Stunning OnLive app streams PC games to your Android tablet or phone
It's taking me a while to get over just how cool the very concept of OnLive's new app really is.
OnLive is a gaming service that lets you stream PC games over the Internet. You pay a fee, either to buy a game on the service or as a monthly subscription for a big group of them, and then you can stream those games down to your computer or a dedicated set-top box on your TV. It's a great service if you happen to want to play Windows games but own a Mac, or have an older computer that's not as powerful as what's needed to play some of the top-of-the-line games out there. OnLive makes it so your hardware doesn't really matter, because your computer isn't the one running the game.
And that's why OnLive for Android is so cool – the app lets you stream PC games to your tablet. I can't get over that. You're playing a big-time video game release on an Android device, and all you need is an Internet connection.
I previewed OnLive's app back at E3 2011, and was impressed by it there. Now that the app is finally live on the Android Market, I've had a chance to mess around with it quite a bit more. It's not nearly as good as streaming your games to your computer or TV, but playing PC games on your tablet is practical if you don't mind a bit of a drop in graphical quality.
OnLive currently features 25 games that have been optimized for tablets, giving them special touchscreen controls that give you the ability to play them without a standard controller or keyboard and mouse like you would need on the set-top box or computer. Downloading the app earns you a copy of one of those optimized games, LEGO Batman, and once you sign-in to (or sign-up for) the service, you can be into the game in mere minutes. It's really pretty amazing how quickly and easily OnLive works on an Android tab like the Samsung Galaxy Tab 10.1, which is what I tested it on. (The full list of compatible devices is available here.)
In terms of performance, OnLive ran pretty well throughout my time with it. Sometimes it looked surprisingly great; other times, the image would break up a little bit and look like a rough YouTube video. These moments didn't last long and never rendered the game unplayable, they just made it ugly. As long as you're playing on a decent Internet connection (I was using my home Wi-Fi, which isn't great), the game runs well even if the picture spends a few moments looking a bit muddled.
Controlling LEGO Batman was a little rougher, though. Even with the optimized touchscreen controls, this is definitely not the way the game was meant to be played, and it took some getting used to. Playing with touchscreen controls is good in a pinch, but OnLive is currently working on a wireless gamepad controller that will work with compatible tablets that should work much better than trying to control the game on the screen. It'll also make OnLive's full library available to tablet players – a little over 180 games.
Still, even with some visual issues and with the controls feeling weird, OnLive is pretty amazing. The app is free, as is your membership to the service – you only pay for what you play. And we're talking about playing full video games on a tablet here; that's just too cool to get over. Mind you, playing OnLive games on any mobile device is not the absolute ideal way to do it, but it opens up a lot more opportunities for gamers to take their titles on the go with them, or to play while someone else is watching TV, or to use in a host of other circumstances.
If you're already an OnLive player, there's no reason not to grab this app. If you're not, you might want to consider it if you're into PC games and like the idea of taking your gaming across multiple devices.

How to Find a Decent Girl
Sometimes our taste and judgement isn't the best. We want the girls that are bad for us. But with a little luck and some simple steps, you too can get a girl that is great for you. Keep reading for detailed instructions.
This article has been tagged as a stub.
That means it's off to a good start, but still has room to grow into a more helpful resource. Until the article reaches its full potential, it will be hidden from search results. Can you help it flourish? If you think the article offers complete and accurate instructions, feel free to remove this tag.
1Find a good heart. Watch girls who comfort their friends when they're sad. Find girls who are happy and unselfish. Find girls who value large sums of people, things, and everything in herself.
2Look for somebody who is reasonably intelligent. She knows an adequate amount about books and subjects, but mostly common sense.
3Never let a friend or acquaintance let you believe something negative about her. Find it out for yourself. It could be a flaw she's changing.
4Pay attention to her qualities.
- Modesty works. Any girl who wouldn't nag you about everything she does while she nags you thinking that you do absolutely nothing.
- Some hearts of girls may be fragile, but not all. You have to know the girl in order to impress her. Some would like you to get down on one knee and ask you to be her girlfriend with a shiny plastic ring where another would favor it to be quite random or private.
- Somebody open to new things would work.
- Any girl with much self-respect would be very decent. This meaning that she's a classic. Any girl who can respect herself is dear.
5Look at her past and her background. Find her culture, her likes, dislikes. Get to know her.
Community Q&A
Ask a Question
- If you really know you like her, give it some time. Ask her in a manner you know she would like. If she says no, don't ignore her after that, unless she's ignoring you.

The italics are thoughts, unless they are in the middle of dialogue. It starts a little abruptly, but please bare with me.
She collapsed, falling to the ground even as she desperately clutched the window sill. Not now. She thought silently, forcing her words to remain unspoken. Oh please, not now. I've barely started to live. But she knew it didn't matter. Her existence had a single purpose. To make her father stop denying what he knew to be true. He was beginning to accept. She was beginning to die. Her life of feeling, of freedom, had only started two weeks ago. She had only been living, breathing, eating, sleeping for two weeks. Talking to people other than her father had been such a luxury, such a wonderful thing. And being able to feel emotion? It was like coming out of a cave to the bright light you had always known about but never ventured to. But none of those things mattered now. A voice in her ear, "Are you alright? Are you alright?" she couldn't make herself recognize it. No. Never again. Alright is a state I can't possess anymore. She began to cough up the blood that was blocking her breathing, but her eyes must have been dead. She couldn't see anymore. Images flashed before her eyes, worried faces, they've only known me two weeks and they're worried. None of it meant anything to her. Life was losing meaning as she was losing life. All of it faded away, screaming at her but being eerily silent at the same time, and everything was numb and bland and she couldn't feel the color anymore.
She woke in a room of white. She knew it was the sickbay of the ship. She was surprised to find that it had a window, facing the planet she had said she was from. A half-truth. As the man who imagined her, who formed her in his subconscious to make him admit what he refused to see was her father, this planet that had given her solidity, which had given her life, was her mother. She pushed up and ignored the pain of her dying body to put a hand to the window. I suppose this is what's right. I don't belong. I was never meant to live. I was supposed to be as his brain dictated, I was never supposed to be free and alive and breathing and wanting and needing and
I don't want to die! I DON'T WANT TO DIE. But she was dying. She was not going to make it through another two hours, and even as she began to hear the beep-beep-beep of the monitors, as the room began to surface, she knew it was too late. Nothing would save her now.
The door opened, and so many people came through, worried for me she thought. They don't even know what I am. I don't even know. Their faces all radiated concern, as they came through one by one, obviously ordered to not all go in at once by the doctor. She felt the pain as more of a dull ache now, but it didn't matter, it didn't matter, because she wanted to spend her last moments with all these people who had been so nice to her. She could see in their eyes the truth she knew too well. Some gave her watery, weary smiles; some merely looked pale and sad. A few, those who had come to mean the most to her in those past two weeks, just cried.
She sensed her father coming before she saw him. The pain died down a bit, but so did her heart rate. So did her breathing. He came closer and she was dying more and their eyes met and they knew. Understanding passed between the two as he closed the door and they just stared at each other. He stood by her and took her hand and she felt herself so oddly alive even as she began to slip away more and her parents were the only things she saw. A planet to give her a body. A man to give her a soul. To give her a purpose. Once the purpose was fulfilled completely she would die. She knew there were no more questions, not anymore, about whether or not she could live on her own now that she had a living breathing body. No was her answer, given to her by the pain, the blood, the slow loss of the sanity she had been blessed with even though it was too short. Not enough time. Never enough time. Too many reservations. Too much constantly in the way, danger every day has to be ignored or there's no peace and peace of some sort is necessary for life and she was falling, falling-
"I guess this is goodbye, then?" Her father's voice broke through, gruff and a little emotional. More than she had expected. She was a nuisance, something that had, because it was designed to, annoyed him to no end about things he didn't want to admit to himself. She wondered if this meant that he loved her now. She decided he cared. He may not love her, but he cared. He was, after all, her creator. It was his job to care, she decided. He didn't look away from her the whole time. She knew what he saw. Her entire body had been composed specifically to make him most at ease and honest. She was supposed to be a part of him. So if he was honest with her, then he was being honest with himself. That would, hopefully, get him to admit his secret without having to pry it open and shove it in his face
that approach hadn't worked, anyway. So now, when he saw her, he saw a young girl, who resembled many of the female figures in his life. She possessed characteristics of many people he had admired and trusted. All a ploy by his own mind. But she wasn't a part of him as she had been before. They remained connected, but this was different from before. Everything is different now she thought.
"Yes. This is goodbye. You've finally come to accept that which you've been denying. It was my only purpose to make sure you did. Now that you have-"
"I'm going to miss you." Caught off guard again, she just stared and stared into his eyes until she found the words that fought for freedom on her tongue.
"I thought you didn't want me. I was too much of a nuisance." She couldn't help but think of all the dirty looks he'd given her before she was real, before she could be seen by others, before she could feel.
"At first, when you were just a figment of my imagination, that was true. But once you became real
I started to
I wanted you around. You've even got a personality. You've been around for months, and I'm so used to you I don't know what it's going to be like once you're gone."
"It was always going to be temporary."
"But it's different now. You aren't just disappearing. You're dying. You aren't just some fake girl my mind created, you're my daughter. Before, you talked about getting me to admit
it as your only goal, everything revolved around that and you were so different. An emotionless shell. You could fake emotion, but you couldn't feel it. But now
you're scared."
She gave him a bitter smile. "Of course I'm scared. I'm
human, I suppose," she said glancing at the planet that had created her. It wasn't earth, but that didn't seem to make a difference. She looked human, at any rate. "I feel now. I feel joy, and anger and pain." Her voice began to rise as her emotions began to overflow. "I feel love and hate and I have needs and wants and nothing is the same everything is brighter and sharper and distinct. It all has meaning that I never saw and I'm losing it all again." Her voice was full of the agony she felt, as her newly made heart ripped itself into shreds- literally and figuratively. Death was coming faster. She felt it start to wrap its cord around her, felt it tug at her soul- the newly minted soul that had yet to live- and she wished she'd never been born. Never woken up in the cold muddy ground of the planet that had birthed her, never walked or talked or breathed or thought. She wished it all away for oblivion. She didn't feel as though it was worth the pain.
"I'm sorry." Her father was looking at her as though he was in agony too and he might have been. She was a part of him. She was dying. Maybe he felt it too.
"It isn't your fault. It's just circumstance. If you weren't semi-telepathic, if you hadn't inadvertently created me, if you hadn't moved toward this planet, if it wasn't a planet that appears to enhance telepathy, if, if, if. Just a series of strange circumstances that led to me having life." She couldn't stop the sigh.
"This is my end father. My purpose is served. It's my time to die. With each passing second you get closer to complete acceptance. I can feel it. I'm slipping away." She was. The only thing that she could focus on were his eyes, everything else was blurry. She heard nothing but his voice, felt nothing but his hand surrounding hers as she died. She put her arm around his neck and moved her mouth to his ear before she whispered the words she knew would be her last.
"Thank you. You better live happily with your love, for me. For you." Then she felt a final jolt in her chest and suddenly everything intensified and all she could hear was a loud BEEEEEEP that never ended and voices coming through and then her father's face and the planet that birthed her were the last things she saw as it all faded out.
But at least she got her wish.

Android App Video Review: ZombieSmash
ZombieSmash is an excellent and creative kind of castle defense game from Zynga. It's a throwback to an older kind of castle defense that you just don't see around anymore. It makes use of great art along with hilarious and inventive game mechanics to keep things appealing. There are plenty of extra modes to enjoy, fun side features to play with, and upgrades to purchase. This is definitely one of the better Zynga titles around.
So it's up to you to defend a single survivor of the zombie apocalypse from the ravenous undead hordes. You do this as something of a god, reaching down and physically stopping the zombies. You do this by simply touching them, and you can toss them about or smash them repeatedly into the ground, just like everyone's favorite scene from Marvel's The Avengers. As you're doing this, you'll collect various defensive weapons and stars. Stars are used to upgrade these defensive weapons, which include wrecking balls, grenades, giant boulders, deadly windmills, liquid nitrogen, mines and much more. The game is very random, creative, and totally over the top the like that.
Each level takes place on a different day of the month. As the days go by, more deadly and clever zombies will enter the fray, changing the dynamics quite a bit. There are only two different areas which you defend for a month, one being a farm in the middle of nowhere, and the other being a prison in the middle of a city. Both maps look great, but offer mostly visual differences and not much else. At the end of each night, you can take a snapshot of your final kill in slow motion and share it to Facebook or Twitter. It wouldn't be a Zynga game without some kind of social media support.
As I said, the visuals, music and sound are all top notch. If you get bored of the main levels, you can play in the sandbox mode or endless mode for some variety. You don't really see these kinds of castle defense games anymore. I remember them being very popular on the Flash game scene, with you using your mouse to endlessly thrown armies away from your castle. It's a refreshing game experience, and it's a lot of fun. Best of all, ZombieSmash is available for only one dollar. I definitely recommend it to anyone looking to brutally and violently kill some time.

Are you a vendor looking for contracting opportunities or a current CBO vendor wondering how to submit an invoice? You'll find answers to some frequently asked questions below.
CBO's purchases typically include the following:
CBO purchases most items by either issuing competitive requests for quotations or ordering from General Services Administration (GSA) schedules. The majority of CBO's acquisitions are conducted using streamlined procedures. Most competitive acquisitions estimated to cost $100,000 or more are advertised through FedBizOpps.
All requests for proposals (RFPs) and requests for quotes (RFQs) are issued electronically, either by e-mail directly to vendors, through GSA Advantage and GSA e-Buy, or via FedBizOpps.
The delivery of mail and packages can be delayed by two weeks or longer because of screening procedures. Therefore, CBO recommends that you submit offers by e-mail to email@example.com or by fax to (202) 226-2714. Please remember to check the specific requirements of the solicitation to which you are responding (for such things as evaluation factors and the need for samples).
CBO's standard terms and conditions apply to all of its acquisitions, including those made with CBO purchase cards. Depending on the estimated dollar amount of the acquisition and the specific requirements, additional clauses and provisions may be included. You may also be asked to sign a nondisclosure agreement.
CBO must have your financial information prior to awarding a purchase order or contract. CBO uses the financial information in the Central Contractor Registration (CCR) database as its primary source. If your company is not registered with CCR, CBO asks that you complete a vendor survey form. Once the financial information is entered in CBO's payment system, you must notify CBO of any changes. CBO does NOT receive automatic updates from the CCR database.
CBO provides invoice forms for Consultants/Panel Members and Paper Reviews as a courtesy to streamline payments for certain services.
CBO does not have a required form or format for invoices against purchase orders or contracts. Contract invoices must contain the following information, at a minimum:
You may request reimbursement for travel only if travel costs were approved in advance and specifically included in the purchase order or contract or other authorizing document. Travel reimbursement rates will be specified in the contract.
Before proceeding to the loading dock or the street-level delivery site for the Ford House Office Building on Virginia Avenue, SW, all delivery vehicles (except those of the U.S. Postal Service) are required to report to the U.S. Capitol Police's Off-Site Delivery Center for inspection:
Off-Site Delivery Center
4700 Shepherd Parkway, SW
Washington, DC
No deliveries will be accepted unless the vehicles have been processed at the Off-Site Delivery Center. The center's hours of operation are from 5:00 a.m. to 2:00 p.m., Monday through Friday.
In order to gain access to the loading docks or loading sites in the U.S. Capitol complex, delivery companies are required to have a letter on file with the U.S. Capitol Police. The letter must be on company letterhead accompanied by the signature of the owner, president, or manager. The names of all persons requesting access should be typed or printed in alphabetical order. Requests for access should contain the following information:
This information must be provided to:
United States Capitol Police
Off-Site Inspection
(202) 226-0905
Fax: (202) 226-0571
CBO recommends that the required information be provided to the U.S. Capitol Police prior to an anticipated delivery and that a copy of the company letter requesting access be included with the shipping manifest. Requests for access must be renewed three times per year: April 30, August 31, and December 31. Any questions can be directed to the Operations Division of the U.S. Capitol Police at the telephone number listed above.
CBO is a legislative branch agency and not subject to the Federal Acquisition Regulation (FAR). However, CBO is subject to some of the same procurement and procurement-related legislation applicable to the executive branch. Some of the relevant laws are these:
That is not an exhaustive list; each acquisition contains clauses and provisions specific to its requirements. The terms and provisions of any procurement undertaken by CBO shall comply with Federal laws, including with regard to indemnification by the government, automatic renewal, governing law, and venue. Clauses that require indemnification by the government and automatic renewal can violate the Antideficiency Act; the former could obligate the government to make payments of unspecified amounts, and the latter could obligate the government to make payments for a fiscal year for which no appropriation exists. The law that applies to the government and the venue in which disputes with the government will be resolved are two aspects of sovereign immunity. Without an act of Congress, CBO is not authorized to waive sovereign immunity on behalf of the U.S. government.
Although not subject to the FAR, CBO uses best business practices of the FAR to develop many of its acquisition processes. Therefore, CBO's procurements are similar in appearance and procedure to other government contracts. For example, the Commercial Item Format may be used for supplies and services, and, as mentioned, most procurements estimated to exceed $100,000 are advertised at FedBizOpps.
Don't see your question? Contact our acquisitions office.

Suspect in Capitol One Bank Branch Robbery Arrested
|FBI New Orleans May 15, 2013
NEW ORLEANS—Today, the FBI's Violent Crime Task Force, in partnership with the Jefferson Parish Sheriff's Office Robbery Unit, arrested Ronald Leach, wanted for yesterday's robbery of the Marrero branch of Capitol One Bank, located at 4601 West Bank Expressway. Leach was arrested at approximately 2:00 p.m. today without incident at the corner of Dauphine and Toulouse in the French Quarter.

He will be booked into the St. Bernard Jail and have his initial appearance tomorrow in front of a Federal Magistrate Judge.

Capt. Lakia: a War Hero Who Singlehandedly Killed 2 Terrorists
Captain Ezra Lakia, who was seriously wounded Tuesday in a Lebanese Army sniper ambush, received a Divisional Commander Citation from the Commander of Division 162 in 2002, for an act of bravery during Operation Defensive Shield.
On Tuesday, July 23, 2002 (14 Av 5762), a platoon from Haruv Battalion was sent to look for terrorists, one week after a horrific terror attack on a passenger bus near Emanuel that killed nine. Then-Lieutenant Lakia commanded the force.
Two terrorists were waiting in ambush, and when the soldiers were 50 meters away from them, they opened fire. Lt. Lakia gave an order to open fire and then charged at the two terrorists himself, killing them both.
He received the Divisional Commander Citation for professionalism, leadership and courage.

abusive he will ignore my existence or
Resolved Question:
My husband is emotionally abusive he will either ignore my existence or show nasty behavior. I was really mad at my 20 year old son today. He said it was not right that I didn't pick up the phone when dad called from the store to see what we need. My son was the one who called him back. I told him it was the right decision for me not to pick up the phone. He thought that the phone call was benign. I said it was manipulating because I feel that my husband tries to look like a supportive caring husband when he otherwise treats me badly. Both of my kids accused me of seeing him always acting with badness with everything he does. It is possible that the phone call was benign but when I get mostly bad treatment, why would I trust it? I told the boys that his behavior towards me is even worse when they are not around. My older boy said he thought that was a good thing that he wasn't treating me as bad in front of him. He also told me that Dad doesn't talk badly about me. However he treats me badly even in front of the kids and although he doesn't talk badly about me he treats me badly. It is facade, and I was very angry at the boys for talking like this. They have knowledge that he doesn't treat me kindly, but the are blinded so many things in my opinion

Hi there, welcome to Just Answer. I will try and help you with your question.
I'm sorry to hear that you had an argument with your son over your husband, it can be hard sometimes for kids to see things objectively as their loyalties lie with the both of you and this can make things very hard for them. Sometimes, like you say, your husband may well be mean or unkind towards you and because they can't see it first hand, they struggle to accept such behavior exists towards you. It may not be that they are brainwashed but it might be that they struggle to take sides and split loyalties makes it hard for them.
You're right in that you do not deserve to be treated with abusive words and hence, not picking up the phone was your best defence but the kids may not see it this way. You have to do the right thing for you and your self worth - this is most important as otherwise you run risk of him hurting you over and over. You have to hold your ground and perhaps the kids will begin to see how hurtful your husband can be towards you. (If they don't already know it). You don't deserve to take abusive behavior and should not tolerate it hence, this seems to have been your way of not accepting it and your way or reaction was to not pick up the phone - which is totally understandable under the circumstances.
I hope this is helping, please do come back to me for further assistance and support if you need it, I'd rather support you as much as possible and receive a positive rating and I'd be more than happy to continue supporting you until you feel satisfied.
If I have answered your question, kindly rate my service positively so I may be credited for my time. If you choose to rate me anything less than positive, please do come back to me and I will clarify further or support your query further. Your question will not close and I will continue to support your question. Bonuses are always appreciated.
Kindest Regards, Karin

Thank you.
the problem is they were defending him.
Theu were either u able or unwilling to see the depths of it.
No my husband doesn't talk bad about me to the kids but he treats me bad in front of them.
is he trying to say that I'm talking bad about his father and that's what makes me the wrong one?
and then my other son age 18 said he doesn't believe dad has a personality disorder as my psychologist suggested.
it felt like they were defending him as the abuser.

and what about the statement he doesn't talk bad about me. what's the difference since he treat me bad in front of them?when he made that statement I thought he was blinded by dads manipulation. A facade

Hi there,
I see what you mean, thank you for the additional information. They probably are to some degree blinded by their dad's manipulative behaviors and this can be frustrating, lonely and difficult for you to deal with.
Treating you badly in front of them is far worse. This potentially is modeling bad behavior to your boys (that its okay to behave this way, when we know it is most certainly not okay). I'm sure your kids are aware that it isn't acceptable but they seem stuck in a place that makes them not accept what's really going on here. (It might just be their way of dealing with it/ or not dealing with it as the situation seems to demonstrate).
The fact is that no matter how you look at this, your husband is disrespectful towards you and that is not okay. You hold your ground, but encourage the kids to try to understand how it feels for you - the way your husband is and how it leaves you feeling. Ask them to imagine if that was their own daughter being treated in this way or a best friends mother- how might they feel if they observed it in another family home..?
Dad's manipulation may be quite strong here but you can only do your best to encourage them to show empathy towards you.
I truly hope that they will one day wake up and see this more objectively for their own sakes.
My very best wishes to you,
Karin Samms, Counselor

I tried as you suggested however he didn't want to hear anything he became very uncomfortable.
Karin Samms
replied 3 years ago.
Hi D,
Your son became uncomfortable? It is not something that will happen instantly, take some time to express your message to the boys. Gradually without them feeling 'cornered' might work better than to address them straight away as your son may be feeling quite defensive right now.
Give it some time D, and hope that they will understand from your perspective.
My best wishes,

People change history every day. Some changes are more prominent, but we can feel the resonance of the legacies that those people left. Many look up to these people and admire them. However, there is one person that struck the hearts of many and left an impact on our society/economy. This person was neither rich nor well-educated to the point that if he was born in today's society, he might be looked down upon. This person was César Estrada Chávez, whose work in life has affected people on the other side of the earth. During his lifetime, many people thought of just getting through their days. They worked and toiled in their jobs, hard-pressed just to survive. But Chávez was able to see a bigger picture, something that included every man, woman and child. He saw a society that must be improved and, despite having faced opponents that were larger and more terrifying, took the stand to do something about it. With unions, teamwork, and a sense of equality and tranquility, he fought for justice for all peoples. His justice was not "blind", but something that helped shape our country today.
When César Chávez was born, he did not just materialize from the sky as some mighty being and waltz in with a perfect life. He had his own problems as well. Concerned more with his family's farm than education, he only graduated eighth grade. In fact, he did not like his schooling very much. But in his later years, he had realized the importance of having a good education and urged many to not follow what he did. Knowing society, the government, and discovering what you believe in is part of education. Learning things new to you and using your skills – whether it be math, art or others – to help those in need is something that everyone should learn with the help of a good mentor. In my case, I know that education will help me unearth my potential.
Chávez is well known for his impact on helping bring social justice to the backbone of this country. Farm workers and those of "minor ethnicities" everywhere were undermined, swindled by those higher on the social ladder, and deprived of many basic rights. He represented the disenfranchised, and knew how it felt not to have a voice in the very homeland he lived in. However, by protesting and joining/creating unions, he helped give people a chance to better their lives. Today, immigrants and natives alike are inspired by him. I see people everyday working so hard in jobs that, if not for Chávez, would be paying below minimum wage. He was able to show how jobs, such as farm work, were massively important to society and should not be overlooked. After all, jobs are like a network of nerves that help other fields and people – such as how the criminal force works both with the medical and law field and how farming is linked to big-name food enterprises.
With the union's help, he improved numerous jobs either directly or indirectly. A union, to me, is like a choir. It has all sorts of voices and opinions but only one goal: to achieve harmony. In school, unions are like clubs. Right now, I am in a club that promotes global awareness. We all have different views on it, but we all still want to help out. Without the cooperation of everyone in the club, everything would fall apart, just like a union would. Because there were people who wanted a better life, Chávez organized the United Farm Workers of America. He united many people to sing the same song. The union helped to create fair wages, good working conditions, medical benefits, and more. This in turn empowered the term of "America is the Land of Opportunity". If not for Chávez and the unions, many families, including mine, would not have moved to America and would still be struggling.
Some people say that for others to realize things, they usually need a good "slap in the face". Chávez took the opposite route. For centuries, nations have been solving problems through violence, because in the end, many problems often resort to that. But with César Chávez, his words alone were the only artillery he needed. His army was composed of the teamwork of others who were lured by his passion for equality. He showed the world that it isn't needed to bring out the big guns. His methods of protesting, rallying, boycotting and fasting were enough alone to change a country. If we try to sort problems out non-violently, we could see things from a whole different view. In the year 2008, we saw the impact of gay marriage among America's citizens; their protest changed minds around the world and sparked others to stray out of their boundaries. Words, after all, can be more effective than bullets. Behind a podium with a speaker, his voice, and the will of many people, César Chávez was a force to be reckoned with.
Alone, Chávez could not have done everything. Cooperation, teamwork, collaboration and service to others – with these, Chávez gave people another chance. Dedicated to the people, he said this, "Being of service is not enough. You must become a servant of the people." I have a brother-in-law who follows by this. He runs a business that cares for the elderly. In his homeland, the elderly are often taken care of by their families, but in America, it is much more difficult because so many people are more focused on pursuing their own dreams. Even though his co-workers have problems, they still try to work together and stick to the mission of caring for these people. They want to make the community aware. They try to spread the compassion of caring for these people because it is not enough to just care for them, but to be like a personal friend to them. Without compassion, they cannot do their job properly. Without compassion, Chávez could not have made his community aware of the social injustice. Without personal touch, the business and the union would have fallen.
César E. Chávez has inspired generations of people to work for what they believe in. More people now are speaking up to be heard. For many, he was the epitome of the common man because he represented many problems in society and tried to fight them. But what really strikes through the heart of people was that he was just the average man – nothing more and nothing less. And yet he will be remembered in the minds of many.
Every child deserves a chance to learn and no child succeeds alone.

Driveway by design
Three Kettering students make their mark on curb service.
It was an idea born in Communication 101. Three Kettering students researched and presented an idea to better serve the campus community. The notion is reality now and has changed a little bit of Flint real estate.
Students Jeff DeWitt, Josh Nelson and Tim Roelens needed to research and create a presentation for Lecturer Gary Erwin's Communication 101 class. After their first two ideas stumbled, the students focused on a problem in Kettering's Parking Lot #1, which is a raised parking area behind the Academic Building with space for around 60 vehicles.
"I park there everyday," said DeWitt, a sophomore from Davison, who is majoring in Mechanical Engineering - Manufacturing. "I was having problems parking one day and the project idea just went from there."
The students proposed that a new driveway be added on the Chevrolet Avenue side of Lot #1. That parking area has had only one outlet - onto Dupont Street -- for decades.
So the students pursued the idea with Pat Engle, Kettering's director of Physical Plant. "I asked them to go to the city and research the idea," Engle said. "When students have ideas like this, I ask them to invest some time and investigation in it. It makes it more real to them and is a better teaching tool." And Engle gave them a little "carrot" for their efforts -- Parking Lot #1 was scheduled to be redone, anyway.
Off to the city of Flint the students went. They learned that city officials had denied a request for a driveway onto Chevrolet Avenue years ago, back when traffic flowed heavy to the factories called "Chevy in the Hole." Those factories are long gone now, with most traffic on Chevrolet Avenue related to Kettering or the neighborhood.
With that knowledge in hand, the students proposed a curb cut on Chevrolet and the addition of a driveway. Plans were drawn and the students presented their final design in their Communication 101 class. Erwin, the instructor, invited Engle to view the end product during the end-of-term presentations.
"I think it's great that students want to find a way to better the campus," Engle said. "I was thrilled that I could combine their idea with the ongoing project to replace the parking lot in Lot #1. I credit the instructor, Gary Erwin, with letting the students dream, but keeping their feet on the ground."
The $110,000 construction and asphalt project has been underway this spring and will soon provide 56 renovated parking spaces for the convenience of the Kettering community. Users will enter on Dupont Street and exit on Chevrolet Avenue. The parking lot is scheduled to reopen in early August.
"I like knowing our idea went through," said Roelens, a sophomore from Port Huron, majoring in Mechanical Engineering.
"It was just a good idea that came through," added Nelson, a freshman from St. Joe majoring in Mechanical Engineering.
"It feels like you made an impression at a University," DeWitt added, joking, "maybe they should give us a plaque!"

Paul White discovers a sensibly priced CD recorder capable of handling any type of recording session without throwing a tantrum.
The Fostex CR300 is a 2U, rackmountable CD-R recorder, based on the same Pioneer mechanism as the HHB CDR850 reviewed in the May issue of Sound On Sound, and can write to both CD-R and CD-RW discs. However, HHB claim that their machine is built especially for them, so there may be small differences, other than the very obvious one of colour. Either way, the CR300 is worthy of special attention, because it is one of the few sub-£1000 CD-R machines able to handle silences in a satisfactory manner. If this doesn't ring any bells with you, let me explain.
A number of low- and medium-cost CD-R recorders use a silence-detecting system to determine when the recording should end, ostensibly to prevent you filling the last few minutes of the disc with recorded silence if you happen to be out of the room. Unfortunately, many of these recorders don't allow you to adjust the length of silence that is recognised as an end signal, and what's more, the threshold that decides what is signal and what is silence is often fixed at a level higher than that of some of the quieter sections in classical music. In machines where this function can't be disabled, the outcome is that some pieces of music are quite impossible to record -- the CD-R machine simply switches off. Possible casualties are tracks with deliberately long gaps between them, tracks with long, quiet sustained last notes, classical pieces with low-level passages and so on.
Wisely, the designers of the Fostex CR300 allow the user to adjust the threshold level below which silence is deemed to exist, and for those occasions where gaps of longer than 10 seconds are necessary, you can switch off the automatic system, set your alarm clock (as I actually do when I'm making CDs), and press the Stop button manually as soon as the last track has finished.
It's not purple.
Excellent range of interface options.
Good recording quality.
Sensible handling of pauses and long silences.
It's not purple.
Manual isn't quite as to-the-point as it could be.
No audio delay to save you having to move DAT start IDs.
At the price, this is an excellent CD recorder that won't embarass you on awkward sessions where you have to deal with long periods of silence or very low-level music.
The rear panel sports a fine array of connectors, with a choice of AES-EBU, S/PDIF co-axial and S/PDIF optical digital inputs, and both flavours of S/PDIF digital output. Analogue ins and outs are on both phonos and balanced XLRs. There is an 8-pin DIN socket for connecting a wired remote control, though a wireless remote control is provided as standard. The power supply automatically adjusts to mains voltages between 120 and 230V at a line frequency of 50 to 60Hz.
The CR300's front panel is clearly set out around a central disc drawer and display, with slightly larger buttons being used for the main transport controls. Source selection is via a simple rotary knob rather than an obscure menu, and a large knob provides input level control for analogue sources. The fluorescent display includes a signal level bar-graph meter and an alphanumeric section to show track numbers, times, setup information and so on. There's also a record level margin readout which shows the unused headroom for both channels independently.
The infra-red remote control duplicates the main transport controls' transport/track access functions and, as is often the case, provides a number of programmable playback functions that can't be set up from the front panel, including fading levels up and down and programming a new playback track order.
Recording Modes
The Fostex CR300 has five distinct recording modes, four of which are designed for use with digital sources and one with analogue sources. When recording analogue sources, track IDs may be entered manually, or they may be triggered by a signal exceeding the user threshold level following a pause between tracks. Of course automatic IDs of this kind will inevitably be recorded slightly late, especially on songs that have a fade-in, so this mode isn't recommended for creating masters. Though entering the track IDs in real time requires concentration, it is generally safer than using auto ID mode.
An important part of the machine's operation is the Digital Synchro function, which can be used when recording from DAT, CD or other consumer digital sources with embedded ID information. Pressing the button once means recording will stop when the track ID for the next track is read, whereas pressing it twice records a whole album, automatically inserting the track IDs based on the source DAT, CD, DCC or Minidisc track IDs. This doesn't work when using the AES-EBU input, however, as this interface doesn't carry track IDs.
The other two alternatives are to have the machine finalise the disc automatically after recording all tracks in digital input mode, or to allow manual recording from a digital input. In this latter mode, recording is started manually (much like a tape recorder) and track IDs may be set to enter automatically based on signal level and track gaps or they can be added manually in real time.
CD-RWs can be recorded and played back on the machine, but most domestic CD players can't play CD-RW discs, which means their uses are limited. Once a disc is recorded, it may be erased either a track at a time starting with the last track recorded, or erased completely. It's also possible to erase just the table of contents on a finalised disc, which may be necessary if you want to erase a track or two and then record some new ones.
Finally, both CD-Rs and CD-RWs can be made with either no SCMS protection, copying limited to one generation or copying prohibited altogether.
In Use
Despite a few ambiguous sections in the manual, the CR300 is generally straightforward to operate. For serious recording from a DAT source, you should reposition your DAT start IDs a second or so before the actual tracks start. The auto-stop delay setting can be set to immediate, 10 seconds or manual, while the threshold setting can be set to anywhere between -36dB and -66dB, so even quiet classical music isn't usually a problem, even in automatic mode. In the worst case, you can select the manual stop option.
Digital copies made on the CR300 were subjectively indistinguishable from the source material, regardless of whether the sample-rate converter was needed, and the playback quality was also comparable with a decent domestic hi-fi CD player.
I tested the A-D converters using a high-quality analogue source, and again, the subjective quality was so close to that of a digital recording as to be indistinguishable. Once the disc is full, it must be Finalised to build a table of contents, which takes around four minutes. Most machines require you to press Finalise followed by Record, but just to be different, this one required Finalise and then Pause to get it under way.
In most respects, the Fostex CR300 is a straightforward CD recorder that just happens to have a better than usual array of input and output options. It's a neat, efficient machine that does the job required of it. There's not a lot to choose in price between the HHB and Fostex machines (both are very attractive) and from what I can tell, the essential facilities are identical. It's really down to whether your studio decor goes best with beige or purple!

CLEVELAND — The Indians activated Zach McAllister from the disabled list Wednesday, designating left-handed reliever Josh Outman for assignment.
McAllister, who has been sidelined since May 22 with a lower-back strain, was expected to be added to the 25-man roster today, but with Cleveland's bullpen taxed, he was activated in case he was needed in relief Wednesday.
It didn't end up mattering, however, since the game was rained out.
"If something fluky happens, we protect ourselves without making four moves," manager Terry Francona said prior to the rainout.
With the emergence of left-hander Kyle Crockett (1.29 over six games), Outman had become obsolete. The Indians already have another situational left-hander — Marc Rzepczysnki — in the bullpen. They didn't need three.
"We think Crockett's good and we intend to use him in leverage situations with Zep, so that kind of changed Outman's role," Francona said.
Outman (4-0, 3.28 ERA, 16 walks in 31 games) might have been able to keep his job had he performed better against right-handed hitters. Righties hit .295 (13-for-44) off him, while lefties were at .180 (9-for-50).
Outman, 29, was acquired in an offseason trade with the Rockies for outfielder Drew Stubbs. He avoided arbitration by a signing a one-year contract worth $1.25 million on Jan. 15. He could rejoin the organization should he clear waivers and accept an assignment with Triple-A Columbus.
McAllister has made three minor league rehab appearances. He began the season 3-0 with a 2.28 ERA in his first four starts, but has struggled since, going 3-4 with a 5.89 ERA in 10 starts overall.
Central shakeup
It's been a tight Central Division race for much of the first two-plus months of the season — the first-place Royals led the second-place Tigers by a half game, and the Indians by three games through Tuesday. Still, Francona isn't willing to predict it will stay that way.
"There's so many ups and downs that you don't know. It's a long year," he said. "I will say this, I think the Royals are good. They're a very tough team to play. They have good starting pitching, they have a very good bullpen, they have a very good lineup, they're athletic, they catch the ball and they run. That pretty much sums it up."
Kansas City's rotation entered Wednesday ranked fifth in the American League with a 3.77 ERA, while the Royals' bullpen was sixth at 3.69. KC's .262 team batting average ranked fourth in the AL.
Minor details
- Double-A Akron's Tyler Naquin saw his hitting streak come to an end at 17 games Tuesday. During the streak, Cleveland's first-round draft pick in 2012 hit .431 with seven extra-base hits, eight RBIs and 16 runs.
- Columbus' Vinnie Pestano entered Wednesday having pitched 13 consecutive scoreless innings since May 18. Pestano was 2-3 with a 1.78 ERA and six saves in 25 games for the Clippers.
Roundin' third
- At 25-19 through Tuesday, the Indians had posted the majors' fifth-best record since May 1.
- Cleveland first base coach Sandy Alomar turned 48 Wednesday.

anyone use lye to remove a SERRIOUSLY stuck seatpost? I've tried all of sheldons methods and I've been doing about 4 hours of searching on the net for other methods. I even tried to cut out the post, to no avail.

my wife vetoed the name Merckx for our son...
There was a post in the mechanics forum about a day ago. The guy borrowed a syringe from the school nurse no joke, filled it with ammonia, and squirted it into the seat tube. It worked.
Take it to a machine shop and have them drill it out, very carefully. Some universities (usually ones with good engineering programs and a lot of research going on) have pretty high tech machine shops accurate to the 1/1000".
If they have a bit the right size it can be done..
Broken until next season
hmm already tried the ammonia method.Originally Posted by splytz1
also i think i ovalized the seat tube slightly so boaring it out may not work.
my wife vetoed the name Merckx for our son...
It works. Just make sure to plug that post, and to have a bucket underneath to catch the lye if it drips - lye is NASTY stuff. Mask the paint too.
You might have to cork the post more then once in case it leaks, but the effort is well worth it. The aluminum is eaten up in about a week, if that.
Take care,

I've been thinking about going the lye route myself. Since I haven't handled it before, I was thinking about a controled test with an old beat up post that I have that is not in a bike and putting it in a small container with lye to see how it works.

I'm going to throw this out there, I don't know if it'll work but... There is a product called Peel Away 1 that is basically lye in a gel matrix. It is used to peal multiple thick coats of paint off of about anything and I have used it for that purpose quite a few times. The advantage I can see in this case is that it is not a liquid but a paste and you could fill your seat tube with it and forget it for a day or so. come back and hose it out then neutralize it with some vinegar. Another advantage is that it can be handled briefly without burns (use gloves and have water nearby anyway) and is not fumey. Since it is still lye it should still do the same thing but with a slower reaction time. Last time I bought some it was at a Sherwinn Williams store.
I have'nt had a stuck seat post in a while but has anyone tried CLR?
I have always thought this would be good at corrosion stuck seat posts.
borrowed a syringe from the school nurse? is that the story he's sticking with?Originally Posted by splytz1
There are some things a man needs to believe in wether they're true or not;
After injecting the post with ammonia via a syringe from the campus nurse, I threw it up on a vise and twisted the frame off the post. The guy at Evergreen Bike Shop in East Lansing let me use his vise, and we were able to drop it in about ten min.
I figure the old owner dropped on a 27.0 when the shaft looks like a 26.8. The shaft was all brown with rust, and there was a pile of it underneath the bike when we schwacked it with a rubber mallet. I picked up a nice post and an in the market for a more comfortable seat, but otherwise, I'm back in business."

"Because" -Richard Sachs
My gift is that I am somewhat handy, my curse is that I am somewhat lazy.
Regarding RDs... On my 620 I'm running a 50-45-28 on a 14-28 FW with a 1990-ish Suntour XC Comp. My Voyageur SP was using a 50-46-30 and a 14-28 FW with a Suntour LeTech.
I would guess any post 1984 GS caged Suntour or any long cage Shimano MTB derailleur (MT-60, 62, 730, 732, 735... etc) would work magically.

Maybe this is question that should be in the mechanics area but I just read this from sheldonbrown.com site that has to do with the rear derailleur decision I'm trying to make.
A note about capacity:
Manufacturers have to assume that their customers are clueless, and will expect the chain to have some tension on it even in the bad gears where the chain is using small chainrings with small rear sprockets. Thus, the rated chain-wrap capacity is very conservative. A competent cyclist who uses the gears properly can generally exceed this by several teeth with no problem.
Maybe I can get away with using my derailleur with 34 capacity with a set up that has a total possibility of 37...if I'm careful not to do silly things?
All comments/opinions are welcome Thank you
Yes, for chain wrap that should not be a problem, as most people only use the largest 1/2 of the cogs with the granny.
There's no such thing as a routine repair.
Don't tell me what "should" be - either it is, it isn't, or do something about it.
If you think I'm being blunt take it as a compliment - if I thought you were too weak to handle the truth or a strong opinion I would not bother.
Please take the time to post clearly so we can answer quickly. All lowercase and multiple typos makes for a hard read. Thanks!
I'll be changing the seat and making a few light adjustments but other than that, I'm pretty much finished fixing up NOS. The term will never mean the same thing to me again.
Other than the parts I had planned on changing, I added new cables, wheels, freewheel, and rear derailleur. But the good news is, I'm finished for a while.
For the final hoorah, I'll post some before and afters, and again, thanks to all for all the input and help. You may be able to tell I followed some ideas.
PS... Thank you seller for the before pics.

Hey Bruce- That's a beautiful bike.
I know you want to change to a cushy springy seat- but I'd keep a supportive saddle.
Secondly- are the brake levers in a comfortable spot for you? I like having my bars up a little like you have them, but I like having the hood extend out on the same plane as the angle of the bars- yours look like they go up.
Just my personal preference stuff.
It's a fantastic bike- with a whole lot of seriously beautiful componentry on it. Ride it well!!!

Huge experience with the DuoPar..Best shifting rear derailleur if you have a wide spread cog..The only draw back is that it wears out more quickly

I like my hoods to be perpendicular to the angle that my arms come down off of my body so my wrists do not have to twist downwards at my palms and pinch the ulnar nerve in my wrists when gripping the hoods. I have nerve issues with my wrists from years of racing motorcycles off-road and having undiagnosed lyme disease for a number of years which precipitated septic arthritis which presents mostly in my load-bearing joints as well as my wrists. I position my drop-bar brakes up higher than most people do and get a lot of folks comment that my "brake levers are too high." But I don't have them angled quite that much up/back.

I like Treks a whole lot and they don't get much better than your 620, Bruce. Give that Avocet saddle a chance - You may be pleasantly surprised. (They're well regarded by many riders, and my own experience bears that out).
- Auchen
Thanks all. Appreciate the suggestions and the kind words. The handlebar position is work in process, and they do look pretty high in those pics so some adjustment may be coming. Looking forward to the weather break to really start the season and ride this bike.
auchencrow, thank you. I road on an Avocet for many years, but it was long ago and I don't remember everything but I do remember the "break-in" period. Once I'm broken in, I'll give it a go this coming season.
Speaking of broke, more cash flying away on nos, (and I didn't noticed the front tire issue when it was initially mounted as I only put about 40 psi in them) the replacement tires are 1-1/4", and the tire tip is touching the fork top by 0.00001" or something like that. So to remedy this, I've now have a replacement 1-1/8" tire for the front on order with bells of cha-ching playing in the background.
Anyone else having fork/tire close encounters?
Maybe the tires are just larger/puffier than back in the day?
Regarding your tires- my 78/79 Trek 736 will take Pasela 28s, but not 32s- they drag on the fork crown and brake bridge. I've read that Paselas run large- at least compared to other tires.
I've probably been the one to ***** the loudest about how bad the DuoPar is. My DuoPar on my 620 gave me problems; not little problems- big, unacceptable problems. Since I've gotten my 720, I have not replaced the DuoPar Titanium, based solely on the experience of JohnDThompson. When I have read about people talking about how GOOD and SMOOTH and magical the DuoPar is... My DuoPar Eco is none of those things. However, I've been SHOCKED as to how smooth operating the DuoPar Titanium is. Like seriously not feeling the chain moving. I've used some of what I've seen as the finest regarded derailleurs- this thing is among them. If this is how DuoPars shift- I understand how they're so well regarded. HOWEVER- they do appear to break.

Sjögren's syndrome is an autoimmune disease best described as a chronic inflammatory process characterised by decreased tear and saliva production. This results in dryness of the eyes and mouth known as the sicca complex (sicca means dry). Dryness of other mucus membranes of the body such as the intestines, lungs and reproductive system (especially the vagina in women) may also occur.
Sjögren's syndrome may occur by itself (known as Primary Sjögren's syndrome) or together with other autoimmune processes such as lupus, Rheumatoid Arthritis or other connective tissue diseases (known as Secondary Sjögren's syndrome).

I'm using Outlook 2010 and exchange account via Office 365. When I'm sending a meeting request few users receives it in plain - scrambled text like:
-----Original Message-----
From: xxxx
Sent: xxxxxxxxxx
To: xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
I've already try to start "defected" Outlook in safe mode - no success. I'm the only one on the exchange, other users are using POP without exchange.
Any idea?
Thank you all for your help.
Thanks for the feedback.
Hi Matjaz,
Thanks for your reply.
Outlook 2003 was designed and built for an environment where servers are maintained locally within an organization and not part of a cloud service. Therefore, it is not recommended to connect Office 365 Exchange Online account to client Outlook 2003 as some features and functionality are not supported. Outlook 2003 cannot provide a better end-user experience when connected to Office 365.
In this situation, I would like to know if the issue happened when send request from Outlook 2010 to Outlook 2010.
Grace Shi
Hi Matjaz Sustersic,
I would like to confirm are the POP accounts also Office 365 users? If so, please check if they can receive the meeting request in Outlook Web App(OWA). Change the connection from POP to Exchange should be able to fix the issue.
If other accounts are not Office 365 users, please try to change the message format in Outlook to see if the issue can be resolved. The issue might be caused by the text format message settings in Outlook, and you change the format from text to HTML, or Rich Text.
Change the message format to HTML, Rich Text, or plain text in Outlook 2003
Change the message format to HTML, Rich Text, or plain text in Outlook 2007
Change the message format to HTML, Rich Text, or plain text in Outlook 2010

Hi Reken Liu
Thank you for you answer.
POP accounts are not on the Office 365 (Exchange), they are on completely different server/domain.
I tried and checked all options about message format:
- checked that all messages are sent as HTML
- checked that message for "defective" user is sent as HTML
Could it be the Outlook version? Because Outlook 2003 clients received corrupted meeting request, Outlook 2010 users received meeting request without problems.
Thank you and BR,
There have a big changes from Outlook 2003 to Outlook 2010. The issue might be a compatible error. To help to narrow down the issue, you can send a meeting request from one of the Outlook 2003 clients, and monitor if other Outlook 2003 can receive the request normally.
I am wiriting to follow up on my previous reply, and I would like to know the status of the issue. Is there any update from your side?
Thanks,Reken Liu
Hi Reken,
I didn't have chance to test Outlook 2003 – Outlook 2003 clients.
Today I tested:
1. Outlook 2010 (Exchange user) to Outlook 2003 (POP user). Result: Outlook 2003 received corrupted meeting request.
2. Outlook 2003 (POP user) to Outlook 2010 (Exchange user). Result: Outlook 2010 received meeting request without any errors, but when this Outlook 2010 confirmed and send meeting confirmation, Outlook 2003 received corrupted version of meeting confirmation.
Any suggestion?
Thank you and br,
Hi Grace Shi,
Thanks for you reply.
If I send meeting request from Outlook 2010 (Exchange) to Outlook 2010 (POP) it works fine. So that means than Office 365 users can not send meeting requests to Outlook 2003 users? What about Outlook 2007?
Matjaz Sustersic
According to the software requirements for Office 365, Outlook 2007 SP2 or above versions are fully supported. It should work in Outlook 2007. If not, please update Outlook 2007 to SP2.
Is there any other assistance needed here?
Hi Reken Liu,
I see now, that Office 2003 isn't supported by Office 365, so obviously that's why Office 2003 can't receive meeting requests from Outlook 2007 or 2010. I'm I right? It there any workaround?
Apologize for the delay on response. Just received message that we will now offer support for Office 365 customers connecting to Outlook 2003 via POP or IMAP. You can try to send a meeting request from Outlook 2010 to test if it works now.
Have you tested it and does the meeting request work well in Outlook 2003 now?
Sorry for my late reply, I was absent for a while. The problem persists. Below you can see received message on a computer with Microsoft Office 2003.

It seems that the message was sent from an Office 365 mail account to an external mail account. Is your Outlook 2003 connecting to none Office 365 mailbox now? Please confirm this. If so, I think the result is normal. Other mail system may not be able to recognize the meeting format of Exchange messages.
The original message was sent from Outlook 2010 with Office 365 mail account to Outlook 2003 with regular non-exchange mail account.
So that means that Outlook 2003 can not receive meeting requests from exchange mail users / Office 365 users?

I set out to try MTB racing this year by competing (ha!) in the GSC series for my LBS sponsored team, Oconee Outfitters. The carrot that goes with this stick is that after racing in 6 of the 8 series races, I can buy a new bike at a large discount. Today I completed my 5th race. I will be out of town when the next race runs, so my final race will be the season finale in Macon on August 5th.
Today's race was at Flat Rock Park outside Columbus Georgia. I left home at 5:45 and drove 2-1/2 hours to the race. My race started at 9:30. By the time I got registered and did about a half hour of warm up, it was well into the 80s with high humidity. I was well on my way to being sweat-soaked before the race even started. I met the guy I've been finishing just ahead of in every race. One of very few older than me in the 40+ beginners class. He is 61 and a heck of a nice guy..
After a group start with a tight turn around a tree and a hundred yard sprint across a flat lawn, we went into the woods for a 2 mile run through very tight trails with no chance to pass. I was about mid pack going into the woods and got stuck behind several slow riders. There were several bottlenecks before we finally came out into more open ground where there was room to pass. The worst part is that the tight twisty sections like that are my strength. I need to make time in those sections. Slow and go riding in all that traffic is more tiring than going faster in a smooth flow. Although the course was mostly flat, I still lose time to other racers on even small climbs like we had today. When we went back into the woods again I had a clearer trail and was able to get into a rhythm through the tight turns, short drops and rises. Then came the one technical section of the course, a fairly steep downhill and then uphill with switchback turns through big rocks. People were falling all over the place. I lost momentum going in and had to run the bike to get through quickly. By then, the heat and humidity started getting to me and I had to take it easy for the next couple of miles to recover. By the time I was able to run hard again, I had lost a lot of ground. Then my back started hurting and I had to stop and stretch a couple of times so I could go on. I finished strong, but once again I was in the last quarter of the riders in my class. I was 18th of 23. My new friend finally beat me, by 3 minutes despite going over the handlebars in the rocky section. Not bad for a guy 10 years older than me.
I'm really looking forward to using my team bike purchase when I can scrounge up the bucks, I'm earning it. I've already decided that my first year of racing will also be my last. I have enjoyed being in the races, but it is just not really my thing. It hurts my back and it is taking a big toll on my road mileage. I have missed a few of my favorite road rides because I either had a race that day or had to rest for one the next day. I have not done a century ride all year.
