NUVIGIL is contraindicated in patients with known hypersensitivity to modafinil or armodafinil or its inactive ingredients.
Serious rash, including Stevens-Johnson Syndrome (SJS), requiring hospitalization and discontinuation of treatment, has been reported in adults in association with the use of armodafinil and modafinil, and in children in association with use of modafinil.
NUVIGIL has not been studied in pediatric patients in any setting and is not approved for use in pediatric patients for any indication.
In pediatric clinical trials of modafinil, a racemic mixture of S- and R-modafinil (the latter is armodafinil), cases of serious rash including possible SJS and apparent multi-organ hypersensitivity reaction have been reported. Several of the cases were associated with fever and other abnormalities (e.g., vomiting, leukopenia). No serious skin rashes have been reported in adult clinical trials of modafinil. Rare cases of serious or life-threatening rash, including SJS, Toxic Epidermal Necrolysis (TEN) and Drug Rash with Eosinophilia and Systemic Symptoms (DRESS) have been reported in adults and children in postmarketing experience with modafinil.
No serious skin rashes were reported in adult clinical trials of armodafinil. However, cases of serious rash similar to those observed with modafinil including skin and mouth blistering have been reported in adults in postmarketing experience.
There are no factors, including duration of therapy, that are known to predict the risk of occurrence or the severity of rash. Although benign rashes occur with NUVIGIL, it is not possible to reliably predict which rashes will prove to be serious. NUVIGIL should ordinarily be discontinued at the first sign of rash unless the rash is clearly not drug-related.
Cases of angioedema and hypersensitivity (with rash, dysphagia, and bronchospasm) were observed among patients treated with NUVIGIL. Multi-organ hypersensitivity reactions, including at least one fatality postmarketing, have occurred in close temporal association to the initiation of modafinil. Patients should be advised to discontinue NUVIGIL and immediately report to their physician any signs or symptoms suggesting multi-organ hypersensitivity, angioedema or anaphylaxis.
Patients should be advised that their level of wakefulness may not return to normal. Although NUVIGIL has not been shown to produce functional impairment, any drug affecting the CNS may alter judgment, thinking or motor skills. Patients should be frequently reassessed for their degree of sleepiness and functional impairment and, if appropriate, advised to avoid driving or any other potentially dangerous activity.
Psychiatric adverse experiences have been reported in patients treated with modafinil. Postmarketing adverse events associated with the use of modafinil have included mania, delusions, hallucinations, suicidal ideation and aggression, some resulting in hospitalization. In controlled trials in adults administered NUVIGIL, psychiatric symptoms resulting in treatment discontinuation were anxiety, agitation, nervousness, and irritability. Caution should be exercised when NUVIGIL is given to patients with a history of psychosis, depression, or mania. Consider discontinuing NUVIGIL if psychiatric symptoms develop.
Patients with a recent history of myocardial infarction or unstable angina should be treated with caution. NUVIGIL should not be used in patients with a history of left ventricular hypertrophy or in patients with mitral valve prolapse who have experienced mitral valve prolapse syndrome when previously receiving CNS stimulants. There were also a greater proportion of patients on NUVIGIL requiring new or increased use of antihypertensive medications compared to patients on placebo. Increased monitoring of blood pressure may be appropriate in patients on NUVIGIL.
NUVIGIL may interact with drugs that inhibit, induce, or are metabolized by cytochrome P450 isoenzymes. The effectiveness of steroidal contraceptives may be reduced when used with NUVIGIL and for one month after discontinuation of therapy. The concomitant use of NUVIGIL and alcohol has not been studied and should be avoided.
In clinical trials, the most commonly reported adverse events (≥5%) were headache, nausea, dizziness, and insomnia. Most adverse experiences were rated as mild to moderate.
NUVIGIL is a Schedule IV controlled substance because it has the potential to be abused or lead to dependence. Physicians should follow patients closely, especially those with a history of drug and/or stimulant abuse.
Physicians should be aware and inform their patients of the availability of a Medication Guide for NUVIGIL.
Please see Full Prescribing Information for NUVIGIL.
There is a registry for women who become pregnant during treatment with NUVIGIL. The purpose of this registry is to collect information about the safety of NUVIGIL during pregnancy. You or your doctor can get information and enroll you in the registry by calling 1-866-404-4106 or by visiting www.NUVIGILpregnancyregistry.com.

VILNIUS, Lithuania, September 16, 2013 /PRNewswire/ --
Discussions at the 3rd IRU/EU Road Transport Conference today centred on further improving efficiency in road transport. There was agreement that effective solutions totoday's challenges will help stimulate growth. Participants also called for international trade facilitation agreements such as the UN TIR Convention to be fully respected by all signatories.
The 3rd IRU/EU Road Transport Conference, "The Road Transport Market - Competitiveness & Partnership. Transforming Challenges into Effective Solutions for Growth", held today in Vilnius, Lithuania, brought together some 200 political, transport and trade leaders from all 28 EU Member States and representatives from many Eastern Partnership states. The Conference, jointly organised by the Lithuanian Presidency of the Council of the European Union, the European Commission and the International Road Transport Union, focused on the main challenges facing the road transport industry, and how to transform these challenges into effective solutions for growth, through coordinated action at political and industry level, and called for all signatories of the UN TIR Convention to fully respect their obligations under the agreement.
Keynote speakers included the Lithuanian Minister of Transport, Rimantas Sinkevicius, the Vice President of the European Commission responsible for transport, Siim Kallas, the IRU President, Janusz Lacny and DG MOVE Director General, Matthias Ruete, amongst others.
There was a broad consensus among Conference participants that the establishment of increased cooperation and partnerships will be essential in order to meet the ongoing challenges that the sector faces and thereby stimulate growth in the EU, as well as ensure an even more efficient road transport sector. Participants thus affirmed, in order to deliver the economic growth and social and environmentally sustainable mobility needs of all EU companies and citizens:
With the view to achieve a more efficient EU road transport sector to support growth and mobility needs, the Conference addressed the following points namely to:
Rimantas Sinkevicius, EU Transport Council President and Minister for Transport, Republic of Lithuania, said, "That countries want to have long-lasting and reliable transport and logistics policy across international borders and invited participants to further develop more effective and streamlined mechanisms for international road transport and trade facilitation."
The Vice President of the European Commission, Mr Kallas, highlighted: "More and more goods are carried on the road between the EU and our neighbours. This is a good and healthy sign of closer integration of our respective markets. It will support economic growth to the benefit of everybody."
IRU President, Janusz Lacny, noted: "It should be remembered that commercial road transport is the only transport mode which provides door-to-door service and complements all other modes and so I welcome the recognition of the need for even closer partnerships with the road transport sector in order to meet today's challenges. I can only stress how such close co-operations are necessary to challenge for instance unilateral decisions taken by countries to change their compliance with international agreements, such as the United Nations TIR Convention. Only by working together can we ensure that measures taken by individuals can be stopped and thus avoid that international trade and economic development will be curtailed. It should finally be said that the IRU expects that the increased cooperation will avoid situations where increasing restrictions and costs or limiting possibilities for innovation for road transport operators will reduce competitiveness and reduce the economic viability of the many small and medium-sized road transport enterprises."

I'm not so sure this is true for all situations or electric outboard designs.
Myself I have built a submerged electric outboard from the Magmotor S28-400 with a 2-blade plastic Motor Guide prop.
The electronic controller was designed to handle both 12V and 24V input, but usually I just go for 12V as it provides enough power.
The Magmotor S28-400 is a brushed motor with a peak efficiency at 84%.
By curiosity I wanted to see how much current it consumed during full blast at 12V vs 24V with freshly charged batteries.
At 12V WOT the outboard consumed 20Amps = 240W from the battery.
At 24V WOT the outboard consumed 50Amps = 1200W from the battery.
My findings is that doubling the voltage only increase motor current by 2.5 meaning 5 times higher power consumption.
This is just a litte bit more than standard resistive power increase by a factor of 4. Far from the 8 times power increase as mentioned.
Perhaps there is some other rules if using a 3-blade prop, possibly made from heavier metal instead of lightweight plastic?
I'm soon about to start building a new outboard with a Slotless Brushless motor at high efficiency (>96%) using a 3-blade Metal Machete prop.
The sinusoidal controller will handle inputs from 9V to 50V so the current consumption at various voltages will be easy to test.
But don't hold your breath, the new build will take a few years to finish due to nice family concerns as small children taking a lot of time

I bought the mower another reviewer returned due to a gasoline leak. It was fixed by Sears. Good mower and works very well; I needed it because I have a very steep slope in my back yard. So, Sears does not offer a bagger. After much research I discovered this same mower, all made by MTD is also sold under the names of Cub Cadet and Troy Built. Get your grass catcher/bag from one of those sources. HD sells the Cub Cadet brand.

I purchased this mower and used it for 3 days on a commercial mowing contract. With in 5 minutes of use the drive belt slipped off. I had to put it back on 3 times in 15 minutes. I finally figured out what the problem was. The belt retainer post was drilled in the wrong spot and was too far away from the pulley. I bent the post towards the pulley about an 1/8th of an inch and had no further problems. I used the mower for 3 more days in super tall grass about 3 feet tall. Mower had plenty of power but laid down the grass a lot instead of cutting it. On the third day a bracket the holds the pulley belt in alignment with the pulleys bent and seized up the entire mower deck. This is not a commercial machine. I returned that mower and received a replacement mower. With the replacement I have had no issues. I think I just had a bad mower on the first one. All in all in normal grass it has tons of power and starts and runs great. It also cuts fairly well. Granted I was mowing in extremely tall grass but the bracket should not have bent on the first mower. I have not had any issues with the motor at all. I am still worried about the strength of the mower deck though.

I have had this mower for two years. I bought it to mow one lawn that's 1/2 acre. It cuts ok when the lawn is dry and not loaded with crab grass. The 12.5 motor doesn't have hardly any power at all. The reason I say this. If mowing any thick grass the motor doesn't even kick in to get more power. It just stalls out! These mowers with mulching blades are for the birds! If the lawn is wet and sounds like it's going to bog down and it will shut off, if lawn is too high. This mower makes all kinds of squeals and squeaks. I just had Sear Service come out to change drive belt, which I had to buy and supply to the service guy. It took him an hour to replace belt! I used the mower tonight and the belt fell once again. There is NO Adjustment on the belts! I put it back on and it fell off again! I know what I am doing. I had a lawn service for 30 years ! My father n law wanted me to buy Sears mower. I never owned a Sears mower ever! Now I know why! They are made like garbage! This mower is NOT even Close to a Commercial mower! I had an Ex-Mark mower with a Kawasaki 12.5 hp motor. That mower could mow a lawn that was 2 foot high and never stop!!! The only thing this mower had going for it is the Light. YOu can mow a lawn in pitch black and looks like day time outside! Also, to change the Oil is easy to change! I will miss being able to mow in the dark!

Powerful, smooth, and fairly quiet engine are high points, but this mower just doesn't cut grass well. I wanted a powerful mulching mower, but this machine simply cuts the blades and leaves them behind full length. Cut quality was also poor. Instead of "lifting" blades and cutting, this mower "flattened" some of the lawn, and left many blades uncut, leaving a lousy, matted appearance compared to my 22" Toro. Don't be fooled by the style, this is far from a commercial quality mower. As others mentioned, the controls are difficult to operate, specifically the hand drive control. Requires an unergonomic position while engaging the system. The construction otherwise is a notch above a standard mower, but not commercial. Mine had a sloppy, loose electrical harness I had to secure, but otherwise it was good quality. Bottom line: This would be a decent choice if you have a large area you just want to cut and aren't too concerned about the finished product. However, if you have a thick, well manicured lawn, I think you will be disappointed with this machine. I returned mine for a refund and am back using my $300 Toro 22". It leaves a much nicer cut, is easier to maneuver, and uses much less fuel. For my yard, I honestly think the Craftsman 33 didn't even save time, since it's heavy and a bit clumsy to operate.

I have the older Red 2007 model but there all the same, all have the same frame and deck. The yellow one they make now is a little more like mine. The engine on this one is different then on the red and yellow on, otherwise same machine. Anyway this mower does not give a clean sharp cut the first time over the grass, the blades are new, balanced and timed proper. Anyone else notice this issue. I have to mow a lawn in gear 2 or 3 and then go over everything outleast once more in gear 4 because the mower missed blades of grass and areas. After cutting over the grass the second time it comes out great but that's a lot of extra time and effort. The drive belt falls off, the bagger is made of cheap fabric instead of metal, they should have made a slay so you don't have to walk. Overall i give it a 2 out of 5. I hope they resigned this machine better in the future. If your looking for a commercial mower I would not recommend this. MTD is the manufacturer and also makes the cub cadet version.

Purchased this mower and was off and running the next day. Took a little getting used to the turns but worked it out after a couple of uses. I now cut my lawn in now half the time I used to . Only draw back is it was not as high as my old mower, but a 3 1/2 in cut still looks very nice.

So far I have used it 3 times. I am very happy with everything so far. I went from a traditional size mower to this and it has made a big difference. Like the 4 forward speeds I use them all, 4th is mostly for the back yard with long runs. Have not changed the oil yet but will do so after about 5 hours then every 10. Plan on getting a small trickle charger for the winter for the battery. Mulching works well but not as fine a my past mower but no issues. took about 2 cuts to really get it down but now I really save a lot of time. I would say about half the time as my old mower. Engine feels strong and starts first time (key only). My Set time was about 15 minutes, delivered professionally by sears. It does use a good deal gas compared to a standard mower, however the engine is much larger (I would estimate about 1-1 ? gallons an hour).

Overall appears well built. Hose into carburator leaked on first mower, had to order a replacement. Can't exchange because I purchased online. Had to order new and return old. This is a sears issue. Mower turns easy and cuts, mulches great. Must have hand strength to opperate due to pistol grips. Can't release one hand to scratch nose or blades/drive will stop. I have hills and keeping it straight on the hill is difficult on the arms. Best choice though without spending 3500.

Unbelievable. That's the one word I can use to sum up my experience with this mower. Bought it yesterday,was super pumped to get it out this morning. Checked it out, all looks good, poured gas in the tank, got about a 1/2 gallon in and gasoline started pouring out of the area where he carburetor attached to the motor. Literally POURING out all over the mower the driveway - what a mess! Upon inspection both the gasket where the fuel line goes into the carb and especially where the carb attaches to the motor, are severely misaligned. There was even a green grease pencil mark by this where someone in the factory (probably in the motor factory in China) had marked that the gaskets where screwed up.....oh well....quality defect?? No problem! Ship it out anyway!! Shame on MTD (who makes this mower) and on Sears for having ZERO quality standards in place!! Do not buy this mower or if you do, understand you have little chance of using it past its warranty!!

Prevage Body Total Transforming Anti-Aging Moisturizer by Elizabeth Arden - I have used every body cream on market. Although this is expensive, it lasts about 6 weeks when used daily and ladies, trust me it's worth it. I have repurchased and repurchased. It's not something you notice in a week. It's as if one day, maybe after 1 month of use, you will look down at your arm ( or leg) and be shocked by how young your skin looks and you will realize it's this.
Prevage Anti-Aging Overnight Cream by Elizabeth Arden - Have never found anything better. Keep coming back. Hydrating but light-textured.

Safe House: Zombie-proof and stylish to boot
It was just over a year ago that the CDC told the public how to prepare for a zombie apocalypse, tongue firmly in cheek.
Today, it ain't so funny. Following the stunning case in Miami, Fla., of a drug-addled man eating another man's face, there have been reports of horrifying cannibalistic crimes in Texas and Maryland.
Naturally, there's a Google map of these and other incidents foretelling zombie doomsday.
Ridiculous? Yes. But even the CDC weighed in on it, with spokesman David Daigle reassuring everyone that there's really no such thing as zombies.
Oh but there are more things in heaven and earth, CDC, than are dreamt of in your philosophy. … Read more

Steve Lacy: Grounded in Monk
I used to look forward to seeing Steve Lacy on his annual visits to the Iron Horse in Northampton. Few experiences made NoHo feel quite as cosmopolitan as an appearance by Lacy's Paris-based sextet, which included the American expatriates Lacy, saxophonist Steve Potts, pianist Bobby Few, and drummers Oliver Johnson or John Betsch, as well as Lacy's Swiss-born wife, singer and violinist Irene Aebi, and the French-born bassist Jean-Jacques Avinel. The group played a mix of Monk, Brechtian art song, Beat poems, melodious originals and, through the quacking sopranos of Lacy and Potts, a virtual conference of the ducks. Monk was a key centering devise in Lacy's music, so no matter how far out it got, there was usually a landing zone called Thelonious in the distance.
Decades before Monk repertory bands became prominent in jazz, Lacy was the foremost specialist in Monk's music besides Thelonious himself. His 1958 recording, Reflections: Steve Lacy Plays Thelonious Monk, was the first of its kind, and while Lacy steadily established himself as one of the most original and intriguing figures in jazz, a player who ran the stylistic gamut from New Orleans traditional to Euro post-modern, Monk's music paralleled it all.
One of the keys to understanding the devotion Lacy had to Monk centers around the notoriously challenging soprano saxophone, which Lacy settled on as his exclusive instrument by the mid-'50's. Finding modern music that was appropriate for the horn is what led him to Thelonious. As he told Mel Martin in this 1991 interview, "You must have the music to justify an instrument's extensive use. The problem I had on this instrument was that I not only had to learn how to play it, I had to learn what to play on it because there was nothing written for it. I couldn't play Charlie Parker tunes because they were too low…
"When I found the music of Monk I finally found music that fit that horn. Every one of his tunes fit it perfectly, so I started really studying his music but I also studied the songs of Webern because that also fit my horn. If someone wants to play soprano saxophone all their life, they must find someone else's music or eventually their own that will make it worthwhile for them, the public, and everybody."
July 23 is Steve Lacy's 78th birthday anniversary. He was born in New York City in 1934, and early on played traditional jazz and swing on both soprano and clarinet. Sidney Bechet was a model, and by the early 50's he was appearing at the Stuyvesant Casino and elsewhere with New Orleans legends Henry "Red" Allen and Pops Foster, Basie-ites Buck Clayton and Dicky Wells, and young piano lions Dave McKenna and Dick Wellstood, who were then striding into view. By 1955, he'd also begun playing with Cecil Taylor, a move that may have struck some as a dramatic stylistic leap, including the iconoclastic pianist himself. Taylor's first question to Lacy was, "How come a young fellow like you is playing Dixieland?" Lacy, however, did not recognize a discontinuity between the traditional and Taylor's music. He told Max Harrison in 1966, "Taylor seemed to be right in the tradition. As for harmony, he showed me that harmony is color, and I understood his color right away."
Lacy appeared on Taylor's first album in 1956, and was with the pianist at Newport the following year where Verve recorded their vigorous set that included "Nona's Blues" ("One of the more traditional forms," Taylor acerbically announced) and Billy Strayhorn's "Johnny Come Lately." Taylor also took him to see Monk, and through his music Lacy began to find an identity for himself. He told Mel Martin, "[Monk was] the best model I could find to help me get to my own stuff. I played that as long as I could before I started to uncover my own sound."
Once Reflections was released, Lacy delivered a personal copy to his main man, and Monk apparently dug it. He hired the saxophonist for four months in 1960, and Lacy was with the big band that Monk appeared with at Lincoln Center in 1964.
Lacy elaborated on Monk's importance not only to himself but to the emerging generation of free jazz players in his interview with Martin: "[Monk] provided appropriate structures to contain the type of improvisational material that we had discovered. What Monk had was the appropriate containers. He wrote the lines that made the guys sound good and that they liked to play. They developed a language and improvisation came naturally out of that material and it was a coherent whole…I was spoiled by Monk's music because it was so good, so complete. You could play them over and over again, even just the heads. You could play them badly and they sounded good!"
Lacy was one of the most prolific recording artists of his generation, with well over 100 releases as a leader, and several dozen more as a sideman. With Mal Waldron, he made at least a dozen sessions over the course of forty-plus years, and they all still sound essential. Of his Monk-related sessions, one of the most renowned is School Days, which was culled from a 1963 performance recorded by Jimmy Giuffre, who'd formerly led a group with Lacy, at the Phase Two Coffeehouse in New York. It's the first recorded collaboration between Lacy and trombonist Roswell Rudd, and whatever it lacks in audio fidelity it more than makes up for in musical vitality. Lacy and Rudd found common cause in the music of Monk and later Herbie Nichols, and School Days finds them in the outstanding company of bassist Henry Grimes and drummer Dennis Charles, who'd been with Lacy in Cecil Taylor's Quartet in the '50's. In the liner notes for School Days, Peter Kostakis wryly notes that the music may sound more like play than work, and there lies the secret to what makes the unfailingly melodic Lacy and the amazingly expressive Rudd, not to mention Monk, so enduringly enjoyable.
Rudd has been an essential custodian of Nichols' musical legacy since he played with the pianist-composer in the '60's. In 1982, he and Lacy recorded Regeneration, which was equally divided between tunes by Nichols and Monk; two years later Lacy recorded an all-Nichols release, Change of Season. Here are Lacy and Rudd at The Iridium in 2004, only months before Lacy's death on June 4 of that year, co-leading the group they called Monksiland and playing the Nichols original "Terpsichore."
Steve Lacy & Monk
I was fortunate enough to see Lacy with Monk in the Summer of 1960 at The Jazz Gallery on St. Mark's Place in NYC. An unforgettable evening given the fact that they were on a doulbe bill with the Ornette Coleman Quartet, Bobby Bradford, trumpet; David Izenson, bass; and Charles Moffett, drums.
I had always been a Monk fan but Lacy also won me over that night.

Christel M. Gambino
GRANVILLE, N.Y. It is with heartfelt sadness that we notify you of the passing of Christel M. Gambino, age 78, on December 21, 2012.
Christel was born on August 7, 1932, in Leverkusen, Germany. She was the daughter of the late Gertrude Kuepper Schrod.
Christel grew up in Germany and moved to the States in the 1960s, living in New York City for several years. Around 1988, she moved to Vermont, where she fell in love with the beautiful scenery and peaceful atmosphere. She enjoyed traveling the country roads, and seeing her boyfriend, Merck forest.
Christel worked until her retirement in the Activity department at The Orchard Nursing and Rehabilitation Centre in Granville. She loved spending time with the residents, decorating for the holidays, and being around her co-workers, many of whom became her family.
Christel was an amazing person, caring, devoted to helping others, and always elegantly dressed. Left to cherish her memories are the many friends that she made throughout her journey in life, the residents and staff at The Orchard, and her adopted family.
At Christels request there will be no services. A memorial gathering will be held at the Orchard Nursing and Rehabilitation Centre, in Christels honor at a later date.
We would like to thank Dr. Eisemann and the staff at Rutland Regional Cancer Center, as well as the staff at The Orchards, for allowing Christel to fight her battle with cancer, with courage and dignity.
The Robert M. King Funeral Home, 23 Church St., Granville, was entrusted with handling Christels final arrangements.MORE IN ObituariesObituaries to be published Saturday, Dec. 21 Full StoryObituaries to be published Saturday, Dec. 21 Full StoryObituaries to be published Saturday, Dec. 21 Full Story -

J.J. Yes.
Always wear a helmut
Jack Johnson was Jack Johnson, but Bjork was not Bjork.
Furthermore, MIA sucked after Paper Planes. She thought the shotgun sound would make a good bass drum. I forget if she headlined, but I had been looking forward to the performance.

what is Bjork doing on there you idiot
Why no Muse option here?
whoever voted portishead for worst headliner deserves a slap
Bottle Rock, Napa Valley, May 9-12
Bjork, Craneway Pavillion. May 22nd
Philip Glass Koyaanisqatsi, Davies Symphony Hall May 26th
That Bjork and Portishead are options when The Killers aren't makes me want to shoot you. Or urge you to try out for a Darwin Award. Whichever would end you quickest.

I cannot believe Jack Johnson gets picked over Kings of Leon.... at least Jack Johnson used to have damn good tunes that took over the whole planet for a good while.
kings of leon were really big at one time too
Rage Against the Machine for bringing the most teenage angst to Coachella ever. They did a great set and as a band they are awesome, they just brought along every single douche in the world with them, people felt the need to stay up late and scream, resulting in helicopters and riot geared cops surrounding the campgrounds..
PREDICTING SAME WITH KANYE (78% probability) cuz bitches love Kanye. It's going to get extremely hyphy-crunk-ghetto (XHCG)
I can't believe that The Killers, Beastie Boys, and Nine Inch Nails didn't make this poll.
rhcp anyone?
Friday: the black keys - shm - pulp - refused - arctic monkeys - M83 - amon tobin - the rapture - madeon - sebastian - neon indian - breakbot - givers - wolf gang
Saturday: RADIOHEAD - bon iver - the shins - kaskade - miike snow - sub focus - SBTRKT - flylo - kasabian - tune-yards - grouplove - jaques lu cont
Sunday: Dre & Snoop - at the drive-in - justice - florence + the machine - la roux - the hives - dj shadow - nero - modeselektor - dada life - gotye - noisia - gaslamp killer - metronomy
Bjork was not great when she headlined last, so I think she deserves to be on the poll. RHCP as well. Oh yeah, and Rage SUCKED at Coachella their last time around (Killed it in '99, tho). It was all hype, but they did not deliver. Sorry.
Jack Johnson was by far the worst, even if it is chill surfer music to fall asleep to, it's not Coachella. There is a reason he's way out in front in this poll.
Jack Johnson doesn't belong at Coachella,

The photographer's goal "is to help people visualize that which most do not notice in their everyday lives and to touch upon those thoughts and emotions for which few have time for in their daily experiences .I encourage people to stop and reflect upon the world as it could be seen, should one choose to take the time and look."

2-point, 4-point, 6-point stringing machines-what does it mean?
A lot has been said about racquets, stringing, tension, etc., but very little has been expounded about the role of the badminton stringing machine. There is a certain mystic or even "magic", including ignorance, in this seldom explored area.
Exactly, what is a 2-point, 4-point, 6-point, or any multi-point machine? What do they do? How can they affect stringing tension and stringing patterns? Can different machines change the dynamics of the racquet, i.e. 2-point machines are okay for higher cross over main tension, but not so for 6-point machines? Maybe, by kick-starting this little known area of the so-called master's realm of his magical skills, we can learn a little first, and then more, as we start putting on our thinking cap.
2 point stringing machine is the basic stringing machine whereby the racket is held in place at the top most and the t section of the racket.
4 point s. m. has an additional metal pieces to support the racket at 2 o'clock & 10 o'clock face position of the racket.
6 point s.m. has an additional metal pieces to support the racket at 2 o'clock & 10 o'clock, 4 o'clock & 8 o'clock face position of the racket.
When a vertical section of the racket is strung on a 2 point s.m., the shape of the frame will become rounder due to the tension of the string pulling vertically. The shape then comes back to its original shape when the horizontal section is strung. Sometimes the horinzontal tension is varied to get the ideal shape of the racket.
Due to this constant stress to the frame the 4 point & 6 point s.m. is used whereby the shape of the frame stays put and to reduce the chances of the frame breaking during stringing.
Personally I feel the 4 point s.m. is good enough but some stringers like to string the horinzontal section from top down (2 piece string method) and there would be a need for frame support at the 8 & 4 o'clock points.
In general, the more points you have on your stringing machine, the better your frame will be held by the machine. That means less likely to move while being strung and less likely to warp while being strung. You generally do not want the frame to move at all when it is being strung (especially at high tensions) so the more points you have, the better it is held by the machine.
A minor issue to be aware of is that additional supports tend to get in the way during the stringing process. As a result, if the racquet is only being strung at low to medium tensions, or if speed is an important factor, 2-point machines might actually be more preferable than those with additional support.

2. It saves time to "avoid the block", but not allow u to "pre-string" before tensioning.
Overall, I doubt it will save any time.

Just because someone has a 4 or 6 point machine doesnt mean he'll do it that way behind the back room

It will give an inexperience stringer false confidence in stringing, thinking all is well. Any experienced stringer can do well with a 2 pointer.
For example (automobile related again )
90% of autos i've seen in the road ditches are 4wd trucks, suvs.(lol, no 6wd though)
very very rarely i see a 1 or 2wd car in the ditch.Last edited by cooler; 05-07-2004 at 04:53 PM.
that's actually an interesting point. PeteLSD pointed me to a new mounting method by one of the manufacturers. instead of a 4pt mounting at 3,6,9,12 o'clock position, this manufacturer have 4pt mounting at 1,5,7,11 o'clock. the advantage being the initial mounting is much easier. 5,7 o'clock supports move together to clamp down the racket, and as a result, only one adjustment is made. compared to the tradition system, where there need to be a screw down on 6/12 o'clock, and then the 3/9 o'clock clamp needs to be adjusted.
in theory, the supports can be anywhere as long as they are distributed evenly. the new 4pt system has the advantage in that it supports the 5/7 o'clock position, where the most stressed locations. normally a 6pt mount will fix that problem, but now we can achieve with a 4pt mount. less mounts to get in the way.
Example of a machine?
Hey Kwun, you about the new mounting system... Could you post a URL for an example of a stringing machine which uses the mounting system you've described? Thanks

This is what I tried to explain to some gnome fanboys. If gnome wasn't be such broken mess it would have a chance to compete with Ubuntu and Unity. There's KDE that's doing very well, but it probably doesn't have enough corporal backend to encourage blob makers to support Wayland. Gnome has to be stronger to compete and show Wayland is the way.
People here does not understand one big thing: conflict of interests and goals. If GNOME wants some design and Canonical wants different design then they simply cannot work on the same project. The same thing with Wayland - constant patching to make it usable in Ubuntu would be a huge waste of time. Porting changes(like reusing Android drivers) to newer versions would be pretty painful and sluggish. Just like overlay scrollbars, appmenu and various other things. If you need to change core functionality then your code won't be accepted by upstream. And you end up with ugly, patched code and partly implemented design. And that's what Unity is today. If they want robust, stable, efficient and beautiful desktop, they need to "reinvent the wheel". Just like Apple did, with the difference that they are doing it OpenSource.
Where in my comment that you have quoted, did i specifically talk about Gnome? (i did not). I was actually talking quite broadly, about FOSS projects, in general. ~ which means everything from the linux kernel to compilers, from toolkits to various applications. ie: not some argument specific to Gnome vs. Canonical (as you are doing right now). You blaming Gnome for how Canonical goes about their business is hilarious. the fact is Canonical has ALWAYS operated this way ~ this isn't some by-product of Gnome rejecting their patches - that is just beyond moronic, dude ... :\ regardless, i am not here to defend Gnome. (if that is what you were hoping for?)...
the only thing i will say about Gnome vs. Canonical - is that (generally speaking) Gnome's projects are much more essential than any code Canonical puts out. (Hell, Ubuntu/Unity is built on Gnome, for fcsk sake! ...and while i do use _some_ of the gnome stack, i'm not a Gnome-Shell user, nor a hardcore gnome fanboy.
anyway, you are delusional to think (and vocalize) such silly notions.
Hopefully Mir will become great success and all you will eat your words!
You don't get it, do you? Canonical's plan for Ubuntu is to achieve MacOS-like seamless integration. Stitching together components from right and left won't cut it. They need to to be at the steering wheel, at least for the components that interface with the user. That will allow them to build deeper emotional connection with their users and thous stronger brand. It has been proven that enstablished projects have their own agendas and will not bend to Ubuntu needs. Also forking and maintaining huge patch sets lead to dead end. Mir and Unity are necessary investments if Ubuntu is to become something more than just a Gnome distro.

and it doesnt work low mounting it. the turbo gets a bit close to the alternator and the intake is too close the the radiator pipe.
will probably have to remount the wastegate actuator as well, but thats easy.
i am thinking it will be a top mount and run it close to the brake resivoir. headers, and dump pipe will be HPC coated and then wrapped. then some sort of heat sheild made up.
i really dont want to have to get another turbo........ but it maybe easier.

you could simply elongate the distance between the head and where the turbo bolts on.

next time i'll turn up with with my overalls on and hands covered in oil.
Posted 29 October 2010 - 08:58 AM
what i was planing on doing to my exhaust manifold is:
heat treatments, to stress releive the manifold.
HPC to coat the manifold
then wrap the manifold.
should i wrap or not wrap?
