The F-150 might be the most important vehicle made by Ford. It continues to be one of their top-selling vehicles, encouraging Ford to put their best foot forward with the 2016 model. The F-150 competes with the Ram, the Chevrolet Silverado and the GMC Sierra 1500, among others, in the full-sized truck category. Ford is clearly pushing its new technology and new ideas with the F-150, offering plenty of options not available anywhere else in this class, such as a 360-degree camera and integrated loading ramps stowed in the pickup bed. A smaller, more fuel efficient EcoBoost engine is also available, which should further improve fuel economy while providing the same kind of horsepower that would normally be delivered by mid-grade V8 engines. At the same time, the F-150 continues to excel at traditional truck tasks, with a best in class towing capacity of 12,200 pounds when properly equipped.
Compare the 2016 Ford F-150 against similar models
The Ford F-150 was completely redesigned for 2015, so for 2016 it receives only minor updates. Among the changes, a Pro Trailer Backup Assist greatly aids drivers of all skill levels in maneuvering a trailer while in reverse. Users simply turn a knob left or right to indicate desired direction and the F-150 adjusts its steering and speed to comply. Ford's latest SYNC 3 infotainment system replaces MyFord Touch as a more intuitive option for users. F-150s equipped with the 5.0L V8 offer a new option for running on propane or compressed natural gas, while new special edition packages are available on XLT and Lariat trims. Finally, a new Limited trim tops the range and packages goodies like 22-inch wheels and several convenience options.
A vehicle's warranty can significant impact your maintenance costs after you drive off the dealer's lot, and it's important to understand the different parts. Typically, a new car warranty includes a Basic warranty, which covers everything except the wear items such as brakes and tires; and a Drivetrain warranty, that covers all the parts that make the car move, such as the engine and transmission
The NHTSA (National Highway Traffic Safety Administration) provides consumers with vehicle safety information based on independent testing, primarily front and side crash rating results, and more recently rollover ratings, to aid consumers in their vehicle purchase decisions.

Ford went radically lean when it redesigned the Ford F-150 for 2015, giving its ever-popular full-size pickup an aluminum-intensive body. Visual appearance didn't change much, considering the dramatic re-skinning. Though the big pickup remains upright in profile, the F-150 lost 500 pounds or more.
For 2016, Ford F-150 gets a new SYNC 3 infotainment to replace the much-criticized MyFordTouch. Formerly a separate model, the off-road-focused FX4 is now an option package. Otherwise, little has changed for 2016.
The F-150 has been the top-selling vehicle in the U.S. for ages, up against its perennial rivals: Chevrolet Silverado, GMC Sierra, Ram 1500, plus Toyota Tundra and Nissan Titan.
Nothing appears to have been diminished by going light, and Ford's 2.7-liter EcoBoost V6 is especially impressive. However, some voice concern about the cost of repairing the aluminum body.
In the aluminum generation, Ford is focusing on turbocharged EcoBoost engines. One V8 remains, plus three V6 engines (two of them twin-turbo). Making 283 horsepower, the basic 3.5-liter V6 permits towing up to 7,600 pounds. The optional 2.7-liter turbo V6 produces 325 horsepower and 375 pound-feet of torque, for an 8,500-pound towing capacity.
Stepping up a big notch, a 365-horsepower, 3.5-liter EcoBoost twin-turbo V6, eking out 420 pound-feet, raises the peak towing figure to 12,200 pounds. Ford's familiar 5.0-liter V8 delivers 385 horsepower and 387 pound-feet of torque.
All engines mate with a 6-speed automatic transmission. F-150 pickups come with either rear-drive or four-wheel drive.
Nearly all F-150 buyers opt for a SuperCab or a SuperCrew, with four full-size front-hinged doors. Regular-cab models remain, but are mainly aimed at fleet duty.
Plenty of safety technology is available, including a second-row inflatable seatbelt and Curve Control for braking assistance. An F-150 can be equipped with blind-spot monitoring and adaptive cruise control. A lane-keeping system nudges the truck back into its lane when sensors detect crossing of the double-yellow line. New optional Pro Trailer Backup Assist simplifies backing into a driveway or boat launch. That system performs the actual steering.
Ford's Super Crew earned a five-star overall crash-test rating from the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA). An optional camera set provides a 360-degree view around the truck, helpful for parking or easing into a garage.
The 2016 Ford F-150 lineup has been scaled down to XL, XLT, Lariat, King Ranch, and Platinum.
F-150 XL is available with any cargo bed or cab, and the base V6 is available for SuperCrew. Standard equipment includes 17-inch wheels, manual windows and locks, AM/FM stereo, vinyl floor, manual air conditioning, and tilt/telescopic steering wheel. F-150 XLT adds CD player, cruise control, power windows and locks, cloth front seats, and SYNC.
F-150 Lariat comes with turbocharged 2.7-liter V6 or 5.0-liter V8 engine. Standard are leather-trimmed and heated front seats, satellite radio, rearview camera, pushbutton start, power-adjustable pedals.
F-150 King Ranch is Crew Cab only, with a shorter bed and V8, or with 3.5-liter twin-turbo V6 optional. Features posh leather, heated/cooled front seats, inflatable rear seatbelts, Sony audio, navigation, rear parking sensors, and remote tailgate release.
Platinum edition has LED headlights, blind-spot monitors, power running boards, remote start, remote tailgate release, rear parking sensors, and 20-inch wheels.
When the F-150 was redesigned for 2015, Ford downplayed the dramatic aluminum body by retaining an angular look and deleting the prior F-150's curves. The body and cargo bed are made of aluminum panels glued and riveted together. All that aluminum sits atop a ladder frame, made mostly of high-strength steel.
Led by its tall grille and faired-back headlights, the F-150 continues to convey a definitively tough-truck character. Rectangular headlight inserts recall early F-Series pickups. A beveled hood helps send air across the roof.
SuperCab and SuperCrew body styles come with a five-foot-six, six-foot-six, or eight-foot cargo bed. Helpful features are available, led by loading ramps that lock into bedsides, and a BoxLink system to divide and anchor cargo, and a slide-out tailgate.
Roomy up front, the F-150 benefits from two extra inches of width compared to previous models. Regular-cab pickups provide scant space behind the front seats. SuperCabs are basically for younger folks; but rear seats flip up against the back wall, yielding helpful cargo storage space on the flat floor. Legroom is ample and the recline is satisfying in the back seat of a SuperCrew, but seat cushions are a bit low.
In most versions, a wide, deep console sits between the front seats. It's big enough to hold a laptop. More hard buttons than in past F-Series pickups operate the F-150's infotainment functions. Controls seem intended for drivers with big hands, which makes sense for a practical pickup. Platinum models can now have genuine wood trim.
Ride quality and handling prowess haven't changed substantially with the new aluminum body, but the reduced weight clearly helps isolation from the road surface.
F-150 occupants can expect excellent ride comfort and a substantial feel. A 2016 F-150 Platinum model we drove smoothed out bumpy neighborhood roads, delivering a ride that Super Duty owners can only dream about. Electric power steering is quick and light, handily complementing this truck's admirable road manners.
A V6 F-150 is quiet while cruising. One oddity: simulated V8 noise is sent into the cab, to satisfy owners who simply can't bear to be without the sound of eight cylinders.
Despite its traditional separate body, an F-150 exhibits excellent composure. In fact, even though an F-150 looks tough, it's among the best-handling big pickups. Ride control suggests a capable sedan, at least when rolling at moderate speeds. Pushed harder, not quite so much.
The 2.7-liter V6 engine works well with Ford's 6-speed automatic. Acceleration is energetic and smooth, the turbocharger heard faintly under acceleration. Ford's Stop/Start setup is among the best, practically seamless when it's time for the engine to restart. EPA-estimated fuel economy is a comparatively thrifty 19/26 mpg City/Highway (22 mpg Combined) with that engine and two-wheel drive.
Quite a difference from the V8 version, EPA-estimated at only 15/21 mpg.
Five trims, three body styles, three bed lengths, four engines. Plus a host of available options give the Ford F-150 a lot to choose from. Prudent purchasing suggests considering one of the lesser trim levels, such as an XLT or Lariat, since a King Ranch and Platinum can easily top $60,000. In our view, the 2.7-liter twin-turbo is worth the additional cost.

As you know, pricing cars is particularly complicated. One of our duties at CarQuotes.com is to help our customers comprehend this process better.
CarQuotes.com Estimated Target Price is for research purposes only. It reflects a typical, negotiated price (before taxes and other customary fees and charges, such as dealer documentation fees, tire and battery disposal fees, license and registration, and where applicable, finance charges) generally found for the vehicle that you selected. The Estimated Target Price is NOT a price quote from CarQuotes.com or any other dealer. If you request a price quote from a dealer via CarQuotes.com displaying an estimated target price, your price may differ.
Invoice is commonly known as the published amount that the dealer paid the manufacturer for the vehicle. This may or may not represent a close relation to the dealer's actual cost, but can be beneficial as a benchmark. This figure is available on many other web sites however CarQuotes.com adds an estimate of local and regional fees from manufacturer to the dealers to this price, which makes it very close to the actual invoice amount for cars at your local dealer.
MSRP is the Manufacturer's Suggested Retail Price. This is a proposed price only. For most vehicles, the CarQuotes.com price is below this amount. Some high demand cars may be priced over this amount.
The CarQuotes.com Target Price is to be used as a general guide that reflects a typical, market price (before taxes and other customary fees and charges) generally found for the vehicle that you selected. This price is based on our research and estimates of supply and demand in the marketplace. There are many factors that go into the final price of a particular vehicle including local supply and demand. Your final price may differ.
The 'base' price of the vehicle
All options that you select
Base Destination Charges — this is a charge that is added to the base price for every vehicle
Any related Estimated Manufacture to Consumer Cash Rebates. Note: rebates are subject to change at any time. Please make sure to confirm any consumer Cash rebates with your dealer representative at the time of purchase.
Local taxes, license fees and other local fees, such as dealer documentation fees, tire and battery disposal fees, and where applicable, finance charges — these fees are also excluded from Dealer Invoice and MSRP and would be excluded from most advertisements you might see.
Random 'special qualification' rebates — i.e., for new college grads only; for customers trading in a specific type of car. Ask your dealer Representative for more information on 'special qualification' rebates.
The Estimated CarQuotes Dealer Price is an estimate of the pricing presented to CarQuotes members from CarQuotes Authorized Dealers in your area, and is calculated by subtracting an estimated savings value from the Manufacturer's Suggested Retail Price ("MSRP") as well as a value that relates to invoice for the "ideal vehicle" you configured. Dealer documentation, administrative or similar processing fees are not included in the price estimate. Any vehicle configured on the CarQuotes website is an "ideal vehicle" and may not exist at a CarQuotes Authorized Dealer or any other partner dealer. Each Dealer attempts to match a member's vehicle preferences with the best possible selection from current, in-stock inventory.
The Estimated Savings represents the estimated amount of savings off of MSRP available to you from CarQuotes Dealers for a vehicle consistent with your configured preferences plus any customer incentives currently available. This is also true when it comes to CarQuotes estimated target prices. Your actual savings will depend on several factors including market conditions, the style of vehicle you select, installed options, dealer coverage, and applicable manufacturer incentives. Each dealer sets its own pricing.
In most cases, you must choose between these programs OR a customer rebate or a special manufacturer-to-dealer incentive that may or may not already be included in your CarQuotes.com Target Price. So, your final price may go up if you take advantage of special manufacturer financing. Credit Union members should contact their Credit Union loan department to determine what type of loan and financing options are right for you.
Please note that CarQuotes.com strives to include identified manufacturer incentives within the CarQuotes.com Target Price. CarQuotes.com does not administer these programs, which are subject to and often change without notice. Eligibility for these programs is subject to verification by a licensed auto dealer.
Ask your dealer representative for complete manufacturer program details for your area, and how participation in these programs will affect your price.
The base vehicle is the vehicle before any optional equipment or destination fees have been added. All of the standard features are included in the base vehicle.
This is the total charge for all optional equipment included in the configuration of your virtual vehicle. The Options charge varies depending on whether it is calculated based on the Factory Invoice or MSRP. Options are not included in the base vehicle price and are not considered standard features.
A Regional Fee is the fee a manufacturer charges a dealer to advertise and promote the vehicle in the dealer's market. CarQuotes also includes estimated manufacturer preparation charges (manufacturer charges to the dealer to cover any work done on the car prior to delivering it to the dealership) and fuel charges (the charge for the fuel in the tank when the buyer purchases the vehicle) in this total. CarQuotes attempts to include regional ad fees in its Factory Invoice calculations; other sites at times do not.
These are the amounts that manufacturers charge to deliver a vehicle from the factory to the dealership.
Customer incentives are also commonly known as customer cash or bonus incentives. These incentives are offered by manufacturers as a way of enticing buyers into purchasing a vehicle.
Dealer Invoice price may or may not bear close relation to a dealer's actual cost for the vehicle. In some cases, a cost for a vehicle may be significantly less than the invoice price originally paid for the vehicle. Any difference between invoice price and the dealer's final cost may be caused by many factors including factory refunds, rebates, allowances, or incentives which the manufacturer or distributor may provide to the dealer.

in a konsole terminal try
which should list the vmware modules you have available. If nothing is listed the modules may not have been built during the installation. You may also want to try it without the pipe to grep and see if you have any modules for vmware that way also. If they are present, you will want toCode:root@bt:~# modprobe -l | grep vm
use modprobe to add them in. To check if you already have these modules loaded you can use
again you can omit the grep if you like. vmnet is really the one in question. Also if you run ifconfig -a you should see some vmnet adapters. If I recall correctly you may need to do something likeCode:root@bt:~# lsmod | grep vm
FYI I've never installed vmware in bt4. I have installed it in gentoo and ubuntu 10.04. Gentoo is where I had similar trouble to what you describeCode:root@bt:~# /etc/init.d/vmware start

Michael Rovner
A former dancer turned artist, Michal Rovner is one of the most ingenious talents working with video and creative digital processes today. With more than 50 solo shows over the past 25 years—including a midcareer retrospective at the Whitney Museum of American Art in 2002, a dynamic transformation of the Israeli Pavilion for the 2003 Venice Biennale, and an historical intervention at the Louvre last year—Rovner returns for her fifth solo outing in 15 years at Pace. Since first presenting her photographic works at Pace/MacGill Gallery in 1997, the Israeli-born Rovner, who splits her time between a studio in New York and a farm in her homeland, has exponentially expanded the fields of video, sculpture and installation art.
"Topography" offers a fresh crop of poetic pieces, ranging from stripped-down LCD screens that look like moving works on paper to enchanting video projections on black limestone. The primary muse is the wavering cypress tree, which most often gets mixed with processions of tiny people in barren backgrounds. Edom is a split-screen LCD video edition with two cypresses butted against the centerline and an exodus of pilgrims passing through receding mountains and reddened skies. Tavlit (Relief) projects dozens of cypress trees that turn from black on white to white on black slabs, while Echo displays positive and negative trees on two parallel stacks of stones. Combining the pulsating cypresses—symbolic of longevity—with a peaceful flow of humanity, Rovner choreographs new realities on tablets that are as old as time.—Paul Laster

John Bradley, Director
Music of Renaissance Poland
Bartłomiej Pękiel - Missa Pulcherrima ad instar Praenestini
Motets by Liban, Leopolita, Zieleński & others
Time: 8 pm
Pre-Concert Lecture 7 pm, Dr. Szymon Paczkowski
Tickets: $25 – General Admission
$15 – Students, Seniors & Early Music America (EMA) Members
As part of the 2013 New York Early Music celebration, Polyhymnia presents a concert of music from the epicenter of the sacred arts in Renaissance Poland, Krakow's Wawel Cathedral. Influenced by Flemish and Italian models, music composed by Bartłomiej Pękiel and his contemporaries dominated both secular and religious life in the center of arts and culture in Renaissance Poland – the city of Krakow. Both the royal court and the ecclesiastical community of the Cathedral commissioned works from these composers for their pastimes and sumptuous liturgies. The center piece of the concert is the Missa Pulcherrima ad instar Praenestini, the manuscript for which is in the Wawel Cathedral Library. This piece was composed in homage to the Palestrinian style, and is eloquently based on Polish carol tunes. The result is a lovely hybrid of the Italianate style and a deep sense of Polish popular culture. The concert will be preceded by a lecture given by Dr. Szymon Paczkowski, a leading Polish musicologist specializing in the music of the Renaissance and Baroque who is appearing under a cultural exchange in cooperation with the Polish Cultural Institute of New York.
About the Ensemble:
Polyhymnia creates vibrant, historically informed performances of music from the courts and cathedrals of the Renaissance world. Working with museums and libraries, liturgical historians and educational institutions, Polyhymnia preserves and revives masterworks of the choral literature composed in Europe and the Americas between the years 1450 and 1650. Since 2000, Artistic Director John Bradley has been preparing original editions of music for the ensemble in repertoire including numerous modern premiers of works which have remained unperformed since the 16th century.

Exclamation Installed Backtrack 3 and Booting On my Acer Laptop, Aircrack-ng crashes?
[Log in to get rid of this advertisement]
Heyy All Newbies, and Member's
I'd appreciate it if my problem is solved because i've been trying to solve it for weeks now,lol.
So i have a Acer laptop, and have succesfully downloaded backtrack (linux distrubution) and all is booting and functioning to a reasonable extent. However the only problem i am facing is when i open the shell konsole, and type "aircrack-ng", my laptop just freezes for 5 seconds, and i get a blank screen, and then backtrack 3 loads up again from the start, bringing me back to square one.
any suggestions or advice
Pleasee help me.
Do any of the other parts of the aircrack studio work? such as
Yes Niros everything works proerply, i use the following:
airmon, aireplay,aerodump.. and they all work, it just seems to be aircrack that let's me down, it's the last step of me being able to crack my own home network, and everytime i access aircrack-ng or anything related to aircrack-ng itself. the screen get's all fuzzy, and KDE is reloaded.
Anyone Please, Help?
Sorry moderator for just bloating my own forum, incase ur thinking what on earth am i doing lol, urmm, i think i may have found the solution, lsat night i went onto backtrack > system > system information> and realised that i onli had 3-4 mb of ram free, once everything was loaded, and therefore when i run the aircrack-ng, since it uses the CPU much more than any other command, does that mean it crashes linux, because there is less ram to carry out the request.
Sorri if that seemed a little complicated, just thought i'd figured the problem, correct me if im wrong plz?
First of all Linux works with RAM in a whole different fashion than Windows, it will assign memory to all programs needing it striving to allocate all RAM that is available on the machine. Even a RAM usage of 100 % does not necessarily mean that your computer is about to freeze up as memory will be re-allocated when needed. However, this being said you might still want to check if there is a program actively hogging all of your RAM. Also, even though aircrack-ng is a very CPU intensive program, seeing as the whole process is based on mathematical calculations, this does not automatically translate into it demanding a huge amount of RAM as well.
Did you by the way already try to reinstall the newest version of aircrack-ng, as well as an older version in case the problem persists, as I suggested in my PM?
-Monkeys are like nature's humans.
kool, i already PM you Tron, but i'll explain what stage i am at now, incase someone else may no..
As tron said, i may need to update or re install aircrack onto my usb, im running from usb, so will it recognise the changed made!, and how would i go about installin or updating aircrack?
lol, Everything's turning against me,lmao
First of all the aircrack-ng command takes down my whole laptop by rebooting linux, i do not know why, as soon as i hit enter on the command, after 2 seconds of freezing! KDE is reloaded. And another thing i booted up backtrack now from my usb, and opened firefox to check if it would connect to the internet and it did, seemed to have loaded fine. i then closed the browser, and tryed to open it again, guess what happens?
Ryt, the laptop freezes and restarts backtrack. i cant even re install aircrack because when it comes to the command "make install" my laptop reboots then aswell. it's either my usb is c*** and cant handle it, or ma pc.lol it's a puzzler, i do not no wot's going on..
Well since you seem to experience this problem using quite a few programs I would put my money on that it is not related specifically to aircrack-ng in any way, and therefore an update most likely will do you no good.
First of all did you verify the MD5 checksum of your downloaded files before you installed them onto your USB? It is possible that your copy became corrupt during the downloading process and that this is the real origin of all your problems. Another possible reason is that your CPU overheats, and that your BIOS turns of your computer to prevent any damage to the hardware. However, I believe that your computer would simply power off instead of restart if this was the case. Still you might want to check out the following link for enabling ACPI support on your acer laptop:
As I stated in my PM to you, the changes will only be recognized at your next reboot in case you run a USB installation with persistent changes. Use the search function for more information on this set-up as there are plenty of good guides to be found on the forum already.As tron said, i may need to update or re install aircrack onto my usb, im running from usb, so will it recognise the changed made!, and how would i go about installin or updating aircrack?
-Monkeys are like nature's humans.
lol yup i did verify the MD5 Checksum, and there is nothing wrong with the files, i just redownloaded the usb backtrack 3 and had a check, and there is no joy, and nope lol the laptop doesn't turn of, it doesn't even restart all the way back to the bootmoney, it restarts to the backtrack 3 splash screen...
i'll just cary on researching into it..
Lol, ino that this wasn't the very intelligent way to solve this problem, but hay if u solve a problem it cnt be so stupid lol
what i decided to do was, i thought to myself backtrack 3 just came out, so i thought my laptop hardware may not support some of the features, since it is old. I then decided to download and run backtrack 2!, aircrack and everything works now, no freezing!, load's up in milliseconds, and still running of my usb
special thanks to Tron, with his support
basicalli i removed usb backtrack 3 and run USB backtrack 4. I was having problems with the aircrack suite.
Backtrack 3 aircrack suite = 1.0 rc1
backtrack 2 aircrack suite = 0.7
in the aircrack 1.0 suite i can go into monitor mode, capture packets with airodump, and deauth wireless client (own network) with aireplay. But my comptuer crashes on the whole aircrack-ng command
However in aircracksuite 0.7 there is a different story, i am able to put my card in monitor mode, capture packets with airdump, but when i use aireplay it doesnt deauth the client at all, whereas this is beautifully and instantly done in the latest aircrack version. The aircrack-ng command in the old aircrack suite works perfectly.
This means that i have to keep installing between the 2 to be able to do the four steps in cracking my wpa network. Ino this does the job, but i have to put in way more effort..
does anyone have ani solution at all. please help, i'll be patient and wait for a reply.. thanks in advance

The project launched in March, 2004. In the US, as of August 5, 2004, 223 libraries in 39 states are participating, with new libraries and often entire library systems joining daily. Libraries are the core, as they have historically upheld the right to open and free access to information and ideas. September Project events are distributed nationally and internationally and are free and open to the people. A map of participating hosts can be viewed here: http://www.com.washington.edu/september/map.asp
The September Project is beyond borders. Spain's El Proyecto Septiembre(http://septiembre.ciberpunk.org) has coordinated events in six cities.

Needs Some Work
- Familiarity: I've put it through the wringer
I have been really disappointed with Outdoor Research the last couple of years. I bought these gaiters with some high expectations. They weren't very durable. OR hasn't made a good pair of gaiters since 2010.
Not the best I've tried
- Familiarity: I've used it several times
I need to echo Ito's review below. I got these for trail running but have found that there are better gaiters out there (inov8 and salomon) for that purpose.
As Ito notes, these things are way snug. I have thin lower calves and still get a substantial line even if I leave them totally loose. They also have a funny shape that seems to leave a bit of a gap on the inside/medial surface.
They are a bit of a PIA to put on, although putting the included velcro tab on the heel of the shoe works.
If they get super wet, they don't dry that fast.
Overall, I use these infrequently and I think, for running, there are better choices out there.
Go Either Heavier Or Lighter
- Familiarity: I've used it several times
I'm a big fan of Outdoor Research, a lot of their gear works well and is well thought out.
For me these gaiters did't work so well and I think there are better alternatives out there, here are my impressions.
I wear 46 (US 11.5) and got these in a large. I could put these on no problem (removing shoes first of course). The top of the ankle 'sock' has a small elastic drawstring. I have quite thin ankles with very low bodyfat and the elastic is already tight. When I would wear these with mid high shoes or boots, the top part would go higher on my calf muscle and be too tight on its loosest setting. For an elastic cord with a drawlock on it the widest setting is simply too tight, especially for people with average or higher body fat levels.
These gaiters are made from very solid materials, with nice reflective accents that I always like to see on gear.
My problem with this soft shell material is that I think it's a middle of the road solution that works ok for a lot of conditions, but not great for any of them. It holds out debris of course, but if you need something waterproof this isn't it, the gaiter is too short for that, the fabric is not waterproof and dries slow. If you need waterproof/snow protection go with a GTX or eVent gaiter that comes up to your knees.
If on the other hand you just need small, light, breathable gaiters than there are others that do that better. Dirty Girl Gaiters for example are lighter, dry quicker and breath better than these - and they are cheaper too.
So, I would think through what conditions you want your gaiters for and make a choice: Either go with heavier, longer but fully waterproof gaiters, or go with even lighter, more breathable and faster drying gaiters.
Outdoor Research Ultra Trail Gaiters
Shingo goes over the features of the new OR Ultra Trail Gaiters.
I wore these just one day for a 25 mile hike through pumice,sand and gravel in low top shoes. I didnt even have to use the strings to tie them down they are designed that well. They hook onto your front laces of your shoes and stay put! Last year I didnt have gators and got HUGE blisters from all the fine dust that got into my shoes. I am all about weight and these are the lightest ones that I could find that are very easy to use. There are the montbell ones but they did not come in size 15 for me. I like the design of these way better too. Also one last thing. When you hike you can not feel them and dont even notice them on.
I am really interested in these gaiters,...
I am really interested in these gaiters, but do they come in a XL? I am not sure L would be big enough.

Bardzo mały pokój razem z kuchnią i sypialnia. Wszytko w malutkim pokoiku. Gorąco! Widok na obdrapane ściany budynku. Ale czysto i pościel ok. Łóżko słabe.
Salvatore was very nice and gave us some tips for Nice. He explained everything detailed and was trustworthy. The location and the apartment itself were ok but there was a huge problem with it: when you opened the window it smelled really bad, as if we were living in a cloaca ... We mentioned the problem to Salvatore and he said sorry and hopefully the bad smell vanished until the morning. It was the first night and we thought ok, we wait until the next morning. Because we couldn't open the window the apartment was very stuffy and we had only an electric fan which wasn't a big help. The next morning it was ok so we thought it was good now but soon the bad smell blew up again and it was useless to wait till the smell vanishes. In the four days we opened the window for about 5 minutes. In the corridor outside there was better air than inside the apartment. Unfortunately the apartment was not amazing but sunny all right.
Nice city was amazing and we had a lot of fun but the situation in the apartment ruined our holiday a little. We went unwillingly to the apartment and only to sleep. We left as early as possible and came back as late as possible. I hope the smell-problem is solved until the next guest arrives at the apartment otherwise they would have the same bad expirience like us.
Such a disappointment.
At the time we arrived to Nice, we had to meet Salvatore at the agency he works for. Salvatore was really kind with us and explained very well how to get to the apartment and some other things, such as supermarkets around the area, etc.
When we firstly got the apartment it looked pretty good, the apartment was setted up and clean.
A nasty smell came from the outside, we read about this smell in the street in other comments but did not really give it importance.
The smell was like a mix between cats pee and poo, which made us unable to open the window for the entire stay. To make it worse, the smell sometimes came from the bathroom. In addition, the apartment was very warm and humid. At least Salvatore had the detail of leaving a fan in the apartment.
Ein einfaches, kleines und gut gepflegtes Appartement. Ideal, um von hieraus in 2 Minuten mitten im Stadtzentrum zu sein.
El apartamento esta decorado con mucho gusto, tiene de todo y esta muy centrico. Hemos estado muy bien. Es un anfitrion que lo que enseña es lo que es. Gracias Salvatore
Appartamento molto carino e funzionale, vicinissimo alla stazione dei treni. pulito e cosa importantissima sia salvatore che il cugino (per eventuale ceck in fuori orario) parlano Italiano... consigliatissimo ..alla Prossima!
very central and clean. Everything available in the apartment. Enjoyed a lot my stay.
Die Schlüsselübergabe verlief reibungslos und unkompliziert.
Die Wohnung liegt sehr zentral, direkt an der großen Einkaufsstraße und nur eine viertel Stunde zum wunderschönen Strand entfernt.
Lediglich die Parksituation in Nizza und an der Wohnung ist schwierig. Es lohnt sich etwas außerhalb einen Parkplatz zu suchen und die Stadt zu Fuß oder mit öffentliche Verkehrsmittel zu erkunden.
Salvatore muy atento y amable, nos lo explicó todo super bien. El apartamento limpio y con todo lo necesario.
El problema fue que el WIFI no funcionaba muy bien y que no podíamos abrir la ventana porque subía un OLOR HORRIBLE de la calle y estábamos a 30 grados solo con un ventilador (ni aire acondicionado) con la ventana cerrada porqué era imposible respirar con ese olor.
Si pusieran aire acondicionado, el problema se solucionaría!
Premetto fin da subito che il mio soggiorno è stato a dir poco terrificante: il monolocale, pur essendo vicino al viale principale, si affaccia su una strada rumorosa e frequentata da persone che di notte non fanno altro che baccagliare, impedendo così la normale quiete notturna .
Il letto matrimoniale, che si trova sul soppalco, è privo di rete e di conseguenza è come se si dormisse per terra. Il bagno è angusto e buio mentre il divano letto,che si trova in cucina,ha le doghe quasi tutte rotte causando al povero malcapitato di turno un bel dolore alla schiena al suo risveglio.
E che dire poi del ragazzo dell'agenzia preposto alla consegna delle chiavi...una VERA DELUSIONE! fin da subito si è mostrato molto disponibile ma purtroppo, alla luce dei fatti, così non è stato; infatti più e più volte l'abbiamo chiamato telefonicamente per farci pulire meglio la camera piena di polvere (sottolineando pure che io ero allergica) e controllare il Wifi che non funzionava. Lui ogni volta ci rispondeva che avrebbe provveduto a risolvere il tutto ma in realtà le nostre banali richieste venivano del tutto ignorate...diciamo che se n'è ALTAMENTE FREGATO!
Alla fine, le mie conclusioni sono queste: NON CI RITORNEREI PER NULLA AL MONDO E NON CONSIGLIEREI MAI A NESSUN AMICO DI ALLOGGIARE PRESSO QUESTO MONOLOCALE.

Best Of :: Food & Drink
The caesar salad at Prime One Twelve is bigger than life itself. Or maybe not. Would you believe bigger than a breadbox? How about bigger than any other caesar salad in Miami? And better, too, not because of any trendy twists such as cotton candy croutons (the ones here are born of buttery brioche) or a sprinkling of fennel dust (paper-thin shavings of Parmigiano-Reggiano do the trick). Beneath the toppings are crisp hearts of romaine lettuce with a heady garlic-lemon-anchovy emulsion clinging to the leaves like Julius Caesar clung to Rome (or like Caesar Cardini held onto his original recipe for the salad). The caesar here is great because it is classic, as befits the city's most esteemed steak house. That it can feed two or three people makes the $15 price something of a bargain. One Twelve's fat prime steaks, Kobe beef hot dogs, or white truffle French fries are a bit pricier, but they complement the caesar quite well.
Remember that trip to Buenos Aires? There was supposed to be tango dancing until dawn and a smoky-eyed lover. Instead you tripped over your own feet and got fat eating alfajores. Now that you're back in Miami, the porteños are gone, but there are still alfajores. Buenos Aires Bakery offers three kinds of the cookie and dulce de leche sandwich at $2 a pop: dark chocolate, white chocolate, and maizena. The cookies are moist and the Argentine caramel perfectly gooey. Take a bite, make peace with your chubbiness, and daydream about the Paris of South America.
Argentine steaks are revered not because of how they're cooked, but because the meat is incredible. The cattle roam the fertile pastures of the pampas and are never forced to exert themselves (because exercise makes the meat tougher). They are carted around the country in train cars. This special treatment produces beef that melts when it hits your tongue and is unrivaled in tenderness and flavor.
But until just last year, the USDA — out of protectionism and semi-legitimate fears of hoof and mouth disease — banned the import of Argentine beef. Now that it can again be imported, you don't want to go to some fancy Argentine steak house and have them jack up the price on you just for cooking the meat. That's where Estancia Argentina comes in. It's a Miami-based chain owned by Buenos Aires transplants, with locations in Aventura, Coral Gables, Kendall, and Miramar. It's half restaurant, half market, and all good. The empanadas ($1.55) and sandwiches ($8) are delicious, made fresh with quality ingredients. The walls are lined with bottles of wine, so you can buy a Malbec and drink it with your meal. The meat counter is to drool over, with all sorts of Argentine beef cuts, cheeses, chorizos, and chimichurris. They also have great desserts ($1 to $5). The place is always packed with Spanish speakers enjoying a cup of vino or guarana soda with meaty skirt steak or prosciutto and mozzarella sandwiches. Join them.
There's no Brie, quail eggs, or diced jalapeños baked into the dough of the bagels at this Kendall joint. Nor is there any caviar-infused shmear or exotic fruit toppings shipped from some remote village in the heart of the Amazon. That's because The Bagel Express, a non-descript delicatessen squeezed into a small, suburban strip mall, simply makes great bagels. There's greatness in the first bite. And the second. And the thirtieth.
Made from scratch and baked fresh daily, the bagels here are classics — pumpernickel, sesame, egg, poppy seed, garlic, salt, cinnamon, plain, and everything. The price: $6.60 for six and $11.95 for a baker's dozen. For the carb-conscious, there's also whole wheat and eight-grain available with your choice of regular or low-fat cream cheese (plain, chive, vegetable, strawberry, and honey walnut) for $2.75 a pop. Speaking of pop, The Bagel Express has Dr. Brown sodas (diet and regular). Then there's fresh, hand-sliced Nova lox for $7.99 per quarter pound and delicious, buttery rugelach for $10.95 a platter.
Still not convinced? Oy vey! Then swing on in after the morning rush and try a Boar's Head deli sandwich served in a large woven basket with your choice of bagel, for $7.95. While you're there — now don't get all verklempt — ponder this: Although a bagel topped with Alba white truffle cream cheese and goji berry-infused Riesling jelly sounds superb, it'll run you $1,000 at the Westin Hotel in Times Square. But these tasty bites in Kendall will cost you a mere $1.25 each. Enjoy!
If great bread is the staff of life, all of us here in South Florida are living on borrowed time, eating mushy, pallid, tasteless loaves made from ultrarefined flour that no self-respecting Parisian or Italian would use for a doorstop. But thankfully, for those special occasions, we have La Provence, where you can get a proper baguette ($2) or crusty loaf of sourdough ($2.25) or hunk of multigrain ($4.35). But man (and woman) doesn't live by bread alone, so if you're hungry for a light, flaky croissant; luscious Danish, fruit tart, or cheesecake; even savory quiches or empanadas, La Provence has you covered there too. Just no doorstops.
For more than nine years, Aziza Yuself has made Varanda's a place where Brazilians can savor authentic cuisine. That's why the low-key eatery draws so many of the Brazilian expatriates residing in North Beach, who can watch Brazilian television and have long conversations in Portuguese while dining on exceptionally good food, especially the muqueca de peixe, fish perfectly simmered in a coconut sauce ($14.95). Meat lovers will enjoy the picadinho ao mohlo, beef strips in a delicious hot sauce, for $10.95, or the frango ao mohlo curry, curry chicken in coconut sauce for $13.95. For many folks, Varanda's is a home away from home, but even if you're not from São Paulo, you can drop by too.

What would pay?
I current have an 2002 BMW 330ci with 116k while visiting my local bmw dealer on Friday to pick up a new key and came across an 05 BMW m3 fully loaded getting ready to go to auction on Wednesday. It has 86k the car is in amazing shape and they had it listed at 17k and haven't been able to sell it and did not want to do repairs if there was no buyer. The owner of bmw has advised me straight up it has an oil leak( unsure where its coming from till tech relooks at car) and needs back breaks and rotors. It also needs two back tires. What would you offer for it knowing its headed to auction and what néeds repaired? Car is blue with grey seats and manual. I'll know more about previous ownership Monday.
Since I own this same body style I know what I am getting into mostly. I have read the wiki and understand the risk. If the price is right I will be adding this one to my fleet and later down the road sell my 330ci when I take delivery of my 2013 328M package.
Kbb runs this car price at retail. 21,255 and private 17,755
Nada:: $$21975
I do a lot of my own work but the thing that worries me is the oil leak. I can do the brakes, rotors and tire change. Would you buy it for a lower price as is?
Or request the dealer fixes the issues an buy for listing price at 17k and have a warranty added? I have no warranty on my 02. Was looking into extended warranties for the m3, has anyone else got one? Are they worth it in your opinion.
What would you offer on this car?? Btw: car is royal blue(dark)::grey seats: fully loaded: 18 or 19 inch tires they are staggered. No dings,dents or curb rash from what I could see. They wouldn't let me drive it till monday(tomorrow).
Can't wait to hear some responses with some numbers. If you've bought on recently that lines up with this one throw me numbers
Thanks Kaitland :)
Skip it and find another one. Color combo is not desirable and looks like it'll be a headache. You can find a decent priced well maintained example for a similar price. Stay away from gray seats, had them on my 330ci, they do not age very well.
Take your time and look for the right one. If its leaking oil the previous owner did not take very good care of it. Usually used car lots get the cars that people want to get rid of for various problems. Who knows what else is wrong with it. But that's just my .02

WEST CHESTER, PA -- Now available from MEI is the Easitrax Advance 5000 telemeter, which is designed to bolster vending profitability, beginning with augmented cashless functionality. Introduced to replace the Easitrax RDP telemeter, the Advance 5000 can communicate over Verizon's CDMA, as well as AT&T's 2G and 3G networks.
Users have the ability to communicate in wireless wide- and local-area, and wired Ethernet network configurations. These connectivity choices reportedly provide the flexibility to seek out the best data rates and coverage solutions for locations in which one or another signal is weak or unavailable.
Secure cashless solutions are another critical need for operators today, MEI continued. The Advance 5000 is PCI-certified, complying with the Payment Card Industry Data Security Standard.
Plans call for adding functionality in the months ahead, including an option for using the Advance 5000 as the control center for full-line machine telemetry. Dual IP and APN (Internet Protocol and Access Point Network) capabilities allow both cashless and telemetry communications to be directed independently from the new telemeter, providing an additional layer of data security.
(A later release will reportedly feature an offline data recorder to capture information of machines not on networks. An ODR, inside the base telemeter, works by querying an offline machine between operator visits, and recording its daily granular sales and alarm data -- see story.)
MEI predicted that its reputation for secure note validation combined with the Advance 5000's security would strengthen operators' confidence in upselling cashless solutions to new accounts. It works with Apriva and other gateways to give operators a choice of back-end service providers that will meet their card processing and reporting criteria. The Advance 5000 is designed to support two-tier pricing, which can help mitigate rising transaction fees.
The Advance 5000 is modular and scalable, which "future-proofs" the operator's investment. MEI noted that operators can "plug and play" from the base unit, adding and removing the communication modules required to connect, configure and bring their cashless solution online.
Information is available from MEI authorized distributors, or may be requested from a sales team member by calling the company at (800) 345-8215.

brute forcing is a dictionary attack.Is it true that brute forcing isn't effective on wpa2 and that dictionary attacks are the only effective means of breaking it? if so why is that.

|Greater celandine
|Scientific classification
Tourn. ex L.
|C. majus
|Binomial name
|Chelidonium majus
Chelidonium majus, commonly known as greater celandine or tetterwort,[2](although tetterwort also refers to Sanguinaria canadensis), nipplewort,[3] or swallowwort,[3] is a herbaceous perennial plant, the only species in the genus Chelidonium. It is native to Europe and western Asia and introduced widely in North America.
While the greater celandine belongs to the poppy family, the lesser celandine belongs to the buttercup family.
Taxonomy and naming[edit]
The greater celandine is one of the many species described by the father of taxonomy, Carl Linnaeus, in volume one of his Species Plantarum in 1753.[4] According to the Oxford English Dictionary, celandine comes from Late Latin celidonia, from earlier Latin chelidonia or chelidonium, and ultimately from Ancient Greek χελιδόνιον, from χελιδών (chelidṓn) "swallow". Ancient writers said that the flower bloomed when the swallows returned and faded when they left.[5]
Greater celandine is a perennial herb with an erect habit, and reaches 30 to 120 cm high. The leaves are pinnate with lobed and wavy-edged margins, up to 30 cm long. When injured, the plant exudes a yellow to orange latex.
The flowers consist of four yellow petals, each about 1 cm long, with two sepals. A double-flowered variety occurs naturally. The flowers appear from late spring to summer in umbelliform cymes of about 4 flowers.
The seeds are small and black, borne in a long, cylindrical capsule. Each has an elaiosome, which attracts ants to disperse the seeds (myrmecochory).
It is considered an aggressive invasive plant in parts of North America.[6] Control is obtained mainly via pulling or spraying the plant before seed dispersal.
The whole plant is toxic in moderate doses as it contains a range of isoquinoline alkaloids but there are numerous therapeutic uses when used at the correct dosage.[7] The main alkaloid present in the herb and root is coptisine. Other alkaloids present include methyl 2'-(7,8-dihydrosanguinarine-8-yl)acetate, allocryptopine,[8] stylopine, protopine, norchelidonine, berberine, chelidonine, sanguinarine, chelerythrine,[9] and 8-hydroxydihydrosanguinarine.[10] Sanguinarine is particularly toxic with an LD50 of 18 mg per kg body weight (IP in rats).[11] Caffeic acid derivatives, such as caffeoylmalic acid, are also present.[12]
Some alkaloids have shown potential activity against methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus.[13]
The effect of the fresh herb is of a mild analgesic, cholagogic, antimicrobial, oncostatic and central nervous system sedative.[14] In vitro experiments on animal cells have shown celandine to be cytostatic.[15] An immune stimulating effect has also been noted.[citation needed] Some studies show that the alkaloid extraction can have the same effects. The alkaloids are known to cause immobilization in mice after being ingested orally or injected. The alkaloids cause limpness and tone reduction of smooth muscle in rabbits. The alkaloids are also noted to stimulate the heart and lungs of frogs, cats and dogs, raising the blood pressure and widening the arteries.[citation needed]
The latex could be employed for cauterizing small open wounds.[citation needed] Early studies of celandine showed that it causes contact dermatitis and eye irritation, particularly from contact with the poisonous red to yellow latex of the stem. This effect has not been observed in animal studies; no inflammation was observed in rabbit eye tests. The latex can leave a non-permanent stain. Stains on skin of the fingers are sometimes reported to cause eye irritation after rubbing the eyes or handling contact lenses. The latex is also known to stain clothes.
The characteristic latex also contains proteolytic enzymes and the phytocystatin chelidostatin, a cysteine protease inhibitor.[16] These co-constituents could explain the topical use of greater celandine against warts and moles.
"Ukrain" (Ukrainian: Україн) is an alternative medicine promoted to treat cancer based on chelidonium. The drug was created in 1978 by the Ukrainian chemist Vasyl Novytskyi. The drug is named in honor of the nation of Ukraine and is produced by an Austrian company Nowicky Pharma.[17] Although the drug was never approved by any regulators, Novytskyi claimed it to be a complete cure for all cancers, radiation-induced diseases and AIDS and was arrested in Vienna for aggravated fraud on September 4, 2012.[18]
C. majus has shown analgesic activity at 200 mg/kg dose in mice.[19]
The aerial parts and roots of greater celandine are used in herbalism. The above-ground parts are gathered during the flowering season and dried at high temperatures. The root is harvested in autumn between August and October and dried. The fresh rhizome is also used. Celandine has a hot and bitter taste. Preparations are made from alcoholic and hot aqueous extractions (tea). The related plant bloodroot has similar chemical composition and uses as greater celandine.
As far back as Pliny the Elder and Dioscorides (1st century CE) this herb has been recognized as a useful detoxifying agent. The root has been chewed to relieve toothache.[20] John Gerard's Herball (1597) states that "the juice of the herbe is good to sharpen the sight, for it cleanseth and consumeth away slimie things that cleave about the ball of the eye and hinder the sight and especially being boiled with honey in a brasen vessell."[21]
It was formerly used by some Romani people as a foot refresher; modern herbalists use its purgative properties.[22] The modern herbalist Juliette de Baïracli Levy recommended greater celandine diluted with milk for the eyes and the latex for getting rid of warts.[23] Chelidonium was a favourite herb of the French herbalist Maurice Mességué. Chelidonium majus has traditionally been used for treatment of various inflammatory diseases including atopic dermatitis.[24] It is also traditionally used in the treatment of gallstones and dyspepsia.[25]
The Iroquois give an infusion of whole plant, another plant and milk to pigs that drool and have sudden movements.[26]
