As far as we're aware, motorcyclists don't waist their time fighting windmills, so these pictures are just part of a funny way to promote the Red Bull Don Quixote 2 enduro race for couples in Spain. The original idea is quite funny, especially because of the fact that the brave knights look so unenthusiastic about their 1hp. We have also attached the trailer after the jump.
1 comments:
That is rather an interesting video. Well, I though that it was for a green message. A message to be clean with air as I know that those kinds of bikes burns a lot of fuel and they produce a lot of carbon emission. Anyways, I hope that I can watch the race soon. Even as replays.

He answered the question I asked. I would prefer that leather tanks get their own armors, but the answer given appears to be correct.
The result of this will be heavy demand for agility leather as it becomes the gear for 7 class/spec combinations, passing the old leader of 5 class/specs wanting dps plate. It will result in rogues directly competing for gear with 2 of the 5 tanks, lowering their desirability in raids and groups.
Regarding the guardian and brewmaster tanks having to wear poorly itemized gear, I expect their passive defenses will have to be balanced around that as bears currently are.

This one's almost as long as Lesko's Revenge, but I think this was more exhausting to make. If you're not familliar with Animutations, I'll tell you. Animutations are odd music videos usually set to Japanese Pokemon music. They feature all sorts of cultural icons meshed in, as well as tons of private jokes that only certain groups will get, but it all has a certain order to it that keeps you interested (hopefully.) In other words, it's WEIRD ASS SHIAAAAT.

inspired by the London Olympics? Then selecting the right music to
exercise could hold the key to running efficiently and for longer,
according to a leading sports psychologist.
Professor Andy Lane, from the University of Wolverhampton,
explains that music can trick the mind into feeling less tired
during a workout, especially repetitive movement exercises such as
Professor Lane has carried out research into the effects of
music and his advice appears on the Livewell section of the NHS
website, which features tips on healthy living.
He says: "One of the key objectives in terms of creating a
legacy following the Olympics was to get the nation active, but
getting started and staying motivated can be a challenge.
"Research suggests that listening to music while exercising can
reduce perceptions of effort and fatigue by up to 12%. If you're
listening to music while running, it can distract you from the
actual effort of running – you are listening to the beat of a song
rather than thump coming from your heartbeat.
"What's more, research suggests that if you keep in step with
the music, your stride will be more rhythmical and therefore more
efficient. Tests on walkers found that walking in time to a musical
beat improved endurance by 15%."
He explains that all music has a beats per minute (bpm) – for
example Rihanna's Don't Stop the Music has 123bpm. Most people find
150bpm a gentle pace and by 190bpm they are running as hard as they
Professor Lane, from the University's School of Sport Performing
Arts and Leisure, advises that people should choose music that is
appropriate to the task when they are creating a playlist.
"If you want to go for an easy run, select music with a lower
bpm such as Search for the Hero by M People (100bpm). If you're
feeling more energetic, choose songs with a higher bpm, such as I
See You Baby by Groove Armada (128bpm). Whatever you choose, make
sure it's music you enjoy listening to," he adds.
"Music can help you get into exercise mode. Have a few
motivational songs at the start of your playlist that you can play
as you're getting ready. The simple act of pressing 'play' flicks a
switch in your mind to signal that your session has begun and in a
short time you will be out of the door."
Professor Lane's tips appear on the NHS website: http://www.nhs.uk/Livewell/c25k/Pages/running-music.aspx
Professor Andy Lane's research into music and exercise appears
in the journals referred to below – links are included.
Andy Lane is a Professor of Sport Psychology at the University
of Wolverhampton. He is accredited from the British Association of
Sport and Exercise Sciences (BASES) for scientific support and
research and Chartered Psychologist with the British Psychological
Society. He has authored more than 100 peer refereed journal
articles and edited two books.

Bad news everybody!Okay so this\'ll be short, but in all likelihood, I am going to be shutting this page down. It\'s expensive (very), and I do not think it\'s needed anymore given the success of GOG.com, Abandonia, and a few others. I simply don\'thave the time to keep it up and running, nor can do I have the time to make it the kickass community that I think it needs to be. I tried to ping abandonia about taking it over, but I never got a response. if anyone else has any alternative ideas, drop me a line at admin at hotud.org and we can figure something out.

Decent game, if you can overlook the bugs and difficulty.
This game was fun, but by no means a classic. One of the few games that I had the luxury of playing with peripherals other than a keyboard and mouse, this game does fare well with a joystick and a driving wheel, but control was not where this game has trouble. Fraught with bugs and annoyingly difficult missions, such as the numerous 'escort' missions which are made worse with poor AI, the game still holds up thanks to it's funky style and fun action scenes. Bizarre terrain and collision detection bugs further mar an otherwise enjoyable experience. Ultimately, the level of difficulty and other annoyances make this game well short of a classic, but still worth a look for fans of driving games. Certainly better than some other offerings such as Streets of Sim City.

Shocking to read that the BBC is taking advertising from an "Intifada" supporting Islamic bank. The excellent Undhimmi has the sordid details here (link) but this sums it up;
Among many other activities, the bank controls two funds set up at an Arab summit in Cairo, in October 2000 – the Al-Quds Fund and the Al-Aqsa Fund. Between them worth hundreds of millions of dollars, these funds openly finance the 'Palestinian Intifada'. It is also linked with the channeling of UN funds to Hamas.
Stated aims of the fund include the provision of assistance to the widows and families left behind by 'martyrs'; and the furtherance of the 'resistance' against Israel.So there you have it. The BBC, a British Government-funded quasi-NGO, is taking advertising money from a bank which pays the families of homicide bombers and terrorists. Surprised?
WHY is the BBC taking advertising from such a terror-supporting organisation on one of it's news portals outside the UK? Shouldn't a major news organisation pick this up and ask some pointed question of the BBC? When people question BBC impartiality this only confirms their worst suspicions.

Pal. Authority: Death Penalty for Selling Land to Jews
"Israel's peace partner reaffirmed on Sunday that Palestinians convicted of selling land to Jews would face the death penalty for "high treason."
PA officials claim the death penalty deters Arabs from selling land to Jews living in Judea and Samaria, which they envision free of Jewish residents in a future Palestinian state.
But one Palestinian affairs expert said while such laws may deter the sale of land, they give credence to the perception of Palestinian terrorism.
Dr. Hillel Frisch of the Begin-Sadat Center for Strategic Studies at Bar-Ilan University said imposing the death penalty for the sale of land is "pretty stringent in the modern conception of human rights."
"It certainly reflects that a Palestinian democracy has already been placed in the coffin a long time ago," Dr. Frisch told CBN News. "The idea even of a semi-liberal state is long past us," he said.

Stuxnet malware is 'weapon' out to destroy …
Iran's Bushehr nuclear plant? (link) The Christian Science Monitor
The cyber worm, called Stuxnet, has been the object of intense study since its detection in June. As more has become known about it, alarm about its capabilities and purpose have grown. Some top cyber security experts now say Stuxnet's arrival heralds something blindingly new: a cyber weapon created to cross from the digital realm to the physical world – to destroy something.
The Stuxnet malware has infiltrated industrial computer systems worldwide. Now, cyber security sleuths say it's a search-and-destroy weapon meant to hit a single target. One expert suggests it may be after Iran's Bushehr nuclear power plant.

BBC wilfully violates own charter
In blatant display of bias over UN report slating Israel by Robin Shepherd
In one of the most disgraceful displays of wilful bias that you will ever have the misfortune to witness, the BBC today (link) covers a UN Human Rights Council report which castigates Israel over the Mavi Marmara flotilla incident in the Mediterranean Sea earlier this year.
The incident left nine pro-terror activists dead after they attacked Israeli soldiers in a bid for martyrdom. Gleefully, the BBC quotes the report as accusing Israel in the following terms:…..
There is just no way out of this for the BBC. This isn't journalism, it's political propaganda. And since that violates the BBC's own charter, the journalists and editors should be held to account.

Negotiating in the Middle East
How The Other Side Sees It From the "Hudson New York"
by Mark Silverberg @ http://tinyurl.com/2v5bdhz
As Harold Rhode, recently of the Pentagon's Office of Net Assessment, wrote for the Jerusalem Center for Public Affairs, it is crucial to understand the mindset of our enemies. Dealing specifically with Iran, but implying that the Arab dictators and despots of the Middle East move to the same beat, Rhode concludes that the paradigms that govern U.S. foreign policy in the Middle East today are totally at odds with the paradigms that actually govern the actions of our enemies. As Rhode notes: Compromise, as we understand the concept, is seen by the other side "as a sign of submission and weakness" that brings shame and dishonor on those – and on the families of those – who concede. Our efforts at compromise, contrition, accommodation and appeasement are perceived as symbolic of our weakness; and our attempts to find common cause with our enemies merely reinforce their belief that we are "paper tigers," to use bin Laden's term, and easy prey. "It is for this reason that good-will and confidence-building measures should be avoided at all costs," he says, as our Western cultural biases make it easy to misunderstand the true intentions of our enemies.

The Gaza Strip (link): by Khaled Abu Toameh Hudson New York
The Palestinian and Israeli negotiators and their US sponsors are continuing to ignore the facts on the ground — namely that a radical, Iranian-funded Islamist state already exists, and it is in the Gaza Strip.
It would have been more useful for the peace process had Washington demanded that Abbas find a solution to the split between the West Bank and Gaza Strip before dragging him to the negotiating table.

What is acid reflux? Adults usually refer to it as heartburn. Acid reflux in babies, also called Gastroesophageal Reflux, (GER) occurs when the muscle at the entrance of the stomach, is not strong enough to keep the acids inside. This then leads to pain, and results in your baby spitting up a lot more than usual.
This problem is regularly dismissed as colic, fortunately nowadays we can actually do something about acid reflux.
Acid reflux is usually worse for around 1 – 4 months and stops between 6 months to a year.
* Baby reflux may be due to an oversupply of milk, or a forceful "let down". Mom will need to express some of her milk before breastfeeding, so that her baby does not swallow air whilst feeding.
* Reflux is sometimes due to the muscle of the baby's stomach, not being mature enough yet. Premature babies are at increased risk of reflux.
* Food allergies can also cause acid reflux in babies.
* Mom could try to eliminate dairy, to rule out a dairy allergy. Infant formula and some medication, including herbal MEDs, may cause acid reflux symptoms.
* Anything new in a mother's diet, or in a baby's diet, could cause reflux in baby. Common culprit acid reflux foods include: tomatoes, citrus fruits, high fat foods, spicy foods, processed foods and anything acidic.
* Swallowing of unnecessary air can cause acid reflux in babies; this usually happens when a baby is restless whilst breastfeeding. It is always a good idea to breastfeed Baby in a calm, quiet surrounding, to minimize distractions. Always feed your baby before he/she gets too hungry.
* Baby might be experiencing a growth spurt, and therefore drinking at a faster pace and feeding more often than usual.
* Hereditary factors can also increase the occurrence of acid reflux in babies.
* A common acid reflux cause: When the introduction of solids occurs before Baby is ready.
So, should a Mother continue to breastfeed, if her baby has GER?
Yes, it has been found that acid reflux in babies, that are breastfed, is less severe and painful. There has also been evidence, that some GER babies who are breastfed, have no symptoms at all.
Breastfeeding triggers a movement in the gastrointestinal tract, that helps move food within the intestines. Breast milk digests much easier than formula, which therefore reduces the chances of acid reflux occurrence in a breastfed baby.
Another reason why breastfeeding is a superior option: babies that are breastfed, are held more upright when fed, which in turn keeps the acid down.
* Frequent burping and hiccups in babies.
* Frequent spitting up.
* Reflux causes poor sleep.
* Poor weight gain.
* Fussiness can be a sign of acid reflux.
* Difficulty swallowing.
* Wanting to nurse more frequent or less frequent.
* Bad breath.
* Arching the neck and back, as if in pain.
* An acid reflux child may have many chest and ear infections.
* An acid reflux toddler, may sleepwalk at night.
(GERD – infant acid reflux disease)
Baby will need reflux treatment or therapy.
* Uncontrollable crying and fussing.
* Poor weight gain or excessive weight loss.
* In Severe acid reflux cases, children vomit up blood.
* Breathing problems.
Helping Baby with GER and Preventing Acid Reflux in Babies
* Get your baby positioned as upright as possible while nursing, this will keep the acid down. Try walking while nursing.
* Reflux in babies can often be prevented by burping them often and efficiently.
* Breastfeed more often, and for no longer than 10 minutes at a time; the more milk your baby has in his/her stomach, the more discomfort he/she will experience.
* Ensure a good latch, to guarantee less air intake.
* Keep reflux infants motionless for a few minutes after feedings, this will keep most of the milk from coming up. Avoid any pressure on your baby's abdomen.
* Breastfeed your baby during times when he/she is more relaxed.
* Do not smoke or keep your baby in the vicinity of tobacco smoke.
* Caffeine intake should be reduced.
* Thickening feeds to reduce stomach reflux is not advised, as it results in: increased coughing after feedings, it is less nutritive, it increases the chances of diabetes in babies, increases the chances of infections and can lead to a low breast milk supply.
* Babies with acid reflux, sleep better on their tummies, propped up at a 30 degree angle. Acid reflux infants experience more pain when they are left to lie on their backs at night.
* Carrying Baby in a breastfeeding sling, can help keep your baby in an upright position, near his/her source of food, as well as feeling comforted.
* Change Baby's diaper before feedings, as this will ensure less movement after a feeding.
* Acid reflux babies should wear loose clothing, to prevent pressure on their tummies.
* Avoid long trips in a car seat. The slouched over position can aggravate GER.
* Always let your baby finish at one breast, before offering the other, even if you need to pump the other side. Doing this will ensure that Baby drinks the essential hind milk. This will also decrease the likeliness of acid reflux.

'Even though I know how to play the class and have tanked successful Heroic and 10 man raid content I still get the "we are not looking for any DK's".'
That isn't because of class disrespect; it's because they likely had 4-5 already. Since x-mas, any 5-man PUG group is guaranteed to have at least one DK, and raids far more (Heck, I had 6 in my last VoA 10-man).
The numbers may show 13% overall, but I would guess the percentage of L80 toons who are casuals or alts is quite a bit higher. And frankly it is becoming a minor annoyance for those of us who PUG and roll on the same tier pieces.

The newest theory today is that facial aging is the result mostly of loss of fat in the face which speeds up a little sagging. For what it's worth, here's a new technique that uses a combination procedure to rejuvenate the face.
First, they remove small amounts of fat, usually from the hips, which is then concentrated and transferred into areas of the face that need some filling in such as the lips, eyebrows, and cheeks. The second half of this procedure uses special threads to lift the eyebrows. They're called Aptos Threads and they're tiny uni-directional threads that hold the tissue in place until it scars in place, thereby holding the eyebrows up.
"We can suspend the eyebrows, bring this whole area up without having to make that giant scar over the brow. We can do it for the mid-face to make the mid-face high and lovely in here and correct this defect which people complain about terribly, that raccoon look, which I'm going to correct today in this patient, and also the neck," says Dr. Lewis Feder, dermatologist.
"I had the Aptos Threads done in my forehead, so now my eyebrows are arched higher, which open up my eyes, which I think was a great improvement," says Jackie Rohrscheidt, facelift patient.
So, $3,000 later, Jackie is happy. And I guess that's what it's all about -- making the patient feel good about herself or himself.
The Aptos Threads are not used in Lubbock yet. They're not even FDA approved yet. One Lubbock plastic surgeon told me the threading is actually limited to patients who do not have sagging skin and just want a lift, as in more arch to the eyebrows. But this is one more example of the many new options becoming available to turn back the clock or change your look without going into major surgery.
