Although the name Embraer is known throughout the world, Brazil's aviation industry consists of much more than the manufacture of regional airliners, a growing portfolio of business jets and military and agricultural aircraft.
For the first time at Farnborough, the Brazilian high technology aeronautics (HTA) consortium has taken a stand (Hall 4 Stand 14), occupied by manufactured goods and services companies from the aeronautics sector in Brazil.
While Embraer remains the undisputed leader in revenue, with growth of 20.79 percent in 2007, the HTA companies registered record revenue growth of 71.35 percent. The forecast for this year projects that the HTA companies will grow by more than 20 percent.
"We have competitive prices, Brazil is enjoying economic stability and policies and we are open for negotiations in regard to partnerships and joint ventures," said HTA president Urbano Cicero Fleury de Araújo. "In other words, we are offering excellent business opportunities."
The HTA companies have accumulated more than 15 years of experience and belong to a select group of companies in the world holding ISO 9000 and AS 9100 certification, the group said.
"We are traditional suppliers of parts and services for Embraer and are proud to be part of the success and quality of the aircraft of a company that is synonymous with success in global aviation," Fleury de Araújo added.
Created by former Embraer employees, the HTA companies started exporting their parts and services in 2006. Last year, the consortium exported $1.5 million worth of goods and closed a contract for foreign sales amounting to $30 million over the next 10 years. HTA lists Pratt & Whitney, Elbit and EADS/CASA among its clients, in addition to Embraer.
Located in the São José dos Campos region, near Embraer installations and with direct access to the main exporting ports, the seven companies that make up HTA employ 1,100 people, including more than 50 engineers specializing in the manufacturing, quality and logistics. Another six independent companies make up the rest of the team participating here with HTA.
Not only is the Brazilian aeronautics industry among the best in the world, according to HTA, the country is part of the BRIC nations, the group of countries that include Russia, India and China and is expected to become economic powers in the coming years.
Consortium Members
Among the consortium is Villares Metals, the largest producer of special steels for aircraft, satellite launching rockets and defense applications in the Southern Hemisphere. It is the only Brazilian plant approved to supply special steels to Embraer for the production of a variety of aircraft components, and to Embraer Liebherr Equipamentos do Brasil, mainly for the fabrication of landing gear components.
Alltec is a manufacturing company of composite parts mainly for aeronautical and space applications. It began operations in 1996 and now, with the second plant, has a total of 5,500 square meters of production facilities. The company's main production activities are: cleaning room prepreg layups, curing in autoclaves, forming thermoplastics, hotpressing, wet layup, finishing, painting and final assembly.
Esra primarily operates in the new product development sector and the fabrication of aeronautic helmets, engine cradles and landing gear. It also provides maintenance of ground support equipment, aerospace welding and the supply of specialty gloves, jackets and coveralls.
Another company, Avionics Services, offers engineering and production solutions. The company has supported clients in Brazil and countries such as Argentina, Uruguay, Chile, the U.S., Italy, the Czech Republic, Slovakia, Russia and Israel.
Finetornos operates in the aerospace, automobile and industries sectors, focusing on production and the development of geometrically complex parts, using a variety of materials such as aluminum, steel, titanium, non-ferrous alloys, thermoplastics, grey and modular cast iron and special alloys. In the aerospace sector, the company produces machined, productive, structural and mechanical parts. The parts appear practically throughout the aircraft, in areas such as elevators, doors, entrance ramps, floors, wings, flaps, fuselage and aircraft bodies, landing gear, stabilizers, seats, door components, avionics supports and coatings.
Inbra Aerospace is currently the largest factory in Brazil. It specializes in the production of compound material for airplanes and plates, outside of the Embraer complex. It produces armored cockpit doors for the Embraer 170 using proprietary technology. The plant also produces panels, consoles and special windows for observation aircraft, among other items.
Other companies displaying at the HTA stand are Ambra Solutions, Friuli, Graúna Aerospace, Lanmar, Pan-Metal Indústria Metalúrgica, ThyssenKrupp Automata and Toyo Matic.

The Virgin Media VM202 is a compact and rounded candybar phone with a comfortable keypad and a slide-out QWERTY keyboard
The home screen is fairly sophisticated for a basic phone, while texting and making a phone call are equally intuitive. Scrolling with the D-pad can be sluggish though
The 0.3-megapixel camera produces expectedly pixelated photos with faded colours, and there's a token video camera for those short minute-long clips
With a widget toolbar, slide-out QWERTY keyboard and customisable shortcut keys for favourite apps, the VM202 performs well for such a budget offering
The VM202 will last awhile between charges - but then again, it's not exactly up to much battery-sucking activity
Review by Sunetra Chakravati,12/12/2011 3:59:16 PM
Look and feel
Ease of use
Battery life
Widget toolbar, QWERTY keyboard, can customise shortcut keys for favourite apps, contacts and websites, 3.5mm audio jack
Keys are a little hard to depress, phone is slightly slow and texting can be sluggish
Basic phones just aren't basic any more, are they? The Virgin Media VM202 may look like an average candybar handset, but it's beefed up by home screen widgets, a slide-out QWERTY, and a 3.5mm audio jack.
Made by Alcatel, the VM202 could easily be one of those Sony Ericsson or Nokia candybars of yore – compact and rounded, with a comfortable keypad. Except, surprise! There's a slide-out QWERTY keyboard hiding behind the 2.2-inch display. The home screen is fairly sophisticated for a basic phone, with a widget toolbar that you can customise with widgets for calls, messages, emails, social networking, clock and more. The toolbar then shows the latest calls, messages or emails. The sides are button-free, with no dedicated camera key or even a volume rocker, but, surprisingly, there's a 3.5mm audio jack so you can plug in your own 'phones to listen to music. It only packs 2MB of memory but you can add up to 8GB of memory in the microSD slot.
As you might reasonably expect from a simple phone, the call function works well – and in fact, better than some other smartphones we can think of. Along with simply dialling the number directly, you can type the first few letters of a friend in the contacts book, and even add a favourite friend to a shortcut key. That's actually one of our favourite features - you can assign shortcuts to the 2-9 number keys so that they lead to a program, a contact and even a web link. Texting is equally intuitive – you can either type the first few letters of a friend's name in the To: field, or if it matches no-one, it'll automatically be entered as a number. Unfortunately, we found both the QWERTY and standard keyboards a little unresponsive, and it's hard to type quickly. It's a pity, because this could really have been the ideal texting phone. Even with predictive text on in the keypad, adding punctuation is a bit of a pain, with a certain amount of clicking back and forth between different menus required. Scrolling with the D-pad can also be sluggish, for example, when going through a list of contacts.
There's a social networking 'widget' – but it's really just a list of links to the mobile sites of Bebo, Friendster, hi5, MySpace and Flickr, not that you'd expect a full blown app on a phone at the price. No Twitter or Facebook, which is perhaps indicative of the younger age of the phone's target market. A nice addition is the preloaded Opera Mini browser, still the fastest and best for basic phones. With support for slower EDGE internet only, you won't want to load any picture-heavy sites, but it's fine for mobile-optimised sites and quick Google searches. The 0.3-megapixel camera produces expectedly pixelated photos with faded colours. You can MMS, email or Bluetooth them to friends though, or set as a contact picture or the home screen wallpaper. You're limited to snapping photos with the phone in landscape orientation (otherwise the pictures come out on their side), but you can rotate pictures when you enter the gallery. The same goes for video – yes, there's a video camera! It's fairly token and you won't be able to keep up with fast-moving scenes, but if there's ever some minute-long clip you need to capture, at least it's there. To round off your entertainment options, there's an FM radio, which ponied up decent sound quality through our Sony headphones. You can save favourite channels quite easily.
We welcome the introduction of widgets and a QWERTY keyboard to the VM202. Unlike a lot of low rent phones that try to take on high-end features, this one is executed well.

Pampers Cruisers Designer Diapers by Cynthia Rowley Boy has been designed by the world famous designer (and mom) Cynthia Rowley. It is a high performance diaper that has super-stretchy sides give babies freedom to move and play. The all-around softness helps keep babies comfortable.
Average Price: $12.99
I usually purchase Pampers Baby Dry but decided to try the Cruisers when they were on sale. I can't say they worked any better than the Baby Dry and were more expensive for significantly less diapers. Absorption was good and they kept my daughter dry. I just can't justify the price difference.

UPDATE, 4:15 p.m.: "Just want to thank Jim Caldwell, acknowledge all the outstanding things he's done for our franchise," said Irsay. "This was a difficult decision. I think that it was based on the feeling that this was a direction the franchise needed to go."
Irsay praised Caldwell for keeping the team fighting in 2011 despite it 0-13 start without Manning. However the owner said he's excited about bringing in a new coach with Grigson, though they declined to identify candidates.
Grigson stressed "strong leadership" as the main trait the Colts seek in Caldwell's successor. As for Manning's future, Grigson said "that's something's that not been discussed." He also revealed that he's talked to former Rams coach Steve Spagnuolo about the Colts' defensive coordinator job, in conjunction with Caldwell as it turns out.
"We're confident that we're gonna get this thing pointed in the right direction," said Grigson.
The end of the Jim Caldwell era was announced in a one-sentence release by the Colts on their website:
"The Indianapolis Colts have released Jim Caldwell of his duties as head coach of the Indianapolis Colts."
Owner Jim Irsay and new GM Ryan Grigson will conduct a press conference at 4 p.m. ET.
VIDEO: A look back at Caldwell's tenure
Caldwell was 28-24 in three seasons and led the Colts to Super Bowl XLIV, a game they lost to the Saints.
His dismissal is the latest turn in a tumultuous month that began with the firing of longtime vice chairman Bill Polian and his son, GM Chris Polian. Grigson was hired last week.
However it all seems like a prelude to the main question facing the franchise this offseason: Will four-time MVP QB Peyton Manning be retained as he continues to recover from multiple neck surgeries.
After a 2-14 season, the Colts wound up with the first pick of the 2012 draft. They are expected to select highly touted Stanford QB Andrew Luck.

Author | Puneet Bedi Bahri | Thursday, Oct 16,2008 9:44 AM
With poll dates for the forthcoming Assembly elections in five states – Rajasthan, Madhya Pradesh, Chhattisgarh, Delhi and Mizoram – being announced, poll activity has heightened. In a bid to being these elections even closer to the people various language newspapers have embarked on pre-electoral campaigns. exchange4media takes a look. Sharing their poll-related coverage were leading language players like Dainik Bhaskar, Rajasthan Patrika and NaiDunia. Comments from Jagran Prakashan were unavailable at the time of filing this report.
Dainik Bhaskar had run a pre-electoral campaign – 'You Decide' – in Rajasthan, Chhattisgarh and Madhya Pradesh. It was an attempt to give voice to the people, wherein response was invited from readers about what they wanted included in the public manifesto as well as the criteria they would consider for choosing their candidates and parties.
Sharavan Garg, Group Editor, Dainik Bhaskar, explanied, "The 'You Decide' campaign was an innovative step towards understanding the people's point of view about issues that really affect them or are relevant to them, and the factors that they evaluate their leaders on. We were overwhelmed with the response received and are proud to be the voice of our readers and their concerns."
Readers were asked to send in their response through an innovative pre-paid inland letter published in the daily's editions. The responses through this process highlighted seven issues that the reader considers as main issues for election in his state, three criteria while voting for a party and three criteria while voting for a candidate.
The campaign concluded in September in which over 50,000 responses were received. An in-depth analysis of the responses revealed diverse and interesting trends. Respondents from Chhattisgarh voted for education and employment as the most important issues in their manifesto, and demanded a party with a clean image and an honest candidate as their leader.
Sanjeev Kotnala, Vice-President, Dainik Bhaskar Corporation Ltd, said, "This unique process and the huge response to Bhaskar's innovative differential in news reporting, provided voice to the common man in allowing them to create a public manifesto much in advance of the political parties' manifestos. This is another example of how print media can share the responsibility entrusted by its readers. We were ready for a huge response, and the level of response speaks of the trust the readers have in the brand to rightly reflect and raise their voice."
Readers from Madhya Pradesh opted for things closer home – better roads, electricity and adequate water supply ruled their manifesto. On the selection of the candidate and the party, the readers opted for the development policy and national outlook of the party and an educated and honest candidate.
Rajasthan was a revelation. Readers from the state unanimously voted terrorism as the biggest problem on their manifestos and indicated education and a clean image as the key criteria in the selection of the candidate and party, respectively.
The detailed results of the survey were published in Dainik Bhaskar's editions on October 14 nationally.
Rajasthan Patrika is campaigning on issues such as bringing only people with a clean background for candidature. The paper is also stressing that an election manifesto should originate from the grassroot level and not just decided on by a few people.
Rajasthan Patrika's campaign started quite early, in March 2008 to be precise. The campaign, called 'Jaago Janmat', is meant to awaken voters to exercise their right to vote and elect the right candidates to strengthen democracy. The campaign has been divided into three phases – meeting with grassroot workers and supporters of various political parties; democratising the process of making election manifestos and follow up; and scrutiny of the performance or parties and candidates in the newspaper.
In the first phase, Rajasthan Patrika conducted meetings with major political parties in each of the 33 district headquarters in Rajasthan to ignite the process of grassroot populace, with workers suggesting the manifestos, and advocated that only renowned people with clean background should stand in the elections.
In Phase II, such drafts were worked out and subsequently published in the newspaper. The impact of this phase has been seen in the fact that the political parties, which had earlier used to decide on manifestos sitting at state headquarters, had to go to the district offices to discuss various issues concerning the people and only then deciding on the election manifestos.
In the third phase, Rajasthan Patrika is publishing the 'MLA report card' in the newspaper for people to analyse the level of fulfillment of promises made during previous elections.
Bhuvnesh Jain, Deputy Editor, Rajasthan Patrika, said, "Rajasthan Patrika has been working towards strengthening the democratic roots over the years and campaigning rigorously so that only deserving and result-oriented political parties and candidates are given the opportunity to work for the development of the state and the society. The paper has also been reminding people to do justice to their duties as citizens of India by exercising their right to vote in the interest of democracy."
NaiDunia, too, has its own campaign for the Assembly elections. A pre-poll survey is being conducted on NaiDunia's web portal, Webdunia.com, as part of the 'Survey prior to Elections 2008' drive.
Pankaj Jain, President and CEO, Webdunia, said that this survey aimed to reflect not only the interests of the voters this time, but also help in motivating the young voters to come out and vote. A detailed report for individual states would also be printed on the paper as well as made available on the website after the conclusion of the survey.
Jain further said, "An increased interest has been seen among people towards online surveys. The election survey is meant to collect the views of people on various issues, such as how they rate the present Prime Minister; are people satisfied with the system of the Government; are they satisfied with the MLAs of elected constituency; which political party do they consider to be the most popular in the state; etc."
Commenting on the trends shown during the survey, Jain said, "According to the pre-poll survey responses received till now – BJP is emerging as a strong party to win majority confidence vote of the people. Congress, on the other hand, remains the second choice for the voters. Madhya Pradesh, Rajasthan and Chhattisgarh currently have BJP in power, while Congress is the ruling party in Delhi."
Jain further said, "The survey results have shown that majority of people are looking for single party rule at the Centre rather than a coalition party. These trend results are at the primary stage, and might change as the elections draw near."

But nothing beats sailing through the river in the evening or a romantic stroll along the riverbank—the Cairo International Airport is 23 km from the hotel.

Lila Downs
Una Sangre
If you didn't make the Lila Downs concert a few weeks ago, you missed seeing a woman alone on stage bring an audience to tears with her voice. Lila Downs grew up in the Sierra Madre, a mountain range in Southern Mexico, but attended the University of Minnesota, where she studied anthropology and nursed ambitions of being an opera singer—a leaning you can still hear in her style. She became disillusioned with the music program, however, and left to follow the Grateful Dead before returning to Oaxaca to learn traditional weaving.
Cool. Now she tours and sings to a rapidly growing fan base between other projects, such as singing screentime in the recent movie Frida. Downs sings her own compositions as well as drawing on the rich history of native Mesoamerican myth, story and song. Her latest album, Una Sangre, is a great collection, impressively rendered with the help of her band, which includes acoustic bass player Junior Terry from New York, Yayo Serka on percussion (including a super-cool box drum called a cajon), and her American husband Paul Cohen on saxophone. (Colin Ruggiero)
The Radio Tisda Sessions
You might not have made it down to the Festival in the Desert—two days' camel ride into the middle of Mali—this year, either. But you can still catch some of the desert grooves on Tinariwen's new album, The Radio Tisda Sessions. The band was formed when the Tuareg (more properly, the Kel Tamashek) people were forced from their nomadic life in the Sahara by the Malian government. Band members met in an exile camp and began adapting traditional music, usually played by 30 or more musicians, to their exile lifestyle. They adapted lute and violin melodies to guitar and infused the results with hints of rock and rebellion. Theirs was a music of social and political protest, and, lacking mass communications systems, their music became the voice of other movements striving for independence from a repressive Malian government.
The tunes on Radio Tisda Sessions are primarily guitar and vocal arrangements, lean and gritty, with an ethereal drone quality to them. Think Ali Farka Toure. Although Tinariwen have been playing together for over 20 years, their cassettes have been banned until recently, and this is their first recording for a major label. Word is, they've been seen riding into battle with Stratocasters slung across their backs. That imagery alone is a good enough reason to buy this album. (Colin Ruggiero)
Beastie Boys
To The 5 Boroughs
It's kind of weird to realize, on the eve of the new Beastie Boys release, that they've been at it for 20 years. Not to trip down memory lane, here, but it's noteworthy that they've not only survived as white rappers longer than anyone expected, but that their music continues to be—all the more so with this truly kickin' new disc—purely state of the art.
The approach this time around is minimalist, uncluttered and quick to the point (nearly all songs clock in at two to three minutes), bridging the simple grooves of the late-'70s/early '80s to groups like cLOUDDEAD. Tasteful samples of conversations, religious records, true old-school rap (LL Cool J, Sugarhill Gang), The Dead Boys and even The Flaming Lips mix with smartass rhymes and left-field references that you can't help giggling to.
But the Beasties are also none too happy with the state of politics, and they sound off righteously on "It Takes Time To Build" and "We Got The." They also deliver what is possibly the best tribute to their hometown, post 9/11, with "An Open Letter To NYC."
The Beasties are still growing up. Their methods are still super dope, and this is easily their best since Paul's Boutique. (Bryan Ramirez)
Les Sans-Culottes
Fixation Orale
Aeronaut Records
France has always been pretty isolationist in its pop outlook. Inlook is more like it. They've never really seemed to have the band thing down, and even the few French bands that could accurately be described as "big" anywhere outside France can be a little perplexing. Air? What's their deal? Has no one in France bought a new record since 1978?
But Great Ghost of Charlemagne, if Les Sans Culottes isn't the most adorable band since Shonen Knife, I'll eat a shoe with cheese on it and have the waiter massage my grandmother. Dirt-simple breakneck pop with glacially cool female vocals backing a hepcat who sounds like he wears Converse All-Stars with his kerchief and Breton fisherman's sweater. The women wear mini-skirts and in real life probably look like they just stepped off the improvised set of Breathless or Vivre sa Vie.
They sing in French and English in the same song, and the less you speak of one, the more enjoyable it probably is. They also sing a song in Esperanto.
They have names like Mars Chevrolet and Kit Kat Le Noir. They wonder, lyrically, what the English is for "je ne sais quoi" in "Allô Allô," hands down the catchiest slice of francophone Dada yeh-yeh since the Plastic Bertrand's "Ça Plane Pour Moi." They call each other "my little cabbage." Sixty times in a row listening to it just isn't enough. (Andy Smetanka)

Born John Roberts, much of his early life is unknown. However, he would later become the most successful pirate of the Golden Age, capturing over 170 vessels in his career. It is unknown why he changed his name to Bartholomew, but it's possible it was an homage to the privateer Bartholomew Sharp.
Although history remembers Roberts as "Black Bart," he never used that name during his lifetime.

Q:I want to know why the right wiper arm "42541" on a 2002 Chevy Venture is 62 dollars and the left wiper arm "42542" is 19 dollars. It makes no sense seeing the left wiper arm seemingly would be more elaborate to manufacture.
1 answer
A:Good question Rob! The part number 42542 is a rear wiper arm and not to the front left (driver) side. The front wiper arm is more in length (32.875 inches) than the rear wiper arm (12.55 inches) and also it comes with a spray nozzle. I think these differences would have made the front wiper arm pricier than the rear one.
Q:I want to know why the front right wiper arm is 40. dollars more than the front left.
1 answer
A:Hi Rob, to further assist, please provide us the part number for the front left windshield wiper arm and also year, make, model and engine size of your vehicle.
Q:I am wanting to order a window wiper arm but in description its not specific on driverside or passenger only left or right. this is a problem cause if im in the car the left is driverside but if im outside the left is passenger side.
1 answer
A:Hi Juan, glad to help you! This part is for front right (passenger side) position. However, to check the exact fit application for the part number 42541, please provide us the year, make, model and engine size of your vehicle.
Q:how do i remove the wiper arm from the van. i took the lock nut on the top off, but the arm will not come off. in older vehicles you had to put wiper arm in the air and lock it in place, then just take it off the shaft, but this seems different. thanks
1 answer
A:I would suggest taking you vehicle to a local Advance Auto Parts location where they may be able to assist you in this considering we replace windshield wipers. Another option I would recommend purchasing a Haynes repair manual specifically for your vehicle. This should be able to assist you further into detail on how to repair or replace specific parts.

Marvel's curveball space adventure is finally with us, and as is the way of these things, people are already talking about the next one. Few details have yet been revealed about James Gunn's developing sequel, but here are a few thoughts on possible future movie affiliates for Starlord, Gamora, Drax, Rocket and Groot.
The Guardians just unleashed in cinemas were based on characters from Marvel's 2008 reboot by Dan Abnett and Andy Lanning, but the franchise itself dates back to a whole other team from 1969. Created by Arnold Drake and legendary Marvel artist Gene Colan, the original issues gave us psychokinetic mutant astronaut Vance "Major Victory" Astro; the silicon-bodied Plutonian Martinex T'Naga; and the hulking Charlie-27 from the planet Jupiter. Later on they picked up the heat-immune Nikki Gold from Mercury; and the Arcturan godling Stakar of the House of Ogord, otherwise known as Starhawk. One further original member, Yondu Udonta, appears in the movie played by Michael Rooker. So maybe there's scope for introducing or flashing back to further predecessors in future instalments, particularly given the timey-wimey shenanigans of the comics.
Warlock actually predates the original Guardians by a couple of years, dreamed up by Stan Lee and Jack Kirby in 1967 for a Fantastic Four outing (which may make things difficult for Marvel Studios, as Fox owns the right to Mr. Fantastic and company). Roy Thomas and Gil Kane then took him over and ran with him, repurposing the artificial, scientist-created "perfect human" as a sort of cosmic messiah. He has his own Soul Gem, which allows him to trap the souls of others, and he's a regular annoyance to a certain Thanos, who once wounded Warlock so gravely that he had to live in his own gem for decades to recuperate. Hate when that happens. He teamed up with the modern Guardians for the Annihilation: Conquest saga, where he reinvented himself as The Magus, wielder of "quantum magic". After a complex series of resurrections and allegiance shifts he ended up in a cocoon, much like the one The Collector has at the end of Thor: The Dark World…
Created by Steve Englehart and Don Heck for The Avengers during the '70s, Mantis is a half Vietnamese and half German martial artist, raised by a sect of the alien Kree (they of the Kree-Skrull War) and eventually turning out to be The Celestial Madonna, in which form she became a massive pop star and married Guy Ritchie. No, wait, that's not right. Like Adam Warlock, she hooks up with the modern Guardians during Annihilation: Conquest, where she's rescued from a Kree prison by Peter Quill and becomes the Guardians' counsellor, like a cosmic Deanna Troi. She's also involved in the events of the Age Of Ultron comics storyline, making her a strong potential for cross-Marvel movie appearances.
The first Quasar was Wendell Vaughn, originally introduced in 1978 as Marvel Boy, with the power to fly, create solid objects from light, manipulate energy and teleport. By 2004 though, the mantle had been taken over by Phyla-Vell, the artificially created offspring of Captain Mar-Vell, and brother of the occasionally insane Genis-Vell. She teamed up with Peter Quill and Nova against the alien overlord Annihilus and his cosmic rod, and later goes questing with Drax. She makes some critical errors in the fight against Thanos and also comes off badly against Adam Warlock in his Magus guise.
Eugene Thompson started life as a Spider-Man villain: or rather, he's one of the high-school jocks that bullies Peter Parker (the "Flash" nickname would seem to be in homage to Harry Flashman from Tom Brown's Schooldays, who went on to his own series of infamies in George MacDonald Frasier's humorous historical Flashman novels). After school he joined the military, fought in 'Nam, became a depressive and an alcoholic and went to work for Norman Osborne. Among many other misadventures, he became Agent Venom, dealing with the same symbiote as Eddie Brock, but rather differently. He's possibly a more likely inclusion in Sony's Spider-Man series then, but in the comics he does gain a connection with both The Guardians and The Avengers, pegged by the latter as an envoy for the former. So he could potentially constitute an earth-bound link between the two movie franchises.
Angela started out as Neil Gaiman's contribution to Todd McFarlane's Spawn comics: a bounty-hunting angel working for Heaven as a thorn in Spawn's hellbound side. She remained on the Image Comics roster until some acrimony over rights ownership that saw Gaiman regain control of her. Soon after, he sold her to Marvel, where, after some retconning, she eventually became Thor's sister. She shows up towards the end of Age Of Ultron as the result of some damage to the universe, and starts out attacking Earth, only to be intercepted by The Guardians. She became a full Guardian last year, alongside Flash Thompson.
James Gunn revealed recently that Bug was in a previous draft of the Guardians movie, so it's not beyond the realms of the fantastical that he'd show up in future. Originally one of the Micronauts, he's an insectoid alien master thief with heightened sensory awareness and exceptional sight and agility. Being a bug, he can also wall-crawl. He was drafted into The Guardians by Rocket Racoon during the Shi'ar-Kree war (those Kree are always at war with someone), and has been a sporadic member ever since, right up to the current series by Brian Michael Bendis and Steven McNiven.
Cosmo is essentially a happier answer to the question "What happened to Laika?" A test dog for the Soviet Space Programme in the '60s, he was fired off into orbit, but drifted and mutated, eventually landing himself a job as Chief of Security on the Knowhere space station, like a sort of blue collar V-Ger. He first encountered Nova, before joining the Guardians in a temporary détente with Thanos to combine forces against crazy Lord Mar-Vell. He eventually started his own Guardians offshoot with The Silver Surfer (who we haven't included in this list because he's still at Fox with the Fantastic Four), alien Thor-horse Beta Ray Bill, and others. He's a powerful telepath and telekinetic, with a nifty sideline in psionic blasts. We've actually met him already - keep your eyes open through the movie and stay for the end credits - so time will tell if his role gets expanded. Yes, he's a dog, but we've already got a talking racoon. Outlandishness is relative.
Heather Douglas' identity is closely tied up with Drax The Destroyer (Dave Bautista in the film), since Drax is her dead father, his soul transferred into a new body by Thanos' father Mentor and the Titan God Kronos. Heather herself was adopted by Mentor and raised on Titan, after the Thanos-based accident that apparently killed both her parents. Taken in hand by the space monks of Shao-Lom, she grows up to be an intimidating amazon with a shaved head: a martial arts expert, telekinetic, master geneticist and sexual gymnast. Daredevil, Thor, Phyla-Vell and perky redhead detective Marlo Chandler have been among her bisexual romantic dalliances. Initially hanging out with Cosmo and Phyla on the Knowhere station, she's since become a Guardians field agent.
"I know a lot of where I want to go," said James Gunn at Comic-Con last week. "I have a lot of ideas for stories and characters that are going to appear, and there are documents written up, that some people have, about Peter Quill's father…" So it seems we can expect to be introduced to J'Son Of Spartax at some point in the not too distant future. Not one of the Guardians himself, J'son was the Emperor of the Spartol Empire, who crash-landed on Earth on his way to battle the Ariguans. While he was there, he fell in love with Meredith Quill, but wiped her memory of him when he set off back to space. Men, eh? After his departure she gave birth to Peter, the future Star-Lord, who would eventually grow up to meet his father and be offered the Emperorship himself. Is some version of this story on the cards? We'll find out on July 28, 2017.

Legal battle fails to keep SHKP's Kwok brothers away from the office
Despite bribery charges, developer's core profits edge to a record with co-chairmen's investment and sales strategy still in place
Related topics
The co-chairmen of Sun Hung Kai Properties, who have been charged with bribery-related offences, hint that they have no plans to step down temporarily despite being involved in a legal battle that could last for years.
The billionaire brothers, Thomas Kwok Ping-kwong and Raymond Kwok Ping-luen, reiterated that the company's investment and flat-selling strategy would remain unchanged.
"It is no secret that I come to the office every day, even on Saturday," Raymond Kwok said. "I work harder than before. It may be because I am invited less often for business entertainment."
In July, the pair and former chief secretary Rafael Hui Si-yan were charged by the Independent Commission Against Corruption with various counts, including conspiracy to offer advantages to a public servant and conspiracy to commit misconduct in a public office.
They were released on bail, and a court hearing will take place on October 12.
The Kwoks' remarks came after the developer reported core earnings edged up 0.93 per cent to HK$21.68 billion for the year to June, beating market forecasts of between HK$20.56 billion and HK$21 billion.
Analysts said the increase was small because it followed last year's record underlying profit of HK$21.47 billion.
Taking into account revaluation gains on investment properties, net profit fell 18.22 per cent to HK$22.07 billion. Revenue rose 9.35 per cent to HK$68.4 billion. A final dividend of HK$2.40 per share was declared.
Asked when the third generation of Kwoks will take a bigger role in SHKP's management, Thomas Kwok said he had "full confidence in the senior management, most of whom have worked for us since the time of my late father".
Adam Kwok Kai-fai, 29, the son of Thomas Kwok, and Edward Kwok Ho-lai, 31, the son of Raymond Kwok, have not appeared in public since they were appointed as alternate directors to their fathers in July as part of contingency plans for a worst-case scenario.
Thomas Kwok said he remained upbeat on the Hong Kong property market over the next 10 years. He said SHKP would speed up construction to support the government's call to increase housing supply.
The developer aims to sell HK$35 billion worth of properties in this financial year.
Thomas Kwok said he supported the new government's moves to increase the supply of subsidised and public rental housing. But he expressed reservations about cooling measures such as further cutting the mortgage loan-to-value ratio, saying it would suppress demand only in the short term and failed to address the root problem of supply.
Deputy managing director Victor Lui Ting said SHKP had generated about HK$4 billion from the sale of Kowloon Commerce Centre in Kowloon East.
SHKP shares rose 0.75 per cent to HK$107.10 on speculation the developer would recommend a special dividend to mark the 40th anniversary of its listing in Hong Kong, but none was proposed. "We have to reserve cash for future expansion," executive director and chief financial officer Patrick Chan said.

There are many different ways to categorize the subway's 468 stations: the oldest, the busiest, the deepest, the darkest, the hottest, the most fragrant.
The other day a group of extraordinarily knowledgeable subway buffs were debating a more subjective and much less desirable distinction: the ugliest.
High on their list was the Wilson Avenue station on the L line, which offers a lovely view of a cemetery through razor wire. Also in contention were 205th Street in the Bronx, where much of the concrete looks like old goat cheese, and the Bowery station, a fittingly corroded shrine to dereliction.
But eventually they came to settle on the Chambers Street station beneath the Municipal Building as the clear winner in their 2003 subway station ugly contest. Among comments from the judges was that the station was ''pretty nasty!!!''Another, exhibiting more emotion than attention to grammar, wrote: ''OH GOD, it disgusting and it fulls of YUCKS.''
A third wrote that there was a good reason the station was used as a setting for the 1984 horror film ''C.H.U.D.'' about a collection of man-eating monsters who lived beneath New York. (In the movie, the letters seemed to stand for ''cannibalistic humanoid underground dwellers''; Chambers Street was not featured in the 1989 sequel, ''C.H.U.D. II: Bud the Chud.'')Continue reading the main story
The buffs who awarded the Chambers Street station its dubious crown are in a good position to know. Congregating virtually around nycsubway.org, a Web site, they have photographed and documented the subway over the last few years with more zeal than scientists studying rare species. They can talk with equal authority about everything from motormen's radio codes to the Malbone Street wreck of 1918 (97 killed in Brooklyn). Their Web site even offers a translation of a French guide to subway signals, the elusive and revered ''Les signaux du New York City Subway.''
But this column still wanted to see for itself whether the station deserved the distinction, and so a recent morning was spent inspecting. The first realization that strikes the visitor upon entering the station is how comfortably roomy it is. The second realization is why: it is almost as big as an airplane hangar and, for most of the day, almost completely deserted. One subway buff, Peter Farrell, compares it aptly to ''a bombed-out European cathedral'' after World War II.
When it was being built before World War I, Chambers Street was envisioned as a City Hall terminal, a kind of downtown Grand Central at a time when the business and population center of the city was still closer to the southern end of the island. Three years after it opened, its four wide platforms were so overcrowded that one newspaper article described them as ''more dangerous during the rush hours than at the Grand Central or the Fourteenth Street Stations.''
But by the mid-1920's, the subway itself was pushing the city's population north and leaving Chambers Street behind. By as early as the 1930's, in fact, the station's ridership had dropped off so steeply that half of it was closed.
Walking around the station now, it seems as if half of the station has not been cleaned or repaired since the 1930's, either. Platforms are piled deep with the detritus of the years -- an old push broom, a broken umbrella, a toaster and several foothills of soda bottles, all of which could be precisely dated according to the depth of the dark-brown steel dust coating them. In one part of the platform, an original Heins and LaFarge terra cotta plaque of the Brooklyn Bridge seems to have been crowbarred off the wall. In another, the yellowish-white water damage is so extensive it appears that a crew of C.H.U.D.'s tried to eat its way to daylight.
One regular user of the station, George Moore, an accountant, pointed with disgust to a place where he said he had seen a pile of feces on the platform the day before. He seemed almost dejected that the evidence was missing. ''Well, I guess somebody cleaned it up,'' he said.
But another rider, Jacqueline Chapman, said she had never seen a cleaner at work in the station. ''Just the rats picking up stuff, '' she said, smiling sadly.
This quickly turned out to be no exaggeration -- and, in the end, the most convincing argument that Chambers Street is indeed the ugliest station.
At the south end of the uptown platform a field of rotting debris stretched for several feet, studded with several full plastic trash bags. As a reporter and photographer watched, one of the black trash bags began to undulate and, over the course of several minutes, as many as a half-dozen rats scurried away from a hole in the top.
A bleary-eyed man standing nearby shrugged, and then leaned over the platform to make friendly, squeaky sounds to the rats below.
''Just rats,'' he said. ''You raise the fare to $10, you can't get rid of rats.''Continue reading the main story

As a Friend of Scouting we share a common interest in helping children and young people thrive and make positive life choices. Helping them learn the value of their own worth, whilst inculcating sound morals, is the greatest gift we can share.
Friends of Scouting
For decades the South African Scouting programmes have shaped the lives and unleashed the potential of thousands of boys and girls and young men and women. Today, with over 300 000 members, Scouting still sets the bar when it comes to contemporary value based youth programmes. Skills such as outdoor survival, first aid, citizenship, leadership as well as team work set members up for success.
One of our Scout Laws speaks of managing all resources thrifty. Therefore donations and bequests made to SCOUTS South Africa are kept in an endowment fund managed by the independent SCOUT Foundation. To continue to enrich the lives of our volunteers, youth and children we need a little help from our Friends. Your gift – both small and big – is meaningful and will helps us to sustain Scouting throughout South Africa.
The "Friends of Scouting" (FOS) Recognition Programme serves to thank corporate and legal individuals that contribute towards the Scout Foundations (SF) Endowment Fund. The funds serve as a tool to enhance the financial sustainability of SCOUTS South Africa, its sole beneficiary.
What is the SF Endowment Fund?
The endowment fund is made up of monies donated or bequeathed, which are invested to generate income. 75% of the interest in dispersed annually to SCOUTS South Africa and 25% of the interest is reinvested into the capital of the endowment fund.
The fund is one of many income sources for the NGO and aids in diversifying SSA's funding base as it reduces reliance on other sources of funding alone. In our current economic climate the endowment fund secures the sustainability of Scouting in South Africa.
How does "Friends of Scouting" work?
The Friends of Scouting Recognition Programme serves to thank corporate and legal individuals that contribute towards the SCOUT Foundations Endowment Fund. Depending on your donation, you will receive a FOS, bronze, silver, gold or platinum recognition status, which over time can evolve.
As a Friend of Scouting you can help and contribute towards the endowment fund by making a private contribution or you could donate through your company:
Private donations:
As individuals we can all ensure the legacy of Scouting by making a donation.
- Once-off: Make a once off donation.
- Annual Donations: You could support Scouting annually. Donations are cumulative, so as your total donation grows, so does your FOS recognition status.
- Monthly Donations: Every donation counts! Contribute monthly through a direct debit towards FOS and watch your status grow!
- Double your impact Organize a fundraising event for the endowment fund with your friends and family! Who knows you might even find a company to match your FOS Contribution?
Corporate donations:
Service to others is a core principle of Scouting. It is also the cornerstone of many CSI programmes. Invest in Scouting and its members by adding us as CSI partners!
- Once-off: Donate once by adding us as a CSI beneficiary for the year.
- Annual donations: Include the SCOUT Foundation as a CSI partner and prepare people for success in life. Donations are cumulatative, so as your total donation grows, so does your FOS status within the recognition programme.
- Monthly Donations: Rather contribute your CSI budget monthly? That works for us! Contribute through a direct debit towards FOS and watch your status grow!
- Double your impact Organize a fundraising event for SSA's endowment fund as a staff function within your company. Give your team the chance to empower others!
Note: The SCOUT Foundation is a Trust, no Section 18A can be issued.
Through a bequest:
By bequeathing a donation to the SCOUT Foundation in your last will and testament you are not only giving money to support the sustainability of a non-profit organisation, you are in fact ensuring that a Scouting legacy lives on.
- Bequest by adding this Codicil to your Will. As the SCOUT Foundation is a registered PBO, there will be no inheritance tax due on the amount of the donation.
Donate in Memoriam:
Has your loved one left the request to support Scouting in South Africa? Did Scouting bring a lifetime of adventure and joy to your loved-one? Want to give back? Make a once off donation to the SCOUT Foundation Endowment Fund and ensure the legacy lives on!

Can't see the garden, but I used some cute paper I got from the dollar tree along with the lattice fence paper at the bottom. The dragonfly stickers I got from scrapbook.com superstore. Sorry the pic I took of the LO is kinda crummy.... but you get the idea!

text: SGS selects Spirent to expand testing capabilities for LTE networks16 Apr 2015 11:07 AM Spirent enables test lab to offer its customers enhanced LTE voice, video and carrier aggregation testing capabilitiesSpirent Communications has announced that SGS, a leading accredited laboratory for wireless testing and certification, has enhanced the testing capabilities it offers its customers by using the Spirent 8100 LTE solution with support for hVoLTE, voice over IP (VoIP), video telephony, and carrier aggregation.These critical test areas assess the audio, video, signalling, and data throughput performance of mobile devices to ensure they meet the complex carrier requirements of next-generation LTE networks. Guaranteeing a superior Quality of Experience (QoE) is a critical factor in delivering services that compete with the increasingly popular over-the-top voice and video services. As VoLTE rollouts continue, operators are working to provide a seamless interaction between the new LTE networks and existing circuit-switched networks. hVoLTE, or hybrid VoLTE, is a mode of operation that allows the two technologies to coexist.Testing this coexistence on devices is critical in order to avoid VoLTE call drops during mobility scenarios. Spirent's 8100 LTE solution addresses the heightened complexities in testing mobile device performance to ensure seamless interoperability across all these new technologies. "SGS is focused on supporting major operators as they expand their networks to include these critical new technologies," said Michael Spitzer, global wireless manager at SGS. "Continuing our partnership with Spirent allows us to grow our portfolio for LTE device testing and be at the forefront of these next generation capabilities." "Partnering with leading authorised test labs is critical to Spirent's success," said Saul Einbinder, vice president of marketing for wireless at Spirent Communications. "We are pleased to remain an integral part of the SGS solution for assessing device performance on VoLTE networks and bolstering their portfolio of testing services."

I realize this question may vary due to location and product pricing, but how do you determine a fair price for pest control? I have a request to provide preventive pest control (mainly for roaches) in an apartment building. There are 56 apartments total with 1, 2, & 3 bedroom units. At this point there are no pest infestations. I've heard other companies are charging from $2 per apt up to $35 per apt.
A few things strike me as worth discussing here, and the first would be that reported $2 per unit price that some competitors may be charging at this time. Let's consider that the service industry in the U.S., in general, considers $100 per hour to be a standard charge for their time and services. This is going to vary up and down a bit, but let's use that price for convenience, meaning that the company charging that price has determined that it is necessary for their field technicians to make $100 per hour in order to keep their company running and to make a profit. This determination is not easy, but it must take into account ALL of your fixed costs (vehicles, insurance, rent, salaries, material costs, etc.) You have to find out exactly how much your company has in expenses so that you will know how much above those expenses will be needed to be profitable, and if you do not make a profit you cannot stay in business.

She's only been in Porn Valley a few weeks, and she might only have a handful of scenes to her credit, but DAMN Taylor Whyte did a great job today banging Mr. POV. A little about Taylor: she's a Florida girl (hailing from Tampa) and like most Florida girls, she's as naughty as they come. But she hasn't always been naughty. This is behavior she's picked up in the last year or two; in fact, before hitting Porn Valley, she'd only been with "10 guys, give or take". Let's watch this pretty, girl-next-door turn into a Super Slut…starting here!

Real Estate Law

I'm afraid you misunderstood my intentions. I was merely wondering if there would be an advantage to delaying the appraisal until I could repair the ceiling and clean up the mess--NOT to try and influence the appraisal in any other way. Your last sentence, however, gave me the info I needed: "However, you would like the appraisal to come in as high as possible given your situation." So it seems it will be to my benefit to postpone the appraisal (the bank chose the appraiser and he has appraised this property at least twice before, being the only 'commercial' appraiser in our remote county) until I can make the place look better and fix the ceiling. Thanks again.

Na costa sul da costa em Devonshire, temos o prazer de oferecer The Cottage que acomoda dois únicos hóspedes. Com uma piscina para descansar em um belo jardim que serpenteia até o mar e da costa, a casa tem tudo que um visitante para Bermuda poderia pedir. Localizado entre Hungry Bay e Devonshire Bay, a propriedade fica a apenas 10 minutos para Hamilton por ciclomotor, eo serviço de ônibus regular estimamos não mais do que 15 minutos.
As comodidades incluem casa de campo: sala de estar com TV (com cabo), e uma cozinha adequada com frigorífico (congelador na parte superior) e fogão com forno. Há uma churrasqueira a carvão disponível também e um forno de microondas, cafeteira, ferro e tábua, rádio, máquina de fita etc. O quarto é separado, com duas camas de solteiro que montar em uma cama king size, mediante solicitação. A sala de estar é uma sala separada. Há instalações de jantar e uma área confortável para relaxar também.
My young daughter and I were fortunate enough to stay at this cottage for 12 nights in May this year (2010) and had the most wonderful holiday. I had married her dad on Horseshoe Bay in 1998 so I was already familiar with the island and aware of how beautiful it is. I got such great pleasure from showing her the island and doing the many activities available (helmet diving, parasailing, jet-skiing, snorkelling, glass bottom boat etc).
The cottage was perfect for our needs - private, peaceful with Terri and Mike being the most helpful, friendly and welcoming hosts. It has a cosy living room with a very comfortable separate bedroom, a fab shower and adequate kitchen with lots of equipment.
Having the pool right outside the cottage door was great to jump into to cool down after a day out. There was also the private beach area a few minutes walk away which we didn't make enough use of due to the onset of jelly-fish around the island which worried my daughter!
We bought transportation passes as the bus stop was only 5 minutes away and this would take you into Hamilton in about 12minutes and you can also use them on the ferries. The ONLY complaint we had was that the cottage was on a bus route that stopped quite early (around 6pm) so if we were out any later we had to catch a cab from Hamilton or walk home from the No.7 bus stop (no street lighting or sidewalks). If you intend to hire scooters then this would not be an issue and would be a truly great choice of accomodation for you.
In my opinion, Bermuda is 'a little piece of paradise' which you REALLY must experience. My dream is to retire there - well, everyone needs a dream!
Beautiful spot. Conveniently located to market,bus and ferry. A medium walk to the beach.Welcoming and helpful owner. Studio is bottom floor of main house so comfortable knowing someone was there to help if one needed help.Nice place if you want a family vacation and need several houses, they have three.
Would definately revisit!
