I had a suspicion, more or less confirmed by Wikipedia [ http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/DVD_region_code ], that most if not all DVD players sold in Australia and New Zealand (where I am) are region free, so this isn't an issue for us :-) I think my Samsung player (standalone, not drive) came region locked (presumably to keep the DVD standards people happy), but with instructions in the manual on how to disable it (to keep Australian competition authorities happy - we mostly get Australian market stuff here in NZ). Kind of silly, but it seems to work :-) I assume (and wikipedia suggests) PC drives are the same; I don't actually watch many movies, and they're usually local ones. Richard

Do you know how much your bank charges if you go into your overdraft or if you go over your limit? Many of our clients pay hundreds of pounds to their bank as a result of unarranged overdraft charges. In some cases it can be more expensive to go into unarranged overdraft than it would cost to take out a payday loan.
We've carried out research that shows that overdraft charges are adding to the debt worries of our clients and the costs of having an overdraft might be higher than you'd expect. We believe that the FCA should take action to limit unarranged overdraft charges. Continue reading »

While we were binging on bhang in Mumbai on Monday, Priyanka Chopra was moping in Manhattan about missing the festival of colours. As it happened, PC was scheduled to appear on The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon on Holi day, and she told Fallon backstage that she was super homesick because of the celebrations she was missing back in India.
Little did chatty Chopra know that her FOMO was entirely unnecessary, because Fallon had a taste of home in store for her on the show!
Also see: Priyanka Chopra And Sushmita Sen Define Friendship Goals
"I didn't want you to be homesick, because we love you here at The Tonight Show, so I brought a tray of paint and we made the drink (thandai)," Jimmy said, much to Priyanka's delight. Though Fallon's version of the beverage didn't have the requisite "magical substances," it still lifted PC's spirits considerably. Smearing paint all over the talk show host, Priyanka proceeded to do a little dance while she laughed out loud at Jimmy's reaction. "This is going to get fun!" PC predicted, and indeed it was.
Clearly, you can take the girl out of her desh, but you can't take the desi out of this darling!

FOXBOROUGH — Yes, it's true. Patriots DL Albert Haynesworth was seen at practice this afternoon in full pads.

The myth
'Don't fish Zigs in windy weather. The Zig will be laying over in the water or bouncing around because the wind/tow and the fish are on the deck anyway because it's lower pressure.'
The reality
"I'll deal with the last point first. Whilst there is a tendency to fish Zigs on higher pressure warmer days and down on the deck when the pressure drops and it gets windy, that's not always the correct thing to do. There's absolutely nothing at all to say that the fish will not still be mid-water if there's a big wind on, and we often see fish crashing on windy days. It's a complete myth that the water will be choppy below the surface. After about a foot down the water settles completely and I have been in the sea in 3ft waves only to sink below the surface madness to find it was mega calm. In fact, on a windy day after a warm spell the highest oxygen levels will be at the surface so a bait presented just below that can be a winner.
"And as for Zigs lying down because of tow, what a load of tosh. They may lean over a bit, but they certainly don't lie flat or bounce around."

US Army Now Testing Clip-on Ray Guns
Peter Donnell / 3 years ago
Ray Guns, the perfect example of what we thought futuristic military combat would involve, is starting to become a reality. The US Army has already started fitting some of their trucks with powerful laser systems and missile defence systems, now it looks like they're making good progress at miniaturising the technology, as they're now outfitting ground troops with their latest beam weapons.
Created by Army Armament Research electronics engineers James E. Burke, the device is known as the "Burke Pulser". The Pulser is an attachment device which can be fitted to standard rifles and uses a piezoelectric generator, as well as a pair of protruding antennas to generate powerful electrical bursts.
The whole system sounds pretty futuristic and by fitting it to an M4 Carbine, much in the same way you would a standard flash suppressor, it can quickly turn the gun into a ray gun; awesome!
While we're not going to be using these new weapons to fight off laser-wielding aliens just yet, the new weapons are perfect for frying the electronics of IEDs and roadside bombs. It's still early in development, but with an estimated price of $1000 per unit, the new technology could quickly help save lives in the near future.
Thank you Engadget for providing us with this information.

Initiatives Will Target Guns And Gangs, Organized Crime And Illegal Drugs
Brampton, ON, July 19 /CNW/ - Peel Region residents are safer today as a result of the McGuinty government's investments to target guns, gangs and organized crime, Community Safety and Correctional Services Minister Monte Kwinter and Brampton West-Mississauga MPP Vic Dhillon said today.
"This investment will go a long way to combating the spread of guns and gangs in Brampton, Peel Region and Ontario," said Dhillon. "It sends a clear signal that the McGuinty government will not tolerate illegal activities in Ontario."
The $1,020,000 in new investment for the Peel Regional Police is part of a $12-million anti-crime package announced recently by Premier Dalton McGuinty. The Peel Regional Police will use the funding to establish a joint forces operation with the Durham Regional Police Service by deploying 18 full-time officers dedicated to a rapid response team.
"Guns, gangs and illegal drugs have no place in our communities," Kwinter said. "We will continue to work with our policing partners to rid Ontario of drug labs and grow operations and to protect our citizens."
"Peel Regional Police are proud to work with the Ministry of Community Safety and Correctional Services, and police services across Ontario in the fight against gun violence in our communities," said Peel Regional Police Deputy Chief Paul Tetzlaff. "The elements of this crime package will further the existing strategies in Peel Region, and strengthen our commitment to investigating and tackling the serious problem of guns and gangs."
The McGuinty government's new anti-crime package includes:
-A crystal methamphetamine elimination project that includes funding for an additional nine Ontario Provincial Police (OPP) officers
-Increasing the capacity of the Office of the Fire Marshal to investigate fires and explosions caused by methamphetamine labs and marijuana grow operations
-Creating a Provincial Task Force on Marijuana Grow Operations
-Enhancing the capacity of the OPP and municipal police services to identify, locate and seize the illegal gains from criminal organizations, and seek their forfeiture through the courts.
These initiatives build upon the government's 2006 guns and gangs strategy. Highlights of measures undertaken by the McGuinty government to ensure safer communities include:
-1,000 new officers for Ontario police services
-The Youth Opportunities Strategy to help young people faced with challenges achieve success
-A new operations centre for the Guns and Gangs Task Force - the first of its kind in North America.
"Tackling gun crimes is a complex challenge - and criminal gangs are always adapting and evolving," said Kwinter. "Our strategy is working but we need to keep up the pressure by being tough on gun crime, targeting gangs and providing young people with positive alternatives to gang culture."

text: By NEIL DOWNING James Rall, of Hydroacustics Inc., of New York, explains uses for the Proteus ROV roaming ocean vehicle, used for exploration with cameras and lights. The ROV is controlled by a joystick. The Providence Journal / Steve Szydlowski PROVIDENCE — Jason Cedro clicked on a computer mouse at the Rhode Island Convention Center yesterday and on the screen appeared a live, gull's-eye view of Narragansett Bay, from a camera perched miles to the south at Beavertail State Park, in Jamestown. He clicked again to order the camera, by wireless connection, to pan the Bay, then focus more closely on a power boat motoring across the water beneath a blue sky. From the same screen, Cedro was also able to obtain a live view of the Bay's activity from Prudence Island, another from the area around the Pell Bridge in Newport. Cedro is sales manager for Smiths Detection — LiveWave, a Middletown company that provides electronic detection and other security services mainly to government agencies in the United States. His company was among 70 businesses and other exhibitors displaying their products and services at the three-day Ocean TechExpo, which opened yesterday. The business-to-business trade show is, in effect, a marketplace at which technology companies and others show their products and services to scientists, engineers and technical directors. The expo is sponsored by Marine Technology Reporter, a magazine published by New Wave Media, a marine publishing company based in New York. It is the first time the annual show has been held in Providence, said publisher John C. O'Malley. "This area of the country is a hub for marine technology, and Providence, we felt, was the ideal location for this exposition," he said at the Rhode Island Convention Center as the show got under way. The expo was established "so that companies and organizations can get exposure to the latest technology serving the marine industry," O'Malley said. The show also allows Rhode Island's marine technology companies and related organizations a chance to exhibit their work, said John Riendeau, business development manager for defense and homeland security at the Rhode Island Economic Development Corporation. Among them is Smiths Detection, which is part of the global technology business Smiths Group PLC, based in the United Kingdom. And one of the company's projects is the remote video-surveillance and communications system now in place in southern portions of Narragansett Bay. The project is the result of an $856,000 grant that the U.S. Department of Homeland Security awarded to the state in 2005. "It was a pilot project by the Department of Homeland Security, which wanted to see a wireless communications system demonstrated on water," Riendeau said. The Middletown branch of Smiths Detection, which has 20 employees, won the state contract to install and implement the system — the "Rhode Island Port Security Wireless Communications Network" — which became fully operational last year, according to Riendeau and Cedro. The system is used mainly by the state Department of Environmental Management, but also by the Coast Guard, the Rhode Island State Police and other law-enforcement organizations, Cedro and Riendeau said. Among other things, the system is used to monitor commercial shipping activity on the Bay, Riendeau said. It was also used as a security tool during the recent Tall Ships festival in Newport, he said. Cedro said he hoped to expand the network's capacity over time. It is possible, for example, that the system's reach could one day be extended to northern portions of the Bay, Riendeau said. The expo is geared to businesses, not consumers, said O'Malley and Rob Howard, the show director. By the time the event ends tomorrow, they said, up to 1,300 people from 25 countries will have attended. As reported in the Providence Journal.

Apart from attire, what makes a man stylish? What completes the outfit of a man? It's a sunglass that makes a man look stylish and handsome. It can completely transform any man's appearance and look. However, it's highly important to choose the right pair that carries a high standard of luxury and outspoken style. For those who have questions regarding excellent customer service, quality of sunglass, and choosing expensive glasses, here is some important information that will be useful at any time.
Men's Sunglasses: Why you want to buy?
Whatever may be the product, there should be a valid reason before buying anything. Similarly, you should have to think and make sure that you want to buy sunglasses for a reason. You might want to have a pair of sunglass for protection or simply for style, you have a large number of glasses available in the market that will suit you, even you don't have to consult a stylist for tips regarding sunglasses. These stylish sunglasses including some popular brands, like Gabbana sunglasses men, Prada sunglasses, etc. are available online with numerous color options, shape, size and face structures.
What kind of protection through sunglasses?
Sunglasses for men are highly essential for protecting the eyes from sun's UV rays. Sunglasses can also decrease the amount of bright light entering the eye. It helps a wearer to see comfortably in places where there is source of bright light such as a beach on a sunny day. If you want to have better protection and high quality material, attempt should be made to purchase branded glasses that offer a lot more than style.
Style matters:
For men style is everything. They want to look hot and crispy. Every man has a desire to flaunt a beautiful pair of sunglasses on the holiday or a beach party. Since style matters, a nice pair of branded sunglass will complete the outfit. Sunglasses are also ideal for those who prefer a sportier look. If you want to look hot and sporty, you may consider Prada glasses men that will go great with your weekend wear and look perfect while you are riding a bike or grilling steaks.
Choosing a brand:
When it comes to choosing a popular brand, people look for Prada, D&G, Ray Ban, etc. The Dolce and Gabbana (D&G) is an Italian fashion house that offers a range of luxurious glasses that not only protects your eyes, but makes a big difference to the overall appearance. D&G glasses are popular and respected for being very fashionable. Their glasses use different modern colors, designs and quality materials. The company manufactures luxurious items that are more formal and fits a long term trend. Similarly, they have high quality sunglasses that are more of a trendsetter for younger generation.
However, over the last few years, the company has provided with the largest online range of authentic sunglasses for men & women and the company name has gone from strength to strength. Now, it's your turn to renovate your wardrobe with a pair of stylish D&G sunglasses.

You purchased your 190C because its a reputation for strength and European styling agreed with your nature; so why would you settle for second rate when it comes to the highest quality auto parts? Auto enthusiasts appreciate the luxury built into each Mercedes-Benz, and know that only the highest quality replacement 190C parts will suffice when repairs are needed. It's not a regular occurrence that you find yourself in need of a replacement Distributor Cap to fix your car or truck. Your Mercedes-Benz dealership isn't the only place to buy the highest quality parts to repair your 190C.
Without the properly working ignition timing system developed for the internal combustion engine, there would be no way to generate enough power for efficient operation. One durable part in your Mercedes-Benz 190C engine that cannot fight the rust or pitting that results from its operation is your distributor cap. It has posts on the top where the spark plug wires connect. When the ignition coil sends current to the rotor underneath the Mercedes-Benz 190C distributor cap, the bottom of each post gets charged by the rotor and current goes through the wire to the spark plug in proper time.
Trust in the value of the parts you get from carpartsdiscount.com and save time and money on all your upcoming repairs. Don't let a Distributor Cap repair bring about the demise of your car, truck, or SUV, and don't gamble with its condition by installing anything but the best repair parts. At Car Parts Discount, we have real customer support agents available with enough expertise to help you purchase the appropriate Mercedes-Benz 190C part for your project or repair. Need 1965, 1964, 1963, 1962, 1961, 1960 Mercedes-Benz 190C Distributor Cap parts? We've got them right here.

Oil Patch
No Walk In the Park for the Habs
by Lisa Brown on 11/09/11 at 02:30 AM ET

Oilers beat Canadiens 3-1
The Edmonton Oilers found a way to put away their first original six team of their Eastern road trip. While apparently no one on the RDS panel expected the Oilers to find a win and the term "a walk in the park" was even dropped in terms of how the Canadiens as a team may find matching up against the Oilers, a win was exactly what the Oilers took.
Going into this game, I was pretty sure that it would be Lennart Petrell and Colten Teubert sitting this one out, or being sent to Oklahoma City. It turns out I was only half right. It was Magnus Paajarvi who took his place in the press box and not the Oilers bench. There is speculation that Renney may not start rotating a few players through the pressbox until he feels confident about who to keep in his lineup.
In terms of defence, it was Colten Teubert who sat this game out. Ryan Whitney will be out of the Oilers' lineup for a while longer, but I wouldn't be surprised if Teubert got sent down at some point this week.
The Canadiens dominated the Oilers on the shot clock, but thanks to the outstanding performance by Nikolai Khabibulin, the Oilers not only stayed in this game, but walked away with the two points.
Yes, this is the same Khabibulin that I offered back to the Jets. Not only did I offer to pack Khabibulin's bags, but I also offered to drive him to the airport. Of course, I made this offer in early September, but I don't think that many saw a career comeback of this magnitude.
Ryan Nugent-Hopkins was left off of the score sheet, but was still an integral part of this game, like all of his others. It was clear through this game especially, that teams are recognizing Nugent-Hopkins as someone that needs to be stopped. We knew it was coming, but Nugent-Hopkins will adapt and evolve his game as he finds more and more confidence at the NHL level.
Ryan Smyth once again put his body on the line, and walked away with two points; an assist on the Tom Gilbert goal, and the empty net goal that sealed the deal.
In his first game back, Ales Hemsky also earned an assist and played over 17 minutes. The Hemsky, Horcoff, Smyth line was quite successful for the Oilers the first time around, this time looks as though it could be much the same. Of course this hinges upon Hemsky remaining healthy and in the line-up.
A key to this game was certainly the Oilers' penalty kill, the Habs went 0 for 6 on their power play. This game certainly seemed to be all about special teams. Not only did the Oilers have success killing penalties, but Jones' second period goal was scored short handed.
The Oilers were not very successful on the dot through sixty minutes. Overall, the Oilers lost far more than they won. The ray of sunshine was that Nugent-Hopkins seems to be catching on to certain linesmen and ways to help himself win faceoffs. Likely, this is due to practising with Eric Belanger.
Next up, the Oilers take on the Boston Bruins on Thursday. The interesting story behind this game is of course the matchup of Taylor Hall and Tyler Seguin. Is there a rivalry, how will they respond to each other?

The Air Jordan X's sleek lines made it a natural choice to port over for the CMFT series, this latest proving that the Ten can do just as well as a more casually-oriented lifestyle look. The Jordan X Autoclave is back with a new colorup that positions it among this season's freshest looks, a black and white combo that adds the gum sole we've seen on each pair of these so far. Their contrasting leather textures are fairly similar to the Varsity Red debut pair; which blocking style looks better on Jordan Brand's latest Legacy-based lifestyle hybrid?

Anderson Window balance
A home owner from New York says:
October 4, 2015
Please find the three attached photos of the left window balance of an Anderson double hung 32" by 19 1/2". It is from the early eighties, but you knew that. I could not find any numbers on your site which matched these. Thanks so much for your video, I found it when I was half way there but I do appreciate it. If you can provide the proper part numbers I would like to order both sides.
A home owner from New York says:
October 6, 2015
Not knowing any better I gave the overall dimensions of the window. Now I see that it might be the visible glass dimensions which are W 28 3/8" by H 15 7/8". Hope that this helps.

Thanks for posting. The key stamp here is "5#23." With that in mind I recommend our 24-531 Andersen sash balance.

Aphex Twin Closed His Label 'Rephlex'
Aphex Twin confirmed that his label, Rephlex, has officially closed. In an interview with Groove, he disclosed that the label had ceased its operations in the fall of 2014. Launched back in 1991, Rephlex was run by Richard D. James alongside Grant Wilson-Claridge. The platform was used to release albums by various notable electronic artists including Mike Paradinas, founder of Planet Mu Records, Ed Upton, Luke Vibert, and Squarepusher.
On the subject of the Rephlex closing, James explained, "It has finished, it's closed now [...] Me and my friend would have drifted apart, but actually the label did keep us together. It got to a point where I'd actually rather be his friend than be in business with him."
The follow-up to Aphex Twin's Syro will be the 13-track EP Computer Controlled Acoustic Instruments Pt. 2, slated to be released by Warp on January 23.

From my new Bloomberg View column:
Obama presented it as a way to help struggling families: "Americans overwhelmingly agree that no one who works full time should ever have to raise a family in poverty." That comment provides a misleading picture of who minimum-wage earners are. The White House's own graphpromoting the idea shows that only 26 percent of minimum-wage earners have kids. Thirty percent either have spouses and no kids or are kids themselves.
Raising the minimum wage is not an effective tool against poverty, either. A 2010 study found that state poverty rates were unaffected by minimum-wage increases. It also found that if the minimum wage were raised to $9.50 an hour from $7.25, only 11 percent of the beneficiaries would be people who live in poor households.

Earthquake Disaster Preparedness
Former FEMA Residential Earthquake Damage Inspector Howard Cook defines earthquake disaster preparedness: what you need to do in order to prepare and what to do when the actual shaking starts. One of the first things I would like to stress is that the "Duck, Cover, and Hold" recommendation of the Red Cross as part of their earthquake disaster preparedness advice is usually not possible.
Once a big earthquake hits, you will probably not be able to stand let alone run to a table, duck underneath, and hold onto the legs. In fact, you could get injured doing so. The best thing for you to do is drop to the floor as far away from any objects that may fall as you can, cover your head and wait for the shaking to stop. If you have children, do not run to them. If you must move during the earthquake, crawl. One of the best things you can do for your own earthquake disaster preparedness is to make sure furniture and other loose objects cannot fall on your head.
If you would like an evaluation of your building or home, please fill out this form. I will take a look on Google maps and email you back information relevant to your building or house and provide approximate costs. If you are doing your own retrofit or have any questions about your house I am happy to help you free of charge.

text: Tried plugging in the ear buds and no sound coming out while using phone or listening to Youtube. Also can't find any settings that need to be turned on for headphones, so what gives? I know others are using them, so how'd you get them to work? Update: Another Epic has to go BACK!!!!!! Contacted Sprint technical support and the ear bud should work by simply plugging it in. This will be my fourth. Final update: Well this is embarrassing. Went storming into the Sprint store to return my phone, and the guy behind the counter wanted to check it out first. I knew I had screwed up, when he forced the headphone jack ALL the way in. I had pushed it in and applied as much force as I felt comfortable with, but it wast enough, the jack needs to be fully plugged in. Duh!

Greetings, lovely Portland Chowhounds! I am so lucky to be planning another salvo at your plethora of food offerings, our seventh trip in the last couple of years. We'll be with a small for the first few days (Thurs night to Sat night), then meals for two thereafter til Tues.
I've sent out emails to a couple of places to check that they allow (and don't mind) kids. She's 5.5 years old but used to "adult" restaurants and we'd take her out of the room in the unlikely event of a meltdown, of course.
Thinking Farm Café, Tara Thai (for Lao food), Savoy Tavern (bistro area allows minors), Bent Brick (they actually have a short kids' menu), Taqueria Nueve and/or La Calaca Camelona for dinners. Any of these stand out as either a) not chow worthy or b) rabidly unkidfriendly? Weve made the mistake of targeting specifically kiddy oriented rooms previously and are trying to avoid that, but don't want to horrify other patrons when we arrive either. Because of Ox's awkwardness, was contemplating trying that at 4:30 pm with the girl -- utter madness? mad genius? Is Davenport early suitable for her? What are we thinking about Bar Mingo these days?
Lunches I'm less worried about. We're thinking Burrasca's or Picnic if the weather cooperates, Devil's Dill, Maurice, Tarad Thai for the northern Thai dishes, Taqueria Santa Cruz plus doughtnuts! Is the Imperial burger still worthy? We have NO good burgers at home so all candidates welcome, that are cooked to order and not too fancy. Matchbox Lounge was a fave, now it's Savoy Tavern's, so that's an idea of what I like.
Breaky/brunch ideas: Radar (since I'm cheesed off at Broder's lines), Sen Yai for Thai congee,
Happy hour/snack targets include Noble Rot for the burger and view, Robo Taco for al pastor tacos only, Tanuki (NO KIDS),
Beverages (without the small one!) might cover off Bee Thinking's mead market, Reverend Nat's and Saint Honore for cider, Silk for the cilantro kumquat gimlet, Base Camp, Belmont Station
New-to-us coffee sightings: Cathedral, Christopher David, Grindhouse, Portland Roasting, new Coava if it's open, new Heart downtown. Maybe Either/Or in Sellwood. Anything else newish and good? For reference, Spella is the SO's current fave in the area.
Open to critiques, better ideas, disses and general input. Many thanks!

Marques Colston: Recapping Colston's Week 13 Fantasy PerformanceDecember 3, 2013
Colston had four catches for 27 yards against the Seahawks on Monday. After two good games, Colston has had a couple of off games, with this being a recent low point.
On the season, Colston has 43 catches for 569 yards and two touchdowns, which are disappointing numbers for him. Based on this season's numbers, Colston is probably only a matchup play in most leagues.

Justice has been SERVED!
Remember "Clock Boy"? He brought in a dismantled clock that looked exactly like a bomb and was arrested in class for it. Of course, the liberal media ran to his defense, calling anyone and everyone "racist" for opposing this young kid.
However, the authorities had every reason to believe that this was a bomb – because it looked exactly like a freaking bomb detonator!
Now after appearing in court, a Texas judge dropped the hammer by dismissing the defamation lawsuit that his father posed!!!
From PJ Media:
"A district court judge in Texas has dismissed a defamation lawsuit filed by Ahmed Mohamed on his own behalf and on behalf of his 15-year-old son, Ahmed Mohamed. They had sued Fox News, Glenn Beck, and the mayor of Irving — among others — for defamation in September of 2016.
A year earlier, Ahmed, then a 14-year-old freshman at an Irving, Texas, high school, was arrested, briefly detained by police, and suspended for three days after bringing to school a "cool clock" that looked like a briefcase bomb. Ahmed claimed to have "invented" the easily assembled clock, and that he had brought it to school to show it to his shop teacher.
The incident led many to question the Mohamed family's motives. Newly appointed District Court Judge Maricela Moore dismissed the lawsuit following a nearly three-hour hearing on Monday, according to the American Freedom Law Center:
Mohamed had sued Hanson and CSP for statements Hanson had made on Beck's program about the connection between the Clock Boy hoax bomb affair, the attendant media frenzy created in large part by his father Mohamed, civilization jihad, and the Counsel on American-Islamic Relations ("CAIR"), the Muslim Brotherhood-Hamas front group in the United States that promotes civilization jihad.
During the hearing, AFLC co-founder and senior counsel David Yerushalmi explained to Judge Moore that the purpose of the lawfare-driven lawsuit was to intimidate into silence those who might comment publicly on the connection between jihad, terrorism, sharia, and Islam. As such, Yerushalmi argued, "this case is a classic Strategic Lawsuit Against Public Participation or 'SLAPP' case and should be dismissed."
During the lengthy hearing, Judge Moore pressed Mohamed's lawyer, Fort Worth attorney Susan Hutchison, to provide any facts that would suggest that Hanson and the other defendants had said anything false or defamatory about Mohamed or his son during the television broadcasts. After spending a painfully embarrassing 15 minutes flipping through reams of paper, Mohamed's lawyer was unable to provide any such evidence."
BOOM! Justice has been served!
We're so glad that this kid didn't get his way!

Not Updated For Current Season
The masteries shown here are not yet updated for the current season, the guide author needs to set up the new masteries. As such, they will be different than the masteries you see in-game.
Unlike the others i decided to do a full build cause there aren't any. Now this build is great it has great burst begining and tanky to end the game.
well i thought hey its domination no need to be tanky with jaravn so most of the rune are for damage and armor pen
this is a combo of damge and tanky using the armr and magic resist and the else on damage.
i would get the blade and boot for damage speed and health. then phage which is like a upgrade. After awhile you should have mercury the blade and frozen mallet. The team is thinking Great tanky and damaging champion. well good now get atma so you can get armor and more damage. After that warmog so more health and damage. Then get entrophy. Most likely u wouldve won but this is op. With ur ability to slow.. and frozen mallet now this the champion would be walking your teammate can pick them off one by one. If not get sunfire to get some armor.
Skill Sequence
i would max out the spear and flag. With this you can get combo, after that can get the slow ability. thats that.
Summoner Spells
exhaust like i said you have alot of slow already now they cant move well then can but i hope you get what i mean. With ghost you can hurry middle or run away.
Pros / Cons
well pro great slower
lots of health able to act as a tank.
good damage.
bad jarvan horrible without teamates unless he finishing them off.
will fail at chasing squishy players shaco etc.
Team Work
needed for him this is why he always go middle to fight for wind. or solo bottom intill they get middle. works both ways.
Unique Skills
i love his uti one good for chasing. two seprate the weak ones from strong ones.
his combo is unqie in beginng cause no champion has combos like his.
flag speak knock them up... etc
the **** from ur publisher

The Camden project print ideas... So I wanted to mix the graffiti I had seen round and about the area. A busy pattern to be seen obscured by my white chiffons and silks. This is one of many that i had thought about, original painted on A1 then altered through Photoshop, no thanks to the Scanners!
This would be the main patter to be repeater.
Here is an idea of what I would be looking for... I think it looks great!

Backbone, that's what local communities need when confronting an overzealous federal government and their legions of bureaucratic thugs. A sheriff from Elkhart County in Indiana defended a farmer from FDA agents and their collaborators in the DOJ. These government officials were trying to run this man out of business simply because he sells raw milk. The Sheriff sent the following notice.
Shortly after the email was sent, the farmer received a certified letter from the DOJ that said his grand jury subpoena had been cancelled. No federal inspectors have visited the farm since 2011.
"Your local elected officials … can stem the tide of federal overreach if they apply just a little backbone in supporting and defending the Constitution. Expect it! Demand it!," Rogers wrote. "Some bloggers and natural food writers have hailed me as a hero. I'm no hero. I'm just doing my job
Defending the Constitution isn't that easy when Washington D.C. has little to no regard for the rule of law.

Geochemistry Division forms an integral part of CSIR-NGRI and is involved in various research programs related to the earth's crust and its interior. The activities are focused to better understand the geodynamic evolution of the earth's crust, potentiality and the genesis of ore deposits across the country. The approach towards addressing these complex scientific problems involves multi-disciplinary studies that include field geology, petrography, whole rock geochemistry, mineral geochronology (U-Pb zircon, phosphates and Pb-Pb baddellyite) and radiogenic isotopes. The group contributed immensely in past decade towards understanding the evolution of Archean continental crust in southern India, the origin of Early life, gold and iron mineralization, depositional environments. The geochemistry division has state-of-the art analytical facilities, and has long standing successful collaborations with reputed international research groups.
The primary focus of The geochronology and radiogenic isotopic research at CSIR-NGRI is on Zircon (ZrSio4) from a wide range of stratigraphic and tectonic settings encompassing the different geographic domains of India, understanding the linkage between surface processes, volcanism, sedimentation and tectonics during the Quaternary Period utilizing the geologic record of the Indian sub-continent, both online and offshore and evolution of atmospheric Oxygen, since the Early Archean. This research work is synergised by a combination of Q-ICPMS, MC-ICPMS, 213 nm ND-YAG LA System, EPMA and SEM-CL.

Meeting Elon Musk, a pretty approachable billionaire!
Meeting Elon Musk, a pretty approachable billionaire!
You lucky dog! We got to chat with George B. at the test drive. He approached us as we left the car and asked us what we thought. I know he is a super busy guy, but he continued to chat and tell us his own stories of getting to borrow an S for a weekend, while he waited for his. He hushed a few employees that were requesting his assistance. Just mind blowing to see someone of that value to just put it all aside and chat with no pressure. He even took a picture with us.
A memory will never forget.
I always dream of meeting Elon someday and getting him to sign the dash of our S...
@ riceuguy
"so I was able to have them cover the airs" ...think you meant "cover their ears" right?
Glad to hear the Austin store is now open. Hope my relatives and friends in the Austin/San Antonio area will go and take a look. Know they are probably tired of hearing me talk "Tesla" all the time.
Funny how the first B can make some people unapproachable while spending it down to near zero on new ventures then building it back up can make fine people that much better.
@CnJsSigP, that's what I would want to do too, have a real "Signature" model. Though I'm not sure where exactly I would want it signed. The right side of the dash on the wood trim with a silver sharpie might be cool, though it would also be cool to have a signature on the outside somewhere and then put clear coat over it lol.
I ran into Mr. Musk at a film premiere in LA, right in the midst of the Broder-NYT mess. I'm generally not in the habit of introducing myself to folks I don't know. However, I couldn't miss the chance to introduce myself to him by reservation number. He chuckled when I extended my hand saying, "Hi, I'm number 17, 9XX!" The neat thing was his unbridled excitement about the car, late in the evening, after sitting through a movie and standing around for hours at an event, at the end of what must have been a hellish day. In the midst of a sea of huge egos, here was a personable, approachable guy with genuine enthusiasm for his product. At a human level, it is now even easier to join his vision for Tesla and electric vehicles.
Why can't employes answer questions in Texas legally?
Seems very very strange and would seem to be a big hiderence to sales.
This I gotta heat.
@celtrog - Texas = Big Oil = even bigger money (think billionaire Koch brothers). I seriously doubt they like the competition the EV market may present. And they have the puppet Governor Rick Perry who will help put up whatever roadblocks they want. Seems to me that stopping Tesla reps from talking about price or providing delivery specialists in their state is contrary to the capitalist world they claim to promote. Freedom of Speech should prevail.
Buying a car from Tesla in Texas can be a painful experience...the fact that Tesla has made the progress it has in an industry that snuffs out innovation is nothing short of a miracle. I think we are very fortunate that someone like Elon Musk came along when he did, and had the help of a President who believes in renewable energy/technology. I'm excited about getting the infrastructure here in Texas, so we can really see some Teslas in the wild! I'm so excited about Tesla and the incredible ride. I am hoping Elon will come to Houston for a similar event when our service center finally opens.
It's not an anti-EV thing in Texas. It's a pro-car dealer thing.
Texans are nothing if not absolutely sure they are right. They will be one of the last to get their head removed from ........
Disclaimer, my father's side is from Texas. I have relatives that go back 200 years in a cemetery in New Boston. I love Texas but sometimes they can not see even the very blatant contradictions that Neech spells out.
There are three things I love about Tesla-
The Car
The Company
and The........ crap, I forgot the last. My bad.
Yeah that's the popular thing to do with mustangs and cobras. Get ol' Shelby to sign the passenger side of the dash panel with a silver paint pen. I have the carbon inserts and think that would look awesome, not to mention, like you said, it would be a true Signature edition!
I think with Carroll passed away, Elon is the next big car industry game changer. He definitely has made the new version of the performance car. That's how Shelby got started.
I met Elon at the opening of the Washington DC store a couple years ago. His approach ability and sincere belief in what he was doing was the final thing that made me put my deposit on the S that night.

Chemistry and the Global Climate Agreement
At the 2015 Conference of the Parties (COP-21) of the United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change (UNFCCC), world leaders agreed to a global action plan known as the Paris Agreement. The Agreement is designed to curb greenhouse gas emissions and mobilize global political will to address the climate change challenge. Successful implementation of the Paris Agreement hinges in large part on contributions from the private sector. For global chemical manufacturers, that means continuing to do what we do best: innovate. Innovation requires a consistent, supportive policy and regulatory environment to reach its full potential and to allow industry to develop and implement solutions to address global sustainability challenges.
Chemistry is the backbone of energy efficient products and technologies that help enable a more sustainable future. Although greenhouse gas is emitted in the manufacture of chemical products, the use of the products downstream and in other sectors can help save more energy and emissions than what is required to produce them. To that end, ICCA has developed multiple energy technology roadmaps and life cycle assessment tools to help businesses up and down the value chain realize new gains in energy efficiency while reducing the environmental footprints of their operations.
Innovations that Enable Sustainability
The products of chemistry help make possible new energy efficient technologies and materials needed for sustainable construction and urban mobility, including new insulation, adhesives, sealants and lightweight materials used by both the construction and transport sectors. Nearly all renewable energy sources and technologies – wind, solar, natural gas and new vehicle technologies – depend on innovations in chemistry to become more efficient, affordable and scalable. Chemistry also helps revolutionize energy storage with advanced battery technology.
See Key findings from a technical report by Ecofys
Roadmaps to a Cleaner, More Efficient World
ICCA's Building Technology Roadmap describes how the increased use of chemically derived building products could help the residential and commercial buildings sectors achieve significant reductions in energy use and greenhouse gas emissions by 2050. A second technology roadmap, Energy and GHG Reductions in the Chemical Industry via Catalytic Processes, outlines several ways in which catalysts can be used to reduce energy use for high-volume manufacturing processes while curbing greenhouse gas emissions worldwide.
Tools For Tracing Our Impact, Start to Finish
Life Cycle Assessment (LCA) is a tool that chemical manufacturers use to systematically evaluate the environmental, social and economic impacts of our products over their entire life cycle. ICCA's Avoided Emissions Guidelines demonstrates how companies can employ LCA to quantify the environmental impact of their products from production, to use, to safe disposal. Five case studies accompany the report, illustrating how companies have used the guidelines to calculate the amount of emissions saved by their products across the value chain.
Innovations That ENABLE SUSTAINABILITY
A Net Gain in Emissions Savings
According to a groundbreaking 2009 study by McKinsey & Company, Innovations for Greenhouse Gas Reductions, a world without chemistry would be a world with significantly higher – up to 11 percent higher – GHG emissions.
That's because, for every one unit of CO2 emitted in the manufacturing of the products of chemistry, two units of CO2 are saved through the energy savings enabled by those products. By 2030, the GHG savings-to-emissions ratio could increase from 2:1 to 4:1.
Below is a list of some popular energy-saving products and technologies which chemistry helps make possible.
Beyond Innovation, Our Actions Contribute to Sustainability
The global chemical industry is best recognized for creating the products that help others improve sustainability. For decades, however, we've also been hard at work improving energy efficiency and reducing GHG emissions at our own operations – even as production has increased.
Roadmaps To A CLEANER, MORE EFFICIENT WORLD
Building Technology Roadmap
Of all the energy that is used around the world, nearly one-third is consumed by the buildings sector. ICCA's Building Technology Roadmap explores the potential energy and GHG savings from five chemically-derived building technologies: insulation, pipe and pipe insulation, air sealing, reflective roof coatings and pigments, and windows. According to our technology roadmap, combining ambitious building efficiency improvements with lower-carbon fuels could lead to a 41 percent reduction in energy use and a 70 percent reduction in GHG emissions by 2050.
Catalytic Processes Roadmap
ICCA's Energy and GHG Reductions in the Chemical Industry via Catalytic Processes is a technology roadmap that explores how the chemical industry can harness catalysis and other related technologies to boost energy efficiency in production processes. By increasing the rate of a chemical reaction, catalysts can effectively improve the energy efficiency of the reaction. The technology roadmap describes a combination of several pathways that could help cut energy use by 13 exajoules by 2050 and curb greenhouse gas (GHG) emission rates 1 gigatonne of CO2 equivalent.
Tools ForTRACING OUR IMPACT, START TO FINISH
The Value of the Life Cycle Assessment
Conducting a life cycle assessment (LCA) means taking account of the environmental, social and economic impacts of a product over its entire life cycle.
ICCA members employ LCA to evaluate these impacts throughout a product's entire lifespan, from raw material extraction through materials processing, manufacturing, distribution, use, repair and maintenance, and eventual disposal or recycling.
We've found that, over the course of their lifespan, various chemical industry products emit fewer GHG emissions when compared to conventional products or the market average. For that reason, LCA is critical to assessing – and ultimately improving – the sustainability of chemical products.
ICCA's executive guide, How to Know If and When it's Time to Commission a Life Cycle Assessment, is a primer on life cycle thinking and how companies around the globe can use LCA to quantify the important contributions their products make toward creating a more sustainable economy.
Helping Others Become Champions Of Life Cycle Assessment
ICCA has developed a set of guidelines that employ life cycle assessment to help companies and their value chain customers achieve a better understanding of the avoided greenhouse gas emissions of their products.
Addressing the Avoided Emissions Challenge
ICCA's Avoided Emissions Guidelines are designed to help make the process of managing, conducting and communicating life cycle assessments more consistent.
The guidelines enable companies to compare greenhouse gas emissions along the life cycle of two products of equal benefit to users.
With a more accurate picture of a product's environmental performance, businesses along the value chain can be more confident in the sustainability of their purchasing decisions.
Avoided Emissions Case Studies
ICCA's avoided emissions case studies exemplify the use of the Avoided Emissions Guidelines. Each case study is intended to reinforce the importance of using a consistent, harmonized and methodical approach when calculating avoided emissions. The case studies also highlight the chemical industry's commitment to enhancing transparency and improving the sustainability of chemical products.

Achieving ambitious sustainability goals requires that industry, governments, academia and others work together. Our partners in sustainability have played a key role in helping industry improve the way we assess our environmental performance, and they have helped us better identify and communicate the vast potential chemical products hold in helping countries meet and exceed their sustainability objectives.
ICCA and WBCSD
The World Business Council for Sustainable Development (WBCSD) is a CEO-led organization of forward-thinking companies that helps drive debate and policy change in favor of sustainable development solutions.
ICCA and the WBCSD first joined together in 2012 for a chemical sector sustainability project called Reaching Full Potential. The aim of the project was "to help the chemical sector harmonize approaches to sustainability measurement and define collaborative value chain solutions in order to scale up sustainable business solutions across the sector's value chains."
Our first objective was to develop practical guidelines to improve consistency in the assessment and reporting of avoided emissions. WBCSD drew upon existing life cycle assessment studies, company presentations, and expertise from participating chemical companies. Our work culminated in the ICCA and WBCSD's Avoided Emissions Guidelines, released in 2013.
ICCA and IEA
The International Energy Agency (IEA) is an international energy forum comprising 29 industrialized countries under the Organization for Economic Development and Cooperation (OECD). IEA's overarching goal is to ensure reliable, affordable and clean energy for its member countries and beyond.
ICCA teamed up with IEA to develop our 2013 technology roadmap, Energy and GHG Reductions in the Chemical Industry via Catalytic Processes. Around 90 percent of chemical manufacturing processes use catalysis, and ICCA's partnership with IEA helped us further explore how the chemical industry can use catalysts and other related technology to boost energy efficiency and reduce GHG emissions in manufacturing processes.
We also joined IEA for a Global Industry Experts Dialogue Workshop at their Paris headquarters in 2014. There, we helped to explore the role of catalysis and other game-changing innovations can play in meeting climate targets of the Energy Technology Perspectives 2015 project.

"There are far fewer Yazidi refugees on Mount Sinjar than previously feared and they are in better condition than previously believed," Xinhua quoted Defence Department spokesman John Kirby as saying.
Kirby noted that the refugees continue to have access to the food and water that the US troops have dropped.
On Wednesday, a team of less than 20 US personnel conducted an assessment of the situation on Mount Sinjar and the impact of US military actions to date, Kirby said.
The team did not engage in combat operations and all personnel have returned safely by military air to Erbil, the capital of Iraq's autonomous Kurdish region, the spokesman said.
The White House said earlier on Wednesday that the establishment of humanitarian corridors and airlifts are among options being considered by President Barack Obama to evacuate the Iraqi civilians trapped by the Islamic militants on the mountain.

The bill amends the Corrections Act 1986 and the Sentencing Act 1991, and there are essentially, as the house is aware, two main parts of the bill. Firstly, the Corrections Act will be amended to provide for a presumption against parole for prisoners serving terms arising from particular fatal offences or when the body or the remains of a victim have not been located. A court will be able to take into account those factors at the time of sentencing.
The bill also amends the Corrections Act to tighten the conditions to be met before a prisoner serving a sentence with a non-parole period for the murder of a police officer can be considered for parole.
As I have said, these are both matters where the coalition has led the debate and both matters where there were bills before Parliament, and now we have the government, with the corrections system totally out of control, panicking and seeking to seize control of the agenda. And of course they have shown absolutely no leadership on the issue of crime. Indeed they seem to be entirely bereft of policy ideas.
It is fortunate that we do have an opposition of the calibre we have so that leadership can come from somewhere. It has to come from somewhere, and it is all coming from this side of the house.
In debating these amendments to the Corrections Act we could well be taking legislative remedies much further than those proposed by this bill, because we have a prison system today that is marked by dysfunction, that is marked by chaos.
We know we have prisoners being caught cultivating and growing drugs in prison gardens. We have had a significant increase in the number of deaths in custody. We have had prisoners refusing to work, indeed even going on strike
at Barwon Prison. If the government cannot even control prisoners in a maximum security facility like Barwon, how can it possibly control the rest of the prison population across the state?
We have had vicious attacks on prison officers and prison staff — people guilty of doing nothing more than simply going about their daily tasks and trying to keep order in prisons. For that they have suffered severely.
Last June we had the worst prison riot in the history of Victoria. The Metropolitan Remand Centre was trashed, with some $95 million worth of damage done and literally hundreds of maximum security beds put out of action. The list goes on. There is plenty of material there. It is a system that is spinning out of control.
One of the most troubling aspects of the corrections system at the moment — perhaps driving more disruption, more bad behaviour and more disorder — is the flood of contraband we are seeing coming into the system. Drugs and other items, some perhaps even more dangerous than drugs, are being tossed over the wall at Port Phillip Prison and made easily accessible to those inside.
We have a corrections system that is in tatters, yet today we are debating only two aspects and those are matters where the leadership has come entirely from the coalition. The government is bereft of any policy idea or any concept of how to resolve A chaotic and ineffective prison system.
Despite the crime epidemic and despite the government's glossy publications — their preference for stunts, for media releases and for statements instead of doing the hard grind of policy work — we have simply spin.
Good policy work is something that has been entirely absent from the tenure of this government; indeed any policy work has been relatively scarce. It is about spin. It is about quick fixes.
To go back to the bill before the house, in its simplest form this is a bill that implements previously announced policies of the coalition. The first, of course, was encapsulated in the Corrections Amendment (No body, no parole) Bill 2016, which was passed by the Legislative Council on 17 August. When it was transmitted to the Assembly later that day, as members will be aware, the bill was defeated on the question of the first reading.
It is worth noting that in the Council the bill was opposed by the government and it was opposed by the Greens, and in the Assembly it was similarly opposed by both those groupings and of course also by the member for Shepparton, who I understand may be making a contribution later this afternoon. Yet a few short months later here we are, debating a bill that is essentially the same.
Yes, there has been some tweaking. Under the coalition bill the offences for which the legislation applied were intended to be murder and conspiracy to commit murder, and this bill adds accessory to murder and manslaughter, so there are four offences rather than simply two. The coalition bill required the Adult Parole Board of Victoria to consider any report from the Chief Commissioner of Police about the cooperation of the prisoner concerned, as does this bill, but it adds the requirement that regard must be had to any report from the Secretary of the Department of Justice and Regulation as to whether the prisoner is suitable for release.
The bill also specifies other factors that must be considered by the adult parole board in considering whether parole should be granted, but it is indeed a very similar piece of legislation to that opposed by the government, the Greens and the member for Shepparton just a few short months ago.
I understand from the debate that the Greens are likely to maintain their position of opposition to this legislation. I guess we will just have to wait and observe the government members executing what will certainly be an inelegant backflip, but they have come to their senses, perhaps not too late but certainly very close to it.
The second part of the legislation refers to another matter which members on this side, and particularly Mr O'Donohue in the other place, have again been leading the debate on. That is in the announced intention, which was flagged in the other place, to retain in custody an individual who has been sentenced to life but with a non-parole period and who was of course convicted of the Russell Street bombings, and I do not intend to name that person.Of course there is a distinction between the coalition proposal in this instance and the proposal that has been put forward by the government in the form of this bill. It was the intention of the coalition that any legislation would be applicable to one person — and I recognise you need to be very careful when you consider that sort of thing — whereas this bill will in fact create a class of persons to which restrictions will apply.
I understand from the briefing — and I thank the department and the minister's office for providing the briefing — that the proposed changes will apply to three people only, but we should be aware that if we support this bill, as the coalition has already committed to do, then we are creating a class of persons that while currently only numbering three could be significantly larger in the longer term.
Some people have expressed concern to me about creating a new class of offenders, particularly the possibility that if a person has murdered a police officer, then effectively they have nothing left to lose except perhaps their life, and if they are not caught and commit subsequent crimes, those crimes may in fact be significantly worse.
But I come to this place with the view that those who protect the community on the front line — the men and women of Victoria Police — deserve the greatest protection that the Parliament legislatively can afford them, and I believe the bill before the house will achieve that outcome. That is why I believe it is worthy of support and that is why I will be voting for the bill.
There is of course the unanswered question about why the only class proposed in this bill is police officers. I think there is a legitimate question about why protective services officers were not included and why the law was not proposed to extend to all frontline emergency services workers, but it is a good start, and if we need to extend it to other frontline responders, then we can further amend the act.
I conclude by indicating that I think it is unfortunate that we are asked to deal with this legislation in such a very short period. Both these issues have been on the agenda for some time. There was the opportunity for the government to act much earlier than it has, and it is unfortunate that it did not do so.
