Earlier this week, I tried to bribe a man into spewing a chewed-up time machine at me.
It all started when I backed Guts of Glory, a board game by Ridiculous Fishing developer Zach Gage, designer Jesse Fuchs and artist Jess Worby, on Kickstarter in 2012. On January 1, my copy arrived. The $35 box set looks and feels great, so I wasn't too upset about the wait. To be honest, I had totally forgotten that I had backed it in the first place.
Figuring out how to play Guts of Glory the first time can be a bit of a challenge, since the included instruction booklet insists on immersing you in its food-themed language, which is full of verbs like fill, feed, froth, chew, spew and swallow. None of these concepts are particularly hard to grasp once you're playing, but any live human player familiar with the game could do a much better job of explaining things coherently.
But it does have a fun sense of humor. The first rule is my favorite: Players determine who goes first by arguing over who's the hungriest, or, failing that, the angriest. From there, you'll take turns drawing cards with special effects that range from funny to straight-up cruel. Once these oddball food items are in your mouth, you can "chew" them to digest and swallow them, which gives you the Glory points you need to accumulate to win the game. But if you have too much food in your mouth and more is added in, you have to "spew" some extra into your opponent's hand. And every time a card gets spewed, it gets extra glory. So there's a delicate risk-reward balance for filling your mouth up with food.
After you figure it all out, you'll be uttering sentences like "After I feed that condiment, I'll chew and swallow my food for 2 Glory," which really means "When it's my turn I'm going to draw that card and play this other card for two points."
Two-player games of Guts tend to be the least strategically taxing, as they allow players to draw from a deck built out of just 25 of the 57 total included cards. Since any single card's value is determined by how it relates to other cards in the deck, you'll spend your initial few games memorizing their abilities and drawing connections between them. You'll learn, for instance, that a Get Buff food is a dangerous pick in the early game, or when there's a Laser Teeth condiment in play.
Guts hits its sweet spot in three-player matches, which offer a perfect mix of luck, strategy, and politicking. Since there are plenty of cards in Guts that allow you to target specific opponents with attacks, there's built-in motivation for players to build temporary alliances and develop strategies that benefit two players at once. In a three-person game, two players working in tandem can usually tear down another who has an early lead or other advantage.
Games can occasionally drag on as the stakes get raised and players crouch over the board, calculating the effects of the chain-reaction that will occur if they play this card or that one. People start to get that look in their eye like they're really spinning their gears to solve a math problem, absentmindedly muttering things like "These dentures will let me double chew my box of spiders, but I need that de-masticator to stop her tar attack."
Because other players' cards are just as important to your strategy as your own, the game's occasionally slow pace isn't as much of an annoyance. When it's not your turn, you're carefully considering every card on the board, thinking about big plays your opponents might try to put together. The feeling you get when you know you'll be able to throw together a huge combination, and no one can stop you, is amazing.
The game's smartest mechanic is "spewing," which forces you to offer one of your cards to an opponent whenever you draw a card that won't fit in one of the five slots in your "mouth."
Spewed cards automatically get "glory" cards attached to them, drastically increasing their value and raising the stakes for everyone in the game. It only takes seven glory points to win the game, so as the game nears its final stages, players will become desperate to set up situations that force opponents to spew valuable cards their way.
This is when the politicking gets really passionate.
"If you spew that Time Machine at me I will reward you richly," I promised a friend, in one particularly close game. "I will set a crown of fine gold upon your head."
"Listen," interrupted my roommate. "If you spew it to him, he'll get two turns in a row and completely screw both of us. Spew the Hot-Hot Sauce instead and when it's my turn I'll spew this gloried Tire of Doom at you."
"Do this for me and you'll be given a place of honor in my glorious kingdom," I insisted. "Betray me and you will feel my wrath."
It didn't work. He sided with my roommate, and I declared him to be my mortal enemy, spending the rest of the game systematically undermining every effort he made to put points on the board.
Some say there's no glory in bribery and revenge. They're so wrong.Go Back to Top. Skip To: Start of Article.

New WK owner few questions.
I just bought a 2009 Wk Hemi on Monday with (now) 15,116 miles. It's not certified, but the dealer I bought it from was a Jeep dealer but is now Subaru only and they had left over so i was able to get a good price. Well now I have few questions.
1) They said they changed the oil when I picked it up but by Wednesday the scheduled oil change warning is showing when I turn the car on. Is it possible they just didn't reset the computer when they finished or do you think I got lied to?
1A) I'm planning to change the oil anyway. What 5w-20 oil and filter do you recommend and should i go synthetic?
2) I have the tick i've been reading about and from what I understand its fairly normal with the 5.7L Hemi. Could it maybe related to the oil as in they didn't put the correct weight in or not change at all? Edit: I also noticed the idle is sometimes erratic by 100-200 rpms, it usually hovers around 600-700. I was however turning the car on and off about 3-4 times during a short trip up the road which is when I really noticed it. Any thoughts?
3) The keyfob I got works but it usually takes a few hard clicks to unlock the doors. Is the battery going or something else? Also, the auto start works but the car shuts off when I open the door, am I just doing things in the wrong order?
Thanks to whoever helps and i'm happy to be part of the club.
Re: New WK owner few questions.
Hey welcome ! dont worry about the infamous tick, all of us hemi guys have it some more noticable than others. Its said to be from the MDS lifters in our engine. The oil, turn the key to accessory, and press the gas pedal three times and that will reset the oil light. check the color of the oil on a white paper towel if its light in color they more than likely changed it. Synthetic is good for cold start etc, but you have to stay synthetic. Use a mopar oil filter in my suggestion, fram are awful and they have blown apart in recent years they have a cardboard filament, or whatever its called. Mopar are 7 bucks from the dealer. My keyfob does that too but ive learned to live with it, it might be the battery but im too lazy to change it haha. Hope this helps !!
Re: New WK owner few questions.
Hey thanks for the welcome, I guess i'll check the oil since i've been busy all week I can now get to it.
As for the keyfob I tried the second one I got which works much better so I guess the battery is going on the other one, no big deal really.
Thanks for your help.
Re: New WK owner few questions.
No problem at all, glad to help ! happy st patricks day !
Re: New WK owner few questions.
My key starts to do that as well and sometimes the unlock button doesnt work. I had a solder point coming lose so I just added some extra solder and wahla! Problem fixed. Dont know how many keys you got with it but if you got two keys I would suggest getting a third...that way you can program it yourself and dont have to have a stealership do it for you.
Re: New WK owner few questions.
The second key I have works better.
Any thoughts on the auto start turning the car off when I open the door?
Re: New WK owner few questions.
Yeah what I'm getting at tho is if your first key craps out you will have to pay even more to have another one made. If you have two keys you can program the third yourself. One key craps out and you will have to have a stealership program a spare key if you want another one.
I dont have any clue since i dont have remote start...but try checking this out...i think it starts around page 26.
Re: New WK owner few questions.
Maybe i'll get another soon, i'm somewhat strapped for cash ATM. The mod bug has hit me after only one week of owning the damn car so i'm going to save up for that for the time being.
Any thoughts on K&N vs Airraid for a CAI?
Thanks for your help.
Re: New WK owner few questions.
I personally have a K&N intake on my 4.7 which I picked up from ebay for I think 110 shipped. It was used but in MINT condition. Many people will argue as to whether the CAI actually gives you a boost in HP and MPG. I personally cant say for sure but I can say that my CAI paired up with my maggy exhaust makes my jeep sound like a beast!

Americans deserve better on Benghazi attack
The angry exchange Wednesday between outgoing Secretary of State Hillary Clinton and Sen. Ron Johnson (R-Wis.) was striking on several fronts.
First, Clinton's sheer frustration with the line of questioning. At one point, she angrily declared: "With all due respect, the fact is we had four dead Americans," Clinton said, her voice rising in anger. "Was it because of a protest? Or was it because of guys out for a walk one night who decided they'd go and kill some Americans? What difference, at this point, does it make?"
We understand her frustration, but there is a difference between a spontaneous outbreak of violence and a planned terrorist attack. Which was this, what exactly happened and how can the government prevent such an attack in the future are interrelated questions to which the American people deserve better answers.
But the give-and-take also was notable because Johnson and other Republicans continue to focus on the wrong issue. The major question still unresolved — and not adequately answered by this administration — is how the Benghazi consulate came to be so fatally vulnerable to attack. Four Americans died there last fall, including Libyan Ambassador Christopher Stevens. Johnson and other Republicans have raised that question, and they're right to do so.
But he and other Republicans missed the mark when they focused once again in their questioning on a tired campaign meme — U.N. Ambassador Susan E. Rice's flawed performance on the Sunday talk shows immediately after the attack.
Rice was wrong, which wasn't that surprising given that intelligence often changes in the early days after such an event, and perhaps that the administration was trying to put the best possible spin on events. But Rice's performance is hardly the critical issue anymore.
For her part, Clinton, surely aware of the political implications of her performance, continues to accept responsibility but not blame. She has tried to assign some responsibility to Congress as well. It delayed aid to Libya, she says. Maybe that's fair, maybe not.
Our frustration is that despite her words, there remains a lack of accountability at the State Department for what happened. But we're just as frustrated that senators such as Johnson can't seem to quite get over the campaign just past.

text: I don't post here much. I do ride with Charles once in a while here in Fort Worth; hopefully that doesn't hurt his reputation Anyway, my sweet spot is '80s road bikes, but I recently came up with a built of one of those that maybe belongs here. The bike came to me as The Dumpster Queen- a 1983 Raleigh Marathon. I found it in a dumpster. I outfitted as a backup commuter bike and light tourer, a role it filled for a couple years. About a year and a half ago, DISASTER! I took it to a charity ride and had a run-in with another guy in the parking log. My chain got caught and it trashed the derailleur. Ugly. I liked the bike, though, so I hung onto it, thinking maybe I would make it into a single speed at some point. Then, a week ago, I came across a good deal on Craigslist: a 700C wheel with a Sturmey Archer 2-speed kickback hub. Time to get busy. I straightened the dropout as best I could with a wrench and hammer massage. I got the wheels on it; this might just work: This morning there was a bike swap, and I picked up some bits I needed, including some pedals and wide cruiser bars (complete with cork grips). It all came together nicely and I took it out for its first ride today. So far I've got about $80 into the bike, plus some parts out of the garage.

A small Hawke's Bay packhouse with poor hygiene protocols has sparked a national food scare.
The Ministry for Primary Industries said a worker with hepatitis A at the plant handled royal gala, New Zealand beauty apples and golden queen peaches during a four-day period while infected with the virus, possibly infecting fruit.
Apples and peaches on sale throughout the country could have then been contaminated.
Yet the ministry said the risk of contracting the illness from the fruit, sold between February 27 and March 13 this year, was "relatively low".
While some potentially affected fruit had been traced and withdrawn from sale, it was likely about 1400 cartons destined only for the domestic market, had been sold, ministry deputy director general Scott Gallacher said.
Pipfruit New Zealand CEO Alan Pollard said the infected worker was a returning New Zealander - yet it is not known where he contracted the virus.
He said it appeared the small packhouse, which did not export, had not followed all health protocols.
"This one looks like it's been an exception and we need to work out why," he said.
"Not every carton was handled by the same person and from what I understand it has all been traced."
Most packhouses followed rigid international hygiene standards.
All were regularly audited for food safety, he said.
Hepatitis A is spread when people ingest fecal matter - even microscopic traces - from infected people who have not washed their hands after going to the toilet.
The virus can remain infectious on the surface of fruit for months and transmit infection to other handlers and consumers.
Early symptoms are fever, loss of appetite, stomach pains and nausea. Further signs include skin jaundice, yellowing of the whites of eyes, dark urine and pale bowel motions.
The Ministry recommended people who bought potentially infected fruit should either cook the fruit well before eating, or throw it out.
Anyone with health concerns should contact their doctor, Mr Gallacher said.
No potentially contaminated fruit remains on shelves.

Welcome to the Quilting Board!
Sew many ideas ... just sew little time!!
Wow...really nice looking. One comment....a few of the block have dark backgrounds with only a hint if yellow and it detracts from the balance in my view. Useable but place them carefully. My eye was drawn to them right away.
While I only need 72 blocks for the size I want, I will be making extras. That way when I get to dealing with placement, I am not locked into just the 72 and can play til I feel the placement works before putting them all together.
When I posted the first 45, someone noted that I had a problem as there was only one or two with the minimal-yellow and dark edges, so I worked on getting a few more into the mix. I think that will help provide a little "cloud-effect" amidst all the bright sun of this quilt, much like the muddy-blocks in the FWS ... and give the eye a place to rest. After all, IRL my eyes are photophobic!

Having risen through the ranks to prominence as a private radio station DJ, Hatcha has always encouraged the spread of dubstep to the populous.

Baby, It's Cold Outside
There's a broader lesson for all of us about the connection between success and customer service.
Although it's not obvious by looking at this photo, it is currently very cold in Cincinnati! Chris (right) at his favorite haunt with owner Dave Murrie.
Along with much of our country, we're enduring a horrific winter here in the Midwest. Snow, bitter cold, closings and general weather disruptions have wreaked havoc with our happy routine.
I'm reminded by this year's nastiness of another winter a few years ago. It prompted me write my column about, well, my favorite lunch place and watering hole, and tie my affection for people who run companies to how they run them and go the extra mile for customers like me.
I think it represents a broader lesson for all of us about the connection between success and customer service. The correlation certainly transcends this single business to yours and mine.

As riders and online shoppers, we know it can be tough to buy a new bridle or pair of boots without trying them on. That's why we moved the fitting room to your living room (or barn)! From breeches to blankets, if you or your horse can try it on, you can return it, free! Just use the pre-paid return label included in your order within 60 days from the purchase date. And of course, please make sure the item is in like-new condition with original packaging (we said 'fitting room', not 'war room'!).
When hay is steamed with the HAYGAIN steamer process, the mold spores are killed and the dust is significantly reduced. Additionally, the hay becomes softer and more palatable for the horse. There are many types of horses that may benefit from these effects. For example, horses with airway problems such as inflammatory airway disease (IAD) or recurrent airway obstruction (RAO or heaves), older horses with decreased appetites or poor dentition, hard keepers, active and traveling sport horses and race horses, horses with allergies, and those kept in stalls for long periods of time. These types of horses benefit from either the reduction of dust, killed mold spores, increased palatability or (more likely) a combination of these factors.
The patented design of the steam manifold (metal plate with spikes at the bottom of the steam chest) ensures introduction of steam to the bale in the most effective manner. The spikes of the manifold penetrate the bale and distribute steam, enabling it to diffuse outwards from the center of the bale. The container is fully insulated (double wall) and efficiently sealed, ensuring the critically necessary temperatures are maintained. As the moisture content within the hay increases, the temperature rises exponentially due to the increased efficiency of condensed steam acting as a heat conductor. In addition, the design of the steam manifold plate will act as a hot plate to further amplify the heating process of the bale. The temperature of the hay reaches over 212 degrees Fahrenheit to guarantee that the mold spores are killed and irrespirable.

A fire that broke out in a condominium on Ski Trail Lane sent one person to the hospital Friday afternoon.
A cleaning woman, who was inside the condo at 2320 Ski Trail Lane when the fire started, was taken to Yampa Valley Medical Center for minor smoke inhalation.
The fire started at about 3 p.m. It destroyed a three-bedroom condo and caused smoke damage to three other units, Steamboat Springs Fire Marshall Jay Muhme said.
Witnesses told police the cleaning woman was working inside the condo when she saw flames coming out of a couch. The woman told police she tried to extinguish the flames, but as the smoke increased, she had to leave the building.
Muhme said that as far as he knows, only one person was in the unit when the fire started. The unit is part of Ski Trail Condominiums and was being managed by Colorado Resort Services. No one was staying at the unit at the time of the fire.
EMS Battalion Chief Mel Stewart of the Steamboat Springs Fire Department said that when the fire was reported, firefighters were told it mainly involved smoke.
When firefighters arrived, Stewart said flames were coming out of the unit's downstairs windows.
An engine and a ladder truck were brought to the scene, and it took about five minutes to extinguish the fire, Stewart said. Firefighters continued to work Friday afternoon to clean and seal off the burned area so investigators could examine it.
Along with destroying the unit where it originated, the fire caused smoke damage in nearby units and water damage in the upper units, Stewart said.
The fire moved up to a second-story window above the unit, but no fire damage occurred.
The cause of the fire is under investigation.

Company officials announced the appointment today. RedPriairie is an Atlanta-based supply chain and retail technology provider.

As governor, Pawlenty oversaw economic development efforts on behalf of Minnesota businesses, including the promotion of international business through trade missions to nine countries.

I'm looking forward to being part of a company with such significant financial momentum and that is a force in driving change in the software industry."

iPhone 5 vs. HTC One – HDR and flash camera comparison
March 23, 2013 at 4:04 pm
A new camera test has been made to compare the photo capabilities of these two devices.
CNET UK's Andrew Hoyle has posted an article on the differences between photos taken with the iPhone 5 and the HTC One.
The test consisted in photos taken in flash and HDR mode with the devices.
Here are some photos taken with the two handsets.

text: Hi Alasdair, I've gone back and updated my snapshot-merged patches from ages ago so that they apply to 2.6.25-rc7. Even though these updated patches are completely untested, I've been quite careful in rebasing them and they do build, so I figure they're worth posting here for review. Hopefully, I'll soon get a chance to test them at length and also update the userland patches. Cheers, Mark.

John Federici, PhD, professor, department of physics, New Jersey Institute of Technology (NJIT) and other physicists at NJIT recently received a U.S. Patent for a Terahertz imaging system and method. Since 1995, Terahertz imaging has grown in importance as new and sophisticated devices and equipment have empowered scientists to understand its potential.
"I see the Terahertz spectrum as one of the critical technologies for defense against suicide bombers and other terrorist activities," Federici said.
Federici's research has focused on the potential applications of Terahertz rays for directly detecting and imaging concealed weapons and explosives. Another application is the remote detection of chemical and biological agents in the atmosphere. In November of 2004, Federici and.
"The idea has been to apply different methods of imaging to Terahertz rays," said Federici. His research team has focused in particular on applications of synthetic aperture imaging to the Terahertz range. "The advantage of this particular method is the ability to generate Terahertz images with a large number of pixels using a limited number of Terahertz detectors. This imaging method should also be capable of video-rate imaging, thereby enabling the real-time monitoring of people hiding concealed explosives or other dangers." A typical imaging system would be analogous to a still or video camera designed for this purpose.
Scientists favor Terahertz radiation because it can transmit through most non-metallic and non-polar mediums. When a Terahertz system is used correctly, people can see through concealing barriers such as packaging, corrugated cardboard, walls, clothing, shoes, book bags, pill coatings, etc. in order to probe for concealed or falsified materials.
Once the rays penetrate those materials, they can also characterize what might be hidden -- be they explosives, chemical agents or more--based on a spectral fingerprint the rays will sense which can identify the material. Terahertz radiation also poses minimal or no health risk to either the person being scanned or the THz system operator.
Federici and his team recently published "Terahertz imaging and sensing for security applications explosives, weapons and drugs," in Semiconductor Science and Technology (Vol 20, page 266, 2005). The U.S. Department of Homeland Security, Army Research Office and National Science Foundation have provided funding for this research since 2002.
The article focused on three configurations of Terahertz systems, examining when and how best to use the rays. Transmission versus reflective detection, pulsed Terahertz detection systems versus continuous wave systems, and close proximity versus stand-off detection are compared.
"While pulsed Terahertz detection systems are capable of close proximity detection," said Federici, "there are many factors to take into account. For example, distortions to Terahertz pulses introduced by propagation through the atmosphere, favor a continuous wave system for stand-off detection."
Federici has recently garnered praise for his work. He recently received NJIT's top research honor, the Harlan Perlis Research Award. Next month, Federici will accept an award for his work from the Research & Development Council of New Jersey. The council honors and helps those individuals upholding the legacies of Albert Einstein and Thomas Alva Edison, both of whom lived and worked most of their lives in New Jersey.
Federici's research interests span discovery of infrared quenched photo-induced superconductivity and localized energy states in nano-materials to online semi-conductor process monitoring to advanced spectroscopic imaging technologies. He has been the lead writer on more than 50 publications in scholarly journals and holds four patents. His most recent patents emphasize Terahertz synthetic aperture imaging.
Federici received his bachelor's degree from University of Notre Dame and his doctorate in plasma physics from Princeton University.
New Jersey Institute of Technology, the state's public technological research university, enrolls more than 8,300 students in bachelor's, master's and doctoral degrees in 100 degree programs offered by six colleges: Newark College of Engineering, New Jersey School of Architecture, College of Science and Liberal Arts, School of Management, Albert Dorman Honors College and College of Computing Sciences. NJIT is renowned for expertise in architecture, applied mathematics, wireless communications and networking, solar physics, advanced engineered particulate materials, nanotechnology, neural engineering and eLearning.

Date of Stay: January, 2013
I wanted to share that the campground is currently making a transition to new management. The previous owner passed in September, and the bank has taken over the property. I spoke with the new operator and his wife, and I'm extremely happy that the campground is on its way back. The new phone number is (478) 454-013. They are revamping the website, and they advised they will continue to operate the pool. They are also going to partner with the city of Milledgeville and other local attractions to encourage people to use the facility. They also are planning events for the campground such as bluegrass concerts, etc. The facilities are already showing signs of improvement. This is a nice quiet facility and with the pool, is a great family environment.
Date of Stay: November, 2012
The facility was beautiful and spotless. Miles and miles of hiking trails, beautiful river, and man made falls. There is a very nice lake with boat/canoe rentals. All in all, a wonderful place to get away with nice, friendly folks.

* A123 posts deeper third-quarter loss on plant costs
* Battery maker says bump up in sales delayed, shares drop
* A123 says wins contract to supply SAIC batteries
* Shares fall after hours (Recasts first paragraph, adds detail, comments from CEO)
DETROIT, Nov 9 (Reuters) - A123 Systems AONE.O, which develops and builds advanced battery systems, posted a deeper third-quarter loss and warned that automakers were moving more slowly on electric car projects, sending its shares tumbling.
The Watertown, Massachusetts-based company cautioned that an increase in sales from electric-car related projects it had told investors to expect would be delayed by about half a year until the second quarter of 2011.
Shares in A123 fell 9 percent in after-hours trade.
Separately, A123 said it had won a contract to supply lithium-ion cells for an electric car to be produced by leading Chinese automaker SAIC Motor Co Ltd.
The battery pack for the 2012 model year vehicle will be developed by a joint venture between the two companies, and the cells will be shipped to China, A123 Chief Executive David Vieau said. Continued...

New Bill Would Help American Airlines Union Workers
Lawmakers recently introduced legislation that would allow American Airlines pilots, flight attendants and other union workers to defer taxes on the equity they'll receive at the conclusion of the airline's Chapter 11 restructuring.
Rep. Michael G. Grimm (R., N.Y.) is sponsoring the bipartisan bill, H.R. 2591. The legislation would push out existing deadlines under federal aviation law to ensure that the union workers can take advantage of the tax deferral that has helped other airline employees in prior bankruptcy cases.
American Airlines parent AMR wants to exit Chapter 11 protection through a merger with US Airways Group AMR is proposing to give its labor unions, unsecured creditors and current shareholders 72% of the new common stock in the merged airline, which would keep the American name. The payment plan remains subject to bankruptcy-court approval, while the merger is now under antitrust review.
Captain Keith Wilson, the president of American's pilots union, said Monday that the bill represents "basic fairness" in light of the concessions the unions agreed to during AMR's restructuring.
"The equity stake we will receive is designed in part to mitigate the pension losses we have sustained in American Airlines' Chapter 11 bankruptcy," he said in a statement. "We are hopeful that lawmakers will move to prevent a serious inequity by approving this legislation promptly."
The bill has been referred to the House Committee on Ways and Means, where it now awaits consideration.
Six cosponsors have signed on to the legislation, all of whom come from states where American and its employees have a significant presence, like New York, Texas and Illinois. For example, Texas Republican Rep. Michael C. Burgess's district includes part of Fort Worth, where American has its headquarters.

Jen and Justin head to Hawaii to celebrate his birthday, but it seems this long in works trip was originally meant for his ex Heidi Bivens!
Jennifer Aniston and Justin Theroux are enjoying some romantic time together in Hawaii, but Jen may not be feeling in a loving mood when she finds out that Justin had originally asked another woman to accompany him — ex Heidi Bivens!
US Weekly reports, "Theroux's Hawaiian getaway was originally planned with Heidi Bivens … And in March, Bivens gushed to pals about returning for the summer." Awkward!
Later that same month Jen was spotted with Justin and it now seems she will be the woman by Justin's side as he celebrates turning 40 in the tropical island.
So HollywoodLifers, would you be upset if someone took you on a trip they originally planned for their ex?

Comentários sobre a acomodação
Thank you again when we got to spend a lovely holiday at your apartment . The apartment is a great location close to the sea .All work again brilliantly. Ivanka is always so friendly and positive.I can wholeheartedly recommend it to others. We were 4 adults and 1 child (10 months).
We greatly enjoyed our stay. Ivanka is very responsive and hospitable and took care immediately of some issues that we had with the wifi. The living room/kitchen and terrace of the apartment are directly overlooking the seaside, the kitchen is well equipped. The airport, Trogir and even Split are a short car ride away and there is plenty to see and do. Can recommend this place for a holiday break and would definitely stay there again.
We stayed in Ivankas apartment during three weeks in july 2014. The apartment was perfect, with easy and swift access to the beach, barbecue on the wonderful terrace, wifi and aircondition. This is, however, not what sets this experience apart from previous stays in holiday apartments. During our stay we were invited to a birthday party, we were supplied with produce from the family's garden, offered to use the new canoe, firewood for the barbecue to name but a few aspects of the wonderful hospitality that was shown us. Ivanka is a fantastic host, and she is well backed up by her husband, daughter, grandson and not to forget the wonderful grandfather who lives in the top floor. We will always be thankful for Ivankas presence and her wonderful support when we needed it and asked for it. It is a truly unique experience, and we hope that more guests get the opportunity to take part of this.
Ivanka and her family offered us brilliant holiday. She took care of us so perfectly that we feel like we were her family. And the apartment was even
better than the pictures introduced. Hopefully we'll visit there again.
Ivanka's apartment is just as in the uploaded pictures; it's very spacious and furnished to cater for all the needs a guest could have during their holiday stay. Bring a jumper for the evenings if you visit outside the summer season as it does cool down during the evenings. The apartment provides a lovely base from which to explore the Dalmatian coast and hinterland and during the summer season it should be lovely to cool down in the sea from which you are separated only by the local island road. We visited in early April so didn't jump into the sea here although it was warm enough to take the plunge into the amazingly blue sea during a day trip to Brac. Just one of the destinations easily reached from this base.
The highlight however is Ivanka herself. She's incredibly helpful and available to sort out any little problems you may encounter during your stay. Ivanka received a phone call from what turned out to be the captain of the Brac–Split ferry who was trying to track down the owner – I – of a mobile phone that had been found on the ferry. Ivanka jumped into her car and drove the 40-km-or-so roundtrip to Split ferry port to meet the captain and pick up my phone. She returned from Split a couple of hours after we had returned ourselves and by which point I had noticed my loss and to my absolute amazement pulled my phone out of her jacket! What a relief – our holiday pictures and numerous others from previous trips thought lost were safe! Thank you again Ivanka!
Very nice appartment close to the beautiful city of Trogir. We really enjoyed our stay. Ivanka made us feel at home with her warm welcome!
Schönes Apartment in der Nähe von Trogir (sehr sehenswert!). Vom Flughafen in ca 15min mit dem Auto oder Taxi erreichbar. Split mit dem Schiff. Also der ideale Standpunkt für Kultur, aber auch für Strandurlaub. Das Apartment ist einfach wunderbar. Schöne Terrasse mit Grill, geschmackvolle Küche (es ist einfach alles vorhanden was man an Küchenutensilien braucht). Aber auch sonst, Mikrowelle, TV,Radio, Waschmaschine...es fehlt an nichts. Supermarkt in beiden Richtungen in wenigen Gehminuten erreichbar. Allerdings: vorsicht (besonders mit Kindern), Strasse direkt vorm Haus. Zu unserer Reisezeit (Sep,Okt) nicht stark befahren, aber zur Hochsaison sehr. Die Gastgeber sind sehr nett und besorgt und in direkter Nähe erreichbar. Verständigung auf englisch oder deutsch. Würde ich auf jeden Fall weiterempfehlen!
Unser Traumurlaub wird bei diesem Haus erfüllt . Nach dem Motto: Träume nicht dein Leben sonder Lebe deinem Traum! Die liebevolle Ivanka und ihr Mann Braco sorgen für einen Urlaub wie bei Freunden. Der Strand ist so nah , näher geht es nicht. Am Strand kann man die Seele baumeln lassen und sich wunderbar entspannen. Man ist jedoch mit allem versorgt . In der nähe ist eine Strandbar wo Getränke und Snacks angeboten werden. Genau in der richtigen Distanz.
Dieses Haus ist absolut empfehlenswert und wir bedanken uns nochmals sehr herzlich für diesen wunderschönen Urlaub. Danke nochmals an Ivanka und Braco!
Hallo Ivanka,
Wir haben uns gut erholt und es war sehr schön bei Dir. Die Wohnung war sehr gut ausgerüstet und modern eingerichtet. Die Fernseherecke war etas klein aber es ging auch so. Wir waren ja auch zu einer Zeit da wo es Abens zu kalt war um auf der wunderschönen Terrasse zu sitzen. Alles Liebe die Lajos

Main description
This is an innovative (and apparently addictive) start-up that allows you to better manage your twitter community, through the use of rewards to your followers.
It's designed to save time (and possible money) by by-passing the need for a social media manager, in a fun and social way.
Early indications show a very strong growth in user take-up and usage, and it's hard to predict the eventual end-product of the Gamisfaction venture, yet I suspect that it will evolve as it matures. It's certainly a start-up worth investigating and following.

|Company blog
|For several days we have not tell you what we are doing in Gamisfaction and have been working a lot. Interesting things will happen tomorrow. Now we have 930 registered users, of which 261 will tweet tomorrow their rankings by a #FF. Since last Thursday we have grown about 140 users. This is incredible.
We have another novelty about gamification: The gamification is to apply game mechanical into different environments what are not games. Suppose the workplace.Typically promotions and salary increases are not directly related to any metric but imagine that transform your work into a game and started to give points and rewards to the employees based on their performance. And those awards will open the door to increase your salary or rank in the company. The same technique can be applied to any environment, in our case, Twitter.
Several game mechanics are implemented in Gamisfaction. All users have their points and we also have a medal table where people could see theis awards but this section seemed a bit neglected so we are giving to it more importance because we want to motivate you to improve your status at social networks. We kept the FFs , Rts and mentions Counts awards but there will be only one of each. We have also added two new awards:
- Awards to evaluate your number of followers: Reward the number of followers you have reached. We will be the first to congratulate you when you get certain number of followers.
- Award for the maximum number of RTs that have achieved: We have not found any website that offers this metric and we think it is a very interesting data. The account that has got more RTs in Gamisfaction is @lafugarock with 1067 RTs.
|Full article via web link
|Gamisfaction make easy the social networks at all the levels for those who do not have time and money to pay a social media manager.
Managing a Twitter accounts requires between 1 and 3 hours at day. Too much time and money, this is the reason why 48% of company accounts on Twitter have been abandoned.
With Gamisfaction Coach and only two minutes a day you will be able to manage your Twitter account.
The Coach Plan is a virtual personal trainer that will help you with your Twitter account who will suggest you what to tweet, who to contact and so on. Gamisfaction Coach performs all the tedious tasks for you tansforming social media in a game.

Just following up for those that might be experiencing a similar problem.
I did the work in about 45 minutes today, and it was a lot easier than I expected.
I followed the DIY instructions on removing the center console.
The leather boot took a slight tug to come out, the shifter popped out with some effort while in neutral as well, the center console trim also comae out easily with upward pressure. I unplugged all the necessary harnesses and saw this
The white wire are the bottom position of the assembly was cut through
the purple one was also stressed and almost seperate.
I went to strip the wire to solder it, but turns out that the white wire was broken elsewhere as well! It came right out of the cloth wrapping. I took 6 torx screws out (3 big ones holding it down, t30, and a couple t10 I believe on the side holding a plastic cover over the wires) and pulled the assembly up to have easier access
Afterwards, I cut open the cloth that was wrapped around the wires and saw a pretty horrid sight. All of the wires were coming apart! There was exposed copper everywhere and we were close to coming apart.
I spliced in some wire to replace the broken section on the white wire, and then to prevent these from coming apart, I doused them in hot glue to keep the wires in place, and intact. and closed everything up again nice and tight. The procedure to take it apart was easy enough, and putting it back together was simple.
I tested it out and everything worked!
I hope the hot glue holds up for some time.

New documentary takes a look at the changing face of Doctor Who fans
In 2013, millions of Doctor Who fans around the world celebrated the series' 50th anniversary. Were you one of them?
From the first ever Doctor Who convention, through the wilderness years and to cosplayers at the conventions of today, Who's Changing looks at how and why the nature of Doctor Who's fans changed as mainstream interest in the show took hold.
Who's Changing features interviews with many familiar faces from the show such as Louise Jameson (Leela), Sophie Aldred (Ace), Simon Fisher-Becker (Dorium Maldovar), Neve McIntosh (Madame Vastra), Catrin Stewart (Jenny Flint), Caitlin Blackwood (Amelia Pond), Dan Starkey (Commander Strax) as well as faces from behind the scenes such as script editors Gary Russell and Eric Saward and scriptwriters Andrew Smith (Doctor Who, Full Circle), Jane Espenson (Torchwood: Miracle Day, Buffy, Battlestar Galactica) and James Moran (Doctor Who, The Fires of Pompeii).
Plus, from the world of comic books, Who's Changing also features Tony Lee, Simon Furman, Dan Slott, Richard Dinnick, Richard Starkings and Josh Adams.
The film was shot over many months in 2013, the year of Doctor Who's 50th anniversary, at events around the UK such as MCM Comic Con, London Super Comic Con and the Doctor Who conventions, Big Blue Box 2 and Return to the 11th Hour. The filmmakers also filmed many fans in some incredible Doctor Who inspired costumes at these events.
Director Cameron K. McEwan says: "I've loved Doctor Who all my life and some of my earliest memories are of Doctor Who, and it was great to meet and interview so many people who felt the same. From actors to writers to fans, the love for the show comes over in abundance. It's an amazing journey from the start of fandom to where it is now - a genuinely fascinating story from hugely entertaining characters."
The DVD release also includes exclusive DVD-only extras with extended interviews with Louise Jameson, Sophie Aldred, Neve McIntosh, Simon Fisher-Becker and Dan Starkey.

Model Tsubasa Masuwaka, 27, announced on her blog on Monday that she and actor Naoki Umeda, 30, have filed for divorce. Rumors of an impending divorce had been swirling for most of last year, after they started living apart in November of 2011.
The couple married on Christmas Day 2007 and have a 4-year-old son.
Writing on her blog, Masuwaka said she and Umeda discussed their marriage in great detail and decided it would be best to go their separate ways. She apologized to fans for making such a serious announcement on her blog and thanked them for their support.© Japan Today

The USP has proprietary accessory rails (might need an adapter if you will be clamping stuff to your pistol), whereas the P30 has the non-proprietary rails and will accept most all clamp-on accessories without an adapter. The P30 has interchangeable grip panels to suit more hand sizes, while the USP does not.
The USP seems to me to be even more "overbuilt" than the P30, although both are outstanding. The USP has the more robust dual-spring recoil system, while the P30 has the single-spring+nylon-buffer recoil system like the compacts. The USP has the much more aggressive grip texture which I prefer.
Of course there are other differences between them too. Considering the price difference, I personally would choose the USP based upon my likes and needs, but either pistol is a definite winner in my book. ;)

Exploring Traverse City never leaves one disappointed. The city -- prominently featured on a plethora of "Best Vacation Spots" lists -- offers something for everyone, from the craft beer aficionado to that jerk who thinks it's fine for snow to be on the ground in the middle of April. Specific to that first person, however, Traverse City has just gotten started; when we started charting the development of Michigan craft beer in 2010, the vacation spot in northern Michigan had three lonely breweries. Now it's doubled that number, and within a year will be knocking at the double digit mark of breweries. Not bad for a city with a population less than 10% that of Grand Rapids.
Our latest endeavor took us to one of the newest offerings the city provides: Brewery Ferment. Found in a tiny retail storefront within walking distance to the celebrated 7 Monks taproom, Brewery Ferment is the brainchild of brewer Dustin Jones and his sister Kirsten, the marketing/artistic/design guru. We visited on a cold April Friday afternoon just as they were opening and had the place to ourselves for a few minutes.
The space itself is a credit to Kirsten's imagination and vision. Brewery Ferment boasts an open and inviting floor plan that maximizes space and natural light. The bar features standing room only (no stools) while the rest of the area gives customers spots to enjoy beer around furniture hand built by the owners themselves. The use of gentle blue and white paint, blended with the light colored wood floors and bar area lent a serene feeling to the place, and we immediately felt comfortable inside.
The beer is a testament to Dustin's talent; like so many successful Michigan breweries, Dustin's experience lies in the homebrew field. The sampler of five beers was reasonably priced and gave a great impression of the place.
As a fan of sours, the Mitten Wit stood out as a great contender for me. I also enjoyed the 45th Parrallale, which was a maltier than expected pale ale. With 8 beers on tap, I admit surprise that a few traditional mainstays – specifically an IPA – were missing from the lineup. The brown ale and ESB were fine examples of their style, but for those of you intent on keeping your horizons narrowed to hop bombs, you may be disappointed here. My favorite, however, was a slightly sour Dunkelweizen with a distinct Christmas spice element.
The food selection was limited but appreciable. Brewery Ferment provided snacks more robust than popcorn and peanuts – notably an olive tray and a charcuterie platter – and for those with more aggressive appetites, the space encourages ordering in. Remember that this too is keeping in line with many breweries, including Right Brain located in the same town.
Like all brand new breweries, some of the beer could use some polish. The Bookstore Bitter, for example, while enjoyable, seemed too sweet for an English style bitter, and I would have preferred a bit more clarity in the brown ale. The owner/bartender was happy to walk us through our preferences, however, and more than accommodated our requests and questions. Kudos to both Kirsten and Dustin for creating a warm and welcome environment!
The downtown district of Traverse City is a jewel on a nationwide level, let alone statewide, but I'm not the first to point that out. Whether your preference is walking along the beaches, eating whitefish paté, or exploring the exploding growth of breweries in the area, one cannot go wrong with a trip to Traverse City. Brewery Ferment fills a niche alongside the other Traverse City microbreweries, giving its customers another choice to enjoy. When people speak of craft beer saturation, this is not the type of place a thoughtful mind considers when talking of hitting capacity for microbreweries. I'm hoping small neighborhood microbreweries continue to grow, and if the future of Traverse City – and Michigan generally – continues as is, I will easily see my hopes realized.

Shadows of the wolves rough
Book by: firefang05
Status: Finished
Genre: Action and Adventure
Chapter5 (v.1)
Chapter 5
I feel my eyes turn a vibrant red as they sink slightly in to the old dragons scales, he turns harshly in a circle, as I fly through the misty air I transform, turning in to a human as I roll on to my shoulder, as soon as I reach my feet, I pull my hands in to fists, and raising them above my head, like a cloak, I am again a wolf. I rack my brain, as I remember Nex talking about our powers 'I shot light from my body' he had said. I take a deep breath, tightening my muscles as I stair in to Ivy's emerald green eyes, hoping to find comfort, yet I find hurt, her eyes a sad blue now. Proof that she has been bitten. My anger increases my body temperature on the rise, as I concentrate all my muscles, I find the power deep inside, and just before I release the shadows inside my body, I am hit head on by Ebony, again in human form. In on my back, she sits over me, her knees on my arms with her weight pinning me down, I glare at her eyes, the blood thirsty red they always seen to be, before a kill. She raises her dagger, aiming it for my heart, as she plunges it down through the air. Suddenly all her weight fly's off of me, as I see Nex, his lip cut with a multiple of wounds. I stand and run to hug him, but for some unknown reason she shoves me on to the cold damp floor. Looking up at him I see gold in his eyes, and I know he still cares, as a shot of fire skims past us. I try to find the shadows again but fail, as a horde of werewolves and vampires rush in, the vampires, with hands up, palms facing forward, shooting fire dark balls of flame, lighting up what seems to be a cellar. I can now see where Ivy sits, in a oversized lobster cage, as I watch the grey mist travel towards her. 'Ivy' I yell 'hold your breath, please, don't breath in the mist' I finish as I skid between the legs of a vampire, using them as a shield, as Nex lets out beams of light from his shaggy grey coat. Turning his head he smiles, letting me see his eyes turn gold. Yet again, I dodge another attack, as the werewolves are left, none with powers all clawing at our chests. 'Can you hold them back' I yell at Nex, he gives a shy nod. I dig into his mind, 'I'm gonna try to use my power' I say using telecommunication, as I skit over to Ivy, giving her a gentle nod. I dig into my soul, I find the shadows for which I am named. With one deep breath I lunge forward, my paws grazing along the metal floor. A deep growl starts in my stomach, and grows, in to my throat, erupting in to a sonic bark, as I let out the pulse of darkness. All around me wolves fall still, I'm pretty sure I haven't killed them. I looks to Nex for support, he had the same idea, as he his behind a wolf in human form as he lets the limp body fall to the floor. 'I can hear there pulse, the wolves are alive, however' he says pointing to the dust that scatters the floor. 'The vampires, not so much alive as the wolves' He says scratching the back of his head. He looks at me smiling as we walk over to Ivy.
:) :)
I hear Umbria yelling, telling me to hold my breath. And even though, she has lied to me for years I trust her. I take a deep breath, filling my lungs with air, as I feel the mist, like acid against my skin. Howls of pain and panic are alive in the air. I grimace, my face a mask of sadness, as I see a blazing white light shimmer through the air. Soon followed by a close to black, ray of darkness that I saw fly out in rings, that took out the last of the creatures. I saw Umbria turn to the boy that shot the bright light and hug him tightly. Both of there faces looked black and charred, there cheeks red under the soot. They run up to the cage, in the eyes of my sister I see relief, as her eyes shimmer green, as she takes a deep breath as looks at me. My mouth fights me with so many questions, and im sure she wont be able to see the logic in the way I will probably utter them out. I look at my sister and the monster she has become. Then I ask myself, aren't I a monster too?

New European Union pesticide legislation was passed this week with the goal of protecting human health and the environment in Europe. On first inspection one may think that this is a positive step, since there must be viable alternatives that do not adversely affect food production. Furthermore, one would assume that the EU would have conducted appropriate regulatory impact assessments to avoid any unintended consequences from occurring. You would be wrong on both counts. The new regulations not only affect food production but also threaten the public health initiatives in distant countries – mainly poor countries in Africa. Although the regulations seek to limit the use of insecticides for agricultural use in the EU, it overlooks the fact that insecticides are vital for disease control elsewhere in the world.
Environmental pressures from the North have resulted in chemicals characterised as public health insecticides (PHIs) not being used as widely as they should to control insect-borne diseases, thus adversely affecting the ability of poor countries to control these diseases. These new regulations compound the woes of poor individuals battling to come to grips with the devastating effects of malaria and other insect-borne diseases across the globe.
Malaria kills a child every thirty seconds in Africa. The majority of deaths world-wide, over a million each year, occur in children under the age of five and in pregnant women. Effective malaria control saves lives, prevents the trauma of unnecessary deaths in families, and improves local economies. Malaria sufferers have great difficulty in carrying out sustained work, which intensifies human misery and poverty in areas where the disease is prevalent. Malaria is thus not only a human tragedy; it's an economic one as well. In malarial countries it is estimated that the disease reduces per capita economic growth by 1.3 percent per year. This equates to approximately $12 billion in forgone income.
The only proven and consistent method of insect-borne disease prevention (where vaccines do not exist) is to control the disease vector, which in malaria is the mosquito. Even where an effective vaccine is available, insufficient vaccination rates can lead to disease outbreaks, which require vector control for containment. Vector control strategies involve the use of tiny amounts of insecticide that can be sprayed on the inside walls of houses in a process known as indoor residual spraying (IRS). Similarly, people can sleep under insecticide-treated bed nets (ITNs), including long-lasting insecticidal nets (LLINs), and stagnant water bodies where mosquitoes breed can be treated with a larvacide.
These vector control strategies are the most effective interventions that we have in our arsenal in the fight to control malaria-spreading mosquitoes. Indeed, no country in the world has ever eradicated malaria without the use of insecticides.
In the 21st century, it is reasonable to hope for rigorous, science-based regulations of chemicals that take into account the actual risks that substances pose to humans and the environment. Unfortunately, the new EU regulations create uncertainty and open the door for bias and political interference. For instance, a substance can be banned if it is deemed to interfere with the body's hormone system – known as endocrine disruption. However, since there is no agreed upon definition of endocrine disruption, the way is open for political interference for as long as solid scientific evidence is unavailable.
Almost all chemicals currently used for malaria control were developed for the agricultural sector and simply adapted for public health comprise approximately 1 per cent of the total market for pesticides. Considering how small this market is, it is highly unlikely that production of PHIs would continue if a product is banned for agriculture. If production did continue, it would be on a much smaller scale, causing the price of insecticides to rise – something that poor governments simply could not afford.
As insecticide resistance to the existing range of pesticides increases, public health programmes desperately need new, safe and effective chemicals. But new investment, research and development are unlikely to occur in a poor country with a poor regulatory regime. A Boston Consulting Group report estimates that currently it costs around $400 million to bring a new pesticide to market. These costs escalated by more than 500% in the past 20 years mainly due to the increasingly onerous regulations imposed around the world. You can argue that regulations are necessary and beneficial; but if they are ill-defined and open to bias, they impose costs that could far outweigh their benefits.
Restricting access to insecticides and discouraging the development of new chemicals exacerbates the scourge of malaria and other insect-borne diseases and the result is many more lives lost unnecessarily. Pressure must be brought to bear on all EU structures so that they consider the unintended consequences of any legislation they impose on public health outside the EU and ensure that their regulations are clear, predictable, unbiased and based on sound science.

I had a brain fart.
I had a brain fart.
I have heard various people say that you can use oxalic acid vaporization with honey supers on, and that it does not increase the OA content of the honey. Does anyone have more information about this?
Go to the page http://www.mellifera.de/engl2.htm
and look under
Solubility of wax and residues in honey
I must have missed it. Where does one purchase oxalic acid? Is there a brand name?
the ~ox-{ at www.singingfalls.com
I purchased mine for $6.00 at Lowes in the wood stripping, staining section. It comes in a small plastic pail, powdered form and labled "Wood Bleach". I don't recall the brand name. Home depot has a different kind of wood bleach that comes in liquid form and is NOT oxalic acid.
You can get oxalic acid from a photographic supply house. It may be more expensive but I would think the purity would be better.
To a great extent purity is not relevant. What really is the difference between 99.9 and 98%? Not much when it comes to food type applications. OA is naturally extracted so any adulterants would be present in nature and not likely to hurt anything. They would most likely only include oxides anyways, which are for the most part inert. One would think that food grade chemicals are of high purity but in reality they are some of the least purified. Compare the cost of reagent grade NaCl to table salt sometime, it costs about 100 times more and is 10 times more pure.
This is really kind of funny. I went to the best hardware store near here and also the farmers co-op and nobody could get me oxalic acid! Never even heard of it! Thanks for the input. To Lowes I go.
the ~ox-{ at www.singingfalls.com
mine is a DAP product from the paint section at the local True Value Hardware store. I think that if you ask for wood bleach you'll have better results than if you ask for oxalic acid. Some wood bleaches are not oxalic acid, so read the fine print! A friend of mine gets oxalic acid at the pharmacy---probably better not to ask for wood bleach there.
I'm sure I've been through Tiller but I don't recall it. Do you have anything resembling a hardware store there? Where do you shop for big items, Roseburg?...Medford?
Well I finally managed to acquire some oxalic acid in Medford. Lowes in Medford does not sell it any longer. Went here and there and my last effort to Ace Hardware 2 minutes before closing was successful Felt like purchasing a case just in case!
mattoleriver: There's a post office, a school and one small market in Tiller. That's it. Shady Cove used to have a hardware store but it went belly up. I'm 1 1/2 hours from either Roseburg or Medford in Umpqua National Forest. Maps to my place can be seen here: http://www.singingfalls.com/findus.html#Maps

This eye shadow has nice deep color; a little goes a long way which is nice. Over time I can see the colors blending in the container a bit because there it is so separation between the shades which just means carefully loading the shadow brush. Overall, I'm satsified with the purchase.3

EPA recognizes landfill methane projects
The U.S. EPA's Landfill Methane Outreach Program has recognized several landfill methane capture projects. Projects of the Year were given to the Jefferson City, Mo., Renewable Energy Project; the Altamont Landfill Resource and Recovery Facility, Livermore, Calif.; Ox Mountain LFG Energy Project, Half Moon Bay, Calif.; Sioux Falls (S.D.) Landfill & Poet LFG Pipeline; and the Winder Renewable Methane Project, Winder, Ga. The Kansas Department of Health and Environment was named State Partner of the Year, and the Community Partner of the Year was awarded to the Kent County Department of Public Works, Byron Center, Mich.
WEF joins with onsite wastewater group
The Water Environment Federation (WEF) and the National Onsite Wastewater Recycling Association (NOWRA) are collaborating on training, promoting new applications for onsite and natural treatment systems, and lobbying for consistent regulation for effective management and oversight. The partnership brings together the industry source for centralized wastewater treatment education and the national organization representing decentralized treatment systems. NOWRA staff and offices will relocate to WEF's Alexandria, Va.-based headquarters by spring.
SWANA concerned about proposed rule
The Solid Waste Association of North America says that the U.S. EPA's proposed Prevention of Significant Deterioration and Title V Greenhouse Gas Tailoring Rule would be cost-prohibitive for small solid waste disposal facilities. The rule targets facilities with emissions of more than 25,000 tons of carbon dioxide equivalents annually. It would require them to obtain permits that would demonstrate they are using best-available control technologies.
Missouri highway fatalities lowest since 1950
For the fourth year in a row, Missouri has seen a decrease in highway fatalities. Currently the number stands at 871 in 2009, almost 100 less than in 2008 and 31% less than in 2005, which saw more than 1,000 fatalities. Missouri DOT credits the decrease to the combined efforts — including law enforcement, education, emergency medical services, and road engineering enhancements — of highway safety advocates in the Missouri Coalition for Roadway Safety.
New conference for project owners

Obi Okeke Fusion Luxury Motors Obi Okeke Crooked Car Broker - sells Lemon Cars. Buyers and Car Collectors Be Carefull Chatsworth California
Does your business have a bad reputation?
Fix it the right way.
Corporate Advocacy Program™
I have recently purchased a luxury German car from Obi Okeke of Fusion Luxury Motors in Chatsworth, CA. Obi Okeke did not disclose to me that the car he sold had mechanical problems that continue to resurface, making my life a nightmare. Independent mechanics confirmed the serious nature of the concealled engine and transmission issues. I tried to contact Obi Okeke on numerous occassions, leaving voicemail messages, and sending email and letters.
Obi Okeke has not responded even when I told him that I would be filing a complaint with the Better Business Bureau and the CA DMV. I am hiring an attorney to help me rescind the transaction and recover my damages. I have learned that Obi was kicked out of the Auto Gallery where he was a manager, and that he has a horrible reputation among other exotic car dealers and car collectors. [continued below]....
I also know that I am not the only victim of Obi Okeke's dishonest and illegal car brokerage tactics. I have identified and spoke with 3 other other people that were scammed by Obi Okeke.
I want to warn others so that car enthusiasts can avoid the horrible experience that Obi Okeke is putting me through.
