J.W Foster developed the first known running shoe with spikes back in 1890, enabling athletes to run faster than ever before. Over 60 years later, his grandsons, Joe and Jeff Foster, took over J.W. Foster and Sons in 1954 and gave it a new name: Reebok.
While Reebok quietly made shoes for 30 years, it wasnt until the booming fitness trend of the 80s happened that Reebok became a household name. Women all over the world flocked to pick up the Reebok Freestyle. When THE PUMP hit the markets in 1989, Reebok become one of the top shoe sellers.
In 2006, Reebok became part of the adidas Group, bringing together two of the worlds most respected and best-known companies in the sporting goods industry. In 2011, Reebok made the move and partnered with CrossFit, a core strength and conditioning program. Two years later, Yoga, Dance and Aerobics followed suit and Reebok has become the new fitness brand, with the goal to empower consumers to be fit for life.

A team of seniors in the Architecture program has won second place in the national AIAS/AARP Livable Communities Design Competition.
Alice Chiang, Tony Maiolatesi, Dan Reed and Sandra Schwartz collaboratively designed a mixed-use development that incorporates housing, retail and community amenities. Mark Ramirez was the team's faculty sponsor.
The team's proposal includes a 30-unit apartment building with 12,000 square feet of retail, a public gym and a green roof. The site is in downtown Silver Spring, two blocks from the Metro and adjacent to the proposed Purple Line.
The competition was judged in April at the AIAS office in Washington, DC. The Maryland team won $4,000 and an additional $550 contribution to the University of Maryland AIAS Chapter.
The Maryland team's prize-winning proposal will be displayed at the 2009 AIA Convention in San Francisco, the AIAS Grassroots Conference and the AARP headquarters in Washington, DC. It will also be published in Crit, the AIAS journal.
The competition brief asked students to look at how their proposed development would fit within the larger master plan of the neighborhood to help create a livable community. The proposal was required to incorporate universal design principles that would make the project accessible to an aging population.
The School of Architecture, Planning and Preservation at the University of Maryland is home to four academic disciplines: architecture, urban planning, historic preservation and real estate development. Committed to educating its students and community about the importance of sustainability and smart growth, the School practices an interdisciplinary approach to education, research, creative work, and community and professional service.

As money can it actually will look to -- in the company from Salt Lake City, Utah is Utah State represented crowding out next.
All right in the state of Utah I believe I'm allowed to pay my bills this under the government in gold so how does it -- cannot from top and pay -- parking ticket in a small piece of gold cannot.
Not not currently the way the system set up right now start actually started last year house bill 317 we passed.
That said in the state -- that gold set records issued by the federal government are considered legal tender.
And executive and capital gains tax because when you tax money you -- monetize it my mother nature taxes.
And made a voluntary -- not mandatory people can choose to accept or not accept it.
Currently the -- Utah's not set up to accept a gold silver coin after the payment of taxes.
But we did this year pass and kind of a companion bill.
Says that -- when you purchase something.
At some good job doesn't move this along to at some point in the future I could pay my taxes in -- -- did you -- with gold coins correct.
That that is intent that's correct when -- on -- correct when.
Well this past this past year we passed a bill that says now when you purchase something -- -- or recordings you have to pay your taxes in gold and silver coin so in other words a seller.
Would be required to accept it as a percent of the Goldenson record the sales tax as a -- percent of gold and silver coin.
Right now when the person the seller remit sit back to the state they will do using Federal Reserve notes.
-- where this is an incremental approach where the intent would be is that in the next session we will move forward with some additional legislation that -- you continue to push in that direction so I.
I could go into a dealership and -- -- -- And give the cod did gold coins front.
That's correct and I would pay the price according to the price of gold baton day give the man 101000 dollars worth of gold coins for a 101000 dollar cost.
That deal though would then have to pay the tax.
On that gold is and it.
Who pays the tax.
Well let me -- makes a guess what car example just an example if we were say with -- 35000 dollar car.
And we were to pay it with 1000 silver Eagles in other words yeah they're marketed at a dollar but the value to say 3535 dollars for an ounce of gold.
So they repay thirty -- thousand dollars for that vehicle.
The the buyer then would pay his tax to the seller.
As a percent of the -- -- they -- -- this is a 10% tax rate.
They would then pay 10% of this over to the seller in in tax okay net seller Dan.
Would convert attend to that reserve notes and pay the state and Federal Reserve notes as a dispute right now.
What we look forward to seeing this in practice come back and join -- when somebody pays -- taxes a -- come with so overall goal going -- how this thing actually plays out.
So welcome the show got to have you with I'm terribly so I'm flat at a time.
But we'll have you back -- -- explain this in more detail when the system gets in place Brad Elvis thanks for joining us appreciate it --

The fat transfer & fat grafting is also known as an autologous fat transfer (using your own fat). This method is used during buttock augmentation for improving the contour of the buttocks and is also called the Brazilian Butt-Lift. Buttock augmentation has been rapidly growing in popularity thanks to celebrities such as Kim Kardashian and Jennifer Lopez.
The safest and most successful way to achieve the shapely derriere flaunted by these stars is through fat transfer. The fat is liposuctioned from unwanted places on the body, cleansed and re-injected into the buttocks.
Not only can you achieve attractive buttocks, you can beautifully contour your torso.
How Does The Fat Transfer & Fat Grafting Process Work?
Autologous fat transfer is basically a surgical technique that takes fat away from an area of your body and relocates it into the buttocks to improve the shape. Fat may be removed from your torso or from other areas such as the thighs if required. Fat can also be injected back into any region of your body including the face and unsightly scars and defects from surgery or injuries.
Through using the fat transfer we are able to carefully mould and shape the newly injected fat in your buttocks and create the perfectly contoured and smooth silhouette you desire.
Liposuction can be done in different ways; my preferred way is through small straw-like cannulas that extract the fat safely. This is a very gentle, precise and fast healing form of liposuction with exceptional results.
Why Is The Fat Transfer & Fat Grafting Process Better Than Implants?
Some cosmetic surgeons use implants for buttock augmentation but there are disadvantages. It is possible to have an allergic reaction and shaping and molding is not possible to do. I only use fat transfer as your body readily accepts its own fat.
The method I use will always guarantee a much fuller, smoother and naturally shaped buttock. Also, buttock enhancements using your own fat transfer will retain its shape and smoothness for much longer than implants.
If you are considering this procedure, I am certain you will fall in love with your newly enhanced buttocks and beautifully curvaceous silhouette.
If you would like to learn more about the fat transfer & fat grafting process please don't hesitate to schedule a free consultation with Dr. Carlson's patient coordinator at (941)315-6353.

Carbon Capture and Storage
Global warming is one of the biggest issues of our time and it is largely the consequence of growing concentrations of greenhouse gases, particularly CO2, in the atmosphere.
In 2005 there has been significant media coverage of carbon capture and storage starting with the G8 meeting in July, the release of the IPCC Special Report on Carbon Dioxide Capture and Storage in September and the UN Climate Change Conference - COP11 in December. Why this sudden interest in carbon capture and storage and what triggered it all?
Carbon capture and storage was brought to the global forefront when the US administration inaugurated the Carbon Sequestration Leadership Forum in June 2003. The CSLF set out with three realities in mind:
- fossil fuel combustion will remain the mainstay of world energy supply for decades to come
- Any sustainable solution needs to take account of the fact that the countries of the developing world cannot be expected to forego the use of their abundant fossil fuel reserves
- Carbon capture and storage is a demonstrated set of technologies
The mission of CSLF, which now has over 20 member countries, is therefore to foster international cooperation to develop CCS as a practical solution to the problem of man made CO2 and to this end the Forum has already endorsed a number of CCS projects worldwide.
Further information on the CSLF Stakeholder Processes is now available.
What is carbon capture and storage?
Carbon capture and storage is the separation, capture, transport and storage of CO2 resulting from the production, processing and burning of oil, gas and coal from power plants.
There are three main types of CCS:
- Natural carbon sinks are an integral feature of the natural carbon balance of the bio-sphere and can be augmented by human actions such as aforestation projects and the growing of energy crops.
- Enhanced product recovery includes oil recovery technology which is well established, gas recovery and coal bed methane recovery.
- Standalone waste storage includes the separation of CO2 in the LNG production process, a waste stream whose safe geological storage has now been demonstrated by the Sleipner project. It also includes the capture and storage of CO2 from power stations. Power stations represent the biggest challenge, they are a major source of human-made CO2. The capture, transport and storage technologies exist but the economic issues are yet to be resolved.
Statoil's Sleipner Project
Statoil's Sleipner Project in the North Sea captures CO2 separated from the project's natural gas production stream and injects it back into the permeable rock beneath the seabed. Sleipner avoids the release of over 1 million tonnes of CO2 per year into the atmosphere.

Making CCS accessible and acceptable
Carbon capture and storage should not be considered as the only solution to mitigating climate change, it is one option in the portfolio of mitigation measures that are available today to help stabilize and reduce the atmospheric green house gases. While carbon capture and storage makes use of established technologies there are issues associated with economics and accessibility, safety and acceptability.
Economics and Accessibility
Currently the aggregate cost of CCS for power generation is over US$100 per tonne, compare this to US$20 per tonne which is roughly the value on the emerging emissions trading market. If CCS is to be a viable solution then this $80 gap must close significantly. CCS must be affordable and transferable, particularly to developing countries, whose energy requirements are growing so rapidly. This topic is the subject of much ongoing work, see for example the work of VGB in Germany.
Safety and Acceptability
Gaining public acceptance will impact the global adoption rate of carbon capture and storage. The public will most likely be concerned about the safety of carbon capture and storage and the environmental impacts CCS will have on the oceans. Governments will be focused on drafting climate change regulations, creating legal frameworks and providing incentives for carbon capture and storage R&D - all of which are necessary if carbon capture and storage is to be successfully implemented.
Beyond Kyoto - what happens after 2012?
It has been eight years since the Kyoto Protocol was first opened for signatures and based on the progress to date it seems highly unlikely that the industrialized countries will achieve their targets of 2012. So what happens after 2012? Some scenarios project an increase in CO2 emissions caused by greater consumption in fossil fuels, particularly coal. If this is indeed the case we should be making a concerted effort to provide the means for accelerating the broad adoption of carbon capture and storage, now.
A presentation from the Energy Working Group meeting in Jakarta May 2006 on CCS salient issues is available.
An executive summary of the 1st Regional Symposium on Post Carbon Management, held in Dammam, Saudi Arabia in May 2006, is available. Visit the following website for further information.

Tech Data's sales and net income were below analysts' expectations for the third fiscal quarter, due to macroeconomic weakness and the implementation of some SAP modules that led to lost market share in the U.S., according to the company.
The Clearwater, Fla.-based distributor reported earnings of $45.9 million, or $1.21 per diluted share, on $6.04 billion in sales for the quarter ended Oct. 31, compared with earnings of $53.5 million, or $1.26 per diluted share, on $6.59 billion in sales for the year-ago period.
Analysts had expected earnings of $1.33 per share on $6.20 billion in sales.
[Related: 10 Tech Turkeys For 2012]
"During our third quarter we continued to face weak macroeconomic environments and slowing demand, as well as challenges in our U.S. operations following the implementation of certain SAP modules in the second quarter. Our worldwide operating performance, which fell short of our plan and prior year, reflects the ongoing impact of these challenges," said Tech Data CEO Bob Dutkowsky in a statement.
Tech Data reported $2.37 billion in sales in the Americas, down 15 percent from the prior-year third quarter. Part of that decline, about $101 million, is reflected in a change in the presentation of vendor warranty services and certain fulfillment contracts, according to the company. In addition, the year-ago results include about $52 million in sales from operations in Brazil and Columbia, countries in which Tech Data stopped doing business at the end of its last fiscal year. Excluding the impact of those factors, Americas revenue fell about 10 percent, according to the company.
European sales were $3.67 billion, down 4 percent from the prior-year quarter.
For the current quarter, Tech Data expects low-single-digit sales growth compared to the fourth quarter last year and a low-double-digit sales decline in the Americas due to the SAP implementation and the exit of the Brazil and Columbia operations.
Analysts are expecting earnings of $1.86 per share on $6.84 billion in revenue for the current quarter.
Tech Data shares closed at $45.46 Monday, up 4 percent from the previous Friday's close.

Red's on the River
Online Reservations
Food was terrific in a beautiful setting. Although the service level seemed unattentive at times throughout the evening, we enjoyed our experience.
The food is amazing and service is superb. Great menu and I like that they try to use locally raised ingredients. The out door dining in the summer is very nice and service is excellent even on the terrace. It is my favorite restaurant and I have recommended to many friends and family.
I took a dear friend to lunch for her birthday. We had not seen each other for a long time and needed to catch up. I had made reservations. Unfortunately, not long after we arrived, a table of about a dozen ladies were seated right next to us. They created a lot of noisy conversation and we were not able to have the quiet lunch that I had envisioned. Food was very good although I was a little disappointed with the beet salad. Our waitress was superb!
Very good menu choices were available and the presentation was wonderful!
I found Reds on the River staff very helpful when making a reservation for our large group. Thank you, Brittany. We had a wonderful time. Many of us said that we would love to come back.
We had a party of 8 people. The food and drinks were great. We were able to carry on a conversation at the table that everyone could hear. Our evening was just really enjoyable. Our entire experience left us feeling really satisfied, from our online reservation to dessert.
We enjoyed the outside dining. Service was very good and relaxing. We did not feel rushed. Salmon and steak was prepared excellent, as was all food. Slightly more expensive than other places but the fresh food and preparation was worth it. We will return. We also saw the more casual side of this place and will comfortable stopping in for a quick burger and fries.
We dined here for out 1st wedding anniversary.Food and service were both excellent. They made us feel special and put Happy 1st Anniversary on our dessert plate, a very nice touch. Prices are high, but a very lovely place.
Reds is on a river, although you don't see much of the river. There is outside seating wit sounds from the river and people walking by. The wine list is very good, you can order by the glass or bottle. The menu has a little of everything, although they are noted for their steaks. I go about twice a month and I have never had a bad meal. The wines are in the $30 -$40 range and the entres are $20 - $30 range. I would recommend Reds.
From the gluten menu to the steaks and fish the food was super .. Outdoor dining was very enjoyable
A nice phone call from Reds after making the reservation to confirm details and if we wanted indoor or outdoor seating. As the weather was looking to be nice and their patio is covered we opted for outside. This was a family dinner for our parents' anniversary and our waitress, Britney, wished them happy anniversary as well. The food and service were superb as it has been each time we've been to Reds, presentation was good and the wait staff was close by, drink refills were prompt. We'll be back next year for the same occasion as well as other times as well.
Strong supporter of GR Restaurant week... will return because of the great food....
a casual dining experience that is both upscale and relaxed. Service is great, staff is friendly and accommodating and the food is wonderful. My wife and I celebrated our 5th anniversary at Reds, it was a good choice!
Red's was a great discovery. One of the nicer restaurants in West Michigan. We came from Muskegon to celebrate our 33rd anniversary. We will be back.
The food, beer and wine selection, ambiance and pleasant staff make this a routine dining goal when we are in the area.
My wife and I were very pleased with our experience at Reds on the River. The food was prepared to perfection and full of flavor. My wife is a sangreia drinker and she said that reds on the river had the best Sangreia she had ever tasted. The wait staff was very professional and friendly. We highly reccommend Reds on the river, and we will definately return ourselves.
From the fabulous food, great service and attention to detail; your stay will be memorable regardless of what the weather is doing....sun, rain or snow would make this a comfy location to sit back, relax and enjoy good food with good friends.
Ate on the deck and enjoyed the noise of the river moving next to us. Service was great.
Our wait staff was very knowledgeable about the menu and wines. There was no rushing to turn over the table and we had a great view of the river.
I can't say enough about this restaurant. I have been here twice for special occassions, and we plan to come back! The food and service were outstanding, especially the steak. I would highly recommend this place for special occasions.
Our finished dinner plates where not cleared in an acceptable time. In fact they sat in front of us until we finished our drinks, received the check, paid for dinner and where ready to leave. I noticed all the other waiters removed dished from their respected tables, promptly.
Grand Rapids has several wonderful restaurants and we have a few favorites for special occasions. Friends recommended Red's on the River as their absolute favorite so we tried it. ABSOLUTELY the BEST in the area!!! Best steaks we have EVER had and the fish ordered by one person in our party was wonderful also. Service was attentive, but not intrusive. Food was brought promptly, but we never felt rushed to order the next course or finish enjoying our meal. All the accompaniments--appetizer, bread, sides, were top-notch also and we were very glad we saved room for dessert! Also a great location with no traffic or parking aggravations. Pricing was in line with the 5-star menu and service, but not exorbitant. We will return often!
Sitting by the river, we enjoyed many lovely moments at our lunch. We were delighted by the whipped cream "shooters" for our coffee, which was excellent and french pressed right in front of our eyes. The seasonal squash soup was indescribably delicious, the service was impeccable, especially for me since I am gluten intolerant. The only reason our lunch didn't rate that fifth star is that the lettuce in my caesar salad was dry, limp and tough. It stood out of an otherwise wonderful experience like a sore thumb, and I just didn't want to ruin my lunch by sending it back. It had to be leftovers from the day before, or the bottom of a bag. Will definitely come back for another great meal. Brought our kids a gift certificate!
Been going for our anniversary for years. Great place, always good
Reds on the River is a great place for special occasion or just for a cozy dinner out on the deck. Food is good, service is great. Has a nice outside bar on the deck also.
The food was pretty darn good. It also came fairly quick. The service was good. They seem to have a full staff. They didn't run low on staff to save money. There was always somebody doing something. Atmosphere was real nice. Nice view of the river. The prices were higher but worth the overall experience.
Took advantage of GR Restaurant Week $25 three course meal deal. The first course soup and salad and bread were fresh and tasty, and the third course desserts were exceptional. The flavors were good on the second/main course but my wife and I both thought the meals came out of the microwave as they seemed dry and overcooked. If I was paying a $120 meal for two with that main course, I don't think I would be going back anytime soon. Because I know they can do better, we will go back again.
Our evening at Reds was wonderful. We would have liked to sit on the porch by the river, but the weather was too steamy the evening we went. The duck and the jambalaya that my husband and I had we're excellent as was the suggested wine.
Arrived early and sat at the bar....very friendly and accommodating. Great assortment of local micro-brews and a fabulous mojito. Stuff their own olives, which are terrific. The calamari appetizer was crispy and full of flavor. Marinara dipping sauce was good, but the calamari was so good it stood on its' own. One of us was a local and got her "usual", Torch Lake Chicken, topped with a fluff of crispy-thin onion rings, " heavenly". Known for their steaks, which are seasoned and cooked at 1500 degrees, 2 of us ordered the recommended delmonico. Mine charred/rare, which looked just like my companions'. Incredible seasoning, but the steak was gristly and slightly too tough. My companion agreed. Would recommend. Great view and ambiance.
We had a great table outside with a view of the river. The service and food were outstanding. We have dined here before and it is always a great experience. We will keep coming back and would definitely recommend to others.
This was my first time dining at Red's on the River, and it did not disappoint. Everything is made fresh on site, and the server we had was extremely friendly and able to answer all of our questions. Service was non-intrusive, but attentive, allowing for a perfect first date.
Our service was slow. I noticed that our server appeared to have tables both inside and on the patio. This seems to be a poor management decision as I think it makes it difficult for the server to keep an eye on her/his tables and do her/his job properly.
We've been very happy with our experience at Red's the two times we've been there. Both times for special occasions and they celebrated with us from the hostess to the server to the free piece of dessert at the end. Those little things go a long way to making us comeback. Thanks to OpenTable for allowing me to give the place a heads up about our celebrations.
Food and service are always good. Torch Lake Chicken is always a favorite. My Long Island Duck was outstanding and specially prepared for my gluten free diet.
We had lunch here on the same day the town was having a fall festival. The setting was very scenic and what a nice place to go for a lunch on an autumn day. The service was top notch, and the food was great!
One of my most favorite Resturants. Always a great place for a date night or special event with family or quiet evening with friends. They offer seasonal specialties that will intrique and satisfy most any palate and a regular menu that is consistantly good. I always look forward to the experience.
Everytime that we go to reds the service and food are spot on. Our service was very knowledgeable and friendly. Both of our steaks were cooked perfectly. I couldn't have asked for a more enjoyable evening out!
The staff and our server were excellent. The main room, which is rather large, maintains a comforatble atmosphere in which you can relax and enjoy a wonderful meal. My wife truly enjoyed the "Flat Iron Steak" which was done exactly to her taste. She is on a low carb diet and passed on the potatoes and had the small ceasar instead. I must say that I'm not a regular red meat eater, but she gave me a taste and it was truly delicious. I, on the other hand, had the Mahi Mahi over a bed of "black" rice with broccoli and it was to die for. Everything was just done so well that we'll be returning whenever we are in the Grand rapids area.
The service & food was phenomenal!! This was our first time and I will certainly go back.
Thank you for taking such good care of my parents. I was in the restaurant business for 20 years and received many special occasion requests and it was very rewarding to get them right. However, it's amazing to be on the receiving end when I get to hear that my Father was blown away by your hospitality on his 77th birthday. Thank you and please know what you do makes a difference. Sincerely, Jeff Larsen
My husband and I celebrated our 33rd anniversary there. It was our 1st time dining at Red's. We loved it. The food was fabulous and the staff was very efficient and friendly. Our dessert even came with a "Happy 33rd Anniversary" message. Was a very sweet ending to a great night.
Torch Lake chicken entre was excellent. The goat cheese and sauce was very plentiful as a first course. 25th Anniversary dinner for us. Drinks are a little pricey but this is a fine dining location. We use this for special occasions. If they shaved about 20% off the price, we'd visit much more often, but I understand their goal. Our server was superb.
The food, atmosphere, and service were all exceptional... Would definitely recommend. !!!
Food is consistently very good. Service staff is very knowledgable, well trained and very accommodating. Ambiance is top shelf. Outdoor dining environment (weather permitting) is comfortable and abundant with the river close by. This has always been one of our favorite restaurants in the area.
Red's could not have been more perfect for celebrating a 170 years of life---our father's 87 birthday and step-mom's 83rd! The atmosphere was very nice and they were able to accomodate our request for a private/semi-private table location. The wait staff could not have been more accomodating, the food was excellent and the chef took time to come out to visit with us for a few minutes! The guests of honor are from the GR area, but the rest of us are from the Chicago area and we were all very impressed with this special find in Rockford, MI.----we wil definate be back in the summer when we can enjoy eating on the patio!
I've been at this restaurant twice and both times, my experiences were awesome! I like the fact that the manager is highly involved with the satisfaction of their customers. It has an outstanding view, it's huge, love the fireplace, it's clean, has friendly crews and overall, a very pleasant place to be! :)
We had another great evening at Red's on the River. A relaxing group outing with exceptional service and outstanding food. Our first choice when we have friends/relatives visit.
First time here. Our server was excellent and very knowledgable. I asked her to pair a wine for my dinner selection and she was spot on. The Chef's island chowder was very good but I felt it was a little bland, the squash bisque my wife had was excellent and perfectly seasoned. The main courses were both very good and the deserts, especially the blueberry cobbler were the perfect ending. I would dine here again without hesitation.
Overall, we were very pleased. It was not busy on Monday night and our party of four celebrated a birthday with salmon, swordfish, filet and Delmonico. Unfortunately, both the salmon and Delmonico were undercooked and the steak was sent back. Otherwise, the service was excellent, attentive but not fussy.
The staff at Red's really made our anniversary special. The food was outstanding and the service was great. I would recommend thisrestaurant to all my friends.

Interesting. Which rotor is which in your results table, I find it difficult to tell.
Were all the tests done with the same battery, and in the same airframe? I did not use the HK 4800kv motor in my tests. I used the 4600kv version from RC Castle and I used a Neutron 4900kv. My tests are on Youtube so you can see consistantly higher thrust with lower amps compared to Haoye 6-blade copy of JPower. Just to add, I compared the rotors directly, not the stock motor + rotor (JPower) vs the Lander motor + rotor (cut down). I have not tried the cut down Lander rotor on the stock JPower motor. i.e. eliminate all the other variables. stick a Jpower 5-blade on that HK Lander motor and see what you get. |

Yes, the Saber will barely stay aloft, now. I have tried several different batteries, ESC's, and still just will not stay in the air. When I first put the alloy 50MM hobby king fan unit in (3s version) it worked fine. No super powerhouse, but adequate for flight. Now, it is pitiful. I have the exact same set-up in my MiG-15, and it flies beautifully, using the same batteries. So... while I didn't have any smoke leave the motor, it just has no power, and will not fly. So, I ask, is there a drop -in motor that will give this a boost on 3s? I would prefer to no have to go 4s, just to get it flying, and because the fan, and housing are not in any way damaged, I would love to reuse them. Any thoughts on the 50MM 10 bade models mentioned a page ago? If I have to get a whole new unit, I really would like it to fly well.....------Metalguy

It is approved according to a the "Pegasus R4 / R6 First Release Compatibility List, Version 1.5" I found on Promises support site. They list two 3TB drives (both the same model number above). One is a regular Barracuda Firmware CC4H, the other is a Barracuda (Blackpoint) Firmware CC43.

I have an R6 with 1TB drives revision A2, can I use a 2TB drive as a spare? I thought all drives had to be the same.

Most of the peasant had a few meager possessions, including benches, tools, pots and wooden bowls, cups and spoons. Many households also had a simple wooden chest to keep valuables in. Beds were not a common thing, and most slept on a sort of straw mattress on the floor. They slept in their work clothes, covered by an animal skin usually. Some houses had linen towels, woolen blankets, and livestock were also a common possession for them to own, normally chickens, cows, or a pig. If the wife in the family was not helping with the craftsmanship or the farming, she usually occupied her time with raising the children and having a small garden, called a croft. This was usually located next to the house. Some of the farmers lived in town and made the daily commute to their farms, but others lived outside of the protection of the walls on the farms. Generally, farmers did not merely subsist on the crop they grew, and could also produce a cash crop which would be sold. The money from this was used to pay their taxes and buy the necessary supplies for living.
Religion was an important part of the life for the peasants, and it was taken very seriously. In fact, before the strong, tyrannical government emerged in the tenth to thirteenth with the king as its ruling figure, the church could also be considered a contending force with the king, sometimes overthrowing the king and placing a puppet of the church in command. The church had strict laws which were carefully followed, and a severe punishment was usually guaranteed if they were broken. The hierarchy of the church was most often mixed with the feudal system of the town. The bishops had great power, were usually involved in politics, and were even occasionally granted fiefs by the king or his ministers. And so, religion became a ever-present facet in the lives of the medieval world. Most villagers practiced religion by observing holidays and the Sabbath when necessary. They practiced many religious rites, such as baptisms, burial Masses, and communion, when they could afford to, that is.
Famines were frequent and plagues depleted the livestock. Crops
were destroyed
by frosts, floods, and droughts. Fields and harvests were burned when the lords had
bursts of warfare across the countryside.
Thus, the peasants life was a hard one. However, peasants of the middle ages
many holidays, both
and non-religious, which meant that the peasant worked for about 260 days
year. The life of the peasant was extremely difficult, but enjoying holidays kept

The dog days of summer are definitely here: The temperature continues to climb; we're retreating from the patios back inside for the air conditioning; and the calendar continues to split at the seams. If there's one upside to it all, at least moving indoors puts us back in front of some of our favorite local stages.
It's a good time for it, too. As local shows and CD releases continue to scroll up on our calendar, we can re-acclimate while taking in some of the coolest new tunes in town.
With that in mind, there might be no better timing or title for Cody Clinton's new solo EP, Dog Days Comin', to arrive. Clinton officially introduces the new songs to Tulsa Friday night, July 9, with a CD release party at The Marquee.
This is no extension of The Bishops or even his association with Pilgrim, however: It's Clinton exploring his solo side -- with a twist.
Anyone who's familiar with Cody Clinton and the Bishops knows him as a straight-up rocker with a southern tinge and a commercial appeal. Add a touch of Neil Young here, a pinch of Beatles or dash of Stones there, and well ... you get the idea.
Even when playing the role of guitarist in side projects Pilgrim or Miniver Cheevy, Clinton mines a classic rock vibe -- usually with a healthy dose of British Invasion to keep things sparkling and upbeat.
When it came time to do a solo project, however, Clinton said, "I wanted to make something a little less mainstream and a little more weird."
Lyrically, Clinton spreads his wings and steps out into cinematic, film-noir territory with songs such as "Black Clad Girl" and "Lipstick and a Gun," but that's by design. When discussing his inspiration and influences, Clinton is just as likely to name directors such as Quentin Tarantino or the Coen Brothers.
The result is something Clinton likens to "Spaghetti Western" music, drawing inspiration not only from Tarantino's imagery but definitely the feel and soundtracks of his movies.
Although not quite the guitar line that's indelibly linked to Pulp Fiction on everyone's minds, using reference points such as Nancy Sinatra and Dick Dale, certainly pointed him in the right direction. "Black Clad Girl" even steps into Johnny Cash territory before the EP takes a psychedelic turn with "Lipstick and a Gun" and gradually morphs into its own creature as Clinton's Beatles influence seeps out in the final two tracks, "The Call" and "Who Are You Lying To?"
When Clinton said, "I wanted to make something more moody and less bubble-gum, a bit darker ..." he certainly achieved his goal. The ironic twist of the disc isn't really in the change of sound, however. It's more in how the recordings changed Clinton's direction.
By bringing in Desirae Roses to sing on a pair of songs, the project became more of a duo project than a solo outing. As a result of singing together on the disc, the pair started performing acoustic shows together and has created a distinct sound and musical entity as "Desi and Cody."
In fact, the collaboration worked out so well that Clinton is planning a second EP that will put the spotlight more on Desirae. The two will tie together as an intermingled pair as the songwriting process continues in the same vein and the artwork has already been planned out. The cover for Dog Days Comin' is the first part of a comic strip. When matched up with the second disc, the strip will be completed, as will the song cycle.
The real question on compatibility between the two discs arises in the fact that producer Jordan Elder has since moved to Brooklyn, but Clinton isn't worried. With Nathan Price engineering at Black Watch studios, Clinton will collaborate with Eric Arndt to produce the next disc and make the pair a cohesive whole.
Even without an extension, Dog Days is an engaging listen that examines the manifestation of personal demons, a Black Widow spinning her web and staring down death, depression and alienation. Somehow, though, Clinton manages to tell his tale with a light at the end of the tunnel and enough redemptive value to want to experience it all again.
The release party for Dog Days Comin' is Friday night, July 9, at The Marquee. Vandevander and Wink Burcham open the show as Vandevander pulls double duty and serves as Desi and Cody's backing band for the evening. Cover is $8 in advance or $10 at the door and will include a copy of the EP.
Trust me: It's dark, yet engaging -- and after a few listens you'll already be wondering how it will all play out on the next EP, so don't hesitate to find your own copy of the disc.
In Memory
Although there are a number of shows worth your time this weekend, I'd be remiss to not make specific mention of the show that has been planned to pay honor to the memory of Missy Eubanks, who was killed on Friday, May 7. While details are sketchy, it appeared to be a drunk driving/hit-and-run accident at 6th and Peoria that saw Eubanks die from her injuries.
Close friends have arranged for a huge party at Flytrap Friday, July 9 to honor her memory. The evening begins at 7pm and concludes at 2am with live music by Orphium, Sam & the Stylees and Dirtfoot. DJ Kylie, Shannon Chambers, DJ Moody and DJ P will be splitting up the rest of the evening to keep the audience entertained and dancing throughout the night.
All of the bands and DJs have donated their time and service, as has Flytrap, so there's no overhead for organizers. The evening has been arranged as a benefit and fundraiser with a suggested donation of $5 for entry, a silent auction of artwork and a raffle planned, with all proceeds going to educational and support funds for Missy's 10-year-old son, Jackson.
Photographer Benjy Russel, who is best known as photographer for Shiny Toy Guns, as well as a number of other local artists will have their work posted as part of the silent auction and a number of door prizes have also been donated, so anyone who attends has a good chance of walking away with something while helping a good cause and paying tribute to a friend.
Organized by Josh Lynch, Christopher Schreiner, Gregory Topor and Brannon Crain, the goal, as close friend Havala Keogh-Wilburn explains it is "to pay tribute to Missy and how she touched everyone's life that she came in contact with."
Even if you didn't know Missy, this is a good opportunity to support your fellow music lovers and help provide for her son -- and if you love to dance, you won't want to miss it.
Weekly Roundup
How can you possibly choose what to do when there are so many cool shows to choose from? One option is to bounce between shows and try to catch a little of each, although that isn't always easy -- or cheap. The other is to scan through the local listings, figure out what appeals to you the most, mark a back-up plan and head out. As always, we've got the highlights; although if you want a full listing, you can always hit our Live Music section to find even more shows on Page 42.
Thursday nights are best for hanging out and relaxing and one of the best places to do that is the patio at Hunt Club, where Steve Lidell will be strumming away on July 8. If you're looking for a dose of country with a splash of rock and roll (some people tend to call it Red Dirt), you may well want to join the party with No Justice at Woody's Corner Bar (formerly Dirty's) grand opening celebration. Things may have been relatively quiet as of late, but Woody's promises to bring some exciting band to the stage and help revive the corner of 2nd and Elgin.
On Friday night, July 9, Woody's welcomes Bo Phillips Band for more Texas Country and Red Dirt. Meanwhile, it's always a party at Arnie's when Alex and the Anders take over the microphone. Of course, you already know about the aforementioned "Tribute to Missy Eubanks" at Flytrap and Cody Clinton CD release party at the Marquee. Perhaps the biggest show of the night, however, is the return of Thrice with Kevin Devine, Bad Veins and The Dig opening the show.
Also on Friday is a private house concert with Shotgun Party, which will appeal to Americana, country and western swing fans. RSVP by calling Nathan Pickard at 734-0287. The show starts at 8pm with a suggested $15 donation.
On Saturday, July 10, Flytrap welcomes Joseph Israel and Josh Heinrichs (of Jah Roots) for a full night of reggae. Looking around town for something different, Wighead plays Soundpony, Woody's continues the celebration with Two Steps Back, and The Eclipse Brings Electric Attitude to town with The Doldrums opening the show. Of course, the rockers out there will want to party with Baron Von Swagger and Crazy Love at Shenanigan's and country fans will want to check out Mary Cogan's CD release party for Bury Me in the Red Clay at The Ivey at 9pm.
If you're ready to dance on Saturday night, however, you've got to get to Crystal Pistol. DJ Robbo's band, Recorder, returns form a six-month hiatus with new tunes and a high energy show that always entertains. It's a free show, so come see why Recorder is nominated in the Best Dance/Party Band and Best Live Stage Performance categories of this year's ABoT Music Awards. Electro-duo Bruner will open and DJ Kylie will spin a set afterwards.
On Sunday, July 11, Lyle Lovett and his Large Band returns for a show at the Tulsa PAC. For anyone who loves good storytelling and crack musicianship, this will be the show of the week.
Monday night's highlight is the Scream the Prayer Tour at the Marquee. This year's headliners are Maylene & the Sons of Disaster, For Today, Blessed By a Broken Heart, A Plea For Purging. Doors open at 6pm, so arrive early, because this tour consistently sells out when it comes to Tulsa.
Finally, the week wraps up with Against Me! at The Marquee with opener First Lady Assassins on Tuesday, July 13, followed by Delta Spirit (who created a real buzz at DFest last year) at Bob's on Wednesday night, July 14.

Thanks for the comments Steve, I understand what you're saying. Music is always a tough one as taste varies so much.
We started with folk guitar stuff, then ended up with, as Hannah says, easy listening jazz… It's actually by an outfit called Visioneers, who are part of a group called 4Hero. More hip hop than anything else. I wanted some punk.

The opening 8 bars to that song are sampled in a Jill Scott song called "Slowly Surely". A rather tongue-in-cheek reverence, whether intentional or not.

"I was the secretary of Anne's murderer." So began a strange letter written in 1988 to Melissa Mueller after the publication of her best-selling "Anne Frank: The Biography" (Owl Books, 1999). The secretary was Traudl Junge, who served as one of Hitler's personal assistants from 1942 until his suicide in 1945. In the final days of the war, she took down his last will and testament before he shot himself in his Berlin bunker. Fearing retaliation, she refused to tell her story for the next 53 years. But now, remorseful and suffering from terminal breast cancer, she seemed ready to talk.
Mueller immediately called her friend, internationally renown multimedia artist Andre Heller, the son of a Holocaust survivor. "I was interested in how someone had changed from Hitler's assistant to an anti-fascist," Mueller told The Journal from his hometown of Vienna. "Was it believable or not?"

About Me Parent Of Two Or More Children
Ordered one of these for my son, who had used and really enjoyed the version of this toy that I had as a kid while at his grandparents' house. That one is at least 30 years old and still works; the new one was junk out of the box. The seal between the air tank and the motor simply isn't tight enough to hold the amount of pressure necessary for the car to move under its own power. It starts leaking at 10-12 pumps, which is far short of what it needs. This is probably a result of the thin and flimsy frame material, which allows the car to flex too easily, and doesn't support the tank seal. It's disappointing to see such a classic, time-tested toy design ruined with such low quality, cheap manufacturing. Don't waste your money.
Does not work

My five year old received this for Christmas and was excited to put it together. Instructions for assembly were clear, though the screws were very difficult to tighten all the way. Once the buggy was put together, we pumped it up and nothing happened. Upon further inspection, the notched wheel that appears to make it go, not only doesn't move on it's own, but there's no way for it to manipulate the tires. Bottom line, poor design.

We put it together, but it did not work. We pump it up and it does not go anywhere.
Great fun but could be better

This kit went together very easily. Once everything was together it worked well and was a lot of fun for me and my 3.5 year old son. The black protective cage is actually very important for proper operation because otherwise the car flexes and this causes the seal between the tank and engine to leak air. The construction is very similar to the Tomy air jammer but the plastic is a little flimsier and while the engine looks similar externally the piston location is not the same (isn't inside the fake heatsink fin part). I like that the engine runs for a long time. I would have preferred to pay a little more for a more robust product.
