Take a Stroll Through The Rocks, Sydney
June 18th, 2014 | Meriton Apartments
On a beautiful blue-sky day in Sydney, one of the best things to do is wander through The Rocks. Walk along the cobblestone paths and get lost in the narrow lane ways that lead you through the area's iconic markets, restaurants and history.
The Rocks Markets
You'll often turn a corner and find yourself suddenly among throngs of people as they wander through the Rock's famous markets on the weekends between 10am and 5pm. These have a uniquely Australian twist and you'll find handmade leather bags, bound diaries, jewelry made from the antique innards of clocks, boutique clothing and one of a kind sculptures from local artists. Most days there are also street artists showing off their skills and you can watch them spray paint stunning space scenes or blow glass right in front of you. The markets twist and turn along Playfair Street, George street and Jack Mundey Place, and on Fridays these streets play host to The Rocks Foodies Market between 9am and 3pm.
Things to Do
If you feel like getting active there are a plethora of things to do in The Rocks. Bass & Flinders cruises leave from the harbour, as do the adrenaline-pumping jet boat tours. Or to see The Rocks in a new way, take a Bonza bike tour or get a bird's eye view from the harbour bridge with their famous bridge climbs. If you'd like a more relaxed day then visit the Museum of Contemporary Art, the Aboriginal Art Galleries or S.H. Ervin Gallery up on Observatory Hill. For some history you can check out Cadman's Cottage that was built in 1816 or take a look at the Susannah Place Museum, a terrace of four houses that was first built in 1844 and has since seen hundreds of families live and work there, leaving a fascinating history behind them.
As the sun sets The Rocks lights up and the vibe changes with diners and clubbers filling the streets. Restaurants can take the form of convict-carved sandstone buildings, harborside lofts with stunning views, 42-storey high skyscrapers or a tiny nook tucked away up hidden stairs. Some well known favourites include:
- Ananas Bar & Brasserie on Argyle Street that was awarded One Chefs Hat this year in The SMH Good Food Guide 2014 for its fine French and Mediterranean cuisine.
- The fun German-themed Lowenbrau where you can get litre steins, warm bread pretzels and all the schnitzels you could want while you listen to live German folk music.
- World-Class Quay restaurant run by Peter Gilmore, which has been awarded three Chef Hats between 2007 and 2014 in the The SMH Good Food Guide.
- For a night out The Argyle is the place to be with open cobblestone courtyards, funky lounges and a killer dance floor with the DJ suspended above in a clear box.

Feb. 10, 2013
Site: Tampa, Fla. (USF Softball Stadium)
Event: USF Tournament
Score: #15 Michigan 4, Samford 0
Records: U-M (3-1), Samford (2-2)
Next U-M Event: Saturday, Feb. 16 -- vs. Toledo - FAU Kickoff Classic (Boca Raton, Fla.), 11 a.m.
TAMPA, Fla. -- Sophomore Sara Driesenga (Hudsonville, Mich./Hudsonville) turned in a five-strikeout, complete-game shutout to carry the University of Michigan softball team (No. 15 USA Today/NFCA, No. 13 ESPN/USA Softball) to a 4-0 victory over the Samford Bulldogs today (Sunday, Feb. 10) at the USF Tournament held at USF Softball Stadium.
Driesenga did not walk a batter and scattered six hits over seven innings. The Maize and Blue defense provided good support behind her. In the second inning in scoreless game, and with a Samford runner at first, senior third baseman Amy Knapp (St. Joseph, Mich./Lakeshore) fielded a high chopper and cut down the lead runner at second with a strong throw to prevent her from moving into scoring position.
The Wolverines made two fine defensive plays in the fifth while protecting a one-run lead. Freshman shortstop Sierra Romero (Murrieta, Calif./Vista Murrieta) charged a short hopper and just beat the runner to first with a precise toss. When Samford did put a runner on with a single in the fifth, junior catcher Caitlin Blanchard (Petersburg, Mich./Summerfield) threw her out with a few feet to spare on an attempted steal.
The Michigan offense collected nine hits on the day, led by Driesenga, Blanchard and Knapp, who each had two hits and one run batted in.
Romero and Driesenga led off the fourth inning with back-to-back singles. Then with one out, Blanchard ripped a hot shot past the first baseman into rightfield. Romero scored to put Michigan up 1-0.
Michigan used two hits, a sacrifice and an error to pad the lead by two more runs in the fifth inning. Knapp started the inning with a single, followed by a sacrifice from junior Lyndsay Doyle (Channahon, Ill./Minooka Community). The Samford shortstop could not handle a ground ball from junior Nicole Sappingfield (Norco, Calif./Norco), putting runners on first and third. Romero followed up with a sacrifice fly to the wall in left to score Knapp with her ninth RBI on the young season.
Driesenga then helped herself with a single up the middle to score Sappingfield. The Maize and Blue added its fourth and final run in the sixth on a Knapp single.
The righthanded Driesenga then got two Samford groundouts in the seventh and finished the game with a strikeout for her second complete-game win of the year.
Michigan finished the USF Tournament with a 3-1 record, defeating Marshall (Feb. 8), Florida Atlantic (Feb. 9) and Samford (Feb. 10). The lone loss came to No. 12 USF (Feb. 9).
The Maize and Blue will resume play on Saturday (Feb. 16) in the FAU Kickoff Classic in Boca Raton, Fla., against Toledo at 11 a.m. and LIU Brooklyn at 1 p.m. The Wolverines will also play twice Sunday (Feb. 17), against Maryland at 9 a.m. and Massachusetts at 11 a.m.
Sara Driesenga pitched 23 innings during the weekend and gave up just three earned runs.
Sierra Romero collected four hits, including two home runs and a double, along with nine RBI for the tournament.
Brandi Virgil made her first start of the season in rightfield.
Sierra Lawrence started at second base following two starts in leftfield.
Kelsey Susalla made her first collegiate start.
Michigan is now 3-0 all-time against Samford. U-M won the last meeting, 7-0, on March 15, 1996.

We all labour under the sad misconceptions of "romantic love." The implication is that we ought to "live happily ever after," but that's just not realistic. Or healthy. Cheerfully accept your partner's limitations and your own. Don't expect that one person to meet all your needs.

Your Local Carpet Cleaning Service
3 Harrison Road Edinburgh
"We have used Capital Carpet Care for over a year now and are delighted with the result. They work hard to deliver the very best service to their clients, which is exactly in line with our philosophy at The Kitchin." Michaela & Tom Kitchin, Owners of The Kitchin Restaurant.
If you are not entirely happy with our work, we will re-clean your carpets FREE of charge.
If you are still not happy we will cheerfully REFUND your money in full.
Superior Van Mounted Equipment
We use Van Mounted Cleaning Units to clean carpets. These units are the latest in cleaning technology, the unit carries its own water supply. All noisy equipment remains outside, only our vacuum/solution hoses and cleaning tools enter your home.
The unit is powered by a 24hp petrol engine. Compare that to an electric portable 'professional' machine which only produces 3/4hp and you start to see that there is no comparison in performance.
Our machine leaves your carpets much cleaner and drier than any small portable cleaner can ever hope to achieve. The results are spectacular and are achieved quickly with the minimum of disruption to our you.
10 Reasons Why You Should Choose Us
1. Fixed Appointment Times - We turn up when we say we will, none of this "I will be there between noon and 5.00pm" We give you an exact appointment time. And if we are going to be more than 10 minutes late we will phone ahead to let you know.
2. Honest Pricing - We promise no high-pressure sales gimmicks. We will let you know the full cost before we carry out the work. You will never be presented with unexpected extras.
3. Certified Company – My Company are registered members of the NCCA . These are not just, pay and join, trade associations like some – You can only join these associations by diligent study and the successful completion of rigorous exams.
4. Superior Drying Times – We get most carpets dry in 2–4 hours, so your house hold is back to normal quickly with the minimum of disruption.
5. Long Lasting Deep Clean – Most companies perform only a surface clean then the carpets look dirty again. Not us. We quickly clean thoroughly down to the base of fibres. This means that the cleaning carried out by us stays cleaner for much longer.
6. Healthier Cleaning - Our High Powered cleaning unit produces high heat at the cleaning head. This means we clean and sanitise at the same time ensuring your and your family's good health.
7. We can offer Stain Protection to help extend the life of your investment.
8. If you have ever been treated badly by other service companies before (sending untrained personnel, poor or shoddy work, bad timekeeping, rude customer service and overcharging) then try us. I can categorically say that you will be thrilled that you did.
9. We are TrustMark approved. The government backed scheme to help consumers find reputable tradesmen to carry out work in the home improvement industry,
10. Finally, don't just take our word for it – read our testimonials. Past clients have been happy to write good things about us and recommend us to family and friends. Please call us to see what we can do for you, you'll be glad you did. We look forward to hearing from you.
Here's What Some of Our Clients Have Been Saying About Us...
"This letter is to testify the excellent standard of carpet cleaning and service provided by Capital Carpet Care for Hotel Missoni Edinburgh. As a five-star hotel, we expect an excellent standard from all of our suppliers and Robert and his team met that standard every time. His work was quick, efficient and well organised to ensure minimum disruption to our guests. The results were fantastic on every floor, and the carpets really did look brand new after they had completed their work."
Carolyn Mitchell, Rooms Division Manager Hotel Missoni Edinburgh
"Dear Robert. You cleaned my carpets last week and seemed a bit worried that they didn't look as good as you'd hoped. Actually they came up far better than I'd expected and I'm very pleased with the result
(far better than when we used our previous company). We'd thought about replacing the living room carpet with a solid floor but have now decided to keep the carpet since it looks so much better. Definitely money well spent"
Mr. P Lawlor, Edinburgh.
"Dear Robert. I am emailing to thank you very much for the work you carried out in our Head Office. The areas have come up amazingly clean and has made such a difference, it has been noted by many members of staff how clean the carpets look. Many thanks. Kind regards"
Kirsty. CHAS Edinburgh.

For some time Sky has talked up its plans for a music service that will sweep all before it. Talk's over, here's the walk...
The uber-broadcaster has today officially announced 'Sky Songs' which will provide both download and streaming access to an initial library of over four million tracks. As you would expect from Sky there's no free ad-supported model, all four major music labels are aboard (Universal, EMI, Sony Music and Warner) and you won't need to be a Sky customer already for access.
So really it all comes down to the price plans and here things stack up quite well:
- pay £6.49 and download either a £6.49 album or 10 songs, and receive unlimited access to listen to over four million songs online for one month; or
- pay £7.99 and download either a £7.99 album or 15 songs, and receive unlimited access to listen to over four million songs online for one month
"Our music partners bring an outstanding catalogue and unrivalled expertise that complements Sky's strengths in content distribution," said Sky COO Mike Darcey. "Sky Songs will reach out to consumers who want legitimate digital services offering choice, ease of use and great value. Offering legal access to digital music is a vital step in combating illegal downloading. "
Yep Sky Songs looks promising, in fact it looks up there with the newly slashed subscription price for Napster (£5pm for unlimited streaming and five downloadable tracks). Interested? Sky Songs is "coming very soon". So all in all it looks like Amazon MP3, 7Digital, iTunes and even Spotify may need to up their game once more. Competition, don't you just love it...

The three hits strike distinct targets. The standout — the only one not trying to amuse us — is J. Stephen Brantley's Break.
Abruptly woken up one night is Nigel (Neil Santoro), startled out of bed by a strange man slipping into it. Scott (Tom Chace) is just as surprised, since he thought the occupant of the house was away, as he'd frequently been. Having successfully found the key hidden outside and making a duplicate, homeless Scott has been in the habit of occasionally seeking shelter here. He never took anything except an occasional bit of food that wouldn't be missed, and Nigel never noticed much besides an occasional item slightly out of place.
In his boyhood, Scott's mother would sometimes make a point of driving past this lovely beachfront house, so it occupies a special place in his imagination. Unkempt and unshaven, Scott is a junkie who just wants a comfortable place to be alone and go through withdrawal in peace.
Being a Brit, and given a convincing accent by Santoro, Nigel is a stark contrast in his pearl satin pajamas and reticent manner. He's not unfeeling, so he's sympathetic to the sordid plight of Scott, who is afflicted with feeling too much and accuses Nigel of being repressed and emotionless. Skillfully acted and directed, a natural ebb and flow of emotions between them keep us deeply interested.
In entertaining contrast is Trace Crawford's A Couple of Metal Gods. In black leather jackets and headbands are Joe (Mark Carter) and Steve (Christopher Ferreira), who have a heavy metal band. Joe is sitting down with his fellow band boss to discuss adding "a little variety" to their set lists — a ballad, to be specific. Appalled, Steve makes a quick assessment and concludes: "You want to do a love song! All right, who is she?"
But no, it's not as simple as that. Such ditties as "Die, Pig-Lover, Die!" are to get supplemented, not replaced. If you're as much a pushover for sight gags as I am, you'll enjoy Carter and Ferreira playing air guitars like it's a final competition on American Idol.
A world away in subtlety of amusement is My Name Is Art, by Peter Snoad. The scene packs a knee-slapping final punch, but getting there has its own separate satisfactions. The setting is an art gallery, where Gloria (Allison St. Rock) and Anthony (Alex Rotella), strangers to each other, are examining and commenting on a sprawling modern art sculpture. So far this is the stuff of an acting workshop improv, but soon wonderful things happen.

Johnson City woman ready for first marathon after losing over 100 pounds
JOHNSON CITY, Tenn. - A Johnson City woman is running her first marathon this weekend, just in time for Mother's Day.
Three years ago Allison Russell wouldn't be lacing up her tennis shoes to go running -- that's because she weighed around 295 pounds and didn't have energy for any exercise. "Since I was a child, I have been overweight. Certainly as I got older the pounds packed on, and I struggled with obesity for my entire life," she told us.
Russell tells us her last straw with obesity was in 2011, when she was diagnosed with several health problems. "I had been diagnosed with polycystic ovarian syndrome. I had high blood pressure and so some of my liver some liver enzymes were up," she said.
Russell tells us that's when she started researching gastric bypass surgery. In May 2011 she had the surgery.
Currently, Russell has lost around 120 pounds by eating smaller portions and exercising. "Running has become my passion. I will run four or five times a week, and I do lots of other kind of exercise as well," she said.
On Saturday, Russell will lace up her shoes for her first marathon, the Mentoring Marathon in Johnson City. "A marathon is something I never thought I would be able to do. Today it is really the accomplishment of a lifetime for me," she said.
Russell tells us now she wants to encourage other moms like herself to make time 'you' time. "It's so important that we put ourselves first and that we take care of ourselves, our health, and keep ourselves well so that we can take care of everybody else," she said.
For those who don't believe you can change your lifestyle, Russell says you have to believe in yourself. "If I can do it, anybody can do it. It's small changes one day at a time. I'm certainly not perfect, but that's how journeys are taken, one step at a time," she said.
Russell tells us the marathon falls on her three-year anniversary of the surgery, and it's a chance to celebrate changed life.
Russell's husband and 10-year-old daughter Ginny tell us she's became an inspiration for them. They will be waiting at the finish line and cheering her on every step of the way.

Support My Ride to Conquer Cancer
2015 will be my third year participating in the Ride to Conquer Cancer. 2015 will be my first year without my wife supporting me since she passed away in August 2014.
Last year, with your generous donations, I raised over $16,000 dollars and over $25,000 in the two years I have been riding. All donations go to the Segal Cancer Center at the Jewish General Hospital. I am hoping that this year with your support to do even better.
About the Ride
- 2 day, 230km cancer charity bike ride from Montreal to Quebec City
- 2014: 1468 riders, $5.3 million raised
About the Rider
I am a father of 3 young daughters. 5 year old twins, Charlotte and Aja, who will be starting school this year and their 3 year old sister Olivia. It has been almost 2 years since my wife, Katrina, was diagnosed with stage 4 lung cancer. Her initial prognosis was 4 months. Thanks to advancements in cancer treatments we have had the opportunity to enjoy 2 additional years with Katrina.
For a young family, cancer has affected our lives in many ways. For the first 15 months Katrina's treatment provided a good quality of life with relatively minor side effects. Afterwards she had radiation treatment and traditional chemotherapy. We sold our house and moved so we could be closer to support and treatment.
Support my ride in support of my wife and others living with cancer. I hope, one day, other families will no longer have to be affected by cancer. Please give generously.

War justified despite Senate report: Wolfowitz
Page Tools
Deputy Defence Secretary Paul Wolfowitz, a lead architect in the US-led war on Iraq, insisted that the war was justified even after a scathing US Senate report on the quality of pre-war intelligence.
Saddam Hussein's refusal to comply with UN resolutions demanding weapons inspections, the brutality of his regime, and his history for developing and using chemical weapons more than justified the war, he said in a speech to Omaha business leaders.
A Senate investigation concluded on Friday that the US intelligence community "mischaracterised" Iraq's weapons of mass destruction before the war through "a series of failures," and its key judgments were either overstated or not backed up by intelligence reporting.
However, President George W Bush "took a broader case" than just weapons of mass destruction to the United Nations, Wolfowitz said.
"If you wait until all the dots are connected, it's probably too late because you've already been attacked," he added.
In the speech, Wolfowitz said that Iraqis were optimistic about their future following the recent power handover.
"I think they're starting to believe that we didn't come to get their oil," he said.
With the transfer of authority Iraqis now feel "they're no longer an occupied country," Wolfowitz said. "I believe that makes a tremendous difference."

Pontiac Converts
Editor's Rating:
The Good: Retractable hardtop, sleek styling, low price
The Bad: Poor rear head room and trunk space; slow; clunky handling
The Bottom Line: Whoa! This is a Pontiac?
Up Front
Pontiac has another bona fide winner on its hands in its new G6 Convertible coupe. The '06 version came out late—in April—and quickly sold out, so dealers are now selling '07s. The company rightly describes the G6 convertible as "red-hot," noting that the cars spend just an average of 11 days on dealers' lots before being snapped up. That makes two best-selling new Pontiacs on the market right now. The other is the Solstice two-seater sports car (see BusinessWeek.com, 10/5/05, "Solstice: A Brawny Beauty").
The G6 convertible has one very big selling point: It starts at less than $30,000 ($29,150, to be precise, for the basic '07 GT model) and comes with a push-button retractable hardtop that folds down into the trunk automatically. The clamshell top, designed in cooperation with Karmann USA, the Michigan arm of the famous German design company, is something of an engineering marvel for a car this inexpensive. General Motors (GM) had some difficulties getting the top to work, which is why the G6 convertible was late to market. But I ran the thing up and down many times, and it seems to work just fine.
The G6 GT—the model I test-drove—comes standard with a 3.5-liter, 201-horsepower V6. There's also a GTP version of the convertible with a 3.9-liter, 227-horsepower V6 and standard stability control that starts at $30,640 in '07. For another $1,450, you can upgrade, with a premium package that includes leather bucket seats, a power driver's seat, heated front seats, and satellite radio. À la carte options include 18-inch alloy wheels ($550), satellite radio ($325), heated seats ($250), a remote vehicle-starter system ($190), and adjustable gas and brake pedals ($125).
Pontiac has sold 92,278 G6s of all types in the first seven months of this year, 45.2% more than last year, including 17,516 sold in July alone. That's enough to make it the ninth best-selling car model on the market. The G6 has been moving up through the ranks of best-selling models, and that's partly due to soaring sales of the G6 convertible, which GM says accounted for 9.5% of G6 sales in July.
Even though the G6 convertible is in short supply, dealers don't seem to be gouging customers on price. The G6 convertible's average real-world selling price right now is $30,415, according to the Power Information Network, about the same as the Toyota (TM) Camry Solara, and about what you'd expect, given the car's sticker price.
The front-wheel drive G6 GT convertible is sporty, but it's no sportscar. It weighs 3,858 lbs., which is a lot for the relatively small engine to get rolling. And, unfortunately, the G6 convertible only comes with a four-speed automatic transmission. To be genuinely fun to drive, a car like this really needs a smoother, more refined six-speed automatic—or, better yet, a stick shift. Both are available on other G6 models, and it's a shame you can't get them on the convertible, even as an option.
The G6 convertible is no speedster, either. Even with the bigger engine, it takes about 7.5 seconds to jump from 0 to 60 miles per hour. The GT version with the small engine took north of 8 seconds to get to that speed, which is pokey for a car that looks so sleek and swift. Handling isn't so much sloppy as "Detroit-like." You can't push this car very hard on curves and corners without quickly starting to lose control.
Pontiac's priorities are evident as soon as you start driving the car. It's just fast enough and sporty enough so as not to be annoying. The engine has an angry whine when you push it a little, and in the manual-shifting mode the clunky, four-speed automatic is a lot more fun to drive. It's sporty enough to satisfy most people, but it's no BMW.
The company put a premium on making the ride comfortable.
For a small, inexpensive car, the G6 does an exceptional job at smoothing out bumps on the highway, and even on rocky back roads. With the top up, the car is also exceptionally quiet inside. Over the past 16 months, I've test-driven more than six dozen new models on the bumpy back roads around my house in rural Pennsylvania, and with its top up the G6 really stands out for the smoothness and quietness of its ride. With the top down, wind-buffeting in the front seats is minimal, even at highway speed.
The car's interior design has its pros and cons. On the plus side, the instruments and general design are very attractive. The dash and instrument setup have a pleasing curvy shape, and there's a crease snaking across the dash that adds to the effect. I especially like the form of the center console, and the way the two, chrome-ringed air ducts at the top go with the console's overall shape. The numerals and markings on the instruments are in a bright red that's very striking at night.
The downside is that the sharply raked windshield makes the dash very deep, and in my test car it was a vast field of too-shiny black vinyl that detracted from the otherwise attractive interior design. The felt roof liner covering up the workings of the retractable top also looks cheap and not very durable. It wouldn't have taken much extra effort on Pontiac's part to upgrade the materials a little more and add an elegant pattern or a splash of color to the interior.
The G6's other big downside is the same as the Solstice's: There's almost no trunk space with the top down. The top folds up into two large panels that take up most of the 12.8 cubic feet of luggage space in the trunk when the top is up. There's a retractable barrier separating the folded-down top from the spare tire, and the only way to create a useable amount of space underneath it when the top is down would be to remove the spare. So unless you want to risk driving around without a spare tire, you have to do without a trunk while driving al fresco.
On the other hand, the G6 convertible has something that the Solstice and its sister model, the Saturn Sky (see BusinessWeek.com, 5/31/06, "Sky High"), don't have: A rear seat. And it's not a tiny little afterthought of a rear seat, either. There's a surprising amount of leg, shoulder, and hip room, though head space is very tight. A couple could take an overnight jaunt on a sunny weekend in this car and still have space for luggage in the back seat. They probably could even take a child along, though two kids plus luggage would be a stretch.
This is a great car for someone who wants a good-looking, head turner of a convertible that can double as an everyday car. The retractable hardtop makes it fun to drive in spring, summer, and fall, but also comfortable in winter. The G6 has front-wheel drive and comes with standard traction control, making it practical for winter driving. And the relatively spacious rear seat offsets the lack of luggage space when the top is down. Just keep in mind that it doesn't have the speed and precision handling of a genuine sportscar.
If I were buying a G6, I'd consider paying up for extra interior leather and a bigger engine. The car gets decent mileage either way. The base G6 convertible is rated to get 19 miles per gallon in the city and 27 on the highway. You only lose about 1 mpg by going with the bigger engine, and the base model GT convertible is a little too pokey for my taste.
The logical alternative model to consider, in my mind, at least, is the Ford Mustang convertible (see BusinessWeek.com, 7/1/05, "This Mustang is Part Echo, Part Thunder,"). It has a ragtop, rather than a retractable hardtop, but it's a similar car and has the virtue of being a bit cheaper that the Pontiac. I'd also price out the Mini Cooper S convertible (see BusinessWeek.com, 7/11/06, "Maximum Mini"). Other models to consider are the new Chrysler Sebring, the Solara, and Mitsubishi Spyder Eclipse.
Compared to those rivals, the G6 offers excellent value. Even with the engine and interior upgrades I'm suggesting, you can take home a G6 convertible for a little more than $30,000. It also has the virtue of being manufactured in Michigan, if you care about buying American. And this is one Made-in-USA model where Detroit got most of the important things right.

this was built pretty much out of scrap stuff . i 'm using a trolling boat battery so i dont have to wire in an altenator .
if you have a engine hoist , set the motor at the desired height and start building your frame around the motor. i started with the back 2 plates , then built forward until i tied in the front mounts to the frame, removed the hoist and built on from there. the radiator is from a 90's GMC van and i use an electric fan . i have a oil pressure gauge , watertemp, and a tach . i used cheap-o block hugger headers off ebay and el-cheapo turbo mufflers.
i wish i would have built one of these years ago , i've broke in 2 motors and my brother has used it for one of his motors . it came in super handy for finding any problems before dropping the motor in the car.
sorry , i dont have plans for this , i just kinda built it on a lark . the only real problem i had was i wasnt sure how to wire the starter and HEI ignition.
if you are half way mechanically inclined , have a welder and a grinder they arent to difficult to fabricate .

Samsung today announced two new additions to its WB-series of high zoom, point-and-shoot digital cameras. The 12-megapixel WB650 and WB600 offer the same wide-angle 24mm Schneider lenses as their predecessors, the WB550 and WB500, but extend the telephoto capability of the range from a 10x optical zoom to 15x optical zoom. In addition, the WB650 comes equipped with a super clear and sharp 3.0-inch AMOLED display and built-in GPS technology for the automatic geo-tagging of images from anywhere in the world.
12 Megapixel CCD, 24mm Wide-Angle Lens with 15x Optical Zoom
Samsung's WB650 and WB600 claim to provide the world's best optical performance in the compact high-zoom category, with their 24mm ultra wide angle and 15x super optical zoom. The cameras' high-performance Schneider KREUZNACH lenses are also paired with Dual Image Stabilization (IS), which allows users to capture crystal-clear images by both Optical and Digital Image stabilizers.
Advanced Display
The WB650 features a 3.0-inch AMOLED display which offers significant benefits compared to traditional LCD screens. The screen enhances the experience for end-users with a much brighter and sharper display, which can easily be viewed outdoors and even in direct sunlight. The AMOLED screen offers improved battery life, a higher contrast ratio, more vibrant colors, and the ability to display images that can be reviewed at any angle, while fully maintaining the same color gamut. The WB600 features a large, 3.0-inch TFT LCD.
GPS Technology & Geo-tagging Capability
The WB650 utilizes built-in GPS technology to pinpoint and store the exact location that the shots were taken. With the WB650, users can geo-tag digital images, recording the longitude and latitude of where in the world the photo was taken.The camera will display the name of the city, state, and country on its AMOLED screen.
HD Video Recording
The WB650 and the WB600 both put high-definition video recording in the palm of users' hands thanks to the ability to record video at a resolution of 720p / 30fps. Samsung also incorporates H.264 compression and offers consumers true HDMI connectivity, which allows the camera to be connected directly to an HDTV without the need for a cradle.

Clean declaration must for Australia's Olympic athletes
Australia's Olympic athletes will be required to sign statutory declarations saying they have no history of doping.
Australia's Olympic athletes will be required to sign statutory declarations saying they have no history of doping, the country's Olympic committee said on Tuesday. Athletes competing at next year's Winter Games in Sochi will be the first to sign the mandatory document in the wake of the recent doping revelations, the Australian Olympic Committee (AOC) said in a statement.
"Any person who does not make the statutory declaration will be ineligible for membership of any Australian Olympic team or shadow team," the statement read. An Australian Crime Commission report released last week said it had found "widespread" use of banned drugs among professional and amateur athletes, with links to gambling and organised crime.
The Australian anti-doping officials met with six National Rugby league clubs on their investigation process on Tuesday after the clubs confirmed they were under scrutiny.
Determined to "vigorously pursue all potential anti-doping rule violations", the AOC warned false declaration would incur harsh penalties for the athletes and even the officials.
"Any person who wilfully and corruptly makes a false statutory declaration knowing it to be untrue will be guilty of a criminal offence and could face up to 5 years imprisonment," it said. Declaration details would be shared with the Australian Sports Anti-Doping Agency (ASADA), AOC president John Coates said.
"This may include verifying the contents of a statutory declaration, reporting suspected false declarations, or identifying instances where a person or group of persons refuses to sign the statutory declaration altogether," Coates added.

Manuel Pellegrini's side dominated from the first minute as it conquered any lingering nerves to secure its second league title in three seasons.
Knowing a point would likely be enough to win the title on goal difference and that defeat could spell disaster, Manuel Pellegrini's men set out to attack from the first whistle and was duly rewarded.
Samir Nasri opened the scoring with a fine low strike that evaded Hammers keeper Adrian and crashed in off the post, and Vincent Kompany made it 2-0 shortly after the break.
City dominated the opening half an hour, pegging its opponent back into its own penalty area for long periods, but could not find a way through until the 38th minute.
Martin Skrtel's own goal at Anfield put the home fans' nerves at ease somewhat but they would still have been hoping that David Silva, Edin Dzeko and Sergio Aguero had done better with their half chances.
But Nasri's measured strike sent the Etihad into raptures and, with Liverpool still trailing 1-0 to Newcastle, seemed to dash any lingering hopes at Anfield.
City did not rest of its laurels following the opener, with Aguero glancing Nasri's free kick wide of the far post and then Pablo Zabaleta failing to convert his compatriot's low cross.
Silva then struck the crossbar seconds before the halftime whistle when Andy Carroll deflected his powerful shot.
And City took one more giant stride toward the league crown in the 49th minute when Vincent Kompany poked home from close range after Nasri's corner struck Dzeko near the penalty spot.
In a matter of moments Liverpool turned its match on its head, with Daniel Agger and Daniel Sturridge both scoring off Steven Gerrard free kicks, but City carried on.
Painted as a potential saviour for Liverpool before the match, Andy Carroll made way for Carlton Cole having failed to make an impact for the Hammers.
Pellegrini looked to shore things up by bringing on Fernandinho and James Milner for Edin Dzeko and David Silva, but City kept up the pressure and Nasri was denied by Adrian after being played in by Yaya Toure.
Toure was withdrawn late with a hamstring injury while Aguero and Hammers midfielder Mark Noble were both booked for a late spat, but that did not dampen the hosts' celebrations.
The home fans whipped up a noisy atmosphere before flooding onto the pitch at the final whistle, which confirmed a second Premier League title in three years and City's second trophy of the season following its Capital One Cup final victory.

It produced its first car in 1903 and Vauxhall have been making impressive cars for the British motoring public ever since. With a wide range of models, engines and trims to choose from, there's a Vauxhall for you.
With its range of popular vehicles, Vauxhall cars are a common sight on our roads as owners enjoy a well-made and comfortable car. Some models are still made in the UK and Vauxhall has featured in the best-seller charts for decades.
Among their most popular buys is the excellent Astra which offers great value, lots of equipment and high comfort levels.
The Astra is a household name and the car also offers a range of excellent engines and trim levels to make this a decent choice for demanding families who like a car with space and practicality. There's also the GTC which is based on the Astra but which has a different body and improved driving dynamics.
Alongside the Astra, possibly the next best known car is the excellent Corsa. With its sharp good looks, it is a great performer and there's a five door model for those who need a practical small car. Again, there's a wide range of trims to choose from.
However, the new Viva is a name from the past that has been revived by Vauxhall – though it's nothing like its predecessor! The Viva is an excellent city car with a low price. Despite its small stature, there's a lot of space.
It's not just the Viva that will turn heads – the Adam is also a stylish city car which is nippy around town and with a long list of personalisation options. And the Agila is a practical city car with a surprising amount of space on board.
Vauxhall don't just do great small and family cars – their offering in the mini-MPV segment with the Meriva is not only practical but has lots of innovation on board too and an excellent cabin.
There's also the Mokka in the supermini MPV class and it offers great looks and lots of equipment. The Mokka handles well and is a comfortable place to be.
If you need more space, the Zafira, or the Zafira Tourer, are both popular in the MPV sector – the Tourer has seven seats but both models offer a flexible seating arrangement and practicality.
In the 4x4 segment, there's the Antara which has space and abilities, and the Cascada convertible is a well-priced alternative to many rivals.
If you want a car built for thrills, then the VXR8 will take some beating while the hybrid Ampera is growing in popularity because of its good design, abilities and performance. The futuristic car has an electric motor backed-up with a small petrol engine and the end result is an impressive car that is cheap to run.
Let's not forget the firm's incredible Insignia, which comes in a range of guises – including the Insignia Country Tourer - and has impressive list of engines, trims and options to choose from. The car is popular for a reason and its value and fun-to-drive abilities are enjoyed by many.

My brother is looking at an E36 Compact available exclusively to him, but has just asked me if I can find out if any of the m3 bumpers fit the compact.
Can anyone shed some light on this?
Would a genuine saloon/coupe/cab m3 bumper fit a compact?
Would it have to be an aftermarket m3 bumper designed to fit a compact?
He's a genuine-only freak when it comes to his bimmer.
Infact, I'll post up pics of his previous cars when I'm back home!
