Hand watering, though very gratifying in the sense that one is directly nurturing the plants, is most likely the least efficient and reliable way to water plants. People love to water in full sun during the day, which leads to high evaporation rates. Also, in splashing what appears to be a large volume on top of the soil, folks often think they have really watered the plant, when in fact, soil can only absorb limited amounts of water at a time. In fact, if you come back to a hand watered area after the water has been absorbed, generally you will find there is water in the top inch or two of soil only.
Irrigation is much more efficient than hand watering for a number of reasons. First, irrigation systems sprinkle or drip water over the soil emulating rain, and allowing the soil to absorb water a little bit at a time. Irrigation systems can be programmed to run at dawn or dusk, when there is far less evaporation. As a general rule, lawn irrigation spray heads for example, are eighty percent more efficient than hand watering. The problem with spray heads of course, is they were developed for lawns, and not for perennial and flower beds.
As mentioned earlier, many of the perennials, shrubs, and ornamentals commonly available, evolved in different environments, so why would you deliver the same amount of water to them? With the exception of water plants, all plants need varied levels of moisture for stronger roots. Trees for example, generally appreciate deep heavy watering with a week r so to absorb moisture allowing roots to grow and reach for more. Shrubs similarly will want water twice a week, and smaller perennials perhaps three times a week. These generalities regarding timing will not apply to drought loving plants of course, or soils that are more saturated with moisture because they are located near a body of water, but they illustrate that watering a bed of mixed trees, shrubs, and perennials with a broadcast spray head is unlikely to deliver the needs of all the plants in the bed. Instead, look for ways to deliver plant specific watering.
Drip irrigation is the simplest means to deliver plant specific watering. Drip irrigation is also sixty to eighty percent more efficient than spray head watering. Drip systems were invented by the Israelies for growing fruits in the desert with minimal water. Israely farmers found that if they slowly dripped water directly to the roots zone of the plants, the plants absorbed a higher ratio of the water, reducing evaporation and creating the most efficient watering system on the planet.
Drip systems come in several forms; the original form is a thin spaghetti like tube with an emitter on the end that literally drips water into the root zone of the plant. Emitters come at different drip ratios so that when watering trees, you can deliver much more water per an hour than lets say a flower pot whose roots are closer to the surface and requires less volume of water to saturate the roots. The next step up is drip pipe, plastic pipe with the emitters built in. These come with different spacing and can be used when watering a bed of plants that have similar water needs. Drip pipe can also be used to circle larger trees, and for subsoil irrigation of lawns.
Finally there are micro spray heads, and low volume spray heads. These are spray heads that need less pressure and volume than lawn sprinklers and can be calibrated to be area and/or plant specific. We like to use these on greenroofs where water is only needed for the first year, or in other beds of groundcover.

Wedding gift question
- 20 Replies
We are going to a wedding in less than a month. It's on of my best friends that I have known for more then 10 years. They have decided to throuw their wedding while we are visiting in California (we live in NY). It's a country style wedding ( not sure exactly what that means), but they have booked a venue that it's gonna be average $100 per guest. We are going with 2 kids. They are not doing a registry because they live in a very small house and don't have place for stuff. So I figured we'd give money. How much should we give them though?
Quoting Anonymous: As much as you feel comfortable. I hate giving money, honestly. I feel like it says, "this is how much you're worth to me," instead of "this is what I can honestly afford" LOL
it's a touchy subject. I would love to give them a lot...lol but my husband signs the checks so I don't have much control over it. But also I don't think he has a clue how much he should be giving although we can afford it.
Quoting bluebunnybabe: $100 is is a good gift for a wedding. Just because someone chooses to spend a fortune on their wedding, doesn't mean you have to give more. As a guest, you really shouldn't know what it costs anyway.
we are very close and I asked :)
What ever you can afford and feel want to give them.

From the days when the first humans stared up at the night sky, mankind has had but one dream: to achieve sexual gratification with electronic devices. And though our ancestors achieved that goal, it's time for our generation to take electronic self-stimulation to the next level. Thankfully, OhMiBod is all over this with an Indiegogo campaign to add WiFi capabilities to their remote-controlled vibrator.
The device, as it stands (or reclines), already allows the vibrator to be controlled via the OhMiBod Remote smartphone app over Bluetooth. But Bluetooth is a short-range networking protocol, and what if you want to activate a vibrator from anywhere in the world?
Yes, that is a sentence I just typed.
Features of the app/vibrator include:
- Voice-to-vibration
- Touch control
- Tap and save
- Accelerometer
- Preset patterns
OhMiBod is trying to raise $20,000, and they're already halfway there with 39 days left. There are still some good deals to be had for backers, to wit:
- $89 gets you one of the new devices (retail value $129). Limited to 250 backers, and almost 100 have been claimed thus far. Also includes a "wearable panty." Not the other kind.
- Two- and three-pack deals (also limited in quantity)
- Or pick up a T-shirt for $29 with the logo
You can read more about the OhMiBod project on their IndieGoGo page.

text: WASHINGTON, May 2 (UPI) -- U.S. Earth observation capabilities are declining with next-generation missions hindered by budget shortfalls and launch failures, a report says. A National Research Council report says reduced funding, launch failures and changes in mission design and scope have led to a rapid decline in capability as long-running missions end and vital new missions are delayed, lost or canceled. "The projected loss of observing capability will have profound consequences on science and society, from weather forecasting to responding to natural hazards," Dennis Hartmann, professor of atmospheric sciences at the University of Washington and chairman of the report committee, said in a National Academy of Sciences release Wednesday. Budgets for NASA's earth science program will remain inadequate to meet pressing national needs in the near term, the report found, and recommended NASA define and implement a cost-constrained approach to mission development. The study was sponsored by NASA and carried out under the authority of the National Academy of Sciences.

It was not an exciting draft day for the Denver Nuggets, nor is it likely to be an exciting free agent period. However, listening to General Manager Masai Ujiri talk, he seems to know something about the Nuggets roster that the rest of the NBA does not. Going into his third season as General Manager of the Nuggets, Ujiri, along with President Josh Kroenke, have redeveloped a Nuggets roster that lost its best player in franchise history, Carmelo Anthony. The results have lead to a full roster and players waiting to have a breakout season.
Ujiri, in his early forties, does not fit the mold of General Manager that has been set as a precedent throughout the league. Ujiri, a Nigerian, is the first General Manager in American sports born on the African continent. Ujiri started as an unpaid scout for the Orlando Magic before taking paid positions with the Nuggets and Toronto Raptors. He was appointed to general manager of the Nuggets in the summer of 2010 and in his first week on the job, Carmelo Anthony asked for a trade.
It was a stressful first half of the season as the New Jersey Nets of Brooklyn and the New York Knicks battled over Anthony. The Nets offered an enticing package that included Derrick Favors and Brook Lopez. The basketball community thought it was a great deal and called for Ujiri to pull the trigger, but Masai kept a poker face and hit the jackpot with the New York Knicks. In the Anthony trade, the Nuggets received Wilson Chandler, Danilo Galinari, Kosta Koufos, Timofey Mosgov and Raymond Felton, who was then traded. The Knicks depleted roster has won one playoff game to the Nuggets seven since the trade. Ujiri has also added Javale McGee, Al Harrington, Corey Brewer, Rudy Fernandez and Andre Miller to the team.
Last year's rookie class of Kenneth Faried, Jordan Hamilton and Julian Stone rounded out the Nuggets' roster. The management team now feels confident in their bench and needs a year of evaluation for making changes. This shaped the Nuggets draft as being one for the future rather than the present. The 2012 picks, two foreign players no one has heard of and Baylor's Qunicy Miller, who tore his ACL last year, are not likely to see the roster this season as the Nuggets continue to evolve as a young team with a full rotation.
Ujiri seems confident that an emergent star exists among his up and coming players. The most likely candidates include: Ty Lawson, Kenneth Faried, Arron Afflalo, Javale McGee and Danilo Gallinari. Only time will tell if any of these players can lead the Nuggets to a championship. However, it's getting hard to bet against Masai Ujiri as he has yet to make a bad move in his position. Masai Ujiri just may be able to give George Karl a team that can compete in the NBA.

Edit Article
wikiHow to Perform an Andreslam in Pro Wrestling
Many of the moves in professional wrestling can cause serious injury if you do not do them right. Although some pain is to be expected, the same as in all contact sports, but they are all impressive. In this article, we'll look at some of the most devastating moves in professional wrestling. Do not try any of these moves unless you have been trained to do so by a professional.
1Place yourself in front of the opponent.
2Grab your opponent's arm with your weak arm, and lift below the other wrestler's crotch like a fireman's carry.
3Allow your opponent to come to your shoulders, duck your head and spin your opponent onto your strong arm.
4Continue from the spin. Slam your opponent off your shoulder into the ground.

- If done right, this will look great, but so as not to paralyze them by severing their spine, make sure your dominant knee, hits the ground as in a Batista Spine buster, just a second before you let them hit. In this, you need to be strong enough to support your opponents weight while falling them to the mat, otherwise you will drop them before completing the move.
- As with any physical activity, be sure to take preventive measures to avoid hurting yourself or another, if it is fake wrestling.
- Remember that wrestling moves can hurt the opponent if not done properly.
- Do not try these moves without the proper training.
- Be sure to plan the more dangerous moves, involving the head, neck, and spine with your opponent before the match, so you can plan the landings.

Squeaky wheels: Frazee backtracks on cuts to ag and sports
Game on for ag, gymnastics and cross-country.
Last week, the Frazee School Board met and decided on a few changes to the original list of positions and programs to be cut from this coming year's budget.
The second reading of the ordinance finalized the cuts and what will be returned to the budget.
One of two agriculture positions was slated to be cut from next year's budget. The staff development committee has a pot of money, and it decided to kick in $40,000 toward the $60,000-per-year position in order to keep both teachers employed. The school district will pay the remaining $20,000.
Monday afternoon, Frazee Schools Superintendent Deron Stender said because of a "squeaky wheel," gymnastics and cross-country will be restored as well.
Several parents and students spoke at the two school board meetings where the two sports were reported to be added to the cost containment list -- in other words, cut from the school.
"Real or not, the possibility is that the parents involved will enroll their students in other districts," Stender said, adding that was a major deciding factor. "We're victim to those kinds of threats."
To help make up for the extra costs of the two sports not being cut and the $20,000 from the ag position, both principals will have their contracts reduced by 21 days each.
"It's like we're wizards playing with magic," Stender said on trying to make the budget work, yet make staff and the public happy, and bring a good education to the students.
With gymnastics being taken off the cost containment list, danceline, which was slated to replace gymnastics for Title 9 purposes, will not be a part of the budget. That's another sore spot.
"They feel like they didn't get to advocate for danceline," he said. "How come 45 can't and eight can? (Referring to the amount of participants in danceline and gymnastics, respectively.) Unfortunately, it comes to program against program."
The budget cutting process is a stressful one, and one Stender hopes to not have to repeat it year after year.
"I feel like we're a nation in a Third World country. It's a civil war against ourselves. I wish we could work together," he said.
One way Stender and the school board are trying to work with the public is a new approach to getting a referendum passed for the district.
Stender's new proposal for a referendum, which will be on the November ballot, includes less aggression and more allocated funds -- an approach he hopes the public will prefer.
At a public meeting Monday afternoon, about half a dozen audience members agreed the new approach may just work.
This time around -- the past three school referendums have been defeated -- there will be three questions on the ballot, specifying where people want their tax money to go to within the school district.
Stender listed the three he thinks are the most important. One is support for the all-day, every-day kindergarten, second is technology improvements and third is to support the general levy.
For the kindergarten program, there are several options including adding more staff or replacing staff. There is a possibility the state will fund kindergarten, then the school district wouldn't have to worry about levying for the program.
Stender said he chose the kindergarten program because "we need to educate the young."
For technology, the amount levied depends on an amount the board would like to request.
"Machines are working now, but..." Stender said.
"And technology is always changing," added school board member Kathy Kallis.
For the general levy, there isn't any specific amount used for any one thing. The funds will be used for facility maintenance, fuel, etc.
The total levied would be between $500-$600 per pupil for five years. At $500 per pupil, it would raise $600,000 for the school district.
Stender said the district really couldn't wait to try for another referendum.
The few people in the audience supported the proposal, saying "it has a lot of merit," and that the board is "headed in the right direction this time."
Stender said if the district could pass the levy and get some money for technology, for instance, it would free up some funds in the general fund for other purposes.
At this point, another referendum meeting is not scheduled, but it may be in the future.

Trainspotting writer Irvine Welsh is working on the follow up to the 2012 movie Spring Breakers.
Spring Breakers, which starred James Franco, Selena Gomez and Vanessa Hudgens was written and directed by Harmony Korine.
According to Screen Daily Welsh is working on the sequel, Spring Breakers: The Second Coming in which the Spring Breakers will go to battle with an extreme militant Christian sect that attempts to convert them.
The film's distributor Wild Bunch co-chief Vincent Maraval said: "It's not a direct sequel although there are allusions to some of the characters in the original"
Jonus Akerlund is set to direct the film.

In Sacramento, a massive water bond is hammered out at the eleventh hour, leaving voters to decide its fate in November. Politicians avoided a raspberry the size of California, but here in North County, we're waiting for Poseidon to deliver water from the ocean, the rose of all roses. Meanwhile …
A rose — the (Nearly) Perfect Season award — to an extraordinary youth team that inspired its loyal fans with its grit and hustle on the diamond.
No, I'm not talking about the 12-year-old All-Stars from Encinitas.
Those beardless ballplayers enjoyed more than their fair share of adulation as they tried, but just failed, to play their way from San Bernardino to Williamsport, Pa.
Overlooked was another North County team, this one made up of 13- and 14-year-old girls.
The Escondido Girls Softball "Extreme" team won the 2014 Amateur Softball Association of America's Southern California State Championship earlier this summer, earning a berth in the ASA's version of the World Series.
Imagine this: 96 teams from California descended on Lancaster for three days of double-elimination play in 100-degree desert heat.
This wasn't another tournament. It was a war fought in a furnace.
The very first day Escondido lost and was sent to the losers bracket, an almost certain kiss of death.
The Extreme locked in and went on to win six games in a row and the title.
Commentary: More Logan Jenkins columns about our region
"Our girls battled," Chris Ice, the Extreme's coach, said in an Escondido Girls Softball League posting.
"They got dirty. They played exhausted and hurt. Six back-to-back games — eight hours straight — the last two against the same team. And they won. What more could anyone ask of these athletes?"
Escondido's title qualified them to play in the ASA Western Nationals in Medford, Oregon, the equivalent of the Little League World Series of girls fast-pitch softball.
The Extreme won a game in the Northwest but then lost by one run in the national single-elimination tournament.
Over the turbocharged all-star season, the Extreme went 29-7, winning four tournaments, including the big SoCal title.
The Extreme returned to Escondido and, so far as I know, the city hasn't declared a day in their honor, as Encinitas has done for the lionized boys.
These girls who will be going to high school next year deserve their day, too.
And by the powers of the press vested in me, today is it.
A raspberry — the Too Quick on the Draw award — to the writer of this column for handicapping North County's mayoral races a few days before the fields were set in granite.
For the most part, no last-minute additions (or scratches) upset my Racing Form. But there was one huge exception.
Hours before filing closed, former Encinitas Councilwoman (and embattled Mayor) Sheila Cameron emerged as a candidate for mayor.
No question, Cameron scrambles the forecast.
Two weeks ago, I had the first mayoral race in the city's history doped out this way:
Current (appointed) Mayor Kristin Gaspar has a lock on what you might call the Chamber of Commerce vote, the Republican-leaning pro-business bloc that in years past supported former Mayor James Bond.
The other candidate with better than a snowball's chance of winning is Councilman Tony Kranz, a left-leaning "quality-of-life" candidate whose challenge, I observed, was to woo and unite the progressive factions in Encinitas.
Ominously for him, Kranz became persona non grata in some circles when he and his two allies on the council — Teresa Barth and Lisa Shaffer — opposed Proposition A, a successful slow-growth initiative. Failing to march to Olivenhain's drumbeat over a private development added fuel to the hostility. Kranz's challenge was to win these votes back with the argument that he's better for them than Gaspar. That argument is now harder to make.
Cameron, as many of her supporters will concede, is a controversial (I'm trying to be diplomatic) figure. Two of her alienated allies on the council voted to strip her of her mayor's title in an unforgettably bitter confrontation in 1999.
Nevertheless, Cameron is going to get a hefty slice of votes because she represents to many a purity of ideology, which is to preserve Encinitas in sun-kissed amber. Significantly, former Encinitas Mayor Pam Slater-Price, a retired county supervisor who now lives in Del Mar, is supporting Cameron. That endorsement sends a strong signal.
It doesn't take a paid strategist to figure out the problem for Kranz. Votes on his left (and he needed all of them) will be drained by Cameron. Gaspar, on the other hand, should be helped by the splitting of votes. Her base would not vote for Kranz and certainly not Cameron.
It's conceivable that Cameron's supporters, who demonstrated their energy and organization during the Prop. A campaign, could turn out with such ferocity that she'll outpoll both Gaspar and Kranz in a plurality election. Maybe. But Cameron's baggage is going to be unpacked over the course of an election. Even those who admire her as a gadfly may feel she's a risk with the gavel in hand.
This much is certain. A straightforward green vs. gray race (with a fired-up minor candidate, the young Alex Fidel, throwing rhetorical bombs from all over the radical map) has been turned into a race between gray and two different shades of green.

AUSTIN - Attorney General Greg Abbott in one of two opinions released Friday said that prerecorded announcements used by some abortion clinics to tell women about the dangers of the procedure are probably insufficient under Texas' informed consent law.
In the other opinion, Abbott said a requirement that a prescribing doctor be present when a patient ingests an abortion pill isn't legally enforceable.
Rep. Frank Corte, an anti-abortion Republican from San Antonio, who requested both opinions in January, asked the attorney general whether the Texas Department of State Health Services had properly interpreted "a key provision" of informed consent law. Corte spokeswoman Kathi Seay said the majority of abortion clinics have prerecorded messages that give information to women who are seeking abortions, which was not the original intent of the law.
An abortion rights advocate said even in places where prerecorded messages were used, a doctor still met with all patients to discuss the procedure.
The law requires a woman seeking an abortion to be given written information about the facility, the doctor and the procedure and alternative pregnancy support.
Seay said that the opinion disallowing informational prerecorded messages will help women be adequately informed about their decision to have an abortion.
"We are delighted with the results of that request because that was the legislative intent," Seay said. "The abortion providers, rather than giving informed intent in person, do not allow a girl to have an interaction beforehand."
Kelly Hart, director of public affairs for Planned Parenthood of North Texas, said she was not aware of the opinion until Friday afternoon, and said that the organization's legal and medical team will analyze the opinion to see what it will mean for their practice.
She said that the prerecordings were used in an attempt to meet statutory requirements, which they do in addition to complying with medical ethics standards and the informed consent law. She said medical ethics require a doctor to sit down with a patient to answer her questions about the procedure, even though it is not a state requirement. "We are following what doctors everywhere do," Hart said. "The medical definition of informed consent is that [the patients] have the opportunity to learn."
Corte also sought clarification on the drug given by physicians to induce abortions, the RU-486 pill.
Seay said the attorney general's office seems to have interpreted the question as whether the woman had to take the pill in front of the doctor. Corte's intent, she said, was to find out whether the task of giving the pill to the patient could be delegated to anyone else.

Business School student says hypermarket outlets must expand to improve the retail sector
24 Apr 2013
BISNIS.COM, JAKARTA - A retail analyst remains optimistic about the prospects of the French hypermarket format in Indonesia's retail sector. This is due to the hypermarket's extensive range of products with additional offerings of fresh food and beverages all housed in a modern setting.
Georges Furone-Defforey, a Master of Commerce student at the University of Sydney Business School, who worked as consultant intern at PT Carrefour Indonesia, said the hypermarket businesses must continue to expand with additional outlets in order to improve the retail sector.
"Hypermarkets have a future in Indonesia, because they not only serve consumers' shopping needs, but also offer food and beverages sold in the stores," said Mr Furone-Defforey who visited the Bisnis Indonesia office on 3 April 2013.
Carrefour hypermarkets in Indonesia today, totalling 83 outlets, are expected to continue to grow and expand into a number of regions in the country.
According to Mr Furone-Defforey, while "hypermarket businesses continue to invest and plan, they should forecast whether they will be able to last for another 20 years".
"Investing in a hypermarket requires funds of millions of US dollars while the return of capital per year is only about three to four per cent," he added.
The leading hypermarket in Indonesia, Carrefour, has now changed ownership. The originally French hypermarket which was established with 100 per cent foreign capital is now wholly owned by CT Corp through Trans Retail, led by Indonesian businessman Chairul Tanjung.

Council approves hiring of Werner
Starting Sept. 14 there will be a new face at the head of Rosemount Police Department. Eric Werner will officially start on that day and then will be sworn in by the Rosemount City Council during their Sept. 18 meeting.
Werner, a Rosemount resident and a captain with the Burnsville Police Department, was chosen earlier this month for the position. The other finalists for the position were Rosemount Lt. Jewel Ericson and Apple Valley Captain Michael Marben.
On Tuesday the council approved the hiring of Werner and authorized his starting salary of $105,000.
Before voting on the resolution, council member Matt Kearney thanked staff and the volunteers who interviewed all the candidates for their time and service.
Werner has worked in law enforcement for 24 years, starting in a suburb of Chicago and moving to Perham before coming to Burnsville 13 years ago. He has been a captain since 2004 and has helped oversee a police department budget of approximately $12.5 million. Johnson pointed out after the interviews were over, that is larger than the city of Rosemount's roughly $11 million general fund budget.
Werner holds a bachelor of arts degree in organizational management from Concordia University and a master of arts degree in police leadership and administration from the University of St. Thomas.
After the Aug. 6 interview conducted with all three candidates Werner was the clear front runner. He was the top pick for four of the council members and tied with Ericson at the top of Kim Shoe-Corrigan's list.
During his interview, Werner said he expects he will be able to step into the job with some level of comfort. He already knows some of the department's officers, and he has served on committees with Ericson.

Dealer (as well as everyone else) says that no re-map is required for just the slip on's. In the spring though, I would like to get the SE intake, which would then require the stage 1 download. So my question is, is the stage 1 download the same thing as the ECM remap? part of it? Others are suggesting going with the XiED O2 sensor plug ins to richen the fuel mixture.....but getting conflicting info on whether those work with stock bikes, or with stage 1 and later......oh so confusing..

DANIELSVILLE - Coach Stephen Crouse has a peculiar dilemma.
His Madison County basketball team is well conditioned, but for the wrong sport. Twelve players came aboard following football season, and they are still "working the football out of their system."
As a result of the hangover, the Red Raiders have gotten off to a sluggish start at 2-6 overall and 1-3 in Region 8-AAAA North.
"It has been a little bit slow for them," Crouse said. "It took them awhile to get their basketball legs back. It's a different kind of conditioning.
"In football, they play hard one play at a time for 48 minutes," he continued. "Now, they're running up and down the basketball court for 32 minutes."
It's a problem high school coaches everywhere cope with.
Prep seasons run together and, consequently, players are left jumping from one sport to another with little or no preparation. Fall to winter means football to basketball.
"It's a good problem to have really," Crouse said. "Some coaches want their kids just playing basketball. Not me. I want my guys out there on the football field competing against the best athletes in the state."
Crouse knows it takes time to make all the adjustments.
"It takes a great athlete to play both sports," he said.
One of the athletes making that transition is junior Jarvis Long.
For the past four months, Long split his time between taking hits at running back and making them at defensive back. He misses it when basketball begins.
"You can hit folks in football, I like that," Long said. "I'm having to get used to not being able to hit again."
Teammate Josh Mattox, meanwhile, missed the feel for basketball.
"I don't touch a basketball during football season," said Mattox, who started at wide receiver. "It's been hard at first, not having played basketball in so long. You have to get used to shooting and the pace of the game; basketball is so much faster."
The dual-sport challenge is physical for Mattox and Long. For others, like Metric Shivers, it is mental.
"It's a hard transition; we hustle in football, but you've got to bring a different mentality to basketball," Shivers said. "Some of us still feel like football players. We're trying to get out of that football state of mind."
Typically, this situation does not occur at Madison County. In most years, football ends in the final regular-season game.
But not this season. This year, the Red Raiders posted a 7-4 overall record and made their first postseason in 22 years.
"It was kind of a new situation for us," Crouse said with a laugh. "Having to wait like that was strange. I'm in the gym working with three players while the (others) were in the playoffs."
Long said the basketball team is beginning to play more like its successful counterpart in the fall.
"We're getting comfortable with it now," he said. "It's starting to come together like in football."

The Chevrolet Corsica rolled into the streets in 1987 first as fleet cars of rental companies and other large businesses. Significant consumer acceptance met this front-wheel drive, mid-sized car when it was subsequently introduced into the mainstream market.
It emerged among the best selling cars in 1988 in the American market. Body styles of the Chevrolet Corsica consist of a four-door sedan and a five-door hatchback. This car was a mainstay in the Chevrolet lineup till 1996.
Estimated Price Range for Used Chevrolet Corsica: $2,000-$6,000
Estimated MPG for Chevrolet Corsica: 18 City/27 Hwy
Available Trims: base, LT
Below are Pre-Owned Chevrolet Corsica from Ebay and 3 of the top used-car sites on the web:

Intervening years from its launch saw several engine variations with a 2.8L LB6 V6 engine as standard during the 1987-1989 and 3.1L Gen III V6 in the 1994-1996 iterations. Transmissions available during the Chevrolet Corsica production years include five-speed manual, three-speed automatic and four-speed automatic. The Corsica is a kin to the Pontiac Tempest, both being built on the L-body platform. Corsica was produced in GM's facilities in Linden, New Jersey and in Wilmington, Delaware.

In their first of two matches over two days, Russia welcome Hussars Poland knowing that, in light of Argentina Condors' win yesterday, nothing less victory will do if they have aspirations of reaching this season's World Series of Boxing (WSB) quarter-finals. This Group A clash on Friday 8 March (16:00 local time) at the Konti Sport Recreation Center in St Petersburg will see Petr Khamukov, reigning National Champion Dmitriy Bivol and hard-man Vitaly Kudukhov all take centre stage for the home team.
With two defeats on his travels for Russia, 21-year-old Evgeny Averinwill be hoping for better luck on home soil when he battles Polish teenager Dawid Pawel Michelus who will be high on confidence after recording two successive wins in the competition. The away boxer will be slight favourite but this Bantamweight (50-54kg) bout is guaranteed to be highly entertaining.
Clever operator Konstantin Bogomazov will then lock horns with 24-year-old orthodox Pole Jacek Adam Wylezol at Lightweight (57-61kg) in an intriguing match-up. The young Russian has the skills to outbox an opponent yet to taste victory in WSB. Bogomazov will also be banking on the fervent support of the crowds to lift as he is well-know to thrive on a hot atmosphere.
After a solid win away in week six, Middleweight (68-73kg) Khamukov will make his first outing at home versus Polish 23-year-old Dawid Pac. With his rival having suffered three defeats on the trot, the orthodox Russian should be too quick and powerful and is odds on for his second win of the campaign.
Bivol is set for one tough afternoon against the Hussars' hard Ukrainian Serhiy Radchenko at Light Heavyweight (80-85kg) with his opponent a hard-hitting no-nonsense competitor. This should be an extremely close contest between two proven fighters. The 22-year-old Russian will be eager to impress on his home turf but will have to be weary of the explosiveness of his rival if he is to claim the win.
At Heavyweight (91+kg), Kudukhov will be gunning for victory when he faces the Hussars' Yan Sudzilouski from Belorussia after having only been deployed on the road. The two met in week two with the Russian hard man edging it by split decision. It was riveting contest and the fans in the arena will be salivating at the prospect of seeing this two once again in action.
Russia then face Argentina Condors on Saturday. Poland need the victory if they want to ensure a third place finish in the group.

Samsung has already launched the LTE-A version of the Samsung Galaxy S5 in South Korea, but it seems the Korean OEM is going to launch another variant of the flagship device for Singapore. Not too long ago, SingTel is prepping up to launch the world's first commercial 300mbps LTE Advanced network, along with the availability of the Samsung Galaxy S5 4G+. The smartphone will utilize the fast connection speeds, and will go on sale on August 23rd, the same day when the 4G+ network will be available.
Mr Tay Yeow Lian, SingTel's Managing Director of Networks, said: "From streaming videos to web surfing and uploading selfies, customers are doing more with their smartphones. With this launch, SingTel customers will be the first in the world to enjoy the benefits of the fastest phone on the fastest network. We are constantly enhancing our networks with the latest technologies to provide our customers with the best possible experience for today's increasingly bandwidth-hungry applications," he said.
The new smartphone also differs a little bit from the standard Galaxy S5, that is, it comes with a faster Snapdragon 805 chipset on board. Apart from that, we're looking at the same Samsung Galaxy S5 which launched in the rest of the world. There's a 5.1-inch display sporting a resolution of 1920 x 1080 pixels, with 2GB of RAM and 16GB storage, coupled with a microSD card slot.
Other features include 16MP camera for photos and videos, a 2MP front-facing camera, 2,600 mAh battery and runs Android 4.4 KitKat as its operating system out of the box. As far as the pricing is concerned, the carrier is offering various plans starting from S$0 to S$688.
"Samsung is proud to unveil the first 4G LTE-Advanced smart phones in Singapore. We recognise that consumers aspire to do more, and what matters most to them is technology that helps them live the lifestyle they desire and gives them the quickest access to their apps and social networks. With devices like the Samsung GALAXY S5 4G+, consumers will be at the forefront of technology – and be able to use a smart phone that pairs powerful hardware with the fastest download speeds," said Ms Irene Ng, Vice President, Regional Marketing, Samsung Asia Pte Ltd."
The carrier also announced they'll offer the Samsung Galaxy Alpha 4G+ in September, but didn't reveal any details about its pricing, or if it will come with a different set of specifications than the standard model. However, rest assured that SingTel will offer the handset to its users.

SAN JOSE (KCBS) – U.S. Attorney General Eric Holder met Friday with San Jose's mayor and other city officials to learn about the city's strategy for preventing gang violence. He also toured the San Jose Job Corps Center on East Hills Drive, getting to know the teenagers and young adults who live at the job training facility.
"This for me has been eye opening," he said.
KCBS' Betsy Gebhart Reports:
One of the students, 19-year-old Angel, described trying to set a positive example for two younger brothers, ages 12 and 8, who have already seen the allure of the gang lifestyle.
"Before, I was setting an example for my brothers to be in the gang lifestyle, making them think it was OK to do what they're doing," he said. "But I'm trying to pull them out of that. I'm trying to show them better examples."
San Jose's holistic approach to gang violence prevention, trying to address all of the issues a young person must confront, could offer a model for programs in other cities, Holder said.

That was too close for comfort. The Indiana Pacers had a 9-point lead at the half, which they maintained heading into the final quarter before stretching the gap to as much as 16. Then complacency set in and the Cavs, led by Dion Waiters, started storming back. The stagnant and turnover-prone Pacers went without a field goal for more than five minutes as the Cavs came back within a single point.
Then, after a tough jumper by Mr Reliable, David West, the Pacers started missing free throws. Roy Hibbert went to the line twice and split both times, giving the Cavs the opportunity to send the game into overtime with a three. Fortunately for the Pacers, Earl Clark steps out of bounds on the inbounds play, and David West made Pacers fans sweat a little more by missing his first three throw before finally icing the game with the second.
It wasn't a great night for the Pacers but they still managed to get the win. Paul George led the team with 16 points, 5 rebounds and 6 assists, which Hibbert had 15 points and 6 rebounds. David West had 11 and Lance Stephenson and Danny Granger had 10 apiece.
Granger's biggest contribution was his crunch time defense which forced Clark to step out of bounds. He shot just 4-12, but this was the 4th consecutive game in which he has gone to double figures, and the game before that he had 8 points. His return to form has been much quicker than I anticipated and currently averages 8.7 points and 3.3 rebounds in 21 minutes per game. He is just shooting 36.5% from the field and 37.5% from three, though he has hit 93.3% of his free throws. What is the ceiling for the new DG33? 10 points per game off the bench? 12? 15? He's never been a high percentage shooter, but can he break 40% from the field? I have no idea, and that's what makes this Pacers team so intriguing. Anything he can give them will be a huge lift, especially come playoff time.
Anyway, this game was a lesson well learned for the Pacers, who showed that they are capable of closing out opponents when necessary but also prone to complacency against weaker teams. The Cavs were missing Kyrie Irving again (he injured his knee the last time these two teams met) and the Pacers perhaps did not respect them enough to take them seriously. Big mistake, and if it weren't for some luck, they might have paid for it dearly, especially as Miami eked out its own win against the streaking Raptors.
With the win, the Pacers extend their league-best record to 27-6 for the season and improve their iffy record on the second night of a back-to-back to 5-4. More importantly, they have maintained their 1.5 game lead over the Heat. They'll next play the Raptors on Tuesday at home in the hope of avenging last week's loss in Toronto. With the way the Raptors have been playing lately the Pacers better be ready.

The server that my blog (domain/site/whatever) is hosted on had some issues today! I will tell you that the prompt response from TotalChoice Hosting, whom I use, was amazing. They rebooted the server, but it was still not allowing me to make any edits, to anything. I couldn't do anything with FTP. So, I let them know. They had to do an emergency data system check. They definitely fixed it, because I was able to clean up my account (getting rid of things I don't need any longer) and I was able to upload again! YAY!
I really do love me some TotalChoice Hosting. I have never had an issue with them. For $8.95, I have one of the cheapest plans, and have never come close to the data limits or the bandwidth limits! It's amazing, and wonderful.
I'm so annoyed, though, with my phone. I wish I could get as good of customer service from HTC or AT&T. Ugh. Doing some googling, my issue with the phone completely shutting itself off when I take a picture? It's either an issue with Gingerbread, or it's with the Inspire. It's ridiculous though. I can't wait to get my hands on the Galaxy SIII or the S4, depending on how much they cost. I'd rather spend $100 for two phones and not $400 for them. I think it's so insane to have to spend $199.99 for a new phone, when you have to shell out the required data plan, and whatnot as well for it. Ugh!

Longton Snooker Hall is undoubtedly, in my opinion, one of the most superlative establishments I have had the pleasure of visiting in recent years. It offers acceptable quality tables for snooker (upstairs) and pool (downstairs) which is what can be expected for the moderately inexpensive price we pay. It offers an array of food and drink products, with bars both upstairs and downstairs, catering for each and every eager snooker/pool player to walk through those trusted doors. At this point I must say that a pint of the finest at Longton Snooker Hall is straightforwardly the most exquisite ale I have ever had the pleasure of devouring. It's a must!! In addition, the staff are polite and easy to get along with, adding to the already vibrant atmosphere. It is quite simply one of the best places for not only me and my friends to visit when in need of something to do, but also people at any age willing to try their hand snooker/pool...highly recommended from me!!

RVP, De Gea & Ferdinand welcome Juan Mata to Manchester United on Twitter
This is how modern social media works…
Juan Mata joins Manchester United from Chelsea, thereby becoming the biggest mover in the January 2014 transfer window, and his new team mates welcome him to Old Trafford on Twitter.
Presumably, Robin van Persie, David De Gea and Rio Ferdinand will all welcome Mata to Manchester United in person, but for now it will have to do online.
As it stands, Juan Mata has not Tweeted since January 20, 2014 and his first Tweet as a Manchester United player is eagerly awaited.
Most intriguing of all, considering David De Gea did not have a fellow Spaniard at Manchester United to bounce around with, is the Tweet from the custodian taking the mickey a little!
Welcome to my amigo @juanmata10 ! Hoping you enjoy ya time here and help continue the success at this club #mufc

The Gay & Lesbian Alliance Against Defamation (GLAAD) wants Perez Hilton to give an official apology for the slur he used against Will.I.Am during their recent altercation in Toronto.
In a statement released to TMZ, GLAAD said that Hilton, who is openly gay, should say he's sorry for calling Will.I.Am a "f***ing f****t" during their dramatic scuffle. "We have reached out to Hilton and asked him to apologize for promoting this anti-gay slur, and we would ask media outlets to avoid repetition of the slur in their coverage of this story."
The statement continues:
For someone in our own community to use it to attack another person by saying that it is, quote, "The worst possible thing that thug would ever want to hear," is incredibly dangerous. It legitimizes use of a slur that is often linked to violence against our community. And it sends a message that it is OK to attempt to dehumanize people by exploiting anti-gay attitudes.
It's no surprise that Perez has fired back at GLAAD, asking for an apology himself:
I am saddened GLAAD chose to victimize me further by criticizing me for how I non-violently dealt with a very scary situation that, unfortunately, turned violent. While I doubt I will get an apology from GLAAD, nor do I expect one, I would just hope people know how difficult it is to intellectualize a situation and think rationally when a thug disguised as a musician is screaming at your face and intimidating you. I am just very fortunate and grateful that nothing more serious happened to me.
I could get pissed and rant about how much of an egotistical d*ck this guy is, but I'm not gonna give him the pleasure.

Try to find information about Kobalt tools on the web and you will be surprized at how few reviews there are concerning this brand of tools.
The first thing you notice about Kobalt sockets is the design. The six point Kobalt socket is designed to use (or put pressure) on the flats of the nut it is turning so as not to round of the corners. This concept is not solely employed by Kobalt tools. It is used by many other professional grade tool brands as well.

Tagged: "menus font colors"
October 19, 2011 at 9:04 pm #6491
how can this be done, to bad it is not a simple feature in admin panel….thanks for helpOctober 20, 2011 at 12:31 am #54366
spent hours searching all of "support" and it looks like many folks are struggling with changing menu colors and font size of menu easily, in recent themes…Flashlight is great theme, menus font color issue making me feel real stupid, because I coulda had this site done today, tried to adjust color here but it never worked, I am a real coding beginner: Thanks for any advice
main_menu .menu li a strong {
cursor: pointer;
text-transform: uppercase;
}October 20, 2011 at 1:05 am #54367
in your css folder find dark-skin.css
Here you can look for
.main_menu .menu a {
border-bottom: 1px solid #343434;
color: #333333;
.main_menu .menu li a span {
color: #999999;
#top .main_menu .menu ul li a {
border-bottom: 1px solid #343434;
color: #888888;
#top .main_menu .menu ul li a:hover {
color: #555555;
You can change the hex color codes in there to adjust the colors. I believe you're mainly searching for the first one ( color: #333333; ), if you'd like to make it pink you'd make it : color: #ff0099; and so on.
The size can be adjusted by adding the following right below the color property.
font-size: 20px;
So it would become:
.main_menu .menu a {
border-bottom: 1px solid #343434;
color: #ff0099;
}October 20, 2011 at 1:10 am #54368
where is that CSS folder located exactly, and could it be pasted in as a snippet, and how…Thanks againOctober 20, 2011 at 2:14 am #54369
In the theme folder you've uploaded (flashlight) there is another folder called "css", in there you'll find dark-skin.css.
In that dark-skin.css file you should look for the first bit of code I pasted. You can then replace
.main_menu .menu a {
border-bottom: 1px solid #343434;
color: #333333;
}by.main_menu .menu a {
border-bottom: 1px solid #343434;
color: #ff0099;
This would give you a pink menu item with a font-size of 20px. The pieces of code after that part (which I also pasted above) also contain color values of other menu-related colors which you can also edit using the hex color codes I linked in my previous post.
It is important you edit the file you've uploaded on your server – you can also edit the file that isn't online and then overwrite the online file with your newly edited file.October 20, 2011 at 1:13 pm #54370
thanks Chris, I was able to get menu copy to show "white", but couldn't get anything to work on the hover effect and color change for the hover?…also where does "Home" page reside, is it a default?….thanksOctober 23, 2011 at 12:42 am #54371
as for your Home item you can edit this in your Dashboard under Appearance > Menus.
I've also found it's extremely hard to style the headings when using custom fonts for Heading Font, it's best to go for no custom font, the styling should then work without problems.
The topic 'changing colors/size in menu type?' is closed to new replies.

Cyber security blogger and malware researcher Dancho Danchev's whereabouts have been unknown since September of 2010. The details surrounding Danchev's sudden disappearance are unclear to say the least, and one of his colleagues, Ryan Naraine, is asking for any information that could help shed light on the mystery.
Naraine and other colleagues have made several attempts to contact Danchev but to no avail. Phone calls and snail mail attempts to reach the Bulgarian malware researcher have been fruitless. They even contacted Bulgaria's National Computer Security Incidents Response Team (known as CERT) but didn't learn anything of value.
In the past couple of months, though, they finally received some tips. In December, one person sent a mysterious message saying that Danchev was "alive, but he's in a lot of trouble." And more recently, a trusted member of the malware security community sent them a letter that Danchev had sent on September 9th of 2010. In the letter, Danchev sounds worried about his safety but feels that the recipient of his letter is trustworthy and "someone who understands the big picture of cyber crime and cyber espionage."
As someone who was dedicated to the fight against malware and cybercrime, Danchev was evidently aware of the dangers of that realm. Regardless, he regularly updated his blog with news about malware, cybercrime, and the best ways to protect personal computers. His personal blog was last updated on September 11, 2010.
The latest development in the Danchev case is that he is alive and currently hospitalized. A Bulgarian online publication called Dnevnik.org claims that he's "stabilized and will soon be discharged.
Hopefully, he's ok and will surface very soon. Either way, this episode shows just how serious malware and cybercrime can be.

HealthWACH - Removing ribs for pain relief
Thu, 16 Jan 2014 03:00:00 GMT —
Thoracic outlet syndrome (TOS) is a group of disorders that occur when nerves or blood vessels become compressed between the collarbone and the first rib (thoracic outlet). This may cause pain in the shoulders and neck and numbness in your fingers. Causes of TOS include physical trauma from a car accident, repetivie injuries from job or sports-related activities, pregnancy, and certain anatomical defects (like having an extra rib). If a vein happens to become compressed, the arm may become swollen and will be sensitive to the cold. This is more common in women between ages 20-50. TYPES: There are three types of TOS:
- Vascular thoracic outlet syndrome: This type occurs when one or more of the veins or arteries under the collarbone (clavicle) are compressed.
- Neurogenic (neurological) thoracic outlet syndrome: This form of TOS is characterized by compression of the brachial plexus, a network of nerves that come from the spinal cord and control muscle movements and sensation in the should, hand, and arm.
- Nonspecific-type thoracic outlet syndrome: This type is also called disputed thoracic outlet syndrome. Some doctors don't believe it exists, while others say it's a common disorder. People with this form of TOS have chronic pain in the area of the thoracic outlet that worsens with activity.
In some cases, physical therapy can be the best form of treatment for thoracic outlet syndrome patients. This therapy will strengthen the shoulder muscles to enhance the range of motion. Physical therapy may also help your posture and take the pressure off of your nerves and blood vessels. Minimally invasive surgery can help certain patients with neurogenic thoracic outlet syndrome. In a study published in Journal of Vascular Surgery, researchers studied 200 patients who were referred to the hospital for disabling neurogenic thoracic outlet syndrome from February 2008 to October 2011. Fifty-seven patients underwent pectoralis minor tenotomy (PMT). The remaining 143 patients had supraclavicular decompression combined with PMT (SCD+PMT). In both groups, the most common symptoms were pain in the arms, neck, and shoulders, as well as pain, weakness, and paresthesia of the hands. After surgery, 163 of the 200 patients (82%) reported significant and progressive improvement at the 3-month follow-up, including 43 of the patients who underwent isolated PMT (75%) and 120 who underwent the combined procedure (84%).
