Definition: Sulfuric acid is used in the production of fertilizers and explosives, in the purification of petroleum; in the pickling of metal; and in lead-acid batteries. Breathing sulfuric acid can result in tooth erosion and respiratory tract irritation. Exposures to large quantities at work can increase the incidence of cancers of the larynx, though such workers are often exposed to other chemicals, too. The International Agency for Research on Cancer says occupatonal exposure to inorganic acid mists can cause cancer, but pure sulfuric acid has not been classified. Source: IARC
Definition: These 15 chemicals, sometimes called polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs), are the result of incomplete combustion of organic compounds. They are found in coal tar, gasoline and diesel exhaust, and wood smoke, and are used in many industries, including steel. Studies have demonstrated that exposure to coke oven emissions caused lung and urinary cancers in workers. These chemicals are reasonably anticipated to be a human carcinogen. Source: U.S. Department of Health and Human Services
Definition: Nickel, a metal, can be combined with other metals to make coins, jewelry, and stainless steel. People working in nickel refineries or nickel-processing plants have experienced chronic bronchitis, reduced lung function, and lung and sinus cancers. EPA classifies nickel refinery dust and nickel subsulfide as human carcinogens. Source: EPA, HHS
Definition: Chromium is present in the environment in several different forms, some harmless and some harmful. Chromium 3 is an essential nutrient that helps the body process sugars, proteins and fats. Chromium 6, produced by industrial processes, can in high doses cause convulsions, kidney and liver damage, and even death. The World Health Organization, EPA and the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services have concluded that chromium 6 can cause cancer in humans.
Definition: Styrene, a liquid, is widely ued to make plastics, plastic pipes, automobile parts and rubber. Breathing high levels of styrene can affect the central nervous system, causing concentration and balance problems. Liver damage has been observed in animals exposed to styrene. The International Agency for Research on Cancer has classified styrene as as possible human carcinogen. Source: IARC (

Discussion in 'General Chevy & GM Tech Questions' started by Stonewall42, Mar 3, 2010.
What sounds better, X-pipe or H-pipe?
I think the X pipe does.
What about the straight pipe?
I'm personally not a fan of it, I like a more mellow tone, somethings that's different on the street.
There is no scientific proof making one better than the other. They both serve the same purpose, to equalize pressure and tone in each ehaust tube for dual exhaust vehicles. Without a connecting pipe (X or H) one pipe could have a higher pressure and different exhaust note than the other.
Again either one serves the same purpose but in my opnion its dumb to run a dual set up without a connection between the tubes. As you get higher mileage and different amounts of wear you could have one pipe sounding alot different than the other. Again that is just my opinion. The facts is simply that there is no proof making one better than the other.
Hmmmmmm...Having that cross pipe makes that big of a change? When I was younger,,,,lol,,,, we didnt have a cross pipe...

Developing developers
Thu, Jan 31, 2013 at 9:41 PM by Dave Winer.
I've had the privilege to work with a number of young devs over the years, and helped develop their skills. When it really clicks there's a lot of learning going on, all around. And the combination of a graybeard and young turk as a devteam has a lot of things going for it.
It's probably a lot like Mike Woodson working with Carmelo or Ray Felton or JR Smith. Only the older programmer can still do it, if the mind is willing. It's like directing movies as well as basketball.
I know
who loves both basketball and movies will understand this. :-)
BTW, when NJ came to visit in December, I knew she loved movies, but I had no idea about basketball. How did
In tech, however -- we set those young talented people out to conquer the world on their own. Their coaches, unlike basketball players, aren't developers. So they don't know what to tell them.
No wonder we make so little progress from generation to generation.
I'd really like to change this.

RENTALS in Buderim and surrounding suburbs are in huge demand, with dozens of hopefuls applying for a single property.
Last week 30 groups of people inspected a three-bedroom family home close to local schools and the Sunshine Motorway, all of whom took applications home with them.
Real Estate Institute of Queensland Sunshine Coast zone chairman and Ray White Buderim salesperson Lloyd Edwards said the situation had been the same for several years, as more families looked to live in the educational precinct of the region.
"The number one driver is the schools," he said.
"We're close to the beach, but we're a mountain and there is a lovely sense of village.
"There are an increasing amount of families in Buderim and in growth areas like Sippy Downs and Brightwater."
Mr Edwards said the current rental vacancy rate was making the market "very tight".
"The general consensus is considered that a 4% vacancy rate is considered a fair market place," he said.
"When it drops below that, the market is weighted towards the owner as the number of applicants per property goes up.
"For at least three to four years it (the vacancy rate) has been at 2%."
Mr Edwards said the vacancy rate need not be confused with how many properties were available for rent on the market.
He said most of the rentals went before they became vacant, which meant before the lease finished they had people set up to move in.
"The vacancy rate is when a house is physically empty.
"Of our list with enquiries (at Ray White Buderim) there's 22 people looking at three possible units, and 157 people looking at a possible 14 houses."
Mr Edwards said with about 10,000 lots in Buderim, the area was at 95% development capacity, which meant there were very few areas left to grow.
Insite Realty, based in Sippy Downs, currently had no vacancies of the 600 rentals the business took care of.
Senior property manager Cheryl Howlett said although the properties were dispersed from Gympie to Bribie Island, a lot of them were in Sippy Downs.

Photo Gallery: Wilson High School Arts Showcase
Sights and sounds filled Wilson High School last night during an arts showcase. Students proudly displayed their works of art - whether they were spoken, sung, written or drawn.
In fact, the arts took over much of the Hacienda Heights campus for three hours of public performances and displays. Families were welcome to walk around the different venues, drawing in the arts.
The Wildcat jazz band certainly got things humming in the gym. The hot musicians warmed up the crowds for the dance and cheer squads waiting to perform.
The junior varsity color squad filled the gym with high-flying flags and precision maneuvers. The crowd cheered as they tossed their spinning rifles high in the air.
The dance team followed with their bright red costumes. The young women and sole young man really showed off their dance moves, hips gyrating to the music.
The all-male hip-hop group proved to be a fan favorite, twisting and turning in amazing ways. A couple performers stood out even more with their jumps and turns.
The school choir cooled things down with their sweet music.
Of course, it wasn't all dance and music. The Den became an art studio, proudly displaying much of the students' fine works of art.
"I teach photography here and we wanted to display some of my students great photos," said teacher Daniel Mackey. "Some of the photos won awards at the Pomona Valley Art Show last week."
Photos such as "Disney Daze" by senior Maya Bascon looked like old-fashioned postcards. Mackey explained the special effect was an HDR image - that's high dynamic range photos to the rest of us.
The helpful instructor explained that HDR allows incredible detail by taking multiple pictures at different exposure levels and then assembling them to produce an amazing image.
Senior Javier Diaz offered an intriguing view of the National Bank of Whittier through the HDR technique. The building was the site of Richard M. Nixon's first law office.
Senior Rosario Lopez used another technique to turn a photo of nearby homes into "A Doll's House." The houses looked like an incredible miniature model.
Retired teacher Patricia Nicholson was enjoying some of the young artists' drawings nearby. The gallery was organized by art teacher Kelly Hernandez.
"I taught math and Spanish at Wilson for 40 years, so I still like to drop by to see the students' work," Nicholson said. "And I get to catch up with teachers that I used to work with."
Some of the work was stunning, such as the charcoal portrait of Cesar Chavez by Ashley Bugarin; "Ring Girl," a medium pen work by sophomore Breanne Payan; and "Baby in Hand" done in pencil by freshman Lisa Li.
Students put their thoughts down on paper in another section of the exhibit.
"I asked them to think of the stereotypes that they face every day," Mackey said. "Then I had them take a picture of themselves as that stereotype and another as the way they see themselves."
Many were poignant reminders that society still pegs people by race and culture. The students insisted that these general stereotypes no longer apply.
"People only view Hispanics as maids or are very good at cleaning and that's their only job. But we can do anything we set our minds to," wrote Michael Gonzalez.
In one photo, Michael sits surrounded by cleaning products, buckets and brooms. Another pictures a smiling student ready to make his mark on the world.
Other visitors were drawn to drama demonstrations in the Little Theater. But everyone had a good time enjoying the arts.

New Recipe: Turkey Sausage Sweet Potato Hash
This Turkey Sausage Sweet Potato Hash is one of my favorite winter meals. I have to stop myself from filling my plate a second time! The leftovers are just as good re-warmed, so I make a huge batch and it lasts for several days in the fridge.
Remember my favorite turkey breakfast sausage recipe? Well, this Hash is that sausage, tossed with roasted sweet potatoes and brussels sprouts. Add some chopped apple in the spicy sausage recipe and this dish is just one amazing sweet and spicy hash. Even better, it's healthy and feeds a crowd!
The inspiration for this combination of ingredients came from my friend Nichelle, who served this for a New Year's Day brunch at her house in 2012. A big bowl of this Turkey Hash fed both our families, 13 people in all. I begged her to write down a recipe for me. She insisted that she just threw some things together and "there isn't really a recipe..." but I knew I didn't want to forget such a tasty meal.
I buy all the ingredients at Costco. I usually make a double batch, which uses a 2-pound bag of brussels sprouts, 4 pounds of sweet potatoes, and a lot of ground turkey.
If you like sweet and spicy, you'll love Turkey Sausage Sweet Potato Hash!
Looks yum!
This looks yummy, I can't wait to give it a go! Also congratulations on your latest beautiful baby!

Ceramic and band heaters are a bit expensive compared to a wire coil heater, but the benefits they offer are great.

Earlier this week I posted an item about all the Easter eggs hidden in the new "Star Trek" film, including the blink-or-you'll-miss-it appearance of RD-D2.
In passing I mentioned the film also makes use of the number 47, and I wrote that it was a trademark of the director J. J. Abrams. In point of fact, it is a "Star Trek" trademark, according to this reader.
Your comment concerning the easter egg, no. 47, attributing the appearance to the number is not quite accurate.You see, it was Joe Menosky who began the tradition of imbedding the number 47 in all Star Trek episodes.There is an entire worldwide organization dedicated to all things 47 as it was once proved that all numbers equal 47.Bear with me. I'm not a nutcase.Below, you will find links to websites offering proof of the above and so much more.After which, you will see 47 everywhere.Begin with The 47 Society: http://www.47.net/47society/Then travel to 1964 Pomona College: http://www.47.net/47society/Finally, Brannan Brag's letter explaining Joe Minosky's 47.

Boks can't repeat the full Nelson, says Jones
Page Tools

Wallabies coach Eddie Jones has questioned the Springboks' ability to rise to the occasion tomorrow without the same emotional input from revered former president Nelson Mandela.
The South Africans played out of their skins in last Saturday's Test in Johannesburg, winning the Mandela Challenge 33-20. There was a stirring pre-match presentation to the former political prisoner, on the occasion of his 87th birthday. That scenario will not be repeated in Pretoria for the Tri-Nations opener.
"There's got to be a question as to whether South Africa can replicate that without the stimulus they had last week," Jones said.
Australia's pre-game preparation was disrupted last week. "We went back from the warm-up and couldn't get into our dressing room because of the fact Mr Mandela was being presented with a Springbok cap," Jones said.
"We are thinking of getting John Howard over to Perth and standing him on the door of the dressing room and presenting him with George (Gregan's) jumper," he joked.
The Springboks have dropped Ricky Januarie for the more experienced Fourie du Preez at half-back, while Jacques Cronje returns as No .8 and tighthead prop C.J. van der Linde replaces Eddie Andrews.
Jones has selected John Roe, keeping Phil Waugh on the bench, to maximise height in the lineout. "We just believed Roey's lineout work, his running work and his general work-rate will give us the best balance to the team."
Meanwhile, disgraced Matt Henjak, who was expelled from the tour after a nightclub incident, arrived back in Sydney yesterday denying he had a drinking problem and vowing to regain his place.
"I definitely don't have a drinking problem," Henjak said. "There was one incident and I've been dealt with accordingly, and I'll be back from this, for sure."

Tiny electronic sensors and devices that can be implanted in the body and then dissolve almost without a trace are getting closer to reality.
Scientists have tested several biodegradable materials, including DNA, proteins and metals, for making transient electronics. Now one team, reporting in the journal ACS Applied Materials & Interfaces, has taken another step toward this goal. They created a dissolvable device component out of egg proteins, magnesium and tungsten.
Transient electronics have many potential applications from localized drug delivery to pollution monitoring. To explore these possibilities, scientists have been working with an array of natural materials to test how well they perform in electronic devices and whether they might cause side effects or damage when implanted. Unlike conventional electronics that contribute to a growing amount of harmful waste, dissolvable devices are designed to be compatible with the environment.

It is possible to leave the nose apparently right using fillers to increase one of sides? If yes, how does it work? These fillers are permanent? And this procedure is not risky?
Fix Crooked Nose?
Doctor Answers 1
It Is Possible To Correct Crooked Nose with Fillers
Pictures would be helpful (and obviously an in-person office consultation would be even better), but to answer your question, it is possible to correct certain types of crooked noses with injectable fillers. We refer to this as the non-surgical rhinoplasty. In our practice, we use liquid injectable silicone which is an excellent filler for this because it is incredibly precise and it is permanent. Injecting fillers into the nose for cosmetic correction is not risky in my opinion when done by an experienced, board-certified physician. Click on the link below to review before and after photos of non-surgical rhinoplasties done with silicone.

Oily characters and sleazy deals tarnish the UN
Page Tools
The real shame of the Iraq oil-for-food scandal is the harm it is doing to the UN, writes Tony Parkinson.
As each layer is peeled back, the Iraq oil-for-food scandal reveals itself as global politics at its grubbiest and most decadent. As of today, United Nations Secretary-General Kofi Annan and his predecessor Boutros Boutros-Ghali face allegations that family members prospered from the scheme.
The former UN chief of the oil-for-food program, Benon Sevan, has been suspended, and is at risk of having his diplomatic immunity withdrawn. After the first interim report of a UN-appointed inquiry led by former chief of the US Federal Reserve, Paul Volcker, at least one other high-ranking official at UN headquarters is also facing disciplinary action.
This would be bad enough - if it were the worst of it. But the investigations into this multibillion-dollar worldwide web of corrupt oil deals with Saddam Hussein's regime won't end there. As Annan's new chief-of-staff, Mark Malloch Brown, told the media, somewhat ominously: "This story is much bigger than the UN."
And so it is. The 220-page interim report of the Volcker inquiry, released at the weekend, opens merely another window on this scandal.
A range of US congressional committees, federal grand juries and the office of the New York District Attorney are conducting parallel inquiries. The heat is on the unsavoury cast of profiteers and parasites behind an elaborate chain of nefarious business networks set up to exploit the scheme.
The money trail winds from Baghdad through Geneva, Liechtenstein, Monaco, New York, Paris, Beirut and Cairo. Prosecutors are exploring the involvement of killers, tax cheats, arms traders and embezzlers in a multinational sanction-busting exercise.
The great scandal, perhaps, is that political agendas in the Iraq debate were never quite what they seemed."
As investigations proceed, the world will learn much more of this sleazy underbelly to the political debate over the fate of Iraq. One of the biggest questions left unanswered is this: were the shadowy middlemen involved in this gigantic scam helped by high-level political connections? If so, who knew what, and when did they know it?
Although much controversy has centred on whether Kofi Annan's son, Kojo, benefited from a consultancy with an oil-for-food contractor, the most dramatic outcome of the first Volcker report is to bring into the spotlight the role of the Egyptian diplomat Boutros-Ghali.
The oil-for-food program was launched in May 1996 after intensive lobbying of the UN Security Council about the devastating impact on ordinary Iraqi people of the economic sanctions imposed on Saddam's regime. Under the deal, Iraq was permitted to export its oil under controlled conditions; in return, it could import humanitarian supplies.
Boutros-Ghali, as UN secretary-general at the time, had been a leading advocate of winding back the sanctions regime. An inveterate critic of US policy on the Middle East, then and since, he also had prime responsibility for negotiations with Saddam Hussein.
The former UN chief had powerful friends in his camp. One of them was French President Jacques Chirac, whom Boutros-Ghali is reported to have met on January 12 and March 21, 1996, to discuss the progress of the oil-for-food negotiations.
As the Volcker inquiry notes, the final shape of the deal Boutros-Ghali negotiated with Iraq was to prove contentious: "Many argue that this agreement contained the seeds of much of what went wrong . . . its provisions left the Iraqi authorities very substantial discretion."
It also left Boutros-Ghali with substantial discretion to decide which companies would manage key elements of the program. The Volcker inquiry found Boutros-Ghali cast aside the advice of UN officials arguing for a competitive bidding process. Perhaps the most curious departure from protocol was the selection of Banque Nationale de Paris (later BNP Paribas) to run the oil revenue accounts. These accounts, ultimately worth $US64 billion, have since earned the bank more than $US700 million in fees.
According to the Volcker report, the decision to give BNP the nod was taken by Boutros-Ghali, at the insistence of Saddam's regime, despite the French bank not having made it onto a shortlist of 16 major international financial organisations compiled by the UN Treasury. Questioned by the inquiry, Boutros-Ghali called it a "political decision".
Not long after the deal was struck, Boutros-Ghali left the UN in high dudgeon. The US and Britain moved to deny him a two-year extension, and switched their support to Annan. Chirac objected strenuously but lost the battle. He soon appointed his fallen comrade an unofficial adviser on the Middle East. Boutros-Ghali also became secretary of the Francophone Group of Nations, which defends French culture and influence.
That might have been the last we heard of him. But, two years later the plot thickened.
In June 1998 an Egyptian businessman, Fakhry Abdelnour, wrote to Iraq's State Oil Marketing Organisation expressing interest in buying crude oil. Abdelnour was touting for business for his Panamanian-registered trading company, African Middle East Petroleum. There was no immediate reply from Iraqi officials.
Then came a series of phone conversations between Abdelnour, another Egyptian business figure, Fred Nadler, and the office of Benon Sevan at the UN in New York. These calls did not come out of nowhere. Abdelnour is a cousin, and Nadler a brother-in-law, of Sevan's former boss, Boutros-Ghali.
Subsequently, according to the Volcker inquiry, Sevan solicited on behalf of AMEP vouchers from Saddam's regime for several million barrels of oil, worth $US1.5 billion. Asked to explain cash payments of $US160,000 that turned up in his personal bank accounts, Sevan claimed these were gifts from an old aunt in Cyprus.
Volcker didn't buy it. His report accuses Sevan of a grave conflict of interest, which had the effect of severely impugning the UN's reputation.
As for Boutros-Ghali, he says he cannot be held accountable for the conduct of family members, and dismisses as "silly" the focus on his role. This response reeks of cynicism.
The great shame of this saga is that the flag of the UN was misappropriated to serve as cover for a sleazy network of hard-core predators bent on gouging illegal profits of many billions of dollars out of the misery of the Iraqi people. The great scandal, perhaps, is that political agendas in the Iraq debate were never quite what they seemed.

A blend of 70% Grenache, 20% Syrah, and a bit of Carignane and Mourvedre, this Cotes du Rhone Villages dramatically outclasses its meager price tag. Fruit-forward and very lush, this simply-produced wine lacks a ton of complexity but is filled with plum notes and easygoing tannins. The finish is tart and slightly herbal, and very well balanced. This simply tastes like an expensive wine.

My Mom is my hero, my Daddy is my knight in shining armor, and I love my three little sisters to the moon and back.

"Code of Best Practices in Fair Use for Poetry" Released
CHICAGO — The Poetry Foundation, publisher of Poetry magazine, is pleased to announce the publication of "Code of Best Practices in Fair Use for Poetry." The code, which aims to better facilitate poetic innovation and distribution by both clarifying fair use and anticipating potential clearance issues, was facilitated by Katharine Coles of the Harriet Monroe Poetry Institute, Patricia Aufderheide and Peter Jaszi of American University, and Jennifer Urban of the University of California, Berkeley School of Law.
Devised specifically by and for the poetry community, this best practices code will serve as a guide to reasonable and appropriate uses of copyrighted materials in new and old media. The document instructs poets, teachers, scholars, and others about the opportunities and limitations of fair use for assistance in preventing permissions conflicts. It is available for free download at www.poetryfoundation.org/fairuse and www.centerforsocialmedia.org/fair-use.
"This document," says project advisor Lewis Hyde, "brings wonderful clarity to the otherwise opaque world of poetry permissions. It is a useful tool that should serve poets, critics, and publishers alike." It also brings poets and poetry into the larger ongoing discussion about intellectual property and fair use. Like scholars, musicians, and other artists, poets are concerned both about protecting ownership of their work and about their ability to build on the works of others. "Anxiety and confusion over these issues are actually inhibiting both creative and scholarly work," says the inaugural director of the Harriet Monroe Poetry Institute, Katharine Coles. "There is actually significant consensus within the community over what constitutes fair use in a number of different situations. We hope this document will help poets, scholars, and teachers feel more confident in their exercise of fair use rights."
Poets and writers will find the free document a useful reference when confronted with questions about how to present new work derived from "found" material, such as erasures; how websites should go about sharing poetry online; and whether or not a performance of a poet's work is permissible. Other issues, such as epigraphs, quotations in criticism, and cases of parody or satire, are also addressed in the document.
The document joins other codes—including those directed at the documentary filmmaking community and online video creators—on the Center for Social Media's website at American University. "It is inspiring to see such a prestigious creative community assert their fair use rights," says CSM director Patricia Aufderheide. Legal scholar Peter Jaszi, at the Washington College of Law at American University, notes: "The path to making the most of fair use in poetry has never looked so straightforward." Jennifer Urban, of the University of California, Berkeley School of Law, says, "Poets' thoughtful contribution to the family of community-based best practices is beneficial to us all."
The code provides documentation of common understanding about best practices in fair use according to the poetry community and as supported by legal analysis. Work on this document resulted from research that the Harriet Monroe Poetry Institute's working group did on copyright and fair use for its publication Poetry and New Media: A Users' Guide, which was released in February 2010 and is also available for free download at www.poetryfoundation.org/newmediaproject.
Katharine Coles and Lewis Hyde are available for interviews about this project. Please call 312.799.8016 to schedule a time to speak with them.

I brought a feral kitten home. Would a distended belly mean worms?
She is about 4-5 weeks and was fed in the wild. She eats hard food and occasionally I give her wet food. She is very energetic and sociable already, but her belly isbig. Is this probably just her eating alot?

To add to Oscar's answer, depending on the worm, you might have to dump the litter bag every time you clean to make sure the pests stay gone.
Also, if you have other cats in the home, make sure you keep your kitten quarantined from them until she gets a clean bill of health, and do not allow the other cats to use her litter box while she still has worms.
The vet can give you more specific instructions depending on what s/he finds once you take her in to be seen. At her age and being a motherless kitten, it is essential for you to do so asap.
BTW, have you considered feeding her KMR, even if she does eat dry food? Her tummy might be at that tender age where it is not absorbing that food well, so that's another possibility for that big belly (but again: have vet rule other stuff out).

I would guess that you are right about the worms, given her age and her exposure to the great outdoors. A kitten's belly can be a little pudgy, but should never be distended, nor should it be noticeably larger than the rest of her, proportionally speaking.
Member 631733 answered on 5/11/08. Helpful? / 0
It could be worms, it could be norrmal kitty belly, it could mean FIP (unlikely do to the energy level). You need to get this cat into a vet to have it examined. Also most kitties are with their mothers until at least 6-8 weeks and therefore don't usually receive vaccines until 8 weeks but since this kitty is already away form it's mom, it's going to need vaccines sooner, likely now because it's maternal antibodies are wearing off at this point. Please schedule an appointment with your vet. You should also have kitty tested for FeLV/FIV since she was a stray and there's no telling what mom may have been a carrier for.

My sweet Oscar was a feral kitten too and yes, it's probably worms. Kittens are wormy at first anyway, but living out in the great wild unknown probably didn't help anything.
Deworming is very easy and very inexpensive. They'll just give your little one a dose of what our vet called the "kitty cat milkshake." It's thick and sweet and Oscar J. actually liked it. Once she gets the dewormer, don't be surprised to see the worms coming out in her feces. That's normal and the desired result. Just be extra sure that you wash your hands very carefully every time you clean her litter.

It'll take forever before prices normalize, if they ever do. Much like our federal government, once the free market gets something, they rarely give it back. The current prices may flatten out and the used market won't support the crazy price gouging that is currently happening, but the new market is going to be high for a long while.

it would end up looking something like this.
red = coupler
blue = steel
orange = coolant filler neck
I'll need to get the exact measurements

When it comes to driving in the state of Texas, there are some important facts to keep in mind. The first is that you need to have basic 30/60/25 liability insurance. The second is that it is a good idea to have more than just basic liability in the state of Texas. The reason being is that even though around 80% of the state complies with at least the 30/60/25 liability, there are still millions of uninsured and underinsured drivers on the road. For people who are leasing, most finance companies require more than liability because they want to ensure the vehicle is fully covered if anything should happen. The 25 in the liability stands for only $25,000 in damage coverage. For new cars that cost more than $25,000, getting into a wreck that totals the vehicle implies that there will a large sum left unpaid by the insurance company. If you have a $35,000 truck and its gets totaled, the minimal liability will only pay up to $25,000 and for many companies it would be a fight to get that. The following is a breakdown of different coverage options and what you should consider when purchasing your next insurance plan from someone like http://texasinsurancequotes.us/texas-auto-insurance/.
To help cover the difference, many drivers opt for more coverage.
The different levels of Texas auto insurance are similar to options in most states. Drivers can elect to get: Comprehensive, collision, UM/UIM, Roadside, and Repair. Each of these can offer Texas drivers a more complete sense of coverage and ensure that they are prepared for any manner of accident.
Collision : With collision coverage you will be aiming to cover any additional damages your vehicle sustains in an accident regardless of who was at fault. This is normally calculated by taking the value of the car in the collision, subtracting the driver's deductible to get the amount they will pay out to the policy holder. In the event the Vehicle needs to be replaced, either in part or in its entirety, this can soften the finial impact involved. The deductible the policy holder is willing to pay will have a large impact on how much of a additional cost in incurred.
Comprehensive: If a vehicle sustains damage due to anything outside of a collision with another object Comprehensive coverage will come into play. In Texas Comprehensive commonly includes various kinds of inclement weather damage. A examples of this would be damage to the body due to hail or flying debris, or air born objects due to the high winds found in hurricanes or tropical storms breaking windows while the vehicle is at rest. In other words any time you are not in the vehicle and something happens to your vehicle comprehensive coverage will normally pay for the majority if the the totality of the repair costs.
Towing, labor, rental, and roadside Insurance : Most Insurance companies offer coverage for a variety of services that are do not involve direct damage as add on to their normal protection bundles. The majority of minor repairs and even some major repairs would be covered under labor. If the vehicle breaks down on the road and needs assistance it would be covered under roadside assistance and towing if necessary. Also while you are with out a vehicle the rental coverage will help pay for the cost of renting a vehicle for your transportation needs. If the insurance dose not cover it, or if the price is to high, you can normally get similar services from other companies such as AAA.
Medical payments and Personal Injury Protection(PIP): These types of coverage are meant to cover the large amount of costs that can be required for the human element of a accident such as medical bills, cost of care while recovering, and in unfortunate cases the need for funerals. PIP will cover around 80% things like additional care or any lost wages that might be incurred. In the case of far more serious injuries or Death these medical payment coverage can lessen the sometime crippling finical hit a uninsured driver would take, which would normally be in at least the 10s of thousands. This also applies for family member or any other passengers who where in the vehicle that is covered under this plan.
Uninsured/underinsured motorist (UM/UIM): This type of insurance can help cover your vehicle in the event that the driver has failed to obtain proper coverage. This is more common then one would think with roughly 20% of people in Texas failing to meet the state requirements. In some places such as in and around Dallas this can be as high as 1 out of 6 drivers not having enough insurance to cover a accident. The majority of Texas auto Insurances will offer this kind of coverage as an option just remember to ask.

P4: The Golden is a game from last year (and a port at that, from a game in a platform that was massively owned), SS is good but MH (even Freedom Unite) is a hell of a lot better. There are good games, but they are far and in between. The remainder of the year doesn't look terrible: Muramasa: Rebirth (out now), Dragon's Crown in August (even if it's multiplatform), KZ: Mercenary, Tearaway, Ys: Celceta and Valhalla Knights 3 in September / October. I'd count FFX: HD but that's just a port from a game on a platform most everybody owned (unlike the Wii), nothing new there. This year has been better than last one with releases, it's just that the PSV still hasn't consolidated its identity and hasn't gotten a game that may make everybody understand the potential within the hardware~.
Hopefully Tearaway may do the trick. I'm also hoping Sony isn't bluffing and that at Gamescon the PSV will indeed be the protagonist (for a change) and that, for God's sake, Sony won't insist in that indies are all it take to avoid the flop~.
Mm. is amazing! I am sure they will blow us away with an amazing game!

In the final week of the regular season, Ladainain Tomlinson was voted by the fans as the FedEx Ground player of the week. LT has won the crap out of this award over the past few years, but he only won it once this year. Scoring three touchdowns to help your team win the division on the national stage will certainly help garner votes from fantasy football fans across the country.
The NFL also announced that Philip Rivers is the AFC's Player Of The Month:
Rivers led the Chargers to a 4-0 record in December as San Diego captured its third consecutive AFC West title and became the first team to reach the playoffs after a 4-8 start. For the month, Rivers completed 80 of 121 passes (66.1 percent) for 1,054 yards with a NFL-high 11 touchdowns versus one interception and a 120.3 passer rating. In Week 15 against Kansas City (12/14), Rivers was named AFC Offensive Player of the Week after directing a Chargers' fourth quarter-rally for a 22-21 win. In the fourth quarter against the Chiefs, Rivers completed 18 of 24 passes (75.0 percent) for 190 yards with two touchdowns and a 125.3 passer rating. Two weeks later against Denver in a must-win scenario to reach the playoffs, Rivers posted a 141.0 passer rating and registered two or more touchdown passes for the fourth time in December as the Chargers defeated the Broncos 52-21. The veteran signal caller recorded a NFL-high 105.5 passer rating this season and tied for a league-best 34 touchdowns (Saints, DREW BREES).
In his fifth season from North Carolina State, this is Rivers' first career Player of the Month Award. He is the first Chargers player to win Offensive Player of the Month since LA DAINIAN TOMLINSON in 2006 (November). Rivers joins STAN HUMPHRIES (October of 1992 and September of 1994) as the second San Diego quarterback to win the award.
Unfortunately for Rivers, no one outside of San Diego is seriously considering him an MVP candidate. Obviously I've been making my case for him for weeks, but almost the entire staff of writers at NFL.com has their votes in for Peyton Manning. While Manning is certainly deserving of another MVP award, I wouldn't go as far as to say that he is head and shoulders above Philip Rivers.
The Colts defense is generally acknowledged as being very good, and they have not had to overcome such drastic coaching changes like those in San Diego. But don't tell that to the mainstream media; Peyton Manning is the poster boy for the National Football league, appearing in more TV commercials than any other player in the league. Rivers on the other hand has gained a reputation of being cocky, abrasive, whiny, and a bit of a loudmouth. Rivers has my vote for MVP because without him, the Chargers would not be in the position they are in right now. He's made the people around him better, especially Vincent Jackson. And with the defense struggling and without a solid running game, Rivers had to carry the Chargers on his back just to get them to 8-8. Rivers has better numbers than anyone in the league and if he doesn't win the MVP this year it'll be a real shame because these types of numbers are going to be hard to reproduce in future seasons...

Have you upped the ante on "beauty" products? Have you become high maintenance without even realising it?
I'm starting to wonder if I have. The other night, as I was getting into bed, I asked my wife if she'd seen my "man night moisturiser". I hadn't and I'd been looking for it because I needed it.
If she was a different sort of woman she might have said, "it's with your man night serum and your man night eye cream". I would not have detected any facetiousness because I would have found this information useful. You see, I do actually use man serum and man eye cream.
Instead, she simply laughed. At me.
How did this happen? I could take the obvious escape route and blame this blog, but to be honest I've been using "male grooming" products for quite a while. If you could see my face, you would agree it's been worth it. Beautiful, me.
Which leads me to wonder what now is my bare minimum. What else can I no longer do without? Foot cream? Use it every morning before I put on my socks and the feet are as soft as a baby's. Styling paste? Hair's never looked better. Cleanser? Softens the whiskers before the daily shave.
Somehow all these non-essentials have become essential. When I travel anywhere I need the large wash bag.
But if I was to go camping this summer - and I'd like to - I like to think that my wash bag would comprise toothpaste and brush, shampoo and sunscreen. I like to envisage myself doing without floss and conditioner and, well, soap - let alone my man moisturiser that hydrates, polishes and refreshes my complexion.
But I do wonder how well I'd cope.
Gents, what handsomeness products (it's better than calling them beauty products) can't you live without?

Here, you can read more about how the experts can be help you to make your relationship with your partner stronger.
Get clear idea about your desires
It is a surprising fact that there are many women, who do not really recognize what they desire from their romantic spouse. They only know that they wish a guy, who is polite and bighearted. However, beyond these general qualities or attributes, they are not sure about anything. So, the clarity about the qualities that is desired by a woman is very significant. Without an apparent idea about the dream man, one can never find the best partner in life. It is one of the main areas on which a dating advice giver focuses greatly.
What helps in dating after forty?
It is no doubt that knowledge has a great role in building a career. However, the fact is that you have to be well-informed also about your dating. You should know what can be expected or what may be logical or what needs to be avoided.
Your dating advisor will clear up all your uncertainties. Working with the experts, you can find the newest dating policies or insights, which reduce heart-breaking blunders.
Get aid with recognizing men
The toughest part in any love relationship is perhaps to understand the men. Often, women notice that men speak about a thing and deal with other things. Again, they also see that men seem to be interested on one thing, while follow the other. These matters become very infuriating to women. Some women try to get suggestions from their girlfriends. But, it will never be helpful. Rather, get the recommendations from the experts.
So, find the guide for making your relationship more effective.

While this isn't always a bad thing, it can be annoying if such updates begin to clog your news feed and that of your friends. Also, not all of us want to broadcast everything we do online and would like our reading or listening habits to be private (especially if the latter happens to be cheesy music).If you fall into either of these categories, then you'd be glad to know that there's a way to removing these automatic updates from your profile forever, especially if you like the app and prefer not to remove it.First of all, when you install an app, you're usually asked for permission for the app to access your basic information. However, some apps ask for further details such as the one for Aviary Image Editor shown here.When you first select an app to install onto timeline, the majority of them will ask this question. Some will allow you the option of skipping such a section, while others will require you to include it before you proceed. If the latter applies, you can select it and later prevent the app from posting items.Once you've installed the app, you need to go onto your privacy setting, located on the top right hand side of your page. Once in, you will see the third option 'Apps and websites' located below. When you select 'edit settings' and go into apps, you're presented with every app you've downloaded since joining Facebook.For this task in particular, select 'edit' for the app you interested in and you will be presented with one of two options, depending on the app in question: either the option to remove app activity from your timeline, or the option to post to Facebook as you. Removing either will stop your friends from getting updates about your activity and will spend less time clogging up your news feed.It's a good idea to check out the app section in your privacy setting every now and again as the tendency to download apps only to forget about them is quite high. This way, you can get rid of unwanted apps from months ago that still have access to your personal information, and with apps set to become a greater part of our Facebook activity, it pays to have a more stringent grasp on exactly which apps can access your profile.

In Study 1, 292 undergraduates rated 126 toys as to whether they were suitable for boys, girls, or both. From these ratings, we established five categories of toys: strongly masculine, moderately masculine, neutral, moderately feminine, and strongly feminine. Using these categories, we constructed four toysets; each consisted of 15 toys, three from each category. In Study 2, 706 undergraduates individually rated the toys from one of the toysets on 26 scales that measured the toys' characteristics. We found that girls' toys were associated with physical attractiveness, nurturance, and domestic skill, whereas boys' toys were rated as violent, competitive, exciting, and somewhat dangerous. The toys rated as most likely to be educational and to develop children's physical, cognitive, artistic, and other skills were typically rated as neutral or moderately masculine. We conclude that strongly gender-typed toys appear to be less supportive of optimal development than neutral or moderately gender-typed toys.
