This is a discussion on NJimprezaClub(Pls Read...& Join) within the Tri-State forums, part of the Regional Discussion category; I'm down for this! sjgwrx at yahoo dot com...
To those of you posting your e-mail address here, be prepared for spam. Not from Clubwrx.net or NjImpreza club, but from e-mail harvesters. Once you place your e-mail address on a forum, you pretty much can expect to have spam sent to you. You may want to spell out your e-mail address like this "name at yahoo dot com."
P.S. I hope this proposed club intends to have meets in Central, North, and South Jersey.

what's happening with this? i haven't heard anything.
Guys please have patience on the present situation. I didn't expect so many people are interested on joining the club. At first I was overwhelmed but that later turned into excitement.
As of now, I'm finishing up the logo and as soon as I'm done with that I will definitely set up a meet somewhere in the middle part of NJ so "Imprezers" from the North Jersey & South Jersey doesn't have to drive too far for the first meet.
Guys/ladies, if you have any questions at all please call me at (908) 220-3692.

let me know what is up
we need our first meeting soon its getting freaking cold hurry up mark
I'm gonna play devil's advocate here:
There are a bunch of Subaru & mainly Impreza & WRX people who meet almost every Wednesday night. They're also the ones who organized the annual tri-state meet... but most of them post on NASIOC.com, and not on this board, and I can kinda see why... I mean the regional forum over on NASIOC gets about 3x the traffic as this forum... it just seems like the people over there are more into meets, etc...
So I guess what I'm saying is, if you want to start a legit NJ club, the best place to grow it would be over at NASIOC. ClubWRX is nice and all, but the regional forum is dead by comparison.

I'll be there @ 8PM sharp.
Any questions, please email me @ firstname.lastname@example.com or call me at (908)220-3692.

See ya on the Parkway
hey wussup mark well I dont think grease trucks would be a good idea men coz we all know that most of our cars our low and the ramp going to the grease trucks and the exit ramp especially is really high I dont think anyone one would like to risk breaking their lips or something.
O.k. I didn't really think that our cars wouldn't clear the driveway of the grease truck parking lot.
Here's the solution, instead of goin' to the grease trucks I'm setting up the meet @ Applbee's in Edison @ 8pm sharp.
Any questions, please give me a call.

Police have jumped on the social networking bandwagon to gather intelligence from local communities and help catch criminals.
Queenstown and Manurewa police are using Facebook to upload closed circuit television (CCTV) photographs and videos of criminals in action.
The Queenstown police page, set up by intelligence analyst Constable Sean Drader in December 2008, has nearly 1600 fans who have correctly identified one or two alleged offenders each month.
"We were getting loads of CCTV video footage we couldn't do anything with," Mr Drader told police magazine Ten One.
"Using stills you often can't recognise people, but with moving images you get a lot more information."
Mr Drader said "two or three" other police forces worldwide used Facebook for recruitment and community policing messages.
"No one was specifically using Facebook to catch criminals, which I thought would be an ideal use for it," he said.
One video of a shoplifter was online for just 34 minutes before the offender was identified, he said.
As the owner of the Facebook page, Mr Drader is able to access statistics including who is looking at the page and what they are interested in.
"Police need to recognise Facebook as an important investigative tool - we need to embrace it and use it more widely."
The page is updated once or twice a week, but is checked daily for offensive comments or images.
Manurewa intelligence unit Sergeant David Brooke said a Manurewa police page was set up in February last year.
"Everyone is on the internet these days, and people communicate through Facebook and Twitter," he said.
"We are always looking for new ways for the public to comfortably share information. Facebook seemed the perfect way to reach people who don't interact with police in any other way."
Manurewa has nearly 800 fans, with four officers checking the page every weekday.
Mr Brooke said while the page was about solving crime, he would like to develop it further with a focus on community policing.
"We've received a number of positive comments about the page, via both posts on the page itself and phone calls to the office," he said.
Police National Headquarters acting editorial and publishing manager Rob Lee said a national Using Social Media Sites policy was being finalised.

Both of my little Yorkies love to pull the tail on these mice, but after a year or so they get the stuffing coming out as they pull the tail, so they have to be replaced. I try to keep some on hand, in case they stop making them, like they did the battery-operated hard-plastic mouse that moved and made noise.

Air Head Installation in Southern Cross 31
Here is a link to my webpage that includes a pdf describing my experience with installation of an Air Head on my Southern Cross 31:
Bill Norfleet's Page
Hope this helps.
Here is an account of my experience with a new Air Head during a trip this summer:
The device was used continuously for 35 days, plus 6 days intermittently in the month prior to the trip, by a 160-pound man and a 110-pound woman. The voyage was to Nova Scotia (cool and damp weather). The device worked well. The problems with the unit we encountered were minor, particularly in comparison to the release of quarts of raw sewage that sometimes happens with a conventional system. The Air Head represents a real paradigm shift in marine sanitation devices. Its simplicity and reliability eliminated a number of potential nightmares from the list of things one worries about on a long trip. Its installation also freed up two complete lockers (one locker that contained the conventional head's holding tank and flush water thru-hull, and an additional locker that contained the Y-valve, overboard dump pump, and a web of associated sanitation hose and fittings). And in the future I plan to remove at least one now-unnecessary thru-hull. This is a great product.
To get specific, we encountered two problems:
1. Spring clip failure: The trap door is held fully open or fully closed by what might be called a spring-powered over-center mechanism. The spring is held in place on one end by a screw and on the other end by a clip that is inserted through an actuating rod. This clip fell out, releasing the spring. I retrieved the clip (yuch!) and reinstalled it (hopefully correctly), finishing up by bending the clip cotter-pin-style to retain it. Perhaps a step like this was missed during assembly, or perhaps a different type of clip such as a true cotter pin or a cotter ring is called for.
2. Sewage leak: On the very last day of the trip about a quarter cup of dilute sewage leaked through the bushing for the stirring mechanism on the end of the mechanism opposite the crank handle (the handle is on the right side of my unit when the unit is viewed from the front). We noticed the leak first thing in the morning. We cranked the stirring mechanism a few turns, cleaned up the mess, and experienced no further leakage. The cause of this failure was probably operator error:
- Failure to empty the unit after 60 person-days of use (e.g., 30 days of use by a couple) as called for in the instructions. We pushed the unit to see what happens when it is overstuffed (a total of 82 person-days of use), and we found out. The unit should be emptied "by the clock" as specified in the instructions.
- Failure to use coffee filters during continuous use as specified in the instructions. The instructions don't really say why filters should be used in such operation. However, they seem to serve the same absorptive purpose as peat, and perhaps they compartmentalize the mass, permitting better aeration and drying.
- Failure to add additional peat. The biomass had the consistency of bread dough. It was not crumbly, but it was also not sufficiently liquid that it flowed by gravity. Apparently, this consistency is too dilute, and peat should have been added to make it crumbly. However, additional peat might not have been necessary if coffee filters had been used.
Sundry thoughts:
The thumbscrews in the urine container bracket (the thumbscrews that must be undone to remove the urine jug) desperately want to cross-thread when reinstalling the jug. My wife and I have kicked around ideas for a design improvement. Perhaps the simplest is the best: The current configuration of the bracket is such that it is in an unstressed, relaxed state when the jug is installed and the thumbscrews are seated. By necessity, therefore, the bracket must be deformed to get the jug in place and start the thumbscrews, and the bracket fights the operator during this maneuver. The bracket could be modified such that its unstressed configuration results in the thumbscrews just barely clearing the jug, all lined up for threading. Judicious use of vice grips on the current unit might accomplish the same purpose, but I have not yet been moved to try that.
The urine container should be emptied on a daily basis. After 24 hours of use by a non-beer-swilling couple it is not quite half full. Dealing with it when filled to that extent is infinitely easier than when it is overflowing (voice of experience here) or even 3/4 full.
I can't help but consider the implications from public health and regulatory points of view of dumping urine. Composting heads seem to be something of a regulatory step-child - regulations for neither conventional heads nor porta-potties are really appropriate (witness Ontario's regulations). So what is the real public health and environmental impact of dumping urine? It is true that fresh, unadulterated urine is primarily a chemical entity (a solution of salts), not a biohazard. However, in the Air Head, some slight fecal contamination of the urine is inevitable. Without looking into the matter deeply, perhaps this is a potential solution: Each time the urine jug is installed, a small, specified amount of bleach or one of those 1-inch diameter tablets that are used for purification of dish water at camp sites could be added. Such treatment would seem to eliminate the reasonable possibility of human pathogens surviving during storage, while not rendering the solution unfit for release into the marine environment. Or perhaps such an intervention is not necessary, at least in a marine environment, because trace quantities of naked pathogens can't survive long enough to threaten anybody or anything. I wonder.

Holla Pointe lets 'er rip clean out of the socket
Roots electric harmonica-guitar duo goes extreme
Dave Good 7 p.m., May 24
San Diego State University's College of Extended Studies has announced it will be offering a revamped professional certificate program this year – for the "Business of Wine."
"People who study wine should first and foremost have a passion for it," says Lisa Redwine, who will teach two courses during the upcoming semester. "There's a difference between a passion for drinking wine and a passion for studying wine, because they're very different."
The first course, "Exploring Wine," will include studies on the history of wine and winemaking, differences in grape varietals, viticulture, and wine language, along with tastings and guest speaker appearances. Additional upcoming courses listed are Wine Making Behind the Scenes, Influence of Terrior Intensive, and California Intensive.
According to SDSU's College of Extended Studies, certificate programs are "typically more relevant and focused for today's workforce than academic degrees and can be completed in a much shorter period of time." The wine program specifically targets those working in or attempting to gain employment in the expanding wine industry in San Diego and southern Riverside counties.
"All of the classes expanded my knowledge of wine and helped me get to where I am now," said Eddie Zavestoski, a student of an earlier incarnation of the program. He now works in a tasting room in Oregon's Willamette Valley.
Gerry Warner: Life is too short to have to suffer bad wine. A few experts would help.
Bud E. Hamberg: I'll drink to that!
Jack Sullivan: Everything is so specialized these days they'll probably add pizza tasting and cigar smoking.

SAP Turns To Acquisitions For Cloud Innovations
Just three months after SAP acquired SuccessFactors, a cloud leader for human capital management solutions, for $3.4 billion, it has now announced the acquisition of Ariba, a cloud leader for eProcurement solutions, for another $4.3 billion. Now, $7.7 billion is a lot of money to spend in a short amount of time on two companies that hardly make any profit. But it's all for the cloud, which means it's for the future business opportunity in cloud computing services. So far, so good; SAP has invested and acquired quite a number of cloud companies over the past years: Frictionless, Clear Standards, Crossgate, etc. The difference in this most recent acquisition is the big overlap with existing solutions and internal R&D.
Following the first wave of cloud acquisitions, SAP was sitting amid a zoo of cloud solutions, all based on different platforms: ePurchasing, CRM-OnDemand, BI-OnDemand, Carbon Impact, ByDesign, Streamwork . . . They all used very different technology, resulting in big integration and scale challenges behind the scenes. The market welcomed with open arms SAP's announcement 1.5 years ago that it would consolidate its cloud strategy on the new NetWeaver platform for both ABAP- and Java-based cloud solutions.
Posted by Andrew Bartels on May 23, 2012
The big news in the ePurchasing software market yesterday was SAP's acquisition of Ariba. This blockbuster deal will extend SAP's position as the largest software vendor in the ePurchasing market. It also brings into the SAP fold one of the most innovative companies in this market – a company that has a fair claim to having begun the whole market in the late 1990s.
Still, as my title suggests, I'm not convinced that this acquisition makes strategic sense. I think there's a real risk that this turns out to be a deal where one plus one equals 1.75, not two, let alone a multiple of two. Reason one: the tremendous duplication of products between the two firms, and thus the problems of product rationalization and internal competition. Reason two: the Ariba Network, which is the main rationale for the acquisition, is based on an idiosyncratic pricing model that in my view is unsustainable at current rates and thus will not generate the kinds of revenues that SAP is expecting.
Let me first state the case for why this could be a good deal:
Posted by Liz Herbert on May 21, 2012
At SAP SAPPHIRE (SAP's biggest user conference, May 14–16), SAP announced that it has deployed more than 1,400 instances of Rapid Deployment Solutions (RDS) at more than 1,000 unique customers. These solutions help customers deploy SAP modules in as short as a few weeks at a reduced price point by productizing typical configurations. SAP boasts cost savings typically in the 20% to 40% range versus similar deployments that do not utilize RDS.
SAP has more than 70 of these solutions currently available. Additional solutions are available through partners like Accenture and TCS. RDS solutions are available in a wide range of areas like CRM, Sourcing, Financials, and even SAP HANA.
SAP positions these solutions as "lego-like," meaning that customers can build one on top of the other and can customize and extend as much or as little as they want.
Our take? These RDS solutions are a great way for companies to quickly realize value out of SAP, an issue which has long plagued the SAP community. Even clients who need to go far beyond what an RDS offers and create a much more customized deployment might be able to jump-start their project with an RDS. However, these offerings are not available in all horizontal or vertical areas. SAP customers who want a complete solution heavily tailored for their industry-specific needs will likely need to turn to SAP's ecosystem of pre-built solutions, rather than lighter-weight RDS offerings.

Are you using RDS solutions? Considering them? We would love to hear your thoughts!

The Lodge at Tiburon
Gone Coastal in Marin County
92% recommendedin LivingSocial customer ratings
A smallish town in Marin County, Tiburon is situated at the tip of a peninsula stretching out into the San Francisco Bay, where the views are nothing short of amazing. A popular day jaunt for SF denizens via a 20-minute ferry ride, "Tiburon is slightly more low-key than Sausalito, and the community favors Sunday brunch and cocktail hour," Fodor's says.
On three acres just off Main Street, The Lodge at Tiburon's recent renovation makes the destination even more appealing (if that's possible). Taking a cue from its location just steps from the Bay, rooms have an airy, California vibe with plantation shutters, neutral colors, and wainscot headboards—most have balconies or patios. Complimentary wireless Internet access, mini fridges, DVD players (a selection of movies can be found at the front desk), and Gilchrist & Soames bath products round out the in-room amenities, while cabanas surround the property's heated pool and whirlpool. On chilly evenings, guests gather by a fire on the Skydeck.
For more extensive vistas, hike the Ridge Trail or head to Muir Woods, an awe-inspiring redwood forest. Cyclists can take the three-mile paved Tiburon Bike Path to Blackie's Pasture Park, while window shoppers can browse the boutiques and art galleries on Ark Row.
Back at the hotel, the Tiburon Tavern focuses on comfort farm-to-table fare in an atmosphere with a "chic gastropub vibe." Three WineStations dispensing about 20 local and foreign wines and an included card pre-loaded with $20 make it easy to taste a variety of vino. On the menu, shared plates include deviled eggs (organic and local, of course) with house-made chorizo and lamb sliders topped with goat cheddar and harissa yogurt, while the Head to Tail Burger and seared halibut hold court with sides like sweet potato fries and grilled squash with roasted jalapeño salsa verde. And it's not just the dinner dishes that include the name of a local purveyor in the description: In the morning, steel-cut oatmeal and Belgian waffles are topped with seasonal fruit, eggs come from a Sonoma County farm, and the granola is homemade.

CONTACT: Jeff Foley (518) 629-8085 or (518) 373-1262
FOR RELEASE: Immediate, Saturday, November 11, 2000
Saranac Lake, November 11 - Men's head basketball coach Vince Medici notched his 100th career win this afternoon, leading Hudson Valley Community College to a 70-56 non-conference win against North Country Community College. The win is Hudson Valley's third without a loss this season.
"The best part of this is that the kids who have gotten the 100 wins have all graduated," Medici said. "We've gotten kids here who have had goals in life. They come to Hudson Valley, want to play basketball for two years and graduate. These are the kind of kids that are getting the wins for us."
Medici has captured 100 victories in just five years and three games. During the last two seasons he won a total of 48 games. Now in his sixth season, Medici has compiled a lifetime .667 winning percentage.
"Coaching is a year-round thing," Medici said. "Basketball is not just from October to March. And I've been very fortunate to have two great assistants – Rich Gilooly and Don Juron – who contribute a ton. They've been with me for 51 of those wins, putting in some long, hard hours."
Medici, a Malta resident who also teaches physical education at Greenwich Elementary School, has twice been named Mountain Valley Conference Coach of the Year. He led Hudson Valley to the National Junior College Athletic Association (NJCAA) Division III championship tournament in 1998-99, placing the Vikings among the top eight teams in the nation. In 1999-00, Hudson Valley earned a top-10 ranking, won the Mountain Valley Conference and advanced to the NJCAA Division III Region III title game.
"I've heard people question the talent we have in the Capital Region," Medici said. "A majority of our players come from Section II schools. I think Hudson Valley has proven that local kids can win championships."
Second-year guard Kerey Johnson (Schenectady) secured today's victory for Medici, scoring a game-high 20 points against North Country. Kurt Bush (Newcomb-Minerva) contributed 14 points and Kyle Miller (Columbia) had 10 points.
Hudson Valley is now 3-0. The loss dropped North Country to 2-4.
"Naturally, I'd love to get another 100 wins," said Medici with a smile. "But I'd be happy to get just one with a national championship attached to it."

text: Not an issue here in Orange County either, but I suspect our equipment is totally different. Sometimes, if you are tuned to an SDV channel and leave it there for a long time (like hours), the channel will time out, and then you need to retune it. I think that's actually how SDV is supposed to work to free up the bandwidth, although it's a bit clunky. But I've never had to reboot for it to work again.

For Halloween, the CORAL Lab's CoBot2 robot donned a pumpkin costume to deliver candy bars to 300 delighted denizens of floors 6-8 of the Gates and Hillman centers, stopping at open doors and saying "Knock knock" outside closed doors.
For CoBot, which has been running errands for people in the GHC for more than a month, assuming the role of Great PumpkinBot represented a new technical challenge, said Manuela Veloso, professor of computer science.
As ever, CoBot negotiated the hallways and elevators autonomously, asking people for assistance when it recognized it needed help. This "symbiotic autonomy," theconcept of robots collaborating with humans to accomplish tasks, is a majoradvance, Veloso said. In Halloween mode, however, CoBot wasn't followingexplicit instructions— such as, deliver item A from here to there. Instead, ithad to figure out a delivery route, determine which doors were open and, as itmade repeat trips, remember which offices it had missed on previous trips.
CoBots 1 and 2 continue to be available for errands and other tasks, though Veloso cautions that the hours they are available are irregular. To sign up or to schedule a task, visit http://neontetra.coral.cs.cmu.edu/cobot. In the past year, the robots have logged about 80 autonomous miles as they have traversed the GHC corridors, Veloso said.

The place is empty, silent — it feels abandoned. It's all men's clothes, in a place where lifestyles go to die, or to be given new life. At the same time, it's the graveyard of our intentional-obsolescence, mass-produced American Dream. But, of course, all the clothing and furnishings are handmade by LeDray. Which turns it into a manifesto about the value of recycled materials and handcraft at a time when art and the world are ever more synthetic and manufactured.
LeDray began the installation in 2006, before the economy tanked, and he spent three years crafting it all. From the vantage point of our Great Recession, it feels like a going-out-of-business sale at the end of the world.
Read Greg Cook's blog at gregcookland.com/journal.
EDITOR'S NOTE: In a previous version of this story, Greg Cook incorrectly stated that Jen Mergel initiated the Charles LeDray exhibit. In fact, the idea for the survey was initially proposed by former ICA curator Nicholas Baume.

"PAAVO is the Finnish word for the first name of the famous Finnish runner, Paavo Nurmi. His attributes have become ours. The PAAVO PROCESS has grown out of our experiences through distance running.
The INDIVIDUAL WORK ETHIC toward a definite & desired goal is the basis of the philosophy.
Nurmi had distinctive characteristics which led to PAAVO METHODS. He was an Olympic Champion through hard work, including doing things others did not or would not do. He ran hard every day. He ran alone. He timed & measured every run & every race; all designed to be his very best in that one competitive moment.
The PAAVO SPIRIT is a competitive desire for results. It is a work ethic. It is intensity. The basics are the same in running, the classroom, the office, & all of the Real World. The PROCESS is about doing continual, consistent, & higher levels of completed work.
It is finding a way with what we have, in the time we have… to become better. It is THAT SIMPLE."— Marshall Sellers, Founder & Director, 43 years of Paavo Running Camps & Seminars

Better yet, flash RA-supersonic. But yes, if you've already unlocked your bootloader, root is only two steps away:
If you have done an HTC unlock... just flash clockworkmod, then flash the root zip thru clockworkmod.
- Flash a custom recovery (Amon_RA's recommended - all others are unreliable on the Supersonic)
- Flash Superuser
TacoRoot would be an alternative rooting method that would allow you to temp root and downgrade HBOOT to unlock your NAND with a previous method.

Bad boy Joey Barton has claimed Harry Redknapp will not be able to save crisis club QPR from relegation.
Barton confirmed his status as QPR's public enemy No.1 by also claiming the players have no team spirit and said he expected them to be in the Championship next season
QPR midfielder Barton, farmed out on a season-long loan to Marseille, also admitted he cannot go back to Loftus Road even though he has two years left on his £80,000-a-week contract.
Barton, in an interview with BBC's Football Focus, said: "What it seems to me as a neutral – and I am in France, no matter that I am contracted – is that they have got a big case of a lot of good individuals but not a good team.
"The likelihood is, unless there is a massive turnaround in fortunes, QPR will be in the Championship next season.
"What it seems to me as a neutral - and I am in France, no matter that I am contracted - is that they have got a big case of a lot of good individuals, a lot of good quality individuals, but not a good team."
Barton was shipped out to Marseille in disgrace after being hit with a 12-game ban after his red card on the final day of last season at Manchester City when Rangers retained their top flight status by the narrowest of margins.
Ex-Newcastle midfielder Barton added: "For me to be part of the side that stayed up and not be part of the side that went down, it would be difficult for me to go back.
"I haven't closed my mind to it although I would really like to stay here.
"I'm in a good space mentally. I've held preliminary talks with Marseille about extending my stay here. They have asked me whether I would stay beyond the loan period."
Barton moved to Marseille in August following his 12-match ban issued by the Football Association for two counts of violent conduct against Manchester City in the final match of last season.
"It didn't end in great circumstances in West London for me," said Barton.
"I know there has been a change in terms of the management structure, but something like that, and what goes on around that, lives with you beyond a managerial change."
Barton insists QPR's chances of escaping relegation have improved following the appointment of Redknapp, who oversees his first home game in charge against Aston Villa tomorrow.
"Harry Redknapp's record speaks for itself. This time last year he was being talked about as the only successor to (former England coach) Fabio Capello," he said.
"He has always done well with players and always got players on board. He is a really good man-manager.
"If anyone can pull the players together, a manager of Redknapp's calibre is capable of that. They are in with a good chance now with Harry there."

I've been reading a lot of John Wesley's Works recently. He had some harsh things to say about the over-consumption of his time:
"O ye that have riches in possession, once more hear the word of the Lord! Ye that are rich of this world, that have food to eat, and raiment to put on, and something over, are you clear of the curse of loving the world? Are you sensible of your danger? Do you feel, 'How hardly will they that have riches enter into the kingdom of heaven?' Do you continue unburned in the midst of fire? Are you untouched with love of the world? Are you clear from the desire of the flesh, the desire of the eyes, and the pride of life? Do you 'put a knife to your throat,' when you sit down to meat, lest your table should be a snare to you? Is not your belly your God? Is not eating and drinking, or any other pleasure of sense, the greatest pleasure you enjoy? Do not you seek happiness in dress, furniture, pictures, gardens, or anything else that pleases the eye? Do not you grow soft and delicate; unable to bear cold, heat, the wind or the rain, as you did when you were poor? Are you not increasing in goods, laying up treasures on earth; instead of restoring to God in the poor, no so much, or so much, but all that you can spare? Sure, 'it is easier for a camel to go through the eye of a needle, than for a rich man to enter into the kingdom of heaven!' . . .
"Was not another cause of it your despising that excellent help, union with a Christian society? Have you not read, 'How can one be warm alone?' and, 'Woe be unto him that is alone when he falleth?' But you have companions enough. Perhaps more than enough; more than are helpful to your soul. But have you enough that are athirst for God, and that labour to make you so? Have you companions enough that watch over your soul, as they must give account; and that freely and faithfully warn you, if you take any false step, or are in danger of doing so? I fear you have few of these companions, or else you would bring forth better fruit!" (from "On God's Vineyard," The Complete Works of John Wesley, Volume 7 pp. 212-13)

Preheat oven to 325 degrees.
Quarter three whole artichoke hearts; set aside.
Chop remaining artichoke hearts and mix with remaining ingredients, using electric mixer.
Divide mixture among 4 ovenproof dishes that are at least 1 inch deep and 5 inches wide. Using a spatula or rounded knife, smooth top of mixture, being careful not to get any on the sides as it will burn.
Set three reserved artichoke sections in the center of each dish for garnish.
Bake in preheated oven 35 to 40 minutes or until lightly browned on top. If desired, top with tomatoes. Serve with a small round loaf of whole-grain or herb bread.

My Ride: 330Ci clubsport
Door mirror issue (not the usual reverse question ;) )
Hi, I'm looking for some help with diagnosing a fault I have with my electric folding door mirrors on my 2004 33oci clubsport with electric memory seats and mirrors. The problems is as follows:
1. Both mirrors fail to move when using the adjustment switch.
2. Only the passenger door mirror operates when the car is put into reverse
(regardless of where the switch is positioned)
3. Only the passenger door mirror folds when the lock button is held down on
the key.
4. Only the passenger door mirror 'defrosts' when iced.
So far I know it's not the fuses, mirror adjust switch or a disconnected cable in the driver's door, or a loose connector from where the interface cable from the door connector to each of the components within the door.
The electric windows work fine, so I know some power is getting through the connector but I don't want to assume that means the mirror assembly/switch is getting the correct power. Can anybody advise if they take power from the same source or not?
I know that the airbag power/monitoring system seems to be ok as I now have the airbag light on after my tests so far
I'd be grateful if someone could shed some light on where the control module for the mirrors is hiding or any other possible cause I've not yet considered.
Many thanks

Tazwell, Virginia drug arrest has international ties
TAZWELL, Va. - Police in Tazewell, Virginia have made an arrest in a drug investigation spanning eight months and two continents.
The Tazewell Police Department said they arrested David Rudolph Taylor and charged him with possession with intent to distribute schedule I/II narcotics.
Lt. Jeffery White said they got a tip from the U.S. Department of Homeland Security earlier this week that a package had been seized in Alaska containing $12,000 worth of bath salts.
Police said the package was sent from China and addressed to Taylor.
Taylor was arrested at his home earlier this week
Tazewell police said they believe Taylor was running an illegal drug enterprise and his arrest will make a big impact on the sale of bath salts in the region.

What to do with fireplace insert doors?
Hi, am new to this forum and have a remodel dilemma. Am hiring a contractor to rehab a 1980s house in WA state. The house has a woodburning fireplace insert. However, the outside plate (is that what you call it?) is ugly and the bifold doors don't swing out properly. we want to update the look to modern, but the only solution we've been offered by fireplace companies is to replace the entire insert for $1,500-up. Is there an alternative solution? The outer frame does not seem removable from the rest of the insert. Are there people who can fix the metal doors? Repaint the brass color to jet black?
No picture came up.
If it's an insert then not sure why you would even want a screen.
It would defeat the whole reason for having insert on any I've seen.

Which iPod case or cover do you prefer?
David Nelson
- [ Ignore ]
Just thought I'd throw this topic out for discussion. What's your favorite iPod protector?
David Nelson
- [ Ignore ]
I've owned three iSkins. I got a light blue one for my first iPod, a second-gen model. Then I got a black iSkin for my fourth-gen black-and-white iPod. Just yesterday, I picked up the black iSkin EVO3 for my fifth-gen iPod with video. I have been very satisfied with them all, which is why I stuck with that brand.
Overall I prefer rubbery iPod covers to the slick, smooth ones. I use my iPod connected to my car stereo a lot and that this type of skin helps keep it from sliding off the upholstery to the floor.

If you are looking to book tickets for someone for a particular occasion, don't waste your time. Having been told my ticket choice was the very good pitchside seats, it unfortunately didn't come as a surprise to find the actual tickets that I was given were located in row Z of the highest stand in the ground. It took 3 days to get back to me when I raised the issue, with numerous departments showing greater ineptitude than British Telecom after a boozy lunch.

Eventually we did receive our tickets, at 1pm on the day of the game. But had I not continually called and emailed I doubt I would have got any response. The first 3 times I called I was told the "tickets are with our courier, and will be with you soon" which was completely false. When I eventually received an answer and the number to call, I called the guy he had no idea what our address was and they were not already on their way to us.
I agree that eventually I did have the tickets that I paid £350+ for, but I did not receive them efficiently or effectively and therefore I would not recommend any other customer to use your company

Dear sir ,we already talked with you and explained you we never sold or promised any category in the arsenal fans side for the FA Cup game.
We only sold General Category for this game without any promise to any team fans side.
We done investigation about your tickets and they bought by one of our suppliers direct from the Hull City Club so they was legal to use also many other clients that receive the same zone tickets never have any problem to go inside the game and we received many great response from them.
Please accept our deepest apologies for the entire experience.

Sunday, 1 April 2012
observer ONLINE
International envoy Kofi Annan urged Syria's Bashar al-Assad to
immediately implement a ceasefire as fighting raged even after the
embattled president said he had accepted the peace plan.
Thousands of demonstrators took to the streets across Syria on Friday
to protest against what they regard as the inaction of Arab governments
in the face of a crackdown that the UN says has cost more than 9,000
lives since March 2011.
Peacebroker Annan's ceasefire appeal came as monitors said shells
rained down Friday on Homs, a main rebel bastion which has been the
focus of much of Assad's year-long crackdown on anti-regime protests."We
expect him to implement this plan immediately," Annan's spokesman
said.The United Nations is making plans for a Syria ceasefire observer
mission if hostilities are halted, but the Damascus government has not
even approved sending officials for talks, UN officials said.
The preliminary planning for the force is part of contacts between
UN-Arab League envoy Annan and President Bashar al-Assad's government.
A UN official in New York said a minimum of 250 observers would be
needed if the Syrian government halted its offensive on protesters and
gave its agreement for the international force.
The peace plan calls for a commitment to stop all armed violence, a
daily two-hour humanitarian ceasefire, media access to all areas
affected by the fighting, an inclusive Syrian-led political process, a
right to demonstrate, and release of arbitrarily detained people."I
can't tell you what the next steps will be if they don't stop now," the
Annan spokesman said, adding however that the former UN chief was due to
brief the UN Security Council on Monday and "we will take it from
Annan is also working to convince the Syrian opposition to "lay down
their arms and start talking," he said. State-run news agency SANA said
on Thursday that "President Assad... has informed Annan that Syria
approves the plan (the envoy) submitted but had made remarks about it."
Assad would "spare no effort" for the success of Annan's six-point plan
but said the proposal would only work if "terrorist acts" by foreign
powers stopped.
The Britain-based Syrian Observatory for Human Rights said at least
39 people 32 of them civilians were killed in violence on Friday.
Protesters took to the streets despite a fierce assault by security
forces on the town of Maaret al-Numan in Idlib province in the
Shelling and gunfire killed five civilians, including a 12-year-old
child and a woman, in the city of Homs, while two others were killed in
the province of the same name, said the Observatory.
In the heaviest bloodshed elsewhere, seven civilians were killed in
clashes in the eastern city of Deir Ezzor between police and
demonstrators, while security forces shot dead five people in Daraa
province of southern Syria.
Internet-based activist group The Syrian Revolution 2011, one of the
main motors of the uprising, had called for people to take to the
streets after the main weekly Muslim prayers.
"The Muslims and the Arabs have abandoned us... but God is with us,"
the group said on its Facebook page.An Arab summit in Baghdad on
Thursday, largely ignored by Sunni Arab states, approved a resolution
calling for an end to the Syrian regime's crackdown on dissent, for the
opposition to unite and for parties to the conflict to launch a "serious
national dialogue." The opposition had urged a harsher statement backing
hardliners Qatar and Saudi Arabia, which have called for Assad to step
down and for rebels opposing his regime to be armed.But Iraqi Prime
Minister Nuri al-Maliki said that giving weapons to either side would
"lead to a regional and international proxy war in Syria."
US Secretary of State Hillary Clinton, in talks with Saudi King
Abdullah and other officials in Riyadh Friday, discussed international
efforts to send more humanitarian aid into Syria, and support opposition
efforts to present a united and inclusive political vision for the
future.They also discussed tightening the array of US, European,
Canadian, Arab and Turkish sanctions on Syria, a US State Department
official said.
In Washington, the Treasury Department announced it was targeting
Defence Minister Dawoud Rajiha as well as the army's deputy chief of
staff and the head of presidential security, in its latest round of
sanctions against Damascus.Clinton is due to attend a meeting of the
"Friends of Syria" group in Istanbul on Sunday.Canada on Friday also
tightened sanctions on Syria, targeting Assad's wife, mother, sister and
sister-in-law, a week after the European Union made a similar move.

A Storm of Cloud-Chasing by Jamey4Watch
©2012-2017 Jamey4
I really like this piece, the way you used different textures to heighten the sense of depth. Cloud-Chase could look a bit wetter, maybe more work, hightlights and such (I'm not a professional, lol) on her wet mane and tail, but I do like how you did rain bouncing off of her and the rocks, making it look more realistic. The darker purple, green, and blue tones make this piece stand out, and the grayscale Cloudsdale in the background. I especially like he tall mountain Cloud-Chaser is standing on, though I wondered for a moment where in Equestria you would find a mountain that tall. Then again it IS a land of magic and ponies, so I dont have much to say. As for the lighting, I think you did a great job, though it could be the tiniest bit darker in the bottom of the image, putting more emphasis on Cloud-chaser.You copied the MLP style flawlessy, and you were still able to add your own unique touch.
Keep up the great work!
Keep up the great work!

Looks great!
I really like how you did the background. It's very interesting.
I sayed nice wallpaper ;3
Looks awesome! Nice work!
This made my day, because it's the closest thing I've ever seen to a wet mane Cloud Chaser. Bravo! I really like her mane!
The lighting looks excellent for the shot. Really helps highlight the main points of the pic
