"I believe there is too much European legislation, and that small businesses in particular should be exempted from overly bureaucratic international laws. I am Chair of one of the busiest committees in the Parliament in order to try to amend and delete overbearing EU laws."
The European Parliament runs a committee structure where all members have a seat on one main committee and usually a second substitute committee. In July 2014 following the European Parliamentary election, Vicky was nominated and elected to chair the Internal Market and Consumer Protection Committee. For more information about IMCO, please cick here.
Vicky was previously a full member of the Industry, Research and Energy committee (ITRE). Vicky explains: "This committee is vital to the interests of the East of England and the UK. Our region has world leading businesses particularly in innovative research. Energy supply and energy security are also key challenges for the years ahead. We cannot solve these problems in the UK by acting alone. Furthermore some of EU legislation and top down targets have added costs to energy bills, making it harder for our companies to compete on a global stage. This needs to be changed."
As part of ITRE, Vicky led the European Parliament negotiations on safety of offshore Oil and Gas, fighting off proposals to ban new drilling. She was also the only UK MEP involved in negotiations to reform EU spending on Research and Innovation.
Vicky says: "It is a little known fact that there are more UK companies, scientists and universities involved in EU funded research programs than from any other country. This is a vast amount of money, but is also hugely bureaucratic. International
co-operation in these areas can help researchers develop solutions to some of our great challenges like health and aging, food, energy and water security and help fuel innovation and growth - but it should not compromise our own national investment decisions."
Vicky was also a substitute member of the Economic and Monetary Affairs Committee and the Conservative Party's spokesman. As a substitute member she attended and took part in all debates on this committee. Vicky has campaigned heavily against EU proposals such as the Financial Transaction Tax, and has successfully fought off proposals which would have banned buy-to-let mortgages.
She achieved a relaxing of rules on bank capital in order to assist lending smaller companies. As parliament "rapporteur" she negotiated a specific exemption for the UK from EU rules which give Brussels oversight of national budgets, the first time such an exemption had been granted to any country. Vicky is also defending the UK interests in new rules regarding bank failures, arguing that the UK should not contribute to Eurozone funds for bank bail-outs as we have our own banking levy for the UK.
This committee is responsible for scrutinising and negotiating all banking and financial services regulation. Vicky explains: "In the years running up to the credit-crunch there was clearly a breakdown in the regulation and supervision of banks and certain
other financial institutions that allowed for such unpredicted risks to accumulate. It is vital that we learn the lessons from the past and put in place a stable regime for banking and financial services. Financial services are often global industries and it is important that we work with financial centers across the world to make sure that the approach is universal as over-legislating in the UK or EU will just send jobs to other parts of the world. However it is also critical that we understand the importance of financial services in the whole economy and one sized fits all rules are often not appropriate. Businesses, large and small, need capital to grow and create jobs - we must make sure that British businesses and employees are not put at a disadvantage when it comes to accessing capital."
Vicky has also had a seat as a substitute member of the Environment Committee.
Conservatives in the European Parliament are part of a new political grouping the "European Conservative and Reformist Group." We believe in a United Europe of Sovereign States not a United States of Europe."
The ECR principles are outlined in the Prague declaration.

Western markets are not dominated by Chinese brands. It is the Chinese market that is being dominated by foreign brands. Even in surveys, local Chinese brands get criticized for poor quality and engineering and lacks the trust
When China started to make cars, a chill went through automakers in the US and Europe. They shared a vision of millions of cars made with exceptionally cheap labour landing on western shores. It looked like a repeat of the success experienced by the two exporting powerhouses, Japan and Korea. Besides, China was well on its way to become the workshop of the world dominating sector after sector. Why not cars?
Why not indeed. Something happened that had not been predicted by the economists and analysts. It wasn't the western markets that were dominated by Chinese brands. It was the Chinese market that became dominated by foreign brands.
Ten years ago, Chinese brands controlled 70% of the local market. Now they have been reduced to 45%. If you exclude the barebones pickup trucks and minivans that make up the light commercial vehicle market, domestic brands have only 29.5% of the market.
Even in a globalized world, it is distressing to watch foreigners come to dominate a local markets. This is especially, true for an important industrial segment like automobile manufacturing. Even in the US, where the Japanese cars have been present for 40 years, there are places where it is considered unpatriotic to own one.
Why have the Chinese failed to build successful brands even in their home market? Obviously, they have not been able to match the quality of developed countries' manufacturers. Until recently, they were very competitive on price. Why can't they seem to develop successful brands?
The reason for the failure is the way the Chinese government use their legal and regulatory system. Foreign companies coming to China to produce products for export were lightly regulated in every way. China wanted to encourage exports and follow the Japanese model. In contrast, foreign companies that wanted to sell into China faced discrimination.
In theory, this sort of protectionism should have worked, but instead it backfired. The first problem for local brands was a lack of trust. For example, large Chinese dairies were only subject to minimal safety regulations. They took advantage of this by lacing infant formula with melamine a byproduct of coal. Melamine was put into the formula to allow substandard milk to pass protein tests. The result was a national scandal in 2008. Six children died and over 300,000 were sickened.
To this day, Chinese consumers go to great lengths to buy foreign brands. They even ask their friends traveling to other countries to send back infant formula a few cases at a time.
Rather than force local dairies, many of them government owned, to adhere to stricter standards, the Chinese government used laws, policy and even the state media to strike back at foreign brands.
The state television has accused Danone, the French food company, of bribing hospitals in Tianjin to use its infant formula. It restricts importation of foreign infant formula created for other markets imported by third parties into China. To help local dairies it has created subsidies.
The auto industry has similar problems. Domestic Chinese auto companies didn't do well in crash tests. In surveys, local brands get criticized for poor quality and engineering.
Foreign companies are required to form 50-50 partnerships with local firms. The Chinese were thinking of dropping this requirement. Trading partners might retaliate if China were ever to start exporting cars in large numbers. But since they don't, the largest politically connected; state owned Chinese companies were able to keep the restriction in force. With this type of protectionism in place, it is even more unlikely that China will be able to develop export markets.
The Chinese required foreign companies to produce "indigenous" brands. For example BMW Brilliance makes the local Zinoro. Dongfeng Nissan builds the Venucia. The most successful is the SAIC-GM-Wuling Automobile Company's Baojun. They sold 100,000 Baojins in 2013 up 20%. This would be great except that Baojun's achievement came at the expense of local Chinese brands.
China has also inhibited foreign competition by failing to enforce intellectual property laws. Stealing intellectual property in China is done on a massive scale including wide spread computer hacking to steal information.
Stealing from foreigners may seem like a good idea in the short term. But if Chinese companies can steal from western companies they can also steal from each other. A brand is one of the most important and valuable assets of any company. If it cannot be protected, then companies do not have an incentive to build it up.
Consumers in India, Indonesia and the Philippines do not have the overwhelming preference for foreign brands. Indonesia and the Philippines actually have a clear preference for local brands. India gives the foreign brands a slight edge.
What is interesting is that although their preferences are slightly different, the views of local and foreign brands in these three countries are quite similar. Foreign brands are considered to be more fashionable and of better quality. Local brands are believed to offer a better price. There is a universal preference to support local companies. As to reliability, consumers in all countries rated both local and foreign brands about equally.
It's not that Chinese companies cannot compete with foreigners. Jin Duo Bao is a cold herbal tea that outsells Coca-Cola in China even though it is more expensive. It sells well because it is appeals to local beliefs and preferences.
Rather than attempt to regulate the market, the Chinese should take a lesson from the Indian processed foods market. The local companies view their competitors as positive. With large advertising budgets foreign firms have been able to increase the size of the market and create new market segments that nimble local companies with better distribution and local knowledge can exploit.
Every policy, every law, every regulation created by governments to solve a problem will have unintended consequences. These are sometimes worse than the issue that was meant to be solved. Sometimes the best use of power is not to use it at all.

When CEOs do not follow ECI guideline of maximum 1,200 voters per booth, it certainly reduces the voter turnout, by design and not due to voter apathy as pronounced by armchair experts and authorities
At 5 past 7 O' clock on 17th April, I was the third person in queue in front of my polling booth. One voter was inside the booth, arguing that his name was in the voter list while the polling booth officer was unable to find the name in the list. After about five minutes, which felt like 50, he cast his vote and allowed the queue to move. With the rate at which the queue moved, I hope that the 1,359 voters in my booth could cast their votes by 6pm, the deadline for voting.
The Election Commission of India (ECI) has taken exemplary steps to set up polling booths in remote areas even to cater for a single voter. A Times of India story states, "Mahant Bharatdas Darshandas is the lone voter in the midst of Gujarat's Gir forest, home to the Asiatic lion, for whom an entire election team sets up a polling booth every election — and will do so again on 30th April. … a polling team [of 4 to 5 people] travels around 35km to reach the hamlet of Banej inside the Gir forest, located in Junagadh district." We salute the spirit and efforts of ECI to include every eligible citizen in the democratic process of elections.
However, this exemplary step is only an example. We have many booths with voter population much higher than what ECI has stipulated, making it impossible for people to vote within the time available, even with the usage of electronic voting machines (EVMs).
Technical features of EVM:
"Operationally an Indian EVM is a set of two units – the ballot unit and the control unit. A vote can be recorded only after the presiding officer enables the ballot unit through the control unit. However, even the presiding officer cannot enable the ballot for twelve seconds after every ballot is cast. Thus, a maximum of five votes can be cast in one minute." – Dr SY Quraishi, page 192, "An Undocumented wonder; The Making of the Great Indian Election", Rainlight/ Rupa.
For each voter to move out of the polling box and the next person to enter, we can consider about 18 seconds. Thus, practically, we expect maximum two votes cast in one minute if (a) the voters are enthusiastic and clear about the voting process; (b) the polling staff is efficient and ensure smooth uninterrupted flow of voters; (c) electoral rolls are clean and unambiguous …
Remember that the officials search voter names in paper rolls – not on a computer terminal. People on polling duty take time to find a name in the rolls if the voter does not carry a voter slip with correct details. Though required, chief electoral officers (CEOs) do not give voter slips in some areas. Queues stagnate when a name is not found in the rolls.
Polling booths remain open for 11 hours as directed by ECI. With uninterrupted flow of voters and super efficient polling booth staff, 120 votes cast per hour, 1,320 votes may be cast per booth in a day. If a booth has more voters, then the administration is at fault. Even with voter enthusiasm and efficient staff, we cannot expect good voter participation.
Paragraph 37 of Handbook for Electoral Registration Officers (EROs), published by ECI in 2012 states, "… Registration of Electors Rules, 1960 indicates that the number of names to be included in any part should not ordinarily exceed 2000. The commission has however, with voter's convenience in mind, has desired that a part should not have more than 1200 electors in urban area and 1000 electors in rural area."
ECI guidelines are not only for voter convenience, but are necessary to allow the system to work even in ideal conditions. If the voters in a booth exceed 1,200, many voters may not get their turn to vote. Serpentine queues would form demoralising the voters. Many could return without voting.
In sample booths of some cities, we find the following:
Rolls of
Booths with
> 1200 voters
Booths with
> 2000 voters
Voters in largest booth
Mar 2014
Mar 2014
Mar 2014
Oct 2013
Sept 2013
Jan 2014
The features of the EVM technically put a limit of five votes per minute. This could be achieved in a simulation, without any gap between two voters and achieve 3,300 votes in the 11 hours duration of voting. Thus even in a simulated run, not all the voters in a booth can vote. Being illogically optimistic, if we consider a gap of 3 seconds between two voters through the day, then we have 4 voters per minute, which allows 2,640 voters to cast votes during the day.
However, the ECI guideline of maximum 1,200 voters per booth is pragmatic. In the sets of samples, 36% of booths in Delhi, 32% in Chennai, 26% in Bangalore, 16% in Mumbai and 1.4% in Kolkata have more than 1,200 voters. This will certainly reduce the voter turnout, by design and not due to voter apathy as pronounced by armchair experts and authorities. We should be alarmed if we find a high voter turnout in large booths.
When ECI cares much for the lone voter in a forest, provisions in several populated areas are grossly inadequate to allow citizens to vote.
Bad electoral management can turn voters out and complain about poor voter turnout.

Globe Domination
View all 6 photos...
After asking today what I should blog about next, this title came about, for some mysterious reason.Yes I have been on a bit of a world domination spree lately.Ok, not just lately I admit, its in my blood, my nature, my character.
I wasnt always this way.Used to be a doormat in my youth, but times change us and any knocks or bad experiencesjust callous the heart and make us harder.I have had my share of those, more than my fair share, in fact.However in the words of beautiful Pink, I wouldnt trade the pain for what Ive learned.Better to be harsh, embittered, hard, domineering and cynical than a naive, gullible, soppy, blase, innocent doormat?
Well perhaps not for everyone, but this is my armour and Id rather keep it on, thank you.My protection is to be ruthless, cut-throat and vicious at times.Attack is the best form of defence after all.I can appear heartless, vindictive and ice cold, as anyone who has been on the receiving end of one of my ranting tirades will agree.It is an awful way to view the world, perhaps, in some peoples opinion.Why not be optimistic, expect the best from people, put faith in humanity?
I would so love to be like that but we are only the sum of our experiences, and.o believe her ex-brother-in-law, and as a longtime fan with a perpetual soft spot for this girl, especially after all her troubles, I say leave Britney alone!Have you ever had an ex's family member go nuts on you? Hopefully not to this degree!Other celebs with recen.d conducted vibrations perfectly.
So strong was my grip on the Fifi that when I removed my hand from the base the vibrator stayed in position unlike others which tend to vibrate all the way out. Up to now the performance of this vibrator was impressive.I pressed the button taking the speed up to max and it was felt fantastic, a slight movement of my hand in and out rubbed my? G spot and guided the clit vibes up and down the length of my clitoris. Orgasm was imminent so I pressed the middle function button and the vibrator started to throb which hurtled me towards my tipping point as my breath started to become shallow and rapid.
My toes curled my heart beat quickened in my chest and an electrifying feeling took over my body from feet to my pelvis…I quivered as I came leaving hold of the Fifi to grasp at the duvet.If I had to make a criticism of the Fifi it would be that the middle button, used to select the pulsing modes, is quite small and can be difficult to operate.
You seem to have to press hard to get it to click and advance to the next pattern.I was concerned about the volume of the toy when I tried it in my hand but when in use and inside
, it's just fine.This vibrator is perfect for the moderate to experienced user but may be a little overwhelming for a rabbit newbie, I'm not sure they would be ready for the all consuming experience of using it. But it is certainly a vibrator to work your way up to. Je Joue, Fifi vibrator, rabbit vibrator, silicone vibrator, silicone sex toy, rechargeable vibrator designer vibrator.

Dark chocolate Adore Component 1
View all 6 photos...
He took me that night, to some fantastical chocolate place and I don't mean from a Roald Dahl book.I love food and I love sex.Combine the two for the kinkiest, sexiest, most perverted sex.I adore it.Having admitted this fact to him, he obviously wanted to take full advantage.
I love when he takes full advantage of me.Anyway.I'm not sure if we covered the After Eights occasion that happened a few months ago?They were left upon the side after an evening.Everyone had gone upstairs and we were left embracing on the sofa in the lounge.Talk turned to teasing turned to fondling turned to glances by him to the After Eights and a really naughty twinkle in his eye I gulped.
He smiled wider.Pushing my head down to suck him (I love when he does that, hand either firmly in my hair or grasping my pony tail if I've made one and really shoving me down), he moaned contentedly as I took him into my mouth.Turning me round half way so I was in 69 position sucking him, my pussy over his face.From where he was he could reach the table beside usSuddenly, I feel cold, smooth, SOMEthing entering me.Being pushed slowly into me.My lips being peeled apart, me still with his cock deep in .ight to me.So there you have it.Ive totally changed my mind about the whole competing with an ex thing.When youre happy in your relationship, your ex is the last person on your mind.But what do you think? How do you feel about the whole celeb ex phenomenon?
Has it ever.ed with water based lubricant the Flange slipped into place feeling before the current was applied like any other small to medium sized butt plug.Suze tentatively applied the current and I felt stimulation almost immediately and found I needed only a low setting to get a tingling thrill and twitching anus that gripped the probe with each pulse. Suze realised I had reached my maximum comfortable level and experimented with the feel and rate of stimulation.Then I surprised her and myself by asking her to turn up the power.
Each time she increased the stimulation I waited, got used to and enjoyed the sensation and then wanted a little more.Wow!Using the kit was a thoroughly enjoyable and interesting experience.The controllability of the Series 1 Power Box is such that even novices can feel confident that electroplay is something that puts them and/or their partner in charge of their pleasure.Every element of the kit feels slightly industrial and is presented in a similar manner but manages to feel solid, well built and simple to use too.The controls are smooth and robust with the variable knobs having a velvety action and the four position mode selector positive and purposeful.
Users of this kit can feel confident that they decide how much or how little stimulation they will experience, which is probably why I found anal stimulation particularly quite addictive.In fact I even found Suze toying with the "Flange" electrode in the bathroom after I'd washed it so who knows … I might be in charge of the Power Box tomorrow night!

Diary: Woman Day Consider two! Wining, eating as well as L'ensem
View all 6 photos...
You may remember that my girl and I went for a Girl Date to Wagamamas and to see the wonderful Les Miserables film.We enjoyed it so much we decided to go again!I booked the tickets a couple of days before and on that Sunday (20 January 2013) off we were driven to the
Brayford Waterfront in nearby Lincoln city centre, where there is a lovely ODEON cinema and some great nightlife, pubs, clubs, restaurants all that kinda thing.We werent sure where wed eat this time.Wagas was fantastic the week before, but we wanted to try somewhere new.
Upon arriving we strolled around and finally decided upon ASK, an Italian themed, modern looking eaterie, clean and cheerful and moderately busy with a bustling atmosphere.ettling in our seats we were pleased to be in from the frosty air outside.The waiter brought us some menus and we had a little peek at the offerings.Of course we looked at the wine menu first.Did you expect anything else?
I had a glass of Pinot Grigio and Harlot enjoyed the Pinot blush.We chatted and enjoyed the wine then decided to indulge in a bottle between us.Well why not? Night out, no driving wine is always a good plan!Harlot pre.e me feel stupid at my next event.Dating is hard enough!Don't you think a book swap is a brilliant
cheap vibrators
way to get new summer reading material and meet a hot bookworm? Are you proud of me for going to this event on my own and not leaving 30 seconds into it?
I kind of am, if .he escalation modes.I simply left the vibe wedged between my lips, resting it on my thighs. This gave the strongest waves of vibration and this little baby is powerful. My clit was responding to the attention and I'm sure I could feel it pulsing in time with the escalating rhythm. One moment, just have to turn the volume down, those girls make some right noise and I have neighbours. This felt really good but I wasn't quite there yet.
I pressed the + button once more and was returned to the continuous vibratory mode. Another couple of clicks and it was set to full vibration, I started to impulsively roll my hips just like I was using a small hoola hoop.That was it!? I had found the
perfect stimulation, the strong vibrations coupled with my hip movement was gently massaging my clitoris in to submission. A touch of genious, I pressed my hand on to the back of the head nuzzling it firmly against my swollen bud.
The combination of vibration, pressure and movement soon had my back arching and I knew orgasm was imminent. A few more gyrations and I was there, toes and fingers tingling as my body was wracked with pleasure. A loud moan escaped from my lips as I placed my spine back on to the mattress.This toy is wonderful for a vibrator newbie because it is so versatile, you can use it for massage, clitoral stimulation and even slip the tip inside for internal pleasure. The trade off for such power is the noise level, it's not a toy you could use discreetly, although it isn't the loudest vibrator I have come across.

Sinful Weekend: L8rs L8rs Dull, Hi Rock and roll Girl!
View all 6 photos...
Last week saw the transformation in me with new hair colour, black/red then an actual night out, to an actual pub and not even just that an actual club afterwards all at 6 months pregnant! Its making me yawn again thinking about it.~has a quick nap~But never mind that.
I don't feel boring any more, which I say counts as a win.I have actually been in tears at ti. about as important.As penis size increased, so did the attractiveness scores, especially in flaccid (sorry for that word) penises up to 3 inches.Interesting factors: Women with greater body mass index more strongly preferred bigger penises, and size was most critical to a tall man's attractiveness, probably for proportional purposes.
Luckily for dudes concerned about being judged on their possibly inferior characteristics, how often to women go around meeting totally naked guys and ranking them on their bodie. just in time. He climbed the stairs and walked in to the bedroom."I see you have been keeping yourself entertained", he quipped.I smiled and removed the Oui from under the duvet to show him."Oh, it arrived then", he grinned at me.After removing his suit and shirt he climbed in to the bed with me wearing just a pair of bottom hugging boxer shorts.
I placed the vibe on top of his groin, his cock twitched, he was clearly enjoying the feel of me and the massager on his stiffening dick.Within minutes he was hard and ready to please.And he did.Yes, I loved the Oui, it's small inoffensive and powerful but I was a little disappointed that the seal on the toy inhibits it's use near bodily fluids or water.
But I'm sure the design could be adapted to possibly by fitting a seal to overcome this.That said this toy has inspired me to spend a little more time loving myself rather than simply getting off.So the question is, do you like this massager? My reply can only be "Oui".You will??be able buy the Oui from the usual Cal Exotics outlets such as Pleasure Productions and ?Eden Fantasys.(NB at the time of this review only Pleasure Productions seem to list the product).

(The Hosting News) – In an effort to attract more Office 365 customers, Microsoft is offering more cloud storage space to its subscribers.
On Monday the tech giant announced that OneDrive customers would be receiving more than double the amount of free storage currently offered, giving users 15GB instead of only 7GB.
"Our data tells us that 3 out of 4 people have less than 15GB of files stored on their PC," wrote Omar Shahine, OneDrive Group Program Manager, via blog post. "Factoring in what they may also have stored on other devices, we believe providing 15GB for free right out of the gate — with no hoops to jump through — will make it much easier for people to have their documents, videos, and photos available in one place."
Now Office 365 subscribers will get 1TB of cloud storage instead of the 20GB that was previously offered. This includes Office 365 Home, Office 365 Personal, and University customers.
Microsoft also lowered the monthly prices of its storage plans. Users purchasing 100GB will only be charged $1.99, down from $7.49, and 200GB will be $3.99, previously $11.49.
Current subscribers of OneDrive will be automatically moved to the new plans when the updates release next month.

Les Kiss faith is repaid in Ulster late show against Dragons
While unhappy with aspects of his team's performance on Friday night, Ulster's director of rugby Les Kiss maintained he never lost hope that his team would claw their way back against Dragons and claim a win that took them to the top of the Pro12 table.
The province took their first lead of the game as late as the 78th minute - with Paddy Jackson stroking over the second of two penalty attempts having bounced the first agonisingly against the bar - but Kiss's belief that his side would win didn't waver, even in the face of a 13-man Welsh defence.
"I don't think I ever put my head down and thought we haven't got this," he reflected after a 17-15 win in the first of three consecutive home games.
"I thought there was still the capacity for us to forge into a place where we could win the game, without a doubt."
One area of particular concern for a man who served as Ireland's defence coach before coming to Kingspan was his side's tackling, especially after allowing Ashton Hewitt to break from inside his own half to create the game's opening try.
With last year's league champions Glasgow Warriors next up in Belfast on Friday, the Australian knows his side must be better if they are to maintain their table-topping position.
"Our first up tackles weren't as good as they usually are," he said."I know Joe Barakat will have a field day in the video review. The truth is, we let them get momentum through offloads and tackles that didn't have enough sting in them.
"We're a little disappointed with that and we know that we need to be better next week against Glasgow. They haven't had the best of seasons but they're a good team. You don't win the Pro12 if you aren't."
Despite Jackson being returned from Ireland camp to feature for his province when he no doubt will have anticipated playing some part against Wales in the Aviva Stadium yesterday, the young out-half's captain Rob Herring had no doubts about the goal-kicker's temperament as he approached the decisive penalty.
"To be fair to Jacko he stepped up and didn't even question it," said Herring, who himself, along with centre Stuart McCloskey, was released from Carton House mid-week.
"He went straight for the ball and wanted to take the kick. He knew he had it in him.
"He was probably disappointed about the last one but he's got a great temperament and he stepped up and slotted it well."
Like Kiss, Herring was quick to acknowledge the contest had far from gone to plan but stressed that the key to victory was maintaining composure, even after failing to cross the whitewash with Matthew Screech and Ben White in the bin.
"In the first-half, to be fair to Dragons they came at us and had good ball retention," he said.
"We were maybe a bit soft in defence, too many dropped tackles.
"We dealt with it, to be three points down at half-time, and we came out in the second-half with a bit more intensity and took it from there.
"Everyone just said stay calm, I think there was still 15 minutes to play (after Dragons were restored to 15).
"We knew we had it in us, we were starting to get a bit of momentum in the game and we knew if we kept them under pressure then we could come away with points.
"Two more home games coming up, we're top of table now.
"People can catch us next week but hopefully we can keep building on it and stay in the top two."

Developer quotes Edit
In Conan we have special, massive, regions coined (but they have distinct names - "Laceish Planes", "Murrogh Forest" etc.) "Resource & Building Regions". They contain 5-8 village locations. These village locations can be occupied by guilds, putting up their walls, towers, keeps and production facilities (to make swords or what have you.). That is, they can put these up unless monsters have settled there first. Picts, bandits or other darker creatures will sometimes call their mates and create their own village when they stumble upon these locations.
As a matter of fact, most of these locations will be occupied within a relative short matter of time. The struggle for resources in the Hyborian world is fierce, and there are no free lunches. Your guild will have to destroy the upstarts, and oust them from their straggling village. Then you can settle. The method of kicking monsters out is to use formations, individual battle and siege engines.
Be that as it may. The monsters can be thrown out of all the places they "hive" except one - the mother hive so to say. Here you will have to "chastise" them, or they will attack your village, burning it to the ground - if not protected. Most likely these sieges will be the places where the formations will "come into their own".
IGN, 11th May 2005 (Gaute Godager)
Using the village building technology, guilds can find a sponsor and build their own castle in a Border Kingdom instance. This will have to be defended against other guilds. You must destroy enemy walls, towers, and defenders before razing their keeps and castles to the ground. The ones holding areas in Border Kingdoms will gain bonuses to their guild. Let the best Siege Engine win!
Gamespy, 17th May 2005 (Gaute Godager)
The player villages found in what we call "resource and building Regions" will not be attackable by other players. They will be attacked by monsters. The battle keeps built in the Border Kingdoms will not be attacked by monsters, only other players.
For the villages attacked by monsters, they will burn to the ground, but they can of course be rebuilt. The cost of rebuilding is much less than that of building a complete new one. The buildings and keeps destroyed in PvP will be permanently gone, but you can of course rebuild when the heat of battle has calmed down.
Gamespy, 17th May 2005 (Gaute Godager)
Secondly, the players can build player-made cities and PvP player-made cities (every guild can have one of each) in the resource and building regions, or in the PvP regions. Although Conan is a very combat-focused game (making combat active and fun is our main priority), we are still making sure that all the other activities needed for a full-fledged MMO community are there.
IGN, 22th July 2005 (Gaute Godager)
City building locations are pre planned in the world and have different advantages. Some might have better access to resources while others will be in better tactical position and the like. So no one spot should be better than another more so it depends on what it offers in comparison to what you want.
Forums, 2nd November 2005 (Athelan)
To that end when it comes to the player villages and the like I do want to see them be hubs for player communities. So while I do not have details as far as if you can decorate or what all things will do I think that we will try to make the housing somewhat able to have individual touches.
Forums, 11th April 2006 (Athelan)
That's not to say we do not want your personal house in your player village to feel like your home and not some empty room.
Forums, 12th April 2006 (Athelan)
Yes, the plan for the player building and resource zones is that they will be instanced.
Forums, 21st April 2006 (Silirrion)
Monsters will begin hiving near player towns, creating a mirror town that will gradually be added to over time. Once the monster town grows large enough (after three or four weeks), it will start launching raids on player towns. While having a horde of screaming monsters coming to burn down your town might seem incentive to cut down the monster population as soon as they appear, full blown monsters towns with the biggest armories will also offer the best raid targets because they'll have the best loot.
Gamespy, 25th April 2006 (Gaute Godager)
While only guild members can have towns, they need solo players and affiliated groups. These are players that can purchase services from them, as well as allies when monsters attack. For more casual or "solo" gamers, being affiliated with a player town offers them the chance to take on tougher monsters that drop better loot (whether defending a town or participating in a monster town raid) without the time commitment of either being in a guild or organizing a more formal raid on a static target.
Gamespy, 25th April 2006 (Gaute Godager)
Guild players in PvP areas can build "battlekeeps" with most of the same structures and functionality as a PvE town. The major difference will be that that monster town over the horizon will be another battlekeep filled with bloodthirsty players just as sneaky as you are. Battles in this area will be more formalized in a sort of realm vs. realm structure that's still being worked out. According to Godager, there won't be any restrictions to keep a guild from operating both a town and a battlekeep, but any who do had better be large and quite well organized.

First lady Michelle Obama and her daughter Sasha have wrapped up their Spanish vacation.
They had lunch with Spain's King Juan Carlos and Queen Sofia at their summer palace on the island of Majorca before heading back to the United States.
As our Oval blog notes, Mrs. O. has been under fire from critics who felt her lavish vacation didn't sit well during our trying economic times.
White House officials say that the Obamas and friends paid their own way; taxpayers picked up the security costs.

Teaching, Learning and Assessment are three interconnected processes which help support the teacher (and parents) in providing the most relevant and application techniques to support individual children in their learning.
Teachers at Reach British School don't just teach 'the curriculum' – they teach the individual children in their care. This means that their knowledge of each individual child, groups of individual children and the whole-class are all taken in account when teachers plan their lessons. They build up a profile of each student through their observations of the child and through their analysis of student's work. They consider how the student learns (do they have particular interests, do they like particular activities, are they quiet or more outgoing, what is their current English language level and / or mother tongue level?) This information helps teachers understand how students learn and what motivates them. Conversations with the children themselves and their parents can also help support teachers in understanding how each child learns, which supports them in preparing lessons which maximise learning time. Through weekly collaborative planning sessions teachers share ideas about planning effective lessons and they monitor the progress children make closely, adapting their sequence and timings spent on particular topics to respond to children's needs. Teachers focus closely on whether what they have taught, children have actually learnt! Children mature and progress at different rates and teachers need to be mindful that each child is challenged to their level and not pushed too hard before they are developmentally ready to tackle particular concepts. This is very important for ensuring that students feel success in their learning and do not begin to feel inadequate. Learning is not a race and we can not expect all children to make the same rates of progress as others. Learning should not be seen as a competitive sport, we should be instilling a love of learning and developing risk-taking and a 'have a go' approach. When children are anxious, worried or lack motivation they simply will not learn.
As a significant number of our students are Arabic native speakers, teachers teaching the National Curriculum of England and teachers teaching Arabic, UAE Social Studies and Islamic try and support students' learning by teaching similar concepts and / or content areas at the same time. This is especially effective in pre-KG and KG1, where teachers teach the same thematic units and teach students vocabulary words in both languages to aid understanding. This is not always possible in primary and secondary school, where our curriculums have not been written in conjunction with each other. Nonetheless, where possible, this is attempted and is highlighted in teacher's yearly plans.
We believe that children learn best when they:
This should be organised to ensure that children
Social, physical, creative and academic achievements are celebrated in many ways as an on-going process in all aspects of school life, by:
All classrooms should have
Tables and chairs are arranged for:

Display in the school should be used to create an attractive and stimulating environment. The work displayed should be of a high standard and use both 2D and 3D in a variety of media and be changed frequently. It should include work on different aspects of the curriculum and reflect the individual child's efforts as well as ability. Ideally, Mathematics and Science displays should stimulate discussion and be accompanied by children's questions and answers. Sometimes they can be 'interactive'.
Routines and Rules Routines and rules in the classroom contribute to a healthy learning environment. To be effective they should be
All rules should result in the children knowing the boundaries of behaviour and are set within the terms of The Behaviour for Learning Policy.

Titanic II & Sinking
June 8, 2011 by staff
Titanic II & Sinking, A 16-foot yacht named the Titanic II followed the path of its namesake Sunday when a leak and sank on its maiden voyage, The Sun.
Britain's Mark Wilkinson, 44, had to be rescued from the port of West Bay, Dorset, United Kingdom, as she clung to the boat sinking.
"If not for the Port Authority, I would have sunk with the Titanic," Wilkinson told The Sun. "Everything is a little embarrassing – I'm sick of people ask me if I hit an iceberg."
Wilkinson had bought the boat second-hand, named the Titanic II, and decided to take him out fishing, reported The Sun. A large hole in the hull of fiberglass on their way back to port.
The "unsinkable" ocean liner Titanic struck an iceberg in 1912 on its maiden voyage to New York, 1517 people was killed.

The Mystic Forest, Jaldapara
Jaldapara Madarihat Jalpaiguri
Ranked 5 amongst 16 hotels in Jaldapara
The Mystic Forest Reviews (15)
"Very good hotel and had a pleasant stay"
I travelled to Jaldapara and stayed in this hotel in the month of November 2016. The destination and location of the hotel was good. The appearance of the hotel is good both internally and externally. There was no garden or lawn facility. There was no delay in Check in and Check out. The service of the staff in the hotel was good. The room in the hotel was good with required amenity in working condition. I did not eat food at this hotel. There were no activities in the hotel.
"Excellent food and services "
Room services, ambiances, surrounding, food is excellent. Especially food quality, just like never tasted before. Even if you do not like to roam around, you can just spend your time within the premises. Nice arrangements. No one to disturb until you want. Clean room, toilet with hot shower, television, good dining place. Best part is their presentation of food. Park, free ground for playing games, awesome gardening makes the environment calm and peaceful.
I stayed at The Mystic Forest (Jaldapara) on 4th and 5th December 2015. This resort is located inside a tea estate, about 5 km away from the Jeep safari point. I had excellent communications with the resort (ie Mrs. Sanchita Chatterjee) after booking. The manager of the hotel, Mr. Nilanjan Guha took great care of the guests after their arrival. The room was good for two persons. The geyser supplied hot water. The food was good and the portions were large. Electricity was not available after midnight on the first night. My torch came handy while I prepared for my morning safari. Overall, my stay at The Mystic Forest was a very pleasant one.
"Nice hotel with polite staff & fast service "
I went at Jaldapara with my family for 2 days and we are stay in The Mystic Forest, Jaldapara. This hotel situated in wonderful natural location and around by tea state. This hotel interior was well decorated by wooden furniture and well color. Room of this hotel was specious and clean with a big bed, and two chair. Food of this hotel was tasty but some type of food were available in here. Service of this hotel was very first. Staff and manager of this hotel was polite and helpful. From my experience it was a one of the best hotel for economical and comfortable stay.
"Front-desk and Staff is very prompt in service"
I went on a family trip and stayed for two days in this resort. It is in a Tea Garden area which is very calm. Front-desk and Staff is very prompt in service. Room service is super excellent, you will feel that your order comes in no time. The small garden and open restaurant in this hotel is the USP. If you have kids than this is the place.
"Rooms were neat but not up to the mark"
That was not a nice experience at mystic hotel, rooms were neat but not up to the mark, would suggest to improve their service and food was costly with low quality . The hotel was located far from the main city, appearance of the hotel was fine, We had done our booking in advance and did not have any problems at the front office. There weren't activities arranged in the hotel. Jaldapara was a fine place to visit.
"Experience is very very good"
Over all experience is very very good. The resort is in between tea gardens and moreover we watch rhino, peacock at the time of jeep safari.

So, 2013 turned out to be a humdinger for cars.
The new year promises to be pretty exciting, too. Here's just a few things that we're looking forward to with baited breath...
100 years of Maserati
2013 saw big celebrations for Aston Martin and Lamborghini among others, but in 2014 it's Maserati's turn.
The company has been hammering together formidable road and race cars since World War I, and have countless achingly gorgeous designs and impressive race wins on their CV.
As you might imagine, they're planning a party or two.
There'll be a huge gathering in Modena in September – why not pick up a cheap old Bora and tag along…? (Because it'll bankrupt you, that's why.)
Porsche Macan
The days of whining about Porsche SUVs are way behind us. The Cayenne exists – nay, thrives – and we've all accepted that.
So, the Macan is a thoroughly sensible idea: a scaled-down Cayenne for people who want a practical family car, but don't want to drive around in something that's as big as their living room. Also, the Macan Turbo will have 400bhp, which is loads.
Citroen Cactus
Back in 2007, Citroen showed us the peculiar C-Cactus. It looked like some kind of madman's notion of a motorised lozenge. In a good way.
Now, after various tweaks (well, a total change of pretty much everything), its spirit endures in 2014's forthcoming Cactus production model. Gape at the floating C-pillar! Gasp at the 'Airbump' protective inserts in the doors! Gawp at the lack of buttons on the dash!
Forget the cheap throwaway-ness of the old Xsara Picasso, this is the future of Gallic family transport.
Jaguar F-Type Coupe
The Jaguar F-Type was one of the most exciting cars of 2013. It looks beautiful, it sounds like the apocalypse, it goes like a train… wait, no, not a train – a very fast car, that's what it goes like. And next year, we get to jump up and down all over again when the coupe version arrives.
With the fixed roof comes underbonnet tweakery to release more horses, and that sloping tail really is very pretty indeed, isn't it? Nice one, Jaguar. It kind of is a new E-Type.
New New New MINI
You keep buying 'em, they'll keep churning 'em out. The Mini range now extends to Coupe, Clubman, Roadster, Convertible, Countryman and Paceman, all orbiting around the flagship hatch.
And said hatch has been revised (again) for 2014 – it's wider, more high-tech, and has a more sensible speedo, positioned where you're actually likely to look at it.
Excitingly, it's underpinned by BMW's new UKL1 front-wheel drive architecture, which we're also going to see underneath the first ever BMW-badged front-drive hatchbacks next year. So, if you're not a fan of the redesign, you can always opt for the fundamentally similar Beemer instead – although I think the New New New MINI looks pretty cool. What do you reckon?
Ford EcoSport
Mini-SUVs are seldom middle-of-the-road – they're usually either inspired or thoroughly depressing. Thankfully for Ford, the new EcoSport looks as if it'll be the former.
Based on the current Fiesta, it's been stretched in all directions to make it more family-friendly, although it still maintains the cosseting small car feel by carrying a lot of Fiesta bits over to the interior.
The styling is pretty bold – very, very American at the nose – and the tailgate-mounted spare wheel is already splitting opinion. I rather like it, it looks purposeful and utilitarian, which is what this car's about.
Best not to ask which 'sport' the name is referring to, though.
This is effectively the new M3 – BMW's naming strategy shake-up means that two-door models have even numbers and four or five-doors have odd ones.
In the past, the 3-series could be had as a saloon, coupe, convertible and estate. However, the two-door coupe version of the new 3-series is called the 4-series. Make sense?
OK, forget the semantics and look at the car. The M4 will be powered by a 3.0-litre twin-turbo straight-six, making a radical break from its predecessor – fans are coming to terms with the idea of turbocharged M-cars now, but the move back from the V8 of the old car to a six-pot like it used to have is key: it's about usable power, but also efficiency. (Turbocharging helps with this, of course.)
But you won't buy an M4 to be frugal. You'll buy it because it has 425bhp – more than the 414bhp of the outgoing V8, incidentally – and will run the 0-62mph sprint in 4.1 seconds. And it's stuffed full of race-derived tech. Oh, and if you're desperate for the M3 badge, they'll be selling the car as a four-door saloon as well…
Lamborghini Huracan
A new Lambo is always an exciting event, but it's a little sad to be waving farewell to the Gallardo. After all, it was the car that transformed the company, with Audi's quality control helping to harness Lamborghini's intrinsic mayhem to offer an accessible junior supercar.
They've sold over 14,000 of them since the model was launched in 2003, but the Gallardo has served its time now and will be replaced in 2014. The new model will almost certainly be named 'Huracan', despite widespread rumours that it would be called 'Cabrera'.
Like the Gallardo, it'll be powered by a V10, so as not to step on the bigger-brother Aventador's toes.
Further details will be released before the year is out, but two things we can say for certain: it will be eye-wateringly quick, and it will look utterly brutal.
(spy shots via MotorAuthority)
VW e-up!
No, you're not the first person to think "Ha ha, 'e-up!' sounds like a cheerful South Yorkshire greeting!". Sorry.
Comedy moniker aside, this is a significant little thing. Volkswagen's obtusely-punctuated city car has proved to be something of a hit already – it's solid and well-packaged, and not all that expensive for something so comparatively high-end – and the addition of usable electric power could be a real coup for VW.
Renault has been notably struggling with selling electric cars (residuals are terrible for a start, you can buy a used 2012 Renault Fluence for around £7,000 now – that's an £18,000 loss in a year!), but VW reckons its boffins have got the formula nailed with the E-up!
Taking a proven chassis, they've bolted in an 81bhp electric motor up front and an 18.7kWh lithium ion battery pack in the rear, which should be good for around 75-100 miles in summer (or 50-75 in winter) between charges.
Crucially, you can buy the car outright rather than leasing the battery as Renault buyers do, which makes the car rather more expensive initially but might make a lot more sense in the long run. Something to keep an eye on, anyway. It could be the car that drags all-electric city cars into the mainstream.
There will be many more new cars to enjoy in 2014, naturally. But as our selection here illustrates, it's going to be a heck of a year…

At the Santa Rosa Mental Health Institute, Charlie Hume just smiled at Liam's comment about needing a PI license to know the obvious.
Liam smiled back, "Look, it was clear this sleazy dude and his mysterious employer wasn't going to go away, until they had an answer from me."
"Answer to what?" Megan wondered.
"If any of your Uncle Charlie's solo recordings existed and where they where," Liam answered.
"I never knew that Uncle Charlie ever had recorded anything on his own!" Megan said.
"There were rumours early on, but no one knew for a fact, darlin," Liam answered, "only me and, God rest his soul, my brother. You see, Charlie once came to visit us in Australia. Meg, you were still a little girl."
"Yeah, I actually remember that," Megan said, as her eyes began to tear up, "it was his last visit, right? Just before he died!"
Liam nodded, "Yeah, he crashed on his way back to the states. He came to try to talk me into re-grouping the band. Said he knew some producers who were interested in us getting back together. But I told him no. I had a family. I mean, I know what would of eventually happened, if I had agreed."
Liam began to stare off into space again.
"What would have happened, sir," Charlie asked.
"Charlie was still riding the heroin horse, when he came to see me," Liam replied, "and if I had agreed to go back with him, to regroup the band, I would've been back on that horse too. Once an addict, always an addict. I just couldn't do that to Meg, or to her mom ever again!"
Megan wiped the tears from her eyes.
"So what IS the deal about your brother having some solo recordings?" Charlie asked.
"That was one of the things he confirmed to me during that last visit," Liam replied, "said he had about ten hours of songs he had recorded on his own. Said he wanted to get those producers to put up the money to sponsor a solo album, as a kind of backup plan, if I didn't agree to the reunion. But those producers wanted Drive Shaft! Guess the joke was on them. Well, as I said earlier, the joke was on all of us."
Liam cynically chuckled.
"So, let me try to understand," Charlie said, "this guy came to you, wanted to know if there were any Charlie Pace solo recordings and where they were being kept, right?"
"Hey, spot on again!" Liam replied, "gee, your detective boyfriend is just a genius, ain't he Meg!"
Megan blushed.
"Yeah, " Liam continued, "this dude's employer located me and wanted me to tell them that if they did exist then where the recordings were. When Charlie was eventually declared dead, all the rights to his property were legally transferred to me. This "mystery dude" wanted to have me sign over the rights for them to release and market those recordings if they existed. They promised me a share in the profits if I would sign. Which again, according to them, had the potential to make millions.
That's what's in the envelope. A copy of a contract for me to sign, giving them exclusive rights to all Drive Shaft properties, as well as anything my brother may have done on his own. Then I'm to call a number and tell them the contract is signed and ready for delivery and where my brother's recordings are. Once I've done all that, Char will be released."
"But you had told them to buzz off, before Char was kidnapped, right?" Charlie added.
"That's right, mate!" Liam replied, "I'm out of the music business. And if I ever do decide to get back in, I'm not going to do it on the back of my late brother and I'm sure as hell not going to give it all away to a bunch of corporate weasels!"
"And of course, they didn't take no for an answer!" Charlie said.
"That's right," Liam replied, "they hounded me. Threatened me. So to get away from them, I had myself committed. Gave orders that only family members could visit. No one else! The security at this institute is rather marvelous, you know! A lot of patients here have a lot of secrets that should stay secret, if you know what I mean!"
"You had yourself committed," Megan said, "because you were hiding out and not because you were crazy?!"
Liam subtly smiled, "Oh, I'm still crazy. I feared though, they might eventually try to get to me in other ways. Through you or Char, especially after she showed up as Charlie's long lost daughter. Its my fault I never told you girls any of this but I didn't want to frighten you. I was always scared they would try something someday. Guess the bastards finally did!"
"Why didn't you go to the police?" Charlie asked.
Liam laughed, "Police ain't gonna do anything for an over the hill has been like me! They would just think I'm a paranoid schizophrenic, as a result of ingesting all those drugs over the years. Besides, if this guy's employer is as powerful as I suspect, they wouldn't do anything anyway!"
"So you know where your brother's recordings are?" Charlie asked.
"Of course!" Liam defiantly answered, "but I'm not telling them!"
"But Char's life is in danger," Megan cried, "all of our lives!"
Liam sadly nodded, "I know!"
"Well, Mr. Pace," Charlie said, "I think you're making a mistake."
"What?" Liam replied, incredulously, "listen, these guys don't play by any rules. I hate to say this, but whatever happens, happens! Whatever I do, Char's a dead girl anyway! We all are dead! You think I should go ahead and sign anyway?!"
"Yes, Mr. Pace," Charlie replied, "that's exactly what I think you should do!"

Moffett Field CA (SPX) Aug 13, 2010
A mysterious bias in the way the building blocks of proteins twist could be due to supernovae, researchers now suggest. If correct, this could be evidence that the molecules of life weren't created on Earth, but came from elsewhere in the cosmos.
Organic molecules are often chiral, meaning they come in two versions that are mirror images of each other, much as right and left hands appear identical but possess reversed features.
Curiously, on Earth, the amino acids that form the proteins for life are virtually all "left-handed," even though it should be as easy to make one version as the other. Even more strangely, samples of certain amino acids obtained from the Murchison meteorite were mostly left-handed also, suggesting there could be a bias for left-handed amino acids throughout the rest of the cosmos.
Now researchers suggest that supernovae might be the culprits behind this mysterious effect. The key lies in the nitrogen atoms common to all amino acids, explained researcher Richard Boyd, a nuclear astrophysicist at Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory, and his colleagues.
As stars collapse right before they become supernovae, they generate an intense burst of electron antineutrinos that the researchers suggest would preferentially interact with nitrogen atoms in right-handed amino acids. All atoms possess "spin," and the handedness of an amino acid can influence how the spin of the nitrogen atoms within them align.
The antineutrinos, possessing a spin of their own, would prefer to interact with the way nitrogen atoms spin in right-handed amino acids rather than left-handed ones, since the spins of the antineutrinos and nitrogen atoms would align.
As a result, the antineutrinos would preferentially convert the nitrogen atoms in right-handed amino acids into carbon atoms. Boyd and his colleagues suggest this would result in the destruction of right-handed amino acids, leaving only the left-handed versions behind.
It might be possible to run experiments using intense neutrino sources, such as the Spallation Neutron Source at Oak Ridge National Laboratory, to test whether this effect actually occurs, Boyd added.
Supernovae also would generate electron neutrinos possessing opposite spin. This would have an effect on nitrogen atoms in left-handed amino acids, converting them into oxygen atoms. However, because this reaction requires more than four times more energy, it would occur to a much smaller degree than the antineutrinos'-right-handed amino acid reactions.
A Supernova Standard
A supernova only would destroy a very small portion of the right-handed amino acids in the neighboring molecular clouds. However, as the remaining left-handed molecules mixed throughout the galaxy, these molecules could be used in the formation of new amino acids. An initial imbalance of left-handed molecules as small as one part in 1 million or even less caused by supernovae could eventually lead to a dominance of left handed amino acids throughout space.
It is "the conspiracy of the very large, supernovae, with the very small, neutrinos, to impact something that exists on the human scale," Boyd said.
There remain a number of questions concerning this idea that Boyd and his colleagues are still investigating. For instance, after stars explode as supernovae, the remnants can form neutron stars. The powerful magnetic fields of these neutron stars could affect the molecular structures of the amino acids or their precursors, which in turn might have an impact on which handedness dominates.
If this idea proves true, the fact that virtually all the amino acids used by life on Earth are left-handed might suggest that the molecules of life were not created on this planet. Instead, they might have been born in our galaxy's molecular clouds and subsequently delivered via meteorites or included in the mixture that formed the Earth when the planets were created.
"I find it really mind-boggling that the same constraints that exist on our chemicals of life might also exist for every other entity in the universe," Boyd said. "If other entities are out there, the constraints on their chemistry appear to be sufficiently similar to ours that we may have lots of things in common with them."
Boyd and his colleagues Toshitaka Kajino and Takashi Onaka detailed their findings in the June issue of the journal Astrobiology.

While it may not be difficult to buy replacement parts for Pontiac vehicles, these days only the highest quality are required to fix your car or truck. The vehicle in your driveway is head and shoulders above the rest compared to all the other cars, trucks, and SUVs on the road today. It's not every day that you realize that you have to buy a replacement Sway Bar Link to repair your vehicle. Pontiac automobile drivers have become used to a certain level of dependability when driving their Star Chief around town.
Body roll is an undesirable result of cornering; something our suspension systems are always trying to correct. To ensure your suspension prevents excessive roll during cornering, Pontiac Star Chief sway bar links are attached to the stabilizer bar and the control arms. Without a stabilizer bar or sway bar links, the chassis would lose traction and understeer into each turn.

Updating your phone is as easy as pie with the right tools. Unlocking your phone is even easier with Updato's tool, which starts at $19.99 – give it a try and let us know how you like it!
It's been a while since Samsung released a new Galaxy S Duos update. These cool phones were originally released in 2012, which means Samsung's official support for them ended about a year and a half later, since their policy is to only support phones for a maximum of 18 months.
That's a pretty short lifespan for an expensive piece of tech. But you're in luck, because Updato.com maintains an exhaustive repository of the latest firmware and ROMs for most every phone imaginable. If you're in doubt on how to use them, just ask on our forum!
Perhaps you already know the importance of keeping your firmware up to date. Or maybe you're just coveting the thought of running the latest version of Android on your trusty Duos. Either way, if you're looking to update your Galaxy S Duos, you've come to the right place.
Updato.com has two methods available to perform your update:
1. Update via Samsung Kies
Samsung's official method for updating your Duos uses a little program called Kies.
Just install it on your computer, then use the program to search for the latest updates and install them.
Before you begin, be sure to check out our nifty tutorial on how to use Samsung Kies. Feel free to post any comments or questions below if you need a helping hand.
2. Update manually with Odin
If you're feeling adventurous, or are the brave geeky type, Odin allows you to update Galaxy S Duos to add custom ROMs, root or unroot your phone, or to reset your Duos back to the original ROM.
While this method is typically best suited to experienced users, we've done our best to simplify the process for everyone. Check out our awesome, easy-peasy tutorial on how to use Odin here.
How to get the latest firmware for your Samsung Galaxy S Duos update
An important part of rocking an updated Duos is making sure you have the latest firmware.
The first thing you should do is verify which version of Android you're currently using.
To do that, grab that trusty Duos and go to Settings > About Device and check the Build Number. It should look something like this: S7562LVJAMH1 (the current build number of your firmware).
Next, visit our Galaxy S Duos GT-S7562 OS Library to find the latest firmware releases for your country or region. If the build numbers on the list match the one you're using, then you've already got the latest firmware for your Duos and no update is required (look at you, all up-to-date and whatnot!).
If not, use Samsung Kies to install the latest Galaxy S Duos update (see Step 1 above).
Th-th-th-that's all folks! However, if you're using a different device or model phone, be sure to visit Updato's comprehensive OS Library to see if any additional updates are available.
Do you have questions about Samsung Kies, Odin, or the meaning of life? Post them in the comments below or on the Updato Forum. The Updato team will do our best to hit you back as soon as humanly possible.
Also, remember that our phone unlocking service is at your disposal whenever you want to truly set your phone free!
