The Indian Space Research Organisation (ISRO) did not inform the cabinet, while seeking approval for two satellites, that they were primarily for the use of the Bangalore-based multimedia firm, Devas.
Isro chairman K Radhakrishnan admitted this on Tuesday even as he declared that the government was, in any case, in the process of scrapping the deal between the agency's commercial arm, Antrix, and Devas.
In 2005, Antrix struck a deal with Devas Multimedia on leasing out of a space segment capacity that would use S-Band spectrum. Now there are allegations that the deal resulted in a huge loss to the exchequer.
"We realised that the S-band spectrum that no one was interested in back in 2005 was now a precious national commodity," Radhakrishnan said, confirming that no bidding was conducted before the deal with Devas.
Sources confirmed that it was Devas that had approached Isro with the project proposal.
Both the Prime Minister's Office and Isro asserted on Tuesday that the country suffered no revenue loss from the deal.
Radhakrishnan, however, said it was not explicitly mentioned to the cabinet that the two satellites, GSAT 6 and GSAT 6A, were primarily going to be used by Devas. He said 90% of transponders on two satellites were to be used by Devas to send out multimedia programmes.
The Isro chief stressed it was the government's own internal checks and balances that led to the move towards annulling the contract with Devas.
In December 2009, Isro decided to review the Devas contract and concluded through the review that the deal must be annulled. In June 2010, the law ministry told Isro to scrap the deal.
Asked why the deal had not yet been scrapped eight months later, Radhakrishnan said the government wanted to ensure all steps were taken to minimise the penalty that Isro would need to pay to terminate the contract.

Subtle shimmer? Coco Chanel fabulous. Gaudy glitter, on the other hand — more like fashion faux pas. This Parisian brand's iridescent oil strikes the optimal balance between sophisticated, fun, and just plain good for you. Six essential oils, plus Vitamin E, leave face, body, and hair soft and silky. Better yet, microscopic flecks of golden shimmer deliver a subtle glow, perfect to set off your favorite party frock.
Results from NUXE's clinical studies:
• 73% of testers noticed an improved overall appearance of stretch marks
This oil shimmer is AMAZING! It makes me feel like a goddess! I put it on my cheekbones whenever I feel like I need a boost. It makes my skin glow, but is subtle enough that it looks natural and not gaudy. I LOVE it. As soon as I run out of the sample, I'm buying this!5
I was really skeptical about this at first as I am not one for glitter and I wasn't sure if I wanted to put an oil in my hair. I just didn't see myself using it. Then, I took the plunge, and it is one of my favorite products. It's almost like a moroccan oil. I use it after straightening my hair, and it just keeps those fly aways down. It's not really sparkly which I like. It also smells good! This was my absolute favorite product this month. It has to be one of my all time favorites as well (with the Sunday Riley Lipid and the Zoya Polish). :)5
This is a great shimmer product. Screw the powders that dust a fine glitter and run away with sweat. This dry oil is great for the night scene, only it will not wash away with your first shower. That is a good thing but could also be a bad thing. So don't put this on before a very important job meeting. Other than that, it's wonderful and I love it.5

Those of you who have been reading this blog for a while know a bit about my love and affection for Vermont, and if you don't and really want to know you can click here and here. And love it I do...but I love it most of all when the wildflowers are blooming, the corn is in the meadow, and it's warm enough to dance on the top of your car. Disclaimer: that is NOT me. It may or may not be someone who is related to me who got bored while I was shooting pictures on the side of the road, put some Aerosmith on the car stereo and entertained herself while at the same time thoroughly confusing all the cows in the vicinity. I promise I am getting to the point. The point is that for much of the year in Vermont, you don't want to be anywhere near the top of the car. You want to be inside with a fire in the woodstove and a pot of nice warm cheese soup on the table. Made with Vermont cheddar cheese, please.

Cheddar Jalapeno Huevos Rancheros in Tortilla Cups
Here's one of the many things I love about my little blog...one thing leads to another and I end up getting ideas and recipes from the most unexpected places. Take this little number, for example. Where would you expect something that has the words "jalapeno, huevos, rancheros" and "tortilla" to come from? Someplace south of the border, right? Someplace warm and sunny? Someplace like this? If you guessed tropical, sultry Vermont, you would be right. I wish I had a picture of it with a little more snow...this is actually what our cabin view will look like in the spring when things thaw out a little...but you get my drift. So here's what happened....I was singing the praises of Cabot cheddar recently in my post on Butternut Cheddar Soup. That particular recipe came from an ad for the wonderful Vermont Cabot cheddar, and the great folks at Cabot liked my post. They sent me a groovy package of stuff, including a recipe booklet full of things that you can make with Vermont cheese and Read More & Get the Recipe

WILMINGTON,NC (WWAY) — We've all heard the saying "sleep tight, don't let the bed bugs bite," but a Wilmington hotel customer says she did not sleep too well Thursday night because of a few creepy crawlies.
Wendy Howard stayed in the Value Place, an extended stay hotel on Carolina Beach Road. She says she didn't sleep too well after seeing a few bed bugs and roaches.
"I saw a bed bug, and maybe five or six baby roaches," said Howard. "They were crawling in the kitchen, in the bathroom, and in the immediate area that we were staying. I felt totally disgusted, because I've never seen bed bugs except for on television."
Howard says she showed a hotel worker a bug crawling up the wall in her room, but says nothing was done about it. She says another worker at Value Place accused her and her fiancé of bringing the bugs with them and infesting the room.
"They accused us of bringing this, when they and I both know that in order for bed bugs to be there, it has to be an infestation," said Howard. "In order for baby roaches to be there, they had to have hatched from somewhere."
Howard says a hotel worker told her and her fiancé to leave immediately. She says she did get a partial refund from value place, but doesn't plan on staying there again.
"I do believe that the whole hotel should be evacuated," said Howard. "It needs to be checked for bed bugs and roaches."
Howard says she has informed the health department about Value Place's bug problem, but says they have not gotten back to her.
We talked to another customer who says she and her husband have stayed at the Value Place for months. She says they, too, have had problems with bugs.
We tried reaching someone from Value Place for a comment on the bug problem, but no one would speak with us.

First Man to Break the Sound Barrier
Print Interview
I was running the Aerospace Research Pilots School at that time, some time around '65, when NASA -- or Paul Bickel, who was the administrator of NASA there at Edwards -- called me and said, "What do you think about Smith's Ranch Lake?" I said I was just up there yesterday in a B-57 looking at it, and it's wet. He said, "My guys say it isn't wet." So I said, "Be my guest." That's exactly what I said. He said, "Would you go up there and land on it?" I said, "No, I won't. It's wet." And he said, "Would you ride with Neil in one of our airplanes?" I said, "Yeah, as long as I'm not responsible for anything that happens."
So I went over to NASA, and they had a T-33 and Neil was flying it. I took my chute and helmet over, and we just wore light flying suits and gloves. I got in the back seat and sat there. Neil taxied out and took off on the dry lake bed, we fly up to Smith's Ranch Lake, he backs off, comes in and he's going to touch down. I said, "Neil, the lake is wet." He said, "No I think it looks dry enough for me to just touch down, let it roll, and I'll add power and come back off." I said, "You get on that lake surface in a T-33, and it starts sinking in, you're never going to overcome the drag with the power, if you are at about 5000 feet elevation where the lake bed is." And that's exactly what happened. He came in, touched down, the airplane starts slowing down, he puts full power on it, it keeps slowing down and, finally, it just stops and sinks in the mud. We are sitting there, shut it off, now what? We are thirty miles from a road, it's about 3:30 in the afternoon, it's cold and you've got 30 miles to walk with a thin flying suit on. Fortunately, Paul Bickel sent a Gooney Bird, a C-47 that NASA had down there, to follow us because he suspected something might happen. Good insurance. We sat there for about half an hour, sitting on the wing of the airplane. You could walk on the lake bed and it would leave footprints, but pretty soon the old Gooney Bird homed into sight. I got back in the airplane, put the battery switch on and turned the radio on. I said, "We only got one choice. If you land over next to the edge of the lake and keep the airplane rolling, you probably won't sink, and then we can get back off the ground. Give us time to walk over to the edge of the lake. Don't slow the airplane down. Keep the door open and we'll jump aboard." And he did. He landed and slowed it down. He was leaving a pretty good rut in the lake, but he kept the power on and as he came by we ran along and jumped in the back end of the airplane. When we got back to Edwards, it was after dark. The T-33 sat up there, the Navy went out and recovered it a week later. It was just an experience. You know things because you live on those lake beds, like I had since 1945. And the guys, they don't use their head. That's a good example.
It's not the most flattering picture of the man that walked on the moon.
Chuck Yeager: Well, Neil was a pretty good engineer. He wasn't too good an airplane driver.
What do you think of the direction NASA is going in today? What do you think the big priority should be?
Chuck Yeager: I think that basically we are stuck with the shuttle. It's that simple, because of narrow-mindedness and not looking at what's available in the world. NASA doesn't have any choice; it's pretty well hamstrung as to what its goals are in the future and what they can accomplish. Since it's the only kid we've got, we've got to support it. If we look at the laboratories that we are building, space vehicles out in permanent orbit and also the moon as a possible launching site for deep space exploration -- manned and unmanned -- they should be supported about the same amount as far as I'm concerned. The year that I spent on the President's space commission, developing a master plan for what the United States should do in space for the next fifty years, was very interesting in that you went through all of these things. That was the year prior to the shuttle accident, and we went to our industry to get answers. What do you think we can do in space? We went to the academic world and NASA, who is supposed to be our experts in space. The one thing that we noticed when we started going to the different NASA centers, like JPL (Jet Propulsion Laboratory), Marshall and others, is that these people don't even talk to each other! They don't even know what each division is doing. The different levels of supervision at NASA don't even communicate. For a whole year we sat and looked at this, and then bang, the shuttle accident happens, because of those characteristics. It was unfortunate.
Today, NASA has cleaned up its act quite a bit. They are being a little overcautious, which is costing them in payload with the shuttle. Also, they are over-budgeted. They don't get more money than they need, they are just spending a heck of a lot more than they need to. It's unfortunate, but that's the only space program that we have. Except the Air Force has been quietly developing space weapons systems the last 15 years, just for its own defense. That has paid off now in things like the Patriot missiles.
If you had been in charge that morning, would you have taken the fire call concerns more seriously?
Chuck Yeager: Definitely. You see, that's the problem. There were no lines of communication between the different levels of supervision in NASA, so these guys don't know that there is a problem. I think there are a lot of things that entered into the shuttle accident, and one was the PR pressure of getting that launch off on schedule. The press is there. And that, plus a lack of communication and not paying attention to red flags. A lot of this is Monday morning quarterbacking, but it did happen and it shouldn't have happened.
I have some sense that the shuttle was sort of flown by committee.
Chuck Yeager: It was built by Rockwell to specifications and simulators, and the guys flew it. A lot of people raised their eyebrows when the Soviets flew a similar space vehicle from launch to touch down, without a crew aboard. The shuttle can do that. It just so happens the guys take over on base leg, and touch down on Rogers Dry Lake. They don't have to.
In 1968 you were promoted to the rank of brigadier general. You once referred to that as your "miracle star," didn't you? Why?
That's putting it mildly. Talk if you will about some of the other historic aircraft you flew. The X-5, for instance.
Chuck Yeager: Well, the X-5 was the first variable swept wing airplane that we built. It was just one of the family of "X" airplanes, meaning research. Like the X-1 was supersonic, X-2 was hydrosonic, the X-3 was supersonic intake ducts, the X-4 was a semi-tailless airplane and the X-5 was a variable swept wing airplane. It was designed to sweep its wings from 20 degrees back to 60 to see what mach drag did on variable swept wings. We built two of them. A guy named Ray Popson got killed in one, in a spin, and we finished the other one up and it's back in the Air Force Museum in Wright Field now, just like a lot of them. We built two X-4s and I flew all of them. One is at the Air Force Academy and one is in the museum. The X-3, there is one still, I think, back in the Air Force Museum. The X-2, we lost them.
They can't all be gems, I guess. How did you feel about the F-104 after that?
So in general you feel it's a good plane?
Chuck Yeager: Yeah. You see, we used it in the school for space training. It gave you a minute and a half of zero G, gravity-free flight, above 75,000 feet with a pressure suit and a hydrogen peroxide control, same as a space capsule, and you can do it pretty cheaply. But then in 1966, the Air Force was out of the space business, so we canceled everything.
Looking back on all those planes that you flew over the years, and that you still fly, did you have any favorites?
Chuck Yeager: You don't. You like the P-51 because you flew it in combat. It was a good airplane. But today, the newer the airplane, the better it is. It's just like a car. You get a 1991 Cadillac, you got high tech, a lot of computer technology in it, versus a 1980 Cadillac. It's just better and more fun to drive.
There are a lot more complex controls and use of the computer in planes today.
Chuck Yeager: We ran into a problem back in '50s, when we were able to fly airplanes at supersonic speeds. All the fighter aircraft that we have designed, even from World War I to World War II, has to be very maneuverable. It also has to have a little bit of stability so that the pilot can handle it. The fighters that we designed in World War I and World War II, and even in Korea, those fighters had a limited stability capability and were made very maneuverable. Now, when we were able to smoke these airplane out beyond the speed of sound and get a supersonic flow over the whole airplane, they became very stable. We found ourselves in a position in the '50s and early '60s, that when these airplanes were flying at supersonic speeds, although they were very maneuverable under the speed of sound, when you got them above the speed of sound, they were too stable to maneuver.
What was happening also, all of our fighters, like F-4 Phantom 2s, were carrying 28 different kinds of weapons. To manage each of those weapons requires a checklist. It looks like Sears and Roebuck's catalogue. And what happened, because of the computer capacity in these computer flight control systems, we could then program all of the data necessary to manage all these weapons that you could carry, and that brought about a requirement for the cathode ray tube in the cockpit, just like a table-top computer. The first F-16s didn't have them. The F-18, which used digital computer flight control systems, had cathode ray tubes so that we could program all the data into that computer to manage these weapon systems, and the cathode ray tube was put in there so that the computer could communicate with the pilot and give him the data necessary to manage the weapons. That's where we are today, everything is computer enhanced.
Today, with airplanes like the new advanced technical fighter family, the F-22 and Y-23, these are a new advanced family of stealth fighters which fly at mach two, and they supercruise, which means you don't use afterburner in them. They supercruise out at very fast speed and they have stealth technology so you can evade any radar. So that's what's happening today.
Is it difficult for a pilot today to be aware of the computer, and fly the plane at the same time?
How would you account for the rather swift assertion of air superiority the U.S. took over Iraq (in 1991)?
Chuck Yeager: Basically technology: the laser-guided bombs, optically guided bombs, the initial stealth capability with the 117s going in and neutralizing a lot of the command and control network and radar network. It puts them in a very bad place. Also, AWACS, the airborne warning radar. Airplanes are sitting up there looking at everything that's going on over the whole country of Iraq, on the ground as well as in the air and are also tied into the communications systems of Iraq. That's the reason the guys that are going in know exactly what they are faced with. Also, the AWACS airplane uses electronic counter measure systems against radar, and other weapons detection systems. The airplanes are carrying electronic counter measure pods on them and they are very effective.
A pretty different scene than back in World War II.
Do you think the same skills are nevertheless necessary for a great pilot today?
Chuck Yeager: Yes, sure. He's very much in the loop. In fact, he is very good at what he does, and he has to be in the loop. The airplane won't do it without him. And all this computer enhancement just makes him better at what he does.
But you still have got to have the same guts too.
Chuck Yeager: There are a lot of duty-oriented pilots out there today. In fact, they all are. They are very dedicated, as we were in World War II, Vietnam or Korea. And it shows up today too.
What about the remote control aspect of airplanes?
Do you think technology has removed a lot of the stress of being a pilot?
Chuck Yeager: No. You are still exposed to high G loads, and also you are in a hostile environment. Anytime you're smoking along at mach two in an airplane, depending on a piece of mechanical equipment to keep you alive, the stress is still there, especially the high G loads. Airplanes we flew, like in World War II or Vietnam, were stressed for 7.33 Gs. The airplanes today -- F-16, 18, 20, 22, 23 -- are stressed for nine Gs.

There is scant doubt humans have a propensity for seeking an undercover conspiracy to explain away tragic events. In modern times, the presence of the Internet and social networks makes the spread of conspiracy theories much easier. The problem is that while most so-called "conspiracies" are flights of the imagination, some actually are true. Former prime minister Tony Blair is upset because he was called to testify at the Chilcot inquiry into the process followed that resulted in the invasion of Iraq. He told American politician, Mike Huckabee, on his television show the Chilcot inquiry was part of a vast undertaking to create a conspiracy when none ever existed. He wants an end to speculation about his motives for leading the UK into war.
Blair charges for many people, "there's got to be a scandal as to why you hold our view… I think there's a continual desire to sort of uncover some great conspiracy." Fair enough, Tony, are questions concerning his decision for war a desire to spread conspiracy theories? Perhaps, Blair can explain why no WMD were found. The ironic aspect of the Blair charge is that BUSH AND HE spread a conspiracy theory that Saddam Hussein had WMD and was plotting some diabolical attack on western nations. Could Tony please explain why he spread this CONSPIRACY THEORY?

LAPD Criticism For Heavy-Handed Anti-Protest Tactics
by Andrew Gumbel in Los Angeles
After Al Gore, perhaps nobody needed last week's Democratic convention to go smoothly more than the Los Angeles Police Department. With a reputation for brutality and mired by corruption scandals, the LAPD was not merely concerned to keep the peace; with Justice Department officials breathing down its neck, its independence was at stake.
The good news, after four days of chasing groups of protesters all over downtown Los Angeles, was that no crowd was allowed to run out of control, no property was damaged, and only 200 arrests were made.
The bad news was that the LAPD was caught on camera firing rubber bullets indiscriminately into a crowd of overwhelmingly peaceful concert-goers on Monday night. It is now being sued by civil rights groups for targeting television journalists at that gathering, presumably to prevent incriminating footage from being released. It also arrested two journalists during a bicycle protest two days later.
The paramilitary hardware in the city's streetskept trouble-makers at bay, but also raised old concerns that the LAPD is more interested in being a fighting force than defending the rights of citizens.
Both before and during the convention, the courts rapped the LAPD's knuckles three times for attempting to restrict the rights of protesters.
And now there is a new controversy about last week's use of undercover agents a power removed from the LAPD for several years because it was suspected that its operatives incited violence that uniformed officers could then respond to.
The LAPD came out of the week almost ecstatic. "Morale is high right now, higher than it's been for some time,'' said Deputy Chief Martin Pomeroy.
But almost everyone else disagreed. Dan Tokaji, a lawyer for the American Civil Liberties Union, said there was now a compelling case for putting the LAPD under the supervision of the Justice Department.

FY2014 Budget Request Delayed to April?
President Obama should have submitted his FY2014 budget request to Congress in February, but the latest rumor is that it will be delayed until the first week of April.
By law, the budget request is supposed to be sent to Congress on the first Monday in February -- this year, that would have been February 4. The White House informed Congress that it would not meet that date, but still has not officially announced when it will be released.
Some press reports had been saying that March 25 would be the date, but today The Hill newspaper says the Department of Defense (DOD) budget, at least, won't be ready then, either. Instead, the new date is April 8.
Ordinarily the budgets for all agencies are submitted at the same time. It is possible that DOD's could be earlier or later than others, but until the White House makes an official announcement, April 8 is the best date available.
Both the House and Senate are scheduled to be in recess from March 25-April 5 for Easter, so in that sense the difference between March 25 and April 8 (the Monday they return) seems less dramatic, but congressional staff and a legion of organizations and lobbyists are anxiously awaiting information on what the FY2014 budget may bring.

Republican-Herald photo Sunde 'Rejoins' Staff Saw Berlin's Reds In Monstrous Flop ('Editor's Note: The following story was written for The Repub- lican-Herald today 'by Tenold P. (Bill) Sunde, a. member ol the staff of this newspaper 2S years ago. Mr. Sunde is now a news depart- ment executive with the New York Daily News, largest daily news- paper in the United States. His home formerly was at Peterson, Minn. Mrs. Sunde, vacationing in Winona with him, is the former Miss Lolita Seemann of this city.) This li my first job for The Republican-Herald in 28 years. I re- turned to Wlnona for a brief vacation after spending three somewhat feverish weeks in Berlin, Germany, where I represented the New York Daily News the paper which has been bleeding me for a quarter ol a century come next fall. Said Gordon Closway, this paper's editor: "Sit down and write something about Berlin.

The first factor is the incom- pleteness of the Kremlin's war pre- parations. The second is the .con- tinuing vulnerability of the soviet vital centers to the West's superior, weight of atomic weapons. These As General Maxwell p. Taylor, are the temporary obstacles war, which will be largely or whol- ly removed when Soviet rearma- ment reaches its climax in 1953-'54. The enduring obstacle, which note from you." So I sat down. I flew to Germany a staff photographer for the News on May 17 to cover the Communists' threatened "storming of Berlin" on the May 28 Whitsuntide holiday, The as originally ad- vertised last January was to con- sist of sending East Ger- man (Communist) Frele Deutscher Jugend German into the city's western sectors held by the United States, United King- dom and France. Plan of Terror The plan was to so terrorize West Berlin's citizens that they would beg the Western Allies to leave them, in "peace" with the Russian-dominated Eastern zone of Germany. Berlin, it must be remembered, lies 125 miles behind the Iron Curtain, and the Western occu- pation of half of it causes the Kremlin no little pain. House-Approved Rent Bill Goes Back to Senate Threat of New Filibuster May Delay Final 0. K. By William F. Arbogast Washington Iff) House pas- sage of a rent control bill bounc- ed it back to the Senate today the threat of a new fili- buster there. Changes which were voted late yesterday by the House as it passed the bill 202 to 163 make it necessary for the Senate to take another look, and Senator Cain who led a fili- buster last week before the Sen- ate passed the bill, indicated that he wants a good, long look. He might want to start another filibuster which conceivably could prolong final action beyond June 30, when the present rent control act expires. Cain told newsmen he is "study- ing the possibility of fighting the The house-voted changes are rel- atively minor. The Senate voted for a one-year extension of the federal control program, with the last six months of control affecting only those com- munities that request continuance from next January 31 to June 30. The House decided to make the general extension until next Janu- ary 31 seven months with communities having the option of keeping controls for an additional five months instead of six. Another change made by the house would give the unincorporat- ed areas of counties the right to remove controls after a public hearing. That option already be- ongs to states and Incorporated communities. The reasoning behind the house decision to extend the controls gen- erally until January 31 was that state legislatures, many of them meeting in January, would have a chance to enact local laws before'through the rainy, roadless jungle, the federal statute expires. And Jin the wild lion and leopard U.S. Commandant of Berlin explains it: "Berlin is invaluable to us as a always prevent war West is reasonably strong, if the is sim- ply an inner weakness of the So- viet system. Perhaps the best way to present the facts about this weakness is simply to describe the occasion, last March, on which this reporter glimpsed Stalin's Achilles heel, through the eyes of another man. THE PLACE WAS THE HOUSE of an American in one of the less dreadful German cities. The speak- er was an intelligent, civilized, youngish German of Junker stock, who had served successively in the pre-war German embassy in Mos- cow; as a fighting soldier on the Russian front; and as a member of the inner group of the German general staff. His talk had a tincture of cos- mic comedy, because he was so much possessed by two conflicting rapes. He was enraged because Hitler had not been murdered, al- though he personally had been in- volved in a whole series of assas- sination plots, including the great plot of war, because Hitler in his folly had refused to use the Rus- sians to beat the Russians. Of all Hitler's war-time errors, it is now almost certain that his- tory will choose this as the great- est. The plain, documented truth is that at the beginning of the Ger- man invasion of the Soviet Union, the vast slave population at the base of the Russian system showed every sign of active disloyalty and incipient revolt. Yet Hitler threw away this incalculable advantage, in order to Indulge his own now and then listening post and a show window in the heart of Eastern Europe. As a listening post it enables us to know at all times what the Com- munists are doing. As a show win- dow it gives thousands of Eastern Europeans each week indisputable proof of what western democracy is accomplishing which the Russian version cannot." Sober Thought Well, the Russians gave this idea some sober thought after an- nouncing their Whitsuntide plan It occurred to some of the Commie leaders that it might not be the better part of wisdom to turn half a million Red-policed youngsters into the comparative lustiness and luxury of West Berlin. Also they were firmly warned that any sort of organized demonstration carried into the west sectors would be dealt with forcibly. So the propaganda buildup for Whitsuntide underwent a not so subtle change. youth rally was to be confined to the Communist sec- tor of the city and to make cer- tain that it was, the East Ger- man "People's Police" set up barricades at the border and guarded every subway station by which the boys and girls from the hinterlands might "escape" into what now became the for- bidden western sectors. The four days of demonstration, climaxed by a seven-hour parade on Sunday, May 28, came off as a mon- strous flop. The "Free German Youth" loitered listlessly and wist- fully at the border barricades. They grabbed eagerly at the chocolates Transportation Tax Dodge Has Its Disadvantage Washington Sure, you can dodge U. S. transporta- tion taxes by buying passenger tickets and paying freight bills In Canada. But there's a catch: You've got to go to Canada to do it. Payment through banks, mail or telegraph doesn't count. The legal loophole to doge the three per cent freight tax and the 15 per cent on pas- senger travel became widely known "yesterday. From Seattle, Wash., where the idea is catching on, came estimates that U. S. shippers such as the big railroads would save millions of dollars. Officials of the Bureau of Internal Revenue confirmed that the plan is legal, but doubted the savings would run so high. They figure that per- sonal payment requirement will hold things down. The loophole is in the word- ing of the tax act, which ap- plies to .the "amount paid with- in the United States." What Congress will do to end the payments-through-Canada is uncertain. Senator Bagnuson (D.-Wash.) had one way all figured out. Kill the tax, he suggested.

Business Outlook Good, CED Reports Real Income of Average Worker May Be Doubled By Sterling F. Green Washington The Commit- tee for Economic Development said today that prospects are good for a doubling of the real income, or buying power, of the average American workers in the next 30 years. To do so, the businessmen's planning organization said, ways must be found to keep production per man-hour rising at the same average rate as in the past half-! century. The CED offered a formula for boosting real wages to an hour in 1980, in terms of 1949 prices, as against the average worker's today and the aver- age of 43 cents 50 years ago. Stabilizing industrial growth to avoid blighting recessions, increas- ing imports, and reforming the tax system to encourage risk-taking investment 'were among the rec- ommended measures. 'Success in raising real wages is in the main a matter of increas- ing output her said the statement prepared by CED's re- search and policy committee and issued by the CED chairman, Ma- rion B. Folsom, treasurer and di- rector of the Eastman Kodak Company. Steady Work Needed "It is also matter of keeping people steadily at work." The three-fold increase in the buying power of the average a gain in productivity of two and one-half per cent a year. The out- put per man hour has risen from 50.5 cents to In dol- lars of 1949 buying power, the Congress would have a month in 1951 in which to take another'look at the rental housing picture. Both the Senate and the House bills affect an estimated rented dwellings, or about half those that were under controls in 1946. Recent changes in the origin- al law provided for gradual decon- trol. House Republicans, like Cam, ar- gued that there no longer is any need for controls.

"Improve the quality of busi- ness births and reduce the infant mortality among business con- cerns." 4. "Reform the tax system to make risk-taking more attractive. 5.

Finletter told a graduating class today it can hope for a world without war only if America pursues a policy of peace through power. Finletter spoke at commencement exercises of the University of Pennsylvania. For prevention of war, he said in his prepared speech, we need a force so strong, so capable of violent counter attack, as to deter any and feather bedding, nation bent on breaking peace. And for the immediate future, he sees a need for continuing to increase the fighting strength of the United States and her allies, because "the curve of military power is rising everywhere." The air secretary didn't point to any new turns ahead in the road of foreign and military policy. Mainly, he tried to give young peo- ple just getting out of college an understanding of why we are arm- ing when, we want peace. He said: "Already this conflict of the need to prepare for war when in fact we want peace is con- fusing some of our citizens. The power of a modern military estab- lishment is appalling; and to give jus further pause, the role of de- jfense now consists in major part of counter attack." Finletter didn't speak of defi- nite numbers of guns and planes and A-bombs. He didn't speak of Russia by name. But he talked of "our enemies" as straight out ene- mies, not probable or possible ones. Yet he said he has faith for the future, because there is "one great thing on our side the wish of the ordinary maa everywhere for peace." "No government, however dicta- torial its he said, can for- ever block the will of the people in their urge to stop the evil of war. The goal is there before us. It is a goal that can be reached." But for the time being, Finlet- ter said, these three principles should guide America's military policies: 1.

He added: "I do not believe this creates an immediate danger of war, but it is jbeing used as a poised bludgeon to 1 intimidate the weak, and it does iconfront the world with the possi- bility that the Soviet leaders, when- iever they feel that they are strong enough, may be tempted to make use of military force as an instru- ment of their policy." How to meet the challenge of Soviet pressure? "Well, there are several ways we could go about meeting these he said.

Mrs. Gavle's trail started May 22 after a week spent in selecting the jury of ten men and two women. Mrs. Gavle denied from the stand that she intended to kill anyone by putting the poison in her husband's whisky. Instead, she said, she wanted to cure her hus- band of his heavy drinking.

He said Mrs. Gavle gave him the money with which to purchase the poison at an Albert Lea drug store on October 2, 1949.

How Much SeaFoam to use?
Hey All -
I just got my new-to-me 73 Honda CB350 and it starts and runs okay (hard to start cold though). Anyhow, I am pretty sure that the carbs should (maybe not NEED to be) be cleaned out. I wanted to try using SeaFoam, because hey, it couldn't hurt. I want to see if I can avoid carb work as long as possible.
So, I know what it does (the SeaFoam, that is), but do not know how much I should put in for the first go-round cleaning. I am looking to put it in both my oil and gas (gas first, though to see what happens). I know that some people use a bit in each tank, but I am looking on how much to add to a 5 gallon tank for an intial clean. Thanks!
After The Fact Stuff
You and me both Brother! :eek: Think I waited just too long to add 'Sta-Bil' to my rides this past year and now they're really cranky! :o Just bit the bullet yesterday and sent off for a couple of cans of Sea-Foam myself. The eBay vender posted "one pint treats 8-25 gallons of fuel (average 1 ounce per gallon)" on his page. So either it works or it's pull the carb(s), disassemble, and soak in Berryman Carb Cleaner overnight yet AGAIN. Been there, done that more times then I care to remember over the years, but think you have too?! ;)
Keep the Faith,
LRG :cool:
Footnote: Hmmmm, I'm thinking that year of CB350 had about a 3.2 to 3.4 gallon tank capacity. Man, "5.0" would of been great! :D
Here is a link to the Sea Foam web site. It shows the mixing process (gas application).
Read the label too. I thought that it had the info on there also. :)
Would put like 1/4 of it in your tank and drive around, see if you notice any improvement
I just bought 3 gallons of gas and put it into a gas can - I will add ~ 3 ounces to the container and use it that way. I will update on the outcome.
It can also be put into the air intake. The can says 1/3 of a oz. I just put 3.5oz into a full tank (3.7gals). I plan to put 3oz into my oil and ride for a hour before I change the oil next time.
Here is info about it:

If filters are gelled, change them and fill them with SEA FOAM.
__________________________________________________ __
How to Use SEA FOAM
In Tune-Up of Small 4 Cycle Carbureted Engine Lawn Mowers, Tillers, Edgers, Snowblowers, etc.
Start engine. If engine will not start, check spark and compression. If engine has spark and compression, pour a small amount up to 1/2 ounce into the carburetor throat. SEA FOAM will act as starting fulid and will start the engine unless there is a mechanical or electrical problem. With engine warm, keep on high idle and slowly pour one ounce through carburetor throat. Make sure exhaust is well ventilated when using in the carburetor as fumes will be extreme for a short time.
Pour 1/2 ounce to one ounce into small fuel tank and oil crackcase.
Immediate Results: Same as for large 4 cycle Autos, Trucks, Tractors, etc.
NOTE: One pint treats 8-25 gallons of gas (average one ounce per gallon) or 6-12 gallons of gas oil mix (average 2 ounces per gallon.) Does not replace oil. Use frequently.
For Small 2-Cycle Engines
Use procedure 1 of tune-up of small 4 cycle carbureted engines.
Pour 1/2 to 1 ounce into small fuel tank.
See label on can for exact detailed results for use in each area Fuel Tank-Carburetor.
NOTE: SEA FOAM does not replace 2 cycle oil.
For Engine Storage
For storage, the engine should be thoroughly saturated internally with Sea Foam. Sea Foam can be injected internally through the spark plug holes or through the carburetor with ignition off.
For Fuel Stabilization
Use 1 pint to 25 gallons or (average of 1 ounce per gallon) to stabilize and condition fuels. One pint stabilizes 25 gallons of regular, unleaded and diesel fuels.
Use 1 pint to stabilize 6-12 gallons of 2 cycle (gas-oil mix) fuels (average 2 ounce per gallon).
Common Reasons Service Technicians Use SEA FOAM MOTOR TREATMENT
When your vehicle has a rough idle, hesitates, stalls, pings or has an after run problem this is often due to carbon buildup.
Your service technician can offer a reasonably priced fuel systems cleaning with the use of SEA FOAM products to solve these carbon problems.
When your vehicles fuel injectors need cleaning this is often due to residue left on injectors from poor burning fuels and contaminants.
Your service technician can offer an inline fuel injection cleaning with the use of an injector cleaning machine and SEA FOAM MOTOR TREATMENT. SEA FOAM MOTOR TREATMENT is also added to the fuel to disperse moisture, clean fuel lines and injectors while driving.
When moisture needs to be removed from fuels or an anti gel or de-icer is needed these conditions are due to condensation in the fuel tank and extreme cold weather creating gas line freeze or diesel fuel gelling.
Your service technician can recommend the use of SEA FOAM MOTOR TREATMENT in the fuel tanks to dry moisture and cure these problems.
When there is moisture detected in the oil this problem is due mostly to poor ventilation and condensation. Sometimes, however, there is a bad head gasket, cracked head or block that must be replaced.
Your service technician will diagnose the problem and recommend the repairs. As part of the diagnostics, a SEA FOAM MOTOR TREATMENT can be used in the oil crankcase to cure the moisture problems. A SEA FOAM MOTOR TREATMENT can also be used in the oil crankcase after repairs to make sure moisture is eliminated.
When valve lifter noise is apparent or piston rings seem to be sticking this is often due to dirty and gummed up oil passages, varnished lifters and buildup of gum, varnish and carbon in the piston ring areas.
Your service technician can offer a SEA FOAM MOTOR TREATMENT that will clean sticky lifters and free sticky rings. By doing this treatment you will be able to determine if there is a varnish problem or a mechanical problem.
To help pass emissions tests high emission numbers are usually caused by extreme carbon build up, dirty emission control items such as: pcv valve, egr valve, oxygen sensors or bad spark plugs and wires.
Your service technician can provide a pre-emission test service that includes SEA FOAM MOTOR TREATMENT as a cleaning agent to help pass emissions tests.
When fuel stabilization and engine fogging is needed fuels of today become stale in less than thirty days. Therefore, stabilization and engine fogging are needed when vehicles, lawnmowers, snow blowers, outboard motors, chainsaws, motorcycles, gas in cans and engines are put into storage.
Your service technician can provide fuel stabilization and engine fogging services with SEA FOAM MOTOR TREATMENT.
I just ran some SeaFoam through my Yamaha and it made a huge difference. There's a lot more power, throttle response is much better, and she purrs like a kitten at idle. I used 1/3 in the tank, 1/3 in the intakes, and the last 1/3 in the oil. The intake method is my favorite because I get an awesome smoke show to watch. :cool:
Well, I used it and it (only in the gas for now) and it IMMEDIATELY made a big difference. Starts, idles, and responds much better now. I know that many are leery of MAGICAL elixirs, but this one, regardless if it is magic or not, does make a difference. Will it mean that I never have to take it apart and clean it? I doubt it, but it should make the times in between stretch out longer. But then again, you never know!
Oh, and a newb question here - how do you go about getting it into the intakes?
Edit: Oh, and I only used about 3.5 ounces for 3 gallons of gas. Just put the gas in a can, mixed it together, and poured her in.
I have an 85 Honda Nighthawk CB650SC
The intake boots on my bike each have a vacuum fitting. I just removed the cap and poured in some Seafoam using a special homemade tool (vacuum line and a small funnel). I did one cylinder at a time and let it sit a while to make sure it got everything out. It was tedious but it worked.
Hi all, Am new here and wanted to add that i have read good things on line about sea foam. Was put into the gas tank of a triumph tiger 98 that had been sitting for years. The guy let it sit for a few days then the bike ran like new. Some have called it snake oil only i don't think so. Great forum. Lots of good info.
And was reading about the '73 Honda 350cb. That was my first bike in 73. Bought it brand new. It cost 800 dollars new at the time. And they are good bikes. I rode mine from Albany,NY to Miami, Florida without a hitch.
$800 new? They have gone up in value then - $1100 blue book as of last week. I paid just about that for the one that I got, which runs (almost) like new.
If you have a way of pouring it into the intake so that it reaches the cylinders then I say go for it. There's no way to do that on my bike so I had to go for the method I used.
350 cb
We're sorta drifting off subject here....
Back to the subject at hand.
Sea Foam.
No, I don't believe in elixirs, snake oil, additives, and such.
Yes, I use Sea Foam. Regularly. Because it works.
My Dodge Stratus has been having morning sickness the last couple of weeks, on & off. Last time this happened, we ended up with one cylinder quitting altogether and a $300.00 bill from the repair shop...for cleaning the injectors. This time, I headed the Apaches off at the pass. 1 can Sea Foam; car runs great again.
I also ran Sea Foam through a set of carbs on a customer's Venture Royale which clearly needed a carb cleaning (wouldn't idle, stumbled on acceleration). I ran the Sea Foam into the carbs and let them soak overnight. The next day I rode the bike for 3 miles and it purred like a kitten. I'm sold!
Sea Foam is awesome stuff. B12 seems to work as well too.
Hi all.
In regards to using SeaFoam directly sucked in via intake, it's sounds to me people are "pouring" SeaFoam in??? I hope not. I'd suggest to use some sort of mister/spray bottle. A finished/empty hairspray bottle or something of the sort would work nicey; the smaller the bottle the better to work with, since you'll not be using too much seafoam. So, when you're spraying at an angle, the spray tube will still be able to get the SeaFoam...
anyway, I haven't tried this yet, so I'm not sure of the effects :eek:
Yes, I know the "easier said than done", but I will try it very soon, like after I wake up and get some breakfast and then I'll return to report back.
Sorry Folks but there's always bound to be at least one dissenter in the ranks?! I've tried Sea-Foam for about a year now, in four separate vehicles - at least for me the schitt just don't work. So instead of using this like a ton of other over priced crap out there and pouring it down the proverbial toilet (exhaust pipes) it's at least for me, back to the tried and true pay my dues method - fix the problems myself instead of depending on magic elixirs that don't work, while corporate America sits there laughing they're arses off at us. Nuff' said.
should say on label, ive used it before....
Carbs & the "Elixir"
Hey, how do you guys know actually when you ought to clean your carbs? I just got my first bike & am trying to learn the subtleties of the bike, & hopefully how to fix them when they break. Anyway, she idles just fine when its not too cold, but when I'm riding I feel a lack of power almost, and the engine kind of gives a little jump or kick every now and then, and then at around 3000rpm something big jumps in & I get lots of power. Should I try the SeaFoam, or take apart/clean the carbs?
If you have something broken - Seafoam is not going to fix it. Ethanol is developing a bad reputation for causing a residue build up. Seafoam will clear out that residue. It will not reset floats, fix broken O rings, dried out gaskets, or clean out a years worth of negleted gasosnot. This spring I had some poor idling and seafoam cleared it up. Since then I run a standard treatment (two consecutive tanks) through my bike about once every 3 months as preventative maintenance.
So, I did the Seafoam thing this past weekend. I used about 1oz of SeaFoam in each of my 2 cylinders. I was intending to use about 4oz (2oz each cyl) but the spraying was accumulating in my airbox, and I was getting sorta suspicious of whether or not this SeaFoam works through the air intake.
As for performance, I notice nothing. Nothing related to a "stronger" bike, or "smoother" idle/ride (it's a V-twin!), not much improvement in MPG either (maybe I got 1 or 2 mpg more, but not sure if this is due to change in riding? or due to SeaFoam?)
However, I must note that I did not leave the SeaFoam soaking in the cylinders for 10minutes as some have suggested. I merely warmed the engine up to operating temp (about 175F is good enough IMO), and started spraying SeaFoam into each intake port in the airbox with the RPM's at about 3k (to avoid hydrolock - ensures that engine is revving high enough and sparking fast enough to burn the SeaFoam).
by the way, i'm just beating this over and over in my head... what color smoke would you expect from the tailpipe if your "de-carburizing" your combustion chambers? IMO, I'd figure black, but white was all that came out... so I'm figuring maybe all I'm seeing is the SeaFoam being burnt... I will light a cap full of SeaFoam this weekend and see what kind of smoke is emitted (that is, if I can light it on fire!).
I will also re-do this SeaFoam thing, but this time allow it to "soak" a while after it's been sucked in...
... Work-In-Progress
Seafoam will put out a white smoke, you can look on you-tube for videos of people doing it to their cars. I have done it to mine it makes a nice smoke screen...
that was actually when I started wondering if those individuals doing it on YouTube were burning SeaFoam? or were they actually reducing the carbon deposits.
I'd actually like to rent a car, hopefully with little to no mileage, and test out this seafoam to see if I get the same amount of white smoke as my 1991 car that has never been SF'd.
I'd just hate to see a bunch of users of SF think that all that white smoke is necessarily a good reaction to using SF in their air intake box.
In the early 70's I worked for a gentleman that wanted ATF dribbled in his carbs once a month to decarbonize the cylinders. It will sure put put the smoke.
I just bought my "new" to me bike, lol.
Its a 2005 Katana 750, from Florida.3,700 miles, one owner.
But, it runs "rough" at idle... The deliver guy told me to go get a carb job done. (I am not mechanically incline).
Looks like I will try this instead... I am glad I found this forum.
I will post if she improves in a few days.
I used about a quarter of a bottle for my 3 gallon tank and it worked great. Not as good as a carb clean, but it'll do until winter time.
Motohorseman previously posted:
Sea Foam is composed solely of three specially blended petroleum oils each having specific functions such as lubricating, cleaning or moisture control. There are no other chemicals (not even color dyes) included in the formulation. Being of the same basic petroleum chemistry as the motor oils and gasoline you already use in your engine, Sea Foam is completely compatible with all engine components, fuels, lubricants and other additives you may have in your engine. Sea Foam will not damage gaskets or seals, and will not interact in a negative way with motor oil or fuel, or the additives used in them.
Seafoam is certainly not a miracle cure, you're right. But if your bike had been running OK and then develops a bit of a stumble, sometimes just running some Seafoam through will cure it with no adverse affects. The problem comes when someone tries to use it when the carb(s) really needs a thorough rebuild/clean. Sometimes you just got to pull 'em. Now what I strive to do is keep the carbs clean enough that I don't need any regular liquid cleaning maintenance. For my 1968 bike I use Startron as a regular additive when not at home and able to get non-ethanol fuel, but only to prevent carbon buildup, to mitigate the effects of alcohol, and to increase mileage (on my 350 it ups it from 55 to 65 mpg).
Holy crap! Mama Mia! That' s a tasty float bowl! ;)
Yep, not a job for Seafoam. lol
I've had similar and many with a chalky whitish residue, which I have assumed is aluminum oxidation from the water the alcohol has introduced via the "modern" fuel.
Back when I was getting the CB350 running I cleaned me some CV carbs so many times I could do it with my sleep in about five minutes. Now I have a pair of crispy 350As sitting and ready to go into the restoration. :) These will stay nice and clean.

Wow, those are ugly. Here is what my current project was like:

The Congress demanded a Central Bureau of Investigation (CBI) probe into allegations of police firing in West Bengal's Birbhum district, where 33 people - 27 policemen and six villagers - were injured in pitched battles early Tuesday.
"While the injured have alleged that there was police firing, the (state) government has denied it. For the truth to come out, it is essential that the matter be probed by the CBI," state Congress president Pradip Bhattacharya told media persons here.
"The home secretary says the policemen were attacked by the villagers and there was no firing. I want to ask how the villagers got injured. Is it believable that the police did not retaliate?" Bhattacharya asked.
The incident occurred at Loba village under Dubrajpur police station, about 226 km from here, while villagers were protesting the acquisition of their lands for an open-cast mine.
While the villagers alleged that police action, including firing, injured over 20 people, state Home Secretary Basudeb Bandopadhyay denied the allegation in Kolkata.
"There was no police firing. The district police superintendent informed me that the medical reports of the injured did not mention any remnant of bullets," said Bandopadhyay.
Trinamool Congress parliamentarian from Birbhum Shatabdi Roy initially said she had heard about police firing.
"Yes, I have heard that the police have fired and some villagers have been injured. Some policemen have also been injured. Industrialisation is necessary, but not at the cost of people's lives," said Roy.
But the actress-turned Trinamool MP did a volte-face soon after and said the police had not opened fire.

By Chris Harris
Robin van Persie may have left Emirates Stadium with the match ball on Saturday but he denies he was the headline act in Arsenal's win over Wigan.
The Dutch forward scored the first hat-trick of his Gunners career to see off the Latics, opening the scoring with a rasping finish in the 21st minute and adding a second just before the hour mark before completing his treble five minutes from time.
Van Persie could have had more - he missed a penalty in the second half and hit the post just afterwards. But the 27-year-old was quick to praise the rest of the team after the final whistle.
"It's very important [to score], but if you look at the first goal, I'm just doing the end bit," he said. "I think it was Alex who had the pass and Cesc had a little run to make space for me. I just hit it and scored.
"What I'm trying to say is that it's not just me who 'scored'. It's like a team effort. You have the one with the assist, the one before the assist and the one who scores and in-between you have the guy who's making the run for me.
"If you look at the second goal it's mainly because of Cesc. It was a good finish, yes, but that was the only thing I could do. He has the vision, he has the technique and he can actually do it, so that goes to him for 80 per cent.
"The last one I was a bit lucky because the goalkeeper had a hand on it. He had a great game by the way. He had five 100 per cent saves in the first half."
The return of Van Persie has certainly added something to Arsenal's attacking play and much has been made of the understanding between the Dutch star, Fabregas, Samir Nasri and Theo Walcott. But the man himself believes the entire squad is in harmony.
"It's not just us, it's everyone," he said. "We all love to play with each other. Everyone is happy to play with each other and we all enjoy our football. On the basic of the game, it's a game you should enjoy. People go out on the streets to enjoy themselves. We do that as well."Copyright 2017 The Arsenal Football Club plc.

Sign Wars: The Cluttered Landscape of Advertising

Besorgung - Lieferbarkeit unbestimmt
Mai 1996
BeschreibungThis author aims to show how corporate symbols or signs vie for attention and market share by appropriating - and quickly abandoning - diverse elements of culture to differentiate products that may in themselves be virtually indistinguishable.
PortraitRobert L. Goldman, Ph.D., is Professor of Sociology and Anthropology at Lewis and Clark College in Portland, OR. Stephen Papson, Ph.D, is Professor of Sociology at St. Lawrence University in Canton, NY.
Pressestimmen""Sign Wars" is a path-breaking analysis of contemporary advertising, a work of sustained brilliance, rich in insight and imagination, that will reward repeated readings." --John Wilson, Ph.D., Duke University, Dept of Sociology
"Goldman and Papson have performed a real service for scholars and consumers alike. Their book tells us that images, like words, can be read, understood, and judged true or false. In a world where MTV competes with CNN and New York Times headlines with Nike slogans, no lesson is more appropriate or important. "Sign Wars" is a great leap forward in making America media literate." --Randall Rothenberg, senior writer, "Esquire", and author, "Where the Suckers Moon: An Advertising Story"
"The aptly titled "Sign Wars" offers an insightful and engaging examination of some of our most familiar and pervasive images, sounds, and messages. Goldman and Papson take readers inside the logic and structure of contemporary commodity culture to show how the economic interests of transnational corporations, the culture of ad makers, and the strategies of ads themselves all work to increase the intensity and velocity of corporate struggles for our attention, identification, and loyalty to their logos and products. Most importantly, " Sign Wars" convincingly uses ads and ad culture to ponder the collective crisis of meaning in late capitalism (over issues like gender, race, community, morality, the environment, and citizenship), a crisis which they argue is increasingly expressed in terms of a commodity culture where identification with and fluency in advertising images are the markers of citizenship and participation in society. To their credit, Goldman and Papson place advertising front and center in contemporary debates about politics and culture." --Herman Gray, Ph.D., Associate Professor, University of California, Santa Cruz, author of "Watching Race: Television and the Sign of Blackness "

UFC Booking Alert: Alexander Gustafsson Gets Antonio Rogerio Nogueira Next, Ross Pearson vs. Melvin Guillard Rematch Set
(They told me I could become anything I wanted, so I became Harry Potter. / Photo via Getty)
Two big pieces of fight-booking news were announced yesterday after UFC Fight Night 30. First up, recent light-heavyweight title contender Alexander Gustafsson will face Antonio Rogerio Nogueira next. Secondly, Melvin Guillard gets another chance to "illegally attack" Ross Pearson after their fight Saturday was cut short by silly rules that are impossible to implement rationally.
Both fights will take place at a "Fight Night" event on March 8th when the UFC returns to London. Gustafsson, of course, is coming off of a very close decision loss to Jon Jones, while Nogueira is on a two fight win-streak, including his decision win over Rashad Evans earlier this year, and his TKO of Tito Ortiz way back in December 2011. Bones will face Glover Teixeira in his next bout, for some reason.
After Jones beats Teixeira and Gustafsson dispatches of Lil' Nog (at least that's what the UFC is betting on), Jones and his Swede challenger will once more lock horns. No word yet on who Daniel Cormier will get in his light heavyweight debut, yet.Read More DIGG THIS

Everyone in Bell Harbor thinks career-minded plastic surgeon Evelyn Rhoades needs a husband. Everyone, that is, except for Evelyn...sort of. Even if she did want a husband (which she doesn't...most of the time), she'd never let something as intangible as fate determine who she marries. No, if she's going to find someone to spend her life with, she'll do it scientifically: With a carefully crafted list of criteria and an Internet dating site.
But when intoxicated, law-breaking Tyler Connelly crashes into her life by way of a stolen Jet Ski, unruly emotions defy common sense. Sure, he's sexy, charming, and determined to win Evelyn's affection, but all evidence points to him being the worst possible choice. He's too young for her. Too irresponsible. Too underemployed. And, oh yeah, he's her patient.
But Tyler knows firsthand how the best-laid plans can crumble under the weight of destiny. Now all he needs to do is to teach Evelyn that, in matters of the heart, love often supersedes logic.

"A Charming Read"
This was a nicely written story. A cosy read, something you just want to relax down to with a steaming cup of coffee. I enjoyed it.
My only criticism is I found the Narrator to be a little too hard/aggressive. I just feel it could have been delivered with a 'softer' tone.
"Nice beach love story"
This was a very typical love story that happens quite often. Women often have a requirements list if qualities they want their husband to be packaged with. However that is not always true love so it was refreshing to witness these characters be ok with true love instead of the status quo
"An entertaining, funny read!"
writer has a dood sense of humour-this one is worth your time, but it started off a little slow for me. Keep at it!
"The Best Medicine _Perfect title"
Lots of meaning gestures to the readers own heart... from life experiences of any age and type. I found hope, good medicine to remember in my own life if given the chance to put it to use. 8)
I hope it brings the same warm gestures or medicine to others too.
"Was a lovely story, really enjoyed it."
Really enjoyed the book, an amazing story line. Can't wait to hear more for the same author.
"Was a Great book"
Enjoyed her narration, made the story way more enjoyable. I really like the Bell Harbor Series.
"delightful and funny story."
A story of love and personal growth. You'll laugh and be drawn to these characters as they discover a bit about themselves and what is really important to them.
"not too believable"
the story is sweet but not believable. I do enjoy the audio version. it made me smile a lot.
"Good romance but not the narrator"
The author is good. I like how she inserts a lot of humor into her characters. It is a predictable romance which is ok but the narrator is terrible. The voice she uses wants to make scream with annoyance.
This book was so funny. I thought it started a little slow. I wanted Tyler and Evie to spend more time together sooner in the story, but the book was funny. Those dates she went on were comical. The people in the town were funny. Tyler was a total sweetheart. The only character I didn't like was Hilary. She was mean. All in all, it was a good story. I will read more of her books. Don't believe the negative reviews. This book was by far the best audiobook I heard so far.
"Fun book."
This was a fun book that made me laugh out loud while driving. It's not a deep story, and I probably wont read it again and again, but I enjoyed it.
