Can walk at work with nothing, but use the cane, a rolling walker or a wheelchair depending on the distance. I only wish the Hurry Cane came in pink istead of only in black, drat.

Anyway, for me it works better than a regular cane, but maybe it's simply not for everyone and it is not as stable as a quad cane would be.

I don't work for the manufacturer either. As you were about the storm though. Rainy with bad wind here in NE Ohio.

I live just outside of Boston and so far, we have a windy rain storm, but not a lot of rain. The rain we do have is going sideways. The storm is a lot worse toward the coast with the whole tidal effect.

It could be worse. We could be on the snow side of the storm. They are talking about feet of snow falling in Virginia, I believe.

My daughter is a surgical assistant to a group of dermatologic surgeons. She HAD to go in today. Got there and sat for two hours without power. She then texted me and said that the power was back on and she had to go and assist with an "emergency botox injection" followed by an equally emergent blephoroplasty.

Katy Perry Gives Bruce Willis a Few Hosting Tips in New "SNL" Promo
They've been rehearsing all week for their gig at "Saturday Night Live" this weekend, and Bruce Willis and Katy Perry joined forces for a silly promo clip.
The "Story of Us" hunk lead off, "Hi I'm Bruce Willis and I'm hosting 'Saturday Night Live' this week with musical guest Katy Perry."
Sporting a saucy look on her face, Perry added in, "Well, my hosting tip #1 is show some skin," as she flaunted a black bustier-style top.
Pointing to his bald head, Bruce asked, "See?" Annoyed, Katy replied, "Oh, yeah, you're good then."
Check Bruce and Katy out tomorrow night (October 12) for what's sure to be a great time.

Lebanese singer Carol Samaha recently completed filming the music video for her new song "Ya Rab" (Oh My God), alongside Lebanese singer Marwan Khoury, according to Mazika.com.
Production of the video, shot on location in the Lebanese mountains, cost nearly half a million dollars.
She selected Khoury for the role since he wrote and composed the song, said Carol.
The new clip is produced by Terri Ferry from France, who also produced Carol's song "Za'alni" (He Made Me Mad). Carol made sure the new clip is sufficiently romantic to ensure its success.
She even dances barefoot to add charm to the clip, based on faith and how destiny determines who we love.

TSI Nanoparticle Surface Area Monitor (NSAM) Model 3550 has been developed to measure the nanoparticle surface area deposited in different regions of the human lung. It makes use of an adjustable ion trap voltage to match the total surface area of particles, which are below 100 nm, deposited in tracheobronchial (TB) or alveolar (A) regions of the human lung. In this paper, calibration factors of NSAM were experimentally determined for particles of different materials. Tests were performed using monodisperse (Ag agglomerates and NaCl, 7–100 nm) and polydisperse particles (Ag agglomerates, number count mean diameter below 50 nm). Experimental data show that the currents in NSAM have a linear relation with a function of the total deposited nanoparticle surface area for the different compartments of the lung. No significant dependency of the calibration factors on particle materials and morphology was observed. Monodisperse nanoparticles in the size range where the response function is in the desirable range can be used for calibration. Calibration factors of monodisperse and polydisperse Ag particle agglomerates are in good agreement with each other, which indicates that polydisperse nanoparticles can be used to determine calibration factors. Using a CFD computer code (Fluent) numerical simulations of fluid flow and particle trajectories inside NSAM were performed to estimate response function of NSAM for different ion trap voltages. The numerical simulation results agreed well with experimental results.

Warning: Do not buy kit H416 from BATInc.net
Hey guys,
I just want to give you a heads up about BATInc.net's H416 kit for the Focus.
It does NOT fit behind my stock 16" wheels. I contacted Eric at BAT atleast three times regarding this kit, asking about fitment questions behind my stock wheels. He assured me every time I called that the kit had been tested with every stock 16" Focus wheel he had found.
So I ordered the kit. The 253mm to 300mm upgrade kit with the two-piston PBR calipers and stainless-steel braided brake lines.
Out of the box, the kit looked pretty nice. I was surprised that the parts were wrapped in UPS bags, but appreciated that the parts were packaged with the heaviest weight parts at the bottom: rotors with calipers on-top, adapters and miscellaneous hardware on top of those.
So with glee, I waited for last weekend to come. On Saturday (June 18, 2005), I started on the kit. I put my car on jackstands and removed the wheels. The first things to remove were the calipers. Since I wasn't intending to reuse the calipers or hoses I just let them hang out of the way.
After removing the calipers and rotors I spent a lot of time looking at the steering knuckles. The pictures that come with the kit are somewhat grainy but luckily I had my trusty FocusFanatics issue handy. Using a 4 1/2" grinder (I don't have a sawz-all) I cut away the top caliper mount. ( I did end up having to cut more material away later for the PBR caliper's bracket to mount onto the new caliper bracket).
Once the upper mount was cut away I removed the other 'horn' on the bottom of the steering knuckle. The material cut quickly, probably 10 minutes per side for that portion.
After measuring the distance between the strut bolt and the new caliper's mount, I drilled the knuckle with a 31/64" bit. The kit recommends at 15/32" bit, but no one in my area seemed to sell one so I settled for a bit that was 1/64" oversize (as specified in the kit, if the bolt hole was tight I could slightly enlargen it). No problems there.
Once everything was test-fitted together loosely without blue loc-tite I decided I couldn't wait to put the wheels on. I put the driverside wheel on but it didn't want to seat on the hub. I pushed and heard scratching sounds. At this point, I figured that maybe the caliper wasn't tightened down so I removed the wheel and found that I had in fact tightened everything enough.
Trying the wheel again, I made an effort to try to seat the wheel on the hub. I was able to, with some effort but found that the wheel wouldn't want to lay flat on the hub face. I figured that to be normal so I pushed and held the wheel against the hub and turned the wheel. I heard more scratching sounds and at this point I started on a tirade of expletives that would have made my grandmother do a somersault in her grave.
So I decided that if it's going to rub that I should atleast find out where. I gritted my teeth and turned the wheel, knowing that the inside of my wheel would get all scratched to hell. Then I removed it, and found that the caliper was not rubbing in just one place but more than one.
To accurately describe where it's rubbing I need to explain how the inside of the wheel looks. There is an angled flange that goes around the inside of the wheel. It is probably at a 45 degree angle or so. The caliper cooling fins are grinding on the flat part of that flat (probably 1/4" in on the flat) and the top of the front of the caliper (the front angled edge) is scraping on the wheel as well.
Another round of expletives made my grandmother do a few more somersaults.
I called BAT twice this week, trying to resolve the issue. The first time I called at 4:48PM EST and was told that the techs were gone. The second time, I spoke to I believe Eric. I explained that this kit does NOT fit my car. I also explained that I was extremely upset because I do not want to plus-size the wheels on my Focus and want to retain the stock 16s. His reply was that the kit has been "tested with all Focus 16" wheel he had found" and that the kit had worked with all of them. Their website does state this fact, requiring "16 inch wheels or larger".
Then he asked me what wheels I have, and I told him the '04 model with the slightly indented line down the center. He said, "well, we have this kit on our '01 and it works fine." Now, to be honest I could really care less if this kit fits on a 1963 MG. It doesn't fit behind MY wheels, so don't give me BS about how it fits 'your' car.
Then his advice (his great tech support) was to grind on the caliper fins until the wheel fit without rubbing. When I told him the other location of the grinding he said I should grind there too.
Now, I'm not being an ******* but I truly believe that I should not have to pay $682.56 for a kit that requires "grinding to fit". Had I known that I would have to grind the piss out of my calipers I would have bought the SVT kit from a member here.
So, right now I'm in the middle of a chargeback situation with BAT Inc, as it appears I cannot use the kit with stock-sized wheels. I highly recommend to members of FocusFanatics.com that you look elsewhere for a brake upgrade kit. Customer service should go beyond telling your customers to "grind until it fits".
Ridiculous. I can provide pics upon request.
Focus Fanatic
provide pics cuz i wanted to do this kit plus the front kit aswell why dont you just go get some tight ass 17 bro they are the best sized rim for handling anyway plus stockers dont really look that good anyway shit
Focus Jr. Enthusiast
Hey qweesy,
Here are the pictures you requested.
Pictures 1 and 2 show the condition of the box when it arrived. Pretty good. After first I laughed because I thought those were ricer stickers, but really it is just a well-packaged box with their logo.
Picture 3 shows the driverside caliper after grinding. It still doesn't fit so I am assuming that the fitment issue is worse than I originally suspected. I tried to take off material in a circular pattern to maintain strength. Remember the aforementioned 45 degree angle on the inside of the rim? I was trying to grind in a way to remove as little material as possible but still clear it.
Picture 4 shows one portion of the driverside rim. You can clearly see where I have been turning the wheel to determine exactly where the wheel is scraping. Keep in mind that I haven't just turned it for fun, but numerous times trying to isolate the exact location of interference.
Picture 5 shows a second portion of the wheel. In this section you can see that the wheel is also scraping closer to the front (the reverse of what the image shows). That is where the caliper is scraping on the front.
Picture 6 shows the interference just mentioned. The front face of the caliper. In fact, if you follow up my finger, the place it is worst is between my second knuckle and my third knuckle, right on the top corner.
Picture 7 shows the scraping area at the rear of the caliper. It looks nasty but if the problem had been resolved I would have ground it down very smooth with my dremel.
Picture 8 shows the passengerside setup. At this point is unmolested, until I find out what my solution will be.
Picture 9 shows the passengerside setup again. The rotors appear to have a very nice crosshatch pattern already on them. They should seat the pads nicely.
Picture 10 shows how the driverside wheel does not yet sit flush on the hub. I took this picture with my foot pushing on the bottom and my other hand pushing on the top.
Picture 11 shows what I originally wanted. A stock wheel with a massive brake behind.
Now, to answer your questions. I don't want to run larger wheels. I had a set of 18s and my car rode like a dump truck. I appreciate the increased handling from the Toyo Proxes4 tires and having just put the tires on about 10,000 miles ago I'm not itching to spend more money I don't really have in the first place. I will probably end up having to put on a set of 17s, but my 18s need to sell first.
Irregardless of the fitment issues, why should I have to put 17s on when the kit is advertised as being compatible with 16 inch wheels? Isn't that false advertisement? That's like buying a pair of shoes and then finding out that you need to buy your own glue to put the sole on.
Focus Fanatic
Man that really sucks.
I'm glad to hear though, I have on fleeting occasions contemplated this kit, and the 16s you have are my winter wheels, so it would be highly unfortunate to not have the brakes clear them properly!
I wish I could offer constructive help, but alas I can't...

not ot be a ass... but I would think if your gonna convert to SVT brakes which that kit is.. you would need 17's. common sense on my part. even though it says wheel size 16's and up it also says check hub clearence.. its just common sense not to trust it would fit a 16 in. rim. there has to be a reason the SVTF comes stock with 17's so they could run bigger brakes and retain looks as well...
just my 2 cents...
SVT: front bumper/grilles...headlights..door handles.. SVTF.wheels w/ Z rated rubber 2in. drop...smoked tails...EBC dimpled/slotted rotors w/ Hawk pads...20% tint...FR wires..FC UDP's...Steeda short ram ...OBX headers..Magnaflow stainless catback exaust...strut bar...blk ford badges, window guards
coming really soon: adding forced induction. havent decided which one yet but car has 112,000 miles on it so I'm trying to blow it up..lol
Focus Jr. Enthusiast
Not to be an ass, but you are incorrect. The SVTF can run a 16" wheel without issue. Keep in mind that the 17" is the best for racing, which is what the SVTF was designed for. Additionally, why would I put an oversized Focus system on my car when for less than $200 more I can upgrade to a kit with superior brake calipers? Even you should be able to attest to the inferior quality of Ford OEM brake calipers, as I can provide pictures of my calipers that failed to float like a quality caliper would even after only 34,000 miles.
For a second, let's consider my point of view. What if you were to call me three times asking about a new ladder I'm selling. I tell you I have tested the ladder and on every test it has reached a height of 20ft. Then you buy it because you only need a ladder to go to 19 feet, and find out that the ladder doesn't reach 20ft, it reaches 18. Would you be upset? Or would you say it's "common sense" that a ladder advertised as reaching 20ft only reaches 18?
My issue is not with 'hub' clearance. Don't mistake hub clearance with caliper clearance. I have the recommended clearances. I have plenty of 'hub' and 'rotor' clearance. My issue is with the caliper clearance, something that Eric at BAT assured me three times over that I would not have a problem with. Baer doesn't seem to have a problem with putting brake templates on their site, why doesn't BAT?
Try putting a set of 16s on your car. They'll fit, so why shouldn't BATs kit not fit? There isn't a reason, especially considering I am using the same rotors you are (just the European spec ones).
Focus Addict
1972vegaGt.. I understand your pain and hassle.. I wasnt trying to be a ass about that... true about your ladder example..funny btw..cute.. I got it..BAT should'nt say that 16's will fit with the kit you bought when obviously your having caliper clearence problems..
about the size of rim for racing the smaller the rim while racing the better.. less wheel to turn..thats why most racers go with a smaller size wheel and lighter when they race..better performance.. and I'm not neccessarily talking about the SVTF.. and your right SVTF can run a 16's with out problems.. buddies SVTF is sitting on them as we speak cause I have his rims...lol
SVT: front bumper/grilles...headlights..door handles.. SVTF.wheels w/ Z rated rubber 2in. drop...smoked tails...EBC dimpled/slotted rotors w/ Hawk pads...20% tint...FR wires..FC UDP's...Steeda short ram ...OBX headers..Magnaflow stainless catback exaust...strut bar...blk ford badges, window guards

and yes I did contradict myself too.. btw.. forgot buddy had 16's on his SVTF.... check install maybe you installed it wrong

An 84-year-old nun was sentenced Tuesday to nearly three years in prison for breaking into a Tennessee nuclear facility in July 2012.
Sister Megan Rice and two other anti-nuclear activists were convicted last May of breaking into a federal complex that stores enriched uranium.
"Please have no leniency on me. To remain in prison for the rest of my life would be the greatest honor you could give me," Rice told the federal judge at her sentencing hearing, according to USA Today.
U.S. District Judge Amul Thapar in Knoxville said he wanted the sentence to send a signal that others need to work for change within the bounds of the law.

Next week we'll break out the tuxedos and have the official 2013 Oskarz.biz Award Show. GO VOTE!
10 Comments
Watching "Amish Mafia" should be illegal in every state because the show is only Amish in name. Every actor would have been shunned by their respective Amish or Mennonite communities years ago. Trust me, I live in Lancaster, PA.
After listening to Cameron's discussion of politics, I had to write down my own thoughts (and yes, the podcast got a shout out).
Cameron, I really appreciated your "rant." The past few years I have definitely found myself in that middle ground. I'd never thought of those other issues as being "life" issues, but that really brought some clarity to what I'd been thinking and feeling!
I would like to point out the irony of "Cats That Look Like Ron Swanson" being included as a nominee for Best Tumblr. According to Ron Swanson on this past week's episode, "any dog under 50 pounds is a cat and cats are pointless."
Also I liked Cameron's comments about politics in this week's podcast. In the Beatitudes, Jesus calls us to be peacemakers not rabble-rousers.
So it wasn't until halfway through the podcast that I realized the Huckabee referred to Tyler and not Mike Huckabee.
And thank you for the rant. It echoed a lot of thoughts that I have had over the past couple of years. The political system has done a good job of structuring every debate around 1 or 2 divisive issues. The system is no longer about compromise but about not giving the other side a victory.

Mveleli Luzipho dies
By Ron Jackson
Former South African junior flyweight champion Mveleli Luzipho died at his home in Mdantsane, near East London on Wednesday after a long illness. He was 43. Luzipho who fought from 1981 to 1987 outpointed Tamsanqa Sogwe in his seventh professional fight on August 10, 1982 in Cape Town to win the South African junior flyweight title.
However, only four fights later and in his first defence, he lost the title to Baby Jake Matalala when he was stopped in the eleventh round in February 1983.
In a return with Matlala he regained the title and then made a successful defence against Matlala before losing it once again in May 1986 when he was stopped in seven rounds by Odwa Mdleleni.
After losing the title his career began to wind down as he lost three of his next five fights inside the distance before hanging up his gloves to finish with a record 19-6; 3.
After quitting the ring Mveleli assisted fighters at the Eyethu Boxing Club in Mdantsane for more 20 years.
He also helped in the corner of one South Africa's greatest fighters, former IBF junior featherweight champion Vuyani Bungu and travelled the world with him.
I had met Mveleli on many occasions and will always remember his quiet unassuming manner as he went about his work in the corner.

Espejo Roto (original 2006; edition 2002)
by Merce Rodoreda
Work details
A Broken Mirror by Mercè Rodoreda (2006)
No current Talk conversations about this book.
What can I say? Mercè Rodoreda is an author in ten thousand. It's a book about multiple generations of women, their family and others related, time, decay, and memory. It's about legacy, and time's unconcerned disintegration thereof. She explores each character's peculiar fixations, passions, and regrets. She chooses details to linger on that explain the whole. There's an overall sense of loss. I'll definitely have to read it again someday. I'd be remiss not to mention the translator, Josep Miquel Sobrer. There were a bunch of passages and ideas that seem like they'd be really hard to translate well, but it always came out beautifully.
"Of the vanity, the hatred, the shards of love, all that was left was dust and a sad spectacle of splendor and forgetfulness."

April 14, 2014
After being stuck inside for three days following a historic blizzard last winter,
Jenny Tanski '14 was getting cabin fever. So, Tanski and her sister decided they would
make a short walk from their Milford home to find something to eat, and they invited
their parents.
Since the sidewalks weren't clear, the four walked in a single file line along Route 1 as close as possible to the snow banks. But the trip turned tragic when a Black SUV came barreling at the group.
Thankfully, Tanski's younger sister was not hit, and Tanski avoided serious injury. But her parents were not as fortunate.
"I was so scared," Tanski told the nearly 400 people gathered on Saturday for the
University's 31st Annual Alumni Scholarship Ball, which raised more than $1 million
and set an event record. "This couldn't happen to my family. Not us. Not now. Not
The following morning, Tanski's father died from his injuries, and four days later her mom was pronounced dead.
Despite the tragedy, Tanski was determined to get back into the routine of school and work, but she didn't know if it would be possible after the loss of her parents' income. With the help of many friends, family and UNH – including the DeNardis Endowed Scholarship and the Emergency Scholarship Fund – she was able to continue her lifelong goal of graduating from college, which she will do – on time – next month.
Tanski, a criminal justice major who hopes to pursue a career working with troubled adolescents, thanked those in attendance for supporting her.
"You are investing in dreams," she said. "In my dreams. In the dreams of fellow students who never thought they could achieve so much and strive for even more."
Benhuri, the owner of The Benhuri Center for Laser and Implant Dentistry – billed
as "New York's most sought-after dental facility visited by celebrities, CEOs and
foreign dignitaries from around the world" – read from a poem he wrote titled "What
I Have Learned."
"I learned it is not what you have, but who you have in your life that counts," said Benhuri, a member of the UNH Board of Governors. "I learned that you can keep going long after you think you cannot.
"Thank you, UNH, again and again and again."
Gao, senior vice president and head of business development for the Industrial and Commercial Bank of China, the largest bank in the world as measured by total assets, quit her job in the early 1990s to move to New Haven and enroll in the MBA program.
"I loved being a student at UNH, and I have realized how much the school has done for me," she said. "My ideas and ideals were shaped at UNH, and the school has truly inspired me to reach for my full potential."
Quiello, vice president of corporate safety at United Airlines and a graduate of nearby Notre Dame High School, reflected on a seminal moment in his life when the owner of a New Haven aviation school invited him to take a flight. He has done his part to pay it forward by helping to create an internship at United for UNH criminal justice students. He also is a member of the University's Board of Governors.
"As a student, I was given the tools to compete with the best of the best," he said. "UNH was a springboard for me to be able to fly higher than I ever dreamed."
Pompea spent two decades advancing up the ladder at Primary Steel, a company he eventually purchased in 1993 and ran for 15 years. He is now the owner of the Springfield Falcons, the Massachusetts-based American Hockey League team. A former vice chair of the UNH Board of Governors and a current emeritus member, he deflected praise after accepting the President's Award, one of the University's most esteemed honors.
"I don't think I have done much," he said. 'I am just happy to be part of the vision of the school."
The following videos were shown at the Scholarship Ball in honor of the three Distinguished Alumni Award recipients.

I've nt tried the JBD unit, but I have run the DTUK single system back to back wit the CRD-T system, but very capable and reward you with impressive power gains.
I kept the CRD-T system, it felt alittle sharper, and alittle crisper .... A more remapped feel to the drive of the car.
I'd be be interested in comparing the CRD-T unit I have against the JBD system....as I've done 60,000 + miles in this car on the CRD-T system, and feel I know it quite well. A comparison would be interesting
If anyone has any questions please feel free to ask, if I can answer, I will....
Hey Tom,
Glad to see you found the "other" site!
On your dyno, did you get a bseline? Peak hp # mean little since every dyno spits out different peak hp numbers where some read higher and some read lower. I am interested in are gains from the baseline on the same dyno.
Guys - Tom is the guy that ordered the EGR by-pass for his d. Looking forward to seeing how that goes.

text: SAN MARCOS, Calif., Nov. 6, 2012 /PRNewswire/ -- Natural Alternatives International, Inc. ("NAI") (NASDAQ: NAII), a leading formulator, manufacturer and marketer of customized nutritional supplements, announced today that the U.S. Patent and Trademark Office has issued a Notice of Allowance of its patent application directed to sustained release formulations of beta-alanine. This Notice follows the September 14, 2012, issuance of NAI's corresponding sustained release patent in Canada and a similar Notice of Allowance in South Korea. This new intellectual property becomes part of NAI's growing portfolio covering its CarnoSyn ® beta-alanine and SR CarnoSyn ® product. Mark A. LeDoux, NAI's CEO and Chairman of the Board, said that "NAI is very excited by the addition of this new intellectual property related to a broad range of sustained release formulations for beta-alanine compositions. We believe this new patented technology will dramatically expand the use of beta-alanine to a much broader group of consumers. These new patent rights will not expire until 2028, and further demonstrates our commitment and significant investment in the CarnoSyn ® beta-alanine business." Dr. Roger Harris, a named inventor on NAI's new sustained release intellectual property, added, "The use of extended release formulations for beta-alanine is an advancement in supplement intake. The result is an increase in the beneficial amount of beta-alanine retained in the body while reducing loss through metabolic processes. Additionally, sustained release formulations minimize or reduce parasthesia, a common side effect that can be experienced by those taking beta-alanine as an individual amino acid." Using sustained release forms of beta-alanine will not only meet the needs of bodybuilders, but also expand into other areas of use by individuals. Since 2008, over 30 peer-reviewed studies have been published related to beta-alanine supplementation. Thirteen of these studies were directed to sustained release forms of beta-alanine, eight of which were published in 2012 alone.

Hey Sherbert, I've got a couple of questions on the sounder.
What settings do you use on the navman.
What speeds does it read bottom before it gets, "bubbly".
I've seen some sounder tracks with the sinker track easily seen on the screen I've not yet reached that skill level on mine. Does yours show that level of detail?
Any help appreciated.

Exports grow 1.4 percent in May
By John Liu, The China Post Tuesday, June 10, 2014, 12:00 am TWN
TAIPEI, Taiwan -- Exports in May grew 1.4 percent to US$26.67 billion, while imports dipped 2.3 percent to US$21.38 billion, resulting in a trade surplus of US$5.29 billion, according to a report released by the Ministry of Finance (MOF) yesterday.
May marked the fourth consecutive month of growth in exports, according to the report. However, the 1.4 percent was lower than the market expectation of 4.5 percent.
Among export products, electronic products surged 15.2 percent to US$8.56 billion, which was a new record. All sub-categories saw double-digit growth, such as the 16-percent growth in integrated circuits, 37.7-percent growth in solar batteries, 15.1-percent growth in storage media and 11.3-percent growth in diodes.
Mineral, ICT and Optical Products Underperforms
Exports of chemical products grew 10.3 percent to US$1.87 billion. However, exports of mineral products, information and communication technology (ICT) products and optical instruments saw substantial decline in May, dropping 22 percent, 21.2 percent and 15.9 percent, respectively.
As annual repair and maintenance halted plant operation, mineral product output and exports dropped, the MOF said.
Among ICT products, exports of mobile phones dropped 37.2 percent and mobile phone parts and components went down 15.1 percent as well. In addition to lower-than-expected sales, the drop also reflected the fact that some production facilities have moved overseas, and their output is not factored into the MOF's statistics, said MOF Statistics Department Director Yeh Maan-tzwu (葉滿足).
Import Performance
Imports went down 2.3 percent in May, which was the first time in fourth months.
Imports of capital equipment went down 8.5 percent to US$3.07 billion, with machinery declining by US$660 million, and airplanes growing by US$340 million.
Imports of agricultural and industrial raw materials declined 2 percent to US$15.92 billion, with mineral products dropping by US$740 million, and electronic parts and components growing by US$230 million.
Imports of consumer products grew 10.3 percent to US$2.23 billion, with food products growing by US$120 million while sedans grew by US$50 million, equivalent to a 23.6-percent and 19.9-percent increase, respectively. The growth reflected higher household incomes and an improved job market.
Exports to Major Markets
Except for ASEAN-6 countries, exports to all major markets around the globe grew in May. Exports to mainland China, Japan, the U.S. and Europe grew 6.4 percent, 2.6 percent, 1 percent and 5.8 percent, respectively. Exports to ASEAN-6 countries dropped 4.5 percent.
Exports to mainland China (including Hong Kong) totaled US$11.06 billion, which was a record high since August 2011. Exports of electronics products grew by US$910 million, a 24.1-percent increase.
Exports to the U.S. and the eurozone have grown for five consecutive months, indicating a recovery in Western markets, said Tony Phoo, a Taipei-based economist of Standard Chartered. The arrival of new handheld devices such as smartphones and tablets around the globe has aided domestic companies in reaping higher profits in May, Phoo said.

The 'Wizard of Oz' comes to Geyer stage
Dorothy and her friends will be taking the stage at the Geyer Performing Arts Center in Scottdale this weekend, with performances of the "Wizard of Oz" scheduled from Thursday through Sunday.
Karen Snyder and Toby Maykuth are co-directing the show.
Snyder said with this year being the theater's 25th anniversary, she thought they needed to do some "big-name musicals" that would feature lots of children.
"Brad Geyer (theater board president) had specifically mentioned that he would like to see the 'Wizard of Oz' produced in this special season," Snyder said.
The "Wizard of Oz" was previously performed at the theater, but not the Royal Shakespeare Company version, which is just like the movie.
"I always thought that AAFC should one day attempt to do that version," Snyder said.
Maykuth, who is one of Snyder's friends, offered to help her in any way he could.
"This show is a huge undertaking, so I asked him to be co-director," she said. "I really appreciate all he has done."
Snyder said the show is not intimidating. Everyone loves it. But it is intimidating because of all the set and technical demands.
"The show takes place in 11 different locations, which involves building and painting a lot of different sets," she said. "We are using three different backdrops, two of which were made, drawn and painted by several people from our production team and cast."
Also, to pull off the show, the production team had to come up with feasible ways to simulate a cyclone, "melt" a wicked witch, fly the wizard's balloon and several other things as well.
Costuming the show has been a challenge, too.
Snyder said the theater rented many of the costumes for the leads, but theater officials had to make all of the Emerald City costumes, the Jitterbug costumes and put together costumes for the Munchkins.
Maykuth said the show is intimidating because almost everyone has seen it, and they have expectations.
"A small community theater can only do so much when it comes to the special effects, and I made a lot of decisions that attempted to simplify things for our stage, but I am counting on the acting to create the feelings necessary for the enjoyment of the production," he said.
Snyder said the cast is coming along well.
"There is a mixture of young and older people, people for whom this is their first show and people who have done years of shows at the Geyer, and there are 27 adorable little Munchkins who will sing and dance their way into the hearts of everyone," she said.
Maykuth said the cast is the most redeeming aspect of this show.
"They are working so hard, and they have been willing to do anything asked of them, including costuming and set building," he said. "Some of the performances are, truly, some of the best I've seen in community theater in a long time."
Snyder said theater leaders have been planning this show for months.
"It is so exciting to see the characters come to life, the sets be completed and all the technical elements start to work," she said. "It's exciting just because it's the 'Wizard of Oz.'"
Maykuth is excited to see what happens on opening night.
"So much can happen during live theater," he said. "I love to watch how things finally come together."
The shows are scheduled for 7:30 p.m. Thursday, Friday and Saturday and 2:30 p.m. Sunday. Tickets are $12.
For more information or to learn more about the dinner and a show option, contact the theater at 724-887-0887.

Landon Whitsitt is a writer, speaker, theologian, and artist.
His first book, Open Source Church: Making Room for the Wisdom of All, explores the worlds of open source software and Wikipedia, making a compelling case that the work of the Church in the 21st century is best accomplished not by depending on experts but on the collective wisdom of the people God has gathered.
In his digital monograph titled Theology is Art, Landon argues that for theology to fulfill its true purpose and potential it must be understood as an art form. Synthesizing the contributions of the great philosopher of art, Susanne Langer, and the "father of modern theology", Friedrich Schleiermacher, Whitsitt asserts that theology is best understood as humanity's "creation of forms symbolic of human feeling, which result from an encounter with God."
Landon has been on the forefront of new media, producing two critically acclaimed podcasts, Landon Explains It All and The Phoenix Journal. Until Fall 2011, Landon was the co-host and producer of God Complex Radio with Carol Howard Merritt and Bruce Reyes-Chow.
A former congregational pastor, Landon currently serves the Presbyterian Church (USA) as the Executive of the Synod of Mid-America, and, in 2012, completed a two year term as the Vice-Moderator of the church's General Assembly. As a musician, he has led worship for many local, regional, and national conferences, and has recorded two albums of worship music with his band, eighth day collective.
Landon likes monkeys, Sporting Kansas City soccer, and modern architecture and design. He would have lunch with Seth Godin and Malcolm Gladwell if given the chance, and he is allergic to watermelon.

California Avenue SW/SW Admiral Way Paving Project: Background InformationProgram Overview
The City's Arterial Asphalt and Concrete Program resurfaces a number of streets each summer. The projects are prioritized and selected by SDOT's Pavement Engineering and Management Section based on pavement condition, volume and type of traffic, identified needs of residents and businesses, opportunities for coordination with other capital projects, and identified maintenance and liability concerns. The main objectives of this 2006 Arterial Asphalt and Concrete Program are to improve street conditions to enhance mobility and safety, and to improve curb ramps, providing a safer and more convenient pedestrian environment.
Project Description
This project will improve pavement conditions on the streets outlined below and will improve accessibility by installing new and upgrading existing curb ramps to meet current Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) requirements. In general, the paving will involve grinding the top 2 inches of the surface, repairing the sub-surface base where needed, and then re-paving with 2 inches of asphalt.
The streets that we will be repaving in your neighborhood this summer are as follows:
The project is scheduled to begin in early August 2006 and continue through Spring 2007. Currently, a detailed schedule is not available, however SDOT will distribute timely construction notices to affected residents/businesses throughout the project.
Options for Changes to Marked Crosswalks
This paving project goes through three marked crosswalks which do not meet SDOT's guidelines for placement of a marked crosswalk and changes must therefore be made. There are two mid-block marked crosswalks on California Avenue SW in the West Seattle Junction, one south of SW Alaska Street and one south of SW Oregon Street. SDOT has two options for improving these two marked crosswalks and is soliciting comments about which option to select:
1) install a pedestrian traffic signal at each marked crosswalkAdmiral Way SW is also being repaved and a new traffic signal will be installed at SW Olga Street (the Belvedere Viewpoint). Other seldom used marked crosswalks further south at SW Hanford and SW City View Streets will be removed.
More details about crosswalk changes can be found and comments can be submitted online at www.seattle.gov/transportation/crosswalkprojects.htm.
Contact Us
Similar to most construction projects, this work will generate dust, noise, and create some inconveniences for you and your neighbors. There will be parking restrictions and traffic lane closures. However, at least one lane of traffic will be open in each direction when construction work is underway. We would like to take this opportunity to apologize in advance and thank you for your patience and cooperation during this project. If you would like more information regarding this project or our intended work, please contact either of the following:
George Frost
Public Outreach Coordinator
Jessica Murphy, P.E.

Lenovo: "The PC Will Not Die"
Jason Mick
June 7, 2013 7:32 PM
Recipient E-mail
Sender E-mail
Company is eyeing expansions into the server and storage markets, plus smartphone expansion, but remains PC loyal
Beijing, China-based Lenovo Group, Ltd. (
) is intent on continuing its meteoric rise and ambitious plans to displace traditional personal computer OEMs like Hewlett-Packard Comp. (
) atop the list in international computer shipments. Currently in
second place in PC sales
, Lenovo opened a
$1B USD line
in North Carolina. And already
#3 in Chinese smartphone sales
, Lenovo is
eyeing a U.S. smartphone push
But its plans don't stop there.
I. IBM Server Division is on Lenovo's Radar
CEO Yang Yuanqing
spoke to reporters
in the southwestern city of Chengdu, China at the
Fortune Global Forum
, commenting, "Servers and storage is the business we want to expand and develop. If there is an acquisition opportunity, we will take it."
Having already purchased International Business Machines, Inc.'s (
) personal computer business
back in 2005
, Lenovo is rumored to be considering jumping straight to the top of the server market, exploring a purchase of the veteran U.S. firm's server business.

vying with HP's for the top spot in global sales
. When it comes to a sale to Lenovo, though, price has reportedly been a stumbling block in the pair's discussions.

Servers are a lucrative and coveted business. Server sales have helped U.S. manufacturers like HP and Dell, Inc. (
). Chipmaker Advanced Micro Devices, Inc. (
) recently
spent $334M USD
to acquire
server-maker SeaMicro
. So far that deal has been
working out well for AMD
, who like its PC OEM counterparts is using its server unit to offset losses from other divisions.
II. Tough Challenges Ahead to Keep up With Exploding Smartphone Growth
He also discussed the smartphone push, explaining that his company's plan is to first expand into other emerging markets (like Brazil or Mexico) then move on to the most profitable top markets, like the U.S. He comments, "We will be in developed markets in a year. The gross margin for smartphones is better than PCs -- when you have scale, you will make money."
Lenovo will have to vie with domestic rival
Huawei Technologies
Comp. (
), who has similar ambitions. Huawei is still outselling Lenovo in the smartphone market
moving 9.9 million smartphones
in the Q1 2013, versus 7.9 million for Lenovo. But Lenovo is growing faster -- its sales more than double from a mere 2.5 million units in Q1 2012, while Huawei's sales "merely" doubled from 5.1 million in Q1 2012 [
The gadgetmaker also faces a tough challenge from market giants Apple, Inc. (
) and Samsung Electronics Comp., Ltd. (
) who spent years carefully generating strong brand images in the U.S. and Europe.
Lenovo is eyeing a global smartphone push. [Image Source: Jason Mick/DailyTech]
Lenovo also bucked the general slump in the PC market, essentially holding steady at 11.7 million units. Combined with the strong smartphone growth, Lenovo managed to
increase its profit 90 percent
on a year-to-year basis.
Mr. Yang says the key reason why his company is hanging on while other PC manufactuers drop off is his company's willingness to offer optimized hybrid form-factors like the
Lenovo Yoga tablets-cum-laptops
. He comments, "The PC will not die. [But] the future PC is not the past PC."
"Nowadays you can buy a CPU cheaper than the CPU fan." -- Unnamed AMD executive

text: The Batt-O-Meter is the first and only product that can measure the battery life on your active guitars and basses, as well as your pedals and any other battery powered device that has a 1/4″ output jack. You simply set the Batt-O-Meter for the type of battery, plug it in and take a reading. It gives you great peace of mind before gigs and makes battery checking as easy as plugging in your cable. I was excited when I discovered the Batt-O-Meter because I had this idea myself about 10 years ago. I worked with 2 electronic designers over a 12 month period, but we could not solve the riddle of how to compensate for differences in circuit "load" that the meter would read at the jack. The Batt-O-Meter has a microproccessor which analyzes the load of the circuit to produce the correct battery reading. I have tested the accuracy of the Batt-O-Meter and find it to be excellent. I highly recommend this great product. Requires a 9V battery, not included. Please click below for a video demonstration.
