Rihanna announces 2013 'Diamond' tour
The singer will play five stadium and arena shows as part of a massive world tour set to take place next year
Popstar Rihanna apparently forgot to close the tap in her luxury Savoy suite and flooded the hotel room leaving the carpets a soggy mess, it has been reported.
The incident took place last Sunday night after the 23-year-old star appeared on ITV1's X Factor.
A source told People magazine 'The room where Rihanna was with her entourage flooded when the bath taps were left on. They all left the room and when they came back the carpets were wet through. There was no lasting damage but it took a while to dry out. All of the party were hugely apologetic.'

Catalina 350 Refridgerator 2006 vs. 2004 Models
Did Catalina improve the fridge in the 2006 models. I know the worst problems seem to have occurred in the 2003 models, but was wondering if they increased the insulation and cured some of the leakage problems by 2006? I have been looking to buy a Catalina 350 and trying to make a decision between two boats one being a 2004 and the other a 2006 model yr. The fridge could be one deciding factor.
Thanks for any information, this is a great forum and I have learned alot.

A fifth new orca calf has been spotted swimming near Tofino off the coast of Vancouver Island.
Jennifer Steven of Tofino's The Whale Centre says she and her husband were called Wednesday to check on a mother and calf after seeing an orca swimming alone the day before.
Steven describes the moment she and her husband saw the pair.
"She was alone with this baby calf. It was almost like it was learning how to swim. It was coming up for one breath of air, and swimming around, just kind of erratically – playing actually. And the mom was slowly doing large circles coming up for one or two breaths every four minutes…and they were just together."
"We realized right away that this orca baby was brand new, had been born probably in the last 24 hours up behind Meares Island, so it was quite exciting."
Steven says the pair are transient orcas — not part of any endangered Southern Resident pod.
She says the baby, tagged as T-121-A1, looks both happy and healthy.

attaching a bottle cage to a frame that does not have a bottle cage mount screw.
Handy accessory that lets you mount a bottle cage or pump holder onto a frame that is not equipped with bottle cage screws. Easy to attach to most frames.
for bikes with only one cage holder this solves the issue perfectly and is non intrusive excellent purchase
Doesn't stay in place and keeps sliding down...after two minutes, it touched the chain wheel !
Thank you for reviewing the universal bottle cage mount, I have heard of this issue before but it usually because the straps haven't been pulled tight enough, I'd suggest to try that then if the problem still persists then return it to your local store with your receipt.
Rob Basnett b'Twin Product Expert DECATHLON
I mounted two 1kg water bottles to front forks. no slip despite doing stairs at speed, drop offs. if there is any slip i will come back and report. Just make sure you really stretch the link to make sure goes on as tight as possible. You can usually get it one more notch than you think. a good thing is that the bottle cage covers up the access to release it. So someone cannot easily steal it in an instant with no tools. You have to undo the bolts and remove the cage first! This is a little fiddly due to access (with allen keys) and would put thieves off. Fit my 32mm stants of my revs easily and would go bigger! Allows me to use a frame bag for bikepacking (great for storing heavy items) - and still carry plenty of water. Looks like it would fit quite small tubes too. Much better than the one Halfords sell as you cannot re-use the Halfords (I was told) you have breaky it to remove it (a special one off zip tie is used). With this one you can re-use on other bikes / move about any no. of times.
two 1kg water bottles to front forks. no slip
It is possible to mount both a water bottle and small pump on this and still not catch your legs on it as you pedal
No mark on the frame + Economical and practical

We're halfway through the recruiting calendar and Oklahoma stands at nine commitments right now for the Class of 2015.
A lot can and will change with the recruiting board, but here are the 11 most realistic targets the Sooners are pursuing.
It's a combination of being offered, having legit mutual interest and whether or not it's a commitment OU is going to take.
Arlington (Texas) Bowie offensive tackle Madison Akamnonu
Start with a commitment OU could pick up before the end of next month. He said he's set for his decision Aug. 24, and it's down to the Sooners and Texas Tech. He made his second trip to campus last weekend, and it's obvious there's a lot he likes about the program. It doesn't hurt that his father graduated from the school and now his mother is onboard as well.
Lawton (Okla.) High offensive lineman Jalin Barnett
There's a lot of these it seems every year where you find that in-state prospect early and sort of just wait it out until the commitment happens. The only realistic competition is from Arkansas and Oklahoma State and even that might be pushing it. It'll be up to Barnett when he wants to make the call, but there's no reason to think it will be to any other school than OU.
Midwest City (Okla.) High safety Will Sunderland
Much like Barnett, OU is in the driver's seat with the Scout 300 prospect. But unlike Barnett, there is some real competition for his services. The biggest threat is coming from Columbus with Ohio State, especially with a proposed official visit to the Horse Shoe for the showdown against Michigan. Sunderland, though, should see OU before that trip and after that trip, it's tough to see him leaving home.
League City (Texas) Clear Falls wide receiver John Humphrey/Aledo (Texas) High WR Ryan Newsome
Cheating here and combining OU's top two receiver targets. OU is in a better spot with Humphrey than Newsome but continue to say don't rule out the chance of the Sooners getting both at slot receiver. Notre Dame is by far the biggest competition for Humphrey, while Newsome will be a huge battle going into fall. Good news is each of them has already confirmed when they're making their official visit to campus.
Waco (Texas) Midway safety Kahlil Haughton
The waiting game continues for this four-star prospect. The battle still feels like it's between OU and Baylor. The Sooners have done just about everything they possibly can to help sway Haughton and his family. It definitely appeared Haughton's commitment would have happened by this point, but now it seems like it could be at least a few more weeks or months. Again, the waiting game.
Scooba (Miss.) Eastern Mississippi offensive lineman Jamal Danley
If Danley could have visited the campus earlier this month, he might be off this board because he'd already be committed. But he delayed the trip and has planned for an official visit when Tennessee comes to town. Don't be surprised if Danley makes the call after that visit, but it's simply going to be about making sure he gets to campus.
Pineville (La.) offensive lineman Cody Ford
This is one prospect that could be off the board the next time we do this because he could be among the OU commits. The biggest threat is LSU even though Ford has been committed to TCU for nearly the entire calendar year. Ford didn't get an LSU offer at the camp last weekend, which might be enough for OU to stay as the school to beat. Offensive line coach Bill Bedenbaugh has stepped it up with Ford in the last couple of months.
Dallas Skyline linebacker Anthony Wheeler
OU has the slight edge over Texas, but it's practically a case of 1a. and 1b. when it comes to the Sooners and Longhorns. Wheeler has seen everything he needs to with OU and the staff, but it feels like OU is going to have to survive at least one more Wheeler trip to Austin, either for an unofficial or official visit.
Columbus (Ohio) Franklin linebacker Anthony McKee
The key here will be to get him to campus. But unlike some of the other non-regional prospects, it does feel a trip to Norman could seal the deal instead of just putting the Sooners in the conversation. It's obvious he is developing a strong connection with linebackers coach Tim Kish, and OU is making a charge despite the lack of visit. The visit could end things nice and early.
Reiterstown (Md.) Franklin offensive lineman Patrick Allen
By default it feels like you have to put Allen in this bunch even if there still is nothing concrete to say Allen and OU are on the same page. Allen hasn't been bashful about talking up the Sooners and saying OU is among his top three schools. But still no wheels are in motion regarding an official visit to see just how strong that interest really is.
Missouri City (Texas) Marshall linebacker Cameron Townsend
Doesn't get much more clear-cut than this. Texas is in the lead with OU and Oregon State the other schools in his top three. He'll make official visits to all three schools this season and then make a decision. Townsend has been a frequent visitor to campus since the end of last summer, but it's going to take something extra to push ahead of the Longhorns.

Whether a business with limited foreign exposure, or a large multinational corporation with locations around the world, understanding the risks that a company faces outside of its home country can be a challenge. The organization must consider how best to mitigate and insure the risks in each country, and contemplate how a problem in one country could affect businesses in other countries.
To complicate matters, insurance legislation varies considerably by country, as does insurance premium tax, and failing to comply with local requirements can result in fines, penalties and tax complications. Add to these factors differences in language, culture and time zones, and it becomes clear that global businesses need an insurance advisor with the depth and breadth of resources to adeptly navigate through the maze.
More than 50 years ago RCM&D founded, with other select independent brokerages, the Assurex network. Today, known as Assurex Global, it is the world's premier network of independent insurance, risk management and employee benefits brokers - with over $28 billion in annual premium volume and more than 500 Partner offices over six continents.

RCM&D has the expertise to determine whether the international alternative is the best option available. We have vast expertise and experience in making significant placements in many major insurance markets around the world. Our employees regularly travel to London, Bermuda and other markets with, or on behalf of, our clients to meet with underwriters directly to ensure the best, cost-effective program.

There are not enough good things I can say about Laurin. She is magic with my children. I have 3 kids including one set of twins all under 6. She has the best disposition and handles the kids with such ease. She is calm, patient and never loses her cool. She's great at meal time and bed time. I have also left my kids with her when we have been out of town and trust her completely. She's a gem!

- Treat moderate to severe chronic plaque psoriasis (Ps) in adults who are ready for systemic therapy or phototherapy, and are under the care of a doctor who will decide if other systemic therapies are less appropriate.
NORTH CHICAGO, Ill., March 20, 2014 /PRNewswire/ -- AbbVie (NYSE: ABBV) today announced the initiation of a pivotal Phase 3 clinical trial that will evaluate the use of HUMIRA ® (adalimumab) as a treatment for fingernail psoriasis in patients with moderate to severe chronic plaque psoriasis, an area of unmet need. Currently there are no approved treatments for fingernail psoriasis. "Since treatment options are limited, we welcome research that evaluates new options for patients suffering from this disease and are excited to start evaluating adalimumab in this patient population," said Dr. Phoebe Rich, MD, Clinical Adjunct Professor of Dermatology at Oregon Health Science University. Psoriasis is a non-contagious, chronic immune disease that speeds the growth cycle of skin cells and results in thick, scaly areas of skin. Psoriasis can also affect the fingernails causing pitting, discoloration, loosening and irregular contour of the fingernail. 1 Although the prevalence of fingernail psoriasis in those with moderate to severe chronic plaque psoriasis is unknown, about 50% of the 125 million people world-wide with psoriasis have nail involvement. 2,3 The 26-week clinical trial is a multinational, double-blind, placebo-controlled study that is expected to enroll 200 patients with moderate to severe chronic plaque psoriasis with fingernail psoriasis. It will be conducted at approximately 32 sites worldwide, including the United Kingdom, Ireland, Germany, Greece, Belgium, France, Australia, Canada, Mexico, and the United States. The primary endpoints for the trial will be evaluated after 26 weeks and are based on advice received from regulatory agencies. The trial will assess the percent of patients who achieve a Physicians Global Assessment of Fingernail Psoriasis (PGA-F) of either "clear" or "minimal" and evaluate the percent of patients who achieve a 75-percent reduction in fingernail psoriasis, as defined by the modified Nail Psoriasis Severity Index (mNAPSI). 4,5 "For more than a decade, HUMIRA has served as an important treatment option for patients with chronic inflammatory diseases," said John Medich, Ph.D., vice president, Immunology Clinical Development, AbbVie.

On the sofa next to me, Michael was feeling the strain. His back ached from too much time in bed, his eyes stung from all the television he had watched, and there were at least two hours until dinner. He resorted to mental calculations of his earnings. 'Ten days done, pounds 1,000 in the bank; six days to go in the easiest job in London,' he droned. I gave him an uninterested nod and changed channels.
Michael and I were among a thousand 'patients' who passed through the drug research unit (GDRU) at Guy's Hospital in London last year. At pounds 100 a day, it is possible to earn pounds 1,400 for a fortnight's work. Work? I use the word loosely. A typical day in hospital consists of three meals, maternal nursing attention, limitless sleep and enough television to learn weather forecast theme tunes.
Established a decade ago, GDRU has surprisingly few British volunteers. More than 90 per cent of Guy's recruits are backpacking travellers and young tourists.
One such was Garvey, a self-styled traveller-cum-layabout South African with an MA. 'I've done trials for five years,' he said. 'I've never had a proper job and have no interest in a career. What's the point when this is the easiest money around?'
Garvey spent six months a year doing two trials in England and six months travelling on the takings. 'I'll do them for another ten years if they want me,' he said. The age limit for a volunteer is 40. At 28, Garvey had several years' slacking ahead of him.
Guy's does not advertise trials. Information travels the word-of- mouth highway across continents. 'More people know about London drug trials in South Africa and Australia than in Britain,' says Dr Jayson Dallas, a junior research physician. Of all the clinics travellers visit, Guy's is probably the most well-known and highly regarded. 'They're the most professional unit I've been to,' said Garvey. 'They explain everything clearly. I've never been sick. If the place didn't look safe I wouldn't do it.'
Five hundred recruits are turned away each year for failing rigid screening procedures designed to ensure recruits are of 'normal' health and will not react adversely to the drugs being tested.
Screening includes a comprehensive medical and physical examination with an HIV test that would normally cost more than pounds 200.
All drug courses have to be approved by an independent ethics committee and volunteers are informed of the risks they take. Doctors explain side-effects - in the worst cases dizziness, nausea or headaches - and answer any questions. Each recruit is given an instruction document which details the method and purpose of the study. If they are still uncertain, they can pull out.
On trial days the unit is less hospital ward than boys' boarding school dormitory: sweaty men slopping around in shorts or tracksuits, dozing off on sofas, talking sport in the common room.
The actual time giving blood and testing a drug is minimal. Each day is a losing battle against boredom, spent watching television and waiting for the next meal. The highlight of my internment was a curry followed by EastEnders.
Alcohol is prohibited throughout the course, though by some cruel quirk a pub is situated just across the street. I tried not to look at it. Various entertainment is provided to help tame the tedium: videos, video games, a bar billiards table. There are public telephones and visitors can come in the afternoons. I read every daily newspaper page to page, but by day three in the afternoons I was going mad.
Mercifully, my course was split up over three stays. Another group of volunteers, half-way through a continuous 16-day trial, had the glazed look of zombies. They might have earned twice as much, but they looked as if the extra would have to be spent on psychiatric treatment afterwards.
One avenue of entertainment was overlooked. Where were all the women? GDRU seldom do female studies because they require homoge5neous 'guinea pigs'. Although most drugs tested are ultimately used by women, research requires volunteers with a regular metabolism. Hormonal changes during a woman's menstrual cycle can alter results.
So we made do and joked with the nurses when they had time. They knew all our names, joined in games of Trivial Pursuit and did everything to make us feel comfortable. When we had to stay in bed they brought us our meals and set up a television set.
I was in a group of 12 testing a drug intended for treatment of multiple sclerosis. Despite the elaborate information we were given, taking the substance still scared me. Guy's commonly test anti-depressants and antibiotics. A multiple sclerosis trial was rare and somehow had frightening connotations.
I was given the dose three times - once for each visit to the unit. The dosage was a small percentage of that which an MS patient would normally receive. The pill was swallowed in the morning and blood and urine samples were taken at controlled times throughout the day. A cannula - a plastic tap-like valve - was inserted in my arm to make blood samples easier to take.
The effects of my drug were unspectacular: a slight headache that could have been caused by caffeine withdrawal or too much television. (Caffeine and exercise are also forbidden throughout a programme.) A week after my final visit, suffering no noticeable side-effects, I collected my cheque. It was that simple.
Not surprising then that some volunteers are turning professional. One Australian, completing his third trial at Guy's, has planned a visit to Berlin for a trial and will return to Guy's again in three months.
'I used to temp in a bank but that didn't pay,' he told me. 'This is the only way I've been able to make a decent living.'
The biggest danger 'professionals' face is ignoring recovery time. Guy's limit volunteers to three trials a year with a compulsory three-month break after each trial. Their reasoning is medically sound: blood taken during a trial is roughly equal to the volume taken in a standard blood donor session and a person can take up to three months to replenish those blood cells.
'Volunteers who don't follow the guidelines run a risk,' warns Dr Tim Mant, the unit's managing director. 'Those who don't wait the three months could become anaemic.'
There is also the danger that in overlapping courses new drugs will interact with chemicals not yet flushed out of the system. But, with clinics all over Britain and mainland Europe, there is no check on recruits running the gauntlet.
'There should be accredited units,' says Dr Mant. 'It's an odd situation in English law that you need to have a licence to give a drug to an animal but not so to a human being. There's nothing to stop someone setting up a unit on his own.'
In more than 10 years of research, Guy's has had what Dr Mant describes as 'two potentially life-threatening incidents'. One volunteer developed an allergic reaction to a drug resulting in severe neck swelling and blocking of the air passage. The patient received emergency medical treatment to reverse the process. The other involved a volunteer who passed out and required cardiac massage. In each case the patients survived without any after-effects.
Not so other clinics. A unit in Manchester closed down three years ago after a volunteer contracted hepatitis through infected needles. In Dublin, a volunteer had not told the unit he was having long-term treatment for schizophrenia. The trial drug reacted with the treatment drug and the volunteer died.
Dr Mant advises volunteers to ensure that any clinic they go to 'looks like a hospital' and has an ethics committee to control its courses.
Looking back, I could suggest a third proviso. To avoid death by boredom, book in during the next major televised sports event, say the European Football Championships. Dino, an Italy supporter from Cape Town, timed his trial for the World Cup and found it took his mind off worrying about the drugs. 'The only side-effect I had,' he said, 'was the stress of watching Italy lose.'
In an article 'This isn't going to hurt at all' (17 August) it was said that a drug research unit in Manchester closed down three years ago after a volunteer contracted hepatitis through infected needles. A subsequent official investigation found it likely that the virus, affecting five volunteers, was transmitted by blood to blood contact from an exceptionally infectious carrier but there was no evidence of the use of infected needles.

Halls Of Olympus
Zeus sat on the high perch of his golden throne, a lightening bolt held threateningly in one fist. Around him sat the many Gods and Goddesses, the rulers of Heaven and Earth, on their own thrones, gazing at the two men as they walked in, led by Hermes.
He grinned at their open awe, gazing over each of them. Zeus had swore innocent Eos had asked for only Ajax to come to speak to them. Studying them intensly, he recognized the second man as Ajax's companion called Cameo, a handsome hero died young. Turning his eyes from Cameo, Zeus seriously returned to Ajax. His eyes, a cold silver grey, were strong and shadowy, his hair a mousy brown, messy atop his head. The two were certainly different-Ajax was rugged and rough in appearance, while Cameo had a look of Immortals.
"Ajax," Zeus' voice shook the great Hall of Olympus. "Why is it that you have requested my council?"
The human man held his head high fearlessly and continued, his voice small against the thunder of Zeus, "Great Zeus...and Gods and Goddesses of Olympus." Ajax inclined his head slightly, his eyes holding Zeus' own confidently. "I have come here to ask a question...and something of a favor."
"A favor?" laughed the king of Gods, brushing a ringlet of his golden hair from his face. "What may that be? Wait...I may here the question first."
He noticed Ajax swallow, before continuing somewhat unnerved, "I came to inquire the where-abouts of my wife."
"Your wife?" Zeus replied incredulously. "What of her?"
Hera, his own wife and the Goddess of Marriage, placed her smaller hand on her husband's. "Zeus, do not be ignorant. His wife Elpida died years before his own death."
"Yes," he snapped, agitated, flicking her hand off of his. "I am fully aware of that, Hera. It is not in your place to call me 'ignorant' when you have troubles with that yourself." He chuckled slightly. Hera's face contorted in anger, and she stood from her throne at his side and stormed away, her heavy perfume floating to Ajax and Cameo as she blew by them. Shaking his head, Zeus returned to the humans, waving his hand "Do not mind her-continue. What is all this trouble over the wife? What could be the matter?"
Ajax shifted uncomfortably, furrowing his brow. "My wife...," he said. "...has died, as Hera has said. I have...died as well...and she is not...in the Elysian Fields. Where is she?"
He bit is lip as Zeus chuckled, "Ha! That is the most ridiculous question. Of course she is not in the Elysian Fields. She was not a hero, yes?"
"Yes...," Ajax replied, and then insisted hurriedly, "Where is she, the U-?"
"The Underworld." nodded Zeus.
"The Underworld!"
Zeus grinned, " Indeed, only the fortunate few are allowed in the Elsyian Fields. Otherwise, I believe it would be far too crowded."
"Crowded!" cried Ajax.
He laughed, "I am finding it funny that you are repeating the words that I say exactly!" A few other Gods and Goddesses chuckled.
"Is there something I can do!" declared Ajax angrily, making all turn and freeze as they glared at him.
Zeus' grin slipped from his face, "My brother Hades does not give up souls easily-they are his own property. Our deal was that he would rule the Underworld as I would rule the Heavens and Earth. He is a cruel, cold soul himself, and does not feel pity for many."
Ajax tightened his jaw, averting his eyes from Zeus'. Silence filled Olypus, as he felt the Immortal's eyes burning on him.
"That's ridiculous!" Cameo butted in. Ajax gave him a sharp look, but he continued. "Elpida is a fine soul, from what I have heard! Why must perfectly good persons be tortured in the Underworld for no apparent reason! It is not fair!"
Zeus raised his eyebrow cockily, almost amused as he inquired, "What say do you have in this, Cameo? Why, indeed, are you here if you are to shout like a fool in my Hall?"
"I am his friend!" he boldy replied, Ajax ran a hand over his face. "I will not him be roasted or laughed at like some joke by anyone, even the King of the Heavens! He is serious, would you listen to him and help him?"
"Cameo!" Ajax hissed under my breath, his heart thudding in his head.
Zeus stood from his seat, and the others did so as well. Ajax and Cameo took a few timid steps back. "I admire the courage of both of you," said the great God, his voice deep and monotonous. "I shall consider your dilema. For now, both of you will rest in Olympus for a while as we think." He paused, his voice becoming darker, "Though beware, next time you may feel punishment for words like those again."
Both nodded quickly, relief filling Ajax-there could be a chance of Zeus considering his offer. With a wave of his hand, Zeus opened a portal of sorts leading to quarters for the two.
"Thank you," began Ajax gratefully.
Zeus impatiently nodded his head and they proceeded through the portal, and it closed behind them like a door. A gentle, sweet smelling breeze ruffled the curtains hanging from the posts which made a small trellis atop a grassy knoll. Ajax strolled to the edge of the emerald grass and looked over the edge. An ocean of pearly white clouds was below, making him dizzy at the extraordinary height. Shaking his head, he returned beneath the trellis and lay himself out on the grass, his eyes beginning to close.
There was a chance....a chance that the Gods may help him return Elpida. Sighing, he drifted to sleep.


text: My new favorite cooking "toy" is my Anova Sous Vide machine…it's the ultimate Really Cool Kitchen Tool. Everything I've made so far (steak, chicken and pork) has come out perfectly every time with restaurant quality results…it's kinda idiot-proof! All you do is just attach the machine to any pot, add water, put whatever you want to cook in a sealed bag (any ziplock-type bag will do), drop it in the water and then press start, (you can also use the free wirelessly connected Anova Culinary app to find your recipe and cooking settings for exactly how you like it done, and hit 'Start' from your phone) and an hour later it's done! I know this sounds like a gushing ad, but it's not…I just love it that much. Shown here is my Sous Vide pork tenderloin. I just marinated it in teriyaki for a few hours, placed it in the sous vide bath and after an hour at 136°, took it out and seared it for 2 minutes in a screaming hot cast iron pan. It was tender, perfectly cooked from end-to-end and incredibly tasty.

text: I love to read and write lots of different things depending on my mood. But I've always been someone who prefers to have a female as the protagonist (with the exception of Harry Potter) because, being a girl, I can relate to them more. I like mushy romance as long as there's a story in it and it's not just all about that. I LOVE anything set in the past. The Victorian era and the Tudor period mostly, and things that involve the lives of real people, like Kings and Queens, mostly Elizabeth I and Henry VIII along with his many wives of course. My favourite series of books is the Harry Potter series, but I also love the Twilight series and the Tudor Court novels by Philippa Gregory. I am reading Time Traveler's Wife by Audrey Niffinegger at the moment.

About MeMy name is Ondra (Andre) I am a former professional athlete turned Firefighter and owner of One Dream Zero Distraction, LLC (www.1dzdelite.com). I came into modeling and acting by other people's request and my own interest to help build my business and test myself to see if I could do it. I found modeling to be far more challenging than I thought, however I also found it to be an incredible experience. My strength, and creativity as well as my athleticism allow me to have strong facial expressions and unique posing abilities. I believe my ability to slip into a character and my real life experience helps me easily convey emotions that can transition into acting and modeling. I am not easily scared or deterred, and I am up for just about any challenge in life or a photo shoot or in film. I consider myself an incredibly diligent, hard worker and love to learn new things. I am open to TF work especially in areas that will improve my port. I look forward to working with a more diverse range of photographers through MM and hope you will consider working with me.

Hey guys. Not a good day for me!
Driving home this morning and up popped a headlight bulb warning. Drove home and had drivers headlight out.. Done the following..
Swapped bulbs over (both bulbs work in passengers side)
Swapped ballasts (both ballasts work in passenger side)
Swapped the little rings that hold bulb in (both work on passenger side!)
So other than wiring I believe that's all there is isn't it?
Also, I'm not sure if it's since I have played around or doing it before hand (never noticed it) but drivers side indicator is now flashing fast! All bulbs work so not the usual. Hazards flash at normal speed. Just seems weird it's happened same time as the headlight bulb?
One last thing.. I had heavily condensated drivers headlight (one with the problems) I took the back cover off and let dry out with the lights on, as soon as I put the cover back on,within 20 minutes it was covered again.. So until I had time to look into blocked breather (going to be today) I drove with the cover off..
Could this have effected anything within the light itself?
Any suggestions greatly appreciated.

Author has written 3 stories for Hunger Games, Supernatural, and Teen Wolf.
Writing is my greatest passion. I'm leaning towards screenwriting and planning on going to film school:)
I'm busy with AP classes & my writing portfolio for college so sometimes it takes me awhile to get free time to update... or I'm super lazy. Reviews fuel my muse and I love feedback/criticisms (except random hate for the pairing-you known if you don't like it, don't read it). Feedback helps me become the best writer I can be so please read my fics & review them.
Ships: Dean/Jo, Destiel, Delena, Forwood, Sterica, Sterek, Derica, Erisaac, Everthorne, Matty/Jenna, Ryro, ArMor, Merthur, Morwaine, Violate, Captain Swan, Gendrya, Arya/Aegon, Clace, Wessa, Malec...
Favorite TV shows: Supernatural, Sons of Anarchy, Game of Thrones, Vampire Diaries, Teen Wolf, Freaks & Geeks, Merlin, Once Upon A Time, Suits, American Horror Story
Favorite Movies: There's like a billion!!!! But my all time faves are X-men, Donnie Darko, Moulin Rouge, The Lost Boys, Batman: Begins, What's Your Number?, The New Guy, The Phantom of the Opera, Lara Croft: Tomb Raider, Hook, Cry-Baby, Indiana Jones series, Terminator series, A Streetcar Named Desire, Pirates of the Caribbean series, and the list goes on endlessly...
Favorite Books: The Hunger Games, The Mortal Instruments, The Infernal Devices, Divergent, The Book Thief, To Kill A Mockingbird
Favorite Bands: Florence The Machine, Avenged Sevenfold, Alice in Chains, Bullet for My Valentine, Bleeding Through, Cary Brothers, Eighteen Visions, Poets of the Fall, Rise Against, Throwdown, The Ramones, White Zombie
I think the bad boy deserves to get the girl for a change like Damon, Dean, Derek, Tyler, Gale, or Pyro. It sucks that that usually never happens on TV or in movies or books. So in my stories the bad boys will get the girl because to me it seems that they always love the girl more than the good guy. Plus, they're usually the hotter one;)
BTW, One Night has gotten 13,585 hits so thank you to all the wonderful readers and reviewers out there. I was literally mindblown when I saw the charts. It felt so good to know that my first story ever has done so well, and it gives me so much hope about my writing and was just what i needed. I literally wanted to cry when I saw those numbers! I LOVE YOU GUYS!!! (3/12/12)

If you take the Hurtigruten ship from Kirkenes back South to Bergen, you will doubtless be offered a trip to the "UNESCO World Heritage site on the island of Vega in the archipeligo.
The excursion takes you off the Hurtigruten ship and puts you on a small boat which takes you through endless low skerries for over an hour to...
Explore the island by bike Take a boat trip and visit Hav hotellet for an execellent meal. Be prepared for cold weather in the summer. Tourist information at Gladstad will help you out or ask the locals. To get there ferry from Horn outside Brønnøysund approx 1 hour or hurtigbåt from centre of Brønnøysund
We had wished to visit Vega for some time. The Archipelago is on the Unesco list, and deserve it. The landscape with a lot of small islands is unique and worth a visit. You can take a large ferry either from north (Tjøtta) or from south (Horn). Or a smaller boat from Brønnøysund without bringing your car. Taxi or minibus...
Not a lot of people knows that Vega is a Unesco Heritage Site since 2004 due to the unique relationship between the islanders and the eider ducks (!). A small museum at Nes on the north coast of Vega shows and explains this extraordinary relationship which protects the migrating eider ducks and in return earns the people valuable down.
We were there at the end of August on an excursion from Sandnesjoen. We came there by Hurtigruten ship. The trip in the boat to Nes on Vega was beautiful. The small museum on the eider ducks and their relation with the people was very interesting. Local Kari was very informative. We loved the tour. Spend a couple of hours...

Located in the perfect Sunday morning area of Clapham Abbeville Village the Craft kitchen is where I decided to get rid of my hangover and visit for a boozy brunch. I was expecting it to be a lot more expensive than it was but I was pleasantly surprised to see a glass of much needed Bucks Fizz was only £4. I cannot go to brunch without order Eggs Benedict but the allure of the Craft Breakfast Burger almost won me over. I did see someone order this and I think I would have went home straight after and slept right through to Monday after it.
The Eggs Benedict were classic and the bacon was wonderful. I would recommend getting the fresh orange juice too which comes in a generous portion.
I will be visiting Craft Kitchen again for dinner after they impressed me this Sunday Brunch.

Author's note: This story came flying in out of left field. Sparked by an E/O drabble word that never existed. Ha! The non-existent word -- 'Drift' -- the actual word, Alex -- 'Ditch' --
I don't need glasses….just need to squint harder…LOL…Thank you for the push of the muse, E/O….and to you for reading!
All I could hear was the thrumming of my heart, violently beating between my ears -- faster and faster.
Was I still breathing?
I didn't know.
My outstretched hand locked in place, feet frozen, mind physically doing all the work.
I didn't fight the demon blood; letting it drift through my veins. Raging through every nook and cranny.
I'd waited a lifetime, would lose everything, but couldn't worry about that.
I became aware of a distant voice calling out my name.
Soft, not angry.
Pleading, begging, afraid for me.
I felt a twinge of pain-- heartache.
I was burning up inside. The Terminator, Van Damme, and Darth Vader all rolled into one jam session.
Two different destiny's meeting at the same time.
Mine to kill -- hers -- to die.
Dean called for me from behind the heavy wooden door -- again and again. His pleading becoming all consuming, distracting. I was near the breaking point, tempted to stop, but I couldn't. I'd come this far. Compelled by the strange, evil force to finish what I'd started. I steadied my stance, boots chuffing marble, arm reaching further outward. My heart rate increased ten fold; I focused less on hearing and more on killing. Blocking Dean and the rest of the world out.
My brother's hoarse voice did a slow fade.
My blood spasmodically beating -- absorbing.
Standing before the alter, something weird happened. My eyes stung, and an involuntarily thin fold of black skin flipped down to cover them. Like a protective coating, yet, I could still see -- my visual sensory clearer than ever --super human.
After what felt like hours, but was truly only seconds, I easily blinked away the black skin. Lilith lay dead on the floor. Dripping blood and gore. But, something was wrong, and that wrong reverberated deep inside the temple floor. Marble shook, and cracked open, a geyser of suffocating sulpher, heat, and centuries of decay burst forth. I'd exhumed the grave of every evil thing -- ever.
I choked on the stagnant air that swirled with the images of eroding faces, and mangled bodies. Ruby had lied. Played me like a fool, invaded my soul, and I'd let her. I'd broken the last seal. Set him free -- there was no worse act.
Ruby stood on the edge of the pit, looking down, her face beaming, split by a smile. With the last of my strength, I took two wobbly steps forward and shoved the bitch back into hell's toaster.
Flames hissed. Black smoke shot higher, but that didn't stop me. I stepped closer. Teeter-tottered on the edge of a nightmare, peering at the nuclear reactor -- a curling, burning, river far below. I wasn't smiling. Wasn't afraid. I could still stop this. Stop Lucifer before he found his way out of his rat hole. I took in a breath, preparing myself. I'd tumble down the hellhole. Fight the demon worm in hand to hand combat -- through out eternity.
I heard the wooden door crash open.
"Sam, get away from there!"
Dean rushed to my side.
With one nudge, my brother shoved me away from the pit, landing my ass to the floor.
Our eyes locked.
The heels of Dean's boots resting on the edge of hell.
Dean stiffened, waved his arms, frantic to gain his balance.
For a moment he did, perched on the edge of damnation.
I tired to move, reach my hand out to him, but my body was one tall, liquid nothing -- like melted cheese on a stick.
Dean's hands wind-milled, his eyes holding onto mine.
I tired to call out to him, but no sound left my open mouth.
Dean glanced over his shoulder, fear flooding his eyes as he faced hell once again. He turned back to me -- one last, piercing, and fear-filled look before going over the edge.
Another dead loved one -- because of me.
A worthless, voiceless, 'I'm sorry,' screamed through my heart, burned my throat, melted what was left my soul.
I'd done everything wrong. My whole life…wrong.
I'd lied. Disobeyed. Broken the 66th seal. Sent my brother to hell.
I was the epitome of evil -- high octane.
The nightmare faded, but reality lived on. I didn't get to execute my dream-plan. Dean and I hauled- ass out of the Convent, and now only a few hours later were held up in a cheap motel room.
My eyes snapped open to the sound of a distant train whistle and the smell of a burning cigarette floating in through the motel's open window. I lay there in the dark, starring up at the ceiling, watching a monster-sized roach crawl across the cracked plaster. The bug stopped and appeared to stare down at me.
Roaches were on everyone's black list. A plague. An infestation. The foot soldiers for everything ugly, unclean, vile, disgusting, and hideous in this world. Something I should stomp with my shoe, crush with a napkin, exterminate with a can of bug spray
Something -- like me.
I lay unmoving, listening to Dean's heavy snoring, watching the roach scuttle full-speed away -- free-- unharmed -- unaccountable.
My wish had come true. I didn't need a cursed coin, rabbit's foot, feather, or even the demon blood to get the job done. It was me. Always was just me.
Lilith was dead -- gobs of red showing through white. The torment Dean and I had lived through for years should have been destroyed along with her. Hope restored -- what hope? Was there every any? I had become the thing I always feared of becoming. No deprivation chamber, no matter how long held there, would ever cleanse me of the evil black thing I'd become.
There was no second chance, and everything that should have been was nothing more than a crumpled, strangled dream.
I wanted to feel numb, devoid of everything, but it was still there -- that evil something. Trapped inside me. An echo -- a bloodthirsty son of a bitch -- slammed into a dark corner of my soul -- waiting -- waiting for another time, another opportunity to screw with my life, with humanity.
I wanted to be a different man then who I was. I wanted to be taken away, made whole, made human again. But the evil, dark-sided thing living inside of me -- spun round and round at pell-mell speed…there was no touching it, seeing it, pushing or ripping it out.
There was nothing -- just nothing.
I'd never be the same person, Jess loved -- was I ever that man?
In doing what I thought was right, killing Lilith, I'd let out the biggest cockroach of them all -- Lucifer. And where there was one roach -- hundreds more would follow.
How could I ever make this right?
I couldn't run. I couldn't hide. How can you escape the big, ugly thing inside of you? Be like trying to detach from your own shadow.
How could I ever live in a world of evil -- a world I created.
I was fairly certain -- I couldn't. I wanted to just quit, simply stop. Go numb, lights out. No heaven. No hell. Just an empty, hollow husk of nothingness -- deleted.
I whimpered quietly, scrubbing a tear out of the corner of my eye.
Lilith wasn't the demon that needed to be dropped -- I was.
What could I do?
I could flip-out. Do something drastic, surprised that I hadn't already.
I could feel the evil, tingling, burning, a constant reminder. Would the ugly thing even let me destroy myself? My breath quickened, and I struggled to keep quiet as thoughts rolled over me like a giant wave. I was a wooden rowboat that sprung a leak, sinking in an ocean of nothingness, dashed against the jagged rocks of my own inner storm.
The breath was knocked out of me, fatigue, emotional and otherwise setting in.
I could bash in a mirror, soak myself in hooch -- light a match, crack open a couple bottles of pain pills, thrust a knife in my chest, sink a bullet in my brain, find a giant can of cosmic Raid, maybe drive the Impala off a cliff, or…
"No." The simple word floating out of the darkness startled me.
For a moment, the room filled with intense, tomb-like silence.
"No, what?" I whispered, being sure not to take my gaze away from the ceiling.
"No, Sam, you are not checking out."
"I never said…"
"You don't have to. I know you, Sam. We'll figure this out."
"How? Prayer? Crystals? Chants?" I threw an arm across my eyes. "Dean…I'm a mo …"
"No, Sam!" Dean growled. "No, you're not," Dean softened. "You're giving it too much power. Letting it consume you. I know this thing has a hold on you. Gawd, Sammy, I know. But, remember what dad taught us. A Winchester doesn't run and hide from the big bad fugly -- hoping it won't get you."
"That's the problem, Dean, I can't escape this. What else can I do?."
"Sam, we stand and fight and kick its ass! I'm going to get you back, Sam. Push that son of a bitch out of you." Dean paused taking in a shaky breath. "Dude, I swear it," Dean said in a renewed tone. A tone full of a compassion and strength that I'd never heard come from him before. "Sammy." We both turned our heads in each other's direction, eyes locked through the dark space between us. "Promise me." Dean's eyes shown bright. "Promise me, Sam, you'll let me try."
I was silent a moment. I could feel something shift. See something, where there was nothing. Dean was asking me to take a major leap of faith, and in a fraction of a second, I realized something -- my brother -- he'd already jumped off that mountaintop before me. I took in a breath and simply followed. Dean would fight and do all he could. He was tough. Fearless. Determine. And I would match him step for step, fight by his side. Dean had a power all his own, always did. And if we couldn't do it -- beat this thing -- he would do what was right. With tears in his eyes and pain in his heart -- he would do it, and I'd help him.
"I promise." I nodded.
I owed my brother that much.
The end.

It's easy to understand how US elections bamboozle commentators from this side of the pond: everything about them is bigger, louder, shinier and faster than our own pitiful and apathetic shows of hands. And the 2008 election is already being flagged as a climacteric in the affairs of the Republic. Obama is talked up as a mighty wind of change that will sweep all before him; Clinton, while accepting the heavy mantle of "competence", nonetheless presents herself as a thorough repudiation of bad old Bush.
But perhaps because I'm an Anglo-American myself, I'm never altogether taken in by all the hype. I wonder quite how much Brits really understand the extent to which US elections depend on a culture, not of reason, but emotion; and on a counting, not of votes, but of campaign donations. The best description of American campaigning still seems to me to be Kafka's, in his novel Amerika. Kafka brilliantly captures the razzamatazz of US electioneering - and yet he never set foot on the continent. For what he understood intuitively is that this is showbusiness, while all successful American political stars tend either to be demagogues or the puppets of sectional interests.
I'm not convinced Hillary Clinton possesses the vision to transcend her sectional interests - but nor do I believe Obama's undoubted vision will carry him beyond his own.
Don't be fooled. Much may be made of Obama's stand against the Iraq war, but it's still the economy that counts, unless you're a stupid idealist. Forty per cent of the electorate cite it as the most important issue, against 20 per cent for Iraq.
Rather than watching the polls, it's better to watch the donations. There are terrific levels of disclosure in the US system: with a few keystrokes you can find out that, as of last quarter, Bill Gates donated equal (small) amounts to both the Obama and Clinton campaigns. Let's see who Gates ups the ante on after Super Tuesday, let alone any of the other moguls who control the heights of the US economy.
It is the genius of American electioneering to present the political process as a naked encounter between candidate and voter. But the reality is that the man or women who would be emperor is wearing at least two sets of clothes. Make no mistake: everything may change - but it'll still be business as usual.

A couple of days back I stumbled upon blueberry muffin recipe using maple syrup instead of sugar. It also used a considerable quantity of whole wheat flour and ground flax seed. I decided to incorporate some of these changes in the already popular vegan blueberry muffins I have in this blog and I was very pleased with the result and decided to share it with you all.
If you have tried the original vegan blueberry muffins I have here, I'm pretty sure that you are going to love this one too because taste wise and texture wise it is pretty much the same but this new version is healthier than the old one. Now who wouldn't love this! I used whole wheat pastry flour instead of a combination of whole wheat flour and all purpose flour. Since I have baked quite a lot with whole wheat pastry flour we didn't miss the white flour in the recipe. The pastry flour gave a nice texture and nutty flavor to the soft and delicate muffins. It wasn't too sweet either. Just perfect.
Vegan Whole Wheat Blueberry Muffins Recipe
|Prep Time
|Cook Time
|15 Mins
|20 Mins
|10 muffins
- 1/4 cup Ground Flaxseed
- 1 and 3/4 cups Whole Wheat Pastry Flour
- 1 and 1/2 teaspoons Baking Soda
- 1/2 teaspoon Cinnamon
- 1/4 teaspoon Salt
- 1 cup Almond Milk
- 1 tablespoon Apple Cider Vinegar
- 1/4 cup Vegetable Oil
- 1/2 cup Maple Syrup
- 1 teaspoon Vanilla Extract
- 2 teaspoons Orange Zest
- 1 and 1/2 cups Blueberries (fresh or frozen)
- As needed Sugar for sprinkling on muffin tops (optional)
- Preheat oven to 375F/190C for 15 minutes. Line a muffin tin with paper liners and grease it well with non stick cooking spray.
- Mix together the almond milk and vinegar; set aside.
- In a large bowl combine together the ground flax seed, flour, baking soda, cinnamon and salt.
- In a medium bowl, whisk together the maple syrup, oil, milk mixture, vanilla extract and orange zest.
- Make a well in the dry ingredients and stir in the wet ingredients with a rubber spatula until just moistened. Fold in blueberries.
- Scoop the batter into the prepared muffin cups; about 3 tablespoons in each. Sprinkle the tops with sugar.
- Bake the muffins until the tops are golden brown and a toothpick inserted in the center of the muffins comes out clean which is about 15-20 minutes. I took out mine after 17 minutes.
- Transfer the tin to a cooling rack and leave it there for 5 minutes. Then remove the muffins out of the tin and let it cool completely.
- If you are not able to find whole wheat pastry flour, then you can use 1 cup of whole wheat flour and 3/4th cup of all purpose flour as mentioned in the original recipe.
- If using frozen blueberries, do no thaw it because it will bleed.
- I guess you could use any non dairy milk instead of almond milk.
- If you are a spice fan you can use up to a teaspoon of cinnamon.
- Since we prefer mildly sweet treats, I did not sprinkle sugar on top of the muffins.

Always i made cakes with all purspose flour.
I have a request to u. Can you post some Indian version of
of pastries of any flavour.
The muffins look soo soft and airy can't believe they are vegan 🙂
Congrats Madhu, for completing 3 years of blogging. Wishing you many more. Muffins looks delicious and liked this healthy version.
Muffins looks super fluffy and gorgeous..
Can we use regular milk instead of almond milk?

Pizza for Sarah
Ditching the motorcycle and hitching a ride on a farmer's cart I make my way into Verdas. Even though I'm the creator the capital city of Vervelle it is still impressive to see. Though based upon a walled medieval city, it's not nearly as cramped. I didn't want my people living in filth, even if they only bath once a week. The main road, with gutters, winds up the hill slowly making its way to where the fortress stands upon the cliff.
I jump off the cart in the market section of town and wish the Farmer well. Tossing him a coin, I smile at the expression on his face. You'd think I'd just given him a fortune, then again I probably had. I haven't developed a monetary system for this place yet. I just know they use coins.
Making my way up the hill, I navigate by instinct alone. The city shifts perceptibly as I walk; a hazard of planning the layout as I go. At last I am in the Scout Quarter and see the door emblazoned with a Phoenix. Knocking I shifted back into more modern clothing and manifested a pizza box.
"Good day," Sarah answered the door.
"I believe someone ordered a pizza," I smiled at her astonishment.
"It's hot and fresh, straight from Mike's Pizza Parlor."
Sarah shook her head. "I'm either dreaming, or the Gods really do favor me."
"You're not dreaming." I enter the small house and make my way to the kitchen.
"Who's not dreaming?" Jason enters from the back door, clearly just having come back from training. I can see six other men filing in behind them.
"Hm, I think I'll we'll need more Pizza."
"Why? I have plenty of stew," Sarah asks eyeing the Pizza box.
Mathew moans, "Not again."
"Oh knock it off Mat," I give him a good whack to the shoulder. "We all know you like her cooking."
Mathew glares at me. "Do not? And who are you to say I do?"
"Oh who I am is not important," I wave my hands dismissively. "It's what I've brought that's important." I open the box of Pizza that now has two more underneath it. I love being in a world I've created.
"What's that?" everyone but Sarah wants to know.
"Pizza," Sarah murmurs as she grabs a slice, "hot and fresh and from Mike's." She closes her eyes and savors the flavor.
Jason looks at me, then at Sarah and then at the food I brought. "Pizza?" Sarah nods as she takes another bite. "Well I always wondered why you talked about it so much." He takes a slice for himself.
Soon the whole group is chowing down and I have to make two more boxes appear. I perch on the counter next to Sarah and watch.
"So, um, who are you?" Sarah asks as she licks her fingers. "You seem familiar, but I can't place you. You look like you're from my world."
"Not quite," I respond. "I come from a very similar world off which your world was based. And of course this world is based in my world's history, though I've got a few different centuries mixed in."
"So you are?" Mathew asks again.
I grin, "Think of me as the Gods' God." That gets a few shocked looks.
"Oh," I jump down from my spot, "and when you defeat General Wholawski, I promise I'll bring Cake, Ice Cream and more Pizza."
I disappear by going invisible. I can't help grinning at the whispers that going around. Sadly I'll have to erase this memory from their minds so the Vervellian trilogy can continue, but…
It's fun to be the God in my created worlds. Rewarding my characters is my favorite part.
[Sarah's been in Protagonize Surgery and she is of course the main character in Sarah's Pheonix and Phoenix Rising, the question is, how would medieval characters really respond to Pizza. Well in my head they like it! :} Elorithryn]

The Wise Man - Light
So I stand on the snow covered window-ledge, contemplating the drop into the drifts far below.
"That'll be some drop, my boy," the Wise Man says, sitting on the ledge beside me. "And that snow seems awfully cold."
"I don't care," I tell him. "I can't even feel the wind blow, can't feel the snow fall, can't feel what should be heat behind me. I can see it, sure, and I know it should be there, but I just, I jus-" I choke on my words as the Dark seems to loom towards me, its talons reaching out for me. I turn to look at the Wise Man, the fear of death and the fear of living raging inside me, looking for the answer. Longing for the right thing to do.
The Wise Man says nothing, simply points out at the sky. Beyond the heavily falling snowflakes, the Dark seems to grow, until there's no escape from it; even the white of the snow has vanished.
Then, in an instant, a shard of light pierces through, then another, and another. The Dark vanishes, bellowing with rage as the sun rises, lighting up the world, setting the ground ashimmer. My hair flaps about in the breeze, and I can feel it! The frozen air bites at my cheeks, and it is wonderful. I take in a breath of pure air, and all the smothering apathy I was once engulfed in vanishes. A snowflake falls into my empty palm, and I swear I have not seen anything as beautiful.
I turn to look at the Wise Man again, but he's gone. Instead, I hear an echo on the wind.
"It's always darkest before the dawn."
But it's getting nippy now; time to go back inside.

WQXR's The Washington Report
David Sanger, chief Washington correspondent for The New York Times, joins Kerry Nolan to discuss the protests in Cairo, Egypt. For a week now, protesters have been calling for the resignation of President Hosni Mubarak who has ruled the country for the last 30 years. Sanger weighs in on who could be poised to take his place and why the U.S. response to the protests has been a careful one.

With last year's backup quarterback, Marc Bulger, not expected to return next season, the Ravens wanted to select a quarterback at some point in the 2011 draft.
They got one, but the question is whether he'll stay a quarterback at the pro level.
Said quarterback is Virginia Tech's Tyrod Taylor, a pure athlete who could evolve into a wide receiver in the NFL. Taylor went through the pre-draft process auditioning only as a quarterback, but some teams reportedly consider him as a versatile guy who could best be used in a spot other than under center.
That said, Taylor's passing numbers improved each season at Virginia Tech. His senior year, he threw for 2,743 yards and 24 touchdowns, while tossing just five interceptions. He also added 659 rushing yards and five touchdowns on the ground.
Taylor doesn't really have the build of a traditional NFL quarterback (he's 6-foot-1, 217 lbs.), and his accuracy has come into question. Scouts also believe he telegraphs too many of his throws.
But he's considered a good character guy and hard worker. We'll just have to wait and see at what position he gets most of his work.
