Honda's third-generation Integra coupe package of the 1990s was reasonably typical of the Japanese two-door theme.
Like the Toyota Celica and the Integra's own stablemate, the Prelude, the idea of offering a smart looking, four-cylinder personal coupe was a great way of tapping into a market populated by younger buyers with plenty of money.
And like the main competition, the Integra was typical of the breed in terms of its performance and handling. But that changed in 1999 with a model called the Type R.
After generations of cars from a variety of manufacturers that were more style than substance, the Type R was a four-wheeled revelation.
Not only did it have true sporting ability, it also possessed some real attitude, although the rear spoiler and dark alloy wheels meant it didn't really look terribly different to the more pedestrian Integras.
But when settled into a pair of proper racing bucket seats, behind a smaller, sports steering wheel you began to notice the lengths Honda had gone to improve the car's performance: an alloy gear-knob and aluminium panels were there to improve power-to-weight ratio.
A casualty in the name of weight saving was the ditching of much of the car's sound-deadening material, making the Type R a rowdy little customer. But, if anything, the extra racket inside the car only added to the experience. True, a freeway trip from Melbourne to Sydney probably would have left you bleeding from the ears, but there were always the more pedestrian versions of the car for such endeavours.
The secret to the Type R's raw appeal was a rave-party of an engine, which measured just 1.8 litres but used Honda's clever VTEC arrangement. It was capable of cranking out a rousing 141 kW of power. Of course, it needed to be revved to about 8000 rpm to achieve this feat, but that was really just part of the fun. And when you did whip it mercilessly, it returned the input with a cracking soundtrack and a distinct hike in acceleration as the tachometer needle passed 5800 rpm.
Honda's decision to fit the Type R with a five-speed manual gearbox also worked. An automatic just wouldn't have felt right, nor would it have performed anywhere near as well. With short, closely bunched ratios for maximum acceleration at the expense of highway cruising ability (the engine was turning 3500 rpm at 100 km/h) it was a delightful shifter with a slick, tight, short-throw action.
A clever differential meant that even though the Type R stuck with the basic Integra's front-wheel-drive, it delivered a much higher level of front-end grip. In turn, that made it tremendous fun to shove into corners, since it was reluctant to understeer - or push its nose wide - even at race-track velocities.
Of course, lots of grip is only part of a winning combination and the Type R managed to deliver the whole enchilada by also offering high levels of feel and feedback. The VTEC engine erupted in a torrent of both decibels and kilowatts, the suspension mounts seemed to be right under the driver's seat and the gearshift was one of those think-it-into-the-next-gear jobs.
There are now a couple of things to consider carefully before deciding whether the original Integra Type R is for you. The first is the possibility that you will be buying a car that has been thrashed for most of its life.
Honda's engineering and quality materials mean that this isn't necessarily the end of the world but a Type R without the odd squeak and rattle by now would be rare. The highly strung engine has been known to burn a little oil, so, again, you need to be the type of owner who will take the time to dip the oil each Saturday and make sure it's topped up.
But, perhaps most importantly, you need to be absolutely sure that you aren't really in the market for a nice little car. Because if you are, although it looks great, the rabid little Honda is most definitely not for you.
What to pay
Never a cheap car given its size and values have held up well on the back of its reputation for huge giggles. About $20,000 to own one; $25,000 buys one with service history and a dealer warranty.
The competition
Not much else comes close to the Type R's combination of visceral thrills and actual ability. A Subaru WRX gets the performance right but is a bit more clinical, while things such as Nissan's 200SX provide a similar level of involvement but can be prohibitively expensive to insure thanks to their turbocharged engines and reputation for being owned by crash-happy drivers.

Schaub, after hearing how sugar negatively affected health, decided to place herself and her family on a sugar free regime for one year. Everything was cut that had an added sweetener, "be it table sugar, honey, molasses, maple syrup, agave or fruit juice. We also excluded anything made with fake sugar or sugar alcohols. Unless the sweetness was attached to its original source (e.g., a piece of fruit), we didn't eat it."
One year later - Firstly, it had been the family's rule that, once a month, a sugar-containing dessert was allowed. However, gradually, these dessert highlights became less enjoyable. The culmination was the dessert for the husband's birthday (multi layered banana cream pie). Ms Schaub not only could not finish the dessert but her teeth hurt and her heart began to race, forcing her to lie down.
On the plus side of the diet, Ms Schaub found that both herself and her family had more energy, felt stronger, had far fewer days ill, and recovery swift if illness did strike. Ms Schaub now maintains a mostly sugar free diet and the benefits have remained in place.The full article can be read here

Black pepper also increases the bioavailability of just about all other foods -- herbs and other compounds included. Green tea, for instance, is recognized as an abundant source of epigallocatechin-3-gallate (EGCG), a catechin polyphenol shown to boost metabolism and protect against cancer. Research shows that when EGCG is administered in combination with piperine, it increases the absorption of EGCG and helped it stay in the bloodstream longer. If the idea of sprinkling black pepper in your tea isn't appealing, TIME suggests:7 "Use the pair to soak meat or seafood. 'Brewed tea with garlic, ginger, and black pepper makes a perfect marinade,' [Cynthia] Sass [RD, MPH] says."

Bringing students together from both traditions through the medium of sport
On Tuesday, 26th November, local residents and community representatives joined with children from St Columbans Primary School and Belleek Primary School in Co. Fermanagh to celebrate the achievements of participants in the Goal for Peace project. At the event, the pupils were presented with special medals and football kits in recognition of their participation in the project, which integrates children from schools and football clubs from both traditions through the medium of sport, primarily soccer.
Funded by the International Fund for Ireland and Leitrim County Council, Goal for Peace consists of a Schools Involvement strand and a Clubs Involvement strand with the aim of providing an opportunity for children and adults from both traditions to work together by learning sports skills, peace building games and teamwork. The three-year project has seen almost 200 children take part from ten schools – eight from Leitrim and two from Fermanagh (Columbans Primary School and Belleek Primary School).
The project was designed to enhance cross community dialogue and generate cross border understanding and respect, utilising sport as a medium to promote reconciliation among young people from counties Leitrim and Fermanagh. The project has two strands 'the schools programme' and the 'soccer club involvement programme'. This is the third year of the 'Goal for Peace' project, since the project's inception the schools and clubs involved have worked closely together to encourage a high level of interaction among children from both traditions. By providing a safe and fun setting for children to mix with each other, the project has been a great success in helping to bring local children together who might not have interacted before.
Gordon Burke, 'Goal For Peace' Coordinator, said: "The roll out of the Goal for Peace project has been extremely successful over the past three years. Since the project's commencement the ten schools participating on the project have formed strong links which have helped to encourage a high level of interaction among children from both traditions. The project is an excellent example of how sport can be successfully used as an effective instrument to help break down traditional barriers".
David Graham, Board Member of the International Fund for Ireland said: "The Fund is committed to the long-term task of breaking down traditional barriers in order to help build positive relations between cross border communities and counties, that is why we are proud to be associated with this 'Goal for Peace' project. We believe that by helping to develop closer links between both traditions, the project will have a very positive impact for reconciliation for the future. By bringing children from both traditions together in a creative and fun environment, this project has been tremendously successful in fostering greater interaction among pupils in Leitrim and Fermanagh. "
David Graham also expressed a collective thanks to the international donors who have supported the work of the International Fund for Ireland for more than twenty-five years: namely, the United States of America, the European Union, Canada, Australia and New Zealand.

The Stros logged ten hits and walked three times with Evan Gattis driving in two runswith Chris Carter, Hank Conger and Jake Marisnick knocking in runs and scoring. The Astros turn to left hander Dallas Keuchel to the bump looking for his 18th win Wednesday. Keuchel has been outstanding in 2015 with a 17-7 record with a 2.22 ERA in 29 starts.
USA TODAY Sports
The Texas Rangers are trying to catch the Astros in the American League West and they have been playing well. The Rangers notched their 4th win in five contests following Tuesday's victory. Starter Derek Holland was hit hard with all five runs given up on ten hits through 5.2 innings for a no decision while four relievers putting up zeros. The Rangers racked up 14 hits and walked three times with Adrian Beltre going 4-5 with two RBI's and a run while Prince Fielder was 3-4 with an RBI and a pair of runs. Lefty Martin Perez draws the start against the Astros in the final game of their series on Wednesday night. Overall Perez has posted a 2-5 record with a 5.43 ERA and a 1.50 WHIP over ten starts.
The under is 20-8-3 in Houston's last 31 road games while the Astros are 15-37 in their last 52 road games while the over is 9-3 in Keuchel's last 12 Wednesday starts. The under is 6-1-1 in Texas last 8 home games and is 19-6-3 in their last 28 overall while going 19-6-3 in their last 28 on grass. The under is 7-2-1 in the last 10 meetings in Texas and Houston are 15-37 in the last 52 meetings in Texas. I don't like how Houston is playing but I'll back their ace..

Designer Profile: Fernando's Design
April 29, 2010
Designer Profile
Jude Fernando – Philippines
99designs handle: Fernando's design
Projects entered: 126
Projects won: 29
How did you get started in web design?
I got my start in design a long time ago, 1995 to be exact. It was not in web design, but in Architectural design. Yes, that was my foundation and my five years in architecture school developed my aesthetic sensibilities.
However, architectural practice in the real world didn't work out for me. It was not my cup of tea – I discovered that creativity in the world of cement and steel was limited by so many factors. I started looking into other creative outlets such as traditional art and sculpture. All this was until the day I discovered Photoshop…
I was so amazed by the capabilities of the software, that I started spending all my waking hours messing around with it. I tried my hand at some personal websites for friends and poster designs for local events. I realized that this was something I could get good at after much encouragement and appreciation from my friends, family and early clients. This was also the time when websites were not cool and pretty to look at and there was definitely no web2.0 and glossy, shiny interfaces! There was and is so much potential on the web!
How do you get your inspiration?
My initial inspiration is always the client. A good brief inspires me and gets me thinking about the possibilities. I also spend some time every single day just browsing the web, looking at great designs, seeing the work of other designers. The more you appreciate the work of others the more you grow in your own work. Most of my ideas come to me at night – when the world is asleep. A calm mind and quiet surroundings inspire a lot of thought. I never rush into a design.
What led you to start using 99designs.com?
Unlike many here, I discovered 99designs quite late. I was randomly browsing through a popular web design forum when I came across a discussion about contests. The whole concept of crowdsourcing was new to me and I was curious enough about 99designs to give it a try.
I was hooked immediately – each and every contest gave me a rush but I was also depressed when I didn't win. I am sure all of you designers here have felt the same. After 126 contests its still a rush and I have learned to deal with losing :)
99designs has been invaluable in providing me with a lot more opportunity than what I had before. Every contest is a learning experience and I have built relationships with more than a few regular clients though this site. I have improved a lot since I first started here – much of which is due to the concept of this site. Being able to compare ones work with the work of other designers gives you great insight into what you need to improve on. Without this constant interaction with other designers through the contest environment, I would still be stuck where I was a year ago.
What are three things designers can do to have success at 99designs?
- Understand the brief. This is the the most important aspect of any contest, yet is more often than not the most overlooked. I don't mean just read the brief, but actually understand what the contest holder wants. Read it carefully, take the time, don't rush things.
- Think like the client. Put yourself in the clients position and think about what you would want if you were the client. What would be most important to you? Sometimes I even think about where the client lives and the acceptable current design practices in that country or that city. For example Scandinavia has a minimalist, functional and ultra modern design language, whereas Miami beach is about being eclectic, colorful and a little over the top.
- Offer something unique with your entry. Everyone likes to be surprised and clients remember unique designs. If two designs follow the brief to the letter and both designs have excellent technique, it's likely the design that offers something unique or something extra will win. Remember, think like the client. Every client wants their website to standout from the crowd.
What do you love most about being a designer?
Creative freedom is what I love the most. Each new project is a creative outlet and a challenge in itself. Each project brings something different. Not having to do the same thing every day for years is what I love most about being a designer.
One of the most common requests we get from clients at 99designs is the ability to choose multiple winning designs – well now you can.
To choose more than one design simply:
- Identify the designs you want to award
- Go to your contest page
- Follow the procedure for selecting a winner for EACH design separately
The first design will be awarded with the money you already prepaid to set up the project.
Each additional design will require additional payment equal to the full prize plus the 15% handling fee.
There is no limit to how many designs you can award!

Peat Spade Inn
I love this pub with rooms, run by a former Hotel du Vin chef, Lucy Townsend, in the Test Valley, within easy reach of the M3. Locals slide in for a pint at the bar (with a basket of glossy magazines for fishing widows), which merges comfortably with the restaurant tables. The food is hearty, soothing, English-pub-with-a-flourish: black-pudding scotch egg with apple puree and bacon; potted Dorset crab and cucumber chutney; free-range chicken and mushroom pie. There are seven simple bedrooms, decorated in warm colours, in two annexes.
Peat Spade Inn: Longstock, Hampshire (01264 810612; www.peatspadeinn.co.uk). Doubles from £120. Dinner for two about £60 without wine

WAUKEGAN, Ill. - A dispute between Ronald Stolberg and his wife Rachael at their Vernon Hills, Ill. home turned deadly June 7, when police say Stolberg became enraged after his wife repeatedly woke him up.
The coroner says Rachel died of asphyxiation. The indictment says Stolberg "forcibly held and restrained [his wife] on the ground with his body, thereby causing" her death, CBS station WBBM reports.
Stolberg denied that he had anything to do with his wife's death. He called police at 5:21 p.m. and reported that he found her body after returning home from work.
He is currently at Lake County Jail on a $3 million bond.
The Lake County News-Sun reports that Stolberg appeared in court last week, not to prove his innocence, but over complaints about jail food. His attorney asked that Stolberg be given, "healthy food and more milk," because he is a vegetarian.
On June 19 Stolberg apparently flooded his cell with toilet water. He was asked to stop and clean it up, he refused and was then put on lockdown, according to paper
He is scheduled for arraignment Tuesday. If Stolberg is convicted he faces between 20 and 60 years in prison.

Asymptotic Properties of Some Confidence Interval Estimators for Simulation Output
The classical confidence interval estimator commonly used in simulation is compared with four new estimators based on standardization of a time series presented in a previous paper. These new interval estimators are shown to have asymptotic properties that strictly dominate the classical estimator when used with data from independent simulation replications or means of batched observations from a single simulation run. Two of the new estimators also can be used with a single unbatched replication of a simulation program, a situation where the classical estimator is not defined.

Denis Boyles tells the amazing story of this atlas of human brilliance, a massive 29-volume, 44 million word anthology of some of the best essays written in English. It is the story of how Horace Everett Hooper - a volatile, self-assured, impulsive, and optimistic American, an autodidact and natural-born salesman - got into the book business at age 16, moved to the Western frontier and on to Chicago, and became hugely successful. With a brilliant adman named Henry Haxton as his partner, he went about buying publishing rights to the Encyclopedia Britannica, a work incredibly distinguished by entries from Charles Darwin, Thomas Malthus, Sir Walter Scott, David Ricardo, William Hazlitt, and John Locke (some, like Benjamin Franklin's entry on electricity, extending back to the first edition published in Edinburgh in 1768). Incredibly distinguished, but selling only 600 copies a year in Britain in its ninth edition, the Encyclopedia Britannica was on the brink of financial collapse.
Hooper and Haxton, with superb business skill and a respect for authority and style shared by their fascinating English colleagues, Hugh Chisholm and Janet Hogarth, turned things completely around, selling hundreds of thousands of copies of EB11 in Britain and America while adding writers of entries such as Jessie Weston, Matthew Arnold, Algernon Charles Swinburne, Robert Louis Stevenson, John Muir, Lord Macaulay, T. H. Huxley, G. K. Chesterton, Edmund Husserl, Alfred North Whithead, Bertrand Russell, Edmund Gosse, and W. M. Rossetti, among others.
Denis Boyles tells a wonderful story of a business enterprise infused by a truly democratic desire to spread knowledge to the widest audience possible.

Imagine a future in which consciousness can be exchanged between bodies and the wealthy old can pay the young to die for them. Raymond Mettler, a man whose unrelenting terror of dying prevents him from living, is given just such a shot at immortality. Marcus Takana, a desperately poor young man accepts a future contract for Ray's mind to take over his body upon Ray's death in exchange for fabulous wealth, enduring youth, and unprecedented knowledge. Both men guard the secret of their grim pact in a world at the brink of environmental catastrophe because of a genetics experiment gone horribly wrong.

'SNL' Spoofs 'Karate Kid' With John Cena – WATCH VIDEO
"SNL" spoofed The Karate with this week's host John Cena. Watch video of the "Saturday Night Live" parody "Karate Teen" below.
In the "SNL" sketch, Cena plays "Karate Teen" Sammy Knox, who taunts his opponent Jeffy LaHart by calling him a "dork" and a "dweeb" after pounding him to the mat. But with his trainer's inspiration, LaHart, who is supposed to be Ralph Macchio's character Daniel LaRusso, gets back up and seems like he's mentally in a space to defeat the bullying Knox. That is until Cena's character, who's parodying William Zabka's "Johnny" from The Karate Kid, connects with a shot to his opponent's stomach and literally knocks him out of his pants and through four walls.
LaHart then miraculously crawls back into the ring and says, "Knox, is that all you got?" "Do you have a death wish, dork?" replies Knox. Meanwhile, LaHart's trainer motions to him to not fight Knox anymore, but he does. "When a warrior gets knocked down," begins LaHart, right as Knox punches him through his fifth wall.
As Gossip Cop reported, this is the first time Cena has been the host of "Saturday Night Live." And even though he's mostly known for being a wrestler, Cena has showed off his comedy chops on "Parks & Recreation," as well as in the films Sisters and Trainwreck. Check out the video below of Cena and "SNL" spoofing The Karate Kid in the "Karate Teen."

Determining whether the moon is waxing or waning can tell you a lot about what phase it's in, how the tides will move, and where the moon is in relation to the Earth and the sun. It's also helpful to know where the moon rises and sets during its different phases, in case you want to see it on a particular night. A waxing moon is in the process of increasing how much of it is lit (as observed night to night). i.e., it's headed toward being a full moon. Waning is the opposite. There are a couple ways to figure out whether the moon is waxing or waning. Although the details are slightly different depending on where you are in the world, the bulk of the method is the same.
Part One of Three:
Understanding the Phases of the MoonEdit
1Learn the names of the phases. The moon revolves around the Earth, and as it does, we see different angles of the moon's illuminated surface. The moon doesn't create its own light, but rather shines when it reflects the sun's light. [1] As the moon transitions from new to full and back to new again, it goes through several phases, marked by its recognizable crescent and gibbous ("bulging") shapes, which are created by the moon's own shadow.[2] The moon phases are:
- New moon
- Waxing crescent
- First quarter
- Waxing gibbous
- Full moon
- Waning Gibbous
- Third quarter
- Waning crescent
- New moon[3]
2Learn what the phases mean. The moon travels the same path around the Earth every month, so it goes through the same monthly phases. The phases exist because from our perspective on Earth, we observe the illuminated portion of the moon differently as it makes its way around us. Remember that half the moon is always illuminated by the sun: it's our vantage point on Earth that changes and determines what phase we see.[4]
- During the new moon, the moon is between the Earth and the sun, and is therefore not illuminated at all from our perspective. At this time, the moon's illuminated side completely faces the sun, and we see the side that's in full shadow.
- During the first quarter, we see half of the moon's illuminated side and half of the moon's shadowed side. The same is true in the third quarter, except the sides we see are reversed.[5]
- When the moon appears full, we see its full illuminated half, while the side that's in complete shadow faces out into space.
- After the full moon, the moon continues its journey back to its original position between the Earth and the sun, which is another new moon.
- It takes the moon a little over 27.32 days to complete one full revolution around the Earth. However, a full lunar month (from new moon to new moon) is 29.5 days, because that's how long it takes the moon to return to its position between the sun and Earth.[6]
3Learn why the moon waxes and wanes. On the moon's journey from new moon to full moon, we see a growing portion of its illuminated half, and this is called the waxing phase (waxing means growing or increasing). As the moon then goes from full to new again, we see a diminishing portion of its illuminated half, and this is called waning, which means decreasing in strength or intensity.
- The moon's phases always look the same, so although the moon itself may appear in different locations and orientations in the sky, you'll always be able to identify what phase it's in if you know what to look for.
Part Two of Three:
Determining Moon Phases in the Northern HemisphereEdit
1Recognize that the moon waxes and wanes from right to left. Different parts of the moon are illuminated during waxing and waning. In the Northern Hemisphere, the part of the moon that is illuminated will appear to grow from right to left until it's full, and it will then diminish from right to left.
- A waxing moon will be illuminated on the right side, and a waning moon will be illuminated on the left side.[7]
- Hold out your right hand with your thumb out, palm facing the sky. The thumb and forefingers make a curve like a backward C. If the moon fits in this curve, it's a waxing moon (increasing). If you do the same with your left hand and the moon fits in the "C" curve then it is waning (decreasing).
2Remember D, O, C. Since the moon always follows the same illumination pattern, you can use the shape of the letters D, O, and C to determine if the moon is waxing or waning. During the first quarter, the moon will look like a D. When it's full, it will look like an O. And when it's in the third quarter, it will look like a C.
- A crescent moon in the shape of a backwards C is waxing
- A half or gibbous moon in the shape of a D is waxing.
- A half or gibbous moon in the shape of a backwards D is waning.
- A crescent moon in the shape of a C is waning.
3Learn when the moon rises and sets. The moon doesn't always rise and set at the same time, but changes depending on what phase it's in. This means you can use the time of moonrise and moonset to determine if the moon is waxing or waning.
- You can't see a new moon because it isn't illuminated by the sun, and because it rises and sets at the same time as the sun.
- As the waxing moon moves into its first quarter, it will rise in the morning, reach its height around dusk, and set around midnight.
- Full moons come up when the sun goes down and set when the sun comes up.
- As the waning moon moves into its third quarter, it will rise at midnight and set in the morning.[8]
Part Three of Three:
Determining Moon Phases in the Southern HemisphereEdit
1Learn which part of the moon is illuminated during waxing and waning. In opposition to the moon in the Northern Hemisphere, the moon in the Southern Hemisphere will illuminate from left to right, become full, and then diminish from left to right.
- A moon that's illuminated on the left side is waxing, while a moon that's illuminated on the right side is waning.[9]
- Hold out your right hand with your thumb out, palm facing the sky. The thumb and forefingers make a curve like a backward C. If the moon fits in this curve, it's a waning moon (decreasing). If you do the same with your left hand and the moon fits in the "C" curve then it is waxing (increasing).
2Remember C, O, D. The moon goes through all the same phases in the Southern Hemisphere, but the shapes of the letters that indicate waxing and waning are reversed from the Northern Hemisphere.
- A crescent moon in the shape of a C is waxing
- A half or gibbous moon in the shape of a backwards D is waxing.
- A moon in the shape of an O is full.
- A half or gibbous moon in the shape of a D is waning.
- A crescent moon in the shape of a backwards C is waning.
3Learn when the moon rises and sets. Although the moon may illuminate in the opposite direction in the Southern Hemisphere versus the Northern, it will still rise and set at the same times during the same phases.
- The first-quarter moon will rise in the morning and set around midnight.
- The full moon rises and sets when the sun sets and rises.
- The third-quarter moon will rise at midnight and set in the morning.[10]
Community Q&A
What is waning and waxing if it is not the left and right side of the moon that are visible?Answered by wikiHow Contributor
- That would be a New Moon. In a New Moon, the lit half of the Moon is facing the Sun and we can only see the dark half. There is no light visible during a New Moon.
Are there any phrases or words that can help with remembering the phases of the moon?Answered by wikiHow Contributor
- Waxing is "Maxing," or growing with light until a full moon is reached. Waning is the opposite, or decreasing after a full moon, and is always illuminated on the left. Then, there is a waxing or waning Gibbous moon, which means more than half of the moon is illuminated. And then a waxing or waning Crescent Moon, when less than half is illuminated. A quarter moon is when half the surface which faces the earth is lit.
Is this the same at the equator?Answered by wikiHow Contributor
- The first quarter (waxing half moon) will have the shape of a lowercase N when it rises and a lowercase U when it sets. The last quarter (waning half moon) will look like a lowercase U when it rises and a lowercase N when it sets. Both the waxing and waning crescent moon phases will look like a smile. The only way to tell the difference is the time of day -- the waxing crescent moon is seen in the evening and the waning crescent is seen in the morning.
Is the waxing of the moon on the 15th day of the month?Answered by wikiHow Contributor
- The moon takes 29.5 days to orbit the Earth (almost a month), meaning the waxing phases of the moon happen on different dates each month. Remember that the moon is always either waxing (to a full moon) or waning (to a new moon) - it doesn't happen in a specific moment. For fun: because the Moon's orbit of the Earth is less than a calendar month, we occasionally get two full moons in the one month. The second is called a blue moon, which is where we get the term "once a blue moon" - i.e not very often.
I think you have the waxing and waning pictures around the wrong way for the Southern Hemisphere. When the Moon is illuminated on the right (not left) it is waxing, isn't it?Answered by wikiHow Contributor
- No, the moon is illuminated on the left half. If you check an online chart of the moon phases and look at the phases on that chart, they should indicate that a waxing gibbous, for instance, is lit on the left side of the disc, 51–99% lit in the Southern Hemisphere.
What if the moon is always facing the sun?Answered by Khusleen Kaur
- This is a very good question. Half of the Moon is always facing the Sun, as all the other planets do. The Moon rotates (spins) and revolves (moves around), hence differentiating the position of the half lit side of the Moon. We also only see the lit part of the Moon as it revolves.

Unanswered: INSERT INTO and UNION
Hi all,
Not a problem more of a 'why does it do that'
I have a script that does this:
some stuff
new table
Another Select etc here
same table as above
From, where etc
Now the question.
The UNION is not doing it's distinct thing on the last INSERT INTO. I know this because I have 2 exact same records in the resulting table
No bad thing, this is exactly what I wanted it to do.
Excuse my ignorance but is the INSERT INTO ignoring what happens before it ?

Yes of course.
Why would you expect a statement to honour the distinct nature of a UNION if it is not a UNION itself?Testimonial:

I'm a little confused here...
The union is different from UNION ALL, IMHO, it should ignore the duplicates.
However, the insert-statement after the select...into.. is just another statement. It is oblivious of the statement before.
does this compare to what you're talking about?
use monkey go set nocount on go -- create the tables create table table1 (mycolumn int) create table table2 (mycolumn int) go -- insert some data with duplicate rows insert into table1 values (1) insert into table1 values (1) insert into table1 values (2) -- insert with a union insert into table2 (mycolumn) (select mycolumn from table1 union select mycolumn from table1 ) go /* mycolumn ----------- 1 1 2 */ select * from table1 /* mycolumn ----------- 1 2 */ select * from table2 -- and here goes the second insert... insert into table2 (mycolumn) (select mycolumn from table1 where mycolumn = 1) select * from table2 /* mycolumn ----------- 1 --> union-statement 2 --> union-statement 1 --> second insert-statement 1 --> second insert-statement */ go drop table table1 drop table table2 go

The UNION operator basically "welds together" two separate SELECT operations so that they produce a single result set, which often leads people to assume that they somehow become a single statement. That isn't the case, at least from a logical perspective each SELECT gets executed separately then their result sets are co-mingled.
In your example above, there are three separate SELECT statements. Two of them have a UNION, and one is wholly independant.
Does that help or just confuse things?

Stepping outside the ring for a change
© St. Petersburg Times, published October 31, 2000
I never thought I would live with a man who watches professional wrestling.
In my romantic dreams, a couple dress sizes ago, my man would be a high-octane thinker, a reader of wide, eclectic taste, with whom I would engage in profound dialogue about the state of the world as well as our entwined souls.
Instead I got a guy who calls it 'rassling and who, until he started hanging around with me, never voted for a Democrat.
Now he votes for Democrats. Now and then.
Yes, marriage works its magic, or looked at another way, does its damage. Now I find myself writing about the nation's most famous 'rassler, he with the head so large and bald it resembles a full moon on a clear night, Jesse Ventura:
"The definition of a a wasted vote is not voting your heart and your conscience. If you don't do that -- then you have wasted your vote."
It is not conscience that prompts my Democratic friends to say that if I vote for Ralph Nader I am voting for Gush, as Nader calls him. This is the argument of somebody trying to put the best face on surrender: Al Gore is dull but ambitious, and sure, he'll end up a President like his predecessor, stuck placating the Republicans, but things could always be worse.
And it is the grossest cynicism that has Republicans hollering Vote for Nader at their man's rallies, because they believe the Nader vote will keep the White House out of Gore's hands, or Bore, as Nader calls him.
I am voting for Nader the way people voted for Ross Perot, the way they once voted for John Anderson.
I protest, therefore I am.
Everybody knows the health care system is broken.
That Social Security is going to pieces.
That fewer and fewer corporations are dominanting more and more of the economy.
That the richer America's elderly get, the more its children starve.
That there is no living wage to be made flipping burgers or answering phones or even in being a new teacher.
And that the most responsive government you get is the one you buy with a campaign contribution.
This is the most radical step I have ever taken as a citizen. Far more radical than marching against a war or for clean air, or against Nixon, as I once did.
It doesn't matter that Nader will lose.
It matters that the Democrats and Republicans hear that voters do not turn on debates so they can indulge in the pleasure of having their eyes glaze over while the candidates debate what they'll do with the billions at a president's disposal.
I am tired. I want change.
I want the problems I see in front of my face, the problems that plague Tampa Bay as much as the rest of the nation, if not more, fixed.
I do not want slogans about the size of government or of tax bills or about the collapse of our moral fiber.
Been there. Heard that.
Ralph Nader reshaped the country's agenda on safety in cars, in toys and on the job. He made the environment a respectable issue. He asks questions that make people who deserve to squirm squirm. Which is more than you can say for Gush and Bore.
I'm not through yet.
Willie Logan has my vote for the U.S. Senate -- if only to kick the Democrats in the shins for acting like Republicans and being afraid of a black man as state House speaker.
I might even vote for a couple of Republicans for local office. Only a couple.
But don't ever invite me to a wrestling, or a 'rassling, match. Not even the man in my house who calls it 'rassling, will show his face at one.

Lakeshore Soccer Club has one of the largest Soccer Recreation Divisions in not only Quebec but Canada. We are constantly striving to improve and value each and every member from our players to our volunteer coaches and division managers. Without the fantastic support from our volunteers our program would be nowhere near as successful as it is.
Policy on Maintaining Team Standings
Lakeshore Soccer Club believes player development should not be measured by team standings for Regular House League games. The club believes in individual progression and development which is a decision consistent with the FQSF and many our neighbouring clubs. Competition is still vital to this process and teams will still be encouraged to play to win however promoting the developmental aspect of the sport will remain the number one priority. The club will still continue to hold post season playoffs for U-10 and above.
Many Thanks
Lakeshore Soccer Club
You play at the rhythm you train at, If you train badly, you play badly. If you work like a beast in training, you play the same way.Pep Guardiola
Coaching Philosophy
Our volunteer coaches are a vital cog in the Lakeshore Soccer Club and as such must present the clubs mission, vision and values.
Our Mission
Lakeshore Soccer Club aims to create, develop and enhance the skills, ability, understanding and enjoyment of the game we all love. We strive to support ALL of our players and coaches through quality structured programs and constant availability of technical support.
Our Vision
The Vision of Lakeshore Soccer Club is to be recognised as a model organisation, providing the best quality in soccer developmental programs for all skill levels, recreational, competitive and elite performance players.
Our Values
Our coaches must ensure that through their efforts, Lakeshore Soccer Club is able to;
- Demonstrate respect, honesty and integrity between coaches, players and parents
- Conduct itself in a fair, credible and trustworthy manner
- Be responsive to the needs of those it serves
- Pursue excellence in all programs and operations
- Promote a safe and fun environment for all participants
- Instil a love and respect for all aspects of the game
- Promote and encourage high standards of sportsmanship and fair play
I don't believe skill was, or ever will be, the result of coaches. It is a result of a love affair between the child and the ball.Roy Maurice Keane

self-motivated, deep thinker. hardly have the chance to share my thoughts with anyone because most people care about material world but I don't care that much.
The good side is that I can appear to be quite worldly. I really like to joke around and I hope laughter can be part of my daily life with that special guy.

Charles Darwin, the Copley Medal, and the Rise of Naturalism, 1862—1864, thrusts students into the intellectual ferment of Victorian England just after publication of The Origin of Species.
Part of the "Reacting to the Past" series, this text consists of a game in which students experience firsthand the tension between natural and teleological views of the worldmanifested especially in reconsideration of the design argument commonly known through William Paley's Natural Theology or, Evidences of the Existence and Attributes of the Deity (1802).
Note: Reacting to the Past has been developed under the auspices of Barnard College. It won the Theodore Hesburgh Award (2004), funded by the TIAA-CREF, for pedagogical innovation, and it has also received substantial support from the Fund for the Improvement of Post-Secondary Education (FIPSE) of the U.S. Department of Education. With this support, Barnard College hosts a series of conferences throughout the nation at which interested faculty and administrators learn about "Reacting" by playing miniversions of the games.

Remember: All your texture dimensions need to be powers of two, e.g. 256x256, 512x512, 1024x1024, 2048x2048, and mixed sizes like 512x1024 etc.
Digression: There are a few other things, like breaking up tiling textures with columns and other objects, and the large mural to the right, which helps hide tiling effects and generally improves aesthetic design
In brief, turn on snapping and create a selection from the corner, you should see pink lines when you're dead in the center of the image. Add superfluous bevels/effects as desired. Or copy and paste mine!
To do this, first select the whole canvas (Alt+A) and go to Edit->Define Pattern, click OK on the dialog that appears. Now, open a new image, starting with the size of our standard texture (1024x1024). Use the fill tool, switch from "foreground" to "pattern", and then choose the pattern we just saved. Fill the image with pattern.

can i fit standard xenons to my car or will i get dis warning ?
you can fit them but they will require a new central control unit, recoding with vag-com adaptation looms and leveling sensors i think, NHN is the man for the job
Straight fit mate, won't need any coding & won't show any dis warnings.
This is why I needed your controller codings, I havnt forgotten, so bare with me.
OK I KNOW THE BI-XENONS all work ok but get a dis fault which is a pain in the bum...
i dont mind buying a new control unit if that will make the bi-xenons work.
or hopefully just put standard xenons on with no dis warnings
i have been told today that you can put somethink in line with the lights to cancel the dis warnings...
As I've already advised, you cant just get a new control module, it will need rewiring completely & given the central electric board has a ***** load of wires & connectors to map pin to pin no guarantees it will work, its not a good or easy job at all.
What dont you get about this for the 3rd time of advising, your car runs to the D module, it stops there & you need a higher byte version to code bixenons properly but your car doesnt support them any higher, you said to me you want to do it properly but now you're saying you want to bodge it with something in line.
I had an idea that would get you oem xenons, now what do you want to do cause not wasting time on this if you keep changing the goal posts fella, its pointless then as you can appreciate.
ok sorry im just abit keen to get xenons.
yes interested in sorting somethink out to get some oem xenons....
many thanks for all your help.....

Dedicated to the 2000 National College Football Champions, the Oklahoma Sooners
Over fifty years, boy and man, I've been a Sooners fan
Watched and reveled in their glories, every one;
But there's no more glorious "Sooner Magic"
Than the Red October Run.
The new millennium's first football season,
Excited Sooners fans' hopes did soar.
They had tasted victory in Bob Stoops' first year;
Now, they wanted - no, expected - even more.
There was a glint of promise in Bob's eyes,
Strength and confidence in his every word.
"Our Team has shown improvement", is what he said;
"We'll win!" is what fans heard.
By September's end, the Sooners were 4 and O,
A "cupcake schedule" some anxious fans would say;
Twenty-two days in October would rule their destiny.
Texas, K-State, Nebraska, the teams they'd have to play.
"OU's October is a gauntlet", said ESPN;
"Play #10 and #2 and #1…and win"?
So, on a rainy Saturday morning in Dallas,
The Red October Run would begin.
The Texas State Fair at the Cotton Bowl,
Fans were welcomed by Big Tex.
They screamed, "Go OU!" and "Hook'em Horns!";
But none could imagine what happened next.
Heupel was a dominating General;
The Sooners Offense, his relentless troops.
Calmus and the Defense assured a total rout,
The Coach of the Day was Bob Stoops.
Sooners fans were wild, delirious with glee;
But Bob seemed focused and sedate.
"We'll enjoy this victory Sunday;
Then Monday, we'll prepare for Kansas State".
No time to revel in the Glory, #2 was tough.
Better than the Huskers? The possibility was real.
The road to #1 went through Manhattan,
And the Sooners would have to win it on the field.
The sportscasters had a field day.
Last year's "coaching coup" was news again.
Beasley versus Heupel was "The Match-up".
Could Heupel evade K-State's awesome defense
and find a way to win?
Again, Heupel and his troops met the challenge;
And as the Sooners "D" assured a hard fought win,
Every Sooners fan's heart was stirred.
Could our Sooners be "Big Red" again?
Mighty Nebraska, #1, was coming to Owen Field.
"Biggest OU - Nebraska game in years!" Corso said.
It would be 1 versus 2, a heralded gridiron epic
For the coveted title of…"Big Red".
It was OU's biggest home game ever.
The campus was alive with vendors and would-be
ticket buyers.
Every Sooners Fan's heart was pounding.
Could the smell of #1 stoke the Sooners' fires?
The Huskers struck so quickly.
At 14 to nothing, Sooners fans were stunned.
It was shaping up to be a long, long day;
And it wasn't going to be fun.
Quickly tho', Heupel rallied his Sooners troops.
They scored and scored and scored again.
The Sooners "D" built a Wall at the 50,
And would not let the Huskers in.
Winners, the Sooners ran and jumped with glee.
Fans flooded Owen Field, milling all around,
Praising and hugging their Sooners Heroes.
They even tore the goal post down.
Now #1, the Sooners had won it on the field.
Their preparation had been well taught.
Bob Stoops, all his great coaches and assistants,
Took pride in how the Sooners fought.
Someone once said, "Everyone loves a winner."
Everywhere you looked confirmed it's true.
OU flags fluttered. Decals, hats, and clothes abound.
Come November, the Sooners and their Fans
had been renewed,
There's no slighting the importance of Red October.
The Sooners came together as a Team.
No doubt too, without "The Red October Run"
Their National Championship would still be just a dream.
For the next five games, it was simply unacceptable
For the Sooners to even think that they could fail;
And, tho' Heupel played injured, they won the Big 12 Championship;
Great Sooners Defense had prevailed.
But no one gave these Big 12 Champs the slightest chance to win
Against the mighty Seminoles of Florida State.
The Heisman Trophy Winner was their quarterback
And their defense was touted to be great.
At the coin toss, Team Captain Torrance Marshall
Said to their quarterback in words most serious and sure,
"You took our boy's trophy". Then he smiled,
"Now we're gonna take yours".
The Sooners "D" was everywhere and completely shut them down;
And, when Quentin Griffin's touchdown closed the door,
Their quarterback knew that Marshall's words rang true;
The not-so-mighty 'Noles had not been allowed to score.
Yes, Bob Stoops and his Sooners knew the challenge:
To win Each game 'til Every game's been won;
Win for Sooners and their Fans the unchallenged right
To revel in the Glory of being #1.
Yes, my Sooners Team goes on and on,
Different faces, different names;
But these Sooners Champions will be well remembered
For the Season they won Every game.
Undefeated National Champions!
Before October, who would have ever dreamed?
Why, just last year, we didn't even know the players' names;
And now, they're College Football's Greatest Team.
To overcome all adversity and rise to every challenge,
The reward for such a feat is being #1;
Their path to Glory born of a Sooners Legend
Called The Red October Run.

Listening to " Honkey Chateau " and all by Elton John.
music a great memory ~Disco , Donna summer , Grease ~ Jaws !
Dad's records to Tony Bennett , Hank W Sr. , Count Basie & Louis Armstrong.
The music takes me home in a wagon filled with children and a dog "Lucky "
My Older brother , athletic , always fishing & hunting.
My younger , my Rock , Swimming and netting for fish,
feeding our Fat cat Perch off the rocks patiently awaits her food
the yelling , slamming of doors , tempers Flare , passion
Our Parents , passionate love yet passionate Hate .
After being a Family of Seven , Divorcing their fate ..
Why did that show " Dallas " bring out the Divorce in all ?
Scottish ~ Irish ~ French Iroquois ~ Cherokee
No matter what the mix ..Our curse Alcohol ~

All passions and emotions combine into one synergy
country demands patriotism but our club? So much energy
celebrations and glory allow constant piracy
and a wonderful victory can never have its privacy
paying for tickets to enjoy a win is the basic
after the maximum points collected, comes next is the music.
Pitch soldiers fight with zeal so cosmic,
giving pure entertainment and fun really orgasmic
the mood in every rivalry comes with a cost,
defeat in a derby feels like holocaust.
Raising our emblems and banners for all to see
even when disgraced, the united pride will never flee.
Always kissing the badge, win or lose,
insult our integrity and heavily pay the dues.
Copyright © Funom Makama | Year Posted 2015
In same brotherhood of fanship, all sit together as the representative
every field command to their favour gives the great feeling of an executive.
Stamping a noisy presence even when down is so brave
going further below despite this act is getting closer to the grave.
Hitting hard a hated enemy in a famous rivalry- nothing this glorious
waving flags, raising banners and loud chants throws any intimidation towards us.
Labels of victory and the waves of Mexico, we always create
standing at the opposite side of the arena, the wailers can hate.
Fully packed attendance, what's at stake insignificant to the showcasing pride
equilibrium shifts as it brings out sweat from the losing side.
Already one up, the wave movement on this side gives a fresher air
deviating from its initial circulation to ensure it is fair.
An intriguing contest is proven from a scoreboard so unstable
swinging between alerted minds and broken hearts at each turn of the table.
That moment all have been waiting for when the icon is introduced
already known flicks and tricks fully anticipated- he'll reproduce.
After the game's conclusion, the final whistle makes faces glow
giving the other side the need for their bowed heads to grow
As happy fans enjoy the blessings of a glorious institution
while their counterparts demand from their heroes an immediate restitution.
Horse power?
Let the horses keep their power
Neuer power is now the toast of all
The day all cats chose their king
It was Tiger that first wore the crown
But Lion roared, bore his fangs
And bristled up his mane like Tsunami
In a jiffy he dethroned the Tiger
Then came the king of catch-
Whose ribs are breastplates
Whose hands are magnetic tongs-
Neuer the Achilles:it was him
That shamed the lion and won the crown.
Neuer the omniform
Massive rock at duty post ;
Egal where comes the bullet:
Left, right, corner or centre;
It comes from corner,
He coils on it like a python;
It comes from centre,
He broods ball like mother-hen;
When the gunners come closer
He unfolds himself like an Ostrich taking a flight
And exclusively ward them off
Like a mother-dog chasing intruders
Away from its puppies.
Daredevil the goalkeeper
Keel that keeps the ship afloat:
It dares the oceans and shuts them out
Says cargo hold is for smile and not for tear;
In the air he is a parachute
On the ground he is yak or cyclone
Open or close the net snores
The posts say, 'it is holiday today'
The ball says, ' I am on safe hands today'
Only the gunners keep gnashing their teeth
The pains of stillbirths wet their eyes
Who shall take me to Deutschland ?
Who shall take me to Bayern- Muchen?
Let him that will take me to Neuer come now
I can't wait to meet the Archilles.
