South Buenos Aires Bike Tour
Going to the south, we will show you the history of the beginnings of Buenos Aires as a city. Its traditional houses, streets and locals will offer you the real essence of the original barrios. Be part of our main passions: tango and football. Discover a beautiful green area: The Ecological Reserve along the South Coast. We visit the neighborhoods of San Telmo, La Boca, Puerto Madero and Monserrat. Along the tour we will have 7 stops, to see the most attractive parts and learn about the history and thematic of each point.
After picking up the bikes in the neighborhood of San Telmo a 16km bike ride is waiting for us. First we explore the San Telmo neighborhood visiting Dorrego Square located in the heart of San Telmo. From there we head to Parque Lezama with its nice barranca along the parks eastern half, learn about Lezamas family and also Pedro de Mendoza.
Our next stop will be the famous "La Bombonera", the stadium of one of Argentina's most famous football teams, Boca Juniors. Continuing our way we get to "Caminito", the famous and colorful street museum and traditional alley located in La Boca. After a 15 minutes break, which you can use to buy some souvenirs or just stroll around and breathe the Tango atmosphere, we are parting to the neighborhood of Puerto Madero, the newest and most modern area of Buenos Aires with the amazing skyline. We will bike through the Ecological Park and enjoy the beautiful and unique nature. The Park is famous for its variety of birds, attraction for many bird watchers.
Leaving the Park we will head to the main square of Buenos Aires "Plaza de Mayo" with the government house "Casa Rosada". Other importing buildings surrounding that square are the cathedral and "El Cabildo" which is the antique government house. Finally you will learn about the history of the mothers of Plaza de Mayo.
After a 3 hours amazing bike ride with lots of new impressions you will return to our meeting point San Telmo.

An improvisational journey through time and space, truth and fiction, poetry and nonsense. Though my personal lens I lay bare the essence of my eye and my mind. I flirt with juxtapositions of cityscapes and intimate ephemeral moments.

So I need new brakes on my car, I don't know exactly what needs to be fixed in regards to the brakes, but What's a good price for a brake repair? My car is a 2003 Hyundai Tiburon, if that helps any.
Most Helpful Guy
It really depends on what needs to be repaired. There are such a wide variety of things that can go wrong with brakes, from a new set of pads, all the way up to a new master cylinder, and everything in between.
Without knowing more, all I can say is that it could be anywhere from $50 to $500.00|00|0

Anyone who owns a Suzuki knows that when it comes to maintaining their automobile only the highest quality replacement parts will do. The vehicle in your driveway is head and shoulders above the rest compared to all the other cars, trucks, and SUVs in today's marketplace. When your Suzuki Forsa rolled off the assembly line, it was destined for a driver who wants long-lasting quality in their automobile. Suzuki car, truck, or SUV owners have come to expect a certain level of a variety of features and options when driving their Forsa around town.
The key to engine power is clean fuel and clean air. Your Suzuki Forsa uses a paper or cloth air filter to remove dust and debris from the air stream before it enters the intake manifold, mixes with your fuel, and gets detonated. If your engine did not have an air filter or air cleaner, your fuel would be filled with particulates from outside. This will plug up your injectors and rob your engine of fuel; making it difficult for your engine to generate power. And unless your Suzuki Forsa air filter is replaced regularly your engine will be robbed of the necessary air flow needed to maintain optimum fuel efficiency. Clearly, replacement air filters are a necessity for everyone.
Trust in the value of the parts you get from carpartsdiscount.com and save time and money on all your upcoming repairs. Given all the hassles associated with fixing broken parts on your car or truck, let www.carpartsdiscount.com be the most authoritative website you go to make purchasing it easy. Buying new Suzuki parts from www.carpartsdiscount.com means you are paying the lowest prices for the highest quality original and aftermarket replacement Forsa parts on the internet. Need 1988, 1987, 1986, 1985 Suzuki Forsa Air Filter & Cleaner parts? We've got them right here.

Question: Variation in the life of a battery is expected but
Variation in the life of a battery is expected, but too much variation would be of concern to the consumer, who would never know if the purchased battery might have a very short life. A random sample of 30 AA batteries of a particular brand produced a standard deviation of 350 hours. If a standard deviation of 288 hours (12 days) is considered acceptable, does this sample provide sufficient evidence that this brand of battery has greater variation than what is acceptable at the 0.05 level of significance? Assume battery life is normally distributed.

|The Coconut Tree
|Created by
|Episode Chronology
|Next segment
The Coconut Tree is the pilot for Chicka Chicka Boom Boom (Series). This is where the original book by Bill Martin Jr. and John Archambault (illustrated by Lois Ehlert). The story is that the letter A (Alex) discovers coconuts sprouts in the tree he hangs out at. He meets up with his buddies, B (Becky) and C (Cody). The letters tell each other that they are going to meet on top of the coconut tree. This might be a good idea until the rest don't want to be left out. Will there be enough room? No, as the letters end up in a heap being in a huge pile after the tree breaks off.. The uppercase letters (Mamas and papas and uncles and aunts) rush to the pile. They help us the lowercase letters, dust off their pants, and help them feel better, fixing skinned knees and stubbed toes. After X Y and Z finally leave, night falls as a full moon comes up. A then sneaks out of bed and goes to climb up the tree again after fixing it.
One day, A goes to hang out under his trademark tree. However, upon reaching the location, he notices there's something in his tree... delicious fresh coconuts. He calls over his friends B and C. B then let's C know this was the tree A was talking about. None knew it was a coconut tree. A then tells B they are going to meet at the top of the coconut tree. B passes the message to C.

The letters climb it up. B comments how the coconuts are delicious, while C isn't that much of a sweet taster. For fun, C throws one off of the tree. This gets the attention of energic D. D wonders where this coconut came from before learning it came from a tree that letters are joining. Why would she leave out on the fun? D jumps and swings on a branch. E, F, and G arrive to see what she is doing. D lands on the ground and jumps on all three of them teasingly, daring them to try to beat her to the others.
"Whee!" said D to E, F; G, "I'll beat you to the top of the coconut tree."
E stops right between F and G. In swift movement, the three letters try to catch D. D jumps in the air, being the energic letter she is, and E, F, and G crash into each other. Since F was between E and G, the three slide right before a crash is heard. H hops over to see what happened. The letters, slightly hurt, continue to climb the tree, sort of mad at D. H thinks "Oh, they are climbing up a tree. Okay..." and walks up.
Chicka chicka boom boom! Will there be enough room? Here comes H up the coconut tree...
A starts to be concerned why I, J and K, are beginning to join him, B, C, D, E, F, G and H, as it was only supposed to be them. He didn't agree to this, but B said it would be fine as long as the others letters didn't climb up. But...they were. No one noticed I inching up. However, they noticed J pouncing on the tree, making it sag a little, causing one of the four coconuts to fall off. K walks to the two.
...and I and J and tag-along K, all on their way up the coconut tree.
I, J, and K settle in. Then more letters at a time began to join in. L, M, N, O and P walk to the tree and climb it up, causing it to start to bend.
Chicka chicka boom boom! Will there be enough room? Look who's coming! L, M, N, O; P!
As if this was more than enough, all of the letters wanted to be in the coconut tree to join altogether. Q, being the hyper pinkie letter, rushes across the field with R and S on her back. Q runs up the coconut tree. T, U; V and W join in, climbing from the opposite side. A coconut falls on T knocking him over as the tree bends more and more, starting to crack.
And Q, R; S! And T, U; V!
A is surprised about the overwhelming amount of popularity his tree gained all in one day. A peeks out, and was ready to see the whole alphabet up the tree as X rolled through the trunk, while Y flew up to the tree, and as for Z... She's the smart one. She did not want to climb up the tree noticing the dangers that could happen as the tree cracked more as soon as X and Y entered. She was right; The tree can't hold up to more than 23 letters as a time. That's from A to W. If either X, Y or Z climb up it, it will end in disaster.
Still more! W! And X, Y; Z! The whole alphabet up the -
The last two coconuts fall off. One rolls on the archy trunk and hits Z, causing her to fly in the air and land under the side the tree is sagging. And then...
Oh, no!
The tree breaks off and the letters and flung in the air. Z looks in surprise and thinks "Ooh...they are flying!". A few seconds later, Z, not being a fan of being crushed, notices the letters and tree were falling under her and tries to run away. But the tree hits her side making her spin uncontrollably in the air. Gravity gets weird on her flinging her to the pile as the letters crash down, terrified, hurt, and clearly not amused (though Y and Q enjoyed the tumble, thinking it was a ride of fun, as Q says "WHOO! That was awesome! HA HA! Do it again!"). A could not believe the mess he and the other letters have gotten into. Why did the 23 other letters want to climb up? It was meant to be only him, B, and C.
Chicka chicka... BOOM! BOOM!
F was severely injured and needed help. In a loud cry, all of the capital letters run to the pile.
Skit skat skoodle doot. Flip flop flee. Everybody running to the coconut tree.
Half of the group of uppercase letters from are shown grabbing half of the group of their children, hugging them, and dusting off their pants.
Mamas and papas and uncles and aunts hug their little dears then dust their pants.
A, B, and C try to get out of the pile, but fails. "Help us up!", they cry. The uppercase A B and C then grab them and takes them away to help them.
"Help us up," cried A, B; C.
The first three, with their parents, topple over as D, not so energic, climbs out to the uppercase D putting a bandage on her knee. E, F, and G follow. E has a swollen appendage on his toe while F was given from the uppercase F a jaunty band-aid on her belly. G is out of breath and collapses, causing F, E, and D to unintentionally stack, too weak to move.
Next from the pileup: skinned-knee D, and stubbed-toe E, and patched-up F; then comes G all out of breath.
H topples them over as he comes out, with I stuck to him. J, K, and L (who has been knotted in the form of a bowtie) follow. H walks away with I having to follow. J and K break down into tears as the uppercase J hugs them and walks off with the little dears. L jumps away as M flips the whole pile over just trying to get out.
H is tangled up with I. J and K are about to cry. L is knotted like a tie.
M's legs get curled while N is leaned. O gets folded up making it impossible for him to roll.
M is looped. N is stooped. O is twisted; alley-oop. Skit skat skoodle doot. Flip flop flee.
M walks away while N helps O. P (with a black-eye) hops out while Q, R; S are helped up. T (with a loose tooth), who was leaning on U, gets upright and they wiggle-jiggle away as a quintet. T does indeed have the tooth fall out of his mouth by itself.
Look who's coming! It's black-eyed P, Q, R; S, and loose-tooth T...
U V and W then come out of the pile and jitter for no reason and wiggle-jiggle, free.
Then, U, V; W: wiggle-jiggle, free!
X chases V and W as Z slides Y away from the tree as the sun sets.
Last to come: X, Y; Z, and the sun goes down on the coconut tree...
It's midnight. The moon rises from the sky.
But - Chicka chicka boom boom! Look, there's a full moon.
Then out of nowhere, A somehow snuck out and begins to fix the tree to its earthy state. That's right; He wanted his tree back. A minute later, the tree is fixed and he starts to climb up, daring the other letters (from B to Z) to race as a call.
A is out of bed, and this is what he said, "Dare double dare you can't catch me. I'll beat you to the top of the coconut tree." Chicka chicka BOOM! BOOM!
A climbs up the tree and settles in to sleep for the night, as the other letters (from B to Z) joined up to him. The End.

- This episode is the re-creation of an award winning picture book by Bill Martin Jr. John Archambault, and Lois Ehlert (Illustrator). This was shortened down to "Chicka chicka...BOOM! BOOM!" (The letters falling down) in a board book, "Chicka Chicka ABC". A sequel to this was made (Chicka Chicka 123) but that was it. Bill passed away a month later. May you rest in peace. :( Anyway, This book has over 2 million copies and is one of the most popular alphabet books ever. Great for kids that get tired of the classic ABC song.
- E (Ed), F (Fredrika), G (Gwen), T (Tommy), V (Vicky), Y (Yorkoto) and Z (Zena), when hurt by a few coconuts or a few of themselves, shout out "OOF!".
- When all the other letters fell down, U (Ulysses), V (except when hit on the head by Y) and W (William) did not get hurt.
- J (Jake) and K (Katie) weep a lot of tears as they were commented by someone else that they are babies, which is wrong.
- U V and W wiggle; jiggle quickly while X (Xavier) Y and Z follow them.

jeremyd Review
Basement Play Area
We installed these into our basement as a play area--holds up well. Couple tips to get the most out of these mats is to use either a thin grip pad underneath, or slip under the wall/floor joints to prevent slipping. We did the latter--they slide under the gap between the sheet rock and our basement floor with the help of a screwdriver to push them through--works great and no sliding panels. Another user said to cut the extra panels to use as end pieces--we did this as well--worked great. Held up well enough so far--all in all a good solution.

Vatican City — Pope Francis accepted Scotland Cardinal Keith O'Brien's decision to renounce all "duties and privileges" associated with being a cardinal.
The former archbishop of St. Andrews and Edinburgh, who resigned in 2013 after admitting to sexual misconduct, will no longer exercise the role of a cardinal, including by serving as a papal adviser, a member of Vatican congregations and councils, and as an elector of a new pope, the Vatican press office said.
A written statement from the College of Cardinals, published Friday, said, "The Holy Father has accepted the resignation of the rights and privileges of a cardinal expressed in canons 349, 353 and 356 of the Code of Canon Law, presented by his eminence Cardinal Keith Michael Patrick O'Brien, archbishop emeritus of St. Andrews and Edinburgh, after a long period of prayer."
Passionist Fr. Ciro Benedettini, a Vatican spokesman, told journalists the resignation was "not a punishment resulting from a process" or any formal proceedings against the cardinal, but rather it came from the cardinal himself after a long period of prayer and reflection "in dialogue with the Holy Father."
While he will no longer be invited to attend consistories and other gatherings of cardinals, including an eventual conclave for the election of a new pope, Benedettini said, he retains his faculties as a priest and retired bishop.
We say: Charlottesville reveals the weeping wound of racism. What do we, the American Catholic faith community, do next? Read the editorial.
The College of Cardinals' statement also said Pope Francis expressed his pastoral concern for all Catholics in Scotland and encouraged "them to continue with hope the path of renewal and reconciliation," the Vatican statement said.
In his own statement, released through the Scottish bishops' conference, O'Brien again apologized "to the Catholic Church and the people of Scotland."
"There have been times that my sexual conduct has fallen below the standards expected of me. For that I am deeply sorry," said his statement released Friday.
"I thank Pope Francis for his fatherly care of me and of those I have offended in any way. I will continue to play no part in the public life of the church in Scotland; and will dedicate the rest of my life in retirement, praying especially for the Archdiocese of St. Andrews and Edinburgh, for Scotland, and for those I have offended in any way," the cardinal wrote.
The cardinal stepped down as archbishop in February 2013 after the Observer, a British weekly national newspaper, carried a story detailing complaints of three priests and one former priest who alleged O'Brien had made sexual advances toward them.
The cardinal initially denied the allegations but, less than a week later, he issued a public apology for his actions. He did not attend the March conclave that elected Pope Francis because, he had said, he did not want media attention to be on him rather than on the process of electing a new pope.
Following a request from Pope Francis, the Vatican's Congregation for Bishops appointed in April 2014 then-Auxiliary Bishop Charles Scicluna of Malta to go to Scotland to collect testimony for a formal investigation against O'Brien.
The Vatican statement did not mention the visit or its eventual outcome.
In a separate statement, the Catholic church in Scotland welcomed news of the cardinal removing himself from the key duties associated with the office of cardinal, calling it "an unprecedented action."
"Cardinal O'Brien will also be reduced to a strictly private life with no further participation in any public, religious or civil events," it said.
In the same statement, Archbishop Leo Cushley of St. Andrews and Edinburgh said he was confident that the pope's decision was "fair, equitable and proportionate."
He said the cardinal's behavior had "distressed many, demoralized faithful Catholics and made the church less credible to those who are not Catholic."
Cushley expressed his own feelings of "sorrow and regret to those most distressed by the actions of my predecessor. I also pay tribute to those who had the courage to come forward to speak to Archbishop Scicluna. I hope now that all of us affected by this sad and regrettable episode will embrace a spirit of forgiveness, the only spirit that can heal any bitterness and hurt that still remains."
O'Brien, who was born in Ireland, currently lives near the Scottish border in Northumberland County in northeast England in a home purchased by the archdiocese.
According to an earlier archdiocesan statement, the decision to buy the property for the cardinal was made by the archdiocese's trustees in accordance with their duty to provide for elderly and retired clergy. It said the property belongs to the church and any future sale of the house would be returned to archdiocesan accounts.

Definition Edit
A grantback is an arrangement under which a licensee agrees to extend to the licensor of intellectual property the right to use the licensee's improvements to the licensed technology.
Overview Edit
Grantbacks can have procompetitive effects, especially if they are nonexclusive. Such arrangements provide a means for the licensee and the licensor to share risks and reward the licensor for making possible further innovation based on or informed by the licensed technology, and both promote innovation in the first place and promote the subsequent licensing of the results of the innovation. Grantbacks may adversely affect competition, however, if they substantially reduce the licensee's incentives to engage in research and development and thereby limit rivalry.
A non-exclusive grantback allows the licensee to practice its technology and license it to others. Such a grantback provision may be necessary to ensure that the licensor is not prevented from effectively competing because it is denied access to improvements developed with the aid of its own technology. Compared with an exclusive grantback, a non-exclusive grantback, which leaves the licensee free to license improvements technology to others, is less likely to harm competition.

If you are looking for a basketball game where you can test your own skills or challenge friends, all without unnecessary additions or extras, HOOP might be a title to pay attention to in 2016! In this simple, neat looking basketball game you can play six different game modes either solo or with a friend, trying to get the highest score possible on up to eight different maps.
HOOP is a new high score based, arcade sports game released both for Android and iOS systems, created by the developer PixelTurtle for 2016. This studio is not extremely well known, but you might have heard of them before thanks to their other titles: MOON and Metaball: Episode One. If you are having trouble finding them on the Apple App Store, it's because they are on there under the name Red & Grey Media.
HOOP is rated with an average of 4.2/5 stars on the Google Play Store, while the version on the Apple App Store is less updated and doesn't have enough ratings yet in 2016. The game has been downloaded between 100,000 and 500,000 times so far, although the general player reviews seem to be rather mixed. What might be the reason for this? Is the game not addictive enough for everyone? Let's find out!
About HOOP
HOOP is a game title that is very descriptive, even more so than you would think at first. Since the game is all about trying to get as many basketballs into the hoop as possible, it clearly indicates the focus of the game. It's also a title that is very simple and straight to the point, just like the game itself. In this game you won't be managing a basketball team or playing real time sports, instead you will be able to take on six different game modes in race for the high score.
The first game mode that you will get to try out is called One-Play, and this is the most basic game mode available. In this mode you will get to pick one of five locations on the basketball court, determining where you will be aiming towards the hoop from. Upon picking the location you like the most, the game will count down from three, then the action begins. You will have 30 seconds to get as many balls into the hoop as possible, then you will be given a score based on your performance.
The controls to get the ball into the hoop are just as simple as the whole concept of the game. All you have to do is tap the screen and hold your finger on it while a power bar gets filled below the ball, then release whenever you wish. Based on how powerful the throw is, the ball will fly towards the hoop, hopefully landing in it, giving you one point. You can keep throwing balls one after another without any delay, but balls can hit eachother, possibly knocking themselves in the wrong direction.
The secondary game mode in HOOP is called Two-Player, which is exactly what you would guess. This mode is one in which you can challenge a friend by playing on the same device one after another. Whoever gets the highest score under their 30 seconds is the winner. Endless is the third mode, in which you start with 30 seconds left on the clock as usual, but whenever you score a point it adds two extra seconds. This means that if you are good enough you can extend the clock for a very long time.
Up comes the fourth game mode, Arcade. This is a challenging game mode, in which you have to face the computer, throwing balls towards the same hoop at the same time. Your goal here is simply to get more points under the time limit than the computer. This might not always be easy, as you can pick from four difficulties, which decide how well the computer aims.
If don't want to play against the computer, then why not try the fifth mode of HOOP, called Duel? This is most similar to the Two-Play mode, as in you have to play against a friend. In this mode the first player will be presented with a target score, which they have to reach. When this happens, it's the second player's turn to do the same. Whoever fails to reach the target score gets to be punished by something written on the end game screen, such as "Drink 3 cups of water quickly!".
Last but not least, there is the Contest mode. In this mode you have a maximum of 25 balls, separated into stacks of 5 balls all around the court. You have to start by throwing the balls from the left, then move onto the next stack when the previous are all gone, all the way until you reach and empty the stack on the right. You have 60 seconds to get as many point as you can.
To make things a bit more exciting in HOOP, you can decide to play on up to eight different maps in the game. Only two of these are unlocked in the beginning, but the rest can be accessed by paying a certain amount of coins for each. Coins are earned in each game mode, based on your overall score. These maps differ in color, style and sometimes even weather. Some of these are the park, nighttime park, beach, snowy city or the farm.
Other than these customization options, you can also choose from a selection of 10 differently colored balls for free, right from the beginning. These only change the ball visuals, but don't have any gameplay effects.
Even though the game features the currency of coins, there are no in-app purchases in place that would allow players to purchase more coins. Instead the game focuses more on video ads, which appear after every third completed "level". Unfortunately, you can't disable these at the moment either.
Cheats & Tips for HOOP
Because of the lack of in-app purchases, the players of HOOP are definitely hungry for cheats allowing them to get coins at a faster rate than usual. There are a few of these cheats, tips and tricks around that you can take advantage of, and because searching for these would take up your precious time, I listed them right below instead!
The first and most repeatable of the cheats that you can find in the game is definitely the ability to watch an ad in exchange for 100 coins at any time. Just tap the little plus icon in the top right corner of the menu, wait until the video ad finishes playing, then enjoy the free coins!
Another similarly great cheat in HOOP is a one time bonus of 250 coins. To get this for free all you have to do is answer yes when the game asks if you want to rate it for a reward of 250 coins. The funny thing about this is that you don't have to actually rate it, if you don't want to. Just tap yes, then come back to the game right away, your reward will already be credited to your account!
Now, let me tell you about a trick that can be used against the computer. This is about the possibility of your ball and the computer's ball hitting eachother, knocking themselves away from the hoop. You can actually use this in the Arcade mode to decrease the score of the computer by continously knocking its ball in the wrong direction. Just make sure you earn more points than the computer, then start denying his throws until the clock runs out!
HOOP Review
The deceptively simple promise of HOOP is something that was probably the main factor for many of its players when deciding whether to give it a shot or not. A high score based sports game where landing basketballs in the hoop is all you have to do seems like a rather basic idea, but what if it ends up being extremely addictive? Because I had a feeling this could be a definite possibility, I chose to give the game a chance.
My first impression upon launching the game was that even though it was about simplified basketball, it felt very much like most other high score based titles. The Unity visuals and the uncomplicated menu design with only a few straightforward buttons didn't leave much for the imagination. All that I had left here was to start the game and experience the gameplay.
I initially started out with the most basic One-Player game mode, but soon after getting the hang of the one touch ball throws, I moved from one mode to another, giving each of them at least one try. I must say I appreciate the fact that there are six different game modes to pick from, as even though not all of them differ that much from eachother, it's still a nice variety. I liked both the solo modes that allowed me to challenge myself, as well as the two player and the versus computer modes, that were all about speed and precision.
The timed nature of HOOP also added to the excitement in each game mode, as 30 seconds is not a long time to score. This is why my favorite mode turned out to be Endless, as it allowed me to extend the clock by two seconds with each point. This is also the reason why I found this mode to be the most exciting, as being able to continue for longer depended on my throws only. I spent most of my game time playing this mode and trying to beat my high score, but I could imagine all the other modes to be rather competitive as well.
Now, for the customization options, this is something that I didn't enjoy that much. The cost to unlock new maps is very high compared to how many coins can be earned in each game. Even in my best games I got around a maximum of 200-300 coins, while the most expensive map costs 5,000 coins alone. This means that if someone wants to unlock all of them, then it would take them quite a few hours. I'm not sure if the game would last that long, however, as the gameplay just doesn't evolve over time.
The ability to pick from different balls is the secondary way to customize the gameplay of HOOP, but sadly the balls have no impact whatsoever, and since they are all free it also takes away any kind of possible progression from them. They are basically just reskins that don't really matter at all.
Overall, HOOP is a very straightforward high score based basketball game, which has a good variety of game modes to play. The one touch gameplay is challenging to learn and even harder to perfect, which is great, but it can get repetitive after a while. So if you want a very simple basketball themed game, then this could be a good choice, but don't expect anything fancy.
HOOP Ratings
Artwork: The artwork of HOOP gets a 6/10. I wanted to like the visuals of this game for the most part, but sadly they are not that unique. They suffer a bit from the limitations of the Unity engine, which makes it look too similar to many other games released these days.
Music & SFX: The music and SFX of the game deserve an 8/10. The chill beat mixed with some synthetic sounds that plays throughout the menus of the game is interesting to listen to. The music stops when the actual game starts however, but fortunately the SFX are realistic enough to make up for it.
Story & Originality: For the originality of this title, I give it a 7/10. While the core one touch gameplay is nothing exceptional and has been seen many times before, the execution of the game is interesting to say the least, with six different game modes to play as a bonus.
General Gameplay: The general gameplay of HOOP gets a 6/10 from me. Thanks to the various game modes and the challenge rating of them, this is a game that can entertain most players for a while. Unfortunately, the high cost of unlocks and the core gameplay that always stays the same sets it back a bit.
Addictiveness: I award the addictiveness of the game with a 5/10. I can see this being addictive for the first hour, but after that most players will start wandering off. There are just no new things added over time, the gameplay stays the same, while the only thing that could change it up is too costy.
Overall Score: 6/10.

like were you rent a room together with someone from the opposite gender,
this also happens in some unis were the doorm rooms are shared between opposite genders.
I might do it in the future and had an offer from some guy that wants a roomie, but I have my reserves.
is it inappropriate?
Most Helpful Guy
That is not likely to end well. Regardless of intentions, sexual feelings make themselves known. Being in close physical proximity, changing clothes with the other present (even with a screen), and generally sharing that intimate a space so much with someone of the gender that you are attracted to results in urges that become overwhelming.
Sharing a commo bathroom but having a separate bedroom is much better.11|00|0
Most Helpful Girl
it all depends on a few things, from your feelings for him, how comfortable you would feel, how he feels about you. It would be completely different then sharing a room with the same sex. I don't know if i could do it, at least not long term, unless i was dating him.11|00|0
neutral feelings like friends or house mates were you are only renting together not romantically tied together
I guess you could try though you would still need to be close friends by sharing a room as you have to share the space, no privacy and you would learn everything about each other, like what you do in you both do in your spare time.
Though i guess it wouldn't be much different to sharing with the same sex, if you are good friends :)

"Grace under pressure"
About: Cheltenham General Hospital Cheltenham General Hospital Cheltenham GL53 7AN
Posted by Tony
Things did not start well - within first 48 hours I was accused of being mad and a fantasist, and one consultant even said that as soon "as the blood tests come back we are going to toss your possessions in a plastic bag and deposit you and it outside the nearest A&E to your home" (which was Cheltenham General!),
Then the tests came back: broken spine in six places leading to paralysis in waist area, acute kidney failure both kidneys, sepsis leading to permanent damage to heart, liver, pancreas and infection to lungs, faecal incontinence, at least one heart attack, gout at the very rare stage of stage 4.
I had six weeks of excellent care and without the attention of the team there, these issues would have gone untreated for a few more years leading to permanent and total paralysis.
Instead, the deterioration was arrested through the diligence of the nursing and junior doctor team on this ward.
Sadly my spine injury or injuries were picked up too late to address, spinal column is now deteriorating and I am wheelchair bound for life.
I would particularly wish to commend the many nurses, often in training or from their bank who were expected to sit with violent patients, were punched and spat at, yet continued to smile and offer love and attention to these poor souls and to provide what dignity they could to those of us with incontinence and in my case with a permanent rectal bleed.
I would also like to commend the chaplaincy for the support they offer which I suspect is taken for granted and wrongly so.
Response from Cheltenham General Hospital about a year and a half ago

Meade 8" f/10 LX200-ACF Advanced Coma-Free Telescope
The most widely used research telescope on earth now comes with the most advanced optical system. Meade's LX200-ACF brings Advanced Coma-Free (ACF) optics within reach of aspiring astronomers everywhere. Nearly every observatory reflector in the world uses an aplanatic (coma-free) optical system like the Ritchey-Chrétien (RC), including NASA's Hubble Space Telescope. Now you can own similar optics to what the professionals use. The Meade LX200-ACF telescope includes all the field-proven features of the LX200 including GPS, Primary Mirror Lock, Oversized Primary Mirror, SmartDrive™; Smart Mount™, AutoStar® II and more. The new Meade LX200-ACF. It's the biggest news in astronomy since, well, the LX200.
A traditional RC design is a type of reflector that delivers a coma-free, flat field of view via hyperbolic primary and secondary mirrors. RC telescopes (from a variety of manufacturers) are found in most of the world's top observatories and NASA's Hubble Space Telescope. Because the mirrors in these telescopes have always been very expensive to make, few amateur astronomers could enjoy them. Fortunately, Meade engineers developed a radical new Advanced Coma Free design by combining a hyperbolic secondary mirror with a corrector-lens-and-spherical-primary-mirror combination that performs as one hyperbolic element. This ACF design produces a coma-free, flat field of view that rivals traditional RC telescopes at a fraction of the cost. The design even eliminates diffraction spikes and improves astigmatism, both of which are inherent in the traditional RC design. When reviewing Meade's LX400-ACF Advanced Coma Free, Sky and Telescope magazine said, " [It] does indeed perform like a [RC]. The difference between the off-axis images (compared to a Schmidt-Cassegrain) was dramatic to say the least."
Meade 8" f/10 LX200-ACF Advanced Coma-Free Telescope Features
- f/10 Advanced Coma-Free Optics: Building from a classic RC design, Meade has created a new design with the same coma-free pinpoint star images and flatter field that discerning astrophotographers and most professional observatories have come to expect from classic Ritchey-Chrétien optics. Meade's Advanced Coma-Free system also reduces the astigmatism and eliminates diffractions spikes found in classical RCs. The LX200-ACF is the perfect platform for the demanding researcher and imaging enthusiast.
- Meade Ultra-High Transmission Coatings (UHTC) increases total light transmission and image brightness by nearly 20% over Meade's standard coatings. Objects such as stars, galaxies and nebulae will appear significantly brighter.
- Primary Mirror Lock locks the mirror in place during long-exposure astrophotography.
- Oversize Primary Mirror diameters are greater than their listed aperture (e.g., the diameter of the 8" LX200-ACF is actually 8.25"). This additional 1/4" yields a wide, fully illuminated field-of-view.
- Smart Mount™ constantly refines pointing accuracy each time an object is centered and updated. Compatible with both equatorial and altazimuth mounts.
- Coma Killer - What is coma? It's not some sort of astronomical state of unconsciousness. It's an optical aberration. Precisely defined, coma is a distortion in which the image of a star cannot be focused to a point, but takes on the shape of a comet.
- Smart Drive provides permanent periodic error correction (PPEC) on both axes by learning and averaging error over the course of one or more training periods, thereby minimizing guiding corrections during long-exposure photographs. PPEC is available on both axes and functions in both polar and altazimuth modes.
- Sony®GPS Receiver Sensor automatically inputs precise time, date, and geographical location to help quickly and precisely align the telescope.
- AutoAlign - Telescopes with Meade's AutoAlign come pre-aligned. They are smart scopes that know the night sky right out of the box. AutoAlign picks two fail-proof alignment stars for you and places them right in your view-finder. Just center to fine tune your alignment and the wonders of the universe are at your fingertips.
- AutoStar® II controller features "Hot Keys" for quick access to a 145,000 celestial object database. AutoStar II can be updated with the latest software upgrades, guided tours and timely objects like comets.
Meade guarantees their product to perform as well as promised and the First Light Program was made to prove this to the customers.
If your telescope's workmanship or materials fail within the first 30 days of ownership, Meade will replace it- no questions asked! See the Sales Info/ Services button to your left for more information.

- What a phenominal telescope!
Wow! I'm seriously impressed with this 8 LX200.
I purchased it a year and a half or so ago, and it has served me well ever since. It has pinpoint accuracy--this mount is incredibly capable, and the optics on this telescope are truly impeccable! It has provided me with countless hours of enjoyment. Make sure to get the microfocuser, as it makes observing very convenient.
If you ever have questions with your order, ask for Jason. He was always very helpful.

Mention an effective increase of 480 that increase Maximum eyepiece recommended for a clear observation ejem 3mm, 6mm and what more can you comment on its increases even the minimum supports 40mm and 50mmQuestion by: Miguel Angel Sabag on Jul 19, 2017 12:11:00 PMGood day and thanks for asking, unless you live in an area with exceptionally good seeing, you will almost never be able to use the maximum magnification of a telescope. To start with, I wouldn't buy an eyepiece more powerful than an 8mm or 10mm. If you local seeing supports one of these, you could try a slightly more powerful one, and so on.Answer by: Charles Walker (Admin) on Jul 20, 2017 9:10:00 AM

Chevy Cruze Eco-D Tipped as Name of New Cruze Diesel Model
When it does go on sale next year Chevy's new Cruze Diesel model will reportedly be called the 'Eco-D'.
While early rumors suggested GM would bill the diesel model as a performance option, due in part to it's impressive torque, this latest bit of info signifies the automaker will instead promote diesel as a fuel-efficient alternative its gasoline counterpart. Currently Chevy offers a special Cruze Eco gasoline model, capable of achieving 42-mpg on the highway when equipped with a manual transmission. An Eco-D model could offer up to 50-mpg highway as the flagship of the Eco line.
Current diesel-powered Cruze models, like the Australian Holden Cruze, are powered by a 2.0-liter turbocharged diesel engine making 160-hp and 265 -lb-ft of torque. Look for the Cruze Eco-D to hit the market in late 2012 as a 2013 model year car.

Our Honeymoon on Longtail Beach Resort was INCREDIBLE! Longtail beach resort was such a fantastic start to our stay on Koh Phangan. We arrived in the afternoon (took a ferry from Koh Samui)....then a taxi (300 baht per person) and arrived after a bumpy ride to Longtail Beach Resort. Feel free to email me anytime with questions. The food was delicious, the workers are all so friendly, helpful and polite! We stayed in #2, right across from the restaurant and so so so close to the beach! (Hard beds, but this was the case at all 4 places we stayed in Thailand, so "oh well" !)
Thank you, Wacharin and your team, for a fabulous honeymoon!

The first tuatara reptile to be hatched outside its native New Zealand in decades has been born in an English zoo.
Tuatara are believed to have been on Earth for 225 million years, before most dinosaur species existed, but until now had only been bred in New Zealand's offshore islands or in a handful of its mainland zoos.
Chester Zoo keeper Isolde McGeorge has spent 38 years trying to encourage the reptiles to reproduce.
The new arrival came on December 5, weighing 4.21 grams, following a 238-day incubation period.
The zoo waited until this week to check the infant's health before going public.
"Breeding tuatara is an incredible achievement," Ms McGeorge said.
"They are notoriously difficult to breed and it's probably fair to say that I know that better than most as it has taken me 38 years to get here.
"It has taken lots of hard work, lots of stressful moments and lots of tweaking of the conditions in which we keep the animals along the way but it has all been very much worth it.
"This animal has been on the planet for over a quarter of a billion years and to be the first zoo to ever breed them outside of their homeland in New Zealand is undoubtedly an amazing event.
"They really are a living fossil and an evolutionary wonder."
We've hatched the first ever tuatara outside of their native New Zealand - a species that outlived the dinosaurs! pic.twitter.com/ieabtZYqSm— Chester Zoo (@chesterzoo) February 1, 2016
Tuatara, scientific name Sphenodon punctatus, reproduce only every four years, and Ms McGeorge spent 12 years trying to help mother Mustard and father Pixie procreate.
About 70 million years ago the species became extinct everywhere except New Zealand.
The tuatara is revered in Maori culture and few people are given permission to visit the islands where they live.
It belongs to a group of animals commonly known as beak heads, or Rhynchocephalia.
One of its most curious features is a "third eye" on the top of its head. Despite having a retina, cornea, lens and nerve endings, the eye is not used for seeing.
Ms McGeorge says the next challenge is to repeat the zoo's success and help increase numbers of this endangered species.

The Saturday telecast of the London Olympics is the most-watched Summer Games opening night on record, but viewers slam the network's decision not to air the key competitions live.
NBC's coverage for the first night of Olympic Competition has set a new record, so the network claims. The Saturday, July 28 broadcast, which saw Ryan Lochte defeating Michael Phelps in a swimming showdown, pulled in an average of 28.7 million viewers to make it the most-watched summer Olympics opening night.
The number tops the first night of the 2008 Beijing Olympics (24.0 million), and the 2004 Athens Olympics (19.8 million). Additionally, it is almost two millions more than the audience of the first competition night during the 1996 Atlanta Games (26.3 million), which previously held the record.
The opening ceremony on Friday also drew a big rating for the network. An average of 40.7 million people tuned in the event directed by "Slumdog Millionaire" helmer Danny Boyle, though people have complained about NBC's decision not to air the opening ceremony live.
The network also delayed the coverage of key competitions, prompting angry fans to express their disappointment on Twitter. One of those who criticized the gaps in the TV coverage was Piers Morgan. "Laughable that America is yet to start watching the Olympic opening ceremony on TV. Seriously," the CNN host wrote on July 27.
James Poniewozik of Time magazine also tweeted, "NBC tape delay coverage is like the airlines: its interest is in giving you the least satisfactory service you will still come back for." Responding to the backlash, NBC's executive producer of the games, Jim Bell, stated, "You do know that all sports events are being streamed live right?"

Polenta (Cornmeal) Chips
READY IN: 55mins
Recipe by Marli
Iain Hewitson is my favourite Australian chef, he serves these chips at his Melbourne resturant Tolarno's. Serve them as an appetiser or as a side dish -- great with sweet chilli sauce. Prep time doesn't include the overnight cooling.
Top Review by Aussie mum 2_2
My husband made these today, added extra parmesan cheese and instead of chips he made medallions and served it with rump steak & steamed veg. Easy to make & tasty, thanks, we'll be having these again
