straight on the floor.
· Place both of your hands at the back of your neck for support. Both elbows must be pointed outwards. This will be your starting position.
· Exhale and lift your left shoulder and your right knee. Move your shoulder towards the direction of the knee, making them touch.
· Inhale and slowly go back into the starting position.
· Repeat the process, this time with your right shoulder and your left knee.
· Repeat this for at least 20 more times. (10 per side)
· (Note: A more challenging version of this exercise is to lift the entire upper body while stretching one arm. The idea is for the left hand to touch the right toe alternately.)
Whatever your reason is for exercising, it is important for you to remember that the results you want to achieve won't happen overnight. Discipline and consistency are key to getting that flat stomach you have always wanted.

Pea Puffer
So, I have been planning to get a pea puffer for my 10 gallon with plants, (swords, java fern, crypts) and I noticed that my LFS has them in brackish water, (1.005). I have known pea puffers to be specifically freshwater, and when I asked about it, they said that theirs are not freshwater, and that there are some from india that are freshwater. I am so confused. Is there a breed of Pea Puffer (aka Dwarf Puffer) that is specifically brackish? I don't understand how they would have a brackish specific pea puffer, unless they cultivated it themselves. I can't go putting plants in brackish water ): So, is this all BS or what?
You are correct. They are freshwater only. Acclimate them very slowly if you get them. Are you 100% sure they're pea puffers?
They are definitely pea puffers. Only about the size of half of my pinky nail. They sell spotted puffers as well, and those are roughly the size of a quarter. I just don't even know why they believe their puffers are different than the dwarf/pea puffers the rest of the world knows. :mad:
Uh, this is simple. If you know the species can survive the freshwater, then convert it from the brackish and use lots of time to do so.
Uh, yeah that wasn't my problem, I was trying to figure out if my LFS was off their rocker.
I went back to ask another employee, the owner knows they are freshwater he just hasn't acclimated them back because he buys them from someone who keeps them in brackish water. So my LFS isn't stupid! Yay.
You will be putting any new stock in a quarantine tank, so ask at the store for the exact water parameters and set up the quarantine tank just like that. Then, while they are in quarantine gradually shift the water away from brackish.

The picture above is of Kweku Adoboli, the 31-year-old accused of costing Swiss banking giant UBS $2 billion in rogue trading, an amount which could tip the bank into third quarter losses. The image is taken from Facebook, where Adoboli had a personal profile, expressing music tastes, showing photographs and showcasing his 420 friends, until the account was deleted on Thursday morning as the news spread of the charges against him. But not before many had seen his profile, with media outlets look to make contact with the friends listed and attempting to interpret his status posts.
UBS made the announcement on Thursday morning:
UBS has discovered a loss due to unauthorized trading by a trader in its Investment Bank. The matter is still being investigated, but UBS's current estimate of the loss on the trades is in the range of USD 2 billion. It is possible that this could lead UBS to report a loss for the third quarter of 2011. No client positions were affected.

When it emerged that London police had arrested Kweku Adoboli in connection with the UBS trading charges, many went looking for his online presence, and found it quickly on Facebook and LinkedIn. This blogger captured an image of Adoboli's Facebook page, which was deleted soon afterwards:

By that time, media outlets had already begun to scour through his 420 friends, a number that began diminishing over the course of the morning:

Financial Times reporters Rose Jacobs, Alistair Gray, William Wallis and Alice Ross gleaned a number of details about Adoboli from his Facebook page while it was still active:
According to entries on Facebook, Kweku Adoboli, a 31-year-old computer science graduate described as an "up and coming" trader by colleagues, had been following the recent market turmoil closely.
On July 31 he posted: "Will they? Won't they? Reduced to watching Fox News for guidance, it's a grim affair."
That was followed a week later amid steep market falls, by an entry that read: "Can we shut down global markets for a week so everyone can just chill out?" . . .
Following news of his arrest friends of Mr Adoboli's left messages on his Facebook page.
One post said: "You are a genuinely good person, honest and humble. You don't deserve this… You will get through it."
Another said: "It's unimaginable to me these allegations are true. I'm praying for you my friend."

And while a Twitter account in Adoboli's name appears to have been hacked, he has built up a different kind of profile on the social network since the news broke and the hashtag #roguetrader began to trend:

HammerSky made just 137 cases of this Paso Robles cabernet, and that's a shame. It's a fruit-forward wine, one with lots of character but one which is still easy to drink. Made with 79% cabernet sauvignon, 16% merlot, and 5% cabernet franc, it's a deeply purple wine, fat with blueberry character, herbal notes, and a moderate tannin backbone. The finish is jammy, with a green olive tinge to it. Quite nice.

Pay it Forward: Cloverdale firefighters get medical gear
Gift of $500 will fund blood glucose readers, other devices
CLOVERDALE, Ore - The Cloverdale Fire District's been busy all weekend, working on the Sunnyside Turnoff fire near Warm Springs.
They've also been called to big fires out of their district, like the church fire in downtown Bend back in March. But a majority of the time they are actually helping the community with medical calls -- one volunteer at a time.
"We have to have volunteers. Our tax rate is the lowest in Central Oregon and there's no way we could possibly pay a firefighter, let alone 19 that could respond at a moment's notice to take care of an emergency," said Clinton Weaver, president of the Cloverdale Volunteer Firefighters Association.
In the past few years, the volunteers have raised nearly $10,000 for outdated equipment.
Now, the department needs new blood glucose meters to determine a patient's blood sugar level and devices to show a patient's pulse rate while an ambulance is on the way.
The new meters cost about $100 apiece and will save the crew time --potential life-saving seconds.
"You can get a lot done in that 30-40 seconds," Weaver said. "These monitors are going to help us get even more done in that time period."
That's why the Volunteer Association is this month's Pay it Forward winner and on behalf of Mid Oregon Credit Union, Co-Energy Propane and NewsChannel 21, we surprised the fire chief with $500.
"This is a huge deal for us, and it's a great benefit to our community. And without the volunteers, we would be paralyzed," said Fire Chief Thad Olsen.
Olsen and Weaver say their success depends on the volunteers who do it all for the love of the job -- paying it forward to the community.
"Virtually all of us live in this district," Weaver said. "We are helping out our neighbors and our friends. And this $500 is going to help us do that even better."
The district is always looking for volunteers. If you are interested, call 541-548-4815 or visit cloverdalefire.com

|Cooperative mechanism for the diffusion of Li+ ions in LiMgSO4F
|Mathieu Salanne, Dario Marrocchelli, and Graeme W. Watson, 2012
|Extensive molecular dynamics simulations are performed on tavorite-structured LiMgSO4F, in order to analyze the diffusion mechanism of the Li+ ions. In a first step, an interaction potential, including polarization effects, is parametrized from density functional theory calculations. This is then tested by reproducing experimental properties of the material, such as structural parameters (lattice constants and interatomic distances) and ionic conductivity to a high degree of accuracy. Next, the conduction mechanism is studied: the diffusion of the Li+ ions occurs via correlated hops inside diffusion channels, which reflects in the much larger values calculated for their collective diffusion coefficient compared to the individual ones (by 1 order of magnitude on average). The consequences (both scientific and technical) of this finding are discussed.

Arsenal back in training - Picture special
Many of Arsenal's first-team players are back in training at London Colney.
The 2011/12 campaign edged a little closer on Tuesday morning as Arsene Wenger's squad shook off the summer cobwebs and returned to the training pitches.
New signing Carl Jenkinson took part in his first session while young prospects like Ryo Miyaichi also limbered up with more established stars.
Some players have yet to return following international commitments at the start of June but our official Club photographer was at Colney to capture the rest of the squad in action.

The other day I was playing with my cats, simultaneously torturing them and delighting them with this flexible thin rod that had feathers and a bell at the end. I would run it along the ground, simulating a mouse, or just bob it up and down in front of their noses. These usually sedentary cats loved the entertaining movement. They'd chase after the bell and feathered end, or lie down and try to grab it with their paws as I dipped it in front of their nose.
I then realized that we humans also have a love affair with movement. But in our case it's the feathers and bell that is attached to each thought — to each movement of the mind. That's all that thought fundamentally is: movement of the mind. The subconscious gossip that runs just below our awareness is minor movement, recognizable thought is intermediate movement, and full blown emotions are major movement. But in essence, it's all just movement.
This approach to thought is helpful, because it helps us relate to any thought or emotion that arises in meditation, and that we then label as "thinking," as just the movement of the mind. Don't do this (stay true to the label of "thinking"), but instead of saying "thinking" to whatever distracts you, you could say "movement." So just like my cats, and so many other creatures that depend on movement for their very existence (if you can't detect the movement of an animal, you can't locate it and eat it), my ego depends on movement for its existence.
My ego, just like my cats, likes to be entertained — and even fed — by movement. This, of course, is why the absence of movement, or sitting meditation, can be so hard for the ego. When the movement of bells and feathers isn't there, when thoughts and emotions aren't moving about, life for the ego gets very boring. So to keep things moving, and to keep ego alive and entertained, ego keeps popping up thoughts. And I keep chasing after them . . . just like my cat. On some fundamental level, I'm not that different from my cat.

Michael Essien tips Ghana to reach World Cup semi-finals
Ghana midfielder Michael Essien believes a historic World Cup semi-final feat is achievable in Brazil this summer.
The Black Stars face a tough challenge after being Group alongside USA, Germany and Portugal.
Essien, who missed Ghana's quarter-final berth at the last tournament in South Africa, due to injury is available to make his second World Cup appearance.
The AC Milan new signing believes the current crop of players are capable of going far in the tournament.
"Our initial aim will be to get out of the group into the second round and then take it from there, game by game,†Essien told SuperSport.com
"Who knows we will go one better and make it to the semi finals or even finals. Any thing can happen but we are realistic enough to know we cannot aim that high from the start.
''Get the first objective of making the second round out of the way and we will see how far we can go. It will be a journey without a doubt and one we are looking forward to.â€

21guns says:February 26, 2014 11:52 amThe legend have spoken, Ghana will be the only country that can make the impossible if the players make their mind to score more goals just as what happened to the egypyians.
jibrin Mohammed Muntaka says:February 26, 2014 06:48 amWell said,Michael.That attitude alone Will not take us to the promised land.Action speaks louder than words.Do your best n leave the rest
Tanko says:February 26, 2014 09:14 amRealistically, Ghana should work on our defence! With the midfielders in stock at the moment, we can turn every stone on our way. Our attackers are incredible.Semifinals is achievsble.
